Mr. Stringer sald they had all listened with the deepest interest to the address Lord Charles had been, god enough to give them and he wiched formally to move a vote of thanks to him, It way trac that here we are at considerable distance from the possible sphere of action in China, but we were none the less deeply Inter- ested in anything that would promote the trade of China. We might not perhaps derive any direct benefit in the way of concęgilons, but f wis of the utmost importance that every tadiny should be given to trá ́e in those reglönt, whe- 1her to British trade, or that of any other nation- ally. They had had some experience of the evils al "closed doors" in thle part of the world, and there crull be no doubt that to open the entrance exits of China would be of the greatest possible benefit to trade, British or otherwise. It was sild that our free trade was self-b paicy, and when they advo cated that polley they were keeping an cre on their own interests.

CUSTOMS.
The case between Mr. Readers and the Klaoguan Pay and Defores Deparmest at Shanghat was to all appearances Teled when the creditors of Benneriz and Co. agreed to THE KOWLOON EXTENSION and the accept the amount of Tls. 72,000 proffered as compensation. We used not weary our readers with a fresh recliation of facts that are probably well within their knowledge. That the settle ment was a just one in accordance with treaty or any other sighis no one who impartially reviews the facts will he inclined to concur.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE "Howarowa TeLEGRAFI,"
STR.-As regards the continuance of an effice of the Imperial Marine Castoms in this Colony, * Ex-Customs" in your as d sourced hy columns a few days ago, it goes without saying thatthe Chinesa Customs have as tech sight as any one rire sa reat offices to the Celony. They have no right to compel merchants to pay dulles here; but as far as I can gather it be for some time heen arranged that dues and dailes can be paid at the Castoms office in Queen's Road If i
I! salts the merchants' convenience to do so, the Customs officials are not hapted out of the Colony the less may be nigh when they will see their way to clear vessels from Kowloon District for West River ports by giving them papers which will free them from detenilen at way ports. The Cuitems tfficials are not such aressonable and arbitrary. Johnales as mori ex-Customs mea would have the whole world belleve. Customs fficials are the object of houille criticism all the world over. There's nothing new about it, and most of the growls seem to have the same key-note and are there. fára dreadially monotonous. The questions, at Essue will be seitled by the governmeals con- cerred, and all that ex-Customa says on the subject will be as chiff blown by the wind. It is probably too late to "kick" now. The kick- tog should Lave been done years ago. It is

AUDI ALTERAM PARTEM. Hongkong, 4th Clarober, 1898.
Take only one incident. The very Jadgment of the Tactal-isaged secretly, and not la open court, according to the undertaking given which called forth the strong and simost un precedented protest of Sir Nicholas Hannen would be sufficient to create a bias against any side adopilog attch a course. If, however, for a moment we leave the judicial realm and enter that of politice, we see how the case of other naisonals have recently been treated by their representatives, and indemnities paid for cases which involved far smaller Infringements of either rights secured by treaty, or which would be recognisable in any Western court of We have to go back to the old Heng days in "Canton to find way almilar case of the business of a British merchant in China being a catfrely stopped. Bat then justice was foully secured, and it is not too much to hope that justice may yet be done to Mr. Bennerts for the stoppage of his lawful merczalije paisults for nearly two years. Chla differs in most ways from the customs of the West. I would still be possible fur anyone in the West to have a dispute with the Govern-oneless to cry over spili mile, ment and. yet be able to trade. In 4.hion a foreigner can scarcely trade with Chinese if he bave such a dispatej for the authorities have a way of visiting with a heavy hand the principal
r'le family) who would dare trade with the foreigner baving such a dispute, We do not desire to Impute laches on the part of the Consular authority in Shanghai who had charge of the case, still less would it be fair to do so when we know that Mr. George Jamieson was at the time in need of the leave that has since been accorded him. But frem a review of the facts of the cans it is certainly evident that if justice is to be done, Mr. Benneriz'r'case shoold be reopened, with a view to his receiving the compensallon dus to him.
Al present it apparently stands that the Consulate bas" saved Its face, that the Tactal has "saved his face," and Mr. Benbestr now destres la carry out the same Chinese custom on his own behalf. It time to the cause of Bitish interesis, when wo ves other cases promptly settled, that this one, and the old standing claim in connection with the sinking of the Rowthing, should be settled.
