HONGKONG, 12th January.-Only a comparatively few fixtures have been reported during the past fort- night and rates generally show a decline.
From Saigon to Hongkong, 14 cents per picul is the nominal rate and the demand for tonnage is not likely to begin much before 3/4 weeks hence. There is no enquiry from this port for either Java, Singa- pore, or Japan,
- myte
From Bangkok to this there is little or no de- mand, the rate remaining 21 cents outside or 26 cents per picul inside the bar.
Japan coal freights have weakened to $1.55 per ton Hongkong, to Singapore $2.50, and from Mororan to this $2.50 per ton.
Sailing tonnage. -Another vesel has been fixed $10 $10, sales & sellers hence to Callao for prompt loading at about 20s. per $100 105
ton of 51 cubic feet, and one has just left for Sin- gapore to take up a charter for New York. Hence to New York there is no enquiry for ready vessels.
There are five vessels disengaged in port, regis- tering 5,040 tons.
