MINING SUMMARY,
For tho Week Ending MAJ I'd. 1879.

For tho Week Ending May I'D, 1879.
The stock market during the week
has been and still Is lively, with con-
siderable sales at advanced rates, show
ing a pleasing degree Of buoyancy at
the close, giving promise Of a lively
market during the coming week.
This better tone of the markell s due
not only to improvement in some Of
the mines, but principally to the much
greater ease In money matters. Stocks
can now BIZ bought on margins, which
could not be done for some months
past. The San Francisco Alta gives
the following on the financial situa-
ton:
The stock market becoming more
active absorbs more monoy, and. also,
to some extent, supplies IL. In the
last ii days the market value Of the
leading stocks has advanced $4,000
900. giving so much more security for
the employment of money. Within
the next ten days 81, 900, 900 coin will
be paid out for dividends. The state
OF affairs In New York. where gold
commands little more than six per
cent. per annum interest, Is more IA
yorable to this market, and the organi-
cation Of two new foreign banks in-
spires confidence, rs 1t Is IN evidence
that the future Of the State Is appro-
ciated by those shrewd capitalists of
Europe, who have had the best means
Of information. The Mint operations
this month are larger, but the supply
OF California gold has not been very
satisfactory, Tho Nevada bullion
which comes here runs high In gold.
The Belcher gives sixty per cent; that
Is. OF 81, GOO, 900 bullion the gold con-
taIned will be $500. 900. The Crown
Point runs as we'll. aud the two mines
give $4,000. 900 for April. The de-
mand for money for remittance has
been less.
Below we give>what VIC know about
the mines.

The rapid decrease IN the amount Of our stocks
Of grain, especially in wheat, is due to two
causes. The receipts are lighter than the aver
age, except in oats, having boon kept back by
bad weather, or diverted to other points through
dissatisfaction with tho inspection. Then tho
shipping movement is really free one, and in
such few hands Qby 1ake) that shippers are able
to dictate in regard to rates. This being the
case, there is q better margin OF profit than
usual to the shipper. The history Of the grain
trade in the past shows that fully two-thirtls Of
tho time our market has been relatively higher
than New York Hence shippers have been
losers. ...
There is, however, one important element Of
loss to shippers in the past, which ia only in
directly connected with differences in price in
tho two cities, and which the shippers have it in
their power to remedy. t Is = notorious fact
Chicago to New York, BY Chicago parties is sold
to arrive on the seaboard, and that such sale
has often been nothing moro thkn Gull to the
New York operator. When the grain arrives it
IS taken al hight if there be Rroat init; bnt
between the times of buying and arrival
tho grain is carefully inspected, and
has often been refused under such circumstances
on the ground that it Was not equal to sample.
It is useless for the shipper to protest in such
casee, because he has no security, and cannot
AFFORD to psy demurrage; hence be is obliged to
put the grain On the market, and perhaps sells
It to the same man at tho market price Of that
day, which may be several cent? below tha price
first agroed upon.
It is no wonder that under such clrcum-
stances many would-be shippers hold back,
aa only few can WELD capital enough to
DO able to take the chances. And this is
the great secret OF our present low rnte8
Of lake freight: the absence OF competition
among shippers. It would seem, however, that
Chicago is now influential enough to have =
voice in the matter, md it is probable that 80

MONETARY,

SATURDAY EvEsua, May 81.
During the past week the money markets both
East and West have grown easier. It is possible
that the fact that the National Banks have re-
ceived the call for their statement and naturally
do not expect to have another one soon, induces
them to let out money little moro freely. but
aside from this the supply OF money seems to bs
increasing. Deposits at the banks are as large rs
they have been for ak months, and the supply
OF money offered in. the open market ia large
enough to make 4 good demand for business
paper.
There is considerable currency being sent to
the various wheat markets in the Northwest to
be used, doubtless, in paying for wheat which is
now coming into the country stations much more
rapidly than last week. The amounts OF cur
rency ordered from here to Milwaueeo, Winona,
Red Wing, and other places in that direction yes
terday and to-day indicate more active move
ment Of the grim in tho Northwest, and the
probability Of larger receipts both here and at
Milwaukee next week
