THE SHARE MARKET. Share business continues as dead as the. proverbial door-nall. The latest sensation in Banks has only partially subsided, and all sorts of rumours are still being bandled about as to the actual loss sustained awing to the big Parsee failure in Bombay estimates ranging from twenty to fifty thousand pounds. Opinions, however, are pretty well unanimous as to the blind and lame management which has already cost the shareholders of the Hongkong and Shanghal Banking Corporation so many lakhs of dollars, and when details are to hand some awkward questions to the Court of Directors may not improbably be forth- coming. The drop of the market rate to the extent of seven or eight. per cent, on the strength of an unverified report as to a loss which must even now be doubtful, if the Bank representatives in Bombay know their business, strongly suggests either the rotten state of the local Share Market or a notoworthy lack of public confidence in the stability of Bank stock as a permanent investment.
.
Inquiries have been rather frequentsince yesterday about China Sugars, but not a single transaction worthy of reference has bean chronicled. Luzons are also a bit of a mystery just now; shares are stated to have changed hands at as low as g1, but what the actual market rate is it would be hard to say. Docks are not strong at from 98 to 99, and Steamboats are likewise under a temporary cloud. The latter stock, considering that a big opposition on the Canton river is now an accomplished fact, cannot possibly maintain its position, and a further drop appears imminent. Watson & Co.'s shares are asked for at 211, but there are ho sellers. A sale of the National Bank of China's scrip at 271 per cent, discount has been reported, but the transaction has a dubious ring about it, although it is an undoubted fact that a very influential movement has been on foot to "bear" the shares of this new enterprisa. A few Raubs have been taken up at 80 cents, and additional shares are wanted at the same figure.
The general aspect of share as well as most other descriptions of local business is melancholy in the extrame,
