~ PINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL A BRIGHTER OUTLOOK. Settlements by Various Firms and Corporations. BUSINESS BEING RESUMED. Sharp Speculation in the Stock Market--- Loss and Recovery. ARE WE AT HARD PAN? Railroad Bonds, Money and Govern- ment Securities. WALL SrReet, } Fripay, Oct. 24—6 P. M. ‘The market to-day is somewhat interesting, inas- much as it discloses a series of facts: First—The Union Trust Company have reached a settlement ‘with the Lake Shore Company, in which Commo- dore Vanderbilt, as its oficial representative, agrees to make a settlement for the $1,750,000 involved, in notes of three, six and nine months, with Harlem at 90 as a collateral, These notes, if necessary will be strongly endorsed, The Lake Shore Company will eventually pay the amount, Such at least is the statement. The second point of interest is that Mr. Drew has so arranged his Affairs as that they will be kept out of court, and the various parties concerned in his unsettled ac- counts will be satisfied with THE ADJUSTMENT determined upon. A third point, and not so fat- tering in its various aspects, is the attitude of the New Jersey Southern Raliroad, which, if it be not on the eve of bankruptcy, is in such a condition as to evoke much legitimate ‘criticism, Meetings are now daily taking piace which have for their object a permanent arrange- ment of the affairs of the company on a new basis, Another important feature of the situation is the doubt enwrapped about the Union Trust Company. So many prominent speculators have had to do with it; so much of its funds have been misused; 80 many names are identified with what courts of daw, in their dull, dry way, would call defalcations; 0 much of honorable FINANCIAL HUMANITY fhas proved vicious; so much pure old-fashioned aleviltry of the original Adam school has manifested itself; so much fair, square, honest out- and-out swindling has been announced on the part of its leading customers as to make i¢ almost certain that the Union ‘Trust Company will have little more to show than @ considerable amount of figurative cash for de- Dositors’ accounts, The press of the city have done all that could have been done honorably to Maintain the institution in the midst of panic, be- cause they believed it worthy; but when they found one of its officers working out defal- cation on a new algebraical rule; when they found much more distinguished men who linger around the clubs and horse pools proving them- selves unworthy of their trust, it was but naturai that attention should be invited to the condition ofthe concern and doubt be expressed as to its ability to meet HONEST ORLIGATIONS. We hope, however, that the Union Trust Com- pany, however much its respective attachés of the past may be given to speculation, will enter upon a fresh career. There 1s always a public pleasure in hearing’a fine sounding name perpetuaied, and we are not 80 sure that now and then a depositor will not be found who will not glory in being set apart and labelled, “Scientifically swindled.” Another feature of the situation worth mention- ing is that Mr. Daniel Drew has so adjusted lis aflairs that three-fourths of his sufferers are will- ing to come within the purview of the arrangement Suggested by his brokers, and to rest on the possi- bilities of an “EVANGELICAL” FUTURE. There is henceforth a twinship in religion and resiliency—a buoyancy to both. As a part of the really good news of the day it may be mentioned that Fisk & Hatch will resume business during the ensuing week. There are tew items of news which can be mentioned to the financial community that will afford such universal satisfaction or will be more generally accepted as a reverberatory key note to the situation. It is but natural that such a substratum of facts following so close on the falsehoods with which the street for speculative purposes has recently had to contend, should have given buoyancy to the market, while prices in the early part of the day ‘were unsettled and largely declined, say from 44 to 6% per cent, they rallied as soon as the fore- going tacts became definitely known, and maintained a steady strength until the close of the market. The greatest de- cline of the day was in Lake Shore, which dropped from 65 to 61. Other stocks obeyed slight docal influences, which, because of their vascillat- ing character, cannot be successfully described. Western Union opened at 56g, fell off to 544, and closed at 57. New York Central sold at 89 a 88 a 8944; Rock Island at 91 a 90 a 91%, Wabash at 4034 @ 30%, a 405 a 89a41, Northwest at 36a 354 a8 36%, St. Paul at 28a 274; 829, Pacific Mail at 31a 303¢ a 325, Union Pacific at 17% a 1634 a 175%, Har- Jem at 10544 a 107%, Pittsburg at 75 a 76, and Dela- ‘ware, Lackawana and Western at 86 a 86}. THE MONEY MARKET. Money loaned at7 per cent to 1-32 0n govern- ment and stock collaterals, Foreign exchange was dull for long sterling and firmer for short sight. The closing quotations were 106% @ 1063, for batikers’ 60 days’ sterling and 108 for sight. The various banks are said to be meeting their Uabilities promptly and well, and the situation is full of prospective health. The statement is made by telegraph that Secretary Richardson has de- cided upon avery important financial step. The | price of gold has iallen so low that he feeis justified of placing currency on a silver basis, and he was determined to begin next week paying out silver the same as greenbacks, aud will, when desired, | pay off bills against the government in silver and exchange silver for currency, or vice versa, In- structions will be issucd to the Treasurer and to the Assistant Treasurers in the several cities to pay out silver the same as currency. The Treasurer is now having silver coined at the several mints | a8 fast as possible, and will, it is thought, be able to supply all demands that may be made for silver. GoLD ‘was inactive at 108); a 1083{. and closed at 10844 a 10855. The rates paid for carrying to-day were 3, 2, 1, 4, 5 and 6 per cent, and for borrowing fat, 1-64 and 2 percent. The final rate was 6 per cent for carry- ing.

The importations this week consist of 1,153 bales of Bavarians and 168 pockets of English, which, reduced to the weight of American bales, and added the domestic arrivals, brings the total. receipts for the week up to hearly 3500 bales. ‘This is a little more than our market can bear. with the present limited demand trom consumers. A new feature, and one worthy of the serious consideration of American gone is the fact that large orders are going abroad for javarian hops, trom brewers direct, Many of our heavy lager brewers h: their friends or correspondents in Germany, from whom they can order hops at as low prices, and on as favorable terms as our regular hoj merchants or importers. Finding they can buy no goo hops in (he interior below Svc. ihey are now turnin their attention to the toreign article, the best of whic has not yet cost over 4c. laid down here duty free. ‘he total importation of 2,447 bales against 731 bales for the corresponding season Of last year, is indicative of large supplies in Europe, and as very ew ot these arrivais are trom bona side orders from thisside it may serve as a criterion of What we may expect irom abroad if prices here are maintained.

A Montague and Capulet Case for the Street. Failure of Hoyt, Sprague & Co. Reported. THEY DENY THE SOFT IMPEACHMENT, The Sprague-Anthony Rivalry Again Demonstrated. EARLY RESUMPTION OF FISK & HATCH, Some Pertinent Suggestions ta Railroad Directors. The only excitement yesterday was the an- nounced failure of Hoyt, Sprague & Oo. Inquiry de- veloped the fact that this concern had gone inte temporary liquidation, while the word “/atlure'® was carefully avoided. It is worth while to mention the fact that “SPRAGUE” IN THIS CASE means Senator Sprague, of Rhode Island, between whom and Anthony, the Montague to shakes- peare’s Capulet, there is the traditional stage quarrel, Whether they are prepared to kill one another is a matter for a future coroner's jury to decide, and only as it affects the manufacturing interests of New England are we affected in this column. In a purely newspaper sense it is a pity they wouldn’t kill one another, for neither has shown any reason why he should live. But let this rest. We have not to deal with dead men, but living heroes, If a man offers him- self on a trapeze every night and dies that is not our business. We catch him just before he gives the lass gasp. What matters it? What's the price of Central? What's Erie worth? are the inquiries we hear on either side, but nintz donum, are the references that come to the newspaper man to satisfy him for his labor of inquiry, But Hoyt, Sprague & Co. are not dead, nor struggling. They announce themselves as perfectiy safe and willing to meet all their liar bilities, ‘These rumors bring up A NEW THOUGHT in connection with Mr. Williams, of the Metropolle tan Bank, The representation of distress of Rhode Island which Mr. Anthony vicariously made to President Grant, the State being popularly sup- posed to belong to Sprague and Anthony, hada significance not generally appreciated, and, in its reception, showed thatif Grant is not a Talleyrand, @ Napoleon le petit or @ Palmerston, he has at least “horse sense”, enough not to give himself away to any clique in Wali street, for their imme- diate profit without benefit to the country, The Trustees of the Union Trust Company to-day decided to accept Commodore Vanderbilt's propo- sition, as follows :— Notes of the Lake Shore Railroad Company, signed by the Commodore as the President of the Lake Shore Railroad Company, at three, six and nine months, with private securities as collaterals. Aiter this acceptance the Union Trust Company re- ceived a proposition to discount these notes and reported the same. The receiver will ask permis- sion of the courts to accept these discounts, WHICH 18 WHY I REMARK. In regard to the $2,200,000 Lake Shore bonds, hypothecated with George B. Grinnell and Co., about which so much has been said, it is only justice to state that that firm came into possession of these bonds im a regular and straightforward way. ‘The transfer of the bonds was on the direct authority of the treasurer.of the Trust Caer, with the regular countersign of other officers, This disposes of one great véte noire, so far as Grinneli and Co. are concerned, AND HE PLAYED THAT DAY UPON WILLIAM AND ME IN A WAY I DESPISE. The transfer of property trom James H. Banker aud his wife to Commodore Vanderbilt was muck discussed qenigrdays It appears the Commodore een lends his securities to his sons-in-law and friends, when they are in trouble. It was ra- mored that this transfer was to secure some loans to Banker during the panic. ‘DANIRL DREW. At a mecting of the creditors of Kenyon, Cox & Co., at which seven-tenths of the creditors were represented, Messrs, Kenyon, Cox & Co. made a proposition Of Settlement which was accepted by all present. FISK AND HATCH. Messrs. Fisk & Hatch, having been reported ag resuming business this afternoon, explained that they had made satisfactory arrangements with the banks who are their principal creditors, whereby they hope to resume in afew days, There was quite a sentiment of enthusiasm developed on the street when it was announced this house would shortly resume; and if the same means of giving expression to gratulatory sense as prevails in the political world were at hand we might have had 100 guns fired off ia front of Trinity church, No concern has 80 wound itself around the affections of the street as Fisk & Hatch’s; none has com- manded higher respect, ater confidence, its late embarrassment fuller sympathy. To the regular Wail street chronicler the aan ol this house was a positive loss; information could not be soughy from those who had temporarily retired from the market, but with its restoration to its piace and position active brains with intelligent understanding come to contribute their share again to tne world’s financial knowledge, this connection, albeit WITH DUE RESPECT to this concern, who may not appreciate our mis- sion—but facts are facts, and the great public look to the HERALD not only for fuil information, but for support—we have to draw attention to thie relation. On the Ist of November there will be due coupons of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad, interest on $15,000,000, amounting to $450,000, The company is without the means of delray- ing this charge. The directors are Messrs. A. A. Low, William H, Aspinwall, David Stewart, Cc. P. Huntington, William Whitewright and Jonas G. Clarke. The names of these gentlemen gave circulation to the bonds of this road, now largely held by poor investors, and no default can ocour in the payment of the accruing interest without hurt to these gentlemen’s individual credit. Let us have an end of this bogus railroad bosons, men oa and Jet it be understood that when their names, as directors, to @ new Toad enterprise they do 80 intelligently, understandingly and willingly, and, if di ir come, that they will not wait for the courts to fix the amount of their responsibility.
