FINANCIAL AND CONNER GAL
SATURDAY, Jan. 1875 p. M.

SATURDAY, Jan. 12-6 p. M.
The money market is without change; money is
abundant, and the list of names that can be sold
appears to be gradually increasing. Foreign ex-
change closed frmer, with moderate inquiry.
Stocks opened with considerable strength and
at the commencement of business higher prices
were obtained for nearly every description of Sc
curity. At the close of the morning session, how
ever, the market gave way somewhat; in the after
noon things were rather lower, and closed dull.
The market Is not much affected by the political
events of the day. The return of the Star of the
West, and the probable Developments which may
result therefrom seem TO be viewed with considera
BILE indifference by operators. The opinion prevails
in some quarters that the pending political troubles
are going TO be settled in q few days; some
purchases are based on this expectation. How
ever, whether the disputes Of the day are compro-
missed or not, the Stock Exchange promises to
continue fairly active. United States stocks Of
all kinds rose on the appointment Of Mr.. Dix to
the Treasury; State stocks fell of. The specula-
tive railroad list shows but little variation from
