THE PEACE BAROMETER.
NERVOUS MONEY MARKET.
BBMAHY AND THE ENTENTE.
LONDON, June 11. The Stock Exchange expects a big Russian loan to be launched shortly, chiefly in Paris, but partly in London. Consols have fallen from £88 to £87 13/9 on the week, and high-class securities are depressed, owing to apprehension regarding the effect of an Anglo-Russian entente. The adverse effect of the entente on German sentiment, coupled -with the reaction after the recent rise, is chiefly responsible for the nervous state of the market. I The "Daily Chronicle" states that between four million and five million sterI ling in bar gold is being sent from London to St. Petersburg this week.
