His Lordship said that when Mr. Barlow brought the case he had not much doubt about the matter. He thought the liquidator was perfectly justified, and was bound to bring the action, although it could not be sustained in face of the evidence of the defondant who said he had never consented, did not become a member, and never recollected paying an entrance fes. Aaccount. person becoming a member assumed liability, a cast-iron but it seemed to his Lordship that the defendant never had an intention of doing anys thing of the sort. He was quite willing to use the Club for payment of a dollar a month, but his Lordship did not find any consent on the defendant's part to do what plaintiff wanted the Court to find he did. His Lordship therefore found that the defendant was not a member, and entered judgment for him.
Witness, continuing, said there was a clause in the rules which provided for visitors, but visitors could not use the Club for more than que year. The 81eabsoription was payable whe. ther a member was in the Colony or not. Witness received two letters from defendant in the course of his applications for payment. In the first, defendant endiceed $2.45 dne, but protestai against the claim of 825, stating that he was not on the same footing as the rest of the mombers, as he had paid no sutrance fee and had no voice in the management. He looked upon himself as an associate of the Club..
Did you find among the papers of the Club this proposal form (produced) P-YAR
The form in question contained the names of the proposer and secondar of a new member, and also stated that the proposition was "sup- ported by the following members," defendant's signature being included in the list.
His Lordship asked that the second letter should be read.
Defendant informed Mr. Williams therein that if the correspondence did not at once cause regarding his (defendant's) liability to the late St. George's Club,he would immediately put the matter into the hands of the police, along with the correspondence and the solicitor's letter. This was an illegal notion, and he (the defendant) was quite equal to the little game of bluff.
The same plaintiff then proceeded against E. J. Hales to recover $12 for goods bad and received and $25 subscription; and against C, D. Small to recover 85.70 for goods had and received and $25 subscription.
After hearing the evidence in each action, his Lordship entered judgment for plaintiff.”

MANILA MERCHANTS AND THE TARIFF LAW.
The following letier, written by Messrs. Kuenzla and Streiff to the anila Chamber of Commerce, indicates somewhat the anxiety that is felt la commercial circles over the Payne Bill and Colton Tariff:
May 14th 1909, BinWe have the honor to present to you the following!
TARIFF REVISION. Referring to the Payne. Bill, of which the so-called Colton Tariff pertaining to the Philippine Customs is a part, we beg to invite the attention of the Chamber that to our knowledge the forementioned law, is to go into effect on Its passage. Whether in the meantime any change in this provision has been made we are not aware, yet hardly think so, and hence consider it urgently necessary that some action he taken by this Chamber to prevent such procedure if possible. This recom- mendation is principally made on account of the conflicting and alarming reports received through the newspapers of this city in the absence of any official balletin from the local government. Under the present wording of law any and all goods stored in bonded ware- houses and or in transit at the time the law is passed shall have to pay the now rates of duty, which, it appears, are contemplated to be very much higher than heretofore. Immaterial how. ever, what the new rates may be, sciely from a 228,829.93
point of fairness and justice to the local march. aute, giving them at least some time to adjust 1162,064.40 themselves to the new conditions, we herewith
13,546.78
19,950.00ommend that this matter be taken up through your hamber with the proper authorities at once. At all of the former Tariff Revisions A ertain period had been allowed (though at times. but a very short one) between the passage and the full enforcement of the new law, and ioas- mush as the present contemplated changes will affect the local market conditions as never here. tafore, we feel confident that the Hon. Acting Governor General and the Philippine Commis. sion will give the commercial fraternity their kind assistance if appealed to, and induce Congress to adhere to established precedents or embody in the law some other provise jointly agreed upon and recommended.

George's Club, but he did not remember defen. dant's name going up for election. It may have been put up while he was in Shanghai: Witness could not say whether he was notified of defendant's slection. A copy of the rules and articles should have been sent by the Secretary to My, Greenwood, who should alsɔ have received the balance sheet on December 31st, 1907. It would be sent to all members on that date.
What address would it be sent to P-The C. P. R. office.
Is it not anal in a register of members to have the addresses against the names? I suppose the name was so well known by the secretary that he did not bother.
But there were no addresses against any of the names; do you think he knew them all Yes, the members were fairly well known to each other:
Do you happen to know whether the committes considered these sea-going people as members or subscribers-I happened to be a member when-the-question was discussed; they were certainly looked upon as members.
Did you ever hear of the defendant objecting to become a member Never.
Is it not a fact that what really happened was that the defendant and some others refused to become menters and were told they could use the Club premises for a dollar a month Certainly not.
Do you remember ever seeing Mr. Greenwood attend a meeting No.
You were not on the committee when he was elected -I resigned in December 1906. That was before the entry in the books.
For the defence Mr. Harris denied that the defendant over becure a member of the Club, Mr. Greenwood knew a great many members, and was pressed to join, but did not do so. Then he was told by the committee that if he paid a dollar a month he could use the Club premises, in exactly the same way as club

BANKRUPTCY LAW,
From the dailies we have noticed to our great surprise that the Assembly has tabled this law 1,004,911.88 and consequently it seems that again we shall be without some measure to protect creditors as wall as debtors from fraudulent transactions in insolvency matters. Probably if all Chambers would units and spproach the Commission in a body, informing it of the urgency of such law, sufficient premre might be brought to have the Law enacted prior to the closing of the present legislature. We recommend immediate action.

In consequence, a great many of the poorer classes who have The value of ghee heretofore been able to lay this article are now unable do 80,
bo done produced last year is estimated at four millions sterling The question is, what shall to supply the people of India with either ghee made of cow's butter or an acceptable substitute made of cotton-seed oil? The use of lard or beef fat, or, for that matter, animals fat of all kinds, rules ont cleomargarine, batterine, and any form of substitute for ghee made of animal fats is out of question. But there is an opening, and a big one for the manufacture of a substitute for ghee from cotton-seed uil, or any vegetable oil that can be used for the purpose. Ghee is largely manufactured throughout India, and until the advance in price within two years generally sold in the bazaars at 25 per cent. above the cost of batter. The best ghee in the market on the west side of India is made near the mouth of the River Indus, and is distributed from Karachi. While butter is used to some extent by Indians, yet ghee is preferred by the masses of Hindus, especially in southern India. In preparing ghee butter is boiled until all the watery particles and curds have been thrown off by repeated skimmings. When the liquid is clear oil, it is poured luto a vessel to cool. When cooled it is in granulate form; and if it has been boiled and skimmed thoroughly will keep indefinitely without becoming rancid or of bad odour. Instances are on record of the pre- servation of ghee for a period of two hundred years, the ghee baring been found in desorted astles. As far back as 1876-7 ghee was shipped to the seacoast of eastern and southern Asia to the extent of 500 tons annually. In 1878-80 1,236,433 pounds were exported. India imported 406,555 pounds of ghee in 1907-8 and exported
I met with a funny adventare while in Hongkong, writes a recent visitor to a Manila paper. I was walking along the waterfront smoking cigarette to help keep the smell away-one meets with all kinds and conditions of smells in Hongkong-when a little slip of a Chinese youngster with cheeke na rosy as two ripe apples, approached and looked with a twinkis in his almond eyes and a mile that one of unsophisticated childhood. He looked to attractive that I patted him on his tiny queue and gave him a couple of looks coins I had in my pocket. I never saw a youngster rap faster than that little Chino did the moment saw those coins. He headed towards a group of other little boys and girls who were playing in the street near by, and as he ran he pounds.
