COMMANDER. The Tuchun, Chan Ping-kwan, has been appointed Chief Commander to attack Guneral Lung Chai kwong. Wo are informed that various leaders who had returned to Kwangii have now been recalled to Canton.

A meeting of the Sanitary Board was held yesterday. There were present Mr. EV Carporel (President), Mr F. BE L Bowley, Mr. C. G. Alabaster, Dr Ozorio, Mr. Chan Kai Ming, the Medical Officer of Health (Mrs Galo), and the Secretary (Mr. C. M. W. Reynolds)

With regard to the correspondence rela, tive to a complaint re Ko Shing Street,

Mr. F. B. L. BOWLEY remarked that the matter had been before the Board on. many occasions since June, 1913. Many complaints had been made from time to time of the nuisance created by the pout.

try dealers, who use the streets for carry ing on their trade in defiance of the law and their neighbours' wishes No effeen tive action was taken by the Department or the Board until November, 1916, when a Committee was appointed consisting of the two Chinese members, himself and the Vice-President The Committee re ported that the entire business of sorting the poultry was conducted actually in the street, the empty crates being also stored in the street, and they recommend- ed the Government to convert a lot of Crown land near the Sailors Home into a depot for that business. The report was adopted by, the Board, who recom mended the Government to lay out the land referred to at the earliest possible date Mr Bowaly, omplained that no reply to this recommendation had been received, and that are item relating to it had been inserted in the estimates for 1917 and 1918. He recalled that on October 30th, 1917, he asked why a rote for the proposed depot was not included in the estimates for 1918, and the reply given was that it was omitted on the ground of economy. In the meantime he noticed that the Government had re-let the space opposite the Central Market for ona year. A portion of that site, he remarked, might have been used for the

used fos poultry depot. D

INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE.

The PRESIDENT said the matter was an old one and had long been befor the Board. It was aggravated at present by the fact that the street was not level, rendering scavenging difficult. He saw Mr. Perkins about it and he expected that in three months the road level would be raised. As regards the poultry market, it was decided by the Government that the matter should be held over owing to the fact that it was not urgent, De Wet Mr. Bowley remarked that he was glad to hear that there was some prospect of the improvement of that street. The matter on the agenda was brought up by the complaint of the Hongkong Electric Company, who had thres depots in that On the ground that there was not suff- Mr. Bowley moved that the coa evidence to warrant a conviction, "Government he urged to deal with the Mr. J.
