SWATOW ITEMS-Our correspondent at Swatow, writing on the 8th just, says that the §Fâu Sung has been delayed there for the past twenty days, Messrs line, Matheson & Co have been imponing very large quantities. of rice and all the storage room was sunn filled. Several cargues of rice had to be stored in matsheds and hgainst the walls of the godown on Saturday night rain fell heavily and a large quantity of the grain was fainaged. The local compradone of the firm has passed the examin ation for the Second Degree, and celebrated the occasion in a-fitting manner.

When the operation is concluded the Government would, of course, have a large stock of silver on hand on which it would probably make a loss, but in order to mi nimise the loss as much as possible the silver might be sold forward as collected, reserving enough for at least the first SNATCHING IN THE STREET-A year's issue of the token coinage.

If the suggested one year. "Borin " were made the same weight as the British, florin the profit on the token coinage would be about 150%. • If a large coin were decided on as suggested by the Sub-Committee of the Singapore Chamber of Commerce in 1897, the profit would be about 100%. In either case the profit on the first year's issue, to replace the called-in dollars, would be a very handsome sum. This sum, plus the proceeds of the sale of the surplus stock of silver, would be available for the following purposes (1). To wipe out the loss on conversion (¿e. the difference between the conversion rale and the proceeds of sale of the dollars); (a) To pay one year's interest on, temporary loan; (3) To repay part, or if possible, the whole, of the loan. If the sum available was insufficient to pay off the whole loan .the balance would have to be converted into a permanent loan, the interest and charges un which would probably be about met by the prolit on subsequent issues of token currency." With a token currency, there is always the danger of quantities of false coin, being put into circulation. All the gold currency countries, however, use silver tokens of much lower intrinsic value than the value they represent, and, with the possible exception of Java, they seem to be able to keep down the manufacture, of false coin. They con- sider there is no reason why the Straits Settlements could not do the same and in this connection suggest that inquiry might be made as to whether modern metallurgical science could not devise an alloy which the coiner would find it difficult, if not impossi ble, to manufacture. Of course new cur rency notes should be distinctive, both in form and design, from the present notes,

HONGKONG REGATTA; 1902,
Although the weather the last few days has not proved propitious, not inte's can be said
against it with the conditions-favouring the Regatta of 1902. Towards the afternoon the sky, which had been threatening the whole morning, made a change for the better, and towards the latter part of the evening no better weather could be,desire.l. The Daylight, gaily dressed with bunting, proved an admirable flagship, and with her spacious decks gave ample room for the spectators to view the proceedings. In addition to the perfect arrangements. raised bamboo erection was constructed on the deck. The ladies mustered up in strong. force on both days, and received the best of attentions. The officials worked like Trojans to make his annual fixture a success, and special credit is to due to Mr. F. W White, the Hor. Sec, Mr. W. Hutton Potts, starter, Mr. Geo. P. Lammert, the timekeeper, Mr. A. Chap- man and Mr. E. W. Mitchell..
On both days, the Band of the 33rd Burma Regiment discoursed some very excel- lent music.

In our issue last evening we dwelt upon the question of the desirability of a gold I standard, or fixity of exchange, and repro- duced some of the arguments from the report of Messrs. J. Graham and F. w. Barker, who have been investigating the matter so far as the Straits Settlements and the Federated Malay States are concerned. Assuining that the change of currency, which would be simple and easily understood by the native, is adopted, the next question is to consider low such a form of currency can be brought about with the minimum A. S. WATSON & Co., of loss both to the Government and to individuals. The writers consider that the LIMITED,
cost of effecting the change depends on the number of dollars which the Government and the various denominations should be Louisiana Purchase Exhibition which will take only one boat competed for this race, viz,! would have to take up on conversion. It is clearly differentiated from each other by pla e in 104. When Commissioner Barrett almost impossible to estimate what this means of their colouring, as in the case of was at l'cking, he invited the Empress Dowager would amount to because (1) the number postage stamps.

Messrs. Graham and Darker opine that the most feasible method wou'd be the following :—
(1) On a certain date the Government, hav- ing prepared a large supply of new notes of various denominations, including notes for one florin, should issue a proclamation simult aneously all over the Colony and the F. M. S. as from another date, say five months ahead. For six months from the date of the proclamation these dollars would be received at the Treasury, at all Government offices where taxes are payable, and at such other places as may be fuùnd convenient (arrange- iments could doubtless be made with the banks), and notes in the new currency given THE LIGHTING OF MACAO by electricity in exchange at the conversion rate, which is again receiving consideration at the hands should be approximately the role of the pra; } of the Municipal Council of that city It is clamation, or very slightly over that rate. Thus, understood that the local firm of Messrs. supposing theco.version rate were 1/8, everyone bringing twelve dollars to the Treasury would Shewan, Tomes and Co. are in negotiation receive ten forins, or one pound. If the with the authorities to instal a lighting plant conversion rate were 1/6, twelve dollars would for the Portuguese colony. purchase nine florins.
