' , There was an Increased volume of . busi ness on the Stock Exchange yesterday, and the speculation was generally firmer In town, the result of the trading being an advance ranging up to 2!i per cent., in which the great majority, of the list participated. Covering of short contracts was the main strength of the market, but there was also good buying on- the part of operators who had taken proats' during the past few days, and who deemed it an opportune time to speculate for another upward inoverment. The sorts in the grangers were most active in closing out their contracts. Rock 3sland being a heavy favorite In the later dealings. In the coal shares, Reading and Mew Jersev fpntrjtl nlnn of th frnnn wpr traded in and receded i and i per cent., respectively, on rumors of a probable general strike of the miners. The foreign houses were small sellers of the arbitrage stocks, but this business was not sufficiently large to . affect the market. At the opening of business prices .-were -generally a fraction lower, and a pressure to sell Sugar was quickly developed which 'sent that stock down I1. A slightly lower level was also established for the rest of the list, and peculation for a brief period was irregular. The trading, however, soon steadied Itself. md prices were well held on a small market until about 1 o'clock, when active buying set in, under which the figures continued to advance-up to 'the. final . dealings. During the last hour Missouri Pacific was very prominent in the purchasing, large blocks cf the stock being absorbed at advancing quotations, the buying being credited to Inside interests. Chicago-Gas' was also in frood buying for the account of a newly formed bull rool. Lake Shore, on small sales, gave way 14, -per cent, with a final recovery of 1'.;. Bay State Gas broke 1 per cent, to 20 on ?&le. of a flve-hundred-share block, and New York, Chicago & St. Louis econds preferred lost Hiper.centj on sales or 3i)u sares.

As usual on the lat day of the month, trade was dull yesterday In most departments. The month his exceeded the expectations of those wholesale men and commission men who are not ca3tle-ln-the-afr builders. In mast lines It will considerably exceed that- of. last year. Through the month steady prices rulel In most lines. Some advances were madr in dry goods and In drugs. At no time in the history of Meridian street have ttaple groceries been a3 steady and firm. The leather market was active and prices firm. Provisions moved well for July, and prices varied tout little between the first and the last day of the month. Wool and hide markets are both In stronger position than thirty days ago. Poultry, eggs and butter market- fluctuated but little; receipts were not large, nor was the demand more than ordinarily active. On Commission row It was a good month. Never have commission men done as much in midsummer as in last month. Everything was in their favor. The cities and towns of the State, depended largely on this market for their fruits and vexetablea, and this market was kept unusually well supplied. Taken as a . whole it was a good business month all round for midsummer season. Tne local grain market W3s fairly active, but during the month had its ups and downs. One 1 of the drawbacks was light receipts. AH cereals have been in good request. Track bids yesterday ruled as follows, which on corn and oats vary but little from, these of July last Wheat No.' 2 red, 67c; No. 3 red, 61c; wagon wheat, 67c.

WHEAT 1 1-2C LOWER
LACK OF EXPORT DEMAND CAUSED WEAKNESS IN CEREALS. Doth Corn and Oats Market Declined vrlth Wheat, nnd provision Fell Oh! on Cheap Hog. CHICAGO. July 31. Principally because of tho lack of export demand, wheat was decidedly weak to-day, closing at lc decline for September. September corn lost c; May closed Vic lower, and provisions finished at declines. In an hour, from the opening September wheat, which closed yesterday worth 71c, had declined to C3c, being a drop of lc per bushel In that short time.. The foreign markets, with the exception of Berlin, were fairly steady at the opening, and the domestic situation was no less bullish than before as regards the small deliveries of winter wheat from farmers and the poor quality of the little they were selling. Trading was similar in Its local character to that of the previous days. The bulls who sold out on the last bulge took some wheat on the early decline, and sold It out again when they found their action was not well seconded. From 63c September recovered to 7Cc, and after fluctuating for over an hour between that and C3c, it took another dip to 63c, when Bradstreet's statement of the visible supply was given at a decrease for the world of 2,425,000 bu. A year ago the stocks In similar positions increased 3,000,000 bu. The lollowing exhibit of the wheat uiuvement lor twtnty-iour hours suggests no explanation of the weaxness or tne market except as to such part ot It as relates to the exports. ThebC were again small, and that feature havlng-existed' tor some time, Is wearing itself into recognition, and was probably at the bottom of tne wnoie trouble. Chicago receipts were V5 cars, 73 of whicn were new rea, and of these only two .were up to the standard of the contract grade. A year ago Chicago received 6yu cauoads, of wnich oSS were contract. The total receipts at Western primary markets amounted to 41,000 bu, against 1,225,C00 bu on the corresponding day of last year. Minneapolis and Duluth received 19 carloads, compared with 214 In the previous year. Atlantic port exports comprised 60,961 bu of wheat and 7.9uS brls of Hour. Tne market ruled very weak and without support from the heavier class of the bull operators, the price In the afternoon went a shade lower than the lowest point reached In the earlybreak. - - The corn marketi was 1 dull in Its speculative feature, and futures were a shade lower. The promise for the next corn crop was in no degree Impaired. The comparative steadiness of the market arose from the good demand for cash corn. Carloads brought He over September for No. 2 to go to store and c premium was paid for round lots for shipment. Receipts to-day were 871 cars. September opened at from 4ic to 4276c, sellers, and sold at 4Zc in the first minute of tho session. It was kept between 4214c and 43c sellers, during a greater part of the day, touching 42c for a moment under the influence of a weak epell In wheat. It was fairly firm near the end at 42042c, and closed at that. May sold at from 35c to 33,2035c; and closed at 33535Vfcc Oats opened fairly active at a slight decline in prices. .There was no independence to the market, and fluctuations were ruled entirely by wheat and corn. The range was narrow. July cold from 22c to 22c, and closed c lower at the latter price. May ranged from 254025c to 25c, and closed at the letter price. The bulls In provisions appeared to have thrown tp the sponge. 'The hog receipts are as light as expected, but the price is not governed at present by the comparatively light supply if the raw material, but by the light demand for the manufactured article, of wtych the stocks are ample. The receipts of hogs to-day were 11,000. Business was not brisk.'4 but enough ,was offered on a market devoid of buying spirit to knock 40c per brl off the price of pork, 10c per 100 lbs cfr lard and 20c off ribs.

The American Wool and Cotton Repqter will say to-morrow of the wool, trade: During the past week the wool markets of New York, Boston, Philadelphia and elsewhere have witnessed a period of inactivity beyond that noted for some time. Although there have .been numerous buyers In the market the aggregate and Individual transactions have been of limited proportions. The reasons -may be attributed to the fact that many manufacturers are now sufficiently well supplied to enable them to operate their machinery for some little time. Values remain firm, and those who were in need of more stock readily acquired it at the prices that ruled a week earlier. There are some, no doubt who are holding off with the expectation that prices cannot remain permanent and stock can eventually be procured at lower figures. The amount of wool which has already been taken by consumers Is far In excess of what was soli up to this time last year, even allowing for a large percentage of speculative buying in Eastern markets.

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: In Saturday's Journal, referring to the subject of "Sequestration of Gold," by government, banks and individuals, you say,; "No doubt the practice does prevail in all countries, and It might be Interesting to inquire why governments, banks and individuals always sequester gold Instead of silver." This question can be answered in various ways.. If I were hoarding or sequestering either of the named metals, it would not take me long to decide which to choose. Suppose, Mri Editor, that you put away one hundred silver dollars, and I $100 In five twenty-dollar gold piece.?. Now. suppose again that your silver and my gold should fall Into the hands of some mischievous or malicious fellow, who, in order to have a little fun or secure a little revenge, would melt your silver and my gold, each representing in value the sum of $100 lawful money. Into separate lumps of metal, the one silver and the other gold, and in this form return to you the lump of silver and to me the lump of gold. Now, suppose further that we offer cur lumps of silver and gold for. sale how much in lawful money will you get for your silver and how much will I get. for my gold? I can take my lump of gold into nearly every country in the world and get for It about $33. I cannot only get that much for it to-day. but on every day of the year. Why? Because gold has a. standard. value the world over, and will always bring the highest measure of value. Hence, my five twenty-dollar gold pieces, worth by law $100. after being melted will bring me about $33. This is the reason why I should choose gold for sequestration. Now, how about your lump of silver, which before melting represented In lawful money the same amount as my gold? Will you get $95? No. You may get $50 to-day, $G3 next month, and another sum some other months.' The truth Is, silver billion is so fluctuating in the markets that you can count Its value for one day only, because the next day its value may go up or go down. Not so with gold. I venture the assertion that when it comes to the sequestration of gold or silver there is not a sllverlte in America, no matter how crazy he may be, who would not have sufficient sanity to choose gold every time. Why? Because he knows that the mere stamping a coin "one dollar" does not make that coin worth one hundred cents on the dollar unless the metal contained In that coin has the Intrinsic value of one hundred cents, by the highest measure of money value, which Is gold the world over. The free coinage of silver means flat money, the same as paper money, except that the silver dollar has mere intrinsic value in it than the paper dollar. The. principle is the same. Such significant facts, it seems, should be sufficient evidence to the average mind that as long as there exists such great difference of bullion value Between gold and silver, the IrrroiHIltv of maintaining parity between gold and silver will be apparent. Muncle, Ind., July 30. INQUIRER. One Flan; nnd One LanRaoge. Philadelphia North American. When the law decrees one flag it should also decree one common language, and afford all comers the means of acquiring that language. There is no objection to the possession of more than on or even a dozen languages. But all should learn to speak English, old and young, and the children of adopted citizens should be sent to English schools. With the American flag fiylng over our schoolhouses, the children will soon enough learn what it means, and it will be sudicient for them, and they are to be Americans. What our adopted citizens have in good part to learn Is that this is a nation and has but one rule for its citizens. They must be Americans, one of and one with us, preserving their native countries as precious recollections, but always as cltlzeas of the United States.
