THE PITTSBURG- DISPATCH, SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1891. THE TRADE OUTLOOK On the Ere of an Advance in Prices and Greater Business. SECORD OP THE STOCK MARKET. Europe Will Bequire 100,000,000 Bushels of Wheat From Us. AMERICA CAN SET THE MARKET PRICE rcoRBEeroxDEXCE or tdk dispatch. Kew Yohk, Aug. 7. When the period frcn 1S73 to 1877, and from 1SR4 to 1887, and the year 1890-1891 are considered, each of -which comprises one of increasing volume of general trade, and a tendency to advance on the part of prices of nearly all the staple products, it Trill be found that at the pres time, if the analogy is to hold true, we are on the ove of an advance not only in price, hut an expansion in the volume of business. This may sound strange, in view of the recent contraction of prices of railroad rharcs in "Wall street and ihe tight time money market. A Wall street capitalist of note says that men who have money to lend, and who have been first in promoting enter prises of promise for years past, now have their pockets buttoned. They prefer not to lend money, except upon specially advan tageous ternib, and explain this by saying that money must be tight during the com ing autumn for several reasons. One is that the Government will not buy bonds as It has done for years past, another is that we are now awaiting the return of the gold which has been shipped abroad, to the extent of more than 570,000,000, and con cerning the return of which there has been expressed more or lcs doubt: and the third is that at this time funds are in the habit of poing West to move the crops, to such an extent that with the reasons explained the outlook is for a decreased amount of monev to loan in general commercial lines Lend ers of funds, therefore, are demanding high rates of intcrct, or prefer not to loan, rooi: ritosrncTS ahead. These features have been quoted 3s evi dence that the prospect for an increased and Improved business outlook is not bright, ret to one who examines closer, it is not im probable that the reverse is true. It should be remembered that, following the last two Or three so-called panics in the money mar ket, prices of securities rebounded from the highest point tonched to go back to equally low or a till lower point within a year, r.fter v. Inch substantial or continued im provement as noted. Durinc the closing months of 1890 the -Kew York stock market was affected by what was characterized as a semi-panic caused by the effect upon the London money market by unwise investments in South .American securities. From the 1st of Jan uary last during the following three months there was a greater or less recovery on the jvart of American railway shares, since when there has been a substantial decline on the part of nearly all the leading markets. It is worth noting that three or four of the more prominent stocks listed at the New York Stock Exchange have already reached, for the second time since the 1st of .Tanuarv, as low a point as during the so-called panic of 1890. This would indicate, at least, that we have reached approximately a point where a recovery is among the probabilities, judging bv analogy found in the periods irom 1873 to 1877 and 1884 to 1SS7. RECORD Or THE MARKET. The following table of the leading rail road securities listed at the New Yor Stock Exchange records the number of points de clined dnring the months of October, No- ember and December, 1890. the recovery during 1891, with the decrease from the highest points reached during the current 3 car: Dropped during panic, 1590.

D.&H C.N.J l"!i 8 24i 40 31 In contract to the stock and the money market, there is much to be found of in tense in relation to improved prospects of the state of trade. Out of 24 stable products, it will be found that 11 have increased in price within the last few days or eshibit a marked tendency to increase, ten have not increased, show a tendenev to decrease or have decreased, and that three remain firm and unchanged. Among those which lime increased are wheat, corn, oats, beef, pork and potatoes: while among those which have declined are iron, rails, cojfper, lead and anthracite coal Irom the leading class. One textile is advanced, that is, raw wool, and manufactured iron at Pittsburg, the latter a luobt significant circumstance and one v.hich. if it continues, will have a marked influence upon metal prices generally. Both rnctals and hides are stronger, while crude rubber under control of a syndicate, is bell ing freely to manufacturers who no longer hope that prices will decline in the near future. Prices have declined for raw cot ton and print cloths. BUILDING OPERATIONS SLOW-. " Iiuildiuc ODerations are restricted both East aad Wet, and prices refuse to ad ance. Prices are unchanged for to bacco and voolen cloths. Prices of sugar, bidg subject to control by a sugar trust, mid the so-called sugar king, Claus Spreck cls, have declined rapidly, owing to com petition between the sugar magnates. Here, atleait, there is a majority of leading sta ples advanced in price, or exhibiting laarked tendency to do so, followed by the fact that leading railroad shares have for the second time within the year touched as low a point as during the semi-panic of October and December, 1890. In this one finds almost a complete par allel of the periods preceding the boom of 1S79-1832 and 1887-1890. The duestion there fore arises whether the inference is not a fair on- that the latter half of 1891 will bring with it a healthful increase in the generai volume of business. It is a some what trite saying, of course, that the basis of this iuipioiement, if it comes, will be the large wheat crop of the United States, a crop inch promises to exceed that of any preceding year in this country. Kecent advices from Europe, and which arc as yet unpublished in this country, point out the fact that Europe will require to import not less than 281,000,000 bushels more than it produces. India at best can onlv furnish 33,000,000 bushels for export, and we will say that the United States may have a surplus of exports of 160,000,000 bushels 20,000,000 bushels of which will probably be sent elsewhere than to Europe. A BIG WHEAT DEMAND. This indicates that at best Europe will demand 100,000,000 from countries other than the United States and India, such as Australia, Chile, the Argentine llepublic, Aia Miner and Canada, and the question arifes, hoj- much of an advantage in the prices vi iii such asituation as this offer to the Unit'-d States? It should be added that the ty crop of Germany and .Russia is unprece dentedly short, so much so that the prospect is that the poorer class of people in those countries ti ill be driven to use wheat flour for bread, instead of rye, their staple food. Should tiiis prove to be true to the extent now reported and believed, it will mean that Europe must import a still larger amount of i heat than the total in the fig ures given above. In short, the outlook is that, for the first time in history, the United States has an opportunity to make the price of wheat for the world. With these fears characterizing I the state of trade it isdifncultto doubt that the near future promises an increased vol ume and enhanced prices. HUNG FOR AX ASSAULT. JAMES THOKOUOHGOOD DIES ASSERT ING HIS INNOCENCE. lie Declared on the Gallows That He Was Not Guilty His Little Victim Heard His Voice and at Once Became Terror Stricken. Dover, Del., Aug. 7. James Thorongh- good (colored) was hanged in the jail here at 1:30 this afternoon for assault upon an 8- year-old girl. James Thoroughgood was a negro, 20 years old, a native of Milford,.and had lived in that neighborhood all his life. He married three years ago and had a wife and one child. He had steadfastly denied that he was guilty of the crime for which he was executed, declaring that he was at Frecnwood, about 20 miles away, when the crime was committed. On the 18th of January William Buffiugton, a colored man living near Viola, sent his 8-year-old daughter into that village on an errand. On her way the child was intercepted by Thoroughgood, who carried her into the woods and assaulted her. Thoroughgood was captured at Harrington. When his victim had sufficiently recovered to stand the journey to Dover, 'he was identified by her, and the identification was supplement ed by strong circumstantial evidence. Thoroughgood was led from him cell moaning and shouting, and leaning heavily on the arms of his spiritual adviEers, Kev. Dr. Gibson and Dr. Jackson. He was scarcely able to walk to the scaffold. Hector Gibson read the service for the man, but his voice was drowned in Thoronghgood's pit eons appeals to heaven. As he walked he kept his eyes straight above him shouting: "Glory to God !" He was assisted up the steps to the scaffold, averting his eyes from the noose. After every preparation had been made for the drop, Rev. Jackson asked: "Did you do it; yon know what I mean?" The negro on" the verge of cternitv re plied: "I am not guilty." Just as the black cap was drawn over his head Thor oughgood shouted: "lam not guilty. Thank God, and as I stand here on the scaffold, I declare to God I have never done injury to men or women, living. God have mercy on my soul." Scarcely had the words died away when the hatchet fell and the doomed man shot through the trap. There was some muscu lar contortions, but his neck was broken and he was pronounced dead iii 6 minutes and cut down in 15 minutes. The hanging was witnessed onlv by the jurymen, the legal witnesses and the press representa tives. Thoroughgood's victim, little Louisa Buffington, came in from Viola with her mother during the mormnjj, but conld not be induced to enter the jaih though efforts were made to get her to confront Thorough good. When she came near enough to hear his voice, she became so terror-stricken that it was necessary to remove her.

Chicago, Aug. 7. On a bill filed in the Circuit Conrt by Fred Harvey, Judge Driggs has issued an injunction restraining the Atchison, Topeka and Sante Ee Kail road from running dining cars upon its lines west of the Missouri river, covered by a contract for feeding passengers upon any points of this portion of the road, and re lusing to stop its passenger trains at com plainant's hotels and lunch rooms. Harvey represents that the plan now con trolled by his lunch system covers from 2,200 to 2,500 miles of road and has cost him f 150,000; that he is conducting 20 hotels and eating houses at which he feeds daily about 2,500ipersons and 24 lunch rooms fee'ding as many more, that he established them in the face of great obstacles, such as incursions by hostile savages and the raids of gamblers and desperadoes, and that now the road threatens to put on dining cars and give his places the go-by. The railroad people claim that the contract does not debar them from putting on dining cars and will move lor a dissolution of the injunction. THE VIEWING BOAEDS.
