[r EIREEPEN CE. MONEY MARKET. MONDAY EVINING. The English stock market was flatter to-day, on the less favourable appearance of the Turkish ques tion. The general impression of the market remains strongly in favour of its pacific solution, but the atti.l tude still persisted in by Russia causes temporary uneasiness both in Paris and here. Otherwise the influences at present in operation on the market aro i favourable, amongst which may be included the im provement in the weather, and the easier position of the money market both in the Stock Exchange and out of doors. In the house to day money ruled at 2 to 21 per cent. on government securities, and was readily obtainable. Consols for the account of the Ist June opened 100:1 to 1, improved to 1001 to Z, fell .to 100,1 to 1, and finally left off at the opening price. For money the closing quotation was also 1001 to 1. The operations have been chiefly speculative. The offi cial business report includes: Three per Sent. Con sols, for money, loot, • ditto for account, 1001, ;1. Three per Cent. Rt:duced, 100, 991.

SPORTING. TATTERSALL'S.-YESTERDAY. West Australian, Pharos, and Orestes were the only Derby horses backed for money : 70 to 40 and 100 to 5.5 were taken several times about the first; 9 to 1 to various sums about the second ; 10 to Ito upwards of 2,5901., and finally 9 to 1 to 1,0001., about Orestes. The odds quoted against Honeywood and Sittingbourne were scarcely more than nominal. Umbriel, too, was very quiet. The current of opposition against Claes' was as strong as ever-16 to 1 was again obtainable. 1,000 to 35 once, and 25 to 1 in tens and ponies, were betted against Jerry Kent. The Oaks betting was remarkable for the sudden fall of Mistletoe. For some time she had figured as leading fa vourite ; in fact, a good deal of money had been invested at 3to 1. Yesterday, however, ominous offers of 4to 1 bad quickly the effect of depressing her to 7to 1. Towards the close she rallied a little, and 5 to 1 was taken, but only to a small amount. Catherine Hayes advanced to sto 2, taken, and 7 to 1 was taken to some money about Mentmore Lass.
