LONDON MARKETS
SUFFER SETBACKS
Unfavorable Domestic Business
Reports Cause Drop Despite
Wall Street Rallies.
By Wireless to The Star. ~

BY wireless to The Star.
LONDON. July ls.-The London
securities markets experienced last
week the first material check to prices
since the recovery began in mid-June.
The volume of business shrank con-
siderably. The industrials failed to
derive support from Wall Streets spas
modic rallies and were discouraged by
domestic economic news-for example,
reduced steel output, poor railway
traffic reports, lower automobile reg
istrations and a further decline in
shipbuilding orders.
The market also was unpleasantlv
surprised by the midweek alrounce-
ment that Courtaulds interim divi-
dend had been reduced from 3la to
IL per cent. the directors stating
that last years carry-forward had
been drawn upon to pay the dividend
and also that "the business Of our as
Sociated companies on the American
continent was quite unremuneratlve
for the first half of 1888" The COM
pany's ordinary shares sold off and
other leading industrials were marked
down sharply in sympathy.
Aircraft shares failed to derive bene-
fit from the issuing of supplementary
estimate of f23.OOO,OOO for the Royal
Air Force which will be met from
defense loan borrowing. This raises
the total air force expenditure for
the current financial year to G126,-
00o 900. Of which G52,OOOO00 will be
for aircraft. thus assuring prosperity
for the aircraft industry for a con-
Siderabl time.

Press Meeting

MORGANTON, May 9.--Hen-
Jacksonville lost by one vote to
Blowing Rock when the executive
committee of the North Carolina
Press association met here Satur-
day to select a meeting place for
the 1888 convention.
Inability of the association to
hold the convention before the
height of Hendersonville's sum-
mer tourist season, when accom-
modations in single hotel could
not be guaranteed, was the factor
that caused the committee to vote,
4 to 3 in favor of Blowing Rock,
it was said. The convention will
be held on July IA, Is and l6.
The full executive committee
attended, and were guests with
others at luncheon given by Miss
Beatrice Cobb, press association
secretary. Comprising the COM
mittee are the president, w. Cur
tiss Russ, of Waynesville, the sec
rotary, and l.. C. Clifford, of Hick-
Dry, H. A. Cecil, of High Point,
C. C. Council, of Durham, w. E.
