OUR CONTEMPORARIES,

South China Morning Post:

More American Lives Sacrificed.

Auother passenger ship bas been destroyed and more Ameri can lives have been tacrificed. America may truly look on with astonishment and righteous in dignation, at the work of the Ger man submarine. Only this week there have been indications that Germany'e reply to the American note, a reply by the way which the Wilhelmetiases is evidently in 10 hurry to make, would: be of themont – conciliatery and friendly description. The destruction of "more American lives is an illuminating preface to the reply which is now daily ex- pected and American ambassa dora are now busy endeavouring to get at the facts of the latest crime. We ourselves are not without an impression that the reply will never be made and that Germany would not be dis- pleased if the United States wore enrolled among her enemies. It

would give an excuse to propose peace and judging by the altered. tone of the German press peace. on almost any terms would be welcomed by a large section of the people of the "Vaterland,"

Daily Pros.

China and Currency Reform. We observe that a suggestion has been made in a Shanghai contemporary that the British Chamber of Commerce in China could render a great service to British enterprise if they would propound a simple rohome for establishing an uniform currency in Obins and press it upon the consideration, of the Chinese euthorities. Our readers soarcely.

need to be reminded that since the Chinese Government, now twelve years ago, definitely pro- mised, by the Mackay Treaty, "to take the necessary steps to provide for an uniform rational coinige which shall be legal tender in payment of all taxes and other obligationa throughout the Empire" [now the Republic] the Government of China has sought and obtained a...... crant deal of advice on the sub- jat, bot, unhappily, the state of the currency in China remains as chaotic to day as it was twelve yesra ago when the Government promised the reform. The Shang- kai writer who now makes an appeal to the British Chambers of Commerce on the subject obeoryes that The writers on Chinese currency matters, Jenks, Vissering, and Wagel, have pro- pounded manyadmirable theories, but they are most of them beside the mark, and we must wait till China is in a more highly organis. ed state before any of them can. be put into operation, and de muat ne moretomely instruments in the meantime."!
