How far these instructions will affect the immediate neighbourhood of Hongkong it is difficult to say having regard to the fact that, at the present time, the financial resources at Canton are dried up to such an extent that A. S. WATSON & CO., there is hardly enough money for immediate requirements. Certain is it that with the rebellion in Kwangsi and an unsettled con- dition of affairs throughout the viceroyalty, there is no prospect of the much desired reform being brought into operation for a long time yet to come. This is certainly to be deplored when one remembers that the Two Kwang Provinces have an important place on the south-eastern coast of China

SINGAPORE papers received to-day report the sudden death of Mr. Charles Walter Soeyd

tary of the Straits Settlements, and for many years Resident Councillor of Penang. Mr. Kynnersley only left for Home on April 4h, and the news of his sudden demise will come as a great shock to all his friends. The cause of death was heart-failure.

As showing the activity displayed by the Com- mercial Agent of New South Wales in the Fast, the following cablegram recently des- patched by him from Shanghai to the Minister for Agriculture, will be read with interest :—— "Tenders will be received till the 4th July for 5,000 casks of l'ostland censent for the muai- copal counci!.

There was not a large audience at the Theatre Royal last evening when the Japanese Taipeh Dramatic Company presented their first per formance in Hongkong, entitled, "The Soldierly Education." About a dozen artists completed the caste of what is evidently a most interest-

ing play judging from the frequent applause

This year, prompted by the feelings of the British Government towards its subjects, Tong Kai Fat advised the fishermen to resist the transaction on the part of the Hoklos, with a result that when he refused to pay the ringleaders then left, and an hour later returned with a mob of some eighty men with whom were the four prisoners.

A REPORT has been received by the Minister for Agriculture from Mr. Sutter, Commercial Agent in the East, stating that before leaving Hongkong he had a long conversation with the manager of the Kennedy Dairy Farm and Stables, and that apparently there was a good chance of introducing New South Wales com pressed fodder. The manager expressed a wish to have some samples sent to Hongkong for inspection. Mr. Suttor also states that Mr

John Grant, of Hongkong, would like to receive samples of anti-friction metal, with c.i.f. prices. The Commercial Agent remarks that a large amount of copper is now being used at Hong

(from 10 to 20 minutes, according to different witnesses) she sank, going down by the head. Endeavour was made to launch the boats, of which there were three, but time did not permit of their being placed in the water, owing considerably to the obstruction of the Chinese passengers, who were much panic-stricken.

The Court, having regard to the circum- stances above stated, finds as follows:

That the master was in error in shaping a course N. 30 E. from 2 miles off scrag Point, that position itself being open to doub, as Scrag Point was not very clear under the cir- cumstances of thick and dirty weather, and that there was a considerable south-east swell which might well have given cause to a set towards the land; also, no error had been obtained for the standard compass for about a month, and the steering compass was, according to the

Captain's evidence, an uncorrected one, with errors of one or two points.

That the Court sees no ground for blaming the conduct of the master, officers, and crew after the casualty, who under the circumstances

out all the indian constables available and went in pursuit. The sergeant and a few men got into a boat and managed to secure two of the prisoners. About sixty of the rioters went away over the hills, but an Indian constable caught one by theatening to shoot bim if he did not stop. Having secured him the same constable went out again and found another biding behind a rock on the hills. He also was taken to the station. The prisoners asserted that they took no part in the riot, and had gone to Tai O to buy fish and were ac cidentally mixed up in the mob. Before calling evidence Sir Henry mentioned that one of the Indian constables was struck on the head and most seriously injured. He was taken to Hospital and was lying there in a critical condition.

Evidence having been heard the men were]

to be shipped from Texas by the steamship Goldmouth, and delivered by the steamer into the buyers' storage tanks in London, the buyers undertaking to receive the oil from the steamer through their pipe lines at the dis- charging berth. When the Goldmouth arrived it was discovered that it was too big to get into the berth, and it was only after expensive dredging that it could get alongside the pipes and discharge its oily cargo.

The question was, Who was to pay for the dredging? If the sellers urged that the benth was too small for the ship, the buyers could reply that the ship was too big for the berth. Whose business was it to know the relative. sizes of the two? Could it be said that the buyers had invited the sellers to the berth, and thereby guaranteed that it could hold the ship? Or was the right view that the sellers had
