SHARE REPÓRT.
In their weekly share report dated 4th May, Messrs Vernon and Smyth stater;—
We have but little change to report, business has been modorate, and chiefly of
a cash nature, although a few time trans30- tions are reported. Baten, have ruled steady, but on the whole with a slight inclination to weakness.
Baks.-Hongkong and Shanghais havd shown some weakness, presumably on Account of the continued advance of sterling exchange, and the consequent, inducement to release China scrip and buy the London, the difference between the two rates at the moment being somewhat abnormal. Sales have been made during the week at 8885 and $860, the market cloking with sollera - at the latter rate. Nationals have ruled quieter and offers to sell at $10 have met, A lower
with no response; at time of cafe not
rate would be accepted, but
plentiful, and can make their own market to A great extent.
Marine Insurances.-Unions have ruled in demand and sales have resulted at 3770 ex
the dividend of 830, paid on the S0th ult.. At time of closing sharts could be placed at $775, and possibly "évén at a further advance. Shares however" are source and holders inclined to hold out for higher rates. China Traders' Certificates (8170). aro enquired for but none seem to be available, and until business is really put through it is difficult to give a quotation, although it is safe to say that they would command a fair premium. Cantons remain firm at 8955, but shares are scarce, and sellors demand a higher rate. The North- ern Insurances remain unchanged and without business.
Fire Insurances-Hongkong remain un- changed with sellers at 8305 and only very small sales to report, Chinas continue neglected at 888..
and
Shipping.—Hongkong, ・ Canton Macaos have found further buyers at 825 in fair lots, but close with cellers at that

AN IMPORTANT JUDGMENT,
In the Admiralty Jurisdiction of the Supreme Court this morning, before His Lordship the Chief Justice (Sir Francis Piggott) and Lieutenant C. K. McCallum (Nautical Assessor), judgment was given in the action arising out of the collision betwe-I en the Norwegian steamer "Brand""and the Japanese steamer "Daini Kotohira Maru.". Mr M. W. Slade (instructed by Mr E. 3. Orist, of Messra Wilkinson and Orist) appeared for the "Brand" and Mr E. H. Sharp, K.O., (instructed by Mr John Basings) represented the "Daini Kotohirs Maru."

ship was also to blame. There was in the case one issue off fact on which the ovi dence on the two sides was conflicting, or at least not reconcilable. The "Kotohira Maru" was blowing her whistle apparently with regularity, but whether the “Brandj" was blowing her whistle in accordance with with the regulations was contested. Owing to the view which I take of the law, in which the assessor concurs, the Court is not called upon to express an opinion on this question. I take the following facts as given by the witnesses for the "Brand." The second mate was most precise. He

From the point of view of interpretation of Article 16, and indeed seamanship the Assessor agres with this. it would lose its meaning if it were not so. then put these questions definitely to the Assessor:
(1) Was the master of the "Brand" justified in concluding that the extra loudness of the last whistle was due to the wind or from any other cause co to justify him in not complying with the Article? His answer is No. It is indeed impossible to imagine any other answer possible, for it cannot be conceived that a master of ship should make an error of judgment in euch an important matter and. not take the consequences if a collision ensues. there being excuse him.

FREIGHT CIRCULAR.
Messra Lamke and Rogge report under date of May 5-There is some slight change for the better since last reporting on the 20th ultimo, inasmuch as extensive floods Around Canton have destroyed the ricacrop, the local market for rice is sdvancing, and in consequence demand Kas sprung up for tonnage Saigon to this, resulting in fixtures up to 17 cents per, picul. At the close 17 cents is offering. Saigon to Phil.ppines, since last writing two small cargoes have been booked at 31 and 30 cents. Saigon to Vladivostock, a boat has obtained a part- cargo at 50 cents, with a filling for Hong. kong, and in a like manner another'steamer has closed for a partcargo for Yokohama or Kobe at 35 cents with filling for this port. The latter fiture, as concerns the rale, must be considered exceptional and due to the small quantity; the current rate for medium cargoes could hardly be quoted higher than 27 cents, nominal.
Bangkok has had a further fixture for natives' account at 28/21 center to this port, including downward cargo free, and again several other outsiders have arranged for berth loading under liners' torms.
Nows
has been received here, however, that cargo somehow is not as plentiful now as of laté and is not expected to be plentiful during next few weeks. It is officially notified that in consequence of bubonic plague, vessels from Hongkong and China ports are required to complete 10 days before arrival at Bangkok.
From Java there is still nothing doing. bat enquiries are looked for before very
long.
From the Yangtse ports, a few locally controlled outside boats have rocured
freights for this port and Canton on lump- sum basis equivalent to about 17/42 cand., in one instance 19 candersone is reported in have been obtained.
Newchwang to Canton, business during fortnight appears to have been restricted to the fixing of only one small cargo, the rate for which has successfully been held at 29 conte, same as last charter. High produce prices up North are curtailing operations and Amoy and Swatow keep out of the ma ket also, as far as non-linors are concerned.
Japan coal freight have experienced a sharp rise with $1.6), paid Moji or Kuchinotzu for this port, and large boats fixed, all for prompt loading. At the close the demand seems satisfied. Mororan to this port a further steamer has been done at $2, por ton. Wakamatzo to Canton bas had two fixtures at $2.25
From Pulo Laut to this port $3.00 per ton has has been paid to fill an urgent requirement for prompt loading,
Kebao to Canton, there has been business at $2.00, and Touron to Canton at about
same rate.
Hongay to Hongkong nominal about $1.30, to Swatow '81,50. A light draft steamer has been fired Hongkong to Sing..
apore, to discharge at Pulo Bräni, at $2:75.
-
On monthly terms, no business has been
reported locally.

The first sign was a dull, burning pain in the back, which became sharp and cut- *ting whenever I stooped. I also noticed that the urine was unnatural, and I was troubled with gravel,
I got worse and worse as time went on, and nothing I tried relieved me. At last I was so bad I didn't know what to do; I could hardly move without pain, and I began to fear I should never be cured.
Last Christmas my brother, a sea cap- tain, sent me three boxes of Doan's Back ache Kidney Pills as a Christmas present, and I gave the medicine a thorough trial. I felt a good deal better after I hadīfinished his gift, and I went through a course of the medicine, taking fourteen boxea in all. Now I am quite another women; I feel so much stronger and better, and there is no aign of gravel. I believe I have been cured by Doan's Pills, and I shall always, bu pleased to speak about them to others.'
Our representative visited Miss Bond on 'April 23rd, 1904 (14 years after her cure),. and was heartily welcomed: 'I am still in good health, Miss Bond declared, and I have found my cure to be lasting. I don't know what I should have done with- out Doan's Pills, and I've often spoken about them to others."

DURBAN, April 2. The priso. at Richmond in which the condemned natives, twelve ju number, have been confined, was visited this morning by a Government representative, who formally informed the men that their execution had been fixed to take place at noon.
They were warned that this decision was irrevogable, ind they were urged to prepare for their end. All the prisoners are said to have appeared indifferent to their fate. Later in the morning they were marched under a strong guard to a secluded valley a mile from the town of Richmond, where two graves, fifty lost apart, had been pro pared for the reception of their bodies.

could be noticed, a tremor.
