More Earthquakes in the Persian Gulf.

Bombay, November 1.-A Bunder Ab bas correspondent says that after an inter val of nearly two months there has been a repetition of the earthquake shocks.

On this occasion they occurred in the early hours of the morning, thereby causing no little commotion, but no damage was done as the shocks were not severe,

The town is now quite full. Everything To the more wears a normal appearance. timid the earthquake has not lost all its terrors, for the Persian Zadkiels foretell the most dreadful calamities, including earthquakes, during the month of Rama-

zan.

It is reported that in the Island of Kishm shocks of earthquakes are of frequent ⚫ccurrence, the disturbances taking place almost every day.

Kishm, like Bunder Abbas, is also full of people. The houses are in ruins and the

Turko-Italian Amenities in the Red Sea.

Bombay, November 1.---The Aden corre spondent of the Times of India relates a rather curious story of the troubles between the Turks and the Italian warships at Hodeida.

Two Italian warships arrived off the part and asked, with a hint of using active measures, for the recovery of the property looted by the Arabs from the pearl divers at the Port of Dahlak, which is under the Italian Governinent.

They served a notice that the Turkish Authorities must pay sixty thousand dollars, or the port would be bombarded within twentyfour hours,

The Turks pleaded for time to find the rubbers, and two days were allowed, but the agent of the Italian Consul lowered his flag and went aboard the warships.

This action caused a scare in the town, which was not diminished by the warships refusing to allow a Turkish gunboat in the port to leave, even firing shots across her bows to stop her doing so.

Finally a British warship arrived with the Italian Consul, who opened his office again..

The Vali of Sana sont an order to the Hodeida authorities saying-Bu ready for Action. Do not fire at them before they commenco to fire at you. Secure and pro- tect the town as well as you can. Try your utmost not to let them land.'

According to this instruction the Treasury and the Courts at Hecida removed to a distance outside of the town, together with the Custom-house officials and the telegraph

office.

Eventually, however, a settlement was arrived at. Hodeida was not bonbarded, two Turkish officers going aboard the war- ships to help in the search for the robbers.

AN ABSENTEE JUKOR.

Having failed to appear in Court yeator- day morning when his name was called, Mr H. F. Carmichael was summoned to appor before His Lordship to-day to explain his absence.

LATE TELEGRAMS.

Lord Rosebery and the War Office.

November 1.-Lord Rosebery, speaking at Edinburgh, criticised the new Army Scheme, which has been prepared in the absence of the best officers away in South Africa. Lord Kitchener should have been given powers to deal with both War Ofice and the Army Reform. Lord Rosebery said he would, if necessary, have appointed Lord Kitchener Secretary for War, in preference to sending him to India. His speech was possimistic. He said that he did not see any prospect of a Liberal Government in the near future,

Dr B. O'BRIEN, M.D., Civil Surgeon, Faizabad, says :-Mr N. Lazarus, optician oxamined my vision to-day, and I have much pleasure in testifying to the accuracy with which he determined the proper glasses for me to wear. His method of examination is a very ingenious and ac curate one, and by it he should be able to ascertain the proper glasses for the cor- rection of all the errors of refraction met with in the eye.

Surgeon-Major G. O. HALL in charge of the Ego Rospital, Allahabad, says:—I have tested your Patent Refraction Test, and find it remarkably good and accurate, and I think it should prove very useful to all who are called upon to treat errors of refraction, specially Astigmatism, which i so common and yet so frequently over- looked.

Dr BEAUMONT, F.R.C.S., M.D sidency Surgeon, Hyderabad, says :--Mr Lazarus has shown me his method of testing the eyes of persons whose vision is de. fective, and I consider that any one requir ing Spectacles may depend on bsing care- fully fitted by him.
