Arrivals there of supplies of new crop's grain are reported to continue small, with the mills each and all requiring quite a lot yet to fill old contracts, hence prospects are not for immediate requirements of further tonnage.

As for return freights thence to Canton, it is extintated that opening rates may be something like 37 cents per picul, meanwhile it is not at present expected that the port will be free from ire and open for navigation much before the last days of the month.

From Doilo, business has been reported doue for Tientsie, a small cargo at 50 cents, and for Hongkong, a boat at zo cents per picul.

There are inquiries, for the various coast ports, which have not as far been met at shippers' quotations. It is a fact worth noting though that the high coal prices appear to have entirely stopped business Japan to Ningapore. In this direction no quotation has been forthcoming for quite a long time,
