RINDERPEST.
The following report from Mr. A. Watson, Acting Inspector of Livestock, has been cir culated to members of the Sanitary Board -
Sir, have the honour to report that on the 5th inst, two animals were admitted into the cattle depot from Kowloon ; as they appeared to be sick, I had them placed under observation in the Segregation Shed. Their temperature the was No. 1048', No, 2 103-4" in the 6th inst their temperature was No. 1 105.2", symptoms hard breathing and diarrhoea No. 2 temp. 1044 no other symptoms of sickness apparent. At 6 a.m. 7th inst, one'animal (No. 1) was found dead and from examination of the carcase and considering the former symptoms I am of opinion that the animal died of rinderpest. The other animal is still under observation. Temp. 1034 (refuses food, bui ao vther symptes of sickness apparent as yet.) The cattle broker who adinitted the animafs into depót, refused to
himself or pay the Government coolies for doing so, stating that he had no nude there the expenses and that the carcase could lie and stink. I had the carcase buried by the coolies employed at the cattle depot; who thoroughly disinfected their bodies and clothing when finished.
MORGAN OFTY” WRECK.
** FURTHER DETAILS OF THE DISASTER.
KOBE, September 6th. Onemichi, Tuesday night, I have to-day visited the wreck of the Morgan Cily and walked through and about the beach encamp ment of the troops she carried. 1 send first a few supplementary details of the manner of the wreck of the vessel, the subsequent landing ni the men and facts bearing on other points passed over in the hastily written account sent
yesterday.
All agree in saying that the night of the wreck was a bad one for navigation and the manifold perils of the run through the Inland Sea made the risk all the greater. As men“ tioned in yesterday's account, the tremps were of Saturday morning their ship struck. Several all below when, hetween three and four o'clock of them I have spoken to declare however, that

Dorris had brought the ship to beach, remarking that in less able hands the ship might have got down in deep water. It is unfortunate that the captain and the chief officer should have been almost the only individuals to lose all their per sonal belongings. This arose through the sud- den and unexpected collapse of the ship.

JAPANESE YARN,
The Osaka Mainichi states that the demand for Japanese yarn continues to increase year after year. The increase in the demand it con. siders partly due to the increase in the facility of communications, the opening of various ports largely extending the field of sales of the yam, but chiefly to the remarkable in- crease in the number of weaving looms in the interior.

Mr. Wilhelm Engelbert, a representative in Hongkong of Holz Jacob & Co, whose head office is at Rotterdam, said they had been for the last two years importing the snake brand into the market. It is prepared in Holland, The labels also come from Holland. The baxes are also supplied and have snake brand on the outside. Large quantities have been sold in the Colony. Ite thought he had sold to the Sui Yik shop: The contact produced of 19th December 1898 showed that 50 cases had been sold had ever been made by the New York Co of their infringing their ad sack, Their milk went among the Chinese as the Snake Brand He only knew the pice of the Milkmaid" and not the price of the Eagle.". The price of the Snake Brand was $1.65 per dozen. There was a great differ- ence between the two labels, the first that on the top side we put "Snake Brana Secondly there is an eagle, fighting a snake, Further on this one there is imprinted "made in Holland.""" On the wrapper of the Sunke Brand the directions for use are in Chinese characters, on the Eagle Brand there are no Chinese characters. The words impressed on the top of the tin are entirely different and also a slight difference in the size of the tin. Anyway there, in a great difference. The Chinese cannot read so they must know very well that one is the "Eagle Brand" and the other the Engle and the Snake."
By Mr. Gedge.All the differences given are in English. The Milk is imported principally for the Chinese. He did did not knop where his cargoes go: probably into the interior of China. Suppose he were an ignorant Chinaman he would notice the Eagle first as that was the principle factor. The last import was different from the Snake brand, in which the snake looks more like a scroll. The Eagles on the Snake brand are not identical with those on the Eagle Brand. The wings are stretched in both cases. This is the first time he had heard of the Hing mark.
He did not know if they could take most other mark than the Eagle as it was taken before his engagement. It is not his intention to deceive and he did not know that he did so.
Mr. Hastings said he had one me witness to call and would probably take about an hours he suggested the further hearing be adjourned His Worship concluded, with this suggestion and adjourned the hearing until 215 p.m. next Tuesday, defendant being released without bail.
CORRESPONDENCE.
We do not necessarily endome the opinions expressed by Currespondents in this column.)
THE TRANSPORT "TARTAR.” TO THE EDITOR or rus-Hongkong. Telegram”
SIR-With your kind permission I should like to raise my voice against this mischievous meddling by Government officials with British shipping Nearly every report that is now issued on shipping matters shows that although the number of vessels flying the British flag is. on the increase, this increase is in no way in proportion to the advance made by other nations and I believe most shipping firms will agree with ne. when I say that_this_stale.of things is mainly due to the vexatious rules enforced by the Board of Trade, which in many instances have forced British owners to fly a foreign lag.
It certainly is not my intention to oppose a proper regard to the safety of British subjects but I do not believe it is the duty of our authorities to interfere in the arrangements male by a friendly Power when, in their estimation, due precautions have been taken to ensure the safety of their subjects on board a British; vessel, as in now being done on beard the chattered transport Tartar. In the whole of this quarrel our officials have seemed to have acted in a most arbitrary manner and have quite lost all ideas of common sense and the fondamental principle of the greatest good for the greatest number. The military officers have not, so I am led to believe, been approached to see if an amitable arrangement could not be arrived at. The refusal of the ship's clearance papers was only grounded on the complaints made by the disatisfied discharged regulars who were disappointed in not obtaining a first class passage to America without extra payment, the fact being that the British Government has been made to pander for the benefit of a few to the detriment of the many. All on board the Tartar are eager to get home and the mer chants of llongkong are eager for the Ameri can transports to come to this port, bringing as they must do a great deal of ready money here, and still these advantages have to be gainsaid to suit a few insubordinate discharged soldiers wliose chief aim appears to be that they may have a good time and do not mind how much harm they may do others.
Thanking you, Sir, for the insertion of this letter, which 1 hope may call forth the opinion of other commercial inen on the disadvan- tages accruing from flying the British flag.

DEATH OF GENERAL LE GENDRE.
Arrangements were concluded today, at Nagasaki for the despatch from that port of a vessel to take off the men on Thursday. The crew of the Alorgan City will go either io Kobe or Nagasaki for shipment back to the States. Which of the ports they go to has not been de- cided, but Capt. Dorris is in communication with the American Consul at Kobe on the
matter.

A telegram from Soul announces the death on the 2nd instant of General Le Gendre, adviser to the Korean Government. General Le Gendre has for many years been a con. spicuous figure in the Far East. In the early serenties he served as United States Consul in Amoy and there acquired a considerable know. ledge of Formosan affairs. Coming to Japan just when this country was involved in a dispute with China about the latter's responsibility for an outrage perpetrated by the Formosan aborigines against some shipwrecked natives of the Kiukin Islands, he placed his services at the disposal of the Japanese Government, and was appointed adviser to Mr. Okubo, who had chief direction of the expedition sent by Japan to inflict punishment on, and seek redress from, the Formosans, General Le Cendre resided in Tokyo for many years after that event.
