STATEMENT BY FISHERMEN.
Some idea of the terrible scenes which fal- lowed the torpedoing of the Japanese vessels. may be gathered from the story of some fisber:* folk who were engaged in their vocation off Genkai Nada at the time of the disaster. They were about forty miles from the share, balweeb Oshims and Okinoshima, and heating wild shouts for help, found a number of men, some, of whom were holding up signals of distress, The Sada, in company with the flucht, was passing west by south of Okinoshima, when struggling in the water.

The Russians then steamed men, A high south-westerly wind was blow- round the Hitachi, which was stationary, anding, but the fishermen, did their utmost to make again fired at her. Two or three war-ships signalled the Sado and a foreign officer at once lett the ship and went on board one of the Russian vessels. He returned shortly, and entered into conversation with the foreign Captain on the bridge of the Sado. Presently two officers boarded the Sade from the nearest war-ship. One of them stood on the gangway, while the other, accompanied by three sea- men, went into the Captain's cabin and
after a
short conversation took away as
prisoners the officers of the steamer, about fifteen in number. The officer who kept watch at the gangway spoke Japanese, and
gave an order to the effect that all on board should leave the ship in one hour if they did not wish to be drowned... He said the vessel would be sunk by a torpedo. The naval officer Sir John Leng (Liberal Member for in charge of the Sadd issued orders that the Dundee) has given notice to ask Mr. Bal-crew should leave first and the non-combatants four whether, in view of the objections to follow. The military officers had already de the increased taxation, he will place a time. cided upon their course.

A fishing-boat was met near the island and signals were made for assistance. The fishing-boat took aboard half the number, about twenty, and both boats arrived safely at the island at about 7 p.m. A hard north-westerly wind was blowing at the time with rain. At night the Russian ships were observed to be active in the use of their searchlights. The refugees remained at the island till about 3 a.m., waiting for the wind and sea to abate, but as the Rus sian ships sill remained, the boats risked the heavy sea and made for Kokura. Another boat was at the island, but it was impossible to ascertain who were its occupants owing to the rough sea.
THE ILL-FATED HAESHIIN. Mr. T. Weir, Marine Superintendent of the C. M. 8. N. Co., at Shanghai, received the fol- lowing telegram from Wenchow, from Captain
Lowe of the Haeshin:-

THE "HITACHI MARU."
A SAD STORY,
Sergeant Tadokoro Kamematsu and thirty. four other survivors of the Hitacht Maru re- lated their sad story as follows:-When it be came clear that hething could be done on board, Lieutenant-Colonel Suchi, Commander of the Regiment, ordered his men to burn-the-regi mental flag and all the important letters. The order was promptly obeyed and the flag, which had been held by Ensign Okuho, was burnt together with the important letters. Having ascertained that all these things had been de- stroyed, Lieutenant-Colonel Suchi committed suicide with his pistol, while Mr. Yamagata, Commander of a battalion, and Lieutenant Nagao, Commander of a company, mitted sepuku.

AS ANOTHER SOLICITOR
ADMITTED
TO PRACTISE AT HONGKONG,
At the Supreme Court this morning, the Hon. H. E. Pollock, K.C., introduced to his Lordship the Chief Justice, Mr. Harold George Charles Bailey, and moved that he be admitted to practise as an attorney and proctor in the
Court.
Counsel said:-May it please your Lordship, I beg leave to move that, in accordance with notice of motion, which has been filed, that Mr. larold George Charles Bailey may be admit- ted to practise, as an attorney and proctor in this Court. As your Lordship will see from the affidavit, which has been filed, Mr. Bailey
was admitted to practise as a solicitor in the Suprente Court of Judicature in England on the 6th December, 1898, and he has for the past six years, with the exception of sixteen months when he served the British Forces in

THE FOREIGN OFFICIALS. GALLANT CONDUCT OF CAPT, CampuELL. Attogether there were at the time of the disaster seven foreign officers on board the two vessels--three on the Hitachi and four on the Sado. Those on the Hitachi were Captain Campbell (in command), Mr. Bishop, Chief Officer, and Mr. Glass, Chief Engineer; and on the Sade Captain Anderson (in command), Mr. Dring, Chief Officer; Mr. Kerr, Chief Engineer; and Mr. Carmichael, Second Eu- gineer.
We (Kole Chronicle) learn by. telegram from the Ujina office of the Nippon Yusen Kaisha that of these officers Mr. Kerr is the only one known to be saved. Reports in the vernacular papers lead to the supposition that some have lost their lives, but it may still be hoped that most of the officers were taken on the Russian vessels. From a Saseho dispatch to the Asahi, Captain Anderson, of the Sado has been saved and is all well at Okinoshima, while the same journal the Hitachi, states that Captain Campbell, went down with the ship. The message speaks in the highest possible terms of the gallant conduct of Captain Campbell. "He coolly died at his post with the Japanese military officers, and his conduct metits the sympathy of the whole nation. The fact that he placed more value upon his duty than his life is truly admirable." The message adds that Captain Campbell served for twenty years as captain of Nippon asen Kaisha vessels and rendered dis. tinguished services to Japan during the Japan China War. That Captain Campbell would do his duty nobody who has met him would doubt for a moment, but we sincerely trust that. the news of his death may prove incorrect, Other dispatches, though not actually announ cing the death of the European officers, agree that their behaviour during the disaster was admirable in the extreme, and all that could possibly be expected.

AT THE METROPOLE THEATRE,
On Saturday evening the first of a series of entertainments of the music-hall type was given at the Metropole Theatre, situated at Mr. J Christie's establishment, the Metropole Hotel' A crowded audience assisted at the debut, and the performance was a good one auguring well for the success of this new enterprise. These entertainments are to take place every Satur THE P. & O. S, N. Co.'s Steamship day until further notice. Mr. Arthur James gave several good character songs and was frequent- ly applauded.

The evening was an enjoyable one and future entertainments are likely to be well patronised by the Hongkong public.
