MONEY, STOCKS AND BONDS. A Dull Market, with Lower Figures EstablUhed Throughout the Entire Ust. 1SEW YORK, July 20. Money Tvas quiet, with no loans, closing at 22 per cent. . Prime mercantile paper AW 5 percent. Sterling exchange dull at 4.66 for sixtyday bills, and $4.b734 for demand. The total sales of stocks to-day were 71,-1-TJ shares, including tho following: Atchison, 0,200; Missouri Pacific, 7,020; Reading. lO.fcOO; St. Paul, 5,550. The stock market was very dull, to-day, and again weak. Still lower figures wero established all over tho list. The London prices were stronger this morning, but the announcement that the Missouri Railroad Commissioners had ordered all roads in that State to reduce rates on grain, live stock, coal and other articles to take etiecj at once, Drought in considerable selling ou short contracts, and prices opened off from 8 to 88 per cent., and further declined throughout the session with only a slight reaction when the first pressure was removed. Tho trcders sold liberally during the pressure Missouri tirst half hour, and the was specially severe against Pacific, Union Pacific, Atchithe grangers. Intense dull son ana ness followed the removal of the pressure. and slight recoveries were made, but the default to be made on tho Hocking Valley interest, due Sept. 1, was another depress ing inlluence, and the decline was resumed while the market presented absolutely no feature of interest. The close was dull and weak at the lowest prices reached. Everything; is lower, but tho declines are for fractional amounts only, except in Hocking Valley, which is down at 12, and a loss of 134 in Missouri Pacific. Railroad bonds were, like stocks, dull and weak throughont, presenting no feature beyond the Hocking valley issues. The final changes are almost all in the direction of low"er prices. Hocking valley sixes lost 2, at ftG, the lives, 2, at C2. Government bonds were dull and without change. State bonds were entirely neglected.

The Ups and Downs of the Market with the Ilanire In Prices of Leading Articles. CHICAGO, July 20.-Extreme dullness pervaded the wheat market, to-day. from the opening to tho close. The opening prices were at, or near, the best quotations of the day. Withont any reactionsto speak of, the market, after starting ho higher for July and better for the more deferred deliveries, declined a full cent for all futures, or to Tfec for December, dragged for a time, recovered slightly, and closed lo lower for July and liSyc lower for dc-i tierxed fatuxes, than yesterday. Karly

strength was possiblv dueto reported cloudy and rainy weather in tho winterwheat districts, but later advices noted clearing weather. Estimates on the visible supply varied from 200,0:) bushels to 500.000 bu decrease. There was a good inquiry for shipments, and some export orders yrero filled both for winter and spring wheat. More could have been done, but for a scarcity of ocean freight room. Uut littlo interest centered in corn, and fluctuations were narrow. There were no new features to the market, which was governed exclusively by local intluences, the chief of which was the active cash demand, which narrowed tho diflerenco between July and September to c. The market opened at yesterday's closing price, was tinn, changed but little the pit being lifeless, at times, and tiual quotations were a shade higher than yesterday. Oats wero slow and rather easier, but price changes were of no consequence. The market for mess pork attracted considerable attention during the early part of the day. The feeling was stronger anft prices advanced 202?25c. Later the market ruled quiet, and prices settled back 712 10c and closed steady. Lard opened easy, but later in the day ruled steadier aud prices wero advanced .OS'S.Ooc. Toward the close the feeling was quiet and easy and the market closed at abont medium figures. Trading was moderately active in the market for short ribs. Prices wero advanced .lO.Pic. Later the market ruled quiet and easy, and prices declined .05 .07L2C, and closed steady. The leading

At the opening of trade there wan a little inquiry for wheat at about last night's closing prices, but the amount offered was euftieient (that is lor December deJlvery), and prices weakened. In July there was .scarcely any wheat for sale, and the price wtt firmly maintained at 00c, with but few trade. The crowd was a little bullih on reports of too much rain in many sections of the winter-wheat country where the grain is not yet stacked. The bull" crowd did not care to load up with December wheat, however, and that option was derresed. Closing quotations: No. 1 hard, July, $1.01; on track, $1.0301.01; No. 1 Northern

Tbe past week has not been marked by any special activity in any branch of trade, yet the volume of business has been satisfactory, and compares favorably with that of one year ago. Dry goods nieii report tho business done so far this month as much better than at auy time during the preceding month, and in excess of that of the h'rst three weeks of Julv, 1888L Considerable orders for future delivery are being booked, and tbe current business is much aboe the average. In groceries there is . not a heavy business, though there is no complaint of dullness. Prices are linn in all staples except eugars iu which there is a drop of lc on all

grades of refined. Just why the refiners have put the price down is not apparent, and tuere is ground to doubt the permanency of the reduction. Whether it will be met here is not fully determined. The drug trade daring the week has pursued the even tenor of its w ay. A fair volume of business is being dono, and quotations are unchanged. t lu produce there is absolutely no change, either in prices or conditions ox the trade. Fruits nnd vegetables are in abundant supply and chean affording but little profit to the commission houses. The hide market maintains tho absolute dnllncss which has prevailed for the past six months, and gives no sign of improving in the near future. . The New York Commercial Bulletin says of the coffee market: "The condition of business naturally brings with it a certain degree of tameness, and there has not been a doubt for a long while that any direct attempt to realize would compel a shading in the line of cost. Fortunately, however, the supplies are all so situated that owners are free from the necessity of resorting to extreme measures, and themannerof carrying gives affairs a backing of considerable steadiness, with about former rates quoted. Contracts are scarcely more than sudicient to make a market, and so dead is the speculative feeling that neither the bulls nor bears have any special feature to suggest. The deal, therefore, runs extremely light and amounts to only a sort of room scalp, with the fluctuation in value not particularly significant." The Shipping fyst says purchasers are holding off, the recent advance iu8piringthe fear that tho price may be carried beyond a figure at which tho consumptive demand will absorb the evidently heavy stock available. The stock of Rio and Santos coffees in stock and alioat to May 11 was given at 600,444 bags, against 270,714 bags at the same time last vear. Of tho above all but 61,000 bags was Kio. . GRAIN. The receipts of grain are light, owing to the wet weather, and shippers are cautioned to buy damp wheat at low figures, as it will be discounted" everywhere. Corn is in .good demand, both for shipping and manufacturing. Oats are weak for mixed grades, while" white meets with ready sales. The Indianapolis Market Report quotes grain as follows: . .

New England Parmer, As a result of experiments at the New York experiment station, it appears that prickly cuinbrey is of no value for hay or ensilage but is a valuable addition to the list of soiling crops. The cows ate it heartily whenever ottered to them. Alfalfa has thrived well, since the original seeding in 1S82. on Btitl Clay, and it appears to be perfectly hardy when well established, but it is a little difficult to get a perfect stand and makes slow growth the first, year. Successful experiments have also neen made with outdoor silos. The one built in September, 1888, had a plank foundation from which four by four joists fourteen feet long wero raised at the corners for guides in building the stack. Green corn-stalks were drawn fresh from the field and carefully piled on the stack nine feet deep, then three feet of norghum were added,' and then 9,000 pounds of corn, which bore well-developed ears, were thrown over the top. Timbers were laid across the top and 1ressnre applied by means of chains and ever. The roof was then attached to the timbers by which the pressure was applied. The stack was opened in January, no part of it was untit to eat, and a very large portion was of the best quality of prime ensilage ' . The Concentration of the Mugwumps. Albany Journal. .Blaine's "illness' and Wanamaker'a "piety' have been abandoned; and the mugwumps hare concentrated their energies m a mad drive at Corporal Tanner's "generosity.''
