Some statistica compiled and published by the Koba Chamber of Commerce (Japanese) afford an interesting insight into the remarkabio progress the manufacturing industries of Jupan have ads during the last ten years.

These, compared with the census returns taken at the end of 1891, show an increase of 1957 in the formor, and of 1,334 in the latter. The figures quoted above speak loquently of the manner in which Japan is taking to the so of labour-saving machinery iu her industries. The meticu power employed may reaghly be classified into steam, water, and steam and water combined. It may seem eacious that a decrease is noticeable in respect of the last-asmed during the ten-years under review. but an explanation of this may perhaps be found in the advantages derived from simplification of motive power. 1 by reason of the decrease in the number of factories relying on bydraulic power is the gradual closing and amalamation of smaller mills: bet this loss in eambers has been more then compensated for by the establish ment of undertakings on a large scale. Thus, although a diminution of 8 per cent, is shown in the number of factories depending or hydraulic power, the remarkable increase of per cent. is exhibited in the aggregate horse

With regard to factories employing steam, a great increase is noticeable in every reset. In factories using steam, there were 4,223 engines of 87,222 horse-power; in 1004 factories using water power only, them were 723 engines of all horsepower and in 107 factories using both water and steara power, there, were 280 engines, of 5,364 horse-power
