T THE CONDITION OF TRADE. The Money Market Continues Very Easy. o BORROWERS GET GOOD RATES. Trust and Investment Companies Find Difficulty in Placing Their Funds—General Busines: Stuill Improving. The Local Ontlook. BThe money market continues very easy, and bankers report an abundance of funds on hand with which to meet all legitimate wants, Trust and investment companies find difficulty in placing their funds and rates and upon n vasis of security entirely satis- factory, the competition in their line being 80 great as to enable borrowers to obtain terms better than they should have if thor- oughly conservative methods prevailed. Ex- change is steady at the usual rate of $1 per 1,000 premium. General trade coutinues to improve, and whilo the volume of business is not entirely satsfactory, jobbers generally are fecling cheerful, and when they} come to compare footings are ready to adiit that the totals to date are equal to, if not 1n excess of those of 1588, and the indications are plain that the spring busi- ness will be much larger than_was thought possible six weeks since. Collections are fair, though not 80 good as _they should be, and a great many country traders are be- hind in settlements to date, but there have been fower failures, and with bright, settied weather the outlook in this respect will, it is thought, materially improve. City trade is in pretty good shape all around and an average busiuess is doing. Prices ure, as u rule, steady with an ad- vancing tendcncy in most lines. Sugars are excited and refiners ure limiting their brok- ers’ actions and nccepting oraers only sub- ject to confirmation. Standard granulated is nearly 1c per pound higher than o week since, Coffes, dried fruits, oils and green teas ure very steady, while flour is lower, in sympathy with wheat. Lumber, hardware and building material, 4 a class, is moving under an active demand. Dry goods are in good demand for all varieties of spring goods and prices are very firm at quotations. A_statement of the money circulation of the Unmted States on the 1st of the present month, issued by the treasury department, gives the aggregate as $1,404,200,000, ‘thus showing a contraction of 4,000,000 during the month of February, but an expansion of $33,000,000 as compared with one year ago. "o ' gold con and_bullion in the treasury amounts_to §326480,014; _silver dollars and bullion, $208,701,0s7; legal tenders, $44,436,- (45 gold certificates in_circulation, $128,8! 910: silver certificates in_circulation, §24 866,450 currency certificates, §15,920,000, "fhe Nebraska state farmers’ alliance esti- mates the amount of farm mortgages in that state as 150,000,000, which at 7 per cent drains the state to the extent of ),500,000 per annum, According to statistics compiled by the de- purtment of agriculture, the number of hogs in the United States in January 1ast was 50,- 501,502, against 44,840,535 in the same month last year, and 44,612,880 ata similar time in 1857, In the twelve western packing states —Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, lowa, Missouri, Kausus, Nebraska, Mindesota, Wisconsin, Michigin, Kentucky and Tennessce—thé supply in the month ' mentioned was 33,946, 858 this y 3,267 in 1888 and 27,316,958 B Tree STow with: 6,750,000 leads.all hor sister states in the llllmb(!r of hogs reported. Next to lowa comes Illinois_with 3 and then Missouri, Ohio and Kansas. Iight of the twelve western packing states re- turn over 2,000,000 hogs, and fifteen states of the union over 1,000,000 cach. It 18 rumored that the sugar trustis con- sidering the policy of forcing asharpadvarce in prices for spot. goods untii the Spreckels refinery at Philadelphia is opened. ‘The two leading features of the statistical situation are, flrul.. 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 18 consider- ably short of last year, and no known crop is any larger than last year, excepting that of the Philippine islands, which may show a moderate excess mpured with last year, The imports into this country since January 1 from Cuba have only been 40,000 tons, us ugainst 79,098 tons last yoar, a differonce of 84,036 tons. There is o deficiency of about 40,000 tons i the Louisiana_crop, and this and the natural inerease in the consumption wili cause an _increased consumption of for- e1gu raw sugar of about 10 per cent. Coffec 18 hield firmly on account of the bad crop prospect. Present supplics aro large, lowever, the Visible supply at the American seaboard and afloat for our shores embrac- ing 479,321 bags of Rio and Santos _coffees, aguinst 402,300bags a_year ago. Therc are 490,000 bags at Rio de Janeiro and 252,000 bugs at Santos. At Havre the coffec supply reaches 435,000 bags, of which 260,000 bays are Brazilian. The' official figures of the movemont of tho world for oight months ending Mareh 1, 1589, show the total visible supply to 3,250,053 bags, against 5,077,420 bags February 1, 1880, an increase of 178,524 bags, Comparcd with March 1, 1388, the supply is 300,000 bags more. Compared with March 1, 1857, the supply”is now 905,000 bags less. The consumption of the world for eight months to March 1, 1889, was 6,239,814 bags, against 4,005,208 for the same period of 1587-88, and 6,605,812 for the same period of 1580-87. Dried fruits are doing better and prices are stronger. California fino halved peaches show @ decided improvement und aro ad- vancing; as they are not so plentiful as was firat supposed. ~ Raspberrics are in good de- mand at firm prices. Blackberries are sell- ing in very large quintities at the prices now offercd. Cherrics are elso improving. reon teas are becoming stronger, as the disposition to pick up the “outside” lots has pretty woll reduced the unconcentrated sup- ply und left the principal second-hand ac- cumulations in better for il OMAHA LIVE STOOK. Uattte. Saturday, Murch 16, 1839, ority of the salesmen were lookiug for iberal receipts and an casicr market, AR ST e e | to think that 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 ail the cattle offered in the market found a buyer before the close, but the de- mand was not very extensive, and the pack- crs especially did ot appeur to care f0v many cattle, The aquality of the cattle was very good and there was at least one bunch of better and heavier cattle than has beea here before this week, which sold at#390. Quite o string of cattle brought #1550, but the bulk of the sales wore at §2.90003.35, The offermgs of butchers' stock wore light, und there iere uwo very good cows on sale, The trade w fecders was lim- ited mostly to the sale of ufew odds and ends, Hog The receipts wero light and there were not hogs enough in the yards to make very much of u market, but what there were sold at prices which would average a hittle stronger than the general market yesterday. The sales were nearly all ut #4.45, with only oue trade at $1.50, Sheep. The receipts of sheep wore liberal, but there were only two double decks which e good enouh for the local packers and they sold quickly.

Fairbank’s Movements Continue to Be a Mystery. CURN GOES A LITTLE LOWER. A ¥airly Active Business in Oats—Pro- visions Continue Quiet—Cattle Slow and Uncertain— Hogs Brisk, CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET, OnicAao, March 16.—[Special Telezram to Tue Bee.]—This was the day wheat should have sold off. The storms which have been breeding for a weck or ten days have invari- ably dissipated into thin air before reaching the winter wheat belt, and the weatner is now as balmy and beautiful as it has been at any time yet. The speculative sentiment everywhere is bearish, and the whole world is impatient to sell everything that grows. The bearish influences seem to be culminat- ing, and to-day nobody could be found who had any bull news or bull views to communi- ate. O, yes, at the opening somebody said Bradstreet had estimated the world’s surplus of wheat at 109,000,000 bushels. That was supposed to be a bullish item, Later when the figures were changed to 190,000,000 bushels the bears were jubilant, - Meantinio, nowever, May wheat had climbed from 951<¢ to 98¢, and July wheat from SGigc to 8idge, and it only worked back g@ic on the col- lapse of the last forlorn hope of the bull {mnh. ‘That, too, was thought most singular, v was thought to be especially 80 in_view of the news that was circulated that Fairbank bad sold out his wheat. This time there was not the faintest shudow of a doubt about it. The market should have broken all to vieces on this news, but it didn't. Hutchinson's buying was quoted as the reason why it didn’t break, but Hutch himself was a liberal seller at times. Altogether the situation was badly mixed. The keenest people on the floor arc by no means certain that the Fairbank party is out of wheat, that it was trying to get out of whoat, or thut it wants to be out.of wheat. On the contrary, have seen & good many little things which lead them to think that ‘‘the deal” is more nearly tied up at this moment than it has been at any time since last fall. This, however, may be mere conjecture on their part andis only printed as part of the floor gossip. After the first advance in Mus ‘wheat to 98¢ it declined }¢c and then spurte up to 98}¢e. During the last hour the price fluctuatéd between 9715@078c and the close was 973¢c. The tone seemad weak and there appeared to be nplenty. of wheat for sale, but the market was not one to invite ‘reckless shorting. July ‘wheat opened at §61¢c and ranged at 86} Si3gc, closing at 803, @s63c. The final figures shiow a 1@1}c gain. in May and }@Jc gain n July. ‘The speculative transactions were quite up to the recent average. Hutchinson's* buying and alleged selling of Fairbank’s wheat were the principal features. The receints of corn were heavier by 61 cars than were anticipated in the estimates made yesterday, and the bright dry weather is daily converting more corn from the lower grade into the contract grade. These were the principal causes of the downward 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 and ship- pers were securing concessions on the vprices 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 profit, 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 auring the day;353c was momen- tarily reacned for May, but_ there was very little sold at that figure. The close was at a recovery of }{c from the lowest price during lhelduv, and was }cunder the ruling price on Friday. There was a fairly active speculative busi- ness in oats topay and the feeling was stronger most of the session, but the full ad- vance was not maintained. May opened at about 25%c but witi good fair buying and the moderate offerings the price was gradually advanced to 25%c. At this point there was pretty fair selling, resulting in a decline of ¢, or to 25%c. It ruled quite steady at about’ this figure for some time, closing at about 255%¢c. No. 2oats were quiet, with sales of car lots at 24@243c. 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 as 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 of 10c, and in lard and short ribs of 7igc. CHICAGU LIVE STOOR. Cnica6o, March 16,—|Special “Telegram to Tue Bee]—Carie—Trade was about the same as auy other Saturday, slow and uncertain, a few fair to good ‘steers selling about the sage as yesterday.

New YorE, March 16.—[Special Telegram to Tk Ber.)—Stocks—The stock market to- day consisted of a flurry at the start, with prices off 1{ to ¢ per cent from last night, a slight rally toward noon and closing above the closing prices of Fr The cheerful talk circulated so freely after hours yester- day led many to believe that ever if there should be a flurry and a break in prices carly to-day, that it would be the end of the pres- ent depression, While the stocks generally aid not close at the bottom figures, there ap- pears to be little to base hopes on for any radical -change of sentiment. The same bearish feeling prevailed with the trade. London cabied as reasons for selling specula- tive sales on this side, the rate cutting, gold shipments and the feeling in Paris. As af- fecting trade, the acceptance of Chairman Walker does not outweigh the fact that vates are again being cut and that roads cs- sential to the success of the association are not yet included in the agreement. Good authority says the trafic return continues fairly ahead of last year, however, and the rest of the dificulty is the dissatisfaction of the investors with the manner in which tle corporations have been managed. The most active stocks during the morning were St Paul, Missouri Pacific, Reading and Burling- ton, all of which lost 1§ to % per cent carly, but gained strength the last hour and closed steady at Friday's figures, except Burling- ton, which was 1 per cent lower. Activity und @ slight return of strengtii after 11 o'clock caused some progress all through the list, with grangers to the frour.

COLLECTIONS ARE VERY FME- A Disposition Shown on the Part of Loaners to Pat Their Fands Into Long Invest- ment The Business Resume. Cncaco, March 9.—|Special Telegram to Tue Bre,]—The chief foatures of the money market are continued easiness in rates de spite an increased demand. The chief bore owers are merchants and manufacturers who are preparing for the spring trade. Lumbermen are also asking for more favors than at any time in months, as they are breaking up their logging camps and require considerable money to pay their men and prepare for the season’s busiuess that is be- fore them, There is an increasing supply of nearly all descriptions of paper at the banks and on the street, but no trouble is ex- perienced in placing it, owing to the liveral amount of money awaiting profitable invest- ment. Call loans were freely made at § per cent and time loans at 6 per cont. The bulk of the commercial paper afloat pays 6 per cont and some readily commands 7 per cent. liberal amount of money 18 being placed on real estate at 5 and 6 per cent. In many instanees there is more disposition on the part of louners to put their funds into long investments at low figures, where a sure return is promised, than to let it out for short terms at a slightly higher rate. Col- lections are all that cun be expected at this season und a fairly healthy condition of affairs exists in nearly all lines of business. The eastern loan market is not particularly active, but a steady feeling exists. The market for New York exchange was rather dull and unsettled, sales being made at a wide range. Sollers as a rule were not, dis- posed to accept the terms bid by buyers and at times 1t was diflcult © make trades, Transactions were made at 25@60c discount per §1,000 aud closed at 50@60c. Foreign ex- change met with more demund and during the early part of the week it was casier, rates declining !@@igc owing to the slightly in- creased ofiurlnm of bills drawn mostly against shipments of corn and_provisions, Sixty days documentary bills on London sold at (@485 and closed at #8437 4,85, The fairly favorable weather has !lhnulnlml the jobbing trade in nearly brauches, e pecially in the dry goods, clothing, milline ory and boot und shoe lines, most of the jobbing houses having about all the orders they can conveniently provida for, Hardware was active. Sugars und coffees also sold moro freely, and a steady feeling prevailed on staples of all descrip- tions. The New York stock market while exhibiting increased activity was consider ably unsettled, the sharp advances being followed by declines that carried the stocks lower than before. St. Paul was the leading feature, and during the latter part of the week prices were irreguiar. The action of its directors in declaring a dividend of 2 per cent on proferred stock created surprise, as an impression existed that it had not beon earned. The directors, however, eas- ily overcame the difficulty by changing the year, making it end June 80, instead of December 31, as heretofore. The rond earned 3 per cent the first half of 1888, but hardly 1 per cent the last hulf, and is ex- pected to carn 2 per cent the first hulf of this year. London was a liberal seller during the imost of the week, but u buyer latter. Stock that has loaned flut in the road was called in on Thursday, and the pice advanced to ig premium, This induced free buying, pars ticularly by the shorts, and prices advanced 214, but the outside figures were not inain- lnh\ed The news from London and Paris was_emphatically bearish. In the copper stocks in Paris the liquidation was heavy und at times the feelng was panicky, and a large shrinkage in values re- sulted. Strenuous efforts were made to bolster the market for such shares to allow the insiders to get out, but they were in the main unsuccessful, and shurp depressions followed the advances. The unsettled feel- ing abroad brought in free selling orders for American sccurities in Now York, These, coupled with a reduction ,in the price of an- thracite coal, mado the ‘bears move cour- ageous, and a free nellmg of the general list ensued, which established a lower range of prices, with exception_of Pullmun, which de- chined 8 points, and Oregon Nuavigation 4 points. The losses did not average over t. The bond market exhibited fair uo- but no special changes occurred. Tha egate sales on the New York stock ex- change for the week were 1,608,000 shares. With the weather rather spring-like, ther is noticeably a gradual improvement in al departments of trade. Reports from the interior indicate that the farmers are pro- gressing with their spring work in some sec- tions and making preparations in others. Some broduce is being lorwarded to' the small stations, but the bulk uf the grain. re- ceived at the leading markets is being trans ferred from the interior elevators. Specula- tive trading was active in the leading arti- cles, attended with more than the usual fluctuations in pri In fact it has beon & sparring contest between the bull and bear interests, and the result was generally favor- able to the latter in the grain murkets and to the former in provisions, The supplies of grain have gradually decreased and there has been no material enlargement in the supplics of provisions. OpParators appear to be transferring their cont s ahead some- what, July delivery attracting more attens tion both in grain aad provisions, Advices from the foreiws markets have not been particnlarly favorable to the loug interestof the domestic markets and have to & great extent followed the course of the mar- ku.s 4t Chicago. The shipments from hete have been moderately large and the rate cutting in freights from the far western points has enlarged the through movemont of grain to the umlb-mrd The approach of the ogening of lake navigation has led to an improved inquiry for vessels, but only o fow engagements have been made. Considerable money has been forwarded to the interior, which would indicate an active business dur- g the spring months, The crop proapects ble, both at home and abroad, and ding 13 progressing in the west und southwest, ‘I'he movement of live stock has been moderately free 1o all the leading west- ern markets, especially of cattle and hogs, Packing operations are progressing quite actively, and returns for the west since March 'l show an increase of 130,000 hogs, compared with the veturns for the corre- sponding time in 1885 ¢ Sports in Karn s, Sporting men, or at least u few of the, are beginning to fight amony theus:lves on ccs that Lave and were to have taken at the Calis #eum.
