MONETARY.

---.. SATURDAY EvEESo, May q.
In genera finances the most prominent fea-
tu1es Of the past week have been the increased
concentration Of money in New York, the re-
vlvsl OF exports Of gold, and the usual flights
oi ranoEs from Washington in regard to the
passage OF Some Kind Of 4 funding bill. Tha
ant of these circumstances would bave ten
aeEcy 70 cause another speculative 1iae In
stocks, and the second to adyanca the price Of
Go!d and bonds, and such We the tendency Of
thc markets until Yesterday, when i larRe
but temporary supply Of sterling exchange
vas thrown upon the SeW Tork market, and
caused speculation, for the present, to ttke
the downward turn. The result is that both
gold and bonds cloee 1t Just about the same
two past weeks.
In local dnanees there has been IN sctivity
that Is little unusu1l At 10 Late q period n

on the declins. The dzlin of currency to tho
country for two weeks has been heavy, and the
olders to-day from country banks show that
the produce movement may b expected to
continue some time yet.
Tbs demand foE currency WAS such that one
bank ordered s1o0. 900 from New York lew
days ago, and received that amount By express
to-day. 4 larger amount was also received
from ST. Louis today to buy New Iork e1-
change. These, and some small amounts
from other directions, have largely increased
sle stock Of currency in the market,
ard az the searcity Of currency was
one Of the causea that New York
exchange had been selling below par in this
market, the result has been IN advance IN e.
change. Until within day Or two the great
bulk Of .he currency movement hss been tow1rd
the corn and catsle-raising districts, and while
the greatest proportion goes in that direction,
yet there is N increase Of shipments to tho
Theat-Faising diatzicta Of Wisconsin, Northern
