NONEY-MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market is very quiet, comparatively
few bills being brought forward for negotiation.
The floating capital at the command of the brokers
shows a further increase, and the quotations for the
best commercial paper tend lower. In exceptional
Cues, 41 and 4 per cent. have been. taken for the
best short dated bills.
The sum of £90,000, in bar gold and sovereigns,
Was sent to the bullion department of the Bank of
England yesterday afternoon. There was also a
withdrawal of £2,000 for Anierica.
The business of Messrs. Knight, Dale, and Co.,
stock and share brokers, has been absorbed by the
London Stock and Share Company Limited, with
a capital of £lOO,OOO in £20,000 shares of £5 each,
fully paid up, which will commence operations to-
day. Mr. Knight has accepted the deputy chairman-
ship.
Only a moderate amount of business has been
transacted in the Foreign and Colonial Produce
Markets during the last few days. The public sales
Of tea have proceeded at steady rates. Sugar has
been in moderate request, without any material
Change in prices ; while the transactions in coffee
have led to a decline of 6d. per cwt. on Ceylon de-
scriptions. The demand for rice has continued
active, chiefly for exportation, and holders again
demand enhanced rates. 'Fallow has been in mode-
rate request, but owing to large speculative opera-
tions, quotations for both present and forward de-
livery have slightly given way.
