New York Money Market
New YORK, Jan. 31.-In the gold
room to-day the speculative feeling was
quite bullish at times and the price ad
vanced TO 110a, but afterwards dropped off
to 1909. One of the German bankers has
been large buyer to-day; loans were from
8 to z per cent. for carrying; cleariDgs thirty
millions. Governments dull and steady;
on stock exchange to-day the railway and
miscellaneous speculation was very tame
and lower prices were made. In the earlier
hours OF to-day, Erie was very weak, and
declined from 32a to 30s. This was fol |
| lowed by decline in the Hannibal and st. |
ice common from 504 to 4Sii; the depres- |
sion IN these two stocks affected the balance |
of the list, and prices fell off to : per cent.
in sympathy. The market at the close was |
heavy, and Erie declined to 305, while the |
balance of the list was generally down to |
the lowest figures of to-day. The Pacific |
Mail and Union Pacific were comparatively |
firm; Express stocks generally firm, and /
did not participate in the decline of the |
railway and miscellaneous shares. Money
steady, 6a7c; State bonds dull and steady. |
