of between 200 and 300 pounds per acre over 
last year. Hail did some damage, but only 
the late storms leave their marks. The early 
crops outgrow the damage, and in some cases 
tobacco experts cut down the original crop 
and cultivated the second growth to full ma¬ 
turity. The damage from this source will be 
abOttt one-half per cent of the whole crop. 
Rust is confined to the Havana, but there is 
little complaiut. The crop will be clean aud 
of good quality, unless improper care is taken 
with the crop ; n the sheds. In the majority 
of districts Havana gains in favor, as farm¬ 
ers better understand how to grow and han¬ 
dle it. 
A letter from Wilmington, Del., dated 
Tuesday last, says: “The peach season reaches 
its liight during this week, aud the shipments 
from now until the 1st of September will lie 
the heaviest of the year. The Stumps, Moores, 
Oldmixons, aud Reeves’s Favorite are com¬ 
ing now, and with the end of these varieties 
the flush of the season passes away. The 
prices have been higher this season than last, 
but the quality of the fruit has been inferior. 
The yield lias been about a fourth less, and it 
is not probable that the coming shipments will 
make any break in the prices.” 
The treatoning aspect of Eastern Europe on 
Monday advanced grain prices in this country; 
but soon a reaction set in. Free selling by 
“bulls,” and the impending deliveriesof Spring 
wheat, which are expected to prove heavy, 
prevented an advance, especially after an 
increase of 1,800,000 bushels In the visible 
supply was announced on Tuesday. On Fri¬ 
day wheat declined here le. to IJjjC. for spot 
and options on free options. Reports of dam¬ 
age to com by drought are pretty serious in 
nearly all cases; but as to the real amount of 
injury reports are very conflicting, 
Butter has been steady during the week 
with an improved demand lor factory grades, 
but otherwise the market has not been interest¬ 
ing. Advices from the producing centers are 
an important element of strength. Exporters 
arc not operating freely. 
The cheese market has been fairly active 
during the week, but no improvement has 
been made in prices, excepting in colored 
fancy, which is scarce. Exporters are limit¬ 
ed to price in their operations, and the failure 
of Liverpool to respond to the last upward 
move here has a depressing effect. 
On account of factorymeu refusing to offer 
any August cheese, aud July I icing nearly 
elosed out, at lugvrsoll, the great cheese 
market of Ontario, Can., five factories offered 
1,230 boxes, 1,030 July 200 August. No sales 
reported. Twenty factories represented and 
ten buyers present. 
No change in wool during the week. Hold¬ 
ers, looking at supply and demand the world 
over, say present prices will be maintained or 
advanced. 
The September series of sales of colonial 
wool in London will open tou days hence. All 
the indications point to firm if not higher 
prices. The current quotations for leading 
sorts at Boston uro the same as Inst week, as 
follows:

According to the latest reports, an unusually 
large amount of the Western ranges is in 
poor condition to support grazing stock next 
Winter. There ore every Summer considera¬ 
ble areas in this state, but this year the injury 
is reported to be much more extended than 
usual, and even with it l'avorablesseason hence¬ 
forth there is little prospect of recovery. The 
poor condition of pastures in rnuuy sections of 
the country at present, and the unfavorable 
outlook on the ranges, have caused a heavy 
run oil the market, and tended to depress 
prices. The weakness of fat cattle has had a 
depressing effect on the prices of store cattle, 
aud, moreover, the prevalent conditions afford 
a rather discouraging outlook for feeding 
stock. At present nearly 80,000 head of cattle 
have been thrown upon the Chicugo market 
from Dakota alone inside of two months, aud 
the four or five buyers in Chicago, who con¬ 
trol the market there, take advantage of this 
fact to put the price of beef down to a point 
where there is no profit for the producers. 
The Montana ranges are overstocked, ami 
there’s no room lor pilgrim cattle. The Fall 
round-up has begun, and the cowboys arc 
ordered to cut out every animal that will 
make beef or that is old enough for market. 
Even with this diminution it is u puzzling 
problem how to winter wlmt is left, and 
growers are seeking locations elsewhere for a 
u part of the stock for W in tor. From the 
great number of pour sheep lately sent to 
market, it appears likely that sheep owners 
are rigorously culling their flocks. This is u 
good plan for profit in the future, but it de¬ 
presses the price ol' ordinary sheep every where. 
G-ood mutton sheep fetch high prices, but the 
complaint is pretty general that most of the 
offerings are miserable stuff. 
The Marquis de Mores and ‘ ‘de” Dakota, the 
chief party interested in the new dressed-meat 
enterprise here, is jubilant at its success. 
Said he, yesterday: “We now have three stores 
in Now York, and notwithstanding the boy¬ 
cotting are disposing of 100 cattle a day. By 
October we shall have six more shops opened, 
and hope to bring our sales up to 250 cattle 
a- flay before January. The cattlemen in the 
West look upou the venture with considera¬ 
ble favor, and are taking steps to follow my 
example and supply Boston, Philadelphia, 
Baltimore, Washington aud other large cities 
with meat direct from the ranch. I am now 
making arrangements to slaughter and ship 
cattle for my neighbors on commission; and, 
furthermore, am puttiug up a slaughter-house 
in Kansas City, where corn-fed beeves, hogs 
aud sheep will be dressed during the winter 
months, thus securing a continuous supply for 
this market.” 
The receipts of hogs at Western packing 
centers have tended to depress prices of pro¬ 
ducts. This effect was produced from this, 
aided by other causes, and about the middle of 
the week, owing to free selling, even specula¬ 
tive lard went off and looked despondent. 
The decline in grain assisted the weakness. 
TELEGRAPHIC BRIEFS THIS A. M. 
Duluth, Minn. : Reports from the wheat 
fields say that the yield is far beyond anti¬ 
cipations, aud it now looks as if there will be 
about as much wheat for the Duluth marker, 
as last year. 
Omaha. Neb. During the last three weeks 
the weather has been very favorable, and 
crop prospects continue encouraging. The 
weather is hot aud dry at. present, but the 
corn is not suffering from want of rain, aud the 
wheat has nearly all beeu harvested. 
St. Joseph, Mo. : The corn crop in North 
western Missouri has been damaged by 
drought fully 50 per cent. In Northwestern 
Kansas they hail earlier and more rain, and 
the crop is estimated at. 60 to 75 per cent. 
Louisville, Ky. : The corn crop promises 
a full yield hereabouts. Wheat is coming in 
liberally and quality improving. Oats, free 
receipts, holders meeting the market readily.
