Additional evis dence of the decrease of public interest is furnished by the smaller volume of trans- acuons. az

FINANCIAL REVIEW

New York September 2.-Bradstreet s financial review tomorrow will say:
 Prices have been irregular and at the beginning of the week the tone of specu- lation was reactionary. Large interests were disposed to withdraw support or to act on the bear side and there was more or less liquidation of the strong bull account open for the public. London also sold and the firmness of the money market checked speculative buying in spite of the weak ness of exchange and the increasing prob ability of gold imports. Later on the mar ket, though still irregular, exhibited firm CT tone, advances being scored in Sugar and other portions of the list, which had been depressed by bear selling. At the same time London showed increased readiness to nurchase here. The extreme heat at the west was reported to have injured the corn crop. and on this the granger shares were quite heavy. It was noted that throughout the week the market did not move in unison

DUN'S WEEKLY
 REVIEW OF TRADE Smallest Number of Failures Reported
 For Five Years. BUSINESS Is ENORMOUS
The VOlume Larger Than Has Eyer
 Been Known Before.
PROSPECT OF MUCH INCREASE
There Is No Room to Doubt That the Wheat Crop Will Be the Biggest Ever arvested-Tonnage
 Movement Large.

New York, September 2.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly review of tomorrow will say:
 The smallest number of failures ever re- corded in any month for five years were those of August. The clearings have been the largest ever known in August, and 23 per cent larger than in 1892.
 The enormous volume of business in a month usually one of the most inactive of the year demands attention. Postponement during the months of war of some contracts and of purchases which have now come forward explain part of the increase, and the strong absence of securities explains but half of it, but there has also been decline in prices for all commodities, so that it takes a much larger volume Of bus- mess in tons or bushels than make up transactions amounting to a million or more than in 1892. It is therefore strictly true that business Is larger than in the very best of all past years, and yet there Is every prospect of much further increase.
 There is no room to doubt that the wheat crop will prove the largest ever harvested and although Beerbohm estimates Europe's crop al 232,OO0,OOO bushels more than the last, that would be only about an average yield while other evidence is less faVorap4e. Foreign buying has been strong. But re- ceipts at the west are increasing and the price has dropped cents for spot, though the September option is seven-eighths lower for the week. Corn has fallen fraction later reports indicating a less satisfactory yield and probably not more than should pc consumed at home in enlarging the stocK of animals
 aThe woolen mills have rather better or ders this week, but not enough as yet 10 warrant running nearly full force. In cot ton manufacture there is better demand with a sixteenth raise in print cloths though brown sheetings are shade lower the demand for other goods being still fair- lY strong.

BRADsTREET's REVIEW

New York, September 2-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say:
 The advent of September finds fall trace apparently in full swing in the west and northwest, and more reported doing at snuthern, Mississippi Valley points and the east. Early reports of large business oo- ing during August are confirmed by aggre- gates of monthly bank clearings, which show unprecedentedly large totals for that month, little below, indeed, the immense monthly aggregate of last winter. Reports from the iron and steel trade tn high de- gree favorable, the tonnage movement De- ing unprecedently large and the tone or prices firm at the advances recently scored.
 Corn exports for the week aggregate l. 661 TOO bushels, against 2,64S, ,9a3 bushels last week and 3,1S5.O64 bushels this week last year.
 The western crop situation remains prac- tically unchanged, cash wheat being lower on a rather large movement Of spring wheat.
 Corn has been ruled by the weather. which is dry and hot, with steadying ef- feet on prices. The close of the cotton year finds the price of that staple slightly firmer on reports of damage by rain to the crop in the south Atlantic states From other parts of the south, however, crop reports continue quite favorable, and a yield at least equal to that reaIZeo oorins sas the year just ended U, ,191 0O0) is looked for by many A better tone is evident in the print cloth markets and an advance of one- sixteenth cent is reported.
 Failures in the United States are down to very low figures, numbering only 164 this week, against 172 last week and l9S In 1897.
 An increased business Is reported in the Southern Mississippi valley, New Orleans telling of increased activity in general trade and larger receipts of the new crop of cot ton and rice. On the South Atlantic coast heavy rains have hurt distributive trade and have materially injured cotton crop prospects
 Wheat shipments for the week, Including flour aggregate 3,6S7. .040 bushels as against S.563, ,476 bushels last week and 6,263647 bush els in the corresponding week of 1897.

 Rates to Cincinnati Now On.
9-1-hur-sat sun-3t

Yesterday the Southern railroad was busv handling troops out of Camp Hobson at Lithia Springs, Ga. taking them to Mon- tauk Point, Long Island One thousand men and six officers were handled yester- day. Over 400 were taken away some days ago, so that now there are a compara lively few left in camp there.
 All of the men are recruits who enlisted for service in the regular army, but who were not sent to the front. The officers with them are now rejoining their com mands at Montauk
 The Southern also handled one train of soldiers from Chickamauga to Anniston by way of Rome, Ga.
 Yesterday morning at 3:2O o'clock the Louisville and Nashville handled a train through the city bearing, a signal corps. It was being transferred from Jack sonville to Huntsville. The train stopped only few minutes.
 There is a nice little competition on be- tween the Louisville and Nashville and the Alabama Great Southern railroads as to which will handle the largest number of passengers from Birmingham to the Grand Army of the Republic reunion, which meets in Cincinnati. September ell.
 The reduced rates were put on last night, and about twcnty-pcople availed themselves Of the first train after that time and left on the northbound Louisville and Nashville about 12:30. It is said that fifty more joined them at Culman.
 From now on every train leaving the city on either road will have O large number of veterans and their friends on board. While the Louisville and Nashville has been de- clared the official route from Birmingham, the Alabama Great Southern people claim that they will handle equally as many as 'the Louisville and Nashville.
