SAN Francisco, April %, 1880
The heavy rains have checked the spring opening
of business 1t must be very brisk soon as roads
are opened again and the weather becomes settled.
The outlook in most lines of trade is very much
better In freights and charters there has been
nothing doing Rates are nominal-say 40s to
direct European market. The unexampled rains of
April will result in damage to some crops, say the
most recent advices. The Herald of to-day on this
subject remarks:
There are conflicting opinions afioat respecting the
good i'll effects of this heavy rainfall at this Pc
Rod of the year. No doubt injury has been done
in some OF the northern counties by an excessive
RAINFALL but in other dry sections notably that OF the
west side of the San joaquin, where vast tract of
land has been sown to Wheat, big crops arc assured
and SO of other districts where grain crofi.s ma
tured usually but in three years Take it all in
all, there is no doubt that the heavy rainfall of
April will be beneficial to the great majority of the
husbandmen of the State, securing to them full
erage crops.
Wheat and Flour are declining, there being no de-
mand for export. Barley, Oats, Corn and Beans
show no material change in prices. Wool is dull,
and plenty of stock is coming in Eastern buyers
are not anxious, and the market drags Merchan-
disc exports by sea for week past have been fair
The stock market shows some upward tendency af-
ter week of uncertainty. The heavy rains have
depressed financial transactions because OF fears of
heavy damage to crops in the interior. "City inan-
cial transactions says the Herald of this morning
blocks of real estate have been selling at very low
L., A.
cannot be disposed of at any price. The new rev.
enue law stands as much as anything in the way of
prosperity, and it is question whether we shall
ever be able to reconcile in so many respects the
conflicting provisions of the new Constitution Our
State has every inherent element for prosperous
future, but the many hampering political influences
seem to be directly aimed to retard every possible
Advancement and not until the lesson is thoroughly
brought home TO all will eaction set in, so that
with all the obs acles in way, we hopefully look
forward to gradual improvement in all our financial
and industrial pursuits"
The market for local securities shows more activ.
it than it did week ago, and the increase in vol
ume OF business is decided
