Business and Exchnnr,

The monthly financial letter of the American
national bank says:
Further indications of the expansion of trade
and population in California found in the
reports of increased business and larger earnings
by public service corporations. For example
the net revenues of the Southern Pacific railroad
for the year ending June 80. 1870 were Sc. 3o0,-
5S1 higher than for the year previous. The net
earnings of the Pacific gas and electric company
Tor the six months ending June 80 were 81 635-
3S5 compared with So S12 403 for the entire
year ending June so, 1909. The United Railroads
of San Francisco earned during the first six
months of this year S1.575, ,914. an advance Of
So, ,342 over the net earnings of the same period
in 1909.
Sterling exchange has been gradually moving
away from the gold importation point. At the
same time private rates of discount in London
have been steadily increasing, and almost
the English market is trying TO prevent gold
movement toward America at the present time.
Domestic shipments of California produce are
on the increase, but still have not much effect
on eastern exchange. which remains steady in
this market at about 4c premium.
The attention OF the world is still concen-
trated on the huge speculation in silver engi-
neered by the India specie bank. the outcome
of which becomes more and puzzling The
spectators now have stock of S12, 600. 900 in
india and control about SS. 900 900 more silver in
London. AS the demand for the white metal has
not greatly improved and the sales from Amer
mains TO be how. with a moderate capital
they will be able to keep up the present prices
without coming TO grief. On the other hand,
China has greatly reduced her holdings by sales
to India. and will probably have to appear again
in the market a buyer

Future Grain and Provi.ion.

CHICAGO, Aug. 29.-Exporters of wheat as
serted that foreign bids today were not so
good as on Saturday. although every European
market. Budapest excepted, was higher Nearly
the entire list of other influences bent down
ward, and the close was at a net loss of &c

at the end of last week; oats of &c to &c, and
provisions 21ac down TO 17lac up.
Elevators were good buyers Of September
wheat as it was being Hquidated by miscellane-
longs The purchasers meanwhile sold freely
for December. Cash inquiry improved little
today, but sales to millers were small. In
contrast with this Chicago wheat stocks in
creased 100000 bushels for the week. and are
now 5.915, 600 bushels. For while prices were
bolstered up bit by a rumor that 500 600
bushels of wheat had been sold from Winnipeg
TO France, but later the story was declared a
clumsy fiction. Near the end of the session, the
selling side received additional recruits who
made the final tone easy. Fluctuations in the
December option had as limits s1.04d1.04s a
decline of IA &c compared with Saturday S

Corn was an extremely slow affair. December

BOSTON. Aug. 29.-There is decided improve

fact that brokers' Offices practically bare
Of stocks.
F. A. Heinze is preparing to look after the
Davis-Dsly property and put the Colorado mine
within the next so days the Colorado ore will
be going to the basin smeter al the rate
OF about 200 tons day. large amount Of
concentrating ore has been blocked out down
10 the 1, 700 foot level. sufficient to keep up
shipments for a year OF more.
The Commercial Times prints: About . 700
tons of rock are sent daily from the Mohawk
mine the mill. on which the average yield
is about 10 pound a ton ingot resulting in
copper production of approximately LOCO 600
pounds a month. Judging from the results in
August TO date, this months output should
exceed that of July, when 974,0o0 pounds were
produced. and Will probably reach 1000 600
pounds.
Advices from Eoughton are to the effect that

Two Of the FIVE compartments Of the Giroux

three compartments OF the shaft have since
been raised TO the ! 200 foot level and a pocket

STOCK MARKET
PRICES GO UP

NEW YORK. Aug. 2s.-The
groundwork for the rise of prices
of stocks today was laid last week
in the overselling by a group of
professional operators prompted
by the false alarm of frost damage
to the corn crop. Advices over
Sunday of favorable weather for
corn quieted apprehension and re-
viyed confidence.
Sales of cotton on the New York
cotton exchange for August de-
livery at 2oc a pound were treated
as merely sensational market
episode, due to the imperative re-
quirement of an uncovered short
interest. The crossing of the re-
cord price made in the Sully cor
ner and the establishment of a
new high record since the civil
war were demonstration of sue
cessful manipulation and skillful
market maneuvering with very
little bearing on the problem of
crop yield or intrinsic value.
The rapid movement of grain to
market carries with it the corol-
larry of need for currency to effect
this movement. The demand OH
the interior banks al the reserve
centers for this purpose is said to
be large, and is reflected from
them in the New York banks.
Shipments of currency to the in
terror and to Canada from here
continue actively by express, and
there were deposits at the sub
treasury today for transfer to New
Orleans.
This depletion of bank reserves
may have accounted for slightly
finer tone of call loans today. the
rate opening at / Il per cent and
rising to 2 per cent.
A flrmer tone characterized
money markets in London and
Berlin.
The tenacity with which three
or four of the largest New York
bankers are holding to excessive
surplus reserves in face of the
high rates and meager demand for
commercial paper is the occasion
Of some uneasy discussion as a
possible indication of expected un-
favorable developments of some
kind.
The demand for stocks today
seemed to be professional. OF the
days aggregate sales of 337,700
shares, United States steel, Read
ing and Union Pacific made up
252,300 shares.
Bonds were firm. Total sales

Horses and Mule,

The auction sale of horses held in San Fran
cisco during the week did not develop any inter
esting features. In fact the offerings were con
fined TO the smaller draft types and common
range mares.
A few young horses of Horse Shoe Bar iron
ranging in weight from 100 10 l 300 pounds
sold from $40 to $50 Considering that they
were only just handled and had made a long
railroad trip this price may be said to be ex-
treme for this type of horse.
There were also several range mares OF the
same Iron" sold but they lacked bone and
substance they sold for all they were worth
Prices paid ranged from $25 TO $50.
There keen competition for a few fairly
good driving horses. Prices ranged from $3.50 to
$50. Some work horses went under the hammer
and were sold TO grading contractors from SI1O
TO S165.
Big horses with quality would fnd an outlet
the local markets at the present time. and it
. would hardly be necessary TO beg for bids Emil
quotations could easily be secured for elsssjied
drafters from 1.40O to 1,600 pounds hut pIuo
stuff and blemished horses have no proper place
this market
There appears to be a growing INQUIRY for
mules, and sales at country points are of more
frequent occurrence. Values, however are Sstd
TO be lower than the early summer sales com
manded

are furnished by the Butchers and Stock Grow
ers' Journal.
