Daily Local Review.

FORT WORTH. TEX. April 1. 1883
There has been quite extensive trading
In retail lines in Fort Worth to-day, there
having been great many people in from
the country, who bought largely and
gave an sir of activity to the market.
Wholesale dealings have also been
large, with numerous orders from out
side merchants as well as personal pur-
cbases.
There Is enough produce coming in
these days to keep the market fairly sup
piled, and prices are not as stiff IS they
were week ago. Eggs have dropped Of
SO Is per dcZ,p, while butter is worth
% cents per pound.
THE MONEY MARKETS.
Some further evidences of close feeling
were witnessed In the New York market
during the present week, though this was
principally IN connection with commercial
paper. The obstacles encountered by
the bond purchasing resolution in the
Senate and the prospect Of further
delsy in that connection, has had q
measurably upfsvoIable effect. At
the same time, any spprehensions
on the score continues to be in
definite, and it must be noted that the
falling tendency in stock prices and con-
sequent liquidation has decreased de-
msnds for speculative purposes. Money
on call has consequently be easy, rang
ing, as shown by the quotations for bank
ers' balances on the Stock Exchange,
from II to per cent, the general aver
age for the week having been in the
nelghborhood Of p per cent. Time
money is dull and quiet -[Bradstree

NEW YORK, April 4.-The stock mar.
ket was more active to-day than on any
day for months, and also decidedly
strong, almost from opening to close, the
last prices and the best for the day being
In many cases identical. The market ad-
vanced readily even on light purchases,
but buiing wss very heavy throughout
the entire active list, which WAS the
result of morethan one favorable cir
cumstancs, the chief among VIII Oh
may be mentioned early sdvlces from
London giving the tone of that market as
very strong snd buoysnt, coupled with
undoubted liberal purchases for foreign
account, more encouraging reports from
Washington as to fosDclsl l. gislstiop,
and especially news from Chicago of the
raising Of the boycott On Chicsgo, Bur
lington and Quincy freight, which WAS
regarded as practical settlement
Of the strikes in that region.
There was ms ked improvement in Fort
Worth and Denver, whose decline last
week was owing to the sales CT stock on
the new extension, Snd good proportion
Of the loss was regsined. Opening sales
were made st advances extending TO ]
per cent. in the general list with excep-
tional gains among the specialties rang
ing up to 2 per cent. There w2s some
teverisnness in early trad ng but the list
soon regsined lis tone ard the
market advanced steadily on
very large dealings, though the
gains were corfaed to about per cent.
until to ward 2 p. N. when the advance
gathered force and everything shot up
sharply. The Improvement ended only
with the close Of business, which was ac-
tive snd strong.
Rsil cad bonds were more active but
were irregular during the forenoon and
only felt the stimulus of the Burlington
shares late in the day. While most Of the
issues traded in show advances 8 few
boads are lower.
Government bonds were firm.
