MANCHESTER MARKET
Considerable Ire eularity on Account of
 Decline in Cotton

Manchester, October H.-Considerable ir- regularity In business resulted last week from the decline in cotton. In some quar- ters a fair volume of orders were expected but in others there was little progress Broadly speaking the conference between buyers and sellers Is narrow, although the first effect of the drop in cotton was a certain hesitation which will continue un- til it can be seen whether 1t is likely to progress or react.
 Transactions in cloth were unevenly dis tHbuted Buyers having orders for early delivery readily availed themselves of the opportunity to book orders with sellers anxious to do business, but others frequent ly withdrew offers. awaiting developments. There were some transactions for Bombay and Calcutta, but the offers were frequent ly below the cost of production and were not entertained. Now and then large or ders for delivery extending into 1901 were mentioned, with the result that more ma chinery is resuming normal conditions.
 The China demand was unimportant There was a moderate demand for the smaller markets, where sellers are willing to meet buyers. Meanwhile the depression in Lancaster Is undoubtedly passing away Last week ten thousand looms were idle at Blackburn. During the present week seven mills will start again and the looms remaining idle will be under 40OO

Bureau Will Announce the Result

 The total for the state will show large increase over the population of ten years ago. This Is due largely to the industrial impetus the coal and iron business has given the state.
 After Alabama has been announced the alphabetical rule will obtain in the issu- ance of bulletins While the correction tn the Alabama census was being investigated New Hapshire, Connecticut and the Dis trict of Columbia, which are comparatively small, were completed and announced.

BERLIN MARKET
The Bourse Had Severe Setback
 Wiping Out Advance

Berlin, October H.-Last week the bourse had severe set back, which wiped out the advance made the week before. The Chinese situation is now consdred un- favorable The rise in New York exchange and the unsatisfactory reports of the con- dition of the iron and coal trades depress- ed values generally.
 Coal shares had the worst week. perhaps of the last six months, Westphalian news papers having asserted that the supplies are likely to outrun the demand after next April. Many standard coal shares fell more than ten points.
 The money market has grown apprehen- sive that German gold will go to New York exchange having reached the point at which the demand cannot be satisfied. Nevertheless, nothing is known here of ex- ports of gold to confirm the reports cabled from the United States, although it Is ad- mitted that New York bankers were mak- ing inquiries here during the early part of the week. There Is high authority for the statement that no gold has been taken from the Reichsbank for export

LONDON MARKE T
Much Apprehension Regarding High
 Rate for Money

London, october H.-The Stock Exchange was considerably upset last week on ac- count of the fear that money will become dearer, despite the fact that 1t Is so plenti- ful that rates for short advances were lower than they had been for months. This apprehension was due to the execution of huge exportaton of gold to America, together with the fact that about 1000, 900 pounds was withdrawn for Germany and Egypt In consequence business was brought almost to a standstll, and the tone of the markets was heavy To all this Berlin and Vienna sellers contributed The week closed however, with easier conditions, consols rising to 9S1s and the war loan to 9SA.
 Americans, after moderate decline, re- covered and the changes during the week were unimportant. Union Pacific common and preferred rose 1 and 1Ac respectively; Baltimore and Ohio preferred 1ac; Balti- more and Ohio ordinary, Ac; Louisville and Nashville, 13c Atchison, Ac and Northern Pacific Ac. Erie and few others fell Ac to %c.
 Movements in mining shares were for the most part downward, Bands falling 9-16 and others 1 1-16 to %c. All the old at fractions failed to draw customers and the operators, trying to find new fields for their enterprise, succeeded in getting up a wild boom for "jungles" as West Africans are called; but the whole movement was wholly professional, the public at large remaining uninterested.
 Bar silver, which for some time past had been bought for India mintage purposes, fell sharply on Friday to 29s on the an nouncement that the buying was over. It remains dull and unchanged. Money was abundant. On call 1 to 112c per cent; for a week to 21a and on three months bills 31sGD4.

HEAVY WINDS
Trans Atlantic Steamers Encounter
 Some Rough Weather

New York, October 14-Incoming trans Atlantic steamers all report very heavy weather and high seas. The Hamburg American liner Cap Eric had heavy gales with high seas from October 3 to [. From that time till the 11th the wind moderated but little On the 18th 1t increased and blew with hurricane force, and at 2 o'clock in the afternoon a tremendous sea broke over the bows, smashing the bridge and severely injuring Captain Von Holten. The log of the French liner La Lorraine shows that on every day since she left Favre, on the 9th, with the exception of last Thursday strong winds with heavy seas and swells buff feted the vessel. The Leyland liner Geor- gian, Captain Corrigan, and the White Star liner Nomadic, report heavy seas and strong winds throughout the passage.

 From the New York World
 There is not a trust in the entire United States. Mark Hanna.
 The Salt Trust, known as the National Salt Company of New Jersey, was incor- pordted March 20, 1899. Its capital is $12,000,- 600. This company has a natural monopoly in interior States, while tariff duty av- eraging abou t50 per cent gives to 1t an ar tifcial monopoly on the coast. It is also said to have an understanding with the Salt Union of Great Britain. Under existing con- ditons this trust is likely to add the full tariff duty to the price of its product, which will amount to between $4, ,000, 900 and $5, ,00O,- GOO a year.
 The general belief Is that this trust is con- trolled by the Standard oil people. Its New York offices are in the building of the Stan dard Oil Company, and the Standard oil attorneys in Ohio have appeared for 1t in the suit brought against 1t in that State for the purpose of testing Its powers
 The trust has closed one plant which 1t owns, and several other plants which it has leased.
 Since the trust has been established dairy farmers In Michigan, at the works have been obliged to pay 5 cents a barrel in- stead of B cents, the price in 1896. In New York city dairy salt costs $40 instead of $1, the cost in 1896, and $1.10 the cost in 1897. In other interior states which do not themselves produce salt the price has been about doubled
 Prices began to increase the moment the sdltmakers got their duty and perfected their combinations. Salt had not only been comparatively cheap under the Wilson tar if, when it was on the free list but do- nestle production had increased more than importations.
 The addition of the tariff tax to the price of the domestic product would alone make a profit of almost 64 per cent on the trusts common stock.
