FINANCE AND COMMERCE..
EVENING TELKaRAPH OFFICE, I
Friday, April %, 1870,

The dullness noted in monetary circles during
the week still continues, and there are few
symptoms of improvement in any direction.
Business men are operating with extreme eau
ton in view of the uncertainty which surrounds
the future both of finance and trade, and the
effect is very perceptible in the loan market.
The amount of strictly frst-class commercial
paper was never smaller at this period of the
year, and this feature is not confined to this
market alone. The rates as q matter of course
are easy to borrowers, and almost nominal.
The Gold market is fairly active, but the pre-
MUM is weak, opening at 1l3 and declining TO
1929. Sales about noon at 1121S.
In United States securities the transactions
are light and prices have declined in sympathy
with the downward course of god.
There was slight revival of the business at
the Stock Board to-day and prices were stronger.
City skies sold at 1929 for the new certificates.
Reading Railroad was in good demand, with
sales at 4956@4969. Pennsylvania Railroad
was steady, and sold at 5S14@5S3s Sales of
Camden and Amboy at 11915; Minehill at $50;
Lehigh Valley at 56 Northern Central at 4715,
Oil Creek and Allegheny sold freely at Az.
Miscellaneous stocks move slowly, the only
sales being Hestonville Railway at 13. The
balance of the list is dull, but steady.

with a view of repairing her, bat she was
found to be unfit for use, and was sold to her
former owner for small sum. He stripped
her and let her remain on the dock, and in
short time she was libelled by the crew for
wages. Appraisers we're appointed to name
her value, and they reported that she was not
worth anything. Being now on the Marshals

that she should be removed, and as the

use one or more torpedoes, and blow her to
