Trading wa s dull and professional throughout and the monotony of the movement I was relieved only by the heaviness 'ot such issues as Missouri Pacific and Western Maryland, whose affairs ad mittedly are unsatisfactory. In its broader aspects the real fea ture of the dny was the further rise in foreign exchange. Demand sterling advanced to 4.855 and increased, scalp, of recent gold exports. Brokers report ed a more persistent demand for our metal from Paris and berlin, und the inquiry from the latter center is pop ularly believed to be for Russian ac count. Foreign stock markets were not un like our own. London manifesting a sluggish and drooping tendency, witn some weakness ot Paris r.nd Berlin. Local monetary conditions were un changed, save for some easier tenden cies in-time loans. Total interest and dividend disbursements in the coming month are somewhat in excess of the correspondng period last year and a better Inquiry for bonds may precode thc release of these funds. . . .
