MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL [NTELLIGENOE,

TWELVE O'CLOCK.

The Money Market is firm, and so far es the
Bank is concerned tolerably active. For the moment
there is a disposition on the part of discounters to
limit their operations, but the influx of gold and the
limitation of trade must very soon lead to a reduc-
tion in the value of money.
There is still a flow of gold into the Bank of
England ; bars, representing £86,000, were taken
there:yesterday, and 13,000 sovereigns —the latter
from the United States.
No change of importance can be reported in the
market for silver.

The twenty-fifth report of the directors of the
South Australian Banking Company recommends
a dividend of 10 per cent. per annum, free of
income tax, payable as heretofore on the 15th
July and 15th January next. During this year
the bank has transacted an increased business,
and the branch establishments in general show
remunerative results.
The London and Provincial Marine Insurance
Company have notified that interest for the
half-year ending June 30th, at the rate ofts
per cent. per annum, will be payable on and after
the 9th July next.
The payment has been announced by Messrs. J.
Thomson, T. Bonar, and Co., of the half-yearly
dividend of the Peruvian Four-and-a-half per Cent.
Loan due Ist July ; also the dividend on the Con-
solidated Peruvian Five per Cent. Loan. The third
half-yearly redemption at par of the latter loan
will be drawn on the 3d of July, and will amount
to £262,700, making the total sum redeemed
£768,900.
The movements of the precious metals during the
Past week have been of an extensive character,
"ring to large arrivals from New York, Australia,
and the continent. The imports have amounted to
about £1,559,876, while the exports, consequent
upon large remittances to the continent through
Private sources, estimated at about £860,975, have
been to the extent of £1,042,950.
The Cuba has arrived from Boston with £329,985
'n gold.

Two O'CLOCK.

Dulness has prevailed to-day in the Stock Ex-
change
,markets, and comparatively little business
"as been negotiated. Sales, however, have been
made to close accounts as usual at the end of the
strongly
Week,and as the war feeling on the Continent is
in the ascendant, a few speculators have
made their appearance to operate for a fall. Con-
sols, however, are not much worse, the latest prices
