ties will regard them as desirable now. The colonial view of the proposals generally will bo that they represent a decided move in the directon of brightening the game. But what will they say in conservative England. An improvement suggested by the Aus tralasian Conference is that the ball, after going into touch; should be thrown out so as to alight at a distance of not less that 10 yards from, and at right ungles to, the touch-line," There is not the same neces sity for this alteration here as in New Zea- land, where the hustling and scrambling play which takes place between two good forward teams, when ouo of them has got aboul, is a great drawback to the con- tinuity of the game. In ydney, generally. the players bravely throw the ball halfway across the field.

Another suggestion that will provoke a lot of hostile discussion, especially from players, is that the proposal that other officials outside the referee should be allowed in any way to interfere with the game. The proposal is that any member of the union executive or managing committee or board of control shall have the power of reporting instances of rough play. It is highly improbable that the English, union will agree to that. Borides, no self-respec- ting referee should allow anybody to inter fere with the game he is given absolute control of. He is the sole judge of all. /matters of fact, and rough play is a 'matter of fact. If the proposal of the conference was adopted, it would be possible for the refereo and the policeman' on the line to come into conflict Suppose the outsiders said a man had played roughly and the ro. eree, who has seen the conduct complained of, declared that the man had not, who is to prevail?

What referee is going to stand that? Besides, why not go further, and allow the spectators to give evidence? The dings would provide some merry evenings for the union.
Or, again, why not let the outside officials interfere in the case of B glaring pieco of offside play, which the referee kas missed, and which leads to a score! The proposal will not work. There must be only one judge of what takes place in a game, and that must be the referee. Destroy his absolute power, and a dan

A QUESTION OF PARTNERS,
Re the Po Fung Bank, to decide whether Lo Yak Shang, Kwong King Tong, and Kwong Yik Nam were partners in the
Bank.

Mr J. Hastings appeared, on behalf of the Official Receiver, and Mr H. W. Looker (of Messrs Deacon, Looker, and Deacon) on behalf of the defendants, the alleged partners. Mr O, D. Thomson and Mr S. W. Tso appeared on behalf of cer tain creditors.
The action was the outcome of the Bankruptcy proceedings re the Pound Bank ea parte Po Toung Chart, it being alleged that certain persons were partners in the Po Fung Bank, but that they denied
the fact.
His Lordship delivered judgment an follows:-
Teul Pak Yu deposed that, when he went to the meeting of dépositors at the Bank after the failure, he saw Kwong Yik Nam there in the capacity of one of the Bank people and not as a creditor.
Fan Yuk Tang deposed that on 14th March, 1909, he had a conversation with Kwong Yik Nam who stated he had a share in the Bank and said, speaking of himself and others, the Po Fung Bank is our business, and asked witness to deal with that it now owes his firm 35,000 and some the Bank which he did, with the result
frm. He also speaks of Kwong Yik Nam $3,400 more to individual partners in his having been prosent at meetings of the Bank after the failure, particularly on an occasion on the 11th March, 1904.
As regards Kwong Yik Nam's position when the Bank failed, it appears that be came out exactly right. He owed the Bank as he took out all his balance of 83,000 on nothing and the Bank owed him nothing, 29th February, 1904. Besides denying the
