Savannah. Ga.. Oct. 27, 1893. f
General Remarks.
The condition ot the general market as a <
h , llc was fairly satisfactory. The Hue of i
, r3 ,1.' has continued good in all branches, 1
■';!. but one or two exceptions. There was
tb , I>n al activity and animation displayed
im „ n g jobbers that is experienced at this
, iii,. of the year, and the distribution has
b ,., ,i pretty full, both through local channels ;
a _ „,,il as for outward shipment. The retail I
paih however, has been comparatively quiet
on account of the general warm weather
;i has prevailed for th pr*t -.rook. The
merchants are anxious for the cold season to
rt ve trade in their lines. The wholesale
tru.te experiences evidences of increased con
r'.lcm e as the fall business progresses, and
tl,, >ettu ment of the discussion on the silver
tall draws to a close. The clearing house re
turns show up about the same as last year,
being less than last week on account of the
null business in cotton at the closing week
0 < tin'month. There has been nothing in the
way of special new features, except that the
course of the cotton market has been erratic
and disappointing from the fact that prices
jjave slumped considerably during the week,
and the local demand fell off to some extent.
The naval stores market has been on a
boom, and business has l>een good throughout
the week until to-day when prices in spirits
turpentine slumped back 1 cent per gallon.
The foreign exchange market was rather
weak. The demand for groceries continues
large, and there was a very satisfactory busi
ness doing through the week. Other branches
of business still hold about the same,
with an increased tendency. Collections
continue in pretty fair volume. The
following lesume of the week's busi
ness will show the tone and the latest quota
tions of the different markets at the close to
day

26's cents for regulars and steadily advanced

ther decline to-day to 27 cents. The receipts
of the week were all sold at the prevailing
prices.

ring the week, and there was a good demand

Cotton.
The week has been a quiet one in the local
market. The iuauiry has been litfht and the
prices have steadily declined without any i>er
ceptible change n the situation until yesterday
and to-day, when the sales increased some
what. The entire sales of the week were
8.214 bales. The relation of supply und de
mand as rejected upon the present position
is not encouraging, and the market In the
controlling centers lacking speculative sup
port. succumbed. Jt may be added, however,
that there is lonsiderable fairly confident
bull talk yet to be heard, based upon an as
sumption* that present liberal receipts are
simply a temporary tlurry. which cannot hold
long and will be followed oy indications of
crop injury by the late frost that mu>t modify
maximum estimates, and there is a great
deal of faith in the reviving influence of the
repeal of the silver law now accepted as a
foregone conclusion.
The following were the official quotat ions at
the Cotton Exchange at the closing of the mar

on the stock exchange to day was much less
than for the past three days, but the specula
tion was steadier and none the less strong.
At tho opening a higher range of quotations
was established, but the market met with
some selling orders at the outset, which
caused a reaction in which only part of the
improvement was lost.“Towar,ls the close a
sharp purchasing movement was developed,
which caused a recovery, and the final sales
were at an advance over yesterday's closing

and extending to 6 percent, in the specialties.

New York. Oct. 27. —Riordan & Cos. say of
cotton: The first news from Liverpool this
morning was a loss of more than 8-61, and our
opening was a slight decline. January selling
on tho call at s.osc. but. before the call had
ended, the decline had changed to an im
provement. There was brisk short covering
upon piedlctlona of cold weather in Texas,
and January advanced to 8.17 c. Hut there
was more cotton offered at that price than
the bulls cared to take, and the
market became easier. The port
receipts for the week ran far
In excess of nil estimates. being
more than 7,000 bales ahead of Ihose of the
corresponding week last season, while the
receipts forthe week at interior towns showed
an excess of about 25.11X1 bait's, as compared
with last season. This heavy movement dis
couraged the hulls, and January reacted to
s ite, and during most of the afternoon con
tinned dull and dopressod. In the last half
hour there was a spell of active buying on
southern orders and the close was steady,
with 8.15 c bid for January. It may be that we
shall have higher prices later In the
season. But the troublo is that there
are too many people wailing for the good timo
coming, most of them having more enthu
siasm than margins, and until receipts shall
show a sharp falling off. spinners both here
and abroad are likely to take a sanguine vtew
of the size of the crop nnd buy supplies only
from hand to mouth, In the hope of a lower
market later on. Wo fear that we have .vet to
sec tho lowest point of the present decline."

Chicago, Oct. 27.-The biggest market of
the month in wheat was during the last hour
of the session today There are surmises
it is due to guesses that voting would begin
this afternoon in the Senate Rumors were
also that northwest receipts have begun to
fall off. Wheat closed strong at an advance
for the day of %c. Trading in corn was light.
The market was Influenced chiefly by the
flrmness in wheat. Provisions started rather
weak at some decline from yesterday's
closing, on a-counl of the hog receipts having
overrun the estimates by 4,000 head. They
recovered on the receipt of a few scattering
buying orders and In sympathy with the firm
nes of the grain markets The lasi bulge In
wheat was taken advantage of to load some
oarlv purchases and the dosing prices were
not quite tho highest of the day. Compared
