Spirits Turpentine-It has been another
week of uncertainty in the spirits turpen-
tine market. Durin the early part of the
week there was soTne weakness displayed
by the prominent buyer allowing the mar
ket to decline FROM 26 cents to 2534 cents
Other buyers appeared so eager to secure
supplies about that time that the price
again rose TO 26 cents and remained I'M
changed until the. close to-day. The re-
ported sales to-day were $50 casks. The
receipts were 1929.
Rosin-The features in the rosin market
during the past week We're the steady
decline on pale grades. There was a good
demand at each deoline, and the sales
aggregated about the amount of the re-
ceipts. To-day the market was unchang-
ed from yesterdays closing prices and the
reported sales for the day were 1756 bar
rels. The days receipts were 3,407 barrels
Quotations-At the close of the market
to-day the following quotations were bull

DRY GOODS.

New York, Aug 20-The market for dry
goods is well sustained to-day Telegraph
reports from out of town showing heavy
buying in retail stores, while the local at
tent.on of buyers in jobbing centers was
as heavy as heretofore. AT first hands,
too, the orders received b. mail as well
as by store trading were heavy in all lines
of cotton goods The demand for wooden
goods in some departments show a falling
off in interest, but the results are stll
such as to justify the assertion that the
season will prove to have been an excep-
tionally large one in the amount of bust
ness done. In staple cotton the demand
for brown goods is well sustained with
the exception of export grades, which are
quiet Prints are quoted 25sc, with sellers
Withholding goods except under most fav-
orable circumstances.

buy ON scale down, so that prices meet
resisting force before they have reced-
ed far.
Prices in the stock market did not re-
spond to the sensational rise in wheat as
Is sometimes the case. So far as this rise
was due TO buying for Europe the iump
OF wheat in England and in the CONT
nent, 1t was favorable result on the mar
kel' as indicating increased purchases Of
wheat from farmers. Reports of such
crop conditions were prevalent in wall
street all day and the market responded
quickly, especially in the Changers
The continued firmness of Sterling Fx-
change rates was not an encouraging fac
tor in the market. London and the con-
inental money centers seem to be forcing
10 decide which shall meet the first de
mand for gold on account of the heavy
crop movement. but the exchange market
reflected no immediate likelihood of i'm
ports of gold
The curious contradiction in sentiment,
which has existed for most part between
the London and New York markets, found
a new phase to-day. Prices for American
securities came higher from London this
morning, indicating a disregard of the re-
action manifested in the New York mar
ket Purchases In New York for Lon
don account were made as nearly all the
International stocks in spite of the fall
ing course of prices. Sales for this ac>
count were estimated al 10000 shares The
New York market equally ignored the
sentiment of the London market, and went
on selling. Receipts of American securi-
ties from foreign holders have been very
large recently by incoming steamers from
European purchasers.
The extreme decline to-day was consider
ably over point in a large number OF
shares, including leading southern and
southwestern issues and Reading issues A
hardening of prices i'm the afternoon di-
mlnished the losses, but they reached a
point IN many cases. Leather preferred

its net change was small

Io,ver-Resume of the week.
s.vannah, Aug. 2O.-The feature of the
week in the general markets was the ma
,arssl Improvement in the volume of goods
ehinDed TO the country. In groceries and
d-y GOODS the demand was very much
,.rger than for several weeks previous.
73rioss on staples were advanced, the prin-
-tr,i features being flour and provisions.
1,r,. Goods showed tirmness and there was
,an5ency to advance prices. The naval
stores trade was steady, spirits turpentine
cling at % cents. except on one day,
yns, it dropped to 2594 cents. There was
q decline on pale resins.
r-a cotton market was quiet and easy
sr .ast Fridays quotations, until to-day,
voen revision of prices were made for
now cotton, at a decline of Is cents below
49,. old quotations The security market
uss fairly active for investment. but the
sunplcs were limited. Collections were
oaly fair.
The outlook for an increased trade and
bir1er prices appears brighter, and with
,.e expected movement of cotton the re-
x,val of business in this section will be as
sJrad.
The following resume of the different

10 build up new enterprises. A number
or new factories were located and have
Been in successful operation since that
CINE. An effort was also made TO in
crease the carrying trade. with what sue
cess the figures above quoted tell the
story.
Natural location has a great deal TO
do with the success OF a town, but pub
lie enterprise and industry are worth
more. The town that is ellgibly located
IS apt TO depend too much on its natural
advantages and too little upon individual
and cooperative effort. That has been
one Of Richmond's faults. We have re-
lied too much upon our natural advan-
tages and not enough upon our own ex-
ertions. Richmond's natural advantages
are certainly superior to those Of Char
lesion. and with a like amount Of effort
our people can accomplish more for
Richmond than the Charleston people
have accomplished for Charleston.
For many years New York relied en-
Of the country and its greatest seaport.
But New Workers have recently walked
~ to the fact that that sort Of prestige
has to be maintained by public enterprise
and hustle. No city in the country has
recently been more actively at work 70
build up its trade than the city Of New
York, and II It IS necessary for New
York to hustle, how much more necessity
II IS FOR Richmond 10 do so.
Let us not be content with spasmodic
efforts. The merchants excursion was
a. success. but our public enterprise
should not stop there. Let us have other
excursions and not excursions only, but
let us have other movements Of SINH
lar character 10 build up our trade. And
just so surely as we do so will the prac-
tical results follow.

our CROP PROSPECTS.

The Hon. John W. Bookwalter, OF Ohio
has been travelling extensively in Europe
and, in a recent letter 20 a friend at
Springfield, makes some very interesting
statements with regard to the crop con-
dition in the Old World.
lie says that he has read all the re-
ports on agriculture that he could get
hold Of. and that the one common opinion
Is that France. Hungary Italy, and Rus
STA are short on wheat: that the crop OF
England is not mp 10 the average, and
that still further rise in the price Of
wheat IS imminent. The potato crop in
Ireland, he says. is the worst for fifty
years. and that statement is borne out
by the press reports in yesterdays paper0
Mr.. Bookwalter is very bullish on corn.
lie estimates that the crop i'm the United
States, 1.SOOOO0000. will not be more than
enough for home demand. and with a full
crop he expects 10 see corn in Chicago
selling at 40 cents I'm the early future,
and at a much higher figure, in case there
is damage by frost
Meats are scarce abroad. he says, and
