OF E'S DISCOUNT CAUSES REACTION . New York, N.Y. Feb, 8--Two bil- lion dollars, or more, in quoted values were wiped out yesterday in a sweeping recation of the New York stock exchange caused by the federal resérye board's ultimatum that speculative credit must be re- strained and by the increase from 4; to 5% per cent in the Bank of England's discount rate, checking the fiow of gold from London to New York. Blocks of 5,000 to 20,000 shares were dumped into .the market at the opening, with the result that initial declines in the active issues ranged from $3 to $17 a share. A recovery ensued before noon but it failed to hold and the market turned weak again in the last hour, with at least 50 issues closing as met declines of $5 to $35 a share. Trading started off at a brisk pace, sales in the first two hours running above 2,500,000 shares, but it slowed down later. The day's sales were 5211900 shares as contracted with the record-breaking total of nearly 7000000 shares on November 23 last. ' Governors of the exchange voted today to close the exchange on Sat- urday in order to afford relief to the personnel of member houses from the effects of sickness caused by the epidemic of influenza during recent months, Similar action was taken by the New York curb market.

The effort to reduce the number is not due to the King's illness oniy but bas been under discussion for a long time, The firsc court will be held early in May if the King's convalescence progresses satisfactorily, In the event that the King is not well enough to be present, the Queen will ho,d the courts, attend- ed by members of the royal fam- | ily, The King's illness has delayed the opening of the lists about a month, The strain of standing for two and a half hours is very great on the King and Queen, Queen Victoria was sccustomed to sit during court and [it is probable that this precedent may be ra vived, in view of the King's deli- cate health, The Prince of Wales will depu- tize for the King at three levees to be held during the coming sea- son, the first to be held Feb. 26.
