Savannah, Ga.. Oct. 21, 1887. I •
WEEKLY REPORT.
General Remarks—The week under review
was a comparatively quiet one in commercial
circles. Business in the general market was
rather moderate, more particularly in jobbing
lines. Shipping orders from the interior were
quite slow. The yellow fever now pre
vailing in Florida, and the rigid
quarantine of towns in that State,
bas had rather a depressing effect on business
here, and travelers are thereby prevented from
covering then - usual territory. It has also
caused some curtailing of the usual trading
average for this period of the year. The course of
values in the leading staples is still somewhat
unsteady, and for the most part tending down.
In groceries there was a smaller volume of busi
ness with the interior. The local trading, how
ever, was in better form. Meats and sugars de
clined. Dry goods there was a better inquiry
than the week previous, and a fair business is in
progress. Travelers are out on the road for the
second time this season, looking up collections
principally, as the weather has not encouraged
buying winter fabrics as yet. In all other branch
es there Is an irregular demand, and business
in a few departments is moderate, but perhaps
reaches the average more frequently. There is
a heavy demand for money, but the banks find
no trouble in supplying it at the ruling rates, 7
per cent, for both call and time loans. Collec
tions were fair. The security market was quiet,
though there existed some demand for Central
railroad stock and debentures. The appended
resume of the week's business will show the
tone and latest quotations of the different
markets at the close to-day:
Naval Storks.— The market, for spirits tur
pentine was rather irregular and unsettled dur
ing the week, opening firm at 31 kjjc. for regulars.
It sold up to 32c. for regulars and was held
higher. It again sagged off, closing the week
at 31%c. There was a fair demand, but offer
ings were comparatively small. The total sales
for the week were about 1,700 casks. Rosin—
the market was very firm throughout the week,
but not quotably higher. There was a fairly
steady inquiry, but t.Ue offerings were not as full
as usual. The sales diming the week were about
12,000 barrels. In another column will be found
a weekly table of receipts and exports from
April 1 to date, aud for the same period last
vear, showing the stocks on hand and on ship
board not cleared, together with the official
closing quotations.
Rice.— The market during last week was com
paratively steady. There was a pretty fair in
quiry, but the heaviest trading was made on
concessions, and prices sold down Vgc. all round.
There was a fairly large business doing for the
week, and tully 2,500 barrels were disposed of.
The receipts are quite free, but not in excess of
last. year. There is, however, some aeeumula
tions of stock. The following are the offi
cial quotations of the Board of Trade. Small
job lots are held at higher:
Fair
Good 4t|'P.4<’|
Prime
Rough-
Tide water $1 10@1 25
Country lots 90@1 00
Cotton. —The market was quiet during the
week. Prices, however, were rather irregular
and unsettled, opening the week at an advance
of l-16c. On Monday they fell off l-16c., and on
Tuesday a further decline of l-10c. took place,
on Wednesday they were advanced l-16e., clos
ing at the opening prices of a week ago.
There was rather an indifferent in
quiry. but on the decline a good
business set in. which was restricted as soon as
the rally in prices occurred. There were no
other important features, except that the bulk
of October orders are pretty well covered.
There are, however, some yet to be filled, and a
better business is looked for the coming week.
The total sales for the. week were 10,900 bales.
The following are the official closing spot quota
tions of the Cotton Exchange:
Middling fair 9 5-16
Good middling 9^
Middling . 9
Low middling 8 13-16
.Sea Island —The receipts for the week up to
4 p. m., as reported by factors, were 1,096 hags,
and the sales for the same tune were 960 bags,
leaving the stock at 2,077 bags. There was
considerable inquiry, and factors were pretty
firm holders, although, however, the business in
the early part of the week- was on the basis of
previous prices, but later on prices were ad
vanced, and the market closed steady at the
advance. The bulk of the above sales were at
quotations:

"The market for cotton options has looked
rather loppy during the greater part of the day,

umous to realize. During the last hour a
partially successful attempt to rally the tone

to-day* and not much changed from yesterday's

stronger, and prices ruled higher Receipts of
hogs ware smaller than estimates and prices

only moderately active. liKj-dry on shipping

New York, Oct. 21.—Foreign advices worn
more favorable than anticipated this
morning, but the opening market soon showed
the presence of large selling orders, and as the
months came around prices eased off until a
decline instead of an ad vane ■ was recorded.
Ralii Bros, have continued to support the Octo
ber market until they have commenced to draw
cotton here from the near-by Southern markets,
giving gre it strength, therefore to quotations
of sp its in those markets, and the advance at
the close was due to their bidding large blocks
of October, with which they were finally landed
at the top of the market. But for this demon
si ration prices would have closed at. a decline
from yesterday greater than they did. The
market has taken a large amount of long cot
ton to-day that lies been transferred from
strong to weak hands, and the result will de
pend, we think, on the disposition of the for
eign markets to approach October prices The
Oct iber shipments have been larg ily tilled, and
we find more cotton offering from the Month
than for several duys days past. A severe
storm, passing from Mobile in a northeast di
rection, has doubtless injured the fpiality of the
opeu cotton and igterfer • 1 witli the movement.
Room trader expect better Liverpool advices
to-morrow.
