With ships built in England the case is different; in anarmoured ships the material costs only 45 per cent., and wages about 55 per cent. of the total; but in ships fitted with armour it amounts the cost of material is greater; to nearly 69 per cent, of the total. An unarmoured ship of 3000 to 600 tons dis- placement, and of 21 to 22 knots spoed, can be built in Japan, according to Admiral Sa- Sow's estimate, nearly 15 per cent. cheaper than in England; the Japanese have not sufficient experience of armoured ships to make a similar comparison; but he does not think it is possible to build ch aper in Japan as long as they have to import arm- our-plates from abroad.

DISCUSSION AT THE SANI- TARY BOARD.
Strictures on an Officer. The fortnightly meeting of the Sanitary Board was held yesterday afternoon, Dr J. M. Atkinson presiding. Other members present were the Hon. I'. N. Jones, Messrs H. E. Pollock, A. W Brewin, A. Rumjahn, Colonel W. E. Webb, R. A. M. C., Dr Barnett, Dr Macfarlane, Hon. Fung Wa Chun, Mr Lau Chu Pak and T. A. Hanmer (Secretary).
Dealing with correspondence relative to the drainage of Nos. 58, 60 and 62, Queen's Road Central, Mr Rumjahn appended a mi. nute deprecating the Sanitary Surveyor's inspection of drainage.
In reply to this minute the President said that he did not think it was in accordance with English practice, at all events, to make an attack of that character on an officer who was not present to defend himself, the Sanitary Surveyor being on holidays. He underwood that the drains in question were constructed of porous bricks that might easily leak. fie moved that they should be ordered to be replaced by iron pipes.
