ASSESSMENT.
The Colonial Secretary laid on the table the report on the assessment for 1994-1995, and Dr. Hunter's research into plague.
HONGKONG NURSING INSTITUTION.
The Hon. Director of Public Works laid on the table the report of proceedings of the Public Works Committee at a meeting held on the 19th July, 1901. At that meeting the Chairman said that, at Sir Paul Chater's request, which was made at the last meeting of the committee held on the 12th instant, he had asked for an explanation of the position from the Government, and the following statement,
which he read out, made it quite clear :-)
The correspondence shews clearly that the Nursing Institute dissociated itself from the Government nursing establishment altogether, and shows that Government offered to build a four-roomed house for the nurses of the private institution (Elengkong Nursing Institution) but that no site was fixed on. Subsequently the Hongkong Nursing Institution obtained a gradit of $12,000 in lieu of the provision of such quarters and there the matter rests. The Government has not promised any particular site to the Hongkong Nursing Institution.
Sir Paul Chater said it was as well to have this on record.
The Chairman then put to the vote the matter of the extension of the present Govern- ment Civil Hospital, staff quarters for the accommodation of the Sisters, at an estimated cost of $:6,000, and it was unanimously agreed
to.
AMENDMENT OF BYE-LAWS,
The Colonial Secretary replied as follows; 1.. Yes..
2. The tree cutting is part of the scheme of forestry by which the Government intend to maintain for future generations the same ad- vantages as are now, enjoyed by the present one from the beauty, salubrity, water conser vaucy and timber production of the pine pianta tions. If the mature trees were not gradually replaced by young ones these advantages would soon be lost. The methods employed are those usually practised for the maintenance of closely planted coniferous forest. In order to plant it is necessary to fell, but every possible consideration will be paid each year to the interests of the residents at the time.
PRESERVATION OF WILD BIRDS.
The Hon. Attorney General moved the first reading of a Bill entitled An Ordinance to amend The Wild Birds and Game Preservation Ordinance, 1885.
. The objects of the Bill are to make the com- mencement of the statutory close season for pheasants and partridges coincide with the commencement of the close season as already recognised in game licences, and to prevent the trapping of these birds during the close season, and to avoid the cruelty attendant upon keeping the live birds in confinement. It is intended to exempt from the operation of the Ordinance, under special licence from the Captain Superintendent of Police, the sale of birds as pets by bird fanciers.
The Colonial Secretary seconded. Carried.

He said he thought the figures were very satisfactory, and mentioned that it was just possible that some of the items of revenue night not be realised, and should that con- tingency arise the matter would be brought before the Council.

THE GOVERNOR'S SPEECH. H. E. the Governor said that as that was the first meeting he had attended, the members might like to hear a few words from him in regard to the estimates just placed before them. It was practically a Public Works estimate. They had entered into a large number of im- pastant operations, and having entered into contracts in regard to these operations they had to carry them through. The principal item was. for Waterworks. For these works they pro posed to spend $800,000 out of a total of $1,815,310, that was to say 44 per cent of the Public Works Extraordinary vote. The other works to which they were committed were Bacteriological Laboratory, the Harbour Office; the Law Courts, the Western Market and the Post Office all of which were in hand. For these $490,000 of the $1,815,310 were required, or 26 per cent of the whole. To improve the sanitary condition of the lown it was estimated that $150,000, or eight per cent. of the total would be required. These were all continuation services. The new services numbered 4, 8, 11, 12 14 which were
and 16 of the Estimates were com paratively small works. The result of this compulsory large vote on Public Works was that they would spend 34 per cent of the estimated revenue. For the military vote they spent fg per cont; for the maintenance of law and order they spent 13 per cent; for the health of the Colony they spent 11 per cent; for the Post Office s per cent.; for plib. lic instruction 3 per cent, and general admi- nistration and miscellaneous services in all 9 The Hon.

.THE COLONY'S ORDINANCES. The Hon. Attorney General moved that the thanks of the Council be conveyed to Sir John Wortell Carrington, C.M.G, formerly Chief Justice of Hongkong, for his services in carrying through and completing the revised edition of the Colony's Ordinances. It was difficult, he said, to realise the amount of care, judgment and labour envolved in work that had entailed the consideration of sixty years of ordinances, some of which had been repealed, others cousolidated, omitted or re-worded. It was to Sir John a labour of love his only return being the pleasure of
performing his duty and serving the Colony, When he volunteered to do the work, Sir John Carrington though the ordinances should be thoroughly revised every ten years; but the work in future would be comparatively light with such a foundation to go upon.
The Colonial Secretary seconded: Carried.

The Hon. Attorney General also moved that until further notice the Hongkong Tramway Electric Co., Ltd., shall every morning, and evening provide the following number of cars for the convenience of artisans, mechanics and daily labourers at fares not exceeding a cents for the single journey and 3 cents for the retur journey :-

- INTERNMENT OF REFUGEES. The Hon. Attorney General moved the first reading of a Bill entitled An Ordinance to ro gulate the Internment of Refugees belonging to the Russian and Japanese forces.
The object of this Bill is the regulation, in accordance with the principles of international law, of the internment of any person belonging to the forces of Russia or Japan who, during the present war between those countries, may seek refuge under the British jurisdiction, and may come within the Colony. The immediate occasion for the Bill is that certain officers and men of the Russian torpedo boat destroyer Harni (which was lately stranded on the coast of China) sought refuge at Wei-bai-wei, and came thenre to Hongkong, and are now in termed here in accordance with the principles aforesaid, and with the instructions of the Secretary of State for the Colonic

Such articles have hitherto, owing to the language of the definition of "prepared opium" in the principal Ordinance, escaped any tax or royalty
WOMEN AND GIRLS ORDINANCE, The Attorney General moved the first read- ing of a Bill 'entitled an Ordinance to amend the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1897.
The object of this Bill is to enable the police to deal more effectively with the evil of so- called "sly brothels" by reviving the provi sions of the Protection of Women and Girls Ordinance, 1899, regarding penalties imposed on brothel keepers. At present these persons, as their houses are from time to time ordered to be closed by a Magistrale, continue to remove, and so keep beyond the reach of any penalty. The need has also been found for a more expeditious way of bringing such persons. before a Magistrate, as they a' scond on receiving a summons.
The Colonial Secretary seconded, Carried.
The Council adjourned.
