In normal times, the near approach of the Chinese New Year gonerally bring about a virtual suspension of trade, but at the present time, owing to the apparent, holpless- noss of the Kwongsung provincial authorities to protect the trade routes, "matters are made much worse by the fact that the dealers: are afraid to forward goods in the interior, where piracy and highway robbery are of daily ,000urrences. The only market
to which at presont goods are being forwarded is that of Yunnan.
