The wants of the importing markets are not press- ing, stocks are fairly heavy, and Layers prefer to wait before adding further to their already heavy engagements to see what course prices will take. As far as inquiry is concerned there is plenty. There is not yet much business from China. Most of those who have dealings with that market are not satisfied with the political situation, The Chinese loan has been successfully floated. This has not yet had the Feffect of bringing any quantity of | offers, but the position seems now more hopeful.
