MARKET NOTES.

Dick Brothers & Co.: If the tone of
the press is to be believed, London is
buying Americans in earnest.
t. c. I. is slowly working up to the
figures predicted very early in the year
by the new interests in control The
higher the stock goes the smaller the
amount of the stock for sale
London, 2.SO: Leading Americans up
y to u.
The New York World says that Rock
efeller's big project to corner copper
is said to be failure.
The regular Sugar dividend will be
declared in September, and 1t is the
fashion of Sugar to advance moderately
in the first half of the month in which
the dividend is declared.
Spring and winter wheat receipts are
small, and with 100000 decrease in
northwest stocks and after all liberal
exports for the week of wheat and
-four from all ports, the foundation
would appear laid for at least mod
crate bull movement.
Butte Miner says concerning the pur-
chase of an interest in the Robert En-
met claims at Butter by the Heinzes.
"The Amalgamated Company has for
some time been endeavoring to gain
possession of the Emmett claims. This
attracted the attention of the Heinze
people to the property and they got in
ahead of Mr.. DalyS people as usual
and closed up in short order the present
deal 1t has become a sort of under
stood thing in Butte lately that when
ever the Heinze folks hear of anything
that Mr.. Daily wants, the Heinzes want
lit, or portion of 1t, worse. They APP
pear to like having Mr.. Days COM
panies as co-owners. If the truth
should be told, they seem to appreciate
this condition far more than the presi-
dent of the Amalgamated Company
does.'.
AS far as Wall street is concerned
the little spasm Of dear money in July
led everybody to borrow time money
The demand was supplied, and time
money is still plentiful at or Az per
cent. In fact, the offerings have rather
increased Of late.

at 1875, off rs; December wheat TAN

The following statement in regard to
Amalgamated Copper is from good au-
thority: We feel no anxiety in regard
| to the outcome in connection with
! either the property or the stock The
statistical position of copper is strong.
| The supplies are well located and CON
trolled. The demand is large, and will
| be larger before it is less. There is nc
abatement of confidence by insiders, az
to the ultimate outcome They ex-
| pect to see Amalgamated. Copper sell
at high prices on demand growing out
of the merits of the property.
| Ward line steamer due to arrive has
on board about 100000 gold consigned
to Muller, Schall & Co., from Havana.
| Prime telegraphs from Chicago:
Sunday gave us very high tempera-
ture, and there is every prospect that
we shall have a repetition today of the
same conditions. Receipts of grain at
this point show practically very little
| increase. These conditions show what
| / have said for a long time, that at
present prices farmers are in no hui
NOR to sell. Spring wheat harvest has
been greatly delayed by frequent rains
Estimates upon this crop are being
greatly reduced since the threshing
machines got into the field and show
the actual condition Of the crop Rust
and blight have almost universally re-
duced the yield in bushels as we'll as
very seriously in quality.
