BANK MOVEMENTS.
The returns of the associated banks in New York City afforded
nothing worthy of special comment. The banks showed a gain,
as usual, in their items of deposits and io specie and legal
tenders in the summer, and the deposits at the end of the year
were also noticeably large, being not far below the amount
reported on the first of July. The statements Bear the opening

in imports of gold and silver, against an excess in exports of

It should be said, however, that in part the recent increase is

and the second decline to 64 was e.x-interest. The
range has been 69}^, 64, 66J^, including interest, and 64, 67)^,
65)4' ex -interest.
The business in these bonds has averaged
nearly |1, 000,000 for each of the business days. The range
of prices for other bonds during the week has been as follows,
viz: Burlington & Quincy debenture 5s at 91 J:^f<?93i^; Central

firsts at 105i'^(g'l033^(axl01i^(ai023^@J^; Kansas & Texas genfirst
There have been no special developments in the way of what
«ould be strictly called " failures " in the last week. 'The resignation of Mr. Villard from the presidency of the Northern
Pacific and the incidental development that liis private fortune has been lost cannot be called a failure in the mercantile
sense of the word. So, also, the fact that the resources of tlie
North River Construction Company are apparently proving
insufficient to build and fully equip the New York West Shore
& Bulfalo Kailroad, the actual cost of which has been from
$5,000,000 to $7,000,000 over the original estimates, is important only as sliowing that tlie West Shore Company may be
obliged to raise something like that sum either by a second
mortgage or by some other method.
In the New York money market there is still as much of a
plethora of unemployed funds as ever, and the amount is daily
being increa.sed by the annual interest and dividend disbursements. The distrustful feeling, which has been largely due
to the expectation of just such developments as those above
referred to in connection with tlie Northern Pacific and the
New York West Shore & Buffalo railroads, still prevails to a
large extent, though the better understanding of the real facts
in each case has done something to help restore confidence, and
in the last day or two there have been more indications of a
disposition to invest in railway stocks and bonds than for several weeks before. The rates for money, however, continue
extremely low. For call loans on stock collaterals they have
ranged from 2 to BJ^ per cent during the week. The rates for
time loans have continued at 4}^ and 5 on similar collaterals
for six months. Rates for mercantile discounts remain at 5
and 5)4 for first chiss double-name paper for 60 days and
four months, and 6 and 6}^ for single names.
The great foreign banks all show considerable losses of
<*ipecie during the week. The Bank of England lost £129,000.
The Bank of France lost 10,262,000 francs in gold and 6,313,000
francs m silver. Tlie Bank of Germany lost 17,766,000 marks.

Railroad and Miscellaneons Stocks. The stock market
has been very much unsettled during the week, owing to conflicting views taken by the public of the developments expected
in connection with the examination and report on the financial condition of the Oregon & Trans-Continental Company,
the doubt about the settlement of the troubles among the Iowa
and Nebraska pools, the complications of the Delaware Lackawanna & Western with the Trunk Line Pool, etc. etc. During
the first two of the last seven days the majority of speculators
were disposed to take bearish views, and there were free predictions of unfavorable developments on each of the above
features. The last three days, however, have shown a considerable recovery of confidence, and tlie result is that the declines
of the first few days have in miost cases been more

Pittsburg Railroad.
ending
Sejjt. 30, 1883.)
report for the late fiscal year is just out. Mr.
"Walston H. Urown, the President, states in his report that
"the sectiun of the road opened for traffic daring the year
embraced the Rochester & Salamanca Division, li)Si.^ miles in
length, and i6^ mile.s of the Buffalo & Pittsburg: Division, extenaing from Salamanca Junction to the city of Bradford. This
makes 125 miles of road operated during the entire fiscal year.
la addition to the above mileage, there was a portion of the
Buffalo & Pittsburg Division, extending from Bradford to
Dubois, opened for coal traflic during the last thre« months of
the fiscal year. The gross earnings for the previous fiscal year,
ending September 30, 1882, were $305,988, which shows an
increase of |237,C50 for the present year. The principal source
of this increase was derived from the coal tonnage which has
passed over the nad during the last three month.s of the present fiscal year. The first sliipraent of coal over our road from
Dubois was on the 1st day of May, 18S3. The first shipment of
coal from the company's own mines, located at Beechtree, was
on the 27th day of June, 1883, and the first shipment of coal
from the company's mmes located at Walston, two niiles south
of Punxsutawney, was on the 22d day of September, 1883.
" The division of our road extending from Bradford to Dubois

was an advance last Saturday, but the cloie was barely steady
at about the lowest figures of the daj', under sales to realize
in view of the closing of tne Cotton Exchange till the following Wednesday. The re-opening of the market, after the
New Year's holidays, was with a very buoyant tone, and
prices advanced 12(''14 points, but there was some weakness
at the close, and the opening of Thursday was somewhat
uncertain in tone. A movement in January contracts, by
which the wide ditference between them and the later deliveries was reduced a few points, caused a re-action toward
better prices, and a fin^l closing at an irregular advance.
To-day the opening was at a further improvement of 3(S4
points, but there was less activity, the buying for a rise
having evidently received a check, and the strength of values
was due mainly to ihe absence of sellers. The close, however,
was at a further advance, and, ad compared with last Friday,
prices were 20@25 points dearer for this crop and 13 for the
next. Cotton on the spot has had but a limited sale, and the
small dealings have been mainly with home spinners. Recent
failures have impaired the credits of many small buyers, and
this has had some effect in keeping transactions within narrow
limits.
But in sympathy with the speculation in futures
quotations were advanced J gC. on Wednesday. To-day there
was a further advance of l-16c., middling uplands closing

The above statement shows
That the
from the
plantations since September 1, 1883, were 3.915,780 bales; in
1882-83 were 4,053,621 bales; in 1881-82 were 3,793,776 bales.
2.
That, although the receipts at the out-ports the pa« week
were 140,612 bales, the actual movement from plantations was
only 126,276 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks at the
interior towns.
Last year the receipty from the plantations
for the tame week were 228,789 bales and for 1882 they were
139,502 bales.

KBCBiPTa FROM THB PLANTATIONS. The following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are sometimes misleading, as they are made up more largely one yea^
than another at the expense of the interior stocks. We reach
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

the quality of both is expected to improve very soon. Both

Comparative Port Rbcbipts and Daily Crop Movement.—
A comparison of the port movement by weeks is not accurate
as the weeks in different years do not end on the same day of
the month. We have consequently added to our other standing
tables a daily and munthly statement, that the reader may
constantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative
movement for the years named. The movement each month
since September 1, 1883, has been as follows.

Jute Bnirs, B.iGaiN0, &c. The market for bagging has not
since our last report, and the demand is of a
jobbing character. Sellers are firm, however, and nothing is
to be had below quoted rates, which are 954c for 1/^ lb., 9%c.
fori?! lb 10>^c. for 2 lb. and ll^c for standard grades. Butts
are steady though the demand is ligbt, and only small lots are
bt-ing taken.
The transactions are about 1,000 bales, various
grades, at 2i|'@2%o. to arrive, and 2%(a)2/4c. on the spot, and
these are the figures at the clo;ie. The stock on hand is 47,500

Flour has been quiet and at times weak, without showing any
marked change in price. The demand, both for export and
home consumption, has been so light that the bulk of the liberal receipts have been stored.
The lower gradas, suitable for
export, have been the best sustained, the supply of these,
especially No. 2 and superfine, being the least burdensome,
while some decline in the rates for ocean freight room has been
a slight encouragement to exporters. To-day the market was
firmer, some grades being quoted higher than a week ago. The
demand was better both for the local and the foreign trade,
though the transactions showed no marked increase. Southern
Hour, in fact, was dull and nat very steady.
Wheat has been quiet for export, notwithstanding the cheapness of ocean freight room, the foreign markets still being la
an unfavorable state. There has been some trade with
exporters
who have had engagements

in British or
Continental markets, but the aggregate transactions have been
trade has also been quite moderate. The

declined. The quantity afloat for Europe is 520,000 bushels
less than a week ago, but the supply in Liverpool on the 1st
instant was 7,000,000 bushels, against 4,993,000 at the same
date in 1883, while the visible supply in thii cmntry shows a
slight increase. Some days ago prices here became firmer
under the influence of manipulations at Chiiago, but to-day the
continued dulness of the foreign trade caused renewed weakness, and prices declined

Indian corn has been quiet as a rule for export, though

Prices
were at one time weak, but latterly, owing to a decrease
in the receipts both here and at
the West, they have
taken an upward turn.
The speculation, however, has
not gone beyond moderate limits, partly owing to the
fact that there have been two holidays during the week.
To-day prices advanced /^ to l^c, owing to small arrivals here
and at Chicago, the receipts, at New York being only 30,265
bushels. H-iavy snowstorms at the West in the forepart of the
week seem now to be interfering with the marketing of the
crop the thermometer at a few points there to-day was 40
degrees below zero. There is very little Western white or yellow

Domestic Woolen Goods have as a rule been very- quiet in
the hands of both agents and jobbers, and the main features of
the market are unchanged. Clothing woolens were lightly
dealt in by themauufacturing trade, aside from worsted coatings and .satinets, in which a moderate business was reported in
8 line quarters.
Cloakings were generally slow, and there was
a good deal of irregularity in the demand for Jersey cloths.
In flannels, blankets and sha*ls, there was no movement of
importance, but some fair ordeis were placed for Brussels,
tapestry and ingrain carpets— for early delivery. Worsted and
all-wool dre-ss goods continued in fair request, with most relative activity in spring cashmeres, buntings and staple worsteds.
