SIR-Might I ask the courtesy of your columns to express thanks, on behalf of the Committee responsible for the recent motor-cycle trial, for the very valuable assistance receiv ed from many quarters? The suc- cess of the trial was undoubtedly largely due to the co-operation re- ceived from the local oil companies, and to those members of the general public who carried out the arduous. work of observers.

Detective-Sergeant Fitches said, that at B p.m. on Monday, the In The Committee desires to place "dian was escorting a man to the on record its thanks to the Texas etation. The man, though not ac Company for the generous gift of a tually drunk, was creating & disilver cup to be competed for by turbance in the street.

After hearing the evidence, his Worship discharged the defendants, remarking that it was possible, al- though he would not say probable that the Indian had made a mis take in identity. The defendants would be given the benefit of the doubt.

A RETURNED BANISHEE.

A Chinese, who was described as a returned banished, was before the Kowloon Magistrate on a charge of stealing. He also had to answer & charge of returning from banish- ment. On the first count he was sentenced to six months' imprison! ment, while twelve months' hard! labour was imposed on the second. The sentences will run concurrently.

A SMOKE NUISANCE..

The Lee Lung Ginger Factory were defendanta in a"anoke nuisance" case before the Kowloon Magistrate yesterday.

Mr. F. H. Loseby was for the de fener, and told his Worship that n notice bad been served on his, clients, asking them to ahate the nuisance by using a better quality, of coal and by, better stoking. Not only had this notice been complied with but the management had also consulted the company's architects with a view to making further im provements, Continuing. Mr. Lose by said that the premises had been passed by the P.W.D. only a few months ago.

His Worship then adjourned the case for three weeks in order that the defendants night carry on their plans to put a stop to the *nuisance.

WASTING WATER.

When two Chinese women appear- ed before Mr. Whyte Smith yester day, on charges, of wasting water by washing clothes at street foun- tains, his Worship remarked that he saw people doing that constantly. Walking along any road, like Can son Rond for instance, his Worship.

The Committee also desires to record its keen appreciation of the excellent services rendered by ob- servers, who worked the checks dur- ing both the night and morning, and without whose assistance the trial could not have been brought to a successful conclusion. Thanks are also due to the Press, which was largely instrumental in making the event widely known...

If there are organisations or in- dividuals who assisted in the trial and who are not mentioned speci- fiendly here, I trust that they will accept the Committee's warmest thanks for their services,-Yours, etc.
