CHINESE EGGS FOR EUROPE.

Paris, June 5. The arrival of cargo of Chinese eggs in France was made the occasion of a formal welcome at Dunkirk to the cold storage vessel Formosa, from Shanghai, transporting them. The Mayor, the Pre- sident of the Chamber of Commerce, the Controller of Shipping and President of the Commerce Tribunal visited the Formosa, whose cargo of 150 tons represented twenty million eggs. Much satisfac- tion and some surprise were expressed at the excellent state of the eggs. Four hundred tous were unloaded at Havre and the balance went on to London.
