OF one per cent. was paid for its use unIil to-
morrow; latter, however. from three TO i've per
cent was paid for carry ing. The combination
operating + higher premium are met with
free sales at l3j, believed TO be made for the
account of the government.
The money market Is abundantly supplied
Rates at the banks are six aud seven per cent,
although a large number of loans by private
Tenders are made at five per cent; these are
mostly on pledge of government bonds. Ihls
extreme abundance of money ls partially
accounted for By the limited demand from stock
brokers' who are as a rule indispOsed 10 engage

dent to the Erie trouble continue. A more
active business is reported in commercial paper,
although the supply is as yet greatly IN excess
