wanted from Bugimara. He might have eight thousand pounds of this or a couple of thousands of another which was of no uso to accused. Sugimura had said that he could got anything in three weeks time but considering it took seven weeks to.] some out from England how ho was to get his supply in three weeks' time accused did not know. On one or two occasion18 accused had given him samples and Sugi- mura had stated that he could get it in three weeks. Yarn was coming from Eng- land, but still accused bad a sample which he wanted made for the machine and Sugimura said he could get it.

In December last year, how many times did you order from Bugimura) — In all probability about three orders, Ho seems to have delivered in December very nearly seven thousand pounds weight and there wore three orders for it.

Are you quite sure I am quite sure ho had seven thousand pounds but how many times I ordered from him I can't tell you.

According to the statement of Sugimura he had a capacity for supplying ten thou sand pounds at a time but bo rocoived from you orders of only a thousand or two thousand pounds at a time-Yes, that is all right; I don't dispute that for

minute. Possibly he could supply me with ton thousand at a time, but it was no uso my buying from Sugimura if my workers could not work it up. Ho showed me 2,800 pounds of stuff he had in stock but if I had bought it and tried to work it on my machines it would have smashed every needia on them, and then I should have got into trouble with my buyers. know as much about wool as Sugimura, possibly more.

THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, FRIDAY, MAY 2ND, 1918.

What was your estimate of the consump tion of yarn during the month of Decem- ber last year? -Well I estimated that I should want about 6,000 pounds—some. f......... where thereabouts.

The number of machines sold up to the end of December last year comes to 783. Supposing half of these machines are actually working at that time the number of stockings or hose made by those machines would come to about 6,000 dozen in one whole month. Then the yarn used for this work amounting to two or three pounds por dozen would come to about 18,000 pounds 7-The machines will not produce that quantity. Say Eve hundred machines. For each maching the average work that we anticipated when we came out was about three dozen from every machine per week. We find they do not produce that in India or in England and a trifle over in Shanghai. The produc tion from an English machine is not two dozon a week. I think we have got in round numbers about three thousand al work for the English branch.

About that time hundreds of people came to your office for supplies of yarn and there was quite a lot of confusion? The long and the short of it is that the production has been so extensive here that it took us all our time to cope with it. We had to move from the first two offices and take a place three times as big. You wil find that as the work went on the yarn ordors got bigger and bigger and we were getting into a position to get bigger supplies of yarn as they ware sending it from England and we were

I got ordering more from Sugimora. samples from two other spinners in Japan.

But I had no time to go into them.

Some time in November last year you had entirely suspended the supply of yarn. for a week and from the latter part of November till about the 12th or 13th of December you entirely ceased to supply yarn - think I have heard something about this before. I think it was from the 25th November till about 30th Decem ber that I supplied no yarn. As a rule I don't buy yarn to give it away. I find that there is five thousand pounds sup- plied by Sugimura between those dates, They make a statement that I did not can safely contradict supply the yarn.
