Specialisation of function is the basis of. nedern industrial organisation, and it is most instructive to observe how highly this principle has been developed under the rule of the Works Committoo of the County Council. Every man in the gang had hie own separate function, to which he exclu- 1369 sively applied himself according to the regulations of the labour union connected with his particular job.

Und the old, system, before combination and specia isaton were developed, half a dozen men working without any organisa- ation or method would have fotched the materials in wheelbarrows, mixed them up together, and shovelled the lot into the hole. But Aldwaych is not being made in any such higgledy-piggledy fashion......
To begin with, a mixing board some ten feet square is placed on the ground, and around this the mixers, all members of the Mixera Union, armed with shovels wait for the materials to be brought and deposi ted on the board by the various specialists exclusively charged with the several depart ments of that function. First wheel- barrow full of rubble is brought and placed on the board by one man. He is a member of the Ruble Wheelers' Union. Haring completed his tank, he removes himself and his barrow to one side and looks on while the other operations proceed.
a member of the Sand Shovellers' Union
comes upon the scene, shovels some sand upon the heap, and retires to assist the ruble wheeler to look on. It is now the turn of a member of the League of Opera- attive Cement Fetchers, who delicately adds the due proportion of cement and resumes his seat on a cement sack.

The charter party was in writing and was made between the defendunt and one Su Yeung, the mas ter of the lorchs, on bohalf of the plaintiffs, the owners of the torcha.

On or about Feb 4, 1901, the defendant paid to the plaintifs $1500, the charter money for the first month, and loaded on board the lorche apparatus for salving the cargo of the value of $4039.39 for carriage to the place of the wreck. On February 9, 1901, the lorcha sailed from Hongkong And on the 12th was wrecked by reason of the ordinary perils of navigation before coming to the island of Mindoro and with out having loaded the aforesaid cargo, and the apparatus was totally lost. Br non-fulfilment by the plaintiffs of the charter party the cost to the defendant of carrying out tho salvage operations was increased by 8185, in addition to the cont of new apparatus to replace that Jost #19 aforesaid. The sum of $1850 was inade up of 81500 charter money paid to the plaintiffs as aforesaid, and 3800 extra expenses incurred in consequence of the loss of the said lorcha.

The defence of counterclaim stated that the plaintiffs admitted receiving from the defendant on or about Fobruary 4, 1901, the sum of $1550, as charter money for one month paid in advance, but denial their liability to refund the same.

The plaintiffs as to the several sums of $32 and $105 referred to in the counterclaim had paid into Court the sum of $137 and say that that sum was enough to satisfy

Hongkong Tides. The tide table given below has been compiled at the Nautical Almanac Office in London from the result of the analysis of observations taken by means of an au- tomatic tide-recording machine in the Wa- ter Police Basin at Tsim Sha Tsui during
the years 1887-8-9.
The zero of the table corresponds with the zero of the soundings in the Admiralty Charts which has been found to be 4 feet 3 inches below mean sea level.
To obtain the depth of water on the tide gauge at the Victoria Naval Yard add 3 feet 4 inches, and on, the gauge at Lamont Dock, Abordeen, add 10 feet 6 inches to the height given in the table.
