MR. BRODRICK AND THE VICEROYALTY.
The persistence with which the name of Mr. firudrick is being mentioned as a possible successor to the Viceroyal y, in the event of the retirement of Lord Curzon, makes it necessary to register an emphatic protest against the bare suggestion of such a disastrous possibility, Mr. Brodrick, (says the Times of India), as we have pointed out more than once, would be as inappropriate a selection ns could possibly be made. His personal characteristics, so far as they have been revealed in public life, render him peculiarly unfitted for the grave and delicate responsibilities which devolve upon a Viceroy of India. The attribute which has most impressed itself upon careful ob servers of his demeanour in the House of Commons during the last year or two has been that of stubborn and uncompromising ob stinacy. There is an obstinacy founded in the serene consciousness of deep knowledge and exceptional experience; but such obstinacy is really a splendid and courageous firmness in the face of opposition. There is also the obstinacy which has its roots in a narrow outlook and limited intellectual endowment, the kind of obstinacy which resents all criticism as a personal affront and will never admit that mistakes have been made; and it would appear that Mr. Brodrick's obst inacy must be placed in the latter category. A Viceroy who united within himself unusual tactlessness and imperviousness to argument would have an effect upan India something akin to the advent of a bull in a China shop. We do not lay stress upon his unusual lack of knowledge of Indian affairs though much „might be said upon that point also; but we are entitled to urge that while he was at the For- eign Office, he handled such questions as the Persian Gulf difficulties and the troubles in China with conspicuous ill-success. We say that the British Government have no right to thrust the failures of Parliament into the Su-
preme control of Indian affairs. We know that Mr. Balfour's fine loyalty to a friend has before

THE." LOONGBANG" CASE.

The Manila Timer of the 18th inst. prints the result of the sequel to the Loongtang case, which was fully reported in these columns. The journal states:-

AFFAIRS IN KWANGTUNG.
The Japanese Consul at Hongkong recently telegraphed to the Government, saying that he had paid a visit to Canton and investigated matters concerning the insurrection in Kwang. ung and had found that the insurgents under Gen Tan, who consisted of men and women, aid and young, had long since dispersed, and the local authorities were busy searching for those who took part in the insurrection. The Consul added that he had asked the Viccray to take stringent measures for preventing a recurrence tion to the Japanese, and that he had also con- of the disturbance and give the fullest protec- sulted with the US.

free exportation of ore, is not regarded seriously amongst well. informed American circles, but. it is admitted that the action of Government is a wise one on the principle of self-preservation. The production of tin in America, though given in several works as a nascent industry, is not regarded by Americans as more than in the experimental stage at present, the non-develop ment of stanaiferous grounds being doubtless due to the fact that up to the present it has been cheaper to purchase here, than to pay the high cost of labour for exploitation in the States.It may be pointed out that the Constitution of the United States prevents the imposition of export duties.
A gentleman who is conversant with the course of the tin industry and tin export trade of Malaya has favoured the S. F. Press with these observations on the action of Government prohibiting any attempt on the part of outside schemes to "scoop" our tin trade :-

THE REINA CRISTINA" AND
“VELASCO."
Not the least valuable find on the old Spanish flagship Reina Cristina was 400 tons of coal. When the Reina went into the action in which she was sunk both of her bunkers were filled with coal. This was done not only as a means of protection but to be prepared in case the vessel escaped and might be forced to abandon her base. When the vessel was raised recently it was not known that she had that much coal aboard and the discovery was, not made until her bunkers were reached and oper.ci.
The 'eina Cris'inii and Velasco still lie at Cavite, says the Manila Times, and will not be mo ed until the reunining hulks are either raised or blown ur. The naval authorities
have decided that the entire work must be done before any of the vessels can be moved. The Reisa and Velasco are being cleaned and painted in order to preserve them. The latter is in very good condition and may prove to be the most valuable of the wrecks.
MANILA PREPARING FOR.
TYPHOON SEASON, «
Under the supervision of the harbour master preparations for the typhoon season are being
made at Manila Bay. The area covered by the bay, behind the comparatively safe, anchorage the new breakwater affords is being subdivided. and all the shipping firms are being assigned to spaces where their ships coming will be located while in the harbour. The companies will have to provide their own ground tackle and will bave to mark their buoys with flags during the nights. A large space has been provided for the Army Transport service and the vessels an chored there will all be connected with the main office on shore by telephones. - Precau on ary measures against the stormy season aqin progress in every part of the harbour and lo of- ficial as well as in private circles the fact that severe weather is near, is not being overlooked Wise prophets seem to be of the opinion that the coming season of annual disturbances will be a very severe one, but just what basis there Is for that forecast is hard to tell, observes the Cablinews.
