FOR THE WEEK ENDING Dec. ID.
For the last month of the year fairly good
trade is generally reported In fact jobbers are
putting out about all the goods they care to I'M
der the present condition of things. The recent
depression, with the large number of failures for
several months past, has exerted an unfavora-
BILE influence on collections, which are slow and
unsatisfactory, consequently avery conservative
policy continues to prevail in commercial cir
Giles. There is nothing new to note in Bread
stuffs, prices being on steady basis and without
quotable change. Hog products went off early
in the week considerably but to-day the market
developed more strength, with the recent de-
cline nearly recovered. The market for refined
Sugars is firm and unchanged. Coffee Teas
and Molasses quiet and steady without special
feature. Apples a little firmer with only mod
crate inquiry. Turpentine lie higher. Linseed
and Boiled Oil exhibit much strength; prices
are 1c above last week. and a further advance
of &c is expected tomorrow. Hay is offered
more freely, and pressed has been bought at a
lower figure this week than at any time since
the new crop was put upon the market. Fresh
Beef steady and unchanged with light supply;
we quote sides 51a@s1zc % fb, kinds at Sag
lI1sc, fores 5@61ac, rounds 7QGSc. rump-loins

Quotations Of Staple Products in the
Leading Markets.
Review, Received Daily by PuIlen, Crock
er g. Co.
NEW YORK. Dec. IL

NEW IOnA, DSG.
The market continued stagnant, and outside
of spirited movement against the shorts in
Gen. Electric, the dealings were devoid of in
terest. The professional element remains in
control and the shorts were disposed to cover
up lines generally. Outside news were without
special feature. There being no German steam
er until next Tuesday no gold exports are prob
able until that day. Foreign exchange is weak
enng IN the mean time but it is commonly be-
heved among bankers that the higher interest
rates abroad will attract further amounts OF the
precious metal to Europe. As to the railroad
outlook it is. confessedly bad. but there is hope
that economic expenses will render the future
net returns less discouraging than the gross
reports. is worthy of note that the current
December gross comparisons, with few excep-
tons, show losses not only from 1892, but from
1891, when the mileage was considerably small
CT. Delay in reporting the tariff bill for discus
sion il Congress has led so far to notifications
in the direction of higher duties, but pending
the uncertainty of the final results it is not like
ly that the business situation will show much
Improvement. Interest is felt in Sec'y Carlise's
Forthcoming report, and it is possible thar the
character of the recommendations may furnish
ground for fresh speculative operations. Pend
ing new developments in conditions we look for
only narrow professional speculation, but
While there is no reason to anticipate the dis
lodging of long holdings, we see nothing in the
outlook to encourage purchases except on the
bear raids with view to taking quick profits.
