New low levels have been reached, with Commercial Banks changing hands at 18/3 and New South Wales at - - £31, ■:/' . : . A surprising decline lias occurred in Taupiri Coals," with a sale at £1 3/6,.a drop of 3/4 in less than four weeks. Pukemiros are a little firmer, with buyers at £2 5/. There was some inquiry this morning for Australian securities, but at low limits. Australian Glass were asked for at £1 5/6, Colonial Sugars at £30, Henry Jones at £12/6, and British Tobacco at £1 11/6. ' A parcel of Lewis Eady pref. shares was -■ offered at 19/6, and of Newton King prefs. . at 13/6. The Noon Call.
