Tho nows from New York tinged the situation here “with a deeper gloom than yesterdny, though the effect on Western produce was gon= erally rogarded as only temporary. Tho ship- ping movement was impaeded by the fact that it was lmpossiblo to draw on New York for ceash aguinst grain forwarded, or evon to sell Now York exchange, and tho markets were furthor depressod by the mccuninry sttingoncy hore, which forcod many holdors to realizo, snd kopt oub meny persons who would @ havo beea. buyers under en ordinary condition of the ‘money market, Thoro was, how- ovor, ttle of the forced selling out noted yesiordny, Tho reportod shipmonts of yester- duy wero large, and oxceodod the recoipts; they hand been nnsnged for beforo the crosh at tho Tust., Tho reccipts of to-doy were lsrge for the same roason.
