MONEY AND COMMERCE.
MONETARY.
Wednesday Evening, Nov, G.
Thoro is vory littlo to any about tho aspect of
local finances. Tho banka aro doing a moder
ate amount of business, considering tho gonornl
stagnation of trade, but everything Is on a
small scftlo now compared with what It would bo
tmdor ordinary circumstances. Deposits aro
fimall, and loans aro ovon much loss, in propor
tion, than deposits. Tho banks aro all running
unusually strong in currency. Money continues
tight, and tho prevailing rates in tho open mar
ket aro to 2 per emit por month.
Now York exchange Is still scarce, and, in ad
dition to the city domaud hero, the orders from
tho country for Now York funds aro increasing.
This is a good sign, as it indicates that tho coun
try merchants aro paying their Now York debts.
\Thoro is, however, no reason why tho Northwest
should not pay up. It is richer than auy other
part of tho United Slates, nud holds more cur-
than any other section of tho country.
. Exchange is quotable hero to-day at COo por
1.000 premium,
PROGRESS TOWARD A SPECIE BASIS.
Gold, quoted at 100% to-day, is lower than it
has boon #inco Juno, 1802,-—over eleven years.
The groat decrease in our Imports of foreign
goods and the consequent doorcase in tho de
mand for gold to pay duties, together with tho
large exports of domestic products and tho con
sequent influx of specie from Europe to pay for
our broadstulTe, is rapidly bringing gold down to
par with greenbacks. Notwithstanding tho dis
organized condition of trade and tho collapse of
mercantile credit, tho balance of for
eign trade in the exchange of commod
ities is in our favor, aud instead of
Bonding specie to pay the advance balance
against us, os has always heretofore boon tho
case, tho specie iscoming to us, and, as a nation,
wo are accumulating money. But the' specie
which is being accumulated docs not circulate
as money ; it is a commodity for which thoro is
co employment under tho existing condition of
forced paper legal-tender. Capital In specie
that docs not circulate is locked up, ana tho
pressure to convert it jnto greenbacks that will
circulate enhances tho value of tho latter.
There is reason to boliovo that tho present do
f'roseiou of tbo import trade will continue
brougbout tho winter. It is, therefore, not im
probable that tho decline of gold will continue
until it is near par with greenbacks.
Tbo opportunity that Congress will have this
winter for placing tho business of tho country
oh a specie basis of prices by the repeal of tbo
Logal-Tondor act, will bo such as can scarcely
ever occur again; to let it pass unimproved will
bo'an act of tho most consummate folly. Tho
shrinkage of values, which has always boon tho
thing most feared and deprecated in the
proposals of a change from depreciated currency
prices to gold prices, has already boon experi
enced to a groat extent. What further shrink
age is necessary to bring prices down to gold
values will bo experienced during tho next throe
months anyhow, as tho prico of gold declines.
Tho present winter of 1873 will undoubtedly
witness tho experiment of a now depart
ure in tho financial policy of tho na
tion. Tho financial panic has boon tho
means of increasing tho unpopularity of
the national banking-system, and there will
undoubtedly bo a demand made upon Congress
to abolish tho banks and issue greenbacks, not
only in place of their notes, but to a greater
extent in tbo purchase of bonds. Tho great
argument in favor of this is that it will savo tho
'520,000,000 of Interest on tho bonds. A con
clusive argument against this would bo that in
that case tho Government would have between
$700,000,000 and $800,000,000 of demand notes
outstanding, and that on this amount thoro
would bo no hope of resumption of specie pay
ments. This would ho foreseen, and the gold
value of greenbacks would depreciate so
that all purchases of bonds, mado with a viow to
getting greenbacks into circulation, would havo
to be mado at a high premium in currency for the
bonds. Tho proposed saving of $20,001),000 of
interest would bo much inoro than offset by the
loss in tho premium paid for thorn in green
backs.
Thus, it will bo soon that wo probably stand
on tbo eve of groat changes in our financial and
currency system, and that thoso changes will
lead either to further inflation, and consequent
depreciation of tho currency, or will place tho
business of tho country on a sound basis of
specie prices.
Those who aro opposed to inflation, and yot
see no way to restore confidence, seem to con
centrate their attention on tho problem of
whether tho Government can resume specie
payments. There is, however no reason why
tho Government should actually resume at alt.
If (ho Logal-Toudor act is repealed, and banking
mado free, tho banks will furnish all the cur
rency the people can use. All tho Government
need do is to find its greenbacks and got them
out of tho way.
A COOL PROPOSITION.
The First National Bank of Washington woe, it
will bo remembered, a redeeming agent for tho
mutilated currency of a great number of Nation
al Banks throughout tho country, and in this
quasi-official character held deposits from sev
eral hundred Notional Bauks in all parts of tho
United States. These deposits of tho National
Banks averaged about $1,500 each, and, in the
aggregate, constituted the groat bulk of the do
posits in Jay Cooke's Washington batik. Messrs.
Jay Cooke «k Co. now issue a circu
lar to all those creditor National Bauks,
proposing to pay their claims as follows, viz;
60 per cent in cash and GO per cent in Northern
F&cillc Railroad bonds at- 85 cents on tho dollar,
provided tho said creditor banks will transfer
the collection of their claims to tho proposed
trustee of Jay Cooke A Co. Considering that
tho Northern Pacific bonds aro nearly worthless,
and that oven the 50 per cent in cash is only
provided for in a very indefinite way on the
surrender of all authority to prosecute t tho
claim legally, this is a decidedly cool and impu
dent proposition.

Withdrawn from storo yesterday for city con
sumption: 4,439 bu wheat; 8,110 bu corn; 1,193
bu oats; 803 bu ryo; 3,990 bu barley.
The following grain has boon inspected into
store this morning* up to 10 o’clock: 218 cars
wheat; 201 cars corn ; 12,200 bu high mixed do,
and 23,045 bu No. 2do by canal; 43 cars oats;
3,800 bu No. 2do by canal; 6 cars rye: 84 oars
barl oy. Total (505 cars), 210,000 bu.
A member of tbo Board of Trade found timo
enough to-dny to forgot the events of yesterday,
and relate his experience last week with somo
barreled property that ho received from abroad,
through a bonded warehouse in Chicago. Ho
was charged 120 dockage ; storage first;*inonth
10c, and storage second month would havo boon
8c; total, 300 por brl. • Tbo charges of tho Chi
cago Bock Company, if tho property had boon
confided to their keeping, would have been :
dockage, 0; first mouth's storage, Co; second
month’s So; total, 9c, against SOo. Of course
this has nothing whatever to do with duties on
tho importation.
A parcel of wheat was contracted for to-day,
to bo sent direct from Chicago to Liverpool by
rail and ocean-stoamor, at SI.OO in gold per 100
lbs, or COo in gold por bu.
In reference to tho cost of sending grain to
Liverpool, and tho profit on tbo operation, wo
havo boon presented by a prominent operator
with tho following figures:
Selling prico of No. 2 Chicago spring, iu Liv
erpool, Nov. 4, by cable, was lla Gu sterling por
100 ibs, which, with exchange in Now York
(Nov. 3) at 1049£, is equal to $2,667 per cental,
or $1.6062 por bu of CO lbs.
Oct. 81, the freight from Now York was 14d,
and 5a primage, oquul to 29.40 per bu.
Atlantic insurance, dock, town-dues, Ac., por
terage, weighing, and delivery, quay
rent, interest, with 3 months’ discount on sales,
and commissions, equals 10.Cc.
Total chargee, 400 in gold, giving tho valuo on
board in Now York as $1.20G2 perlm in gold, or
($1.07%) $1.29% in currency.
Through rate by stoaraor and sail to Now York,
800 ; storage hero, commissions in Now York,
and putting on board, 70. Total, 870 ; making
tho actual value here, as gauged by tho price in
Liverpool, equal to 92%0 per bu.
Tho loading produce markets wero rather quiet
to-day, and grain was weak all round, with tho
single exception of rye. The general fooling in
breadatiiffs was one of heaviness, though somo
expectations wore fanned that there would ho an
advance iu grain used for distilling and malting
purposes, owing to tho increased demand result
ing from the elections in this city yesterday.
Tho shipping movement was dull, nnd'oporatofs
seemed inclined to expect heaviness, as a conse
quence of steady increasing stocks and a
tight money market, considerable difficulty
being experienced in raising money
with which to carry grain. Shippers
are loss and less disposed to operate with each
succeeding day, nud Eastern orders are few.
Tho speculative element is not strong enough to
causo animation, as that is not particularly
Hush of money; and hence tho tendency is
downward, Tho receipts of grain aro not so
large as heretofore, but they aro in excess of tho
current demand.

Dry goods continue quiet, the demand still
being confined to small orders, and mainly con*
torod in the more staple articles. The reduction
in prices recently noted is expected to stimulate
trade, aud the fact that stocks aro moderate and
that production is being curtailed, it is thought,
will operate to prevent any further material
shrinkage of sales, In the market for staple
and fauov groceries there wore no now develop
ments. There is a continued absence of any
special activity in any department, and, while
values wore nominally unchanged, it must
ho confessed that the prevalent fooling
among jobbers was by no means buoyant.
While prices of tho staples (coffees excepted)
are considered really low, buyers manifest no
inclination to “stock up,” orders in most in
stances being restricted to auoh amounts as are
doomed requisite to moot immediate require
ments, Tho butter and choose market wore un
changed in those general features.* Good goods
wore in fair request and commanded veiw full
prices, but anything not prime must soil, if at
all. at something or a concession. Coal remains
dull at tho lato decline in prices, or at 8l),0d for
Erie and Walnut Hill; $8.50 for Hooking Valley:
and at SO,OO for Wilmington. Thoro was a mod
el at o amount of trading in dried fruits at un
changod and generally linn prices. Fish remain
dull and easy. Nothing now was noted in tho
pig iron, paints, and tobacco markets, trade rul
ing slack all around at easy but nominally un
changed prices. Oils sold to a liberal aggregate
at for carbon? at 70@780 for extra
winter lard; at 08c@$1.03 for liusood: aud at
830 for turpentine.
The demand for lumber at tho yards continues
moderate. Several cargoes arrived at the sale
docks this morning, and a few local buyers
made their appearance, but holders were gener
ally refusing to soli unless at a slight advance,
jrhioh buyers Vforo no* procured to give. Metals

ovdor demand, and although no Bpooial degree of
firnmcfiß Is exhibited in either department,
prices wove regarded as being very low, and aro
well maintained, except now and than, under
unusual circumstances. Tho demand fdr brfok,

Tho local trade aro •buying lightly, but thd mar
kets aro, generally .speaking, quiet ami easy,
though not quotaluy' lower. Wool was iuactivo
and nominal. Seeds wore quiet and easy. Green
apples wore less active nud scarcely as firm.
Poultry and gamo wore dull,with largo offerings;
lower prices wore generally accepted. i
llignwinoii wero: Inactive during tho r gular
session, aud easier. A sale was reported boforo
’Change of 100 brls at 88e, but on tho Hoar thoro
was no demand, and at tho close tho markot was
nominal nt bid, nud 880 naked. This fall
ing off was fiT sympathywith Now York, which
was quoted at 910, though actlvo at tlio'decline.
Lake freights wore loss active, though in fair
demand at yesterday's, rates, nt 7o for com aud
8c for wheat, both by sail, to Buffalo. Through
rates to Now York, by steamer and rail, wore
quoted ot'Boo per bu for wheat, and 28>£c for
corn. All-rail freights at 030 por bu oii wheat.
A total of .eleven charters was reported, which
will carry oat 57,000 bu wheat; 100,000 bu com,
and 18,000 bu oats.
Provisions wore rather more active, and aver
aged a shade easier, in sympathy with a further
weakening in tho prices of live bogs reported 1
from tho Block Yards. Moss pork was in fair do-'
mand, aud steady on now, but old moss weak
ened down to now quotations. Lard was moder
ately active, but “ the turn cheaper,". as tiro
English reporters would say. Moats wore in
much bettor request, but buyers demanded a*
further concession of }io por lb, and grefeu
moats wore marked down accordingly, while
boxed lots wore unchanged. An increase in
tho number of packers at work was reported to
day, and others will bo in full blast by tho
close of tho week, tho quantity of orders for
stuff having hitherto boon kept out of the field.

'Wheat was dull and full?* lo lower, with a
light demand for either cash lots or options,
though the aggregate of reported sales slightly
exceeded those of Yesterday. Liverpool was
quoted unchanged ana Now York firm, but pri
vate advices from the latter point wore rather
discouraging to holders. Still the market was
kept up pretty well till near 1 o’clock, when It
wont down by tho ran. Shippers took hold to a
moderate extent early in ' tho sosson, but did not
continue long enough to take up all tho cash
offerings, which were in excels of the demand
throughout. The option department was steadi
ly dull for a long time, as the boars
seemed disinclined to soil any further,
and tho bulls wore equally averse to
dipping in more deeply than they wore already;
aud.towards tho close some of tho latter grow
tireddf carrying, and began to sell-out. Seller
December' opened at $1.00%, and declined to
99%0 at the close. Seller the month sold, at
99%c@1,00%, dosing at tho inside. Cash No. 2
spring sold at about the same range, and North
western do closed with no preference in price,
though it had sold early at $1.02. Northwestern
No'. 1 spring, in tho Northwestern Elevator,
closed nominally at $1.03@1.04: do in other

Com was loss active, and quite weak, declin
ing %o under a rather heavy fooling through
out, which induced a weakening in Now York at
the close. Liverpool was quoted a shade easier.
Tho shippers took hold to a moderate extent,
but sluggishly. Tho short interest filled in
rather liberally at times, making tho option de
partment spasmodically active, but tboro was no
real life in tho trade, the offerings being in ex
cess of tho demand, though the receipts are di
minishing in volume. Boiler tho month, or reg
ular No. 2, opened at 85%0, advanced to 35% c,
and recoded lo 84%0, clotting at Hso. Boiler De

Oats were more active, but very weak, being
at one time almost panicky. Tho market fell off
fully %o from tho lowest figures of yesterday,
and < seemed as if It would have dropped oven
further hut for tho' fact that holders found it
impossible to sell, and loft off trying to find pur
chasers. The continued absence of a shipping
demand anything like equal to the receipts, with
tho weakness in wheat.and porn, was the cause
of tho drop. Seller the month opened at 27%0,
and 'closed weak at 270; with cash No. 2 nomi
nal at the same figure, though tho lowest sale
was 27%0. Seller December sold at 20%(«)29o.

24@21%0. Cash sales were reported of 30,000

Bye was very quiet, but steady at the im
provement noted yesterday, being the only
cereal that hold its own amid tho general weak
ness. The receipts continue so light, and the
stock is so small, that there is no weight to
force it down. Sales wore limited to 2,000 bu
No. 2at 010. Rejected was nominal at 67c.
Barley was dull ami weak, but not quotably
lower. There was quite a hurrah early,. under
tho anticipation of a stimulus to tho trade in
consequence of tho result of tho election: and
several parties thought that an advance of Sopor
bu could bo counted upon as. certain. One
operator bid $1.40 for 25,000 bu of No. 2, but

WHEAT PROSPECTS.
The Philadelphia Ledger says >
All statistical information on tho subject oj tho wheat
products of tho world point to tho Important foot that
tho United States Is tho only country able to supply tho
unprecedented demand for wheat this year In nearly
all European countries. Tho returns of tho Imports
to Great Britain to Sept. SO show that tho
gross valao of tho Imports of wheat for nine months Is
about $90,000,000, of which tho United States supplied
worth. .The proportion of wheat received
from Russia has fallen from 13,000,000 to 7,000,000.
hundred weights, os compared with 1872, while that
received from the United States has Inorcscd from
6,000,000 to 13,000,000 hundred weights. Wheat is
usually exported from tho north of Prance, but this 1 ,
year it will havo to bo imported, and tho importations
of tbo south of Prance will bo largely increased. Ger
many, Hungary, and Southern Russia arc also de
ficient in their crops, ond that European dealers havo
accepted tho returns as thoroughly reliable, may bo
Judged from tho fact that their exports from New
York during tho fourteen days ending Oct. 0 wero
3.608,439 bushels, on amount unparalleled In tho his
tory of that port. On tho other band, tho receipts of
wheat at Milwaukee and Ohicago havo been largely in
creased, tho receipts of wheat at tho former place of
the present crop being 8,666,770 bushels, against 6,044,-
803 bushels for tho same period m 1872.

’ CATTLE—There was no life lu the cuttle trade. Ad
vices from the East wore gloomy, and shippers wore
ogaln'delerred from operating beyond filling the most
urgent orders, so that, although the offerings of deslr*
able shipping grades wore meagre, they more than
equaled the wants of buyerd, Lumbers took only a
few lots, the extreme dullness of the retail moat trade
causing a diminished demand from that quarter.
Htock iitcors wore inquired for to a limited extent at
12,6003.60 fur poor to good lots. The day’s sales were
at $1.0003.60 for poor to prtmo Texans ; at 12.000t3.50
for inferior to good butchers' stock; and at $4.00®5,40

IloQß—The course of the bog market Was much the
same as on yesterday, viz: opening quiet and easy,
but becoming more active as the day advanced, and
cloning a trifle firmer. The largo receipts tended to
make buyers cautious, but did not prevent them from
buying on a liberal scale, and. after all wants were
supplied, a comparatively small number rotnklned in
the pons unsold. In addition to the demand for ship*
ment, a half-dozen or more packers were engaged,
and between tbo two somewhere In the neighborhood
of 20,000 head wore taken, at $8.6003.05 for common
to good packers' grades; at $8.6008.75 fop heavy hogs
for shipment, and at $3.0003.80 for light. The follow
