The Gold Room was comparatively quiet to-day,
and transactions in the precious metal devoid Of
excitement
GOLD HEAVY. LOWER AND Dull.
Indeed che speculative element OF Wall street
seems lacllned to abandon the gold market for tho
present and seek other fields OF operation. II would
not oe surprising II the Gold Room drfted into the
lur which prevailed q few weeks since, when the
price was IN the Vicinity Of 100. At present the
"bears" are afraid to sell below 115 and the bulls'
arc not disposed 70 buy. Hence restoration Of
equilibrium at the present figures. The earliest
price this morning was llo,.. based upon decline
In London to s0ix for nve-twenties, and also
upon the public debt statement showing the
government 10 be the actual owner OF only eighteen
millions OF the one hundred and TWO millions 10 the
Treasury. Bus the popular faith ls now against
higher gold, and other questions than that OF the
government balance determine the price Of the pre-
MUM. The market became heavy and declined TO
