bankers had been induced to replace some
of the accommodation recently recalled
in response to the manauvers OF the Bank
of England to raise the interest rates in
the London money market IN order to at

for this operation, according TO cabIed re-
ports from the British capital was the
payment of a commission to the bankers
by the American borrowers which
amounted to a sharp premium over the
interest rate ruling in the money mar
ket there. The resumption of American
borrowing in London marks defeat for
the expressed policy of the Bank OF
England, when it set about to obtain con-
troll of the London money market and to
make its advances in the oIncial discount
