HOVEY MARKET

A ND
COMMERCIAL. INTELLIGENCR,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

In the general discount market there continues to
be a very moderate inquiry for accommodation,
owing to the payments due thig` day (the 4th of the
month) having been satisfactorily provided for.
The rates current for the negocia.tion of first-class
short-dated paper range from about to 1 per
cent.

Business in the corn market this morning exhibited
very little animation. There were rather liberal
supplies of home-grown and fer,ign wheat on
offer, and prices gave way freely is. to 2s. per
quarter.

Atlantic and Great Western Debentures remain
steady, at 25i 26i, and the Consolidated Mortgage
Bonds at 20 21.

Messrs. Chat'Leris, Nichols, and Co. have an-
nounced a first dividend of 2s. 61 in the pound to
the creditors of the Peninsular, West Indian, and
Southern Bank (Limited), in liquidation.

Advices from Manchester state that Bolckow,
Vaughan, and Co. (Limited) are about to reduce
their nominal capital from £2,500,000 to £1,500,000,
and their shares from £lOO to £6O ; a step that has
already improved the value of the property, and
caused the shares again to be quoted at a premium.
Freights on the Wear have ruled steady this week,
and London is quoted 6s. 3d. to 61. 6d. per ton,
HaMburg £8 15s. to £9, Nieu Dieppe £7, Ostend
£8 15s. ; Alexandria rates are lower, and other
Mediterranean rates about the same as last week.
Indian rates aro firm outward, and the same home-
ward.

The Committee of the Stock Exchange have
amended the rule No. 109, which stands now as
follows :—" The buyer of bonds or other securities,
subject to periodical drawing, shall not be entitled
to claim delivery thereof previous to the day for
which they were bought. Bargains must be settled
in securities which have not been officially notified
as drawn. In case of the erroneous delivery of any
drawn securities, the buyer (on receipt of undrawn
securities and on allowance being made for any
drawing or dividend of which he may have lost the
benefit) shall deliver such securities back to the
person who held them at the time of the official
notification of the drawing, or shall pay to him any
proceeds received from such drawing, provided the
said securities or the proceeds thereof be traced to,
and remain in the possession and under the control
of, such buyer ; all intermediate persons being re-
leased from liability. To claim in respect of the
erroneous delivery of drawn securities will not be
entertained by the committee unless made within
nine calendar months."

The pig iron trade at Teeside and Cleveland
seems as active as it had been for the last month,
and shipments continue good. Various good trans-
actions are reported. Warrants are quoted at 445.
6d. sellers and 41s. 3d. buyers. The list quota-
tions are rather advanced, No. 1 being 488 6d. ;
No. 3, 445. ; and No. 4, 435. net cash, or Is. per
ton more four months' bills. Stocks are gradually
diminishing, both in makers' premises and in the
stores.

During the week the arrivals at Hartlepool have
been exceedingly limited, 37 ships only having
entered the East Harbour, three with cargoes and
the remainder in ballast, whilst during the same
period 119 have sailed. At West Hartlepool 62
vessels have arrived, eleven importing timber
cargoes, three grain, and two goods and merchan-
dise, whilst 114 have sailed. The London freights
have varied somewhat during the week, owing to
the number of ships in port, and as low as 6s. 6d.
has been accepted, but the current rate is Gs. 9d.
A higher figure has been given to a few certain-
sized vessels with an uncertain despatch.
From the manufacturing districts the accounts
for the past week state that business, in most, de-
partments, has been very quiet. At Manchester
prices of cloths and yarns have continued to recede,
but manufacturers and spinners have tolerable con-
tracts on hand. In the woollen districts of Leeds,
Bradford, and Huddersfield, business in all depart-
ments has remained very quiet, the great bulk of
the winter demand has now been supplied, and
spring goods as yet are only partially dealt in. The
hosiery and lace trades of Leicester and Notting-
ham have been dull, only a few fancy goods being in
request. In the hardware districts of Birmingham,
Sheffield, and Wolverhampton the staple trades
have remained exceedingly dull, although some
large contracts are out for railway iron for some of
the principal companies.

Two o'CLock.

In the market for the English securities there has
been a decline of per cent., but on the realisation
of profits on " Bear " accounts the comparison of

44+ Turkish 5 per Cents. to 311 if, Mexican
it, to 141 15, and Spanish Passive if, to 181 19 ; but
Greek Bonds have advanced to 12+ 1.
In the Railway Share Market business has re-
mained very quiet, and in most instances prices
have shown a further downward movement. Great
Eastern have receded I, Metropolitan, Midland, and
South Eastern each f, Caledonian 1, and Great
Northein A Stock li.

Miscellaneous and Finance Shares continue very
inactive. Berlin Waterworks, however, have im-
proved to 121 ; and Peninsular and Oriental

Discount, 5 7-16ths.
