silver at New York. Last week Ole total
-value of silver exports was $1,800,000,
and for the year to date 89,162,000.
The prices of wheat hove been irregu-
lar the past few days, with a good. aeal
of liquidation in Chicago. Speculators
await with interesb the luth of the month,
when the U. S. Government publishes its
estimate of wheat in farmer& hands.
The 'visible supply of grain in the
United States and Cana.ds, decreased 922,-
600 bushels last week, and the total is

half of the total number, forty, thirty-

any commercial importance. British
Columbia held two, Nova Scotia, New
Brunewick and Manitoba had one each.
None were reported from Prince Edward
Island last week.
After the holiday a much firmer tone
in wheat appeared, and for a time it
seemed as though prices were goin.g to
reach a high figure. The iufluences to -
warn a th•mer position were numerous,
and in some case' stifficiently sti ong to
overcome manipulatio]1 in the uppoeite
direction. Although Argentine (exports
increased slightly to 914,U00 bushels, it
was reported that the exhaustion of land
and excessive rains would cut dewn the
iimportable surplus to only fifteen midlien
bashes, when three times that amount
had been confidently expected. dilhe latest
official statement of Ainerieerendsible sup-
ply decreased about aeimillion bushels,
and Thoman's estinnate of farmers' re-
serves was but, a:67,004,000 bushels against
165,000,0000gt this time in 1895. But

Overloaded Manitoba elevators also de-
preseed this market because heavy ship -

Last week exports from Ieussio, were very
heavy ; 2,4o8,00) bushels, ae''niust only
1,496,000 the week previous, and still loss
year ago. This also helped to counter-
act the tendency upward.—Dan's Review.

Tho Duke of Leinster, on meeting a

"I regret, owing to report made by my
steward, at having to dispense with your
services, as there is not, I believe, suifi-

Upon hearing this the man innocently
remarked :
"Faith! your Greco, there is no neces-
sity to dismiss me on amount of scarcity
of work. as very little would keep me
busy." His ready reply amused the duke,
who gave instructions for his retention.
