Industrials firm, miners mixed in Australia

Industrial issues showed strong rises in brisk trading on Australian exchanges yesterday. Mining stocks were mixed, falls outnumbering rises, but gains, where recorded, were usually greater than the falls. In Sydney Bundaberg Sugar was frontrunner with a 50c rise at 580 c, a performance which led it to be queried by the exchange. C.S.R. rose 2c to 584 c in Melbourne. The Bank of N.S.W. rose 10c to 1000 c and C.B.C. and National followed suit with 5c rises each. B.H.P. remained steady at 1125 c, Lend Lease jumped 30c' at 570 c and Hooker gained 8c at 230 c. James Hardie rose 30c at 690 c, Rothmans gained 15c at 370 c and Philip Morris also gained 15c at 1550 c. Myer led retailers with a

10c gain at 325 c, David Jones gained 7c at 207 c, Coles rose 5c at 185 c and Waltons showed a 2c rise at 272 c. Tooths and Tooheys both lost 2c but Swans gained 3c at 185 c.
