COMMERCE.
At the second annual general meeting of the Chamber the Hon. Paul Breitag presided and delivered the following ad- dress:

our
Gentlemen, This is the second annual Chamber, general mesting of and I am glad to be able to report a your of steady work, and I think pro- gross as well, and I hope the work the chamber has done has given you all satis faction. The membership has somewhat fallen off, but I do not think that the members that we have lost left the cham- ber on any other account than the suc cessful reconstruction of the Plantars' Association of the West Coast, hy join- ing which I dare say they thought they could do more good for their companies, bus at the same time I may say that wa have always worked harmoniously toge- ther and that where we could help them, or they w, it has been done. I think that- had we remained one body our voice would have had
weight and strength, but at the same time I am sure that if any very important question ever arom we should work together, and that each would give the other the utmost- help and assistance. The year com- menced with 50 members, and we number now 39. The funds in hand at the hogin- ning of this year were 8737.03, and at present the funds in hand are $828.58, as per the detailed accounts furnished The minutes of the regular committee have been from time to time meetings circulated amongst all the members o you know precisely what we have boon doing, and on this occasion I might again draw your attention to the fact be present at our committee meetings. The most important event of the year was, of course, the visit of Sir West Ridgeway, with whom we had the privi lego of an interview, but, in deference to his wishes, no minutes of the meeting wore printed and circulated, because he, Sir West, rather looked upon the inter view as privata and conversational →→ where we expressed our views and opin I think we may congratu ions freely. late ourselves on seeing the fruition this year of more than one of the seeds that we suggested a year ago to Sir Richard Dane. You will remember that the first and most important point takes up with Sir Richard was the matter of an Elec- tive Council, and I think that through his influence, and that of Sir West Ridgeway, this Council has now been instituted. The second point taken up with Sir Richard Dans was the question of assisted immigration. There is rea- sou to believe that the views we express- ed on that subject to Sir Richard also bore Irult: at any rate the very scheme that your committee suggested is now being tried, not with Southern Chinese, as we thought and meant, but with Northern Chinese, and I hope that this will be more successful than Mr. Young Riddell's attempts to provide labour. We also have reason to believe that a third point introduced by us, viz., the judicature, has also been well borne in mind. Other subjects were brought for ward also but I think I have mentioned enough. Our position here is not only to help and assist our members, but also to help our Government, and I should way that by now they ought to know us well enough to know that we do not hold any antagonistic views, as they wore very much inclined to believe when the Chamber of Commerce was first started, and they ought to know by now that our aims are thoirs also, and these I will name in a few words, the advancement of the planting and industrial intereste, the equity of our laws, and the progres sivo advancement of British North Borneo,

reports, Reuter, that in the Denmark Firth he found two reports from the late Mylius Erichsen. The first, dated September 13h, stated that he was returning along the coast with provisions for sixteen days, while the second report, found in a summer camp, spoke of his discoveries, among which was one that the Peary Channel did not rim through from sea to sea behind Hazon and Heilprin Lands, and that Navy Cliff was connected with Heilprinland.

In fact, when the sailors first saw them some distance away they were going to shoot them. The captain of the ship reports that when he came to the cabin which Captain Mikkelsen and his companion had built he knocked at the door, and thereupon they both ran out, nearly naked, with guns in their hands, as they thought that the knocking had been caused by a beast of prey.
Captain Mikkelsen had been very ill on the journey and Ivorson had dragged him on a sledge for 100 miles.
