FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

There i 40 material change 10 report in money
r,stters. The same stringency as reported for
the la. three nor bs or 50 remains, and no
promise of immedia,s relief, as far as Ottawa is
concerned. Trade is dull, and will probably
continue SO.
In New York and Chicago the money market
is reported little easier, but the rates in New
York are 691 per cent. on call, and in Chica-
70 from 1OG1S per cent, the relief is not quiet
enough 20 stimulate business.
Government bonds have advanced about per
cent during the week, and gold about the same.
The last adyices, however, show decline in each
ct about per cent.
The buying rate of gold IN New York is 121 y.

Owing to the low price OF gold, sterling ex.
change is lower and is now sold in Ottawa at
