TRIUMPHANT—$1,200 AWARDED. -CHP- The Bank Lock contest which has been carried on in the New York papers for some week’s past culminated yesterday in Sargent’s picking the Yale Double Dial Bank Lock and winning thereby the $1,200 staked upon the result of the trial. Alter Mr. Sargent published the statement that the Yale locks could be picked, parties in the sale and in the use of these locks desired to have the interested matter settled by actual demonstration. Accordingly Mr. Johu B. Yale, Treasurer ol' the Yale Lock Manufacturing Company, and Mr. Sargent arranged for a test. Mr. Yale selected on the Committee to superintend the trial, Mr. John Farrel, of the firm of Herring, Farrel <fc Sherman, safe makers, using the Yale locks, and Mr. Sargent selected Mr. R. A. Ballou, general manager of the American Steam Safe Company, using the Sargent locks, and they two selected as the third member of the Committee and umpire. Geo. II. Wyekoir, Esq., Cashier of the New York Co. National Bank. The Committee took care to see that everything was fairly done, and with the view of determining the facts in regard to the lock. The result appears in the following: >- REPORT OF COMMiTTEl1. We, the undersigned, having been appointed a committee to superintend a test of the Yale Double Dial Bank Lock against picking, and to report the result, as follows : In accordance with the provisions of an agreement between Mr. John B. Yale, of the Yale Lock Manufacturing Company, and Mr. James Snrgent, proprietor of the Sargent Bank Lock, signed and witnessed, on the 13th instant, a Yale Double Dial Bank Lock, taken from the stock on hand for use, was fitted at the Herriug Manufactory to a fine burglar-proof safe, and placed in a room on 14th-st., in this city ; and after Mr. Yale had himself set tlx lock on a combination of his own choosing, one thousand dollars ($1,000), furnished by Mr. Yale, and two hundred dollars ($200), furnished by Mr. Sargent, with the understanding that the $1,200 was to be Mr. Sargent’s if he should pick the lock within forty-eight (18) working hours, and Mr. Yale’s if he should not do it, was placed in the sale by the Committee, and the door was then closed and locked by Mr. Yale in the presence of the Committee and others The operation upon the lock was commenced at 12 o’clock noon, yesterday, and continued till 5 o’clock I\M., when the operators (Mr. Sargent, and one assistant) left for the night, and the safe was placed in the care of watchmen till 8 o’clock this morning, when the operators returned and resumed their work. At II o’clock this morning they had completed their undertaking, having in about 8% hours picked the lock and opened the safe without the slightest injury to either the lock or the safe. The picking was fairly done, and the money was awarded to Mr. Sargent. New York, October 14, 18(19. (Signed.) JOHN FARREL, of Herring, Farrel & Sherman. R. A.

I stand ready to PROVE this assertion to any responsible bankers or brokers who are using these locks and will give me an opportunity to operate upon them.

THE MONEY MARKET. For clay or two past there has been some reports current that the monej' market was getting more unsettled and more feverish. There are three things which are essential to a a healthy ease in the loan market—financial confidence, adequate floating capital, and a proper supply of circulating currency. When the currency is suddenly or severely contracted the loan market never fails to suffer, and the same result happens when floating capital is withdrawn from the reservoir of the a less active movement of pro¬ so provided for. sequently an accumulation of loanable funds which it was supposed would before now have been drawn off by the de¬ mand in the West and South. Secondly, there has been for many months past a heavy amount of capital required for the speculation in stocks and in gold which has been rampant in Wall Street. The banks have lent themselves to this specu¬ lation because it offered a lucrative employment for floating Their loanable funds could be placed on call at high actually employed in this way for many months past. To this fact is partly due the occasional spasms in the money market for whenever the rapacious maw of the speculative giant demanded more funds than were offering, the lenders could dictate terms and they ran up the rate of interest by successive swift jerks to ex¬ tremely high rates. Now this speculative demand for money in Wall Street is cut off by the late explosion which has prostrated and impoverished some of the most wealthy opera¬ tors, and has paralysed and stopped their movements. These two causes have tended to produce the accumulation of capital here and other things being equal we ought to expect an easy tranquil money market. The same result might be looked for from the condition of the currency. The late outflow of greenbacks to the interior has given place to an opposite movement. It is to be remarked, however, that the greenbacks in hand are to a greater extent than usual composed of notes of the higher denominations. These large notes are not wanted in the East to any very considerable degree. They want small rates of interest and Financial Chronicle is issued every and First, there is consequently the drain of capital from great as was expected, not so great as was The banks and leading institutions have con- means.

Meanwhile, however, there is an abundance of the money market in Wall Street cannot be understood, nor currency at the centre, and we have in consequence this can we forecast the probable future so as to regulate our further condition favorable to monetary ease. business with prudence. Everybody knows that just now Notwithstanding this, however, there is something want¬ money is lending at very low rates. But everybody does not ing, for our loan market has scarcely ever been in a more know that the loans made at these rates are special and that, feverish and unsettled condition.

That the trade acter is manufactu.ing dis¬ doing is for the most part of a legitimate char¬ prettyr evident, for there is very little speculation in any department. It is evident, therefore, that the commercial position is improving ; and if the cotton trade Gould be rendered more satisfactory by the aid of abundant supplies, there are reasons for asserting that we should again commence a prosperous career. There is still a great outcry that the foreign manufacturer is taking away from us our trade in manufactured goods; but the official returns do not indieite that we are sustaining the amount of injury which is represent d. No doubt the productions of the Continent are increasing, but at the same time the requirements, not only of the Continent but also of the whole world, are increasing, to >, and consequent^ a continued increase in the demands upon manufacturing countries must be the result. It would be interesting to ascertain what has been the increase in the demand for manufactured goods since the period when the production of cotton received so important a check in 1861. I think that, in spite of wars, panics and high prices, it would certainly be found that commerce has continued to progress, and that cottons, woolens, railway materials and many other articles have been much more extensively consumed than they were about ten years since. If, then, the world’s trade has iimproved under unfavorable conditions, may it Dot be fairly argued that, with Europe and the world at large in peace, and with the considerable decrease. Many of the former, on India or China account; but, a nevertheless, diminution in the exports to the two countries of about 96,600,000 yards. To the Itiliao kingdom there his been an a aug¬ mented export of 21,201,0:0 yards; to France, of 7,420,000 yards, to the United States, 22,460,000 yards ; to New Grenada, 4.200,000 yards; to Brazil, 66,700,000 yards, and to Australia, of 2,200,000 yards.

The iron trade continues firm, pig as well as railway descriptions being in good demand. The following report is from Manchester, and relates to the state of the trade for cotton yarn and cotton piece goods : cheaper. The present week will bear comparison for dulness with any of the numerous flat ones which have been experienced in this market since the beginning of the There has been no improvement to-day, and prices have been year. fully as low as on any previous day this week.. The business done at the end of last week gave the market a temporary steadiness, if it did not impart any impetus to i*, but as the sales then made were only partial, and no amount of general business was done, a weaker tone succeeded, and since Tuesday the tendency of prices has heeu downwards, and less confidence shown by both buyers and sellers.

From the improved facilities of communication in almost uninterrupted stagnation, accompanied by a decline in prices; and the gen¬ eral opinion is now as much in favor of a fall as it was previously that prices would many parts of the world, we have already derived considerable benefit, be maintained, even if they did not rise. The variations in the amount of cotton taken and probably we have received a fair shara of the weekly by the trade during the increased trade of last nineteen weeks are remarkable and significant.

The continental manufacturers have also derived (thirteen wreeks,) spinners took from Liverpool a weekly average of 55,568 bales, while from August 20 to this day (a period of six weeks,) they have only taken much good, and it now becomes a question which country can supply 29,000 bales per week. ’ the best made article at the lowest remunerative price.

Consequently the demand has been very lim¬ ited, and with large receipts both here and at the Southern ports > favorable crop accounts, and a dull and heavy goods market, prices for the raw materia! have been heavy and lower. Last Saturday the decline was middling uplands at the close being quoted at 27c., low middling 26£c., good ordinary 25£c. and ordinary 24^-c. Monday, with a fair business doing? prices were again off 4c, on ordinary and good ordinary and i@ic. on the better grades. Tuesday prices further declined i@^c. on the better grades, but at the decline there was rather more doing. Wednesday, with a little improvement in the demand, principally for export, there was a recovery of about Jc. in the quotations. But Thursday there was less doing again, and with less favorable Liverpool advices the close was heavy, though wilhout any change in the quotations. To-day the market has been dull and the close is quiet. The stock is very small, and consequently the offer¬ ings are not large, but as the demand continues limited they are sufficient to supply the wants of buyers. For future delivery there has been a fair business, but rates are generally lower.

So far a? the Southern ports are concerned, these are the same exports reported by telegraph, and published in the Chronicle last Fri¬ day, except Galveston, and the figures for that port are the exports for production—these facta, we say, taken together, furnish the data for two weeks back. With regard to Nev York, we include the manifests only up to night, to make the figures correspond with the offi¬ fixing the point below which prices cannot safely go, even if cial week. Tuesday we Below give a list of the vessels in which these ship¬ the ideas if those who are looking for large crops, both here ments from all ports, both North and South, have been made: that in the of 1867-8, \*lien Cotton fell to 15$c, consumption so outstripped production that stocks were run down about 500,000 bales, while in 1868-9, with Cotton up to, say an average of about 29 cents, consumption fell again so as to equal and one season in India, are realize For instance, we see that there was enough produced last year to supply all that could be used at 29@30c, but that there is a want, which is latent at high prices, and yet with a decline, soon begins to make itself felt increasing in force as the rates go lower, and which would result in a consumption outstripping tint of 1SG0 if rates declined enough. This want asserted itself in 1867-8 so powerfully when Cotton fell to 16£c, as quickly to raise prices again till they reached 25c. about the 1st of March, 1868, and 30c. early in. April of that year. With these facts in view then it seems that, within the Cotton limits indicated above, the extent of the further decline this to be measured by the popular belief of the season prospective supply. is If that belief is not realized there will, of course, be a reaction. The generally received figure at this point and also along the Atlantic coast for our own crop is 500,000 bales in excess of last year’s yield. At New Orleans and along the Gulf an increase of 250,000 bales appears to be the popular figure. Without determining as to the correctness of either of these views, it is safe to repeat what we first said, that prices are now declining under the influence of the higher figure, with the additional expectation of an enlarged early supply from ladia.

There has been a firm market for raw sugars throughout the week, and we advance our quotations over the prices given in our last— an improvement which took place early in the week and has since been upheld. Refiners bought quite liberally immediate waut9 were supplied, but soon a at the first, and their fair trade has prevailed since in satisfying the demancs of the trade. The stock here is now so far reduced as to cease to be a source of any depression to the market, while hold* rs look to the future with much confidence, and meantime offer their stocks sparingly and without any aDxiety. Refined sugars have improved £c, and are selling fairly, but with no special activity.
