The amounts reported for 1893 are the
largest on record. The custom of report
ing net earnings lacks uniformity. These
net earnings are supposed to be the gross
earnings, less expenses. and to be available
for dividends and additions to reserve fund
The reports do not all bear that strict inter-
probation. The commissioners have never
eXacted from the banks statement Of
their expenses. Apparently, including
taxes, the banks are conducted at an aggre-
gate cost. in round numbers, of 50, 500, 000 to
s., 900, 600 per annum.
Exports of cattle from this country this
year bid fair to surpass all previous rec
ords, says a correspondent of the Chicago
Drovers' Journal. The cattle space from
the United States ports is taken for months
ahead and every foot of space is being
filed. Thousands of United States cattle
are going forward from Montana for the
first time since 1879. Nearly 469, 900 head OF
cattle were shipped from American ports
last year, and it would not surprise me
bit to find on December 31st, when the
totals for the year are made up. that the
shipments will exceed those of 1896 by 1G0 =
coo, and that the shipments of beef quar-
tiers will be 100000, as compared with
1,150.c00 last year The same facts will ap-
ply to mutton. The foreign demand for our
sheep is very heavy. For some months the
shipments have been unusually large ow-
ing to the short supply in England and
France. Mutton is now about 81 per 100
pounds higher than 1t was year ago. and
if foreign demand continues it will go still
higher.

CHICAGO MARKET
Yesterday Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO July 21.-There will be no ses-
sion of the board of trade tomorrow. Logan
day.
The Liverpool wheat market stopped its
previously repidly advancing quotations
at the opening this morning and had fallen
back L penny before trading commenced
here. That, however appeared to be
masterful stroke of business strategy, for
from its effect upon prices here at the start
1t permitted the filing of great many for
eisn buying orders which were on the
market. Foreigners are taking everything
in sight here" said message from New
York. Liverpool in the meantime recovered
all its early loss and the acceptances of
cash wheat offered from New York by
cable last night were accepted to the extent
OF about 600 bushels, according to the
kilograms sent from the seaboard. The
latter items of news caused, a rapid recov-
cry from a l cent per bushel decline with
which this market started, and in the
course of forty minutes from the opening
an even }2c advance over yester-
days closing quotations had been recorded.
The domestic situation was somewhat
mixed. The receipts of new wheat are fall
ing far below last year. Primary points
only got 215,500 bushels today, against 3S2.-
coo bushels a year ago. Chicago received SO
cars, of which SO were new. The north
west receipts amounted to 29S cars. Heavy
ldluS were reported III the spring wheat
country and claims were made to the effect
that damage had already resulted from too
much moisture. These reports WERE of
course, denied, with the assurance that the
rains were very beneficial and timely, es-
pecially in the Red River valley. Atlantic
port clearances amounted to 277, 600 BUSH
els, wheat and flour. Local sentiment
among the big spectators was very bullsh
and the bear crowd was pushed to the
limit, in an endeavor to cover September
advanced cents from the lowest price
made at the opening and retained a new adj
vance of 11ac. Corn had to thank the rise
in wheat for recovery from a &c decline
at the opening. Oats, like corn, were not
very conspicuous, yet at times some life
would develop, only to lose itself very soon
afterward. The feeling was weak, due
principally to heaviness in the cash depart
ment Demand was very slow and Offer
ings relatively liberal, especially from the
west. The provision trade was light. The
tendency of prices was irregular. At one
time an advance was ascrfbed to strength
in wheat because the firmness in both
markets happened to be simultaneous, but
later, when wheat had become still strong
er. provisions began to declins.
The leading futures closed as follows:

The question of whether a married wo-
man living in one state can hold bank stock
In another state was decided in the affirma-
tive by the Maryland Court of Appeals in
the case of Kerr. receiver, VS.. Uric. The
court in rendering judgment said: 1.-THE
question presented is whether married
woman residing in this state is capable
of holding stock in national bank located
and doing business in the state of Texas
and, II so, whether she is liable as such
stockholder under the personal liability
provisions of section 5152 of the Revised
Statutes of the United States. What ever
difficulty may surround this question
arises, we think. more from the manner in
which it is presented in this case than from
any other cause, for it can hardly be sup
posed at this day, when by the law of most
all the states. married woman may con-
tract as a feme sole in respect to her
separate estate, she is without power to
subscribe for or become the transferrer of
the stock of a national bank
