YESTERDAY'S "OFFICIAL QUOTATIONS
Investment securities displayed firmness throughout the day, but business was necessarily limited owing to lack of offerings. In the lower-priced issues, Cements did not maintain yesterday's advance, having receded to 84.40. Hotels also were decidedly of colour throughout the day's session.
There was again considerable ex- citement in the Philippine mining shares, the entire list recording ad- vances, the issues more specially favoured being. Antamoks, Bala- and tocs, Benguet Consolidated Benguet Explorations. Cable re- ports from Manila state that the market there is "wildly excited."
