8 —_—___——_——— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. SarurDAY, May 1-6 P. M, The Secretary of the Treasury is faithful to his promise to meke prompt monthly statements of the pubiic debt. The statement for the month of April shows a decrease of $6,300,000, which 1s @ very favor- able exhibit. The total interest-bearing debt is $2,174,240,000 and the amount of coin in the Trea- gury $92,000,000, ‘The weekly bank statement shows the steady re- ceipt of funds by the banks and is quite favorable. The deposits are unusually large, owing to the pay- ment of the government interest, although the actual specie increase is leas than half a million. ‘The excess above the legal reserve gains over a mil- lion and a half, The following are the totals as com- pared with the previous week:— April 24.

There was no quotation to-day, as the Ist of May fsa holiday in England, and so the market was without this guid- ance, but became firm toward the close, on account of the rise in gold. The 62’s were calied ex- coupon, being interest day. The following were the closing prices:—United States sixes, 1881, registered, 118% a do., coupon, 1184 a 118%; do., five-twenties, stered, 11334 @ 11844; do. do., coupon, 1862, 1184 a do, do., coupon, 1864, 113% a 113%; do. do., coupon, 1865, 115% a 11544; do. do., coupon, new, 5, 116%% a 11634; do. do., coupon, 1867, 116% a id; do. do., coupon, 1868, 11634 a 116%; do., ten- forties, registered, 10714 a 10744; do. do., coupon, Ws), a 108%; currency bonds, 106%; a 106%. ‘The heavy disbursement of gold by the Sub-Trea- sury, in payment of the May coupons, was powerless to stay theadvance in gold, which to-day touched 135, The decline in bonds at London and the un- easiness as to the future of the Alabama question were aldsto the stimulus derived from the firmer tone of the foreign exchange.

Paymemt of the coupons on the L..wislana levee six per cents commenced to-day at the Bk of America. + Money was quoted six to seven per cent in the earlier part of the day, but there was a sharp de- mand at seven per cent after two o’ciock and up to half-past three, supposed to be partly artificial and partly due to the withdrawal of funds to pay the in- terest on the city stocks. Commercial paper was in fair demand at seven and a half to ten per cent for “choice four months’ double name acceptances. The following were the bids for the city hank stocks at the regular board this morning:—™. 130; Manhattan, 140; Mechanics’, 448; Phenix, 107; North River, 105; Butchers and Drovers’, 135; National, 110!3; Merche;nts’ Exchange, N16; Seventh Ward, 110; State of New York, 112; Commerce, 126; American Exchange, 11134; Chatham, 160; Bank of the Republic, 118; Hanover, 110; Nas- sau, 105; Commonwealth, 114; Importers and Trad- ers’, 193; Park, 15934; Central National, 1103;; Fourth National, 104. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has been formally notided that an appeal from his decision sustaining Assessor Webster's consiruction of the law in regard to the tax on brokers’ capital will be made to the courts at once. Both boards of brokers held interesting executive sessions to-day. The regular board assembied at noou and after a brief discussion decided to adopt the report of the special committee favoring the ad- mission of the government brokers, As s00n as this determination became known the open board went into executive session and had a very stormy meeting. The report of the regular committee was denounced as untrue so far as it asserted that the open board manifested hostility to the project of consolidation. A committee was then appointed to take legal advice upon the subject of moving by injunction to restram the regular board from aduutting the government brokers at $1,000 per head, which step would be a contravention of the joint agreement to fix the initiation fee of both boards at $10,000. After some further discussion it was deemed proper to express the sentiment of the board as still in favor of a union with the Stock Exchange, and a conciliation committee was appointed in accordance therewith. The result will doubtiess be a consolidation, in accordance with the original programme. The regu- lar board are more solicitous for it than the open board, and tne action of the former to-day is shrewd- ly suspected to be a means of urging matters. The stock market was duii and generally heavy on account of the very inclement weather and the dis- traction of the brok to the questions in disput between the different boards, ‘The full text of t Albany news, showing that the committee reports with reference to the Vanderbilt stocks were sub- mitted ‘for the consideration of the Senate,” and not “favorable,” caused a halt among operators in New York Central, Hudson River and Harlem, which at their best were a fraction “off” from the highest figures of the previous da; Erie underwent & further “break” to 25%, but reacted to 27. Reading was lower in consequence of the heavy dividend on the East Pennsylvania road, and through reports of strikes in the coal regions. Pacific Mail and Pittsburg were side by side in a @ecline to 92, but recovered late in the day. Lake Shore was firm, touching 104. Mariposa was higher. A bill was reported in the Senate to- day to authorize the company to issue first preferred Stock. The following were the closing quotations at the last regular board:—Wells-Pargo Express, 35% @ 86%; American Express, 403; a 42; Adams Express, 61; a 62),; United States Express, 624 bid; Merchants’ Union Express, 1514; Quicksilver, 203 @ 21; Canton, 00 a 64; Pacific Mail, 92% a @2\; Weatern Union Telegraph, 43); @ 45); New York Central, 177 a 177%; Hudson River, 157 a 1574; Mar- lem, 149 4 151; Reading, 96% a 96 Ihicago and Alton, 159}, a 160; Bankers and Brokers’, 109; Alton and Terre Haute, 38% © 40; do. preferred, 68 a 6944; Toledo and Wabash, 73 @ 7344; do. preferred, 7734 a 78%; Milwaukee and St. Paul, 7#Y a 79; do, preferred, 87% @ 87%; Fort Wayne, 139), (# 50); Ohio and Mississippi, 35% @ 33'4; Micingan Cen- tral, 126 a 120; Michigan Southern, 103% a 1054; Tilinois Central, 144% a 146; Cleveland and Pitte- burg, 9244 @ 02%; Lake Shore, 1034 a 103%; Rock Island, 187! a 137%; Northwestern, 87% a 87%; do. preferred, 98% @ 9844; Boston Water Power, lta 1634; Mariposa preferred, 43% a 4374; Columbus, Chicago and Indiana Central, 48'4 @ 48%.

There must be studies, which new boards of park commussion- ers like our Own may profit by and while our commissioners are reading up, the wiil feel that 1t is better to move slowly than to move wrong. A member of one of the boards intimates that nothing will be done at present. He regards prices of outside property in the neighborhood of the ks as considerably inflated. If the Board should condemn the property for the parks at pres- ent, Prd must pay these high prices, and thus the city and the taxpayers suffer unnecessary loss. This is his argument. are inflated, a litte delay will tend to bring them down to their legiti- mate value.
