THE PACIFIC FLOUR TRADE
AMERICAN OPINION.
|
Foreign firms from here have been selling in Bangkok itself, but at prices that can only be called ruinous to the sellers, who, however, hope by this means to indroduce their marks.
Singapore supplies the bulk of Dyed Yard to Slam and although Owiss dyes find a market the Continental is not in favour on its merits, but there has been a trade done in foreign yards with misleading tickets as regards | lengths, and buyers on the East Coast are now more careful to purchasing?A
While merchants, and dealers obtain more profit from such goods, it has a demoralining effect on the market, and is bound in time to effect its own cure when buyers generally be come aware of the fraud.

It is noted that Foreigners are able to quate through rates to Bangkok by German Lines which places the Continent in a more favour

It is probably this personal alarm that has Riven the latest stimulus to the proposals of the Throne te effect the removal of the social and official barriers between the two classes of the people. The decree issued on August 9 in the name of the Empress Dowager, com- anding officials both in Peking and in the : provinces to report on the present position be
tween Manchus and Chinese and to make sug- gestions for the removal of the evils of racial jealousy, reflects, frue anxiety to do away with causes of offence in spite of the pretentious platitudes with which it opens. On the other hand the attitude of genuine reformers on the old controversy between Chinese and Manchus same subject Indicates that in their opinion the
has a distinct bearing on the somewhat parlour condition of China to day. The necessity of ablishing the favoured position of Manchus, ly by the Viceroys Yuan Shih-kai and Chang officials and others, has been urged successive Chih-tung, by the Governor of Soochow and by others. Already the effect of this campaign is stated to have been seen in the appointment of a Chinese, Chang Jen-chun, as Viceroy al Canton. in succession to H.E: Tsèn Chun.

"Mr. Takahuchi, represen ing the Osaka Sho en Kaisha, who was in Seattle several months age, began negotiations with the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul to operate a line of steamships in connection with the railroad. The Osaka Shosen Kaisha does a large coastwise business in Japan. It has a large fleet of ships plying between ports in the Orient, and when it was proposed to build `a number of steamships for the American trade,

There are many important details to be settled yet. It has been proposed to organize a new company to operate the new line which will be financed by the Osaka Shaven Kaisha and the Chicago, Milwaukee v St. Paul, nl- though that part has not been definitely decided upon. It has been proposed to DAME the new company the-Japanese Mar- cantile. Steamship Company.

BANKRUPTCIES..
Dealers were severe sufferers, having had to take deliveries slowly, and when the dollar was fixed at 7/4 some were hard hit and bank upicies were of frequent occurrence.
The al liabilities as far as can be ascer tained reached a total of only $1,120,000, of which probably a third is recoverable.
A little less than half of this amonal fell on Continental firms, British houses accounting for about $170,000-and Chinese, native money lenders, and Jews for the remainder..
Considerable caution was exercised later on in giving credits and the market is all the stendier for the weeding out process entailed.
It is generally conceded that 1907 gives pro- mise of a more satisfa tory year..

But if we accept the position from the time-serving acquiescence of its most of this movement as reports from the Capital represent it, we find that already a sharp line of cleavage between Manchus and Chinese has made itself felt.
