Financial.
New YORK, March 3.-The Commercial
says the stock market remains remarkably
quiet. The miscellaneous list is generally
weak, excepting Western Union Telegraph,
which rose "a, closing at Csc. Governments
are still strong and in good demand. The
| largeness of the current revenue has a
strong tendency to improve the Govern
ment bonds. G's of 1881 rose "a; 1905 are
| "a; 10.40's "a lower.
| Money is becoming gradually easier. The
| general rate Oh call among bankers is 7c.
Private bankers are lending at per cent,
on Government collaterals, and per cent
on other securities. There are rather more
| applications for discounts from the various
branches of merchants, especially from the
dry goods trade. The dry goods auctions
are supplying good amount of paper,
which is taken at SOLO per cent. The pros
pect is that tine supply of this class of paper
will largely exceed anything experienced
since 1860. The rates of discounts remain
unchanged.
Gold continues weak. The large sales OF
gold bought from the Government last
week produce an excess of supply over the
current demand, and the price this morn
ing touched 1885. The disbursements upon
1910 coupons are light, the total payments
on this account out of the sub-Treasury up
to the present time being only little over
one million dollars.
The shipment of specie to-day is very
light, being S6l,700 per the Allemania.-
The total TOR the week is 5,453. The eX-
ports of specie from this point during the
week have amounted to $75,453 The rates
of foreign exchange are nominal. Leading
drawers quote 60 days sterling at l0S56@
1881.
The FenInns.
The Commercials Washington special
says that the English Minister has protest
ed against the immunity enjoyed by the
Fenans, but the Government does not re-
gard the evidence as sufficient to warrant
interference.
