6 THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: FRIDAY. OCTOBER 5, 1877. FINANCE AND TRADE. A Quiot Day Among the Banks-«-Light- er Currency Movement. Varjous Explanations of the Duil- ness in Wall Stroet. The Produce Markets Less Active and Ir- regular, but Generally Btronger, ~ Zosslble Corner In Pork---Dreadstufls In Falr Demand, The Wheat Question FINANCIAL. Transactiona in banking circles wers Ices sctlve then on the preceding daysof the week. Whilo the offerings of paper by the city customers of tha bank bave incressed, the applications from the country banks for rediscounts have diminished. Merchanta are borrowing more, but otber customers lens. The currency movement to the interlor bias slackencd perceptibly. Altogether the financial sitaation fs dall and aninteresting, and a good waye remored from the mctive if not stringent money market that was Jooked for thia fall. - Raten of dlsconnt were BZ10 per cent ta regular customers, On the street, call lu on frst-class coliaterals can Lo negotisted at & per cent, and good time loana at 0337 per cent. New York exchange was sold between banks at a discount of shivping rates, The clearings were 84,400, 000, WALL STREET NOT A FOPULAR RESORT. Al he reporta from Wall atreet agrce that the general pablic have refased to respond to the Invi~ tationn of tho stock epeculators Lo step in aud buy, The New Yurk Evening Post says: ‘'t Is evident tbat the moneyed public are not yet prepared to Doy stocks slnply hecause of the large busincas, prescent and prospective, of the rords, Instead of Laying they are, to thie extent that they are dotng saything, rcliing stocks, bat the selllog movement of shares by Investora during the Tast thirty daye Los not been as large as during the preceding six ‘weeks, when prices were belog jumped from day toduy, The disclosures of corporats mlsmanage- ment and the fear that, as the outcome of the rall- road labor troubles, the regulation of ralirondemay ‘become 8 political matter, and as such that it will not be treated wisely, together afford sufficient reason why sabstantial steady people do not look with the favor that they did, before the panicof 1873, on rallrond shares as & safe Investment. " An {tem of local news In the New York 7Tmes, ct, 1, coutains ovidence of this plentifal lack in Wall strect of outrlde buyers. A special meeting of the Governing Commlttee of the Stock Exchange was held Monday afternoon 1o conaider the advisabltily of increasing the com- nlssinn ratea for buying or selling on A margin to 1, of 1 per cent from 1-1C, tho present rato, Af- ter considerablo discursfon, it waa determined to take the senso of the Exchunge upon the pruposed jucrease befure acting declsively, and & mecting for that purposc baw been called. In view of the fuct that the geners! run of outaida speculative business—the kind affected- was never duller than uow, it I8 ehrewuly surmtsed that the wovement {s wn aftack on uld, Keenc, and the few other large apeculators who monopolize the market ro that the majurily of the brokers, who are not In thelr comploy and who are becoming poserty- stricken, muy have a chanco to scrape togother o decent Jivelihood; though hiow rateing of tbe rates of cummisalun is calcnlated to entice business to the atreet s not clear, anless It is intended to bave tho ides get nbroad that with large commissions the brokers wlil no longer be tempted to resurt to ¢'shaves." The New York Journal of Commerce Rnda another causs for the decline in legitimate busl- ness which is mourned ovor by membors of the biock Exchonge. It iv the making of ** pata™ and *+calls** whict i judulged in by sotae of the prom|. nent members of he Exchange, These stock privileges are bought not only by outsiders, who muy be tempted to risk thelr money in tho gamo, but they are porchased by apeculating orokers, and thue the makers of thew are encouraged to go on and draw the privileges as long as thoy can find persons willlng t pay them the price demanded for the doeuments, Tho wakers of these vrivileges agree to recelve or dellver & cortain nomber of shares of stock withlu a mpecifled timo for a certaln conelderation, ‘The Gambllug Jaw Is (hns evaded, the contracts are hold tu be good by the conrte, and 1tis sald that they are enforced by the Stock Exchange, This worst form of gambling has ulmost entirely superscaed the old margin systew of truding in atocks, the volume of legitimnte business (v consequontly decreased, and the warket is pow left ulmoat exclusivaly to the *tput and ** call# magulacturera and thelr fol- Jowers, The privileges are boucht Jargely by peonle who formerly traded 1o tho property Nself, aud wembers of the EXchange canoot expect any jucrease ln thelr business as brokers while they encourage a lottery gamo which s regalated only Ly thie amount of cash offered tho partica dolng the business, while tho Exchaugo acts as dealer In fur. nishing tho quotations by wire for carrylog op the trade, NEW TORK DANK CLEARINGS YOR TUN PAST YEAL. ‘The clearluge of the Nuw ¥ork banks for the year endiug Sept. 30 wero $20, 876,000,000, aud the balances 81,015, 000,000, ‘The Z¥ibune com- ments un these dgures, and ways: *‘Tho vpor- ations durlng tho past year bave been about b per ceut larger than those of the year preceding.

Compard with the transsctions of 1873, when the currency exclianges alone were uearly §34, 000, 000,000, the repurt of the past year indicates ouly a yreat brinkage in all kinda of Lusiness, logitimste or speculative, and ln values of sl sorts of property.

In 1575 tho census-returns of this State showed 1,344,058 acres of wheat, which produced 43,300,007 bushichs, or anaversgy of thirteen bushels per ncre. In 1873 the product was U2,437,830 bushicls of wheat, Increase from 1873 to 1875, 10,020,271 bushels. At tho same increase from 1575 1o 1877, tho product is 5i, 845,278 bushels. It I8 well known that in 1875 the northwestern counties ralsed no wheat ou account of 'hoppers, while thls yeur they have a ool average vrop. AL §s safc Lo nssums there Were_as many ace#s sown to wheat this year za in 1876, while tho average yleld in the State 13 timated at not less than fiftcen bushels per nere, which would give 47,004,310 bushe! Itis & matter of fact Lliere was 1moro acreage thia year than two gcarl ago, and an fnerease of inora than two bushels per acro, 0s every farmer wlll admit; 80 that the estimate of your corre. spondent is below rather than above the correct product.
