Money was generally offered to the leading stool
commission houses to-day at per cent and seve
raj firms obtained all they wanted at s. Their,
was some shifting of loans at one time; but one
who had good collateral found difficulty in supply
ing himself at two p. NJ. at per cent. Until
either merchandise or stocks become very much
more active than they at present there can De
no advance in the rate of interest. Money is
pouring into Wall street from all parts OF the
country and the absorption of money by the con
version of currency into fve-twentes is inadequate
to consume the profits of dealers, contractors,
manufacturers and merchants.
Gold was 1871 "a this morning and 1867
at FIVE p M. Exchange sold at l4O l4O11,
these being about the extreme rates. There
is very little business in gold For the
time speculation in the staple seems to have
died out If we take Charleston, or suffer
substantial reverse, speculation will revive
again, and the crowd of gold gamblers
in William street will increase. Meanwhile there
is hardly any trade in bullion except for Custom
House purposes or export.
Business on the Stock Exchange this morning
was not active as might have been expected.
Yesterdays holiday and the approaching Sunday
have naturally operated to thin out the crowd of
spectators, and people are likely to wait till
Monday to renew their operations. The course of
prices was irregular at the first board. Harlem
rose per cent Prairie du Chen O. Illinois Central
u: Pacific, Galena and Fort Wayne were steady;
while on the other hand New York Central fell 2.
Eric Il, Erie preferred ~ Reading II, Southern
old ~, guaranteed !, Pittsburg 8, Rock Island
IL. and Toledo H. The sales were not large,
and there appeared to be no pressure of stocks
tor sale; but on the other hand there was no rush
to buy. Most Of the sales were reputed
to be for bear account, and many Of the purchases
for account Of shrewd operators who always wait
for dull day to buy. In governments and State
stocks the business done was very limited indeed.
At the close of the board the market was rather
irregular; but there appeared to be slight in.
crease in the orders to buy. Central however,
done as low as 1881, which seems low in COM
parson with Hudson River and Harlem. At the
P. NJ call there was an increase Of buyers, and
prices were 4 q per cent better all round. The
offerings Of the bears were eagerly taken. In the
afternoon there was again a downward turn on
most of the list. Harlem improved to l4lL, and
Galena, Prairie du Chen and Pittsburg were
steady; but Erie fell on 10 Central "a, Erie pre-.
fercd "a. Rock Island a and SO on throughout
the list. A large proportion Of the sales were sup
posed to be on bear account; the commission
brokers appeared to be picking up good deal of
stock at the decline. At the four p. NJ call the
market was steadier but dull. The following were
the closing quotations Of the day.-
