WEEKLY REVIEW.
GALVESTON, TEXAS, I
Friday Evening, Oct. 22,1875. f
The business of the past week lias not been
equal to expectations, but a fair trade baa
tram pired on orders. 1? the matter of valnes
a decline of *®*c. on bacon, aud a still
downward tendency manifest, is the most im-
portant ch»nge that has occurred. Bagging
it *c. lower, but the demand has been brisk
at the reduction. CofTee is drooping. Stocks
are larger, and dealers being well supplied,
importers are compelled to await the revival
of the interior den and. Proscriptive rail-
road tariffs baulked a movement of supplies
for the northern portion of the tttate which
had already begun, and the roundabout roufe
by rail from New York brought coffee to
Texas for lees than it would b3 transported
for hence to the same points.
Wool has come forward more freely this
week and brought better prices. Hides have
also been Arm. Now) pecans were expected,
but have not come forward in any quantity
this week. The highest figure offered for an
odd package or two was 10c , but no sales
transpired.
The cotton market has been fairly active,
but at figures which were ledueed early in
the week and have not yet recovered, al
though closing steady. The attitnde of the
governing markets has been more encourag-
ing during the pant two daya, and it may be
th*t the partial revival of speculative feel-
ing will sustain the improvement.
In local money matters there is a little im-
provement perceptible, but, while there is a
stock of nearly fifty thousand bales of cotton
on hand, no Important relaxation is antici-
pated.
Gold has ranged downward, and closed in
New York a'- 115*.', against 117 at the close of
last week.
Sterling rallied at the close, and the ad-
vance in New York to-day was marked.
The advance of the rate of the B»nk of
England to 4 per cent, from 3* was anticipat-
ed, but the continued daily decrease of specie
in its vaults provokes some comment.
The weather during the week has been high-
ly favorable for the cotton crop. The slight
frost in the northern portion of the State did
no damage. The receipts continue larg*, but
the movement may be retarded this week by
the difficulty in hauling to the railroads. The
September storm destroyed immense quanti-
ties of timber, and many of the roads in the
lower country are impassable in consequence
of the trees that have fallen across them.
Picking is being pushed vigorously, and more
cheering accounts come from those sections
which suffered from the wind and rains last
month.
A general revival of trade is looked for as
soon as the present stringency in money
matters subsides and the proceeds of crops
can be utilized. For the present consumers
are confining their purchases to immediate
necessities, and interior merchants are only
keeping up their stocks accordingly.
