The London market for American securities has sym-
pathised in the general dulness and inactivity which has
characterised dealings on the Stock Exchange during the
past week. For United States 5-20 Bonds there has been
a slightly increased demand the last day or two, and we
have to note a fractional advance on the week, the latest
quotation being 681 to 4. In Illinois Central the trans-
actions have been limited, and the closing price is 77 to 1,
half a dollar under last week ; but for Eries there has been
renewed inquiry, and they have advanced to 511 to t.
The recent settlement again showed a short supply of
stock, as much as one dollar per share being paid for the
loan of stock till the 15th November.

There his been a steady demand for Atlantic and Great
Western Consolidated Bonds, with daily transactions ;
they close 40 to 41.
