A Ity.runotENT IN TOE DISCOUNT MARKET.

After an association with the London Discount Market, extending over forty-two years, Mr. C. S. Langley, Deputy Manager of the Union Discount Company of London, has retired as from the close of the past half-year, and Ids directors and colleagues of the Union Discount Company entertained him at dinner at Claridge's on Friday last. There are few men better known, and certainly none betterliked, in the London Money Market than Mr. Langley. PosseSSed of sound judg- ment, joined with great experience, he was a real asset to the market as well as to his own company. While a host of good wishes will follow him into retirement he will be greatly missed by those who are still engaged in wrestling each day with the problems of international finance. A. IV. K.
