Last week passed away without furry in the
local money market-a few exceptional loans as
high as per cent on day being an unimportant
exception TO uniform at 3022 per cent for call
loans. Time loans, however, are harder to obtain,
and there is little money Offering in that way at less
than o per cent The domestic exchanges were
without noteworthy changes but at the West they
at rates that call for shipments of money hence
The following the latest quotations for
New-York funds at the places named: Savannah,
la 81 premium; Charleston. lsQl IA premium; New
Orleans, commercial, rs cents discount, bank 81
premium st. Louis, so cents discount Chicago 81
discount Boston. 1879 cents premium. The foreign
exchanges again weaker and with a dull
movement. Actual business transacted on the
basis of ~ s2l2 and 81 S4l2 for long and short
sterling respectively. The decline however in the
foreign demand for breadstuffs. and the high
figures at which speculation is holding them, have
checked the anticipation of an early importation of
gold. There are indications OF early advance in
the price of iron that may stimulate the imports so
that the present trade balance may be reduced if
not reversed.
In stock circles the last week was one of i'm
mense fluctuations and no little excitement Until
Wednesday prices continued to decline and for
some of the active stocks the fall from Saturday
night TO the lowest figures of the week amounted to
as much rs CAT per cent. After Wednesdays early
business there was a decided change in the temper
OF the spectators. few of the larger bears y
became buyers to close contracts and after having
met with great success in making large
purchases at the low figures, showed their
hands. so that the whole army of small
'bears' FASTENED to follow suit. The advance from
being slow and uncertain became rapid and violent,
and was accelerated by the repurchases of "bulls
who had thrown overheard their stocks at lower
prices SO great is the recovery that prices gener-
ally are higher than week ago. CThe following
compares the opening prices the morning of July

since and the closing prices yesterday, of few of

The weekly bank statement that was published
Saturday presents no changes that important in
amount significant In character As the move
ents of funds and from the city during the week
are supposed to have been about equal in amounts
the reported loss of 44S,O 900 specie is fair aver
age representation of the actual gain of 81 $4,000
coin made by the Sub-Treasury and lost by the
banks So it is probable that the statement of spe-
Gle is made up on a declining average The loss in
deposits reported at about $500 900 greater than
the loss called for by the other changes and so re-
duces the amount of reserve required by the 20 per
cent rule that the surplus reserve by the state
ments is only SAT 975 less than it was week ago.

statements of July % and July So
