CHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT.

BANKS.-Hongkong & Shanghai have ruled easier aud after small sales in the early part of the week at 897), declined to 895, at which lat- ter rate a fair number of shares changed hands; the market closing with an inclination to bay. Shanghai quotes 920 buyers a ex. 73. London remains unchanged at £86. Nationals unchang- ed and without business,

MARINE INSURANCE.-Several small lots of Unions have changed hands at 830 and the mar- kat cluses very steady at that rate. North Chinas have ruled weaker with sellers at 105, while in the North they are quoted at 100 bayers; no business however has been reported and the market closes quiet. We have no further changes or business to report under this heading

FIRE INSURANCES.-Hongkongs have been the medium of a fair business at 380 and at the close more shares are wanted without bringing any further sellers into the market. Chinas 2.48 after a long period of inaction have found buyers

at 106 at which they close steady.

SHIPPING. An unsatisfied demand for Hongkong Canton and Macaos at 29 sent the rate up to 30, at which a few shares changed hands, and at time of closing more could probably be placed at the higher ra'e. Shells have improv- ed to 46/6 buyers without bringing any shares on the market. Etar Ferrys are no longer in 2.44 demand at quotations and close mominal. We 2.43 have nothing farther to report under this 2.43 heading.
