6 HICAGO DALILY TRIBUNL HURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1873 MONEY AND COMMERCE. MONETARY. ; WRDNTADAY EvEyina, Dec, 17, The monetary situstlon improves atoadily. Lonuablo funds are becoming abundant in all parts of tho country, snd the genornl movement, of all kinds of crops fa na sctive as it over s at this soason of tho yoar. 'I'hs s not only truc lu rogord to the grain and Log crops of the West, but ls oqually so in rogard to tho cotton crop. T'he panio, of course, crused b tomporary coRri- tion in tho cotton movoment, both of rocoipts [romn tho country and of oxports, But siuco tho goneralievival of Lusinoss tho cotton movoment hns rovived ou o soalo that s fast ovorcoming tho hiatus mado by the panio. 'ho totnl reoeipts of cotton nt all the principal seaports since Bopt.1 up to Doo. 13, wero 1,093,180 bales, nyguinst 1,101,202 balos for tho corresponding no- rod of 1872, Dut, a8 bofors romacked, the ro- cont incroaso of recoipts is fast oxtinguishing tho deflelency na compnred with laat yoar, Tho racoipts for tho wook onding Doo. 12 wero 173, 910 balor, against 125,604 for tho unfl'uflrnmlhl wweek of Inst year, and tho exports for tho weak ending Doc, 12 woro 77,165 bulos, ngainst 63,785 bales for tho corrospouding week of last year, For noarly two wooks _now, eurroncy has boon owing froely from Now York to tho Bouth, and the reeuperation of business fo that art of tho couutrs is ns positive as it I8 in tho Vost. Tho freo export movoment of thig groat staple, togotlior with tho continued do- mend for Western products, whoat, corn, pork, ate., oto., and tho smnll volumo of imports of forgign goods, are still makmg the balanco of trado with foroiyn countrios in our favor, and st cauge still’ furthor shipmouts of specie troin Englaud to this country, ‘The sctivomove- went of the crops of both tiie Wost and South are making money more plenty, and helping tho liynidation of fudoblodness ™ throughout the ronntry. ", a8 far a8 the commetcial affairgof tho sountry are concornod, evorything indicates that not only aro the offects of the panic divappear- ing, but thut bofora spring poople will wonder shat thioy over took so gloomy o view of affairs 13 they did » month ago, It s now the goneral boliof in tho Enstorn citios that nioney tmust con= tinuo vory easy all winter. The Now York City banits at6 not only accommodating themorchauly Iieoly, but bave roturned to_their old policy of loaniug largely on call. Two wacks Lonco, also, thera _ will bogin an outpouring of at least 875,000,000 of interosi and dividands. The Governmeut slono must pay out $26,- 533,219 of gold intorost, £2,000,000° of currency intorost, sud probably $20,000,000 in redemption of (he Londs of 1874, Boeides this is tho intor- sst on Lha various State aud city debts, which ia a0 boing ield in bank preparatory Lo this dis- sursement, Che Govornment ulso Las jow embarked in tho polioy of iu- Inting tho ourrancy, and thers is no yrospact that this will stop until $20,000,000 n0:0 aro issued. Whon it is remombered that it ook nemly a year for Scoretury MeCullooh to sontract the €44,000,000 now being pald out 1gain, and that this fs _the ouly roal lncrenso of vuper currency in tho lnat ning yonrs (tho $54,~ 300,008 increasio of National Bauk notos was ac~ tompanied by an nrlmnl coutraction of green- aneks), It is reasvnablo to oxpece that it will Linve w_jmportant effect to stimulato B{lnflulnflflll tnd ndyauce the price of gold, In view of tho probability that tho currency will doprecinto in Sonsoquonco of tho jullation, thoro will of courde 36 o greater disposition than usual to buy com- xoditios this winter, But oven this will not ‘urnfeli investment for all the monay that will oseeking omployment by the end of Jauuary. Ievoral of the Now York papots arguo that thero sill bo Inrger invostments this winter than 1sual in Goverument bonds and in raiiroad itocks that bear a good character, but it must be remombored that Governmant bouds are alrondy aigh, aud tbat the number of railronds of shich it can bo predicated that thoy are wnoslly monaged for the iuterost of ‘ho atookhioldors is very small. The genoral dis- sredit which has fallon'on all American railrond \acuritios in Europesn morkels scome, howovor, ‘0 be moro dillicult to removo than any other ro- it of the pauie, and will probably proveut fora ong time the recovery of Amovioun rallway stocks to the prices curront four mounths ago. Tho numerous dafalcations of Btato, city, sud tounty oftiewuls, and of baulk caskiors, has ulso shulsen contidenca in Stato sud munioipal bouds, >ank stogks, insurance stocks, cle., eto, ‘Lhis & brought homo to us hore b Chleazo by ro- :ent events, which, it is apparont, must \lect the valuo of Chicago city bouds unfavor- iiy, and also by the roport to-day that the jouth Park Commissioncrs had failed to nogo- jinte their bonds in Now York, as they had antici- sated. Thene ure only two out of a grout num- jor of incidents all ‘over tho country, all of which sustain tho opinion thut there will be less lisposition this winter than over leforo to in- rast_wmonoy in coiporato, stocks, or iu State or wnunicipnl bonds. 7 "o sum up briefly tho wholo situation as pro- sentod above, it appesrs that the uu‘m)y of 'unds is likely to be largor thun usual this “win- ser, fzom tho fact that the ordinery monns of mvestment buve boen greally diminished, and shiat idlo capital will bo ~obliged to seok -invost- uent in commercial Joans, real estato mortgnges, w in_ tho purchase of real ostate, or of cow- nodities of ane kind or another. Now York exchange coutinues sbundant in his market at 60¢ por 1,000 discount. T'he do- nund for currency to go to the country, how= wvor, obliges somo banks to soll oxchuuyo, sud 1o 8 toudoney to dopress tho price.
