There is almost a panic created in the stock market. Westg.irth's circular reports that the market is entirely upset, that New South. Wales four per cents. ha v e dropped two per cent, in price.

Commenting on the loan, the Standard states that the system of rapid borrowing either indicates bad management or pressing necessity, and is likoly to injure the credit of New South Wales in the English Market. In the event of the loan not being covered, a syndicate will probably be formed to take up the balance. The Cape loan has been rendered practically unsaleable.

The brokers think that the loan will float, as investors are offeiing a quarter per cent premium.
