Articles showing a Japanese predominance amounted to 4777,807, against a British share of £339,685. Up- words of three-fourths (77.5 per cent.) of our sales to Chint consisted of goods stipplied by the United Kingdom to a value (£0.371,679) nearly 24 times as great as thown from the United States of Aneries, Germuty; and' Tupan com. binud (2683,243), 'In face of these facts, can it be maintained with soberness that Japaneso competition in China is as yet either strenuous & menacing to British trade interests ?
