TONNAGE. HONGKONG, 3rd June. During the past fort- night a fair amount of business has been transacted at practically the same rates in all directions as quoted in last report. In rice freights there has been some demand for Bangkok to this, but not more than 12 to 17 cents is offered. Saigon- Hongkong freights may be quoted at 10 cents and for small steamers a little better could be done. Newchwang-Canton business is very quiet and only about 19 cents is obtainable at present. From Java to Hongkong one fixture is reported at 174 cents per pical, but further tonnage is not wanted. In Japan coal freights there is not much doing. From Moji to Hongkong the rate remains at $1.30. Moji to Singapore the last settlement reported is $2. For sail tonnage there are no settlements to report. For New York requirements seem to be satisfied for the present. For San Francisco a ship might be placed at a low figure.
There are four vessels disengaged in port, regis tering 5,043 tons.
The following are the settlements:-- Sintram-American ship, 1,589 tons, Hongkong to New York, private terms.
Com. T. H. Allen-American ship, 2,271 tons, Hongkong to New York, private terms.
