MARKETS OF THE WORLD
LOCAL, STATE, EASTERN AND FOREIGN
REPORTS IN OUTLINE
The Orange Crop With Shipments and Eatl
matea of Surplus The Regular Weekly
Advance In Sugar, With Plgurea on tha
, World's Supoly-stocka and Bends
Oranges are moving a little bit slow
ly just at present, owing to a weaker
market nt Eastern points. The move
ment has been brisk. Tho best authori
ties differ as to the number of earn gone,
but it probably approximates nearly
6000 cars. As to what is left guesses are
wide apart. Only guesses are obtaina
ble, of course. Some say not over 500
cars, nnd some say 1500. Trobably be
tween these figures, say 1000 cars, would
not. miss the mark very much. Seed
lings are becorhlng scarce and are dear
er, while Mediterranean Sweets are
plentiful and are cheaper.
Sugar has scored its regular weekly
advance of 14c and the market Is strong
with prospects of further advances.lm
ports are very much below the average.
The olßclal imports of beet and cane
sugars during the seven months, as
compared with 1895, are:
1896. 1895.
Beet, lbs 87,332,137 288,090,936
Cane 1,558,703,737 1,317,445,625
The Imports of cane and beet sugars
during January last and corresponding
period in 1895 compare as follows:
1896. 1895.
Beet, lbs 37,377,666 92,367.162
Cane 219.507,279 94,307,781
Since January Ist the receipts of all
kinds of sugar at tlie four ports have
been 322,809 lons, which, added to 149,
--298 tons stock in nil hands on January
Ist, makes a total supply of 472,107 tons
since the opening of the year, From
January Ist to March 18th, 1895.the re
ceipts at the four ports were 262,385
tons; stock on January Ist. 165,469 tons;
total Bupply. 427.854 tons.
On the 18th Inst., Meat's, Willett &
Gray estimated the total stocks of
sugar in all hands at the four ports at
137,107 tons, compared with 137.351 tons
at the corresponding date In 1895.
The world's stock of sugar (principal
countries) is estimated by the same
authority at 2.488,901 tons, an increase of
15,391 tons compared with the supply at
cm-responding period of 1895. But in 1895
the excess or surplus was very large,
being fully 635,000 tons over the stock
held a year earlier.

Business Transacted and Prices Paid at Home
and Abroad
NEW YORK, April B.—The share
speculation today shrunk considerably
,below even the slim record of Wednes
day and the movement was even less
Interesting. Only three stocks in tho
regularly active list recorded a re
spectable total of dealings, and reduc
ing Tobacco to full stock, left only St.
Paul and Burlington entitled to distinc
tion In this respect. The course of prices
was irregular. London came lower,
•but selling for this account was an
i Inconsiderable factor. The initial
dealings were quite with prices rather
irregular. Tobacco soon became the
center ot attraction, arid althougri-the
first sale wa» at a fractional advance
the stock developed weakness on free
offerings, losing 1% percent. Towards
the end of the first hour reports gained
circulation suggesting aggressive ac
,tlon on the Cuban resolutions by the
president and a selling movement was
Inaugurated in which houses with
Washington connections were quite ac
tive Sugar yleded I*4/ The volume of
business was unusually light. In tho
Ilinal operations the course of values
was irregular, within a narrow range,
and the close wsb at general fractional
net declines. Business In railway bonds
was almost entirely confined to the
Northern Pacific Issues with the consol
fives most prominent. Atchison Issues
1 er* notably heavy and scored mater
ial losses In the general fours and ad
justment fours. The market other
wise ruled fairly firm on transactions
of $1,334,000. Governments were ac
tive and higher on dealings of $140,
--000.

THE LONDON MARKETS.
NEW YORK, April 9,-The Evening
Post's London financial cablegram says:
Investment stocks were strong, consols
leading, but the approach of the settlement
has checked speculation. Mines are dull,
due to the reported serious illness of Cecil
Rhodes. Americans were dull. Each mar
ket now blames the other for not respond*
lug to Its rise. There is absolutely no
public here In Americans, anil therefore a
strong initiative will be required to Induce
activity, lt Is understood from a good au
thority that fears are expressed lv America
of sales here of American bonds, lt Is
needless to Bay this depends on the course
of Congress towards the currency. If It
were not for fears here that the United
States Is drifting toward a silver currency
such bonds would rise. South Americans
were weak on a further rise In the Argen
tine gold premium. The Paris Bourse has
been steady, but closed dull. Berlin Is
steady, it Is reported the Japanese gov
ernment may open an account at the na
tional banks similar to thp former opera
tlon With the Bank of England, but al
present this is only a rumor.
