FINANCIAL AND COWMEREIAL A Dull Day in Wall Street. Prices Generally Lower and the Mag- nates Waiting on the Future. ARs ala ae THE VIEWS OF SECRETARY RICHARDSON, Money Easy and Gold About Steady. A NEW FOREIGN VALUATION. A Handsome Gain in Our Exports. Wau. Srrzsr, } TURSDAY, Dee, 23—6 P. A. ‘The markets to-day justified the prognostications made concerning them at the time of the adjourn- ment of Congress, A condition of alternate strength and weakness has been developed, and there is little disposition on the part o! speculators to engage in new ventures until something more ig known than at present concerning the intentions of our legislators, The commercial situation is hhkewise somewhat shronded in doubts, waich pro- voke anxiety, and until these are dispelled men eannot fairly measure financial strength and proba- Dilities, The time may be near at hand when ‘things will be guaged by real values, and not by Boap bubbles; when some of the cheaper priced securities will come to tne front and the higher priced securities will go to the wall, Atany rate the “street” is evidently awaiting a fixed condi- ‘tion of affairs, premises on which to base its future work, THE STOCK MARKET ‘was essentially uninteresting and the volume of ‘business small. The weakness was principally ex- perienced in the early dealings, when the decline Measured from % to % percent. Subsequently there was an improvement of from % to1% per ent. Western Union led the market, but was closely followed by Union Pacific, Wabash, Pacific ‘Mail, Lake Shore and New York Central. The close ‘Was generally quiet. Western Union opened at ‘71%, improved to 723, but stood at the close at 71%. Olmos sold at 29% a 29; Pacific Mail at 36% a SBT a 365 a 37% a 87% a 87 a 3634; Rock Island at 81% 29789734; New York Central at 955; a 95% a 96% a 9534; Lake Shore at 743¢ a 74% @ 7444 & 74% & % & 74%; Union Pacific at 30% a 29% @ 2% a 30% @ 30; Wabash at 48% a 40% 2 48%; St. Paul at 40 a 39% a 30% a 39%. Northwestern opened at 54%, sold up to 545, down ‘20 53%, and closed at 4%. AJton and Terre Haute common was strong at 14% 215%. The preferred ‘stock advanced to 34%, a sharp and suggestive im- provement within afew days. A dividend on this stock is confidently promised in May. C., C. andl. ©.

THE MONEY MARKET. Money was casy during the Greater part of the @ay, the small transactions of the stock market @imiting the demand, and the rates closed at 4 and S percent. Gilt edged paper was discounted at from & to 10 per cent, with exceptional and super- ne as low as7 percent. Greater caution than ‘msual, however, is being observed in scrutinizing ‘©ommercial paper, in consequence of the many Fumors of, and the actual failures that have taken Place. The loan certificates uncancelled now Bmount to $3,335,000. Foreign exchange closed ‘weak and actual business was at 10844 a 108% for prime bankers’ 60 days sterling, 109 a 1093; for @emand. The demand from bankers has fallen off, ‘and there is very little inquiry from tne trade. $500,000 of bonds of 1858 were exchanged at the ‘Treasury to-day for new fives. THE UNITED STATES TREASURY. ‘The internal revenue receipts were $182,907. The feceipts trom customs were $245,000, The balances 4n the United States Treasury at the close of busi- ‘mess to-day were as follows:—Currency, $840,338 ; @pecial deposits of legal tenders for the redemp- tion of certificates of deposit, $32,985,000; coin, $87,115,320; including coin certificates, $31,475,900; @utstanding legal tenders, $376,234,962, The As- @istant Treasurer paid out to-day $38,000 on ac- count of interest and $26,000 in redemption of five-twenty bonds. A despatch from Washington states that it is now quite certain that if the esti- muates are reduced as proposed and other contem- Plated reductions in the government expenses are made, the increased taxation will not be neces- @ary. Secretary Richardson favors the abolition of ‘the Sinking Fund for one year, or until the rev- @nues increase. This would give about $30,000,000 %o the Treasary, which, together with the reduc- ‘Bions in the estimates, will be money enough for ‘the Treasury without resorting to increased taxa- gion. THB NEW VALUATION. In accordance with the act of € agress approved ‘March 3, 1873, the Secretary of the Treasury will, on January 1, issue a circular exhibiting the values, ‘an United States money, of the various coinages of ‘the world. Among the important changes are the ollowing:—The value of the English pound ster- Ming is increased from $4 84 to $4.86 and one-half mull. French francs are increased from eighteen ‘Cents six mills to nineteen cents three mills. All @oods taken ont of bond on and after January 1 ‘Will be subject to valuation at the increased rates. ‘The Treasury officials anticipate an increase of bout 4 per cent in custom revenues trom the Changes in value which have been made, THE FOREIGN MARKET. able advices are unimportant. The following @re the jate London quotations:—Consols for ‘maoney, 91% a 92; consom ior account, 92 a 92% ; Give-twenty bonds of 1965, old, 94; five-twenty Donde of 1867, 94% a 94%; ten-forty bonds, 92a 9244) new fives, 913; a 913;; Erie Railway shares, 3045 & 36%; New York Central shares, 78% a 79. American securities are easier, The amount of ‘ullion which went into the Bank ef England on Dalance to-day is £31,000. In Frankfort United ‘States fve-cwenty bonds were 973, for the issue of 1862, The following are the quotations in Amster- d@am:—Central Pacific first mortgage bonds, 8014; ‘Onion Pacific frat mortgage bonds, 71}; Union Pa- @ific stock, 26%; Northwestern preierred, THE GOLD MARKET. “Gora opened at 110% and declined to 109%, Wu: Wecovered to 110% and closed at 110% @ 110%. 1) ‘Market was devoid of feature.

The ets generally re- mained without decided change, however, there being no manifest disposition to press goods on the market.
