Savannah. Jan. 17. 1890. f
r.rsERKL Remarks.—There was a little bet
((>r fetling manifested in the general market
Uir in g the past woek by the prospect of colder
~B ' i more seasonable weather. There was a
i;-tle more animation shown and was observe
u e more among the wholesale jobbing trains.
kcJo a good deal more activity was had than
, or geveral weeks back. Orders have
estae to hand quite liberally so
,„. u the movement in volume
was satisfactory for the week. There was also
, uumber of spot buyers, but the bulk of the
business was travelers' solicitation. The money
iu trket was quite easy, although the demand
continues active. Domestic exchange was
fairly steady. Foreign was weak and declining
until to day, when it reacted somewhat and be
, ime steadier at a slight recovery. The secu
rtv market was slightly active, but business
1. anted, owing to the scarcity of the most de
(.irable bonds for investment. Collections were
very fair, and in much better shape than for
weeks past. In groceries the demand
as quite extensive, and a considerable amount
of business was accomplished ou out-of-town
orders. In provisions the demand was only fair,
and prices at the moment are steady. In dry
goods there was some increase in the demand
incident to the opening of the spring
trade, and as travelers are all out. from now on
a more active movement is looked forward to
if favored with seasonable weather. In hard
ware the conditions are but little changed, ex
cept possibly slightly more activity shown, and
stocks aro moving out freely. In lumber and
building materials there is a heavy demand,
while the movement is aided considerably by
ample freight accommodations. In all other
departtuets there was no special activity, al
though there was a good, steady trade in
progress in a majority of branches. The fol
lowing resume of the week's business will show
l he tone and the latest closing quotations of the
different markets to-day:
Naval Stores.—The market for spirits tur
pentine was very dull during the past week, and
[o a great extent nominal. The demand was
quite slow, while the receipts were largely in
excess of the wants of the buyers, and prices
in consequence weakened and fell of fully
re, closing to-day steady at 40c for
regulars. The sales fur the week were
about 150 casks. Rosin—The market was
fairlv firm for all grades except pales, which
were unsettled and irregular, advancing slightly
t lie first half of the week, but again falling off
at the close. There was a good, steady inquiry,
and the offering stock wat pretty full, but none
too much for the demand. The total
sale? during the week were fully 1,600
barrels. In another column will be found
a weekly comparative statement of the
receipts and exports from the beginning of the
season to date, and for the same time last
year showing the stocks ou hand aud shipboard
not cleared, together with the official closing
quotations.
—The market during last week was
very firm, and advancing, closing to-day with
prices fully 5-16 C. higher all around than since
last report. Tne demand was fairly active and
general, and the market was pretty well swept
of all the offering stock, and that remain
ing in first hands is held for
higher figures. The amount afloat is
large, but it is somewhat counterbalanced by
the smallness of the stocks at the ports and in
terior towns, while receipts all around are
showing some slacking up, so that the statis
tical position of the staple has stiffened con
trolling markets. The total sales for the week
foot up 4.075 bales. Tho follow,ng are the offi
cial closing spot quotations of the cotton ex
change:
Middling fair 10 9-16

hags, distributed as follows: 75 bags to Hr -
men and 784 bags to northern mills. There was
a steady to good demand throughout the week,
and stocks were very firmly held, and fire tty
full prices were paid for the select grades. The

Rice—The market took on a much b tter feel
ing during last week, and prices exhibited con
siderable firmness, and holders in some in
stances obtained higher values. There was a
fairly steady inquiry, but orders w ere not very
heavy, and in consequence the business was
rather limited, although much better than for
some time back. The total sales for the week
were fully 1,600 barrels.

Tde stock market again showed a diminished
volume of business to day, sales in both depart
ruents of the exchange being materially s nailer
than those for any day recently, while fluctua
tions, exoept in a few special stocks, were en
tirely insignificant. Lackawanna and Reading,
the two most active stock * of tbe dav, were
traded iu over a range of % and )4 per •cut.
respectively, which Is a sufficient commentary
upon the character of tho day's market. Ir
general there was a firm undertone displayed,
and for the first time in weiks the *be irs were
inactive in the market, or were covering snorts
in a smalt way. Tnis was more conspicuous in
coalers than anywhere -Iso in the list, but there
was also some buying for long account in those
stocks. The features of tradiug were all In low
priced specialties, thong 1 those in low-priced
Vanderbilts were the most important. Canada
Southern early attracted attention by its sharp
a id su i ten rise on limited business, aud later
in the day C., C., C. and St. Louis common per
formed the same feat, and although purchases
could bo trac/d to no source, the efTect upon
the rest of tbe list was stimulating, though
without much prac ical effect, l’nere was a
disposition to sell Boston favorites in tbe early
trading because of the great flro in that city,
but iu New England and Union Pacific th-re
was considerable stock wanted at good figures,
and selling esased. In the unlisted department
there was considerable pressure upm Sugar
Refineries in tbe early dealings, and a decline
of 1 |*r cent, was effected, but the general im
provement brought that up, too, and it closed
with a fractional riae again to-night. Cotton
Oil, however, was especially weak, for no ap
parent reaton, and alter a drop of 1)4 per cent,
ft recovered only )4 per cent. Wisconsin Cen
tral, helped by the report of its earnings and
tbe strengthening of its alliance with Northern
Pacific, made another sharp turn In the upward
direction and score Ia material improvement
for tbe day. Th * market closed dull and >1 toady
but generally at small fractions above opening
figures. Final cuanges are almost luvarnibly in
the .lrectlon of higher prices, but only C , C„
C. and St. Louis wtth 1)4 per cent., and Wmrou
sin Central with I*4 per cent., show mote than
a small fractional advance. Cot on Oil was
down 1 per cent. Railroad bonds displayed
more activity and more features to-day, with a
decidedly firm tone throughout. Bales reached

The Sun’s cotton review says: "Cotton
futures advanced 18@20 points, with Liverpool
up equal to about that much, and Imying here,
while there was also good buying by (lei mans,
local shorts, and others, the day being active
and excited. One small failure occurred. The
advance was about eveu, spring and summer
months being strong. Some of the southern
spot markets were higher. The south both
bought and sold. Cotton on spot was l-16c
higher.”

Chicago, Jan. 17.—A dull feeling was de
veloped In wheat to day, and while the opening
was Armer. there was not sufficient life to the
market to sustain prices, and a gradual letting
up in values followed. Later the market be
came weaker, price* eased off gradually 44®
then held steady, but shortly before the
close broke off ©e more, and closed about 4©
*yc lower than yesterday. Corn ruled dull and
neglected, trading h-iug smaller than at any
time for a we-k jsist. and coutinad almost ex
clusively to Mae. There was nothing new de
veloped of interest to operators, about the only
feature Is-iugthe selling of May by a pr.m n -nt
local trader, wno sold, perhaps. 2,000,000 buahel*
at 31 l 4 c There was no change in oats. Re
ceipts were again reduced until they have lie
come quite small. Offerings in i<ork were light,
an 1 tlie demand was limited. Snorts purchased
a few lots in a quiet way. and there was no par
ticiilar pressure to sell Prices were without
material change. Very litt e interest was mani
fested in ttie market for lard. Offerings were
moderate, sn 1 the demand was light- Priest
exhibited very little change. A fairly active
trade was reported for ribs, and the feeling w as
steadier. Inquiry was chiefly for May.
