will be discovered that British supremacy in the Far Eastern trade is not suffering as a result of the strenuous competition exerted by rivals in the field of shipping enterprise. The falling off in respect of river steamers, junks and launches, employed in trade wishia and outside the limit of the territorial waters of the Cafony, may be almost wholly accounted for by the disastrous typhoons which visited the Colony in September of last year.. It will be remembered that the Canton and West River traffic was, almost wholly dis organised for a period of two months following the typhoon of the 18th September. Sub sequent to that the burning of the flunkow caused the withdrawal of the Largest British steamer from the Canton River traffic.

exchange which enabled cement makers at homie to offer their brands out here at lower Iver prices, prices which we, of course, were forced to accept or lose the business; had it not been for our increased output which effects this reduction in prices. In other words, we did a larger business to make up for lower prices. As for the future, al.hough I do not "care to indulge in prophecy, I can say that this year has begun well, and that our present pro spects are very good, if exchange does not hit. us any harder. The consumption of cement, as every engineer will tell you, has increased, in increasing, and will increase. The use of reinforced cement concrete is growing rapidly all over the world, and should be especially in favour out here where our buildings are so subject to the attacks of white anis, dry rot, ac. The Intary kilns which we added Jas year took lo geethan we anticipated to get la to thank ugh working order, but they are causing little trouble now and their outturn is giving us the greatest satisfaction. In fact they have pro duced so much more than was anticipated that to enable the grinding plant to keep up with with the E Boiler House Extension and New Saw Mill Building principally account for the expenditure of 5.66,000, at Hok Us, where, as I told you last year, we did not expect to spend more money. Another lakh has been spent at Macao, but it has been well speat on economies from which we are making an ex cellent saving in working expenses. As you are all aware a cement plant which was intended for erection in Manchuria, but which had been landed here during the war, was offered for sale at auction in June last, and as it was for obvious reasons desirable that this plant, which, how ever, was far from complete, should not get into other hands, we decided to acquire it for this company.

It is now in course of erection, and twill, when completed, add two more otaries to the present two, just doubling the output of our rotaries. We shall not, of course, commeace running this plant until circum- stances require it, but if the consumption of cement continue to grow, as it has done in the last year or two, it should not be standing idle long, and in the meantime the loss of interest
