TIIE CONDITION OF TRADE , * _ The Money Market Continues Very Easy. * BORROWERS GET GOOD RATES. Trust nnd Investment Companies Find Difficulty In Placing Tliclr Funds General Business Still Improving. The Ijocnl Outlook. OTho money market continues very cosy , nnd bankers report an abundance of funds on hand with which to meet all legitimate wants. Trust nnd investment companies Ilnd difficulty In placing their funds and rates and upon n oasis of security entirely satis factory , the competition In their line being so great ns to enable borrowers to obtain terms better than they should have if thor oughly conservative methods prevailed. Ex change Is steady nt the usual rate of $1 per 1,000 premium. General trade continues to Improve , nnd wb.Uo the volume of business is not entirely satisfactory , lobbcrs generally nro feeling cheerful , nnd when they ; coiuo to compare footings are ready to admit that the totals to date nro equal to , if not in excess of those of 1S8S , nnd the indications nro plain that the sprlntt busi ness will bo much larger than WAS thought possible six weeks sinco. Collections nro fair , though not so good ns they should bo , nnd a great many country traders uro bc- h Ind In settlements to date , but there have been fowcr failures , and with bright , settled weather the outlook In this respect will , it is thought , materially Improve. City trade is In pretty good shape all around nnd an average business is doing. Prices nro , ns a rule , steady with an ad vancing tendency in most lines. Sugars are excited and refiners uro limiting their brok ers' actions and accepting oroors only sub ject to confirmation. Standard granulated is nearly lo per pound higher than a week sinco. Coffees , dried fruits , oils and green teas arc very steady , whllo flour is lower , in sympathy with wheat. Lumber , hardwire and building material , us a class , is moving under an active demand. Dry goods are In gnod demand for all varieties of spring goods nnd prices are very firm at quotations. A statement of the money circulation of the United States on the 1st of the present month , issued by the treasury department , gives the atrprogato ns $1,404,200,000 , .thus showing n contraction of $4,000,000 during the month of February , but an expansion of $33,000,000 ns compared with one year ago. The gold coin and bullion in the treasury amounts to $320480,014 ; silver dollars and bullion. $20,791,0s7 ; legal tenders , 814,430- 015 ; gold certificates in circulation , $128,895- 010 : silver certificates in circulation , $217- 800.459 ; currency certificates , f 15,920,000. The Nebraska state farmers' nllianco esti mates the amount of farm mortgages in that state ns $150,000,000. which at 7 per cent drains the state to the extent of $10,500,000 per annum. According to statistics compiled by the de partment of agriculture , the number of hogs in the United States in January last was 50- , 801,502 , against 44,340,525 in the same mouth last year , and 44,012,830 atn similar time in 1887. lu the twelve western packing states Ohio , Indiana. Illinois , Iowa , Missouri , Kansas , Nebraska , Minnesota , Wisconsin , Michigan , Kentucky and Tennessee the sister states in the number of hogs reported. Next to Iowa comes Illinois with 5,275.000 , and'thcn Missouri , Ohio and Kansas. Eight of the twelve * western packing states re turn over 2.000,000 hogs , nnd fifteen states of the union over lt)00,000 ) each. It is rumored thut the sugar trust is con sidering the policy of forcingn sharp ad varce in prices for spot goods until the Sprcckcls refinery at Philadelphia is opened. The two leading features of the statistical situation arc , first ; the reduction in the stock of raw sugar in importers' hands , and second , the very slow marketing of Cuban sugar. It is stated that the stocKs of raw sugar are fully 35,000 tons less than at this time last year , while the crop of Cuba is fully 100,000 tons less than the previous crop. Moreover , the crop of the British. West Indies is consider ably short of last year , and no known crop is any larger than last yeav , excepting that of the Philippine islands , which may show a moderate excess compared with last year. The imports into this country since January 1 from Cuba have only been 40,000 tons , us against 79,038 tons last your , a difference of 3J.U30 tons. There is a deficiency of about 40,000 tons in the Louisiana crop , and this and the natural Increase in the consumption will cause an increased consumption of for eign raw sugar of about 10 per cent. Coffee is hold firmly on account of the bad crop prospect. Present supplies are large , however , the visible supply at the American seaboard nnd afloat for our shores embrac ing 479,721 baps of Uio and Santos coffees , against 40JSOUbags a year ago. There are ! ! 90,000 bags at Uio do Janeiro and 252,000 bags at Santos. At Havre the coffee supply roaches 455,000 bags , of which 2 0,000 bags are Brazilian. The official figures of the movement of the world for eight months ending March 1 , 1889. show the total visible supply to 3,250,953 oags , against 3,077,429 bags February 1 , 1889 , an increase of 173,524 bags. Compared with March 1 , 1883 , the supply is 300,001) ) bags more. Compared with March 1 , 1837 , the suppVis now 905,000 bags less. The consumption of the world for eight months to March 1 , 1839 , was 0,239,814 > bags , ugaiiibt 4,905,293 for thn same period of ISST-bS , and ( ! , G9 ,812 for the same period of Dried fruits arc doing better nnd prices are stroneer. California line halved peaches show a decided "improvement und are ad vancing ; as they are not so plentiful as was first supposed. Raspberries are in good de mand at firm prices. Blackberries are soil ing in very large quantities at the prices now offered. Cherries are also improving.

The majority of the salesmen were looking for liucr.il receipts and nn easier market , and for that very reason some were Inclined to think thut the market was in reality easier , but upon the whole there was hardly any quotable change , and what cattle changed hands went at about steady prices.

CHICAGO PIIODUOE MARKET. CHICAGO , March 10. [ Special Tclcsrrnm to THE BnB.1 This was the day wheat should Imvo sold off. Tim storms which have been breeding for u week or ton days Imvo invari ably dissipated into thin nlr before reaching the winter wheat belt , nnd the weather is now ns balmy and beautiful as it has been nt nny time yet. The speculative sentiment everywhere is bearish , and the whole world Is impatient to soil everything that grows. The bearish Influences seem to bo culminat ing , and to-day nobody could bo found who had nny bull news or bull views to comniunl- nte. Oh , yes , at the opening somebody said Hradstrcct had estimated the world's surplus of wheat nt 109,000.000 bushels. That was supposed to bo a bullish item. Later when the figures were changed to 100,000,000 bushels the bears were Jubilant. Meantime , however , May wheat had climbed from U5 ; < o to OSc , and July wheat from S0 c to 87 ; c , nnd it only worked baclt K@f ° on l'10 ' L' ° l- lapse of the last forlorn hope of the bull posts. That , too , was thought most singular. It was thought to bo especially BO in view of the news that was circulated that Falrbank had sold out his wheat. This time there was not the faintest shadow of a doubt about it. The market should have broken all to pieces on this now * , but it didn't. Hutchinson's buying wns quoted as the reason why it didn't break , but Hutch himself was n liberal seller nt times. Altogether the situation wns badly mixed. The keenest people on the lloor nro by no means certain that the Fuirbank party Is out of wheat , that it was trying to get out of wheat , or thut it wants to bo out.of wheat. On the contrary , they have seen u Rood many little things which lead them to think that "tho deal" ' is more nearly tied up at this moment than it has been at any time since last fall. This , however , may bo mere conjecture on their part and is onlv printed as part of the floor gossip. After , the llrat advance in May -wheat to U3o it declined } c and then spurted up to QS c. Durlnir the last hour the price fluctuated between H7 @D7J o nnd the close was U7/e. The tone seemed weak nnd there appeared to bo plenty , of wheat for sale , but the market was not one to invite 'reckless shorting. July 'wheat opened at SOJ c and ranged nt 86 } < i& ST > fe , closing at 80@SGXc. The llnal figures show a l@U c gain in May and # @ ? o gain in July. The speculative transactions were quite up to the recent average. Hutehlnson's" buying and alleged selling of Falrbank's wheat were the principal features. The receipts of corn were heavier by 01 cars than were anticipated in the estimates made yesterday , nnd the bright dry weather is daily converting uioro corn from the lower grade into the contract grade. These were the principal causes of the doAvnward ten dency displayed by the market , but the lower outside markets and a rise in ocean freights were also contributory factors to the weak ness. The outgoings from the Atlantic ports were comparatively light nnd ship pers wore securing concessions on the prices of the lower grades. The lower prices reached in the speculative market were not productive of any activity. The outside orders were few , and the local operators have lost all interest in a market , showing such indifferent pros pects for any immediate prollt , whichever side of it they might take. The opening transactions showed an easier feeling to pre vail and there was not any substantial re covery during the day ; 35c was momen tarily reaened for May , but there was very little sold at that figure. The close was at a recovery of' c from the lowest price during the day , and was founder the ruling price on Friday. There was a fairly active speculative busi ness in oats to-pay and the feeling was stronger most of the session , but the full ad vance was not maintained. May opened at about 252 e but with good fair buying and the moderate offerings the price was gradually advanced to 25J o. At this point there was pretty fair selling , resulting in a decline of } { c , or to 2oc. It ruled quite steady at about this figure for some time , closing at about Zoo. No. 2 oats wore quiet , with sales of car Iotsat24@24c. In provisions , yesterday's quiet feeling was continued. Cash buyers took hold sparingly and in the line of speculation trading was slow and almost wholly professional. Out siders of all classes found the market unat tractive , and ns some weak-kneed holders were inclined to crowd sales , the movement was a little bearish. There was no serious depression , yet in pork the day closed with an average decline pf lOc , and in lard and short ribs of % c. CHICAGO JjlVE STOCK. .

Values are 15@20c lower than a week ago to-day. FINANCIAL. NEW YOUK , March 10. [ Special Telegram ' to THE BEn.1 STOCKS The s'tock market to day consisted of a flurry at the start , with prices off f to Jf per cent from last night , a slight rally toward noon and closing above the closing prices of Friday. The cheerful talk circulated so freely after hours yester day led many to believe that ever , if there should bo a Hurry and a break in prices early to-day , that it would bo the end of the pres ent depression. AVhilo the stocks generally aid not close at the bottom figures , there ap pears to be little to base hopes on tot any radical ( Change of sentiment. The same bearish feojmg prevailed with the trade. London cabled as reasons for selling specula tive sales on this side , the rate cutting , gold shipments and the feejlng In Paris. As af fecting trade , the acceptance of Chairman Walker docs not outweigh the fact that rates * nro again being cut and that roads es sential to the success of the association are not yet Included in the agreement. Good authority says the trallio return continues fairly ahead of last year , however , and the rest of the diftlculty Is tha dissatisfaction of the investors with the manner in which the corporations Imvo been managed. The most active stocks during the morning were Hi. 1'uul , Missouri Pacific , Heading und Burling ton , all of Which lost } { to % per cent early , but gained strength tha last hour mid ulo < > cd steady at Friday's figures , except Hurling- ton , which was > { per cent lower.

[ Special Telegram to Tun HEI : . ] The chief feAtures of the money market nro continued easiness In rates do * spite nn increased demand. The chief bor- o\vers nro merchants and manufacturers who are preparing for the spring trndo. Lumbermen nro also asking for moro fnvora than nt nny time in months , as they nro breaking up their logging camps and require considerable money to pay their men ami prepare for the season's business that Is before - fore them. There Is an Increasing supply ot nearly nil descriptions ot paper nt the banks and on the street , but no trouble is px- pcrlcnccd In placing It , owing to the liberal amount of money awaiting profitable Invest ment. Call loans wore freely made at 5 per cent nnd time loans nt 0 per cunt. The bulk ot the commercial paper afloat pays 0 per cent und some readily commands 7 per Cent. A liberal amount of money is being placed on real estate at 5 and 0 per cent. In many Instances there la moro disposition on Uio part of loaners to put their funds Into long investments nt low figures , where n sure return is promised , than to lot it out for short terms nt a slightly higher rate. Col lections are nil that can bo expected at this season nud n fairly healthy conditioned affairs exists in nearly all lines of business. Tlio eastern loan market is not particularly active , but a steady feeling exists. The market for Now York exchange was rather dull and unsettled , sales being made at n wide range. Sellers us a rule were not dis posed to accept the terms bid by buyers and ut limes it was diltlcult to make trades. Transactions were made at 2500c ( discount per $1,000 and closed at SOQOOc. Foreign ex change met with moro ddmand nnd during tlio early part of the week it was easier , rates declining i n o owing to the slightly in creased oITormgs of bills drawn tnostl against shipments of corn and 'provisions. Sixty days documentary bills on London solil nt1.8 lff4.85 nnd closed nt $4.S4y/ ( ,85. The falriy favorable weather has stimulated the jobbing trndo In nearly nil brunches , es pecially in the dry goods , clothing , millin ery nnd boot and shoo lines , most ot the lobbing houses having about all the orders they can conveniently provlda for. Hardware was nctlve. Sugars und coffees also sold more freely , und a steady feeling prevailed on staples of nil descrip tions. The Now York stock market whllo exhibiting increased activity was consider ably unsettled , the shurn advances being1 followed by declines that carried the stocks lower than before. St. Paul was the loading' feature , and during the latter part of the week prices were Irregular. The action of its directors in declaring n dividend of 2 per cent on preferred stock created surprise , as an impression existed that it had not been earned. The directors , however , eas ily overcame the difficulty by changing the year , making it end Juno 80 , instead of December 31 , aa heretofore. "The road earned 3 per cent the llrst half of 1888 , but hardly 1 per cent the last half , and is ex pected to earn 2 per cent the llrst half of tills year. London wa < > n liberal seller during tha most of the wcoic , but u buyer latter. Stocks that has loaned Hut in the road was called Iu on Thursday , and the pica advanced to l premium. This induced free buying , par ticularly by the shorts , and prices advanced 2J , but the outside ligurcs were not main tained. The news from London and Paris was emphatically bearish. In the coppsr stocks in Paris the liquidation was heavy und nt times thu feeling xvas panicky , nnd a largo shrinkage in values , re- bulled. Strenuous efforts were nmdo to bolster the market1 for such shares to allow the insiders to get out , but they were in the main unsuccessful , liud sharp depressions followed the advances. The unsettled feel ing abroad brought in free selling orders , for American securities in Now York. Thoae , coupled with a reduction , in the price of un- thracito coal , made the bears more cour ageous , and a free selling of tlio general list ensued , which established a lower ransc of prices , with exception of Pullman , which de clined 8 points , and Oregon Navigation 4 % points. The losses did not average ever i point. The bond market exhibited fair uo- tlvity , but no special changes occurred. The aggregate sales on the Now York stock exchange - change for the week wore 1,603,000 shares. With the weather rattier spring-like , there is noticeably n gradual imurovcment in nil departments of trade , llaports from the interior indicate that the farmers are pro gressing with their spring wont in some sec tions and making preparations in others. Some produce is being forwarded to the small stations , but the biilk'of the grain re ceived at the leading markets is being trans ferred from the interior elevators. Specula tive trading was nctlvo in tlio leading arti cles , attended with more than the usual fluctuations In prices. In fact it has been n sparring contest between the bull and boar interests , and the result was generally favor able to the latter in the grain markets und-to the former in provisions. The supplies ot grain have gradually decreased and there has been no material enlargement in the supplies of provisions. Opnr.uors appear to bo transferring their contracts ahead BOIIIO- what , July delivery attracting more atten tion both in grain and provisions. Advices from tlio forelirs markets Imvo not been particularly favorable to the long int'irc.stof tlm domestic markets nnd have to u great extent followed the course of the inafr- kots At Chicago. The shipments from hero have boon moderately largo nnd the rate cutting in freights from the far western points has enlarged the through movement nf grain to the seaboard. The approach of the opening of lake navigation has led to an improved inquire for vessels , but only a few engagements have been made. Cotiaideraulo money has been forwarded to the interior , which would indicate an nctlve business dur ing the spring months. Tlio crop projects uro favorable , both at homo and abroad , and spring .seeding is progressing In the west and southwest. The movement of live stock has been moderately free to all the leading west ern markets , especially of cattle and hogs. . . Packing operations are progressing < julto * actively , and returns for tlio west Hinco March 1 show an Increase of 13'J,000 hogs , compared with the etunis for the corresponding spending time in 18SH.
