Se veral other Brazilians joined in and a fight ensued. The police, who were called out, quietoned the dis- turbance within five minutes after several of the participants had re- ceived black-eyes."

MOMENTS OF TENSE

EXCITEMENT.

The Kowloon Y.M.C.A. sent two teams to the V.R.C. last night to try conclusions with the premier swimming Club of the Colony at water polo. They put up a very good show all round and although both teams lost, they were by no means disgraced.

The case in which five men were charged with unlawfully loading twenty gunny bags, containing 1,100 lbs. of dutiable tobacco, in Main Street, Shaukiwan at 4 s.ni. on July 27th, was continued before Mr. W. Schofield at the Central Magistracy yesterday.

In fact, Mr. Kemble said, the only offence against the lorry driver was that of switching on his lights and starting the engine; in this latter charge Mr. Kemble was quite prepared to prove that the driver was ordered to do so Even the sergeant who made the arrests said that the last of the load was packed, when he arrived, so that the lorry was ready to leave,

Mr. Kemble then questioned the lorry driver and Mr. Hamilton cross-examined, at the conclusion of which Mr. Scholfield agreed that there was no evidence to convict, and dismissed the man.
