In a sense, Stock Market' Arm- market. ness against the silver dificulties 1s the week's most striking feature. Except in the inevitably "depressing effects the mining shares, the deadlock in silver on several days this week in the and the substantial fall price of the 'metal Have not been felt.

A bellet that speculators might have to liquidate, on the Stock Exchange on the arrest of tree dealings in silver has thus beeri disproved. The conclusion to be drawn is that London' has no big open account in the metal, apeque lation in which has mainly come from the East and has pivoted on the market here. British specula tors lost interest in silver when America first left the silver market suspended in mid-air in July last. Preliminary arrangements for Monday's contango show a healthy position on the Stock Exchange só the share far as speculation in markets is concerned.

In the Industrial shares market there seems to be a majority of bears of Cable "A" and Courtaulds and of bulls of Plaster Boards, "Imps," and John Brown Kafürs are not technically very strong. but the arbitrage situation has lot to do with this fact.
