Like its pre- decessors, it has been organised by the Institute of Patentees (Incorporated) and, also, as before, is divided into two main sections, the upper hall con- tlining trade exhibits, that is, patent- ed articles which have already reach- ed the manufacturing stage, soma well known, others again shown for the first time; and the lower hall being set apart for inventions, which though patented; have not yet been made in quantity or marketed at all.

sections devoted to useful data together with a copy the Chinese Customs
Tariff. The seriousness of Japanese com petition will be realised when we are told by Mr. Pearse that in one gen- eration the fumber of spindles has increased from three-quarters to the present total of six and a quarter millions. Reckoned in
equivalent mule spindles, they are equal to 8,408,000. Taking into account the
