FINANCE AND COMMERCE. - FIN A NCR. Indianapolis, Aug. 31. In the local money market there are no new features. Money is strong at 8 per cent., and ■were it not for the well-known reluctance of bankers to make loans the demand would be very aotlve. Counter business was a little better than in the early part of the week. We quote exchange at 25c discount for Western, 50c to $1 for Eastern. The New York Money Market—Stock Transactions—Closing Prices of Government Securities—Quotations of General Stocks New York, Aug. 31.—Mouey easy at 2*2% per cent.; closed offered at 2 per cent. Prime mercantile paper, 5%®0 per cent. Dry goods imports for the week, $2,628,000. Government bonds steady. Railroad bonds firm. Btate securities dull. The stock market continued feverish this forenoon, and there were some pretty wide fluctuations in Louisville and Nashville, and Northern Pacific, but, on the whole, the advance established yesterday of 1H to 2 per cent, on the general list was more than maintained, and atone time, about 10:30, prices were even % to 1 per cent, above the closing figures last night, though this advance was about lost by 12 o’clock, and partly regained again by 12:30, leaving the market at that time above last evening's figures. .From 12:30 to 2 the market was generally steady to firm, the majority of stocks being a iffaction higher. Lake Shore wa9 an exception, and declined 1% in an hour and a half. In the last half hour the market was strong throughout, and many stocks made the highest prices • f the day, the advance in the last hoar being from % to 1% per cent., the latter Oregon A Transcontinental, to 62%, with Northern Pacific preferred 1%, to 72%, common %, to 38% Lake fill ore 1 per cent., to 100%; Louisville A Nashville %. to 44% Lackawanna % to 121% Gann da Southern %, to 52*4, and other stocks 14 to % American Cable advanced from 61 %to 63, and Richmond A West Point from 31 to 32*4. The general advance for the day over last evening’s figures was *9 to 2 per cent., the latter Oregon A Transcontinental, with Northern Pacific preferred 13s, common 1% Canada Southern 1, Delaware, Lackawanna A Western 1, and other stocks a fraction. The Evening Post says : The experience of today in the stock market, like that of yesterday, shows a higher range of prices. As far as can lie Judged by surface indications on the Btock Exchange, tills is not the covering of shorts, nut is the effect of some other buying element. Notwithstanding the selling of a large amount of long stock of Lake Shore and Delaware, Lackawanna A Western, which, it is now claimed, was done for the purpose of breaking the market, though it makes no difference whether that was the case or not, both t* ese stocks have reached to higher prices, and, like Northern Pacific, there seems to be •omebody willing to take them as fast as they are sold. These facts indicate a change in the general conditions, which influence the market, as compared with a week or two ago. The transactions at the Stock Exchange today aggregated 366,000 shares, as follows: Delaware, Lackawanna A Western 84,000, Denver Sz Rio Gran6> 5,000, Erie 5,000, Lake Shore 32,000.

place an order for immediate delivery. The coffee market presents nothing new. There is a very fair demand for roasted at. prices quoted, and it isolaimed that it is lower relatively than the green beau. Molasses and syrups dull, and, as will be seen, we have reduced our quotations on the latter. The mackerel catch has not been a total failure, but tne next thing to it. Up to The beginning of August nnlv 53,000 barrels had been taken, which is 153,000 barrels Ipsr than to same date last year. Prices are much higher than they wore a year ago, hut It is not thought that there will he any further advance, as the high cost is lessening the consumption. In the produce markets there is little new to note. Eggs are arriving more freely and prices are steady, but not strong. Rutter market continues quiet and unchanged and the same is true of cheese. Both of these articles are reported dull for the season. All kinds of fruits and vegetables in liberal supply with prices favoring the buyer. A serious danger is said to threaten the potato crop of western New York, Ihe foliage is being attacked by what is known as black rust. It spreads rapidly, and two or three days are sufficient to ruin the entire growth. It lias done its work or. the fields of the bottom lands, and is now found spotting the vines in many hillside lots. As soou as the vines dry up thus prematurely the potato itself is affected and rots, and as the Western markets may yet be called upon to supply a deficit East, prices are firiurr, but not quotably higher. . GRAIN. The local wheat market is still in an unsatisfactory position, and dealers are reluctant to take hold. The Board of Trade Price Current says of wheat: “We quote local markets dull, weak and lower: inquiries principally confined to cash No. 2 red.

PLAIN TRUTHS The blood is the foundation of life, it circulates through every part of the body, and unless it is pure and rich, good health is impossible. If disease has entered the system the only sure and quick way to drive it out is to purify and enrich the blood. These simple facts are well known, and the highest medical authorities agree that nothing but iron will restore the blood to iu natural condition; and also that all the iron preparations hitherto made blacken the teeth, cause headache, and are otherwise injurious. Brown’s Iron Bitters will thoroughly and quickly assimilate with the blood, purifying and strengthening it, and thus drive disease from any part of the system, and it will not blacken the teeth, cause headache or constipation, and is positively not injurious. Saved his Child. *7 N. Enfaw St., Baltimore, M 4. Feb. ta, i&8o. Gents Upon the recommendation of a friend I tried Brown's Iron EiTfnßs as a tonic and restorative for my daughter, whom I was thoroughly convinced was wasting away with Consumption. Waving lost three daughters by the terrible disease, under the care of eminent physicians, I was loth to Lelieve tnat anything could arrest the progress of the disease, but, to my great surprise, before my daughter had taken one bottle of Brown's Iron Bitters, she began to mend and now is quite restored to former health. A fifth daughter began to show signs of Consumption, and when the physician was consulted lie quickly said “Tonics were required;” and when informed that the elder sister was taking Bkown’< Iron Bn thus, responded “that i a good tonic, take it.” Ado ram Phelps.
