THE NAVY LEAGUE.

Members of the Hongkong branch of the Navy League, who were present at the recent annual meeting, will remember the remarks made by Mr. H. E. Pollock, K., on the visit of Mr. Wyatt, and how in the face of considerable opposition in certain Naval and Military quarters he was received by the then Governor, Sir Henry Blake. Well, Mr. Wyatt only recently arrived home from his lengthy tour in the Colonies, and by his fine, outspoken utterances appears to have shaken off much of the aforesaid distrust in his manners and methods, and to have raised the status of the Navy League high in the minds of many of its former detractors. The League is to be congratulated on its ultimate emergence from a condition in which it was liable, partly through its own HONGKONG, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 1.1905. fault, to be misunderstood, even to the verge

RICE SMUGGLED

AS SALTED TURNIPS.

At the Civil Summary Court this afternoon, 'before Mr. T. Sercombe Smith (Puisne Judge), Lan Wan Kuk, a Canton merchant, sued Tsui Kwai, a junk owner, to recover Sato damages for short delivery of cargo entrusted to him.

Mr. R. A. Harding appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Master defended.

Plaintiff, a Canton merchant, staled that on the 6th January he arranged to have the rice carried to Hongkong for seventy-five dollars. The rice was packed in one hundred Jars co- vered on the outside with basket-work each jar containing fifty catties. He put the jars on board himself when all were intact. On arrival at Hongkong, however, ninety-six of the jars were broken and 2,186 calties of rice short, meaning $1,316,675.00 a loss to him of $229.17.

The Toyo Kisen Kaisha, whose steamships, the Hongkong, America and Nippon Maru, were taken off their usual run for use with the Japanese navy, will soon be in the field again with three new, fast ocean liners. The material for the liners has been bought in Scotland. The vessels will be built at Nagasaki. It was the original intes- tion to build the liners with a speed of nine. isen knots. The Japanese Government; how- ever, wants the Toyo Kisen Kaisha to build faster boats-at least twenty-one knotters. As this additional two knots will involve consider- able expense the steamship company bas asked. for a greater subsidy than it was originally agreed to give them. This is now under con- sideration at Tokio, and as soon as it is antiled. the keels of the liners will be laid. It has not been announced whether or not the new boala will take the place of the three boats called in by the Japanese Government in the joint trans- Pacific schedule. They may run independently of the boats of the Pacific Mail and Occidental and Oriental steamship companies, or they may make a different run. Instead of running directly between here and the Orient the new Japanese liners may take in the ports of the Central and South American coasts, crossing. to the Far East from Valparaiso.

A circular from the Holy Synod to the Orthodox says that the strikes are instigat- ed by enemies at home and abroad, and led. by a criminal priest; the movement had broken out when all should have co-operated to protect the fatherland; the object of Rus sia's enemics was to produce civil war to prevent reinforcements being sent to the Manchurian army.
