It is a matter of gossip in high social circles that a conflict of opinion between H. M. King Edward and the late Premier hastened the latter's resignation. The King, it appears, was desirous of raising Sir Emest Cassel to the peerage on the ground of his munificent gift of

Sir-Since the unfortunate circumstances have taken place, which necessitated the temporary postponement of the celebration -which the residents in this Colony had intended | ERSIAN- Best quality. holding in honour of the Coronations of "f", M. The King and Queen, news has been received of the great improvement in His Majesty's health.
We understand that by the direct wish rg His Majesty certain of the proposed celebrations in honour of the Coronation have been held in Great Britain and elsewhere in spite of the fact that the Coronation has not yet taken place.
We would beg to respectfully remind Your Excellency that one of the most important, if not the most important, item of our proposed programme was the turning of the first sad of the "King's Park," a work which when com pleted would prove of great and lasting benefit to the Colony at large.
Knowing as we do that Your Excellency has been directly instrumental in securing fo, longkong this valuable concession we are also aware that the wish has been very generally expressed that Your Excellency should carry to a conclusion the good work with which you have been so closely identified.
We therefore venture to express the hope, that Your Excellency may be willing to arrange at an early date for the turning of the first sod of the Perk, thus setting your seal upon a public work, which while cot only bene fitting the residents of Hongkong, will also be a standin; monument to the kindly interests which Your Excellency has always displayed in promoting the welfare of the Colony.
We would beg to point out that in making this request we are not asking Your Excellency to go beyond what had already been decided upon before the sad news of His Majesty's sickness reached us.
We are aware that a good many details will remain to be settled and other arrangements made before any progress can be made with the laying out of the Park.
Trusting that Your Excellency may be good enough to give a favourable consideration to our request,
