BIKHOP MOLONET'S TEST.
Moloney, It was suggested by Rt. Rev. Bishop of Ningro, that, to test the seriousness of the want, the scheme tried in India be adopt- od, that is, to offer work at a considerable reduo- tion from the usual day's pay scale. If many apply for employment on these terma it will remove all doubt, he believes, as to the genuine- pess of the suffering. The Committeo desided to start on this basis in the Wahu district, Wealthy gantry from that district who are now in Shanghai have purelinsed 10,000 bige of rice and are sending it up to their home country to be sold at cost price.
Secretary Lobenstine bas just returned from. a trip though the Wahu region and in his re- port to the Committee be raya: "Large tracts at Wu Wei Chow are inundated. It was im- possible to plant any fall crop. There will be no crops until Angast. It is uselare to expect a rica crop unless the dykes are fired Hopsirs necessary along the north bank of the Wa wei- chow will cost $200,000. In the Tangta Ma gieracy on the south side of the river a forty cent. arop has been reaped. Some farmers has crops at all. Some employment

been farmished about Wabu, but not on a large scale. The local committee feels that the wealthy land-owners, who will neft by the work, aliould
pay three-fourths of the expesso of the improve To wents; the government might help them in this, and the Famine Relief Committee bear the other quarter.
"It has been suggested that while waiting for the waters to recede smaller dykes might be built to protest part of Wuhu and Tanghiksien. It is said that the government proposes to levy a tax of 10 candarrens a ma on all land-owners holding more than 20 mu, which would produce

"The Wuhu Committee contamplatos asking
the very wealthy in Anhwei for large contribu tions. Rice is plentiful and cheap in Wahu and the officials forbid its export."
