Con tract in sin Ho jn. u . The most Important feature of the market' situation Is the advance of $5 per ton In calf. It la generally believed to be the forerunner of other advances, which la due season will elevate the price to the exorbitant Azures which prevailed before the recent conflict be tween the trust and the local distrib utors. The principal feature of Interest in the local market situation yesterday was the advance of ?5 per ton in the price of salt. This ad vance Is of pretty healthy proportions as It is. but the Interesting feature of the situation lies In the fact that a commodity that can be so manipulated as to cause a decline of JIG per on in the space of a few weeks can as easily be manipulated for an advance of correspond ing or greater proportions. Five dollars Is a gocd starter, but from appearances It is only a 6tarter, and the additional $11 per ton will probably be tacked on In duo season. In order to liave it operative before come of the other cargoes now afloat got close enough to hand to cut a flgur6 In tfre situation. Now that the trust lion and the distributing lamb have lain down together with the lamb Inside), it is staled that the advance -is due to a scarcity,' bnd to the fact that the price was too low. The new rate Is effective today, and may last a week before another turn of the screw Is made. Aside from this, and an advance of CO cents la package coffees, there were no changes of consequence in the local grocery markets this week. In produce some weakness is shown along certain lines, and trade is somewhat re etrlcted. as it usually Is at this season of the year, when the city population Is at low ebb and the farmers are all at work. "WHEAT The wheat market has been very weak, and even a reduction of over a cent a bushel In freight rates was Insufficient to stem the downward course 6f prices. The East is low on liberal receipts and a light foreign. demand, and Europe remains indifferent so long as there is enough In sight ior immedi ate requirements, and a big crop is coming on. Local- exporters are not making much of an effort to buy, so long as the market is In lis present unsettled state, and quotations are, to a large extent, nominal. Exporters quote about Crtgeife. for "Walla Walla, and for old crop stock the mills are reported to be paying more money. Freights remain Inactive, with no new char ters reported. Twenty-flve shillings is bid, but owners are not disposed to accept this figure as yet The Winter wheat harvest Is well un der way all over the Northwest, and while the yield In some localities Is disappointing, the output as,A whole promises to be nearly as large as that of last year. London advices under date of 3uly 18 re view the crpp and market situation as follows: The brilliant Weather -has had a most 'bene ficial effect on the crops both here. and. In France, and has considerably affected the sen timent of the trade, which at the moment docs not regard the premier cereal with a very friendly eye. There Is no doubt that the great Improvement In the weather has played havoc with the calculations of the French im porters, as it has brought the crop appar ently fully a -week nearer, and as spot prices are several shillings above the period (not much later) when the new crop will be avail able, it is casllj; understood how the consum ers will strive to their utmost to work on the lowest possible margin of supplies, and the consequence is that some portions of the white "wheat cargoes- recently Imported are still un sold, and owners are trying to resell to Eng land, whilst a steamer originally destined for St. .Nazal ro has been diverted to London. Reports recently published respecting the Austro-Hungarlan crop are of quite a glowing character, and it would seem that the dual em pire Will be able this season to export a fair quantity, the bulk of It, so doubt, coming in the shape ofrflour. Tho latest reports from Boumania, Bulgaria and Russia .are also very satisfactory, and an Interesting feature has been the sale of cargo of Bussian wheat of the new crop on a good old crop sample, at 9s Sd for August-Sep tember shipment. Canada sends glowing accounts, and It has been rumored that the quantity available for export will reach the extraordinary total of 10,000,000 quarters, which. It true, would jneet a very large portion of the .British require ments, as the bulk of It wouldo doubt find its way to this country. In the meantime. however, the consumption of wheat continues on a steddy scale, and with comparatively light stocks, moderate quantity on passage and week' ly shipments, which average about 250,000 quar ters below estimated requirements, there lsojo prospect of pressure of supplies in the imme diate future, so that we do not anticipate material fall In values, although it would, no doubt, require a decided break In the weather to bring about any Improvement. In reviewing- its crop correspondence for the week ending, last Saturday, the Cincinnati Prlco Current says: The past week has been favorable in the main both for growing crops and for farm work, without any marked change from the conditions of the preceding week- The thresh ing Cf u inter wheat . has progressed, -with slight hindrances by rain, mostly around the lake regions, and the threshings from the shock are. "being marketed freely, partly be cause match of it is damp and needs working before ready for milling. Many reports stale that while the wheat does not trade welL nevertheless it mills well. The reports of yield are generally fulfilling earlier expectations. Tho Spring wheat crop has practically rea h"d maturity, and harvesting has com menced in the Southern section. During the week there have been some complaints of rust in Southern Minnesota and slight damage by storms, but, on the whole, the situation sol dom has been more favorable foe large yields. and if rains are not excessive a fine quality is looked for. Foreign crop reports have, been" somewhat variable during the week, but favor able on the whole, and the world's wheat crop of 10C2 will likely be slightly above the aver age. WOOL. The wool market continues Arm, but there Is such a comparatively small amount of the clip still In first hands that but little Interest Is shown in the local market. The clip is said to have moved out more thoroughly than ever before at this date, and the prices realized were very remunerative. The Eastern wool market is thus reviewed by the New York Journal of Commerce, under date of August 2: In the wool market, though many inquiries have been made, actual transactions do not show much improvement . over previous weeks. PriVes. however, remain very firm, and present Indications are that they will not go any lower. The principal demand in evidence during the past week has been for fine and medium grade wools, with handlers of the raw material holding very firmly to first figures. There seems to be more Inquiry from manu facturers who were running low In their sup piles, and though trying to obtain fresh ma terial as cheaply as' possible, liave- been com pelled to take some supplies at holders' prices in order to fill pressing needs. The one favorable factor in tho situation is that notwithstanding the wool In the country and In dealers' bands, it Is probable that Bup plies In manufacturers' warehouses are smaller than for many seasons. This has been proved to & certain extent by tho Inquiries. Where manufacturers want wool, they want it In hurry, which is pretty good evidence that atodes show decided dwindling. 'Although there is a fair amount of wool in the market, holders are In a position to await higher prices, which they anticipate before long. The inquiries for pulled wool have con tinued during the week, and one or two fair transactions are reported to have been con summated. Texas and territory wools have also been in request, but buyers -views have not "been up to .sellers', resulting In d restrict ed business. In foreign wools, carpet stocks are firmly held, but tho demand does not eeem to have Increased to any marked extent. Turk ish and Buselan wools are quiet, with little demand. HOPS. Reports from the hopyards continue of the most favorable nature, and the outlook now Indicates a yield of about 00,000 bales of a very good grade cf hops. But. little contract ing is now being done, as the growers who are not already tied up have abounding faith in higher markets later. In the East matters are drifting along under easy sail,, and, mail advices under date of August 2 have the fol lowing: Owing to tho extreme views of growers on tho Coast, dealers were not Willing to make further contracts of importance. The demand from brewers continued slow, they being light buyers of both 1001s and old olds, and alio were slow in making 'contracts for 1002 hops, not being ready to pay prices now ruling. Weather reports were, more favorable from Ot sego and Franklin Counties, but no changes were reported in the crop outlook. Crop re ports from the Coast continued good. Cable advices received from London reported as fol lows: "If weather is favorablo for growing, yop estimate 400,000 cwt.: if weather is un favorable, cannot reach 380,000 cwt. The blue is backward and weather is unfavorable for growing crop." Mall advices received from the Continent, dated July 22, said that Germany and Alsace-Lorraine will have a fair hop crop, but that Burgundy, North France and Belgium will have only about half of last year's heavy yield. The Coopcrstown Freeman's Journal, of July 3L sayB of crops: "The vine has continued to make a rapid growth, and we look for a little over one-half of last year's crop." Banlc Clearlngrs.

IXG STRENGTH. Overextension of Credits the Only Factor Thnt Threaten Dnd ConscqVences. NEWTOBK. Aug. 6. Today; s stock market continued to demonstrate, in a negative way. the underlying strength of the financial and 'business situation In the country. Trading was mostly Idle. The few stocks which were strong did not mako an Impressive showing, and did not alter the listless tone of the- mar ket In general. But It is dear that there is no eagerness to sell stocks." With no buyers on a large scale in view, holders, show them solves content to carry stocks and wait for a more active demand. Th6 very Idleness ot tho market Is a reassuring fact Overextension of credits in speculative ventures Is the one fac tor that threatens bad consequences. Now there seems to be a common agreement to await the satisfaction of the coming require ments of the country for moving crops. All authorities are agreed that this requirement will be unufually large this year. Today's small export of gold was obviously a mercantile transaction, and It was broadly intimated that something equivalent to a premium was paid by those who are to get It. The nearer approach of the period of safety for the year's crops confirms the confidence in their abundance. With plentiful harvests and a large surplus of our products for export, any anxiety over" the liquidation of our float ing foreign indebtedness, without embarrass ment, is quieted. The decision ot the Stock Exchange to close on Saturday, for no other cause than tho coronation of the King of Eng land, is testimony to the general acquiescence' in the present dullness of the trading in se curities. A demand for the Gould Southwestern was tho most conspicuous feature of the day's trading. The heavy buying of Texas & Pacific was by the same brokers whp have been act ives in Missouri Pacific for some time past, and the response of other roads in the group was purely sympathetic The operations were supposed to be for account of the same people who have followed the upward movement In these stocks from the start. Hocking Coal made a Jump on inspired Intimations that large new Interests were . to enter the prop erty and expand Its field of activity. lioeking Valley was bought on the aavantago bitumi nous iroal is enjoying from the paralysis of the anthracite trade. The movement in Sugar was characteristic of that stock- in 'a period of dullness in the general market, and was ascribed to the pros pect of an active- season in the frult-cannlng trade. The only stock which seemed to be directly affected by the excellent corn crop reports was Atchison, of which the absorption was very large. Thero were a number of minor stocks to show strength. Brooklyn Transit was heavy, on the poor report of earnings for the fiscal year. St. Louis & San Francisco re flected some disappointment over the deferred announcement of the details of its new ac qulrements. The express stocks made further easy advances on light transactions. The .mar Uet closed moderately active, but irregular. Early firmness la. bonds gave way to some reaction. Total sales, par value, $1,010,000. United States bonds were unchanged on the last call.

London Travel It Is to be feared that many English and American travelers In France expect to find the samfe laws and regulations obtaining on FrencH railways as they are Accustomed to at horned and -when they find that they are different they are too apt to resent It an attitude which oc casionally results In collisions with the officials. The following' -hints on points of railway customs and 'etiquette in con nection with which trouble often ensues, may not. perhaps, be superfluous. Claims to a, seat The right to a seat, which has been engaged by placing upon it a coat or some other article, has actually been legalized by a recent test case in the French law courts, while this right "In England depends of course sole ly upon custom and cannot be enforced. Not only this, but in France each pass enger is legally entitled to the use of that portion of the rack and floor immediately above and below his seat. Control of windows English travelers often complain of th.e tendency of French travelers to keep the windows closed un ncce$arily. It is-the best policy to put up With this annoyance, as an appeal to the guard will not, as a rule, be successful. His sympathies, are likely to be with his compatriots, who regard the love of Eng lish people for open windows as a foolish fad and one, too, which is dangerous to health. Smoking carriages Tho rule for smok ing on French railway carriages is tho reverse of that which obtains in England. Though carriages for fumcurs are pro vlded, Smoking Is permitted in any car riage with the consent of the occupant, and in practice almost every compart ment except those labeled dames seules is a smoking one. Tips to porters English travelers are apt to inveigh against the greed and ra paclty of Frencn porters, especially at Paris stations. , This is -probably due to ignoroflfce of the fact that at Paris termini tho facteur who fetches a cab from outside 'the station and this Is us tially necessary is entitled to a gratuity. and in Paris one franc is customary, Thl3 being the caso the traveler who pre sents him with a few coppers (which would bo clvlly accepted at a London sta tion) must not be surprised if he is con fronted with black looks. Customs examination At Calais. Bou logne or IHeppe tke traveler should be on his guard agaln2taccopting the services of a man In semi-uniform (not a porter). who will offer to see the traveler's lug gage Jhrough the customs. His, services will cost you a iee 01 zs 1x1. . Mines of "War. Brooklyn Citizen. In several parts of the world a resinous substance, called ozocerite, and bearing considerable resemblance to beeswax, Is found, usually in connection with rock salt and coal. There are deposits in Austria, Russia. Boumania, Egypt, Algeria, Canada and Mexico, but ozocerite has, so far, not -been discovered in sufficient quantities to pay for mining anywhere except In the district of Roryslay, in Austrian Gaucia, and on an island on the west coast -of the Caspian Sea. In mining this mineral wax shafts are sunk until a bed or "nest" of ozocerite !a struck. Then connecting gal lerifs are driven. There is considerable dangfer,. and many lives have been lost in consequence of the sudden forcing up of the soft wax into tho shaft by the enor mous pressure to which it is subjected. It is used largely for manufacturing cercsln. which is employed, together with beeswax for making wax candleeas well as In the manufacture of phonographic cylinders, and many similar purposes.
