japan q Great Trading Nation.

New YORK Evening POST
The remarkable growth of japanese for
eiGn trade is the subject of long report
from Mr.. Longford. the British vies-con-
sui in Tokyo. He says that a marked re
vival Of trade throughout Japan followed
speedily on the restoration Of peace and
the prospect of tranquility in Formosa.
The hopes of a good harvest induced the
farmers TO buy largely. and a rise in prices
followed. The work Of the railways and
eoast.ng steamers increased. as did the
deposits in the banks, and the rates of
interest are lower than ever they have
been in the commercial history of Japan.
The returns of the Tokyo stock exchange
show great advance in the prices OF
the shares of most joint stock undertake
ings. and especially of the cotton spinning
mills. Ninety thousand new spindles We're
ordered for existing factories from En-
gland between March and August last
year, and Japanese capitalists are estab-
fishing mills in Shanghai. The people
hope 10 secure a commercial position cor
responding 10 the military one which they
have 50 recently obtained, commercial
and industrial questions are as popular in
the press as political discussions; the ex-
tension of steam routes, the results OF the
new treaties on trade. technical and COM
mercial schools, insurance, commercial
exhibitions. and cognate subjects are wide
iy and intelligently discussed, and geDer-
ally there is a marvellous development in
the commercial spirit OF the people. As d
striking contrast with the existing condi-
ton OF things. Mr.. Longford points out
that "a single generation ago trade in
any form was considered the most degrad-
ing OF pursuits. and ali engaged in 1t were.
in the social scale, the lowest OF the low.

Talks on the situation.
Gus Klopf. the professional ball player
who Is to have charge OF the Victoria
team this season. was in the city last even
ing. He looks just the same as in days
gone BY. when he used TO play second or
short or pitch for the Spokane team in
the old Pacific Northwest league, klopf
won many friends in this city by his hard.
conscientious work, and when he appears
here in May with his team from across the
line he may expect a royal welcome. When
asked for his opinion of the chances of tie
league being a success he replied:
Il feel positive that the clubs will all
play the season out, and can say honest
" that if | had been fixed financially so
that l could have taken the Victoria team
on my own responsibility, ! would not have
hesitated a moment. The people of Vic
toria love good sport. and from the way
they have interested themselves in the
new league / think all will be we'll Now
/ tell you that we are going TO have
hustling team over there. and Seattle will
have to work hard TO get away with US.
/ shall play third base myself. Yes,
used to pitch some, and play second or
short but nov / have settled down at
third. The remainder of the team will be
as follows: Pitchers. Darby. peverealX
and Pitt: catcher. Fred Kossuck: first
base, Whaling. second base, Tip O'Neil,
shortstop. Babbitt: left field, Downs. CEN
ter, Pequiney; right, Owney Patton
Darby is the pitcher that caused so much
talk in the East several seasons past. Pitt
is a pitcher thai has been recommended
by Billy Lange. Tip O'Neii is the cele-
brated Oakland player. Some people used
to call him Col. Robinson's Tip Neil.
He knows the game from A to z. and is a
fine field general. Babbitt, the shortstop,
is fine player. and has the ability to
climb high. Downs is a Toronto man.
Pequiney is from Oakland, and Owney
Patton does not need an introduction to
Seattle baseball fans" Gates. a Tacoma
player has also been signed by klopf.
This player has been in Seattle on several
occasions. and always made a good i'm
preston.
