The London Times, in its financial article this
morning. says:-"It is not possible to say decidedly
what caused the slightly increased hrmness of the
money market on Tuesday. 1t is ascrbed in some
quarters TO apprehensons that large quantities of
gold may be withdrawn from the Bank OF England
for New York, but 1t would take most notable de-
mand to deplete both stores and those OF the
Bank OF France. Still. the effect of such withdrawal
would be much marked now than in or
binary times. Many borrowers now enjoy very
limited credit. Banks will not lend freely. and q
very slight extra demand immediately reacts on the
market IN an exaggerated fashion. Everything is
stagnant. aud to all appearance may remain 30 for
some weeks to come. The price of silver is nomi-
nal. is believed that business could be readily
effected on Austrian account ut 5lsld. per ounce;
but should any Indian demand arise the price would
probably go still higher and. according TO the last
quotation of India council bills. sad per ounce
would nearly represent the value of bar silver"
