The Emperor tiled to appear stoical in the face of these evidences of his unpopularity, but his pale face showed that the

In spite of the police a young man broke through the crowd, escaped the clutches of several policemen who made graba for him, and ran up to the Emperor, whos horse was going at a fast trot. Many people in the crowd raised a shout, as they expected he was going to try and carry out the suggestion frequently heard of dragging the Emperor from his horse."

I think it would be a great pity to let the master drop now, and some good may perhaps be expected from the great teaman's co-operation. The statistics in your corres- pondent's article were only too correct, and it is as indisputable fact that, if the China export all off this season, China as a tea producing country is irrevocably doomed, I notice that your correspondent estimates the Ceylon export next year, at 80,000,000 lbs. Ibelleve it will be nearer 100,000,000 lbs, and If so, it makes the position so much the worse: The China tem trade has now conic to a critical period and corapetition, it has now to contend against Instead of as in former years meeting with no British colonics with no taxation, and is therefore handicapped.

It is difficult to say how many people have been wrested for taking part in the rioting. The semi-official statement is that about 300 men and women are in custody, and that the number Injured docs not amount to more than seventy. These figures, however, are delusive, for in the wounded are only counted the people who were picked up bleeding by the police and taken to
the hospitals.
It is evident from the number of heads and limbs bandaged up which are to be seen in certain quarters of the city that two or three hundred people at least have suffered at the bands of the police.
