THE MONEY MARKET,

(From the Times City Article.)

WEDNESDAY EVENING.—The English funds, to-day,
opened steadily, and afterwards experienced a decline

The Russian Loan was allotted to-day, each appli-
sum asked for, and the final

cation getting the w

price was discount tc

The exact amount of the

übscriptions has not yet transpired

The exchanges from China, by the telegram this
morning, are less unfavourable for this country. At
Hong Kong a downward movement seems to have boen
about 2 per cent., but at Shanghai it was only a per cent.
In the Corn market there was increased heaviness.

The Railway traffic returns are good,—London and
North Western shows an increase of £5,493, Great
Northern £3,361, Great Western £3,286.

In the Railway market, yesterday, the principal alter-
ation was 1 per cent. in Great Northerns.

(From the Daily News City Article.)

WEDNESDAY EVENING.—The Funds remain very
firm. The closing quotations were the same as those of
yesterday, although at one period a decline of a per
cent. was presented. _ _

Sales of Consols, Railway Referential Stock, and
Turkish Bonds took place for reinvestment in the new
Indian Loan, which, at 97, pays about £5 3s. per cent.
No alteration in the Discount market. There are no
bullion operations at the Bank.
The Wheat market was dull to-day at Monday's
