FALSIFIED 'DANK NOTE,
Chan Ching Ping was charged on remand with forging or uttering a 310 pote, knowing the same to be forged.
Mr. H. M. Mann, cashier in the Chartered Bank, said the note was of the face value of Sto and had been altered to $50.
acquiescence of the German Government is surprisingly at variance with the previous em phatic utterances of the Kalsar, and has aroused some misgivings in the mind of those most interested in the Chinese settlement, and best able to judge of the effect of this changed attitude upon the watchful Celestial
The tea-ring over which the commercial world was inclined to be sceptical is gaining ground. Last week approximately 14,000 packages were sold at the public auction in the ordinary way and some 11,000 at the secret sales, while this week the figlires were 12,000 at the public auction, and 13,000 at the private sale. The object of the ring is to prevent retailers knowing at what price the wholesale man buy from the blenders, in order of course that a higher price may be imposed upon the struggling retailer. To induce the blenders to prefer the private, to the public sale the ring is said to be pushing up the secret prices but even so, many lenders are still shy est the ring, once firmly established, could dictate prices to them, as well ns to the retail trade, this making enhanced profit of both. Indian and Ceylon teas are at present chiefly concerned, so far as it is possi- ble for the outside public to glean details.

OUR LONDON LETTER.
(Continued from priterday.)
LONDON, 26th July, An antide which appeared in the Globe a few nights ago, indicated'a very unusual under- standing of the British aspect of the affairs in China at the present time. The fact is the English public does not even now realize the relative importance of events in the Far East, Unless something occurs to arouse a transient feeling of horror or reprobation, such as was excited over the stage of the Legations, or the brutal murder of the missionaries last year, Chinese affairs attract little attention. Hence the Globe article has done real service by pointing out the design of Russia to substitute her new railway as the means of commercial intercourse between Manchuria and the world, in place of the seaborne trade, chiefly in the hands. of Great Britain, the U. S. & Japan, The Goverment is urged by the writer to tin swervingly maintain our treaty rights at New chwang, the natural distributing point for rail- way goods and where Russia is seeking to establish a paramount influence and authority, Attention is called in the saine article to the p essure now being brought to bear upon the Southern Viceroys, to contribute from their Provinces the greater part of the yearly indemnity to be paid by China. They will only be able to raise this sum by increas

A DEFENSE OF BULL- FIGHTING.
-The bull-baiting in South Omaha, Nebr., has called out a good deal of denunciation, as was probably expected, from the pulpit and- press of the country. The South Omaha exi 15hibition, however, is only an imitation bull- fight. The governor of the State, whose name is Savage, has issued a signed statement that "there is no bull-fighting in Soutli Omaha," and the New York Tribune explains the sport 10 by saying

way in which such increase will handicap the British trader for the benefit of his rivals is clearly set forth. Finally, the Colonial Office is urged though not in so many words-tograsp the fact that though England never has a settled policy in China, the acts of Russia, not to mention other countries, all form one part of one well thought out plan, of which no individual move stands isolated and alone, to be repudiated or reversed on the application of spasmodic pressure. The article has given rise to British favourable criticism among China folk at home, but whether it will stiffen the flabby back of our diplomacy is another matter.
