Altogether about 257,000 bales were available,' but of this -quantity 20,000 bales . were not. offered, and 18,000 bales were withdrawn, so that altogether 219,000 bales changed hands, America taking -8000 " bales, Great Britain 109,000, and the Continent 102,000! bales. Messrs. Dalgety and Co. in their cable message indicate a' slight improvement in values later, on provided' there are no - political complications. A correspondent' of "The Economist" (London), writing with respect to colonial wool, at the end of August, ,makes' the following comments:—"During the last wool season there was a considerable falling off in the quantity ui wool sold: in the-Australian and New Zealand markets, owing to the great fall in prices fol-. lowing on the American financial collapse; The decrease in Australian sales amonnted to.no fewer than 133,292 bales, whilst the falling'off in New Zealand was .48,385 bales, .the ..totalfor Australasia thus reaching 186,677 bales. Of course,. London brokers ana wool warehousemen gained to this extent—a very welcome increase to their business. Strenuous efforts will, no doubt, be made by colonial brokers not -merely to stop this rot, but to regain lost ground. I do not think they will succeed in either the one or the other. Prices in all consuming centres here, on the Continent, and the United States are low. Operators who acted bo unwisely in the colonial markets last year i lost enormous sums, and have probably learned a lesson they will not soon forget. When, therefore, the now season opens with the usual sale in Adelaide on Octobor 1, prices will probably be very low* and loss than growers are likely "to accept, under such conditions, pastoralists who last year made the mistake of shipping to London aro not likely to follow that mistaKe np by committing another, viz., of selling in the colonial markets. On the other hand, my advices prove that many large owners in the various States who realised their clips in the Australian markets last year havo already decided to ship this year, in the hope and belief that whilst their wool is at sea markets will improve and prices advance. Suroly this is a ' wise resolution. It is very improbable that, at the worst, anything can be lost, whilst it is quite on the cards that a pound or two per bale may bo gained. It is. too soon to make any estimate of next season's Australian clip. AS usual, the AuKralian prophets are busy making out that a' iargo decrease is certain."

• NEW ZEALAND RAILWAYS. The "Financial Times" of September 2 says: —"The progress of • the New Zealand Stato railways does not appear to have been remarkably satisfactory during 1907, judging from the annual Government statement just to hand. There was again a moderate increase in the gross earnings, which amounted to .£2,761,900, as against j£2,624,600, a gain of .£137,300. Practically tho whole of this, however, was Swallowed up by higher working expenses, the net revenue boiiij* only ,£6O more at .6812,200. As an additional seventeen miles of line were opened for traffic during tho year, while a further .£1,300,000 was expended on capital account, the revenue has not kept pace with the additional facilities offered, and the percentage of profit ,to capital invented has, in fact, declined from 3.45 to 3.33 per cent. This is, of course, well below the rate at' which the colony can borrow, so that tho lines are actually conducted at a loss, The reason is to be found in the high percentage of working expenses, which in 1907 amounted to 70.59 per cent., as compared:with 69.06 per cent, in 1906, and the ratio appears to be steadily; rising. The Minister for Railways, Mr. Hall-Jonos, in his -report, attributes the increase in expenditure partly to the policy of betterment,'and states that additions' and improvements amounting to £24,000 have been . charge'd against revenue, which might fairly have been placed'to capital account. Higher cost of'fuel and wages account for the remainder, and the latter item-will' probably be a pretty'consent factor in the future."

DEPRESSION IN GERMANY. The British Consul-General■' at . Frankfort sums up the;causeß-of.-the; depMSsion. in'.Gotmany, and states : thatthey aro , the natural reaction''after ,-a".; prolongedV-,'n>o6mJ''.-• "the' American crash;'- the lockirig > tip; ifindVdestrtbr tion of .'capital; caused'by.Avars attd earthquakesabroad-', and;'' in addition the •: high cost' of :'livih|'' at ;.h6me, - thfe'too exclusive 'de'vfitibn-of,' German_<o'apital. v t'o'. domes-. tic",■ enterprises) : . the'■ ; SiciptibhSl''dfiarneSs--.''of money and consequent, restriction' of Vcredit in a country where operations arb' largely conducted with bbrrowed money, and thti disturbance of markets generally by the new treaties. The force,of.,the crisis has, on the other hand, been tempered ;ahd-"its -danger minimised by i the 'more'. cautiousiattitude: of" the banks and |by the ever-growing;.home markets, which tend Ito make -up,' ■ bbfch • tor ! loss of' trade' abroad and : for smaller' individual" requirement's/-'Finally, the syndication of -. industries- r lias : : valuable ; service . checking over-production. "Concerning the probable, duration l of the prevailing concludes the Consul-Gene-ral, even those most intimately) • connected with various'branches _of ' German industry dare not venture an*opinioa;. but there is generally an inclinatibnTttf believe that' if the present depression will-not be so deep as former ones, fie very fact of its comparative shallowness will spread it over a longer period." BRITISH PATENTS LAW. That new patents.law which came,into force in the United . Kingdom recently is certainlyproving- quite as revolutionary as it had been anticipated it' would.'; . Here are some of the tangible results':— . . A German syndicate, consisting of the Elberfelder. Farbenfabriken, the Badische Anilin and Soda-Fabrik, and the : Act-Ges, fuer Anilinfabrikation, with a .capital 0f..£13.000,000, have bought 24 acres of land on the borders of the Mersey, near. Port .-Sunlight, and facing the Liverpool Docks. A German 'combination have'i bought seven acres of land at Ellesmere-Port, ,on the Manchester Ship .Canal. The Gillette Razor Company,, of the United States, are opening up works;.in Sheffield. ' •A' German pottery .company;,have,- taken land in Kent. - - ••• \ A German house. of, .photographic printers are looking for a site or works in London. They'propose, employing about 10(H) persons. ■ A German firm of chemical manure manufacturers are negotiating for a. site 'on the Thames. ' ■ , r ' A German electrical engineering company is anxious .to .acquire'., works in London Employment will;be ;offered for 300' workmen. A German manufacturer of' chemicals is on the lookout for. a_site in Yorkshire.' An important -American company that manufactures! hardware for sanitary and other purposes is- negotiating for a site in the Midlands., ,' , ■ .. i... The Columbia Gramophone;,.Companyhas taken a,factory at'.Wandswortli (where machinery and plant to tho'value of is installed) and 200 people are employed in the manufacture of talking machine records, previously imported from America. The Orchestrelle Company , are. negotiating for the purchase: of. seven acres of land at Hayes, where -the_ records used in the company's, pianolas will .bo made'. Inquiries for sites'and mills at Macclesfield have been made by several firms, and factories are'being, erected at Port Sunlight. This is a very,fine indication .of the effectiveness of ■ the measure. ■

NOTES. ' . ■ . The Argentine Government has obtained authority to spend iG11,000,000 for .the increase of the fleet, and the renewal of the field artillery. It has transpired!: that, the Talue of the estate left' by the late Mr. Russell Sage, tho well-known capitalist, who died in 1906 ( amounts to the enormous sum of 64,153,000 dollars (,£12,830,000). The fact was revealed <iy Mr. Beckett, the surrogate, signing an, order for the transfer to the' State of 667,000 dollars, the amount of the death and estate taxes. I'or the year ended June 30,. 1908,',th0 United States imported 3,371,997,1121b. ' of sugar, against 4,391,839,9751b. in the-previous year or a los of nearly 23 per cent;- Of this total practically 66 per cent, came from Cuba. It is calculated that bv the end of the present year the municipal loans of Germany will have reached the huge total of .£200,000,000, which represents an advance of some £75,000,000 in thirteen years. i The Birmingham Small Arms Company has decided, after a test of nearly two years, to abandon a working week of 48 hours and to revert to the 53 hours' system, tho expectations formed in connection with the snorter period not having been realised. The majority of the employees are engaged in, productive machinery run at the maximum speed compatible with safety. The directors contend that less hours means reduced production, while the charges . remain the same.' Trade rivals have worked 52 to 55' hours* and with competition becoming more acute and a large quantity of foreign goods coming into the country, the directors have felt a change to be necessary • in the interests of tho company and workpeople. Of the latter there, are 3000. The sapphire industry is now such an important industry iy Queensland that the Government has intervened, to assist in its further development. . Some 700. and 800 ounces of sapphires have been brought from this Anakie fields to Brisbane 'and . are beiiig classified'by a Government lapidary." Tho first stops 1 taken in the necessary work of '; a market concern Germany, rather.than London, for a large consignment of Queensland sapphires are being sent to Halberstadt, whero it ia thought fay-

ourable opportunities exist for realisation. An agreement has been arrived at by which the Government has undertaken to ' advance to miners 50 per cent, of the estimated value of the sapphires—the current values ruling on the field at tlio time of export. This arrangement is going to continuo for four or five months, until the proceeds of the sales have been received from Europo, when tho money advanced by the Government will bo refunded.
