THE COTTON SPINNING induş- TRY IN CHINA.
What may, we think, be taken az an aminous "sign of the times" is to be Found In, the form of a paragraph published by the Japan Mail a few days ago. In this paragraph, which will be found in another part of this issue, we are reminded that the Japanese syndicate known as the Shanghai Spinning Company, after purchasing a site for a large cotton mill which it was proposed to erect at Shanghai, decided to suspend operations until the results of the negotiations connected with the new Commercial
Treaty with Chins could be definitely ascertained, the promoters of the enter prise deeming it unwise, and likely to lead | to great losses, to push on with their scheme untess full effect be given in [1181 the Commercial Treaty to Clause 4 of Article VI of the Treaty of Shimonoseki, otherwise the Li-Ito Treaty of Peace, which reads as follows"Japanese subjects shall be allowed to freely carry BLUE on manufacturing Industry at the several

STANSBURY WINS HANDS DOWN.
LONDON, July 15th. Stansbury (Australian) won the sculling match against the English champion, C. R. Harding, on the Thames with the greatest ease, coming In eight lengths ahead of his opponent. Stan- bury got away with a light lead at the start and gradually focressed it throughout the race. He started off at a tremendous pace, and Hammersmith Bridge was reached la á valnates 17 seconds.

That the Chinese, who have all along tried to evade giving full effect to this clause in the treaty, have scored a point over their Japanese rivals is now well known, for the clause in the commercial compact dealing with this important point has been left out by mutual consent and, presumably in consequence thereof, the Japanese Spin- ning Company has, it is stated; been advised to sell its property In Shanghai. The object of the Chinese is clear. They desire to be able to levy taxes on goods manufactured in China while in transite from the place of manufacture to Inland, marts just as they do all over China on goods covered by Transit Passes. Moreover, the Chinese have themselves some cotton mills in which some high officials are "interested,” and in the near future there may be more of them, so It would be highly inconvenient to give to the products of foreign factories the same privilege, że, Immunity from likín, as they are believed to be giving to the goods turned out of Chinese-owned factories. The Arahi, It may be added, asserts that an excise duty" of 5 per cent will be levied on goods manufactured in China, but the details of that arrangement are, it says, left to be settled later. It may be assumed that the Japanese capitallats who Intended to embark in cotton mill enterprises In China are in the confidence of their Government, hence the "tip" to sell as soon as it was found ad- visable to omit the much disputed article from the final draft of the new treaty.

An easy victory for the novice, would be premature to say very much about the new treaty at this juncture, but judging by present appearances It would appear Shimonoseki in May, 1894, have been that the "concessions" exacted at shorn of most, if not all, of the brilliance that dazzled Westerners, led to hopes The Purest Ingredients only are used, and the of a rapid expansion of trade with atmost Care and Cleanliness exercised in the the Celestial Empire, and the belief that Manufacture throughout.
