WEEKLY REPORT.
OFFICE OF THE MORNING NEWS. I
Savannah. Ga., Sept. 9, 1887. \
General Remarks— The general market dur
ing the past week was quite animated and busi
ness is very active. Iu pretty much all lines
there is a heavy trade in progress. There are,
however, tu few spot buyers in the market.the
bulk of the business is being done on travelers
solicitation and mail orders. The heavy and
rapid movement of the cotton crop has given a
decided impetus to trade, and probably the
heaviest business that this market has ever
known at this period of the. year is now being
done. In groceries the shipping movement is
enormous, but with few price cbnnge.B.
Sugars were advanced. Provisions, the demand
is active and prices strong and advancing. In
dry goods there continues to be a very liberal
movement and stocks are well in hand, but with
no appreciable change in values. In all other
departments there was a freer demand than for
some time past. The money market is very
active and the banks And difficulty in supplying
the wants of borrowers. Domestic exchange is
easy and sterling weak. The security
market is dull and inanimate, being more or
less influenced by the money market. Collec
tions are slow and unsatisfactory. For condi
tions and latest quotations of the different mar
kets the following resume will show:
Naval Stores.— The market for spirits tur
pentine was quiet during the week and prices
were easy and declining, though at the close
holders were firmer, with buyers and sellers
more or less apart, 29c. being bid and refused
for regulars. The sales for the week
were about 2,500 casks. Rosin—The
market was also quiet during last week, and
prices remained unchanged. There was only a
fair inquiry. The sales for the week were about
0,500 barrels. In another column will be found
a weekly comparative table of receipts and ex
ports from the beginning of the season to date,
and for the same period last year, showing the
stocks on hand and on shipboard, not cleared,
together with the official closing quotations.
Rice.— There was an active demand through
out the week, with but very small offerings.
The old stock is about exhausted and the small
amount of new now being milled is readily ab
gr,rls>d as offered, which keeps the market
pretty well sold up. The receipts
as yet are quite light. Prices were strong and
advanced slightly. The total sales for the week
were about 1,300 barrels on the basis of quota
tions.

tive during last week, but prices were rather
irregular and unsettled, closing at a decline of

but later on became very active
and the selling heavy. There is
a considerable scarcity of the lower grades. The

The stock market to-day was dull and sag
ging. with no special feature of Interest until
the last hour, when a sudden and complete
change came over speculation, and decided
activity and strength took the place of dullness
and heaviness, western Union was the leader
throughout the day. and the inducement which
kept it to the front is shown by the premature
announcement made after business hour* to
day that Gould lias purchased the Baltimore
anil Ohio telegraph system. The general list
was influenced by the indisposition to purchase
shown by operators, though the lately pub
lished bullish utterances of Mr. Gould made
stocks which bear hi* name exceptions to the
drooping tendency of the general list. The
utterances referred to made hears rather cauti
ous, and no marked pressure was brought to
bear upon any one stock except Lackawanna,
which was prominently weak during the fore
noon. and Chicago, Burlington and Quincy and
Rock Island in the afternoon. Tiie first named
stock, however, fully recovered its losses iu the
late rally, while the latter two were sluggish
throughout. Wheeling and lake Erie was
strong all day, probably upon the fact that a
number of prominent financiers left this city to
inspect the road, which ha* been spoken of for
many months past as a nucleus of the new
trunk line system. The opening was dull, except
for Western Union aud New England, though
first prices were generally from *£® *$ percent,
above yesterday's final figures. Further Small
fractional gains were made in some stocks, but
the market quickly began to droop and lapsed
into extreme dullness. Losses or small frac
tions v. ere not recovered until the last hour,
and after noon the dullness was intensified,
while (lie movement in prioet ceased altogether.
After delivery hour the change was very
marked, and on heavy business the, market
rapidly advanced under the lead of Western
Union, everything showing an improvement.
The close was active and strong at the best

Green & Co.’s report on cottou futures says:
“The cotton contract market has held firmly all
day, aud made a gain in value of some four to
tire points, closing well sustained. There was
nothing in the way of new advices in hand from
the crop, while the port and interior movement
of supplies was very liberal, but buyers mani
fested a decidedly nervous feeling, aud the gen
eral tendeuey to cover created a stimulating In
fluence. Liverpool was buyer here to some ex
tern, and, together with Manchester, sent over
some pretty strong accounts, but the principal
source of apprehension was the ex needed crop
reports from Washington and New Orleans, the
impression being quite prevalent that the show
ing will Ih" more or less unfavorable. Spot cot

Chicago, Sept. 9.—This was a decidedly off
day on the Board of Trade. There was a mani
fest indisposition to trade, due largely to the
fact that the crowd was waiting for the govern
ment crop report, which is due to-morrow.
Wheat shared the general misfortune, which
seemed to have overt akin all of the markets.
The pit was nearly desertwi all day, and the
market was entirely devoid of interesting feat
ures. The market showed some straight at the
opening and sales were made %c above closing
figures yesterday afternoon, but realizing set iu
and with rather free offering the market settled
back %c, and the closing wa. about %c lower
than yesterday A light demand existed for
cash and offerings were limited. Buyers paid
within l!4e of October prices to-day to get wheat
with which to fill orders Corn was less active.
The feeling early was weaker and prices ruled
lower There were rumors that, the government
crop report to tie issued to-morrow would make
a favorable showing, milking the estimated crop
at 1,070,1100,000 bushels, which is about the same
as lust year. Receipts were nearly 100 cars more,
than expected, and estimates for to-morrow are
quite large-404 cars. These features had the
effect or increasing offerings, which became
liberal, considerable long corn coming on the
market. A prominent local operator, supisised
to be a large holder of corn, sold quite freely for
September delivery. The market opened at
about yesterday’s closing, was easy aud declined
%i4%c. near futures exhibiting less strength
than yesterday, later advanced and closed %e
lower for September, %(&!4 C for October, and
%(ci%c for May than yesterday's close. Oats,
cush and near futures were firmer, due probably
to small receipts. lieferred deliveries were quiet
and without essential change from yesterday's
advonetd or closed prices. Cash oats were tic
higher; No. 2 quote* lat 25c. Bale* were by wim
ple. however, leaving the instore market little
more than nominal. Provisions were very mod
erately active but unsettled. Short ribs were
again the favorite ami fluctuated sharply within
a 15c range. The market opened di m and 2145$
5c hJghcr: October sold to $8 95, broke to §8 80
on Increased offerings, due to weakness In com,
but before 1 o’clock the close became stronger
and a rally to outside prices followed, last sales
being at the top and 5c over yesterday's close.
January was weaker and closed 5c lower at
$0 55. I gird remained slow at $6 56@6 80, dos
ing at $6 57%; January declined w- and closed
at $6 11214. A fair business occurred in Jnnuary

Circular from Hubbard, Price & Cos.
(Through John 8. Ernest.)
New York, Sept. 9.—A very light business
has lieen done to-uay, as operators are. in doubt
as to the effect of the bureau report to-morrow.
It is surmised that it will show a marked de
crease in percentages, and the fear ot this has
led to covering by many of the local shorts. As
this demand was not met by any orders from
outside to sell, a quiet movement upward oc
curred, and with small dealings the market has
shown quite a degree of strength. The I'inan
rial Chronicle makes the crop of 1886-87 6,513,-
628 bales. Trade reports from abroad are re
assuring. The Manchester market is Arm.
Yarns are strong. Livergpol futures are a sliade
easier and one point- lower. Our advices from
the South show that there is a better feeling in
the cotton centres, because of the constant in
quiry,though officially quotations are no better.
Spots in New York are firm. Speculators are
much at sea in their opinions. The heavy in
terior movement and port receipts, and the
prospect of a continuance of them is offset by
the demand for consumption, and the largo
short interest at present prices. The “bears”
are not very confident, while the promise of an
increasing supply of new cotton lessens the
likelihood of much advance. Pending develop
ments, the disposition is to do little
