THIS DAY.
Noon.
There is still nothing to chronicle in the shape of share business, everything being as dull as ditch water. Banks stand nom inally at 182 per cent. premium, and pos- sibly a few shares could be placed at that figure for cash. On time there are sellers at 191 for the end of February and 195 for March. Steamboats are on offer at 50 per share premium, but there is no demand for the stock at present. China Sugars are rather weaker, with sellers al 134 for the end of the year, and Luzons are decidedly out of favor at 90. Nothing cise requires special mention.
-4 o'clock p.m. With the exception of a sale of Luzons on time" at 96 for the end of June, we have nothing to add to our midday report. SHARES.
