Money Market and City Intelligence Update
The English funds opened heavy but closed with an advance of a half to three quarters per cent on last Saturday's prices. Consols fluctuated, dipping early then rising, with later weakness as figures from Paris influenced sentiment. Foreign stocks were subdued, railway shares languid, and gold exchange differentials shifted between Paris and London. An announced June bill rate cut and French fund strength supported Consols briefly, but idle activity persisted and prices eased again into the close.
