Asia Landa, Limited, has received the following report from their New York correspondents, E A Fierce & Co. There has been, little change in the general picture. Bails and utilities were somewhat unsettled, while industrial shares were comparatively firm. General business indicates that the situation is holding its own, with improvement starting in some directions.
Wheat Eastern selling caught "stop" orders. The steadiness of the stock market cushioned the decline. According to a local news agency, indications point bullish weekly statistics, with the United States visihin. supply showing a moderate decrease.
Cotton: Quiet, with the tone steady. The South and abroad were moderate sellers, which the Trade absorbed.
Silver: A aswspaper announcement relative to remonetisation of silver had considerable influence in absorbing marginal selling. With the existing long speculative interest, we must expect a continuance of violent "Buctuations, such as were experienced yesterday and today..
Business Done: 680,000 shares.
