PITT AN END TO SUSPENSE.
Bank of England's Action Steddied
Securities Market.

london, Oct. 3i.-The rate Of disc.-4tt 81 the
Pank Of England was raised to o-tay from AZ 70
5L per cent, foreshadowed in these dis
matches The increase had been regarded aA
foregone conclusion IN consequence OF the In
roads made upon the Bank OF England's stock
of gold by the demands from America and the
re,ert rise IN the discount rate OF the Imperial
Rank Of Germany. Since last Thursday the
Tinted States secured about e3,250OOO In gold
from the Bank OF England and in the open
,,arket. and the banks reserve had been reduced
70 slightly below e21,500o00, which, however.
was e25Oo.000 higher than at this time last
wear. when the bank rate was per cent. 1t
was hoped early in the month that the Bank OF
ENGLAND might finish the year without increasing
;ts rate of discount, but the financial furry in
America upset these calculations and caused
rnyelcone pressure here. necessitating protec-
tive measures.
Apart from the American demands for the
metal the Egyptian requirements for the move
rnent Of the huge cotton crop have yet to be
satisfied, and money is badly wanted in Brazil
and Germany. Should London require assist
ance it seems TO be agreed that Paris Will help
TO the extent Of 100000 in gold in exchange
for sterling bills this being similar to the trans
action Of last year when the American demand
for gold was so keen. This friendly disposition
on the part OF ltle BANK OF france ana the laCI
that the United States Treasury afforded much
help to the American market during the strain
probably kept the Bank OF England authorities
from raising the discount rate 10 per cent.
The announcement of the higher bank rate put
an end to the suspense which had been hanging
over the Stock Exchange for some days. and

Agairst Sir Robert Bredon.

Pelting, oct. 31.-The British newspapers pub
lished In China have Joined the campaign against
Sir Robert Bredon, who has been administering
Sir Robert Hart's office as inspector general OF
the Chinese customs. The agitation has been in
progress since Mr.. Harts return from the sea-
shore, in September. when he Informed the
Chinese authorities that on account Of Ill health
J! would be unable for some time fully to re-
Juno the work Of his Office. lie is still con-
valescing.
Tho object of tho present agitation is TO force
Great Britain 10 interfere in the situation on
account Of the uncertainty regarding succession
to the inspector generalship demoralizing the
customs service the personnel OF which distrust
all the candidates for the position which Hart
created and which exercises despotic authority
over the fortunes Of the customs employees
The feeling on the subject has been increas-
ing during tho last fortnight, as the conviction
has spread that Hart Will not resume his duties
as inspector general. The English papers In
their campaign are in no way deferred by the
fact that the initiative regarding the succession
belongs to China. and that Great Britain IS not
likely 20 interfere while the inspector general Is
a British subject.
