LATE NIGHT CABLES
The following cables were re- ceived last night through Reuter's Agency:-
London Forecast of the American
Market 11
#
Stocks: Wall Street will probably open with irregular movements, owing to the absence of any fresh stimulus..
Cotton: The cotton market is ex- pected to open slightly lower, owing bntationary to uncertainties of measures. Print cloth sales are anticipated to equal this week's production. The market did not respond to the Gold Clause De- cision as was expected.
Rubber: Rubber market is anti- cipated to open higher.
Wheat: It is expected that the market will open steady. The pre- seat low level of the world marketa does not becord with the prospec- tive halving of the world's surplus by the end of this season.
New York Cables
Stocks: The opening was slightly lower on fair but diminishing ag- tivity.
Cotton: Selling was light and fair with trade offtake. Europe was small buyer of summer month deliveries.

New Lease Of Life
The yacht, Bronzewing, is being recommissioned "in Sydney after more than 40 years of varied ser- vice. She was built in the Isle of Wight more than 40 years ago for an Admiral in the British Navy. Euring her career she has been a racing yacht, an elaborately fitted pleasure craft; a Customs tender, a steam trawler on the New South Wales coast, and now she is likely to become a trading schooner in the islands.
When acquired by her present owners, who are fitting her out in Mosman Bay, the craft was little more than a hulk, but now after"| months of work, the graceful lines of the yacht, which once competed at the famous Cowes regatta, are once more apparent. When the Bronzewing was built in 1892 no expense was spared, and the solid teak planking of her hull and deck has been declared by experts to be as strong as ever. Her bulkheads and ribs are of iron, and her new owners believe that she will be capable of many years more ser-
Pleasure Craft
In 1894, the Brunzewing was ac- quired by the late Mr. Samuel Hor- derm, and was brought to Sydney for use as a pleasure craft. After many years' service, she came un- der the ownership of the Customs Department, and was fitted with a steam engine. Subsequently she was sold to trawling interesta When purchased by Messrs. J. M. Foreman, R. Mulhall, and J. W. Rae
