HONGKONG AND WHAMPOA DOCK COMPANY, LIMITED.

NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS.

The Colonial troops of the Netherlands Government have waged war against the Atjehers, as the inabitants are called, almost incessantly since 1873. Sumatra is three times as large as England is area and the stoutest resistance to the Dutch has been made by the people in the north-west portion. The military operations have cost the Dutch millions of pounds sterling, and the lives of thousands of their men; while the people are as unsubdued

as ever..

History is said to repeat itself, and certain it is that many of the incidents and methods of the war in Sumatra find their counterpart in the South African campaign of the present time,

expeditions against some village composed of such floating houses, but the report of their coming would precede them, and when they reached the spot they would find the village conspicous by its absence as the expression coen--the villagers having drifted their dwell ings off to another quarter, and scattered in some swamp.

The thickly-wooded hills and jungle swamps of the country lent themselves readily to guerilla warfare.

That the war is not yet over may be gathered from the fact that the month of January last saw an expedition preparing which would "bring the entire country under the domain of the Dutch," as the repart puts it, but so many previous expeditions have been sent out with the same object and failed that the writer of the statement should have added "perhaps.".

It is pretty safe to take forty millions sterling as the cost, as it is certainly not less, and probe ably very much more. When it is borne in mind that the population of the Netherlands is about five millions, or, roughly, the same as the population of London, the relative import ance of these figures becomes more marked.

ATJEH AND ITS PEOPLE. Atsjin, or Atjeh, is the part of Sumatra which. we call Achin, and before 1873 it was an in- dependent Malay state, ruled over by a Sultan, whose seat was at Atsjin, a town of 36,000 in-120, habitants in the north-west of the island.

Before the war began the Sultan lived in truly Oriental splendour, having no fewer than 1,000 tame elephants in his stable and 200 vessels in his fleet ; but that is all changed nów -fleet and elephants are no more.

THE SUZERAINTY AGAIN. About the year 1870 another Sultan was ruling, who (like ex-President Kruger) would not recognise the suzerainty of the Netherland- | ders, and who disregarded the terme of the

treaty his predecessor had agreed to, as to discountenancing slavery and piracy. He even went a step further, for he became, himself gulity of both these crimes.

While the Governor-General for the Dutch Indies was endeavouring to come to terms with him, to which be represented he was will ing, he was secretly preparing for war, and gathering arms and ammunition; and, further, he was seeking assistance from foreign Powers. (Surely Dom Paul took this Sultan as, his [-model {), “

That at least, is the official reason given by, the Dutch for the declaration of war by the Governor-General on March 26, 1873, against Ala ed-din Mansoer-sjacb, the ruling Sultan,

"Allowing a margin for contingencies my estimate therefore is that the rails should reach Lake Victoria about October 1901, the earth work should be completed about March 1902, and the American viaducts a very few months

later.

With work everywhere in progress it is extremely difficult to form any reliable estimate of what the cost of completing and equipping the line will be, and the following figures are merely offered as the best rough approximate estimate that I can make :-The total amounts to £5,206,000, of which estimate that about £4,000,000, will be spent after March 31,1902.
