BRISK DEALING CONTINUES

Share business was again transacted in good volume on the Auckland Stock Exchange to-day, but later sellers of a number of important issues retired from the market. Among investments to register price gains were Electrolytic Zincs, Hill and Plummers, Woolworths (N.Z.), and Peter's Ice. Interest was revived in the mining section and several gold issues changed hands on the basis of recent valuations. SALES COMPLETED At the 3 p.m. call yesterday:—Commercial Bankins.
