Business continued at a very low-Laidago Corn
ebb, and the market as narrow as
ever, but a small enquiry sufficed
to steady prices to a trifling" ex-
tent, sellers of the previous week
being inclined to a somewhat brighter, view of the situation in the South.
In London, despite a
general marking down of China bonds, Banks steadied slightly to £871, and sold locally up to $1445...
Dividend 'declarations were a feature of the Manila market. The latter was closed for half of the week, under review, and prices were in consequence refreshingly steady. BUSINESS DONE DURING
