New YORK, Dec. 1.-THE Commercial |
money article contains the following: Dur |
ing the presentations the sub Treasury will |
pay out a considerable amount of currency.
as interest upon the second issue of 7 80 |
notes. at the same time the issues of |
coupons currency continue to augment |
at the rate of 100000 dollars for issue, |
so long as any portion of the 300000,000 |
debts authorized remains unissued, there |
can be no scarcity of currency beyond a |
few days rest. The cause of apprehension |
to the currency is not in prospective search |
ty Of money, but in prevailing indisposi- |
ton to lend, and there is no anticipation of |
panic, yet that is regarded as a contingent |
cy that may be realized any day, and eve |

clinatiOn to direct commercial paper, must |

measures, for gaining that end..excites more |
fears than they allay. To-day there is an |
ample supply of money on Call Loan at 7 |
per cent. This is somewhat remarkable, |
considering the Treasury is still withdraw |
ing large amounts of currency from circula- |
ton by selling gold and that the banks are |
renting currency West, and circumstances
can only be accounted for upon the obvious |
fact that while a large amount of bank debts |
now maturing, there is very little "distly"
at present prime bills at 6d)7 per cent, only |
very select names going at lower figures. |
Business at the stock exchange is very dull. |
