There is fair activityin our local mar.
ket, with no great fluctuations. The
volume of currency is steadily inereas-
ing, though no lower rates of discount
are limited at. However, the tendency
is toward ease, and the prospects point
to the fact hat liberal sums of money
will soon be seeking investment. The
rate at present for loans is 10 per cent
for gilt edge paper or choice collaterals,
with exceptional applicants favored in
a few instances at 8 per cent by some of
the banks. In the open market IL to Is
per cent is exaete6, according to the
urgency Of the applicant and the securi.
ties offered. Rates o. exchange have
been steady for the past few days and
are now as follows; discount Tor de-.
mand bills on New York and Boston; /
discount for sight on the latter and other
New England points, and discount on
New Orleans Selling rates at par on
the latter pointand premium FOR checks
on New York. Gold opened to-day in
New York at l0l3 and closed at 1913.
There is no movement in local stocks
or bonds.
