New York, July 4.—Special telegram to Bradstreet’s this week, while reporting general trade as seasonably quiet and with out special feature, concur in mentioning a very hopeful feeling among merchant , as to the outlook for the autumn. Mono, is less active at Kansas City, in fair request at Milwaukee, and more active at Chicago and St. Joseph, Mo. Mercantile collec tions are materially Improved at St. Louis, Kansas City, Milwaukee, and Cleveland. in the New York stock market, beside.-, a disposition on the part ot the bull clique- to suspend operations over July 4, there is a more pronounced bearish tendency, growing out of the freight-rate war in which the granger roads are engaged, the large exports ot gold and the sudden ad vance in rates for money. The transac lions of the week ending Friday were 1,. 153,009 shareslagainst 1,819,000 last week. Bonds of all classes are dull. Investments and governments firm. Money on cull was quoted on Wednesday and Thursday ns heigh as 8 per cent., but the generality of loans averaged 1 per cent. On Friday rates had declined 2Jf«3 percent. Ex change was firm and $3,600,000 was engag ed for shipment. Commercial paper is dull. The interest in wool has receded from the central western states to Montana, Wyoming and Utah, where prices are held above a parity with these rulings at east ern markets. The clip east ot the Missis sippi has been cleared up, bought more largely b.y speculators than by manufac turers, prices having risen from one to three cents per pound within ten days. The tone of the dry goods market is en couraging. all advances in cotton goods having been well maintained and stocks being light. The pigiron market is un changed as to price. Mill irons are dull. Steel rails are strong at the low prices quoted, and the mills are full of orders. The low price of English rails exercises a depressing influence. Wheat prospects, aside from Wisconsin and Minnesota, are for a fair harvest. Esti mates vary from 435,000,000 to 465,000,000 bushels. The foreign wheat prospects are less favorable, particularly in India. Brad- street’s reports of stocks of wheat east of the Rocky mountains, July 1, aggregate 35,000,000 bushels, against 63,000,000 three months ago, and on the Pacific coast 6,000,- 000 bushels, against 10,000,000 April 1. Petroleum tends lower, but is very varia ble under conflicting new well news. Lard lias been materially advanced by specula tors. Bradstreet’s July cotton report shows that heavy rains have injured the growing crop, so that the condition may be classed fair only, against good one year ago. Spot cotton has been more active and 3-l6o higher in consequence. The total number of failures in the United States reported to Bradstreet’s for for six months of 1886 is 5461, against 6106 in 1885, 5444 in 1884, and 5294 in 1883. The total liabilities arc $53,241,000, against $68,- 580,000 in six months of 1885, $124,104,000 in 1S84, and $73,594,000 in 1883. The assets ag gregated $25,509,000, against $32,956,000 in six months of 18S5, $70,730,000 in 1884, and $39,887,000 in 1883. The percentage of as set* to liabilities this year and last is 48, against 56 in six months of 1884, and 54 in 1SS3. The monthly statistics of sugar stocks show a reduction, the visible supply stand ing at 1,305,175 tons, against 1,420,247 tons last week, but they are still heavy compared with a year ago, when they were 1,228,598 tons. This, with a fair crop outlook, /'hecks any advance. CLAIMING LARGE WEALTH. A St. I.oiiIn Street Peddler Made llapio liy Her Ndii’ii lliseorerjr—A Printer - * Wife an ItelresK to Millions. St. Louis, July 4.—One of the most fa- niilliar features of street life in St. Louis is Mary Joyce, ail aged and feeble dame who lias for nearly two decades peddled shoe strings, pins, pencils, and other small wares. For many years she had sat on the curb on Sixth street, near Barr’s dry goods palace, with her basket by her. This morning she was actually cheerful, and .smiled on passers-by as though lite really bad some happiness for her. A lady who has patronized the old woman at different times—the wife of one of St. Louis’ promi nent merchants—emerged from Barr’s store just as your correspondent was pass ing. Noticing “Old Mary’s changed look, so out of keeping with her palsied hands and trembling and bent frame, the lady said: “Why, Mary, you look happy.’’ “Yes, ma’am, aud it’s good cause I have to look happy.’’ And then with an eagerness that showed how reall v happy she was, and how desir ous of letting everybody know it, she pulled from her bosom a crumpled piece of paper, and extending it toward the litr tie group that had collected about her said: “Well, you just look at that? ” “Why, what is it, Alary?” the lady of .wealth asked. “Just see,” said Mary. The news gatherer, seeing the reluctance ,of her ladyship to touch the document, took it and read aloud to the crowd that had probably increased to two hundred persons. It was a letter dated New Or leans, La., and addressed to the chief of police of St. Louis. It was a short letter, containing altogether not over twenty-five words. It was from Mr. Williom Joyce, No. 362 Canal street, New Orleans, and re quested the chief of police to find out il his mother was in St. Louis, with some data clearly establishing the fact that Alary Joyce, the peddler, is the mother of William'Joyce, grocer, Canal street, New Orleans. Mary, in a trembling voice, but with smiling face, told the rest of the story: “1 was just coming out of my ro >m this morning, ’ said she, with my basket when a policeman met me, and said: ‘Marv, did you over have a son ?’ ‘Yes, sir,’ said I. ‘lie left home twenty years ago and never sent me a word since. I guess he’s dead.’ Then the policeman showed me this letter,and 1 knew I had found my lad. 1 k-’s a good boy, and they say he's got a grocery store ill New Orleans. The police .sent liim my name und number, and I guess he’ll come and get me.” There were many moist eyes in the crowd that dispersed, as many stopped talking *o sell “a bill of goods.” \n Heiress to Millions. St. Louis, Mo., July 1. -Mrs. L. C. Hitch" cock, in moderate circumstances, llie wife of a printer, just now has visions of vast wealth flouting before her eyes, and these visions she claim' ll will materialize if the courts give her justice. Through a St. Louis Sawyer she has just entered suit in San Francisco, claiming the estate of Thus, if. Blythe, the three-fold millionaire, who recently died there. She says her father c line to St. Louis in 1819,and was married to a Miss Bessie Morgan. Due child was born, and the mother died. This child was given to a family named Bay, residing in an Illi nois village and the father went to Cali fornia where he grew wry rich. The child, the present claimant, knew nothing about her parentage until she was an orphan, i Bhe married, was widowed, and five years ago married Hitchcock, her present hus band, who is a printer at Waco, Texas. She told your correspondent to-day that she was confident of establishing her claim. The estate is now in possession of a thir teen-year-old girl, who claims to be a daughter of the dead millionaire. A It 11 ml Mini I’luys lVhlst. Providence Journal. A quiet passenger in the smoking car going out of Providence the other day, whom several of those seated nearest him I noted was blind, spoke up, after a consul tation with his companions, and asked "! ■inybody here would take a hand In a ganv if whist?” A smile that was almost audi ble went around the car, and an amuse: murmur was provoked at the other em when the word reached them that ther- was a blind man aboard who wanted som one to play whist with him. A party wit made up, however, and in it the whole nt tentioti of the car wns concentrated. An the blind man and his partner led their ad versaries fifteen points in nbout us man,, minutes, playing with a pack of cards wit! raised “spots,” the three players who hai their eyesight naming their cards as the, played them. The first tiiinii' of llatu'linll. Philadelphia Times. Just forty years ago, on the 19ti> of June 1846, was played the first match game o baseball. It occurred in Hoboker , N. J. though both the contesting clubs belonged in New Yoij;. This original match game consisted of only four innings, the rule then being that the club first making 2. runs in even innings should be the victor. The rules did not provide for the calling of either balls or strikes, and hence if a play er reached his first base in safety, his suc cessor at the bat would stand idly at the home plate, wnothing the pitcher ano catcher as they tossed the ball back and forth, and waiting for the latter to let the ball go past him, and so enable the base runner to reach second, then third and then home. He never made any attempt to strike the ball until the run had been scored. II Southemized Yankee Who Has Eight Pounds and a Half Alien Flesh. GRAY’S ’ Semi-Annual Inventory Sale now o-oinsra- oust.

Her joints were swollen and distorted, great knots had formed upon her hand. She could only with great difficulty and pain manage to walk, and was a constant suf ferer from this dreadful disease.
