Special to the Gazette
New York. June 2-Rumors which were
circulated yesterday affecting the standing
of London banking house were emphatic
ally denied by representatives of that house
to-day. In consequence the London mar
kets were frmer. London operators bought
ST. Paul, Louisville and Nashville and
Union Pacific. Consequently the stock
market opened strong but soon reports OF
further gold engagements were circulated
and prices fell off. London purchases were
heavy, and during the first hour they were
estimated at 10000 shares. There was
good deal of favorable news from London.
4 private cable stated that the bank of
England had reduced its price for Ameri-
can gold again, this time to 76 shillingS
pence The bank of England received
e473, 900 of gold to-day.
Gables were received by banking house
to the effect that it is reported that the
Bank of England will reduce its rate of
discount to per cent on Thursday. Joint
stock banks have fixed the minimum rate of
discount at 3s3 per cent, pending negotia-
tions. This news is very important. Con-
ferences to this end have been held for
some days past. The decision is not final
however Still it is now believed that joint
stock banks will maintain the rates. Our
market became much stronger as this news
came out and when it was known how
small the gold orders were, prices advanced
TO the close.
ST. Paul and Union Pacific were the
strongest stocks News from London
continued favorably and final prices were
above yesterday Advances and declines
