of your letter No. 196/10, dated 21st., on the subject of

Formosan Sugars.

In reply we beg to scate that we might,

probably would, wish to use some of these sugers provided

they could be laid down on equally favourable terms to other

kinds.

We understand that a bounty on Formosan

Sugars has beon, and still is, granted by the Formosan Govern-

-mont, but only on sugara for export to Japan. This bounty, we

learn, will be discontinued some time during next year. An

export duty of 50 or 56 sen per picul, depending on quality,

hitherto levied on sugars exported to other countries than

Japan, has been discontinued from 1st. instant.

We have etc.,

General Agents,

The Taikoo Sugar Refining
