Shortages are stated to amount to approximately $1,000,000. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL, which had the first exclusive news of the matter, contains the official communication from the Bank, in which It is made clear that the losses do not in any way affect its standing.

Details of the shocking tragedy at Lok Ma' Chau Police Station were related to the Central Magistrate at a special inquiry. The graphic story of the Sergeant-In-Charge at the station, and the staff employed there, is reported in full in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

Reported increases in salaries of China coastal officers are also discussed in the OVERLAND CHINĄ MAIL, which understands that the river steamers have offered an increase of 15 per cent, whilst other shipping companies have made a revision in their scales of payment.

Authentic accounts are to hand as to the rape of Changsha at the end of July. It is now learned that foreign gunboats were rushed to the spot, thus preventing what 'might have been a terrible atrocity. As it is, it is under stood that 1,000 people were killed in the brief reign of terror. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL carries complete dispatches as to the incident
