·CORRESPONDENCE,
(We do not necessarily alone the opinion expressed by, Correspondents in this column.)
THE JELEBU MINING CO. To Ema or the "Hongkong Tilegrare," DEAR SIR-It is refreshing to know that there is at least one Journal fa this portion of the Far East which discusses matters of public interest in a peculiarly outspoken manner, and clearly and impartially, from information avail able, directs its numerous readers to the true position of matters. I sincerely trust that the Hongkong Telegraph will continue, as op portunities offer, to produce similar leaders as that which appeared in your issue last evening I have no desire to take up the cudgels on behalf of Mr. W. Buchanan Smith or his well known colleagues on the Board of Management, but I do think the alatures you pass upon the prospects of the Jelebu Mining & Trading Co. may without the slightest hesitation be con sidered at present premature.
I think well of the Company for more reasons than one, and under the clear facts presented to me by dishiterested and trustworthy friends, who are personally acquainted with the country and who at this moment have not the slightest knowledge of the new enterprise, I was influenced to apply for shares in the proposed mining
venture,
Jelebu is in the heart of the rich Malayan states. It abounds in hills, and the fact that that they give birth toall of the principal rivers of the tin producing country is worthy of considera tion. Near it also is the hill Perhentan Rimpun said to be for ages pas a rich deposit of tin and other metals. Tin bas been known to exlai in Jelebu in an unlimited quantity and of the best
and richest kind.
Another great advantage is that the access to Jelebu is easy and inexpensive. The output at. the mines could be very cheaply brought over to Singapore and the facilities here for working the mines etc., are much greater than that. obtainalle at Rawang, which Company's shares of $10 are to-day quoted at $90 per share.

SURVEY OF THE STATE OF PAHANG.
SOME GENERAL SUCOESTIONS.
In respect of the mineral and other lands in- cluding large area granted to, concessionaries in Pabang, the latter without provision as to their true position and boundaries, it will soon become a matter of necessity, apart from the evideni advantage to all concerned, to institute systematic surveys on which a reliable map of this locally important state may be based,,
On the last published map of the Peninsula all that appears of the internni geography of Pahang is a dubiously sinuous line of river and a few stray patches of mountain which, on the authority of the late nimable Mr. Cameron, are known to be only a rough sketch from flying surveys. Some corrections and further details may now be made from the (somewha:) more careful observations of Messrs. Chevalier, Payne, Inche Bakar and the writer-but accuracy and basis are still wanting. It is to be hoped, how-
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10, 1889.
prefernbly all or mostly of the same type. A six-inch instrument would do for onlinary work, though a larger one should be used for the main triangulation observations. Such a theodolite, fitted with a good spirit level and the special meter, might be adopted as the sole instrument telescople additions which constitute a tacheo. requisite for complete surveys by the use of the stadia, and only a good compass and a 100 ft. chain need be kept for very limited traverse work in small details The triangulation party would require a pair of good chronometers.
Office-A temporary survey office should be established either at Pekan or some central station on the order, say Kwala Samantan, to which parties would return to plot their work and compare results with each other, and where records should be kept for reference. Such a central survey office might advantageously be combined with a meteorological station at which batches of natives could be constantly, under training for service in the various surveys. For. the survey of a single concession or block, or a district, such as the valley of a single river, a few general rules might be laid down, but the final standard of execution must depend on the requisitions, first of the Government, and secondly of the owners.
Taking for instance a concession of which the boundaries are stated as four lines of latitude and
longitude at a given distance from the central reint To define this accurately all four lines should of course be measured and-marked off on
he ground, but for innciliate purposes it should be sufficient if points on all the easily accessible routes be marked where these intersect the boundary lines of the block, as the expense of cutting 40 miles or more of straight survey lines would be too great a demand on the present resources of the young country.
It may be taken for granted that main rivers and roads will be included in the general survey by the Government, so that whilst it concerns both parties to know what portions of these fall in what estates, boundary points only need be determined on them by the concession holders. Taking the sample of Punjom, the "Joh's mine being the point indicated from which the block extends 5 miles in each direction (presumably towards the cardinal points) it would be the object of the Government first to settle the position of Punjom on the map and of the concessionaries only to mark the smiles square, with as much of the interior detail as necessary for their operations.
From approximate cutimations of distance and direction we know that a large portion of the fork of the Jelai and Lipis rivers falls within and forms the main fluvial feature of this black. These three points on the northern eastern and southem
boundary lines of this concession indicating the entrance and exit of the Jelei, and the entrance of the Lipis would therefore go far to mark for the necessary.connection of other blocks main departures from which the cardinal lines could be drawn as required, and súnilarly a few more points could easily be fixed on the now open cession on its northern and western boundaries. and well trodden paths emerging from the con
limits of the concession were accurately deter Finally if four actual, points, on the rectangular mined, due H. S. E. & W., of a fixed position at the mine itself, the block should be considered sufficiently well defined for present purposes.

INCREASING FATALITY OF INIUMONIA,
Dr. Gouverneur L. Smith of New York has just given some interesting and startling facts in regard to pneumonia. Dr. Smith points out that the disease is becoming worse every year, increasing rather than decreasing both in the number of cases and the percentage of mortality. The statistics of the Pennsylvanis Hospital show that the mortality from päeumonia there advanced from 6 per cent. in 1847 to 18 per Similarly in the New York Hospital the ratio of cent. in 1867, and 31 per, ceat, in 1886 mortality from this, discase, is more than double what it was in 1878. Thirty or forty years ago it was regarded as serious, but did not excite anything like the alarm it does to-day. Dr. Smith is rather inclined to believe that the medical art instead of pro- gressing in its treatment of pneumonia has actually gone back, and holds that the old methods of treating the disease at the time it was less deadly have been abandoned for methods intore finical, but less efficacious.

THE ARCHITECTURAL USES OF ALUMINIUM. The present price of aluminium is about $8 a pound, or about one half that of silver by weight, while, as the specific gravity of aluminium is 24, while that of silver is more than ten, one can exchange a piece of silver for one of aluminium eight times as large. For many purposes this would make the cost of an article of solid aluminium no larger than that of one of brass plated with silver, while the advantage would be Z ETLAND, all on the side of the former. There are people enough who can pay for the best material to be bad, and are willing to do so, and who dislike extremely to see the basincocks in their houses turning black and yellow from corrosion and wear, or the bath tubs and pantry showing red streaks of copper through the tinning. In one of the Vanderbilt houses there is said to be a bath tub of solid silver, and we have known an

General Conception of the Problem. -Many of the Concessions of Pahang being bounded by imaginary lines draws from more or less definite paints it must naturally be a primary object to determine firstthe most important ofthese points In their true geographical position on the map
of the Malay Peninsula.
To do this a competent observer should before all things fix the conect latitude and longitude of such places as:-) The mouths of all the larger bmaches and tributaries of the Pahang river (2) The summits of certain important mountains and pass; and (3) The positions of a few villages which have been chosen as land marks.
On the fixed data ofthe above observations two plans of survey can be based :-The one having for its object a complete general ordnance and geological survey of the country, which should be the work of the Government j the other a system of independent surveys each relating to the area of an individual concession or mineral district; this for the most pait the work of the lessors.
The former would take the form of an accurate triangulation connecting and checking the combined results of all the latter,

STONE VS. IRON.
Are we going back from iron to stone? The managers of the Pennsylvania Railroad have resolved to rebuild all its bridges of short span in brick or stone, instead of iron. It is argued much of late years that iron bridges, which were that the weight of locomotives bas increased so
built with a large margin of safety, are now dangerously tried by the trains passing over them, and the expense of inspection and repair of fran bildges represents a large interest on their
cost. For these reasons the engineers on the
·road have decided that brick or stone arches, although much more expensive in the first well as safer, fa the end, instance than Iron truges, will be cheliper, as
