TONNAGE. HONGKONG, 16th December.-During the past fortnight there has been a good demand for tonnage and a considerable number of settlements are reported, but there is very little change to be noted in rates. Freights from Saigon remain about as last quoted, but, except to Singapore, for which some fixtures have been made at 11 cents, there has been very little doing and so Hongkong trade shows no sign of re viving at present. Bangkok business remains at a standstill and four regular liners are reported fixed for voyages in other directions: From Java and Philippines there is little or no enquiry for tonnage. Japan coal freiglits remain as last quoted, viz., $1.20 to Hongkong and $2.10 for Singapore, and at these figures further tonnage could probably be obtained. In sailing tonnage two settlements are reported for. New York, and for San Francisco two ships have been fixed, rates for all private at present For Callao the Lothair has been settled.
