From Saimon to a Philipp. port, business- has been done at 33 cents per picul, and there is further, though somewhat limited, demand for small size only.

Saigon/Java, a fixturp in reported at 30- cents per pioul and also in this direction moderate enquiry continues.

Saigon/Japan, there has been nothing. doing and rates are nominal.

Java tỏ this, a fairly strong enquiry is still provalent, but it in very procure tonnage. Rates are unchanged, viz. 37 cents per picul dry sugar.

The demand from Bangkok to this has resulted in another fixture of a fairly large boat at the full rate of 38/30 cents per pioul and it is quito on the cards that more tonnage will be wanted' ere' long. It is said, that there are still large quantities of grain available for shipment at Bangkok.

Sonte chartering has after all come to pass from Newchwang to Canton and several settlements are on record at the average rate of 29 cents per picul. It is an open question whether further business will come to pass, produce price in the North being so extremely high that shippers," not seeing their way to any margin, prefer to keep aloof,

Coal freights have ruled fairly, steady and fresh chartering has been brought about at rates ranging from 82.05 to 38.15 per tou, Moji to this and $2.30 per ton, Naga
