Commercial.

THIS DAY.

Noon, Banks display further signs of weakness this morning, holders offering to close on the old conditions at 195 per cent. premium for the end of the month and 194 for cash. There are, however, no buyers on these terms. Yangtsze Insurances continue on "the downward line with sellers at 1200

Chinese Insurances are rather unsteady at 220. Both insurance stocks are decidedly weak-Hongkongs, at 1400 and Chinas at 399 A small business in Steam- boats has been negociated at 45 per share premium, and a few more shares are on offer at that rate. An inquiry after the China and Manila Steam Ship Co.'s stock at 120 had not been met when our report left. The Indo-China 5. N. Co.'s scrip is hardly in such good demand this morning, a number of shares being offered: at 2 per cent. premium without leading to business., China Sugars are weak at 203, and Luzons at 1o. A few Ices could be placed at the increased 'rate of 175 per share..

4 o'clock p.m.

Since ndon Lúzons have changed hands at $105' per share for the end of May, and are now offering at 104 for the end of the month. Nothing in other stocks has come under our notice.
