FINANCIAL AND COMMEROWAL, STOCKS MORE PROMISING. A Reaction in the Market and Gen- eral Advance of Prices, American Securities Abroad Buoy- ant and Active. GOVERNMENT BONDS FIRM. German Bankers Selling to Readjust Their Differences in Gold. MONEY STILL FIRM. WALL STREET, } Fripay, Sept. 12—6 P, M. On ‘Change to-day cotton’ was less active and Steady for “spot,” while futures were in moderate request at easier rates. Flour met with a moderate @emand at previous prices. Wheat and corn were steadier and in moderately fair request. THE FOREIGN MARKET offers no marked features for comment to-day. The Bank of England lost £70,000 bullion by with- drawal. American securities were buoyant and strong. In Paris rentes were firm at 58f. 223¢0. The following are the latest quotations :—Consols for money, 924 892%; consols for account, 925 a 92 11-16; five-twenty bonds of 1865, old, 953¢ 295%; five-twenty bonds of 1867, 9546 @ 95%; ten-forty. bonds, 905 a 90%; new fives, 9134 a 91%; Erie Tailway shares, 47% a 48; new French loan, 7% a 1X per cent premium. Money at the Stock Ex- whange and discounts in the open market were a ghade easier at the close. To-day is settling day at ‘the Exchange. THE MONEY MARKET remains in about the same condition as last quoted, Loans were made on call at 7 per cent, currency and gold, during the greater part of the day, but Closed in open market at 5 and 6 A good deal more of discrimination than usual, with reference ‘to the character of collaterals, it is said, is being exercised by lenders, which has provoked greater ‘caution on the part of brokers in enlarging busi mess, except on liberal margins. The prevailing ate for stock renewals was 7 per cent, currency, ‘hough Lake Shore ana New York Central loaned at 6 per cent. Foreign exchange was dull and quiet at 108% 9 1083 for prime sterling sixty-day ‘bills and 10934 a 109:4 for short sight. IMPORTS, ‘The estimated imports of general merchandise for the week is $4,100,000, Of ary goods there has been imported $2,503,108, making a total of 96,603,108, The amount thrown on the market ‘Was $2,853,374, GOLD STRONGER. Gold moved up to-day to 111%, opening at 111% ‘nd closing at 111%. The lowest price was 111%, rom which the rally was prompt and upward, It 4s understood that the German bankers were ‘buyers to aconsiderable extent, owing to the fact hat our government bond market is now some- ‘what above that of London, which compels an ad- justment of averages through the gold market. ‘The rates paid for carrying were 6, 4, 5, 3, 3}, and 2 per cent, and for borrowing 164 to flat, ‘The prices of gold to-day were :— my 1136 The operations of the Gold Exchange ank to-day “were as follows :— CLEARING HOUSE STATEMENT.

RAILROAD BONDS. Nothing new is to be said concerning these Deyond a generally favorable comment upon their firmness. Not much activity in them can be noted, Bowever, to-day. The following sales were made at ‘the Board :—Central Pacific gold bonds, 9914; Union Pacific first mortgage, 7934; Toledo and Wabash ret mortgage, 953; Toledo and Wabash con- Bolidated and convertible, 84%; Ohio and Mis- sissippi second do., 83; Milwaukee and St. Paul sevens, gold, 88; C,, C. and I.

Asit ‘was, the German bankers were the largest scliers, and we are informed that the majority of their offerings were taken by the American bankers. In consequence of the fall in gold this market is now zemporarily above that of London; hence the Ger- man banker must for the moment become a bear in gold. He buys hits bonds in London for gold and sells them in New York for currency, and must, perforce, enter the gold market, in order to get even on the transaction by selling gold @ud buying back the bonds in currency, even though it may pe at a trifle higher figure. The quotations to-day were as follows:—United States currency sixes, 113 a 113%; do. sixes, 1881, Fegisiered, 116% 4117; do. do., do,, coupon, 117 a ‘118; do, five-twenties, registered, May and Novem- Der, 113% @ 114; do, do. 1802, coupon, do., 113}4 & 114; do. do. 1864, d0., do., 115; do. do, 1865, do., o., 11534; do., 1867, registered, January and July, 115% @ 115%; do, do. 1865, coupon, do., 115% @ 116%; do, do, 1867, do., do., 116% & 116%; do. do. » A 116% @ 117; do, ten-forties, registered, } @0. do., coupon, 112%; fives of 1883, coupon, 112% & 112%.

A smart and not unhealthy rally to-day followed the decline that has been observable in the stock market since the beginning of the week, and busi- ness was remarkably well distributed. The shares ' that have been most stoutly held seemed to have moved easiest upward, showing that, whenever the weight is taken off, there is a buoyancy in some of the stocks at least, Whether thisis due to in- herent strength or the manipulations of those inside THE SANCTUS SANCTORUM anxious to make a temporary market to sell on is @ question yet to be determined. It may be confl- dently accepted as a fact, however, that the mar. ket is by no means settled, The present condition of affairs has offered temptations innumerable to those most identified with leading stocks to form combinations, and the prospect is that the nuclei of future work has only begun to be shadowed forth, If there be no mofe defalcations, no more SUSPENSIONS OF TRUST COMPANIES, no more railroads unable to meet their promises to pay, no more millionaires dragged into the street in connection with bad credits and worse paper, we shall, undoubtedly, have a tall and winter market full of mterest to all concerned; but if, on the other hand, small commercial bubbles continue to burst, and that emergency which a few have been bold enough to predict, present, even its edge and outline, just so sure will money—always sensitive to the slightest cause—retain its strin- Bency, suspicion grow into belief and values tumble in proportion to engendered doubts. We prefer to contemplate THE BRIGHTER SIDE OF THE PICTURE. It is unsafe, however, to predict anything, and without the circle of those who have the ability to control the movement of less than a half dozen stocks, we doubt if there isa man on the street who, however honest may be nis purposes, can any more forecast the future than catch on canvas the varying shades ofa rainbow. Men say that it has been years since such a peculiar condition of affairs existed, and, this being true, itis not difficult to explain the hesitation with which outside capital lingers on the threshold of the street, tempted by its opportunities, yet held in leash by its hidden dangers, THE ACTIVITY OF THE MARKET to-day is illustrated by dealings in 158,426 shares, distribused as follows:—Western Union, 45,205; Pacific Mail, 41,456; Lake Shore, 14,035; Erie, 5,950; Rock Island, 3,100; Northwest, 4,350; St. Paul, 3,200; New York Central, 8,000; Ohio & Mississippi, 9,600; Wabash, 9,900; Union Pacific, 8,900; The following range of prices speak {or themselves, because they show a range of prices of % to1% per cent, though somewhat modified at times by reaction, details of which may be observed in the sales lists which follow. Western Onion opened at 8934, advancea to 89%, retired to 89% andclosed at 90% ; Pacific Mail opened at 4234, touched 43%, during the first call, when a reaction occurred, after which the price was carried to 4434; New York Central ranged between 103% a 103% a 10434, closing at the latter figure; Erie started at 59, advanced 4 & % a % and closed at 593; Rock Island moved up from 106% to 107 a 107% a 107%, closing at 107%; Lake Shore sold at 91x 091% a 91% a 9154 2 91% 292, closing at 91% @ 92; Union Pacific sold at 24% a 25 @ MX O 2% a 25% @ 25; St. Panl opened and closed at 46%, the mghest price of the day being 47%. Ohio and Mississippi was comparatively steady at 87% & 87% & 87% & 88.38% 9 38% 2 38%. Wabash opened at 63%, sold down to61%, recovered through the fractions of 62, sold again at 633¢ and closed at 63. Northwest common was more than usually active, selling from 61 down to 5914, but rallying strongly to 614, with a close at 60% ; Northwestern preferred, 7834 @ 783%. Harlem sold at 129, Panama St 116 a 116%, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western at 984, a 98% a 99, C. C. and I. C. at 20%, Hannibal and St, Joseph at 33% a 334 a 33%. Canton closed at st.

Important Sales of Suburban Property— Long Branch Specula' and, the Character of the Investment Demand in Westchester County, ‘The real estate market continues to present the same duiness in respect to transactions in city property, previously noticed as likely to last for some weeks yet, until a show of hands, as between bulls and bears, will determine the inclination of dealings, In the meantime some few sales are an- nounced for to-day and the early days of next week that, in their relation to the future, seem to deserve more than a mere passing notice. First of these may be noticed the offer to-day of forty- eight building plots, eacn containing three to four city lots, at Long Branch, in the neighborhood of the Weat End Hotel. The season might be consid- ered as rather unfavorable for the sale of this de- scription of property, but the object may be to afford an opportunity for pasar between now and next summer.
