Äsia Landa, Limited, has received the following report from their New York correspondents, E. & Pierce & Co. The general market looked quite impressive. We think that chances are better than even for now. high averages during the next week unless unexpected news turns up. Report on business conditions coming in begin to look convincing. Wheat: The market is quieter but vulnerable, with lots of profit taking. Sentiment is cautions but less bullish. Cotton: Easier, on the uncertain.. foreign situation. Trade and speculators bought and the South sold. Silver: The decline yesterday attracted Commission House, support. On rumours of probable Government action the Trade and a well known short operator sold, but offerings were readily absorbed. Business Dones 3,290,000 shares,
