IT, 1891. f General Remarks—Tradlnß in the general begins to show some 6igns of enlarge ment. although the feeling manifested the pre , us week by most Jobbers remains about the but as the cotton season is so near at jja',’l. interior merchants are ordering goods ore freely. Transactions, however, are po t of a very encouraging character, and is littje in the outlook to betoken the low cost of cotton an i the ten > D ,*v to further [decline in that staple is ; factor in causing the feeling of uncer mn.ty and doubt in the minds of wholesale fibber*, especially In view of the fact that pother large crop is about to be marketed. c . dealers are not disposed to fill all orders ;! ru fo hand, while buyers are not showing Terv much spirit in their purchasing, tR ,j trading has beeu characterized by t )ac 6: of force. while extreme r;u *: ,usness seems to dominate all around.Pol jpcuor.s a e not very satisfactory, and are be aming to na a matter of serious complaint t rh tii-* wholesale trade, owing to the slowness which country merchants are adjusting o jj accounts. The money market continues close; there is an active demand, hut the high rates still prevail. The security mar |..r is at a stand and rates are nominal, owing to the lack of confidence caused jjv the fears ot inveators of meddlesome legislation. The freight market is quieter and raies c astwiae are easier, bat for naval stores tonnage is in fair request at steady rates. There vas some steadiness in values during the week, although in some of the leading staples they v . re nt strongly supported, and a substantial decline in grain is noted. The following resume of the we eks business will show the tone and the latest closing quotations of the different markets to-day : Naval Stores -The spirits turpentine market iras again irregular this week and prices were unsettled. Sellers managed to force prices up to 84J4c for regulars, but the marKet was with out strength, and under heavy receipts and ac cumulating stock they again sagged off, closing today steady at 33%c. There was lome steadiness to the demand, md a pretty fair business was accomplished. The total sales for the week were about 5,500 casks. Rosin—The market was flu'et during the week though fairly firm, and h iders had no difficulty in maintaining values. There was a good steady demand with pretty full offerings. About 12,000 barrels changed hands during the week. In another column will b* found a comparative table of receipts and ex orts for the week and for a like period last year, showing the stock on hand and on ship board not cleared, together with the official closing quotations. Cotton.—There was not a single encouraging feature about the spot market during ti>e week. There was comparatively little doing and the disposition of buyers was one of indecision, f.wing to the favorable bureau report, and the weak tendency manifested in controlling markets, and but for to-day’s business the total would have been of small proportions; recent transactions, however, were sufficient to re -1; ve the most pressing sellers, and stocks are well reduced. Still, withal this, the market closed to-day easy, although quotations are not quotably lower. The total sales were 395 bales for the week. The following are the official closing spot quotations of the Cotton Exchange: Good middiing B*4 Middling 7% Low middling 7 1-16 800 l ordinary 6% Ordinary 5% .'■ea Islands—' The receipts for the week up to 4 p.m., as reported by factors, were 14 bags. T .ere were no sales or exports during the week. The market ruled entirely nominal for lack of demand. The holders, however, ask quotations for the better qualities.

The stock market hesitated for some time to-day, but gradually gathered strength while broadening out considerably. Grangers and western stocks iu general, however, nionop > lized all interest in the market. Union Pacific was still less prominent in dealings to-day, and being firmly held less in the neighborhood of 35, the inference is that its prominence for the time being and its deterrent effect upon specu lation is over for the present. Louisville and Nashville was the leader during most of the day, and while there was considerably buying of it to cover shorts, London was lower, aud it was heavy to weak at first, though later re covering somewhat. London selling in this stock maybe more apparent than real, and the disposition in the street is to attribute its com parative weakness to the marketing of a por tion of the new stock, which is believed to be a ratherdifficult task to perform. Villard stocks to-day became prominent for strength, and Northern Pacific preferred scored a handsome gain for the day,notwithstanding that the state ment showed a loss in earnings One explana tion of the upward movement, however, is mado on the hypothesis that the company is buying stock with the proceeds of the laud sales. The opening was at irregular changes from last night’s prices, but notwithstanding selling for London account, the demand from shorts was sufficient with the new buying ap parent to turn the course of prices up, although Louisville and Nashville dropped per cent, from its last night s figures. The advance thereafter was slow but steady, and material improvement was made all al >ng the line, even Union Pacific joining the strong stocks late in the day. The rally in Louisville and Nashville was also sharp in the late trading, and it closed with a loss or only a small fraction. Market finally closed firm to strong at about the highest figures. The list is almost all higher, and while most of the advances are for small fractions, Northern Pacific preferred rose 2, Southern Pacific Lackawanna and Burlington and Quiney, 8t - Paul, Missouri Pacific and Ten nessee Coal each 1 per cent. The sales of listed stocks aggregated 205,000 shares; unlisted stocks 3,000 shares. • The following ware the closing quotations of the New York Stock Exchange: Aia. class A, 2t05.1094* N.O.Pa'flolst mort &3 Ala.olassß. 5a...105 N.

The early de cline was in response to a marked reduction in values at Liverpool, but there were some p >ints in the statistical posittou whioh made sellers very timid, and when room traders attempted to get back their cotton, they found very little offering, and to this fact the early recovery and subsequent advance were due.

Aug 14.—This was another wild and worrysorae day in the wheat pit on the Board of Trade The prices went up and down over a very wide range without any apparently sufficient cause, and iioth bulls and bears were alternately on the gridiron, though the advo - cates of higher prices had the best of the situa tion. and improved their opportueitiee to the extent of ultimately carrying price* to the point of UHc above t, closing figures yesterday, and the close was Ifac higher. The bulls’long-de layed prediction of dollar wheat was finally verified, and they hailed the big round figure with a mighty shout. This occurred close to the end of the session. The market was wildly unsettled at the opening, with the bull senti ment rampant. A nervous apprehensive feel ing [iervaded the crowd, and there were indefi nite rumors of trouble brewing abroad which might result in war, and cables brought news of strong and higher prices abroad, with the do mestic markets all n-rvons aud strong. The local shorts were thoroughly alarmed and bought frantically. Under these conditions tbo opening was fairly wild, and December sold at to 99c. all within two minutes from the first stroke of the opening bell, against 9545 c as the closing figure yesterday For a time the feeling was strong, but there came free selling against calls and liberal realising on long wheat, and then tbeie was a tag in the market. I .ater the New York clique was thought Pi be selling. This stampeded the local bulls, and there was ioi.iethiug of a race to see which party could unload first, and then there was an irregular and nervous drop to 9?V6c. The market reacted to 97440, and was comparatively steady aud quiet at 97)4®97Wc until the afternoon; then suddenly the crown was seined with a buying fever, and, amid the Wiliest excitement, the price was advanced to $1 00. It sagged to 994t,e, but closed strong at Corn was strong but unsettled, though not showing as much strength as wheat. Snorts were nervous over the advance in the wheat pit. but It was diffi cult to buy, owing to the scarcity of offerings September opened at 68640 to 59c and sold quickly to Then, on freer selling and a let up in the wheatboom.it fell to 58c, then rose to 58 t*c, but broke eventually to 57440, reacted to 68440 Late In the session when wheat went soaring, corn touched 90c, but closed at 5944 c Trade was on a moderate scale, aid there was little in the way of news to effect the price. Oats were steady to strong during the most of the lay, fluctuating within a range of 373 4 c to S'i-ic. Rye was still strong and ex cite 1, September s -fling to and closing at 96c Provisions were quiet out firm.
