REVIEW OF THE MARKETS.
CONDITION OF GENERAL TRADE
DURING THE PAST YEAR.

Increase in the Volume of Trade In
the General Markets-Large Orders
Filled for Holiday Goods - The
Grocery Trade Active-Hardvare
and Dry Goods Quiet-strOng De-
mand and Heavy Sales of Naval
stores - The Spot Cotton Market
Quiet and Unchanged Security
Market Quiet and DuII-Resume of
the Week.
Savannah, Dec. 10.-The bank clearings
for the past week show an increase of
about 100000 over the same week last year
and about 100000 over the same week year
before last. There was heavy business
done in the general wholesale trades, es-
pecially in those departments dealing in
holiday goods. The volume of trade was
swollen by the heavy transactions in naval
stores, which continued to hold at fairly
remunerative prices. The movement of
cotton and naval stores to foreign ports
and lumber to the north, was fairly active.
The spot cotton market was the only dis
appointing feature of the weeks business.
That market remained unchanged in quo
tations with the tone quiet and transac-
lions limited. Transactions in f. o. b. cot
ton were quite large. The security market
was quiet and dull, except for southwest
ern stock, which was in good demand. The
following resume of the different markets,
both local and Geographic will show the
tone and quotations at the close to-day.
