[aEPoRTBD FOR THE sAcRAMEyropAILY REcoRD-USIoS
San FRANCISCO, February ~, 1880.
Trade is still at dead calm There is no vitality
in it as yet. 1t is suffering in every wholesale line.
When this dizziness shall give way to activity, none
can tell, and there indications on which to
base conjecture to the duration OF the torpidity
There have been some heavy purchases of wheat,
mainly to send abroad and the prices have slightly
advanced under that influence Barley holds its
own, oats dull, corn the same, potatoes drug
beans low. Hides declined three cents Wool out
OF the market pending the income OF the spring clip
and the prospect for high figures is good In the
money market there is little or no activity Con
yertible securities command most investments
though those with these colateras as he Herald put
it, F" are not oyerdesirous OF changing except at
round profit. Interest seems not 10 be so much the
question as the roundness of securities in which the
ready funds are seeking placement The semi annual
reports of the California savings banks give & good
indication of the monetary inactivity at present pre-
vailing here. The deposits have been declining for
several years past, now aggregatng s5l, 1854 900,
showing decrease of fully &C. O0o, 900 within the
past year, and notwithstanding this decrease the
cash on hand has been augmented to such an extent
that deposits have been refused, the reason being
that they lind it very difficult to make satisfactory
loans under the general dalIness of all business
circles"
