Consols Revive on Statement BY
Chancellor Lloyd George.

[By Transatlantic Wireless to The Tribune
London, June 22.-The stock market
has been dull all the week. as IL usually
the case in Ascot week, when there is
always a large migration from the Stock
Exchange TO the races. Next week the
Henley exodus will begin. and then they
have the cOckneY holiday season, so no
revival can be hoped for to any great
extent before September. when brokers
and the public may again find the mar
ket a matter of principal interest.
The leading feature Of the week has
been consols, which, after being down
to their lowest since 1881. recovered to
7O1l-16 on a statement by the Chan
Cellor Of the Exchequer that he had de
cided TO devote the greater part Of his
budget surplus TO the redemption Of tho
debt. This should mean 100000 ster-
ling for this purpose.
Home rails have been weak, owing TO
the fear of poor dividend announcements
next month on account Of the slow re-
coyery OF the loss Of earnings through
the recent coal strike.
American rails have been firm, and
when politics is out Of the way the
good trade and good crop prospects in
America are expected TO help prices con-
siderably.
