THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1878, INANCE AND TRADE. Gold and ' Resumption—-Weakness in Government Bonds. The Local Monecy Markete--Stock Fluctuntions. The Prodnce Markets Steady---Pro- visions Easier, with Lers Doing. Wheat Aotive and Stronger—Other Grain Quist, with Little Change in Prices, - ! FINANCIAL, Gold was sold at parin New Yorx, Tn Chieago, New York eold exchangs was 100, and gold coln 100Y. The ditsatisfaction of the bankers with the dé- termination of the Secretary of the Tressury to pay debt-intercst st Chicago after Jan. 1 (o green. Lacks or coln chocks.does not abate, The bankers had their bonda registered with interest payable at Chicago for the purpose of being able to get tho goll bers, They object to payment in legal- tenders or tn checks that can be converted Into wold only by transnortation to New York. The amuont involved fs 30 amall that It scems hardly worth Secretary Sherman's while to reverse the practice of tha Department, The amount of coln paid on quarteriv-interest checks last year by all the Treasury oflces was $18. 500,000, of which $17,500,000 wan pald at New York, Boston, Pal- timore, and Philadelphis, leavine only $1,000,000 10 be disbursed at tne Western and Southern Sub. Trensurien, ‘The bankers of Cincinnati ara as much disturbed thoee of Chicago by the instructions of Secreta- 1y Sherman to the Sub-Treasornes, outside of New York, to pay in greenbacke or New York gold checks arter Jan, 1 the debt-interest that has hitherto been payablo in the coin itself. The Caxtier of the First National Bank of Cioetnnatl hasrritten 1o Secretary Sherman us followas It this plan is carrled out § beg to say that It will creatua good deal of unpisasant feeling in this cumuunity among people who will at first desire zold, Ttrustthat you will glve inmtructions tnat will enable 1ts to collect conpans and. interesy checks s nsual, Ingold, It ie not expected that the ¢emand will continte for any. length of tme but 1 beg to suggest that in our judgment it snould Le frenig mel $n tho untsot, Secretary Bherman's discontinnazce of the praoc. tico.pf keeplng separato accounts of coln and greenbncks fe interpreted aa s device for keeping the pablic ignarant how resumption proceeds, Tha coin balance might be reduced $100,000,000, and the cnrrency Lalance corrcspondingly lucressed, without Its being knnwa, ‘Two Inieresting minor incidents on the day gold rolil a3 par were that on that day the leat page was reached of tne record-book in which the gold rales at the Stock Exchange were entered, and that on he matme day the Government recelpts from fnte naltages In currency aad custums daties in coin were exactly cqual. ‘Tha Cincinnatt Enquirer gives an edttorial place o the etatement that one of the editors of a prominent New York daily paper, and a grest Lullioniet, declared at a dinner party Thursday night ast that the Government wonla be gompeli- el to suspend specie-payments befors the 10th of January; that & combination had been made by the banks to tako all the zold Mr. Sherman had tn the Treasury, ‘The story is abaurd. not becausa the £0ld could not be drawn ont, 1 the combination-had the greenbacks, but hecause the greonbacks for #uch a run cannot be had In New York. All the Cleating-1louse bankys of New York hold a total of only $10,478,600 In greenbacks, Thelo green- backs are wmore desirable to them thun the gold wonld be. One of onr Chicago banks trled the anenmnx of paving out m emall sum of gold. Various par. tles to whom {1 was offered refused It on the prunnd of Ite inconvenicuce. Fimally, a young man who had never seen zold in cireulation took it fur the noveity of the thing. The strength of the Government-bond market antl the firmness of prices, except where afTected by refunding operations, are the best test of tha con. fdence with which resumption is swafted. The Hecretary of tho '‘reasury has full power to sell mn unlimited emount of & per cent bonds at par to execute the Resumption act. Tho Gver cents are now selling at 100%@100%. ‘They aro atendy at that price, and havo shared the nnwaed movement with the reat of the list. If there yeere the oreath of s saspleion that the resump- tion of specie-puyments wers to be smperllcd by nny combinstion or run, and that the Secretary mizht have fo resort to his power lo sell 4, 43¢, or even b per cent bonds #t par, prices wonld Inlalli- ly huve Iddicated 1t A veteran Chicago finencler declares the only thluz 10 mar his perfect faith that resumption witl be anccewaful {a thas everybody Is saying It will @ "uicly succeed. His experience haa been that it is unually safo to bet arminst the crowd. ‘Uhe call for the last outatsnding 5208 of 1885 had & weakenlng influence ou tho *67a and '68s, which utond pext in the lat to be called.
