We are informed that a company is in course of
formation, under the Limited Liability Act, for the
renewal and working of the West Ham Distillery.
This business, it will be remembered, was formerly
in the hands of Mears. Davidson sod Gordon, and
is stated to have yielded considerable profits.
The works are described as eligibly situated, bring
only a quarter of a mile from the river
landing-place, and an equal distance from the
' Eastern Coun,ies Railway. The manager is to be
Mr. Thomsa Webb, to whom the distillery formerly
belonged, and who formed and conducted the business
from its commencement.

an approaching issue of 21,600 bonds, of 250 f. (101.)

vian Three per Cent. Binds, representing a total of
26,9531., which have been purchased and cancelled.

To ESDAY EVINLNO.

The funds to-day opened with renewed buoyancy,
and soon attained a fresh rise of 1 per cent. Some
considerable sales in realisation of profits ensuing, a
reaction of per cent. took place, but at the close the
feeling was again firm, and the latest quotations
were equal to those of yesterday. In general cha-
racter the market remains good. A very favourable
impression has been produced by the Budget, which
fully confirms the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer's previous statements with regard to the
limited amount of stock that has yet to be
erected to finally clear off the expenses of the war.
The steady influx of gold, coupled with the
prospect of diminished exports of the precious
metal, is also hopefully regarded. In considering the
priced Consols, it must likewise be remembered
that immediately after the 4th of June, when the
present " account " terminates, the half-yearly divi-
dend will be deducted from the market quotation.
In the discount market there was a fuil supply of
money this afternoon, owing partly to the release of
the surplus deposits on the loan.
The scrip of the new loan rose this morning to 2 to
21 prem., and left off at 11 to 1I prem.
Consols opened at yesterday's final quotation of
941 to 3 for the 4th of June, improved to 941 to 1,
declined to 911 to 1, and stood at the close of the
house at 941 exactly. Subsequently the price was
quoted 941 to 1. For money the latest qlotation
I was 941. The official business report is as follows:
Three per Cent. Consols, for money, 941, 1,1;
ditto, for account, 4th June, 941, /, 4, 3. Three per
Cent. Reduced, 93, 931, 931. New Three per

dealt in at 78.

The June Exchequer Bills were again in request
to-day, and haws recovered to 6s. to 2s. discount.
Further purchases of the March bills were effected
at par. The market for the floating debt is strength-
ened by the Chancellor of the Exchequer's statement
that the total amount of these securities actually in
the hacde of the public is only about 1.5,100,000%
Exchequer Bonds have risen to 981 to!.
Foreign stocks were generally firm. The chief
demand was for Spanish securities, which were sen-
sibly higher. The rise in the Deferred Three per
Cants. amounted to 1 per cent. Turkish Six per
Cents. were marked se high u 991 in the morning,
but closed 1 per cent. lower than yesterday, at 981 to
