WEEKLY REPORT.
OFFICE MORNING NEWS, I
Savannah. Ga.. May 23, 199!. I
GENERAL Rem arks —Business in the general
larket during last week was of an encourag
tg nature, but trade, generally speaking, was
0 t very active. There were very few buyers
oticed during the week in jobbing circles,
rbile orders from out of town were quite con
ervative, and were confined principally to
ctua l necessities. There is, however, no
ttempt male on the part of
holesale jobbers to force trade. The evident
autiousness displayed among buyers and sell
rs seems to give a more assuring tone all
round. The distribution from first hands was
u ite steady and satisfactory, being in pretty
U ll volume for this time of the year, although
iot sny larger than it has been comparatively
nr the past few weeks. The money situation
nproves. but slowly, as, while there was
ound more money offering, the demand con
inues very heavy, as well as steady, so that
nwer rates are out of the question. Neverthe-
P sß. the undertone indicates increasing confl
lence in the general outlook. Collections were
air, but do not increase to any important ex
eat. The security market continues dull,
icept that Central railroad stock was
Irmer and advanced steadily. There were
nmparatively few changes in values,and prices
s a rule were steady, although in a few of the
eailDg staples they were in buyers’ favor. The
~por;s from the crops are reasonably good.
Ithough the weather last week was rather cool
or cotton. The following resume of the
week's business will show the tone and the
latest closing quotations of the different mark
ets to-day:
Naval Stores—Bpirits turpentine was quiet
In the early part of the week, and prices sold
off Vic, but later on became steadier and touched
35.V4C for regulars. The offerings were moder
ate, but all the stock to be bad was readily
al orbed, owing to the steady de
mand prevailing, and the outward
movement was fair. The total sales for
the week were fully 6,500 casks. Rosin—The
market for the better grades was quite firm at
the quotations, with a good steady inquiry.
Strained to good strained, however, remained
dull and neglected, while prices were easier and
lower. The sales for the week were probably
8.500 barrels. In another column will be found
a comparative table of receipts and ex
ports for the week and for a like pe
riod last year, showing the stock on hand
an! on shipboard not cleared, together with
Ine official closing quotations.
Cotton—There was a good, steady demand
during (he week, with pretty full offerings.
The market, however, ruled quiet and feature
less, except that the buying during the week
was largely for foreign account. The stock In
first hands continues on a liberal scale, but is
well held, and holders only seek business at full
current quotations. The total sales during the
week were 2,375 bales. On ’Change at the
regular midday call, at 1 p. m., the mar
ket was bulletined steady at the following
official spot quotations of the Cotton Exchange:
Good middling 914
Middling 8 3-16
Low middling 7 9-16
Good ordinary 7
Ordinary 6ts
Sea Islands —The receipts by factors for the
week up to 4p. m. were 61 bags. The exports
were 69 bags, of which 21 bags were to Liver
pool and 38 bags to Havre The total sales
were only 8 bags. The market was dull through
out the week, and more or less nominal. Hold
ers were quite firm in their views, aud asked full
quotations for the better qualities.

indifference of buyers prevented any advance
in quotations. The total sales for the week
were about 400 barrels. The following are the

In the stock market to-day professionals
still had the making of prices in their hands,
the public and larger operators holding aloof,
with no immediate prospect of resuming their
Interest in the market for some time to come.
There was only one feature of special import
ance in trading of the day, and that was selling
ot Louisville and Nashville, w iica wasaltribu
ted to ordeis from London. This theory, how
ever. does not meet with general acceptance.
Tne drive at Louisville and Nashville reiultel
in a loss of over 2 per cent., but while the en
tire list sympathized with the decline, in no
case was tne movement for more than a small
fraction, even in St. Paul, which resumed its
old position as leader in point of activity. Out
side of the two stocks mentioned, however,
there was no animation In the market for more
than a few minutes at a time. Nearly $3,001,000
in gold was taken to go out on to-morrow’s
steamer, which was a help to the bearish opera
tionsof the trading element, but ttie impress on
t lat this week marks the culmination of the
movement in gold sustains the confidence of
the holders and prevent liquidation from aiding
in the downward movein-nt in stocks. The
opening was weak at only small tractions lower
than the closing figures of last evening, but the
downward movement inaugurated at the open
ing was continu and with bin, slight interruption
for the greater portion of the day. Specialties
suffered, and Pacific Mall and Missouri Pacific
were weak all the way out. Industrials, repre
sented bv Sugar, were also specially wean, but
fluctuations in the rest of the list were confined
to the ginal est fractions; whiie dealings were
devoid of feature of any kind. Corering of
shorts, put out earlier In the week, caused *
fractional rally, after the lowest prices of tne
week had been touched in most of the ac*ive
stocks. Market Anally closed dull but steady
to firm at improvements, leaving most of the
stocks at fractions below last evening. The
sales were 155,000 shares of listed and 14.000
shares of unlisted.

The Sun's oottou review sevs: "Futures
opened lower and funner declined, closing
quiet and steady at 6@7 points decline from
yesterday’s closing prices. The bulls at Liver
pool seem to have let go with both hands this
morning, and many of our bulls showed signs
of discouragement. Hence tbe decline that
took place. It will be noticed that the decline
was greater In the winter months than in sum
mar months, whereas Tor some time p*st the
strength of the market has been tn distant op

Chicago. May 29—As this was the last busi
ness day of tbe month, and as traders were not
inclined to extend tbelr lines of open accounts
to be carried over until Tuesday, tbe day’s
business was largely in tbe nature of a "scalp.”
In addition to this state of affairs reprermta
tives of New York bouses and some local deal
ers provided themse'vee with “calls’’ in wheat
last night at $1 01*$@1 02, and set out at the
opening this morning to hoist the market to the
“call price.'’ The stampede of small shorts
which they started carried July from $1 00*$ at
tbe start to $1 01%. From $1 01 up sales were
greater than the demand from frightened shorts
could absorb. The result was that tbe attempt
to get tbe market Pi call limits was a fai ure.
Tbe heavy weight bears soon saw through the
game, and thereafter to the Close sold freely
whenever It rallied. July sold off to $1 00%,
then rallied to $1 (Xj%. broke to 90*$c, and, after
a few feeble rallies, to SIOO%. or thereabouts,
and hung very clone to $1 00 Tbe news sent in
early was calculated to advance prloes, but Us
effect was soon lost Near the close arithme
ticians figured it out that there would be a
large decrease In the visible supply an l this
sent tbe price up to $1 00%. Tbe trade in corn
was largely local, and as in wheat there was a
tendency toward evening up the trades. Tbe
conaequeno* was a dull market during most of
ttie session, with narrow fluctuations July
