IN SOUTH CHINA WHERE
BOYCOTT HITS HARDEST.

South China Is scene Of greatest
boycott activity against America.
Hongkong is principal port and dis
tributing center for southern China.
In the export trade Great Britain
has commanding lead, with Germany
second.
Sale Of American goods is now con-
fined almost exclusively to the for
ctgner and for transshipment to
French China.
In 1895, American -four trade was
3,4O9,64S One-quarter sacks. In 1900 it
was 6,205,000 one-quarter sacks.
This startling decrease. is not due
entirely to the boycott, as Australian
competition has figured conspicuously.
Natives prefer American -four and
would return to it If the boycott were
removed.
Even educational institutions around
Canton and Hongkong are teaching
boycott to children.
The Chinese are exceedingly keen
in trade. 1t is difficult to gain their
confidence, but once obtained no
further difficulties need be appre-
hended.
They buy only what they want not
what the foreigners think they should
buy.
Flour, kerosene, sewing machines,
cigarettes, tobacco and canned goods
are the only imported commodities rep
resented by Americans.
OF 80 houses handling goods at
HongkOng, 25 are british, four Ger
man, four Norwegian and only I'VE
American.
Under normal conditions America
has the lead in one commodity canned
goods.
Australia leads in butter and meats.
The tea trade Of Importation, for
merly vast in It's proportions, has
fallen OF year by year, owing to the
increasing lazlness and opium sOdden-
ness of the millions Of inhabitants.

Have Got a Monopoly on the Rubber
Business.

Business. 1861.
John d. Rockefeller, Jr., and his
brother in law, e. d. Aldrich, son Of
Senator Aldrich have startled the
financial centers of the world with a
coup which rivals the feats Of their
respective fathers in the handling of
money and policies and the extermina-
ton of competitors. The two young
men have followed the Standard Oil
example in that they have selected the
product of -rubber-aboout
which to build a powerful monopoly
by controlling not only the source OF
supply, but the means by which it
can be refined into an article Of mer-
chandise
Already they have caused the loss
of many millions to the rubber trust,
their rivals.
The Continental Rubber Company
of America is the concern of which
young Rockefeller and Aldrich are the
heads. It has come into the rubber
business with such a weight of money
that the price of rubber has been
driven down so that the estimate of
last years crop, $116,l58,00O, would
dwindle to $S2,OOO,OOO If sold at the
last price quoted under Rockefeller.
