HONG KONG, Dec. 20. 1900 Special Cor
respondence of The Bce.) )-Thc emperor OF
Germany is the king drummer Of Europe
and his territory is the world. He has his
agents in every country his vessels on
every sea, his courers on every road.
Within the last ten years he has flooded
China with trade solicitors whose business
it is to push German manufactures and the
result is that the Germans are getting all
the new business. They have subsidized
their steamers which come to the western
Pacific and within the last few months they
have been constructing river steamers
which will go up the Yangtse as far inland
as from Salt Lake City to New York The
increase in the German houses in China is
enormous. There are number in every
foreign colony and every establishment has
its agents working among the Chinese re-
tailers. Until now the foreigners have
dealt almost entirely with the Chinese
wholesalers and the agents of other nation
alitics are doing so still. The Germans are
building up an acquaintance with the retail
dealers. Their commercial travellers are
learning Chinese. They propose to do their
business direct with the merchants and the
Probability is they will get the bulk of the
trauC
1t is interesting to watch how the Ger
mans work. They keep track of all the lew
appointments, visiting every new viceroy
or governor at his capital city. The agent
takes lot of presents with him and pre-
tends that his call is a social one. He gets
the vicoroy's ideas as to foreign articles
and works him for government contracts.
If he talks electricity the German, like as
not, has a mCdcl of an electric light or tele-
phone with him, and If he deprecates the
condition of his soldiers he proposes to sell
him arms and munitions Of war.
GcrmnuH II Close Corporation.
This work of the Germans is exclusively
for Germans. Each firm keeps its own in
formation as to the market to itself. 1t
tabulates the different sections of its terri
tory showing just what goods are in de
mand, how they should be packed and wha
the people are paying for similar articles
1t ascertains the standing of the various
merchants ana makes up commercial di-
rectory for itself.
III an Englishman or an American dis
covers anything new he publishes 1t; the
German does not. Not long ago the kaiser
sent commercial commission to China
This commission studied the country and it,
wants. 1t took samples to Germany show
ing the different kinds of goods most uscC
by the Chinese. There were 1000 of thcS
samples, 1000 of which were OF cottor
goods. There were many kinds of silks an
