Shots in Street. Opening the case for the Crown, Mr. J. A. Fraser, Assistant At- torney General, said the scene of the shooting was outside 19, Lynd- hurst Terraco, in which road Mr. Lo, L. S. C. 142, and Mr. Ng Tak-ance 1873; (2) A Bill for the Capital

Mr. Lo ran into No. 19, a shop on the other side of the road, where were three fokis and two ladies. A second shot was fired and Lo and the folds concealed themselves in Three more shots were the shop. then heard, either just inside or outside the shop, and the assailant then threw down his weapon and
ran.
Mr. Ng Tak-wing, the Sorgeant, and Det-Inspector Chu Heung, who lived close by, pursued the man down Gage Street, Chuk Hing Lane, Gutzlaff Street, Wellington Street, Graham Street, Queen's Road, Peel Street, Wellington Street, and Staveley Street, where he was caught by Mr. Ng Tak- wing. The constable had stopped to pick up a jacket which the man discarded as he ran, and the detec tive had returned to the premisa to search for the injured man. Ac- cused was taken to the police station, and it was there found that
he had a mark on his hand.
Experiments had been made with the weapon in the presence of the prisoner, and evidence would be given that firing it in the special position in which it had to be held, might leave a mark corresponding to that on prisoner's hand.
Tell-Tale Mark. Evidence bearing
out Mr. Fraser's statement was given by retired LS.C. 142, (whose retire- ment took effect on the day of the shooting,) Detective Inspector Chu Heung, and Mr. Ng Tak-wing.
Mr. V. C. Branson, Government Analyst, gave evidence that the stain on accused's hand contained traces of lead, and Police Armourer J. E. Scott said he had fired the weapon with a glove and found that It left a mark on the glove in a similar position to the mark on Chan H's hand.
His Lordship addressing the jury said they merely had to decide whe- ther the shot that struck Mr. Lo was fired by accused, and it seom- ed clear to his mind that this was the case.
After a short rotirement the jury returned a verdict of "guilty," and the Chief Justice passed sentence as stated above.

Alexandria make provision for the redemption | natavia of the bonds issued under the Berlin authority of the Public Works Loan Ordinance, 1927.
The Attorney Goneral (Hon. Mr. C. G. Alabaster) will move the first reading of a Bill to amend the law relating to oplum
The objects and reasons for the new Bill are stated as follows:
Under Article 6 of the Agreo- mont concerning the manufacture of, the internal trade in, and the use of prepared oplum, which was signed at Geneva on the 11th February, 1926, His Majesty's Gov- ernment undertook to prohibit the purchase and sale of dross excopt when
the dross is sold to the
monopoly.
Section 13 of Ordinance No. 7 of 1932 as amended by section 4 of Ordinance No. 30 of 1932 did not expressly enact this prohibition and apparently authorised sales by the superintendent; though in fact no such sales have ever been made or
proposed. Section 2 of this anand ing Ordinance therefore repeals section 13 and substitutes a drafted section.
Opium Dross.
TO-
In the Bubstituted sub-acction the words "under scation 10" are now and are added to make the sub- section conform with sub-section (2) which is a re-enactment of sub- section (2) of Ordinance No. 7 of 1932 as amended by section 8 of Ordinance No. 86 of 1932. More- over the words "or any opium dross" at the end of the sub-section have been omitted in the substitut- ed sub-section (1).
In the substituted sub-section (8) the words "or opium dross," which appeared in the sub-section added to the principal Ordinance by No. 36 of 1982, have been omitted.
Sub-section (4) is new and con- tains the prohibition required by Article 6 of the Agreement of the 11th February, 1926,
Section 3 of this amending ordin- ance adds a sub-section to section 15 of the principal Ordinance. The section already penalisas the keepers of opium divans and the smokers therein. The added sub- section, which is drafted on the lines of section 11 of Ordinance No. 4 of 1897, brings within the scope of the section owners, occupiers and managers of premises who knowingly Buffer them to be used as divana.
