THE ASSASSINATIONS AT BERAWEJO. The dastardly attempt on the life of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand, heir- apparent to the throng of the Austrian Empire, which resulted in his death, and that of his wife, the Duchess of Huhenelbe, at Serawejo on Sunday last has caused general consternation, whilst arousing profound sympathy with the agen Emperor Franz Josel. The words he uttered on receiving the news, “Then I am to be spared nothing," will have found a ready echo in every breast, sul it is to be hoped that, in spite of his receut severe illness, he may have strength to bear this last heavy blow with the same fortitude he displayed in the many heavy trials of his past life, May he be spared a few more years, and happier ones, in which to prepare the present heir-presumptive, the Archduke Charles Franz Josef, who is only in his twenty seventh year, and has so far taken uv part in politics, for the difficult task and the heavy responsibilities of reigning- over so heterogeneouts an empire as the Austrian one.
Strange to say, the news of the murder has had no effect on the Stuck Exchanges, which remain firm, a sign that the Com- mitments are small and that complete confidence is, folt in the wisdom of the different governments to prevent this outbreak of fanaticism having more Inactivity con

The "Organ of the Associated Industri- article on trade with Australia from which I take the following. It appears that Australia with an area of 8.3 million square kilometres but with only 8 million inhabitants imported in 1919 from Europe and the United States goods of the value of 1,562 million marks, or 231 millions more than in the previous year: her imports at present exceed those of the Chinese empire with its 150 million inhabitants by 378 million marks and population of those of Japan with s 54 millions by 470 million. This proves once more that it is the European portion of the population oversea, and not the natives, who are the chief consumers and that the development of trade depends The importance of the upon theu Australian markets has so far not been sufficiently recognized in this country, which is to be regretted, all the more as & considerable number of Germans have already made their homes over there.. Great Britain and the United States are getting the lion's share of the business, only 71 per cent. of the imports, of the value, say, of 59 million marks, having been received from this country in 1912 and only about 3 per cent. altogether from France, Belgium and Italy; in the following year the figure was M. 103 millions, a slight, if not a very marked, It is quite natural that, advance. Australia being part of the British empire, to which, next to Canada, emigra tion from the mother country chiefly flows, should give the preference to English goods; at the same time it is to be regretted that such ignorance with regard to her buying capacities should still prevail in Germany as the above figures indicate. The Panama Canal will give the United States a further advantage over Europe in dealing with Australia, as it will reduce the distance from New York to Sydney from 14,148 miles by way of Suez to 9,811 and to Wellington from 18,200 to. 8,972.
