FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, DECORATION DAY. A Dull Market Pre- dicted. English Views of the Mon- etary Situation. pe NS SPECULATORS ON THE BACK SEATS. The Foreign Market Buoyant. MONEY EASY. Union Pacific and Pacific Mail the Features of the Day. The “Pool” Still Mys- terious. GOLD STEADY. Stocks Firm but Dull and Gouctaly Unchanged. WALL STREET, THURSDAY, May 29—6 P. M. DEGORATION DAY. The law having made to-morrow a holiday, Neither of the boards of Wall street will be in ses sien. Rest will therefore come to surcharged minds, and possibly in the interim there will be a review of the situation that will result in more ®ane and active movements than have recently been noted. The street complains of duiness, The broker holds Iris chin down with a sort of serio- omic patience; the outside speculator lingers @round the telegraphic tape, in the expectation that one moment or another will show the rise or Mail on which he has based his hopes of gain, talking sense and nonsense in the same breath, and won- ering at the pertinacy of those spasms in specula- tion which trip arithmetically athwart his eye, tor ‘the instant encouraging and then blasting his an- Sicipations, x THE “LAME DUCK” kewise comes into the picture, and, hovering around his old stamping ground, gathers @ sort of imterest in the progress of daily events and venti Jates his experience on the “what was and might have been;” and so, through all the variations of ‘Wall street life, we have echoes upon echoes of thought and speculation. It amounts to nothing. Boiled down, the situation may be summarized in half a dozen words, There isn’t a man on Change or out of it, rich or poor, who can tell ‘what a day may bring forth, the real operators are idle. THE “SMALL FRY’? are content with a broker’s commission. In short, there is no leading mind to give direction to the Bendency of Summer events, and it does not ap- pear probable, from the present standpoint that until Fall, any “boss” bull or bear will deign to up- wet his equanimity to that degree which is neces- wary to evoke the full magnetism of the market. Practically there is no probability of financial dis- turbance either in the near or the farfuture. The monetary condition is strong. The gold clique, if they really possess power, are holding it latent. Stocks are on their barebones—at least, such is the RASeral belief. There are no rasping influences a@t work abroad, THE SITUATION AT HOME, among railroads, government and State securities, imports, exports, in the cotton and produce mar- kets—in fact, in ail those premises which form the wasis of speculative calculation—is at once healthy ani within command. Hence there seems to be @o promising reward at stake in an attempt to overturn the market during these coming Summer months, and we shall doubtless sce just the same imane condition reperted from day to day that has been recorded during the past two or three weeks. ‘Ws have entered the Summer solstice, and the Btock and Gold boards have recognized the fact by agreeing to adjourn daily at three P.M. in order to enable their members to leave town ata weasonably luxurious hour. THE FOREIGN MARKET ‘was buoyant. The fact that the directors of the Bank of England on this, their weekly day of con- ference, #aw no reason to change their rate of dis- count; that the premium on the French loan in view ofthe possibilities of a French disturbance that would have unquestionably displaced values, had it occurred, jumped to an advance of 6% per cent; shat consols and all American securities are stronger and steadier, gave a tone to the local mar- ket that was felt, perhaps inferentially, througn- ut the day. Speaking of the present foreign situa- tion, the /nvestors’ Guardian, of the 17th of May, Yakes a cheerful view when it states that “one cir- cumstance in connection with the LATE UNPRECEDENTED RUN upon the cellars of the Bank of England is worthy Of especial note, and is calculated to present a theme of much congratulation to financters and the country generally. Eight years ago there came to ‘us from most of our important colonies a simulta- neous demand for money, and the London dealers effected large loans for the Cape, Australia, New Zealand, Victoria and Mauritius, on terms very ad- vantageous to oursel The event has proved ‘that there was a threefold advantage in these loans, Not only did the subscribers of the money divide among themselves from one to two per cent annu- ally on ajl that passed through their hands, but they mow have the satisfaction of knowing that their ex- ertions have greatly stimulated colonial enterprise and progress, and also that the borrowers are by this time enabled to become in their turn lenders to a large amount. There is at the present mo- ment a steady influx of gold from nearly all the volonies named, which has a very appreciable effect in diminishing the tension produced by the extraordinary convuisions of European money markets during the past few years. All this is as it should be; and it is salutary to see so clear an Uustration of the fact that our well-placed con- Mdence in our colonies redounds to our own ad- Wantage with certainty and precision. We are mow reaping th efit of that remarkable advance In colonial cc It may be addea for to the above that the inquiry GOLD IN ENGLAND is still very active, and while the United Stetes has no immediate reason to send especie forward Austratia and other colonies of Great Britain have already shipped to an extent well nigh equal to the Continental demand, so that the b ec in the Bank of England is not very likely to be seriously disturbed, whatever may be the slim accounts to ahe contrary. The advices of to-day show that Erie was easy at 4944 a 494; Lew fives advanced + per wept, and are now quoted at 0%; the issues of 1667 are at 9434 amd ten-forties at $8} a 89. Paris rentes, participating in the firmness of the Con- tinental market, have advanced to 66.0. THE MONEY MARKET preserves ite equanimity, Anybody who possesses good commercial paper can secure from 7 to 9 per eent discount thereon, while call loans range from 6to7per cent. Foreign exchange was dull trom 106% to 108% for prime bankers’ sixty days’ ster- ling, and 109% & 109% for sight. The prices for Continental exchange are the same as quoted yesterday. The customs receipts May wore $870,000, ‘The Assistant Treasurer pafd out $104,000" on account of interest, and $1,400 in redemption of 520 bonds. The imports of ary goods having been a subject of some inquiry the Custom House oMictals state that they will vary but little from the estimate of last week. Still no figures can be given. GOLD STRADY—1183 & 118%. The gold market showed such slight vibrations that they are scarcely worthy of comment as re- gards any prob;ematical movement in the com- Modity. The clique bought, the clique sold, the clique lent; but for what purpose the various movements were made is yet to ve developed. The very mystery which attends these transactions tends to make outside operators more than ordinar- ily cautious, and possibly it will be found that at the close this righteous caution has superinduced strength sufficient to withstand the final charge along the line that is anticipated. There are sev- eral figures behind the screen that are yet to be heard from. The market opened at 118%, fell off a point, advanced to 11834, drooped again to 118%, and fluctuated all day at this range or figures. ‘The prices will be scen from the following table:— 104. M. cera sd 118% 118% M. +1184 @ 118% ‘The carrying rates were 2, 1, 3, 4, 5, and 4 per cent and flat for borrowing. The transactions of the Gold Exchange Bank are shown as jollowa:— $3,132,160 + 3,074,019 Grogs clearances. +++ 18,464,000 The bids for gold at the Sub-Treasury amounted to $2,041,000; the prices ranging from 117.63 to 118.42, One million was sold. One-half of this amount is ordered to be paid in legal tenders, The Silesia, which sailed to-day, carried cut $94,000 in silver bars. It should have been stated in another place that the Bank of England lose £29,000 on ite balance, but in wiew of its receipts this is mere bagatelle. 1t is said to have increased £129,000, The Custom House receipts to-day were $376,000, Internal Revenue receipts, $400,000. The Treasury balances at the close of business were :— $3,500,000 78, 640,000 26,700,600 Certificates...

Union Pacific incomes like- wise went up 1 per cent, with similar result. Chi- cago, Rock Island and Pacilics sold at 104. tn fact, the general tone of the market was firmer and showed a tendency to advance, It should be added that the market was weaker at the close.

Beyond the speculative movement in Pacific Mail and Union Pacific itis idieto describe the prevail- ing phase of the stock market as representing any other than a condition of dulness. With the excep- tions named stocks were generally firm, and the fluctuations indicated no influences at work calcu- lated to disturb the existing condition.

It also fought its way obstinately, found buy- ers at 275 @ 27%, then dropped to 26%, but closed strong at 27, Western Union was steady between the extremes of 847% a 841. C., C. and I.

Rock Island was a shade firmer at 108% @ 108%. Lake Shore aiso maintained its recently quoted figures.

In other cases there were more decided changes, nearly all of which were downward. Cotton was still dull, while cotton fabrics were dull and heavy. At the Produce Exchange flour was still dull and declining. Wheat was dull and heavy, Winter being decidedly lower. Corn was higher under a fair demand and light receipts. Other commodities were without cssential change. Corron om the spot was moderately active, with the feeling somewhat in the buyer's favor.

MARY'S FREE HOSPITAL. Opening of a New Home for Sick Chil- dren Yesterday in Thirty-fourth. Street—A Galaxy of Beauty and a Cluster of Tender Hearts. The above institution changed its location on the 1st of May from 206 West Fortieth street, where it has been doing good work for three years past, to 407 West Thirty-fourth street, ‘near Ninth ave- nue. Yesterday was the opening day of the new house, and it was crowded with a large number of friends, chiefyladics, and a few clergymen. The house is more commodious than that in Fortieth street, and is capable of affording accommodations for fifty children, In consequence of the removal the number of admissions has been limited, and there are at present fifteen children as patients, The object of the institution is to place the sick children of the destitute and the poor under careful nursing and the highest medical skiil. When the children are restored to Lealth they are returned to their homes or to the institution from which they were sent. The care of the children is entrusted to the sisterhood of the Protestant Epis- copal Order of St. Mary, who, however, have adopted a mode of dress that has hitherto been confined to the sisterhoods of the Catholic Church, They bes aed to be intelligent, thoughtful, spaniel trained ladies, whose hearts are manifestly in their work. They accept all children from the ages of two to fourteen, whose parents are unabfe, dur- ing their sickness, to provide them that care that is essential for their recovery or can mitigate their sickness. cee pene however, the hope of res- toration to health and life of all their tittle flock Is denied this self-denying sisterhood. Two little girls, inmates of the Hospital, were among the patients a Hopeless of whom it was stated that they ‘are in a hopeless stage of consumption. Dr. Dix (of Trinity church) delivered a short address, getting forth the object of the institution, = humbleness of its beginning, and its probable nsion in the future. A short religious service fol jowed, in the course of which the tuture of this institution was commended to the care of the Father of all mercies. The rooms during the religious exereises were crowded with lacies, who manifested & most devout attention. Gifts of flowers, furniture, pote I engravings, litho- graphs, toys and Tait dat couttibutes towsris pacd usek eep! th were a a er by the friends, and, it was understood fr ie Sisters yesterday, would always be ‘acceptable. THE OASE OF SUSAN B ANTHONY, To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— ‘When Miss Anthony was arrested for voting the straight republican ticket last Fall, and with her were arrested fourteen other ladies who had gal- lantly followed her example, she, with rare gen- erosity, as the chief offender, took upon herself the whole costs of the suits. Although these women had done no more than scores 07 other good repub+ licans were commended for doing they were arrested and prosecuted as if they had been guilty of acrime. The United States put out its power- fal arm to crush down these fliteen “reputable women” because they had dared to exercise what they conceived to be the right of every citizen. Released on bail, as the case was to be tricd be- fore a ints, Miss Anthony at once set about forming @ public opinion in her favor, and with indomitable piack stumped Monroe county, presenting to large audiences every night her view of the law, until the District Attorney declared that it would be impessibie to find a jury to convict her. ‘The case was called up jast week and, despite the protests of the counsel for the delendants, was postponed to the June term of the Court, to be held in Canandaigua, ‘Though perhaps somewhat dis- turbed, Miss Anthony, no wise disheartened, has already started on the canvass of Ontario county, which she will no doubt prosecute as vigorously during the Summer’s heat as she did that of Monree county during the Winter's cold. Such heroism deserves respect and aid. A com- mittee to raise money for her defence has been formed, and all those willing to help a good cause can send georevarons by post-office order or in cash to Mra.
