LONDON, July 30th.
In the House of Commons last night a debate took place on Mr. Morley's amendment to the report of the Royal Grants Committee; the House afterwards divided, with the result that the amendment was rejected by a majority of za1 votes, 35 having voted against, whilst only 134 vated in favor of the amendment; Sir William Harcourt and the lenders of the Opposition voted with the minority.

THE ADMINISTRATION OF JELEBU.
MR, W, DUNMAN ON THE WAR. PATH. Mr. W. Dunman, the manager of the Jelebu Mining and Trading Co., Ld., sends the follow- ing indictment of the Goverment officials of Sungei Ujong to the Straits Timer, which we print without comment:-
That onlookers see most of the game is generally acknowledged to be a wise saw, and here is n case in point.
Some time ago your leader gave a resumé of the report on the State of Sungei Ujong, which we are now told includes Jelebu. Of course the report, viewed by a casual observer, looks well enough, so it may be as well to point out the following facts :
The Jelebu report was omitted altogether. It is public property, and should have appeared with the rest. It touches on matters r the, annexation, which might as well be left out, so evidently thinks the Rezident of Sungei Ujong. It is beyond question that the Datus of Jelebu were coerced into an unwilling consent to be annexed on the understanding that the Datu Penghulu, Collector, and another were to have seats in the Sungei Ujong Council Is it likely that they would otherwise have consented ? Anyhow the Resident has gone back on his word.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, FRIDAY, AUGUST
"carcely be termed justice, neither is it impartial. Since this, Mr. Paul, I am told, has actually granted a concession of 2000 acres to a person in Sungei Ujong.
It is not advisable, as a rule, to rush into print, but when Government officials view such serious matters with such atter callousness and indil ference, one must find other means to overcome the difficulty. So we must be thankful that there is a public press.
I imagine the Government will not be satisfied to allow such statements to be made public without causing an investigation. It is what we' want, and I think it will, on examination, be scarcely found to be "idle gossip."
FRANCE AND EGYPT.
The Paris Herald publishes a very caustic article on the relations of Great Britain to Egypt as seen from the French point of view. After saying that Khartoum is the key to Egypt, and that no British military man of any standing will admit that England cannot
capture and hold Khartoum, the article goes on to say "Diplomacy says if England wishes to remain in Egypt she must always be ready to take a fiule war out of her waistcoat pocket and show the world at large and France in particular that her presence in Egypt is necessary to protect the European community there, and as a safeguard of humanity and civilization. Humanity and clvi'jzation'nie words that have been pretty well exploited: 1! England has the courage of her spinions, then let her capture Khartoum and rule Fgypt and North Africa as she does India, or else let her get out of it altogether. Let the Egyptians stew in their own juice, let France, Russia or Italy have their little game in Egypt, but at least do not let England do the dog in the manger."
Although coarsely stated, this probably fairly represents French public opinion regarding the occupation of Egypt by Great Brita. That country keeps too few soldiers in Eupt for an army, but too many to do only po'ice duty. Her troops are not strong enough to conquer the rebels, and yet are in sufficient, force to main. tain British supremacy in that part of the country which is at peace and to keep other The Jelebu accounts however are printed,nations from dealing with Egypt on equal terms. but, unfortunately, do not balance, a pretty state- of things for a Government office.
At the Jelebu Road constructed by Hill and are told that the "fine for non- Rathborne, completion of contract, $100 per week, was accumulating, and nothing was being done. It appeared to me (Mr. Paul)........better to take over the road at once than to allow matters to get worse and worse and risk a greater loss, etc." Any man of business would have written to the contractors holding them responsible; instead of which they are actually given a handsome contract for a railway.
So much for the report. Now let us see how excellently Jelebu is being governed by the Resident in Sungei Ujong. We have no road whatever to the mines-a mere bridle path along which the provisons and necessaries, tin and ore, have to be carried by hand. The expense of such carriage would in six months cover the total cost of the seven miles of road so urgently required. The matter bas been duly placed in Mr. Paul's hands by the Collector here, only to be shelved with the usual answer that it will be done by and bye.
France especially has a right to complain, for the relations between' Egypt and France were intimately and extremely amicable until England interfered on behalf of her bondholders, and sent troops there ositusibly to act against the rebels, but really to enhance the value of the bondholders' security,
But however much France may objret to England's dog-in-the-manger policy in Egypt, she will do nothing but protest. Egypt is cer tainly not worth
war with Great Britain, especially at this time when the clouds lie dark and heavy along the horizon of continental Europe, and the storm of war may burst at any moment. It would be suicidal for France to become involved in war with England, not be cause she could not hold her own with England, but because it would be the signal for an attack by other foes whom she could less easily resist..
Nor is there any danger of England taking the
·She is not first step toward war with France, prepared for war and is vulnerable at too many points. She will take her scolding from France with as good-n grace as possible and will per- haps make some change in her Egyptian policy, but only under the greatest provocation will she be tempted into war.-S. P. Chronicle.

opening a new country where much clearing is done, there must of necessity be much sickness, which here takes the form of, principally, dysen tery, fever and beri-beri; so, of course, such an institution is not only a hoon but an absolute necessity. Some days back I sent in three of the Company's sinkits for treatment. I found that both the hospital attendants were absent on leave, one to fetch bis family, the other giving Watrostock
Ta as an excuse that he had to bury a relative Selangor, (I have heard this before in connec tin with Celestials). However, the hospital," with half a score of patients, was left to the tender mercies of a coolie, whoabiolutely knew nothing beyond that he had to give medicine out of a number of botiles, and so every facility was offered for the dysentery patient being dored with Epsom salts, etc. Being an interested party, I had occasion to visit the hospital frequently, and lant the authorities quinine and chlorodyne, the Government physic having been safely locked up. After 24 hours, the bottles of medicine were finished, and for a week the patients were left there to die or hold on as luck might have it. I a saw some lying on the ground, and some were without blankets. I had two other coolles illn with dysentery, but with no one to attend Bolato. them. I did not send them in, and one of these died the following morning. I wrote down through the Collector to Mr. Paul, demanding, in

something should be done, and received an answer that he did not consider the case required any extraordinary mea sures! Since then there have been two deaths to my knowledge; one body was left lying alongside of the other patients until decomposition had set in; and this fact was
