The total exports for six months from December to the end of May are estimated at 2,100,000 bags, in con- trast to 3,700,000 bags for the year before, a drop of 43 per cent.

CANADA AND WEST INDIES
TRADE.
That trade conditions between the British West Indies and the Dominion of Canada are in an en- couraging state is 1 statement made by Mr. D. E. Galloway, vice- president of the Canadian National Steamships. Mr. Galloway recent- ly arrived in London from Mon- treal, his purpose being to com- plete arrangements regarding the taking over of three vessels, Prince Henry, Prince David, and the Prince Robert, built at Birkenhead for the British Columbia-Alaskan service of the company.
The five vessels previously built at Birkenhead for the passenger, mail and cargo service of the com- pany have been engaged in the West Indies trade during a period of sixteen months. They were built under the provisions of a trade agreement between the various Governments of the British West Indies and the. Government of Canada, and in particular they have done a great deal to provide a direct steamship service to Canada for bananas and other tropical fruits and vegetables from the West Indies..

LOCAL NEWS, CHINESE NEWS. and all the NEWS. The Weekly paper that saves you the trouble of writing Home.
After a lengthy debate, and the proposal of two amend- ments by Unofficial Members, the Legislative Council adopted the report of the Salaries Commission, urging a higher standard of wages for Civil Servants. At the same meeting, a motion by Unofficial members for the appoint. ment of a Retrenchment, Committee with the object of devising economies in the personnel and administration of the Colony, was passed, His Excellency having signified his intention of accepting the proposal. A complete report of the meeting appears in the OVERLAND, CHINA MAIL.
After many amusing and sometimes acrimonious pas- eages, what threatened to be a long-drawn-out case between Messrs. Andersen, Meyer & Co., and the Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotels Co. collapsed sensationally when it was announced that the case had been settled by mutual consent, out of Court. The decision, together with detalls of the final hearings in Court, is fully dealt with in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL also carries a graphic story of a piracy, attended by the murder of a boy, and kidnapping of other members of a junk's crew, in Chinese waters just outside the Colony,
A story of a lorry which turned turtle on the way from Aberdeen, necessitating the removal of all of its 26 passengers to hospital, where two now lie-in'a critical con. dition, is also reported in detail in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
An amazing story of the "duping” of an Indian doctor,. in a so-called "engagement" contract, is also a feature of the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL. As a result of his activities, the "go-between" in the affair received a sentence of one year's hard labour.
Sport is dealt with as usual by the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL staff of experts, and outstanding social events of the · week are also duly chronicled.
There is no phase of the life of the Colony or of China that does not receive attention in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL -- the weekly paper that YOU MUST ORDER NOW.
