GRIEVANCES OF BRITISHERS IN INDIA.

LETTER IN THE TIMES."

-Losbos, May 22nd

The Times gives prominence to a letter. dealing with the grievances of Britishers in India, particularly regarding pay, pen- sions and conditions of service. The letter submits that, if the right type of men are to be attracted as officers, becomes more essential than ever to obtain the best class of Englishmen. It reviews the decrease in pensions during recent cars simultaneously with the shortened Sears qualifying period, refers to the reduced monetary values, and declares that the position of field officers in India is becom

Officers sick in India and invalided Home should draw full pay and staff pay for three months, as in wartime.

The officers bousing and cantonments are described as scandalous, owing to the leasing conditions, due to high costs and Government regulations.

If housing, pay, and pension conditions were not improved, the most desirable men for India would not enter the Army, as officers. Similarly, the most desirable class of lady would not become their wives under these unalluring conditions.

COTTON AND YARN MARKET.

Messrs. Polishwalla & Kotwall, cotton and yarn brokers, of Hongkong, in their report, dated May 23rd, state:-

Since our last report on the 30th ult the period under review has passed with out any special feature with slight varia tions in prices.

Inquiries from up-country, especially from Yannan have not been so encourag ing; hence 108 yarn has slightly declined; on the other hand, the demand for 184 and 20% yarn has kept on during this interval, which resulted in some pur chases both for spot and to arrive " goods at an advance in rates of $2 to $3. Owing to a sudden and heavy drop in Rupee rates, consequent upon the Bupee sterling rate having been raised to 1. ad in India, sellers here are reluctant to part with their holdings freely and at present rates, hence there has been a small turn-over during this period. - The market closes steady with an undercur rent of better feeling.
