pUN's REVIEW.
Volume OF Business For August Twenty
Per Cent Larger Than Last Year.


NEW YORK, Aug. PR. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review Of trade says:
The volume of business reflected in
exchanges at the principal clearing
houses is 2O.4 per cent larger than last
year and 26.s per cent larger than in
1892, heretofore the year of largest busi-
ness and highest prosperity ever known.
Part of this increase was due to specu-
lation at New York, but there remains
a healthy increase over the best Of pre-
vious years. and though in some
branches business is not satisfactory in
character in nearly all it is in volume
larger than ever before
No unfavorable change appears in the
prospect OF crops upon which the well
fare of the country so largely depends,
nor is there present or threatening
financial disturbance. Europe has not
wearied OF buying American securities,
although some spectators have been
selling, nor is there shown any want Of
confidence among American investors.
The money market is running smoothly,
without any symptom of danger. and
the unusual delay of western demand
for crop moving uses only indicates the
enormous increase in available re-
sources carried in the banks Of that
section.
Wheat goes down cents for the
week, as If there were no foreign de-
mand coming, the obvious concert Of
farmers to keep back wheat. the crop
being certainly very large, tending TO
encourage a conspiracy of traders
against them. which thus far has entire
control Of the market
Tt is well to note that the liabilities OF
failures reporting for the three Weeks Of
August have been only Si,59S,2lS against
Sc, SsS. 273 last year and $40, 9S2, 2s5 in 1896
S6.519, S66 in 1895 and SS.214,470 in 1894
Manufacturing were $1,57S,633 against
731,9e6. and trading were S2,91O11
against So, POI .514 last year. Failures foi
the week have been 179 in the United
States against 223 last year, and 26 in
Canada against "a last year.

RANK IN THE NAVY.
Insignias by Which the Commissioned
Officers on Our Men-Of-WRr
Are DIstInguIshed.

While the insignia of rank in the
army are generally known, there is
much less familiarity with the corre-
spending badges in the navy. A sec
ond lieutenant in the army and an en-
sign in the navy wear a strap without
a bar. One bar indicates a first lieu
tenant in the army and a junior lieu
tenant in the navy; two bars, captain
in the army and a lieutenant in the
navy; a gold leaf, major and lieuten-
ant commander; a silver leaf, lieuten-
ant colonel and commander; a silver
eagle, colonel and captain; silver
star, brigadier general and commo-
dore; two silver stars, major general
and rear admiral. The grades above
this do not now exist, but their in
sigma are as follows; Lieutenant gem
eraI and vice admiral, three silver
starsS general and admiral, four sill
yer stars. These highest ranks have
not figured in the greater part Of our
history. The grade of rear admiral
was created in 1852. that of vice adj
miral in 1864 and that of admiral in
1866. This rank was created for Far
ragut, and Porter was made vice ad-
miral at the same time. On the death
Of Farragut Porter was made admiral,
and when the latter died in 1891 botl
/ grades became extinct. Since then
rear admiral has been the highest
rank. Gen. Grant was the only gen
eral" In the strict sense that we have
ever had, and the only lieutenant gen
erals were Washington. Scott Cbrevet)
