YARN-During the first part of the fort- might under review, owing to decline in mate- of exchange on India, the Chinese dealers came forward in the market and purchased a good quantity in the hope of a further Recline and a rise in the rates of yarn, A good business is reported during the early part of the fortnight. Later exchange began to rise, and buyers kept aloof from making further purchases, and market closes steady at quotations. Sales during the fortnight are computed at about 7,460 bales, comprising 100 bales of No. 6s, 3,775 bales of No. 10s, 1,600 bales of No. 12, 325 hates of No. 16s, and 1,650 bales of No. 20k.

STATE-OWNED STEAMERS.
EXPERIMENT WHICH MAY LEAD TO DIG DEVELOPMENTS,
The experiment undertaken by the Gov- ernment of West Australia in connection with the ownership of a State line of steamers is of considerable importance to 13 shipowners, as, if it should prove succESS- 14 ful, some of the other self-governing 53 Dorinions may be induced to embark 4.6 upon similar enterprise. It appears, 10 111 ays the Financing Veles, that when the agreement with the Adelaide Steamship Company, which was paid a subsidy of £4,000 a year for carrying on the south 12 eastern coastal mail line, expired, several 19 15
months ago, a demand was put forward 91 for an increased subvention. This was 250 400 refused, and the West Australian Minis
95., 110 10 15 try decided to run the service on its own' $315 account. The steamer Unu was secured 1,900 as a temporary boat, but since then three vessels have been purchased..
They are the twin-screw steamor on- golia of 9,397 tons gross, built at Trieste in 1901, for a service between Vladivos 60tock; the steel screw steamer l'esford, of 45564 tons gross, built at Ayr in 1901 for 375, 500 Messrs, J. Bacon, Limited, Liverpool; and 8, 10 the steamer Darius, of 3,295 tons gross, 18. 14
