*CONSUMERS' STRIKE."

LONDON, March 25. .. According to a detailed statement of the present situation issued by the National Employers Federation the consumers' strike which is defined as a carions world-wide psychological movement which suddenly induced millions of people in all countries largely unconsciously to refrain from buying until they could buy cheaper, is held to be largely responsible for the present slump, althogh the European inflation of currency and inability to export on account of low production is not overlocked. The report expresses the opinion that the cost of living will be reduced 66 per cent above the pre-war rate by the end of the year.

LONDON, March 24. 2: An attempted repetition of the storming of the Bastille on a somewhat naller scale pocurred in Cork last night just before the Curfew hour. In crowded streets the Southern Battalion of the Republican Army, which pro ceeded to develop an elaborately worked out scheme, formed a cordon round the prison, dismantled the telegraphs and telephones, and imperiously.com- mended the terrified people in the vicinity to lie down motionless in the rets. It then threw rope ladders over the walls to which the prisoners, in- ading those condemned to death, should by prearrangement have rashed, but the interior patrol arrangements prevented the materialisation of the cheme and the Republicans speedily decamped

The closing game of the season`in connection with the first division an the Hongkong Football League will be played on the Club ground on Easter Monday when the Wilts, the winners of the league, will play an exhibition game against an X chosen from the rest of the league, prior to the presentation of the Cup and gold medals to the winners by Mr. R. E. B. Hancock, formerly Chairman of the league. The match which starts at 4.30p.m. promise to be an excellent affair in which good, first class football will be The Wilts are to be Witnessed. congratulated on their success during their first football, season in our midst. They deserve their win having had to tackle some very tough combinations on their way to the top of the league table.

2ND DIVISION FIXTURES.

The 2nd Division fixtures for to- day are as follows:

Ollers T. St. Joseph's, St. Joseph's ground, 4.30 pm.

Punjabis v. "Carlisle," Sookumpoo ground,3 p.m.

Club Kowloon, Club ground, 3 D.El.

Of these, the Oilers v. St. Joseph's match promises to be the most in- teresting. Both teams have drawn with the R.G.A. Reserves, who are at the top of the league, and a good fussle between them is assured. In à previous encounter the St. Josep- hians scored a rather "easy win.

The other matches promise very: little excitement. "Carlisle," who are a very tough combmation in the league, should have no difficulty in disposing of the Punjabis, who while they are a sporting lot, still have a lot to learn in league football before they can aspire to Championship
