Mr. Lovering, an American lauger, who there upon wrote stating that he was instructed to fommence legal proceedings, but that his client hoped it would be possible to come to an saicable settlement. Riley Hargreaves replied that they thought they were justified in selling The engines to avoid having them thrown on their hands; and it seemed that Riley Har greaves & Co. were of opinion that they were able to repudiate their contract at any time. But thoy added that they were still pushing ou with the other engines. In August of the same year, Mr. Lichuuco was suspected of laving leanings towards the insurreêfianiata and was arrested by General Otis and thrown into prison. He was in Marila gaol from Augnat 12th to Dec. 8th, 1999, as a political prisoner. Prisoner wrote auother letter to Riley, Har- grooves & Co., and afterwards had an interview in the prissa will Mr. W. M.

Mr. Liebanco was released is Decembór, and still the engines did not arrive. In 1900 the plaintiff came to Singapore and instituted legal proceedings.
