rfPFCIAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Xnw York, Jan. 8. Special telegrams
to Bradstreet't indicate a continuance of dull
ness in mercantile circles generally this
week. Stock-taking has not been univer
sally completed as yet, and where it has
been traveling salesmen are only beginning
to go out after the holidays. Very wide
spread confidence is expressed in the out
look for a good spring trade, with excep
tions at some poiuts in the South. 'Within
another ten days jobbers and others will
hae taken the necessary steps to test the
nature of the spring demand lor staples of
all sorts.
There is no gain in the request for pig
iron as yet, and for anthracite coal prices
have been comparatively weak. Leather
and hides are not in active demand, and
lumber and rubber only moderately so.
Live cattle are dull and featureless, but
hogs at 'Western markets are steady. The
pack at Cincinnati exceeds that of several
preceding years.
Decreases Stilt Shown in Clearings.
The bank clearings at 44 cities throughout
the United States aggregate 555,075,025,000,
fully 7 per cent less than.in 1890, and even
a trifle less than the corresponding total in
1R89. Xew York City's decreased bank
clearings total, it being 60 per cent of the
aggregate for 44 cities, was about 10 per
cent: the total for 43 other cities, reporting
40 per cent of the clearings of the country,
decreased only 2.G per cent in 1891.
Sugar is firm, and wheat and flour hold
their own on the basis of recent quotations.
Available stocks of wheat in the United
States and Canada, both coasts, January 1,
were 7S,056,000 bushels, 18,000,000 and 16,
000.000 bushels, respectively, more than
were held January 1, 1891, and January 1,
1890. Five years ago. however, like stocks
of wheat aggregated 18,000,000 bushels more
than on January 1. 1892, the excess being
chiefly of spring wheat
Drygoods and Its Constituent Material.
The wholesale drygoods trade generally
is -nrpnarittfr to onen snrinp" roods. Cot
ton goods are moving slowly, out stocks are
well cleaned out and prices are steady.
Export demand is light, but shipments of
brown cottons in 1891 exceeded in value
those of 1S90 by almost 1,000,000. Print
cloths at Fall IJiver and Providence
continue to improve and heavy trade is ex
pected in prints lor spring wear. Ging
hams are receiving considerable attention,
but woolen goods are quiet and unchanged
in prices. Cotton has declined 3-lGc on the
week on free crop movement, and the de
pression in general trade throughout heavy
cotton-producing regions in consequence of
this, ig marked. Xo nearby advances in
wool prices is looked for at the East, owing
to large supplies of the foreign product.
Territorial wool is not selling as well as in
December. The demand tor Texas, Oregon
and California wools at Kastern centers is
light
A Ia!r rinanclal Situation.
Speculation in the New York share mar
ket is very active, with marked advances in
quotations and increased participation by
the public. European interests, 'however,
are either passive or have sold stocks, and
the manipulation of specialties and over
speculation by professional operators has
occasioned a sharp reaction, which, how
ever, does not essentially check the im
proving tendency of quotations. The bond
market is active," with a large and steady in
vestment demand, and the ioan market con
tinues to show the effect of a more than
. ample supply of funds. Foreign exchange
lis firm on a large inquiry and limited sup
ply oi bills.
There were 339 business iailures in the
United States this week, ajainst 391 in the
like week a year ago, and 354 two years ago.
Canada has" 40 this week, against a like
number one and two years ago.
Exports of wheatj including flour, are in
creasing again, as per special advices to
Uraditreet's, amounting to 5,321,000 bushels
within a week, a gain of from 50 to GO per
cent over the two preceding weeks, and In
dian corn exports for the week equal 2,646,
000 bushels a jump of 50 per cent within a
week, while those of rve have declined to
21,965 bushels, and of o'ats to 338,570 bush
els, less than one-halt the totals in the week
before.
Trade in Throe Tears Compared.
The probable total output of cereal and
other agricultural produce, metals and min
erals in the United States in the calendar
,year 1891, together with live stock totals,
aromparcd with 1890 and 18S9, and stocks
oncnd January 1, 1892, 1S91 and 1890, are

It. G. Dun Notes Stirring Events.
H. G. Dun & Co's weekly review of trade
says:
The first week after the new year has been
marked liy some striving events. These
changes do not threaten, but promise to
help the legitimate business of the country,
which over-confident speculation at this
time might have embarrassed. The Govern
ment issued this i eek its final statement of
the yield of heat, corn and oats. The yield
of wheat now reported so far, exceedi
previous department estimates, and tlio
price hns dropped sharply, Z cents for the
week, oil sales of only 15,000,000 bushels.
Oats also dropped i cent, but corn rose an
Ji. large exports actually exceeding those
tit wheat for three days ot the week, sustain
ing the price. Pork "products are scarcely
changed. Oil rose 2Jcents, and coffee a .
Cotton has dropped to the lowest price since
early in 1849, iz., 7.44 cents for middling
uplands.
Trade in otner parts of the country Is fair
for the season, the now year's quiet not
linvlug entirelv paused. In Boston business
Is better in some lines. At Philadelphia lib
oral orders are noted for spring materials,
and whilo trade in other branches is now
very light the prospect is considered good.
Baltimoi e reports a health v money market,
and Cincinnati activity in clothing and mod
erate trade in whisky, t Ith a favorable start
for the year.
ISnsiucss at Two Iron Marts.
Cleveland trade is good for the season and
-.rolled iioa In good demand. At Pittelmrg
the outlook: seems better. Pig iron is strong
and finished iron in good demand.
Chicago reports some increase in receipts
of barley, cured meats, cheeso and cattle.
Receipts of oats nearly double last year's;
of flour, corn, rye, and dressed beef, fully
double, And of wheat three times last year's.
Drycoods sales aro llzlit, though payments
are better. Sales of clothing and shoes are
larger than a year ago, and money is in fair
demand with the supply ample for legiti
mate trade.
Milwaukee finds good indications for the
spring trade, and heavy snow helps the lum
ber business. At St. Paul trado is quiet, as
usual, with excellent prospects. At Minne
apolis the car famino is over and the output
of flour 172.000 barrels, against 114.000 barrels
last year, T ith lumber ale of 1891 exceed
ing those of 1S90 by 67,000,000 feet. At St.
Louis cold weather causes better trado in
heavy clothing, and other trade is season
able, the grain blockade having broken.
Trade at Kansas City is quiet and money in
light demand.
The Iron Condition Improved.
The great industries report no important
change, though in iron a large business is
being done and the tone Is improved. Somo
improvement is seen in bar and plates, and
fair business in structural iron. The coal
trade is ragged, though the demand is be
yond all precedent. Less demand is seen
for cdpper. though large sales have occurred.
Tin is caker and lend dull.
The money mat ket has been well supnlied
at this point, and other markets throughout
the North are easier. In brief, the business
prospects of the country aro remarkably
favorablo for the beginning of a new year,
excepting at the Sonth. and while the de
pression in that section may considerably
affect some trades and branches of manu
facture, the uplifting influence of large
Northern crops and of unprecedented for
eign demand for Northern products gives
substantial ground fortho great confidence
which prevails.
STE0KG TESTIMONY AT VALLEJ0.
Evidence Folnt Blank Against Chilean
Soldiery at Valparaiso.
Vaixejo, CAT, Jan. 8. At the investi
gation into the assault upon the sailors of
the cruiser Baltimore at Valparaiso Charles
Langer, a seaman, testified that he was in
the International Hotel with Johnson, who
yesterday gave evidence directly implicat
ing the men-of-war's police and soldiery in
the killing of Boatswain Jlate Itiggins.
Langer's testimony to-day was even stronger
than Johnson's. According to Langcr,
when Iliggius rose the first time, two police
men came up, drew sliort swords and
knocked him down aiain. They then stood
back and let the crowd stab and beat him.
Biggins seemed to be asking protection of
the police when they knocked him donrn.
Afterward a squad of soldiers approached,
marching bv twos, under command of
a mounted officer. They marched to within
six feet from where Johnson was holding
Biggins in his arms. There they halted
and the first two soldiers leveled their
rifles and fired at the two American
sailors.
"I was about 13 feet off to one side,"
said Banger. "No one was between me and
them, the crowd being back of the soldiers
at that moment. 2so other shots were fired
by any one. I saw the soldiers distinctly
level their rifles at the Baltimore men and
fire. The crowd had drawn back, then
soldiers came up, leaving a clear passage
between Biggin and the soldiers. After
the first shot was fired the soldiers pressed
forward a little, and I could not see the
second rifle fired, but am sure it was one of
the leading soldiers that fired."

COTTON PLANTERS IN EAHNEST.
All Papers Read at TUelr Convention Given
to the Resolution Committee.
Memphis, Jan. 8. That the cotton
farmers of the South are terribly in earnest
in their endeavor to solve the problem of
over-production, was evinced by the en
thusiastic meeting of delegates to the con
vention of the Mississippi Valley Cotton
Growers' Association, which was called to
order this morning by Ira G. Halloway,
President of the Association. About G00
delegates from Tennessee, Arkansas,
Mississippi, Alabama and North Carolina
were present. Prominent among the other
spectators were Governor James P. Eagle,
of Arkansas, Governor Buchanan, of
Tennessee, and "Private" John M. Allen,
of Mississippi.
Colonel Stone, of Mississippi, moved that
the papers that were read be referred to the
Committee on Bcsolutions to be incor
porated in a memorial to the people. He
was opposed to the word "resolutions," for
the bone and sinew of the country might
ask vhat right had the convention to pass a
lot of resolutions. He favored an jippeal to
the people. Colonel Godwin favored pass
ing resolutions, then dispersing and going
home to work their crops. He advocated
forming local associations in every county.
Then followed a debate, with the result that
a motion prevailed to turn over to the Com
mittee on Bcsolutions all papers sent to the
convention.
PEACE BETWEEN TICKEE COMPANIES.
Tlie Peculiar One-Sided riasis Upon Which
It Was Reached.
Xew York, Jan. 8. nfriaZ.i Peace
reigned between the ticker companies to
day. The Gold and Stock Company is to
pay the Exchange $100 a day for the official
quotations furnished by the Xcw York
Stock Quotation Company to the Gold and
Stock. The 5100 is to he handed over at
the close of each day's business. The Stock
Exchange reserves the right to revise the
Gold and Stock's list of subscribers, and
strike off all customers ot whom it does not
approve.
included in the Gold and Stock's custo
mers are the Consolidated Stock and Petro
leum Exchange and many hotels, saloons
and sporting joints. So the Consolidated is
still at the mercy of the elder Exchange,
and itmust look out and not do too much
business and thus anger the ancient institu
tion. The agreement jvas formally reached
this morning, 3nd the Gold and Stock's
wires were immediately replaced in the
Stock Exchange.
THE NEW BEEWEEY TEUST.
Its Name JIas Not Keen Chosen, Dut the
Movement Is on Foot.
Cincinnati, O., Jan. 8. Twelve brew
eries in Cincinnati, Covington and Newport
have agreed to form a combination similar
to that of the "Whisky Trust, to improve the
quality of their product and to reducing ex
penses of production and delivery. Their
combined capacity is about 3,000,000 Imrrels
per annum, and their capital amounts to
about 52,500,000.
The new combination proposes to increase
its capital stock to 5,000,000. It is possi
ble that some of the breweries will be closed
if it shall be found more economical to do
so. The new combination has not yet de
cided upon a name, but the organization
will soon be perfected.
