THIS DAY, FOUR г.st. Business in shares and stocks remains unusually quiet. The satisfactory result of the meeting of shareholders of the Hong- Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation yesterday afternoon, and the pleasant cha- racter of the general proceedings, appear to have given almost universal satisfaction. It is no secret that a powerful opposition Emay, Spanish steamer, for Manila,
·had been organised expressly to oppose Sumida Marn, Japanese str, for Kabe, NC
Norden, Danish steamer, for shanghai, certain arrangements which were sail to
Benedicta, German schooner, for "Tientsin, be in contemplation by the Court of Diree-Ningbo, British steamer, for Shanghai. tors; however, a wiser policy was after- | Kamilekatka, British steamer, for Shanghai, wards adopted, and the, cause of the ex- pected trouble being removed, nothing but harmony prevailed, which must be gratify- ing to all concerned. We quote Bank shares at 112 ex div., which is the correct market value of the stock, as nearly as it can be stated. Of actual business there has been none to report. A small lofof China Fireschanged handy yesterday after- noen at 300 per share, an advance of 24 on former quotation. There has been nói furtherinquiry after the stock. A few trans- fers in Docks at 50 per cent, premium have come under our observation, and at st for the end of the month a goodly number of shares have been negotiated. There are still a few small lots on offer for cash at The Chinese steamship Kang-chi reports teft 50; but no liberties are taken with this Haiphong on the 11th instant, and Hoihow an stock, which is unusually firm, with healthy the tith. From Haiplyng to Heikow moderate indications of an increased market rate
Easterly winds and lazy weather. From Ho before long. Steamboats are remarkably with heavy head, sea and fog, weather as in how to Hongkong mexlerate East and N.E. winds quiet, in fact nothing worth mentioning tervals. In Haiphong the French men-of-war has been done in this popular local stock hamelin and Forward, and the steamship for a considerable time. Hotels are gra- Mainas.
