TONNAGE. SHANGHAI, 17th July (from Messrs. Wheelock & Co.'s report.)--During the period under review there has been very little done in exports, either for Lon- don or New York, steamers for both ports having left with only poor cargoes. This is partly owing to the dreary state of the tea market. We mentioned in our last that the Pingsney market was still un- opened, and at time of writing there seems to be little prospect of any settlement for sometime; it looked at one time as if the natives were 'about to give in, and in our opinion they must when they realize the in- different stand exporters have taken. The coasting trade remains in the dull state that we have had for sometime to report and the outlook is far from en- couraging. Rates of freight are:-London by Con- ference Lines, general cargo 35s.; waste silk 40s.; tea
Northern Continental ports, general cargo 378. vaste silk 40s.; ten 408.; New York, general cargo 40s.; tea 40s.; New York vid London, general rgo 408 ten 458.; Boston, general cargo 45s.; (ea 508. Philadelphia, general cargo 458.; tea 50s. Ahove rates are subject to a deferred return, as per Conference circular, London by German mail, Shell, and Rickmers Line, general cargo 818. 6d. net Hamburg by German mail, Shell, and Rickmers Fines, general cargo 81s. 6d. net; New York, hy
