Market Strength Builds as Corn Belt Optimism Sets In
The New York market opened with strength and closed higher, amid favorable country reports from the corn belt and general business. Analysts anticipate another price rise beyond 1887 levels, aided by crops and easy money. Wheat and corn crops show strong potential, while money markets expect firm rates in September, with some call money near 4 to 5 percent and outstanding credit still ample. Subscriptions to the Meigs elevated railway grow, and railroads report a car shortage, Erie needing about 1000 more cars than on hand.
