Her reception was in every way worthy of so impor- tant an addition to the fleet plying between Hankow and ibir port. The dropping of her anchor, off the Clins Merchant Company's godown, was the signal for the explosion of a deal of gunpowder.

Besides the Machinery, the founders are possessed of ten thousand watches lo various stages of completion which are the cat-turn of the said Machinery ; and material on band sufficient to turn out about twenty-five thousand 1939 more. It will thus be seen that it is not an untried plant which the founders have required, but one which has already given proofs of its excellence. It was only the advantage of obtain ing a cheaper Labour market than can be found in the United States that has induced them to work the business in Japan.
