Late in the day the market was strong upon oil
descriptions of Government stocks. The demand
from investors is on the increase, and the out-oi-
town orders larger than for time. The advance
i'm 2Os of 1862 is greatest and at the close the lead
ing holders were firm. Railway shares closed IN moro
demand. Commercial paper is more salable, anu we
hear of cases where dry goods houses have cleared
the market of their obligations. The payments OF
dry goods houses are made with unexpected prompt
ness.
Money is abundant at per cent on call upon pi1eo
collaterals. Commercial paper passes more realily'
but rates are unchanged The best IS quoted ut a@V
and second grade at l0Q12 per cent.
Congress shows no appearance Of hasty fnan-
cal legislation, and nothing will be done until otter
the holidays Contraction is for the moment as lead
AZ impeachment and the Treasury has oil it en- do
in meeting its maturing obligations, without reluc-
ing the volume Of United States notes. AS Their are
still 1855 800 900 of 780s to be funded into godear-
ing stock, within the next seven months, IT inot
probable that the money market will be mnde srin-
gent until this task is accomplished The necessity
for an easy money market has never been gfatet
than now 80 far as funding short debt is concerned
On the 18th of January, 1868. the last coupons OF
the 1905 mature, when general desire will DO shown
TO fund them.
