New York, August 11.—The move ments of tho market for the week just ending undoubtedly Indicate an im provement in the situation. For some time past it has been fluctuating alter nately under the Influence of fear and hope; 'but now fee undertone Is gradu ally broadening and strengthening, Ond there Is a marked tendency to discount u generally clarified financial atmos phere. ' It’ looks m though we have seen the worst of everything, and that the pendulum is at lust going to swing the other way. Outsldo of the all-Im- portamt tariff question, the corn crop has again 'been the greatest factor In the market for the past few days. The bears have been actively engaged In pounding the grangtrs, basing their action on the prospeot of reduced divi dends on these securities, as a result of tho prospective corn shortage. Their effdrts ' to bring out long stocks, how ever, have noit been practically suc cessful. and they And It difficult to cover their contracts without bidding up the market. Thq damage Is exclu sively confined to threo states—Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas—and in those states it almost proxlmates a calamity, and Is probably not exaggerated; but in the other states the crop will be a fair average to a large one. owing to the Increased acreage due to the low price of wheat last year and tho com paratively good price for corn. Tho crop in those states will largely ofTset the shortage caused by drouth—proba bly more than now expected. The es timated yield at present a matter of private estimates, which vary all the way from 1,400,000,000 to 1,600,000,000 bushels, with the chances from all tho data received that the latter will be about what this year's crop of corn will amount to. There Is a good and growing demand for the low-priced non-dividend stocks and the Cheap bonds. The feeling is that « great many of tbeae securities have been In such disfavor for a long time past that they .have been unduly depressed, and that when an lmprovment becomes general securities of this class are go ing to respond quickly. Gold ship ments have practically ceased lo be a factor in the market, as only small amounts of the precious metal have been Shipped during the week, and the ease In exchange does not Indicate n renewal of 'shipments In the near fu ture. ‘Washington advlcee regarding the tariff continue very conflicting and tend toward keeping stocks feverish, and while there Is so much uncertainty among our legislators the same feeling must naturally exist In Wall street cir cles. The feeling that eome definite decision, one way or She other, will soon be arrived at la gaining ground, however, and this feeling Is doing a good deal toward hastening the return of confidence. The stock of manufact ured goods In the United States Is lower than It has been for a great number of years, and ’there will soon be actual necessity for at least a partial resump tion of business on the part of manu facturers. A speedy settlement of the tariff debate will' give 'them a basis on which to start In, and that Is ell that Is needed. The entire stock market has fully discounted all adverse factors, and will now commence to consider and be governed by what is to come and'not what has passed; The pnnent conditions will be lost sight of and give way to those that may be,expected :o prevail six months hence and there after. By that time I do not hesitate to say that, the railroad earnings will hsve returned to their norms! condi tion, ond general activity tn eommer- rial channels will be restored. The thing; to do now, therefore. Is to dis count a general improvement In the fu ture. I recommend for buying stocks now for higher prices. The sharp ad vance the last few days In Louisville and Nashville and Western Union prop erties. whloh are not directly affected by either the crop or tariff news, fur nishes a sample of wbat we can expect with a renewal of existing tmfavor* b!e Influences.

Hiey Appear to Be Taking Possession of tho Territory. Tho growth of Oklahoma has been one of the most remarkable In the history of American territories. A few years ago it was a barren wilderness, Inhab ited only by savage Indians und law less white men: today it Is knocking at the doors of congress for admission to the Union ns a state. When It Is admitted It will have a larger Afro- American population of any state of it* size and population In tho Union outside the Southern state*. From fig ure* furnished the New York Sun re porter by Mr. Peter FlVnn Oliver, n reputable lawyer of El Reno, who went to Oklahoma from South Carolina a few years ago, it is learned that the Afro* American population numbers 66,000, there being 8,666 in Blaine county, 14,- 000 in Kingfisher county, 8,400 In Lin coln county, 10,000 in Logan county, the remainder being scattered in all the other counties. The total property hold ings t>f these people Is 36,353,326, di vided as follows: ,36.488,190 represented by 684.819 acres of fawn land, 337,400 represented by town property nnd 38(7,736 represented by personalty. Com menting on these figures which Mr. Oliver furnishes the Sun reporter by counties. Mr. Oliver says: "Th6 land in Oknhoma is largely raw and -the price I place upon It is ex tremely low. Settlers h ive hardly be gun to build elaborately, ond the ma jority of the pioneers brought with them no personalty worth mentioning save their teams when they first came; some came even teamless. The person alty valuation is. therefore, very low. If you could have seen this barren country, however. April 22, 1889, then gone away and dropped down upon us today you would have been wonder- struck at the metamorphosis. The dug- out, the sod house and the shock are being rapidly replaced by beautiful and oomfortable Homes for man and beast. “The estimates I have given you are for Oklahoma, excluding c/ttier portions of the old Indian Territory. There la.a large Afro-American population In thaV portion of /the territory, many of them worth their hundreds of thousands of dollars. The Creek and Bemlonle na tion* have more African than Indian blood In their veins, and Governor Brown of the Creeks, shows bis African more than hls Indian blood. He is a man of education and wealth. “The Klckapoo, the Kiowa, the Co manche and .the Apache land* are likely to come 1n soon for settlement. The next move will -then be upon the five civilized -tribes, who own their land* In common. Then the whole Indian Territory will -have been swallowed by the white man. ’Many lots of black men help 7n the swallowing.** The Afro-Americans have settled In eome parts almost -to-the exclusion of the whites. Langrfton City was f<>urid’-l by K. P. McCabe, who w.im once auditor of Kansas, a man of great resource and energy. The streets, ave nue* and boulevard* of Langston City art named in honor of prominet Afro- American*. It aupport* a weekly news paper called life -Herald. Air. McCabe projected andther town, but It Gas not prospered as well a* Langston Clay. (Mott of the Afro-American* In Ok- lihoma went there from the Southern states, Tennessee furnishing a very large -number, and these one constant ly drawing others after them, a* is nat ural and usual In such cases, so that It Is possible that when the territory Is admitted to the Union 4t will have an Afro-Amerioan population of aome 100.- 000. In several Instances, when these men have been menaced by unfriend ly Indians and whites, they have shown th* courage and determination which carried them hfto the territory and en abled them to secure homes In the wil derness were sufficient to protect them and their property.
