Havana and other clubs of the island have 
sent cablegrams to the Minister for the Col¬ 
onies asking that the export taxes on sugar, 
molasses, brandy and tobacco from Cuba be 
abolished.Philadelphia butter dealers 
have formed an organization to help enforce 
the oleo law.,,. The Pennsylvania Wool 
Growers’ Association will meet at Washing¬ 
ton, December 2S and 29.In a late Aus¬ 
tralian wool show the best fleece weighed 10

four ounces scoured, and was valued at £2 82. 
.The exports of frozen meat from New 
Zealand are stated iu the London Economist 
to be about 7Ol),lK>0 carcasses of mutton annu¬ 
ally... ....The imports of Red Polled cattle 
this year will exceed 100 head .The 
claim is made that Colorado has more fine 
Galloway cattle than any other State in the 
Union . It is estimated i hat the butchers’ 
strike in Chicago cost the country and the 
butchers over two million dollars. 
....Between 1*75 and 1884 a total of 55,000,000 
rabbit skins were exported from Tasmania, 
New Zealand, the supply of 1884 being 
9,800.000skins.The union crop, o<viug 
to a smaller acreage, the dry weather an 1 
the maggot, will show a reduced yield from 
that of last year.The combined exports 
of cheese from New York and Montreal up to 
a late date show a decrease of 289,000 boxes 
compared with 18S5....... The production of 
oleomargarine for domestic consumption is 
estimated by Commissioner Miller at the rate 
of 100,000,000 pouuds per year ... As one 
of the results of the strike at the Union Stock 
Yards, Chicago, it is stated that the lowest 
prices for cattle touched in seven years were 
reached on the 17th ult., when steers averag¬ 
ing 1,000 pounds sold as low as 82.90 per 100 
pounds, and several car loads equally good for 
83. During that week 500 head (15 car loads) 
of Texas yearlings were sold to a city butcher 
at 87 per head, which was the price offered for 
them iu Texas. The freight amounted to 
about 81,500... 
Crop & filar lifts. 
Saturday, December 4, 1886. 
The Mark Lane Express, iu its review of the 
British grain trade during the past week, 
says: The sparse offers of native wheat are 
attracting the attention of the trade, and it is 
believed that the crop has been largely ovex-- 
estimated. It is now calculated at only 0,500,- 
000 quarters—52,000,000 bushels. In the pro- 
viuciul markets the supplies are rather greater. 
Values have not risen. The sales of English 
wheat during the week were 49,908 quarters, 
at fils. 1 Id. against 08,218 quarters at fiOs. 9d. 
during tin* corresponding period last year. 
Owing to the viureruuncrutive prices of 
mid-Kent hops in England, and the depression 
in the hop industry generally, a large grower 
is grubbing up 100 acres of hops there; and 
reports from other parts of Kent ami other 
hop-bear mg Euglish comities go to indicate 
that about 10,000 acres of hops will be grubbed 
up iu England this year. Here holders of 
hops are still pretty firm: but buyers want, 
concessions. Only the very choicest hops bring 
30 cents; 25 to 28 is a full range for good to 
prime.

and yield per acre of cereal crops in the Pro¬

Wheat, 
barley, oats 
, rye and peas 
were 
reaped and boused iu lair condition, and the 
final report of yield differs but slightly from 
the August, estimate. The wheat crop is 
about 8,600,000 bushels less thuu the average 
of five years; barley is only 50,000 bushels 
less, aud oats is 3,300,000 more. Rye is dimiu- 
lshiug in breadth aud yield. 
The week up to Thursday was an active oue 
iu pork pacKJiig operations iu the West. The 
10 prominent packing points handled 505,000 
hogs during the week, against 405.000 last 
year, and since November 1 a total of 1,485,000, 
agaiust 1,775,000 last year, indicating a 
shortage of 290,000; other smaller packing 
places iu the West have packed 140,000, 
agaiust 158,000 last year. It is probable that 
the shortage for ail points is about 300,000 
hogs. The quality of hogs now marketed is 
generally excellent; in some cases reported 
not quite so heavy, but not so rough. At Cin¬ 
cinnati the average weight for November is 
one pound heavier than last year, aud two 
pounds heavier than two years ago, but six 
pounds lighter than three years ago, for the 
same month. The packing record of Chicago 
is not far from 500,000 hogs less for the cur¬ 
rent month than it would have been were it 
not for the recent senseless strike. 
Very Latest. —During this week, wheat 
options at Chicago and New York have ad¬ 
vanced 4 to 4cents, and for cash four cents 
per bushel on increasing exports and specula¬ 
tion and small stocks abroad. The renewed 
strength is quite pronouuced, and the opiukra 
gains ground that a permanent gain in wheat 
prices has fiually begum Indian corn went 
U j cent higher with small, stocks and heavier 
demand, and wheat flour with a better inquiry 
for export and reduced production has been 
marked up 15 cents per barrel. Wool is affect¬ 
ed unfavorably by the London sales, which 
are off 5 to 10 per cent from previous auction 
prices. The Louisiana sugar crop “is now es 
timated” at 150.000 hogsheads, a reduction 
from previous estimates. There is more ac¬ 
tivity iu hog products. Speculative markets 
are iu sympathy with the upward turn to 
grain prices aud there is an increasing out¬ 
side demand. Pork has advanced 82 per bar¬ 
rel and western steam lard cent per pound, 
iu the week. On the whole, the week is 
marked by a distinct increase of speculative 
activity at all centers.
