FRElGHTs. The Freight Circular of Brown &
Co, New York, reports for the week ending Marcl
+. Considerable inquiry for tonnage is expert
enced i'll nearly all foreign departments, bit il
the face of prevailing rates the tonnage offerings
continue limited, hence the business volume does
not expand to any appreciable extent. The lead
ing shippers of case oil continue i'll the market
for tonnage to the far East, but with vessels
scarce, and full ideas entertained by owners
negotiations are not promptly completed, The
tone OF the market, however, continues VERY
strong, as few vessels momentarialy available
and foreign owners are not disposed To send their
vessels hither upon the basis of present quota
tatiohS. Long voyage general cargo tonnage toi
tins month loading is inquired for. but the lines
hesitate to meet the terms that owners exact fol
vessels spot or nearby Barrel petroleum freight,
continue extremely dull, but no variation is ob
served in the quotations of the market. suitable
vessels continuing very scarce. Lumber Orders
from the River Plate and Brazil have been 4ccu.
muIating at the several loading ports, and vessels
are wanted for the transportation Shippers
however, strenuOusly oppose an advance i'll rates
while owners on the other hand are Indifferent t.
business upon the old basis. From Pensacola ana
Atlantic ports to Rio Janeiro several fixtures have
been completed at an improvement of twenty-five
cents per NJ, or say at Sl3 so, Naval store
freghts continue quiet; offerings of small YES
sells from Europe more literally made, though
owners abroad reluctant to close their vessels
upon the basis of rates now current In the line
of South America and West India frelghts there
has been little accomplished during the week
Orders from Cuba for coal and general cargo are
in the market bur the unsettled condition of thai
Island has disturbing influence upon credits, re
mlttances of late upon back Indebtedness prov
ing very unsatisfactory to merchants. Tonnage
for these departments is momentariy scarce
rates being low and unattraGtiye to owners. There
Is a moderate inquiry for vessels in the eoastwst
lumber trade, but current rates show no improve
ment upon the recent past. The coal trade con
