tice, we reserve our remarks on the present extraordinary state of affairs for a special article. Business has been done in Banks to-day at 11 per cent, premium for cash, and there are still buyers at the rate. A few sales in Docks at 50 per cent, pre- miun have been reported, but they were not of much importance, and at 51 the stock is fairly firm. On time a goodly number of shares changed hands at 52 for the end of May. At the market rate-23 per share premium- Steamboats are in good demand, but so far as we have been able to ascertain, no actual transfers have been recorded to- day. The stock of the China Sugar Re- fining Company is rather firmer than was the case yesterday, offers to buy at 157 failing to find sellers. Luzons' on the other hand display signs of weakness, this new stock being freely offered at 112) per share without fearing to business. We |
