ports inoreased in value from Tla. 94,624,013 in 1887 to Tla. 105,601,375 in 1888, but two- fifths of this increase is accounted for by the import of opinn throngh the Foreign Customs at Kowloon and Lappa, which only commenced in June 1887, after the passing of the Opium Ordinance in Hong kong, Thus only half of 1987 bene- fited by the change, while the whole of 1888 was affected. We find also that the abnormal quantity of rice shipped from Hongkong to Canton doring last year accounts for more than the balance. of the increase. The normal import trade there- fore showed no expansion during 1688. Cotton yarn is the only article in which any marked progress is reported, and although complete statistics ara ant given, the imports at Shanghai would seem to show that this increase has been satiroly in
