FREIGHT, MARKET.

Messrs. Lamke and Regge write in thair fortnightly report of 12th insi. :—

Dering the fortnight under review the freight market has presented a decidedly feeble at altade, few inquiries only having come forward. The market both up North and in the South is at the close almost bare of orders, and If nothing unforeseen happens, owners will liave to resort to laying up some of their boats before long.

No recovery, whatsoever has set in with re- -gard to batiness from Saigon to this. After the aixtures of a couple of boats at to cents no for ther tonnage stɑme to be wanted.

From Saigon to port Philippines a vessel is reported settled for part cargo on basis of as cants per picul

Haiphong in Hongkong has the 'fixture of a 20 cents per bag, which works out at steamer ́about re cents per picul.

From ports Philippines to 2 ports North Obica a small steamer obtained a charter at 34 cents per pical.

Advices from the North describe the position of the market as having undergone a decided change for the worse. Export from the Yangtze has practically come to a standstill owing to the long continued absence of rain, in con- sequence of which there is no water in the Inland creaks, and it is impossible for the native | basts to got down to their shipping ports..

'An losignificant demand has been showing for tonnaga to load from Newchwang for Can son, but business has not resulted on account of poor rates offered by charterers."

Coal freights form the only branch of coast- ing business, which does not participate in the general, calmness: The following fixtures
