Now that the American Treasury is not buying in London, the ma- Jor innuence which has stimulated the market for nearly two years has been withdrawn. It Fote- worthy, however, that since Ame- rica has been buying in the Bom- bay Market, Indian purchases in this country have been on a much larger scale.
