CRUDE .TURPENTINE the
season advances the receipts of crude
material continue to decline, and. for
the week they have scarcely been equal
to the current demands of the distil-
lers. A better feeling in resins and
spirits tnrpentine has also induced a
more buoyant tone for this article, and
there was steady movement all the
week, with no essential changes of
prices, and no new developments con-
cern1ng the trade. There is not much
of the article being brought to the
CITY, Out THIS does not 1Qu1CaCo any
shortness of the crop, as it is well
known that the country surrounding
has been distilling more this year than
any season since the war. We con-
tinue to hold to our estimate of an
increase of on the crop of last year,
and from facts we are gathering we
hope to fully substasntiate our remarks,
which, at the time they were written,
caused such a dissension of feeling
among the distillers here. AS regards
the market at the close of the week,
we see no new development, and write
the market as closing steady at So for
hard and So 35 for yellow dip and
virgin. The receipts for the week,
1887 bbls., against 2,767 bbls. for
last week, show a falling off of $50
bbls. The exports for the week were
of very little Importance, and the
stock in yard does not exceed / 200
bbls., against 2.319 bbls. for last week.
The receipts and sales for the week
were as follows

TAR-The market of the week has
been subjected to n few unimportant
fluctuations. At the close of last week
we left the market dull with rather 4
declining weakness. On the first day
Of the current week, there was no vis-
BILE Improvement to the tone. bit the
concerted efforts of sellers managed to
induce a more steady feeling, and tie
sales were mt the former rates. Satur-
day early in the day there was a slight
revival of feeling. and IL small advance
was obtained Monday morning early
the advance was lost by correspond
ing decline, but later Il better feeling
existed, and the decline was regained.
Tuesday and Wednesday there was no
change III the position of the market,
the tone exhibiting a tirmer feeling,
but without any essential change of
figures, and to-day at the close of our
report the market may be written
steady at 81 50 p Dbl. The receipts
for the week $50 bbls against 9S2 bbls.
for last week, show n small decline.
The exports for the week rs bbls.
against 737 bbls. for last week, show
a small increase. The stock in market

a slight decline of mixed corn-thp
stoch Of mixed being entirely i'll eN-
cess of the demand The cargo arr
walls this week were confined to the
Schr. Lena, containing 300 bushels,
which was heated and damaged, and
which was sold at 81 cents. This sale
is no criterion of the market, and 1t
is thongllt that arrivals will bring last
figures, Sc cents, but as we have re-
marked in prior reports that no posi-
tive dependence can be put III this, us
the receipts from Northern markets
continue to be of 4 sufficient size TO
supply the demand The receipts for
the week, ID, 724 bushels, against
49, bushels for last week, show a
falling off of 4 4S1 bushels, and from
all sources were as follows From
Philadelphia, $500 bushels from

meats at steady prices. The tirmness
! of the trade is due, in part, to the con
| tinued strength exhibited ill the
market here aud a. the principal pro
vision cities, where it is, asserted thai
the strength is due to the small stock
held in Southern markets. Our pri
vate reports for the Western trade
give us assurance that the market
there is kept firm by the late corner
and by the stock being held
principally by spectators. 1t is
asserted that the season of this

that there will be a spfplps stock il

SPIRITS TURPENTINE-T There
has been decided reaction in the mar
ket this week and II steady and regular
advance was gained. At the close of
last week we left the market IN settled
al. 80 cents. On the first day of this
week, Mt the opening of the business
of the day, there was no decided i'm
prOvement in the tone of the market,
and i'll fact buyers were not even dis
posed to operate Mt lower figures, but
subsequently better alvices from New
York invoked 4 more earnest feeling,
and buyers readily paid an advance of
closed firm at SO! cents, and opened so
Saturday when further advance of ]
cent was effected. Monday sellers were
| firm and were asking higher figures,
! but buyers We're unwilling to concede
| 10 their views, and the day passed
| without transactions Tuesday the
| previous days feeling was maintained,
and buyers We're forced to pay All adj
vance early III the day OF ! cent. Later
there was n large enquiry and upwards
of 1000 casks changed hands at al
cents, being n further advance of
cent. Wednesday the market was
steady and sales were free at unchang-
ed figures. Thursday, at the close OF
our writing, there is no change in the
tone, and the market may be quoted
as closing steady at 40 cents. The re-
ceipts for the week 4, 491 casks against
1888 casks for last week, show n small
falling off. The exports for the week
$500 casks against 3, O20 casks for last
week, show an increase of 3. s52 casks

says
An important question, which will
render necessary diplomatic correspOn-
dcnce between this country and Great
Britain, and which will probably
call for an amendment to the Wash

until it is settled good deal OF diff
| Guilty and Inconvenience will be expe-
rienced by some of the citizens and
| officials of both countries on Puget
| Sound and elsewhere on the border of

bia. Doubts are entertained as to
! whether British Columbia is entitled
to the benefits of the Washington
| Treaty SO far rs the importation of
fish oil is concerned, British Columbia
not having been Il part of the Domin-
ion of Canada at the signing of the
treaty. AS the question fJ.one of i'm
mediate Importance and interest to the
United States officials at ports in
Washington Territory, the attention of
the Secretary of the Treasury has been
called to it, and the proper officials i'll
the department now have the subject
under advisement. There seems to be
no clause i'll the treaty of Washington
which can be SO construed rs to make the
fishery sections of that treaty applica
