RONA-FIDE CIRCULATION.

A reference to the statement be-
low will show that tho circulation
sworn to is a bona-fide one.
1t is easily possible for a news
paper with an elastic conscience to
swell its legitimate circulation enor-
mously. in order to deceive adver-
tisers. by sending out thousands OF
papers to newsstands which are re-
turnable, and which are, In fact, re-
turned, but nevertheless are in
cluded In what purports to be an
honest statement Of circulation.
Intelligent advertisers. however,
Judge by results. and bogus circula-
tions don't give them.
The family circulation of The Star
is many thousands in excess OF any
other Washington paper.

Now, these particulars, population

Upon such bases the United States is.

INTERESTS IN CHINA.

AMERICAN INTERESTS IN CHINA.
The figures Of population show the
numbers of foreigners of various ma
tionalities residing in China in 1899.
The British led, as was to be expected,
with 1862; the japanese came second,
with 2,44O, and the United States was
a close third, with 1885. At a long
distance after us came Russia-despite
her geographical proximity to China
and her active plans of con-
q~uest-wfth only 1921; France fol-
lowed with LBS. and Germany was
sixth, with 1,134. Thus the United
States has almost as many settlers in
China as Japan lad, nearly 45 per cent
more than Russia had, and more than.
France and Germany had together. On
this ground, then, the interests Of the
United States in China are entitled to
consideration in the foremost rank.
The foreigners settled in China are to
be grouped according to numbers in
three classes. In the nrst class are
the British, japanese and Americans;
in the second are Russians, French
and Germans, and in the third all
Others.
A similar showing is made in the
returns of China's foreign commerce.
The latest authentic returns at hand
are those of 1897. In that year China's
foreign trade, 10th imports and ex-
ports, with the chief nations of the
world was as follows, computed in
Haikwan taels, OF, say, 70 cents value;
Great Britain, 5 ,960,OO0; Japan, 3d.
191, United States, 3~0,26S,OOO; In
dia, 21,114,000; Russia, in Europe and
Asia, 19,S52,O00, and all of Europe be-
sides Great Britain and Russia, 34,443
600. It should be added that Hong
Kong's figures were 150,528,000, but
nearly all of that vast volume of COM
merce was merely in transit for other
countries, among which it was distrib-
uted probably in about the same pro-
portions as was the direct trade be-
tween China and them. The United
States, then, stood, and stands, in the
same rank in commerce as in popula-
tion-namely, third-and with Great
Britain and Japan forms the first class
in commerce, all other nations, even
Russia, with her enormous georgraph-
