The White Wax OF China.

One of the most curious products of
China is insect wax, Of which 1,539,280
pounds, worth $500, 900 in gold. were
shipped from Ichang on the Yang-tse
river in 1889. 1t is q product of the
western part of the province of Se-Chuen,
in central China, where the wax insect
fourishes best and finds it's food most
abundant Early in che spring numer
Gus brown, pea-shaped scales appear on
the bark of the bougbs and twigs df the
Chinese evergreen tree. They obtain a
mass of small animals, like -four, whose
movements are almost imperceptible.
The female wax insects develop the
scales and deposit their eggs in them
and the males excrete the substance
known as white wax, which is supposed
to be intended by nature to protect the
scales. The wax is spread over the whole
branch to the depth of quarter of an
inch. When the deposit appears to be
complete the branches are cut off and as
much of the wax as possible is removed
by hand. The rest is secured by boil
ing the branches, which destroys the
scales and Larvae. The wax is put into
boiling water, where it melts, and, rising
to the surface, is skinned off and
put int molds. The white wax is q
substance of great utility in China.
1t melts only at high temperature and
is used chiefly TO cover candles made of
animal and vegetable tallow to prevent
too rapid combustion. 1t is used also as
sizing for paper and cotton goods, q
glaze for silk, aud polish for furniture.
Minister DENLY and Mr.. Hosie, the Brit
ish consular agent in Se-Chuen, says
that the proportions of this industry are
enormous. Immense quantities of the
wax have been shipped from other ports
of the Yang-tse river, and some of it is
sent across the mountains to Canton.
Minister DENLY has seen thousands of
pounds of it in large round cakes stored
away in a single room. The iniroduc-
ton Of foreign kerosene, which is now
used very largely in China. is having q
discouraging influence on the gathering
of white wax. The industry, therefore.
is not thriving as it did once, and the de-
cline is another example of the great
changes which the entrance of foreign
ers into China are making In many
branches of native trade. = Chicago

House Uommittse's Report ON = Great
Commercial Project.
The Committee on Railroads and Ca
nails Of the House OF Representatives has
reported recently 70 the House. recommend
ing its passage, an act providing for the APP
preparation OF sufficient sum OF money 10
defray the expenses of a survey TO ascer-
tain the most practicable route, wholly
within the territory OF the United States.
for a ship canal from the great lakcs 20 the
navisable waters OF the Hudson River.
The bill is TO be called up In the present
session OF Congress The project is OF great
and increasing Importance In the eyes OF
the people OF the West and Northwest, and
is declared TO be OF great concern TO
the State OF New Nork, and particu-
larry 20 tho city of New York. The
report discloses that. Ia the opinion OF
men acquainted with the commerce OF the
great lakes and with transportation prob
lens. the moving OF the bulky freights
from the West TO the East will In future be
carried on. even more than at present. over
waterways rather than by rail-, and that
the notion so commonly entertained that
railroads have virtually supplanted water
transportation. and In the future will wipe
IL almost entirely out Is a mistaken one.
The fact OF the matter seems to be that the
reverse of this proposition is true, or In
other words that the encroachments OF
transportation by water upon transporta-
tion by rail are yearly and daily increas-
ing. On the great lakes alone there Is
handled tonnage to the amount OF one
quarter OF all the tonnage carried by all
the railroads of this country. and the pro-
portion is increasing In favor of the water
routa
