The Syndicate make oilicial announcement that they have completed their arrangements for the bringing out of the new five per cent United States loan simultaneously in this country and throughout Europe, and will open the books on “Tuesday, February 4. The combination of bankers vin the Syndicate is the largest and wealthiest ever formed for the furtuerance of any single financial eenterprise, and embraces in Europe the principal -houses which negotiated so successiully the last Joan of the French government. The BOOKS WILL REMAIN OPEN for about four days only, in order that the subscrip- tions may be closed by the end of next week. Meantime domestic investors will be allowed un- conditional privileges in making their subscrip- tions, and may exchange five-twenties for the new bonds ad libitum. Aiter the formal epening of the books the awards will be made only in tue /preportion the amount of bonds to be disposed of ‘bears to the total subscription: THE FINANCES IN COD A Washington despatch states that the Finance Committee of the Senate and banking and Currency Committee of the House have helda joint conference at which they considered Senator Sherman’s bill for @ resumption ef specie payments and authorizing free bauking, the latter alter July1, 1 The ‘conierence resulted in harmonious views of the entire proposition except as to the date for begin- ging resumption, which chimerical object was in Dne case believed to be attainable on and after January 1, 1874, and in the other on the lst of May, 1874, For the week. 602 & THE FOREIGN MARKET, The Lendon quotations came lower for consols On the alleged suddenly-serious aspect of the con- troversy between England and Russia as to the Khivan question, but the decline was not impor- fant. Onthe other hand, United States securities ‘were strong, if not buoyant, while the new French Joan advanced (in London) to 5 per cent premium. Erie shares were higher, closing at 52, equivalent to 65% in-our currency. The Paris Bourse was re- /ported buoyant, witha further rise in rentes to 54.87, MONEY ACTIVE. “The money market was more active, and while vthe government houses continued to get accom- modation freely at 6 a 7 per cent borrowers on stock collaterals were supplied but scantily at the minimum of 7 per cent, the general rate among them being 7 per cent coin, with, in the interval -preceding the close of banking hours, a brief spasm, in which 1-32 was paid in addition to 7 per cent. Before the close of dealings on the sidewalk the supply became better, and the closing transactions were at 7 per cent and 7 coin, alternately. Commercial paper was un- changed and steady, Foreign exchange was nomi- Dally unchanged, but the tone of the market was - alternately weak and steady. THE RAILROAD BONDS. The railroad bonds were better for the Union Pa- cifics and stvong for the Central firsts, the latter rising to 102.

Government bonds were firm for most of the list, the exceptions being the new fives, which were barely steady, if not heavy, and ‘the ten-forties, which were offered at a slight concession. The long sixes of 1881 left off at 119% a 119%. The fol- lowing were the closing quotations :—United States currency sixes, 11544 a 11534; do., 1881, registered, 117 @ 11744; do., do. coupon, 119% a 1194; do. five-twenties, registered, May and November, 115% 11534; do. do., 1862, coupon, do., 1154 a 115343 do, do., 1864, do. do., 11534 @ 11534; do., do. 1865, do. do., 116% a 116%; do. do., 1867's, registered, Jamuary and July, 11534 a 115%; do. do., 1865, cou- pon, do., 115 a 115%; do. do., 1867, do, do., 116% 116%; do. do., 1863, do, do., 116% a 116%; do. ten- forties, registered, 114 a 11434; do, do., coupon, 11534 11534; do. fives of 1881, registered, 113% a 118%; do. do. do., coupon, 1145¢ a 115. SOUTHERN SECURITIES STEADY. The Southern State bonds were steady and with- out new feature, except in the case of the Tennes- sees, which were strong at a further improvement of 4a percent, The following were the closing prices:—Tennessee, ex coupon, 81% a do., new, 8144 a $2; Virginia, ex coupon, 47 a 50; do., registered stock, old, 37 a 42; do. sixes, consolidated bonds, 56 @ 5614; do. sixes, deferred scrip, 14 a 15; Georgia sixes, 75 a 80; do. sevens, 90 a 92; North Carolina, ex coupon, 33 a 333g; do., te North Carolina Railroad, 57 a 60; do,, funding, 1866, 25 27; do, do., 1868, 23 a 26; do, new, 17 a 20; do., special tax, 12 a 14; Missouri sixes, 93 a 938i; do., Hannibal and St. Joseph, 90 a 90!¢; Louisiana sixes, 50 a 55; do., new, 45 a 50; do., levee sixes, 50 @ 60; do. do. eights, 50a 70; do, do, do., 1875, 60 a 70; Alabama fives, 57 a 61; do, eights, 84 a 87; South Carolina sixes, 40 a 50; do., new, January and July, 22}¢ @ 23; do, do., April and October, 25) a 26; Arkansas sixes, junded, 35 a 42, GOLD FIRM—113% A 114, The gold market was inclined to weakness early in the day, under the opening heaviness of the for- eign exchanges and the firmness of our bonds in London, but recovered steadiness and closed firm, upon the reported less peaceful atti- tude of the governments of Great Britain and Russia, It will be observed that the market has entirely disregarded the course of legislation at Washington on the subject of specie payments. In fact, the price of gold has advanced about two per cent since Congress revived the question of re- sumption. One of these days Senator Sherman will learn that resumption must come through the operation of natural laws, and not through special legislation. During the session this afternoon a special meeting was held, at which a very ELOQUENT FAREWELL ADDRESS was made by Rev. Mr. T. A. Hoyt, ex- Chairman of the Board, who goes to Nashville to assume the pastorate of the First Presbyterian church of that city. Before his retirement from the room Mr. Hoyt was agreeably surprised by the presentation to him of a purse of $1,500. The course of the mar- ket is shown in the table:— 10 A. M. ll 2P. M. 10:03 113% a ld In the gold loan market the rates ranged from 2 to7 percent for carrying. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as follows :— Gold cleared . Gold balances 5 Currency balances. 2,61: 968 The Sab-Treasury paid out $234, 000 on account of interest and $5,500 on account of redeemed five- twenties, spacey 1,604,91 STOCKS HEAVY AND LOWER. The stock market was quiet and dull during the forenoon and the session of the first board outside of one or two features, but later in the day suc- cumbed to the effects of the more active demand for money and underwent a general decline. The Weakness Was most conspicuous in New Y ork Cen- ; tral and Erie, the latter falling to 6534, at which it closed on the level of the London market, the first ‘occasion the two quotations have equalized in quite a while. The stronger stocks were C., C. and 1. C. and Rock Island, but both were unsettled, The iormer advanced to 413; under a pressure to COVER SHORT SALES, but receded to 40%, in the general weakness after three o'clock. Northwestern preferred was more active at91a92, St. Paul common was lower and the preierred firm, Ohios were in better demand and had improved to 49%{ before overtaken by the depressing influences which affected the market late in the day. Union Pacific was steadier if not firmer, as if the unfavorable legislation in Con- ay had exerted its full effect. Atlantic and Pacific preterred advanced to 39, but fell off at the close tO 3734.

WEDNESESDAY, Jan. 20-6 P. M. The markets remained in statu quo. The dead- lock in the transportation business creates a cor- responding state of aifairs in business circles, and dull and heavy markets are the immediate and natural consequence. In fact, the difficulty of moving produce and the scarcity of freight room may be set down among the ciief causes of the existing inertia in business quarters, and until | these causes can be at least partly overc were seemingiy idle to expect an prosecution of trade, The late great snow storms were more widespread and more interests of the country than any we have had lor | 4 along time, and to this more than to anything else isdue the present extreme quictude throughout | the business marts of the city and country. The movement in dry goods, cotton, breadstuis, &c., continues sluggish, and there would seem to be little prospect of an immediate betterment, Stil, the markets remain comparatively steady, though they have to a great extent lost that firmness and buoyancy by which they were characterized a few weeks ago. On ‘Change to-day four was firm, with | @ moderate inquiry. Wheat was dull and nominal, | though the few lots sold brought extreme figures. | Corn was quict, but firm, In other commodities business was very much circumseribed. Provisions were quiet and for inost descriptions nominal, Groceries con- tinued dull, but the markets were nominaily steady. Petroleum was quiet and easier, and the market closed weak. Spirits turpentine wi ain firmer, and rosin re- inained steady. Whiskey was steady, but the market closed dull, with a declining tendency. Correx.—The market continued quiet, but firm, for all deseriptions, No sales were reported trom first hands, and the joobing trade was only moderate.

Some little excitement was manifested yesterday “ t by operators in real estate by the offering of the extensive houses and lots belonging to the Post estate, sold by Muller, Wilkins & Co., which rea- lized $835,15%, the particulars whereof will be found below, as well as other sales effected by James M, Milter and Hugh N, Camp. Otherwise there is very little doing in the way of private sales, The Commissioners appointed to assess damages: and make awards for property taken for the build- ing of the Northern Boulevard, running from 155th street to Inwood street, a distance of 15,216 feet, consisting of Messrs. William ©. Traphagan, John McClave and William A. Seaver, have about concluded _ their estimates, and are now awaiting the completion of the maps on the surveys made by General Charles K. Graham, who is laboring very assiduously to finish the same. This Commission has accomplished more and in a shorter period than any body of the kind ever before established in connection with the opening of any streets in this city. His Honor Judge John R. Brady deserves a great deal of credit for his foresight in appointing a Commission so competent as the above has proved itself, exact amounts awarded by the Commissioners cannot as yet be made public, but it is understood that, while the interest of the city has been strictly guarded, the property owners receive all that ia lairly due them.

Dz C., Jan. 29, 1873, No. 108, Duncan, Sherman & Co. vs. Jaudon; and No, 109, National City Bank vs. Same.—Appeais from the Circuit Court for the Southern district of New York. These were actions brought against Duncan, Sherman & Co. and the National City Bank by Mrs. Jaudon, to recover certain sums of money paid to them by her trustee, in settiement of accounts for advances made by them to the trustee on collaterals of hers held in trust, m violation of her rights under the will of her father, the late Commodore arn ag . The trustee was appointed without security in place of the testa- mentary trustees, on the ‘applibation of Mrs, Jau- don, as alleged, because the testamentary trustees would not sell securities paying only five per cent, and invest in those paying higher rates, ao a wished to have such bye 4 % eT Tan Tl sed to obtain stoc! corp” yeas claimed, for the benefit of the ison es! ‘and accordingly made loans of the banks aon securities belonging to tne estate. The new stock resulted —— and the trustee not being able to settle for the Ro directed the sale of the securities to the loans, On the trial it was claimed the ‘banks that they were without notice ret Jaudon’s interest, and took’ the collaterals in the ordinary course of business. It was also charged that the investment in the coal company stock the trustee was with the knowledge and consent of Mrs. Jaudon, the same as other investments of & similar character bad been, but that the operation being @ loss, she chose to rept te the transaction with the banks and fall back upon her rights as cestui que trust in violation of equity and justice. The Court below held that asthe certiticates of stock used by the trustee not only stated that the shares were held in trust, but gave the nameoft Mrs. Jaudon as the beneticiary, the banks must be considered a8 having notice, and the decree was that they make restitution, ‘It 1s here contended that the certiticates were not produced, and that no notice was gi that the stock was held in trust, and that under such circumstances the; aoe not to be charged even with constructive notice of be existence of the trust. But assuming that the: re chargeable with constructive notice, it is that the notice cast upon the banks no other duty than that of.ascertaining whether the power to Sell and buy securities ordinarily attending the title to such securities had been in this case law~ fully withheld from the trustee by the terms of the , CH if by aes = | ‘ oe wi gg committing a breach of trust, hones! presumed and there was no violation oF teat in this case; and the beneficiary solicited and con- sented to the transaction, hoping thereby to secure ba. rincome.
