GAP ROCK LIGHTROUSE
WRECKED.
Captain J. T. Parfitt, R.N.R., of the P. & O. mil steamer Clyda, nived this morning, about ten o'clock, and reports that shortly before 6 am, when nearing Gap Rock lighthouse, he noticed that the light did not appear to be working properly, but was going through a series of erratic movements by no mexna in accordance with the authorised programme. As the vessel passed the light house, and as daylight dawned, be made out signals of distress on the flagstad at the rock"wanting immediate assistance." He stopped bis ship at once and lowered a boat, with the ship's doctor and one of the officers, to see what was wrong. On landing, which was effected without much difficulty, the light-keepere told the Clyde men that the typhoon of Sunday and Monday had almost totally wrecked the building on the Gap Rock; the machinery of the light was disable', and no light at all could be worked on Monday night, while Tuesday and last night's illumination was only a makethift strangement very far from perfect; the fresh water tank was ful of brine, the provisions were ruined, the telegraph wire broken down, and the whole place was in a state of "ple.” ★ The Clyde was therefore requested to proceed at once, at full speed, to Hongkong, taking an official report to the farbour-Master. This was accordingly done, and relief daly sent per Governmest stermer Fame.
THE "TETARTOS" COOLIE RACKET.
There is nothing certain but the scythe of the Grim Reaper-and one or two other interesting little items which nerd not be enumerated. We have no doubt that Senhor Benavides, accredited agent in the Far Fast for the Companhia Metropollians of Brazil, in arranging a cooila traffic between Ching and the Brill, rejoiced exceedingly after his lucky escape in the Hongkong Supreme Court in connection with the notorious Telartot case, and removed himself and his belongings to Macao, away from what might have proved an Incon. venient British jurisdiction, But it appears that even in ancient and worm-eaten Macao, with its
crowd of hungry official cormorants always ready to avail themselves of a golden opportunity, the Brazilian delegate's mission has not been free from troubles and difficulties. We should have been surprised if it had knowing Macao officialdom as we know it.
Of course the special jury who decided the Triartes business bave long since recognised the uiter ridiculousness of the verdict they returned in one of the very clearest cases -ever tried in a Hongkong court of law! If they have not, it says very litle for their mental grasp of a very simple matter of business. That the Rings fra coolle traffic were placed on board the ship could not be dented, and the only defence was a technical absurdity, backed up by, at least in one instance, gross and deliberate perjury. However, be all that as It may, the Telartos was allowed to leave Hongkong, and after being fitted out somewhere in proper gear to accommodate her eargo of coolles from Macan, every trouble was supposed to have vanished. Our latest advices from the Holy Clly tell a different tale.

In the House of Commons last night the debate on Mr. Bayley's motion was resumed.
Sir George Chesney opposed the appointment of a Royal Commission as futile, and said that the people of Indie preferred to have English rulers to men who were often hostile, and to- stanced the late Bombay iets. Sir George con- demped the self-seeking policy of the National Congress.
Sir William Wedderburn supported the mo tion, and ascribed the present situaties in India to the exclusion of natives from all share in the government of the country,
Sir Charles Dilke sald that the Royal Com- misslon_asked for would tend to weaken the Indian Government. He favoured the abolition of the Legislative Councils.
Sir Andrew Scoble opposed the sppointment of the Royal Commiulen.
Mr. Russell, Under Secretary for India, regretted the withdrawal by Sir Henry Norman which he said was purely on personal grounds. of his acceptance of the Viceroyalty of India, The Government, he said favated the separation of civil and judicial functions and the creation of a Council of State, which would constitute an absolute check on the lavish tendencies of the
Secretary of State.
Sir W. V. Harcourt promised that any of Mt. Dadabbat Naumoji's specific grievances should be

The subject then dropped and the Indian Budget was adopted.
Mr. Russell in presenting the Indian Budget to the Hante el Commons said he believed there was a distinct advance in the moral condition and prosperity of the people of India. The Government of India, he said, desired a strong, orderly and progressive rule, and to blend different races and faiths into one basmonlaus whele, and raise the people in the moral, intellectual and social scale of nations,
