At the one interview de fondant only said that Biancy bullied him, but he did not explain how, or in what the bully. ing consisted.
Mr. Pollock: Here is a lever from Chang Shun Koo to you, complaining that Bisney had made him certain promises which had not been fulfilled. Did Chräg Shun Koo refer to those promises to you?
Witness: He mentioned about being bullied, but did not refer to Disney's promises. As re gards the Daily Press he said he thought the repairs could be carried out without interfering with them, but he found they couldn't..
Mr. Pollock: Did not Chang Shun Koo com.

refused, and then the complaints began. Ths Astier piniliced, dated 18th May, was written by witness to Chang Shun Koo, nwhich witness said he would ask for the concession from Ho Tung. He did ask for the concession and if was refused. He wrote that letter in Chang Shun Kno's office. Defendant very often asked witness to try and find tenants for him for the premises,
Crossax mined by Mr. Pollock, witness said he showed the letter produced to io Tung some time after the agreement had been signed. He did it casually, and was looking through papers when this happened to come to hand and he picked it up and showed it to him; '
Mr. Pollock Did. you never show that authority too Tung befate the agreement was signed?
Witness: No, certainly not; I never show my documents to anyone-not in any instance

bullied? Did he, not say he had been de ceived?
Witness: No, he simply said bullied, and I told him he was a business man and should be able to look after himself,
Re-examined by Mc. Sharp, witness said, patting aside the question of whether the defendant did or did not get the keys in January, he knew he could have had them at any time-he place was always practically open. Defendant did not make any special charges against Mr. Bisney, but mentioned the bullying in a casual way.
Mr. Bisney, sworn, said he lived at the Hongkong Hotel. He was an estate broker, carrying on business in this Colony, He knew' the premises the subject of this suit; he acted # broker for Mr. Ho ung in the purchase from Mesis. Babington and Mody.
Witness bere reiterateil the terms of the pur chase, and said prior to his negotiating on behalf of Ho Tung, Chang Shun Koo was negotiating for the purchase, but 'Ho Tung's negotiations went through.
Witness then spoke as to defendant's ap proaching him to secure a lease of the next bouse, saying it was to he used as a hotel of boarding house, fe arranged that lease with the Land Investment Co Subsequently de: fendant approached him to arrange a further lease of the house in dispute. That was about a week alter the other lease had been settled. Witnessthen approached Mi, llo Tung, and the latter igile terais. Witness had no written record of those terins, but he remem- hered them. Witness here cited the terms as above.
The Coun adjourned for tidlin,
After the adjournment, Mr. Hisney continued his evidence in corroboration of the evidence of the last witness, and said that, when he was negotinting for the lease, defendant said if it had not been for him he (defendant) would have secured the purchase of the property on the same terms. Defendant said he wouki like the Daily Press to stay there permanently, as they were paying jobd rent, and the premises would not need so much alteration. That was
the 10th December, that he was willing to spend $10,000 or $15,000 on alterations. He finally came down to $5,000, and to those terms were not mentioned in the document. J
Mr. Pollock: If it was finally agreed that Chang Shun Koo was to speed money on the premises, why, was it not mentioned in the agreement?
Wirness: suppose because it was quite understood, or its omission was an oversight. The letter of agreement produced, in duplicate, was in witness's handwriting. He could not tell which one he wrote first. As regards the clause The lessor will have the benefit of the rents, he believed that was written at the same time as the rest of the section.
Mr. Pollock: Was, it dot squeezed in after. wards ?
Witness: I very often make omissions and then on reading over a document at the time insert the omitted clause.
Mr. Pollock: Didn't Ho Tung Witness: No, he didn't.

Witness: No, I had nis conversation with Hn Tung on the subject.
Mr. Pollock is not all this talk about a betel or boarding-house il talk and nonsense?

Mr. Pollock: Here's another showing you received a letter on the 12th May,
Witness: received several from that writer. on the 12th May. Seeing the signatures I must trave received a letter on the dates in question, though I have no recollection of them.
Witness, continuing,said that on the occasion he wrote the letter in Chang Shun Koo's office he had considerable conversation with him,
Mr. Pollock: You wrote that leller in con- sideration of Chang's handing you back a letter you had previously written?
Witness: No! I didn't
Mr. Pollack: I put it to you that you did, and that he handed you fack your letter telf. ing bin that the Daily Press would vacate in February, and yan, tere it up.

said during the negotiations for the lease. The postscript ref pred to was a simple oversight on wi ́ness's part, and it was inserted without demur on the part of Chang. Shun Koo. The .agreement produced was written at witness's office and sighed at Chang Shun Koo's house, Defendant asked witness to try to negotiate for The Daily. Press to remain on, and witness saw Mr. Hle of that office, who said that another agreement hal heen enteret into by which they were absolutely bound. It was not cor rect, as had been said, that witness informed defendant that the Daily Prest would vacate in February, 1995. There was no foundation for that statement, nor for the statements madé by Chang Shun Koo that witasss promised him six months' vacant possession There was no promist whatever as to what date the Daily Preis would vacate, Witness did not then know the due, himself. Their new premises. were then occupied by Dodwell & Co., but witness did not know when that firm vacated the premises. In the negotiations for the sale and the subsequené tease wilness noted for both sides. During the negotiations in Mr. Deacon's office Chang Shun Koo said he could not pay the $7,500 cash sucurity, and asked Ho Tung to accept a second mortgage on some other pro- perty in lieu therenf.. Mr. Ho Tung accepted the suggestion. Owing to the difficulty of obtaining the signatures of the mortgagees to the lease it was agreed that Ho Tung should give the defendant an indemnity instead of the joinder. Mr. Victor Deacon made the sugges tion of indemnity The documents were drawn up in the office of Messrs. Deacon, 1.ooker and Deacon, and duly signed, and they were delivered in defendant in witness's presence.
Defendant had told witness that the premises were to be used as a hotel ar boarding house. At the end of Feliquary at beginning of March defendant told witness that the syndicateha fall- en through, and consequevily the hotel scheme had also fallen through. He then asked wit- ness to see Ho Tung and ask for some con- cession in rent, as he was in difficully, as he could not find any tenants; his scheme and the synticate had fallen through; the contractor was asking Higher rates, and there were Chi- pese failures, Defendant asked the concession Early this morning everyone connected with as a favour, and not at all as a right.

On making inquiries from different sources we learn that the cause of the collapse was due to the recent heavy rains, which soaked into the walls, causing the mortar to give.
