WALL STREET, NEW YORK, September a.
Gold opened 1rm at ll43F and sold to ll4Sz, but
e. soon as the Government sales were made
the public market fell to ll3IS, and at tbs close
there was q rally, and prices advanced 10 llz11
sll43s. Loans were made in the msrning ~
I-l6 down TO dat for use; later, from 2 to per
cant. we're paid for carrying. Clearings, $685.
$4,000 bids for Treasury gold amounted to
SS, s., ,000 at from liz 70 ia 40l00 awards, S.,
O00,0O0, at from ll3 2l-I00 TO ia 39l00. Govern
nlentS were steady, with but little ohangO
from yesterdays prices. The Stock Exchange
was scene OF great exsitsmsnt when the an
nou zcement Of an extra sale Of gold was
made There was for . short time = rush 70
sell stocks generally, and prices declined LStO
der cent. The theory was based on tho report
that the bear combination would withdraw
and lock up 1Ye thousand millions OF green
backs tomorrow, when the gold would have
70 be paid for. Later in the afternoon the
market became nrmsr and the decline was
partiallyrecOvered on the rumOr that theTreAs-
ury would be very easy about the payments
for gold If money was stringent. The fact that
Boutwell, will be here tonight also caused
better feeling, and especially ~ IL was reported
that he would probably order an extra pur-
chase of bonds for saturday. Most OF the
speculative shares declined during the day; at
the close there was a recovery from the lowest
point and the market closed 1rm but dull.
Money Wss run up 10 per cent, and, in some
cases, per cent. gold was bid At the close the
ruling rate was per cent, State bonds were
