Langkats Shanghai Explorations Shanghai Loans
Asia Lands, Limited, has received the following report from their Naw York correspondents, E. A. Pierce & Co. The strength of metal shares was encouraging in the last hour of trading, but it looks as though in a number of other directions liquidation continues. Buying power remains relatively mall and extremely cautious.
Wheat: Early Washington ramours that speculation would be curbed cause liquidation on a thin market. The rumours were denied later. Winnipeg continues firm.
Cotton: Support came into evidence at each recession, trade absorb- ing most sales. Later speculative buying was renewed.
Silver: Strong throughout the session, due to speculative buying, which was undoubtedly based on rumours of possibilities of the romoneti- sation of silver.
Business Done: 1,140,000 sharer.
