Neser Robert Barbour and Brother, Ltd., write in their monthly market report: On the whole there has been a less responsive froling in the market, which, during the latter portion of the month, developed into something of a gradual pause, and spinners and manufacturera have found a lessening of practic- able business compared with January. The natural hardening of prices owing to the improve- ment in the position of producere, to Esy nothing of the increased cost due to dearer coal and the serious rise in flour, allow, and other ingredients which it is: estimated average about 10 per cant., and the fairly full In'es which bad to be paid for anything wanted, hats, in the i absence of any special stimulus, rather tended to encourage hesitation pending further de velopments. The advance and. upward trend of the war risk premium in view of Germany's piralical threats and action, the possibility of this country feing! forced to delire enton ..traband and the efft ot auch action would have on its value, the ad- vent of the Lever Law in America aimed against gambling in fatures, but with its possible in- cidence as a handicap on legiti- male trading as yet unknown, have all combined to introduce. an unsettling infinonce.

Dutch Indies Salt Monopoly. The Government talt monopoly in Netherlands India bas now been converted into a distinct department entitled the "Zoutre- gie" department, the fanctions of which comprise (a) the pic duction and purchase of crude Balt, (b) the commercial treatment and packing of the crude product, (c) transport and storage of the orade and prepared product to and at the places of sale, (d) and the selling of the salt.
Bean Oil from Feagtien. In response to the inquiries of the Revenue Department, be authorities of Fengtien bave sub- mitted a report on the bean oil trade in Fengtien. According to the report, the output for export of Yingkow alone amor.nts to more than 100,000 piculs each year, mainly for ecusumption in Koesia. In recent years, however, owing to the increased freight rates for transportation and the levy of a new tax, the trade has mande no progress. The report, therefore, suggests that steps should be taken to assist the merchants by either reducing the freight rates or abolishing some of the miner taxes imposed on the bean and ita by-producte. The proposal has been favourably received by the Department, and delegates have been dispatched to which direction the Basialanoa may be given
