Chuckle as we may oyer our commercial supremacy in certain quarters, we are forced to ack nowledge that the development of our export trade cannot com pare with that of our Teutonio friends. In every part in the Enet, at any rate, the fact is too eloqu ent and convincing to need close scrutiny, and merchants and agents in Hongkong could many A tale unfold, of what" quaint views are entertained at home by untravelled men-ignorant of the conditions-as to the needs: of the Orient. Then again the stuckness which characterises some of the subordinate officials in British houses, entrusted with urgent ordera would at times make "the angela weep. The conf parison made by this British resid- ent in Japan, between British and German trade methodej should be read by manufacturers in Eng land, so that such wholesome re- form might set in ae to warrant confidence in the future. The manufactures of the old country will bear the test to-day as they have done for years in the open market of the world, but there is a decided tendency on the part of merchants to feist un- suitable goods on a market of- which they have no knowledge, to be anything but generous in, placing their samples before cus tomers and thus cultivating business, and to create a host of petty irritating points which can not foster confidence or trade.. The British manufacturer has to cealise that he has strong and astute competitors in the field to-day; and the greatest care must be taken in the despatch of goods which command a sale and the approval of customers.

Föreign Office Finance. Sir Edward Grey's telegram suggests that Mr. Crisp had de finitely promised to abandon the loan altogether in view of the hostility of the six Governments, and in a subsequent telegram Sir John Jordan was instructed, in view of this, to endeavour to persuade the Chinese Government to disavow the "sotion of their agente in this transaction." W. (the Globe) understand that Mr. Crisp's record of the inter- view in question is that it ended in a promise on his elds not to proceed with the loan without first giving on intimation to the Foreign Office, the latter having previously refused to furnish a letter stating in blşök and white their reasons for object. ing to the loan. Thirteen days having elapsed and the Foreign Odice taking no further step, it was intimated that the loan would be proceeded with and the issue follows the folly of the mixture of diplomacy and finance into which Sir Edward Gray allowed himself to be dragged, and the of how our Go rnment story OL permitted itself to be turned into
