that the rumour mentioned in the Levant Herald of

ing increased supplies, little business has been
effected. East Indian and common kinds of Rio

pressed, while plantation kinds have not maintained
last weeks rates. The change of wind has caused

meets, which consist almost exclusively of free-
hold mill buildings, machinery, and stock, a little
over £26,000. The dividend to unsecured credi-
tors will amount to about 9s. in thr pound.
