THE AWÄNOW REFORMER,

The Chief Justice and the Puiane Judge sat-to-hear the appeal against the judgment of the Puinas Judge who upheld the decision of the Magistrato in the case of Ia Kại Bhing whose extradition was sought by the Chiness Government on charge of armed robbery in Chinn. Bir Henry Berkeley, K.C.; instrusted

by Mr. Otto Kong Bing, appeared for the appellants, and the Attorney-General (Mr W, Rees Davis) instructed by Mr. Bowley, appeared for the respondents,

Bir Henry Berkeley stated that an affidavit was filed on Saturday by Mr. Hazeland, the Magistrate before whom the extradition pro- ceedings were taken, and he desired to submit - certain objections to the Court with regard to

the documents attached to that exhibit. The first was that shero was no information before the Court at the time of the hearing with regard to the steps taken from the time of the arrest

His Worship directed Inspector Collett to draw the attention of the Captain Superinten dent of Polios to the foot. In this case he would discharge the Forest Guard, and as the defendant had been before him on a proviona occasion, he would impose a fine of $5.
