What is described by the Times of India as "one of the most exciting incidents in the police history of Western India" occuffed near Dholera, on Friday, March the 8th. A big dacoity had been committed, and as the robbers were endeavouring to get back to Kathiawat they were met by a party of armed police. The dacoits were Minnar, and, seeing themselves cut off, at once attacked. An encounter ensued which lasted for some considerable time, the proving victorious. The police were left beln./ with bibs, but without straps; for duty only.

On Monday night he was joined by Mr. Lambert, district superintendent of Ahmedabad, and the tracking continued police All night and all nex day, until Wadhwan was reached. There, on Wednesday, Mr. Bouzer, superintendent of the Kathiawar agency police, and some of his men joined the party. The Mianas moved rapidly, and it was still possible to overtake them. At last, on Thurs. day afternoon, the police came up with their camp, but the men had got away. The women were, however, captured, and some of the stolen was found, along with two of the police sites. Every one was pretty well done up by that time, having pressed on, night and dough the dreariest country. Still it was determined that she actual culprits should be taken. A fresh start was tende, and the road taken on to Wankuncer, and there the Stianas were run to earth. A number of arrests were made, and more of the stolen property recovered. The gang had been tracked persistently for nearly two hundred miles)

So much has been said of the wealth of the Kiamil Boy, by discouraging intrigues in favour/ AUSTRIAN LLOYD'S STEAM NAVIGA lale Duke of Westminster that certain people have waxed quite angry over the discovery that in his best days his realisable possessions never exceeded a million and a half. The will is indeed a surprise, the whole of the estate hay- ing been entered at £594,220. The executrix and his solictor, Mr. H. T. Boodle. To his son, and executors are his widow and Lord Cobham Lord Arthur Hugh Grosvenor, is left the furni ture and pictures at his Scottish lodges. The trustees of the National Gallery are bequeathed the painting "Calais Gate," by Hogarth, All the advowsons and rights of presentation are devised to the trustees of the resettlement of the family estates made May 2nd, 1874. The effects at Eaton Hall, Grosvenor House, and Halkyn Castle devolve as heirlooms with the settled estates. Charges are made on the Grosvenor estale south of Piccadilly and Knightsbridge Road to make up the marriage portions of his children respectively to the following amounts Lady Ormonde, £35,000; Lady Chesham. £35,000; Lards Arthur, Henry and Gerald Grosvenor, £50,ood each. His two sons of his second marriage receive £50,000 each and their sisters £40,000 each. Princess Adolphus of Teck having received £75,000 as her inarriage portion, no further provision is made for her. Other members of the family receive life annuities ranging from £3,000 to £500;

; and the duke's secretaries and servants are remembered with annuities from £400 to £50. All his servants of five years service receive each one year's wages. The duke devised all his own real estate in trust for sale, and bequeathed the reciduary of his personal estate to the duchess absolutely.

A DEAD-HOUSE FOR A HOME.

REQUEST BY LORD ROBERTS' TRUMPETER.

- James Power, late of the Royal Artillery who served as trumpeter to Lord Roberts on the field of Kandahar and was wounded in the leg while engaged on that duty, lately forwarded to the military authorities a petition of more than ordinary interest at the present juncture. Power's wound disabled bim and he was event- ually pensioned in consequence. He is row one of the pensioners in Chunar. His petition stated that he was living in a cutcha mud hut, but, as his means were insufficient to epable him to rent better accommodation, but, as the old dead-house

was vacant, he begged to be allowed

the favour of occupying it. He had approached the Collector about it, and that functionary had referred encouragingly to the military autho rities; so to the General Officer commanding tize Allahabad District be appealed that kind consideration may be given to a hard case hotise." It is gratifying

and permission granted to occupy the dead be able to state that Trumpeter Power's humble petition 'met. with a favourable reception and that he is now happy possession of the dead house in the old fort of Chunar.

Says a writer in Harper's Magazine A German merchant established for many years in Hongkong said to me, only a few hours ago:" am a German, and I love my country yet I cannot conceive of a greater calamity to Germans in China that than Hongkong should become the property of Germany, Under the English flag have personal liberty equal to that of any Englishman, If the German Bag should wave here to-morrow, I should move away." This is pretty strong language for a German to use at this time, but it is language worth repeating, far it represents the altitude of the typical German merchant abroad. as distinguished from the German in the pay of the Government, Another German fellows passenger was a technical electrical engineer. going to Kiau-chau as the representative of great Berlin house. He had with him, as nominal travelling companion, a retired Prussian army officer, He was, seeking con- cessions from the German authorities in China, and the ex-officer was taken along as a social partner merely, in order to get access to those in power. I learned soon that he represented, besides, not merely an American, but likewise electrical concerns in Parris and St. Petersburg. The explaination he gave me was significant of the manner in which the common sense of business men defeats the jingoism of military monarchs. "You see," said he, "our Govern ments spend their time in making us hate one another and prepare for war. This sort of thing is bad for trade. Now, my electrical concern in Berlin is part of one in America, France, and Russia. Suppose the Russian THE Company's Steamship Government calls for bide for electric machinery: we know they will give it only to Russian subjects. Very good. Our Russian house bids for it. It is successful. It is working with our capital and machinery." It merely puts a Russian stamp on a German or American machine, and the Goverment advertise it as a triumph for Russian in dustry. Some things are made better in Ame rica, some things better in Germany, We have a perfect understanding on this subject, and compensate cone another, in a variety of ways.
