The Eastern Times says that the Kiangsu Provincial authorities have authorized the взис of $7,000,000 worth of bonds, the pro- ceeds of which will be used for pur- poses of reconstruction.

Chinese residents of Shanghai are complaining of the high price of rice, which was quoted around 320, but surely there should be little room for complaint, when news comes to hand from Jukao-hsien, near Nantungchow, that the grain there is being sold at $33 per picul And Jukao is one of the rice-pro- ducing centres §-- In some neigh- bouring places, the price is $35.
The Chiaotungpu is reported by the Shunpao to have requested the Waichiaopu to take up with the Japanese Government the question of Japan's cable rights in China and to demand the cancellation of Arrangements in this respect. The agreement granting Japan cable rights in China, it is said, was signed during the Manchu régime and, as a result, many of Chian's rights and privileges have been sacrificed, says the paper.
Mr. Aylmer Coates, formerly in- structor at the Peers School in Tokyo but for the last twelve years, connected with the Port Arthur Engineering University College, has resigned and is leaving for Eng- land with his wife from Yokobama on the 25th instant.
