The return of the Bank of England reflects the in-
active condition of the money markets. The increase
in the bullion, though not important, exceeds the
foreign arrivals sent in during the week, thus showing
that the influx of gold from the country has not yet
ceased. The deposits of both the public and the go-
vernment are larger, while the circulation has fallen
Oft The discount business at the Bank was below
the securities, running off to the extent of £441,916.
The following are the changes since the last return:--
