Roberts v. Stevenson

H. W. Stevenson took place, Staronso hold a load of 2552 when play was con- tinued and at the close of the evening session he had further increased it to 2813 points. Stevenson was in scoring vein and continued his unfinished break of 183 286, failing at a screw losing hazard at tão left top pocket. Roberta replied with 50, and left double baulk. Stevenson falled te seors, and another 100′ was added Roberts' score..

There seemed a fair prospect, mow that Roberts had shown himself to be in form, Bat that a fine tussle might be witnessed. there is a glorious uncertainty about billi- | orda, as in other matters. Here wan the best player the world has yet known, show- ing that he was in touch with his task one quarter of an hour, and simply going all te pieces for the ensuing hour and a half, There is no exaggeration in this statement, as the figures given below speak for them- selves.

CHINA AND HER CURRENCY.

At the prosent moment there is a verit able rush among the various Provincial Governments of China, each compoting to take the lead in the wholesale tampering with the currency that is now going for. ward. The old-fashioned coppor cash with the square hole in the centre are being rapidly melted down and supplanted by the new ten-cash picces which contain each the metal of four only of the old cash. There ja a ceaseless demand for coining machinery; some twenty new mints are at work, and opper in daily increasing quantities is being imported from Japan and the Pacific Coast of America. The profits earned by the new mints are enormous. The annual gain to the provincial treasurers, after al- owing for a legitimate amount of squeeze, works out at no less a than Tls. 18,000,000. The profit to the provincial officials is, "of course, equivalent to an indirect tax of ilke amount on the people. An in the beginning the pooplo objected to take the new coin. But now that the likin stations have been ordered to accept the new coin and that it is received by the tax collectors and by the cashshope, the people are learning to use it at its face value as a substitute for the fast disappearing copper cash. But this irre- deemable token money is made legal tender to an unlimited amount. A time must come when the Government will discover

at, by use of this coinage the produce of axation will havo fallen off fifty per cent, and they will be compelled to double the

axes or put up with a reduced revenue.

Still more confusion has been introduced. by the absence of any general standard by the various mints ; some of the new ten-cash pieces represent a copper-value of only three caab other are brass pure and simple, not worth two cash. Each mint follows its own swoot will and a competition in dobase- ment may ere long bring the value down tó and cash. A universal, honest, and uni- form comaga is thus farther off than ever; ops in which the minting profit on tokens abould noorma to the whole Empire, with acknowledged and fixed limitations, Tinies

Before...

the Full Court, this morning, their Lordships Mr F. T. Piggot (Chief Justice) and Mr A, G.

THE LAW OF EXTRADITION. Accused had been committed, in the Co. lony. It was for the Governor of the Colony when passing the Ordinanca which is comp lementary to the Treaty to determine on what amount of proof of their guilt fugitives should be surren dored and by the Ordinance, action 10, it was determined that prima lacto proof of their guilt should suffice-in other words, that proof sufficient to put a man on his trial at the Supreme Court for an offouce if committed in the Colony should be suffi olent to require a Magistrate to commit a fugitive to await the further order of the Governor upon a requisition from the Government of China. It is conceded that this Court can adjudicate upon the validity The Attorney General (Sir Henry Ber-of any Ordinance of the local Legislature, keløy) and Mr H. E.

The points were the 2nd, 4th and 5th grounds urged by M Ferrers for the prisoner's discharge.

THE CHINA MAIL.

Ferrors submitted that the crime alleged against the prisoner was not a very serious one, and that, taken in conjunction with the fact that a proclamation offering $1500 reward for him, showed that the Chinese Government had an ulterior end in view, and that the alleged robbery was but a pertext for his extradition.

Judgment was reserved.
