CANTON NEWS.
THOM OUR CHINESE CORRESPONDENT.} TAXATION OF FOREIGN
PROTEGES.
The Chen. Kwong Company in Canton," the head office of which is at Hongkong and under Portuguese registration, has heen advised by the Portugese Canau- tato General at Canton that it is not subject to the payment of the numerous military imposts and forced loans by the authorities in Canton, who, however, ars stated to have decided to enforce their demands under all circumstances, in order to discourage, the Chinese mer- chants flocking to foreign consulates for protection. The Portuguese Consulate- General has protested to the Bureau of Foreign Affairs in Canton against the demand on the Chen Kwong Company for the third contribution of a sum equal to its monthly rent but the officer in charge of the 2nd Police Station of the Uth Bistrict in Canton is asserting that all ofcers and employees of this com pany, one of the leading department stores in Canton, are Chinese.

Factory girls in Canton,are resisting the Scores:
requirement of revenue stamps on the time checks or time books issued them, by their players. As many factory bands. change their employment frequently in the course of a year, it means that they mas: use mary books and checks a year. Moreover, the heavy fine for failing to affix, a ten-cent stamp to each new time bock has been put at so high a figure it is regarded as a real hardship.

SAIGON BICE MARKET.
Messrs. Wm. G. Hale & Co., Ltd., in their latest circular, state: Our market nas heen very firm during the last fort- night and on the whole few transactions only have been passed, buyers holding off, expecting better prices. Java is re-
to have hough: for inmediata. ment a few thousand tons Long and Round 20 per cent, but does not seem interested for forward shipment. Japan also has still been in the market for March/April/May, but it has been very difficult to come to business. Our pricen have beea rather, too high and finally small business succeeded. From Europe, and France in particular, the demand bas not been so strong and purchases effected have been made to cover blank sales. News received from Hongkong reports a very firm market.
Faddy-Arrivals are not yet very large and are just sufficient to cover the rica contracts to be executed.
