MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENeI&

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

Notwithstanding the large quantity of gold sent
into the Bank during the past week, the authorities
have not been enabled to reduce their rate of dis-
count. An alteration was not very generally ex-
pected in consequence of the financial operations
usual at this period of the quarter. The return to
appear this evening is therefore not expected to
show any very large increase of notes and gold.
In another week, when the dividends on Govern-
ment Securities shall have been distributed, money
will no doubt be more plentiful, and the brokers
consequently enabled to afford the commercial
classes increased facilities.

An influx of gold, to the amount of £189,000,
took place at the Bank yesterday.
At a meeting of the Trontino and Bolivia (South
American) Gold Mining Company the report stated
that the directors regretted that the operations of
the company had not yielded the results which the
agents had anticipated.
The biddings for £350,000 in bills on India took
place yesterday afternoon at the Bank of England.
The proportions allotted were —to Calcutta,
£200,000 ; to Madras, £450,000 ; and to Bombay,
£lOO,OOO. The minimum price was as before,
is. Hid. on Calcutta and Madras, and is. 11.1 d.
on Bombay. Tenders on Calcutta and Madras at
2s. will receive about 4 per cent., and on Bombay
at 2s. Oid. about 20 per cent. ; all above in full.
These terms show an increase in the demand for
means of remittance to the East.

According to Reuter's telegram, this morning,
the 3 per Cent. Rentes were 67f. 50c. offered ; un-
easiness prevails.
The English Stock Market has been rather ac-
tive, and,the funds have shown an upward tendency.
No material change, however, has taken place in
quotations, and Consols are 86k if for money, and
87 k for the account. The monthly settlement in
these securities takes place to-day, and the prepara-
tions towards that end are progressing satisfactorily.
There have been several dealings in New Threes
and Reduced Annuities, and also in the 2i per
Cents of 1894, at slightly enhanced quotations.
