It is thought here that there were perhaps no facilities at the time in the quarantine sheds of Singapore for the detention of the cattle and that the buly
coureo was to send the ship to sea and have the animals slaughtered.
There has been some comment in the Press at the delay on the part of Singapore in sending of Belal Information to the Veterin- ary Department,
Maung Kyin Shein, the editor of the popular Burmese newspaper Wunthanu, who was recently pro- secuted for sedition, its sent à written apology to the Government of Burma. He admits that an arti- ele by him was grossly seditious, and undertakes never again to re- | peat the offence. The Government
