Gold at Par—Light Transactions in Governments, The Local Money Market-—Spasmodic " Stock Fluctuntlons, The Produce Marketa Fairly Active—Hogs Btoady—Provisions Btronger, Grain Generally Firm, with Smaller Receipts. FINANCIAL. Gold was at par all day. The apecnlators who atlempted to manipnlate Fold are satd by the New York Forid to be unabla to do anything more, Last week, for thele plan to Thave any show of success, it was Indispenaable to compel & rednction In the specle average. But they were unable to effect it. The only ratlonal €xplanation ls thatthey bave cxhausted theirre- suurcen, The same paper, In iis financtal column, advocates that the payment of the Jannary gold Intercst should be aniicipated without rebate, for the sake of largely Increasing the snpply of gold coln {n the banks and in private hands, and leaving the Bob-Treasury on Jan, 2 mors at liberty to an- =wer any domand for conversion of greenbacks Into gold that may Do presented nn that day. Without connting the few remaining 1805s, all of which may be undor notice of payment before De- cember ends, the January Intcrest amounts to ahout 320,000,000, of which 88,134,000 (s un con- pon and §11, 114,000 on registered bonds, The explanation of the refusal of the Tresenry to pay in gold Lhe inierest duc on registered bonds in Chicapo after Jan. 1 s not satiefactory tu the Chicngo biankern and other large holders of regin- tered bonds, These remistered bonds sre made payabla in Chicaro, and it is clsimed that paymont 1 & coln cheek on New York which has (o 6o soid at 1 discount Is not payment at 100 cevts on the dullar in Chicago, Neither tho legal-tenders nor the coin checks which Secrelary Shesman's circular eays will be piven to bondliolders will be worth par fu Chicago, They will, after Jan, 1. be worth par in New York, but not here. The banks had been confidently counting on payment In coln dan. 1, as beretofore. Beeretary Sherman's clrcalarhascom- pslled them to order gold from New York, at on ex- wenee of §2 per 81,000, an expense which they do not think the holders of bonds reaistered payable at Chicazo sbould have been compeiled to ncur, Sceretaty Sherman's new loatructions have the singular effect of making the supply of gold amall- er after resumption than It was before in Chicugo, 1t 14 the redemption of gold 1n logal-tendere, and not that of leyal-tenders in gald, that now agitates New York financlal circles, No one scems to doabt that the tiovernment will aucceed in re- <ceeming all the Jegal-tenders prescnted; but, an the pold 1s bulky and inconvenient to handle, the uueatton la rajsed, Wil the Government take gold and give lezai-fenders? Tho legnl-tenders will bo prefersnle, anlong as they oro convertible into coln. This uintarrassing question will not come up in Chicago, IHero we shall not be able after Jan. 1. auny more than now, to get gold of the Governmem for our vrcenbacks, Hesumption will be resumption at New York only, for the first, at least, i ‘Transactions in Governments were only moder- ate, but the narket wae ateady, Tho f-20x of 1877 wvers 0l 4, to 10533, and the currency Us X, to 1194, Otherwlso there was no changs In prices, Cnicago graty sud provislon billa wers in moder- ately cood kupply.
