MONEY MABILET.-(TEIS DAY.)

Two o'CLooz.
Great inactivity continues to prevail in the stock
markets, yet prices generally are fairly supported
to-day. Consols have improved about 1-16 per
cent. Home railways are mostly unaltered, and
as regards foreign stocks the only change of

has made no alteration in the rate of discount,
neither was it expected that any action would have
been taken to-day.
The discount market is steady to-day, with a
fair amount of business. The supply of money is
somewhat larger, but no transactions appear to
have taken place under 44 per cent.

telegrams, the Three per Cent. Reutes opened at
