WEEKLY REPORT.
OFFICE MORNING NEWS. I
Savannah. Ga.. May 22, 189!. *
General Remarks—The general market was
evoi4 of any interesting features during the
week. The demand was quiet at first
laods, and the distribution by jobbers was
joderate; in fact, there seemed to be less ac
jvity than for the previous week. As yet
herf> is no material change in the situs
ion. present or prospective. There is no posi
jre easing up of the money situation, although
ber was a little more offering, attracted by
he high rates of interest: still the demand is so
xeat that but little confidence is expressed as
0 the near future, and there is little expecta
ion of a lower rate for some time to come.
!b reports from the growing crops
ire taken on some improvement
n their tenor, owing to the more favorable
reather, but cotton is considerably backward.
I'alues as a rule were easier and there was a
Iteaiy decline in all of the food products. The
pool market is decidedly weak and declining
while hides have also sold oft )* cent. In
i*curities there was little doing, with a con
;inued weakness manifested in the securities
,f the Central system. In the grocery
Tade there seems to be less activity than
or some time back, atid the shipping move
nent was very moderate In dry goods there
,re no new features, and there will be little
loing for the next several weeks, or until the
[all styles are offered. In other departments
msiness was not more than fair, on the average.
Collections are quite slow. The following re
lume of the week’s business will show the
tone and the latest closing quotations of the
different markets to-day:
Naval Btores—There was a good, steady de
mand through the week for spirits turpentine,
and, while holders managed to maintain the
quotations, all attempts at an advance in the
current prices were strenuously resisted by buy
era Receipts were steadily offered, and a pretty
fair business was obtained. The total sales for
the week approximated 6,000 barrels. Rosin—The
market was quite firm during the week, espe
cially for the medium and pale grades, which
were advanced slightly. There was a good in
quiry, with only moderately fair offerings.
The total sales for the week were about
10,000 barrels. In another column will be found
s comparative table of receipts and ex
ports for the week and for a like pe
riod last year, showing the stock on hand
sad on shipboard not cleared, together with
tne official closing quotations.
Cotton—The market was very quiet during
the week, with but few features to interest
operators either way. There was an absence
of news from Liverpool in the early part of the
week, owing to the Whitsuntide holidays, and
the husi ess was almost wholly confined to
buying for northern mills, the demand for
which account is considered quite fair for this
time of the year. The stock is pretty full, but
is well held, and factors experienced no
difficulty in maintaining quotations. The total
sales for the week foot up 1,400 bales. On
’Change, at the regular call, at 1 p. m., the mar
ket was bulletined steady at the following
official spot quotations of the Cotton Exchange:
Good middling 9U
Middling 8 3-16
Low middling 7 9-16
Good ordinary 7
Ordinary 6)4
Seo Islands —The receipts by factors ror the
week up to 4 p. m. were 106 bags and 6 bags of
through cotton. The exports were 21S bags, of
which 36 bags were to Liverpool, 25 hags to
Havre, 100 bags to St. Petersburg and 57 bags to
northern mills. The total sales were 160 bags.
Tne market was quiet, though firm, at quota
tions The demand is still confined to the bet
ter grades, while the poorer qualities are neg
lected. The above sales were about on the fol
lowing basis:

Rice -The market was comparatively dull
during the week, but there was a fairly firm
undertone. There was only a light inquiry,
while the stock offering Is very small and is
pretty firmly held. There were some few pur
chases of foreign rice in New Orleans during
the week for local account. The total sales
of clean for the past week were about 550
barrels. The following are the official quo

The stock market displayed unexpected
activity and strength to-day, and the result of
the day's operations Is to Ipave almost every
thing materially higher than last evening. A
check was given to the upward movement in
the first hour by the further actual taking of
gold for export, and while trailers were fighting
tne rise with all the vim In their power, they
could do nothing more than give temporary
check to the upward movement. The west then
appeared in the market as buyer, and notwith
standing the adverse influences mentioned, an
other spurt was made In the early afternoon
which carried prices up rapidly and materially,
the net advance at the time being over 2 per
cent, in many of the leading shares. The iiri-
f movement was specially well distributed among
eading stocks, and while Bt. Paul maintained
its activity, others were equally as prominent
in the upward movement. New life was given
industrials, and both Cordage and Sugar rose
with the rest of the market, the former again
crossing 100. Coal stocks wore again strong,
and recovered not only their losses of yesier
day, but scored material gains as well. Tne
afternoon rise brought everything up to higher
figures than have been attained Tn many days,
and while there was the usual realization of
profits on the advance of the day in the lost
hour, it ma le only a slight impression upon
prices in the last hour. It made only a slight
impression upon prices, and even this was
neutralized before the close of business, which
was active and strong at the highest prices
reached. The first prices were in almost all
cases lowest and the last highest. The sales
were 343,000 shares of listed and 23,000 shares
of unlisted.

The Sun t cotton review says: “Futures
were slightly lower for this crop, and partially
1 point dearer for the next crop. It was to day
mainly a local ‘switching’ market. < iperators
were inclined to oarry forward tneir contracts,
and besides selling early months and buying
next, there was a long list of ‘exchanges' on
the blackboard. Other influences were tor the
moment ignored. Weather reports from the
south were generally favorable to crop pros
pects. The widening 01 the differences between
June, July and August shows that tue market
is distinctively ‘long.’ and the switching
process may go on for several days. Spot
cotton was dull.’*

Chicago, May 22.—The laci tliat the pre
dicted severe frosta In lowa and Wisconsin
did Dot appear last nigbt. and continued grow
ing rains tn the wheat belt developed a crop of
bar sentiment on the hoard of trade, car
ried down the price of July option l%u at the
clo.c, in comparison with final figures yester
day. July opened at $1 Pl®l 0194 against
$10194 at the close yesterday, with many bro
kers in possession of sei.ing orders. The raid
was bearish, and it was at work to drive the
market below “put’’ price. July broke early to
$10094. New York sent in a steady stream of
selling orders and the downward movement
was resumed and not stayed until 9294; was
reached, when it reacted, and then sola again
at 9994 c. This break induced bo much short
selling that the crowd was very easily fright
ened into buying its wheat back again, and
July improved to $1 0694 Selling at this price
was enough to break it back to $1 00. where it
closed. Corn was very weak, principally on
account of favorable crop news aud heavy re
ceipts of contract to-day. July started at 5594 c,
touched 5594 c. and tnen ao.d off to 6394 c at the
close, data sympathised cloaely with corn,
though the close was (4c above bottom price.
Provisions were not as weak relatively as
grains. There was a llttlj show of strength
early, hut, along with the oreak in grains, and
liberal receipts of hogs, ultimately weakened
with everything on the list. July pork shows a
ions compared with yesterday of 15c, lard sc,
