PRICES ON A LOW LEVEL.
Farmers to Boy Few Manufactured
Products.
Wheat and Cotton at the Lowest Points
on Becord During the Past Week—The
Largest Yield Ever Known Looked
for if the Weather Continues Favor
able.
New York, Oct. s.—Bradstreet's to-mor
row, Oct. 6. will say: “While no radical
change has appeared this week there are
features of the situation pointing to con
tinued progress in the direction of im
provement. This is true of the country
at large. From the south the most favor
able report comes from Jacksonville,
where wholesale trade is good and retail
trade improving. Merchandise is moving
satisfactorily from Savannah and from
Charleston and Chattanooga.
“Nashville rinds encouragement In In
creased bank clearings although collec
tions have been disappointing.
"Business has been fair at Memphis in
dry goods, shoes and clothing, and at At
lanta the volume of trade has increased
ten per cent, in most leading linfes.
“Improvement is also shown at Augusta
and the volume of sales of groceries and
hardware from New' Orleans has in
creased. Galveston and Birmingham, Ala.,
report no changes.
R. G. Dunn & Co.’s w’eekly review of
trade to-morrow will say: “The lowest
prices ever known for wheat and corn
necessarily imply somewhat restricted
consumption of other products. With the
chief money crops of the west and south
sinking in value It Is not strange that the
purchases of manufactured products are
smaller than was expected. Wheat has
touched the lowest point ever known for
options, and cotton the lowest ever known
in any form with the present classiiica
tion, and the accumulation of stocks in
both products is discouraging purchas
ers for an advance. Producers are com
pelled to sell at prices below' the ordinary
cost of raising crops, and in some west
ern states there is also a lamentable fail
ure of the corn *rop. I’nder the circum
stances It would be very strange if the
demand for manufactured products should
be quite as large as in other years.
“Cotton is one eighth lower, the cash
price being the lowest known for 45 years,
and considering the difference in classi
fication it is perhaps lower than at any
time In 1849, and estimates that the crop
Is more than 10,000,000 bales, are more com
monly credited now' than estimates of
8,600,000 were two months ago. With fa
vorable weather the yield seems likely to
net the largest ever known.
"Cotton prtnt cloths are a shade
stronger, as the news from Fall river re
garding the duration of the strike is less
encouraging, but for other goods the mar
ket is slow, as might be expected in view
of the heavy decline in the raw material.
"The condition of the Industries Is in
some respects more satsfactory. Kvi
dently there is a larger demand for iron
products than there was a month ago,
though the increase in output has been
somewhat greater than the Increase In
the demand, so that prices steadily tend
downward.
"Bessemer pig Is selling at $10.90 at Pitts
burg, and bar iron at 95c, with steel bars
at $11.05, while a contract to suppress the
principal western competitor in nail man
ufacture to hold the price at $1 for wire
and 85 cents for cut nails.
"The structural market Is fairly active
at the west wdthout change at the east,
and while the coke output has now be
come the heaviest ever known, 149.775 tons
for the week, the price is declining and
steps are being taken to limit the supply.
The volume of domestic trade indicated
by the exchanges at the principal clear
ing houses is 11.8 per cent, larger than a
year ago, but in comparison with 1892
shows a decrease of 22.8 per cent.
"In the money market more commercial
paper Is coming into sight, though on the
w hole the market is by no means encour
aging, and good single name paper has
been placed at 3 per cent., the lowest rate
on record.
"The commercial failures in the third
quarter of 1891 have involved liabilities of
$29,361,196, exclusive of banking institu
tions and railroads, against $82,469 821 re
ported a year ago for the same quarter
and for nine months of 1894 the, liabilities
nave been $131,994,502 against $251,334,265
last year. The manufacturing liabilities
were $12,331,892 against $23,605,861 reported
a year ago, and in trading $14,131,230 for
the quarter, against $58,814,176 a year ago
- or the month of September the liabili
ties have been smaller than in any other
year only of which
were of manufacturing, and $3,-
of trading concerns. The failures
nu j J 1 **' week have been 219 in the
I-nited States, against 320 last year, and
39 in Canada, against 45 last year.
A FIGHT ON DISMISSALS.
An Attempt to Enjoin the Beading
Road Prom Discharging Employes.
Philadelphia, Oct. s.—Attorney William
I. Montague of Washington appeared in
the United States circuit court this morn
ing and asked Judge Dallas to interfere
with the intended discharge, on Monday,
cf some of the employes of the Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company,
which he stated was to be made because
of their connection with a labor organi
zation. He applied for a restraining order
to prevent the discharge of the men until
the matter could be disposed of by the
court. As Attorney Montague had not
notified the counsel for the Reading re
ceivers, Judge Dallas declined to take
Immediate action. The matter was post
poned until Monday morning at 10 o'clock,
and in the meantime the receivers counsel
will be given notice of the proceedings.
The name of the labor organization and
the number of men to be discharged was
suppressed. The only reference to the or
ganization by Attorney Montague was
that the grand master workman lives in
Illinois. There were several railroad em
ployers with the lawyer, but their names
were not given to the judge.
Mr. Montague did not file a petition
which he had in his hands while address
ing the court, but took it away with him.
As Mr. Wilkinson, the head of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, re
sides at Galesburg, 111,, it is presumed
that this is the organization involved.
BUKZ CANAL STRIKE.
The Company Applies to France for
Protection.
Cairo, Oct. 8.-The Egyptian Gazette
says it is rumored that the Suez Canal
Company has applied to the French gov
ernment for protection of its property in
Egypt. This application Is said to have
been based on trouble which has arisen
on account of the strikes among the la
borers and others employed by the com
pany. The commander of the French
cruiser Froude, at Fort Said, is said to
have prepared to disembark u force of
marines and blue jackets in order to pro
tect the company's property.

KEY WEST’S DEADLY KEYS.
The Number of Seamen Lost on Them
Last Month May Never Be Known.
Key West, Fla., Oct. 6.—Nearly every
day fresh informaton reaehes here from
the Keys surrounding this place relative
to the loss of life in the recent hurricane.
Mr. Finder, who resides on east Mata
cumbta Key, was ‘here to-day. He
says that on the morning of Sept. 29, two
sailors drifted ashore with life preserv
ers from the British bark Brandon of
Quebec, from Ship Island, Pascagoula,
which ran ashore on Crocus reef at 10 o'-
whlch ran ashore on Crorus reef at 10 o'-
clock on the night of Sept. 26, and after
pounding over the reef, got into the chan
nel and capsized. Another of the crew
came ashore the same night. There were
seventeen in all on board, and these are
the only three that have been heard of
along the shore.
The captain, William Redford, had one
leg broken by a sea as soon ns the ship
struck the reef, and a Norwegian sailor
had both legs crushed—a sea knocking
him down by the pumps and throwing a
piece of timber across both of his legs,
and while two of his shipmates were try
ing to relieve him another sea lifted the
timber so as they could draw him out;
they then fastened a life preserver on
him. These surviving ones think that he.
the captain, mate, steward and another of
the crew were drowned as they were all
In the cabin when the ship turned bottom
up. The shore is full of pieces of her
cabin, forecastle and houses, and three of
her boats all smashed to pieces. Some
few pieces of hewn timber from her deck
are on shore. The names of the surviving
ones of the British hark Brandon are
John T. Warren, Woolwich, England;
William Spoforth and Lennart Lax, Fin:
land, Russia.
The Norwegian ship Theora was lost
off Turtle Harbor, but fortunately, all
hands were saved. W. J, H. Tavlor, the
English, Swedish and French vice con
sul, provided for the crews and looked in
every manner after their comfort.
On Sept, 28, Messrs. Sam Williams and
Leonard Lowe, discovered the body of a
drowned man on the outside of Tavanear
Key. After informing some neighbors of
the circumstances they repaired to a
place near where the body lay and pre
pared a grave above the hurricane tide
and laid to rest a stranger to all present
The body was much swollen and discol
ored, having nothing upon it which would
lead to identification.
It Is likely that the number of lives lost
will never be known, as communication
with the Keys is difficult.
CUBA’S CYCLONE.
The Banana Crop in the Eastern Part of
the Island Ruined.
New York, Oct. s.—lncoming vessels
bring details of the destruction wrought
by the great cydono which originated in
the West Indies, laying waste vast tracts
of lands aud playing havoc with every
thing afloat. J
The steamer Tyrian arrived lust night
from Gibara, whither she hau gone for a
cargo of bananas, out none were to be had
The plantations for miles in the eastern
end of Cuba had been devastated About
Banes 600,000 bunches of the fruit, it was
estimated, had been ruined. The vessel
managed to secure a small cargo of sugar
and tobacco.
The steamer Panama, from Havana Sept
30. brought further reports of the work of
the cyclone at Sagua la Grande. Though
the town is twenty miles from the ocean
the high tides caused the river Sagua to
rise so high that a third of the town’s
population were driven from their homes
while many sought safety on the tops of
their houses. The flood lasted fortv-eight
hours. Haiti poured in torrents for three
days, having commenced on Sept. 28, From
such reports as were at hand when the
Panama sailed it was believed that the
loss of life in Cuba would reach as high as
200, while the property damaged is esti
mated at between #2,000,000 and #3,000,000.
