New York Money Market
NEW YORK Aug. 26.-There has been
an active trade ia money to-day and the
efforts Of bulls in gold to crea q monetary
stringency seems to be partially successful.
The rate advanced to Z currency al gold,
but at the cl Sc broke down to per cent.
At the time money advanced to 7 per cent
a vigorous attack was made upon the lead
ing stocks to enable the shorts to cover.
The Post says: If this is the beginning of a
policy to harrass the money market during
the autumn so as to distress trade borrow
ers, extraordinary measures will be taken
by the United States Treasury to defeat this
scheme. Sterling was . little frmer at
10750i072 for 50 days, and l0Ss6108a for
sight. TIE Custom receipts to-day were
S5S,6000. Gold was lower, ranging from
1l5i, to 1154 closing at the latter figure;
loans were at 2G4 per cent to fiat for car
rying. The cieariDgs were S43 600, 900.
The Assistant Treasurer discussed to-day
S477 600. Governments were dull. State
bonds were quiet. Stocks were irregular
but in the main weak and lower. The
volume of business except in Pacific Mail,
Western Union, Wabash snd Union Pacific
was very moderate. Hannibal and s.. Joe
common was Hammered down from 81 to
SO tut the remainder Of the list showed
changes of only ! to per cent, with the
exceptions CT those stocks previously named.
At the close 3 steatier feeli; g prevailed.
The Wabash boo5s for the annual election
will probably close in q short time and to-
day the stock was worth ] per cent for 10
days, while there was q cecline of per
cent on the market prica. There is an
active borrowing demand for stocks general
ly, and leading shares are loan'ng at 3 per
to fat. F. AleX2ndree was to-day elected
director of the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company in place of Geo. Palmer resigned.
The total exports Of produce for the week
ending to-day, for this port, was S5,258, 491.
