Stock speculation at N ewJTork is becom
ing more active, and values advance on the
improved financial situation and the crop
and business outlook. Bonds are firm with
better activity. Money at New York is
easy, and call loans are down to 34 per
cent, as compared with 56 per cent last
week, but time is held firmly at 5 percent
and better. Elsewhere at financial centers
nothing like stringency is reported. For
eign exchange is firmer on the advance of
tbe Bank ot England discount rate to 4 per
cent. Easier money here also affects tbe
market Demand sterling at $4 87

There has been more activity in domestic
grain markets. Flour has sold more freely
Jor home use and export at full prices. The
Vienna congress estimate of a 15 per cent de
ficiency in European crops advanced wheat
prices here 2 cuts per bushel. This was lost
later, but wheat retains an advance of one
eighth of a cent on the week. The interior
movement of winter wheat has not met ex
pectations. Bradstreet't London corre

18,976,311 bushels in 1888.
Aivances in freight rates on iron and steel
are to go into effect East on Tuesday and
"West on September 16. The Western ad
vance is about 25 per cent and covers al1
points in the territory of the Central Traffic

have fair stocks. Crude tends higher at tbe

DEYGOODS LINES.
Drygoods jobbers at New York and Bos
ton are actively employed, and commission
men report a moderate trade. Cotton and
wool dress goods (printed calicoes, ging
hams, soft wool dress fabrics and notions)
are relatively most active with New Ycrfc
jobbers. Prices are not changed. Print
cloths are weak on increasing stocks and
slow demand. Other cotton goods (except
Southern makes) are fairly well controlled
as to stocks. More confidence is reported in
tbe woolen goods trade, notwithstanding
shut-downs of various mills. About the
usual amount of orders for spring-weight
goods is reported. Trade in blankets is bet
ter than for several years, and improvement
in the clothing trade is reported. Lack of
remunerative orders and narrow margins
render raw wool duller than usual at this
date. Prices are Jle lower than two
weeks ago. Antwerp wool sale advances
are strong.
From the actlvitv noted last week raw
sugar has relapsed to stagnation, which
freer arrivals and offerings of impcrters fail
to relieve. Demand for refined, too, is very
slow. Baw sugar at New York isoffjc,
and refined is shaded. At San Francisco
granulated is yia higher. Licht's conti
nental beet crop estimates are again re
duced. Inability to discharge vessels,
owing to the strike at London docks, has
advanced sugar there Gd. Brazilian coffee
markets are firmer on reports of drouth.
Domestic and European markets are also of
firmer temper. At New York prices are up
3-5c.
Business failures reported to Bradstreet't
number 176 in the United States this week
against 218 last week and 136 this week last
year. Canada had 21 this week against 13
Inst week. The total of failures in the
United States January 1 to date is 7,003,
against 6,721 in 1888.
DUN'S BENTEW.
B. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade: Last week's suggestions in regard to
the monetary sitnation have been entirely
sustained by the events of the past week.
Thosz who held larce amounts of Govern
ment bonds were induced to sell freely at
prices formerly paid by the Treasury, which
has thus been enabled to pay out about
$20,000,000 tor bond?. But thete heavy dis
bursements have scarcely changed at all the
market for commercial paper at Boston or
at Philadelphia, thongh speculation has
been rendered more active, and sharp ad
vances in stocks and wheat have resulted.
The Secretary's belief "that bonds to a
large amount co'nld be obtained at the prices
offered has been justified, and he has) done
what he could under the law to prevent
monetary pressure. But the money dis
bursed seems likely to relieve speculative
rather than commercial needs, at least until
other operations besides the one in Govern
ment bonds have been liquidated. Stocks
have advanced jnst $2 CO per share in a
week, and 1,200,000 shares have been sold
already at tbe rising prices. As yet the
money for bonds has not actually gone out
of the Treasury, and its cash holdings are a
little larger than a week ago, but its de
posits in banks $500,000 less.
Business in all parts of the country con
tinues to improve with the stimulus of large
crops. Chicago report immense increase
-
in receipts of grain and provisions, with
considerable gain in sales ot drygoods and
clothing. Milwaukee finds trade improv
ing. At Detroit and St Paul previous im
provement is maintained. At Omaha busi
ness is very good, and though trade at
Kansas City is rather quiet. the demand tor
money is enlarging. At Cleveland and
Pittsburg the
IBON BUSINESS IS EXPANDING,
and at Philadelphia improvement is noted
in wool, groceries, iron and steel, and their
products, and in coal, with good trade in
drugs and chemicals and tobacco. At Bos
ton sales of wool are larger, reaching 2.100,
000 pounds for" the week, and the goods
trade is Ijrge, with prices well .maintained.
A heavy demand for export is observed in
leather, and large building operations make
tbe lumber trade more active.
The situation in the iron industry is sur
prisingly encouraging, for a weekly pro
duction, hardly ever surpassed, appears to
be met by a wonderful demand, althoueh
deliveries of rails continue below last year's.
The Tennessee Coal and Iron Company
gives notice of an advance of 25 cents in its
prices for pig iron, and the rise in the price
of coke at Pittsburg insures some advance in
pig iron there, while bar, plate and structure
iron are in strong demand and tbe works
belter employed than they have been before
for several years.
Wool is not yet freely taken by manufac
turers at current prices. The high price
and Inferior quality of cotton embarrasses
manufacturers, but a large new supply is
now at band. The interior m6ney markets
are so well supplied that the lack of supply
for commercial purposes at the chief eastern
cities is the more noticeable. At Milwau
kee there is more activity and a strong de
mand, and at Chicago the demand is good,
but in general the supply is ample at the
usual rates.
COLLECTIONS ABE IM.FBOYING.
at Omaha, and rather Jbetter at Philadel
adelphia, but at most points the absence of
complaint is noteworthy. The movement,
of money through the treasury to the in
terior continues, and would doubtless have
caused some pressure here but for the liberal
sales of bonds. While the Bank of England
has raised its rate ol discount, thus evincing
a disposition to prevent any outflow of gold
to this country, the sales of commercial bills
against cotton and other crops have been
large, and the exports Irom New York for
four weeks exceed last year's by nearly 22
fier cent, the increase on imports being a
ittle larger.
In the speculative markets the general
tendency has been toward lower prices,
though wheat advanced on extravagant re
ports of shortness in European crops. But
the average of prices for all commodities is
about 1 per cent lower than a week ago, and
even in wheat the later sales indicate a de
clining tendency, as in other grain and pro
visions. .
The business failures number 211, as com
pared with a total of 206 last week, and 213
the week previous. For the corresponding
week of last year tbe figures were 226.
BEAT HEE OWN TIME.
The Steamablp Colombia Makes tbe Beat
Record Yet From Southampton.
tSPECIAL TXLEGEAM TO TBS DISPATCH.
New Yobk, August 30. The Hamburg
American steamship Columbia surpassed on
her second trip here,, which ended to-day,
the best record from Southampton, which
she had made herself. She passed Sandy
Hook at 520 A. M., having made the run of
3,049 knots in 6 days, 18 hours and 20 min
utes, just three hours and three minutes
faster than her maiden voyage of 6 days, 21
hours and 23 minntes. Her average speed
an hour for the trip was a little over 18
knots. The big steamship City of Pans
made her wonderful voyage from Queens
town at an average pace ot 20.01 knots an
hour. Her time was 5 days, 18 hours
and 18 minutes and the dlstance2,788 knots.
At the rate of 1S knots the Columbia
would have made this distance in 6 days,
4 hours and 42 minutes, good Etruria time,
and remarkably fast for a second trip. It
shows that for a ship over 100 feet shorter
than the City of Paris, the Columbia may
be regarded as something of a phenomenon
herself. Her daily runs hither were: August
23, 373; August 24, 473; August 25, 479;
August 26, 453; August 27, 459; August 28,
481; to the Hook, 334; total, 3,049.
It is of course verv improbable that the
Columbia will ever come up to the City of
Paris, but that she will beat the Dest run oi
the Etruria there is little doubt. Bishop
Potter was among her passengers. '
HUCH BETTER THAN EXPECTED.
The Creditors Flensed br the Statement of
Lewie Bros. fc Co.
Philadelphia, August 30. The state
ment of assets and liabilities of Lewis Bros.
& Co., which was filed in this city and New
York to-day, is milch better than expected.
The creditors of the firm were gratified when
the figures were given to them, and the gen
eral opinion was that the firm could tide
over its troubles and make a satisfactory
settlement with the creditors. Some sur
prise was expressed by the creditors at the
amount of the liabilities named in the in
ventory. Alter the failure of the firm, va
rious estimates, ranging from 54,000,000 to
$6,000,000, were given.
The delav in the publication of the state
ment was looked upon as an indication that
the statement would be bad. Inquiry to
dav disclosed the fact that since the failure
Mr. Bliss, the assignee, has labored ardu-
onslv. and has succeeded in settling a "nunr
ber of matters" in New York, to quote from
a member of the firm.

wearers against high prices and Inferior goods. If your dealer does not keep the style or kind
you want, or offers you shoes without W. L. Douglas' name and price stamped on them, andsays
they are just as good, do not be deceived thereby, but end direct to the Factory, for you can get
whatyou want by return malirpostage paid. Dealers make more profit on unknown shoes that
are not warranted by anybody; theretore do not be induced to buy shoes that have no reputation.
