The Money Harket presents new features what
ever and our remarks of yesterday will apply to-day
The New York Stock IN arket this morning opened
with considerable rmness. and the prices of stocks
were zen orally higher than at the close last evening
The for;ueg manipulators of Erie were again pur-
chasers and advanced its price at II o'clock TO S45
European adyices received during the morning by
the Herman report decline in Erie of per cent. in
the London marx et which caused a sympathetic
feeling to exist on the street in New York, and
shortly afterwards it sold at S3s; the speculative
tendency however, soon overcame the decline, and
at one O'Clock it to s4s and at latest sdvices
was selling at 85l4, with preponderanee of pus-
chasers and great activity in the whole market.
For long time past Erie has been looked upon as
the standard of the market. and its buoyancy has
given an impetus to several other stocks the list
Michigan Southern for instance, opened at 691I. and
steadily advanced to at the Close many lots chang
highlands during the day. Reading. in like manner
rose to lO after being 100 early in the morning. The
speculation in Hudson River R. R.was small compared
with that in other securities yet its price remainedrm
amount what they have ever been before is in tsefa
sufficient guarantee for its present figure while the
contrary the falling off in the receipts OF the Fort
Wayne and Northwestern roads their prices "
be maintained principally by the tone of the general
market and the prices of these stocks haze been
barely kept up during the day. Fort Wayne s>en
closing Is below its early rate.
Tennessee and Missouri bonds without change,
and attracted but little attention during the day.
There were no transactions recorded in Virginias
North Cardinals, however, were firm, and better
feeling being manifested with regard to them, they
advanced to rs. with but small amounts offering.
All classes OF Government securities were steady,
and without pereeptihe change. European quota
tions also the same as received by previous
advices.
Gold was steady at 49, and in fair demand but the
amounts on hand we're moro than sufficient for ne
cessities, and holders willing to pay six and
even seven per cent. for having it carried.
Money is still active and somewhat scarce to gen.
eral borrowers. The rate of interest call loans
mains per cent.
The New York bank statement is less unfavorabIe
than was reported early this morning. The legal
tenders show decline Of S. 1925 the loans de-
cline So Of y and the deposits pc decline of So
So 9O5a2 in consequence of the government sales of
gold during the past week. The following are the

Europe. The market is glutted, and the season of
1866 promises to sweep much Of the profits of past
years. The fiuetuaton and decline in dry goods
since November have already made serious inroads
upon the capital of jobbers. and the end has yet
been reached: The warehouses are full OF bonded
goods and this too, after all the orders which could
be put aside have been Cancelled, and large amount
of goods refused being out of time or not equal to
samples.
