THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, FRIDAY, JUNE 19 1903.
Bushat e provisions of Ordinance 1 of 1903 have been enforced in Health District No. 5.
.
Mr. Pollock-I think, sir, if you recollect that at the meeting of property owners there was a general desire expressed by the members pre- sent that the memorandum of the Acting Medical Ufficer of Health, which was a very valuable document as showing the construction he purupos certain, rovisions of thisOrdinance, should be pointed. That was the sense of the meeting, and I should like to know, sir, whether the sense of the meeting was conveyed by you, as Chairman, to the Government. There is no
doubt that that wish was strongly expressed at the meeting, and I should like to know whether that wish was conveyed to the Government by
yourself as Chairman.

THE NANITARY BOAKD MEETING.
In continuation of our report of yesterday's meeting of the Sani ary Hourd the following
business was transacted :-
PLAGUE IN FORMOSA.
The President said it appeared from the report that the cases were chiefly in one district some 50 unles to the north of Tainan City and he did not think it incumbent upon the
Bond to take any ineasure to recommend any inspection with reference to plague in Formosa, CATTLE DISEASE.
A minute was read at the previous meeting from Mr. A. Gibson, Colonial Veterinary Sur geon, reporting an outbreak of disease in the Kennedytown calife depôts.
The Vice-President minuted :-* Can no in- formation be ascertained as to the nature of the disease?"
The President said the Government had authorised investigation into thijs disease, and that $1,500 had been voted to begin wah. The actual ciuse of the disease was not known, and to ascertain this the Government Bacteriologist and the Colonial Veterinary unge.n were making investigation.
LIMEWASU.
In moving his resolution the President said: -The reason for my making this motion is that it has come to my knowledge that in certain cases chalk and water have been used as limewash. It is most important that lime- wash should be used.
Mr. Pollock seconded, and the viction was agreed to.
|
Mr. Fung Wa Chun-May I ask, sir, whether it is intended to proceed against the owners the contractors for using chalk instead of lime? The President-The contractor if the con- tractor uses chalk, and the owner the owner uses it.
THE RECENT MEETING OF PROPERTY
OWNERS,
In pursuance of notice Mr. Pollock asked when would the memorandum of the Acting Medical Officer of Health on the construction of certain provisions of Ordinance of 1903 which was read at the recent meeting of property owners, be printed.
The President-At the meeting of the Board held on he 1st May last the report of the Acting Medical Officer of Health referred to was laid on the table. If any member wishes to refer to it again he can do so, but it is not the intention of the Government to have it printed and circalated as suggested. In the meantime may inform the members of the

owners
Mr. Hewett seconded.
The President-Before that is put, i would like to draw attention to the fact that this report was laid before the meeting of the Finard sub- sequent to that meeting of the property-owners, andw s discussed by the members of the Board. The report was laid on the table, which means it was public property, and the Press could have had it if they wished to print it.
Mr. Pollock think the Press could bardly have been aware of that, otherwise 1 immagine such a vahtable document as that would have buen printed. I think there has been a general impression that the document would be printed, in accordance with the wish expressed by the European property owners p exeal at the meet. ing. I think it is very desirable it should be punted.

doubt that the Straits Settlements has prosper. ed under a silver standard; but it is contended that trade would have equally expanded under a gold standard, The committee are of opinion that there must be a point at which the advantages said to be derived from a low, or falling, exchange cease, and distinct disadvantages are experienced. The dollar has fallen in value from 45. 2d. to ts. 7d., and the interests which have suffered from the fall may fairly claim protection from further agree-foss. Fluctuation in exchange is a grave dis. advantage to the community generally, and interferes with business. would not do away with the evil, but would A gold standard transfer it from the trade with gold countries to the trade with silver. countries. The trade with gold countries, however, is much larger than with silver countries.
The President:-lamesferring to the Western
Market but the same course would be carried out in regard to the Central Market.
The Vice-President - am quite in ment with what Mr. Hewett has said, assuming these poultry crates are good and clean, but where they are so sodden with use and neglect and really in an unft state for the accommoda- tion of poultry I do not see why the Colony should be saddled with any compensation being paid.
The President-What stalf-holders were informed WAS that they must submit a claim for compensation, and any damage that was suffered in cleansing or destroying crates would be considered by a sub-committee appointed for that purpose.
Mr. Pollock-It is quite obvious, whoever pays for it, that dirty crates ought to be destroyed.
An important consideration is the difficulty, under present conditions, of obtaining capital from gold countries. The absence of fixity of exchange with Westem countries discourages the investment of British capital required for the development of the Straits. The committee admit there is some force in the argument that, as the Straits is a collecting and distributing centre for countries having a silver standard, the adoption of a gold basis might affect its prosperity; but they point out that Singapore is a great trade centre, largely by reason of its natural advantages and its freedom from Cus- toms duties. Moreover, the silver-using coun. tries may hereafter adopt a gold standard. Finally, while the committee do think a gold standard should be pressed on the Straits Settlements against the wishes of the Gavern- Mr. Pellock:That also applies to other ment and the people, they are equally of dirty crates coming into the market ?
The President-They are destroyed, Mr. Pollack hope that course will do away with filth.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND BUILDINGS HILL
The Vice-President÷-1
would ask per mission, sir, before we proceed further to dis. pense with the usual notice for the purpose of the provisions of the new Public Health and inquiring what is being done towards enforcing
Buildings Ordinance in No. 3 Health District, The President: In reply to that question I would state that since the commencement of the surveying of No. ; Health District, 167 houses have been measured by the sappers employed for the survey work. Overcrowding monices have been server on the tenants of 132 Hoors stating the legal number that can occupy each of these flours under the new Urdinance. These notices were served by the prosecuting inspector somie six days ago, and a second batch will shortly be ready for service. The flowing matters have been forwarded by the Secretary for the attention of the Building Authority,al cubicles, 1,587; kitchen walls not rendered with non-absorbent material, 1116; insuficiem kitchen area (that is to say fess tran go square feet), 155; no hoods on kitchens, 212. That is the work that has been carried on so far and the work is still going on. Mr. P. flock:- How canny houses are there in No 5 Health District?
The President :-Roughly, 1 think between govend i ca.
Mr Pollock: And they have measured 167: The President:-Yes.
PLAGUE-INFECTED FOWLS.
The President-Since the last meeting of the Board it has been ascertained that there have been infected fowls also found at the Cntr Market. The usual measures are being taken, viz, destroying the infected crates and compelling stall holders to provide new crates. It is intended to give due com- pen-ation for any destruction that is necessary The Vice-President :-Might ask, sir, whgiber out of six fowls that have died only three were found to be infected ?
The President:On the Fath June there were six fowls sem lor examination, and out of the six four were found to be infecte 1 with plague; on the tath June two were sent-one infected, one not. On the toth likewise, two sent, one inf cled, one not.
The Vice-President: Is there anything t show whether they come from the same stall or shop, ne are they from the poultry section generally?
The Pics dent-The numbers are given. Those that were infected were from stalls 81, 61, 67, 81 and 84 on the 12th, 63 on the 14 b, two from stall 6; on the 15th, and from stall 63 on the roth. Inquiry has been made in order that we may be able to ascertain whether these kals might not have been imported into the Colany, I cannot give the Board the result of those inquiries yet. So far the Colonial Veter inary Surgeon says he has not found any dead fowls in the crates when they arrived from up country so the presumption is they become in- fected in the crates in which they are housed in the stalls of the market. I have seen some of these crates which were filthy dirty,
THE FLUSHING OF SEWERS. Mr. Pollock inquired in what position the question of flushing, sewers stond generally. He understand it was proposed to have tanks erected in Caine Rond or Robinson Road and try an experimental flushing in the central dis- trict of the city.
The Vice-President replied, that although in the ordinary course notice should be given of such a question there would be no objection to his informing the Board with regard to what had taken place. There was no proposal made to have tanks on the Caine Road level. In his report, Mr. Chadwick suggested that tanks of large capacity should be provided for flush- ing the sewers in the las portion of the city, which entirely concured with his own ideas in the mailer. It was the low level parts of the city where the gradients were so level for which the flushing was required, and Mr. Chadwick suggested thu one experimental tank might be provided. The site he proposed for it was underneath the Parade Ground, but the Military Authorities were approached and declined to have anything to do with a dush. ing tank. They then tried further up the bill with the St. John's Cathedral authorities and they likewise demurred greatly in having any thing to do with a flushing tank connected with the sewers. So they were now consider. ing some further means for the finding of a suitable site for the construction of the tank.
RATS AND CATS.
The President thought it would interest some of the public to know that the following letter had been received:-
The Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf und Godown Company, Limited.
Hongkong, June 17th, 1903. Dear Dr. Atkinson,-! -ticed in the report of the last meeting of the Sanitary Board a reference to the cats we keep in our odmene, and I thought it might interest you to learn the result of the experiment. At first, one or two
of the cats contracted plague, but we have had no sickness among them for a long time, and we rarely now see any rals, or traces of rat in our godowns or offices. The later used to be infested with the vermin, which would eat the backs off books in the night time, but this has now entirely ceased. In the godowns we used to catch 4 or 5 every night; but now, as I have already mentioned, there are apparently none to catch. This may partly be due to other causes than keeping cats, but we attribute it almas' entirety to the animals.
Yours truly,
R. J. MacgowaN.
STRAITS SETILEMENTS
CURRENCY,
The following article Is clipped from the Financial News -
The report of the committee (consisting of Sir David Barbour, Messrs. W. Adamson, G. W. jobrson, and W. Blain) appointed last November to consider the question of the establishment of a gold standard in the Straits Seulements and the neighbouring Malay States has now been published. The instructions were to report on (i) the expediency or other-

opinion that no objection should be raised on the part of His Majesty's Government to the principle of the change if the Government of the Straits Seulements, after considering all sides of the question, should decide finally in favour of an alteration from the silver to the gold standard.
Such a change is practicable. Special difficul ties are presented by the fact that the Stra-15 and Malay States do not use standard coins peculiar to them, and an indispensable part of any scheme for the establishment of a gold standard should be the substitution of a special currency, under the control of the Government, for the dollars now in use. The committee are not in favour of the proposal to The Straits Government should maintain extend the currency of India to the Straits
the standard themselves, which can be done by careful management. The plan recam- mended is to introdue a special Straits dollar of the same weight and fineness as the existing Br tisk dollars. With the arrival of the first supply of the new dollars (the export of which should be forbidden), and the making of them legal tender, the import of Mexican and British dollars should be temporarily prohibited, as it is likely this would lead to a drain of the old coins from the Straits Settlements. Ifthe new dollars were freely supplied the change of currency might be completed without any great delay. When the currency is so largely composed of the new dollars as to justify the measure the old dollars should be demonetised. After suffi cien: Straits dollars had been coined to meet the requirements of business in the colony and the adjoining States, the coinage of dollars daliar has reached whatever value in relation to would cease until the exchange,value of the the sovereign might be decided on by the Government as the future value of the Straits dollar. After this stage is reached the Straits Government would issue the new dollars in exchange for guld, and at the fixed rate.
