Review of the Money, Gold, bond,
Stock, and Produce markets..
Special Despntch to The Chicago Tribune.
New YoEE, Jan. 15-Moncy WAS easy during
the morning at to per cent on call, but q little
1rmer in the afternoon, when business was at
currency to gold The currency balance in the
Treasury remains ut the low figure Of s. 900 900,
which excites much attention in view OF THE
prospective action Of Congress in limiting the
legal tendor circulation Of the country to $780,
000, 900. II Congress decides that the Secretary
has no right to Issue legal tenders at his pleas
ure up to $500, ,000, 900, the Treasury Department
will have to work very close in consequence OF
the small currency balance.
TIE banks are complaining OF q superahun-
dance Of National Bank notes. compared with
tue supply OF legal tenders. The Treasury gave
5-20s bought to-day entirely in National Bank
notes. This action, however, may be dictated BY
it's necessities
Approved mercantile paper is quoted ut 6
to u.
sroc6s
Tho stock market at tie opening advanced
slightly. but fell OF steadily in the afternoon,
closing hcary at the lowest prices Of the day.
The principal dealings, which we're not large,
graph Company, New York Central, Ohios, and
Rock Island. Tho Rock Island Company have
not publicly sold any OF the 60, 900 shares which
report said would be sold to-day. There arc in
dications that the stock is being secretly
sold. Erie was the market stock. The proposed
naw loan is not maintaining it's first favorable
impression in London. The clique bearing the
Union Pacific hare been badly bitten during the
last two days, and they wero making haste to-
day to close out, Western Union WAS weak, and
declined about l Il per cent. The proposed re-
luction in rates is bringing considerable stock
into Wall street for sale, aud this is probably
the Cause Of tho decline.
Government bones were frzner, and the de-
cline OF yesterday WIS nearly recovered. THIS
Was partly due to the tirmer feeling in gold,
and better inquiry for bonds in this market.
The offerings to the Treasury to-day amounted
to ouly S218, 500. Bonds ars .yery scarce, but
the offerings would have befn larger had It not
been known that payment would be in National
Iauk notes.
