Harriman's Weekly Report
Messrs. G. A. Harrimanı & Co.'s weekly share report and market review issued at noon on Saturday states:
"
Further slight improvement in values is shown this week in local shares, although business has been on a restricted scale, with sellers dificult to locate, so that buying orders, which preponderate, are by no means easy to fill. The Manila market continues to be listless and devoid of feature, whilst the turn- over in mining shares has been negligible."
