at the time of importing the goods, and as the territory is a duty-free
area it is not necessary to check these statements for customs
purposes, with the result that the figures must be taken as approximate
only.
The following figures show the net value of the trade of the port
during the years 1912 and 1913 :—
Imports— Foreign goods ... Less re-exports... 1912. £ 4,633,347 365,382 1913. £ 5,024,433 534,721

On the other hand, railway and tram cars fell off by 200,986£.,
rice by 58,074^., and locomotives and tenders by 29,101Z.
As has been mentioned in previous reports, articles from foreign
countries which are transhipped at Japanese ports and forwarded to
Dairen are included in the returns as imports from Japan.
Imports from native ports.—The value of these was 1,283,330/.,
of which 586,155?. consisted of foreign goods. The principal items
in the import of native goods were :—
£
Flour............110,641
Silk piece-goods 100,408
Cigarettes ... 88,530
Sheetings ... 39,854
Rice (duty paid) 39,087

Cotton goods.—Mention has already been made of reductions in
duty and freight on cotton goods imported into Manchuria via Corea
and Antung. The net result of these reductions is that cotton tissues

fine cotton tissues would be of assistance to Japanese goods in the
competition with British and American goods.
During the year cotton jeans to the value of 23,8072. were imported
from Japan. This is the first instance of Japanese jeans being
imported into Manchuria, as only during the last year or so have the
Japanese weavers been able to produce this kind of cloth. Other
instances of the growth of Japanese competition in the market for
tissues woven from fine yarn may be noticed in the increase of the
imports of grey shirtings from 4,890 pieces worth 2,2742. in 1912
to 48,830 pieces worth 23,6022. in 1913, and in the import of 29,940
pieces of white shirtings valued at 22,1012. in 1913.
The imports of cotton goods from the United Kingdom show
substantial increases as compared with previous years.
Cotton yarn.—Japanese cotton yarn again shows an increase of
about 1,000,000 lbs. Imports from India and the United Kingdom
show an improvement as compared with 1912.

The value of beans exported declined by 37,322?.
Exports to foreign countries.—The total value of produce of local
origin exported to foreign countries was 4,634,759?., an increase of
1,613,941?. as compared with 1912.
Of the total exports of native goods to foreign countries—4,634,759?.
(including re-exports)—the principal share fell to Japan, which took
nearly 80'5 per cent., followed by Corea with a little over 5 per cent.,
Belgium with 4'24 per cent., Hong-Kong with 2'6 per cent., and the
Straits Settlements, Russia (Pacific ports), and the United Kingdom
with a little over 1 per cent. each.
As in the case of imports, exports to Japan include goods sent to
that country for transhipment.
Exports to native ports.—Exports to native ports totalled 1,395,270?.,
as compared with 1,387,297?. in 1912. The exports consist principally
of coal, beans, bean cake, bean oil, silk and seeds of various kinds...”
