In mining the most noticeable feature has been the fluctuations in Talismans, in which fairly heavy business was done. Prices realised ranged from 37s 6d to 35s 9d to 39s to 38s to 38s 6d to 33s 3d to 3Ss 9d to 38s 6d to S9s 9d to 39s 6d to 42s to 59s to 40s 9d. Sellers at closing time were offering parcels at 41s, buyers quoting at 40s 9d. Waihiswere fairly firm, business being dono at from £9 Is to £9 Is 6d to £9 0s 6d to £9 Is 6d to £9 Os 9d to £9 Is to £9 Os 9d to £9 Is, with further sellers at £9 0s 9(1, and buyers at £9 0s 6d.

There were also several sales of smaller priced stocks. No special activity has characterised the business put through by the general distributing merchants during the past few day*, but on the other hand demand for various lines is steady and continuous, and it will not belong now before requests are being mado for articles for Christmas trade. Orders which have been booked for the festive season are well up to the average, and supplies should reach this market in ample time for distribution.

Tho fancy goods warehouses are landing heavy shipments in anticipation of brisk demand. Soft goods warehouses are opening up seasonable parcels, which should meet with ready demand. Codfish : Limited inquiry on the spot, with stocks exhausted. Forward market is likely to go higher. Cinnamon Chips: Market steady and pre-' sent basis of price is favourable for operating. Figs Small holdings of glove boxes are meeting with good demand. First direct fruit steamer is timed to leave in a day or two, and orders for further parcels would not be in timo to be shipped by this opportunity. Evaporated Apples: Demand for spot i parcels continues brisk, with limited quantity i only offering. j Evaporated Apricots: Upward move is ex ! peered for early shipment, and in the meßii- { time local holdings are meeting with good inquiry. J Shrimps: New pack shipments will come | to a good market, and inquiry is existent, ! Soflded Raisins: Bettor demand is now I being felt, and spot parcels will not bo more | than sufficient to meet requirements until \ arrival of new fruit. Turpentine: Market firm, with upward tendency. | Mattress Fibre: Latest quotation shows I tao price to be steadier. j Linseed Oil: Cable to hand notifies a de- | cline, and the market remains weak. Castor Oil: On present level, this product would seem to be good buying, and business lias been done for the next direct sailing. j Jute Goods: Market showing signs of more . Strength, with move upward probable. Potatoes: With only 663 sacks by the Alonowai from the South, the expected scarcity of potatoes has eventuated, and this state of things is likely to continue until fresh supplies arrive by the Wanaka. Price now ih £6 5s ex store. The stocks of seed potatoes have been practically cleared, and the demand far exceeds the supply. Onions: The market is absolutely clear. An advance has taken place in Sydney Japanese are unprocurable. The nominal quotation in Sydney is £14 10s, equal to about £16 10s delivered duty paid in Auckland. Merchants are asking £15 to £16. A shipment of Oalifornians "by the Boverio at the end of the mouth will arrive to an exceedingly good market, and these are now being sold to arrive at £15 to £16, in wholesale lines, ex ship. Oats: There is very little change in the South. Business is of a hand-to-mouth character. Stocks in Auckland are on the light side, and pric* remains at 2s 7d ex store. Algerian seeds are now difficult to obtain, and merchants are unable to execute orders. The Monowai has a shipment of South Africans, which require to be cleaned, and holders will then be able to fulfil their engagements. Chaff: The market is easier, and looks like dropping still further. Southern is only worth to-day £6, and local £5 10s, ex store. owl Wheat: There is rather a scarcity in the market. Offerings from the South »re still light. Good business is being done at 4s 9d ex store.

Maize: The only arrivals since our last report wore 20 sacks by the Waiotahi from the coast. This small shipment has enabled holders to distribute the rather heavy arrivals that came forward in the early part of the week. There is not a very keen demand, but, in the face of fowl wheat, holding its price, there has been no alteration in the quotation for maize, which remains at 4s 6d ex wharf for wholesale lots. Bran: There is only a light demand. Stocks are fair; price £5 7s 6d. Pollard is worth jfc}7 7s 6d. Supplies are sufficient to cope with the demand. Fungus is coming forward in small quantities, and in bettor condition, being drier. There has been no change in the price, which remains at 5 8 d for good dry sample. Flax: Deliveries are still very light; but a few more mills are now forwarding their output to this market. The outlook is anything but cheerful. London advices tend to show very little alteration in that market, and the heavy supply of Manila is keeping the price of New Zealand hemp down. Good fair has unproved slightly in price, being now worth £22 to £22 10s, but fair is not worth more than £19, and common £16 to £16 10s.

, low: Very little arriving here. Some j lines that have been forwarded to this mar- ! ket are in such a bad condition that it would ! have been bettei if they had been burnt in ! the country. Good clean tow is not worth over £4 10s for export purposes. Indian Tea: At the Calcutta tea sales, No. 9. a further improvement in the value of common sorts was recorded, both leaf and broken grades showing a slight advance on former quotations. A generally more active tone ruled throughout the sales, and all markets were operating, Russia and the Australian colonies being most noticeable. American shippers were also in evidence, while a fair quantity of Pekoes and Orange Pekoes were secured for the Bombay side. Poor medium leaf grades with thin liquor were somewhat neglected, and were, as a rale, very difficult of sale, and several parcels answering this descriptiorS""ffimained unsold when the auctions closed. Darjeelings with ordinary clip we*e likewise bard to move, but; all attractive parcel*., met with spirited competition, und sold at full rate*. Hankow shipper* showed considerably mors keenness.

and flavoury Darjeeling fannings and dusts touched last year's level of value, the better* Assams, with good leaf and strong liquor, being also more sought after. Quality was, as a ;rule, much on a par with last sales; thin, disappointing teas predominating. The improvement in Dooars kinds was maintained, and a few Assams and Darjeelings of good standard were catalogued. KAURI GUM. The arrivals for 10 days of September are 181 tons, as against 204 tons for the same time in September, 1907, showing a deficiency of 23 tons. This makes the shortage for the year so far, 1530 tons, as in 1907 5614 tons came forward, whereas only 4084 tons have reached here this year. The market is still exceedingly quiet, and business since our last report has been, restricted to very few grades, principally in dark gums. Pale select is selling slowly, with very little offering. Ordinary: There is not the same demand for good rescraped, and inferior parcels are without purchasers. There is scarcely any inquiry for superior three-quarter-scraped, but the quantity obtainable here at the present timo is not very much. Medium ordinary is selling slowly. Washed nuts are not wanted. Clean chalk with heart in it is salable. Poor white swamp is not moving off. s East Coast: Very little coming forward. Ihero is a total absence of buyers at present, unless brokers are willing to bring their ideas of values down considerably, which would doubtless tend towards sales. Black: Rescraped is selling, and bold lumps, sound and well-cleaned, together with well got up parcels of three-quarter-scraped steel, are meeting with a fair demand. Mired lots are difficult to dispose of. Streaky is being quitted in small lines. Hard nuts aro also in bette.- favour, and black sugar continues to sell on arrival. Bush : The demand is still confined to pale rescraped; other grades are difficult to quit, even at low prices. Bled bush is acumulatlii g. Chips and Dust: Bright chips and dust are salable. Ordinary emps and diggers' ordinary chips and dust are without inquiry. Black riddhngs, black seeds, and coarse black oust, if in dry condition, continue in fair request.

STATE AID FOR SHIPPING. The heading German shipping companies are looking for further State assistance, this time in the form of cheap capital. Both the Hamburg-American and North German Lloyd are very .much in want of money, and cannot got it readily from the public. They seek new capital to pay off their debts contracted for new ships, and applied to the Berlin banks to help them. They got the reply that Berlin capitalists arc not ready to interest themselves in the affairs of these companies just now, especially as the loans raised by them la*t year are still mostly unsold to the public. So Herr Ballin, who is the master genius of these great oceancarrying enterprises, has been obliged *o change his mind, and instead of being as hitherto dead against State participation in the finances of the companies has sought help from the Emperor. Gossip says help will be given, and that the Empire, itself very much in want of money, will advance the means to the companies at the minimum rate, to enable them to surmount their difficulty.

THE WORLD'S RAILWAYS. Activity in building new railways was greater in 1906 than in any previous year. The actual percentage of increase was 3.1, against 2.3 during the preceding 12 months. The same rate of progress was maintained in 1907, while the figures so far for 1908 indicate a material decrease in activity. Queensland still holds the lead in the proportion of railways to population, as she possesses rather over 70 miles per 10,000 inhabitants, while Belgium has the largest mileage in proportion to area, as there is one mile of railway for eaoh 2.47 squara

miles of territory, which is more than double the mileage for the same area of Grexfc Britain and Ireland. The tot*] length of lines completed to the end of 1906 is set down at 580,277 miles. The approximate cost of sil r?A« wa s ,B round figures is ostimtied at boOO millions of pounds. FROZEN MEAT SHIPMENTS.
