FINMIuE AND COMMERCE. ‘x‘l!AlclAL NEw YORK, January § Evonts of the week in finuncial circles wore interesting only so far as the stock exchange was concerned, The money market work:d closely during the first half of the week, loaning at 1-64@1:16 per diem and interest, finally clos'ng to day at 4 per cent. Foreign exchange was quiet throughout and rates varied slightly, Railroad speculation opened amid great depreasion and there was & marked decline, which, in numerous instances touchel a lower point than for a year or more. Sub- sequently there were many sharp rallies and reactions and speculation turned on the alternately favorable and unfavorable rumors in regard to negotiations for settle- ment of the trunk line difficulties. Fluc. toations at intervals were very wide and Jdealings large, especially whenever the bears rushed in to cover shorts, as they did on several occasivns, MONEY, Money closed at 3 per cent. Exchange closed steady at 4 81@4 82, STATE BONDS, State bonds were irregular on small vol. umes of business in railway mortgages, Transactions were very large in some measures and lower quotations were touch- ed, and near the close, when in sympsthy with the stock market, there was a partial recovery, GOVERNMENTS, Government bonds closed 3@} per cent. higher as follows: 4h's rogistered ..

At this decline prices rather weak, with a downward tendency, advices from all the leading centers were of the same reneral tenor=weak and un- settled, but toward the Iatter part of the week prices picked up and & frmer feeling prevailed. The market for still on the downward turn, ( produ e circles were without animation and the receipts of all classes were light or Je. As o rule the quality of the butter com ngin s not so good an a short time back, and consaquently dees not sell so well, well. Considerable butterine and adultera. tione are being shipped to this market at presemt, and has the effect of lowering the general price of butter on the market, farmers bringing butter to the city and re tailing it direct to the con wmers receive & much better price than can be obtained by dealers. Tn & ng of the adul eration of but er the Chicago Tribune, of a recent date, says the plan or recipe for adultera- pounds of lard, and water and salt to mix. The arithmetic of the thing is: One pound of butter at 24 cents, four pounds of de- " as it is called by the mal sents, cents; total ter and salt before it becomes salable butter, Thus s x pounds are pro- duced at a total cost of 70 cents or a shil- ling per pound—a price so ruinous that it entirely were it sale not restricted by law.
