Saigon to Java there have been no inquiries.

As for Bangkok, having regard to remarks in last circular, with the advent of the competition and the probable war in rates between the Norddeutscher Lloyd and the Nippon Yuran Kaisha there is no opening for outside tonnage for the present.

Yangise freights to Canton are reported to have fallen to qu'te an impracticable level, and also from Newchwang business, to southern China ports appears to have gone off altogether, it is said owing to prices for produce ruling too high in the northern port.

Concerning Java and chartering 'for dry and wet sugar for this port, there have been in dications quite lately that business may become practicable shortly, though at first for small or medium-sized tonnage only.

Amongst the fixtures of the fortnight under review there is one of a steamer to load salt from Honcahé Bay, to this port at 17 cents. General chartering is otherwise conspicuous by its absence, though on time basis three fix- tures for short terms have been affected.

Coal charters there have been from Hongay to this port, prompt, at $1.25 to Canton ditto, at $2; to Penang, end of July loading, at $2.75) Haiphong to Shanghai has had a fixture at $2.35.

From South apan coal port to this there has been business at $40, 530, and $1.35, market. closing at the lower rate with tonnage supplied. Kuchinotzu to Hongay another fix ure has been affected at $1.50 per ton
