WALL STREET, } Fripay, August 20—6 P, M. ‘On Change to-day “spot’’ cotton was less active and steady, while for forward delivery the market ‘was moderately active at a shade easier prices. Flour, under a fair export demand, was rather ‘Mfirmer. For wheat the market was excited, anda large business was consummated at decidedly higher prices. Corn was in good request at im- proved prices. THE FOREIGN MARKET \ to-day affords no suggestive points beyond the ad- vance in Erie to 4944, which, acting upon this may- ket, gaye to it temporary strength, with a reaction that will be hereafter noted. The movement @broad is attributed to reports from this side con- cerning the possibility of a dividend on the com- ‘mon stock, It is already published and believed there that a dividend will be made on the preferred stock, but it is fair to assume that the condition of the company is not well understood by other than an exceptional few who are in daily communication with their American agents. Consols are reported steady at 925 a 92% for money and 92% a 92% for account. United States bonds of 1867 are quoted at 953, ten-forties at 903 and new fives at 914. In Frankfort five-twenties were 97% for the issue of 1862, French rentes stand at 57.90, with consid- erable activity in that market, In Amsterdam the prices were as followss—Union Pacific first mort- gage, 69; Union Pacific stock, 23; Northwestern preferred, 7034; St. Paul preferred, 61; Erie shares, 52%. THE APPROACHING STRINGENCY. ‘The situation in the West is by no means calcu- lated to alleviate that which exists here. Wehave already shown that purely natural influences have been slowly generating, the end of which will be a stringent money market. This view is now veri- fied by advices from Chicago, which state that the ‘banks of that city, last week, sent out. upwards of $4,000,000 of currency, which was distributed ‘through the Northwest, while during the present week the shipments have been at the rate of $500,000 per day. Currency is therefore scarce, Motwithstanding the large shipments from New York, and the stock on hand so small as actually to Gepress exchange on New York, which, on the 26th inst. was reported unsalable for currency, though quoted pominally' at from 1-10 to % of one per cent discount, THE EXPERIENCE OF CHICAGO is doubtless that of St. Louls and Cincinatti, and when the tide reaches New York with its full force ‘we shall doubtiess find that the most cautious of finanajers has not trimmed his sails a moment too early in anticipating the tightness which seems inevitable. What course Secretary Richardson may ‘be called upon to pursue is by no means definite. Even conceding his right to issue a part or the ‘whole of the so called “reserve” of $44,000,000 of legal tenders, the question next arising is, How is this money to be put out? What is to be the modus wperandi? There are but two methods. The Secretary must either PURCHASE BONDS or distribute his greenbacks through the payment of Treasury drafts. Government cannot well pur- chase bonds, because there are none on the market @t the legal price, the Secretary being limited to par in gold. He cannot loan legal tenders to the ‘Danks on any class of security they may proffer. He must, therefore, either resort to the somewhat questionable plan pursued by him last October or suspend ‘nis sales of geld, and thereby allow his currency balances to be so far reduced as toenabie him to pay his current expenses in greenbacks, But the issue of any additional legal tenders will stimuiate the price of gold and United States bonds probably toeven higher figures than those which are now described as representing fictitious values and deplored as tending to demoralize ‘trade. THE RATES FOR MONEY - Gre about the same as last quoted. Call loans were made at 5 per cent, with a reduction toward the close to3 per cent. The offerings were abundant for all business purposes, Mereantile paper, with short dates, was disposed of at 7 per cent, and long dates are held at 8a10 per cent, Foreign exchanges were weak and lower, actual business being done at 107% a 107% for prime sixty days’ sterling and 108% a 108% for sight. This weak- ness was doubtiess due to the strength of gold and the offering of bills against purchases of Erie on London account. IMPORTS. The import entries of dry goods at the port of New York for the week amount in coin valuation to $2,862,116, the general merchandise being esti- mated at $5,500,000, making an aggregate of $8,362,116. The amount thrown upon the market ‘Was $3,262,878, GOLD FLUCTUATING—115% A 11534. The gold market to-day was subject to whims, and not a few operators were frank to confess that they were dazed by the evidences of the shrewd and curious combinations with which they had to contend. Frat, it appeared that the $1,500,000 of gold bought resterday at the government sale at 115.40 by somebody outside of the “pool” was this morning sold to the latter for115%. Then the price ascended to 115% a 115% @115%, and the loaning Tate advanced to 1-32 of 1 per cent per diem. By this coup men became confused. A stroke ofstrategy was interpreted as weakness, The death struggle was Predicted, and, as if to add force to the thought, Prices began to descend, going from 115% to 11534 & 115%, and finally to the lowest price of the day. ‘When noses were subsequently counted, however, ‘victims confessed themselves by the score, and the ‘command of the situation was accorded where it belongs. It is estimated that the chief operators in gold hold about $30,000,000, at an average of say 116, Should the price drop to’ 110 they will lose about $1,500,000. It is not an intricate arithmetical question whether so small 4 loss against such large chances as are presented by a controlling infuence over the goid, stock and money markets can be safely risked. The rates paid for carrying to-day ‘Were 3, 2, 34, 4, 2, and 1 per cent. and 2; 3 and 1-32 to flat for borrowing. “! ‘The fluctuations of gold were as follows: ‘10:00 A. M.. 10:01 A. o.

THE CHICAGO, ROCK ISLAND AND PACIFIC RAILROAD, A correspondent, following up the discusaion on the above subject, writes:. In yesterday's HERALD “Mehr Licht” has disposed of the money realized from the'sale of 15,000 shares of stock by appropriating it to advances to the and Southwestern Ratiroad, said advances covering the past three years. This we take to be highly satisfactory to certain parties; but we are curious to know how ne as satisiactorily dis} I of the money realized from the sale of 30,000 a! in 1871 and 1872 as set forth in the article of the 27th inst. It is quite refreshing in these times to notice with what perfect faith he accepts the company’s reports of “net income” which to him “seems to be gues Satisiactory exhibit of the Management of the company.” Now it is just these exhibits of net income as made up by the company which in previous articles we have heen preparing to drive through, and we should not have iurther discuased the subject except for his expressed desire tor more light, until suchtime as our tables were fully completed and we were ready to show to the satisfaction of all parties who wish light rather than oe that the company have not for several years past earned the. full amount of dividends paid, and that the whole balance of income aceount has been derived from sales of stock. This we expect to demon- strate 80 clearly by figures and comparisons that Be ac ’ statements will no longer deceive. We will give “Mehr Licht” one item as a cue, which he may follow out for himself while we are com- leting our table. Thus, in 1866, tne Chicago and ock Island, 228 bed im length, ran its trains 1,234,151 miles, and carried equal to 85,142,973 tons one mile, bes an expense of $1,922,439, or 225 cent for each ton per mile, This company were then p: 10 per cent per annum and were selling no stock. Now by the report of 1873 we find the length of road 666 miles, trains running 6,277,967 miles and the carrying equal to 261,776,265 vons one mile, at a cost, as they eR or of only an additional ex- neg of $1,597,; or 1.34 cents for each ton per Does any one believe that there has been any such reduction in tne cost of trans; ortation when we recollect the increased length of road to be kept up? Willit occur to “Mehr Licht’ that an “open construction account is a convenient thing ave about a railroad’ into which to submerge ipoonteatenty large operating expenses when it is desirable that “net tneome' pa bat market for new stock? In re} Ft ny fa ries whether the company are likely to pay their ‘Outober dividend, the reply 18 that we are not in the conf. dence of the direction, but it will be surprising if the Chicago, Island and Pacific Railroad Oom- pany ever fail to pay their regular dividends so long as there is a market for the stock above par. THE STOCK MARK#. The impelling force to-day was from the line of Vanderbilt stocks. These controiled and held the market. Various small speculative influences were at work elsewhere, but nothing was strong enough to successfully antagonize the strength which the stocks referred to gave to the general situation. It may be wrong to consider these securities as the keynote of the position, but they-have shown such power during recent fluctuations; they have brought out such a host of sup- porters; they have ewen to-day evoked from Saratoga such large orders for the purchase of Western Union, as to verify the belief, uttered several weeks ago, that when one man, oldas he is, chooses to move Wall-street up or down, he not only possesses the power to do so, but the personal relationship that brings out bank checks and makes men swear by their faith in his ultimate determination to win. The record of transactions at the Board is as follows:—In Lake Shore, Western Union and New York Central the advance ranged from % to 1% percent, Erie responded to the London market, and after an opening at 605; moved up to 62, with close at 614%. Wabash opened at 67% ana sold at 60, with a close at 68%, Northwest common sold at 64% a 65, and Ohio and Mississippi at 39% a 89%. Pacific Mail fluctuated between 445; @ 44, most ef the business being at the smaller fractions, The changes in the remainder of the list were only about 3 to 5 per cent, HIGHEST AND LOWEST, ‘The following table shows the highest and lowest prices of the day:— Hig) Lowest.

On ‘Change breadstuffs were bought often and sales to extent were consummated, gener- erally at better prices. Flour was firmer. Wheat was very active, especially lots to arrive, which were higher, with large sales at the advance, Spot wheat was exceedingly scarce and also dearer. Corn in fair demand and rather dearer, Oats were very firm. Whiskey was again pushed up, the light re- ceipts helping it al Provisions were still depressed with but little disposition to operate on the part of buyers. Groceries were firm and the demand moderately fair, Cotton was Jess active, with “spot” ruling steady, and “future” a shade easier. Petroleum was not materially changed in value.
