2 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Frivax, July 6—6 P. M. Tho money market exhibits most of the symptoms whion usually indicate continued and increasing @a3®, Tho superabundant supply of loanable capital, and the very small demand thereforin the ordinary channels of Dusinoas, are among the most obvious of these indica- tions, whilo the vast amount of national bank motes with which tho vaults of nearly all our large banking institu- tions are gorged, covtributes, with other analogous causes, to put the currency of the count#y into that state which is most preventive of stringency and most con- ducive to monetary ease, Capital being plentiful, there- fore, while currency is over-abundant, and the public confidence steady and well sustained, we have the threo principal conditions for ease in money; and the general~ impression in Wall street. appears to be that this ease will not only be undisturbed for some time to come, but that it may probably be maintained until the present tranquillity of business is superseded by the activity inci- dent to the opening of the coming fall trade, Whether these gpinions are correct or no, it is cortain that they extensively prevail and that they influence to a very note- worthy degree the current movements in Wall street. An attempt was made yesterday to propagate tho notion that thore was an incroasing activity in the loan market. Indeed, about two o'clock in the afternoon, there were a considerable number of applications for money at tho leading brokers’ offices. These inquiries are reported to have been a contrivance on the part ef some of the bear 6peculators, as the very moderate activity of the stock market does not seem to justify any sudden and exten- sive demand for loans and monetary accommodation on the part of the stock brokers, The current rates for call loans are unchanged, and range from 4 to 5 per cent on approved securities, ‘The discount demand is small and good bills pass readily at 53 a7 per cent, The chief point of interest in the stock market tsa continuation of th® activity which was developed yes- terday in tho various descriptions of governinent securi- ties, At tho first regular board sixes of 1881 advanced 1 por cent, and, although 10834 was bid, no bonds were offered. Five-twenties of 1862 were in demand at 1051¢ 8 10534, (he principal purchases being on account of foreign firms, who are buying more freely to-day than they were disposed to do yesterday, Five-twenties of 1864 aro scarce, and we observed no transactions in thom; but the bonds of 1565 were offered at 104%, and $200,000 were accepted at this rato, The ten-forties wore also strong and rose to 97%{. Seven-thirties were steady without much activity. State stocks showed, also, considerable activity, North Carolina sixos being Inquired for at $434 a §43{ and the new bonds at 63, New York Bounty Loan was also active at 1033; a 10344. Rallroad shares were active. Seven thousand shares of Erie were sold, the opening price being 69 and the lowest price 677s. New York Central advanced %4, Micpigan Central 3%, Mich'gan Southern 4,*Zilinois Central 34, Pittsburg 3%, Toledo 134, Rock Island 3¢, Northwestern 46, Northwestern preferred %, Fort Wayne 3%. In the miscellaneous shares little was done. Quicksilver ad- vanted }{, Western Union Telegraph 1. Spruce Hill cold at 434, Mariposa preferred at 233; and Atlantic Mall at 124, At the one o'clock call very little business was done, and there was no change of importance in quotations. The only feature worthy of note was an active demand for Toledo and Northwestern, At tho second regular Doard there was considerable excitement in old five- twenties, which rose to 10534 a 105%. Ten-forties also went up to 98, Seven-thirties also shared the gen>ral improvement and advanced to 10854 a 103%{. The rail- road share list was well supported; Rock Is!and ad- yancod }4, Northwestern 3. ‘Tho chief point of interest at the second open board at half-past three gentred in Erie, 7,000 shares of which wore bought in under the rule, in consequence oi a firm who had made the time contracts to deliver the stock having fatled to make the deposit of five per cent, which was called up by the purchaser, Afterwards there was afair amount of business doing in the street, and the quotations at balf-past five P. M. were as follows:—New York Contral 9914, Erle 674%, Reading 107, Michigan Southern £0, Cleveland and Pittsburg 835, Cleveland and Toledo 10834, Rock Island 9034, Northwestern 33}4— preferred 6134, Fort Wayne 9714. Petroloum and mining shares are neglected. Atthe first board, Consolidated Gregory Gold closed 10. higher than at the same time yesterday. Benehoff Run Oil sold at $350; Manhattan, 20c.; Germania, 10c. ; Downieville Gold, 58°,; Gunnell Gold, $1 14; Now York Gold, 0c. At the second board, Benehoif Run Ol! closed 10c. higher than at the first board, selling at $3 60; Consoli- dated Gregory Gold was 35c. lower, selling at $20 25; New York and Alleghany sold at $4 40; United States, $8 10; American Fiag, $2 60; Downieville Gold, S5c.; Gunnell Gold, $1 10, Gold 1s moro plentiful for delivery. The lending rate this morning was “flat,’’ but in consequence partly of the large supply seoking borrowers, and partly of the small domand, the rate this afternoon was from three to five por cent in favor of the borrower. The quotations have fluctuated Jess than usual to-day, a® wil bo seen from Foreign exchange $6 rathor more firm, but there is little demand. The quotations are as follows :— Bankers’ bills, sixty day 108 n 108% Bakers’ bills, three days N10 a 11085 Commeretat bills. 107 a 107% Francs, long date. 5.10 a 6.1215 Franos, short. date. re 22 6.75 0 6.10 Tho Stock Exchange Board have made a donation to- day of $3,000 for tho relief of the sufferers by the con- flagration at Portland.

The chief officer, he said, reported to me that two menatthe wheel were drank and the ship several poluts off hor course; I told him to have them relieved; I went on deck ‘to the wheelhouse; Frank Allen, the prisoner, was one of the men at the wheel; he was straggling with the chief officer on tho deck ta the wheelhouse; the chief officer said the pri- soner had strack him ; Allen was precent at the time; he ‘was thon got out of the wheeihouse; I sent for a pair of iron4, but as the man promised to go forward and be- havo himself I did not iron him; I put another man at the wheel; about three-quarters of an hour afterwards Wiliam Waring, the third officer, informed me that the prioner, bad used | 6 knife; { went on deck and found the ehie€ engimeer had the men in charge; be had his arms pinioned behind him; the prisoner was swearing that ho woold have the first officer's life; he swore he would cut the first officer's bloody heart out; I saw no koife in the 's hand; T saw the knifo shortly afterwards in the ehief officer's hand; we then placed the prisoner in irons and put him below, this was several days before we arnved; the prisoner was con- fined in the fore-stecrage; some time afterwards be smashed the door and got out; the chief engineer and m went below to secure him egain, when he strack me twice with his irons, one of which was loose; he was vory abusive; we secured him.

Civil vistas a THE COMMON COUNCILMEN. The Gas Contract Orderced—An Alleged Monstrous Swindle—Interesting De- bate. The Board of Councilmen was in session yesterday afternoon, President Green in the chair. After disposing of a number of unimportant papers, Mr. Kesxan called up the followimg resolution and moved its adoption, notwithstanding the objections of his Honor the Mayor:— Resolved, That the Street Commissioner be and he is here. by authorited and direoted to make coutract for, lighting wil reels, avenues, To ares, parks publ Piaget. of the cny of Now York, wit! coal gam suse contract to be founded on sealed bids or proposals, and to be ma e company giving adequate security, to be ap- proved Comptroller in the manner provided by law, wile ree to do the same for the lowest pr each lamp or light per annum, or quarterly when it can be measured according to the existing regulations, and afford- ing to such company suilicient Une to lay thelr inatus and in- troduce gas as required by the contract, The provision of the contract last made and exeeuted with the Manhattan Gas Jompany, a8 6 PPactical em! contract made ‘pursuance of this resolation, and the term during which the same is to continue shall be for the same number of years as that contract. Any rogolution or ordl- nance inconsistent with this resolution is hereby repealed. Mr. Puntmay said he ontirely concurred with his Honor the Mayor in the opinions which he set forth in he» voto message, and if he (the speaker) thought he would accomplish anything he could urge other objections to the passage of the ordinance at this time, Looking at the matter from a business point of view, it was a very ruinous job, There wag not a singlo member of the Board who would make a private contract for ono fourth the number of years which the propos:d contract named, He believed that five years from this porlod everything would be much cheaper than the present prices, and if the gas contract was mado now the city would lose five millions of dollara, If other gontlemen looked at it as he did they would consider it a great swindlo, Mr, Stacom believed that if the resolution had boen adopted when gold was at. 130, the city would have saved money, ‘now gold was over 160, and as war was raging in’ Europe it wes likely that gold would re- main at that Ogure for a long time, Mr. Ropsnre ventilated the great swindle (as the people called it) at considerable length. He thought it strauge when any important measure like the one under con- sideration was up that thera was a full attendance of members, which showed that they wore in the interest of men other than their constituents. Whon the resolu. tion was first presented, its friends were ashamed to put the number of years into the contract, which was found ‘on examination to be twenty years. He (Mr. R.) was proud that the city had a man in tho Mayoralty who, when he found hasty fegislation, called upon the Board to reconsider their voto. This matter affected not ony Fifth avenue, but thousands of poor men, who were anxious to get gus'as cheap as it could be had. If the resolution passed, all the gas companies would com- bine; each of them would say, “I will not bid under you, and we will divide the spoils.” Thus was capital attempting to crush the poor man. He had conversed with a thousand citizens upon the gas contract and had not met one who was in favor of making the contract for twenty years; and he would inform the Board that the people genorally called it a swindle.
