THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: TUESDAY, FEBRUARY "10, 1874, MONEY AND COMMERCE. MONETARY. Monpay Evexma, Fob, 0. Monoy oontinucs to grow moro abundant, niok only in thelocal market, but all over the coun+ try. As montioned in our articlo of Baturday, A good many monoy-londors admit the probability of lower rates of interest bofora long, at lonst in tho opon market. Tho banks will, of courso, malntain tholr rates of discount nominally at 10 por cont, na they do systemotically, But the thoaper rates for monoy in the opon market will draw borrowors thore instend of to the banks, snd the lattor will, in default of sufiiciont om- ployment for their fands, buy the paper through brokers, Tho ongo in monoy has onabled the pork and provision men to float their spec- ulation until it s said the country has boon drained of noarly all tho roally marketublo hogs, snd that thero is nothing left” to como in now but poor stock, oud, in view of the fact that but Littlo, if any, moro monoy can bo employod in thia direction, poople aro boginning to quory a8 to what new spooulativo chaunel will bo found for it. Thoro is till & freo movoment of curroncy to Ilml lmmnh—y, ‘thiough tho roceipts are abont equal toit, Now York exchango was sold at 760 por $1,000 discount to-day. The incronsing supply of money has at length pausod n conalderablo rise in the prices of United Btates bonds and railway stocks. As was men- tioned In our New York dlsl‘unehou of Enmrduy\ tho savinga-banke, and also the commaorcin! panks, of that eily find it impossiblo to loan their monoy, and linve gono into tho market to buy bonda ns an inveatment for tho monoy. Tiis hios hiad the effect to advance tho price of all Governmont_bonds, oxcopt 1881g, about 1i¢ .vor_cont ainco this day a weok ago.” Tho 5-208 of_1864 have advauced 2 5‘“ cont. Northwestorn preferred stock adyvanced 5 por pont snd Rock Island about 43¢ per cont last woelr, but, with theso excoptions, tho advance in tho pricos of railway stocks in tho Jast weok has not boen oqual to that in Governmont bonds, Railway stooks aro, ‘howsvor, now just about as high ns thoy aver- od in tho Lo months bofore tho panic; but thero is probably less confidence i them than thoro way then, owing to the foars that somo of the great railwsy corporations havo not yab Deen able to sell tho bonds of their now branch roads in the Western Torritories. Henco tho ‘proference for Government bonds. Gold was stronger at tha olose of laat weok, on tho anticipations of troublo in councction with the probable change in the Miniatry in En- gland, and on sensatioual reports n rogard to the relations of Franco and Gormany, and the possibility of & rupture, To-day, gold was lugher ‘again, and was quotod at 112} ngainst 11354, at which it had stood more steadily for soveral wweoks than it hns done at any one price for & yoar or two before, It is dificult to see how a chango of adminiatration in England cen affoct finances n the United States, unless it should be Ly creating o feoling of distrust in financisl ciroles in London that would induco tho Bank of England to strengthen 1tself in specio, and thus oause an oxport of specie from_ this country, But the nbundance of money in the United States, and tho conseqnent disposition to spocu- Iate In somothing, is probably ot the bottom of thoso anticipations, Mesers.
