Grain and Flour Continue to Ehoir ft Drooping Tendency. LATE CHOP GOSSIP aXD TRADE K0TE8 Saturday, Sept. a, A gradual enlargement of commercial operations was noticeable this week, the increase being most marked after "Wednes day. Mail orders were large Thursday and Friday, and the agents who returned to-day ironi a canvass of their territory brought with them unusually large orders. According to the bank exchanges the volume of trade was 3.7 per cent larger than last week, and 16.5 ncr cent larger than lor the correspond ing week of 1891. The leading influences, especially the iron trade, were more stimulating, and merchants were figuring on large sales this au tumn, particularly during the ex position season. The only cloud on the lniIne5s horizon was the possibility ofa visitation of choleia, but It was not Riven moie than passing comment excepting by those who passed through the visitation of '54 and know something about how such plagues demoralize trade. CO lar us tne fiapios xeio vuuwiuuu, breadstufls were weaker, flour was loner, sugar higher, colleo Unsteady, provisions Ion er, rice firmer and dairy products were well held at the recent advances. There was more strength in molasses and syrups: eggs and poultry rnngod somewhat higher and all descriptions of vegetables were scarce and firm at advanced prices. Collections were fair In all seotlons save those that have beon afflicted with strikes, and irom these there was little complaint, as credit wcro greatly curtailed when the troubles commenced. Latest Crop Gossip. Prime's report: Temperature higher. All danger from frost past for present. Reports from over 50 stations in Southern Minnesota, 5outh DaLo:a, Iowa and Xebraska show two third" wheat crop in stack, balance In shock. Very little wheat threshed. Yields so inr Indicate 75 pei cent of last season. Quality much pooler Last year quality unliormly No. 1 grade; this year not more than 20 per cent will grade No. 1; remainucr 2, 3 and rejected. Thero is a difference of opinion as to movement at piesent price', but there will lie no market rush unless there Is an improvement In price-. Farmers hate to accept 50 cents for w heat, but considering the uniformly low quality of crop, p-lces will be belowSD cents at a great manv stations, and it seems to be the general disposition' anions: farmers to put off needing as late as posslble.and in fact later than usual, as the general impression Is that enrlv sown wheat does not ihow up as well as late sown. Verv little land south of Ohio, Te-inessee and Kentucky has been plowed owing to dry weather. Corn dam need considerablv by drought. large move ment or wheat lallcn off. Tne members of the American Cranberry Growers' Association, in session at Philadel phia, say that the cranberry crop is much llchterthan In previous sears. Tne esti mated crop of cranbciries this season for the -whole countiv is placed at 700,000 bush els, or 00,000 bushe.s le-s than the crop of last year. The growers of New Jersey are greatly disheartened over the results of their -v ear's labor. The crop will tcarcelv reach" 100 000 bushels, a falling off of 50.CO0 Jromlast jear. F-irmers are evidently shipping a larger proportion of the pooler qualities of strain nod teeds than usual and holding back the better grades, with a view to higher prices befoie the close or the year. The grain crops of "Europe will exceed tlio-e of 1S9L but will be somewhat below an aveiaio. The hay crop of the United States will be quite n large one, while there is a shortace in Europe. The Sugar Situation. Willet & Gray's weekly sugar circular says: Net cash quotations are: Muscova dos, raw sugar, 3c; centrifugals, 3.56c: granu . luted, 4 71c Receipts during the week; Si,S( tons. Meltings, 40,000 tons. Total stock in four ports, 113,543 tons, against 130.9S3 tons last week, and 143.K4 at same time last year. Total stock In all the prin cipal countries, 761,010 tons, against 763,224 tons last year. The causes of this rapid adancemraw sugar have been the small available supply to meet the vorr large con sumption of the country, and the possibility that the delivery of a portion of such supply might be delayed bv quarantine regulations in cousequence of the cholera now raging in Europe. Importers' stocks in ew York and In Cuba aro so much leduced that the re finers must look to Europe for a large pro. jHirtion of their fresh supplies and the indications are that the matkec will remain strong lor some time. Mr. Ucht's report shows that 62,500 tons of beetioot susar were shipped or loaded from the 3d to the 20th of August for Amenca and Canada, and char ters taken for 30,000 tons more, for shipment in September. An advance of 5c in refined followed the upward movement in raws. This caused the demand to lall off slightly, but a good busi ness is doing, and the people of the conntry arc receiving their supplies as fast as need ed. The higher grades are still lequlrcdin larger proportions than lormcrly. thus neg lecting the Ion est grades, the prices for which remain unchauged. Buyers may feel assured that present prices will bo main tained, with possibility of lurther moderate advance should raws continue to improvo,as Is now expected. The New York RuUe m says the outbreak of the cholera in Europe has been responsi ble for the late advance and the present strength ol the maiket. Some time ago the agents of th-i Sugar Trust made large pur cnases of beet sugar In Europe, said to ag gregate 90.000 tens. This naturally strength ened the markets there. These sugars are now being shipped to this country, but do lays are beafg encountered on account or the stringcnTiquarantlne regulations, and the trust has, therefore been obliged to pur chase cane-sugars hero at such urices as the holders have seen lit to exact. The advance in prices of raw sugats thus brought about has not, lion ever, resulted to the detriment of the trust, lor it at once advanced the prices of refined sugars to correspond with the advance in raws. Still hisher prices are likely to prevail if the vessels now bringing beet i-usar to this port are to be detained lor a lung time at a uurantlne. Hoc Pacltlng.

The news of the arrival of another cholera ship at New Tork had been received before business opened on the Board of Trade this morning and this, to gether with the weaker cables, reported fine weather, the anticipated increase of 3,250,000 bushels in the visible supply on Monday, the extreme weakness In corn, and the fall ing off or 1,500.000 bushels in exports for the week compared with last week, caused a lower opening in wheat. At the outset the feeling nas inclined to be panicky, but the lact that wheat was already low and that all adverse conditions had already been pretty thoroughly discounted, led to freebnying by the cooler-headed traders. This not only prevented any further de cline, bnt caused astoady appreciation in values until the loss at the opening was about recovered. S.iorts, too, took advan tage of the opening break to cover th elr con tract and make sure of nroflts which some nnIoreeen development in thecholerasitun tion might deprive them ot be Tore the next s?ssionoftho board on Tuesday morning Monday being Labor Day, aleial holiday, with no session of the board. The trading in all pits was light and largely confined to evening up deals against holiday contin gencies. - The appreciation in the early trading In wheat was assisted by telegrams which re ported the cholera outbreak on the steamer less serious in Its fatalities than at first re lated and by reports of heavy and damaging rains in the Northwest. The market then became hesitating and nervous, fluctuating frequently within a compKratlvely narrow ItttlJO Until TlfUir tllA nnrl nr .I.a .,ln when a report was received that two cases or cholera had appeared lu Baltimore, This I caused a stampede to sell and the ma.rk.tC I broke quickly, nearly a cent, closing weak and practically at inside figures. December opened Jo lower at 76o, ad vanced to 76&c, hold steady for a time, slumped to 7c and closed at 760. Sep tember touched 72o, the lowest figure reached In several years.. Corn opened very weak on the oholera scare, a reduotlonof one penny in price at Liverpool, the heavy receipts to-day and expected large arrivals on Tnesday. For a time this cereal seemed without friends, and there was a beavy selling pressure. Opening sales were at a decline of Jfc, com pared with yesterday's last tales, and a further decline of Jo was at oncomade. Then, In sympathy with the advanoe In wheat and on reports of colder weather, with probable frosts in the corn belt, a gradual appreciation set In, which, with immaterial reactions, carried values up to a point which covered the lots from yester day's close, with something to spare. But the advanoe did not bold; longs were free sellers and shorts were putting out new lines. The result was slumplness and finally a sharp decline when wheat went off on the Baltimore bholera scare. There was some reooverv at the last or. covering by shorts. Arohnd the opening Ootober sold at 47c and .4GJio, advanced to 47c, broke to 46c, and oTosed at 47o. Oats were rather quiet and weak in sym pathy with the lower prices for wheat and corn, and closed with a loss of Jilc Traders in the provision pit at the open ing seemed to feel that the cholera scare nad been tully discounted by the recent heavy decline In hog products. In addition to this, the reoelpts of hogs were very light and priees were again higher. Pork opened un changed at tlO 35 for Octobor, advanced to tlO 47K. sold off with grains to (10 25 and closed at (10 30, a loss compared with yester day's last price of So.

Minneapolis The wheat market went to pieces this moraine on cholera news. De cember opened at 73Jc and it sold up to 73c and down to 73c. The weakest point in the market was near the close, as there was a general desire to get out of holding on the part of scalpers before the adjournment be cause of the uncertainty of what might liarjDen to-dav and next Tuesdav. when the boards of the country will resume opera tions. There was a General desire to ad journ the local board until Tuesday, but the firesence or cash wheat would not admit of t, so a session will be held on Monday. The casb market did not show much firmness on any "line. New No. 1 Northern sold prin cipally at 71KC. with futures above and a few below that price. This was a little weaker than yesterday. Old No. 1 Northern was considerably weaker, and 77c was about the top for lots. No. 2 Northern sold on quiet range, running as high as 71c. Lower grades had to be urged a little to offect sales. There was some damp wheat among the offerings this morning of recent threshings. Keceipts or wheat here were 175 cars and Dnluth and Superior 80 cars. Clo: May.

Coarse ot the Market During the JVeek Final Sales and Prices. Transactions on 'Change for the week end ing to-day were 3,233 shares of stock and $30, 000 bonds. The rise in prices, whloh hid been In progress for several weeks, was checked by the oholera soare, but only those shares In whloh Boston and New York are inter ested Westlnghouse Electric and Philadel phia Company suffered much of a decline, and even these closed on a rally from the low points, the former making the most pronounced recovery. Street railway shares declined somewhat, but the de clines were for fractional amounts only and the steadying and recovering process was quite as noticeable as in Electric ana Philadelphia Company. Airbrake and Switch and 81gnal sympathized with the general weakness, and Underground Cable and United States Glass also softened some what. As stated, the arrival of plague ships off New York was the prlncinal canse of the lower prices, the market here sympathizing with the weakness in the East; but a re action was due in all the aotive shares, and it would probably have materlallz. d a little later cholera or no cholera. The appearance or the plague off the! coast merely precipitated the re action, which was helped along by short sales under cover of the general scare. The prompt action of the Qovernment with re spect to quarantine measures restored con fluence in a measure, and until the dreaded Asiatic scourge actually lands and gets a firm foothold there Is not likely to be any panicky movements in stocks and bonds or any of the commodities traded in on the produce exchanges. At this writing the outlook is against avisltatlon, and buyers of securities, grain and provisions at the current comparatively low prices will un doubtedly find themselves In the possession of handsome profits when a normal condi tion of affairs again prevails. This is a time for cool heads. A sacrifice of sound securi ties now will be regretted later on. The woods are fnll of bargains, and it the scare revives they will be as numerous as colonels in Kentucky. "Buy on tbo breaks" was never better advice than now. A steadier tone was apparent on 'Change to-day and some of the shares, notably Phila delphia Company, Eleotrlc second preferred, Dnquesno traction and Union Switch and Signal, exhibited a'strong recovering ten dency.

AN DPWAR6 REACTION Led by the Coalers, sngnr and Soma of the Specialties Fresh Arrivals of Plague Ships and this Publication of Bad Bank Statement Without Effect. New York. Sept. BL "With a better understanding of the question at issue be tween the Beading and the Pennsylvania Bailroads over the toiis on coal, there was a disposition on the part of local operators to undo the damage they had done in the prices of the coal shares yesterday, and there was a material rally in all of them. The cholera scaro has evidently bad its day, as the report that seveial new cases bad been brought into port failed to create even a ripple of Interest in the board. The manipulators of the industrials were again at work and were prominent buyers of sugar, though the Improvement was prob ably legitimate taking into consideration "the possible interruption of supplies aDroad. There wns an attempt to take advantage of further liquidation at the opening, but, n hile first prices n ere all from yt to per cent lower than those of last evening.-offer-Ings of stocks were limited, and the shorts were compelled to tnrn their attention to buying to cover immediately. r The activity in Beading, Sugar and St Panl was still marked, but the recoveries In prices wore most 'conspicuous among those shares which have bean unduly depressed by late drive, and the Coalers, Sugar and several specialties like Pullman, soored handsome gains on a much smaller business than sufficed to depress them. Beading rallied to 55. bnt Joranv IVntml rnsnS to ,129X: Delaware and Hudson 2 to lsi, and .Lackawanna 2X to 135, Sugar, In the mean time, rose irom 108 to lllji, closing at 1106 The unfavorable bank tatemea bad bo apparent influence and the markot closed quiet bnt firat, with most stocks at fractions better than last evening.

Colored cottons are higher in most Instances. The shipment of goods was aotive. The coming week should show turther activity with jobbers except as it maybe affected by the laot ofa holi day.

Special Bogers, Brown & Co.. say: There has boen another active week without materially affecting prices. It is quite probable that the tonnage of sales made by Cincinnati house? Is as large as was ever recorded for the last week in August. The first days of September likewise start off with a large inquiry. The demand is not confined to any particular territory, but is general and covers all grades of iron. There is still disappoint ment in prices, as every effort to secure an advanco is unsuccessful. This condition will last until some of the surplus stocks at Southern and other furnaces have been ma terially reduced. If the present demand is maintained through 30 days it will make heavy inroads on the accumulation, and certainly ought to start an ad vance in 'prices. It remains to be seen whether the activity will continue. The feature In the market that gives the most encouragement is tint the demand comos up irom the bottom. That Is to say, the trade in all forms of finished iron is larger than was expected, and presses upon manufacturers, who In tnrn call for more pig Iron than they expected to. This gives a healthy appearance to the Improvement. There is a complete absence of the specula tive spirit. Toward the close of the week negotiations are in pi ogress foi some very lare blocks of iron, and it the deals are consummated the effect will be to stiffen up the views of the largest sellers. In charcoal irou there has been a quiet tone, but stocks are being steadily reduced and consumption is folly maintained. The cholera scare has led to some hesitation in making future calculations, hut it will hardly be a strong enough influence to overcome the tendency toward revival in general trade. Money is somewhat firmer, but there is an abundance still for the wants of legitimate business. HO CHARGE AT CHICAGO, Small Orders Continue- to Be the Main Features of the Market. Chicago, Sept 4. fipeciaf.-Bogers, Brown & Merwin say: There has been no partic ular change in conditions since our report of last week. Small orders continue to be the main feature, though here and there large buyers are making inquiries and evidence a willingness to place additional contracts when they can bar at satisfactory fixuros. While regular quotations remain unchanged a good deal of coke iron is being offered for early shipment at material concessions in price. This Is on the part or furnaces which have accumulated large stocks and find It desirable to move metal on hand. Consumers with a row exceptions have reached the con clusion that there is no prospect of higher prices, and that if they haven't covered their requirements they will save money by wnltlng until later in the season. While present Indications point to nothing in the way of any early material improve ment, tho large cutting-down of production while consumption goes on unabated is likely to bring about changed conditions earllor than many expect. Lake Snporlor charcoals remain unchanged. There is virtually no buying going on in this direc tion. Large consumers have covered their requirements up to the end of the present year, and in many cases beyond. Little Cholera Fear at Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Sept 4. SpertoiJ Bogers Brown & Co. say: The pig iron market shows decided signs of improvement, both in re gard to the volume of business and prices in sight Options are being freely accepted, and buyers not infrequently say that they believe the bottom has decidedly been reached. Thero is nothing that we can see that will prevent an advance in finished and raw material, unless it is the cholera scare, and we doubt if even the presence ot cholera in this country would cause more than a momentary stagnation or bnsiness. As the season is so lar advanced we can hardly look for any dire results this year. Cotton. New York. Sent 3.

Pittsburg parents and tsachers should see that the store of nervous vitality acquired In the sum mer vacation Is not impaired by too close atten tion to school duties. Above all, they should see that the nervous system is strong and vigorous. No educator has a wider circle of friends than Principal L. L. Camp, of Dwlght School, New Haven, Conn. The following letter is especially pertinent and valuable at this time. He writes: "I have taken several bottles of Paine's Celery Compound, not because I was sick, but because I wanted to keen well. I believe In keeping well. and can do so best by the nse of this helper of nature." No better proof of the purity of this medicine and Its fitness for the delicate nervous system of the child can be shown than the experience of A. W. Fisher, a report er on Iho Dally Times-Press, of Bay City, Mich. He writes: "Sly children, Florence, Clarence and Demott, are now all enjoying excellent health since they used Palne's celery compound, though before they were weak and run down. I credit their strength and vigor entirely to their liberal nse of the com pound." When there Is a complaint or headache, loss of appetite, languid feelings, sleeplessness and Indi gestion, whether in adult or child, there should be no delay in giving Palne's celery compound. It Is not a sarsaparllla, nervine or bitters, but a phy sician's prescription. It Is entirely vegetable, perfectly harmless, andtakes the weak and nerv ous and makes, them strong and well. Teachers, scholars and all who are in need of a strength-giver win find that nothing equals the means which Principal Camp nsed to keep well. ' ESTABLISHED 1807.
