NEW YORK.
NEW YORK, September II-WaIl street.
Geld was very strong, opening at I1SZ and
closing at 11315@ll3Z. Cash gold was
very scarce, loans being made at from
per cent. per annum to "a per cent, per dav
for use. Clearsnces about $67, ,O0O, 900.
Governments were strong and in sypathy
with gold, but business was small. Stocks
opened weak, and the speculative feeling
during the morning was very tame, with
a pressure to sell and q decline in the
leading shares. Daring the afternoon
there were wilful rallies and reactions, but
at the close they were steadier, and there
was less disposition to sell. The two lead
ing features were the Lake Shore and Wa
bash. After these, in point of interest,
were the New York Central, Northwest
ern, Western Union, Pacific Mail and
Union Pacific. The market at the close
was firm, the Northwestern common and
Lake Shore being up to the highest point
of the day. The demand for money was
little more active this afternoon. At one
time per cent. was paid by stock brok-
ers. The closing rate was per cent.
