| New YORK, June 26.-Money, as the day progressed
fell from gold to 5f9ct. currency. There is more
hopeful feeling in regard to the future prevalent the
street. Much reliance placed July interest and
dividends to relieve the market. In ordinary times
these would naturally restore permanent ease but the
large amount of currency locked up in the Treasury
is great barrier to easy and steady money Market
which is so essential to the business community Dis
counts dull and rates nominal. The purchase of one
million bonds to-day by Mr.. Van Dyck wilt be followed
by the sale of a million gold on Monday, which will
close operations of the Treasury in this line for the
fiscal year. The new policy of selling two millions
gold and buying two millions bonds per month will be
inaugurated Thursday next, with the purchase of
one million bonds, to be followed by the sale of one
million on the succeeding Thursday, and so on until
further notice The bank statement was favorably
ceived. Banks certainly in stronger position.
The contraction policy is plainly reflected in the fur
ther large decrease in loans.
