The only noteworthy feature in to-day's transactions has been the depreciation of Banks, which have dropped from 160 to 155 per cent. premium, business having been done for cash at 157 156, and 155. also for June at 161 and 161. Neadless to say that this fall is attributed to the latest, not the last, Manila fiasco. Docks are a trile firmer, with buyers at $2 per cent."premium; why this should be so, nobody even pretends to know, but so far a "corner" in Docks has not yet been attempted. Had the manage-" ment been in the hands of General Agents there is no saying what might have taken. place. Puhjoms, as we indicated days ago, continue on the downward line; they. aro now friendless, at 40, but another sensational "boom" is quite on the cards at a very short notice. We hear that the dead-lock in the Rope Company's shares has been arranged at a figure agreed upon by the principal "cornered" short-seller and the inspired bulla." As this is a matter which requires vigorous handling, we refrain for the present from making any further comments. As soon as we are sure of the truth we shall know how to act, and what to say. The settlements in connec tion with the Steam Launch Company robbery have not yet been carried.through; if the sellers who have been so flagrantly swindled will only be true to them- selves, a few criminal prosecutions are inevitable. And so much the better, we say, for the future of share operations in this colony. There is also some trouble regarding China and Manila's, but howmuch or how little we are not now in a position to say. China Sugars have jumped up to 190, and at this rate shares are wanted. A few Land Investment shares have been taken up at 155:
In other stocks there is
nothing particular to report.
