THE new steamer Hanoi on ber last (and first) Voyage from Hongkong to Haiphong encountered very beaxy weather, in which a number of native craft came to grief off the Hainan coast, She picked up fourteen shipwrecked fishermen and took them into Hoihow. The storm is described as being of typhoon force.. EXPRESSES were circulated to-day notifying that a cheap excursion was being organised for Sunday and that the retum fare from Hongkong to Macao would be one Mexican, only. The steam-launch Taf Lee has been engaged and the promoter anticipates liberal support, which, should the weather be favourable, will doubtless `be accorded him,

This result, although not brilliant, should not be looked upon as dii- appolating.

At the Ma~istracy to-day, before Mr. H, E. Wodehouse, F. A. C. Hahn again appeared on remand to answer to two charges of perjury la connection with his public examination in bark- picy before the Acting Chief Justice in the Supreme Court last month. Mr. E. C. Ellis prosecuted and Mr. H. L. Dannys defended.
Mr. A. G. Wise, Registrar of the Supreme Court, gave evidence as to the #le fo bankruptcy, being his own notes of the debtor's statements while under pubile ex- amination, taken down for use by the Judge in ever that should come up, which in this case had not happened yet. If the bankrupt had disposed of planos held under a bill of sale, and had no authority or permission to do so, It might affect the question of his discharge; 10 that the statements referred to in this charge of perjury were really material. The declaration of the Court that the examination was closed might be construed as an expression of opinion that there was nothing unsatisfactory. There wa sort of oblier dictum which fell from the Judge, to the effect that so far everything was satisfactory,
The evidence being concluded, Mr. Ellie addressed the Court, niging that though the role for perjary cases was that two oaths were neces- sary to disprove one, yet in this case. wherd the contention was negative-that Capt, Weight did not authorise Hahn to sell any of the plano the word of Capt. Wright, supported by the prohibition is the bill of sale, was sufficient evidence. Mr.
ridicaleasty insufficient. The bill of sale Dennys sabmitted that the evidence was stipulated that Habn should not "remove the pianos from the place where they now are, with out written permission from Captain Wright" There was not a word about selling, only remov ing; and there was nothing to show where the planes were, or whether they had been moved. As a matter of fact, the whole shop had been moved ball a dozen times with Capt. Wright's full approval.
His Worship-I am of opinion that there is not sufficient prima faci evidence on which to estabilab a case of perjury. The case is there- fort dismissed, That applies to bath the charges of perjury,
Mr. Hahn therefore stands for trial only on the charge of selling pianos contrary to the stipulations of the bill of sale
