WEEKPY REPORT.
OFFICE MORNING NEWS. )
Savannah. March 21. 1890. f
General Remark*.—The we.-k again opened
with very severe wintry weather. Indeed, th 1
freeze was more severe than any experienced
this year, and reports are very general from ail
larters of the damage resulting to the vegeta
hie and fruit crops, and that which was not
hurt by the previous freeze failed to esca; e the
last, so that it is be ieved that the
early crops are virtually killed and farming
operations greatly retarded. In the general
market, however, there was a fair business do
ing. and while there was no great show of
activity among jobbers, there was more than
the average amount of trading going on for this
period of the year. The demand for groceries
continues in full volume, and quite a heavy
movement took place, more particularly of the
heavy goods and staple articles, for which there
is always a steady demand. In dry goods there
was a quiet though firm feeling; the outside
trade is about fully supplied with stocks of
spring goods, but the consumptive demand was
cut short somewhat by the cold weather, and
no further extensive trading is ex
jiected except the usual reassert
ing demand in replenishing broken lines
of s' ■ 'ok. The movement in hardware continues
quite steady, also building materials and lum
tier. Provisions, fertilizers, etc., are moving
out freely. In all other branches there was a
fair amount of business doing. Collections are
p ,1. although the money market is stringent,
whde ihe tendency all over the country is to
ward contraction. Stocks are more active,
while for bonds there is some dearth of
demand. Foreign exchange is firmer
and higher. The course of values has been
e imperatively steady, although in the leading
n pies there wasa hardening tendency. The
appended resume of the week's business will
show the tone and the latest closing quotations
ihe different markets to-day.
Naval Stores.-The market for spirits tur
pentine was unsettled and rather irregulrr dur
ing tbo week. In the first part prices were
tinr. and steadily advanced, regulars selling up
to 41c., but it again sagged oil and sold down
to 40c, the market closing dull at the
last named figure. There was a slow
demand and a comparatively small business
one. The total sales for the week were about
1 .fOd casks. Rosin—The market tias continued
firm throughout last week, with some advance
in the better grades. There was a
fairly steady inquiry with only mod
erate offerings. The total sales for the
week were about 9.003 barrels. Elsewhere
will be found a weekly comparative table of the
receipts and exports from the beginning of the
season to date, and for the same time last
y ear, showing the stocks on hand and shipboard
not cleared, together with the official closing
quotations.
Cotton— The market was dull during the past
v.eek. although prices have remained steady
and unchanged. There was a very light de
mand, with only a small business doing. The
larger holders were quite firm, and were asking
higher than the current quotations. Buyers,
however, were somewhat indifferent, more
particularly as there is some scarcity
<n the desirable grades, while the
bulk of the stock offerings is of the better
qualities. Receipts at the ports continue to fall
'•lf heavily, and the local receipts are behind
those of last year. The market closed to-day
firm with the total sales for the week at 1.7:25
bales. The following are the official closing
spot quotations of the cotton exchange:

Sea Islands —The total receipts for the week
rp to I p. in. as reported by factors were
106 bags and the sales 127 bags.
The exports were 381 bags. all to
1 iverpool. The market was dull and easy
throughout the week, and the sales were at the
inside ligares. For the bulk of the'holdings,how
ever, the outside prices are required. Tne de
mand is limited. Occasionally, a small lot
finds a purchaser at easy figures:

The receipts of cotton at this port from all
sources the past week were 4,319 bales of up
land and 100 bales sea island, against 6,208
bales of upland and 130 bales sea island last
year.
The particulars of the receipts have been as
follows: Per Central railroad. 2,073 bales up
land; per Savannah, Florida and Western
railway, 1,789 bales upland and 10J •
bales sea island; per Charleston and Savannah
railway, 11 bales upland; per Savannah river
steamers, 432 bales upland; per Florida steam
ers. 3 Imie upland; per Darien and Altamaha
steamers, 11 biles •upland', and 2 bales sea
islands.
The exports for the week were 12,631 bales of
upland and 331 hales sea island, moving as fol
lows: To New York, 2,864 bales upland;to Bal
timore, M 0 bales upland; to Boston 451 biles
upland and 391 bales sea island; to Philadel
phia, 50 bales upland; to St. Petersburg, 3,750
bales upland; to Reval, 1,479 bales upland; to
Or fits, 1,150 bales upland; to Barcelona, 2,350
hall's upland. Tne stock on hand to-day was
21,122 bales upland and 2.074 bales sea island,
against 45,682 bales upland and 747 bales sea
island last year.
Rice.—There was relatively no change in the
market for Ibis grain during last week, it was
very quiet and pricts if anything slightly
• isier. There was nothing in the demand to
warrant any heavy business and operators re
"ort orders as arriving rather slowly, while the
!"cal dealers are not doing much'. Holders,
however, express some confidence in the future
o! the market, as the statistical position is very
-disfaclory and it is believed that the last,
freeze lias virtually destroyed the early vege
table crops. The sales during the week were
about 1,000 barrels.

Dullness in thd stock market, which was the
most conspicuous feature yesterday, was even
more intense 10-day until the last hour, when
the only approucu to activity was had. Every
one was holding off, and neither hide was dis
posed to press any little advantage it might
nave, though a few marked movements were
made during the day. The bang statement is
again the priucip.il point of anxiay, and
should t -morrow s statement prove a favor
able one. anew buying movement is Jikeiy to
result, though nothing oi large proportions is
to be expected until after the April settlements
are out of the way. The dullness to-day up to
2 o’clock p. m. was simply oppressive, and sales
of listed stocks up to noon were only about
49,000 shares, widen tbe next two hours’ trading
increased but little, which is a sufficient indica
tion of the complete apathy which seems to
have taken hole! of even traders. Tbo only
feature cf the forenoon was huger Refineries,
which sold down a trifle in the early dealings,
but the reception of news that the court had
granted \ or mis*, on to pay a dividend rallied it
to above vd, though tber • seemed to bf plenty
of stock for sale at that price, and It afterward
reacted. An app icatiou for an injunction
against the payment of a dividend up >n Oni
cago Gan was the occasion o’ a drive at that
stock m tne afternoon, audit bro’ce front \\y A
to4I H on comparatively iivily trading. The

were advanced for May delivery; then fol

advancing to the outside rangw. *assi i*ff, and
closing v.m* ab ut *'vc higher for May
; than yesterday. Juno and Julv deliveries oil

fo J* May. and operators were reluct jsnf about

th* manipulation liable on account- ot the Un.

fornia repordng more rain and Sac: a nento
valley fioi led; also that r -cent frosts had done
seine and image to wheat. Snow was reported at
Minneapolis, but the weather in the we it isg*n
era'ly reported fine. In com there whs a fair
amount of npecuutive business, and the sltu*-
tion was relatively’ firm early, influenced largely
b.v the strength <f wheat, but later an easier
tom* was dev loped, due largely’ to large esti
mat and receipts. Tne market opened at yester
day's dosing pr vs. was (inn for a time and
sold up a trifle. Houses that I*.tight yesterday
purchased again to day, but offerings became
larger and prices declined Vic. a local operator
selling molerately. and final quotations were
the same as on yesterday. In oats th* market,
although fairly active, failed to exhibit the life
and large volum * of trading noted yesterday.
There wa? good buying by several largo opera
lot's. but offerings wer lineral, anl their wants
weru supplied. The feel.ng at the opening was
rather easy and price ; rcceil * l sligntly, ra.li :d

yesterday, in pork th* re was not much doln ’,
