GOLD AND MONEY VALUES. Government and Railway Bonds—Foreign Exchange—Mining News—The Railway War. Watt Srexer, Suxpay, April 30, 1876, jA8 regards the volume of business transacted on the different days of the past week the Stock Exchange has been a perfect variety show, for 1t has offered an euter- tainment of brisk market, a moderately active one and periods of intense dulness. It was rather a re- hearsal than a performance, for the doings were left to the professionals thomselves, the paying public keep- ing steadfastly away, as they have for so longa time been doing. As regards the entertainment, it was rather of the nature of a tragedy than a farce—a matter of tears than smiles—lor it presented a market steadily fechning to prices lower than have prevailed for many months past. Some stocks are even marking the lowost figures in their history, and none of them— good, bad or indifferent—have escaped the blight, A few words of review as to some of the causes for this depression will not be out of place. Privately there exists an intense feeling of disap- pomtment that the expected improvement in tho | spring business in commercial circles has not been real- led, There was asort of superstitious idea that the entennial year wasto boatalsman that would set sverything right, and there wasa magnetism in the | mystic 100 that was to speed with electric effect through the veins of trade, But the magician has failed toappear, and the circuit of the current is broken. On the contrary, the token 100 seems as an augury to be decidedly inauspicious, for itis the first time in our history that we have declared our inde. pendence with three figures, two of which are ciphera, and the other the smallest of numerals, Is it two to bne that we are not going to do so well in the new cen- tury as we did in the old? In cricket parlance, is our tuture seore to be a record of goose eggs, and our little game to be piayed with a double zero as it was at Hom- burg? Is ita case of ex nihil nihil At, or, more cheer- fuily, may it not prove the trath of the old grammatical rule that two negatives must makean affirmative? We pause for a reply. i Next in importance and closely due to the de- pression in business ts the railway war with its ruin- bus competition and the consequent failing off in re_ peipts and capacity for dividends, which latter must “grow small by degrees and beautifully less.” Long lines of stocks, representing Lake Shore, Michigan Central: and other less prominent roads, which for months past have been lugged along under good repute and ill repute, have found their way on the market and bave gone into bands that may or may not be able to bold them as the shaping of the future will decide. The sume is the case with Western Union Telegrapn— the same sort of strife and the same cutting under with the same disastrous results to unfortunate stock- doiders, ‘There is a homely adage which declares that “What's me man’s meat is another man’s poison,” and it 18 dus likely to occur in the present instance as between the public at large and the shareholders of the corpo- tations. The bearish feeling on Change has been still further Mrengtkened by the defection of Mr. Gould from the bull speculation, which seems not only to have sapped it of whatever strength was left, but to have frightened the lesser magnates on that sido completely into re- tirement. 1t Is possible, however, for the downward movement to be overdone, and, as sometimes happens to the shining lights of Church and finance who fall away from grace, with a startling suddenness the market is likely to get off on the upward tack at any moment, A bear panic in the present oversold state of the mar- ket is no improbable event, and its accomplishment rests with the fiat of pretty nearly ove man.

THR GOLD MARKET. The gold speculation was alternately weak and firm within a narrow range of fluctuations, the extremes of the week being 1124 and 112%. Cash gold was easy until Thursday, when as high as 1-32 per cent per diem was paid for its use. At the close something was paid for carrying. The gold fluctuations of the week were | as follows:— Opening. Highest. Lowest. Closing. % 12% 112% 2s ay nase n2%¢ | Uy 112K | ‘The first part of the week’s transactions were rather limited, owing mostly to the higher prices asked for all bonds, with a declining premium on goid; but during the latter part of the week buyers gained cour- age, thus causing brisk transactions anda rapid ad- vance of prices. j RAILROAD BONDS, Sales in this line were somewhat limited, being loss than $1,200,000, and as a general rule prices have been firm. The fluctuations were confined to three or four stocks. Investors have shown their hand freely | among the unquestionable bonds, and we look for higher prices, STATE BONDS were dull and irregular. On the official list of sales only now and then a sale was reported, and the total transactions scarcely amount to $150,000. Outside of | boards we hear ofa little more activity. In Texan and | other Southern bonds various sales are reported, Good municipal bonds of New York and vicinity re- main in good demand, and are readily taken up as soon as they appear at tho regular market rate, THE BANKs, During the week most of the banks have gained in about 29 per cent, of which 20 per cont is in legal tender, There are still many banks, however, which hold less than that proportion of legal tenders, and | some which bave less than the reserve required by law. The decrease of loans since April 15 was not sur- prising, but this average has fallen lower than it has been before since 1878, and a speedy increase is naturally to be expected. 4 SEW DEAL BY THE WESTERN UNION COMPANY. It is reported, on what seems to be good authority, that the Western Union Telegraph Company have recently made a new investment, to wit, by purchasing acontrolling interest in the Southern Atlantic Tele. | graph Company. This company has a capital stock of | bonded to the amount of $100,000. The story told is | as follows:—-Cortain parties connected with the Atlantic | and Pacific Telegraph Company bad quietly boen | picking up the shares at about §5 per j share, when suddenly the Western Union ap- | peared as a purchaser at $12 50 per share, which would make half of the capital stock cost $250,000. As this was a higher valuation than was placed upon the property by the Atlantic and Pacific peo- | ple, they gladly availed themselves of the opportunity to | realize the offered profit of $7 60 per share on what so far as the purchase by the Western Union is con. cerned, the query is how was the purchase money re- alizod? Mas the Western Union sold some of jts own | stock? THE RAILROAD WAR, add, Rumors, however, are in circulation that 18 to extend to west bound freights and passenger traflo which it may do, but as yet there is no better author- ity for the supposition than that the fight seems to grow in bitterness between the Central and Hudson on the one hand, and the Baltimore and Ohio and Penn- sylvavia roads on the other. That the winter rates | could not be maintained after the opening of lake and canal navigation was a foregone conclusion, but bis partially ‘our-track line, stcam on the canal, isa problem that time and a stoppage of the issue of ‘‘con- struction” bonds only will solve. strength.

It cannot make trade when there is none, but when a breeze does come it takes the wind quickly. During last month Baltimore exported 2,500,000 bushels of corn, ab unusually large quantity.

THE PROMISED REMEDY FOR PRESENT ABUSES- WHAT MR. ANDREWS PROPOSES—A NEW AND REASONABLE SCHEDULE OF PRICES, At last we are on the eve of a practical effort toward the reform of our absurd cab system. Within the next two weeks the movement promised by Mr, Andrews, President of the American District Telegraph Company, will be periected. His arrangements for the establis! ment of the line of hacks, which were spoken of in the Heravp a short time ago, are rapidly progressing. Mr. Andrews has been il), or the new project would have developed itself before, He is improving now and has taken steps to complete his plan, the details of which have already been published. The necessity for such an enterprise has been keenly felt for a long time, aud hacks or liveries on the subject has afforded apy good or valid reasons for the continuance of the special licentiates, or even the Public Hack Owners’ Associa- tion, from whom little relief can be expected while they remain at variance instead of striving to solve the dificulties of which they are the parents, On Saturday a Henan reporter saw Mr, Andrews and Jearned from him tnat the uew line is likely to be in operation next week, having upward of 16v vehicles at the call of customers at far reduced rates, At pres- ent-the District Telegraph Company has 4,000 ‘calls’? in houses and places of business, each of which will be able, on the establishment of the new cab company, to Ting for a conveyance to take persons to any point im the city at a moderate charge. Instead of paying, aa people vow do, $1 50, at least, to places below Four- teenth street, they will be transferred at the reason- able rate of from thirty-seven and a half cents to ifty conte 4 mile wherever they want to go. The drivers will not be allowed to collect fares from customers— that is, any of the 4,000 who havo ‘“calls.’’ They will merely sign tho ticket, a white ono, containing their addresses and the poiat to which they have been driven, and the company will see to the settlement of j. the bill as they do now with messages, Casual or tran- sient passengers in cabs will sign a red tiekat, of which they will retain a duplicate, the driver holding the other, and pay him, Thus it may bo understood at once that exiortion will be impossible, All this is to come about at once, because Mr. Andrews is and bas been in communteation with companies and per. sons who are in perfect harmony with his project. New York, therefore, is likely to experience imme- diate relief from the existing hack abuses. The hacks, coupés and cabs have not to be built. They are alrealy in operation under their own proprictors, and are quite as elegant as any driven through our streets, . THR OLD AND NEW. As tho system now in vogue bas been universally condemned—and the rival managers have béen trying to lay the blame of the abuses fostered by it to the authorities, rather than to themselves—it is but just to show how the former are exempt from the charges laid atthoirdoor, Inthe first place the Mayor and the Superintendent have both expressed thomsolves very emphatically on the question as opposed to the seale of prices allowed by the ordinances under which cabs are run. Mr. Wickham thought that the police should have full contro) of the matter, Doth im license and redress for extortion, because they in the city, and would therefore make the most effl- cient inspectors, withuut entailing any additional ex- pense on the city for an increase of these much needed ‘was afterward passed by the Board of Aldermen over his objection. The Superintendent, Captain Leary, has always taken the trouble to inform passengers from balls and ‘routs,’ where he has been in charge, to take the dri 's ticket and report to him what they thought oxorbitant demands for conveyance to or from their homes. Further than this, tbe section of the or- ‘was so amended as to permit only respectable and well known persons to take part in the business, These are the articles referring specifically to licenses and the persons who can obtain them :— ARTICLE L—OF LICKNSING,OWNERS OF HACKNEY COACHES OR cans.

The Court, before which the case was brought, held that all the ore within the lines of the first mine located belonged to the company locating it, which view was sustained by Mr. Lippincott.

Now the great trouble has been that no driver, be he over so reputable, has bad the privilege of soliciting return fares whon be bas put down bis passenger at his desti- nation down town. Therefore the owners of vehicles have been compelled, they contend, to make the half | trip pay for both; hence tho present high scale of prices, Tho intention of the now is to run fre~ quently for cheap rates and to obtain privileges which will entitic them totake freight wherever they get it, Mr. Andrews does not anticipate any serious obstacles to his projeet. ‘THE PRESENT RATES AND PRICES. | The Public Hack Owners’ Association thought that | reform goneraliy satisfactory could be obtained by the | annalling of spectal lieenses and obliging every back- | | man in Now York to number his coach. They also asked for the uniform scale of prices established by tne | late ordinance, im the hope that something like a fair competition would be afforded those who embarked in | the business and felt that they could run coaches for Jess than the rates prescribed by law. So far they have been unsuccessful and are still holding meetings | under the guidance of Mr, Thomas Boylston, of East | Thirty-eighth street, to bring about, if possible, an | equalization of rates at lower figures, It is evident that the present ordinance two great a latitude for @xtortion, notwithstanding the well meant en- deavors of those who framed the article which gover charges, For example, section 16 of article 3 say: “To ‘balls and theatres and returning from any point | below Filty-nintn street, $3. North of Futy-niuth rate not to exceed fifty cents.” This gives the driver the privilege of charging titty cents each for every person in bis hack above the limit mentioned, so that | it there be four persons couch, coming irom the | Academy of Music to Sixty-fifth street, they can be | $2 for the last six blocks, when they had only paid $3 for the first forty-tive. Of coursethey imagine that the fifty cents for the four is al der the ordinance that the driver is entitled to; section admits of two constructions, oue of which benedts the driver. Everybody eels that the system and ordinances con- tro Ic are wroke, and baila witb del nt the ProApect reform which is expected from about w established, 6--WITH SUPPLEMENT.

HOW THE JARVEYS SWINDLE THEIR EMPLOY- ERS—CHEATING IN PURCHASING HORSES, HARNESS, OATS, FEED, HAY AND STRAW. | No class of house servants in this or any other large | city are so fat, sleek and prosperous as. private coach- men in wealthy familice, They live, as it were, on the fat of the land, receive good wages, even in bad tines, and their apartments over the stables they manage are, im many instances, as well built and comfortable as | those iv which their masters live. They are the only | class of servants the nature of whose duties compels | employers to furnish separate establishments for them | to live in with their families, As a consequence they | are more independent and perbaps more insolent than | any of their follow servants, In our uptown streets | off Fitth avenue these privat bles may be found in rows, as well built and comfortable as the mansions of | which they are appanages,’ Where house room is pro- | vided the coachman lives rent free, and is in many cases provided with gas and coal also, Forty or fifiy and as much as seventy-five dollars a month are paid to coachmen who bave no food furnished them. The | writer knew of one coachman who drove for a gentle- man on Brooklyn Heights and who received $100a month and his board, and yet he had never to do any- thing but siton the box. Fora family living in good atyle avery great deal of expense is entailed by keeping a carriige and pair, or, as is sometimes necessary, three or four horses. They must pay first of all a coachman who does nothing but drive, and who will not soil his hands by doing anything else. Then there ts the footman, who may condescend, when in good humor, to wait on table. - The groom and the stable boy complete the list, One might think that, with such good wages, good feeding and comfortable living in general, private coachmen could well afford to be honest in dealing with their kind and, in many instanceg, liberal employers, | but m the majority of cases they are not, It 1s unde- niubly true that aclass private coachmen are the most dishonest d untrustworthy of all servants. ‘This may seem a very sweeping assertion, but it is borne out on strict thvestigation by facts Let any | employer im New York to-day call his private coach- | man whom he trusts to the feed bills, get the } horses shod, have the carr repaired or who has the privilege of choosing a lage or span of horses | ud ask him what percentage he receives trom avy of hese parties for cheating his master. The coachinan will, if dishonest, deny ali knowledge of such swindling on his own part or onthe part of any other private coachman; but, it: honest, he will not be able to state truly that coschmen of his close acquaintance do not cheat t employers in the most wholesale and persistent manner, MOW IT 18 DON®, And now, how is this nefarious swindling, which | pisces the much maligned public hackmen many cubits ‘igher in the scale of honesty than the private coach- ood mm social rank desires to b he does not drive ho about them, Perh merely to please h . done? A gentleman of wealth and who has y u pair of horses, and per! 8, ride them or know anything | jn fact, he wishes to buy them | ife, having au expensive Eng- | hsh coachman, gro and footmen, who may be seen any day in the week loaiing in and out of the stable with straws in their mouth: talkin with a solemn air of wisdom of Hopsom an the “Darby.” As the gentleman bimeelf does not know anything whatever of horses, of course ho usks his coachman to go to the dealers or the livery stable proprietor who may have horses for sale. The coach- man having already duly impressed his employer with a beliot in his preturnatural sagacity as to horses, bas carte blanche given him as to how and what he shall buy, Mr, Coachman proceeds to the horso dealers and inspects the animals forsale, Ho finally, alter a good deal of seemingly useless chatfing, poids toa horse that { “might do” if the ‘conditions’ are favorable. The “gonditions’? mean the amount of money that tho | dealer is willing to deduct from the bill or add to it, as the case may be, in favor of the coachman, “That’s a nice looking horse; a very tidy little ant- mal, so he is. Looks as if he would go well, and good and'sound, I ope?” remarks the coachman, ‘with spoo- uiation in hie eyo, |. “That's a pretty good horse, and I want $600 for. him. He’s worth it, every cent, and I can’t sell him | Vesa,” says the dealer, who knows whom ho is talking wit “4A vory tidy little animal, but $600 ts ‘igh, isn’t it?” | says the conchman, ‘My idea is that I ought to got a | little pot of money myself to make tho trade good.’ “How much do you want?’ asks the horse dealer. “{ won't sell that stock lews than $600. He is worth it, and that’s my price.” “Make yoar bili out for $750 and send it in to the oid man. Let me have $150 and the horse will stay in the old man’s stable. You know he might get sick or go off his feed and then I'd have to send him back to you, | The j and | $450, | 1s not merely exorbitant, but is a downright robbery. | Should the dealer decline to givo the outrazeous per- | centage, the horse will, alter a few days, be sent back ick or in such acondition from doses of pare- unabie to stand up, The coachman | then Informs ‘his empioyer that tho horeo was not | worth shed room and that the dealer ts a cheat and ; | cannot be trusted in a trade. This is one of tho | sources of dishonest revenue of the private coachmen of this city, but there are many more. A HORSE DkaLER's STORY. In gathering information of these swindles it was found very difficult to get at some of the ‘bottom | facts"’ il the livery stable keepers and horse and feod deal and harness makers, as well as the horee- | shoers and wheelwrights who all bad dealings with these coachmen, had been informed tnat their names | would not be used. When assored of this they spoke | | freely enough of the blackmail thi id | them by couchmen in private families. One of the | | largest private livery s le keepers in New York stated tw said with a cunning look at the horse dealer. , hot wishing to lose the sale, takes the bint, orse, Which at most is uot worth more than | sent to the stable of the buyer at a price which | his experience as tollows:— | “7 don’t want to talk about this matter publicly | The trouble is that I have todo business with those pri- vate coachmen all the time, I have horses boarding with “Yno that are brought here by them, and I have to make | my bills out for moro money than I actually ro- j ceive, They rob their employers on every- | thin connected with the taking — caro | of forses, One follow brought me two horses | to board, I only charged $50 a month for th d | he took them away to a dirty stable, whero they are | gure vo get sick and maybe die, He pays $60 a mouths there, or is supposed to, because it is on the bill When settling day comes the coachman pays $45 and | the other $15 he pockets. It ts worse with othor liv- | ery stable keepers, One of them, 1 know, bas sold | seventy-five or eighty horses in the Jast twelve months | | to these private coachinen for their employers, and he told me that tke percentage paid to the aifferent | coachmen and stable boys on these horsea—which, ot course, all came out of the pockets of the buyers—was | more than $13,000, The figures, I think, speak for themselves. These coachmen aro also in the habit of | breaking and injuring carriages, so that they may be taken to the wheelwrights or the cari manutactur- ers for repairs and they may levy mail on them in the same way. THE HORSESHOKING SWINDLE. “Look at the way horseshoers have to agree with | these fraudulent private coachmen. Say thata black- | smith wishes to charge only $2 25 a pair for shoeing a | | horse, He wants to be honest and desires nothing | more than bis just dues. Well, the private coachman | comes with a horse to be shod and tells the blacksmith that he must raise bis price from $2 26 a pair to $3 a pair because he wautsa percentage of seventy-five cents a pair for bis own commission. “+ ‘Bat I don't want to do it,’ says the honest black- smith; ‘I don’t want to cheat your boss.’ ¢*All right,’ says the private coachman, ‘I’ll go to | bogs fm in such astreet, He won't kick, I can tell you. }« Then the blacksmith loses his customer, and that settles it, “It is tbe same way at the harness shop, Everything that will ruin or wear out a set of harness is done by the private coacbman, and the harness maker 1s com- | | pelled to Py. him $1 every time he brings @ set to be | mended, You may be sure that they have to be | mended a good many times, Look at the feed men | | who sell oats, feed, bran, corn meal, hay and straw, | They pay to these coachman a percentage on every | weer hi pong enh ery Cage bran or m and ail that percent 08 to the bills | sent to the owners of the horses. It 18 the sami | the way through. I tell you the private coachmen aro the worst thieves among the servants of rich people, | Fico the Regen cloths a clenaing carriages and | bragses, the brushes, combs, sponges, water pail | rakes and shovels, all necessary articles in | | well ordered stable belonging to a private gentleman, are continually missing while under the tender care of these ‘honest’ rere | month; as the accounts are rarely oxnialt of ing goes on and will not be sto; unless these robberies, But ayy my | large society of these private coach. | men, numbering over 600 members, and although, of | course, they are not all dishonest, yet a great number | | of them are daily swindling their employers in the mau- | Ber I bave stated and in other way: ‘THR PRICE OV MAY, PRED, , In relation to the exorbitant prices of hay, feed, oats | and other articles of tood used by, stablemen the ‘bot. tom facts” are easily et at, Let any reader of the Henrato this morning look at the prices of the best | quality of articles enumerated below, which isa good peers oe prenen and ae much as is asked at Sg oye clase store in the city, the food bemg the tin the market.
