NOTES AND COMMENTS.
RAIN IN INDIA
the authorities show that the total number of cases reported was 90,976, of which 25,394 ended fatally. The subsidy granted by the Ins perial Treasury to the fund for the suppression of the disease amounted to Yrj8,922, and when the amount expended by Fu and Ken, cities, towns and villages and public donations for the snone purpose is added, the total is Y3,113,939. The damage caused to trade in the various prefectures is estimated at Y3,034,969, making a total loss of Y6,168,908, which is equal to about Y6g for each patient.-Kobe Herald,

GURNERAL FUNSTON, INTERVIEWED
Nó piece of news has given us such plea- sure for a considerable time as Reuter's announcement that "rains have removed all fear of famine in Western India." Fantine at the best of times is a most serious business. It means the expenditure of a | vast amount of money, the loss of a great many lives and the retarding of the advance. ment of India in proportion to the extent and duration of the famine. Just at present, when we are liable to be engaged in a war with the Transvaal at any moment, a fantine would be a great misfortune, it would 'mean that our attention would be divided and her. There was a little conversation, and the The General was mightily.indignant at the both the hidians and the Uidlanders in the Queen asked the child what she could do in Transvaal would suffer. Now that all fear the way of needlework. "I can knit stockings, of famine has been removed we can look Signora," replied the girl. "Do you know who upon the present state of affairs with far I am continued the Queen, "Yes, Signora, less apprehension.
you are the Queen." "Well, then, make me a pair of stockings, and send them to the palace." A few days afterwards the stockings arrived, and Queen Margherita in return for the gift sent the child a beautiful pair of rose coloured stockings, the one filled with sweets, the other with money. Next day the Queen received a letter from her little friend couched in the following words:-"Signora: Your gift has caused me no end-of-tears. My father collared the money, my elder brother grabbed the sweets, and as to the stockings, why, mother put them on herself."
THE DREYFUS CASE
A representative of the Hongkong Telegraph went on board the Tarter this morning to look over the vessel. On arriving on board, without stating his business, our man ranged khaki with a silver star on his shoulder straps, himself alongside an individual dressed in. without a sword, but evidently a military officer of the American forces. Permission to inspect the vessel was readily, given and the gente- man willingly offered his services as guide. it was not until after sume balf an hour's ered that the gentleman to whom he was conversation that the newspaper man discove talking was Brigadier General Funston and that he had been fortunate enough to land at the fountain-hend for information.de manner in which the ship's movements had been interfered with and said despatches had been sent to Manila stopping all transports from calling at Hongkong, as it had previously been arranged that they should dry-dock and coal at this port, the outlay for which would have meant something like 20,000 dollars gold. Not a single, volunteer had complained to their own officers, neither to Colonel Metcalfe nor to himself. The men who complained were the regulars who had been discharged at Manila they had not thought fit to come to the officers first, and in fact never had complained to the offiters, but had gone to the U.S. Consul General, Harbour Master's Office and to the newspapers making complaints when they ought to have been the last to do, so as it was. at their own request they were allowed to come on board for the passage.

The closing of the Philippine ports has resulted in the stoppage of the timber trade in those istands; the stoppage of the timber trade has resulted in a rise in the price of timber in the Hong kong market of some lifty per cent. The result is that the Bornean timber trade has received a great lip and is advancing by leaps and bounds, all timber arriving from there having a ready sale and the supply falling short of the demand. One thing, how ever, is certain, and that is that Borneo is equal to supplying all the wants of the Far East in the matter of timber for years to come.
