INANCTAL AND COMMERCIAL ‘The Paramount Question of the Hour. ‘SHALL WE HAVE INFLATION? The Beal Duty of Congress—To Provide for the Redemption of Legal Tenders and Give the People Free Banking. EVENTS OF THE WEEK. Grangers on the Warpath—Railroad Earnings in the West. MONEY, GOLD AND STOCKS. WALL STREET, Sunpay, Feb, 15, sara. The paramount question of the hour is whether the country shall be forced by Congress to accept the addition of $44,000,000, more or less, to the ‘volume of currency already legalized outside of this reserve, If so, it means eventual disaster; Decause, first, we do not heed inflation; second, 1t will unsettle commercial faith. If Congress can degislate into existence $44,000,000, 1t can, with sequal propriety, issue any other sum whicn che people, through their representatives, may elect; and while this possibility exists trade will always Test on an uncertain basis und enterprise be held in check, Ifthe government had been true to its obligations tbe circumstances would be different, but with an INCONVERTIBLE AND DEPRECIATED MONEY ‘todeal with there is nothing in the immediate ‘Tuture that affords hope to the business man or a Teal basis on which he may conduct hfs operations. A mere statute adds nothing to the value of a paper currency, except that it compels people to take as money what 18 not money. The issue of legal tenders was a specific contract with the people. The latter were forced to accept lt as a war measure, and in their patriotism did so cheerfully; but now that years ‘have elapsed since the necessities of war com- pelled this sacrifice of a great financial principle, they have a right to expect that the government will not only redeem its pledges of the past, but refuse to add one dollar to the amount to which ‘that issue was contracted, to wit—$356,000,000, Remove uncertainty on this point and we shall ENCOURAGE ENTERPRISE ‘and Industry. We shall keep specie at home and find a use forit, We shall accumulate that which Makes England and France conspicuous in the world of finance, We shall add to the value of our bonds, acquire @ more tangible and fixed value for our productions, do much to settle the vexed question of labor and its wages, and rents, and eventually attain a credit nationally and inter- nationaliy based on the most reliable and the only weal measure of value recognized by the world. But before we can reach specie payment the government must first pay what it owes to the People on demand. When it begins to do so the legal tender note will begin to appreciate in value and gold to depreciate proportionately. EVERY PAPER DOLLAB thus redeemed makes every other paper awaiting redemption more valuable. It is not a process of contraction but of substitution. Mr. Dawes, in his admirable speech the other day, showed that the Treasury, since 1869, had spent, in a vain at- tempt to pay off the national debt, $377,000,000, if in four years such an amount can be accumu- lated—and it can—tor such a purpose, in the name Ofall'that is honorable and honest, let a similar amount during the next fouryears be appropriated to the payment of the most sacred debt that can €xiat between a government and its constituency, We want little more legislation on the subject of finance than this and the extension of the privi- lege Of tree banking. The result of THE FIRST STEP ‘will be to put our paper on a gold basis; for, in the alsence of legal tenders, the banks must of necessity redeem in gold. The result of the sec- ond step will be to distribute money freely. It will Mow where itis most wanted. It cannot be legislated into sparsely settted communities, as the attempt is now being made in the Senate, but | it will grow and gravitate wherever the wants of | @ neighborhood make its use desirable or valuable, THE EVENTS OF THE WEEK may be briefly described. In Congress the inflationists, on Monday, met would seem to be & most signal defeat in the House of Representatives, which by many lias been considered to be their stronghold. Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, moved to suspend the rules and adopt a resolution to the effect that if any increase of “currency” was authorized by Congress such increase ought to be in “legal tenders.’ The motion was voted down by 95 nays to 69 yeas. This vote is all the more significant from the fact that the resolution of Mr. Randall and the one offered by Mr. Hawiey and adopted some time ago—that “there should be no increase | of the non-interest bearing notes of the govern- | that have | ment’—are the only resolutions squarely brought the question before the House of the issue of legal tenders, as distinguished from a further issue of mere “cur- rency,” or, in other words, bank notes. We con- gratulate the country upon this symptom of com- mon sense, and hope thatit will be likewise ex- hibited when the subject comes up for final dispo- @ition, The question of REDISTRIBUTION 48 also occupying the attention of the Senate, and she East is arrayed against the West and South on the point whether currency shall be withdrawn from the former section for the benefit of the lat. ter, It is a matter of little moment, except as illustrating the imbecility of legislation in en- deavoring to interfere with the natural laws of trade. Money will go wherever it is most profit- -able. Send it South or West to-day and it wili return to the great commercial centres, immedi- ately. There is no use for it in the South and ,West. Reports from the banks there indicate as much ease in the market, proportionate to the population, as exists here. The surplus will follow the speculative channel, wherever, in other words, it can be loaned on call and on securities such as constitute the basis of our Wail street speculative work. This ts one reason why our banks are overflowing to-day and why a demand for currency brings over the counter more bills from the South and West than from the East, It is not money but business which the country wants, If trade were active smoney would not be loaning at 4 per cent, and it ts a bad commercial sign tnat it does so loan, THE GRANGER INFLUENCE on the Western railroads is evidently beginning to assert itself, Legislation cannot be shaped as con- ‘veniently as it used to be. A sharp resistance to the payment of taxes is being forced, which taxes {f pressed for payment will entail bankruptcy, The Illinois Southeastern Company has already suc- cumbed, Ohio and Mississippi is assessed at seven percent on the gross earnings, and it js said by very high Western authorities that if the courts compel payment on the equalized rates of assess- ment in lilinois six-tenths of the roads in that State wil cease running cars, Many of them can- ‘NOt borrow enough to pay interest, While . THE GROSS EARNINGS of twenty-four railroads whose earnings are pub- Aished for January, 1874, show an increase over January, 1873, of $1,273,817. it should be remem- bered that the month of January, 1873, was one peculiarly. unfortunate to railroads owing to the enow biockades which prevailed. January of 1974 bas been unusually free from such obstruc. tions, so that it not unlikely that a comparison with January, 1872 (taking into the account the ancrease of length of road), will exhibit the figures @resented 10 a lesa favogable light.

Time loans were made at 424% per cent for 30 days, 5 per cent for 60 days and 6 a 53 per cent for 90 days. For prime business paper the discount market was easy at 687 per cent, GULD was firm, and there are indications of the pres- ence of 4 clique who are evidently basing their calculations on the indecision of Congress and the belief that that body will legalize the issue of the entire reserve. Should this take place the operators reason, apd not without a basis, that gold will advance sharply. The range of the week was 111% 2 112%. ‘The closing price was 112%. THE FOREIGN MARKET. Contrary to well expressed expectation on this side of the water the Bank of England has not advanced ifs rate of discount, which stands as heretofore, ut 314 per cent. As far as may be judged jrum present indications the course o1 the money market is tending to greater firmness in the immeatate future, The outflow of gold has been principally in the direction of the Continent and the outflow of silver in the direction of India. The general election has doubtless also entianced the absorption of coin by the Provinces, so that the decline in the balances that may have been reported during the week is reasonably accounted for. We note that nearly £800,000 of bar silver has recently been withdrawn from Germany for shipment to the East. English money writers comment favorably upon the in- creasing pubjic credit of Russia. While our own country may not be directly affected by the fact that the average advance of Russian securities auring the year 1873 on a line of eleven stocks was very nearly three per cent, itis still significant of an improvement tn the system of national credits, of which the United States is necessarily a partici- pant, The growth of any subordinate nation means a corresponding growth for us. We observe, also, with reference to LOUISIANA BONDS, that the Council of Foreign Bondholders have re- ceived the following letter from the Committee of the Bourse at Amsterdam, dated the 28th ult, :— We beg to hand you underneath copy of a letter sent to-day by us to the Governor and tothe Sn- preme Court of the State of Louisiana :—‘Consid- ering the lact that there are in the Netherlands a eat number of bona Jide holders of Louisiana State stocks, we join our protest to that of the Council of Foreign Bondholders in London against the reduction Of the capital and the interest of the Louisiana stocks, and we pledge ourselves to co- operate with the said Council in every measure to be taken in the matter.’’ Last Sunday we quoted similar action, although Jess forcibly phrased, on the part of tne foreign bondholders of North Carolina, The funding, scaling of debt or any other species of homeopathic species of repudiation 18 evidentiy not popular with our foreign cousins.

The demand for merchan- dise was & little more active, but still the spring Season was not characterized by any general movoment. The continual squabbling in Congress over “inflation” or “contraction,” with all the indications favoring the former policy, have tended to stimulate speculative ventures in some directions, but speculators, nevertheless, generally | actual adoption in the inflation policy, 80 urgently advocated by some of the leading party spirits in Congress, who care as little as they know about either the requirements of the country or the laws ‘which govern commerce and trade. The gold pre- mium was maintained at a high figure, but the fluctuations were immaterial and without especial influence in trade circles, The pusiness in hardware was active all through the week, and in this depart: ment the spring trade may be considered as under full headway, In the dry goods department only a fair ‘The export movement in breadstulls was moderate, the character, and causing @ reduction ot limits rather more rapidly than holders were willing to conform to.
