"■'■'' * New Zealand Herald Office. ':., - ;; Thursday evening. ? Suitable weather has enabled agricultural operations to be satisfactorily carried on. Farmers may be said to have finished planting and sowing. Crops ■ have . been put in under favourable conditions, and the outlook is good. -'"'.' : ;■/.<:- : } : *'v.'indicated early in September that an unusual amount of land had been dovoted to oats, potatoes, and wheat. This is especially the case in'regard to oats, the acreage sown with this cereal far exceeding that allotted in ' any previous season. "• Barley has not received muoh attention from agriculturists. •■- , ..- Some lessening of London stocks has brought about an upward tendency in the frozen meat markets Provincial growers hesitate.to run. the risks attendant upon exportation, and unless re-assured by continuing firmness and improvement in demand, they are not likely to tax the resources of the Auckland Freezing Company to any great extent. • Distributors generally report a fair amount of business for the past month, and look for increased trade during October. -There has been good movement in liquids, particularly in whisky, English beers, and champagne, Any increase in demand for the last named beverage is regarded as indisputable evidence of prosperous times, The Refinery Company ' announced a further reduction of 20s per ton in their sugar quotations of last week. Woolpacks are being asked for, and some holders incline to the opinion that importations are hardly calculated to do more than meet requirements. September witnessed the arrival of the Hawke's Bay, Aotca, and ship Waitaugi, from London,/ The steamers landed 'large quantities of cargo here, and much merchandise has come forward by transhipment from vessels arriving at Southern porta. \ Supplies of rice,' Black Horse' salt, and kerosene are urgently needed, but the present scarcity is likely to be remedied by early arrivals. , ' The Grace Deering has sailed for New York with part cargo of kauri cum, Her clearance manifest includes SSI bales flax, but this shipment is regarded as resulting rather from freight inducement than from any enquiry for the fibre in the States. t Suspense regarding the resale of the Presidential election is a probable cause oi the paucity of American orders for kauri gum. If our trans-Pacific cousins justify their reputation for sagacity and vote for sound currency, we expect to see renewed confidence in the form of demand. The insurrectionary disturbance in the Philippines may have the effect of enhancing the value of Manila fibre. Should this possibility become a fact, our phormium tenax may work inlo better request. The building and timber trades show activity. Sawmills are well occupied with local and export orders. A verdict passed upon our goldfields by an eminent visiting geologist, together with a presumably official ( inspection by the accredited representative of the French Government, points to increasing prominence and results in auriferous operations. Federation, from a mercantile point of view, is to be discussed at a conference of Australasian* Chambers of Commerce next month. The Auckland Chamber will not be represented, but will no doubt duly estimate the conclusions arrived at by the Conference. If Colonial or Imperial Federation is to come about;, the full union will be consequent upon commercial and fiscal approximations. Rumours have been iu circulation to the effect that one or more of the principal shipping lines trading between Europe and Australia contemplate the inclusion of New Zealand ports in their sphere of operations. New Zealand is, however, owing to its extensive coast and scattered ports, an evpensivo place for large ocean steamers, and we think the Australian liners will, for some time to come, continue to avail themselves of the connecting facilities afforded by the intercolonial boats. ' Unfortunately tor the satisfactory discussion of prospects of direct business with Manchester, the Commercial Delegates from that city have reached us at a time when our merchants are absorbed with outward mail requirements. Ic is to be hoped, nevertheless, that some of our prominent men will make an effort to attend the conference arranged for to-morrow.
KAURI GUM MARKET. Rather larger business lias been done in ordinary gum during the last four weeks than we were able to report a month ago, but there is no improvement in prices. On the other hand the demand for East Coast gum has considerably decreased, and its price has declined. American orders continue small. It is considered that unless the American market improves prices must recede, and holders must be prepared to accept much lower prices than for some years past. The opinion here is that if Mr. Bryan, the Democratic candidate for the Presidency, is elected, both the English and American markets will be injuriously affected. At the same time supplies are declining here which is considered the most effectual step towards bringing about a steadier market, the most desired circumstance at the present time. Owing to the great activity ot mining on the Hauraki goldfields, a larger number of the gumdiggers have secured employment in the various gold mining districts, which, if continued, will, no doubt, considerably diminish the gum output in the future, The prices quoted, however, may be looked upon as purely nominal} The quotations are :
