SEA YARNS:-The China Times of the 6th says that in a sudden gale on the 3rd with a heavy sea, the steamer Puchow got ashore on the south bank (of the Peiho) close by the red buoys and stuck fast, and it would be necessary to lighten her. The same paper tells the following story:-The Japanese steamer Zensho Maru arrived outside the bar on Tuesday with a number of Chinese passengers from Newchwang. On arrival, the Japanese crew refused to give them more food and water and explained to them that it was time for them to leave the ship. The Chinese thereupon made trouble, and in the fight which followed, knives were used. One Chinese passenger was seriously wounded.

MONKEY TALK:-Professor Robert L. Garner has reached Boston from the jungles of i

Africa with 200 phonograph cylinders filled

with monkey talk." He spent about two years on his last scientific expedition into Africa. He left New York in August, 1900, and in January of the following year it was feared that he had been lost, as no word had been received from him for some time, Professor Garner is a native of Virginia. About eight years ago he created a great deal of discussion by his state mants that monkeys have a language and that he had learned enough of it to be able to carry on short conversations with gorillas and chim panzees. He said he had lived in a steel cage in the jungle for ico days in 1893 and that he, then became acquainted with the monkey Language. On his retura to Africa ho took with him a phonograph and other apparatus to make a scientific study of the monkey language.

The jury, desirous of finding out whether the man was induced to turn King's evidence to get off himself, asked of the statement was made on the day of his arrest or afterwards. The charge appears not to have been made till some three days after the arrest, and His Lordship and Sir Henry Spencer Berkeley agreed that it should have been made as soon as possible. The police, in this case, refrained from doing so to see if they could make other arrests and charge several prisoners together.

He is one of those who think that there are enormous possibilities for tvare in wheat and flour between North Ame ica and China.

The Chief Justice said. he wished to point out that in his opinion a prisoner when arrested should at once he brought before the Magistrate in this instance the case was in the hands of the police for five whole days, - This should not have been the case. Ordinance No.14: of 1845, Section 16, says that it is lawful for any constable to take into custody any one, if he had good just cause to believe

that he (the prisoner) had done something. wrong. The object in taking a prisoner to the Station is in order that he may go before the Magistrate, but if the Magistrate is engaged the matter could be taken to him the next day, and not five days after, as the police has done
