They opened dull to-day rise in the discount rate of the Bank of England from 21f@3 Der cent. The rise surprised the market, the advance not be- ing expected till next week. The movement, however Is justified by the bank figures. and the fact that the bank Is now obtaining con- trol of the market is shown by borrowing by the market from the bank having commenced to-day the bank charging per cent for four days The banks and discount houses raised money rates in sympathy with the bank rate and the London rate Is now 2S per cent.
