FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.


MONDAY, Feb 1s-eP u
Tho railway share market was somewhat unsettled
this morning and without recovery from the extreme
decline Of Saturday. but during the afternoon It expe-
renced improvement The undertone Of the specula-
tion for rise, however, lacks nrmness owing to the
weakness Of the bulls and the ascendancy OF the bears
and not until the political and financial questions now
before Congress assume settled aspect is there
likely to be sufficiently strong demand for stocks to
form the basis OF substantial upward movement The
action OF the market IL at present feverish and
spssmodic, and Il b liable 10 relapse after every
1inng recovery The general impression, nevertheless
Is that as the current quotations stocks are cheap and
that within the next six months they will be much
higher but pending decided turn in the tide Of specu-
lation the prevailing disposition among those who are
unencumbered with securities to hammer the market
lower Hence there is large short interest outstand-
ing, but the power 10 profit by 1t is wanting.
There is no change to note in the rates for money,
the supply being ample at six per cent on railway col
laerals and five governments In the discount line
there considerable activity and the grade OF CON-
mercal paper passes at per The statement
OF the associated banks for the reflects the changes
occasioned by the sale OF yewenes OF the new issue
by the Treasury Some Of these have been bought by
the banks and are counted as loans equally with those
they have advanced upon but In either the result
has been drain Of currency into the Sub Treasury.
Hence the legal tender decreased 81 052
while the loans have increased So s62 50S The deposits
have decreased 81, owing mainly 70 the same
cause The specie shows a decrease OF ST. 364 63l
which is due to drafts for dues and the crcu
lation increase Of sl79 3O9 The csarngs for the
