EXCHANGE IN BANGKOK. It will be remembered that at the beginning of May the Government reduced its balances with the three Exchange Banks in. Bangkok, the amount withdrawn being upwards of ticais 1,500,000. This was done with the view of strengthening exchange. But since then the balances of 100,00 or 500,00 ticals left with each Bank have been allowed to increase again, and, according to the local Times of 4th inst, instructions have raw been given by H, R. H. the Minister of Finane to bring the balances down once more. There will be over ticals 1,003,000 to withdraw this time, and in view of the fact that a good deal of paddy is now arriv. ing in Bangkok it is hoed exchange may be appreciably strengthened.
In taking over the money the Government propose to follow the same course as on the last occasion, when the money was not tested on being handed over Instead each Bak deposited the money it returned in a room at the Treasury, which was locked by an offi cial of the Bank, the Bank being prepared to take the money back in the same way without testing. This method has the advantage of saving a good deal of time,

RE-MODELLING
THE "SHAI MUT" AND THE“ TREMONT,”
The contract for re-modelling the giant freightex Showmut and Tremand, of the Boston Steamship Company's Alret, into passenger steamers, which has been awarded to Moran Bros,, is a work of considerable magnitude, and will result in placing upon the Pacific waters, with headquarters at Seattle, two steamships that will stand comparison in every way with the great trans-Atlantic liners, and with the big mail boals now plying between America and the Orient. The vessels were taken to the Meran shipyard July 1st, and are expected to appear on the water again in their new form about the middle of August.
The Shawmut and Tremont are 505 feet in length and 58 feet beam, and carry oppo close tons cach. They have been use. porting freight between Seattle and China, Japan and the Philippines.

Discussing the recent case of a British clerk being refused admission into the Philippines under the U. S. Immigration laws, the L. & C. Express says: It would seem that Mr. Shuster, the Collector of Customs at Manila, lakes very extreme views of his powers. 11 was not long since that the notorious case of a Chinainan, who landed from the Leongsang was before the public. Now the Hongkong correspondent of The Times wires that this ultra protectionist official has decided that, hy virtue of the provisions of the United States Immigration I aw, no foreigner under a written or implied contract can be allowed into the Philippines. The decision arose nut of the arrival of a British clerk for the Chattered Bank. This interpretation of! the laminaces all foreign business houses and banks which are chi v British, and will prevent them from importing assistants under contract, or rather agreement, which is and always has been, the rute with assistants going out to the East.
