MR. JUSTICE McCARDIE

FOUND SHOT DEAD IN HIS LONDON HOUSE

Tragic Death of Famous Judge

ITHROUGH AKUTER'S AGENCY.)

London, April 23. MR. JUSTICE McCARDIE, one the most famous members of High Court Bench, known thi out the world as "The Bachelor Judge, was found shot dead at his. London house this evening.

The late Sir Henry McCardio was born in 1900 and called to the Bar in 1904. Before his promotion to the Bench in 1916 he had a large and extremely lucrative practice as a junior counsel. He was regard. ed as a sane and safe rather than

| 7.18. | a párticularly able man. His work had been mainly to prepare cuses, to have everything ready for his leader when the euit came into Court and to do just what the leader told him. As a general rule. the brilliant speech and the acitte cross-examination were not requir ed of him. It is, however, no easy task to become a leader of the Junior Bur and the work is in many ways more arduous and quite as difficult as that of the Sik.

Further information may be obtained at the Railway Offices, Kow- loon. from Messrs. Thos. Cook & Son, Lid, Hong Kong, from The Amercian Express Co., Hong Kong, or from The China Travel Service, 6. Quor's Road, Hong Kong.

Many distinguished judges have been promoted from the Junior Bar. and as rule they have been. arteady rather than outstanding men, which is just what is required. of a King's Banch, judge by the legal profession? No doubt it was expected that Sir Henry McCardie would make such a judge. Once in the Beach, however, he blossomed out, in a way that surprised every-

In most cases the specified rates are those, at present in force, but reductions are conceded by Dea mark on certain classes of goods including printed cotton. piece goods, certain unfileached cotton piece goods. certain piece goods of artificial silk mixed with cotton or wool, carpeting piece goods, etc.

An alteration is being made in the basis whereón import duties are levied on motor-cars.
