by the Prime Minister of Japan, the capa city of the existing arsenala is being enlarged to the utmost extent in order to meet the Russian demand for munitions and so that no cause may be found for any apprehension regarding the provision of adequate stocks for the requirements of Japan's own naval and military forces. Apart from the general sense of satisfac tion which the Japanese people derive from the prestige this support gives to the country, special gratification is experienced in military circles by, rouson of the feet that a long-cherished object has been gain ed in the enlargement of the producing capacities of the military arsenals, which it would have been very difficult to per suade any Government to sanction in time of peace. From the taxpayer's point of view also thoro is the gratifying prospect of Japan's financial credit being immerse ly improved by the payments for war material which will go to swell Japan's gold deposits in the Bank of England to an unprecedented sum. Thus, in less than ten years after the great war between Japan and Russia in Manchuria, tha wounds have been healed and a friendship of an enduring character has been formed, never, it may be hoped, to be broken again.

'JAPAN AND RUSSIA,

It is scarcely possible to cits a more strik- ing illustration of the dictum Tergord mutantor et nos mutamur in illes than that which we may find in the cordial relations now existing between Japan and Russia who ten years ago were the protagonista in a great war.

AT THE MAGISTRACY.

WHERE CHINESE CARRY ARMS.

At the Magistracy yesterday two Chinese were charged with being in un lawful passession of two revolvers and 499 rounds of ammunition. A lukong saw one of the defendants walk to the Wing Løk Street Wharf, bringing with him a trunk. The policeman searched the man and found two revolvers tied to his legs. A poking case bolonging to the second defendant was next searched and the ammunition was dis covered.

Mr. C. F. Mason appeared for the d fence, and, in regard to the revolvere, ask- ed his worship in what other place would he expect to find such a weapon on Chinese. They could not carry them in their hands as a lady carried her handbag.

Inspector Sim-They are not expected to carry them below their knees.

The first defendant acknowledged that the arins were his, and he was fined $300. The other man was fined 810.

Subsequently Sergt. Appleton executed a search warrant at defendant's room at Magistracy Buildings, and there arrested the defendant. The watch alleged to have been stolen was found under a clock in the room, and the percil case was also re covered.

Mr. P. W. Goldring, who appeared for the plaintiff, said that he had received an intimation from his friend (Mr. F.

He (Mr. Goldring) of mitted that the membership was 28, but would refer his lordship to a judgment by Mr Justice Hazeland on this point, in which it was held that a money loan asso-
