HE present enterprise has been under con. THE
templation for some time, but the flota- Ilonite Company before the public has been deferred, it being considered prudent that the benefit of the experience galued in the erection and working of the new European-managed Milis in Shargbal should be acquired balore any scheme was finally decided upon. These Mills are now ail ranging, and proving themselves a practical succers la that they are spinning very creditable Yarn which is in eager request among cative buyers at some 3 per cent, bigher price than the best Indian Splonings command. If any confirmation were necessary of the Iscrative nature of respits altending the Spin. Blog Industry in Shanghal we have only to turn to the reports that are at present belag pab- labed in the Japan piers of the half year's working of the Mills in that country. The hali yearly dividends recently reported in one. newspaper as belog declared by seven Mills in Japan give an average retars for six months at the rate of 15 per cent. per annum, and yet Japan makes this handsome return after pur- chasing a large quantity of the Raw Cotton required from Chlaa on which an export duty Is charged, also freight to Japan, and when con voted into Yars some proportion of the product La again shipped to Chins and sold there after having paid freight and Import Duty.
