Business Men Speak of Fillip To Empire Trade.

That the success of the Em- pire Produce Fair has been far greater than was ever conceiv- ed was the unanimous épinton of several prominent local business men, voiced to a China Mail representative yes- terday.

The Fair, they assert, la proving to be the open sesame to the Empire Market, and judging from the results the success will be far beyond the bounds of the most optimistic exhibitor, and will give un- bounded fillip to Empire Trade In the Colony,

(SPECIAL TO THE "CHINA MAIL”.) (From Our Own Staff Correspondent.)

Shanghai, This Afternoon. Hong Kong won the Interport Cricket match to-day by 42 runs.

To-day's play was full of incident and Shang- hai's last minute effort for victory, although unsuc- cessful, gave a thrill to the play. The end pro- vided a sensational Hong Kong victory,

Resuming with 76 runs required and only 3 wickets in hand, Barson and Mansel-Smith batted carefully. Barson added only four when he was clean-skittled by a good ball from Hamilton who was turning the ball and keeping a nice length. (92-8-21).

Coward joined Mansel-Smith but was never comfortable lifting one to Richardson off Minu after scoring only 3. In the meantime Mansel- Smith Ind connected
