New York Money Market.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-The Wall street
markets exhibited little more animation
this P. M. The features were decline in
gold and an advance in securities. On
the Stock Exchange, some prominent bro
kers who have been absent from the mar
ket for some time, appeared as bold buyers,
and succeeded in establishing an advance
of from one to two per cent. In the Gold
Room the German and Anglo-American
bankers were sellers of gold, which caused
a decline to 1174. This lowest price was
influenced by rumors of the death of Ma
poleOn, and by the advance and frmness
of United States bonds abroad, but the de-
cline was accelerated by the fact that some
weak American holders were forced to
throw their gold overheard, one party
alone selling one and half million long, gold
which he found inconvenient financially to
carry any longer. Later in the day there
was rally to 11S9 on reports that ship
ments tomorrow would amount to one and
a half or two millions, but at the custom
house thus far only one million has been
cleared. Market closed dull at 11S4@11S4.

Of leading firms report decidedly easier

confidence Is greatly restored, and money

lily returning to general circulation. The
price of silver at London is declining and
money Is returning from the continent,
where the first fright and pinch in money
has subsidized. In Frankfort, Berlin and
other money centers, financial affairs have
assumed more cheerful aspect since the
Prussian victory. These kilograms an
nounce a general feeling of indignation in
London, in regard to the violation of the
international law by France in Selling the
specie of prominent bankers. This seizure
has caused exchange in long to advance to

twenty years. Money market 395 Q cent.
