In relation to the New York Money m az
ket, the Times of Monday says:
I'm the Money market healthy improve
ment has taken place from the favorable
turn in general business and the en- ployment
afforded by the Government Loan. The pro-
ceeds OF the latter, while remaining for the
most part in this city, the common center
not only for disbursements of the Govern
ment, but the purchases and payments of
government contractors, have changed Or
dinary and hitherto dull channels of indi-
vidual deposits and country Bank balances,
and IN this way brought up the general price
OF Money in the open market to 601i per
cent. This is surely no cause of regret,
since the whole tendency of the Government
negotiation has been TO give a new start 10
the wheels of business, and thus to encourage
both borrower and lender"
