COMMERCIAL.. SAVANNAH MARKETS. WEEKLY REPORT. OFFICE MORNING NEWS. ) Si Y ASX AH. May 16. 1890. t General Remarks—'The general market dur jjjy tie last wees was very quiet, and. in fact, era ling has about settled down to its usual summer basis. There were very few features of moment except, apparently, that a general paction baa set in in most of toe markets and r ices, sritb some few exceptions, show a lower tea ieucy. The continued stringency of the money market is a source of considerable com plaint, and Is beginning to hamper trading to some extent. The demand in the jobbing trades has fallen off steadily, and there are fewer Signs Of activity in any of the departments. The demand for groceries keeps uo steadily, and there was a good business doing; in provisions it was very dull, as also in drv goods. In hardware there was a fair trade going on. The lumber trade is also making good progress, and there is a good movement iu building materials. In all other branches there is about the usual amount of trade for the seasoD. Collections are again slacking up. ./he security market is again stagnant, owing to tight money. The following resume of the week's business will show the tone and the latest dosing quotations of the different mar kets to day: Naval Stores. —The market for spirits tur pentine was quiet and firm at the opening of the week, and regulars sold up to , but gradua lv became weaker under heavy receipts and steadily fell off until, at the close to day, it was reported firm at 34J4c. There was a fairly steady inquiry, though rather indifferent, but on the daily decline in prices buyers accepted offerings pretty freely and fully 4.00D casks changed hands dur ing the week. Rosin—The market was some what steadier at a slight decline of 5c for strained to good strained and the extreme pale grades. There was a fair demand, which was met quite free!.', and there was a good business doing. The total sales for the week will ap proximate 14,'.00 barrels. In another col umn will be found a weekly comparative table of receipts and exports from April 1 to date, and for a like period last year, showing the stock on hand and on shipboard not cleared, together with the official closing quotations. t'ottos.— I The market during last week was rather dull, and the offering stock too limited for anv heavy trading. The demand was quite slow, although all offerings were steadily taken. Most holders, however, were not dis posed to force business, and iu con sequence the current quotations were well maintained. The receipts at the ports as well as the supply at ini erior t owus are unprecedentedly light, which serves to hold up vain -s in controll ing markets quite steadily. The total sales for the week were 665 bales, at the following spot quotatiors of the cotton exchange: Good middling llAti Middling 119s Low middling 11% Good ordinary 1014 Sea Island.— The receipts for the week up to 4 o’clock p. m., as report dby factors, were 21 bags, and the sales for the same time were 90 hags. Ti e exports were 232 bags, all to Liver pool. The market was comparatively dull and prices were unchanged, with the exception of extra line to choice, which sold at 21c. The market Is pretty well cleaned up of stock in first hands, and the business well over for the balance of the season. The above sales were on the basis of quotations; Good stapled seedy cotton 21 H@22!4 Good medium HI Hi Medium fine 22 Fine J.. 23 Extra fine to choice 24 The receipts of cotton at this pert from all sources the pas.t week were 1.261 bales of up land and 21 hales sea island, against 378 hales of upland and 2 bales sea island last vear. The particulars of the receipts have been as follows: Per Central railroad. 1,127 bales up land; per Savannah, Florida and Western rail way, ’Bl bales upland and 21 bales sea island; per Savannah river steamers 4 bales upland; per Charleston and Savannah railway. 1 bales upland, per Darien and Altamaha steam ers 1 bale upland. The exports for the week were 1.893 bales or upland and 232 bales of sea island, moving as follows: To New York. 1,064 biles upland and 332 bales sea island; to Boston, 816 bales upland; to Pnila lelpbla, 13 bales upland. The stock on band to-day was 10,483 bales upland and 215 bales sea island, against 5,403 bales upland and 1,028 bales sea island last year. Rice. —The market was quiet and very steady during the week. There was a good Inquiry throughout, and pretty much all the stock of clean in the mii s was absorbed, both for Charleston and local account. The small stock now remaining is barely sufficient for the home trade, and as the stock is strongly hel lit is believed that there will be no diffi culty in maintaini g present values. The total sales for the week were fully 1,700 barrels, at about the following quotations. Small job lots are held at )fc®)4c. higher.

Ihe stock market presented about the same amount of business to-day as yesterday, but the reactionary temper was replaced by a more confl lent feeling, notwithstanding the tact lint nrofos ionals and traiers were still working for a further reaction. There was great irregularity in the market, however, and a portion of tne list was strong, while another portion was de cidedly weak. and the course of prices was sub je :ted to sudden ad sharp changes through out. The general verdicL upon the ope atm.is of the past few days is that the market has shown remarkable staying powers, nnd that it is booked for further material advance in near futures. To-day there were also continued realizations, which, with the aid of tue hammer ing of bears and lack of support in a few of the most prominent stocks, were sufficient to keep the market in an unsettled arid variable condi tion throughout the day-. Toe high rat :s ex acted for monty also caused many s -iling or ders iutiie afternoon, although tbev did not go as nigh as yesterday, and loans made to-day run till Monday. Toere is reason to bslieve. 110 sever, that the high rates of the last few days have begun toattract finds to thticenter, aud as Friday is usually the day of the highest rates tor money, they will in all probtbility be lower next wee c. The great b l ying power to day was foreigners, who s nt liberal orders in all ot their favorites, with the exception of Louisville and Nashville, and though the pres sure to sell at tli" opening was severe, higher prices resulted from an excellent demand. Union Pacific was the feature of other dealings, aud it advanced nearly 1% percent., the tin provement being accompankd by rumors of new developments which will affect both Union Pacific and Central Pacific, and the general opinion was that the new issue of bonds 10 take the place of tiie government loan at a lower rate of interest would be the schema. Oregon Transcontinental continued Its upward move ment. and buying in New England was attri buted to rumors of changes iu management and new alliances. Atchison was spec.ally weak iu early dealings, and Chicago Gas continued to d-cline. being apparently without support. Coal stoc s were quiet, with the exception of Reading, and ail were firm, though Delaware and Hudson lost some of its recent advance, and is the only stock which shows any material loss to-night. The buying demand fell away after the opening, and ira Ipts again got prices down in same cases below those of the opening, but a firmer t >ne afterwa ds prevailed, and too best prices were r ached toward noon. Money rates then encouraged bears, and again prices receded, but money was offered at 5 per cent, in the last hour, and some improvement was made, t..e market finally closing active and firm, generally at smart fractional gains over last nignt s figures. The sales of listed stocks were 451.000 shares; unlisted. 120.0 X) snares. The following are the closing quotations: Ala class A, 2 ta 1.106-j NO Pa’ficlstmort 95?4 Ala.c.ass B, 8... 110 N. Y.

CniCAQO, May )6.—Bad crop news was again rec qved plentifully from various quarters, and infused life and animation into the wlieit inar k t. Speculative trading was large and more or less excitement existe i at times, aud prices averaging higher all around Even deferred futures were more strongly affected. July ivas about the same as ycsterda. 's closing, and held s’eady for awhile; then it started up.w ith prices advancing 2c, eased off slightly, and closed about l%c higher than yesterday. August d-- livery closed !‘tf|o and Kepteitilier delivery 2)jc higher t nan yesterday. The feeling throughput the session was very nervous, and short interest covered freely. Unfavorable news was received from pretty near art directions. There were, however, many doubters ot the news which came to hand, and reports were somewhat con flicting. Tnere was good t tiding in corn, prlc -s fluctuating frequently within %c range.' Tne fee ing was a little unsettled The market opened weak, with tree selling by a prominent local t rader, which ha 1 a very and 'pressln ; effect, but prices reacted later and advanced %c. The market opened a shade under the closing prices of yesterday, was easy for a time, became stronger, selling up %c. reacted some, ruled steady, and closed )4.q;ksc better thau yester day. There was an excited market in oa.s early in the day, inter, st for a time being cen tered in May delivery. Prices were advanced 2c from yester lay’s closing and sold to 29 dc; they then reeo led %c, n ml the market, closed steady at a net gain ot l%c over yesterday’s close. Trading in pork was only moderate and the feeling was weak. Prices declined 30@35c and the market closed quiet at medium figures. A light trade was reported in lard an l prices were without material alteration. Trading in short ribs was quite active. A local operator was credited with purchase* of about 4,000,0 iO bar rels, tue bulk of which were so and by prominent speculator' anl a lar/e packing firm. Prices average about 2%c, higher.
