THIS DAY.
Neon. The old scrip of the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation continues in strong demand, in fact, it almost mono- polises the attention of share brokers And their clients. A fair amount of cash tran- sactions have been booked at 179 and 180 cum" New Issue, and also at 150 "'cx" New Issue, the stock leaying off very firm with buyers at the latter quotation. On time, Important business has been arranged in the old style at 18 for the end of the present month and 182 for 28th February. On similar conditions further investments would be made were sellers willing to close. Docks have been made the medium of a fair amount of business both for cash at 54 per cent premium and 55 for January 31st. At the former quotation further shares could be placed; but a few. are offering for the end of the month at 55. Luzons are again on the downward line.
Transfers have been effected for cash at 115 and 114, and the stock is very weak at the fast mentioned rate.
4 o'clock p.m. Since noon Banks have been negociated at 183 and 184, for February 28th, leaving off fairly firm at the latter rate. No other transactions have come under our notice.
