THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: IFRIDAY, AUGUST 15, 1873. 6 MONEY AND COMMERCE MONETARY. TruusnAs EVENING, Avg. 14, Now York oxchango was woskor to-dny, and sold at 250 to Sc per $1,000 premium. Monoy is abundant yet in this mnrkot, but, nas| mentioned yosterday, londors aro discriminating ton groator ostont than usunl ngainet a lorgo lnes of chronfe borrowers, whoso dnily business §u to borrow from Tetor to pay Paul, and from Toul to pay Potor.

Thoro {8 somo now whoat coming into this market, but it is ovident from tho light- woss of tho curroncy movement that there has beon no oxtensive proparation for tho immedi- ‘ato movemont of tho now erop. Tho unusual activity in the domand for ocenn freights at Now York Is indicativo of lnrgo ox- ports and a good domand for Wostern products, But tho high freights on the ocenn have, of course, the samo offect on valuos of Western products ns high railrond frolghts from tho Wost to tho son-board, Thoro is, Lowover, thisdifferonce: that, whilo thorailroads bave o monopoly of the land-transportation, thoro {8 no monopoly on tha son oxcopt in 8o far =88 our own outrageous probibitory lawain re- gord to tho Amorican ownorship of vossels pre- ‘vonts Amorican ship-ownora from participating intho business, and to that extout provents compotition. Tho present high freights from Now York to Liverpool will, Lowever, probably drasy vosscla from foroign ports and eventually mako a reduction in freights, which will result to the bouofit of tho producers in tho West, Tho prosont henvy exports of products from all tho Atlantic ports make it more than proba- Llo that gold will declino largely this fall notwithstanding tho porsistont offorts of tho bulls in Wall stroat, The timo of yoar when a igo in tho prico of gold might bo oxpoctod has passed. How much offoct tho payment of the 15,600,000 of tho Goueva award will have on tho gold mnrkot nobody but the membors of the B_\’usicn!e can toll, bocause nono but thoy know how much actun! gold will bo used in the trans- naction j-but, cven aside from tho paymont of this indemnity, which must mnko o Jarge amonnt of storling oxchango to come on the markot yot, the balanco of foreign trade is in our favor, and will incvitably cause an important decline in the price of gold bofora the close of the year A REVOLUTION IN TIIE IMON TRADR of Gront Dritain and tho United Statos sooma to Lo in progress, Tho latost British trado returns show an cnormous falling off in tho oxports of overy doscription of iron from that country to thin, It appesrs that during tho firet six months of 1872, when tho iron trade was in its ususl condition, Englond oxportod to the United Statos 444,000 tons of nll descriptions of iron, The great chango since thonis shown by the' fuct that for tho first six months of 1873 the total amount of iron oxported from Gront Drit- ain to tho United States was only 228,000 tous, Uho eauso of tho decreaso in our importas tionn is partly tho continued riso in tho prico of iron in England, snd partly also to the competition of the iron~ mnators of tho United States, Tho publieation of tho reports of the Burvau of Statistics of tho Unitod States—which "correspond to tho Trade Rotarus of Great Britain—in alwnys somuch bo- hind timo that we bave no moans of muking satisfactory compariton of ihe two official re-°| orts. Tho Dritish Trade Neturns, just pub. ished, bring tho ntatistics down to June 80, while our own_oflicial statintics, just Lmbllulm«i for the proceding niug months, only bring tho Gigures down to March 81, At this lattor datetho revolution in tho iron trado hind not_becomo to upparonttu it did in April, Moy, snd Juuo. But, from the Washington report to March 81, o fin thoro wore ome important indications of the chango in the firat threo months of this year os compared with the same time lust yeor. Thus, tho total imports of raurond iron into tho United Btatos in the firut threo movths of 1872 wore 129,138,006 pounds, while in tho firet threo months of 1873 the total im- poits of railroad iron were only 86,859,616 ponnds, & failing off of one-third, This’ falling off way, however, made up, to a considerable extont, by an incroaso of importations of steel rails, of which thoro were only 40,669,060 pounds imported in the first threo months of 1872, Bgaiust 68,914,048 pounds In the first three mouths of 1873, Thore was also an Incroaso of 9.000,000 pounds of bar irou, and 4,000,000 pounds of pig-iron, in the importationd of the lirut three months of 1873 a8 comimrod with the Bame period of 1872, It apponrs, theroforo, that the great chongo in the iron trade shown by the Byitieh Trade Roturns hnas beon mnde mainly in tho last threo mouths, Tho British officfal report shows that for the half yeor the decrenso of oxportations from that country to this in- cludow ol descriptions of iron, Viz.: pig, bar, railrond, rod, and wiro, and also all deseriptions of stoal. Ono of tho causes of tho immeuso fall- Iug off i our imports of railrond iron is un- doubtedly tho decline of the fever of railroad- building in the Unitod States,—in fact it was tho onnia to build railronds in this country during 1870, '71, and '72 that induced tho great importy of railroad and_othor descriptions” of iron in thoso years, This was also what stimulated all other manufactures of iron in this country to an oxtent that hus pince mada ~ them such importsnt compotitors of Eng- glisk manufactorers. Undor the mnusual domand for all descriptions of iron-work during 1871 and 1872 manufacturers in this countr wero induced to build extensive works, which thoy aro obliged to koep running, becauso, if thioy stop, the machinery and buildings aro un- sulublo, and soon depreciato very largoly in valuo. ~ Tho railroad-manis has loft us this logacy : that it obligos tho iron manufacturors of this country to como more into competition with thoso of Great Britain for tho supply of do- mnugn for other kinds of iron-work, or else shut up shop. A chango of thomagnitudo indicated by tho Brit- Ish Trade Returns must oventuslly have an im- portant effecton commercinl affaira in Gront Brit- &in, and it is not improbable that thorocont falling off in the British rovenus may be in- diractly attributablo to the troubles in tho iron trade. ‘The chango in the trade is too rocout to forewco ita_whole effects yet. It may, howover, bo safoly assumod that thoy will not 'bo favorable to tho general com- mercial prospority of Groat Britain, LOCAL BTOCK AND BOND MARKET, Mosars.
