only the man who brings the risk, and pays the promium thereon as the propor recipient of the bonus. The houus system adopted by the China offices is patent to all the world, and if in any cass third parties are interested it is a matter that lies solely between them and their agents. In conclusion, I would nuhasitatingly daim for the nystom set forth above, which gives the worker a fair share of his carnings, as opposed to the antiquated method of giving a to the! mare.capitalist, that the former is the system of the future, and that it is certain to prevail.

"Lloyd's, 27ta Ostober. Sir.Mr. Jukes'a lester, as well as your own editorial romarks, seems to treat the question at issue between the China companies and the so-China Imperial Loan of 1884 C-3 per cent. called 'capitalist' companies as simply one of pium. competition between the matus' or co-opera-Chiness Imperial Government 1885 Dollar Loan
tive system and that ordinarily in vogne. But i really is not so. What private anderwriters, as well as London oopautes, complain of is the temptation offered to agents or third parties, act only to choose the bonus compaziss in preference to all others, but also to pay them premium high. er, often far higher, than those current elsewhere. You will, of conteo, reply that any principal can. by su action brought against his agent, pre- vent the latter's appropriating the bonas (or, a it ought to be called, the return of prominm) dao only to uself, as well as may excess of rate. But it is remarkable bow long the system has prevailed without any such case coming before the law Courts. What we desire is simply that the China companies would pay no bonus to any one who has not proved himself to be the party { who paid the premium.--Your obedient servant,

He posas as a sort of Socialistic anderwriter, and is hard upon the capitalist, but as a matter of fact the China food are capitalists as much as the English, as his own description of thom. shows. Of course, if they can command excep tional business at preferential rates they may well agree to return some time in the futuro the additional or excess pramins with which they are intrusted.
