TRADE REPORT  

Sydney.  

The oversea trade of New South Wales for the  

first month of this year took decided turn in  

the right direction- The imports amounted to  

£2,483,856, or decrease of £205,397, as com-  

pared with the previous January; while the ex-  

ports totalled £ 3,020,637, an increase of £331,385,  

and this with gold shipments on £ 85,954, as compared with £346,220  

for the corresponding month last year. This looks as if the balance  

of trade is turning in our favour again.  

Government expenditure has been heavy, and money will have to  

be obtained from outside sources to finance these committments, but  

with our wool and wheat harvests suitably marketed and good prices  

obtained, the stringency in the money market should become less  

marked. That the general community is better off than it was a.  

year ago, despite the somewhat less propitious season, is demon-  

strated by the fact that the total savings bank deposits in this State  

at the close of last year represented £28,372,000, or an increase of  

over £3,000,000 on the twelve months, while the number of depositors  

604,000, or an increase of 60,000 on the year- Such figures must tell  

their own tales-  

The Sydney wool market has passed through another quiet week- In  

the absence of auction sales, prices cannot be said to have undergone  

any alteration during the week, although there has been an under-  

current of strength in values, and for the little wool available there  

are plenty of buyers- The shortage in our production this season con-  

tinues just as pronounced, andi by the end of the wool year (June 30th),  

the deficit for this State will doubtless be well over 110,000 bales-  

The arrivals into Sydney by rail to date have represented 586,190  

bales, or 110,174 bales less than last year; while the arrivals by boats  

have, been 69,917 bales, or 11,994 bales less; making total shrinkage  

for New South Wales to date 122,168 bales- The Victorian shrinkage  

is placed at 121,294 bales, giving combined deficit for the two States  

of 243,462 bales-  

The catalogues so far this season have amounted to 622,616 bales,  

of which 571,422 bales have been placed at auction. Adding private  

transactions, the sales have totalled 615,997 bales- Gur exports have  

amounted to 654,589 bales, or some 30,136 bales less than for the cor-  

responding period last year- The chief operators in our market this  

season have been (1) Prance, (2) Germany, (3) United Kingdom-  

Firm conditions have prevailed in the local wheat market during  

the week, especially for parcels guaranteed prompt delivery, for  

which shippers have been willing to give 3/8 per bushel Sydney, and  

in some cases higher- Holders, however, have not been free sellers,  

continuing in the belief that the future is going to see higher prices-  

London buyers for Australian cargoes have been purchasing more  

freely of late, at prices ranging from 37/9 per quarter up to 38/0,  

according to date of shipment, and destinations- Prices for "futures”  

in the Liverpool "option” market and the Chicago "pit” have stiffened  

slightly on the week- The continuance of the war between the Balkan  

States and Turkey remains factor of strength in the world’s wheat  

market- Shippers here have been still greatly harassed by the delay  

in getting their wheat to Sydney, and the stackings on country stations  

have now grown to 4,690,296 bags, or over 1,000,000 bags in excess of  

the stackings at the corresponding date last year- The market for  

later deliveries here seems distinctly stronger, parcel for April to  

September delivery being sold at up to 3/10% per bushel-  

Regarding the market for general produce, the week has been  

productive of no alteration in prices for butter- slight shortage of  

supplies in Victoria, and some small improvement in London quota-  

tions tended to stimulate the demand for choicest makes in Sydney,  

which have moved out readily at 96/- per cwt- Bacon and hams have  

continued in active request, with stock still short and prices very  

firm- Forage lines have ruled quiet, but values have kept steady.  

Trade in the import markets has been well up to the average in most  

directions- The Lenten demand for tinned and salt fish has now  

been practically catered for, and it has absorbed the bulk of spot  

supplies, especially of salt fish- The distributing trade in general gro-  

ceries has also been brisk- Heavy metals have ruled rather quiet  

though. Number 10 German and American black wire has advanced  

to £9 per ton on account of its scarcity- Oils have been quiet, with  

linseed easier in tone- The chief feature of the jute market has been  

the run on bran bags, supplies of which have evidently fallen below  

requirements. At the present time holders demand 7/6 for spot, and  

nearly- as much for the incoming. Cornsacks have kept quiet, but  

there |ome inquiry for wool packs for Queensland-
