TWELVE
The Money Market presents indications ofCLOCK ac-
tivity, owing to numerous bills relating to Indian
business maturing to-morrow. The rates, however.
show an easier tendency in consequence of a full
Supply of capital afloat, which has been increased
by the distribution of the dividends.
The operations at the Bullion department of the
Bank yesterday comprised a withdrawal of £lB,OOO
for the Continent, and a receipt of 26,000 sove-
reigns from Egypt and £2,000 in bar gold.
The directors of the Lion Brewery Company
have announced an interim dividend for the past
Six months at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum
on the preference shares, and of 8 per cent, per
annum on the ordinary shares payable on th© Ist
August next.
The report has just been issued of the Metropoli-
tan and Provincial Bank, which states that after
writing off bad and making ample provision for
doubtful debts, for interest paid and payable, for
rebate, and for expenses of every kind, there remains
at credit of profit and loss a sum of £10,202 Bs. 4d.,
showing a nett profit of 6 per cent. per annum.
The rate of dividend to be declared, however, the
directors consider should, in consequence of the
peculiar state of monetary affairs generally, be sub-
mitted to the opinion of the proprietors at the
general meeting.
During the last few days there has been rather
more activity exhibited in the Foreign and Colonial
Produce markets. At the public sales of tea, just
concluded, late rates were generally well sustained.
Sugar has been in more request, superior qualities
being a shade dearer. For coffee there has been a
good demand, and both Plantation and Native
Ceylon have sold readily at full rates. Rice has
been dull; while in tallow the operations, both for
cousutnption and on speculation, have been on a
Very limited scale, at about previous rates.
