Ordinary procedure would ultimately reveal whether or no the Provisioral President was connect with the affair, remotely or otherwise, and, cou- sequent on this, the hajarity st the Presidential election would exercise is influence in the way it deems fit. The election of some ther candidate, besides deposing Yuan, would endow lie successor with the power to take steps to prosecute the late Provisional President, the result of which procedure would be a clearing up of the whole matter.

The 1906 typhoon obtained its potoriety, not by excessive wind fotce; but by the excessive dam- age done to shipping, owing partly to the failure of the fore casts and partly to the fact that the gale came from the weat, to which quarter the harbour is more exposed than to any other.
