The success of other public companies in Shanghai and Hongkong, und'the evidence of a large sum of money seeking invest- ment in China, encostage the belief that the proposed Capital for this Bank will be readily anbscribed; many influential antire merolanta bave already come forward as notive promuters and supporters of the undertaking, and the Committee lank for a very valuable constituency from Chinees
