Colbert, noting master attendant, at the joint polies tourt, Colombo, on the 2nd inst, when Mr J. West a first-class passenger by the P. and O. steamer Mace donia, en route to Shanghai, was charged with having, on or about September 28, attempted to ship in the Macedonia dan. gerous goods, viz., matabes, packed in his baggere

Mr F. C. Allen, the local P and 0. #gent; Capt.-E. Bennett, commander ori the Macedonia, and Mr J. S. Bowes, super- intendent of police; wero present Mr E. R. Williams watched the interests of the company.

Asked if he pleaded guilty, or not guilty. Mr Weat replied: I must say, Sir, it was a careless act on my part and I have been sorry over since. The trunk containing! the matches naver came on board, and, Jurther more, if it had come on board, the runk, being labelled for the cabin, would not have gone down into the bold. In the

cabin it could have been got at in a moment

if the necessity arose.

Mr Colbert: You admit the offence? Mr West: "That the matches were in

the trunk, certainly. I took them out myself on the wharf at Marmoilies.

Mr. Colbort: Did you take them out before the offence was pointed out i

Mr West: No. If it had not been pointed out, they would have gone into my cabin, zot into the hold.

Mr Colbert: Did you get your passenger ticket from the P. and O. Co.1

Mr West: Yen.

Mr Colbert: Did you not notice on the

30 bond

Mr West: I know it should not be done, but when I bought the matches in London

never have done it.
