MONEY AND STOCKS.
MoNEY-The stringency is very severe
to-day; call loans Sag per cent. gold,
and 7 per cent currency, with commits
sions of l-l6 to II per cent. Many bank
accounts were not made up until after
four O'Clock. The stringency OCCASION
ed general yielding of prices on stock
exchange. The banks are presenting
their 3 per cent. certificates for reIemp'
ton, and to day one institution drew
from the Treasury half million
in greenbacks. The currency balance
mt the close was about IS. .OOO,OOO.
