making total equal to 3.126.O00 blu

5 NEW YORK. Aug. l9.-It is only neces-
saly to state that the total sales of stocks
for the two hours of business were 43. 1876

interest i'll the stock market. Before
the bank statement was issued the room
devoted its time to guessing the amount
of the probable gain or loss in the re-
serve; after the exhibit operators were
busy Analysing the report. In the
meantime speculation in stock Ian
guiShed and but few issues showed any
material change for the day. The bank
statement was generally accepted as
favorable, and it contributed to the
firmnesS which characterized the clos
ing transaction. The news of the day
was rather more favorable. La Tou-
raine brought Sl,34S.200 French gold,
and the Etruria was reported down the
bay with 81 $4,000 additional on board.
1t was announced that the Milwaukee
National and the Commercial National
banks. which recently suspended, have
decided to reopen. OF the half
dozen roads which submitted their
traffic statements for the second week
of August, only one, the Louisville Il
Nashville showed decrease. 1t should
be stated that the last named reported
decrease OF $67.4 Still there was

strength, rising to 1881. The general

to dip the wood in this turpentine before
nutting it in the furnace, the object be-
ing to quickly increase the steam pres
sure. The Ocean Spray was supposed
to carry only 100 pounds of steam, but
Davis thought that by putting another
negro on the safety valve" he could run
the pressure up to 200 pounds and dis
lance his rival. In carrying the drip
ping wood to the furnace the track be-
came saturated with the turpentine,
which caught fire from the open fur
mace. The flames quickly reached the
barrel. An attempt was made tn throw

Scott Mats0n was captain on the Ham
nibal City. He was brave and gener-
Gus man, and in this instance these two
qualities made his name famous. Not
withStanding the imminent danger, he
ran his boat alongside the burning one
and rescued every person on board.
Davis. the mate of the burned boat,
was afterwards convicted and sent to
the penitentiary for such gross violation
of the rules of safety. He WAS later
pardOned.

Life of Floating Palace on the

The great Mississippi steamers which
used to run as far as New Orleans, and
the accommodation on board, which was
simply magnificent, had ceased to ply
when the war broke out, but on numer-
Gus occasions was able to avail myself
of the elegant comforts to be found on
board river steamer, says G. A. Sala
in the London Telegraph. The fare on
board the American steamers [ al
ways found plentiful in quantity
and tolerable in quality. still it
must be admitted that there
were many stock jokes current as
to the meagerness of the provisions sup
piled by the steamboat company TO its
guests; and among these was story
about Barnum, who, demanding once a
beefsteak at supper, had handed over
his shoulder by the negro waiter piece
of rather thin and certainly overgrIlled
flesh. which he described as resembling
in form and color an Ethiop's ear

CHICAGO, Aug. 19.-Enormous ex.
port clearances of wheat and an I'm
proved New York bank statement
caused all advance of nc in September
wheat today, sc of which gain was still
adhering to the market at the close.
Corn, oats and provisions were dull, the
latter extremely so. and price changes
were Insignificant.
Wheat at the opening was ss@15c
higher than yesterdays closing, eased
off trifle. and. withlsome fluctuations,
prices further advanced &c, then eased
Off Il trifie, and the closing was steady.
The exports from both coasts of wheat
and flour were l, 100. 900 bu larger than the
preceding week, and 2,310, GOO bu larger
than the corresponding week year
ago. From five ports the ciearances Of
wheat were 100000 bu larger, and of
flour $4,000 bbls larger than the preced-
ing week. The receipts at primary
markets for the week were 350,0O0 bu
smaller than the preceding week, and it
show decrease of about 100000 bu,
against an increase Of 1922, 900 bu the
corresponding week year ago.
Shorts were alarmed at the showing.
and there was more doing than there
has been of late. Realizing sales took
some off the edge of the advance near
the close.
The good cash demand and the up
turn in wheat gave corn some support.
The trading was entirely between put
and call prices, ana no outside business.
The range did not exceed &c.
1t seemed one long yawn in the oats
market, SO dull was the trade. Prices
were confined to &c range, and the
market closed at last nights figures.
Provisions suffered from neglect.
Pork was marked up little, but
there was no business done in it. Lard
opened DC off and scarcely moved after
that. September is ne lower. and Dc
toOer Sc lower than on the day before.
Ribs were in rather better demand. and
at the close were bringing 10c advance
for September and Sc gain for October.
Hog receipts were $4,000 head. which is
considered liberal for the last day of the
week.
Freights were dull, but with offerings
Of vessel room light. Rates remained
steady at nc for wheat and 1c fol corn
