MONETARY.

OFFICE OF THE DAILY REPUBLICAN,
FRIDAY EVENING. January 10, 1888.
The commercial week closes this evening
with very little variation in the money mar
ket from our report of last Friday. Not
Outstanding the extent of the cotton move
ment and the sales Of sugar and mOlasses,
there ia still strong demand for money,
beyond the supply offered by the banks
and private capitalists. Good notes secured
nv solid collaterals are negotiated on the
street to q limited eXteEt at lDl3 38 cent
q month, and second-class at 2, OF more
onerous rates according to the exigencies of
the borrower. Mortgage notes are quoted
At l2615 % cent q annum, but only Al
securities can be done at the former rate.
Gold opened at l35A@l36, and after sell.
;ng up to 1877 closed at 136l@l364. The
market continued inanimate, with little or
no speculative feeling and only Il limited
cnstomhouse demand. The sales included
$1,000 early in the day at 1861; S250O and
$4,000 in three lots at 1876; $2500 at 1861;
$4,000 at 1861; $4,000 in two lots at 1869 and
i9T and $4,000 in three lots at 1877; also,
s4eOO in Mexican doubloons at 1854. Nothing
of any moment was reported in silver.
American halfdollars are quoted at 1910
1sl1. and Mexican dollars at 1879 in cur
rencv and l26D2 u cent premium in gold
Foreign exchange advanced under the
course Of the New York gold market about,
i ~ cent. The sales Of sterling included
$4,000 bill of lading at lat; el5OO and $4,000
at l471: $4,000 Mt l47}; fl200, $4,000, f2500,
and All additional amount at 14S4; and GS0O0
ut I4sJ6l4Sk. In most of these transactions
the bill of lading accompanied the bill. In
francs we noticed sales of 10000, $4,000,
100 600, and au additional sum of AL com.
merciai at s24; 10000, 100000, and 100 600
at S.SIl; and $4,000 first-class at 3.7s3,
Sterling may be quoted at l47s@l4s3 for Al
hill of fading and clear, and l50 for bank:
and francs al 3 S2t@3. Sc for AL commercial,
and S.76 for bank.
Domestic exchange was rather frmer, but
without any quotable improvement. The
hanks continued to check on New York at
n cent discount, at which they met a
fsir demand partly, no doubt, to remit
collections Of rents due on the LIST instant.
The sales of commercial included S25,000
New York sight at 1l-l6 discount; $40 600,
sl4 600, $40, 600, S50,000 and some smaller
sums at Z; $4,000, $4,000, and another
round sum at 1916; $4,000, $40, 900, and
$4,000 at 4; and $1,000 ten days at u.
We heard of no further sales of stocks.
The scarcity of money and the wide differ.
ence between buyers and sellers prevent any
movement. Quotations are mostly nominal.
CITY treasury notes ruled at still better
rates than yesterday. $4,000 large sold at IA
discount; $4,000 at l4t and some additional
sums at l4@l44, but the market is quoted at
l4@l5. The small bills rule at 2024; $4,000
sold at 2. State notes are quoted at 3489G
discount Bank of Louisiana notes have
been offered at soc. u dollar.
