[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENTS] GENERAL NEWS.

The English Orduance Department will probably ship out during the next six months a sufficient number of the new 10-pounder guns to permit of the re-armament of Mountain Batteries in India. A large number of Maxims are also expected, as each regiment of Infantry THE in the Indian feld army is to receive two machine guns.

A rigorous criticism of the troops of nations other than Germany appeared recently in the Ostasiatische Itoyd, in the course of which

very complimentary remarks were made of our Tudian troops with their effeminata ap- pearance and lack of muscle. A Tientsin eorrespondent writes pointing out that if absurd it was at any rate amusing to read of the manseleless condition of the Indian troops, who managed so easily to pall over their Racsian and other rivals in the "tug-of- war." Probably the German writer's eye-sight was not good enough to enable him to dis- Enguish between troops and camp-Zollowers; at least it is charitable to suppose so.

DISASTROUS HOUSE COLLAPSE

AND FIRE.

About 10:45 last night house No. 34, Coch- rame Street collapsed, causing a conflagration which gutted the adjoining building. It is estimated that at least a dozen persons were buried under the ruins of the building— one of whom was a woman, another presvuably u child judging by the cries heard.

A number of Chinese passing at the time of the collapse were buried under the debris falling on to the street. Three dead and one wounded

are liven unearthed.

The cries of the unfortunates were heart rending, and the Fire Brigade men worked like Trojans to rescue the victims, but necessarily had to work slowly and carefully, as a number of bears were only supported by a stone pillar, forming an arch, under which, baried among the lighter debris, the victims were imprisoned,
