His Excellency's Speech The information which H.E. the Governor gave in the Legis lative Council on Thursday in answer to the Hon. Mr. Pollock's roquest for information as to the prosent position of matters re- lating to the equipment of this port with a wireless telegraph Stritionis extremely disappointing. The only satisfactory feature of the statement is the evidence it affords of His Excelleney's trong support of the representa tions which have been made re- postodly on the subject by the Chamber of Commerce and the Unoffcial Menibers of Council, As the outcome of a correspond. suco between the Colonial Govern- meat and the Colonial Office, in London, which must-have-extend-- od, we suppose, from the time an American Company applied for a liconce to erect and carry on a commercial wireless telegraph service in the Colony, now quile three years ago, the community informed that, as regards a high- power station we must wait and seo--the results of experimente being carried out elsewhere; and ns to a low-power station, which the Imperial Government in will- ing should be provided here, events are progressing with what speed exporte can make in the matter." Why there should ba so much delay in providing wireless telegraph communication in a shipping centre like Hong- kong, where it would be of the greatest possible service to the business community," is incom-
WHISKY prehensible.
