The administration action which has been cenpying the attention of the Supreme Court alves January 4, and which involves a mum of from 830,000 20 81,000,000, was con- tinued before Mr W. Reen Davies, Asting Chief Justice, at the Supreme Court to-day. The plaintiff is Li Chuk Hung, ho, a administrator, sought to obtain from Li Pui Choi an account of the monies belong,, Ing to the estate of Li Kin Choi, deceased, high-had been issed by defendant in his business, and an acconcl of the profits which had hoon madu with the said monies.

Sir Henry Berkeley said that a querdian had arisen as to the right of the plaintiff to have certain evidence given by a public officer in that action with regard to state ments made to him in his official capacity The claims of privilegu had boon taken and they had been "informed of that Suet. They had also been informed that the offici taking the objection had been advised by the head of the department and that be would have his objection supported in argu. meris by the Attorney General.

Hoc. M: F. 3. Hasland---I cannot claim the right to address the court; I am simply hard watching the case. 1 advised Mr Clementi to object to it.

The Chief Justice-There are cases that where a government offieur objects ta the production of a document on the ground that it is opposed to public interest the judge will not order ita production.

Continuing, Sir Henry Berkeley said that the statement of claims alleged this defend ant's grandfather was a partner of the firm and the defence stated that the said in- dividual never was a partner in the firm. That put in issue the question as to whether he was a partner or not. He was calling Me Clementi, who was at one time in the Registrar General's department, to give evidence as to statements made to bịm by the defendant on an application by thu defendant to bu matanized as Bitiali subject, which would support the allegation
