contradicted by the admission of his

In spite of the considerable amount talk
en- by South America, that there was
no excuse for further prolongation OF

the bank desired to retain a higher

effective, as the supply of money in
Lombard street was so abundant as to
be almost for the moment In excess of
the requirements.
The discount In the open market fell
TO Az per cent. The recent continental
purchases OF sterling bills indicated the
probability that the gold borrowed from
France during the American stringency
would be allowed 10 remain here for a
time and the bills renewed. This proved
further inducement for the bank 20

The stock exchange already had fully
discounted the per cent rate and the
