8 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. ——_ + The Stock Market and Its Prospects--- A Rally To-Day. ACTIVE AT U4 1-4 TO Md 3 StS ae a GOLD Money Easy on Call Loans at 4 and 5 Per Cent. THE BOND MARKET STEADY WALL STREET, } Tuuxspay, April 1-6 P. M. ‘The general situation in the stock market to day is not materially changed, Eatreme duloess prevailed in the early hours, and, with one or two e@xceptions, the range of prices showed the ab wence of a large buying movement, in the ma- Jority of Instances, however, tuese were frm, weil @ustained ana calculated to provoke confidence, although, had the latter not been interrupted by ‘he late sudden shock, it would doubtless have @ontinued to imvite investors aud may have re- sulted in a stronger market. It was probably fortunate that such @ check came at the time it @i4, for it served to recall the caution that seemed to bave been lost in the temptation tosecure large profits, Important combinations are understood to be op foot between some Of the large corpora Siong, and considerable activity is expected to be @eveloped whenever the result ts made puvilo, Toward the close greater activity was exhibited, the cause being reported Muavctal troubles in Germany, under the influence of which consid- erable selling took place. Tnis was qaickly fol- jowed by more Javorabie news, whereapon tne buyers again cume to the /ront, and by their CONVIDRNT ATTITUDE put many prices to the bighest point of tne day. The particulars of the “furry” will be found in another column, The ciose of the market was @trong, and brokers and operators again leit the @treet encouraged by the unexpected events of the day—always excepting, of course, tue unfor- tunates who, selling what they did not own, came out short, sad and demoralized. The movement of speculation on the other #ide of the Atlantic, as it ta described by cabie reports, is not likely to ex- ert dangerous influences on cur own market, be- cause it appears that tne principal sufferers are the “bears.” The extraordinary buoyancy re- ported !s the result of operations In tne French oan and of the extravagance that has grown out of aplethoric and inflated condition. In other words, the Germans of 1875, like the Americans of 1873, have apparently gone crazy over too much money. THE RANGE OF PIYCES.
