The information contained in a Reuter telegram, published elsewhere in these columns, to the effect that a convention, dealing with pending Colonial questions, is on the point of being signed by the repres

| altitude of England in a given eventuality, it is gratifying to realise that M. Delcassé and Lord Lansdowne were working to bring | about so important a result as the coming agreement. For several months past, we are informed, negotiations to regulate ali outstanding difficulties have been proceeding between the two Foreign Offices. It would seem that, thanks to the open-minded spirit in which they have been treated, the ques tions most capable of arousing complications have proved the most amenable to adjust ment, since the telegram informs us that an accord has been concluded with regard to Egypt, Morocco and Siam, which, for some time past, seemed possible causes of grave conflict between the two nations. It is just probable that the first two have served as a diplomatic balance, and it may be that the predominant interests of France in Morocco are to be recognised in return for an acknowledgment of the status quo in Egypt. It is also likely that no serious difficulties were encountered by the states men of either Power in the settlement of the Siamese question, since the respective spheres of influence were clearly defined by the treaty of 1880. Besides, quite lately, France has regulated her position towards Siam by a new treaty, which, while content-

Another pretty wedding was celebrated yes- terday forenoon, at St. Peter's Church, when Mr. Hugh S. Wynne, foreman shipwright, of the Kowloon Docks, was married to Miss Annie Maude Parker. The service was choral, and was conducted by the Rev. J. H. France, M.A., assisted by the Rev. T. Wright, B.A., in the presence of a fairly large congregation. The bride, who was given away by her step- father, Mr. W. Nicholls, was attired in a pretty dress of cream merve satin, trimmed with, chiffon and orange blossoms. She wore a diamond ring and a gold brouch, the gift of the bridegroom, and carried a beautiful bouquet. The bridesmaids were Miss Ethel Parker (sister of the bride), and Miss Anna Guy. Both were prettily dress d, and wore gold brooches, gifts of the bridegroom, and the bestman (Mr. W. Nicholson).

However, in pressing the advantages of free speech upon Korea, the Japanese representative is probably looking forward to the time when the Japanese Government will be free to enter upon the work of transforming Korean administration as Japanese administra. tion has been transformed. It will be a difficult undertaking, for the Japanese cannot be certain of the loyalty of a single Korean Minister or of the sincerity of any member of the Imperial family.

Perhaps the Japanese Go- vernment has learnt by experience, and will not on this occasion present a cut and dried plan of reform for the acceptance of Koreans, but will try first to encourage inquiry and so the seed of an educated discontent with present conditions.

SIR, ID connection with the recent cam. paign against the new Opium Farmer for his. protest against opium-pills and wine being manufactured and sold by some enterprising. firms in contravention of certain sections of the IN | Hongkong Opium Ordinance, it is rumoured that a meeting of opium-smokers was held the other day at the rooms of the Hongkong Opium Smokers Association, at which the following resolutions were submitted and. unanimously passed-

(A)"That in consequence of the unreason

ableness on the part of the present Opium Farmer in raising the price of prepared opium, thereby preventing most of our associates from enjoying it, it,is resolved that opium-pills should be introduced in substitution for opium,“

(8) "And that in view of the facts set forth above it is proposed to form a com- pany dealing exclusively, in opium-pilla and wine for the sole purpose of crush. ing the business of the present Oplum: Farmer, whose numerous regulations are. considered as a nuisance to all con cerned."

Tho meeting in said to be fully attended by almost all the Hongkang opium smokers, pre- sent, past, and future--and the Chairman was received with a guard of honour composed of a company of well-picked men, of the Opiumju King's personal guards.
