It was the topic of conversation by the crowds on their way from church yesterday morning. It will be seen by the laterviews given below that further investigation in this catastrophe is likely to lead to develop- ite that will show that the late President was y not quite so much to blame as the first reports would indicate, and that his troubles are but the representative troubles of men in a similar position in iife on both sides. | STATEMENT OF ONE OF THE BANK OFFICIALS. Yesterday a reporter of the HeRALD had a con, versation with one of the bank ofiicials, who was im a positton to speak with authority and intelil- gence as to the affairs of tne company.

FINANGLAL AND COMMERCIAL, REVIEW OF THE PAST WEEK. The Course of Gold---How Much is in Posses- sion of the Treasury ! CURIOUS FACTS FOR THINKING PEOPLE. A Suspicious Puzzle in the Public Bookkeeping. THE SQUEEZE IN ERIE. A Word About Speculative Bankers. The Fray To Be Renewed To-Day. THE BANK STATEMENT. WALL STREET, Boxpay, July 20, ists. } THE MONEY MARKET during the week was unusually easy and presents no indications ef the Autumn stringency which, by some, has been anticipated. Large amounts of capital were offered for datly use without takers, although at times the business was exceedingly ac- tive in consequence of the extensive dealing in stocks, This, however, was but transient. Prices ruled from3 to 4 per cent on call, with exceptional loans at 6 per cent on call. Loans for 30 days ruled at about 5a6 per cent; for 90 days,6a7per cent; for four months, 7 per cent, and 7 per cent goid for all tne year. THE FLUCTUATIONS OF GOLD during the week have been considerable, the two extremes having been 115% and 1164. The price closed at 116. The shipments for two weeks amount to nearly $6,000,000, with the prospect that an equal sum will go forward during the ensuing fortnight. It is not dificult to guess at the influence of this outfew on the gold specula- tion. The interest that attaches to THE MANIPULATION OF GOLD now in progress has in nowise abated during the past week. Indeed, the spirit of inquiry on the subject is enlarging. Other journals than the HERALD are beginning to discuss the question, “Whither are we drifting ?” and to investigate for themseives the actua! financial condition of the United States Treasury. It is but a day or two ago that a communication was published in these columns disproving the statement that there are $80,000,000 of gold in the Treasury, against which the only claims were the outstanding certificates amounting 10.$43,000,000, thereby endeavoring to convey vhe impression that the government is the actual owner of $37,000,000 of coin. As a demon- stration the writer analyzed the Treasury state- ment for the month of May, according to which there was :— Interest due and unpaid $3,556,456 Interest due on that day In 14 9,201 Outstanding coin certific; 24,787,400 * $45,493,158 coin in the Treasury amounting to. $76,976,440 Deduct demand obligations............. 45,493,168 Balance belonging to Treasury........ $31,483,281 To whick add for customs,.. ive and TUDE. 0... cseeeeseececeeeseseeescrseees 28,000,000 Total. ¥ Leceeeeeeees $54,483,281 From which deduct for gold soid May and June. ,000,000 Interest due July 1. a 316,742 ———_ 38,816,357 Total...... sees $15,666,824 —Thus leaving th government the actual owner of only about fifteen and a half million dollars on the 1st day of July, with an accrued and undue inter- est at that time amounting to nearly ten millions of dollars. And this is according to the official es- timate. The puzzling manner in which the Treas- ury of the United States conducts its operations with the Syndicate is also a subject of which the American people yet remain in profound igno- Trance. The belief has gone abroad, and it is evi- dently not without foundation, that the ESTIMABLE BODY OF BANKERS are kindly permitted to deposit their checks in the place of the gold realized from their transactions as representatives of the government, and “we, the people,” are daily invited by the Washington oMice to accept the statement that thirty-six or thirty-nine millions represent actual gold instead of being partly made up of the due bills of those mer- chants who are trading on the public credit of tne nation. AS was recently published by a morning contemporary, on the 1st of June the Secretary re Ported the coin in the Treasury, after deducting. that belonging to private depositors, at $45,139,716. On July 1 it was reported at $48,047,403, the certi- ficates meanwhile having increased $9,000,000. The Treasury had received auring the month only about $11,000,000 from customs, and had paid out, in round numbers, $3,000,000 for past due interest, $13,000,000 for five-twenties redeemed, and $7,000,000 sold by the Sub-Treasurer in this city, making the total paid out $23,000,000. Now, how was it possible for the Treasury to pay Out $12,000,000 more than it received, and, at the same time, gain $3,000,000 in its balance? “But you must consider,” some simple-minded indi- vidual may reply, “that the Syndicate may have paid for its bonds,” Nothing of the kind. The Syndicate could not have paid into the Treasury 80 large @ sum a8 $16,000,000 without depleting th: New York banks of their gold certificates, and so far from losing gold the New York banks were steadily GATNING IN SPECIE throughout the month of June. In five weeks, from May 81 to July 5, their specie averages in- creased $14,000,000, Not one-fifth of that sum was received overland from the mines and no gold at allfrom Europe. Substantially, the whole of the sum gained by the banks came from the Treasury How, then, can we solve this suepicious puzzle in- the Treasury bookkeeping? The solution is clear enough. The $15,000,000 or thereaboyts in gold re. quired to balance the Treasury account for the month of Jane was supposed to be in the posses- sion of the government at London. No one outside the Ring can tell whether it really was or is in the hands of the government or in those of the Syndi- cate. Most likely it is still actually, if not tech- nically, in the keeping of the Syndicate. It is nothing that the coin certificates may at any time be presented for redemption and exhaust the Treasury. The grand, salient fact always to be borne in mind by the business community is that if all THR OLD STOCKINGS | in the United States were emptied of their goid to- day the sum total would probably not reach seventy-five millions of dollars, or one per cent of the paper circulation of the country. In fact, if the real weakness of the Treasury in this matter was fally understood and appreciated there is not an importer in New York who would not have ready secured gold suMcient tor lis busi- ness requirements and to weather an emer- gency that, sooner or later, is in- evitable. At the present ume there is pot enough of gold in the banks or cisewhere, if it @ouid be suddenly needed, to “go around,” while government is @t the mercy of @ handful of speculators, who have it in their power to absorb every dollar that it puts upon the market, and then for their own purposes stop it from the coun- try. In 1861 it js estimated that there were about $380,000,000 of gold and silver in use asa circulating medium, Where is it to-day? Gone—exported and in process of exportation, and we are left with less real financial strength than even POOR LITTLE FRANCE, which is just now paying the last instalments of a mighty debt. Our bonds are worth one hundred cents on the dollar, because government has put forth all its efforts to that end, and expended. mo energy in giving @ par value to its cur- renoy, #0 that at the present moment it would be a physical impossibility to pay one per cent of tne paper circulation it has endorsed and forced the people to accept. Surely it would seem to be of the highest financial importance that this condition of affairs should be promptly changed. ‘There is no cogent reason why the United States Treasury should not accumulate and hold $100,000,000 in gold. It would be a step iorward in the direction of SPRCIE PAYMENTS, for it would establish that condition of confidence which should precede the declaration by the gov- ernment that such payments had been resumed, It would strip speculation in gold of its thorns, destroy facilities for making great coraers, and prevent that sertous distur bance to values which inevitably re- sults from the power ofa few to put the price of coin at any figure they may see fit, Tne subject is one of vast importance to our country and all of its commercial interests, and although our people are rushing at railroad speed to wealth, such as it is, let them pause occasionally to giv ed to the thenght that the present is not a condition of things which cap last forever. Our inflation will collapse any balloon in the world, and one has only to look around him to discover the process steadliy going on. > THR BANK STATEMENT, Abank statement less satisiactory than thatofthe preceding week has been anticipated, especially with reference to the loss of specie, This is due chienly to the continual outfow to Europe, which is repre- sented by $2,384,400, The total Habilities have in- creased $1,179,200, and the banks hold $2,161,600, leas than what is known as lawiul money in excess Of the legal reserve of 25 per cent reported last week.

Reviewing the operations of the week in the stock market, we have seen activity manifested along the entire line, but particularly shown in those stoeks controlled by Mr. Vanderbilt. West- ern Union moved from 863, to 91%, with a large speculative demand, Jalyog off a trifle yesterday, but recovering toward the close of the day to 90%. Lake Shore advanced from 91% to 943, closing yesterday at 935% a 93%. New York Central showed an improvement of1'¢ per cent, Harlem 145 per cent. The extremes in Union Pacific were 27% 429%. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western went from 99% to 102%. Pacific Mail suffered a drop to 874s, with recovery to 39%, closing at 38% & «8B. Ohio and Mississippi im- proved from 39% to “41% and was firm yesterday afternoon at 41 o 41%. In Northwestern tife work of distribution is still going on, and the stock is quietly getting back into the speculative arena. Large sales of the stock were made during the week, and unless the attention of the market is absorbed by the work in Ene will probably command considerable atten- tion during the forthcoming week. The earnings last week were $48,000 in excess of last year, and there has been an increase of $300,000 since June 1. Wabash has likewise shown an ascending dis- position, the advance being nearly 3 per cent. These figures will sufficiently indicate the lively character of the market and the strength of the inflvences that have been exerted during this Sum- mer speculation. Large orders have been received from outside sources and it is presumable, judging from the healthy and encouraging tone whieh pre- Vatls, that there will be no diminutionin the same for the present. ERIE. The great feature of the week developed itself yesterday in the shape of a “squeeze” in Erie, which began to exnibit its symptoms early in the day. The operation commenced with the price at 58%, from which there was a steady advance until if reached 6544. At the very last, however, it re-, ceded to 65 a 641%, The excitement at times among those chiefly interested was very considerable, the stock loaning from to 1 per cent per day for carrying. The movement, however, was entireiy artificial and distinctive, prices in London being as low as 4534 @ 45%, and the market there dull. Its probable cause is as follows:—For a long time there has been more or less of short interest in the stock, the strength of which having been tested by some of the German bankers who have been leaning it flat. for several months, three or four of them at last combined to force up the price and call in the loans, with the result described. It is said that the total number of shares in the country is avout one hundred and fifty thousana, of which say fifty thousand are Owned outside the city of New York. Of the re- maining number it is ught that about sixty thousand are represented by the German bankers aforesaid, the rest being scattered. It is believed that most of THE OLD SHORT INTEREST was covered yesterday, Doubtless a number of new shorts entered the fleld, but it would seem to be the height of imprudence to pursue sucha course with #0 littie stock on this side of the Atlantic as is Known to exist at present. From twenty-five to thirty thousand shares are reported to be on their way from Europe in steamers to arrive this week, and it is highly probable that large amounts telegraphed for yesterday afternoon will come in from various Amortean localities dur- ing to-morrow and the ensuing day. The contest will be renewed to-morrow morning, but the new heads that are hurt will owe it to the blind per- tinacity with which they engage in a fray where the ammunition is all on one side. One of the vice presidents of Erie is said te have sold largely yesterday of the Canadian stock sent here tobe voted upon by proxy. The total amount of sales was 29,800 shares, A word or two may be added with reference to THE AUTHORS OF THIS SPECULATION, They are alleged tobe German bankers—a class of gentlemen heretofore belteved to be conserva- tive, cautious and safe, as representing that im- portant element of commerge and fnance—foreign exchange. If the statement be true, they have done as much to destroy confidence in their busi- ness as would have resulted to a national banking institution had it become known that the officers thereof, either with their own or the funds of the establishment, had entered the maelstrom o! Wall street and attempted to step its treacherous ourrent. If s man is @ banker let him #0 remain; for from the moment he goes beyond his legitimate domain to dabbie in stocks and create sharp corners, no matter what may be Bis temporary success, just then and there, the business world begin.te scan his acts with sus- picion, and when depositing their money for the purchase of a foreign bill of credit will be prone to wouder whether or not the amount it represents may not beswallowed up im some speculation at home or abroad.

Sarurpay, July 19—6 P, M. There was a better demand for merchandise last week than had previously prevailed since the clos- ing up of the Spring season, There was a freer movement in many of the leading commodities, though no general activity. Values were very gen- erally irregular and subjected to conscant fuctua- tions, oftentimes of a decidedly radical character, Dry goods were still slow of sale, although Winter woollens were sought after to some extent, as were also heavy plain musiins, some of which sold at lower figures, There was also rather more stir in the hardware business values of which remained steady, Cotton was irregular and of uncertain value all through the week, There wasa colerably active movement in breadstuifs, which were sold freely on foreign ac- count, for the most part of about the closing prices of last week, though with lower freights there was an improvement towards tne latter part of the week. Purchases for forward delivery have been fair, and im all cases at full prices, continued confidence in the, market being thereby manifested. Flour advanced materially during the week, particularly the shipping grades. Corn ruled pretty firm all through the week, and prime conditioned sold at better figures. Pro- visions ruled steady, with a quiet market through most ot the week.
