INFLATED RUPEES.
The dearth with which India is threatened his had curious and far-reaching effects. The rise which it has caused to the price of corn has heen worked for all it was worth as against Mr. Bryan; and has been painted to, triumphantly, by Gold people in England as refuting propo slitos which Bimetallists never advanced.

GENERAL COMMITTEE TO SHANGHAI AND HONGKONG COMMITTEES,
31, Lombard Street, Juse rith. Sl-in parasance of my letter of the 6th March, I have the pleasure of transmitting copy of a letter from the Colonial Office, saying that the proposed legislation for the regulation of Chinese Passenger Ships" will not be persevered with; Mr. Chamberlain feeling confident that the Associan will discountesince any over- crowding.

Mr. Harman mide a decided bit with bis banjo song and, like the others, had a beasty round of applause. In fact, bad the chairman not put his foot (or lammet, rather) down in mast decisive manner we think the pro- gramma would exally have been carried well Into the next day. The concert was a "moker" lu the fullest sense of theward, clear, digarettes and tobacco beleg suppiled ad s. and at times the atmosphere was just as dense as a North Sea fog. A special brew of punch from the Hong- kong Hotel was ladled out, and the other incidental potables were extcily the things to make a smoke concert enjıyable.
MORE ABOUT SUN PAT SEN. The following is taken from the London Daily News:
Sun Yat Sen to writing book. I met him In the Strand, and he told me 10. He had just dean to a meeting at the Charing Cross Hospital, His laudlady was there; so was the Duke of Saxe-Coborg, besides many other persons. To be strictly accurate, Sun is welting iwe books, One (the material for which way first appear la magazine) will tell of his perilous adventures a China and Portland Place. The other valume, designed to be of greater balk, is to reveal lo defalt the evil state of the Celestial Empire, and how Sun and his associates propere to pat "The English people do not matters right. know how badly China is goremed, and that would help to teach them. Though I am debarred from spreading knowledge among my fellow countrymen, I think I can assist, the movement by telling the people of this country how the case stands."
"But how about going to the Sandwich Islands to see your wife and child?" I asked.
"Oh," he replied, "I have decided not to leave England for the present."
We had reached the corner of Wellington Street, and I paused to take my leave of the "kidsspped Chinaman." But he had a request
to make.
"I have just received," said Sun," a letter from my friends in Americs. They wish to thank the Press of this country for what it did at the time of my arrest, and they leave me to choose which paper I will send the letter te. If you will come to my lodgings will give it to you, and perhaps you Hi put it to the Daily Nas."
We accordingly set off for Gray's-len-place, slking of divers matters by the way. I asked he had heard anything more concerning his Imprisonment at the Legation
The other day," he replied, "the Public Prosecutor came to me and took down a long statement of what happened. I should think something is going to be done, but I don't know what. I believe they are still shadowing me. At any rate, Dr. Cantifa received a telegram the other day warning him that I was silil being watched.".
In reply to a further question, he said: "No. to the East-end, where don't venture pascrupulous Chinamen might kidnap me. Consequently my knowledge of London is very one-sided. I begin to know the West-end pretty well, and I have seen most of the sights, though not, of course, the Tower of Landan."
By this time we had reached Gray's-lan-place. Mounting to the second storey, we entered Sun's humble quarters-bedroom and partoar com- bined. He rummaged among his papers, and presently banded me the letter, it had been delivered by hand, and on the envelope these wards were writion' ; " Give the enclosed to soma London paper If you see fit.". The letter ran as follows:-

over 1133, the rupee is now, roughly, 25 per cent. above its ballion level. The object of those who inspired the close of the mints is, pre- sumably, so far attained. The Indian Badget is relieved, and the official who has to remit a certain portion of his salary to England can parchase his sovereigns for fewer rupees. Bat, when there concessions are made, we And ourselves at once la presence of the dividing line which separates the Interests of the money-owning from those of the predec- Ing classes, on this great currency question. It seems evident that the late rise in the rupee is brought about by the fallure of the Indian bar- vert; and that failure entalls, among other complex results, an addition to the handicap on Bombay, and an addition to the bonus enjoyed by Chloa and Japan, in respect to the growth sl oplum and the manufacture of yarn. The di ferential pastiloo was already estimated at 15 per cent. when Mr. Jamieson wrote the able Shanghal Trade Report, which was reviewed In these columns, not long ago. The growth of the Chinesa demand for yarn seems to have rendered possible a readjustment, which Jazan le bardly yet in a position to disturb. She bay not yet a sufficient serpius beyond her awa requirements to enable her to compete seriously abroad; the mills which started into existence in China, in natural response to the close of the Indian mints, have not yet had time to come Inta operallon: 'so that Bombay still enjoys an advantage which has enabled, it to book con- tracts for his surplus produce well forward Into 1897. The subsequent rise in the value of the rupee must inconvenience some one to the extent of the difference. If "exchange wax fixed," the "fixer" will be prejudiced-banker or R. 5. Gandry, Esq., Hon. Secretary China manofacturer-as the case may be it was not, the contractor in China will find he has to pay so much more than be expreted for his yard; but a proportionate almalus will, in eltber case, be given to the Chinese cotton, for the use of silver-diing people, on a silver level.
It is with this last consideration that wo are most concerned; for the price of the raped will tall, probably, with the price of corn-the rise in bath being apparently connected, however complex the connection may be. The moment India became a buyer instead of a seller of com, the price of corn rose, naturally, in response to such a reversal of supply and demand. Inasmuch as Council Bills are a form of payment for Indian exports, it might be expected that the demand for them and for silver will be lessened in pro- portion as the volume el exports is reduced. If the Government of ludla is obliged, as seems probable, to spend so many hundreds of fakhs in famine relief, drafts upon it from home must be pro tanto lessened, and money to meet home charges borrowed here. We may perhaps detect another influence in the demand in the distressed districts for rupees. One Immediate effect of ismine is that the iyot has to convert his Ornaments into rupees; and the sliver bazaar dealert are not. likely to lose a opportunity of putting up the price of the coin. All these causes of disturbance are more or lass ephemeral; but the stimulus to Far Eastero production will remata. Even the re-opening of ite Indian mints would not close the Chinese mills, though it might have been long before these were brought into existence had the mints never been closed. China cotton-however Interfor in staple—is sultable for the coarse yara that the Chinese peasant demands; and the advantage of being able to buy this cotton at their doors will survive, even if the bonus which
