POLLARD'S Lilliputian Open Company, are doing exceptionally well in America, and htest press criticisms to hand speak most lighly of their performances. We learn that their work has progressed and is much more finished than when they were sean there formerly. The children enter into the nonsense of the musical comedy with freshness of feeling," says one paper, "and the naivete of childhood and the evident enjoyment of the parts they play communicates itself to the audience."

NOTWITHSTANDING the exceptional difficulties which beset access to the hills beyond Gilgit; Lord Kitchener, Commander-in-Chief in india, has managed to visit both the Killik and Mon- taka passes, which lead to the Pamir region.

IN his report on the Federated Malay States for 1922, H.E. the High Commissioner says that the prospects of rubber are so good that, unless some unforessen disaster happens, the future is full of promise for those who have taken up this cultivation. The area at present under rubber (principally the Para variety) is given approximately at 16,000 ACTUS, Sugar Estates have done well, and will con- tinue to earn fair profits so long as their ma chinery and methods of treatment are kept up to date.

JACK GLENISTER, a swimmer of some lucal celebrity in New York, attempted the passage of the Whirlpool Rapids at Niagara. He no 300ner entered the water than he was hurled from side to side, buffeted about in the swiftly- flowing current, and badly battered on the rocks. A mile below the spot at which he en- tered he was taken out, when it was found that he was very badly bruised, and was bleeding in some places, but none of his bones was broken. He was delirious, and is at present a luffalo hospital, attended by physicians:

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, SATURDAY OCTOBER 3, 1903.
THE Straits Times ŝays that the rumour which | gained currency here "that the next step in the course of the Straits Settlements Govern ment to carry out the recommendations of the Straits Currency Commission is to fix the 34th ult, as the day on which a fixed ratio will br established between the Stráite dollar and the sovereign," is unfounded. When the above statement was shown, to the Colonial Trea suer of the Stralis Settlements he remarked that there was absolutely no foundation for the rumour.
Two Chinese lakongs had an excited quarrel at about 3 o'clock on Monday in Queen's Road East. One of them struck the other on the face with his fist, and his adversary drew An Indian constable intervened nis sword. and separated the celestials, who then pro ceeded to No. 2 Police Station to report the matter. The officer in charge heard their re- spective tales, and sent them out on duty, and subsequently charged them this morning, for misbehaviour in the street.

THE output of sand gold in the Hokkaido, Japan, has shown a remarkable increase of late. The production in 1890, when the existence of the gold was first discovered, was only about *613 momme, which, gradually increased and „ruse to about 3,425 #213mme in 1894. The nut
put has gone up with a bound since ryoo, in which year the gold-dust was discovered in Yes.shi and Sabuchi, and the output last year amounted to about 159,250 momme, an increase of about eight times the output in 1902. Gold is most largely produced in the provinces of Ishigari and Kilami.
A RECENT Renter's telegram announced that the present depression on the London Market was due to the critical situation or 1hr New York Exchange. It appears that the 29th ultima was a memomblé day in Wall Street, and that there has not been a dis astrous panic in the. Street has been due entirely in the conservatism and watchful- ness of some of the biggest houses, which have advanced money to shaky but responsible firmis to tide over their difficulties. The panic is the result of the frightful shrinkage in values which has taken place during summer. With die re sumption of activity in financial circles after the summer solstice has come the inevitable counting-up. When the market closed it was predicted that there would be failures on the
morrow.
WITH regard to Korea's budding navy, con sisting at present of one vessel, the Korea Re- view says that on August 1st the Minister for CAPT.

The Minister further drew Chinese war.

TO-DAY the Federated Malay' States have a revenue of $20,000,000 and an ordinary expen- diture of a little over half shat sum. They have 340 miles of excellent railway yielding a kond income; they have 2,000 miles of roads: "over a thousand miles of Telegraphs; Schools, Hospital, 'Prisons, Water Supplies to all large towns, and an administration which comprises many capable and devoted officers.

THE United States District Judge Mr. de- Haven has handed down an opinion in the matter of the application of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company for limitation of liability for damage caused by the wreck of the steam ship Rio de Janeiro outside the Golden Gate on February 22, 1901. As the vessel was a total loss there was nothing but the freight and pas sage money pending out of which to pay the claims, and the liability of the company was therefore limited to $24,817 with interest from March, 1901. In commenting upon one feature of the case, the Court said-It is manifest that the damage must be greater where the deceased left wife or child than if he only left collateral heirs. As to the claims for loss of baggage made by the administrator of the estate of Sarah W. and Naomi Wakefield and of Letitia Aldrich Wild- man the evidence as to the actual value of the baggage is not very satisfactory and the claims are grossly exaggerated.
AT the instance of inspector Kerr, a marine store dealer was charged before Mr. Sercombe Smith at the Magistracy on Monday with being in unlawful possession of 135 pounds of Manila rope, value about 356, and 55 lbs. of copper wire, value about $18, reasonably sus pected to have been stolen, or unlawfully obtained from a shop at No. 168 Reclamation Street, Yau-ma-ti, yesterday afternoon, and also with being a holder of a licence failing to enter in his book no account of the rope and wire, found in his possession.

IN an exhaustive article which M. Lockroy contributes to the Temps on the present posi tion and condition of the French navy, the ex. Minister of Marine takes a very despondent view of the situation. After pointing out what WE are in receipt of a communication from incompetence and disorganization have done Mr. J. M. G. Penino, in which this gentleman for the naval defence of his country, M. Lockroy asks that the authorities should find some sums up the situation as follows:-"At the moment when relations are strained between means of warding owners of stray dogs when these animals have been impounded by the Russia and Japan, that is to say, between Rus police, in due time to prevent their destruction. sia and England; when, tied by a previous Our casespo..dent states that, when visiting convention, we shall perhaps be called upon to the dog-compound at the Western Station last, take sides in the conflict, the Far Eastern week, he was struck by the pitiful aspect pre- squadron has been deprived of its chief.
