ternadonaIs. The Changers made a
strong opening in spite of selling for Lon
don account on account of the high level
of earnings disclosed by St. Pauls state
ment for the third week in August The
increased movement of grain in the North
west which has weakened wheat the last
few days is probably reflected in these
earnings. which were $SS.50S in excess of
last year, and over $4,000 in excess of the
high level for the corresponding period of
1892
The grain movement, though augmented
is not yet up to last years level, and the
large railroad earnings are due to general
traffic resulting from the more liberal out
lay on last years profit by the people Of

that there was realizing in speculative
bonds, but prices reacted to some extent
in sympathy with the later weakness in
stocks. Total sales, S4,21O000. United
