MONEY, STOCKS AND BONDS
STOCKS UNSETTLED, BUT DO WELL
TOWARD THE CLOSE
There Was q Disposition to Take
Profts at the Opening, but the
Saw Freer Buy
ing and Better Prices.

TIL closing of the old year and opening
of the new resulted in few and unimport-
ant changes in the money market OF the
country. In New York there was an eff
fort to harden rates a little under the In
fuence of January settlements; but what
advance in rates had was mainly In call
loans, and trifling. Borrowing was light,
only % per cent of the new oans being
made on commercial paper, and the gen.
eral feeling one of ease in the absence CT
any special demand, and what firmness
to annual settlements. Last Saturdays
New York statement showed an Increase
of $685. 500 in loans: S3,OS5.9O in deposits:
s79o,6N in specie. and Sas2'@S IN legal
Si3S. 0I5 in the surplus reserve. making It
now SIS. $50, 975 in excess of the % per cent
rule. This, as a whole, is a good show
ing, and that there should be gains in all
items save that of the surplus reserve
must be charged to the treasury call for
the first installment of the Pacific rail-
surplus, and alone affected the cash item.
The banks gained only 81. $4,000 from the
interior, which included some gold ship
ments from San Francisco. But with the
annual settlements out of the way. a free
movement of currency is expected from
the country. and continued ease in the loan
market. Boston. Philadelphia and Balti-
more all report money abundant easy.
and the situation here in the West con-
tinues to favor borrowers. Here at Kan
sas City the demand for money has been
but little call for new money. either from
the country or home borrowers. and
what little new paper offering for small
amounts and short dates. Rates. how
ever, held firm at 7dS per cent. But little
currency going to the country, the banks
now generally gaining money from the
country. Bank clearings for the week
ending Wednesday. So. 1863. 6S1. against 81, 4O7.-

Stocks and Bonds.

NEW YORK. Jan. stocks were reactionary in
the forenoon, but forged strongly upward in the
afternoon, led by high priced specialties, including
Brooklyn Transit, Sugar and Tobacco. The opening
was irregular with a tendency both here and in
London to take profits and prices reacted moderately.

diligently to reach stop loss orders. Many shares

developed in the afternoon and continued until the

to a desire Of the parent company (Pennsylvania)
to form a closer union with its Western lines. While
ing was strong, the advance in standard shares was
generally moderate. The rise in wheat stimulated
interest in many of the Western railroad shares. The
advance Of 5 points in American Tobacco was un-
accompanied by any new developments in the prop
erty. There were large purchases by interests identi-

There has been a better tone to the market the
past week than for some time. The receipts were
better, both in number and quality. but not excess
sive. The holidays out OF the way and the old year
turned behind. buyers got down to work more will
ingly. The game season being over and poultry COM
Ing in less freely. a little better call Is being had
for beef. which has tended to help the market a lit
tie. Good cornfed steers have not only been selling
more freely. but they have been bringing a little
more money. Pretty much everything Is 1eG15c per
cwt. higher than a week ago. and some nice lots
have improved even a little more. Yesterday a
choice lot of export steers. particularly smooth. sold
at $50. and one lot equally as fat, but a little
rough. brought $3.50. Cows. as well as steers. have
been selling a little better. and meeting with a very
good demand. Stockers and feeders. as usual this
time Of year. were in only moderate demand. but
such lots as just suited generally showed a slight
advance. Range cattle. as we'll as natives. have been
doing better: while they were in very good supply
the per cent OF them was not so large as heretofore.
Natives are gaining in numbers, while range stuff
fall of proportionately. In the Southern division
there were very light receipts. and here the market
was perhaps stronger than in the native division.
and the pens cleared each day without trouble. Ali
In all. the market was the best for weeks. While 1t
was not especially snappy, buyers showed less hesi-
fancy in taking hold than for some time. and the
outlook is more ENCOURAGING. though there is nothing
to warrant any especial advance in values. Mich

ChIc,co Times-HersId savs.

The Chicago Times Herald says: 1.-THE coarse grain
bulls lost their leader yesterday. 4 have sold out
about 1000, 600 bushels Of long corn which cost me
from 30 to IS cents for May said Patten a little
before the close. He sold about half as much oats
as he did corn. 1t was simply a case OF prof. taking.
Patten was the hrst to have any followers on the
bull side OF corn and oats this season. There were
other bulls in the market with good sized lines, but
they had been in the pit a long time and had losses
in their accounts rather than profits. That was NOT
the sort Of experience to attract followers. Patten
came back from Japan in November and had NOT
been back forty-eight hours before he had brokers
picking up corn and oats. 1t caught the fancy OF
the crowd and half the pit and 4 good sized following
Of outsiders tailed on after. Corn soon started up
slowly at first, but more rapidly after q time, and
one day last week corn showed an advance Of over
&c a bushel from the point where Patten started in,
Oats moved up about half az much. Patten probably
secured an average Of Sc on his corn line and &c on
his oats. which will probably mean $50, 5000 to him
for his campaign. Patten has as much OF a follow
ing now as any operator on the floor. He is par
ticularly frank in his talk and Affects no secret Of
his dongs."
