GOLD
closed at 11OH, all the sales OF the day having
been at 11oA 1loh. The feeling with reference
to the future OF this market Is about evenly
divided, there being no basis upon which calcula-
tions are made other than that which attaches to
local demand and speculation. The course OF
specie abroad is not fully understood here; but
there are sagacious business men who argue that
The withdrawal OF bullion from the Bank or Eng
land and o consequent increase in the Bank rate
must produce corresponding strength in America.
The rates paid for carrying were and per cent
