THIS DAY, Four P.. Business on the Stock Exchange is still unusually quiet. not a single transaction having, come under our notice since we fast wrote. Banks are, if anything, firmer than of late, a good demand existing for the stock at 115, per cent. premium, and possibly a slightly higher price would be paid. Marine and Fire Insurance quita- tions remain unchanged. There are buyers of Docks at go per cent. premium, and sellers at 51; but no actual transfers have been récorded. The stocks of both the Sugar Refining Companies are in much better favor. The old stock is quoted at 158, with buyers, and there is a strong demand for Lazons at 113 for cash. There are also offers to buy Luzons' on time, at 115' for June.
