the week covered by the
above statement will be given next Saturday. We cannot,
of course, furnish them to-day, bank clearings being made
up by the various clearing houses at noon on Saturday, and
hence in the above the last twenty-four hours of the week
have to be in all cases estimated.as we go to press Friday night.
We present below our usual detailed figures for the previous week, covering the returns for the period ending with Saturday noon, January 19, and the results
for the corresponding week in 1900, 1899 and 1898 are
also given.
In comparison with the preceding week
there is a decrease In the aggregate exchanges of one
hundred and seventy million dollars, the loss at New
York being one hundred and sixty-nine millions.
Contrasted with the week of 1900 the total for the
whole country shows a gain of 48 -3 per cent. Compared with the week of 1899 the current returns record
an increase of 19-8 per cent, and the excess over ISg*? is 78-3
per cent. Outside of New York the increase over 1900 is 12-8
per cent. The excess over 1899 reaches 13-5 per cent, and
making comparison with 1898 the gain is seen to be 39-7 p. o.

REPORTS OF TRUST COMPANIES IN NEW

THE INVESTORS' SUPPLEMENT.
The quarterly number of our Ikvestors' Supplement is issued today, and is sent to all our subscribers.
The Supplement contains editorial articles on
the following topics.

OIL FOR LOCOMOTIVE FUEL.
LIGHT CARS IN HEAVY TRAINS.
TELEPHONES IN TRAIN -DISPATCHING.

EXTENSION OF BLOCK-SIGNAL SYSTEM.

THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
The week will ever be memorable as the occasion of
the death of Great Britain's matchless Queen. However considered, she has had no equal. It was her
noble personal character that has secured the veneration of the whole world and made all human-kind a
sharer in the loss.
The London Times touches the
source of the power which seemed to inspire her every
public as well as private act. It says " we have to
thank the Queen for influence of the most potent
kind, consistently and vigorously used to enforce
high ideals of social and personal virtue, of religious
faith,

and

of Christian life."

This event, other than having imparted to business
circles a suppressed or hushed demeanor, has had no
influence on affairs. A temporary arrest in the declining tendency of the Stock Exchange market, with a
general though moderate recovery in prices, was a
feature in "Wall Street the early half of the week.
This turn in tendency was apparently an outcome of
the changed attitude of the iron and steel trade producers.
It will be remembered that the break in the
market the previous week was attributed in great part
to a reported disagreement and prospective controversy
between the largest manufacturers of those articles.
This week these same iron and steel kings who were
supposed only a few days previous to be full of fight
were reported to have awakened to the truth that
those industries could not be made to repeat the experience of a year ago, even if the chief 'producers
willed it, for prices are not high as they were then,
and besides there is stated to be too much business
in sight and many times too much in prospect.
Hence it was claimed that their ruffled feelings
had been smoothed down and that the surroundings
were principally conspicuous for the brotherly kindness that prevailed. Later in the week, notwithstanding the reported prevalence of this change in feeling
and in prospective action in those trades, the tendency of the stock market was downward again, but
on Friday renewed strength was shown.

The exports of gold which began last week and
have continued in larger volume this week, added to
the utter lack of influence this outflow is having on
our money market, illustrates the unhealthy character of the currency system which we at present
have in use. An outflow of gold at this time is in

The increase of course, as will be understood,
was the result of the extraordinary production of the
first six months of the year. The last six months
there was a marked falling off, the make of pig
iron in this half-year being only 6,146,673 tons, as
against 7,642,569 tons the first six months.
Had
the production of the first half been maintained, the

output for the year would have been over 15 million
tons.

On the full amount of stock the dividends
at 5 per cent on the preferred and 4 per cent on the

As a matter of fact, however, the

whole year, and the dividend payments actually called
for only $433,127.
Thus a large balance was left,
and the company contributed $75,000 to the Equipment Renewal Fund, spent $71,532 for additions and
betterments to mines and charged off $10,932 of
doubtful accounts.

There was no change in the official rates of discount
by any of the European banks last week. The open
market rates at the chief centres were generally easy.
The statement of the New York Associated Banks last
week disclosed some surprisingly striking features.
The loans increased by $22,841,000, to $830,873,400,
the specie was augmented by $11,495,300, to $184,652,800, the legal tenders were increased by $2,476,000,
to $73,050,600, and the deposits showed a gain of
$36,451,000, to $921,787,200. The surplus reserve was
$27;256,600, a gain of $4,858,550. The loans and the
deposits made a new high record, the previous maximum of the former having been $825,830,600 September 15 1900, while the highest deposits previously
recorded were $914,810,300 March 4 1899. The specie
was within $22,223,700 of the greatest on record,

which was $206,876,500 May 27 1899. Still another
notable feature was the unprecedented extent of the
gain in the items of loans and of deposits, while the
increase in specie has been only once exceeded, which
occasion was September 27 1890, when the week's gain
was $16,980,700 and the maximum then was $93,397,000.
With an increase of $22,841,000 in loans, which
was doubtless due to negotiations incident to the
deals in Pennsylvania Coal and in Central New Jersey,
and with a gain of $13,971,300 in cash, together $36,812,300,

the increase of $36,451,000 in

deposits

is

easily reconcilable.

The

which naturally causes surprise is the
almost unprecedented gain of $11,495,300 in specie,
this amount being so greatly in excess of preliminary
estimates.
In explanation of the gain of specie by
the banks, which has amounted to about $27,000,000

Generally speaking, all items of whatever nature
which are paid to the banks by the Treasury are
either directly or indirectly settled almost wholly in

gold, by reason of the fact that the Assistant Treasurer's balances at the Clearing riouse are so paid.

Still

another cause for the recent gains of specie by the banks
is that inland institutions ire shipping to New York
by mail comparatively large amounts of gold certificates of high denominations.
The mail, it may be
noted, is selected as the medium of transfer because
of the reduced cost as compared with shipments by
express. It would seem quite possible that while care

to explain last week's and recent previous week's large
movement of specie into the banks. The loss of $1,640,000 gold, through exports to Paris last week,
counted for only about one-third, the shipment having
been made on Thursday. This week's export of gold
and the remaining two-thirds of last week's shipments
will be partially offset in the bank statement of this
week by the receipts of $1,000,000 gold from San
Francisco, the arrival of which at that port from
Australia was noted in our last issue. The daily
applications for the exchange of fundable bonds for
the new 2 per cents have become so small that
Treasury officials are of the opinion that refunding is
practically at an end.
The total of the bonds thus
far received and exchanged at the Treasury is $445,835,150.

OUR FOREIGN TRADE IN

1900.

Remarkable though the figures of our foreign trade
were for the previous two calendar years, those for
1900 are still more so.
This statement is equally
true, whether applied to the total value of our merchandise exports, which have been large beyond precedent, or to the excess of merchandise exports over
merchandise imports, which is also without a parallel
in our foreign commerce.

and 1899 had been record periods, and it seemed unlikely at the time that the

be maintained, much less surpassed. And yet as a

On

account of the advance in the price of cotton the
and the weight given in Europe to
erroneous high crop estimates, European consumers
did not buy cotton on the usual scale in the closing
months of that year, but to a great extent deferred
supplying their wants. In the early part of 1900, as
a consequence, buying had to be increased to cover in
part the previous deficiency.
Again towards the

shipments were 8,169,680 bales. As compared with 1899, therefore, there was the double advantage arising from an increase in the volume of the
exports and a greatly advanced price. As the result
of the two together the value of the cotton exports
reached 314 million dollars in 1900, against only 191

when we

recall that prior to
1896 the exports had not even attained the one thou>
sand million mark. As contrasted with 1895, when
the amount was not quite 825 million dollars, the
gain has been 653 million dollars, or not far from 80
per cent which is certainly a striking improvement
in the short term of five years.
In the whole of this
term not one of the years has failed to show a larger
export total than the preceding year, though the
growth has been by two year periods that is to say,
the totals for two years would run about the same,
then be succeeded by much higher totals, which
would again run at about the same figure for two
successive years, then be succeeded by still higher
figures running another two years, and so on.
For
instance, in 1894 and 1895 the amount of the exports
was roughly 825 million dollars each year; in 1896
and 1897 the amounts were respectively 1,005 and
1,099 millions; in 1898 and 1899 there was an advance

to 1,255 and 1,275 millions; 1900, as already stated,
saw the total up to 1,478 millions.
Of course one important aid in the further addition
in 1900 was the advance and higher price maintained
for cotton, one of the most important of the leading
export staples. The reader need hardly be told that
higher prices in the great majority of articles and
commodities have been a factor in expanding values

Taking all items of iron and steel and their manufactures, export values in 1900 were about 130 million

One fact in the table above should not, however,

for State taxation of banks and trust companies were prepared at Albany, and they will probably be introduced in
both branches of the Legislature in a few days. The measure affecting trust companies imposes a tax of 1 per cent
upon the capital, surplus and undivided profits of these corporations. Another bill fixes an annual tax of 1 per cent
upon the value of each share of bank stock.whether State or
national. Such value of banking corporation stock, including that of trust companies, is to be ascertained by adding
together the capital, surplus and undivided profits, and
dividing the result by the number of shares of stock, thus
obtaining what is known as the book value of the stock.
Such estimate of value is to be provisionally made by the
Comptroller of the State from data furnished by the institutions on or about July 1 and submitted to the banking cor"
poration, so as to give opportunity for revision. The banks
and trust companies are to collect the tax from the owners of
the stock and pay the same into the State Treasury on or before
September 1 under penalty of personal liability for the tax
and also $100 per day for delay. Owners of stock in banks
awi banking corporations who are liable to tax under the
new law are made exempt from liability to taxation for
State purposes in the tax district in which such institution

London, Saturday, January 12, 1901.
The collapse of the London & Globe Finance Corporation
has for the moment completely disorganized the market for
West Australian mining shares, and throngh that h*9 had a
bad fcffect upon all other departments. The meeting of the

shareholders of the corporation was held on Wednesday, at
which Mr, Whitaker Wright, the Managing Director, stated
that he had practically concluded an arrangement which
woTild enable the company to be reorganized and continue
business; and he asked for an adjournment of the meeting
till Monday, which was at once agreed to.
Throughout the
city, however, strong doubts are entertained as to whether a
reorganization can in fact be carried out; and besides the
failure of as many as 20 members of the Stock Exchange has
caused heavy losses, the members being unable to meet
their liabilities through the inability of the London & Globe
to pay up its engagements, which has inflicted heavy losses
on others who have been able to weather the storm. The
failures, too, have caused general selling of stocks held by
the crippled houses; and that has extended beyond the
West Australian market.
For the moment, therefore, there is a gloomy feeling.
The set-back ia American securities has deepened the gloom;
and the unsatisfactory condition of the iron and steel trades
here at home and upon the Continent have added to the general uneasiness. Of course also the protraction of the war
in South Africa is making a very bad impression.
Consequently, at the fortnightly settlement on the Stock Exchange
which began on Friday the jobbers intimated to their brokers
that they would not be in a position to carry over stocks on
the same scale as heretofore. Therefore brokers have been
putting pressure upon their clients either to pay for and take
up stocks or to sell them; and the fear that it will not be
possible to carry them has added to the general disquietude.
In all reasonable probability the fears now entertained are
greatly exaggerated. The impression of the best informed
is that the
London
Globe Corporation will somehow
or other be provided with the means of meeting its differences, and reorganizing.
Indeed, if we may judge from
Wednesday's meeting the shareholders are willing to agree
to a call being made which would provide about half a million sterling. Furthermore, the best informed do not think
that the troubles inside the Stock Exchange are anything as
great as they are represented to be, and that in a very short
time there will be a recovery. The great thing is that time
has been given to make preparations: and as no failures have
occurred for over a wtek the likelihood appears to be that
the worst is over.
In trade proper there is a lull. Especially the iron and
steel trades are in an unsatisfactory condition; while there
is much uncertainty respecting the money market, and
therefore an unwillingness to enter into new enterprises,
Upon the Continent things are looking better than for some
months past. In Germany the iron and steel trades are very
bad; but the extremely severe weather that has prevailed in
Germany for some little time past has caused a sharp rise in
coal; and generally there is a much more hopeful feeling.
The rates of interest and discount are very moderate. There
is not much demand for French bankiog accommodation,
and investors are beginning once more to buy. They have
not done much in ordinary securities; but they are buying
German Government securities on a considerable scale. The
Baden Government has just succeeded in raising a loan at 4
per cent. The applications were so numerous that the subscription list was closed almost as soon as it was opened; and
even so the magnitude of the applications show that there is
plenty of money in the country. The Bavarian Government
is also about to borrow, as well as other minor German
States, and * very where it is believed that the success of the
issues will be great. This was to be anticipated.
For some years the low interest on Govercment securities
made the German public unwilling to invest. They preferred to buy mortgage bank bonds and industrial shares.
The failure of the four mortgage banks and the break- down
in the industrial market has warned the public of the dangers that lurk in these two directions, and therefore they are
turning once more to Government securities. Elsewhere
upon the Continent there is very little calling for notice.
The settlement of the Spanish debt was not voted by the
Senate; and hence the whole arrangement lapses, and the
negotiations will have to be carried through from the beginning. In France business is very quiet; and in Belgium the
slow liquidation goes on.
The directors of the Bank of England made no change in
their rate of discount this week, as indeed nobody expected
that they would; but until Wednesday they avoided taking
measures to get control of the outside market, and in consequence rates have fallen sharply away. The Bank, however,
has once more begun to borrow, and rates are again moving
npwards. For the moment it is not thought probable that
much gold will be taken for Paris. Indeed, the P.iris exchange upon London does not make withdrawals profitable;
but there is a fear that the Paris exchange may tall sharply,
and that unless rates are raised here gold will be withdrawn.
If, however, rates are raised here the French banks will continue to employ their money in London. In Germany the
money market is very quiet and is likely to continue so.
It is not probable that gold will be received from Germany;
and it is equally improbable that much gold will go to Germany. With regard to Russia, the uncertainty continues.
The best informed express surprise that Russia has not been
compelled before now to send gold in considerable amounts
both to Paris and to London. It is said that the Russian
Government has not borrowed even small amounts of late in
Paris. Indeed, in Paris it is alleged that the Russian Gjvernment is making inquiries in London as to whether a loan
could be placed here. In London itself nothing is known of

&

.

[Vol.

.XXII.

such inquiries, and they do not seem very probable; for in
the present state of the London market a Russian loan would
have no chance of succeeding. What probably will happen is
that the Bank of the Nobility in Russia will be authorized, as
it has frequently been on former occasions, to borrow a small
amount upon bond? in Paris, the bonda of course being
guaranteed by the Government; and if the money markets
ease in the course of the year it is almost certain that a large
Russian loan will be placed in Paris.

Railroad and Mlscellaneons Stocks.— The stock market
opened weak on Monday, subsequently became irregular, and
has so continued. The disturbed conditions abroad and
selling for foreign account gave an opportunity for professional manipulation of the market, which led to wide fluctuations and varying results. The prevailing tendency was to
weakness, however, until to-day, when substantial recoveries
have been made, and
many cases closing quotations are
higher than last week. Waba-h shares were a conspicuously strong feature of the railway list, followed by Texas
& Pacific. Kansas & Texas, Atchison and Reading' issues,
all of which close substantially higher than last week.
Southern Racific, Southern Railway preferred, New York
Ontario & Western and the Erie stocks were relatively
strong. The local traction shares were erratic. Brookhm
Rapid Transit covering a range of 8 points. Manhattan Elevated and Metropolitan Street Railway a range of nearly 6
points. St. Paul, on various coutlictiug rumors, fluctuated
over a range of 10 points, and clcses with a fractional net

Net Earnings Monthly to Latest Dates.— The following
shows the gross and net earnings to latest dates of all Steam
railroads furnishing monthly statements. The compilation
Includes every road from which we can get returns of this
character, and in that form is given once a month. Early returns are published from week to week, as soon as issued, but
for the convenience of our readers all the roads making returns are brought together here in the week in which we publish our monthly article on net earnings— say about the 20th
of the month.
The returns of the street railways we give by themselves
under a separate head at the extreme end of these tabulations

While the accounts lor the past year have not y et been finally closed.
It Is practically certain there will be no funds available for Intereston
the "O" (Income) debentures for the year 1900. In the ordinary course
a sum of about $^9,000 would have been received from the V.cksburg
Shreveport & Pacillo Company out of its earnings for the year ended

about £2 7s. t-id. per cent on the "0" debentures (as against £l 7s. 6d,
for 189i'); but in consequence of hostile action on the part of a holder of
third mortgage bondu, it became^necessary to have a receiver of that
property appointed on behalf of the first mortgage bondholders, who
iB still in ollioe, and therefore no distributl. n on account of income

particularly gratifying that the gross earnings for the
year, apportioned upon a mileage basis, should have approximated so closely to those of the preceding year, when
it IS borne in mind that they included the fiist year's operations of the Choctaw
Memphis Railroad, and that of this
road the larger part was completed in the y-ar just closed
throngh a territory theretofore lacking in railroad facilities,
the business of which had consequently to be developed,
and that the business of the other portion (the old Little
Rock
Memphis Railroad) had theretofore been small in
volume and requiring new connections to increase and develop it. Indeed, had the operation of the Choctaw
Memphis Railroad covered the entire twelve months, the
preceding year's earnings per mile would have been exceeded but even as it is the results have amply justified
the wisdom of its promotion and subsequent purchase.
The operating expenses per mile show an increase, attributable to three general causes: First, the abnormal cost
of the operation of the Choctaw
Memphis Railroad,
always an incident of the operation of a new railroad; second, the increased cost of supplies and materials and increased wages of employes, and, third, the expenses incident to your road having become a factor in through business, thus requiring an outlay in the way of establishment
of outside agencies, &c., which at the outset must necessarily be more than commensurate with business secured.
The amounts chai'ged in the Revenue Account to expenses incident to Maintenance of Way and Structures
include expenditures aggregating $58,623 24, which represent
additions and betterments to the property. The item of
ballast, viz.: $25,434 26. included in this amount does not represent the entire sum expended during the year in ballasting
the track, but represents only the outlay made for the cost
of burning clay or gumbo ballast sufficient to ballast about
fifty miles of the road.
considerable part of the ballast
so burned has been distributed in the track, but the cost of
this distribution, as well as the cost of the 57 miles of rock
ballast put in the track during the year, has been charged
to expenses, and is not included in the item of additions and

The work of re building practically the line of the Company between Little Rock and Memphis (the old Little
Rock & Memphis Railroad) has been steadily progressing,
and the next few months should see its completion. This
work has involved the raising and widening of the embankments, the replacing of old bridges with new, the ballasting of a lai-ge portion of the track with gravel, the re laying
of the entire road with a heavier weight of rail and the enlargement and improvement of the Memphis terminals.
All of this work, which could properly be classed as repairs,
hes been charged to expenses. The balance, representing
the work which can only be regarded as construction has
been charged to Construction Account and the cost of the
same provided for out of the proceeds of the stocJi of the

THE CHRONICLE.

26, 1901,]

During the year the White & Black River Valley Railroad
leased for the term of eighty years at a rental of
$25,000 per annum for the first ten years and S:jO,OUO thereafter. This line, 67 miles long, extends from Brinkley to
Jacksonport through a rich section of Arkansas, and had
been a valuable connection for your road. As an oppor-

was

tunity offered for securing its control at a rental not in
excess of its average net earnings for the preceding three
years, and as it vras certain that the business of the road
would be largely diverted from your line if it should pass
under the control of other interests, which its geographical
position rendered possible, a more certain hold upon its
business seemed desirab e,and this was effected througli lease.
Arrangements have been consummated .since the close of
the year whereby the acquisition of valuable extensions will
be secured for your Company. These include the construction of an extension eighty-six miles in length from Weatherford, the present western terminus of the line, to the western line of Oklahoma Territory, and of a line one hundred
and seventeen miles long from a point near Hartshorne to a
})oint on the Atchison System near the southern boundary
ine of the Indian Territory. YourComjJany will itself build
the first forty-six miles west of Weatherford the balance
of that line and the branch line from Hartshorne will be
built by the Western Oklahoma Railroad Company, but
under a contract which provides for their acquisition upon
;

completion by this Company.

To provide tin means for the construction of the forty-six
miles which this Company will build, a sale has been negotiated of §500,000 of its general mortgage bonds, being the
balance of that issue.
By the terms of the agreement with the Western Oklahoma Railroad Company, the lines which that company will
construct will be acquired for a sum practically equal to
their cost, which it is estimated will not exceed S'10uO,000.
The terms of the purcha.se involve the issue to the Western
Oklahoma Railroad Company of $3,000,000 fifty-year 5 per
cent gold bonds of this Company, part of an issue to be
known as Consolidated Bonds, which will be secuied by a
mortgage of the present property of the Company, and all
additions to or extensions thereof, and which will be issued
at the rate of $t, 000,000 for the coal estates of the Company and $15,000 per mile for each mile of road now constructed or hereafter acquired or constructed. Bonds to the
amount of the pre.>-ent issues of the General Mortgage and

Choctaw & Memphis bonds will be reserved only to
be used for the retirement of these issues, so that the bonds
outstanding under all mortgages shall not exceed in the
aggregate the authorized issue of the Consolidated bonds.
The rapid development of the section of country west of
Weatberford convinced your Board of the importance and
necessity of a further extension west, and there is every rea*
.son to believe that the results of this will be as satisfactory
as those that followed the extension to Weatherford two
years ago. The line from Hartshorne will run through one
of the most fertile sections of the Indian Territory, and will
undoubtedly command a large local business. In addition,
it will afford a route for the interchange of business with the
Atchison System, which will be of material beneht to the
business of your Company. Contracts, extending over a
term of years, already made with the Atchison System
assure this line a large volume of business of this character.
The business that these two lines should and doubtless
will secure will, in the judgment of the officers of the Company, be most satisfactory, and at a conservative estimate
should yield in profits to your Company not less than double
the interest charges that will be assumed in connection

with their acquisition.

Jan. 25, 1901.

slow market has been experienced locally for wheat
flour.
Jobbers generally have been drawing upon old orders,
and have been slow to make new purchases, bidding off in
prices.
Spring patents have held steady for desirable gr.^de8.
Latterly, however, considerable complaint has been heard of
the poor quality of some brands, and they have been difficult
to market.
Advices from the Northwest; reported a fair export business transacted at the close of last week. City mills
have had a limited sale at steady values. The demand for
rje fliur has been limited to smill orders, but prices have
held steady. Buckwheat flour has had a fair j jbbing sale at
uncbange 1 values. Corn m-^al ha < been qaiet, and the tendency of prices h.is teen in buyers' favor.
Speculation in wheat for future delivery has been qniet,
but there has developed a steadier undertone. Indicaii^as
have been that the liquidation of the long interest recently
created has been completed. The removal of this selling
pressure from the market has had a steadying iiflaence.
Another favorable factor was a decid-d improvement iu the
export business. Shippers were excoptionally free buyers at
the opening of the week, making lirge purchases at the eeaboard and in the interior marktt^^-. Statistical developments
reported early in the week were favorable to the market. The
world's shipments were not up to expectations. The sapply
of wheat in sight for the English market showed a moderate
decrease, sfrengthening the Eoglish markets and the American visible supply made a moderate dicrease. Latt-r in the
week, under a full crop movement reported from the Northwest, dis<»ppoiating advices from foreign markets and a
falling off in the export demand, prices reacted.
Ttinrsday
the market again turned flrmer. N jrth western recripts were
smaller and a large decrease in the visible supply for the
week was anticipated. Early in the week a l^rge export
business was transacted in the spot market. The close was
firmer but less active. Today the market wa? f.iir'y active
and higher. Sh ;rts V'ought to cover contracts, stimulated by
light receipts in the Northwest and reports relative to the
exportable surplus from Argentine. The spo: marktt wai
firmer but quiet. The sales for export here and at outporta
were 75,^0 J bushels.

THE CHRONICLE.

Indian corn f ntnres have been quiet. The fluctuations in
prices have been within a narrow range, and the net changes
for the week are unimportant. The movement of the crop
has been fairly heavy, and advices from interior markets
have reported fairly free country acceptances. Nevertheless
there has been no pronounced pressure in the market, and
with the leading speculative interest a ready buyer, prices
have been well maintained. According to reports in circulation a fairly large export business has been transacted at
outports. Locally the demand from exporters has beea limited.
Prices have held fairly steady. To-day the market

was firmer on moderate buying. The spot market was mod
erately active and firmer. The sales for export here and at
outports were 140,000 bushels.

The value of the New York exports for the vear to date
has been |405,037 in 1901, against $1,122,283 in 1900.
Conditions in the market for heavy brown cottons have
not undergone any material change. There has been no improvement in the home demand and export business continues quiet. Pricfs are decidedly irregular for goods on
hand but fairly steady for contracts. There has also been
irregularity this week in coarse colored cottons, denims,
ticks, cheviots aod others in spot goods with a quiet business
doing, but sellers are not pressing for orders for goods to be
made at current prices. In bleached cottons the actual demand has again been limited, but there have been inquiries
noted after considerable quantities below sellers' quotations,
but prices have been steadily maintained. In wide sheetings
and cotton flannels and blankets the market continues dull
at previous prices.
Cotton linings quiet and unchanged.
There is a steady demand of average proportions for fancy
and printed calicoes at previous prices and fair reorders for
fine printed goods, but the woven patterned goods division,
including ginghams and fancy cotton dress goods, continues
slow. Print cloths have been quiet this week with small
sales of regulars at 3i^c. and of odds on that basis.
Foreign Dry Goods. There has been no improvement in
the demand for foreign dress goods, and the market for these
is irregular.
Silks are quiet and unchanged, but a slight improvement is noted in ribbons. Linens continue firm but
quiet, and burlaps firm with scarcity checking business.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
New

Yobk, Fbiday, P. M., Jan. 25, 1991.
The slow expansion of the demand in the primary market
They had not
is a matter of some concern to sellers.
counted upon the development of any pronounced activity
this month, but there were few of them who did not look for
a fuller aggregate business by this time than has come forward. With the reports of good general conditions throughout the country this apathetic market in all branches of
textiles is not easy to explain on any other hypothesis than
that business was much overdone last year and that there is
nothing at present visible of a character to induce buyers to
go ahead of current requirements to any extent. The fact
that expectations have been disappointed robs forecasts of
their value, but still there is noticeable a conviction on the
part of most sellers that a marked development in the general demand cannot be long delayed. Thus it is that while
they part with such goods as they have on hand easily they
are more or less difficult to deal with when goods to be
made are in question, and while there is considerable irregularity in prices of the former the latter do not give way.
Business with the jobbing trade has been on a fuller scale
this week than previously this year.
Woolen Goods. Business in new heavy-weight woolen
and worsted suitings has been slow and buyers are apparently waiting for the opening of the Amerifan Woolen
Company's lines, promised for Monday next. This will go
far towards settling the situation in staple fabrics for the
early part of the season at all events. The current opinion
is that the new prices will be on a comparatively low basis.
The overcoatings market, although now fully opened, has
not shown other than a quiet demand coming forward during the week and business up to date has been somewhat
disappointing. There have been here and there revisions of
opening prices, but the majority of the early quotations hold
good. Cloakings have sold better than overcoatings and a
generally satisfactory business has bsen reported in them

Oats for future delivery at the Western market have received a limited amount of attention. There has been a fair
movement of the crop, and country acceptances have been
reported as freer. Elevator interests, however, have been
buyers, and there also have been indications of buying for
New York account. Locally there has been a steady spot
market, and business has been moderately active. To day
there was a quiet but steady market.
