LONDON, 4th July. The Washington Senate have £nished their stings on the Trld Bill.

"So lat," comicaed Mr. Nakigawa, "there has not been much increase la trade, consequent an the opening up of the new line of steamers between Japan and Australis, but more may be expected. The requirements of Japan in wool are now only yoce er 8000 bales sanoally, and so far there are now only four or five woollen mills in the cruntry, but a considerable develop ment of that industry must abortly take place, Other commedities in which a big trade is likely to spring up are lead for bullets, baues for cat Iery, tooth brashes, etc,, tallow, and all pastoral products. Meat is very expensive. In our country, there belag a comparatively small area of grazing land, and we have to import considerable extent. We are not great meat-eaters, however. Last year the total consumption of Tokia and its suburbs, which have population of about a million and a half, was only 15,000 head of cattle. Motion is only eaten by foreigners; the Japanese will not take to it because of its peculiar flavour. There is a question now na to, whether the beet required should be imported in the form of ve cattle or in a frozen condition, and It is probable that a commissioner from Japan will shortly vhit Australls to faqalto into the matter. The taste of the people for frossa meat has not yet been teled, and that also in a question which awaits declalan,"

Wong Yuk Plog, sworn, said that at the beginning of this year he was a partner in the tobacconist shop, 23: Queen's Road Central. There were four partners including himself and the prisoner. He had never seen the other two partners but the prisoner represented their interests. Witness retired from the partner ship on 1st May and received as his spare $500. On the 18th April he had a conversation with the prisoner in the accountant's room. The pilsoner said that he had made up his mind to set fire to the shop because a clansman of his who had deposited over $1000 with him had come back from Californis and, he had alimady spent all the money, he must act fire to the shop. Witness was very ill and went to Canton on the 17th May to be treated, and came back here with two detectives on the 38th. Wit- ness sent a draft of an advertisement of the dissolution of his partnership.

Mr. Robinson ojected to the draft being put in on the ground that it had nothing to do with the prisoner; but the objection was overruled.

The lad Taeng Wai Cheong gave evidence that he was asleep and was awakened by the smoke. He became frightened and took the box containing the books away. The prisoner went to the shop at night and took away the money.

The plaintiff railed on the letter and defendant practically charged Sonnett with having deliberately frauded him into signing the letter and deceiving him as its contents. As to this there was the evidence of the captain and that of F. Sennett, taken on commission in Japan, walle on the other side there was that of Mr. Tusson. The vessel was quielty and successfully employed up to Nov. 28th, having made two voyages. On that dato she was in Kobe discharging her award cargo, and on the 30 November she began to load, for the third and last voyage, to Nagabama and Moj, two non- open peris, and thence proceed to Nagasaki, and to Keelung, to Formos. She left Kobe with So padengers and a small qgantity of cargo on December 6th. At Moji she got 30 more pass. angers and no cargo, and on the 18th she was at Nagasaki. From the evidence it appeared that on this voyage she had been subchartered by some Japanese merchant and a Japanese, described as a compradore for Seansit & Co., left Kabe with the vessel to manage the charter. After reaching Nagaraki some 150 tons of coal were pot on board for Formosa, and, unfortunately the chaiterer forgot to pay for that coml and plaintiff himsel had to do so ultimately.
