The o!oaringB wers very lcavy yesterday, on
account Of tho accumulation OF two days busi-
ness. and tho settlements Of tho 6rst. They
vera IS, 100, 900, nearly double this figures OF
Thursday.
Tho business Of the banks generally waa fair.
The counter business, Of course, MAS slarge. Tho
demand for loans was moderate, but from the
aamo sources that have been noticed as appli-
cants for the last ten days. The amount Of mis-
ccllanoous commercial paper offered is consider
able, and it meets with rcadv sale, tho supply
being much below the demand.
Ratea Of discount remain unchanged. To
regular customers 10 per cent is charged; in
dependent borrowers arc accommodated at re-
duccd rates. Street rates ara 8@18 per cent,
and real estate loans at 8@10 per cont.
The price OF New York exchange is weaken-
ing. Sales vero freely mado ut par. The orders
from tho country ale not 80 heavy N they have
been.
There il little movement OF currenty. Tho
receipts at most Of tho banks exceed tho ship
ncnts.
Among tho instruments filed at tho Recorders
office, Dec. 81, was ,trust-deed dated Dec. 81,
from tho MochanicS' National Bank, to W. I.
Culver for Si5, 001. This instrument was dated
on the day on which the bank dec1ded to go into
voluntary liquidation.
There va% soma excitement in commercial and
financial circles oyor the disappearance Of tho
Foe Bros., wholesale grocers, with a largo
amount OF funds, leaving O heavy indebtedness
bshind them unpaid All the particulars that
