Money is abundantly easy In Wall street at : Z per
cent call mixed coaterals and sx per cent with
exceptions at nve on sovernments, while rst GLASS
commercial paper IL freely taken at seven par
cent discount, and in some instances at half
par cent below this rate. The drain Of currency
from the interior is still going forward and the
Western journals report that the bankers In that section
are sending currency to New York daily while money
Is coming in from the country to the local financial
tres, and bank balances increasing Al Boston tho
money market is moderately oasy at per cent gov
ernment coaterals and a. 6x per cent for hst class
commercial paper. N.
Notwithstanding the present and prospective mono
tary case at this centre, the condition Of tho railway
share market shows that speculation for rise . with
out strength tho Stock Exchange and the prolonged
duucss and heaviness which have been experienced
extremely dscouraging to the holders Of securities
Hence at every slight rally there anx-
ious sellers, few daring TO trust the market
for more than tring advance. Most OF tho operators
are bears and act according to their convictions, whle
the remainder arc bulls intent upon making very short
turns The decline Of to-day is the natural reaction Of
a weakly supported market from the rso which took
place the end Of last week, and will be similarly
followed by another upward reaction and another
relapse Evidently the much talked Of spring rise has
not yet come, and tho bulls once more disappointed
