NEW YORK, Oct. london money
rates were easier. Our own rates were
sitter, and there was perceptible in
crease in the demand for money. The
rate advanced to per cent in the morn
ing hours. The commercial community
is still making deep inroads in the banks
resources. The abnormal demand for
money in order to enter goods under the
provision of the old tariff has, of course,
subsidized. Receipts for customs duties
at the sub treasury yesterday were only
S575, 574, against 81 ,l54 $40 on Satur-
day. The changed conditions of the
two money markets and the purchases of
stocks for London account were reflected
in a reduction of 1sc. in the rates for
sterling exchange. London bought our
stocks in our market at the opening in
considerable quantities, especially Louis
vile and Nashville, St. Paul and Union
Pacific. The whole list was strong, but
later it subsidized into dizziness, and
prices fell off. At ! clock some were
below yesterdays closing, while many.
including the most active ones, such as
Louisville, St. Paul aud Atehison, were
well above. Burlington and Quincy and
Rock Island were the weak spots. The
sentiment seemed to prevail that at least
temperorary rally was due.
An unauthenticated rumor that the
Encouragement OF this state intended,
in consequences of the DELAYS of the sugar
trust reorganization, TO ask for the ap-
pointment of a receiver for the proper
