FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL Failure of the Parent Freedman’s Bank in Washington - GOLD ADVANCED TO 113 1-8, oe The Stock Market Strong and Operators | Unexpectedly Encouraged. St RISE IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE P=: WALL SPREET, MONDAY, April 27—6 P. M. One of the most important financial events of the day is the announcement of the failure of the Freedman’s Savings Bank of Washington; for it vencerns not merely the comparatively lew depos- itors in the District of Columbia, but the great hest of colored people who in almost every South- ern city have deen taught to place as much confi- dence in the subsidiary treedmen’s banking instl- tutions as they reposed in the emancipation pledges of Abrabam Lincoln. Faith is essentially @ part of the negro churacter, but when it ts weak. ened by such evidences of mismanagement as are to-day reported we may reasonably anticipate more or less of tinanciai and political demoraliza- top as the response of all communities wherein branches of this establishment exist. The effect ‘on New York is trifing, but the influence on the country at large, when the Jact thoroughly pene- trates the rude and uneducated minds of the poor depositors, who have risked the next best element of freedom—money—that they, too, have been swindied by their so-called “best friends,” will undoubtedly manifest itself in the future social and political changes of the country. It isa bad sign when the “wards of the nation” are drawn into the macistrom of ruin. THE MONEY MARKET. ‘The close of mouey at loan on call was 3and4 percent. Discount rates are unchanged. Foreign exchange advanced from 4.8634 to 4.88 for sixty days sterling, and trom 4.894; to 4.91 for demand, | a the actual business vetng done on a slightly lower basis, The demands trom bankers for remittances to cover the collections of May interest is brisk, and shipping rates may soon become a definite reality. Comumercia! bills continue scarce and are only ob- tainabie in smail amounts. Contineutal exchange was firm; Reichmarks, 95% @ 957% lor bankers’ long and 96‘; a 96%, for short; prime Paris francs, bankers’, 5.1734 for long and 5.1234 for short. THE GOLD MARKET. Considerable excitement was shown in this de- partment of the market to-day by reason of foreign advices which reported a loss of bullion by the Bank of England and increased activity of money; also by reason of the advance in foreign ex- ehapge, whichis now quite up to tue shipping point. The opening price was at 1123;, from which there was a decline to 112};, attended by a later advance to 113); and @ close at that figure. The carrying rates were 4, 3, 334, 2, 1, and linally 3 per cent. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank to-day were as lollows:— God balances. CLEARING HOUSE STATEMENT.

The opening to-day was caim and until noon without promise of materia: change; but after ‘that time the market became active and prices entered upon a steadily advancing career. The individual element again asserted itself, and the large purchases of Western Union, Union Pacific and Lake Shore served to give a strong undertone to the rest of the saare list. It is not becoming to say that the advance is more than temporary. Ht «bas, however, created 4 betier feeling for the moment, aod may, possibiy, serve the purpose of the origiiators of tue movement by bringing new customers into the sireet. The gales of the day amounted to 200,066 plares, which were chiefly distmbuted as Jollows:—West- ern Union, 72,300; Union Pacific, 36,800; Toledo and | Wabash, ain un- fecent produce “tral, 7,690: ; St, Paul, 4,880; Lake Shore, 28.200; Erie, 6,000; C., C. & L C., 3,375; Rock Island, 4,010 and Northwest common, 985.
