BRITISH TRADERS' GRIEVANCES.

LONDON, June 2. In the House of Commons Mr. Samuel Samuel suggested the postponement of the second reading of the Chinese Indemnity Bill until the Chinese government altered conditions in their Trade Marks Bill so as to protect British manufacturers and traders against having trade marks which they had, been using for a number of years fraudulently taken away

LONDON, June 3. Everything points to a most interesting Derby, certainly the most open for many years. The con- sensus of opinion is that anything, may win and tipsters mostly agree to differ. Meanwhile the Aga Khan's Diophon which has run in consistently good form and has done well in trating slace win

Ramsay. Mas paid said that it was not ning the Two Thousand Guineas has been installed desirable to connect the trade marks question itRLS favourite. Neither the Aga Khan nor Lord Astor, who very different matter, namely the China Indemnity are doubly represented, intend making any Bill, declaration to win, so Diophon, Salmon Trout St. Germans and Bright Knight run on their merits. The field includes a couple of French horses (Optimist II. and Thunder Cloud II.) Both have arrived in England.

Archibald rode Knight of the Garter this morn ing in a couple of six furlong gallops. His Majesty's colt was moving freely and his leg is,no worse. It is definitely decided to run the colt on Wednesday. His Majesty will be present at Epsom for the race. Speaking at the Press Club lunch to-day Lord Derby said: "with a field of 31 for the Derby and torrential rain falling I should put the names in a hat, draw out one and back it"-Reuter.

. Mr. Samuel asked if the Premier had any list of applications from Chinese Japanese and German firms for registration of British trade marks and was it impossible to suspend the Indemnity Bill in order to introduce a hill by which money could be applied to compensate British manufacturers and merchants whose trade marks had been taken away

Mr. Macdonald replied that he thought it was far more desirable that in regard to trade marks law we should conduct Begotiations on the merits of the case itself and not mix up with it another Act of ours which he hoped would be accepted by China,« as an Act of grace rather than a result of a Bargain,
