SATURDAY

Business in home mining stocks to-day seems to
have been almost suspended, and prices are nominally
quoted u before. The call of 11. per share made to-
day 'pan Great Wheal Alfred shares confirms the
rumours lately afloat, and explains the recent heavy
fall in the shares. In addition to the transactions
recorded in the official list, shares in Wheal Mar-
garet have been dealt in in the Stock Exchange at
73; Drakewalls, at 21; Great Wheal Alfred, at 4t
to b; Wheal Kitty (Lelant), at ISt ; West Alfred,
at 2; and East Providence, at 11. As regards
foreign descriptions, the only feature was a fall in
Cobra shares.
