Witness then denied other charges of having received sums of money from Wong Hni Tang With regard to the $500 alleged to have been paid by Wong for costs on the 23rd July, there was no necessity for each at that time, as judgment had been given for them and they expected costs. Witness was then questioned on the account for costs amonating to 311,575 and gave reasons for the various nuns set down. With to
regard the £4,500 costs in connection with the Renter, Brookelnum case he had drawn that amount which was lodged in court as security for costs because he was as cortain a solicitor could he that they would be awarded costs, Ho remembered when Wong Hai Tang came for his first account.

Witness remenihered Wong saying that the account showed he was 32,000 short, and on looking at the account he saw how that was. He did not admit blame for that misleading It was not account being given to Wang given so that Wong would not be able to see that he had not been credited with the 8500 paid for costs on 23rd July; there was a lot of items which did not appear in that account.
it Witness did not think necessary to give another account, because Wong was satisfied with the explanation given. Witness agreed that there show was no account given to him until April to
that he had not been credited with the $500. Witness remembered Wong coming to the office in the middle of April. He was supplied with an account. It was not trus that he offered $10,800 to close the whole affair. If witness had done so Wong would probably have jumped at the offer. He remembered when Wan ill came to see him in January. He was brought into his room by Tam. It was possible Wan asked him to quote a lump sum fer costs. He took $30 from Won on account of costs. That meant there might possibly be more to come. Witness

SHAREBROKER OR JOBBER?
In course
of the hearing of the action by Mr. F. L. Marshall, zburebroker of Shanghai, against Mrs. Nazer claiming for the specific performance of a contract to deliver 50 Langkat shares on the 28th June, Mr.C. W. Ure, of Most. J. P. Bisset and Co., was examined and we make the following excerpt from the report of his evidence
Mr. Wilkinson-From the ovidence of Mr. Anderson I gathered he considered it impossible to conduct share business, here without the share-broker being a jobber and occasionally having to hold shares for himself and on his own responsibility. That is in a very great measure true. A prinsipel comes to me and asks me to bay 50 Docks for delivery in September. He gives me a limit of The. 85, and I go into the market and find it very strong indeed. Tls. Tls. 84 perhaps. Withont first getting his permission to exceed his limit, but on my own responsibility I take 100 sliron at Tle. 86. Feasibly I tell him that I have not been able to buy at Tis. 83, but have bought them on my own. He says he will hot bay at more than T. 85 and then I hurry round to the Stock Exchange and sell them. That is not what I call jobbing strictly.
You can
His Lordship-No, certainly not soil to a broker when at arm length, and you can tell a manibor of the public that they are your shares
Mr. Wilkinson-Do you yourself in com ducting business find it necessary to buy and sell shares on your own account as disclosed in the books of ar. Marshall →→I do not quite follow that.
Mr. Wilkinson-Do you job shares yourself? -Absolutely not.
Mr. Wilkinson-And you find it possible to make a living here without doing so?--Yes,
But that is just the great point as to what job. bing mass.
