A CRISIS.

Manufacturing and Shipping Gen.
tiers in Great Britain In Serious
Case.-Ship Building Stopped at
Clyde.-West End Factories Going
to the Wall.

LONDON, October 5-The labor outlook in
large manufacturing and ship building CEN
ters of great Britain is very threatening. A
crisis /, probable in the cotton trade that
promises to have more wide spread results
than any previous troubles that have oc-
CURED between masters and operatives, and
IN the ship building trade of Clyde, only one
third of the berths are occupied and no new
orders are in hand. It is said that fifteen
thousand hands, who are employed in vari-
Gus capacities about ths yards, are idle. To
make matters worse, for the employees, tia
masters have now decided to make GeneE-
al reduction in wages.
Rumors have been in circulation for sew
ersl days pas: that q large drapery house In
the West End of London Is hopllessiy IN
vowed. Commenting upon these rumors.
the St. James Gazette says that several great
drapery firms are so.teriug under severe gen.
eral depression. which has affected all ranks
of society. This depression was badly felt
last Christmas time, when some of the larH
est Grapery shops in she West End did not
for days receive a single customer. The
duke of Clarence and Avondale and Princess
May have created demand for the new style
of goods, which Is no sooner produced than
all demand for them was blasted by the
death of the duke and dealers we're LEFT with
miles of nDery on their hands. Greater
houses found it necessary to extend the cred
it of the better dealers in order to prevent
them becoming bankrupt. Unless trade N.
covers by Christmas q collapse Is inevitable.

British Farming,

LONDON, October 1.-The Times has
opened its columns to letter controversy ON
the depression in the wheat market. n. J.
Sutton, a noted agriculturist, furnishes a let
tor in which he claims that If England makes
step toward far trade agriculture, as
the largest English industry ought to be the
first protected. He contends that wheat
growing in England cannot pay the farmer
without protection. Other writer's declare
tina; high rents are still the chief trouble.
A weIl-known radical politician, Mr.. Wren,
contends that England is now unsuitable to
growing wheat and potatoes, compared wi.h
more favored countries. He concludes his
letter by saying that farmers should have re-
course TO dairy produce, and fruit and veg
etable produce and drop the absurd rivalry
in wheat growing In which England's petty
area of 2,25O,OOO acres Is unable to hold q
place. He quotes from Times state
ment that American whea. is of better quail
ity and brings better prices than English.

BIG Freight Business.

CHICAGO, October 5.-Chairman Midgely,
that the southwestern Missouri rver roads
are doing An enormous east bound business.
During the month of September the ship
ments of cattle from Kansas City amounted
to about 5000 car loads, the heaviest move
ment ever known in single month. The
shipments of wheat from Kansas City during
the same PERIOD amounted to upwards of
10000 car loads. All roads were so crowded
with business that they were cramped for
cars with which to I'LL their orders, and it
was largely due to this state of affairs that
east bound freight rates from the Missouri
rlver continue steady.

FAVORABLE
Crop Reports Uniformly Prom
ise Better Crop Outlook.
General Business Large and Healthy
Grain Lower; Hog Products High
er-SpecuIation Confined to Cotton
-WooIen and Leather Industries
Fully Occupied.

NV YoRx. October 3.-R q. Dun 4 Co.'S
Weekly Review of Trade says:
Business continues larger than ever at this
time of year. and the commercial sky Is
without . cloud. Money is everywhere in
ample supply, and collections have rarely
been more generally satisfactory. The out
70 of money from the western centers for
purchases in the country is larger than usual
and a yet there is no embarrassment. The
crop reports are uniformly favorable and
promises distinctly better than it was few
weeks ago. The general business 10 not only
large and healthy, but the outlook for the
coming months are everywhere regarded with
confidence. Speculation in breadstuffs IL
lower, with small transactions. Wheat and
oats are nearly l cent, and corn Is cents
lower. and the receipts of wheat at western
noints have been 1858, 395 bushels in four
days, against exports of only $50, l16 bushels.
Speculation IN cotton has been enormous,
the sales reaching 1.360.OO bales, with an
advance of a quarter during the week in spite
of better receipts and more favorable crop
reports. Hog products are higher: pork IS
cents per barrel; lard So, anu rlbs 25 cents
per 100 pounds. Coffee is stronger, but
oil about cents lower.
Western receipts Of cattle are lie, 600 head,
against IA, 600 for the same week last year.
The outlook in woolens is excellent and
the sales of wool have improved here and at
Philadelphia, where the consumption is
greater than in any oshe- year, through some
concessions in the territories and in Ohio.
Delaine is firm at Boston. At three markets
233, OOO, 600 pounds were sold this year, against
1S9, COO, 900 pounds last year to date. Trade
in knitting goods is heSitating. The boot
and shoe works are pressed to meet their Or
ders. Large sales id pig iron are reported.
All works making structural iron are very
busy, though bar iron is still weak and rails
inactive. Copper is unchanged at ia cents;
tin is hesitatng at 2N.05: lead dull at 4O1I5.
Foreign exchange has risen slightly and
money is advanced to per cent. But no
anxiety is felt. and stocks are shade stronger
than week ago. The demand fer money
at the ives. and south continues smaller than
usual.
The business failures throughout the coun-
try during the last seven d"ys number 2Os,
compared with 211 last week, and go the
~ame week last year.
