This week more than the average number of trans-
actions has offered in the market for bank shares,
the dividend period exercising some influence. Union

vance. Other descriptions are fairly supported,
as will be seen by the following list of
the week's sales, viz.:—Australasia (10/. paid),
371 ; British North American pa paid), 45 ;
