CHICAGO DAILY 'CRIBUNE: WED MONEY AND COMMERCE MONETARY. TurspAx Fyexino, Bept, 0, The most prominont foatnro of the local monoy market continuos to bo tho flow of our- ronoy to tho country. Tho movomont {3 some- what diminishied from what 1t waa last wook, but Ta atill 5o largo that nearly nll tho bauks Loro aro ordoring currency from Now York, T'ho contin- ned demsnd for curronoy indieates that the yol- wumo of buslness in tho markoting of graln is still on tho incronso, aud if the recolpts of grain woro not pirendy up to the full eapacity of tho rallronds, thoy might bo oxpeotod to incronso, Tho doposits 1t tho banks in this clty koop up romarkably well, and though thore s been somo decronze in tho loanablo funds, monoy is casy yot ot tho banke, In the open market thero is moro paper offering, and the aupply of funds 1s not so lnrgo. i Now York oxchange was considorably flrmor to-dny, with buyors at 76c per $1,000 discount, but fow scllora at that. Tt s n natoworthy fact thet for saveral days pnst Northwostorn common stock has ""f’"‘l ot ubout tho sauie prico s Erio, which has for so many years been the foot-ball of Wall stroet. THE DEOLINE OF GOLD, IT8 CAURES AND THEIR BIGNIFICANCE. Thonotablodeclinoin the promiumon gold from 116, & fow days ngo, to 119 to-day, is only ono of tho rosults of tho commeroial prosporily of the country, Moat Fuoplu aro roady to ascribe the declino to the failure of the gold alique in Now York, but this is o mistake, Tho ollquo failod bocauso gold was bound to docline nny- how. Tho liquo was undoubtedly as powerful a8 any that ne boon organized in Wall stroob for n long timo, But tho declino of gold was inavitablo, and the cliquo did wonders to de- lay its downward progross at all, In the Norse “mythology, when Thor went to the city of As- gard, bo was offored o drinkivg-horn” full of wator, with tho intimation that auch men as lived in Asgard alwoys drained it at a slnglo draught, ‘Thor dennk and drank, with all the forty-horao drinkiug capncity of o Scandinavian god, but found 1t impossible to drain tho horn, Ho af- terwards found that ono end of tho horn was conneoted with the ses, and that though his mighty drinking had actually coused, for Bu in- stant, a declino in tho sea loyel, ho should have to drain the son to drain tho cup. Tho fiom clique had roally undertakon task almost as impossible. Tho cauncs of the decline of gold are to be found in tho unusually hoavy exports of domestic products this sum- mor, and the Hfihmr imports of foroign goods. This has caused an incronsio in this uountl’l of that kind of wenlth ropresented by bank oredits, which are availablo for circulation, This is capi- tal for which bank-ohccks, drafts, bills of ox~ change, banl-notos, and groenbecks aro required as * countors,” or measures of quantity moro thon of . quality. In ndditiou] [to this, the activity of intornal trado in tho wmovement of tha crops and the consequont domand for cnrmna{ to circulnto from hand to hand, bave appreciated tho valuo of groonbacke snd National Bank notes, bocauso tho volume of them is fixed, whilo tho kind of capital thoy roprcsent hao incroased. Tho “decline of gold," or more proporly the appreciation of tho currency, was fnevitablo, This appreciation of the curreney is, howover, nlrendy causing o decline in the currency prices of commoditios. The prico of wheat, for in- stance, in Livorpool, romaing the samo as it was boforo tho declino of gold. But green- Dbaclks, which & fow days ngo wore only worth 861 in gold, aro to-day worth 801, and tile ship- | per of whoat to Liverpool canuot afford to give #o much in fimunhnckfl Ly 4 conts o bushol as he could a weolt ago. This doclino must soon of- foct prices of nll kinds of commodities sold for greenbacks, though it does not affoot all at tho snmo time, The oxportable domestic products facl it at oneo, imported goods noxt, and artiolos manufacturcd and consumed exclusively in this couutry, last, Tho doclinie which bas nlrendy affeoted tho prices of Westorn products would, in tho courso of n fow months, nffect the prices of imported goods, and oventually also home-manufactured goods. But nlready we soo signs of a clamor for morecurrency o8 a proventative of the decline of rices. ‘Tho farmors will imagino that it isn el of currency that causes tho dealino in prices, and will insist ihat Congreso shall in somo way dilute tho volume of currency so nstodeprociate its valuo ngnin. The importers snd tho monufacturers, lmowing that tho decline in Yricuu will inevitably roach their goods, will 2dd their voices to tho clamor. Plenty of ‘mor- couary political hacks will bo found to be their spolcsmon, and thus it ia not improbablo that by tho timo Congresn meots thoro will be a prossuro organized to hove an incrosso of cur Tency, dn tho old plea that the volume of cur- roncy is insufticiont to transact the businoss of the country, A sufficiont answer to_this argn- mont s, that tho currency is doprecinted mainly bocause it is redundant, and that it 18 morc than eufliciont for tho business of tho country ns. long as it ia dopreciated, Bub this dootrine, though na true as truth itself, is not popular, ~The fact is that , while everybody is thooretically in faver of » roturn to specio paymonts somotime, they aro novor ready tobogin, Tho littlo taste that we shall got of tho progress towards spocio pay- ments this fall by the dacling of gold (whlc’f. 5 likoly to continue), will make an outery for an- otherginflation of some kind to deprociatotho value of the currcucy. If it should succeed, tho busincss community will ostensibly lamont, and the nowspapors will bo full of denuncia-~ tions of tho * gold gamblots,” swho aro thus al- ways mado tho scapegoats for the bad faithof the peopla. p The fall of 1871 was not noar so promising in tho nspenlu of our foreign trade as the presont fall. "T'ho crops of nouo of the leading domestio prodncts waro ko large, and tho foreign domand ivas not near go nctivo ns it promises to bo this {all, And yet, in the fall of f87l, tho heavy ox- ports _of cotton, broadstuffs, and potroloum caused gold to deelina from 114 aud 115 in Sep- tomber and QOctobor to 10814 in tho last half of Decembor. Tho prospect is that thero will bo a correspouding effect this year, and it Is not im- probulle thit, boforo 1874, gold may touch a oyor prico than for eleven years past. The probabilities are that no moré favorablo timo for tho insuguration of some monsuro 28 o step to @pecic rosumption will aver como, If tho opportunity is allowed to slip, tho peoplo of the United Btatos might as well (}ml talking about specio payments, and ace knowledge theroe ia no intention fo resumo. “Phero 14, however, ouo way in which Congresa may comply with the popular demand for ‘“1more currency,"” which we bolicve is even now being stirred up in auticipation of the noxt win- ter's possion, viz: Roturn to tho much-abused, but sound, financial policy of Socrotary McCul loch, and contract tho volume of groonbacks (ot =4,000,000) "but ey, 3,000,000, "por month. At tho samo " time, remove nll logal rostrictions on the volume of Natlonal Bank circulation, Lot overy bank in overy part of the country have all tho circulation it can ub up United Btates bonds to socure. If the Nntional Bauk currenoy should increase attho rate of, sny 60,000,000 por annum, the green- backs wonld docroase At the rato of §86,000,000 por annum, and in throo years we should have an Bggregate of $600,000,000 of National Bunk notos, and $250,000,000 of grecnbacks, or $50,000,000 more_papor mongy than at prosent, But with this increaso of National Bauk ciroulation, and tho increaso of National Bank deposits that wonld necossarily follow, nearly the wholo of tho 250,000,000 of greenbacky would be held in tha vaulls of {ho batka oy rosorves, and groonbacks would Lo at par with gold, and stay there, LOCAL STOCK AND DOND MARKET.
