parpose.. The form used was that for transferring liquor from one warehouse to another, and in the case of ships, the word "ware- house" was struck out and the word "abip" substituted. Apparently the 1. &E Office in issuing such a per- mit had done something which they had no authority to do.

Mr. Hawkins argued that under the Ordinance ships were regarded as, warehouses.

Mr. Lo replied that there was nothing to that effect in the Ordin- ance.

Mr. Lindsell agreed with Mr. Lo on this point, and suggested that the 1, and E. Office should have a special form for transference from ship to ship, and where there is an appreci- able lapse of time it would be more satisfactory to remove spirits from a ship to a warehouse and then to an- other ship.

Mr. Lo argued that as the liquor was to have been transhipped by the defendants to a firm in Singa- pore, it was possible that there had been a conspiracy between the Macao and the Singapore arms to ship spirits of wine as Chinese wine, because of the difficulties in- volved in the case of spirits of wine as "dangerous goods. His clients could quite easily have been the Innocent third party.

. Owing to the enforcement of new regulations for the examination of axport cargo by the Inland Tax! Bureau of Swatow, the exportation of native goods from that part is dropping considerably, saya a verna- cular report.

The new regulations, it is alleged, are difficult to be carried into prac- tice and are hampering the export trade.

It is said that since the enforce ment of the regulations, the great eat aufferers are the paper and Van Heutaz, (2,749) Dutch, from crockery dealers, the annual exporta- Bel-Dell, Singapore-J.C.Jtion of such goods being very large.
