——<$<$<$$<——_—_—— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, Review of the Week—The Stock Market Ac- tive and Withont Much Change. BOE ates THE GOLD AND MONEY MARKETS, Investment Securities—Government, State and Railroad Bonds. —_ + — WALL Street, } Sunpay, Oct. 14, 1877. The week just passed characterized by the fresh efforts put forth by the bull party to rescue the mar. ket from the rut iu which 1t bas been mired tor some timo back and to send it upon the upward turn again. With all the digging and delving on the part of the Breat speculators tho crop of stocks thereby accu- mulated hus not met with a ready market and some step was necossary to dissipate the prevailing apathy, Accordingly on Monday there was a genoral flourish of trumpets at the opening, with the Vanderbilt roads employed as jeading instruments. Before the close of business, however, the market grew out of breath, and the fanfare of the morning, which had heralded the way to higher prices, subsided into the sbrill quaver oftho merest penny whistle, In other words, prices failed to hold and fell off at the eud to the lowest point of the day. Monday’s experiment having resulted the reverse of satisfactory, op Tuesday the attempt was mado to galvanize the market by applying the battery to Michigan Central and Western Union; to the first because tt was thought that Mr, Sage had got into a snarl with bis privileges aud was largely short of tho stock, andto the second because there was a faint chince that the Western Union directors at their meeting might do something toward a revi- sion of their reserved shares. It was moreover believed that Mr. Gould’s aspira- Sons to asoat in the direction (if he ever entertained such an idea) would prove fallacious, and this also Added to the strength of the stock. It afterward turned out that the subject of a stock dividend was not even mentioned at the meeting, and that Mr. Gould had followed like @ lamb in the tracks of the other directors and voted his proxies square for the regular ticket. The result was nevertheless an unfortunate one for such as had pinned their hopes upon 90 as a convenient point to sell out at, for the price fell back from 84 to 81 nd left the big figures further off than ever, Things did not run more smootbly in other directions than they did in Western Union. The Ponnsylvania Coal Company, which has hith- erto been a follower rather thana leader in framing Circalar prices for coal and is wealthy enough to be in- Gependent of evorybody, rather astonished tho trade as wellasthe stock market by advertisicg a schedule of rates less by fifty cents per ton than those lately adopted by the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Company. A slongbing off of the high figures which have been hanging about the coal s like a loose and coun- terfeit skin followed as a matter of course, and prices tended downward and remained foverish for the rest ofthe week, In railway matters rumor blew both hot and cold, with the warm breath of favorable reports predominating, A slight hitch occasioned by some Tecalcitration on the part of the Grand Trunk of Can- ada threatened to jeopardize fora moment the new freight compact, but tho difficulty has been arranged and tho higbor rates have gone into effect One of the characteristics of the week’s speculation lay inafresb spurt of some of the smaller fancies, Erie was chief among these, with transactions run- Bing up to large dimensions, The movement is stated to be based upon the difference between the home and London prices, which has offered @ skinfint turn through selling on the former and buying on the latter market. Adecision in the courts in regard to tho rolative standing of the Quicksilver preferred shares, which rather tricked the street, and some apparcotly sum- mary proceedings at the Ohio and Mississippi election for directors, which New York stockholders say have tricked them, will sum up the salient events of the week, Money on call vibrated between 3 and 7 per cent, but without stringency, and thus far the antici- pated pinch shows no throatening front, TRANSACTIONS OF THE WERK. ‘The following table represents the opening, highest and lowest sales, reguiar way, of the principal stocks during the past weok, together with the number of ehares dealt In: No, Open.

She said her name was Kate Randolph, and that she lived at No, 428 Kast Eleventh strect, The warrant was granted and piaced inthe hands of Officer Kelly, of the Court squad, Between eleven and twelve o’clock Saturday night this officer captured bis man in the Volks Garden, in the Bowery, and bad him locked up iu the Tenth precinct station Louse for the night Yesterday morning the prisover, who is a very respectabic looking man about fifty years of age, was fortually arraigued betore the bur ‘ol justice, The complainant was ther e propria persone, with @ determined look on her face that evidently meant mischief jor Richard Kaward, Before \he complaint was taken, however, the Clerk, William Heiley, askod Ler when she had received any money {rom ber husband. ‘About two weeks ago,’ she replied, “he gave mo $150.”” The Judge overheard the answor and immediately called Kate betore him. “He gave you $150 two weeks ago, and you had the surance to come to ine a few days afterward and your that be left you without means of support?” said the Judge, “Well, he did not leave mo without support ex- actly, but be has been spending bis money on other women, aud I want it stopped ; that’s all,” “Mr Randolvh, you are discharged,” was the answer of the Court, Mr. Randolph thanked the magistrate and made his way a8 quickly as possible tbrough the crowded room to the street, He had just piented tis f the pavement outside when bis accuser, who had fol- jowed close at his heels, made a sudden rush for him, snatebed the bat off his head, and, diving ber hands down into the lining, pulled’ out a roll of bills, She then threw tho hat in his taco aud attempted to runaway.

The strike of the cigarmakers of this city and vicinity began about seven weeks ago. It was for some days confined to one or two manufactories, but it now reaches large proportions, It is est:mated that there are {rom twenty thousand to twenty-two thou- sand cigarmakers in New York, Brooklyn ana Jorsey City and that 10,000 of those are now on strike. Yes- terday a large mase meeting of the strikers and those who are in sympathy with them was held at Germania Hail, Bowery. ‘Tho meeting lasted trom two o'clock to half-past five, and daring that time it was thought that nearly five thousand persons visited the bali, Many will be surprised to learn that more than one- half of the cigarmakers of this city are women and girls, and probably about five hundred of those wero present at the mass meeting yesterday. There wero speeches in English, German and Bohemian. At ono time two meetings were in progress, a temporary platform having been erected in the east wing of the great hai.
