Weekly Review of t1»e General mar-
kets— Cotton — Lumber, Etc.
News Office, April IS.—A fair trade wa« done
among wholesalers during the past week, while
commission men reported a moderate movement
,n most lines of goods. On Wednesday bacon was
a Ivauced and another advance of ^c. was
made on Saturday. On Thursday quotations for
breakfast bacon and hums were advanced. Corn
advanced the same day, and since that date has
remained steady at the advance. The market at
pre-ent is fairlj' supplied for all local wants.though
stocks are not large. Oats remained steady and un-
changed until yesterday, when heavy receipts of
Stale ru'-.t proof caused a break iu prices, and
from 69<t£70c. on track quotations fell to 64(£,67c.,
wirh sales probably oelow 64c. To-dny the market,
was quiet and very dull, with nothing doing, so
far a- could be learned, except in a retail way. Flour
is lo ver for triple extra and patent, with choice,
family an : fancy a:, last week's quotations Bran is
quoted 5c. lower from! he mills, at §1 35 per 100 lbs
Drugs have b c-n in fair demand, and prices are
comparatively steady. A fe v changes have been
made in the quotations thi week. Lemons were
quoted firmer and prices advanced on Thursday
and Friday, but to-day the market is easier, with
g od -tock on ha <d. Oranges are steady at $5 50
@6 00 per box. O ions are in moderate supply
for Nor.hem at §5 00 per barrel, w hile Bermuda, iu
crates, are quoted $3 00©3 25. New onions are
quoted at $4 50 per barrel. Eggs were easy ettrly
iu the week, but on F.iday and S aturday prices
advanced sharply, owing to light receipts. Yes-
terday prices declined, followed by large receipts
and a further :decline to-day. Pou.try has been
irregular, and the market is hard to quote correct-
ly, there having been sales during the past weeJC
at prices ranging from $3 00 to $0 00 for chickens,
and $8 00 to $15 00 for tuikeys. The price is gov-
erned entirely by supply, and light or heavy re-
ceipts cause sharp fluctuations in prices from day
to day. Sales were reported to-day at $3 75
<&4 00, ag.tiust SG paid for the only
coop offering yesterday. Potatoes are somewhat
irregular and unsettled, closing at $4 25 per barrel
for Western peach blows and $6 50 for new pota-
toes. Sugar is firm at an advance made on Thurs-
day last. Staple groceries are steady.
Cotton on the ?rot ruled dull aud quiet, but
sleady to-day. Wilmington and Boston each ad-
vanced quo.avious }£e. Other spot markets show
no cha-ige in quotations. Futures at Liverpool
opened steady at yesterday's quotations, ad-
vanced a point on most of the months, but closed
dull and easier with the advance lost, and all
months at yesterday's figures. Futures at New
Y •: k opened steady, with April 1 point higher,
and other months 1@4 points lower, ruled dull but
steady, and closed quiet, with April at the opening
figures aud other mon?hs 2<&5 points lewer than
last evening. The r*Ci ipts at the p irts were 3943
bales, against 4869bales on the same day last year
—a decrease of 926 bales. Manchester reported
yarns aud fabrics qu atbut^teady. Fall River re-
pouted print cloths very firm at last week's quota-
tions.

Exchange—The Stock IHarket—Gov-
ernment Bond*—Cotton, Etc.
[Special Correspondence of The News.l
New York, April 14.—Exchange ou London is
called a fraction steadier, though the rates are not
changed.
.Stocks down to 1:30 o'clock p. m. were pretty
eady, though in the forenoou they were lower
than yesterday.
Among conservative bouses here there is a belief
that the large absorption of fir-t-elass stocks that
has beeu lately witnessed, for home and foreign
investment, will soon make itself felt in a much
higher market for that. cla*s of securities, inas-
much as these stocks have been taken out of thf
market, and there is less material either for a natu;
ral decline or for the wreckers to work on.
United States 5s were sti'l lower; ales $10,000
,t 102. The 4s sold at 120% and 4Us at 116^. Both
the latter were quoted by the first National as
strong.
The St. Paul and Milwaukee is said to be borrow-
ing cars to meet its large passenger t raffic, though
the equipment has been increased $5,000,000 within
a year. The present year is represented by an
officer as the most prosperous in the history of the
road.
Cotton holds its own and more. Some of the bulls
oppose a further material advance just at present,
as our prices for spot, are now '-qua! to 7V£d. at
Liverpool, whereas that market is only 6 11-16J.
She has yet to rise considerablv before she meets
our present figures, but it is fell she must, though
hor increasing stocks for the time being: may delay
it. Nevertheless the foreign market is extremely
sensitive, as is evident from the private cables of
inquiry here.
TEXAS STATE ITEMS.

progressing very satisfactorily in this county,
and judging from the present outlook the crop

fect: is twelve and one-half ft*et in height by

BEE.
Correspondence of Free Press: During a res-
idence of almost a 'juarter of a ceuturv in Bee
county, the writer has never, at this season of
the year, seen the prospects for good crops bet-
ter than at the present time. Corn and cotton
crops are very promising, and the Irish potato
crop, now about made, has never been ex-
celled. atnl everybody who has tried has good
gardens Mr. Henry Seeligson, of Galves-
ton, is 011 a visit to his ranch in this county.
His health has improved very much while
here, and he expresses himself as well pleased
with his ranch prospects.

Mr. Ilarrigan was chased into his house by a

animal, succeeded in killing it in his room.

Columbus Citizen: Thursday evening, as Mr.
E. C. Sronce drove his team into the -river to
water them, one of them became very restive
and Mr. Sronce, who had several of his chil-
dr. n with him in a hack, called to a negro boy
at the ferry to assist bim. The negro came
promptly, and got the children out of the hack,
as the horse continued to rear and plunge.
Finally, getting into deep water, the horse
was drowned. lie was brought ashore, but
was not revived. There was only slight dam-
age to the hack and harness "Last Friday
night burglars broke into the grocery estab-
Hshoient of Mr. J. F. Sandmeyer, corner of
Spring and Bowie streets, and succeeded in se-
curing about $175. They prized open the
front door with a spade and two axes. The
latter were probably brought along to break
open the safe. The burglars appeared to be in
a hurey, and did not minutely examine the
money-drawers, leaving one of them un-
touched.

EL PASO.
Times: About fifty miles east of Yslota are
situated what are said to be the finest salt
lakes and beds in the world. One of these
lakes alone contaids 150,000 square yards of
pure salt, which has an average depth of
eight inches. The supply is inexhaustible, as
an evidence of which it is only necessory to
state that for the hist fifty years the whole of
this section of country and almost the entire
State of Chihuahua havo Le-en supplied from
these lakes. Mexicans v. ith trains of from five
to fifty wagons making periodical trips to
them, aud returning loaded with salt. This
salt is said to be the finest in the world for
fluxing and other purposes in mining. The
troubles which occurred here some years ago,
and in which Cardis, Judge Howard and
others lost their lives, arose from disputes
over these lakes. These troubles, however,
have been amicably settled.
