Ip Cheung, a detective, deposed to the arrest of the prisoner in Fraya West on the 27th ultimo.
Alexander Jones, third engineer of the Namen, said he was on duty in the "engine room on the rath of December, and when the vessel was near Mendoza island be, heard 'shots Gred on the upper deck. He remained In the engine room where the third officer sann came and said he was shot at while on the bridge, adding that the whole ship was lathe hands of a gang of pirates, The said officer asked him, to connect the steam hose so as to turn it on to the desperadoes, but it being too short they could make no use of I Later on the second engineer (Ramway) 'arrived, and said he had been shot by the pirates. Ramsay had a revolver in his hand and said he hadshot at and wounded one or two of the pirates. The pirates then commenced to fire down in the engine room so they "planted" behind the boilers for unfety. The third mate stepped out from the place of safety and whilst pelting coal at their antagonists was shot in the right arm. After 's "while they all went on deck, were searcherl and shut up in the captain's 'cabin together with the foreign passengers and other officers of the ship. He stopped in the captain's cabin until 9 p.m. when a quartermaster told him, that the pirates had gone. He went down into the engine room, on duty, and at 9.70 p.m. the ship was underweigh again. He could swear positively to the prisoner. It was be who came to, and kent guard over, the captain's' cabin after the pliate chief left it. The prisoner came on guard at 2.30 p.m, and remained there until 4 p.m
He was armed with a revolver and sword. Witness watched him through a small hole, and saw him "cuff" and maltreat many of the Chinese passengers as they were being driven down into the saloon. On the 27th ultimo he saw the prisoner in gaol and picked him out from a drzen men, with promptitude. He recognised him by his height, general ap pearance, deep-set eyes and a tooth out on the left side of the row of front teeth. The arizoner wore neither shoes nor cip. He looked like a diny,coolie, and had a red blanket wound around his waist.
Mr. W. F. Mackintosh, chief engineer of the Namas, repeated the evidence he had given at the foquity and added that he believed the prisoner was the man on guard outside the captain's cabin. He would not, however, swear positively to him. He picked the man out from a number of men in the gani, on the 27th ultimo, Mr. Eldridge, chief officer, was also examined and said, inter alia, that he could not recognise the prisonst.
The car was then adjourned.

Barff played a hall from Christoffelis to forward short leg, which Vanderspar just secured, falling in the attempt but sticking to the leather. 33.62 Five overs were sent down to Campbell and Darby, three being maidens, but two singles being made, Then Darby gave a very similar chance to Vanderspar, which was equally promptly accepted. 35.7.1.

Christoffels deprived the team of the chance of a half century clean bowling Lammert, when one short of that number. The chief credit of getting out the formidable Northern team for 49 in doe of course to Christoffelsz whose analysis is a splendid one. The whole team was very keen on the ball, however, and everything was snap ped up in double quick time. « Alston's wicket keeping was a feature of the game, not a single bye being given.

Two other maidens followed, the fielding being very On Stephens facing Lawson, à rapid change occured,, the doctor getting that balsman well Caught off a bumping ball by Lammert at leg, close in. Three for 4. Marks followed. Off the. very next ball Moorhouse was caught and blowled from a lofty skier. Four for 4. At this crisis things were looking distinctly serious for the Cinnamon islanders, and Vanderspar, the Ceylon skipper, appeared on the score. Marks welcomed his friend by scoring a brace to the on, Vanderpar responding with a single to short leg, and lifting a lofty one to the on for the same amount, too near in for long on to get at. Marks now got Lowson grandly away to leg for 4, and a mistake of Smith at the wicket added 3 more to the score, and when the call to tiffin was sounded the score stood at four for 14.
Play was resumed at 2.30 p.m., Vanderspir defending Barf's attack. A very pretty hit for 4 through the chains near the Hotel was the outcome of the first over and Marks and the Ceylon Captain added each a single-off the doctor's first bowling venture. À maiden from Barff followed, and in Lawson's next effort, after he attempted to throw Marks out for leaving his ground, he was finely cut by that batsman, Marks however leaving immediately after, being clean bowled with last ball by a full pitch.

Commenting on the above in a leadereite the A Straits Timer says:-A little "paragraph" in which we relate how threa soldiers Jumped ashore from a French transport, as it came slongside the Singapore wharf to coal is of greater importance than at first sight would ap-` pear. The trouble is that by our laws we have others to do so. Nay, if in place of three mea no power to capture these desertern nor to permit leaping ashor a couple of hundred had done so, we would still find ourselves in the awkward position of having no right to interfere with these men until they had robbed, or plundered, nr in some other way had broken our laws. Up till recently the situation has been amelio- rated by the fact that without having any legal right to do so our police have captured or made forts to capire desenlers, and although the dificulty, fit in many of the Netherlands men are still the knowledge that deserters were caught by the Straits police had a wholesome effect in preventing men running away from their ships. Very recently, however, the Straits Government (presumably instructed from home) gave strict o ders that the letter of the law was to be kept; and as a consequence the police are now forbidden to Interfere in any way. The 'reilt may be awkward. For instance, we have it that these three deserters rus-ed from the wharf into the town in fear and haste. That was unnecessary. Had they chosen they might have sat down on the wharf and made 'much gestures of contempt as seemed fit to them. For, if they had been arrested on our soil we would have had. to reclaim them.
