Yangtze Navigation,
In a report on the subject of steam navigation on the Upper Yangtze River, Mr. W. M. Hewlett, the British Consul at lobang, saya that the most interesting festare is: the addition of four merchant steamers to the ran between Johang and Chungking, the steamship Shantung having pre- viously held the field unchalleng- Led. These ships are all Chinese owned, and though it is doubtful how long the Shanghai-built steamers Ta-obuan, Loc-shnan, and Ching-yu will stand the strain the success of the steamships. of work on the Upper Yangtze, Shatung and the new Shahan is undoubted. The steamers cleared a net profit of £13,815 for their company during the season (May ship Shahun, built in the United to November) 1914, and the steam- Kingdom and put together at Shanghai, hus completely fal Alled all expectations Special attention should again ba called to the proved practi- stesmahip service between lohang and Chang-king, and it should further be noted that the five steamers now on the run are all Chineso owned a remarkablo proof of Chinese enterprise,

"The Kara Sea Route. The United States Consulä General at Moscow, in a report to his Government, published in a
recent issue of the Cited States Commerce Reports, states that the discontinuance of trade relatione with Europe has injured the agricultural industry of Siberia. It has always been a country of exports, which grew as the rail- waya developed. The chief ex ports are grain and grain pro- ducts, other agricultural pro- ducts, and timber. Το facilitate the exportation of goods from Siberia the local organisations are trying to taks advantage of the northern sea route. Representatives of the Siberian Association for shipping, trade, and industry have gone to the lower part of the Yenesei River to organise the exportation of cedar wood. The association is also OT ganising large purchases of raw material, such as hides, fax, and hemp, in the districts of Minusinsk and Atohinek, amounting to ap proximately $103,000. All this material will probably be exported to the United Kingdom by the northern route this year. The Bourses are founding great hopes on the northern route for the exports of Siberian graio.
