the money
enotogfa treasury funds to
a healthy condition without
or
loffto tbe int.,._„_
oialpolioy of the present administra-
tion it was the custom of the treasury
department to reach the business af
lative markets, but now no material
is furnished directly for value infla
Úon purposes, and only what legiti
mate enterprises fail to Absorb goes
in that direction. In short, the af
fairftofthe treasury are conducted
more nearly in harmony with the fi
oancial, commercial and industrial in-
terests of the whole people than tbey
have been at any time since oironm-
stances made large accumulations of
money in the bond of tie govern-
ment possible, and the wisdom of the
existing policy js reflected^
¿fi^d^ft 4.fie86órvative expansion of
every line of trade and commerce and
in thft corresponding weakening of
tbe purely speculative situation.
A steady and strong current of
trade has been maintained at sll the
commercial centres the past week,
but at St. Louis, Cincinnati and
Baltimore transactions, as measured
>y cleuring house returbs, show a
slight contraction when oompared
with tbe Corresponding period of last
year. The country as a whole, how
exclusive of New York Oity,
increased its volume of money trans
actions 10.6 per cent, over 1886, tbe
total operations aggregating $276,
105,27 , and $795,218,090 including
New York, the latter oity running
>ebind .5 per cent. -These figures,
more especially those for the country
outside of New York, represeut trans-
sotions that bfcve boon freer from
speculative tendente and influences
than ever before in a like period. In
fact legitimate financial and commer
cial interests are too much absorbed
in fostering productive industry and
n expanding trade distribution to
>cither with sp- or lative ventures; be
sides, speculation has nothing to
offer just now that is not extra
lazardous. Tbe products of the soil,
the dairy, the rauoh and tbe factory
are engaging the attention of business
men in a very rauoh greater degree
than ever before, and are giving em
ployment to much of the money that
used to seek other tban the regular
channels of financial and commercial
movements, and as a consequence the
enrrent record of business embarrass
mente is below tLe average, except
through fire loses, which are, by tbe
way, becoming alarmingly, if not sus
p'oiously, large. But on the whole
the business situation and tbe condi
lion of nearly all lines of trade are
ft'ongei^nd^e^fa^^hfl^ -
Oeeu at any time in the past thirty
years, and although some hesitation
is notioed in a few lines tbe to it is
observable everywhere that the posi
tion of industry, commerce and
finance is steadily growing stronger,
wb:lo all the commodity markets are
remarkably free from disturbing fac
tots.
The trade situation in the South
weet has developed no prominent
features the past week, nor have any
unfavorable influences been discovered
in the general markets. The accumu
lation and distribution of farm and
factory produots and of the various
trade commodities at St. Louis has
been on a more extended b jale than
in the corroBponding week of last
yeaf, or in the preceding woek, al
though the exchanges of the clearing
house show a slight decreaBo in cosh
transactions as represented by bank
checks; but when it is remembered
that bills receivable for tho midsum-
mer and early fall merchaudise pur
chases aro not yet due. and are not
yet refl cted iu the charging house
exhibit, the reason why there could
be largo increase in the volume of
goods distribution without increasing
bank exchanges will, be apparent,
Jobbers, of dry goods, groceries, boots
and shoes, huts and caps, and other
liúos of merchandise have had a satis
factory week. The domand from
buyers in person and by orders has
been unusually large aud the outlook
is decidedly promising for still fur-
ther expansion. A very large trade
ia; expeoted during the fall festivities
friom buyers who are stccking up by
orders, expecting to come later in
pftrson to make their late fall an<
