THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8гx, 1905.
The Hon. Mr. SHEWAN-T would ask that! this Council be adjourned to consider this on another occasior.
The ATTORNEY:&¢NERAL-Why P The Hon. Mr. SHEWAN-To give us time consider our position in the matter. We ought to bave an opportunity of dischasing the loan.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL-The Bill only allows the loan to be raised by debentures as well as inscribed stock.
Then I did not anticipate we should spend the whole umount of the vote for public works extraordinary. From the point of view of work done, it is on the other hand more satis- factory us we have made more progress than anticipated on the water supply works and the preliminary arrangements for the railway.'. The inancial aspect has also its brighter side because we are now in kopce of obtaining from laud sales during the year a sure more nourly approximating the original j estimate of $500,000 than the revivil estimate I | put before you on September 7th of $400,000, The other rose requiring explanation is No. 61. $13,891 in aid of the expanses of the Military.

The COLONIAL SECRETARY mezonded. HIS EXCELLENCY-The explanation of the Bill which has been put before you is shown in the following despatch from the Secretary of State for the Colonies which I esived by last mail. It is dated 3rd November, 1905:
FIR-I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your telegram of the 13th October reporting that an Ordinane had been passed by the Legislative Council for raising asunnot exceeding £2,000,000, under the provisions of the Lean Ordinance of 1893, to defray the gat of the railway from Kowloon to Canton and for other railway purposes. --

The CoLONIAL TREASURER-Of course they wilt. They always are.

it has been painted out to me that the circum- stances of the present fouu, so far as they relato to the advance made to the Viceroy at Wüchang, aro altogether exceptional. The lean is to be repaid in ten years at the outside, and possibly after five; and it may prove advantageons to iss this lean in the form of debentures repayable by ten annual drawings proportionate to the custaiments due from the Viceroy.
