BREACH OF CONTRACT.
́DRIED LYCHRES IN COUNT.
.
In Summery Jurisdiction, His Honour Mr. A..G. Wise, Puisne judge, presiding, the Han Bing firm sued the Wo Loong firm, for the recovery of the sum of 3260, being the amount of damages sustained by the plaintiffs by reason of the defendants having committed a breach of a contract, dated 2nd June, 1986, and en- tered into with the plaintifs.
Mr. E. J. Grist, of Messro Wilkinson and Grist, appeared for the plaintiff firin, Mr. R./A. Harding representing the defendants,
Mr. Grist said that this cave arose out of a breach of contract by defendants, whereby the plaintiffs had sustained loss and damages to the amount of $60 On the 22nd June ahe parties entered into a contract whereby, the dafendants undertook to sell and deliver to the plaintiffs 200 cases of preserved, or dried lychees. Flaintiffs then sold the cases to a third party for delivery on a later date. Defendants, however, failed deliver the cases to plaintiffs, which caused the latter not only to lose the profits on the re-sale, but they had to pay to the third party the value of the goods they had failed to deliver, as they also committed a breach of contract. They now claimed the amount with costs.
to
For the defence it was turged that no date was specified for the delivery, and the reason they were not delivered promptly was that at the time when the defendants wanted their agents in China to ship the goods there was difficulty about getting a steamer. They submitted that they were not responsible for the loss arising out of the re-sale, but non- delivery, to the third party

SOFT FOR GOODS SOLD.
· AN "IGNORANT PLAINTIFY."-
At the Supreme Court this morning, before His Honour Mr. A. G Wise, Puisne Judge, presiding in Summary Jurisdiction, the Wing Fute Wa firm, of No. 15, Hunghom, grocer, sued Chan Fuk, alias Chan Lai Tong, of No. 83 Temple Street, Vaumati, for the recovery of the sum of $63.03, being the balance alleged to be due by defendant to plaintiffs for goods sold and delivered by the latter to the former.
Mr. F. C. Barlow, of Messrs. Goldring and- Barlow, appeared for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Otto Kong Sing represented the defendant."
Mr. Barlow applied for leave to amend the sintement of claim as his client had made a mistake in the part culars.
His Honour to Mr. Quo Hong Sing): What is your defence? Is this a question of accounts?
"A CORRESPONDENT welles in a state ofwonder as to when the Star Ferry Company is going to begin to consider the comfort and convenience of its patrons a little more, and its own purse a bit less. 11 was two weeks yesterday since the mashed on the Hongkong side of the com- pany's wharves was blown over, and still passengers are at the mercy of the sun or raig while waiting for a ferry on that whatf.

The case was then adjourned,
not object to any amendment whatever, as my client never had the goods at all, and never bad any dealings with the plaintiff
The statement id claim was then amended. Mr. Barlow called the plaintiff, Yau Fuk, who stated that he was the master of the plaintiff firm. He had known defendant for the last three or four years. He first began doing business. with him in or about March, 1903, but ceased in April, 1974, as defendant could not be induced to settle up the account. Defendant then owed $72.36. Producing his account-book, plaintiff said his last transaction with defendant was on 24th August, 1904.

Canton, 19th September. residing near Swatow, sent a despatch to the Mr. Liao Shai Boong, a weather scientist, Board of Commerce at Peking, through the. eneral Chamber of Commerce at Canton, stating that the Eastern province of Pechili and Kwangtung are suitable for growing beet. ront and sugar-cane respectively, “and these two products can be used for the manplaciure of all kinds of sugar. At present there is

GERMAN TRADING ENERGY,
ARE THE GREAT LINES SUBSIDISED.?
. POLITICS AND TRADE COMBINED, The importance of the situation created by the remarkable development that is taking
place in the German mercantile marine is by no means under-estimated in leading shipping circles in the City, but there is considerable divergence of opinion as jo the causes of that development and the best means of meeting the competition which is becoming day by day more acute...T
The belief most certainly prevails that-be- bind the great German shipping companies stands the German Government, That the Hamburg-American Line enjoys a large sub. sidy is certain, but what the amount really is there is no possible means of ascertaining with
accuracy.
Sir Dudley Forwood shrugged his shoulders when a representative of the Poll Mall Gositie put the question to him to-day (Aug, 28) and remarked that no company, without Govern- ment assistance could go on doing what the great German line was doing,
It is a curious thing," he continued, that British shippers work on most amicable terms competitors, but not with the German. The with their French, Spanish, Italian, and other Germans hold aloof; they cut prices, and take advantage of whatever opportunity offers in a way that no other nationality would do.”
Is there no way of meeting such rivals ?" "Certainly. We must fight them with an energy equal to their own; and such a report as that of the American Consul General at
