foreign commerce of this country were 1t not
for the fact that last years exports were alb
normally large. But another change has also
to be considered which is OF the utmost i'm
portance and which will undoubtedly affect
the value of exports for some months to come.
This is the remarkable fall in prices caused
by the exceptionally large crops of last year
While the foreign demand for American prod
ucts was extraordinary. the supplies OF last
wear were even greater so that enormous stocks
of wheat and of cotton remained unsold In this
country. and the stocks carried over in other
countries were also unusually large. 10 this
fact mainly is due the remarkable decline IN
nrices this year in comparison with last year.
The average export price of cotton IN the month
n Sentember. 1891, was 9.37 cents per pound.
Int this year only 1888 cents, decline OF more
than cents. The average price OF wheat ex-
ported in September last year was 81 o4.o'
ner bushel. but this year 1t was only SO.'4
cents per bushel. The average price OF OIL
exported in September last year was 90 cents
nor Gallon. but this year only SO cents. There
was also considerable fall in the price OF
cattle, which averaged for September OF last
wear SSS 80, and this year only S6S ~. LII
provisions the change appears TO have Deeh
mainly decrease in quantity, as the average
Drices are slightly higher than year ago
Actually more oil was exported than last year.
hut the decrease in quantity of cotton was
81 900, 900 pounds. Owing to the fall OF
prices. and to that cause alone a decrease OF
something more than. S6,0OO,OOO appears IN
ehe value of exports for the month OF Sep
ember.
It. is rot to be expected that this depression
of prices will continue as great during 'ne
crop year upon which we have entered. "h'le
the foreign demand for breadstuifs VIII uh-
doubtedly be much smaller than 1t was year
ago. the Government report would indica'e
stocl, Of wheat not much exceeding 525, 900
600 bushels, against 612, 100000 bushels last
wear. Tho stock of cotton carried over IN TINS
and other countries is very large but the de-
crease in yield, though as yet not dehh'eE
known. is also large.

The exports Of these articles in ordinary years
constitute not far from two-thirds of the total
exports at this season. Last year the proper
ton was more nearly three-quarters. because
of the extraordinary exports of breadstuifs.
IL will be noticed that in breadstulfs alone de-
cline appears of $l4,157, 900, which is much
the greater part of the total decrease for the
month But in cotton and petroleum. as well
as in provisions some decrease also appears
so that the aggregate decrease in value of OK
ports of these principal classes for the month
of September is SO, 1875, 601, or about 80 per

Some of the Tammany city officials perceive
the necessity of being on their good behavior
at this time. So they have put in estimates for
1893 which are smaller than the amounts al
lowed for their departments this year. They
are entitled to whatever credit such Spartan
virtue deserves. If the people who pay the
taxes think that their burdens will be reduced
in consequence, they will be likely to perceive
their error later on. What the Board of EST
mate is now considering are only the provisional
estimates

1t is not strange that our friends the enemy
find it agreeable 10 run away from these fig
ures. For they are loaded fgures-loadcd with
cogcnt arguments for President Harrison's re-
election which the Democracy cannot meet.
Would the voters be acting the part Of level
headed men if they should say by their ballots
that they desired the discontinuance of the
Republican policy of Protection, under which
the grand and beneicent results for which these
figures stand were brought about? What
could the country make by change of Ad-
minstration? Anything desirable? Mr. Clevc-
land is pledged 10y the platform to which a.
an honorable man he is fully committed to
the maintenance and enforcement OF the propo-
sition that the protection of American labor
and American capital is unconstitutional.
What then, in the event Of his election and
the return of his party to power, would he and
they do? They would endcavor. with rs little
loss of time Is possible. 10 break down the syS-
TEN Of Protection at all points The Democ-
racy for which Mr. Cleveland stands let it
be borne in mind, is essentially different 50
far as its tariff policy is concerned from the
Democracy at any previous stage of its history.
1t used to be friendly to some-not much, but
| some-Protection. Incidentalp Protection was
one of its concessions. But that era has passed.
| Obviously if Protection is unconstitutional,
even an infintcsimal degree Of it cannot be
| t0crated--is an offence against the fundamental
| law Of tho land
| Our Republican friends the State over are
| finding this table Of figures most telling cam
paign document. 1t is 10 the point it is readily
cOmprchended it weighs ton. /, change
desirable? These figures say no. Would
Democratic administration, in all it would i'm
ply, give the country greater degree Of pros
perity than it now enjoys? These figures say
no. Therefore, let them be circulated widely
and pressed home.

Chicago IS putting on its holiday garb in
anticipation of what is 10 take place on Thurs
day and Friday, and is already gorgeously
arrayed in flags, bunting and all the colors of
the rainbow. Many of the buildings are said
to be DECORATED with much taste vast sums of
money beng expended for this purpose. There
is some dissatisfaction over the route laid out
for Fridays parade, but if this was chosen in
order to make the parade secondary affair
as compared with the dedication exercises it
would seem that good judgment rather than
bad had been displayed. New-York had moth

the first place to the exercises on the Fair
grounds, and everybody in that city should be
happy that it can do so.

Stocksa and Bonds

New YORK, Feb. 2O-The stock market
was quiet and narrower than any day dur
ing the last two weeks, while displaying
decided weak tone under pressure to sell
for both sides of the account Coal stocks
were very quiet, firm to strong, but
grangers yielded to the attack because of
reports of probable adverse legislation in
Nebraska. Burlington retired over i per
cent from the opening, with Rock Island
close in attendance.
Prices halted toward the end of the first
hour, but the issue of the bank statement
was the signal for more vigorous assault
on the list and Union Pacific and Changers
in general were made special points Of at
tack All retired materially in the last few
minutes and the market finally closed active
and weak at about the lowest prices of the
day.
Railroad bonds also displayed constantly
diminishing volume of business.
Government bonds dull and steady.
States neglected
