Scotland recently received fame given below onless other-Straits. letter from Kobe, dated 19thwise stated, and where mails are April, from which the following extract is taken -

"It is very difficult to even at- tempt to write of the conditions of life in Japan at present Con- gestion and defective conditions grow daily worse.

Railway ser- vice end steamer accommodation grow daily more impossible. The Dapartment of Communications are working on a budget framed -wo years.ro, and commercial prosperity has caused an immense increase in travel, so that all trains and trams are always and everywhere crowded to suffoca- tion, and accidents are daily

OccurrenceR

"Of course it goes without! saying that the hotel accommo- dation is well-nigh impossible to obtain, and our colporteurs have. mach to put up with besides high prices.

"Nover in say thirty years in Japan have potisl facilities been so deplorable. Any letter that requires anything like prompt reply has to

be franked ten times the ordinary fee for special delivery, and AS for the telegraphic service it is quite hopeless. I recently tomed over a heap of 180 telegramos at the post office, none of which ought to have failed to reach its addressee. Literally scores of tons of foreign mail bags lie in the warehouse of the Central Post Office in Tokyo.

In general commercial life wE Are on the verge of a financial pacific, dus to speculators failing to meet obligations. Exchanges have been closed for over a week."
