FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. “he Stock Market Buoyant—Western Railway Securities Generally Firm. GOLD 109 3-4 A 109 7-8. Fovernment Bonds a Shade Higher—Railway Bonds Strong—Money on Call 5, 8 and 2 Per Cent. Lsctachaewetteienate Wars Steer, Tumspay, Oct. 24-0 P, M. There is an elizir vite which keeps the th of ‘he market up, war or no war, and its influence has Deen felt to-day, despite the absence of any stimulative telegrams from the other side, In fact, these arc rather the other way, for they foreshadow trouble to the strong boxes of Russia and Austria, and predict a monotary crisis on the fiuancia! bourses whero Teaton nl Cossack “most do congregate.” Neither the growls of tho Russian bear nor the screams of the Austrian eagle a sufficient, however, to frighten tho market from its progressive course to higher Ogures, sustained as it is by a Courage that grows out of the — favorable condition of our own surroundings, First and foremost the feeling of operators is undergoing a radical change. ‘The future of trade which has for so long been regarded by them ‘through agiass darkly,” is conceded to do upon the mend. The increased business of the rail- Toads Is an indisputable tact, and becomes more cer- tain as each day brings us noarer the close of lake and eanal navigation, whilo the rate cutting business is re- farded as already having had the beginning of its end, Tho terms and conditions of how and what this latter $8 to be is raid to be lect to the decision of the Central 4 Hudson road a8 arbiter rerum, and we may rest assured that in such safe hands this trast will not suffer from any unjust or unequal discrimination. Moro from these circumstances than from any look- ing seaward to the possible benefits of a European war have the prices of stocks advanced to-day, while tho basis of improvement is a healthier one. Lake Shore, which bas almost engrossed the attention of operatars, was moved up from 603; to 625; under the general reasons above sintod, added tothe special one that the company was certain to pay a3 per cent dividend tn February, But February is some way off, and dividends at that dis- tance are sometimes less material than the spiritual appearances of modern mediums, and frequently take wings to themselves, as canards are wontto do; 80 it is hardly worth while to count the unbatehed duck- Nings now. Still there wero plenty of believers, ot the class not given to put faith in the yarns of a cook and bull order either, and to their ciforts af free pur- thasers, and under tho tutelage of the old Osborn- Mills party, the rise waseffected. If Lake Shore were the Frankenstein of the market, Michigan Central was its shadow and followed its good fortune as a gambler willa run of luck, From 48 to 52, withthe latter price the closing quotation, was the progress of tho fay—a rise which rather surprised [riends andenemies alike. In sympathy there was’ a marked rally in the granger stocks from the lower figures of yesterday, though tho St. Pau! contingent ts inclined to lag be- hind, under tho belief that the showing of earnings will be bad and that the directors are short of tho Stock. ‘ The business in tho coal shares was only to a mod- erate Wegreo, as tho rallrcads pur et simple are rather giving them the cold shoulder, as being outside of the {mfuence which benefits the grain carriers, and from their mixed composition ‘neither flesh, fowl nor good Yed herring.” Of tho miscellaneous shares Western Union still con- Unued with Excelsior’ as its motto, reaching 73 in Bnat sales ond remaining as mysterious as ever. Btocks are not lent so ensily, and money has fits pnd starts of firmness, lending at onc time as high as 6 per cent, but closing at 2 bid, In this there ts somo evidence that tho feciing of the street 8 changing to tho bull side, which, if persevered ip, may at least attract the attention of the coy and reluctant pu! lic.
