uiar quarterly dividend Of IL per cent, pay
able Jan. 20.
Delaware & Hudson will meet week from
today. The dividend of last quarter Of pres

The financial situation in London continues
to be matter of great interest money being
very firm, while the Bank of England returns
of the week show that the open market is

money there will relax after the first of -l+e
year, but it is now said the situation is hot
likely to develop anything like ease possibly
for some time. London persistently under
estimates the financial assistance it has re-
ceiyed from the money market and places
the amount Of long sterling that is now
being carried to maturity here in loans at a
much smaller total than Wall street au-
thorities accept as current.
