FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. SuNDay, August 15—1860, ‘Wall street dciring the past week did not present many features or offer any incidents of more than mere common interest, The most important of the latter, perhaps, and the most lasting in its infu. oe, W! tian of the week, the with Labilite- mattously estimated at from two to threo myaons of dollars. ‘The house was one which had onjoyed the confidence of thy strest for years, ‘ag its members the esteem and respect of their nuection, but had become embarrassed in <onsequence of large advances made to the mills in suelana for which they acted as agents, and Subsequent losses entailed in running the mills to Beoure their advances. ‘The effectof the failure on the street was to produce distrust in discounting circles and provoke the closest scrutiny of all paper ofered in the market. A hardening of the rate was another result, and now only first lass acceptances Bre cashed at all, and these at the extreme rates of eight to ten per @at, while the greatest caution ts exercised in respect to long date paper. While discounts were thus disturbed the money market. in other directions worked —§ with the utmost ease and comfort for borrowers on collat- bral, although not at remarkably low figures, rang- ing on extreme quotations from four to seven per cent, the lowest rate being exceptional, the market Tuling mostly at five and six on governments and six nd seven on mixed and stock collateral. Notwith- “standing this comparative case considerable anxiety ‘was felt throughout the week concerning the future of the money market, especially as it was known that the demand for currency to aid in the crop move- ments had already commenced, and initial shipments had been made to the Southwest. Nor has this anxiety een lessened by the publication of the bank state- ment last evening showing that the banks had re- duced their legal reserve during the woek tothe extent of over $3,000,000—$1,800,000 by loss of specie fand $1,300,000 by loss of legal tenders. Nor was the Cause of this exhibit in the matter of legal tenders clearly understood when the heavy disbursements of the government on account of bonds purchased ‘was considered, and at present the only explana- tion that can be afforded is the assumption of a Much heavier movement of currency to the Souths west during the week than has been reported, The toss of specie is easily accounted for by the large payments of customs duties, the {importers taking advaniage of the lower figure of the premium to move goods out of bond. Against this loss of legal reserve is a decrease in the bank Uabluties by @ reduction in the amount of the de- posits of $1,267,297, which ts more than counter- balanced, however, by increased expansion in the loans and discounts, amounting to $1,626,008, The banks hold of lawful money reserve in excess of the legal reserve $20,648,296, against $23,518,761 on Satur- day, August 7. The following exhibits the totals of the last two statements in contrast:— August 7, August 14, Loans. $264,879,357 $266, 506,865 Specie. 26,008,925 24,164,499 i} 83,992,257 198,952,711 54,730,089 The following shows the comparative standing of ‘the banks in the corresponding week of last year:— Aug. 15, 1868. Aug. 14, 1869, 217,808,620 $266, 505,365 22,953,350 24,154,499 34,114,087 83,992,257 228,561,037 198,952,711 5,481 64,730,080 Which is thus more clearly presented:— Aug. 15, 1868. Aug. 14, 1869, $223,561,087 reed $4,114,087 Deposits. . Circulation, 7,675,174 22,953,850 72,985,481 Legal tenders. Total reserve Twenty-tive pe Excess over Jegal res’ve. $31,470,538 It will thus be seen that, as compared with the com Fesponding period of last year, the banks show a weakness of resources in a less amount held in excess of legal reserve of $10,822,242, against a simi- lar weakness the previous week of $8,869,498, It is Mot to be wondered at that with this unsatisfactory Condition of the banks the prospects of the money market for the coming fall and winter should absorb much of the attention of the street. With every indi Cation of an abundant yield in both the grain and Cotton crops and great encouragement to expect an increased export demand for the former, the demand upon the banks 1s likely to be more than usually heavy for the special objects of moving these crops to the seaboard, while 1t must be confessed that the growth of the country during the past year and the evelopment of new and great enterprises in the West and South, calling for the use of currency tor mere local purposes, does not promise any very con- siderable returns from these directions, A lower price for the mew grain, anticipated as a con- of the wequence plentiful harvest, may Operate to equalize the demand upon the -banks with former years of smaller crops, while the reduced treights secured by the intense Tivairy of the great trunk lines of railroads leading ‘West, if continued, will contribute to the same re- @ult; but neither of these causos is likely to operate ‘to a suilicient extent to permit the same activity to exist on the Stock Exchange as at the corresponding period last year, when prices of 80 many of the leading stocks were so very much lower. Thus with a difference of ten and three-quarter Millions against the capability of expansion of the banks now and at this time last year, and every,progpect of an equal if not greater Outside drain upon their resources for the next three months, it is impossible that, with New York Central at 209, Hudson River 185, Harlem 162, Lake Shore 105, Pittsburg 105, Northwestern 83 and 97, Rock Island 116, St. Pau! 82 ana 89 and Fort Wayne 153, that the same amount of business can’ be done during that period as when these stocks were respectively—New York Central 127, Michigan Southern 84, Pittsburg 86, Northwestern 81, Rock Island 101, St, Paul 73 and 81 and Fort Wayne 107. With this advance in prices to continue the same amount of business as last fall a corresponding increase in the volume of currency on the street will be a necessity, while a similar appreciation in the government market presents equal evidence that from ten to twenty per cent more money Will be required to move the same amount of stocks and bonds at their present prices, exclusive of the exceptionally inflated ‘Vanderbilt shares, and preserve equal activity in the market, a3 was called for last fall, It will thus be Seen that the chances of an active money market for the closing months of the year are of suMcient ‘Weight to call for the exercise of careful judgment on the part of all who are called upon to enter into time engagements of any sort, and demanaing as sound business precaution conservative prac- tice among dealers generally, The relation which the Secretary of the ‘Treasury, tn the administration of the financial department of the goverament, holds to the money market has been always close and intimate, In the time of Mr. McCulloch this re- lation was regarded with suspicion and distrust. In Mr. Boutwells case it excites much doubt. The polisy which the latter has thus far pursued, no matter what its merits, shows him disposed to use his position for the cor- rection of evils in the monetary situation. That he has acted thus far in good faith ts not doubted; but the question arises—how far is he prepared togo in the future in this effort to preserve the balance of exchanges, and to what extent can he be calculated upon as an element of disturbance, whether for good or ill, inthe ordinary course of business? In other words, how much gold does he intend to sell, and what amount of bonds will he buy? If money is tight kere next month or the month after will he increase his bond purchases, or has he resolved to stop them, and if so; what relief is he prepared to give to the money market, or will he giveany? Ifhe had not commenced his gold sales and bond purchases for the declared purpose, in the first place, of de- feating the clique who were operatir to advance the premium, and, in the other case, relieving the existing stringoney in the money market, these questions would not arise; but, having shown that he was in favor of sucn tnterlerence, it becomes @ necessary consideration for all interested in the several markets m Wall street, how far he will go in that direction, is reticence on the subject does Not meet with mpproval. It has been demonstrated that thera parties who obtain a knowledae of nis Intentions in time to operate upon the informatic’s, and there is, therefore, a very general desire that hé should free himself from the discredit of being thus made a tool of, as well as furnish the opportunity for men of enterprise to act understandingly in making engagements for the future by announcing his policy for a reasonable periog ahead, and especially so at this time, when # is all tmportant should cae amnotae CoUtngenieney of THe ext fee mons Money closed on Saturday night at six and seven per cent, The gold market during the week has been suc- ceséfully hammered by the “bears,’’ who have sola the Market freely. The first downward turn was given on Monday, upon rumors of large purchases of produce on foreign aecount, From this it continued to decline, with slight intervais of reaction, produced by purchases for importers, who took advantage of the lower premium to pay custom dnties on goods in bond until yesterday, when it reached 133%—a decline of 24s per cent frem the opening price on last Monday morning. At the close last evening the Premium stood 134%. ‘fhe following table shows the range of gold each day during the week:— Governments were dull during the week and de- clined in sympathy with the gold premium, as weil as in consequence of the large offerings of five-twen- ties made the Treasury on Wednesday last—seven and a quarter millions.

The latter were de- pressed by the reduction in freight occasioned by the conflict between rival lines, and the former firm on the reported satisfactory progress of negotiations for the consolidation of New York Ceutral and Hud- son River. In State bonds new Tennessees and North Caro- linas were the features of the week, the former fall- ing off to 51, in consequence of the discussion of repudiation of the national indebtedness by politi- cians in that State, and the tatter being weak in sympathy. Both rallied toward the close and were firmer yesterday.

The Baltimore and Ohie Railroad Company Retuses to Join the Pennsylvania Com- binations, WASHINGTON, August 13, 1869, President Garrett, of the: Baltimore and Ohio Rail- road, in his report of yesterday, lets a littie light into the operations of certain high tarisf coal mono- polists. After stating that his road had brought to market, during the ten months ending the 3ist ult., 1,088,804 tons of coal—nearly double the amount of the preceding ten months—mMr. Garrett says:— Coal carrying interests in Pennsylvania have urgently pressed this company to advance materially tts taryfrates, It has been urged that at an advance af one dollar per ton, which would now make a ai- Terence tn the net receipts of the company af $150,000 per month, the great denand for coal would stil cause the full capacity of the company to ve used. The company, however, look- t omprenaamrely at all the great interests in- olved, has continued the low rate which was estab- lished in the spring of 1863, viz., $250 per ton of 2,000 pounds from Cumberland to Locust Point ship- ping wharves, and proportionate rates from other Points, While this rate is but little over one anda quarter cent per ton per mile—a rate deemed by railway companies generally to be unremunerative— yet it 18 believed that it will be the policy of the com- pany to continue it during the present ana approach- Ing season. Enis policy. is directly the reverse of that pursued by the coat carrying interests of the anthracite re- gions. The Reading road, for ninety miles, has ad- vanced its rate to $250 per ton, thus doubling the rate per ton per mile charged by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company. Notwithstanding the atly shorter distances of the anthracite ‘ons m Baltimore, as compared with the bituminous coal regions, yet the rates of the Northern Central Railroad and other companies have been such as to. cause, in combination with the cost of that coal, the prices charged to consumers in Baltimore to be from nine to nine dollars and a half por ton. ‘The vast advances to the manufacturing and com- mercial interests of Baltimore which are secured by the low tariffs on coal maintatned by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company can be appreciated by contrasting the market rates for Cumberland coal, viz., four doliars and sixty cents to five dollars per ton of 2,240 pounds, delivered at manufactories ac- cessible by water in the harbor for steamship pur- 1» &Ce ‘The traffic in coal on the road in June and July, including 27,752 tons for the use of the company, was 315,597 tons, and, large as the demand is, the com- pany 1s promptly meeting all the present require- ments both for local purposes and for shipment. The deliveries in Baltimore frequently exceed 5,590 tons per day. Statements have recently been pub- lished which estimate the combined capacity of the Northern Central Railroad Company and the Tide- water Canal Company at but 1,400 tons of coal per day, and this limited delivery is given as one of the leading causes for the large charge for anthracite to the consumer in Baltimore. It will be noted that the capacity of the Baltimore and Ohio Company for coal transportation at pre- sent 1s four times as great as the combined water and rail capacity from the anthracite regions to Bal- timore, as thus represented. The large deliveries by the Baitimore and Ohio Company are being made, too, from much crore distances—namely, from 178 to 300 miles, It is trusted that the policy which the Baltimore and Ohio Company has so steadily pur- sued, and which it has determined to maintain through the fall, and even during the expensive riod of the winter, of charging only its low rate r transportation, will continue as heretofore, not only to benefit directly the interests cf our commu- nity, but that it will also aid in reducing the high prices charged for other descriptions of coal. The operations of the high tariff coal monopolists here in the lobby of Congress to increase the price of their commodity has been exposed time and again in the HRRALD, but very few were prepared to be- lieve that their conspiracies were carried to the extent indicated by Mr. Garrett’s revelations. The Industrial League and other high tariff associations are now makug arrangements to have a full out- side delegation in tue looby to supervise the action of Congress during the approaching sesston. It re- mains to be seen whether the peopie are to have any consideration or not. OFFICIAL TRANSFERS OF REAL ESTATE ON SATURDAY. TRANGERKS IN NEW YORK ctTy. Irving place, No 64, 27x107.3...
