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. '
Green teas are becoming stronger , ns the
disposition to pick up the "outside" lots has
pretty wall reduced the unconcontrated sup

Saturday , March 10 , 183 ! ) .
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.
About nil the cattle offered In the market
found n buyer before the close , but the do-
maud was not very extensive , and the pack
ers especially did not appear to care
ftfr many cattlo. The quality of the
caltlo was very good nud there was nt least
one bunch of better and heavier cattle than
has been hero before this week , which oold

v/oro light , und there \vcro no very good
cows on salo. The trade in feeders was lim
ited mostly to the sulo of u few odds and
ends.
The receipts were light and there were not
hogs cnouch in the yards to make very much
of u market , but wuat there were sold ut
prices which would uvnrago n little stronger
than the general market yesterday. The

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.

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.

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. Activity
Und a slight return of strength after 11
o'clock caused some progress all through the
list , with grangers to the front. The total
sales for the day were lOS WJ.

CHICAGO , March 0. [ 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

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
