A SUGGESTION, -To THE EDITOR OF THE "HONGMona TulecraPE."." DEAR SIR,-The near approach of the day when the remains of our beloved sovereign will be Jaid in their last resting place leads one to consider how that day should be observed here. No doubt the ceremony, in which the, Garrison; Volunteers and Freemasons are to take part. and the memorial services at the Cathedral will be of a nature quite fitting the solemn occasion, but there are other things which, in my humblé opinion, should occur to complete our mark of respect. Of course the official departments, banks and business firms will be closed, but that is not all that should be done. Permit me there) fore to suggest that it would be a graceful act if all the clubs (without exception). voluntarily closed for the whole day; that the hotels and saloons be requested to close their, bars and, billiard rooms. The Regimental Canteens, Royal Naval Canteen and Boldiers' Club should also fail within this category. In addition to this every shep and place of business in the Colony, Chinese and otherwise, should be or. E dered to be closed entirely for the transaction of business, excepting the markets, which might be allowed to open for say one hour-6 to 7 a.m. Of course it is understood that no place of amusement, incinding" native, should be tolerated.
I make the above suggestion, Mr. Editor, thinking it is but due to the memory of a good, great and beloved rufer and I sincerely trust that the powers that be will carry them out
Yours faithfully,
Hongkong, January 26th, 1901.
BOXING.
RESPECT.
TO THE EDITON OF THE "CONGKONG TALOKAT,"
Naval Depot,
Kowloon, January 26th, 1907. SIR,-In connection with the last boxing contest is the City Hall, between Joe Riley and Roger Mustoe, and with particular reference to my challenge to engage the winner, I would like to ask if you would announce in your valuable paper that so far I have not yet received any reply from Mustoe. As I went into train. ing (the expenses of which are heavy). I cannot afford to wait any longer, so I have therefore arranged with Mike Collins, who issued a similar challenge to meat at an early date. We mutually agreed not to meet until after the end of this month, owing to the lamentable death of Her Most Gracious Majesty.
Trusting that I do not trespass too much on your space and thanking you in anticipation.
I am.
Yours, &c.,
CON. SHEENAN.
CANTON NOTES.
(From Our Ogun Correspondent,)
CANTON, January 24th.
Up to twelve o'clock to-day the only flag at half-mast was the flag of the U. S. Consulate. The flag at the-British Consulate was not lower- ed because no official notice had been received. Of course every one knew that the belured queen had passed away, and it seemed a little strange that the British flag should still be flying at the top of the flag-staff.
ROBNERIKS.
It is impossible to report all the robberies that are beard of. Sometimes a dozen are! reported in twenty-four hours. The robbers generally escape with their plunder. At Weng Sha, just west of the city, some of these gentry were not so fortunate. On Tuesday last, two or three men attempted to rob a house and carry away a young girl. The master of the house -seised one of the robbers and beld: him until help arrived. He, with another of the robbers, wa secured and handed over to the Nam Hai, and to-day they are hanging in cages near the house they attempted to rob. Not often is punishment meted out so promptly.
In the city the robbers have of late been tarsing their attention to the gambling dens. Nó less that ten of these houses have been) rabbed during the last week. The way in which the robbery is affected is about the same -in every instance. A dozen or more well dressed men.enter the house to gamble and gradually take possession of all the space round the table, then suddenly seize upon the money and es- cape.
WOMEN DETAINED.
A-telegram was received a few days ago by the Customs to the effect that twenty or more: women bad left Ng Chau for Canton under suspicious circumstances. A launch was 'dis- patched to meet the boat from Ng Chau and convoy It to Canton. No satisfactory inform ation could be obtained why these women had come to the city, and the authorities, handed them over to the Kwong Sai hospital.to be de- tained there until Information can be had from Ng Chau. It is supposed that these women have been enticed away from their homes by those who wish to dispose of them for immoral purposes. Should these suspicions prove cor: rect, the women will be returned to their homes,
THE JELEBU COMPANY. MR. DUNMAN'S SPECIAL REPORT. The following is the special report of Mr. W. Dunman on the present condition of the Jelebu Mining and Trading Co. Lid, submitted to the meeting of the board of Directors on 18th
instantiem
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, SATURDAY JANUARY 26, 1901
In thickness. There are about 12,000 tons of stone in sight, enough to keep 20. head rain for la 'year. · This reaf runs through 'decom- posed granite. The drive is just above the battery level. At the battery end a winre bas been_sual_ 17′ on the reef to water leve), in order to follow the lode under the Rin Valley to pick it up on the other aids....
To fully develop this lode a shaft will have to be sunk, necessitating winding gear, pump,
Paku Lode, The existence of this reef has been known for some time'; 'and in nituated about half a mile up'siver from the battery and is now being proved. The reef is about 5 in in width and gives a very favourable appears anco.
All the reefs dip about 1 in 4 to the North and run parallel almost East and West,
There is every probability that these lodes run through the entire length of the property, and that further prospecting will bring to light many other reefs.
The quality of the ore throughout is low- grade, from 62 to 65% gross, and includes some 10% of wolfram, which, owing to its greater specific gravity, cannot be separated from the tin are. There are also arsenical pyrites and. sulphur, which, however, can be removed by roasting.
Installation, There are so head of stampa in working order. The ore is being treated by two frue vanners and six more are now being put in position, replacing a number of buddies, the whole being worked by a as H. P. engine.
A new roasting furnace has just been com- pleted.
Management. Besides Mr. Burns, the mine manager, there are a tin dresser, two miners, and an engineer. From what I have seen of the mining work, the erection and work of the Battery, and all other details, I have no hesita tion in saying that Mr Burns and his staff are thoroughly qualified to work and further develop the Company's lode property.h
Labour. At present there is no difficulty in getting Chinese, and as much as possible of the work is being done on contract. A per- manent staff of Javanese for dressing ore and surface work is being collected..
Sinkers. There are some 40 whose time is. up next month; most of these will remain on as free coolies...
Coolia "Lines. The present "building" was condemned by the Medical Officer, owing to the prevalence of beri-beri. New lines for Chinese are nearly complete. Javanest and Malays have separate bangsals. The houses for Europeans are in good order and the staff express themselves as being more comfortable than at any similar mining centre in the Penin sula
The locality is distinctly a healthy one.
It is only fair to the present mine manager! to point out that before he took charge, many serious mistakes had been made, the result of which in that Mr. Burns since taking charge has been principally engaged in effecting re- pairs and alterations and putting everything into a thoroughly sound condition.
By the end of March, the full battery of 29 head should be continuously at work' crushing say, 26 days, per month, 1,000 tons of stone, producing 17 tons of ore of 63% gross or 50% but, and it is intended to immediately order a further to Head of Stamps, bringing the Bat- tery up to 30 Head.

Australian Volunteers. Large numbers of Australians.continue to volunteer for service in South Africa in response
Kitchener's appeal for bushmen.
Russian Aggression.
The latest news to hand relative to Russian aggression in Manchuria shows that the London Timer charges the Muscovites with a gross breach of faith towards China and the Powers.
The Australian Commonwealth.
The Commonwealth - demonstrations. in. Sydney yesterday were on a magnificent scale, and a great success,
The different ceremonies were witnessed by enormous crowds, and the enthusiasm shown was almost boundless,
The populace were convulsed with military and loyal feelings at the review of over 10,000 troops.
Bouth Africa.
ann January stb.
A strong feeling exists in Capetown that the absence of arms is the only reason that prevents general rising of the Dutch population of Cape Colony.
It is a well-known fact that the enemy is kept well supplied with information concerning the movements of the British, and obtains remounts without the least difficulty in the several farming districts in which the Boers are operating.
Kitchener continues to urge upon the War Office the necessity of sending out additional Australian reinforcementa.
The defence force which the Cape Govern ment is establishing bas attracted a very large. number of recruits in the capital.
Lord Roberts and Our Late Queen.
During the interview with the Queen, Earl Roberts made a most eloquent allusion to the grand services rendered by the Australian and Canadian troops during the war.
Volunteers.
Two thousand volunteers have been enrolled in New Zealand, 640 in Adelaide, one thousand in Melbourne
Sydney people are too busy just now with the Commonwealth celebrations to trouble about enrolling volunteers, but it is expected" that fully five thousand men, will come forward.
South Africa.
Jan. ib. The home authorities have made several appointments to positions in the service in South Africa.
Sir Alfred Milner has been appointed Go-: vernor of the Transÿääl and the Orange River Colony,
Major Goold Adams has been appointed Lieutenant Governor of the Orange River Colony,

The widespread nature of the disaffection thongst the Dutch in Cape Colony may be gorged from the fact that a plot has been dis- covered which had for its purpose the destruc- tipn of the Capatown waterworks.
The farmers also defiantly refuse to sell Borses to the British authorities.
The British public is greatly delighted with Australia's promptness in again offering troops for service in South Africa.
Russia and China. Russia has publishad a note, which states that the proclaiming of the Manchurian pro- pectorate is only a temporary affair, and that the step has only been taken for military pur pases. R
Great Britain openly doubts this assertion, more especially as it is known that the harbours of Port Arthur and Talienwan are being con- siderably deepened, and that large Russian reinforcements have been ordered, to the East:
South Africa.
January toth. The rapid concentration of large bodies ol British troops in Cape Colony, and enrolment of thousands of loyalists as volunteers is great-
impressing the majority of the disaffected. Dutch.
A large number of the influential Boers in the Orange River Colony have signed and presented an appeal to De Wet and Steyn, ask- ting them to surrender, and painting out the generous character of Kitchener's terms.
The appeal affirms that the ruin which is compassing the Boer territories is being brought about by a small and obstinate min- arity who persist in keeping the field and fight- ir for a hopeless cause.
**
A brilliant victory has been scored by a force of fifteen hundred British, who completely routed eight hundred Boers under De Larey,
The Boers were entrenched in a very strong position.
Our mounted infantry pursued the retreating and demoralised enemy for fifteen miles, doing good work.
Do Larey and his men had been causing much annoyance in the Wit-watersand district,
Russia and China,
Some of the American papers are becoming armed at the proposed Russian annexation of Manchuria, considering that this will close the country to American commerce.
They suggest that the other Powers should co-operate for the purpose of preserving the. integrity of Chink.
