NEWS OFFICE, 1
Mosdav Evening. Oct. 23. is. ti. (
The concluding week of the month
,ind season begins with a moderate vol
umc of business doing in all wholesale
branches. The aggregate is barely
equal to hopes, but is fully sufficient to
leave dealers no spare time for discus-
sing the situation. Values of leading
commodities in the provision market
show no material deviation from the
figures quoted on Saturday.
A COMPLAINT AOAINST TIIF. CENTUM,
BAILUOAD.
Complaints of tlio delays 111 trans-
porting and delivering Galveston ship-
ments to points on the Central Road are
becoming more frequent every day. ,A
gentleman, writing to his partner iin
this city, from Hempstead, on the 14th
instant, says:
" I ll(i<l that St. Louis has the prefer-
ence on this line so long as the irregu-
larity of the shipments of freights con-
tinue on the Galveston, Houston and
Henderson Railroad and the Houston
and Texas Central Itailroad. There
can be no doubt but that this is at pre-
sent a great injury to Galveston. Mer-
chants who are disposed to patronize
our city are forced to buy in another
direction owing to the delays in getting
freight even here at Hempstead, only
ONB HUNDRED MILES KUOM GALVESTON,
merchandise is detained on the road
from eight to twelve days. Goods
shipped to on the 27tli September
did not reach him till the 5th of October.
He needs goods now, and I could have
sold him a nice little bill if there had
l>ecn any probability of the goods reach-
ing here by Saturday, (circus day). He
would not take the chances although
six davs intervene, and has ordered
from Houston. This is the only one
instance of many along this whole line
of railroad."
The stray told by the above corre-
spondent has been told and retold again
and again, but the officers of the road
complained of are either incapable or
nnwilling to remedy the evil. It is per-
haps more charitable to attribute the
continuation of the injustice to inca-
pacity and inefficiency, rather than to
any desire on the part of the company
to treat its best paying patrons unjustly.
If the latter be the case, and the offense
can be proven, there surely must be
some legal means of redress for the
sufferers.
The cotton market ruled quiet to-day,
sales reached 1600 bales at unchanged
prices.
Wool continues in fair demand, but
extreme quotations were not so easily
realized.
Hides are in brisk demand at extreme
figures. The New York Daily Bulletin
of the 17th, reports a strong market
with sales of 2700 Dry Texas at 19c.
less three months interest.
The cattle market showed weakness
to day in consequence of an oversup-
ply.
In the grain market a further ad-
vance in oats is the most salient fea-
ture to report. The supply on sale is
light, and the terms of several transac-
tions to arrive being suppressed, it is
impossible to give accurate quotatious.
On Saturday evening 41c. per bushel was
paid for sacked, but the purchase could
not have been duplicated to-day.
Stocks in store on speculation are held
at 00c. without takers. Liberal re-
ceipts are looked for within the next
few days when a more settled condi-
tion will obtain. In the meantime no
accurate quotations can be given.
COTTON.
The Liverpool spot market closed
firm, with sales of 14,000 bales, of
which 7H00 were American and 2000 for
export anil speculation. Arrivals ruled
quiet. The imports for the day were
only 1)00 bales, all from American
ports.
The New York spot market opened
weak and ruled dull, with sales of but
504 bales.
The New Orleans market closed firm
at+c. advance on Middling, with sales
of 0H00 bales.
The receipts at the outports for the
•lay aggregate 38,438 bales against
19,707 for the same day last week, and
20,490 for the corresponding period
last year.
The stock at all United States ports
to 475,529 bales, against 381,113 for the
same period last year.
In this market sales to the extent of
1006 bales transpired, distributed among
six brokerage firms. The tono of the
market was steady and the offerings
light. The Exchange made no altera-
tion in previous figures, and bulletined
the market as closing "quiet."
