DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.

NEW YORK, July i3.-R. G. Dun &

cially TO S43, S93, 079 in the second quar-
ter, against s2,159, 635 last year. gave
no occasion for diligent search. failure
returns would be worth nothing. But
to-day it is shown that thirty banking
failures for SIS, S22, $50, against thirty
one last year for 81 sol, 72S, accounted
for much of the difference; that 265
brokerage and real estate failures for
SO, 122 1854, against 145 last year for
only S2,32S, 215, accounted for another
part, and that in building and lumber
working trades other large failures dis
tinctly connected with those in real es-
tate explain much more of the differ
ence between manufacturing and trad
ing failures last year and this. In
these and much less important changes
in a few other lines are seen substan-
tally all the commercial disasters as
yet resulting from an amazing rise in
prices last year. followed by weary but
largely successful efforts during the
|
normal state of business. When this
is seen and the remarkable steadiness
in number and size OF the great major
ity OF failures, not for exceptional
amounts, there appears ground for spe.
cial satisfaction that business mas been
der conditions of unusual danger.

CHlCAGO, july 13.-Weather cOndi-
tons influenced all the grain markets
to-day. Reports of improvement in
the northwest and the raising OF the
figures on the estimated yield were the
principal factors in decline of 1k@
INC in wheat. Corn closed h@%c
lower and oats b@Ac lower. Provi-
sions were steady on light receipts and
good cash demand and closed 2b@5c
higher.
The opening tone of wheat was rath-
er strong, September starting at an adj
vance Of 1s@3sc at S01a @S0ssc. This
was due entirely to pit trading, local
spectators being influenced by the
fact that foreign markets did not show
an adequate response to yesterday
decline here and to the seriousness of
the Chinese situation. The strength
disappeared almost Immediately. Re-
ports from the northwest told of an
improved condition of wheat as re-
suit of rains and the cooler weather
prevailing and the changes in the crop
given out to-day in the Trade Bulletin
were considerable. This quickly chang
ed the balance of trading in favor of
the bears. The northwest sold consid-
cradle and the steady decline in the
price finally discouraged longs and re-
suited in considerable liquidation,
which was kept up with more or less
steadiness all day. Towards the close
of the session there was a slight i'm
provement in tone, caused principally
by covering by northwest traders who
had put out wheat earlier in the week
and who had good profits in sight. The
closing, however, was heavy thought
at a little better than bottom price
Choice sold down to zoe, but recovered
to 1850 late on buying. The close
was at 791sQ79Ac. Northwest re-
ceipts were 142 cars, compared with
102 cars last week and 43S year ago.
Chicago receipts were 81 cars, Is of
contract grade. Total primary receipts
|, were 509QOO bushels against 5000
bushels year ago. New York report
ed so loads taken for export. Seaboard
clearances were equal to 215,oO0 bush
els
Corn was strong early, influenced by
reports of continued weather in Kan
sas and Nebraska and the absence OF
rain with decidedly pessimistic crop
reports. Opening prices showed sub
stantial advance, and this fact Induced
| enough profit taking to keep prices on
the down grade for the rest of the SEES
sion. Some liquidation was induced

stricken districts Country offerings

The Are Of Orcuni.ation.

New Boarder-Weil. Well. This Is the
first place I've struck where they have
preserved Strawberries and peach jan
instead of stewed prunes.
Old Boarder-All owing to organiza
ton, my boy. Us boarders have mu.
tual protective association, with iron
clad rules and heavy penalties.
"Oh, hol You kicked against prunes
did you?"
Not much we didn't. We passed q
law that whenever prunes came on the
table every member should eat quart
or pay ten dollars fine. That settled
it. The landlady found prunes too ex.
pensive."-N. Y. Weekly.

Hiram" said his wife, II wish you
would go out to the shed and get a
bucket OF Goals"
"Coals!" muttered Hiram to himself,
as he went grumblingly to comply with
the demand. "Coals! That's her way
Of reminding me that she could afford
TO spend six months in England every
year before she married me!"-Chicago
Tribune.

Tongues alone cannot work much
mischief in the world. It takes ears
to make tn work of tongues complete
and efficient. II tongues must be
bridled, ears must be stopped. Many a
manwho would not tell an impure story
Or give impetus to ribald jest will
DO his part in demoraiizing himself and
his fellows by onening his ears TO
It. Deafness helps the evil speaker TO
hold his tongues. S. Times.
