From the Stock Circular of Associated Brokers of the 8. F. Stock & Exchange Board.
San Francisco, Sarurpay Mornine, Sept..15th, 1866.
The Money Market, since our last reference, has manifested a considerable change for the hetter, and more ease ie epparent. The decreased amount of treasure sent forward to the East hy the steamer
of the 10th—only some $700,000—to some extent accounts for the
stringency of the market et that date. Money can now he had in
Bank, on good first class paper, at L\@11¢ #B ct. month. Saviuge
Banks are obtaining from 1 to 114 4 mo., repayahle in monthly inetallments, on the best mortgage eecurity. The call for loans of this
nature is quite large, with comparatively small cesh halances on hand
to meet the demand. .
The Bank of California has declared a dividend of 1 %# ct. # mo.,
for the month of August on their capital stock of $5,000,000.
Gold Bars are quotahle at 840; with a free demand for the China
market. Silver Bars are dull et 2 8 cent. discount.
Coin Drafts on the East are given at 214 YP cent. preminm; Currency do. at 40 % cent. premiuin on gold. ‘Tetegraphic Transfers are
made at 414 4 cent., and 60 days’ Sterling hitls are sold at 49d.
Gold in New York on the 14th, by telegraphic advices, was sold at
146, and Sterling at 107.
During the past week some $50,000 of Legat Tender Notes were
sold within a range of 712g(@72b.5, and were quoted yesterday at 7114.
U.S. 7 3-10 Notes, August issue, were sold at 751g cents, and Juue
issue at 77@7634 seller 30.
City Stocks are inactive. We note the sale of 100 shares Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company at 119 @#@cent. The Front Street,
Mission and Ocean R. R. Company have, up to this date, issued 5,000
sharee of their stock, on which $20 “P share have heen paid.
Since our publication of the coudition of the Savings Banks of this
city, on the 25th of August last, and in which no report was giveu of
the California Building, Loan and Savings Bank, the Board of Directors of this institution—earlier than was anticipated—submitted
their fifth annual report tothe shareholders on the 10th inst., and
from it we ohtain, the following :—Assets, $500,000; an increase of
$249,774.75, in one year. ‘This amouut, we presume, for the most
part, comprises deposits, and if added to the previously reported deposits of the Savings Banks of this city will swell the aggregate to
$9,260,164.52. ‘rhe profits of this Bank are set down at $27,423.56,
for the six months ending April 30th, and deducting interest due and
paid to depositore, dividend to stockholders, and expensee of management during that period, amounting to $22,122.25, leaves a net gain of
$5,301.41. ‘This surplus sum placed to their previously accumulated
reserve fund, together with the paid up capital, gives a total of $56,000 as a fund against any loss, making the entire reserve of the Savings
Banks for the first six months of the present year, as near.as can be
ascertained, $308,918.94. The profits of this institatiou—$27,423 56
—increases the former statement of the gross carnings of all the
Savings Banks to $521,214.10. Theamount of ‘cash on hand” is not
reported. A dividend of 1 cent. 4 month to depositorsand 144 BP
cent. %# month to the stockholders has heen declared by the Board ae
set forth in their report. é
At a meeting of Odd Fellows held at their Hall, on the evening of
the 12th inst., preliminary steps were taken towards the formation of
a Savings Bank. A committee was appointed to report upon a proper
form and manner of organization.
‘The Miuing Share Market has heen exceedingly inactive during the
week just closed, exhibiting a limited range of transactions at the
Board. A few leading oncs show considerable improvement, while
lees favored shares, with few exceptions, maiutained previous quotations. The more prominent companies are making very creditable
exhibits, and since our last issue we note that the foltowing companies
have declared divideuds:—Hale,& Norcross, Savage, Yellow Jacket,
and Imperial.
Savage has materially improved, opening at $1,100, steadily advaneing to $1,157.50, and closing yesterday at $1,150 hid. ‘This
Company: declared a dividend of $50 per foot on the 8th inst., which
amounts to $40,000, leaving a surplus of $30,000 to be carried forward,
together with 2,400 tons of ore, free from atl mining expenses, the
average value of which is helicved to he abont $65,000. ‘Ihe eouth
drift in the Curtis shaft is improving, and in the npper station the drift
is now 180 feet from the shaft. During the week ending Sept. 8th,
the greater part of which was spent in making repairs, 391 tons were
sent to castom mills, and 557 tons of ore were amalgamated.
Hale and Norcross continues to he firmly held and is well maintained
at previous quotations; $1675.seller 30, was hid during the week, with
no sales in the Board. Deducting the dividend of $75 per foot, payable on the 15th inst., amounting in all to $30,000, trom the gross eum
in the treasury, will leave a cash halance of $80,000 on hand. ‘he mine
continues to look well, and no unfavorahle indications are apparent.
Yellow Jacket has also met with some improvement, rising to $780,
then eelling at $775, advencing to $815, receding to $792.50, huyer
8, and closing yesterday at $790. During the month of August the
receipts of hulfion produced from 1271¢ tons of lst class, and 9,847
tons of 2d class ore, amounted to $379,699.92, averaging ahout $38
to the ton. The dishursements amonnted to $249,455.43, the following heing the largest items of expenditure: crushing, $148,851 ; assay,
discount, and Federal tax, $16,066 ; timhers, $15,127; and supplies
for mine, $6,430. The Morgan Mill crushed 2,0253% tons of ore,
yielding $82,550 ; this gives an average of $40.74 4 ton. The amount
of cash in hank is reported at $389,126, from which deduct the dividend of $50 % foot, payable on the 15th inst., ($60,000,) and $162,804

and held at the close at $825. During the week ending Septemher,
8th, 661 tons of ore were extracted from the mine, or an average yield
of about 100 tons day. The “breast” of the south drift exhibite four
feet of ore,and the general appearance of the mine is very favorable
to an increased production for the prescnt month.

tendency, a few feet changing hands at $700@#690, closing $680 bid.
There ie nothing of importanco tv note at this time in regard to the
