Hongkong 27th April, 1915,

cannot undertake orders to make good the wastage of merchant vessels through war. Already one Japanese steamer which was purchased a few years ago from British owners has been resold- and resold at a very considerable profit; and we leara to-day that other traneaotions of a like pature are almost pertain to follow. A bid of £55,000 has bien made, we understand, for the 8.8. Hokkai Marn, which was purchased not so very long since for £15,000, This state of things, wholly un-

anticipated before the political

cataclysm of last year, doubtless. accounts for the spurt in ship. | building here.-Kobe Herald,

Chartering of Small Vessels.

While the regular Japancae lines are again in operation there has been such a demand for trans* Pacific tonnage that comparative ly email Japanese fromp ateamora have recently been chartered for such service. The smaller Britiah lines operating along the China coast have all the work they can do, and rates have been advanoing materially and rapidly. At pre- sent there is an especially heavy demand for tonnage between Hongkong, Saigon, and Manila for the service of the rice trade, above

mentioned

- a service formerly largely in the control of German vessels. There is also heavy de- mand for tonnage from Malaysia for rabber, tin, and other pro dacte, for which there is strong de- mand in Europe and the United States. Because of the low state of Chinese trade generally there has been comparatively small demand for additional tonnage in Chinese ports, but as indicated, enough freight has been collected. at various points to render some additional service necessary in the near fatare. Rates are firm, but so far no advance beyond the 10 per cent. increase, which came with the advent of war, and certain special advances on parti- onlar commodities has been con- sidered necessary or possible, Bo long as eastern trade generally remains in its present state the least advanco in costs will result in restricted transactions. The freights now obtaining offer ample retard upon investments where. tonnage can be supplied at all.→ L. and O. Express,
