Business Transacted and Prices PAID at Home
and Abroad

NEW YORK, Aug 20.-Today's stock
market disappointed the owners and hold
ors of securities who had pinned their
faith to decided improvement in prices as
a result of the beginning of the return
flow of gold announced yesterday. A fur
ther engagement for import to this country
of $780, 900 was made today and there were
uncontirmed rumors after the close of busi-
ness of additional heavy imports impend-
ing within a day or two. 1t was an
nounced that the bank presidents whose
conference was reported yesterday had de-
cided that concerted action to secure gold
from Europe was not called for in the eX-
isting circumstances. AS usual in similar
conditions, the street was furnished with
a considerable amount of ingenious but
unauthoritative data regarding the pros
pectiVe importation of the yellow metal.
In well informed circles the impression
prevailed that the imports of gold were
1Cr the express purpose of affording much
needed financial relief to the mercantile
community here was also conflict of
opinion among experts as to whether the
$zO90,0CO engagement by Messrs. Freres
was or was not special transaction. 1t
is unquestionable that many business men
have recently found it difficult to secure
monetary accommodations, as is evidenced
by the successive reports of the curtail-
ment of industrial activity. Although not
a matter of record. per cent was paid
in several instances today for money by
merchants. and banking houses reported
applications by customers for money
WHeFGW1tn 10 Duy eScndnSe. conservative
merchants believe. however that most of
the weak Nconcerns have already been
weeded out Transactions in commercial
paper were reported at Z per cent, as
against nominal figures of and - per cent,
quoted yesterday. The market was only
moderately active and prices moved ir-
regularly with persistent downward
trend. The huctuation were in many in
stances quite marked The traders were
bearishly disposed on account of the fail
ure of the London market to respond to the
improvement on the local exchange yes
terday. Reported further cutting of rail-
road rates. a stiffening in exchange figures
and estimates of heavy decrease in re-
serves of the associated banks on Satur-
day contributd to depress stocks. The
opening was quiet and irregularly weak
with The variations unimportant. The bulls
on sugar soon made a diversion in that
stock, resulting in an advance of one per
cent. and checked the general reactionary
tendency. The rise was stimulated by the
news of a $250,000 gold engagement from
abroad by prominent banking house.
Recessons followed on reaizatons and de-
cided dullness succeeded Marked depres-
sion occurred in the final hour. The clos
ing was at the lowest at substantial net
losses throughout. Railroad bonds were
irregular with the fluctuations extremely
wide in many issues. The tendency was
downward. Sales today, 1888 600. Silver
certificates were steady on dealings Of
$15 900.
