London, 10th October, Toudors were opened to-day for the 9:per cent loan of £1,000,000 ismed by the Now South Walee Government, the minimum price of which was fired at £84. The amount was covered twofold at an average price of about 007. A syndicate tondored for the whols aracant of the loan at £96 148.

The total amount, tendered was £6,800,000. Tendernes at £16 144. will be allotted 52 per cent of the amount of their tonders, and thore above that price will receive the full amont tendered for

The slight panie, in the city and the general Esi in colonial securities, owing to the collapse -in-the-mining share market, frightened many Leaderoys for the loan and caused them to with- draw at the last inement. Otherwise thøre would have been much heavier tendering, and a better price would have been obtained.

The Standard says that the Now South Wales loan was a very qualified shocess. Much
