Depressed The Bonds.
The Syndicated Profit on the Gold
Bonds Cut Off
New York, Dee 27 -The banking
firm in charge of the government bond
syndicate has sent out the following
notice to members :
"The action of the United States
Treasury on currency questions having
stopped progress iu tbe sale of bonds
for the accouut of the five per cent
bonds syndicate, and the eriod of
thirty days mentioned iu the notice of
November 2, having expired, the syn?
dicate is dissolved."
The agitation about currency reform
and the number of peculiar suggestions
made by certain government officials
and members of Congress, it is said,
has weakened the market for govern?
ment bonds generally and the price
for the new fives has in consequence
been depressed below the syndicate
figures.
The syndicate disposed of 35 per
cent, of tbe issue and the remaining 65
per cent, was divided among the mem?
bers.
Bradstreet's Report,
NEW YOBS, December 18 -Brad?
street's to-morrow will say : Geoeral
trade presents the usual holiday
characteristics. A majority of the
wholesale dealers and manufacturers are
beginning or have finished taking ac?
count of stock or arranging settlemeurs
for the new year. ' The main activity
has been for Christmas specialties iu
retail lines. The practical conclusion
of the holiday trade has brought about
a moderate reaction, and this empha?
sizes the dullness noted in preceding
weeks.
Jobbers claim the outlook for trade
during the late winter and early spring
?9 for very conservative buying. But
in some lines, notably, however, tex?
tiles, recent cold weather bas stimulated
sales, and reports from retailers West
and Sooth indicate that stocks are low,
almost beyond precedent. This is
taken as indicative of a better merchan?
dise trade ia the near future* than for
several years past. Travelling sales?
men, with few exceptions, are off tbe
road Merchants generally incline to
the view that 1895 promises a favorable
business, although, as indicated, opin?
ion is divided as to whether renewed
activity w 141 mark the early months of
the coming year or not.
Industries are shot down in many
instances to make repairs and take
s'ock. and owing to extreme low pri?es
for industrial staples the wage move?
ment tends downward. Quotations for
staple merchandise show much firmness,
with sugar, cotton, wheat, corn, steel,
naval stores, tobacco, tin and copper
practically unchanged in prices. Coffee
is depressed and there are rumors cf
contracts for iron and steel at a shade
under last week's quotations although
unconfirmed.
Southern cities uniformly report a
very quiet trade in jobbing lines.
Charleston, Savannah and Augusta re?
port collections slow, but at Nashville,
where merchants regard prospects for
spring business reasonably good, collec?
tions are fair. Manufacturers at At?
lanta are doing little and Chattanooga
jobbers likewise A moderately im?
proved demand for funds is announced
from Memphis and at New Orleans the
only gaiB is a better feeling in the rice
market. Galveston notes the excep?
tion with an improvement expected
shortly after January 1 and wholesale
merchants in nearly all lines sending
out travellers.
An effort is being made to collect
corn and other provisions in the South
to seud to the starving people in Ne?
braska. The railroads have offered
to haul all contributions free of charge.
A negro girl of Parksville, Edgefield
County, has confessed that she and a
number of other negroes were concern?
ed in a plot to burn the houses of the
white people of that neighborhood.
The papers io Alabama have entered
into an agreement not to publish the
sayings and doings of Reuben Kolb.
As Koib's organ at Birmingham is de?
funct what will the Captain now do for
free advertising ?
It is said that Robert Louis Steven?
son, whose death wa? recently reported,
made ?200,000 by his pen after he
went to Samoa He was paid $10 000
for bis newspaper letters from the south
seas
Now that the bicycle is reducing the
value of horses, it may be of interest to
koow that at a banquet in Newark,
N. J., the other day horse meat was
served :n half a dczeu different ways,
from soup to roast, and was much en?
joyed.
