NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, J JANUARY 25, 1877.-TRIPLE SHEET. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. The Stock Market Irregular and Fe- verish on Lower Prices. GOLD 1061-4 A 106. Money on Call 5 and 6 Per Cent—Government Ponds Active and Firm—Railway = - Mortgages Steady. i Wat. aa Wrongspay, Jan, 24—0 P. ‘The stock market has swung back upon itself ee a boomerang, Not that anybody has been hi or severely hurt, but that there is a wide disappointment over the fact that so fair a speculation should bave re- celved so yntimely acheck The decline was spread over the whole jist and extended from 4 to 2 per cent, the strongest favorites manifesting as little power to resist as their humbier and less active neighbors, When the Cslvornia party in Western Union reached the ond of their tether, so far purebasing power went, and the bears of weakly constitution had becn disposed of, thore resulted a repetition of the old story ota box full of stock, but a scarcity of customers. Attempts to realizo were met by slippery figures, that Bid away like a will o’ the wisp on attempting to grasp them, and there is no knowing Into what slougi of despond the pool might not have been led had not a judicious cry of ‘halt’? stopped all further effort for the time being. Hereupon, it appears, a change of tactics was re- solved upon to the extent of abandoning Western Uaion and ot marching the ferees into Lake Shore. How thoroughly the former stock has been evacuated is shown by a comparison of transactions which footed up 91,000 shares on Monday and only 18,000 to-day, Horse, toot and dragoons were carried over to the new battle ground, and yesterday and to-day we have been treated to some lively skirmishing, which ran up deal- ings to some 54,000 shares for this morving’s work alone, That the action has been entirely satisfactory to the bull party is doubtful, particularly if we take the day’s prices as a criterion. Official figures whieh, like tho Father of bis Coun- try, are proverbially truthful, record quotations as ranging from 58, as the highest point yesterday, to 6674, the Jowest and final one of the day, and this, too, im despite of the earnest efforts of the pool, who are sald to pave acquired from 25,000 to 30,000 shares, mostly at the topmost limit, Strong antagonism was met with from more than one quarter, The Twenty-third street bears are again in the fleld cap a pie, and make a sturdy resistance to the advance by free sales of short stock; the Ashta- bula accident is assuming serious proportions and tbreatens to develop litigation which may mulct the company (in the opinion of experts) to the tune of a million or so of dollars, while the snow blockado will sbow a disastrous depreciation in eurnings when the iast lour weeks’ business comes to be posted up. Of course, with the underpinning of the market badly shaken, as in the case of these two stocks, it is # natural cousgquence that the rest of the list should eulfer also, in nearly every case was this true, though in a moderate degree, The St Paul properties were exceptionally affected by further reports of diminished business, the earnings for the third week of Januaty being but $27,055 as against $78,000 for the sume week of last year, while the placing of seller 60 options at a small concession from the cash price evinces an ex- pectation of a further decline, » The coul sales by the Delaware and Lackawanna and Pennsylvania companies were productive of very un- satisfactory returns a8 regards prices, and had a de- pressing efiect upon the market values of all the an- thracite stocks. Added to this wero renewed rumors of financial difficulties, yaguo iu form and not alto- gether reliable, but sufficiently potent to produce an injurious effect. Consequently there occurred a sharp decline early inthe day, which, however, was some- what recovered from before the close. Gold has again commenced to sag, as under all cir- cumstances it scems natural for it to do, and closed at 106 bid, though carrying rates were easier at 434 to 6 per cent. : ‘What the course of the share market is to be for the rest of the week is aifficult to foresee, The set back of prices seems rather to be due toa desire of realizing secured profits than to any tear of the future, and the probability is that when this bas been achieved we shall be treated to avother swing upward, should the $reat operators see tit, THR SALES TO-DAY were as follows:—New York Central and Hudson, 1,088; Erie, 4,200; Lake Shore, 64,200; Cieveland and Pittsburg, 100; Northwestern, 100; Northwestern pre- ferred, 1,200; Rock Island, 1,300; Pacific Mail, 11,490; 8t.
