F THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 187 MONEY AND COMMERCE. MCNETARY. Torspay EVESING, Now. 12, In the local money-market business was rather quief to-day. It is pow generally believed that the Boston fire will creste no derangement in money matters here; thet it will not make money tight in Boston or anywhere else for some months, at least, and that it is not likely to affect the monoy-market here ab all, unless it may diminish the amount of New England capital Joaned here on mortgages, though even this conld scarcely bo the case until next sum- 1mer, when the Boston rcal estate owners want torebuild. But Ly thet time the demand for such loans in Chicago will have diminished. ‘The market for commercial loans is_still string- eut. Many of the banks are refusing more or Jess good commercial paper, which they would like to tako if their supply of funds wonld admit, and the most of thém still.report that they are extending a good deal of paper that matures. On the whole, however, we believo the market is casier, and the demand for money less than it was a week 2go. Ono pretty sure indication of it is that there is now very litile firat-class paper offered in tle open market. All that is offered is guickly taker at 124 per cent permonth. On collaterals of bank and o local stocks, money is to bo had in the open market at from 12to 15 per cent per annum, most transactions being at’ tho latter rate. We £oe no reason yet to change the opinion ex- pressed some Lime ago, that moneyis likely to Temain tight here all winter. But the move- ment of ihe hog crop will set money afloat, and alleviate the stringency to some extent during the next moath. Kew York exchango was firm at 60c to 75¢ per £1,000 preminm for sales between banks to-day. THE RECOVERY OF STOCES.

Yesterday we remarked that, in councction wilh the recent advance in the rate of discount by the bank to 7 per cent, there seemed io be something in the _situation of the London money market mot fully explainod in the foreign dospatches. In fact, the letest London papers seem _to hold di- verse opmuions on the subject. The London Econ of Oct. 2§ says there is an increased demand and © an unuslly difficient supply of gold.” The London Zimes of the 2Sth™ says thero is a dispositica on ihe purt of {he public ~tohold an vnususl amountof currency idle in their own hands.” Now, although the Tinies and tho Ecoromist dispute with each other about techuicatities, and favey that they do not agree abous the condition of the London money market, wa think it will be plain to most persons that in fact they both mean about tl;a same thing, viz.: ibat there has been aloss o confidence, and that people aro Tolding money ot of ihe b Tu other ~ words, they ro _hoarding it ‘Whether this 'is ihe case, or whether ihe float- ing capita, the exchangeablo surplus of wcalth called *“money,” or **zvailable funds,” is not be- ing locked up in investments that aré not profit- sble, is a question that cen scarcely be deter- mined yet. It scemsprobable that this latteris the view taken of the titustion by the Directors of the Bank of England, hence their cadeavor to rheck the tendency be raising the rate of inter~ est. In order to show the position of the Bank of England duricg tho lasy three months, we point to the {ollu(\ Coinand Lullion. 29,575,063 a1, 7127 2 Rateof Discount, 7 o S 1,556,517 Oct, 23, 35,127,758 6 Since the foregoing was printed in the New York Bulletin the rate has been raised to 7 per cent, showing thet the tendency indicated zbove continues. The “securities” in the above sum- mary represent the loans, or advances to the commercind public. An analysis of the figures shows tlat the deposits bave fellen off £7,804,- 5643 the loaus have Leen contracted £5,103,487, nd the coin sud builion had been rednced by 217,017 from July &1 to Oct. 23. The loss of deposits has compelled the contraction of loans, and even this fails to drow any surplus funds into the bank. Buuks can ovly hold their own capital ond the surplus moncy for which the ‘business community have no immediato use. If, therefore, tho public aro either using their fands go fhat there is no sarplus, or if, 25 above mentioned, floating capital is being locked up in unavailable end_usprofitabla investments, so that the surplue is absorbed, any contraction of I54ns on the plan of the Bank of England must 1ail to draw any more surplus inte its vaulis, ecause there i3 no surplus, and money would coptinue to grow tighter until there is some kind of a crisis.

TuEsDAY EVESING, Nov. 12, The following were tho receipts and shipments of the leading articles of produce in this city Guring tho past twenty-four hours; and for the corresponding date a year ago: Barley, bu . Grass beed, 1bs - Hides, tbs Highwines, Wool, Ios ... ‘Potatoes, it Lumber, m feat Shingles m Lath, m . 16| Balt, brls 2,031 Withkdrawn from store vesterday for city con- sumption; 1,130 bu wheat; 634 bu oats ; 364 bu 5,610 7,162, -Iye. The following grain has inspected into storo this morning up to 10 o'clock: 199 cars wheat; 99 cars and 9,000 bu corn ; 2214 cars oats; 3 cars end 2,200 bu rye; 7934 cars barley. Total, (403 cars) 164,000 bu. The statement of George Armour & Co., of the stocks of grain in store in thrco houses on Saturdsy evening last, was posted to-day. It ehows 53,472 bu wheat, of all grades ; 370,800 bu corn; 192,000 bu oats; 53,825 bu rye; and 140,- 600 bu barley. The Registrar’s figures show nearly the eame for oats, rve, and barley ; but in wheat the Registrar gives 169,734 bu; and in corn, 479,440 bu, for these houses. The differences are 116,262 bu wheat, and 108,640 bu corn. The figures of the Registrar have been carried 2long ever sinco tho beginning of Octo- Yer, 1571, without any report from the proprie- tors of those clevators till now; and the only check obtained in all that time was the measure- ment taken by the Iuspectors of Grain some three months ago, which was confessedly im- perfect in their case. These figures skow that Munn & Scott were credited with the amount of 116,262 bu wheat, and 103,640 bu corn, more than they had in their Thouses, ; but they do not_show how much the ‘balance ageinst them was increased by the excess of the Munn & Scott pepor efioat over and above the amounts of grain hitherto supposed to be in store in their houses. Combining these figures with the fact that Georgo Armour & Co. have recently retired corn paper to the extent of 475,000 bu, we find ~that Munn & Scott were behind 336,000 bushels of corn at the date of our firo; the rest of the loss has accrued sinco then. That is at the rate of above 120,000 bushels per year, from the beginning of 1868, ‘when they seem to have first floundered. Afthe same rate it would have taken these enterprising gentlemen just six years longer fo have out paper representing the average stock of corn in all the elevators in the city, with not & singlo ‘bushel of the grain here to meet calls for ship- ment. It was about time to put on the brakes. With this littlo understending, the corn state- ment is clear enough. But there is still a diffi- culty in vheat. Aunn & Scott are understood to have admitted that they were behind on wheat to the extent of 20,000 bu, and George Armour & Co. have since then retired receipts for 40,000 bu. Adding in the 10,000 bu which the last named firm repudiates, and we still havo nearly GO{,MD bu of wheat that is unaccounted for. fho feelingis growing on 'Change that it is ‘mecesgary to the avoidance of distrust in the fu- ture, that we should have a plain statement of the amout of grain paper out agumst, as well ag of the grain Leld by, cach elevator firm in tho city ; 2nd there are many operators on the floor, as well as traders off it, who will not be satis- fied with anything less. It is probable that tho warehousemen would willingly consent to make such a statement, if it were called for, in justice to themselves, as well as to the community. There was a rumor on the floor to-day to the esicet that charges are, or will be, preierred to the Board of Directors of the Board of Trade ageinst Munn & Scott. It is only fair thatthosa gentlemen should have an opportunity to vindi- cate t].\emelves before their old commercial 2s- sociates. THE MABEETS. Tho leading produce markets wero decidedly firmer to-day, oxcept in barley. Tho panicky fecling in breadstuffs noted yesterdey, hed sub- sided, thongh Liverpool was quoted lower, and New York not much betier. The wesk- ness noted here yesterdsy was principally duc 1o the fear of heavycash deliveries,for which the receivers could not obtain money to pay. Tho ‘weaker ones unloaded, in consequence; and the stronger ones found, to-day, that the urgency of the gituation had been magnified by their fears, The shipping movement was again quict, and reported receipts of produce wers light, The grocery market presonted fow new fen- tures. Coffces were oxcited and tending high- er, with which cxception thero wero no changes deserving special mention. The amount of cof- fee destroyed in the Boston fire is estimated at 21,000 bage, or_nearly one=fourth of the entiro stock in the United States. “This will undoubt- edly result in asharp advance in the price of this staplo, though no changes havo, as yet, been made In the quotations in this market. Sugars advanced an 3¢ in New York to-duy, and the market here was stronger in sympathy. Syrups and spices were feirly active and steady. Teas were quict and wnclanged. Some 15,000 balf- chests were desi_ved in Boston, but this will not have any appreciable effect upon the market Lere. In thie dry moods trade more animation ‘was witnessed, and prices generzlly were firmer. Our jobbers are now prepared to fill all orders L litlle or no delay, and the cond’w.on of the market is much moro satisfactory than on the closing days of last week. Tho butter and cheess merkets were dull, and less firm, but without decided change in values. Fish ruled quiet and firm at former quotations. The demand has fallen off somo recently, but stocks are not excessive, and dealers are insist- ing upon full rates. Dried fruite remain guiet and unchanged. Hay was dull and weak at tho Into declize.. The demand was mainly confined to supplying current local wants, and prices wero being freely shaded. No improvement wasnotice- able in the hide market. There were fow buyers, and sales were meinly at inside and me- dim fgures. Leather was pominally bigher, ow- ing to tho large quantity destroyed, on Sunday Iast, in Boston. Oils remain quiet, with little or no chenge in values. Paints, tobacco, and wood Wore unchanged. There was 10 change in boots and_shoes, except a firmer fecling in rubber foods, and fur-lined material for winter wear. The effect of the fire on boots and shoes wiill principally be felt in epring_goods, owing to the immense guantities of uppers destroyed. Bailding materials continue in fair demand at Yormer prices. Cooperago was quict and steady 2t provious quotations, Trade at the lumber yards was fairly active, prices being without ma- ferial change. Iron, uails, and tinners’ stock were in fair demand and steady at recent rates. Prime hops were in fair request at 22@30c. Salt continuesin good demand and_is quite firm at | firmer at $1.02. settled, but is very firm with a strong upward tendency, Dealers estimate the amount of wool consumed in the Boston fire to amount to about 11,000,000 1bs, the bulk of .which is believed to be domestic fleece. Seeds were quiet to-day; timothy weak at $2.80@2.65 for prime. Clover was firm at 35.00@5.10. Fiax was quiet 2t $1.50@1.55. Choico peachblow potatoes were in fair demand 2t 50@55c. deliv- ered; 35@45c on track. Pouliry and game wero in fair supply with easier prices. Apples wero in good request for home consumption and ship- ments. Other fruit in moderate demand at former prices. Highwines were less active, but firm at the outside quotation of yesterday, being quoted stronger in New York. ~Sales wero reported of 200 brls at 90¢ per gallon, Lake freights were dull at yesterday's decline, shippers bidding 1c less rather freely, but were obliged to pay the full rate, or go without ves- sels. Rates to Buffalo were 10c on wheat, and 9c on corn. A total of 7 charters'was reported, which will carry out 55,000 bu wheat, 90,000 bu corn, and 120,000 bu onfs. Freights_on provisions per 100 Ibs (meats) are_quoted at 70c to Boston, -65c to New York, 60c to Baltimore, 2nd 90c in specie to Liv- erpool via Boston. Provisions were dull and weak, with few changes in prices. Mess pork was inactive; options, 2ud old pork for present delivery, wore quoted steady, while new moss was esdier, in sympathy with a reported declinoinbhogs. Lard was taken to some extent, and quoted steady. Meats were in more demand, but buyers wanted Cconcessions, and holders were apparently moro anxious to gell, so that we slightly reduce somo of our quotations, especially on hams, both porkand beef. The weather is still pleasant, 2and packers are not working their horses freely, Tence the receipts of hogs aro greater than tho demand. 'The market closed at the following range of prices : Mess pork, old held at $15.00; new pork, $13.50@18.75; do seller the month nominal at $13.00; do seller December, $12.40@ 12.50; do seller January, 812.40@12.50; do sellor Tebruary, nominal;_do seller March, $12.40@ 12.45; do seller April, $12.50@12.60.

Tlour was_dull, hut quoted unchanged. It was reported heavy in New York, aud 6d per brl lower in Liverpool, which was cause enough for shippers to hold off, unless they could obtain concessions, which holders were not disposed to grant. There was a little buying for the local trade. Bran was dull and lower, a sure sign that the horse disease is abating—they do not feed warm mashes as much as last wecl Bales were reported of 300 brls white winter ex- tras on private terms; 50 brls spring extras at £6.00; 800 brls do.on’ privato_terms; 100 brls superfines at $3.75; 100 brls rye flour (St. Louis) at $4.00; 200 brls do on privato terms ; 50 bris buckwheat (Early Riser) et £6.50; 50 brls corn meal at £2. Total, 1,650 brls. Also 10 tons bran at $12.50 on track; 20 tons do at $12.00, on track. Whenkwas less active, indeed, dull daring tho greater part of tho season, but firm at about the Gutside prices of yesterday, though quoted at 2@4d per 100 Ibs lower in Liverpool and neglect- ed in New York. The Ehipfiem were more active then yesterday, buyingall grades as offered, being ‘stimulated by the fact that freights are low compared with what they were recently, and that our stocks are much less than was sup- posed, while tho stocks in sight from the seaboard promise that Now York will ‘begin the winter with but little wheat on hand. Tho great cause of the firmness was, Lowever, the fact that the weak holders all sold out yes- terday, and some of those who sold short then, expecting a big drop, bought.in to-day, finding that they had exaggerated the cffects of tho Boston fira upon the produce mar- Yets. Seller the month opened at $1.0214, advanced to £1.03%¢, declined to $1.02, and closed Seller December was rela- tively stronger, being at 1c premium over No- vember. It sold at $1.03@1.04, closing at 81033{. Seller last half do sold at $1.04%, and seller January at 31.04@1.05%.

Total, 133,000 bu. . Corn was active, and very firm, averaging 3{c higher than yestorday, and touching the highest point known for some’ months past, though re- ported 6d per 480 1bs lowor in_Liverpool. The strength was due to the knowledgo of the fact that our stock is much smaller than has beon supposed, and that thero is now more confidenco in’ the integrity of our corn receipts than formerly, while our arrivals nro light, and shipments frco. Taking into account the ‘movement sinco the stocks were taken on Satur- dey last, we have now scarcely a million of bushels of all grades 1n store, and, probably, will not receive much mora this month, 88 it will pay to keep the 'mew corn in the country for fomo time yet, to harden. The shippers bought to-duy to o fair extent, but the bulk of the trad- ing was on speculative account. Seller the month opened at 313¢e, and advanced to 32c at the ':E.)sc. - Seller December eold at 203{@31%c, closing at the outside. Strictly fresh receipts sold at J4@2{c premium oyer gellor the month, and eotae shippers were willing to_ pay the same premium for ‘regular,” to bo delivered “right away.” Rejected was firmer at 20c.

These statements of increment and decre- ment are probably correct, though the state- ments of stocks in store are wide of the truth, us they aro made up from the books of thé Grain Registrar, without taking into the account the statement made by George Armour & Co., of the stocks in the warehouses of the late firm of Munn & Scott. Taking the latteras our basis, the stocks of wheat in this city on Saturday lest were 658,540 bu, and of corn 1,180,697 bu. Oadt, rye, tud barley are unaffect- ed, the statements being substantially the same in both cages. The Grain Registrar appended a note to his return made to-day, to the effect that there is a difference between his figures and thoso of George Armour & o, and that Lo will investigate and report.

The Springfield, Mass., Republican says: * Western freight facilities were the topic of discussion at » meoting of the New England Shoe and Leather Association at Boston. yes- terdsy. The Committee to consider the subject presented a report which was mainly a setting forth of the necessity for increased accommoda- tions and a plea for the continued support of the Vermont Central. In 1871 the shoo and leather tonnage, mostly from East to West, over that road amounted to 220,000,000 pounds of hide and leather, and 1,636,152 cages of boots and shoes, altogether 84,696,000 tons of freight for one mile. The report acknowlodges that ‘“tho independence of the Vermont Central’ has often ‘preserved the trade from ruinous freight rates, and would regard the crippling of the road as a spublic calamity ;' also, like everything Boston- ian, looks forward to the time when Boston will bo 50 miles nesrer the great Northwest and one day’s sail nearer China than New York,—and, of coiirse, one day nearer Europe.” Scudder, Bartlett & Co., grain receivers, of Boston, have taken issue with the Boston & Al- bany Railroad, rofusing to pay freight bills an- Toss the Cam;i‘my will allow for shortage. They say: “We have submitted to this specics of robbery as long 08 we feel inclined to, and ~mow, laving been tlus forced fo it, take tho stand that, as common carriers, the rnilroads are liable and shonld be held responsible for failure to deliver property entrusted to them, in like good order and quuntity as received by them ; - that when W0 can prove & certain quantity ahi? ed in o car at the West, we aro entitled to a liko quantity doli\"arad us here or payment for the short- age.” ‘The railroed officials have refused to deliver irc_i]ghb to the firm, unless the charges are pre- pai St. Louis in rejoicing in the fact that sheis now heving clovators built within her limits, and that an English company has been formed to cover the levee, from the bridge to Chouteau street, with an iron wharf. ~The JDemocrat thinks that at least “St. Louis will share with Chicago, the vast grain trade of the Mississippi Basin,” This is a little moro reasonable than the cavortings of the miscalled friends of St. Louis, who, till recently, would be satisfied with nothing less than that sho should take from Chicago tho whole of her trade and commerco. It is pleasans to find that St. Louis ’has a paper sensible cnough to sce that there is room for both Chicago and St. Louis in this “ wide, wide world.” The Boston Bullefin says: *“In 1860 there were, in tho United States, 140,433 manufactur- ing establishments of all descriptions; in 1870 tho number had grown to 252,143, or neatly doubled. At the former date, these employed 1,311,246, while in 1870 the whole number of hiands was 2,053,988, a proportion of increase slightly less than at the beginning of the decado, showing the average number employed in each establishment to have somewhat increased. The annual cost of labor in 1860 was $378,878,~ 966, an avorago of 23004 to ovaty person em- ployed. In 1870 the whole amount thus paid in wages was $775,621,593, giving an average of $372.65 to each of tho 2,053,988 employes. This shows an average incréaso of $83.71 in the annual pay of each operative, it being under- stood that this affords no criterion of tho amount paid to workmen and women, because in tho census returns boys and girls, whose compensation i often merely nominal, rank with * full hands.” ““Let us look stitl further. _In 1860, the total ‘yalue of all manufactures produced in this coun- try was $2,346,864,216, something moro than the present amount of the pational debt, In 1870, the aggregate was £4,232,625,892, an incrense of very nearly one hundred per cent. From tho samo table it appears that the smount of caEiml invested in manufacturing enterprises has about doubled in the decade wo are considering.” LATEST.

CATTLE—There was a decidedly better feel~ ing in the cattle market to-day. The sharp ad- vance in New York, Albany, and other Esstern markets restored, £o a certain extent, the confi- denco of all claskes of operators, and trading ‘was on a more liberal scalo than on any previous day within the past fortnight. The fresh re- ceipts were moderate, but, taken in connection with the stalo cattle market, swelled the supply to fair proportions, and the wants of the trade were amply met. Shippers, feeders, and local ‘buyers tere liberal operators, and by the middle of the afternoon the great bulk of the offerins had een dis~ posed of, eales muking at $2.50@6.00 for thin through Texan caitle and inferior natives, to choice smooth shipping steers. The advance in native cattle averaged fully 25c per 100 Ibs, while in Texans the appreciation was even more pronounced, reachirlg in some instances 50@ per 100 1bs.” Whether or not the improvement shall be sustained depends upon, the character of the supply.
