NEW YORK.

NRw YORK, August 15.-Wsll Street.
Gold weak, and but for the efforts of the
clique would have sold lower as foreign
exchange is very weak. 1t opened at 1928,
and closed at 1l2z. Loans were made at
I-32@3 80 for use per day. Clearings,
$47 500 600. Governments firm; IS of
1881 and currency bonds have been very
strong. The stock market opened lower
on large sales by the bears, but prices ad-
vsnced as soon as they stopped offering
Erie, Western Union, Union Pacific and
Pacific Msil were strongest toward the
close. North Western took an upward
turn. The whole list was active. Some
of the bears seem to have given up all
hope of depressing the market, as they
were buying back their stocks to-day at
loss. The market closed strong and ac-
tive for Western Union and Pacific Mail.
Others rather dull. Money easy at 293
per cent. State bonds are dull, except
Tennessee, which are strong and active.
