The letter of the President of the Western Union ‘Telegraph Company, published in the morning papers, although non-committal in tone, was regarded by the “Street” as indicative, by implication, of a possible con- solidation with the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Com- pany, and of a consequent advance in rates that would ‘warrant free purchasing. Tho opening was therefore strong, and the best price of the day showed a gain over the closing figure yesterday of 14% per cent Sales ‘were made at 83 a 8314 a 8344 a 83%, and finally at 835¢ 83%. The strength of this stock was sympathetically felt in the rest of the market. Lake Shore ad- vanced from 605, the opening price, to 61%, but subsequently declined to 60%, the closing price. Union Pacific was firm at 73 a 13%, but ended at 72%. Northwestern common rose from 41% to 423, and closed at 4234. Pacifie Mail ‘was a trifle weaker, opening at 3934, moving up por cont and ending at 39. Rock Island likewise con- tributed to the firmer tone of the market by advancing from 105% to 106%, closing at 106%. St, Paul common stiffened from 36% to 3734; do. preferred sold at 6034 a 60% 260}4. Hannibal and St. Joseph recovered from 21% to 23, closing at 227%, and wag more active on bet- ter reports from the West. St. Louis, Kansas and Northern preferred sold at 29, Kansas Pacific at 12. New York Central was firm at 10434. Atlantic and Pacific preferred was steady at 1334, a gain of 34 per cont since yesterday, Erie sold at 14% @15, Ohio and Mississippi at 1934 0193 a 1914.

M. The improved tone in financial circles noted in my despatches of yesterday still continues, and all fears of further depression or disaster have passed away. Tho market opened strong and with a buoyant feeling, the outlook for the near future being more hopefal than for somo days past. The improvement is moro marked in American government securities than in any other class of values. In United State bonds the new five-twenties show an advance over yesterday's prices. They are now quoted at 104%. New York Central and Hudson River shares have advanced since the opening of business 34 per cent over the closing figures of yesterday, and are how strong at 9314. The same advance noted in New York Central shares is recorded of New York city sixes. They have appreciated in value \ per cent, and are steady at 106. Consols share in the general improve- ment in prices, and are quoted at 95—a rise of 3 per cent. With the exception of the above changes there is nothing of particular interest to report, except that the market for all classes of railway securities is steady, SECOND DESPATCH. Loxpox, August 13—5 P. M. Tho healthful condition of thé market indicated in my il Sep ici to-day not only continues, but in- revails, especially as regards Ameri- can meniriien still further advance has taken placo in new five-twenties, the market price at the close be- ing 105%. This is a rise of \% per cont since this morn- ing, Tho increased feeling of confidence extends to all ofthe other markets, and the general tone in com- . mercial circles is that of buoyancy and hope. Prices are firm, and, while business is comparatively light, rates are not In any instance lower, Advices from the Continent indicate that tranquility provails on tho Paris Bourse, and that-rentes are firm, Money is abundant in all of the Continental finaneial circles. “THUR TELEGRAM QUOTATIONS” AT THE CLOSE ov THE MARKET, 7, 8, 5-20's of 1865. 10734 . 8. 6-20's of 1867. 1084 1084 1064 106 4 10455 10534 93 93.56 Minis Central. 87 87 Union Pacitic 6’s, 90 90 Union Pacific land’ g 90 90 Erie Railway... 134 134 Contral Pacitic 6's m1 OL Pennsylvania Railroad. 45 45 Reading Railroad. ‘ to New York city 6's 106 LATER DESPATCHES, Sixty-one thousand pounds sterling are reported to have gone into the Bank of England to-day. 4P.

Fripay, August 13—6 P. M. ‘The trade movement has continued erratic all through the week, and very little change for the bettor has taken place, even in the volume of business, which continues small in nearly all the chief commodities which go to make up the “merchandise markets” in all the great commercial centres, The disinclination of buyers to go beyond their immediate wants in making their pur- chases has been a conspicuous characteristic of the fall trade this year, and it has been no less conspicuous dur- ing the past week than previously. Somehow the idea seoms to have got abroad that, no mat. ter how low prices have fallen, thero is every probability that there will bo a still further shrink- age, and that the longer buyers hold off the better bar- gains they will be abloto make. On the other hand, however, extraordinary inducements have been held out to buyers to cause them to buy early, and after a little, when buying becomes moro general, these in- dueements will be unnecessary and will be withheld. Hpw- ever this may be and whichever may be right, the fact that business is everywhere dull remains, The excitethent in the brondstuifs market, occasioned by the unusually heavy. mid- summer rain storms, has died out, and a sharp reaction has carried prices back considerably, though it is not at all likely that breadstuffs will fall ¢@B anything like the low prices Intely current. The damage to the crops, it is now pretty evident, was groatly exaggerated, yet the damage was un- doubtedly sufficient to cause a considerable loss, which may affect the price of the entire wheat crop, though to what ex- tent can only be conjectured. The dealings in wheat have been fair, but the fluctuations in prices have been con- siderable,” the market to-day being unsettled and deci. dodly lower, thougl: there was afalr inquiry for export at cline. Corn has been irregular, but the fnotaations oo not been Cepia magh close day prices favored the bayer, , Oats secon snd , being a good lower at the close of the woek than se the beginning: Whiskey ruled firmer but quick Provisions have ruled dull for the most part, and prices have declined.

The California and Oregon forgeries puzzled the street to degree yesterday. Tho HkRaLp representative compared the forged and genuine bonds at the office of Messrs, Fisk & Hatch, and found them to be equally badly executed. There was evidently a rough hand at work when commas and hyphens were omitted in the counterfeits and splendid workmanship in the exeow- tion of the,forged bonds in the signatures of the un- worthy bonds. When Mr. P. C. Calhoun, of the Fourth, National Bank, and Mr, Eugene Kelly could not distin- guish the original from the counterfeited signatures there was sufficient evidence of the cleverness of the fom geries. ‘The detectives, Elder, Macdougal and Thompson, had not changed their clothing for three nights, and had tn curred expenses which will never be reimbursed to thens in the prosecution of the malefactors. This, thon, is sufficiently indicative of their zeal and should not be ua acknowledged. THR LRADING PRISONER, MAZRWELL, is said to be an old suspect in connection with the Wa- bash bonds “shoved’’ on the street, about two years since. He was a Unitarian preacher in tho old days; an editor of a hybrid journal called the Globe; an operator in Southern coy mining stocks, and, altogether, a plausible man who could further schemes of doubthul profit. Ray is said to be a man of marvellous parts; one who had squandered a fortune in liberal ways and after- ward let in his friends for t and pocketed the ofits, if any, himself. Marshall, a sort of scay t for tho designers, and Ed. Hall, a go-between for tho others, This is ‘THE GOSSIP OF WALL STREET, and it is not without reason, A prominent banker in the Drexel Building said to the Heraup ae lial “About one year ago this man Hazewell came to me an nogotiated a loan on 2,000. bonds of @ certain railway company. I discovered soon afterward that the regis~ tration marks had been erased by acids, putting them ona par with coupon bonds, I putltho affair in the hands of a detective, and the next day the gentleman came and deposited $1,000, saying he would redeem the bonds shortly, A few weeks since he came and ga’ me a check for the balance due, but it was not mado good immodiately. This irregularity was, however, rectified on the following day, and now I have ‘THR BONDS AND MONEY. ‘This was just before the exposure of the late forgeries. Upon interviewing Detectives Elder and Macdougal, at the office of Messra. Fisk & Hatch, the Heraup re- porter was informed that four bonds of the Now York Central Railroad RRAL ESTATE SIX PER CENT bonds had been discovered to be for, and that a loan of $8,600 had been obtained upon the same from the Mechanics’ National Bank. It is notydefinitely Sore. in the absence of Mr. F, E. Worcester, the treasurer the Central, that these bonds are “crooked ; 7" but it is deemed best to warn the public against negotiations of of the same until the company formally passes upon their genuineness. THE DRCKASR OF SAMURL F, LOCKW: was announced late in the day at the Stock x Exaiangn, and caused general regret among the members. It is a matter of no small congratulation that the rebate on the tax on extra capital is being pald by the government. It will be remembered that this tax was stoutly contested by certain members of the Exchange about four years ago, and about $50,000 was paid yes- terday on account of the awards made to erm claim- ants. All brokers are debarred from participating—ac- cording to the act of Congress—who did not file their claims before July, 1872; consequently, as the suite against the government were prosecuted by wre capital, only those firms can come in who ai Frank Work and Clarke Dodgo suits in the Supreme Court.
