I salca, li buyers, s sellers. There have been no marked features Id tliQ sbare market daring the put week. . Generally prices have been maintained in ' investment stocks. On the Molyneuz there has been a very high river with consequent suspension of dredging operations. The majoi ity of the dredges in other parts have only resumed operations this week, ho returns are not yet available. On the West Coast the Nel<on > Cieek dredge bas obtained 21ozt for the , week from old ground, and will ttlll have , , some ten days work before she properly opens out her claim. As the d.elge is working close to the upper boundary of > Pactola's CompaDy her work is proving that V ' company's ground, and ehonld the results b« - favourable, will materially improve their value. j We report sales Sash and Door at £5 2s 6d with further sellers at par, at wbioh prioe 5 they are an excellent investment. Sues of , Monowai at Zs 9d; Auckland mining (hares ; generally show reduced values.
