Commercial.

wrote, has been in connection with the stock of the China Sugar Refining Com- pany, Limited. At the reduced rate of 157 a fair amount of shares have changed hands, but the stock is not particularly firm, and there are still sellers at the price.

Business has been booked in Union. Insur- ance scrip at 1,675, an zulvance of goon pre- vious quotation; and there exists a healthy demand for China Traders at 1.625. China Fires have been offered at 2921; but as would-be buyers refused to advance on 290, holders eventually came in terms and a small number of shares were transferred at that price. There are, however, more buyers at 290. Hotels are offered at 104 without finding purchasers, but Luzons are No other slightly in demand at 116. business, or changes worthy of special note have occurred.
