MONEY AND THE MARKETS. ' Office or thk Indianapolis Sentinel, Tuesday Evening, May 30, 1876. There have been no developments In local financial affairs during the week ending this evening requiring extended comment. The statement of the six national banks of thla city, as made to the comptroller of the currency, is a highly satisfactory exhibit of financial affair?. They have a capital amounting to 12,500,00", and on the 12th Inst, the aggregate assests were 13,036.062 37 with a surplus and other undivided profits, amounting, In the aggregate, to 8946,709.31. These figures indicate pretty clearly that banklng affairs in this city are managed with consummate ability and prudence. Tbo demand lor money is chiefly from the mercantile community and the manufacturing establishments, and the ruling rate of interest Is maintained at 10 per cent., thoug-n for strictly giltedged paper on ehort time paper could te placed at a lower rate of Interest. Private capitalists are enabled to invest In real estate paper and other descriptions, which brokers offer in the outside market at from 1M2 per cent, a month; occasional transactions are reported as low as t per cent, and as high as 3 per cent a month. Eastern exchange Is about equal to the demand and the rate between banks is par. County batks are suppled at 50 cents per 11,000 premium, and counter sales are made at 1-109 premium. City orders have gone down to J cents on the tfoliar and are reported dull. INDIANAPOLIS CLE A KINO HOUSE.

On the London Btock Exchange and on every continental bourse, securities were weak and lower, and the general feeling verged on panic. In London It was said that the Rothschilds were still selling consols; a report which was made creditable by a further decline of In their price. The immediate effect here was to advance gold to 19 Sterling exchange. It havlngbeen an offday.wasdu 1, with demand firm at 4.84.90:tbe nominal rates ior both Classes closing at 4M and The ultimate effect of a war In Europe between tHe rat powers would be to bene

fit this country. At the lock Fxchan? speculation was anvcted by rumors roncefning the health of Commodore Vanderbilt the foreign news apprarlng to have ' it tie effect, aud tt a role prices were lower than ytsterday. Money opened at S(i3 pr cent, for call loans, advanced at the Stock Excaangoto per cent, and closed at per cent. Prime mercantile paper sold at Jper rent, with the quotation 4s per eent. The biDl statement showed a further large gain in urplas reserve; that having been raised to tlt.iU.ii: Tbls sain In reserve was mainly due to the ritte or 1,Ö O.tuo in the legal tender average; this In turn having been caused by th-flow o: currency to this center usual at this season, and by the withdrawal of currency from the treasury by means of payment of Alabama claim drafts made several weeks ago but only recently presenud. Tnespecle average is a falling one. The reduction In loans reflects the dullness of trade. NXW TOBK MOW BT AND BTOCK MARKET. Naw York, Monday, May 9. Money easy at 2(3 per cent. Prime mercantile paper 46 per cent. Custom receipts, 1518,000. Assistant Treasurer disbursed 1183,000. Clearing , S47,C00,(XO. Produce exports for the week, 12,221,000. ölerllng exchange dull, at 14 18 for 60 days and Si 90 for sight. Uold opened at 113, and closed atll2, against nzyt Saturday. Rates paid for carrying were 1 to 3 per cent. Rates paid for borrowing were flat. The decline was due to the more peaceful tone of the European dispatches, and reports that there were large foreign orders for grain here. Governments closed steady. Railroad bonds dull. State securities quiet. The stock market declined at the opening on the reduction of passenger fares to the West, but soon became strong, and advanced y9oy per cent, on rumors that the reduction in fares was made to precipitate a settlement of the railroad war. As the day wore along the market became dull, and an improvement was partially lost except in Pacific Mall, which closed strong at the highest price of the day. Transactions on Stock Exchange to-day aggregated 9S.00U shares, of which 12,000 were Paclno Mail, 18.00J Western Union, O.ooo 8U Paul, 6,uou Erie, 40,0.0 Lake Bhore, and S,o00 Michigan Central.

The currents of trade are moving sluggishly, and during the past week the volume of trade has not been large in any department. CRT O00DS. Merchants report limited sales. Prices, however, are essentially unchanged, and the opinion prevails thst values for domestlo g-wds have touched bottom, and that an early reaction is more than probable. This opinion is predicated In a large measure upon the large sale recently made in New York by tie autlon house of Field, Morris, Fennerdk Co., which was in every respect successful. The New York Evening Post says: The number of packages sold was 11,500; the amount advertised to be sold was 6,50, and, as was the case at tbe great sale on Tuesday, through the auction bouse of Towns?nd, Montan 1 4 Co, suoh was the demand that a very large amount of goods were sold which have not yet been finished at the mills. The prices obtained yesterday averaged about l'J per cent, below the nominal quotatlans In this market before the great auction sales this week, out at which nominal quotations even com paratively small amounts of goods could not be moved. It is, In considering the unprecedented sale of domestie goods at auction this week (ihey having aggregated nearly twentyflve'bousand pacttagt-e). to be borne In mind that When these goods were made cotton was about three cents per pound hither thanltis now At the present cost of cotton these goods can be profitably manufactured at tbe prices which it is demonstrated an almost unllmitel amount of them will command when offered to tbe trade of the country under circumstances most advantageous for tbe buyers. The auction sales cf this week, therefore, not uerely make a bottom for tbe market and rraicken buslnes. but give encouragement 10 the capital as weil as the labor so extensively employed In cotton manufactures. The great success of thete auction sales ralsti tbe question whether tbe methods which have so long been In use by manufetturers for the distribution of their goods can not be improved by regularly holding trade saiea throuah the auction houses at staWd times during the year. The entire trade of tbe country la represented at these sales, and the goods pass directly (and In amounts which so distribute credits as to make them as near safe as possible) Into tbe hands of dealers who have a placsfor tbe goods, wbo know their home markets thoroughly and the wants of It. With tbe auction method of distri out Ion there Is no congestion of goods snd, as said, credits are distributed. These sales or domestics are exceptional, the great bulk of auction sales being of imported fabrics. It is safe to say that one-fifth and possibly onefourth of all the foreign dry goods imported this year have been sold through tbe auction rooms, which fact, as well as tbe sales of domestics this week, shows to our manufacturers the efficiency of tbe auction system as a means of distributing merchandise. GB0CKSJX9. The fade In this department li represented as quiet, though a fair demand for goods Is reported, and prices have undergone but little change since the date of o.r last weekly review of the market. If anything, coffees are ft shade lower. Bagarn are ibteidy, Jj other

regards the msrket requires no comments whatever. , WOOL, Recepts are beginning to assume more Import .Doe, but owing to tbe demoralisation of Eastern markets, prices are weak and declining: our quotations fairly represent the mar ket here. - In regard to the Boston market tbe Journal of Commerce of that city aayi: With the exception of California there bas been a continued decline In prices, as our quotations will show. The probabilities are there have been about two million pounds ot tbe new California clip sold In this market, and tbe impression among some of the largest manufacturer seems to be that the prices for best qua'illes of California are at or near bottom; at any rate, large quantities are arriving, and manufacturers are making free selections from tbe best grades. Old fleeces of floe wools are scarce; the ttock Is light and demand limited. Kentucky combing wools are beginning to arrive, and are held by some parties at 42c for choice lots. Combing fleece, wasned, 4550c; medium delaines 4445c ; fine delaines 40.0 42a. Combing pulled, medium to coarse, 417c. Unwashed fleece combing sells at 3'i37c for Western, and 37(4.'c tor Kentucky good to cholc. Kentucky clothing, UDwathed, 27g SOc; Western unwashed fine, 2225o; medium 2537c.

GRAIN. Advices from Chicago during the week have given intelligence of great excitement there in wheat, and as eompared with two weeks ago prices have advanced fully 8 cents petbushel. But to-day the dispatches Indicate that the upward flight has been arrested, and the speculation mania has In a measure sub sided. This market has not responded to the excitement In Chicago and prices, while they are steady, have not been specially disturbed Corn Is also lower, though dealers have been able to sell all that bas arrived, and stocks In elevator at this writing are reduced to a pretty low point. Oats are dull, and we have to tales of Importance to chronicle. Tbe New York Commercial Bulletin refers to the breadstuff market ss follows: Through the week now closing the breadstuff movemenla In our market bave been Dnuaualiy brisk as a rule, stimulated by tbe export call for supplies ot wheat, especially spriDg gratfe?, and cm, and to a fair extent, of suitable qualities of flour. Tbe Inquiry from buyers tor the United Kingdom has notably increased. The demand from continental sources, though of less urgency than 1 brougo several weeks preceding, has nevertheless been of very refpectable magnitude. Purchases of flour and meal for the West Indies and the Province, and of flour for South mcrica, have also been up to fair aggregate. Home trade operations' have been rather more liberal, and some speculative dealings have been noted, this feature developing most prominently In oats. An additional lot of oats (5,000 bushels) has been taken for France, asalready reported. Values in most ln-tncea bave been very fairly supported, though toe later transactions in corn Indicated material depression. Ocean freights wereatrengthened decidedly toward the ciose by the pressure lor accommodation from the .breadstuff Interest, and this circumstance worked against the outward movement. PROVISIONS, ranch of trade prices have had a downward tendency for some time past, and notwithstanding the fact that foreign exports have been large with a fair consumption de mand. Values steadhy weaken and holders teem quite unable to solve the problem or make any satisfactory calculations with re gard to the near future. The New York Commercial Bulletin of Monday reviews the provision market for the week ending 27th lest., as follows: The characteristic features: of tbe mar ket for tbe hog product since our last review have been a slow, cautious ana moderate hoTirtllnu nf actual supclles. increased arrivals of bogs at the West and a decided downward tendency Ol vaiue. tn a speculative way, there have been some powerful manipulations, notably w on lard, accompanied by considerable excitement, almost of a panicky nature, under tbe serious break on prices, with a gen eral upsetting of calculations among tbe " culls and a free unloading of stock, which had become altogether too weighty to carry under the accumulation or adverse circum stances. Certain large amounts, which have for some time been claimed as stoc a certain to go out ss soon as It could be reached ani freight-room obtained, has been thrown overboard whenever an opportunity- occurred, or extended Into later months in order to give owners time to turn around. Many of tbe trade seem to have become dnmfounded tver the apparent apathy of the foreign demand under the shrinkage on cost, and are inclined to doubt the accuracy of tbe information which led them to believe that any Important portion of onr product wi:l be wanted abroad. Aside, however, from tbe natuial tendency of all buyers to hold off on a declining market, and especially to tbose wbo work on discretionary orders, there bas evidently been too much expected "all at once." Every Indication at hand still points to a greater or less paucity of supplies in Europe with an absolute dearth of lard In many sections, while shippers bave no hesitation In admitting that In addition to fair orders already at band, they are assured of being called upon for further amounts when they are wanted. The italicised words, however, te.lthe whole story and covtr a point too generally overlooked. Consumers throughout the entire world have eradnallr thrown aide all speculative ten dencies and are now operating almost solely upon the bisls of well known and positive wants, showing an absolute impregnability o every assault Intended as an Inducement for them to nanaie supplies in excess 01 tntir anility to distribute to Immediate, advantage. Cost, therefore, b comes a secondary consideration, for no matter whether prices be high or low, buyers do net come forward until they have exhausted old slocks and have thoroughly calculated upon tbe disposition of such fresh amounts as they may conclude to handle. This Is no theory, but an established fact which has already worked itself out on many of our leading articles of merchandise. Speculative manipulations and combinations can, therefore, place little reliance upon the legitimate demand as a source of relief beyond such amounts as current consumption may re quire; and if stocks carrld by banks, trust companies, etc.. oecome Duraensome ana risky, the natural results must follow tbe unloading process. One failure has taken place during the week, bat not of a serious character. In the various departments of trade, such as boots and ahoes, hats and caps, notions, mil linery, hardware, Iron, etc., stocks are all that could be desired, and buyers who visit this market find no necessity for going elsewhere for stocks,' as Indianapolis merchants are able to raake terms as satisfactory as those hi any other market East or West. ' ' . on 'chawqk. There was a fa'.r attendance on 'Change to day, but little was done. Grain dealers were offering considerable corn and wheat, but transactions were unimportant and the tone of the market wai weak. " ' - ,." THK LOUISVUIX FAILURES, ' reported by telegraph this morning, excited much comment, as the parties who have gone under were well known here. A private dispatch, to a prominent provision broker gives

as the reason of tbe failures of the provision firms, outside speculation in future In cotton

and provisions, and says other provision Arms are not affected, and that stocks of provisions are not being pushed. LIVERPOOL DISPATCH OI 'CHANGS. The 11 A. m.
