THE LATE FRACAS AT THE HONG KONG HOTEL-BROWN'S DEFENCE

TO THE EDITOR OF THE "HUNGkung Tverobaru,”

St-Seeing the paragraph, about my good behaviour, in your well known paper, on Monday morning; I was quite surprised to see people taking so good care of me.

What people say that I call myself a British subject is quite truth and a experience of a matter of service, for seven years and half of which,} borné a extenn character as a Britisher and a piece of Pargement which I hold in my possession from her Afajesty Navy will tell for itself,

Are those to whom this may concern, did not sec when I where insulted by a chuck and my face was spiled into by the gentleman which they all seems in taken his part, and as to say which is sayed insulted Germen and Frenchmen, that beg to differ!

rather would prefer, to belong to the lower class of people, than to a class of gentlemen, which by their acting prove evidently, that they have not a single idea what it means to be a gentleman." Besides, drag you all ways the private affairs of the said Hotel" for the public and whe authorized you to do this? I think you better should leave this to the lessees own secre tion. One of the latter-Mr. Dorabjee-gave, as saw in this morning issue of the Daily Press before the magistrate an inaccurate statement

MACÃO..

[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]

MACAO, 21st November. I have an item to acquaint you with which may be considered the latest news from here. den and prohibited, under all sorts of penalties, His Excellency the Governor has strictly forbid. the officers of the army and navy from contribu- ting to the public newspapers. Whatever may have been Senhor da Graça's motives in issuing- such an arbitrary and ill-judged proclamation, the public here consider the act as a political blander of the coarsest description.

The Independente re-appeared yesterday, and strangly condemns the policy of the Government, Considering the utter demoralisation that pre- vails in this secluded oasis of the Far East, I think, and the community of Macao think with me, that the free press has a sacred duty to perform in revealing the scandalous flaws that are to be Public Service, but in the fundamental policy of our retrograde Government. Nothing but a really free criticism can improve the tone of this degraded dependency of the crown of Portugal.

We went down at once and imme diately surmised what was up. Brown and Morton, the two men alluded to in our last Saturday's issue by "Onlooker" and "Outraged Citizen," were cooling their beda on the Boor of the sub- editorial sanctum, while they, gracefully caned their majestic forms against the massive table which adorns the room.
