THE BRITISH ENGINEERS' ASSOCIATION.
PROSPECTS OF TRADE IN CHINA.
A meeting of the British Engineers Association was held at the Midland Hotel, Manchester, on sth it. In the absence of the president, Mr. Douglas Vickers, the chair was taken by Mr. Wil frid Stokes, chairman of the Executive Committee..
Sir Walter Hillier concluded with a tribute to the generous spirit which had actuated Mr. Douglas Vickers and other well-known engineers in supporting this great national movement for the benefit of British engineering.

In addition to educating Chinese in their own country a certain number were annually imported into Germany for educational purposes, and an inffyen- tial ussuciation exists in Germany to push China, and to German interests in encourage and help those who wish to embark on trade with China. Now for the second point. What could the British Engineers Association do in China to compete with its rivals! The duties of the Commissioner consist, chiefly, in sending all possible information affecting engineering interests, of increasing our influence over the education of the. Chinese engineer of the future, of making the Association well-known to the right people in China, that is, the officials who Sir WALTER HILLIER, K.M.G., C.B. would have the handling of large, Govern- President of the China Association andment contracts, and of giving all assist formerly adviser to the Chinese Governance to any members of the Association ment, stated that his only qualification who might he travelling in Chino. The for addressing them and being elected importance of the last point had been an honorary member was that he had had emphasised by a case which reccatly book & personal experience of China and place in China. The representative of a Chinese trade generally, dating back for British firm had obtained a big contract over 45 years. He considered the British subject to Consular references, but on Engineers' Association, in the aims and applying to the nearest British Consul objects of which he was greatly interested, was told that the Consul had no know to be of supreme and urgent importance, ledge of his firm, and could give him no it was this interest, and his conviction of assistance. Had a German applied to his the immense potentialities of this new Consul for similar support he would prob- organisation, that had induced him to ably have been patted on the back, and respond to the invitation of the Council been given every possible assistance. tear testimony to the great advantages With regard to the third point, this which this Association offered to those Association 18 to represent. British who joined it. Times and conditions had engineering interests from a national changed and had led to very different point of view, it should be known from methods of doing business in the Farend to end of China, and its office in East, even as compared with a few years Peking should be one to which high ago. Hitherto, in England, a knowledge Chinese officials would at once apply as of the conditions of the Chinese markets soon as any scheme involving engineering and openings for trade in that country works cropped up, and its Commissioner had been derived from four main should, by entertaining and generally sources:-(1) Official reports prepared by cultivating the right people, get into Consuls, (2) special items of commercial touch with those who had the handling of information published in the Board of such schemes, and all this could not be Trade Journal, (3) quarterly and annual done without money. The numerous returns published by the Chinese Mari- Gernians representing firms in China time Customs, and (4) market reports were drawing salaries of probably any issued by merchants on the spot. Much thing between £600 and £1,000 a year, of such information was of a confidential while by belonging to the British nature, obtained by Consular officers, and Engineers Association firms woull be could not make its appearance in a docu- kept up to date as regards the position ment issued to the general public, while in China for a paltry ten guineas a year, market reports only gave the information and could then, acting on the information which the issuers thought fit to make received, send out a representative. known, He understood that the British Mr. Alcock, Mr. Norman Leach, Mr. Engineers Association aimed at having Daniel Adaruson, and Sir William Bailey their own organisation in China which all spoke of the importance of the Associa- would gain for its members precisely that tion in the development of the British knowledge which special agents obtain for engineering trade with China.

The Association's Commis sioner would travel extensively, and establish trustworthy sourets of informa tion throughout Chian. In short, the members would have at a nominal cost. a competent representative on the spot who would supply them with better. ifformation than was supplied to indivi- dual fits by individual agents. Another feature of this Association of special value was that the Commissioner would unt go to the prospective buyer and say, I can tell you the firm of manufacturers who can do your business, but would sy, "I can tell you of all the best manu- facturers in Great Britain who can do your job. You can take your pick. But if you want good quality and fair play you had better specify one of the Associa- tion's Grms." The Association wants no "squezze To anyone who knew the ways of the Orienta), this position would le realised to be a very strong one. It was the custom to say, and no doubt with a good deal of truth, that “squezze!! played a large part in Chinese commer- ein dealings.

Cured by Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills. That torturing and, disfiguring disease has its cause a an impure condition of the blood. The impure condition of the blood often arises from a diseased condition of the stomach and allied organs of digestion, and nutrition. When digestion is imperfect the nutrition of the body is inadequate to its needs. The blood becomes thin, poisons accumulate in it, and these poisons often manifest themselves in some cruptive disease. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills cure diseases of the stomach, and other organs of digestion and nutrition. They eliminate poisonous, substances from the blood, purifying it, and increasing its quality and rioliness.
