FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,

A bill Is about to be submitted TO Congress by
the Union Pacific Railway Company Eastern
Dlvsion) asking Government aid, upon equal
Terms with the Union and the Central Pacific
Railroads, to enable 1t to extend Its work To the
Pacific, via New Mexico and Arizona, and also
to connect with the Union Pacific Railroad via
Denver, as now required by law.
The Union Pacific Railroad eastern divislon),
running from st. Louis, via Kansas City, Is now
completed 10 Fort Wallace, 500 miles. The local
trade of this Road will be greater than that of the
other Pacific Roads, on account of the heathful
climate, productive soil, the abundance of water
and timber, and the rich and far extending mines
OF coal, Iron and copper. More towns have been
located on this route, which secures to the road
q good local traffic; extensive coal deposits have
been discovered along the proposed route Of this
Road, near Fort Union, extending through n
range of sixty miles The revenues yielded by
the completed part are already much beyond the
antcipations Of the Company, and il continued
VIII enable them to prepare for the payment of
the 30 year Bonds, long before the maturity.
The demand for money Is still beyond the sup
ply AS this strlngencv is caused by the APP
proaching quarterly exhibit by the banks, an
easy money market Is anticipated by I'll after the
9Th inst. The demand for money on bond and mort
gage will no doubt be pretty well supplied with
in the next 80 or go days, as pretty large amount
will be brought into the market; the high pre-
miums offered have induced many to withdraw
from other investments.
State and Railroad bonds arc pretty firmly held.
City Loan Is offered at par and interest. No
City Bank stock Is offered. U. 3. Securities arc
dull, and little lower; very little inquired for AS
investment, the transactions are more of a spec
ulative character.
