Imports Have Begun From England,
France and Australia.
MONEY IS NO LONGER A DRUG
.Many Thousands Added to the Lists of
Labor by Termination of the Coal
Strike—Wool’s Plieliomenal Sales.
Failures of the Week.
New York, Sept. 25.—R. G. Dun' &
Co.’s weekly review of trade says:
Gold imports have begun direct from
England and from France, besides the
arrival of $4,000,000 at/San Francisco
from Australia for wheat exported. The
gold received there and started _,from
Europe amounts to $6,500,000 in two
days, and the advance of its rates by
the Bank of England to 2% per cent
seems likely to check the movement, in
view of heavy merchandise balances
due this country and the rise in rate of
interest here. Since currency began to
go out largely to move the crops, while
rapidly SWelling business called for in-
creased supply, the New York market
has grown harder until sterling ex-
change fell 1% cents. last week and
When the rise
in rates brought two days’ reaction in
stocks, with opportunity for enormous
purchases at a decline, gold was started
from London at once by demands of
creditors here. The August excess of
merchandise and specie exports over
imports was not far from $42,000,000,
and the September excess will evidently
be larger unless shipments of gold are
considerable. Merchandise exports from
New York in three weeks of September
have been 15.3 per cent over last year’s
- and imports 13.7 per cent less, and like
> changes on the whole trade for the
~' month would result in net exports of
$53,000,000 merchandise, besides silver.
Money No Longer a Drug.
Money is no longer a drug here, be-
cause trade and industry advance with-
out halting. Payments through prin-
cipal clearing houses have been 65.7 per
cent larger‘than in last year for the‘
week and 17.3 per cent larger than in
1892. So vast an expansion, from 140,-
000,000 daily in March to 211,000,000 daily
in September, would have been thought
impossible not long ago, and railroad
earnings in September also slightly ex-
ceed those of 1892 and last year’s by
11.7 per cent.
Produce markets have been uncertain
and a. shade lower for wheat and
stronger for corn, while the decline in
cotton continues. With 8%, cents paid
for spot at the end of August, cotton
has dropped 11/; cents or 18 per cent in
less than four weeks, in spite of a re-
markable revival of manufacture. Fever
in some southern cities has not been
largely influential, and the main factor
has been a general impression that es—
timates are as misleading as they were
when the yield was the greatest on
record. The corn estimate most cred-
ited by the trade is only 1,750,000,000
bushels, but. is coupled with figures
tending to show a surplus from the
last crop of 400,000,000 bushels over ordi-
nary consumption. Were this quite be-
lieved the price would not be rising,
although exports continue heavy, in
three weeks 9,927,849 bushels against
6,150,187 last year. Wheat has declined
a fraction for the week, though Atlan-
tic exports, flour included, for three
weeks have been 12,498,181 bushels
against 6,183,743 last year. Western re—
ceipts are exceeding last year’s, and
foreign estimates now agree in making
the probable requirement from this
country over 100,000,000 bushels greater
than it was last year.
Coal, Iron and Steel.
The official ending of the western coal
strike adds many thousand men to the
working force in the mines and others
in manufactures using bituminous coal.
The anthracite strike has substantially
ended, and no extensive labor disturb-
ance is threatened. The output of coke
is now 125,000 tons, and the price is also
advanced. Some branches of the iron
and steel industry are clearly no longer
able to keep up with their new orders.
Others are very fully employed for
some months ahead, and withal the de-
mand is increasing. Heavy buying has
raised bessemer pig at Pittsburg to
$10.50 and gray forge to $9.50, with ac-
tual sales of 10,000 tons southern pig in
' the Mahoning valley for $6.75 at Bir-
mingham. Billets are quoted at $16.25,
and $23 has been refused for wire rods.
Reported sales of wool are more than
double those of the most prosperous
years, but the rise in prices renders the
future more doubtful, except for man-
ufacturers having heavy supplies laid
in. The cotton mills art doing a large
business, although . recent buying of
goods has naturally decreased after the
recent rush.
While $5,000,000 has gone to the inte-
rior during the week and commercial
loans.have been ~fewer, the-- principal.
banks averaging 50 per cent against 70
per cent two weeks ago, good collections
have prevented difficulty. Failures for
the week have been 209 in the United
States against 354 last year, and 28 in
Canada: against 39 last year. ‘
Robbed and Shot on a Train.
Syracuse, Sept. 25.—-anrtin Collins
was robbed and shot on a New York
Central train near Canastota today.
He was traveling with a man named
“Dutch” Breen, who, he says, was his
assailant. Thebullet took effect in his
right leg. After he had been shot, Col—
lins claims that Breen took $12 from
him.
Colombian Export Duty on Ooflee.
Washington, Sept. 25.—The state de-
partment has been notified through its
consuls at Carthagena and Barran-
quilla that the Colombian government
has suspended the export duty on cof-
fee, which amounted to $1.60 per 110
pounds, and ’was a. war tax.
Bicycle Company In Trouble.
Richmond, Ind., Sept. 25.—The Rich-
mond Bicycle company is to be put in
the hands of a. receiver. The liabilities
are about $37,000 and estimated assets
$89,000. Most of the creditors are fully
protected by mortgages on both real
and personal property.

ENGLAND AHD SILVER.
Another Broadside Against the Bank
of England.
TEE PROTESTS 0F SANKERS.
It Is Thought That They Will Have the
Desired Effect—Lord Farrer Ar-
gucs Against International Bi-
metallic Agitation.
London, Sept. 25.—The Times says ed-
itorially today concerning the proposed
silver reserve in the Bank of England:
“We do not suppose, in view of the
emphatic ‘remonstrance of the London
bankers and the general business com-
munity, that there will be any desire to
go further, even in a. speculative way,
with a. policy thoroughly discredited
from the beginning. We must depre-
cate in the most emphatic way any at-
tempt to bring political influences to
bear upon the administrative policy of
the bank. It is difficult to resist the
force of Lord Farrer’s argument. An
international arrangement to raise sil-
ver to the artificial value contemplated
would be a revolutionary measure, ac-
complished, probably, without the con-
sent of legislation, which would carry
with it the gravest consequences to
British finance and cpmmerce.”
Lord Farrer has a three column letter
in The Times on bimetallism and the
Indian mints. He says, “In my own
opinion the ultimate solution of the
problem will be found in the adoption
of the gold standard in India.” He pro-
ceeds to discuss the proposals of the
American commissioners and the French
government, in which connection he
says:
“There has been no official statement
of Senator Wolcott’s proposals, but we
may form a. shrewd guess from an arti-
cle which appeared in The National Re-
view for August, entitled ‘Episodes of
the Month,’ and written by some one
who appears to be in the councils of
the American negotiators.
The Invitation to India.
“From this we gather that India is
invited to open her mints at a ratio of
151/.» to 1, which in all probability is the
only ratio that would satisfy France
and the United States. This ratio would
mean that the present gold value of
silver would have to be increased by if:
per cent."
After pointing out that various term
porary panics would probably 015128
from carrying out the proposals Lord
Farrar sketches the pesition of curren-
cy in the United States and France,
from which he concludes that there is
“every reason to believe in the present
circumstances that neither the United
States nor France, nor both united,
could possibly, by ”opening the mints,
create a demand for silver such as
would raise or maintain its gold value
at the ratio of 151/2 to 1.”
_”As to India, experience has shown
emphatically that the opening of /its
mints would not create the necessary
demand. Indeed, circumstances would
be less favorable there, for the opening
of the French and American mints
would create a competition which pos-
sibly, especially if the, Indian mints
were open to gold, would not only pre-
vent silver from flowing to India, but
would also attract silver from India,
causing an export to Europe.
“There is another risk. It is highly
improbable that any diplomatic or leg-
islative arrangements could reverse the
tendency of the world for the past 200
years to make gold the standard of val-
ue. The English people adopted it in
spite of the government. It is much
more likely that the American bankers
and merchants will arrange to make
their dealings on a gold basis, and thus
evade the law which gives silver an ar-
tificial gold value. It is almost certain
that this will occur in case of' interna-
tional dealings, and it is very likely also
to occur'in all large dealings at home
and abroad.
'Efl'ect on Gold Standard Countries.
“Supposing the proposal succeeded.
Its effect would be in all- parts of. the
British empire and all gold standard
countries that the standard of value
would be altered, enabling debtors to
discharge gold debts with silver at the
ratio of 15% to 1, because any one could
take silver to the French or American
mints and get it coined into francs or
dollars, which, on the hypothesis that
the plan succeeds and a stable exchange
is secured, would be worth in the mar-
ketsof the world, including London,
one-fifteenth and a half of their weight
in gold. It would enable the United
States and the French governments.
supposing them to OWe debts abroad, to
use the enormous stocks of silver they
possess in paying those debts with less
than half the silver with which they
could now pay them.
“Such a change would be good for
neither India nor any other cauntry
whichva‘aues'ccmmon honesty. Suc a
change would be most injurious to
Great Britain and the British empire,
and yet this revolutionary change
would be effected by the aid and with
the full concurrence of our own gov-
ernment. It is'impossible to believe
that the government will take such a
step.
“Enough has been said to show that
the proposal is impracticable if desira-
ble and undesirable if practicable. For
the sake of India and the empire it
ought to be rejected summarily. But
there is another reason for rejecting it
summarily. We are deeply interested
in the welfare of the United States.
Every mistake. that country makes,
while it may benefit us as a commercial
rival, injures us far more as friendly
dealers and customers. What she
needs above all is a restoration of a
sound system of currency, and this she
will not get while the ignis fatuus of in-
ternational bimetallism distracts the
attention of her rulers. The sooner we
can help to lay that phantom the better
for both countries.”
