FRIDAY EVENING. May %, 1875. J
The comparatively active demand for
money which was noticed Yesterday ana in
the earlier part Of the week was again per
ceptible I, day, and appeared 20 be more
general. The inquiry appeared 10 come
from various mercantile sources rather than
from any part cular branch of trade and. it
is hoped, indicates the development of d
better feeling, and some improvement IN
general business.
The sales of gold were limited, at sigh
advance upon yesterday s rates
The movement in foreign and domestic
exchange was also limited, with quotations
shade higher.
The stock market continues dull and IN
interesting. The few transactions reported
are incOn siderable There Is nothing. how
ever, 20 indicate any material change from
our previous quotations. The demand
appears TO have fallen oft. while holders
are not disposed to invite transactions upon
the basis of over figures.
No transactions are reported IN city
bonds, but most issues are dull and droop-
ing. A few sales of new State c0nsois show
"A slight decline upon yesterdays rates.
There is d striking similarity Just now IN
the situations OF the last mentioned secUri-
ties. Considerable portions of the bonded
debt Of both the city and State are involved
in litigation, the validity OF issues to large
amount being questioned. To what extent
this litigation may be calculated to affect
the securities involved it is not our province
to determine. But the existence of these
suits at least tends to discourage any active
movement for the present.
Metropolitan warrants are quoted az
points lower than yesterday, which is at
trlbuted by some to belief that city time
will be declared receivable in payment for
licenses at the next meeting of the Council.
Other securities are reported unchanged.
We continue to.quote first class sixty dav
paper and collateral loans at 5 a t. cent b
annurl, AL do at 10 a II, and second grade
at l50lS First class mortgages still rule
at 800 u cent " annum, while second
grade are entirely nominal.

Heavy Failure OF Manufacturer.

The Philadelphia Times of Tuesday
SAYS: Mr.. Henry G.. Morris, proprietor
of the .arge machine shops at Fifth
street and Washington avenue, formerly
occupied by Me"rick n Sons, covering
the whole block bounded by Fifth street
and Washington avenue, Fourth street
and Fclcral street, made an assignment
Yesterday, 10" the benefit of his creditors,
to Charles f. Norris, Esq, member OF
the bar and relative of the asslgno'.
\ few wears ago Mr.. Henry &. Morris
withdrew from the firm of Morris, I&sIier
X Co.. the great iroa firm, and it was
understood ut the time he drew out
with him from 100000 TO SlUUO,UuO.
Shortly aiterward ne purchased Eis
present works, and has been engaged IN
business on his own account. His pres
eut embarrassment L. attributed TO the
general staguation in trade, especially
nm ali branches of Manufacture Of iron,
and % special losses on several heavy con-
tracts. Mr.. Morris did heavy business
in Cuba, where be shipped number OF
expensive sugar machines. For some
of these he has been obliged to except III
payment Cuban notes, worth from forty
10 'iiftv cents on the dollar. He has been
i'm difficulties for some time aud some of
his creditors have been pushing him ana
he deemed it wise for the benefit of all
concerned. to make an assignment. 1t j.
not definitely known what are his assets
or liabilities, but it Is claimed that the
former will reach 100000 or SSO9OOO.
and that the latter will not exceed 5000
600. The assets, of course, depend largely
uuon the value Of the e. ensIve shops IN
which the business has been carried on.
To ascertain this it is proposed that a
engineer shall lie mutually agreed upon
bvthc creditors and assignee who shall
make a thorough investigation, and re-
Dor. upon the value oft ne property. The
assignee is of the opinion that the inter
c,i, of the creditors can be best subScrvcd
bv allowing Mr.. Morris to operate the
business for their benefit. The PROPOSE
ton will be made, and, il accepted the
business will 20 on rs heretofore; if 1t Is
rejected, the property must be sacrificed.
Hon. William \. Porter is the counsel
of the assignee, and the Philadelphia
Trust Company will be his security in
Whatever amount NAV be required.
John c. Built, Esq, represents several Of
the larger creditors. The works have
closed until some definite plan of action
can be agreed upon.
