Fix this textTRADE REPORT
Fix this textSydney.
Fix this textThe oversea trade of New South Wales for the
Fix this textfirst month of this year took a decided turn in
Fix this textthe right direction- The imports amounted to
Fix this text£2,483,856, or a decrease of £205,397, as com-
Fix this textpared with the previous January; while the ex-
Fix this textports totalled £ 3,020,637, an increase of £331,385,
Fix this textand this with gold shipments on £ 85,954, as compared with £346,220
Fix this textfor the corresponding month last year. This looks as if the balance
Fix this textof trade is turning in our favour again.
Fix this textGovernment expenditure has been heavy, and money will have to
Fix this textbe obtained from outside sources to finance these committments, but
Fix this textwith our wool and wheat harvests suitably marketed and good prices
Fix this textobtained, the stringency in the money market should become less
Fix this textmarked. That the general community is better off than it was a.
Fix this textyear ago, despite the somewhat less propitious season, is demon-
Fix this textstrated by the fact that the total savings bank deposits in this State
Fix this textat the close of last year represented £28,372,000, or an increase of
Fix this textover £3,000,000 on the twelve months, while the number of depositors
Fix this text604,000, or an increase of 60,000 on the year- Such figures must tell
Fix this texttheir own tales-
Fix this textThe Sydney wool market has passed through another quiet week- In
Fix this textthe absence of auction sales, prices cannot be said to have undergone
Fix this textany alteration during the week, although there has been an under-
Fix this textcurrent of strength in values, and for the little wool available there
Fix this textare plenty of buyers- The shortage in our production this season con-
Fix this texttinues just as pronounced, andi by the end of the wool year (June 30th),
Fix this textthe deficit for this State will doubtless be well over 110,000 bales-
Fix this textThe arrivals into Sydney by rail to date have represented 586,190
Fix this textbales, or 110,174 bales less than last year; while the arrivals by boats
Fix this texthave, been 69,917 bales, or 11,994 bales less; making a total shrinkage
Fix this textfor New South Wales to date 122,168 bales- The Victorian shrinkage
Fix this textis placed at 121,294 bales, giving a combined deficit for the two States
Fix this textof 243,462 bales-
Fix this textThe catalogues so far this season have amounted to 622,616 bales,
Fix this textof which 571,422 bales have been placed at auction. Adding private
Fix this texttransactions, the sales have totalled 615,997 bales- Gur exports have
Fix this textamounted to 654,589 bales, or some 30,136 bales less than for the cor-
Fix this textresponding period last year- The chief operators in our market this
Fix this textseason have been (1) Prance, (2) Germany, (3) United Kingdom-
Fix this textFirm conditions have prevailed in the local wheat market during
Fix this textthe week, especially for parcels guaranteed prompt delivery, for
Fix this textwhich shippers have been willing to give 3/8 per bushel Sydney, and
Fix this textin some cases higher- Holders, however, have not been free sellers,
Fix this textcontinuing in the belief that the future is going to see higher prices-
Fix this textLondon buyers for Australian cargoes have been purchasing more
Fix this textfreely of late, at prices ranging from 37/9 per quarter up to 38/0,
Fix this textaccording to date of shipment, and destinations- Prices for "futures”
Fix this textin the Liverpool "option” market and the Chicago "pit” have stiffened
Fix this textslightly on the week- The continuance of the war between the Balkan
Fix this textStates and Turkey remains a factor of strength in the world’s wheat
Fix this textmarket- Shippers here have been still greatly harassed by the delay
Fix this textin getting their wheat to Sydney, and the stackings on country stations
Fix this texthave now grown to 4,690,296 bags, or over 1,000,000 bags in excess of
Fix this textthe stackings at the corresponding date last year- The market for
Fix this textlater deliveries here seems distinctly stronger, a parcel for April to
Fix this textSeptember delivery being sold at up to 3/10% per bushel-
Fix this textRegarding the market for general produce, the week has been
Fix this textproductive of no alteration in prices for butter- A slight shortage of
Fix this textsupplies in Victoria, and some small improvement in London quota-
Fix this texttions tended to stimulate the demand for choicest makes in Sydney,
Fix this textwhich have moved out readily at 96/- per cwt- Bacon and hams have
Fix this textcontinued in active request, with stock still short and prices very
Fix this textfirm- Forage lines have ruled quiet, but values have kept steady.
Fix this textTrade in the import markets has been well up to the average in most
Fix this textdirections- The Lenten demand for tinned and salt fish has now
Fix this textbeen practically catered for, and it has absorbed the bulk of spot
Fix this textsupplies, especially of salt fish- The distributing trade in general gro-
Fix this textceries has also been brisk- Heavy metals have ruled rather quiet
Fix this textthough. Number 10 German and American black wire has advanced
Fix this textto £9 per ton on account of its scarcity- Oils have been quiet, with
Fix this textlinseed easier in tone- The chief feature of the jute market has been
Fix this textthe run on bran bags, supplies of which have evidently fallen below
Fix this textrequirements. At the present time holders demand 7/6 for spot, and
Fix this textnearly- as much for the incoming. Cornsacks have kept quiet, but
Fix this textthere |ome inquiry for wool packs for Queensland-
Fix this textIt's easy and takes two shakes of a lamb's tail!
