THE COFFEE TRADE
Current Conditions and the Present and
Prospective Supply *
The New York circular of Henry NordUnger
A Co. says:
"Our last report was dated the 15th nltlmo.
The receipts st Rio and Santos continue to be
running on an unusually large scale for this
time of the year.
"Tbe opinion Is now general that the Rio
nnd Santos crop will reach tbe enormous figure
of 18,000.000 bags. If not more.
"Speculators who based their faith earlier in
tbe year on the valorization scheme and on the
powers behind it have nearly all sold out. On
tho other bend, we find the concentration of
l.ijrb grades old crop Brazil coffee In the hands
of the most powerful interests In the trade
going on steadily and without interruption.
"As a result of this concentration of the spot
supply, we find the quotations on the coffee
exchange for nearby deliveries ruling at higher
prices than those for distant deliveries — Quite
the reverse of what we have witnessed in tnacy
rears past.
"Coffee cold within the last two months for
shipment from Brazil described as good roasters
has in many cases proven disappointing to the
importers, and coffee sold without description
has uKistly turned out worse than anything seen
here during the last decade, as far as roasting
merits are concerned. In some instances roasts
showed more than 50 per cent Quakers, a bean
without any merit whatever.
THE OUTLOOK FOB NEXT YEAR
'There have been rumors circulating of late
that the purchases of the governments of Sao
Paulo, Rio and Minas will soon come to a. halt,
ou the ground that the moneys which nave been
lwrrowed heretofore are about used up, and
that no further loans (which were contem
plated) were placed. These rumors have come
up off and on during the last four months. They
were never denied by the Brazilian governments
by word of mouth or cable, but the strongest
denial tbesc rumors could possibly have met
with were a quiet continuation of purchases
b.r the governments. The same state of affairs
probably exists at present. We believe that
the government is amply provided with funds,
said htving already purchased in the neighbor
hood of 5,000.000 bags, most of which Is financed
for qciie a long period, we do not believe,' now
that we are nesring the end of the crop, that
the plan of carrying the surplus of the pro
duction will be changed in the least. Our
previously expressed opinion that the ultimate
outcome of these government purchases will
rrsult in disaster remains unshaken. We believe
tho best solution to. be a aale of all coffees
acquired and owned by the Brarilian govern
ments to a syndicate of bankers and merchants.
This could, of course, only be brought about
xt a Kreat sarrln<-e. and will probably not be
tuougbt of until the governments are convinced
of the i;ttpr uselet>sness of their pollcr. Wf do
not expect snch an event to occur for a long
time.
"Should the next crop, that is the 1907-190S
rrv;) of Rio and Santos, which is variously esti
mated from 8.250.000 to 13,000,000 bags, prove
to b«? nearer the latter figure, then the govern
ment would have a difficult task on its hands
la supporting values; because a crop of that
extent, with the present antagonistic feeling
all over the world, would more than sufnee
for trade requirements, and would necessitate
the purchase of at least 2.000,000 or 3,000,000
bags more coffee for account of the government,
in order to allow the marketing of the re
mainder of the crop at a reasonable prict.
"Our own information, however, differs from
thßt which is generally accepted. The lilrht»st
••Miniate we have is C.250.000 bags for the next j
Santos crop, and 3.500,000 to 4.000.1 KM bags I
for tb? next Rio crop. Tiwse estir.iE.tes do not, |
it is true, inrlude any possible carry ovt ;\u25a0 from
The prc*eut bumper crop, but inasmuch as it
wm« to us that about 14.000.0j0 bags Santos,
and about 4.*Ki0.000 bags Itio \u25a0will reach shlp
; I'lng ports during the current rrop year (which
ilguros ar* the inuxliaunj quantities reported to
\u25a0 us by reliable correßj>ond«ntß to have been
|irv^uc*d> we do uot believe that any material
•juantity nt coffee wIU be carried In tbe in
terior of Brazil Into the next crop season."

Kew .York ;. Cotton Market . •/ ,
NEW YORK, April ' 20.-^-Hutton's wire says:
"The cotton : market \u25a0 opened steady,"- about nn
\u25a0 changed, with trading . fairly 'active, y The ; chief
news was reports of cold weather ! for the night
and over the southwest. " The weekly figures are
considered - bullish as vto spinners',^takings, i the
latter being 285,000 bales, as against 735,000
same day last, year. ' While •: the market looks
strong, it . takes steady -, buying ; to keep •; it up
and tbe short interest is small. >:'.\u25a0'",:
- "The ; abnormally cold weather .* in \u25a0 the ' cotton
J)elt for . the last three : weeks and - the :.' drought
in Texas has given the new crop such, a backset
that the crop is bound to be a late one and the
outlook for the new crop | is ; anything | but favor
able. As \u25a0 a big crop will .. be • necessary \ next
neason, this greater ( uncertainty \u25a0 attending ' the
Texas crop " is placing ; the ! market In ; the hand
of \u25a0 the bull ; interests and it Is likely ! to , give : us
a broader market for some time ; to- come.' 1 '

THE STOCK MARKET
Mining „ Stocks " Close' the Week Firm.
' Local Securities Still Dull
The week closed firm as far as* mining stocks
; were concerned, ' though * the volume of business
was ;• not large. * The firmness and •\u25a0 increased
business in I the Comstocks Is not explained, but
tbe strength \u25a0, In the southern Nevadas U said
to be . due to the receipt of buying orders from
people .. who \u25a0 believe '- that the Goidneld labor
trouble will soon be settled. At any rate,
there . . were more - buying than ; selling orders
on \u25a0 the market yesterday. *
There was nothing new in local securities.
Most of the transactions, were In bonds, while
shares 'were neglected. There were no fluc
tuations worthy, of note..' illll Valley and
Mount Tamalpals railway 5 per cent bonds
were \u25a0 ex-coupon of $2.50.
Oil stocks ex-dividend yesterday: -Union, 75c:
United Petroleum, $1.35. The Sunset Monarch
assessment of 10c was delinquent. "*•.
