stock limited partnership, the provisions N. LAZARUS,

respecting which camo into eperation in Juno of the saine year.

Undor the old legislation trade- companies had no means of attaching) security to the debentures they proposed to iso; and consequently they experienced no little inconvenience in raising the neceяs- ary funds for the conduct of their business. To remedy this defect, the Law of Trusts for Second Debentures was, simultaneously with the Railway, Factory, and Mining- Mortgage Laws, promulgated in March last. In virtue of these laws, a company may on tho. ono hand nortage its property and IBAU debentures thereon, while on the other, official recognition is given the establishment of trust com- panies whose object is to engage in trust business connected with secured debentures. The total amount paid-up of The share-capital or contributions in money of a trust company must be not less than a million yen ; and its business is under the control of the competent authorlties. In the event of a company proposing to issue debentures secured on things, such issue- contract must take place according to the concluded under a trust-deed with a trust company; and a company which proposes to invite subscription in a foreign country for its debentures secured on things may, with the permission of the competent authorities, conclude acontract with a foreign company. The security on things to be attached to debentures is limited to the following;- (1) Pledge of movable property; (2) Pledge of a claim under a written instrument; (8) Mortgage on immovable property; (4) Mort- guge on vessel; (5) Mortgage on railways; (6) Mortgage on factories; (7) Mortgage on mining.

A company which proposes to invite sub- scription for its debentures may under a trust contract authorise a trustee company to make such invitation; and the trusteo company itself take up, or cause a third party to take up, the entire amount of the debentures. The security on things under a trust contract belongs to the-trustee.com- pany for the benefit of the entirè deben. ture right specified in the trust-deed, and the same company is under obligation to preserve and exercise the security for the benefit of all the debenture holders. It is belioved that the effect of the above-men- tioned law and the three mortgago laws connected with it will be very great on Account of the impetus they will give to the development of our industries.

agonising suffering of Mrs Margaret Toll, of-13, Thistle Lane, Heb burn, England, from that dreadful com- plaint, piles, and her completo cure by Bile -Beans should lead all sufferers of a like nature to the same moans of cure.

'Seven years ago' says Mrs Toll, I com menced to suffer from bleeding piles. I tried all the remedies I know, but the complaint grew worse. After enduring the pain and discomfort for many months, I was at last compelled to place myself in the doctor's hands, but he did me no good.

I was taken to the Newcastle Infirmary, where I underwent an operation, and I was sent to the Whitley Convalescent Home. I had been laid up sixteen weeks before going to the Infirmary, and we had to sell most of our goods to pay the doctor and other expenses. After leaving the Convalescent Home the dreadful-piles returned again, and I found myself again obliged to take to bed, as I could not stand and I was worn to skin and bone... »

I was next advised to try Bile Beans, and did so. By the time I had finished ono bottle I was wonderfully changed, and my friends and neighbours wero astonished to find me out of bed and about again so soon. I found the Bile Beans were clearing all traces of the piles away beautifully, and at the same time making me brighter and better in myself in every way. I continued taking Bile Beans, and gradually got rid of the troublesome piles, which wore finally banished altogether. I am now free from pain and thoroughly well, am able to work hard and with enjoyment. All this I owo to Bile Beans,'

The above sensational case, proves con- clusively that Bile Beans can cure the workt cases of stomach and internal disorder. They are equally effective for debility, billousness, constipation, piles,nervousness, anemia, female ailments, weakness, pains in the back, sleeplessness, loss of appetite, congestion of the liver, headache, flatul- ence, pimples, and skin eruptions.

The following additional evidence was given after we went to press yesterday.

W. Wall continued-On Juno 1 the first mate told me he had been talking to the oaptain about cutting a hole in the ship and letting her sink and asked me to tell the crow. Tasked him if I could get my tools from the boatswain's locker first. He said he would reo. I did not hear anything moro and did not tell anyone about it. The stream anchor weighed about 5 or 6 cwt., and was towed behind the "Travancore" into Har: lem Bay. By the captain's orders wo cut the anchor sdrift after getting into Harlem Bay.

By Captain George-The mate was a little excited when he spoke about scuttling i the ship; I cannot say whether he was drunk or sober. The first I knew about the charges against the captain and mate was when I received a summons to attend.

By Mr Wilkinson-The mate did not suggest anything for me; I told him I would not tell the crew. I don't know his object for wanting to a:uttle the ship. The boats- wain did not tell me that the mate had spoken to him about the same subject.

By the President-You know this is a very serious charge and yet you accuse the mate of wishing to commit it?

Witness-I am here to speak the truth and I'm speaking it !

The Chief Mate-What time did I toll you that? In the afternoon.

The Chief Mate-Why should I tell you? if I wanted to scuttle the ship I could do so without any noise; there are load pipes in the ship-No, you couldn't; we would hear

you.

The President stopped the discussion, M. Byrne, able seaman, said that he was on watch from midnight until 3.15 a.m, on June 1, During that time overal attempts were made to sack, none of which were successful, the wind changing, however, allowed the ship to keep on her course, When he got on deck about 7.45 a.m, on June 1 he could see the ship was too close into shore. He referred to the orders given by the second mate and said that he expect ed the order 'let go anchor. The captain ordered the men into the boats and then, when they did so, asked them if that was what they intended to do. They went back to the ship and witness saw the mato come out of the cabin with the deck log, which he tore up and threw overboard.

Do you think the captain would allow me to steer the ship through the harbour if I was drunk?-How would they know you wore drunk?

Mr G. H. Reid, Prime Minister of Australia, speaking at Toowomba (Q) on June o referred pointedly to the position in the Far East. I am glad,' he said, that there is some prospect of a peaceful settle- ment of the terrible war in the East. One lesson that we could not help learning out of the struggle between the forty millions Japanese and 100 or 200 millions of people in the Russian Empire was not only from the degree of naval power and skill, but also from the humanity which the Japanese have shown towards her enemies. The world has been astonished at Japan's conduct at

moments when her national character was strained to the utmost. One of our

It was contended on defendant's behalf that he had not submitted to the jurisdiction of the U.S.A. Court, and therefore the judg ment had no effect.

I was born of a thrifty Scotch #family. My father, a hard-working mason extravagant only in whisky. Of this he daily took a few drama: my mother was a frugal, hard-working, somewhat closefist- 2181od, saving woman. At sixteen years of age

I journeyed to Glasgow and succeeded in getting a start as an apprentice in a Clyde shipbuilding yard. My wagca, 10/- per wook, had to suffice to keep body and soul together, clothes to my back and boots to my feet. I therefore, had to select econo. |mical lodgings and as I started work at 6

The next day I told Mrs McColl I had reconsidered my decision about sharing the room and preferred paying the four shill. ings the week and having the room: entirely to myself. I bought that day a supply of Keeting's powder. Every morning I used to go to my ledgings for breakfast about 9 am. I often noticed what a peculiar warm musty taste there was in the porridge (parritch,' as Mrs McColl termed it). It never seemed to come steaming hot from the saucepan, and Mrs. McColl used at times to perform "some sleight of hand work producing it. I determined to solve the mystery. I crapt quietly in one morning and caught hor in the very act-placing my porridge under the bed clothes. I stopped taking my breakfast at the lodgings. For my dinner I occasionally bought a piece of meat and Mrs McColl cooked ir, and I used often to fetch a small snack for tea which
