Commercial.

TO-DAY,

THE SHARK MARKET.

I o'clock. The boom in Punjems, continues, and a large cash business is reported to have been put through this forenoon at from 50 to 70 per share, the stock closing with sellers nt 68. All these transactions are credited to orders from Singapore, which statement may or may not be true; but, at all events, nobody appears to know on what grounds the shares have suddenly become in such great demand. In other stocks nothing has been done, the monthly settle- ments occupying the almost undivided attention of sharebrokers. The Tonquin Coal Co's shares have agath come prominently into notice and are now wanted at 250 per cent. premium." China Sugars are weak, at quotation, whilst Lazons have dropped from 103 to 96, and look like reaching a lower figure. Other, quotations speak for themselves.

5 o'clock.

The rush on Punjoms has continued throughout the afternoon, and a large number of shares have changed hands at Trom 68 to 80. At the close the 'stock weakened slightly, but there were never. theless offers to buy at 75. In other storks nothing has been done calling for special remark.
