LOCAL ENACTMENT AGAINST COUNTY-FED ARTICLE. İŞİ
this afternoon, the Hen, the Attorney General At the meeting of the Legislative Council
(Mr. E: H. Sharp, R.C) moved the first reading of the following Bill. It is in substitution for the Ordinance passed not long ago dealing with the same subject.
As explained in the "objects and reasons" appended to the drakt Ordinance the purpose of this measure is to give effcer in the Colony to Article VIII of the Brussels Sugar Conven. tion, rgoz,, by empowering the Governor-in- Council to make such regulations as he shall deem necessary for the said purpose, and by prohibiting the importation of bounty-fed sugar.
The full text of the Bill is as follows;- A Bill emilled an Ordinance to give effect to Article VII! of the Brussels Sugar Convention, 1902,

A Bill was introduced into the Legislative Council, and passed the first reading this afternoon, to enable "The Trustees of Saint John's Cathedral Church in Hongkung" ta hold and deal with property for the purpose of promoting the work of the Church of England in Hongkong and China. In explanation of the object of the Bill the Attorney General appends to the draft the remark that it is to supply the nced which has long been felt of the existence of some statutory corporate body empowered to hold and deal with property for the use of the Church of England in this Colony and in China. A corporation was constituted under the name of "The Trustees of Saint John's Cathedral Church in Hongkong" by the Cathedral Ordinance of 1899. That body was provided for, as regards the Cathedral itself, and it is not intended by the new Ordinance to alter or derogate from the statutory powers conferred upon them as regards the A. S. WATSON & Co., Cathedral. Additional powers are conferred by the measure now brought for the con- LIMITED.
sideration of the Council. As specifically stated in section 2, they are to acquire, accept leases of, purchase, take, hold, and enjoy, any lands, buildings, messuages, or tenements, and any other property, of what nature or kind soever and wheresoever situale, for the purpose of endowing, supporting,
Girers and other weapons. It is doubtful, how maintaining, carrying on or otherwise proever, whether the superiority claimed for this moting the work of the Church of England type of warship will long remain unchallenged, in Hongkong, or in China, whether such work shall be of a religious, exfucational or social nature, or otherwise." The power of disposal of property is secured to the Trustees by the following section 3 A saving clause is provided reserving the
politic or corporate. Certain properties are the Church of England in the diocese, which will doubtless be added to in the future, and it is most desirable that all such property should be duly vested in a corporate body for its safe keeping and to facilitate any necessary dealing with it.
To this end the Bill will be regarded as a necessary enact- ment to be added to the Statute Book of the Colony.
