TONNAGE.
HONGKONG, 9th October.-During the early part of the past fortnight there was a good demand for steamers coastwise, but at the close the demand has fallen off and rates generally are weaker.
From Saigon to Hongkong rates ruled firmi at 14 cents, but have declined to 13 cents per picul, with little demand.
From Bangkok to this, the rate continues at 18 cents inside or 13 cents per picul outside the bar. The regular liners command 20 and 15 cents.
From Newchwang to "Canton requirements have been nearly all filled at 27 to 30 cents per picul; at the close the rate has dropped to 25 cents October to 27 cents November loading, with scarcely any de- mand.
Coal freights Japan to this have improved, $1.30 per ton has been refused, and possibly $1.40 may be obtained. To Singapore the rate remains nominally $1.50
per-ton.
