FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, An Analysis of the New Currency Bill. CONTRACTION OR INFLATION—WHICH ? Two Views of the Measur and Its Operation. HVENTS OF THE WEEE. ‘The Market in Stocks, Gold, Money and Bonds. WALL STREET, } Sunpay, June 21, 1874, Now that the new Finance vill has passed both Mhouses by such a large majority an analysis ‘of the same and of its practical operation will De of interest. In the first plice the inflation- sts in Congress have proved themselves to be lit- ‘te better than children in the management of this great question. It was only through the Presi- dent's veto that they were sayed irom .a violent contraction tliat would have resulted from the ap- Proval of their tirst pill, And now, although the Measure awaiting the President's signature is ‘wrong in principie anda step away frum rather than in the direction of a sound currency, and it falls in every particular to meet the requirements of General Grant, as suggesied in his ‘“memo- gandum,” it will still prove to be contractive'in its effect, and will practically Jock up $17,000,000 of legal tenders. So much for the efforts at expan- sion, In order to arrive at a correct conclusion as ‘to the merits of tne bill it is necessary to examine tt from TWO DISTINCT POINTS OF VIEW, ‘which may be respectively designated the Con- Bressional and the Presidential. From the Con- gressional view tue bill clearly intends inflation, Snasmuch as it increases the amount of legai ‘tenders from $356,000,000 to $382,000,000, thus as- serting the right of Congress to make anything but gold a legal teader in time of profound peace. If Sanctioned by the President the result of this @egislation must be to postpone indefinitely the weturn of specie payments and to warn all foreign wapitalists that they are at the mercy of the ca. price of a body of men who may at will, next year ‘orin some other session, by turther increasing, change the value of the currency in which the ‘creditors of the nation will be compelled at a duture day to accept their payments; for if Con, @ress possesses the power to increase the amount ot legal tenders one dollar it has the same right to carry them to a figure that may force re- Pudiation. One point is indisputadle—to wit, that there can be no restoration of confidence, no sta- Dility and no faith in the honor of the American people until either Congress once more ana for- ever renounces any such power or some decision is made by the Supreme Court of the United States vhat such power is an illegal usurpation and there- fore null ana void. The teature of tne bill that re- fers to the redistribution of bank circulation is scarcely worth discussing, because in ITS PRACTICAL EFFECT itis not more likely to be operative than an enact- ment for the redistribution of the wheat flelds of | the West for the benefit of New England. The law, | for instance, has been long in existence which authorized the redistribution of $25,000,000, yet not one dollar has been taken. In tact, the total bank circulation is only about $350,000,000, thus Jeaving $4,000,000 to be taken up even without en- croaching upon the necessity of redistribution. Section 3 of the bill, which provides tor the re- demption of national bank notes through the Treasury, ts a practical step towards a much needed reform, but it would be difficult to give a satisfactory reason why the Treasury should be used for any such purpose. Asimple repeal of that portion of the National Bank act, which makes a national bank note receivable by the gov- ernment jor taxes and other dues, would have been Of more avail in establisning and eniorciag redemption on the part of the banks. It this had been done, with the ultimate payments of the notes secured, as they are, by deposits of United States bonds, government would have performed its whole duty in this particular without loading the Treasury Department with machinery tor re- demption. The bill is crudely and loosely drawn, and does not even accomplish, as is hereafter shown, a curtaliment of the power ot the Secre- tary of the Treasury over the amount of legal tenders actually outstanding. For the foregoing Feasons, given from a Congressional view, it ought mot to be expecied that the President will approve the bill. From THE PRESIDENTIAL STANDPOINT, The bill is, and in tts practical working will prove to be, a measure of contraction. First, the Execu- tive Department have heretofore claimed that the maximum of legal tenders was $400,000,000. This Dill at once strikes off $18,000,000 of what the De- partment calls @ “reserve,” but which, if anything, ‘was @ balance. For instance, last night the Treas- ury reports as a currency balance $13,000,000; add the reserve (so-called) $18,000,000, ana the June balance on hand ts $31,000,000, subject to the draits ofthe department. The new Dill is as follows:— SECTION 6. That the amount of United States notes outstanding ond to be issued as 4 part of the cir- culating medium shall not exceed the sum of $332,000,000, which said sum shall appear in each pisses statement of the pudlic debt, and no part thereof shall be held or used as a reserve, It will be seen thatthe word “reserve,” includ- ing the $18,000,000 of so-called “reserve,” is abolished. Yet it must not be understood that the Treasury is thereby restricted as to the amount of “‘balance"’ that may be kept, for ifsuch should be the interpretation of section 6 the Treasury would Not be permitted to hold a single dollar. Clearly the bill leaves the amount of “balance” to be retained in the Treasury to the discretion of its chief. Therefore, since it has always been claimed by the President and by Secretaries Boutwell and Richardson that a large reserve was necessary for the safe and easy working of the department, it 1s | reasonable to expect that with the $18,000,000 stricken out of existence, and no longer a fund subject to draft for contingencies, the department will henceforth be compelled to keep in handa “balance” instead of a “reserve.” This is prac- ‘tical contraction, and the power of the administra- sion to PLAY FAST AND LOOSE @ith the legal tenders actually in circulation will Only be limited, as it always has been, by the re- ceipts aud payments of the Treasury. Further contraction will result from the passage of the third section, which says that ali national banks “shall at all times keep and have on deposit in the ‘Treasury of the United States, in lawfal money of the United States, a sum equal to five per cent Of its circulation,” &c. ‘This will require the with- drawal of $17,500,000 in legal tenders, the bulk of which must be abstracted from the reserves of the redemptiow cities, The laws of prudence, which have always governed the management of banks, wil) require that the reserves to be held to mect their deposits and sedeem their bills over their own country shall not be less than they have been heretofore. It ts not to be supposed that because an act of Congress no longer requires a specified sum to be held it will be any more sate to violate the well Known and natural laws of banking. Again, there is scarcely a bank in the country out- side of the redemption cities which holds in its own vaults an amount of legal tenders equal to two per cent on the amount of its circulation, It 4s well known that it ts the custom of COUNTRY BANKS to keep nearly all, if not all, their reserve on deposit {tn the banks of the large cities, whereon they draw interest; and instances may be mentioned of small but fourisbing manufacturing towns in the East in which it is understood that when the manufac- turer requires a thousand or more dollars for his order that iv may ODtain the currency in Boston. Now, such being the case, where are the country banks to get their legal tenders for deposit in the Treasury if not by drafts on the large cities? And, with nearly the whole of this $17,500,000 withdrawn from the reserves of the redemption cities, what is likely to be the condition of the remaining re, serve held against their deposits? Taking as an illustration the three cities of New York, Phila- deiphia and Boston, according to their last re- ports, they would, after depositing the 5 per cent on their own circulation (amounting to $3, 150,000), holdin legal tenders only 2515 per cent of their ae- posits, subject to further reducttona by drafts from the country banks for the purpose of depositing in the Treasury. The mistake of the inflationists on this point is that their bill is drawn upou the theory that every bank was holding in its own vault its own reserve, instead of upon the fact that the same sum of legal tenders is counted in two and three and sometimes four reserves. THE STOCK MARKET. The course of prices throughout the past week continues to show the existence of a still un- settled feeling with reference to tho future and that tone of depression which attends a half de- fined fear that something may suddenly occur and discover the street unprepared. The failure of a wellknown and highly respected house, without directly affecting the market, contributed not a little to enhance the distrust above referred to, while the occasional sharp fluctuations and the persistency with which prices declined elicited not only caution, but deterred the lesser operators trom taking eituer long or heavy risks. “Itis a long lane, however, that has no turn,” and when least looked for a change may take place that will cause hundreds to regret that they did not make their purchases while low figares—even lower in some cases than during the panic—invite invest- ment. THE TACTICS OF THE BEARS, however, added to the suspicion that there is more or less of present weakness among the rail- roads, are well calculated to disturb confidence on the part of outsiders and prevent active specu- lation. It is to be regretted that the improvement In trade does not more quickly show itself in the better reports of the railroad earnings that are published irom time to time, for the cau‘ious in- vestor accepts these as a gauge or measure of the situation, and bases his judgment thereon. As one illustration of the decline of business com- pared with the fret months of the year it may be noted that the whole of tue earnings of the Toledo, Wabash and Western Road for the five months ending May 31, show @ decrease of only $75,000, the first two weeks of June show a decrease of $61,000, making a total decrease from January 1 | to the date of the last report of $139,000, A sim- ilar condition of affairs obtains tn other railway corporations, and, doubtless, in part accounts for the unwillingness to make their reports public. THE CONFIDENCE with which operators have recently put out op- tions seller sixty days appears to be based, irre- spective of financial legislation, upon tacts like the foregoing, and, possibly, upon the expectation of furtner decline and stagnation as the result of | diminished earnings and defaults, The decline of | the week ranged from 1 to 534 per cen the prin- cipal sufferers being Wabash, Northwest common, Lake Shore, Rock Island. Pacific Mail, Western Union, Union Pacific, 0. C, and 1. C., Delaware and Lackawanna and Erie.

The gain of bullion by the bank of England dur- ing the week was £929,000, and the Bank reduced its rate ofdiscount to 2% per cent., a fact which shows @ superabundance of idle capital, and a stagnant condition of uffairs such as exists in our own country. United States Securities have con- sequently shown an average greater strength and steadiness on the London Bourse, and promise to be more sought after than heretofore by investors. Money is said to be looking for employment, and several loans are now im process of negotiation, with more or less prospects of success. It is to be borne in mind that this gain to the English capital 18 at our own expense, the accretion being largely Gue to the shipments of gold made from this port. STATE AND RAILROAD BONDS, It is gratifying to observe that the interest on Louisiana bonds up to the 1st of January is now being paid in New Orleans, and the interest on the new funded bonds (sixty per cent of the face value of the old bonds) will, it is said, be paid in July, Tennessee is also paying her July interest at Nash- ville. South Carolina still continues in a bad way, and while so dishonestly governed is not likely to improve. brought in the United States Circuit Court of that State against the State Treasurer to compel him to retain money to pay interest on the special tax bonds, The trade in ratlroad bonds was chiefly confined to those of the older sort, for while they have more or less suffered trom the depressing in- fluences of the general market they are still re- garded as among the choicest and salest securities how offered, GOVERNMENT BONDS, ‘The business tn this department was fairly active during the past week, and prices at the close were firmer and higher than on the preceding Saturday. The Secretary of the Treasury issued another call for five-twenty bonds of 1862, on which the interest, will cease September 5, 1874, if not presented for payment. Of the amount outstanding, $900,000 are coupon bonds and $100,000 are registered bonds. MONEY. In the money market no change occurred which 18 worthy of note.

Saruxpay, June 20—6 P. M. Trade was moderate in nearly all branches dur- ing last week, but, though prices were unsteady and fluctuating, there were comparatively tew changes of importance. Speculation was checked somewhat by the recession of gold since the publi- cation of the President’s views with regard to financial matters, which has exerted a beneficial influence throughout duancial and commercial circles. Legitimate trade was stimulated in some departments, and a more healthy feeling obtained almost everywhere. The dry goods, hardware, boot and shoe and kindred markets were char- acterized by dullness, and the aggregate business of the week Was small. There was an active ex- port movement in breadstuifs, however, and the markets steadily ruiead in sellers’ favor, The sales on 'Change were large from day to day, yet afforded little indication of the export movement because of the fact that a very large proportion of the grain going forward was purchased previous to arrival. The flour market was more lively all through the week and prices were steadier, sales in some cases toward the close of the week showing an improvement of fully one quarter dollar per barrel as compared with prices at the close ot last week. The market was very dull with increas- ing indications of a further improvement. Corn was in active request all through the wees, and prices ex- perienced a very decided advance. The bulk of the purchases were on foreign account. Oats were dull and heavy, but without decided change. Prine white were scarce and realized extreme prices. Whiskey under- ‘went nochange of moment, the market remaining steady. Pork was quiet and almost nominal all through the week, but closed firmer. Lard was less active, ir- regular and fluctuating all the week, the general tetldeney velng towards a lower point, tidagh trince at the close. sales were made for tuture delivery, mostly tor July and August, at decidedly lower prices than were paid a week ago. Freights were irreguiar, but on the Whole much higher, growing firmer towards the close of the week. On saturday business was moderate, as Produce Exchange. and moderately active. Flour was steadier Wheat was rather quiet and a tritle easier, but closed at about yesterday's prices. Corn was active and tirm, Large sales were made for delivery next week. Oats were operated in to a tair ex- tent at about steady prices. Provisions were generally quiet. Pork, lard and bacon were all firmer. cotee ‘was active to-day and the market firm. Sugar wae firm but quiet for raw, while refined was moderately active. Cotton remained dull, with prices of “spot” showing a further reduction of %¢¢. per tb. Freights were quiet but firm. Petroleum was dull, lower and nominal. Spirits of turpentine Was inactive, but hela with rather more confidence, while rosin was offered at lower prices with- out finding purchasers.

The Montana Mountatneer gives the following official reports confirming the previously an- nounced intentions of the Dakota Indians to levy war:— FORT ABRAHAM LINCOLN, May 26, 1874, TO THE ASSISTANT ADJUTANT GENERAL, DEPART- MENT OF Dakora, ST. PAUL, MINN. :— 1 am just in receipt of the despatches from Gen- eral Stanley and the Indian Agent at Cheyenne Agency, frem which it will be seen that the In- diuns are no longer controlled by their agent, and iu spite of all the efforts of General Staniey and their agent they have taken the warpath in formi- dabie numbers. The alleged pretext of their incursion—viz., to attack the Rees, is simply a subterfuge, as they in- variably give this as their purpose whenever they leave their reservation, when it is well known that not only the Kees become subjects of their at- tacks, bat every white man on these frontiers is an ovject ot their hostilities. From these despatcnes they should reach this Post soon, tf not diverted to Fort Berthold. Should they come anywhere in this vicinity I will en- deavor to give them such a greeting as Will not induce them to repeat their visit. Owing to the importance of tne information contatued in the despatches of General Stanley and the Indian agent at Cheyenne Agency, 1 transmit them en- ture. This voluntary and approvoked departure of so formidaple a war party trom their reservation rests upon no idle rumor, but upon the positive knowledge of General Stanley and the agent of these people. @. A. CUSTER, GENERAL STANLEY ADVISES POWDER AND LEAD, DareD Fort SULLY, D. T., May 22, 1874, To Lieutenant Colonel G. A. CusTER, Seventh Cavalry, commanding Fort Abraham Lincoln, D. T. Sir: Enclosed please find a copy of communica- tion received this morning from H. W. Bingha United States Indian Agent at Cheyenne Agency, . T. Since receiving this | have visited the agency, and have induced the chiefs to follow_the war party and try to turn them back, They agreed to deliver my message to the war party but declare that hte 2 will taduce them to turn back, The number leaving Cheyenne Agency is fully 400. They expect reinforcements at Grand \ River, and say they will be the strongest war pean | that ever started for the Rees, 1 could not learn that they intend to attack your Rees scouts, but this has been their game for the last two years, calculate that it will take them seven days to et opposite you, which would be about the 29th ins! Mf the intention of this large war-party be to avoid you and strike the Rees villages, { advise you | to keep scouts well out toward Heart Butte, and try to detect and frustrate their design. As to how to deal with them if you meet them, I leave to your good judgment. They are not likeiy to be amenable to soft words, and you had better use powder and lead at once. | Ihave notified the commanding officer at Fort Rice to be on the lookout about the 27th inst. If you deem it necessary order two (2) of the companies at Fort Rice to join you. I regret that the telegraph line to this Rane 18 still down, other- wise I should of course have referred this matter to the commanding officer of the department. Very respectiully your obedient servant. D. 5. SEANLEY, THE LAWRENCEBURG (IND.) HORROR— THE FIEND ARRESTED, A special to the Chicago Times gives the follow- ing announcement of the arrest of the fend who | is supposed to have committed the unnatural crime on the Bradley family, near Lawrenceburg, Ind., details of which appeared in the HERALD of yesterday. The despatch is dated the 18th :— Evidence ts beginning to thicken around William McUowell, the man first suspected of murdering the Bradiey jamily, When examined, on Wednes- day, before the Coroner’s jury, he was nervous | and contradictory in his statements, and when re- Jeased went at once to his home in Elizabethtown. He was followed and nis room searched, In it were found the clothing he had worn on Monday, stained with blood, which he had tried to wash A shirt worse stained was discovered his bed, and also a pair of muddy As Elizabethtown is beyond the Indiana line, = McDowell was persuaded to visit Lawrenceburg and meet Whiliam Bradley, the husband or the murdered woman. He was ar- rested at Lawrenceburg by the Marshal and lodged in jal. This afternoon the prisoner was brought before Mayor Houck, at the Court House, where hundreds were crowding to see the man and hear the evidence. The excitement was intense, When the charge against the Prisoner was read he re- plied, “1 did not do it,” and the case was con- tinued until the following day to enable McDowell to secure counsel. ‘The prisoner has always been a | worthless rover, of @ malicious disposition and has @ hard looking countenance. It is known that six- teen years ago the same McDowell left home with hts wife on a trip to Cincinnati and returned with- out her, and that about that time the body of a woman, supposed to be the wife, was found in | one of the cit alleys, and buried, after a sham in- cs in the Potters’ Field. It is also known that radiey and the McDowells once owned @ mili in common, and that there has been bad feeling bde- tween the parties. Since Bradley bought “and with the p ds of the mill, Mra. Bradley would not allow her husband to mortgage his property, and tt 1s believed that the prisoner may have done the deed for revenge.
