The publication of the fact that the train

might att ack or attempt to wreck tee train,
and necessitateo increased vigilance.
The result vas the less of many hours of

NV YoRx, August 1h-R G. Dun 4 Car
Weekly Review of Trade says:
Crop reports are not quite up to expecta-
tons, ana are construed a indicating q def
cheney in the supply of corn and oats. while
any possible deficiency in wheat and cotton
will b moro than met By the surplus stock.
But prices are unchanged. The great indus
tries arc all doing we'll excepting the iron
manufacturing industries The iron output
to August was Is, 1876 tons weekly, against
16S.151 to July l, but the stocks unsold, new
ertheless, increased 1900 tons during July,
and on August exceeded million tons
The southern pig iron is pressed for sale
and some quotations are lower than ever.
But the resumption of manufacture by the
Western Iron works, which settled their con-
troversies with the men, will make a great
change in the situation, at once increasing
the output of pig iron, but probably demand
still more. Manufactured iron and steel
have been In active demand, nearly all tho
works In operation being crowded with Or
ders. But steel rails are dull a. ever, while
only 70,0Oo tons have boon sold for the year
this far. Orders on hand will hardly carry
the eastern mills beyond September Is
coal. But in the textile industry the utmost
activity prevails. Manufactures are buying
wool freely. Boot and shoe men are still
pressed to the utmost. The particular fea-
ture of the week has been the rising of bread
stuffs, cents on corn and Y Of . cent on
oats, while wheat has declined of q cent,
with sales Of only IL, 0OO, 900 bushelA The
western receipte were $780, 900 bushels in
four days, and the Atlantic exports 2, 3O9, 600
bushels. Pork advanced 70 cents per barrel
and coffee u, but cotton fell q, though the
exports are larger than year ago, as the
crop reports grow moro favorable. It should
not be forgotten that if the exports of pro-
ducts. which for two weeks have been 1856
per cent. lower at New York than last year,
should be restricted by the advances in prices
the overflow of gold would be likely to CON-
tinue end before long to affect the specula-
tive market.
Imports continue extraordinarily large at
New York. For five weeks they have been
80 per cent. greater than last year.
The business failures the past week were
1S9, compared with 14 the previous week.
For the corresponding week of last year the
figures we're 81.

BUFFALO, n. y, August 1.-THE strike Of
the Erie 4 Lehigh Valley switchmen is g
serious matter. Riot and incendiarism
mark its tidal wave.
Property belonging to the railroad compa-
ny has been destroyed by iucendiary fires,
men engaged in the peaceful performance
of their duties IN the cOmpany's service have
been assaulted and sent to the hospitals. the
movement of trains has been seriously int ar.
fered with and the lives of innocent persons,
who were In no way connected with the
strike and had not even heard of it, have
been endangered by the derailment of q
passenger train or one of the roads. Such
Is the predIcament.
Eighteen or twenty freight cars, filled with
wool, cotton, hay and various other mer-
chandlse, two passenger coaches and two
watchmen's houses were burned, among the
cars of merchandise.
The fires occurred at places where the fire.
men could not successfully stay the flames
on account of absence of water, besides the
difficulty of access to the fires.
The water tank adjacent to the coal tres
ties was smashed, and an engine taking
water there was wrecked by a string of ten
runaway cars that had been turned loose
from the trestle.
In the yards east of Dingens street fire
ragged among the cars of Merchandise. The
cars DESTROYED were in the midst of great
number Of other cars. The firemen IN
coupled number of cars and removed
hem from danger. 4 dozen or so of cars
we're thrown from the Lehigh tracks and a
similar number from the Erie by misplaced
witches.
The first intimation of anything wrong
vas when the coal cars were set loose and
demolished the water tank. Then the fires
broke out simultaneously. But that was on
IL the beginning. The strikers or their SYM
pathlzers have pulled pins, turned switches
and driven of crews. Three men are at
ne hospital badly hurt.
One of the most cowardly things done was
the throwing of switches under passenger
train No. Il at William street. Two passen-
ger coaches were derailed, but nobody was
hart, though many we're badly frightened.
Fifty mel boarded passenger tram No. 3,
diving the employees of. The crew finally
succeeded In getting the train to the station.
The mob took possession of the Seneca street
switches three or four times during the day
ana drove of the signal men.
Two trains of freight cars on sidings IN
Cheektowaga the railroad suburb of Buffalo
were burned.
At l o'clock fire has broken out in three
places in the Lehigh yards again simultane-
ously. The FIRE department seems unable to
Quench it. The Fries New York express
No. Is held two miles out because it cannot
pass. The New York express No. has not
been sent out for the same reason.
2 a. m.-Word has just been received that
a train of forty-two cars on the Erie road.
filed with fine merchandise. a mile west of
Williams street, is now burning fercelv,

south wing of the Huntington refornatory.
occupied by the Consolidated Manufacturing
company, as part of their brush factory
also another three story building used as
carpenter shop, are burned down. The reser-

were 200 BY 50 feet aud three stories high.
There were $50 boys in the reformatory and
every one of them yelled his best all during
the time of the fire.
