PROGRESS IN BRITISH MALAYA.
IMPORTANT DOCK AND RAILWAY IMPROVEMENTS.
Every year brings evidence of the pro- grena that is being made in British Malaya. Recent official reports show that the tip industry is holding its own as the premier source of wealth in the country, butite supremacy in value of output is now challenged by the rubber industry. The administration, is keeping pace with private enterprise by carrying out public works on a large şuide. In this laudable work, lowerer, it is handicapped by the competitions for labour, both in thy Crown Colony of the Straits Settlements and in the Federated Malay States.
The Colonial Engineer, Mr. F. J. Pigott, states in his annunt report that the cost of material and labear is on the increase owing to the demand for rubber and other estates, and good timber is difficult to get in any quantity due to the large demand for hardwood sleepers for the railway estensions now ju pyngress in the Native States. The Tanjong as Dock Board, which came into existence when this Government of the Straits Settlements resumed the deck-
and wharves of the Company controlling them, will be known in future as the Singapors Horbing Board. The body of the large Lagoon Duck at Singapore is thuished and the water has been let in. The new Giraving Dock at Reppel Harbour is to be opened on the 20th inst. It will be known as the King's Dock, and is the largest dock in the Far, East, It is a valuable addition 10 the Imperial. docking establishments east of Shez, as vessels of the super-Dread right class can be decked and repaired there. Its dimensions, com pared with other docks, are as follow:
