‘ FINENCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, A FIRM STOCK MARKET. A Cheerful Viéw of the Situation. THE GOLD CLIQUE IN A MUDDLE. Kaiser William and Pres ident MacMahon. MONEY EASY. Another Report Forthcoming from Pacific Mail. WALL STREET, } Monpay, June 2—6 P. M. On 'Change to-day cotton was quiet and steady for spot, while futures were in moderately fair de- Mand at a %c. improvement. Flour was dull. Wheat and corn were in demand but at decidedly lewer prices, THE FOREIGN MARKET. In consequence of the holiday abroad, this being Whit-Monday, we have no London advices, save a Presa despatch to the London Times, from Berlin, which states that Germany is dissatisfied with President MacMahon’s address to the French Assembly and wilt not enter imto regu- lar diplomatic relations with his government until satisfiea that France will adhere to the Treaty oi Frankfort. This is not a statement Mkely to affect the markets on either side of the Atlantic; first, because it is improbable, and sec- endly because the financial world is already aware that France is even now prepared to pay to the uttermost farthing the last instalment of the in- demnity due on account of the war. The Bank of France has not only offered to advance the amount, but the people themselves, by economical living and honest industry, have earned and saved enough to ON the Treasury with more than is suMicient to pay this public dept, immense as it has been, and in another year will be piling up that which will give France a financial prestige and credit which, under the circumstances, may be written down as @ marvel in the history o/ nations, Like other in- cidental events that are seized upon in Wall street to secure aD artificial value this may be of use, When it becomes public property, to affect gold; but, so lar as we are at present advised, the rumor has been poured through an English sieve that wiil ot hold water. THE MONEY MARKET, The money market has been easy to borrowers on call at5a6per cent, prime mercantile paper selting readily at 7 a 134 per cent. Foreign ex- change is strong, with a more active business, prime sterling being 108% tor prime bankers’ sterling and 109% a 110 ior short sight. The following are the quotations as amended:— Sterling, sixty days’ commercial, 108 a 1083¢; do., good to prime bankers’, 1035 a 108%; do., short Bight, 109% a 110; Paris, sixty days, 5.30 a 5.25; do., short sight, 5.2134 a 5.: Prussian thalers, 7134 ‘® 72; Antwerp, 5.2744 a 5.2232; Switzerland, 5.26% a 6.214 ; Hambarg, 953¢ a 96; Amsterdam, 39% a 4014; Frankfort, 40% a 4134; Bremen, 95% a 96, The public debt statement for May shows a de- crease in the debt of $30,525,000. The receipts from customs to-day were $408,000. The treasury balances in connection with the public debt statement are as follows:— Ceres $6,000,000 Coin... 7,500,000 Certificates. 30,500,000 Outstanding legal tenders. : The beoks of the Treasury Department show that $240,000 of called 3 per cents are still outstanding. The internal revenue receipts to-day were $660,000, It isestimatea that the receipts for the month of June will be $9,500,0u0. GOLD 117% a 117%. The same muddle exists in the gold market that has been recorded for several days, The clique have found it uphill work to fight public sentiment, and prices instead of advancing have, from one in- fluence and another, either steadily held their own or receded, as was the case to-day. Every effort has been privately made which the season of the year warranted to create a speculative feeling, and even the banks have been invoked in taking the preliminary to lend their power to the monster combination. Somehow or other, hewever, the programme has met with a check, and it is now not wholly improbable that the effort to hake @ squeeze will be abandoned. The action of Secretary Richardson ia announcing his June policy naturally had its effect to weaken gold to-day, but there are other and deeper causes be- yond this mere temporary incentive to a drop which are likely to act as a barrier between the public and any crisis in specie, The following table will show the fluctuations in gold during the 117% Gold loans on time are quoted at +, “a 3-16 for thirty to sixty days, % a % for ninety days, wan for four months, 134 @ 2% for six months and 1a 2% tor the entire year—all for use. The transactions of the Gold Exchange Bank Were as follows:— Gold balances...... Currency balances, 3,822,690 Gross clearances 18,000 ‘The carrying rates of gold are quot sed at 4, 3, 6, 4%, 6 percent. A despatch from Washington says that, after deducting inteiest due and unpaid, accrued interest to date and coin certificates, there remains $10,000,000 of gold coin in the United States Treasury. BIDS FOR GOLD AND OFFERS FOR BONDS, The following order was issued to-day by Assist- ent Treasurer Hillhouse :— UNITED STATES TREASURY, New York, June 2, 1873.

Central Pacific gold bonds were sold at 103%, Union Pacific incomes at 60, Ohio and Mississippi consolidated sinking fund at 0534, and there was a good business in Union Pacifics, first mortgage, at 86% a 86%. The business, however, was not active, aithough the prices were steady.

The stock market shows a cheerful undertone. With the exception of Pacific Mall, about which there is 4 lingering doubt, for reasons that will be Stated hereafter, the feeling concerning the future of securities is more hopeful and buoyant than it has been during the last or the preceding week. Indeed, a comparison of the quotations for several days will demonstrate that there is a current of confidence at work, the resultant of which is a slow but steady appreciation of values, The move- ment in New York Central, for instance, is very decided, the price having advanced from 1004 on Saturday to 1023¢ to-day, the lowest price being 10134, but with the largest transactions at the higher figures, This improvement is doubtless due to the enlargement of facilities tor labor and earn- ings, now in progress. Lake Shore exhibits a similar impulse, the advance to-day having been 13¢ ver cent. The stock opened at 911, dropped for a moment to 91, then recovering sold at 91%, 91%, 915%, 91%, 92, 91%, 91%, but at the last board strengthened and closed at 92%. Western Union opened at 854, retired to 84%, but rebounded and remained firm to the end, with slight fluctuations between 854¢ and 85%, the highest point of the day being 855. Rook Island took part in che general im- provement and moved up to 110%, being 15 higher than the best price of Saturday. St, Paul was firm between the extremes of 54% a 55%, improving with the later tone of the market. To. ledo and Wabash also advanced, opening at 68% and closing firm at 69 a 6934. Ohio and Mississippi sold at 4134, 4134, 41}2, 41%, 42, 417¢ and 41%, closing atthe last named figure. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western was steady at an average of 105. ©., 0. and I. C. ranged irom 30% to 31%. Erie simply held its own at 6334 @ 63%. In Union Pacitic there was considerable activity, but not suilicient to cause @ larger vibration than about % per cent. ‘The chiet speculative feature of the Board con- tinues to be Pacific Mail, its stock opening at 40%, dropping to 40, 397% to 8934 @ 3914 before the call, reaching at the first board to 40, moving up a frac- tion after noon, but eventually dropping to 39% a 3044 a 9, at which price it closed. Tue impression of the street is that Pacific Mail 1s a good deal like an April day—tuil of showers and sunshine. Just now storms are foreboded, People who know say that within @ week @ statement will be presented by the new Board of Directors that will cause the holuers of stock to look about for a first class obituary notice, because it will be made to appear that there 1s @ million or two of difference between actual facts and mere suppositions, On the other hands, the shrewder ones insist that the whole present plan is to bear the market to the worst and then open battery in regal style as the precursor of an old-time battle. The Board of Directors met to-day, and among other things took into consideration a letter addressed to them by @ prominent banker and two other gentiemen, requesting that a true statement of the affairs of the company should be issued Jor the benefit of the stockholders—a statement that would neither mislead the public, thwart the interests of the company not do injustice to truth, As above in- timated, it is understood that such a report is forthcoming, the accountants being already at work upon the all-important figures, and that it will be gloomy enough to make everybody ‘stand irom under” and say Wall street prayers.

M. The trade movement was somewhat irregular to- day, but the chief interest on ‘Change centred in the grain markets, which were unsettled and lower. Fiour was dull and lower, while wheat was decidedly lower, but fairly active at the decline. Pretty heavy sales of Spring wheat were made for shipment at decidedly lower prices, and the tend- ency at the close was still im buyers’ favor. Corn was also decidedly lower under free receipts, but the sales were pretty large at the re- duced prices. Oats were {also lower—the market being depressed by the free receipts, Whiskey took a@ turn and sold higher. Pork re- mained dull and nominal, while other kinds of pro- visions were inactive, Lard was quiet, but steady. Freights were about steady, though vessels for grain charter were easy, Cotton was quiet for spot, but in better demand and an 3gc. per Ib. better for future.
