FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. A Dull Stock Market, with Lower Prices. GOLD FIRMER AT 113 3-4 A 114. Government and Railroad Bonds Steady and Investment Stocks Firm—Money on Call 2 1-2 and 3 Per Cent. 11 STREET. Monpay, Fan 21—6 P, M. ‘The coming event of a close holiday cast ils shadow Defore it om to-day’s market, a shadow of apathy and ‘aulness. | Bince the pools have sold out the fancies have been ‘knocked about from post to pillar, with no sure abid- ing place from one day to another, The minor specu- Jators pass them about from hand to hand, a8 acar -eonducior passes his stamps, and when a holiday oc- curs but few bosoms offer a résting place for thetr “own vstricken dears." Consequently holders to-da} (when prices admitted) were inclined to convey their proprietorship te others «more able to carry and more willing to believe in the good time coming, and there arose from this cause a dull and declining market. | Western Union, which reversed the engine of general speculation a few days back, was sstill the controlling spirit im to-day’s dealings. It ‘was truly the arbiter rerwm, for the tune of traffic ‘took its keynote from the favorite’s comparative strength or weakness. It fact, there was but hittle of veither of shese qualities exhibited during the five busi- mess hours, and Western Union, with ‘the rest of the list, drowsed through the entire day as if under the in- fluence of a prodigious yawn, Under these circum- ‘Btances it is searcely necessary to remark that quota- ‘tions were nearly at a standstill, most of the specula- tives showing but trifling variations, if we except the Granger favorites, which, with characteristic fickleness, even now that the much desired legislation bas ruled favorably, most inconsistently finished at one per cent ower than Saturday’s closing prices, As im real life othe pursuit of an object gives greater satisfaction than Its attainment, so did the pools in the Western stocks jfind it to be the case with them. Their specialties were dirt cheap in view of the prob- jablo passage of the Vance bill, but they grew decidedly dear when the bill became alaw, Then the shares which had been so good a purchase became quite as \good a sale and under this treatment prices which had gone up steadily commenced te go down. There was a lingering hope that the Supreme Court smoght do something m the way of a decision, this being opinion day, but the oracle remained dumb, Whatever there was of interest in the day’s doings jhung. around Western Union, and operators eagerly watched the buyers and sellers of the stock to detect pome sign or symptom which would give them aciew to the general market, Beyond, however, a suspicion that Twenty-thira yetreet was stillaseller and an ill-defined report that Commodore Vanderbilt had lost his taste for an invost- ament which was based upon old iron and kindling wood and had passed over his stock to more credulous believ- @rs, there was little satisfaction gained. Lake Shore and Pacific Mail scarcely deserve mention An the day’s proceedings except for their torpidity and ‘weakness at the close, In a word, we have bad to-day a broker’s market, ‘pure and simple, In reality this is the only sort of market we have had for the last sixty days, though Aransactions have been less cleanly and more complex. ‘There never has been any real outside trade such as existed two or three years ago when the Stock Ex- ichango’ was the Rialto, ‘‘where merchants most do ” There is no longer any of this class ‘‘in stocks,” andthe movement which appears to be cul- quinating owes itsexistence to the manipulations of al operators, who, like the merry-andrew in of a booth, attracted an avdience by the sounds their drums, trumpets and thunder. The stimulants #0 freely administered by the bull cliques being with- old, the market drooped at the close and finished up almost in a state of coma. “ THm SALES TO-Day, ‘The transactions on the Stock Exchange to-day ag- (grogated 71,000 shares, which were distributed among j@ stocks as follows:—New York Central and Hud- 510; Erie, 7,700; Lake Shore, 6,790; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 250; Northwestern, 8,400; do. pre ferred, 2,100; Rock Island, 4,000; Pacific Mall, 2,650; it, Paul, 5,000;. do. preferred, 3,000; Ohtos, 2,850; fWestern Union, 22,465; Wabash, 700; Union Pacific, joo; C., ©. and L.C., 100; Panama, 200, OYENING, HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES. ‘The following table shows the opening, highest and Yowest prices of the day:— jew Jersey Cen’ , Lack, and Western. .
