The money market of the country pre-
sents no new features since our last review.
The demand is reported light throughout
the East and loan market easy. The oner-
ings Of mercantile paper are said TO be
light and but little money has been taken
for crop moving purposes as yet. The New
York bank statement last Saturday showed
an increase in loans Of s.. 92l .6no; in deposits
of S5lg.3O0. in specie OF 1880, but a de-
crease in legal tenders of 1861, 100, and in
the surplus reserve of $1.64l. i2j, making II
now So, 12J,lJ0 in excess of the . per cent
rule. These figures still show "A great
plethora of money in New York. and it is
in good supply at other Eastern financial
centers. The West, too, is well supplied
with funds. and money is easy, both in
Chicago and st. Louis. Here at Kansas
City the heavy movement of wheat is Civ
ing employment TO some new money, but
very little new mercantile paper is being
offered, and the Cattlemen are making but
few new loans. But, with renewals and the
new grain business. the volume of loans is
holding up very well. Rates steady and a

OF sales here were l0dl2lzc per cwt. higher.

New York, Aug. 1.-THE dry goods market
was active and firm to-day. with opera
tlons on Il more speculative basis than
heretofore and a continued better feeling
existed IN all departments. In all cotton
goods the market is generally strong. There
mas been continued reports of advances in
Woe ana brown sheeting, and other coarse
cotton. The demand for these goods has
been extensive and trading in staple lines
mas been of a declining character. Print
cI0thS continue firm at 2izc for extras,
sellers refused TO sell either spots or fut-
not so heavily as staple cotton. Woolen
goods show a developing market with sales

New York. Aug. 4-The great majority Of
the sales of stocks on the exchange to-day
was made at prices very substantially
above last nights closing. But the market
succumbed in the last half hour to "A sud-
den settling movement induced by profit
taking. The effect was TO wipe out nearly
all the earlier gain in most stocks n
10 leave the average level of the market
but little changed from yesterday. The
sales of all stocks attained an aggregate
Of over $50, ZOO shares. The dealings in the
last half hour were all at lower prices and
the only stocks 10 escape the effect Of the
fall were those not included In the later
dealings. Except for the final decline the
market was almost a repetition OF that OF
yesterday, copiOus purchases being made
Of pretty much every stock IN the list. Very
many sales of odd lots were recorded. re-
fiecting the ventures Of small individual
purchasers through commission houses.
There was not much discrimination shown
in this class OF buying. which embraced
some Of the stocks which have long almost
passed out of the field OF attention on the
exchange. A notable feature of the trad
ing was the heavy selling for foreign ac-
count and the readiness with which these
sales were absorbed and their sentimental
effect disregarded.
