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."

STOCKS PROMISE "WELL
DEALINGS SHOW GREAT UXDERLY
. 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.

FRENCH RAILWAY CUSTOMS
A Sent 3lay lie Held by Leaving? a
Coht la It.
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.
