WEEKLY REPORT.
OFFICE OF THE MORNING NEWS, I
Sayaekah. Ga.. Sept. 28. 1888. f
Oeeeral Remarks.—The position of affairs in
the peneral market is assuming a much more
satisfactory shape. There is a freer movement
of the cotton crop, while there Is a prospect of a
oonaiderable modification of the hitherto rigor
ous quarantine regulations and that supplies
will be allowed to go forward more freely and
greater dispatch, as in some parts of
Florida the people are suffering for lack of sup
plies. There is great complaint among jobbers
of a slowness of collections from the interior.
j t i 8 believed. however, that they
improve during next month. Busi
ness In pretty nearly all departments
was quite brisk and a very satisfactory move
ment was had, although there was less urgency
}n orders from nearby territory owing to its
being the closing week of the month There
was a better tone to values and they were well
and steadily held with but few exceptions.
The demand in the grocery and
provision trades continues qufte heavy
and the wholesale jobbers are kept very busy in
meeting their daily orders by mail and wire.
For dry goods there was a slightly better de
mand, stimulated by the few days of cooler
weather. In all other branches the shipping
movement was pretty even and fairly satisfac
tory. There is a very active demand for
money, while the supply is barely suffi
cient to meet the wants of regular customers
of the banks at current rates. Securities con
tinue active for investments, the preference
being for long-date bonds and guaranteed stock.
The following review of the week’s business
will show the tone and the latest quotations
of the different markets to-day:
Naval Stores.—' Tim market for spirits tur
pentine was quiet during the past week. Prices
Were easier owing to more liberal receipts, and
declined IWc. since last report. Buyers were
rather indifferent until to-day, and the
market closed with buyers and sellers
somewhat apart. The sales for the week
were about 12,000 casks. Rosin—The market dur
ing the week was quieter and prices for medium
pale grades eased off slightly, while strained to
good st rained held steadily at quotations. The
total sales for the week were about 7,200 barrels.
Elsewhere will be found a weekly com
parative statement of receipts and exports
from the beginning of the season to date, and
for the same period last year, showing the
rtocks on hand and on shipboard not cleared,
tosret her with the official closing quotations.
Rice.—The market during the last week was
necessarily quiet, owing to the small receipts
and the lightness of the offering stock of clean.
There is, however, a very good demand, and
prices hold firmly at quotations. The extent of
the damage in some sections is not as great as
was thought a week ago. and the harvesting is
going on rapidly. The receipts will, it is be
lieved. increase the coming week. The sales for
the week were about 075 barrels.
The following are the official quotations of the
Foard of Trade. Small job lots are held at

ing throughout the week. The demand was
fairly active, but it was principally for the

The stock market was again very active and
strong all day, and the result of the transi
tions is to leave most of the list hut frac
tinnaUy changed from last night's figures. Con
trary to the expectation of bulls, London was
seller to a considerable extent in this market
to-day, and that fact dampened the confident
feeling somewhat, and throughout the day
there was free liquidation of long accounts,
which prevented the general list from ad
vancing much. Heavy sales of New England,
which all indications pointed to before the in
side account, was also a serious clog on the
bullish temper of the room. Traders were gen
erally ranged upon the side of higher figures.
The expected important meeting of tlie trunk
line caused these stocks, and Vanderbilts espe
cially, to bo very activ and strong. Igike Shore,
Canada Southern, Michigan Central, New York
Central aud Nickel Plate stocks all made hand
some gains, which were held to the close.
Gould stocks were more prominent than for a
long time. It was again reported that Missouri
Pacific had secured St. Louis, Arkansas and
Texas, and the former stock responded witlt i.
rise of 2% per cent,, while other Gould, stock
and St. Louis, Arkansas aud Texas securities
all advanced materially. A few othew special

active and strong. The declines this evening
are small and few in number. Missouri Pacific

“The market opened steady this morning at
about last night’s closing advices from Fiver
pool, showing that market unchanged. I p to
the time that the government report was an
nounced, indicating a strong probability of
Iro-d throughout the south to night, trie market
was without special feature, but the fear of ful
fillment of the Weather Bureau’s prediction
was at once seized upon ns a lever with which
to advance prices, and with the exception of
< )ctober’s closing figures, showed a gain of
about five points under the covering of shorts
which took place. October was held in place
only by the pressure of low grade cotton,which
promises to be tendered on that, month's con
tract.”

Chicago, Sept. 28. The wheat pit was again
the c Miter of attraction to day. Theattendance
was unusually large. The early session was
noticeable for activity, and a large business was
transacted in all of the various futures within a
higher range of prices. But a desperate effort
was made to break prices and the raid proved
partially uccesaful. excepting for September
future which ruled strong, and another 25c
per bushel was added to the advance of yest-er
day, at which figure that future was held. The
opening for September was the same as the
closing figures of yesterday and with 6c jumps
prices struck Si 50, at, which figure the market
rested, and at noon traders, who had control of
the market, offered to effect settlements on
that basis. The opening for deferred futures
was about lc higher than yesterday's closing,
and prices were further advanced aoout I4<fs%c
for December and May, but liberal speculative
offerings acted as a bulwark against a further
advance. It soou developed t iat a ••raid” was
to be made oil these deliveries. Offers were
liberal enough to cause a break of l(j£l Oc
tober futures in the meantime declining
The weakness was assisted some by a report
that some wheat was being shipped from St.
Louis, so also to the rumor that wheat was en
route from other point t.o Chicago. Prom the
leciine noted the mart, t reacted but
becamo weak again and finally settled off lc
very quickly, ruling weak and closed 2c lower
for October, lo\.*** for December and
lower for .May than the closing figures yester
day. Trading in corn was quite general, and
the market was very active most of the session,
a higher range of prices being es ablisbed. Th
