This great line of granite is the source of practically all the vast alluvial deposits of tin which are found in Siam and the British and Dutch East Indian possessions. this respect as either the British or Dutch, and the deposits are very widely distributed. Of the Siamese possessions in the Malay Penin sala, tin is at the presant time being worked in the following provinces: East Coast-Rat buri, Bangiaphan, Langsuan, Chaiya, Bandon, Lakon, Jalor, Rangeh Rahman, Kelantan, and Tringanu West Coast-Kra, Renong,, Takua. par, Pange; Takuatung, Paket, Traug, Stul, Pertis, Kedah.

Generally speaking fall the mining is in the hands of Chinese, the labour is Chinese, and the smelting is locally by Chinese methods. The only exception to these generalisations are that one British and one Dutch company are working in Kedah, an American company is making a small commencement in Bangta- phan, and a British smelting company is e- tablishing an ore-buying agency in Puket.

Com pared with the corresponding period of last year the exports showed an increase of over million yen and imports an increase of over 16 million yen The excess of imports over exports was more than 45.160,00 yen. This was attributable to the large import of various war materials, sugar, kerosene oil, cereale and the acquisition of steamers. The exports of specie during the period under review reached over 69,840,000 yen. This was due to the large insurance and charterage to foreigners owing imports of merchandise payment of freights,
