THE GOLD AND MONEY MARKETS. The Course of Investment Securities?Govern ment, Slate and Railroad Stoeks. Wall Strkkt, 1 Sunday, June 23. 1X78 J The epeculatlvo tide set ebb at tbe begiuuing of tbo pest weok, aud prices, as a geuerat rule, drifted toward lower figures. How long it will bo beloro tboy reach low water mark lea matter ol conjecture, mid the stock jobbing Jury which holds dally sesslous over the matter havo so tar tailed to agree upon a sat isfactory verdict. Lake Shore appears to bo the knotty point which bullies a decision. Us prominence In me presnut speculation lending a bias to the mar ket to which all other active stocks give way. It has beon most potent in leading ihe market on the down ward course, nod It will undoubtedly bo equally in fluential in leading it upor the upward one, when cir cumstances and the flat of tbe great operators demand It, or, as Is hoped lor in sotnu quarters, the knot which ties Lake Shore to the rest ol the market may be cut In a su miliary and Gorduu lash ion aud the Inrorite bo letl to flout ofl tree from the rust ol tho list ou a spec ulative sea ol Its owu. It la to bo coofcs.ed tbnt a wish of this kind seuine to be iainer to too thought, aud tbal lie impracticability Is as groat u proved to be the Intended severance ol tne Siumeso twins when they were loucd to possess a curious but tusoparable community ol liver, During the past week Lake Slioro controlled speculation, absort>?u It and lelt oniy ihe tag ends to the rest ol the list. Dealings were upon su extensive scale, eo<1 both longs and sburta were bountiful contributors. Tbe bears, tiowsver, had the best ol it, being furnished wilb the strongest argument* uud exhibiting a capacity lor attack wblcb bud grown lormtdable through long rcposo. Cheap lake transportation, the rivulry ol competing roads and tho falling oiT ol gratu freights, It is asserted, nuvo brought nowu earnings to a point which barely moots expenses, and has evou Jeopar dised tho expected dividend, which may bo anything between two per cent and nothing. This latter cir cumstance, wbich la being mado an important ele ment In the dally epeculation. Is expected to be settled on tbe 28lb Inst., uatil which luue it will remain a ? ?good enough Morgan" lor dally trading. The down ward tendency of (be market was somewhat relieved by the abnormal Urmneae ol Western Uuion aud Kock Island. Tbe lelegrapn prop'erty is re ported to be largely increasing Us net earn ings, more from a reduction of expenses that, from an IccrenBe ol custom, and In this U Is likely to bo farther beneflted by the dismissal in Its favor or the Benedict suit, which sought to disrupt the compact with the Atlantic and i'acitlc company, the exlstenco ol which lies mainly helped to the favorable condition ol tbe Western Union buemess. liock Is land baa been strongly held, and advanced from the lowest prices of lue week under tbe pressure of rogue aud uucerlulu promises ol dividends, scrip, stock or casn (or possibly ol promises only), and tbe official announcement that the 40,200 shares ol the ootn puny'a reserved stock had been caucelled. As a lot 1 to tbe abovo lusty apecululives wo are treated to the two rickety fluuetos ol the week, in tbe shape ol Paciflo Mail and Wabash, both of which sloughed off two lo lour points ol their supposititious values. Imperative Ceraauds lor cash, urged by tbe Panama Company in tbo Urst case and litigation and decreased enrnings in tbe second, were 1 tbo occasion lor tbe decline. Leas attention waa paid to tbe grangers, ihough at times thsy were presaod lor sale on tbe statements ol diminished grain receipts at the lake ports. Central and lluduou continued strong and advanced whenever tne bears attempted to cover?a lact which Is strongly suggestive lo them ol Jordan and the road leading thereto. On Friday putative telegrams from Berlin presaged a breaking up of tne Congress; "grim vliagtd war'' scowled afresh, and there was every appearance that lbs po litical altuatlon would have to be cleared, as sugar Is In the process of rvflulng?by blood. In consequence a abarp rally coeued upon the stock market. On Saturday tho news oame all the other way, and pros pacts of peace became better than ever The eOeut upon the market, however, was reaetionary only so far as to produc* an irregular aud leverlsh market, whieb continued during the day and In tbia way finished up the business ol tbe woelc.
