SHANGHAI, 8th November (from Messrs. Wheelock & Co.'s report)-Since our last issue business has gone on in much the same manner as then reported; even though our Autumn Race meeting has inter- vened, it has in no way interfered with the shipping interests. There still seems to be a good quantity of cargo yet to go forward, and steamers both for Lon- don and New York are receiving exceptional support for this time of year. Coastwise:--Although the export of rice from the river ports was again per mitted on and after the 1st inst., the business done has not been as large as was anticipated; therefore there has been no material change of rates, but we quote a nominal rate of 16 candareens, being a slight advance since our last. For New York vid Suez an outsider named the Teviotdale is advertised to load, but we must say that we think it is rather a foolish step to take; shipowners or charterers should. be aware by this time that it is almost impossible for exporters to give a vessel of this kind any support, they having all along committed themselves to the Conference, and even a ridiculously low rate could be of no benefit to anyone. Rates of freight are:-- From Shanghai to London by Conference Lines, general cargo 40s.; waste silk 458.; tea 50s.; Northern Continental ports, general cargo 42s. 6d.; waste silk 458.; Lex 56s.; New York, general cargo 40s.; tex 40s; New York vid London, general cargo 50s.; tea 50s.; Boston, general cargo 52s. 6d.; Philadelphia, general cargo 608. Above rates are subject to deferred return, as per Conference circular. London by Shell Line, general cargo 40s.; less 10 per cent.; Hamburg, general cargo, 35s. net; New York, general cargo 10s. less 10 per cent.; Havre direct, general cargo 378. 6d. net; Genos, tallow 358.; general cargo 40s: net; Marseilles, tallow 85s.; general cargo 37s. 6d. net. 45s, per ton of 20 cwt. for above three ports. New York by sail 258.; New York by Pacific Lines, -téa 14 cent gold. Coast rates are--Chinkiang to Canton, 16 candareens, nominal; Moji to Shanghai, $1.20 per ton coal; Nagasaki to Shanghai, $1.10 per
on nominal. No disengaged vessel în port.
