At the beginning of the week the depreciation was over 17 per cent, and it fell in two days to 11. By the end of the week it had again reached to over 14. For some time Fast the exchange shops have given ten ten-cent pieces and seventeen or eighteen cents and at times a little more for every paper dollar. For silver dollars they have given only alittle more than half that amount. A paper promise to pay a silver doller is of more value to them, apparent❤ Jy, than the silver dollar itself.

Eastern Mongolia, Shantung, the Yangtaze Valley and Fukien." We published yesterday from our own correspondent in Peking a
telegram which con- veyed the information that the Japanese Minister had declared that the report in direnlation exaggerated the actual facts, and he specifically stated that no territorial concessions had been asked for by Japan. This assur azce, we think, may be accepted without the slightest reservation, for in view of Japan's pledges to the Powers on this subject, and having regard also to the fact that the great war in which Japan bas so successfully participated, originated so far, at least, se Great Britain and Japan are con- cerned in Germany treating solemn international agreements as scraps of paper," it is inconceivable that Japan would besmirch her national honour, and forfeit the world's respect by similar action..
