With an extra mid-off on gased, Buruie could not get in his favourite off-drive, whilst Doctor played watchful cricket till one of Lov's dropped on the bails. This made one for 30. Dixon had previously relieved Smith, and Major Beresford Ash had filed the vacancy, After eight moro runs, Borala was finely held at mid-off by Lowe, and retired for a steady 21, in which wo should like to have seen a greater variety of strokes. Dixon followed 'op his initial success by getting, Mackenzie (who had not practiced last wook) caught at paint said by clean bowling Major Dorohill, In the midst of this débâcle, the R.W.F. Major was showing command over the bowling.

Cox, as on many another occasion when something had to be done by someone, pinyed one of his brilliant, forcing games, and again proved that he is an indispen sable man in an XI. His coolness and plack in a tight corner need no praise in Hongkong; sud when to these qualities are added safety and dash in the field, his value to a side may be accurately ganged. By a coincidenos, the man who belped him to put a different complexion an game was Arthur, who

the shared with him the great distinction of winning the match against Shanghai in 1897 in Hongkong. Between them the two scored 87 out of the total of 177. Arthur's innings was an excellent display, and in it ho made numerous good strokes. More strength to the elbows of both these good cricketers!

An improvement was shown in the fielding; and of the only two catches milked one was duete a misunderstanding, and the other to long-field being hampered by the ropes of the screen.

The goal-kick was followed by some tricky play in middeld, which ended by the home tee having their first look in at their opponents defence, but this resulted only in a bye owing to weak shooting. Before long the Club made another good try for goal. After a splendid 'ra, Jenkins sent in a dead abot, which, however, was safely negotiated by Robinson. Play was very fast, but the shooting was erratic, and each goal was visited often without re- sult. Several times the Club looked like scoring, and they had one fine scrimmage in front of goal, ending in a fruitless cormer. Half-time arrived without any points having

At the suggestion of his Worship, an unload- od roroiver was handed to the witness, who went through the process of pulling out the weapon and pressing the trigger, in the manner alleged to have been followed by the defendant. As the result of the shot, witness said he heard a man under a verandah in Cross Street callout "Savelite." It was dark, and witness could not see the man clearly. The crowd cleared away when the shot was tired, and the defun- tant ran in westerly direction along Cross Witress Strest, towards the Clock Tower. alee went away.

At the point where the alleged shooting took place there was generally a crowd of people passing to and fro at the time of night (8.30 p..) at which the incident occurred. It was not the case that a European could not go along there at such an hour without being hnation.

He did not see defendant being jostled so that he fell to the ground. He saw him examining a hawker's license, and then the crowd gathered. When the revolver went off defendant was facing south and the muzzle of the weapon pointed west. Witness did not know whether the defendant was taking the revolver out of his poucli and putting it into his right. hand pocket. Defendant's arm was stretched out, but ho did not know whether the weapon went of accidentally. From the position in which defendant was standing, he could not see the man who was shot.

1-Shouldthemeaning of the term "debtor" in the Bankraptar Ordinance be extended so as to include, in addition to British subjecta not. only resident foreigners, but also non-resident foreigners carrying on business in the Colony either as partners with others, or by munus of a manager or agent, either in a firm barne or in their own names?

THE CHINESE TARIFF.

In accordance with the decision come to at the last meeting, a letter was addressed on the 18th September to the British Minister st Peking acknowledging receipt of his letter of the 26th August giving certain information as to duties on imports, and, referring to the signature of the Protocol, expressing a bops that there will be no delay in carrying out its terms both in the letter and the spirit.

The SECRETARY stated that, on the 30th Sept., a letter was addressed to the Chamber of Commerce calling attention to the fact that Six James Lyle Mackay, the Commissioner appointed to conduct the commercial nagetin, tions with China under the provisions of the Protocol, would probably arrive here about the middle of November, and inviting them to either express their views on the Tariff in the form of a Memorandum, to be transmitted through this Chamber, or to send a representative to meet the Commissioner with this Committee.

The SECRETARY mid that, so far, no reply

had been received to this communication

The CHAIRMAN said it would be well to write again, and the Committee concurred in this view, it being opinion that the Canton Chamber should be represented Lace when the Commissioner arrived.

The CHAIRMAN said he thought the Chamber should do something on the socasion of the arrival of the Bettiah Commissioners, though was probable they would not wish to remain in the Colony long. He might mention that Sir Ernest Satow was coming down to meet the Commissioners."

The defendant pleaded that this was the fault of his foki, who was a now man, but the evid-it exec went to show that the light was hurriedly extinguished upon the approach of the police.
