Sept. 4.—Th* Manufac turers’ Record of this week publishes six peges of RDecial letters from leading bankers in all parts of the south as to the financial condition and prospects of general business and fanning interests. These reports uniformly show that im- mediately after the Baring failure, southern merchants pnd bankers pur sued a very conservative policy and at once commenced to curtail all their op erations and to mske preparations for a long period of monetary stringency, if should come. The effect of this, while lessening the volume of trade, has been a reduction of indebtedness and the placing of all business and banking in terests ou a very solid financial basis. It also resulted in the borrowing of less advance money by cotton planters than for many years, and hence the present crop has lees indebtedness against it than crops of former years. In all parts of the south farmers are reported as less in debt than for years, many re ports saying that their indebtedness is- smaller than at any time since the war, dne, in part, to enforced economy on account off the monetary stringency c since last fall, and in part to the large crops of the last few years. The low price of potion in the spring caused planters to pay more attention to raiz ing their own food supplies, and the south will probably be less dependent upon other sections for corn and wheat than ever before. . It is estimated that the grain crops off the south this year will aggregate nearly on* hundred million bushel* more than in 1890, and this, added to the large yield of frnits and vegetables, will keep at home at least seventy-five million dollar* that last year went north and west for food stuffs.
