FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL.
The Stock Market Fairly Ac-
tive and Weak.
MONEY ON CALL I A 2 A 1 PER CENT.
Government Bonds Quiet. States Dull and
Railroads Irregular.
WALL STREET,

T.
The real demand for money at to per cent to-
day and the possibility that higher rates might
be demanded in the future tended to dwarf business
and render the Stock Exchange barren of interest
Dealings few, fluctuations feeble and anything
of public interest utterly unworthy of attention
1t is conceded that tight money. might get holders
of stocks into tight place. and under an apprehen
sion OF this sort they have been free sellers. The
reservation must be made, however that the selling
movement has been upon the part Of small traders
There no evidence that the great operators have
parted with their stocks mean to do SO. Trading
has been done detail" rather than sen gros and
to the lesser Spectators is left the responsibility
OF getting out OF the market at profit at loss
Despite the prevailing heaviness and the tendency to
lower prices there remains back of all thorough be-
lief in higher values to come unfortunately true
that some of the best the bulls afflicted with the
slimmest of margins and the fat of their brokers
makes them sellers whether they will or not. Con-
sequently there constant ooze OF such stock upon
the market and it in measure weighs down prices.
In addition, there holders of stocks who could
keep them if they would; but they won't. They
argue that money is likely to remain in demand for
a couple of weeks to come, that stocks Will tend
downward by their weight during that time ana
that previous holders will be able to recoup their
holdings at lower prices and at saving Of interest
them-at reduced prices. However bullish operators
may be sin fltavo' they are not SO at present.
and the inclination exists to pass stocks along from
one bull to another-as fire buckets were passed
from hand to hand in early days-until the burning
shame of a tight money market shall have been ex-
tinguished. AS matter of fact there Is DISPOSE
ton bear the market Sales Of long stock are for
account of weak holders who trade upon the pos
sibity of lower prices and the certainty of saving
of interest. Their intention is however. to buy in
again when the money market eases. and until that
time destined to stand like SO many "Sister
AIMS" upon the tower Of observation watching for
the favorable turn to come. That this turn will
when the present money agitation has been set
to be certain. 1t remains for the long
sighted speculator to get profitable glimpse of its
approach.

Proprietors On Easy Terms
Very Respectfully,

Judge c. 6. smith has been for some time
pursuing a plan for the Improvement of
property which we consider wen worthy of
attention and imitation.
Some years ago he became the purchaser
of a considerable tract of land formerly
included in the old poor-house grounds,
which he offered for sale in small building
lots. but failed to obtain bidders the class
fmen who needed such lots not having
generally the funds on hand TO pu chase,
the ground therefore lay idle until last
spring. Just after the fire n great demand
arose for small tenement houses, but the
want of capital was again an obstacle to
purchase. The Judge then contracted with
Mr. Perkins to put him some small houses
on lots which he had divided of, averaging
about Gjx2OO #. His contract was $40 per
house. which was raised in the average 10
$3.50 by expenses of fencing, guttering, cist-
ems, etc. Some Of these houses he sold for
$500 apiece, but not many; the preferred ar
rangenent was to rent them at $40 a month
with the condition that Eve years occupa-
ton on those terms should entitle the ten
ant to the fee simple of his house. lie has
now Eve lots occupied on those terms to the
satisfaction of all parties. The judge gets
regular payments from IeSpeCtah4e anu IT,
liable tenants the tenants feel that for q
trifie higher rent than they would otherwise
have to pay, they are investing their = oney
in the purchase of real estate by which their
children win be benefited /; and a thriving
little village is growing up where otherwise
nothing but waste lands would have existed
under the old system of management.
The Judge speaks of himself as a building
and loan association on a small scale, and
We doubt whether his larger rivals are doing
as much good in proportion to the funds ~
their disposal.
