THE SILVER MARKET.

The following extracts are taken from Messrs. Batinal Montagu & Co's Circular of Sept. 22nd:~~~

Mr. Wesle proceeded to survey the history of

The Silvor Market this week has been slightly English policy in China from the old Cauton days, and showed that its object was to obtain more interesting than recently.

He did not wish to emphasise this point too much, but he had discussed that question since he had been in England with a large number of people; and while they agreed with him in many particulars, what they relied gonally was:

Daat,

We fear more than anything else Acintie competition in industry. That is what we have to look at; and although we admit that our alliance with Japan has already aloned us some love, it has at least giver as security, But with Aristio competition it is otherwise; it is a question about which we know very little, but we believe that if China is pushed aleag the road too fast we may raise ap sonze new peril about which we know nothing

The line of argument, therefore, appeared to be that, irrespective of what happened to Chine politically that was, whether she disappeared or not-Asiatio competition was the only matter which was of really vital interest to the people of England,

JAPAN'S AIM.

The trouble was that undoubtedly Japan, which was a poor country, looked upon China, like many people in England were said to look прод Gormary, as a rival who was fast gather. ing strength. China was so much greater in potential wealth, and her population was no much larger than that of Japan, that it must be evident to everyone that if China ever became a really great Power, Japan's position in the future could not be what it bad been in the immediate past that was to say, that automati

We understand that a considerable amount of silver will be sent to Bombay by next week's steamer,

The Chinese exchange still remains on a parity with silver, and a fairly considerable business has been transtefed both ways by Shanghai. In this connection it is interesting to note the extra ordinary 1907

He said, in so many words, that if China did not become strong within a reasonable would be necessary for some Power to period take control.
