A HOPEFUL PROGNOSTICA
TION. One of the most demoralizing
and vicious practices in the com
mercial transactions of our coun
try, has been the speculating upon
the products of the: husbandry.
Legitimate transactions in produce
has really been of small moment
in comparison with the specula
tive transactions, arid buying and
selling on futures has formed the
bulk of business in the large trade
enters.
It will be a source of satisfac
tion, to all producers tit least, to
know that indications point fcto a
better state of affairs in this parti
cular. The New York Tribune
says : "The members of the 'l'ro
" duce Exchange are rending with
interest a tabulated statement,!
prepared by anjoflicial of jthe Ex
change, showing the decline in
the transactions there recorded.
Three years ago the recorded sales
of wheat amounted to 1 ,727,707,100
lnishels, or more than three times
the entire quantity produced in
the country, buIast year it fell to
i;i23,148,fi00 bushel-, or little more
than tYvice the entire crop. Sales
of corn were 020,000,000 bushels in
IRS,'!, but had fallen to 2.":;,(X)0,000
in 1S81. Sales of oats were 242,
000,000 bushels in '1883, and iVll to
90,000,000 Jast year. Sales of lard
were 5,lo!,7t2 tierces in ISS::, and
8,444,40.") only three years ago. but
fell last year to 1 .02':,85." tierces.
It is complained, moreover, that
even these reduced transactions
do not indicate the full extent of
loss in business to the members of
the Exchange. Formerly a great
part of the buying and selling was
for account of the public: now the
brokers, f i r want of other occupa
tion, do a great part of the trading
themsejves, and seek to make up
for the absence of customers by
lietting with each other.
It seems appropriate to ask
what good ever was done by swell
ing the nominal sales of wheat to
nearly 1,728,000,000 bushels.' Only
45,000,000 bushels of actual wheat
came to New York during the en
tire year 1 S87," when the sales were
so large, s that the quantity nom
inally sold was nearly forty times
the quantity actually handled.
-When fjK'cnlators used to talk
about the blessings of "a large
market" tho dear 'riublic was
' sometimes 'impressed, hut Yvhat
good was ever tfon'f!ly' selling forty
times over alf the wheat 'that came
to this city?' 5 ti public un
derstanding that about one sale in
forty retr&tehtd business, arid
the rest Hverer mere' gambling oh
the price?rid1n tliat era of 'wild
betting: a grekt-aaany. merchants,
arid eoinfc ''ruisted 'officials, ' were
ruined in!'fibn6i? arid in pocket.
Can there'uetoeritionl any good
accomplisd ' to compensate for
these obvious" evils?"
The members of Ihe ' Produce
Exchange : may be V justified : in
mourning: - the decline in the
volume of lMtelneM. but tlie eple
of the country,5 arid' especially the
producers'; whose liard ' labor and
close economy gives these specula
tive produce exchange men the
fortieth part' of the foundation for
their collossal "business," will
have good" and certain reason to
rejoice. Money put into farms or
factories, mills or mines, may pro
duce something, and thus add to
the supply of things for human
need to the actual wealth of the
country. " But1 money employed
in buying arid ' Belling products,
solely for the purpose of getting a
profit out of somebody else, with
out regard to the necessary' move
ment from producer to consumer,
cannot in any way add to the
wealth of the country or the health
of legitimate trade.
Perhaps no action of the Inter
national American Conference,
! still in session in Washington, will
be more commended than the one
in favor of the construction of
railroad connecting all or the
majority of the nations represent
ed in this Conference." It is pro
Ised that an international com
mission of engineers shall be
constituted to study the question
in all its bearings, to investigate
the possible routes, compare their
advantages, etc. In this great
work railwavs now in existence
will q used as far as possible, and
one object to be aimed at will be
the uniting of the principal cities
in the vicinity of the route. The
feasibility of a railroad connecting
North and South America is gen-
efaJly conceded, and no one can
doubt that, sooner or later, it will
he built either y private enter
prise or as an international under
taking.
The minister of education in
Fiance has issued an order to ex
punge from the histories of that
country the portions referring to
the reign of Henry IV, the vacant
places to )e filled with dots. Prob
ably he could not have hit upon a
more effective way of promulgat
ing and spreading a knowledge of
that disreputable monarch's dis
reputable deeds, than by just such
an order. The portions supplied
with dots will be sought after and
read with the greatest avidity and
more thoroughly commented on
and impressed upon the memory
of the student than any other por
tion .
'he government officials in New
York have selected Uedlocs' Island
as the future landing place of for
eign immigration, and old Castle
Garden will lose its imjtortance
that it has held for so many years.
Probably the change will lx of
benefit to the immigrants, as it
will Ik? more difficult for the bunko
steerers of New York city to get
hold of them.
