The arrival of Hooolows and Pinganeys packed in balf cheats have been unusually heavy, and in consequence for three weeks after the opening, Pingeueya in boxes were scarce and commanded full prices for early shipment. Arrivals are now coming in freely, and at present the market is on the easy side.

The authorities have published an intereating table showing the competition between foreign rivala and Japan's chief lines of export in China says the Japan Chronicle. It is stated that, according to a quarterly report of the Chinese Customs of importe of cotton yarn and cloths from January to March, 1915, Japanese goods were the largest in quantity, all descriptions showing an in- orease, compared with the figures for the corresponding period of Last year-20 per cent, in ection yarn, 24 per cert, grey shirtings, 26 per cent. figured cloths (aya memem), and 20 per cent. Telethe. It is true that the imports of Japanese cotton drills show a Ewo Catton S. & W. Co., Ld. t.175 ↑ decrease of 7 per cent., bot it Hongkong Cotton Co. $7.35 b. would be more ecrrect to group Kung Yik
.14.60 b theee with figured cletbe, the increase on the two together being 2 per cent. Indian cotton yarn ahows a falling-off of 13 per cent, and a decrease is also recorded for European and American cot- ton cloth, while Ohinese cctton yarn shows a steady increase, encroaching upon the markets of foreign gode. The following are the details as compared with last year-
