"The Salt Bank.
The new building of the Salt Bank in the Capital will be e in pleted eborily and the Govern ment has sot Beide $2,000,000 for the expenditure to be incurred in connection with its inaugura- tion, it is generally believed that the bank will be load- gurated in the coming suminer so, following the inaugure- tion of its head cfice in, tho "Capital, a Lumber of branch offices will be established in the leading commercial ports in the North and South, such as Tian, tein, Shanghai, eto." Regarding the question of the control of the bank, opinion ie divided amongst Fe authori- ties; come ure in favour of the babk being under the direct: control of the Ministry of Finance, whilst there propose that it should be administered by the Salt Administration. Yet another body favours the independence | of the bank and is of the opinion that the bank'should be control- led, neither by the Alinistry of Finance ner by the Salt Adminis- iration,
Foreign Trade of Japan. The Japanese Department of Agriculture and Commerce re ports The foreign trade. of! Japan during the month of Fet- ruary was Yen 49,000,000 of e1- porta and Yen 40,000,000 of imports and the total foreign trade of Japan since 1st January com- pared with that of 1914 for the same period shows a decrease of over Yen 10,000,000 in exports and of over Yen 40,000,000 in imports..
Dairen Bean Oil Market. Dairen, Heb. 27,-Bean Od rose to 8. Y12.70 yesterday, being just 8. Y1 higher than on the corre sponding day of Inst year. Also early stage of the European War, the a'oppage of export abroad. and the bumper bean crops in Manchuria sent down the market to the bed-rock price of 8. Y7 it one time, even when the silver exobar ge rate alto sank very low. The gloomy climax was resobed upon the fall of Antwerp into German bände, and a fear waa passed round that the bean milla might have to hold the outputs over two coming seasons. I is highly gratifying to note, remarke the Manchuria Daily News, that this dieroal prediction has been falsified by events, and the steady and healthy recovery in price has ensued. The goaeral strong tone pervading the food markets of Europe and America and a re- vival of the industrial pursuits in the midst of the War have caused the welcome change.
