POUND STERLING DROPPfl) ANOTHER CENT AND A HALF English Gold and American Securities Now on Hand to Help Bedeem Exchange. iAssociattd Pr'tu Rttort.Y NEW YORK, August SO. Two things stand out tonight aa the dominant features of today's foreign exchange market.

English gold and American securities to the amount of 145,000,000 we're, on hand to help redeem the pound sterling from its latest recorded depreciation. The pound sterling dropped a cent and a half more In value. New low values of the pound sterling have become a matter of dally occurrence. For the past four business days a new record has been established each day. Today it was set at cents below normal.

There waa no Indication at the close of business today that the end of the slump was In sight In -its downward plunge sterling carried with it all continental exchange except Russian rubles. In which dealings were said to be extremely light. This money showed an improvement over Saturday, rising from S4.2S 'to 34.60. Francs went to 6.02, witnln points of their previous lew record of depreciation, and lires dropped to 4.61, 4 pounds" from their former record. German relchsroarks fell to 80 7-8, three-quarters of a cent above the low record and the same amount below their rise -of last week.

With the markets thoroughly demoralised no one In high banking circles cared to venture an explanation or a forecast. Representatives of. half a dosen big banking houses skldj they were not Interested in the latest figures. This was taken to mean that they had virtually ceased to deal in foreign exchange for the time being. CATTLE 8AIES.
