FINANCES IMPROVING.
The Currency Famine About Over
at New York.
Heavy Consignments of Gold Received
Currency Still at . Premium-Silver
Neglected Owing to the Ex-
pense Of Handling 1t.
The, Financial situation.

New YORK, Aug. 15.-As was ex-
pected, the demand for currency was
very light yesterday, although it is
known that several large pay rolls had
to be prepared for. The shops of those
dealers in money who were most con-
spicuous last week were almost empty
of customers. They were buying only
to fill orders and paid per cent prem
ium for small lots. No premium was
offered for gold to arrive.
Maturing loans in the city, it was
said, are and have been as a rule re-
newed, at the old rate, about per
cent. 1t was reported that several
cities, Providence and st. Paul being
especially mentioned, had adopted the
rule of stamping all checks on New
York payable through the clearing
house." Bankers said these cities were
not by any means singular in this mat
ter: that on the contrary the practice
had become so general throughout the
country that the exceptions, if any,
would be worth knowing. Large checks
for cotton are now coming in, and were
stamped as was requested by the local
banks.
The steamer Yucatan, which arrived
from Havana, had $3.50. 900 Spanish gold.
The steamship Lain. due from Europe
on Wednesday. has IS, $50. 900 in gold on
board. The steamship Ems has st,4SO.-
900 in gold aboard. The steamer La
Normandie brought secs, 600 to Barring,
Magoun & Co.-and 100000 to Heidel-
bach. Ickelheimer & Co. from France.
The s5O,,5O in gold consigned to the
Canadian Bank of Commerce, brought
in by the Aurania. is for the bank of
Nova Scotia, of Chicago. The Etruria.
which sailed from Liverpool on Satur-
day, has 81, $50, 600 in gold consigned to
local bankers.
The sterling exchange market was
firmer and posted rates We're put up to
s4.S215 and s4.S71s. The receipts Of
bills by mail were fairly large, especially
against grain and provisions. There
was also sprinkling Of cotton futures.
There was good inquiry for bills by
gold importers.
Silver at the Stock exchange was
neglected. Commercial bar and Next
can dollars were weaker, declining to
7219 and 5sai respectively.
Currency was firmer in the afternoon
and the premium was up to IL. Gold
and paper are wanted particularly. sill
yer in measure being Disseminated
against on account of the expense of
handling. Spot gold was quoted at
"a, and for delivery at II per cent.
The market for sterling exchange was
frner in the late dealings and posted
rates were advanced half cent to 81 So
to s4.SS. Gold importers were the
heaviest buyers of bills and they had
much to do with the Improvement.
