LONDON, August qoth. FRANCE AND ENGLAND ON THE UPPER MEKONG.-The Part Dibais of the 29th says "The creation of a souiral zone was not in itself seductive. A direct frontier between civilised Powers involves considerably less difficulties than the Interposition of a neutralised native State in which both oeighbours cannot fall to accuse arch other of Intrigues. But it was It was to be

AN AUDITOR'S POSITION. An auditor does not discharge his duty in merely examining the books. It is bis duty to make such inquiries as will satisfy him that the books disclose the iran position of the company. These are the words of Lord Justice Lindley le giving Judgment In re The London and General Bank, and nothing short of this obligation on the part of auditors will satisfy the commercial world. But It is one thing for the law to exact this obligation from auditors and another to show how auditors are to comply with it-at the usual auditor's leo. Nothing will disclose the true position of a company but a valuation of its assets. This is an elementary floancial truth, and shareholders and auditors must reckon with it. At present there is no such tblag. The auditer finds a loan, for instance, fo the bank's books. He is told it is made against a deposit of securities, and a bondle of title deeds is shown him. How is he to form an estimate of the value of the security? The thing is impossible, but it will have to be done by the auditor or somebody

THE ZW BATTLESHIP, "PRINCE GEORGE." The Prince George Is one of the nine frat class battleships which were ordered to be buil ander the Spencer programme." The principal dimenaloge of the ship are:-Length between perpendiculars, 390 feet; breadth, extreme, 75 feet ; mean draft of water, 27 feet 6 inches ; dif- placement when fully equipped, about 15,000 tons. She will be fitted with twin screws, each of which will be driven by an independent set of engine's with three vertical cylinders and 6.000 harse-power, giving a total borte-power of 12,000 for both sets of engines, with a, working pressure in the boilers of 150 lbs. per square inch, and an air pressure in the stake-holds equal to 1 inch of water. The amount of con! usually carried 14.god tone, but the vessel bag a total stowage capacity of 2,320 tona. ammuntilon is also supplied to the guns through passages and tranks, which are all either constructed of armour or are under protec tion of armour. The advantages gained by this Brrangement over the unprotected broadaldo are obricas. The ship will be fitted with two maste, with two fighting-tops each, Each top whi carry three 3-pounder quick-firing goos, with the necessary maguslacs and equipment. Each rast will also CLTTY a platform at its head -powerful electric light. for. signalling and search. ing purposes. The Prince George will be fitted with the new 12-lach breech-loadlog, steel and wire guns, which, though much lighter than the type fitted in previous battleshlog, will surpass them in power of penetration, and la consequence of their reduced weights will enable all fittings In connection with them to be reduced in alie, rendering the whole of the machinery much lighter and easier to work; efficiency being there- by proportionately increased.—Navy Gasıttı.
