on 5 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL RUMOR-MONGERS AT WORK Concerning a Leader in Stocks and His Death. HOW PRICES ARE MADE Porgers of Fabrications---The Stock Exchange Committee on Their Track. (MONEY HARDER TO OBTAIN Gold Firmer—The Influence of Cuban News. OTHER SECURITIES STRONG. WALL STREET, Fripay, Nov. 14—6 P. ‘M. ‘The rumor-mongers to-day attempted to make -something out of the death of Commodore Van- Gerbilt, but failed, There was scarcely 4 prom- dnent banker or broker who did not receive a de- ~@patch which read as follows :— New Yore Horst. Father dead, Come svon. See Turnbull and x W. H. Y. Father dead. Do sometbing forme, CC, V., Jr. Father dead. William and George, come BPs Father dead. Don’t communicate to siredt. Father dead. Do the best you can fan me. Father dead. Come to Washington Places’ These despatches reached the street when «stocks were in the balance. Similar despatches -came trom Saratoga last year. In both instances ~they arrived at an hour and a time when sharp reaction was sure to follow a denial of the report, and toe “bull” side of the market was sure to gain from the final result. The experience of last year was repeated to-day. THE MARKET had dropped of its own dead weight. There was omothing to uphold it. Something was necessary wo create an upward movement. It was found in the ingenious invention of “a stranger,” who, going to the various telegraph oMces and report- ing the above sad fact, obeyed his instructions to send the foregoing bogus despatches, knowing that in less than an hour afterwards the -refatation would produce a reaction. The lesson involved is significant, Here are a body of gentle- -men called the Stock Exchange ot America. They represent in their yearly transactions hundreds of millions of wealth. England and the Continent aro ‘watching our every action by telegraph, making prices there to correspond with quotations here and basing judgment upon the good sense that may be manifested in our daily work. Yet we are yielding to a species of individuality—a “CAESARISM IN FINANCE,’? that has held the nursing bottle while the public have sucked. In short, the life or death of an old man whose life hangs by a thread has become an object of speculation, and long before his obituary notice 1s inscribed fortuoes will have changed hands on the event, and perhaps an entirely new phase be given to speculation. This is Wail street. tis but just to say that the Executive Committee » IT. ~Of the Stock Exchange have taken prompt steps, through their detectives, to ascertain who sent out these reports, to arrest the forger, and they will probably make an example of the criminal. THE DEPRESSING EFFECT upon the market was but temporary, the fraud and its purpose having been quickly discovered. Prices to-morrow, therefore, are likely to continue their normal course. Itisonly necessary to add con- cerning the condition of stocks that they are only speculatively strong; answer oply to tempo- fary influences; are not attractive to permanent investors; inherently do not correspond with the reat of the situation, and are liable to @ sudden break whenever any event 0c- curs that shakes the confidence of the holder. While real values are contracting, it 4s contrary to a law of trade and nature that Actitious values shall augment. Yet this is what is going on in the stock market, in the face of a de- cline in trade, freight, travel, produce, wayside lands and every other species of property that at- taches to a railroad, There is no use in deceiving the public simply to bolster the interests of two orthree hundred. men on Wall street, anxious to make or lose a percentage on stock speculations. Our great interests move together, and the strength of one is the wealth of the other. THE MONEY MARKET to-day was stronger than recently quoted. It was active until the close at7 per cent currency and gold, and not unfrequently with interest at 1-32 on callloans, The tendency was decidedly hardening. Foreign exchange closed up heavy at 10634 for prime bankers’ 60 days sterling and 108}, for sight. Commercial bills sold at 105% to 105%, ‘The banks show a gain of $635,000 in greenbacks. The case of G. B. Grinnell was up befo re Register Allen this morning, who decided that unsecured creditors only were entitled to vote for assignee, The secured creditors entered a protest, The un- secured creditors voted to postpone the election of assignee until December 5. ‘The following are the Continental rates of dis- ad vices :— count as per latest mail ee THE GOLD MARKET ‘was more than usually active, prices apparently being influenced by the probabilities attached to the Cuban trouble. It was agreed on all hands that {ft our government be firm in its demands and insists upon its rights in the right way there is a chance for war, and war would produce inflation and inflation would make gold a purchase. The sadvance in the Board to-day, however, was some- “what influenced by the purchases of those who ‘were short of gold and found it necessary to cover at the higher rates. We quote the following as the fluctuations at different periods :— 12M. 12:18 P. M... 12:30 P, ‘The rates paid for carrying to-day were 7, 1-32, +5, @nd finally 7 per cent. Loans were also made nat.

The customs receipts were $2,890,000. The inter- nal revenue receipts were $265,943, mrorts, The imports of dry goods for the week were $1,319,443, and the amount marketed, $1,022,014, GOVERNMENT BONDS closed strong and in good demand.

German-American sold at 85; New York, 112; Phenix, 87; American Exchange, 100; Park, 120; Fourth National, 86, and Ninth National, 90 The latest bids were as follows:—Manhattan, 135; Merchants’, 100; Union, 125; America, 136; City, 250; North River, 78; Fulton, 125; Leather Manu- facturers’, 150; State of New York, 96; Commerce, 111; American Exchange, 100; Market, 110; Corn Exchange, 110; Importers and Traders’, 162; Fourth National, 86; Ninth National, 91. THE STOCK MARKET to-day was active, and large transactions were made in the lines of Western Union, Lake Shore, New York Central and Rock Island. Pacific Mail also, more than usual, came in for ashare of atten- tion. The condition was more orless affected by Cuban complications, which were freely discussed, but at the close the main influence was produced by the announcement of the death of Commodore Vanderbilt. Allusion has been made to this event, but it may be here stated that the immediate effect upon the market was @ decline of from 1to3per cent, with a sub- sequent recovery, the market, however, not being left quite as strong as before. As regards the probabilities of a war with Spain, {t is safe to predict from a financial point of view that nothing is likely to occur which need affect the price of stocks until after the meeting of Congress. It is evident that Secretary Fish intends to settle this business according to legal proprieties, and no complications will occur until then—all telegraphic and sensational reports to the contrary notwithstanding. The extremes of the day will be noted in the following abridgment of prices, and the details will be found in the quo- tations elsewhere. HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES.

The state of trade showed a further improvement to-day, but it was owing mainly to the further advance in the goid premium, though there was @n increased demand for merchandise in some quarters .and 4 corresponding recovery in prices. The export movement in grain was accelerated by the enhancement of gold and foreign exchange, and the market was conse- quently firmer, with a fair business at improved prices, Flour was in good demand and higher. Wheat, corn and oats were all active and decidedly higher. In wheat there was some little specula- tive feeling, and some choice grades, it was understood, were sold for speculation, There was also some inquiry and busi- ness for future delivery. Whiskey was shade dearer and fairly active. Lard was firmer, with a pretty tree movement at the Improvement. Frelhts were strong. Groceries were generally quiet and un- changed, excepting for sugar, which showed a moderate advance. Fetrolem remained quiet and unchanged.
