London Financial Times on Northern
Securities Case.

Discussing the suggestion that decision against
railways in the Northern Securities suit would
have serious results on our situation. the Lon
don Financial Times remarks:
we cannot bring ourselves to believe that
the issue of the have any lasting
effect upon business. a decision adverse TO the
company might disturb Stock Exchange busi-
ness temporarily. but there is comparatively
little real business being transacted that effect
would not be OF serious consequence. on the
other hand. such decision should logically
foster the interstate commerce OF the country as
II would prove the readiness Of the legislature
10 protect such commerce from any restraint
which might be put upon II by a monopoly
OF transportation facilities IL Is more than
probable that the influence OF the Northern
Securities case and its decision upon the mar
ket will be neither serious nor long-lfved
There are. however. three distinct factors in
the present situation other than the Northern
Securities case which tend 10 prevent anv OF
the leading interests from inaugurating a new
buying movement. The first is the presidential
manufacture OF new railroad securities and the
third the unsatisfactory business outlook The
elections generally tend TO reduce the conf
Gence OF operators ia the stock market, and
this one will prossibly prove exception At
present IL appears that vital point or policy
viii be at issue and the disturbance OF trade
and speculation may therefore be reduced 10 a
minimum. but no greSt outbreak OF activity
can be looked for while the election overshadows
the market"

RECEIPTS OF SHEEP LIBERAL.


The receipts of sheep and lambs this week
have been comparatively liberal. showing a gain
of 1000 over last week. 100 over the same week
a year ago and $50 over the corresponding week
two years ago. Receipts thus far this year as
we'll as for the month thus far show a gain OF
over 200 compared with the same period last
yea.
For the first time recently there were about
enough sheep and lambs every day this week
to invite competition from all buyers and most
OF the time the demand was reasonably well
supplied The quality has been generally salts
factory and good strong prices have been main
tanned In general way. while occasionally an ad-
vance OF 2oc was secured. The proportion OF sheep
In the consignments was small and there were
not enough at all times TO develop the true con-
dition of the market. Local butchers have bought
about the usual number and shippers who were
encouraged by more favorable developments in
Eastern markets were rather free buyers all
week.
There was time in the week that the top
price for lambs fell below 1913 and half OF the
week sales were made high S.. common
kinds sold low as 81. So but there were very
few DAYS that any sales were made below s..
Throughout the week the best sheep have sold
at $3.50 and culls have sold as low 81 but
there were very few days that any sales were
reported below 49, Bucks have sold usually at
s2.15q3 per 100 lbs.

WHOLESALE TRADE FOR WEEK.
Features Have Been Advances I'm
Prices of Dry Goods and Coffee.

past week were advances in the prices of dry
goods and cOfees The advance in the dry
goods market was on cotton and sheeting goods
This is the NTH time during, the past two
months that the prices Of cotton and sheeting
goods have been advanced. and the tendency is
for still higher prices.
Package coffee advanced the early part
OF the week These prices. too. have been on
the advance for some time. and they are con-
siderably higher than months ago. The
general explanation for the upward tendency on
package coffees is a shorter crop last year and
manipulation OF the market for the raw product
BY Eastern capitalists.

not large during the weeks before the
