SOME idea of the rapidly developing commerce of Vancouver may be formed from the single item of tea. From Liverpool to Hongkong via Quebec and Vancouver is 11,548 miles; from Liverpool to Hongkong in New York and San Francisco is 12,753-1,205 miles in favor of the northern (Vancouver) route from Liverpool to Yokohama via Quebec and Vancouver is 9,946 miles; via New York and San Francisco, 17,151 miles-1,205 miles in favor of the northern route. Now, is the lea-trade, in the sale of the first new teas, a start of a few hours makes a great differ- ence; therefore it is quite certain that Great Britain and the countries supplied through her will transport all the first choice teas of both China and Japan ibrough Vancouver, and as Vancouver is nearer to New York by i 9 miles than San Francisco, and by 73 miles nearer than Portland, Or, which has no trans-Pacific steamers, and as she is nearer to Posten by 275 miles than San Francisco is-not to mention the $16 miles she saves by sea-the natural channel for the first teas to reach New York and Boston, and the places supplied through them, is the Vancouver route. Last year 15,000,000 pounds were conveyed to the United States by this route, and only 6,000,000 pounds to all other destina tions When slower-moving Great Britain awakes, as the United States began to last year, this trade will assume gigantic proportions.

Plaintiff's brother said he was arrested by the defendant at the same time as the plaintiff. They both had their queues pulled. When going to the cell defendant struck plaintiff four or five times.

Cross examined-I was charged with having illicit opium in my possession. I was dis charged.

Dr. Eitel, H. M. Inspector of Schools, said that he had known the plaintiff for about twenty years. He had been a "deacon in the Lordon Mission church, and was one of the best native school masters in the Colony. He had not suffered in witness's estimation, but he could not recommend him for any high post after his public disgrace Witness thought of him as a Chisest lecturer for Berlin, but after this he could not recommend him.

Mr. Mossop, rezerving his remarks, then called The defendant, David Miller, who said-At 7.30 p.m. on the 11th July I searched the plain-

Cross-examined--An excise officer and the informer went into the hoose first, and 1 followed. We were stopped at the second landing by the plaintiff, who was very angry. After the warrant had been explained to him he still blocked the way, and kept talking in Chinese. I have been in the Police forca eleven years. I have been accused once before of assaulting a native.

Sergeant Mann stated that on the 12th July he was on duty in the charge room. At 1 am. the plaintiff came up with his wife. She was in a chair, and was carried in. She said she had been assaulted by the defendant, and was marked. He sent both of them to Hospital, Plaintiff said he did not want toʻgo as the assault on him was nothing. He said he had complained of it to the Inspector, earlier that evening. Witness sent a constable with them to the Hospital, and he brought back a certificate there was nothing the matter with the woman.

Mr. Mossop thought not-it was the usual' way to take Chinese prisoners to the Station.

Mr. Wilkinson, for the plaintiff, submitted that all three points-assault, malicious arrest, His lordship, in giving judgment, said there and falso imprisonment had been proved. was no doubt that on the night of the rath July the defendant, with four, excise officers and an informer, went to the plaintiff's house with a the second floor, where the plaintiff atopped them, as he was perfectly entitled to do, and asked search warrant, to look for opium. They got to

them what they wanted. Plaintiff's story was that there and then he was struck once or twice before the defendant produced bla warrant, which, of course, he ought to have done in the first place. On the other hand the defendant and all his witnesses said that on being called upon the warrant was shown and translated by one of the excise officers. It was a case of evidence against evidence, but he had come to the conclusion that the warrant was produced at the outset. Plaintiff's nephew had stated that early in: the proceedings he remarked that the men had come to look for opium, which he tried to explain by saying that he knew the men, but the probability was that he had heard the wak» rant read. His lordship therefore held that the The plaintiff had also stated that the defendant pushed his wife down for us reason at all, and injured her. That story, his lordship regretted to say, be could not belleve; he could not help thinking that the woman was "got up" and taken to the Police Station to appear ill, when she was not ill at all. The party, however, got to the cock-loft, where, according to the defend- ant's evidence, which seemed very probable, the plaintiff continued to make a noise. His lord- ship could quite understand that the plaintiff was a schoolmaster, and had got it into his head that because he was connected with the Govern lordship had bad experience of similar cases-it meat he was not subject to police visits. His was a common belief, even among the humbler Chineas. Anyhow the police found the opium, and then the plaintiff appeared to have lost his head and temper, and made a great disturbance, shouting out "Ta" and without doubt the constable had good grounds for arresting him for inciting others to help him. So the case of malicious prosecution fell to the ground. With regard to the taking up to the Station, bis lord- ship did not think that - unnecessary violence had been used, or that t mere taking hold of bis queue could be called an assault. After being charged at the Station he was locked up, and it had been shown that no assault was committed then, so that part of the case also failed, Judg. ment must therefore be given for the defendant, with custs:

I saw the plaintiff and two men and two women in the room. They rushed at me and stopped me and the excise officers. I shewed them the warrant, and asked one of the excise officers to explain it in Chinese. Plaintiff still made a
