The London and China Express in summing up the progress of the Far East during the past year says
HONGKONG
This Eastern embodiment of the Imperial iden has again suffered much during the past year from the plague, and its constant presence has proved that the sanitary arrangements of the colony still leave much to be desired. That this criticism is justified may he judged from the fact that there have been over 9.000 cases of the epidemic in the enlony since 1854- a fact that only eniphaticss the wretchedness of the local conditions,, By the latest advices the i colony had been declared free of the epidemic fen state of matters, that we may hape, hat ein scarcely feel aanmed, will be permanent. The Government of the colony is said to have been largely conspicuous bits absence-ta much so that the local newspués se renörted to have run short of the tree necessary to set up the word A-C-T-1-N.G. Trade has, of courer, suffered by the presence of the plague, but the fact that the tonenge using the port agregated 18,503,000 tons for 19a shows that its impor. tance as a shipping depot is not on the wane, while the Post Office; receipts are such as to indicate great commercial activity. The local companies, as a rule, are sufft iently prosperous to point to the advantage of local knowledge, as well as in the benefits arising from adven-
ennial Mr. F. Henderson maintains his post tion as Auditor-General to numerous com- panies that must have grown up under his watchful eye. A, rise, in wages has been general throughout the colony, the cost to the Hongkong and Whampoa dock being something like $tan,000 per month, amount we should think unexampled in the colony's history. There appears to be in creasing desire among the Chinese to settle in the colony, richer Chinamen buying houses. Ac, formerly occupied by foreigners, and rents are still on the rise in conséquence. A fair amount of progress has been made in the new territory, but the financial position cap only be accepted as a temporary one, with the know ledge that matters will right themselves as new
tures undertaken on a silver basis: The per.

industries develop and as the road to Taipo
-progresses. The Chinese have always been
quick to recognise the value of the British flag- as a shield from oppression. The further Praya reclamation scheme has met with the full approval of the hi-holders, and will! doubless prove of great advantage to the colony, while the Waneliai reclamation project should increase the available arra, within the husiness centre of the town.
Amongst enterprises that must redound to the welfare of the colony is the great work being undertaken by Messrs. Butterfield and Swire at Qua ry Bay, though the terms accord ed by the Government are scarcely of that liberal order that would induce great outlays of capital that must assuredly bring large indirect benefits. The construction of docks and work. shops and the reclamation of land, even if you expect to make profits, are works that should not be hampered by a biggardly hankering after all the dollars and couts that can be extracted from the enterprise. A new feature in the colony is a request for a concession over certain parts of Lantee Island for silver mining. The assassination of one of the Chinese reformers is said to have been instigated by the Chinese Government, and is a proof that in secret matters of this kind the Chinese authorities have always at their back means of attaining the ends The social progress of Hongkong is always interesting, and, in con- trast to the conditions `obtaining in the old days, is very noteworthy. The record of 1,200 students in daily attendance at Queen's College is astonishing, and the sub- scription of $6sjon for the endowment of schnals for the education of the Chinese masses is an event that must commend itself to all lovers of progress: To "call the living to school" is a Btting sequel to all that has gone
before on the plains of the N th
The Fond Supply Commission has been able. to make suggestiong as to chenpening fprices, and much may, no doubt, he done by encourage ment of gardens and of livestock raising. The increase in linrickshas marks the progrese in this mode of locomotion, while we sigh la vain in England for such an average of success (93 per cent.) as results from the forecasts of the Hongkong Observatory. Finally, we may note as a gratifying proof of how the Empire is knit together that large shipments of New Zealand coal have been made for use at Hongkong and Wei-hai-Wei.

President Roosevelts order, reported in to-day's despatches, that $176,000 in silver, lanted by American troops at Tientsin, be turned back to China, is poor requital for the banty which Americans lugged away' from China, and probably no one knows it better than the Presi dent.

TOTICE is hereby given that the REGIS- ships building in the United States will be about £380,000 each. Why should there be a difference so great in the cost? Belfast is not so well situtated as New York with regard to obtainine supplies of coal and iron. It is probable, therefore, that the difference in price is largely due to the fact that on the one hand the Irish shipbuilders have the advantage of having their materials in free markets-in the markets that are open to all the world; but the American builders have to buy in the markets that are"" protected" by duties impas- so that the price is ed on imported goods, artificially kept up.
