NEW YORK, April THE Wall street
market to-day is free from excitement, the

The upward movement has been tempo
rarily checked. The opening price was
Sl.19s, after which there was decline to
$1.1S3, then an advance to S1.18s and a de-
cline TO S1.1SS. The present price on gold
loans rates has been 5a7 per cent. per an

Advices from London to-day are favor
able, both for money and securities. In
the money market the rates to borrowers
offering approved collaterals have ranged
from Lie to 3-16 of one per cent per day.
The currency movement continues in fa-
vor of this centre, although we do not
know that speculatiors have stopped send
ing legal tenders out of the city, which it
is suspected they did last week for the pur-
pose simply of weakening the banks rate,
not that there was any legitimate demand
for money. Mercantile paper is entirely
neglected and nominal.
The enforcement of the usury law is

of the system of lending at fractions of one

CHICAGO, H., Feb. %, 1873.
A horrible case OF premeditated murder and
suicide occurred at waseca Mimi, on Monday last.
1t appears that two Germans Alexander Busen

married, owned and worked a farm together and
that finally Busen was driven away and Run took
full possession Of the farm and Busen's family.
Recently the Grand Jury found an Indictment

greatly alarmed them. On Tuesday morning last
the neighbors in going to Busen's house. found IL
shut up, and on breakingi in discovered Mrs.
Busen and her youngest child lying on the bed
batbed In blood, their threats cut from to ear.
on the floor beside the bed lay the lfeless body OF
Rnn with his throat cut. From letters left by both
the man and the woman II is evident that they
agreed upon this tragic method OF escaping from
mo clutches of the law.
