The two-dimensional random-bond Ising model is numerically studied on long strips by transfer-matrix methods. It is shown that the rate of decay of correlations at criticality, as derived from averages of the two largest Lyapunov exponents plus conformal invariance arguments, differs from that obtained through direct evaluation of correlation functions. The latter is found to be, within error bars, the same as in pure systems. Our results confirm field-theoretical predictions. The conformal anomaly $c$ is calculated from the leading finite-width correction to the averaged free energy on strips. Estimates thus obtained are consistent with $c=1/2$, the same as for the pure Ising model.
