The New York Post of Saturday evening says:
The chief points of interest in Wall street are the
general revival of business, the continued and in
creasing ease in money, and the irmness OF Govern
ment securities notwithstanding the exaggerated
reports industrousy circulated relative to the return
of Five-Twenty bonds from Europe.
The loan market is easy and active at ba6 per cent.
The accumulation of loanable capital continues and
commercial paper passes freely at 6ta7 for the highest
grades and at Tag for less choice names.
The stock market is dull. Governments are strong,
especially the compound interest notes, which have
advanced per cent. since yesterday. The follow!
ing were the quotations June 1864, llOs; July,
llOl; August, 1895 October, 1885; December,
1915 May, 1865, 1856 August, 1893 September
1903! October, 1923.
Seyen.thirtes are also active, and have risen to
1908. The gold bearing bonds have recovered from
their recent depression. Old Fivetwenties have
gone up to 1881, and for coupons of 1865, lO4t is
bid.
Railroad shares are dropping, especially Erie,
which there is strong disposition to sell.
For gold this afternoon, the following were the
quotations 1890, 1861; IL, l26; 10, 1861; 1890,
i26; l. 1861 100, 1861; ., 1863.
