Sept. 4, 189!. 4 General Remarks—There is no material change to note in the condition of the general arket. The demand, however, is slowly in creasing in the jobbing trades . Orders are ar r vine freely, but are not as heavy as a year ago. The season, however, is considered not to have opened up fully yet; some littie improvement j/ looked for the coming week. The deposition of buyers generally is to delay placing orders, and those coming to hand are pot as full as they might be. This course is rather appreciated by the jobbers, especially, in vje w of the fact that collections are so slow and nsatisfactory.and from the further fact t hat the outlook for this section is not very good, owing to the damages sustained by the cotton crop, which are deemed to be pretty considerable. This however, has had the effect of stiffening the price, and a substantial advance was obtained during the week. Thespecial features of the week was the firmness in values, especially the advance made in provisions. The a Hiand in the grocery trade was steady, and tbere was some little activity in dry eoois. In hardware there was a steady, progressive trade doing. The security market was strengthened somewhat by the outlook for a better cotton movement: there was, however, no activity. The freight market is slow, especially for lumber vessels, and rates weak. Ti a demand for money from the interior is in creasing, and there is a tendency toward stringency. The following resume of the week's business will show the tone and the latest closing quotations of the different mar kets to day. Naval Stores—The market for spirits tur pentine was fairly firm through the week, and 5u ing the first half regulars sold steadily at 35c. but toward the close it became quieter and sold off He, owing to tne large receipts, fnere was a fairly steady inquiry and about 6,500 casks were disposed of during the week. The market closed to day steady at 34%c for regulars Rosin— Tee market was Arm during the week for pretty much all grades except the medium pale grades, wnich declined 6c. There was steady inquiry, while holders were offering freely, resulting in a good business for the week, the sales being about 14,000 barrels. In another column will be found a comparative table of receipts and ex ports 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—TUe smallness of receipts at the ports and interior, as well as the slowness of the crop movement and the continuance of un favorable reports from plantations, have been the potent factors in stiffening up values Spots were quite firm, and advanced %Q for the g rod grades and 3-16 cin the lower There was a good, steady demand lor good cottons and factors were fret sellers, though at full asking prices. There was not a very heavy offering stock, but the daily receipts were absorbed os they were offered. There seems to be no doubt of the heavy damages to the plant in and around this i-ect on by rains and worms. The sales for the week were 8,850 bales. The following are the official closing spot quotations of the Cotton Exchange: Middling fair 8% Good middling 8^ Middling BV6 Low middling 1% Good ordinary 8% Ordinary \ G 8m Wands—The receipts for the week up to 4 p in. as reported to factors were 24 bags.

There were 1,250 bushels of the new crop received here on Thursday, which will be milled out as soon as practicable. The samples show up an excellent grain, and if the whole crop keeps on a par with them it will be a very satisfactory season.

This market opened lower, and sold down fully 10 points, in tho face of a much better report from Liverpool. The explanation was to the effect that the cold wave from the northwest was not lisely to reach the cotton belt with an effective severity was, in fact, already succeeded by a hot wave which would be felt earlv next week. Also there was naturally some selling to realize, and under these influences prices gave wav, and January sold at 9 15c. Then etuis renewed manipulation on the part of the bulls, favored by smaller receipts at the ports and interior towns and tho timidity of the bears, who have been punished quite severely of lam, .January rose to 9 30c. but in tle last hours the bulls hauled oil, and two or three leading bears wore encouraged to make a pert attack upon values.

Chicao j, Sipt. 4.—omy a moderate business was transacted in wheat to-day, and while prices were subject to num*rous fluctuations changes were within a smaller rangetoan usual. Tne market was governed a good deal by spec ulative operations. Wheat showed little strength around the opening, influenced chiefly by the fact that cables quited Liverpool 64,1 higher on futures. Them was some good buying at the start, jiarticularly by local professiona‘B arid partly on outside ac count First trading in December was around $1 01(77,1 01%, the market gelling little strength Irom tiie excitement wnicn ruled in tho pro vision pit. But the demand soon slackened and New York turning sharply to the selling side, that market and the northwest bring weak, there was an Irregular decline to $10.1%. But the decline reached a good many buying orders, and the rumor gaming currency that Germany was to remove port of the duties on Aiaeiiian grain, tbereaas something of a rally, liecembar reacting to slOl. There was a decline to $1 01% *t noon. The market continued weak, dechn.uk to $1 00%. but ralllA near the close and closed $1 01. Corn was lower owing to the fact that tbe anticipated frost did ooi ma teriaiue. There was a light one at Des .Moines, too light, otherwise theta was no appearance of one in the corn belt As tho market was bulled yesterday on dancer of frost, the failure of the prediction knocked out the prop und a decline followed. October opened atJC 59®59!<c, but broke *:->atily to 58t,c. Then there was a gradual hardening, owing to this strength in provisions and a large demand from shorts and a reaction to 59L,c: eased off and held for a time around 5944 c. then sold up sharply to 601*0. The clique was said to have sold freely on the advance After mtontb re was a break to 39Vc a reaction to fiOVsc, The market bel 1 around 60c for soma time, but Anally weakened, and closed at 58540 The ad van or to MLjo was on a scare about manipula tion and indednite ru uors of frost.
