not be scored on this season IN any reg
ular high school contest.
The Wausau Record says, much in
terest is being shown in the work and
twenty candidates are trying for posi-
tions on the eleven. Everything points
to their having strong husky team to
do battle with their opponents. <

Business Outlook as Reported by
Schwartz, Dupee s. Co.
CHICAGO, Ill. Sept. IS, 1897.

CHICAGO, Ill, Sept. 2S, 1897.
Wheat prices still hold finn in spite
of the efforts of the bear element to
depress them.
The temporary success which this
element obtained some time ago when
values were sent down from the dollar
mark to SSd made them confident after
there had been reaction of about ten
cents from that point that another
slump could be manipulated. but thus
far they have failed utterly in their
campaign for 90-cent wheat. What
looked like the elimination of their
efforts occurred today. There was a
strong drive at prices at the opening
and for a time December wheat sold at
90f, but at that point strong people who
have been buying wheat on all the de-
clines began adding to their purchases,
and III a short tine a gain of more than
a cent had bee II made. When the mar
ket closed it was at substantial advance
from the low point, and the signs were
that there would be no slump to-
morrow.
Corn is in Il peculiar condition just
now, but it improved in sympathy with
wheat There is no doubt that at one
time the corn market was overbought,
speculation in that cereal on the bull
side being so general as to include many
weak holders, and the forced liquida-
ton of such lines brought prices to a
lower level than they would naturally
have reached. The reports made to
Schwartz, Dupee & Co. by reliable cor
respondents in the corn belt are that in
many cases there has been injnry to the
crop by frost and drouth, and that at
present prices farmers will not market
their corn.

Condition of Trade.

Gold imports have begun direct from
England and from France, beside the
arrival of S4,000,000 at San Francisco
from Australia for wheat exported.
The gold received there and started from
Europe amounts to SG,500,000 in two
days, and the advance ofits rates by the
Bank of England to . per cent. seems
little likely to check the movement, in
view of heavy merchandise balances
due this country and the rise in rate of
interest here. Since currency began to
90 out largely to move crops, while rap
idly swelling business called for in
creased supplies, the New York market
has grown harder until sterling exchange
fell II cents last week and rates of in
terest rose. When the rise in rates
brought two days reaction in stocks,
with opportunity Tor enormous pur-
chases at decline, gold was started
from London at once by demands of
creditors here. The August excess of
merchandise and specie exports over
imports was not far from $42, 900, 900,
and the September excess will evidently
be larger, unless shipments of gold are
considerable Merchandise exports
from New York i'll three weeks of Sep
tember have been 1913 per cent. over
last years and imports 1871 per cent.
less, and like changes on the whole
trade for the month would result in net
lexports of $50, 900, 900 merchandise, be-
side silver.
