Tsingtan's Trade Aren,

A few years ago 11 was pro- phesied that, with the develop ment of the Shantung railway system. Tsingtan would progrese so rapidly that Tientsin, if not Shanghai, would soon be out- classed, hut, to quote from the British Vice-Consul at Teing'ao, The extended use of the Tien- tein-Pakow Railway has not affected the Taingtan trade to any great extent, as the distriota opened up by this line are mainly served from Tientsin from the north and Chiakiang or Nanking. from the south." The fear that the development of the railway system would enable Tsingtan to poach on Tientein's southern trade area has certainly been falsited, and there is quite as much reason for suggesting that the reverse operation will take place. The westward extension of the Shantang railway may add portions of southern Chihli and Shansi and northern Honan to' the Tsingtan trade ares, but it will probably always be found that the Tientsin-Pukow Railway will be Tsingtau's commercial boundary, and that the progress of her imports and exporta depends almost entirely on the devolopment of the mar. ets and resources of Shantung.

Expert Forecasts on the War. We do not, of course, agree with the conclusion that German. resources are greater than those of Great Britain. They are not any. thing like so great neither in men nor in money The German Army is and always was larger than that of Great Britain just as the British Navy was and is larger than that of Germany. On land Great Britain would not,venture, unless under extreme pressure, to oppose singly so overwhelming and so well-equipped a force and Germany is obviously doing her utmost to keep her Navy out of the reach of the British Navy at the present time. Germany al- most from the beginning of the war has been using her entire resources, while the resources of the British Empire have so far. Telephone No. 1683. merely been touched on the sur- face. As we have stated we place little reliance upon prophecies of any kind, bat, nevertheless, we have no doubt whatever that it ie merely a matter of time--perhaps not a very long space of time- when Germany will be compelled to sae for peace. Her arroganco bes raised a force against her that will not rest until she is com pletely defeated.
