WALL STREET.
THURSDAY. August 6-6 p. NJ.

THURSDAY. August % r M
gre teature OF special interest in the Wall street
market to-day was the sudden advance or the
Rank OF England rate to per cent Although
,aared il was generally unexpected and came upon
,he street with all the force OF q surprise, pro-
vokinp much speculation concerning the causes
which led 10 1t. The further drain OF specie to the
Rank OF France, which has enabled the latter to
reduce It's rate OF discount from to per cent,
rbe gain for the week being g. 3O7 OOOf. while the
Rank OF England loss was f93s, ,0O0 would seem
suficient for this sudden action on the part
of the latter In raising its discount rate.
The demand upon the Bank of England In
connection with the crop movement has Q
tendency likewise to stimulate extreme caution
while the possible disturbance OF the money by
the operation OF the acknowledgements syndI-
cate may have, without reference to the suspicion
of hostile action on the part OF those opposed to
the syndicate looking to that result, contributed
10 induce the sharp advance OF per cent. Con-
cerning the Suspicion above referred 60, 1t would
seem to be wholly removed by the later explana-
tion furnished OF the large drafts Of the Bank OF
France upon London for several weeks past
viz, that
xHB BANK OF FRANCE HAS BREN SELLING A LARGE
AMOUNT OF FOREIGN SECURITIES

play is much more the rule in financial and COM
sbearn viii admit, hence we have another crafty.
ing assurance OF its existence in this regard when
contemplating the contrasting balances OF the
Bank OF England and the Bank OF France by the
light OF this explanation. The rate of discount in
the open market to-day was 3K per cent, or but q
per cent lower than the bank rate. During the
past week the proportion OF bank reserve to liza
bilities was Al per cent against 46s the previous
week. Notwithstanding the sharp advance IN the
bank rate,
