Krlilor "Ihr Kt-nnomial." lonrlnn. . 1.? ' 4 U* London. March 22.?The money market il firm under the* tax tax-gatherers' screw. The stocK market is curiously cheerful. I judge from last night's "We?tm;r,?.ter Gazette" and other signs that official sentiment is gradually being converted to the po'siblity of a atis factory peace settlement in the not far distant future. There was a hopeful sentence in Premier Asquith'? last speech, but M. Ribot. the French Finance Minister, went even further on Friday night, for he said: "It i- permissible, without ?boaating, with? out vain optimism, to perceive the end oi this horrible war." "It i?. permissible, without boasting, without illusion and without vain optimism, to perceive tfie end of this horrible war." This view has undoubtedly found its way to the Stock Exchange A well known jobber told me to-day that honorable peace was not only desired, but expected, and certainly prices in some maikets ap? pear to reflect an optimism which expenditure, debt and impending taxation would not account for. I hear from neutral visitors that Berlin is very shabby, but stub? born, and Vienna bright and lively, but tiied of war. RUSSIANS WIN DVINSK LINES Storm Three Lines of Trenches and Cap? ture Town.
