the China station.

The year through which we have just passed has been, on the whole, rather an unsatisfactory Das, although in certain classes of goods

business has been done. The general conditions in South China have in many respects bei wore favourable than in 1901. The crops of rice and silk-have-not-boon bolag the average, piracy has been less rife, and the rebellion in Kwang-si has been practically suppressed. Against these circumstances have to be the increased debasing of the ociusge

put by the native official, although in the southern parts of the empire the fall offects of this have not yet been felt; the accumulation of slacks, einsed in some cases by the continuance of the war in the orth, the tightness of money, the buyett of American goods with its consequent distr-bance of trade gouorally, want of confidence in the Chinese dealers and a gentral tongkong. This last has served to unsettle trade as much as anything else, and was brought about by the loases these men sustained in their reckless speculation at the close of 1904, loss which fell in part on their clients in the interior. Thes: falsnit merchants have, therefore, been led to send their orders to Shanghai for execution, and it will take sojas little time before the castom returns

FINANCE.

Wunt of confidence in the Hongkong declare has hoon shown by the great dificulty they have had in getting money with which to can on their business, Tightness of money has been a feature not only of Hongkong, but also The effects of the neighbouring markets, bare, however, been more serious hero, Thosa who have land money bare preferred than risic rather to keep it locked up lending it to the dealers, even though high rates of interest were offerad. A large amount of capital, too, was invested in the heavy stocks which bad to be carried, and this made matters worse, and a very depressing effect was thus exercised on trade. A common oxpedient among the Chinese was to boy such goods as the

could get on ore lit, get loans against those from the foreign banks, and employ the pro. coede to finance other goods.

Exchange has maintained a high oral throughout the year, notwithstanding the poaca, which it was generally expected world bring lower rate. In fact, the reverso hus boon the cass, and rates towards the close of the year were higher then for koms years past, Whether rising or falling business sulfera, and the need of currency raform becomes more and more evident every poor.

IMPORTS.

Although there has probably been an increase in the total valus of these the results have been rather unsatisfactory. 1a yarus the first six months of the year were the best, and fairly large purchases were made of English spinnings; the lower counts were the most popular, owing to the high prices of the Japanese competing yarns. Unfortunately the rise in the price of cotton caused a suspension in the business, but sufficient stack had an bought to carry the dealere throughout the rest of the year. Do. mand from consuming districts has been les than was expooted, so it bee ban fortauata for the market that buying ceased when it did. A large business has been done in Indian yarns, but the profits have been small, and the year closes with beavy stooks on hand.
