THE HONGKONG REGAITA.
BUCCESSFUL INAUGURATION,
rith inst.
The first meeting of the Hongkong Regatin Look place this afternoon and proved a great success bath from a sporting and financial point of view. The formation of this, the lates addition to local rowing organisations, bad the advantage of very strong support from the art, H.E. the Governor, not only displaying the keenest interest in the preliminaries, but himself offering for competition a valuable Challenge Cup, open to residents of Hongkong only. It was, therefore, not surprising that the initial meeting should have been fraught with all the conditions which ensure a successful outcome.
The course was nu excellent one in many respects, but for the spectators, the implacable weather of the last few days made things very uncomfortable. A cold, piercing wind blew across the Harbour and the race viewing cir cumstances were far from entrancing. The course was off, Wanchai, from the Yacht An- chorage to the end of Causeway Bay outside Kellett Island for races in Naval boats, and inside the island for the races in light boats. -The well known and comfortable Canion River boat Kwong Tung, was mooted off Kellett Committee dispensed Island, where the hospitality to large number of ladies and guests, and from which A splendid

Owing to exigencies of time we were unable to publish a complete report of the very successful Regatta on Saturday. Continuing from the Governor's Cup, the Interport Pairs produced probably the most exciting and interesting race of the day, Hongkong winning amid the greatest enthusiasm by the parroW margin of two feat. The last race, the tub sculls, was a capital exhibition of strength and endurance, Imboof winning from J. Witchell by half a length. Details:-

Glory, (by permission of Vico-Admiral Sir Gerard Noel, Captain, and Officers) played a choice selection of new and popular music. The general arrangements were in excellent hands, and everything passed off smoothly and well. The gentlemen responsible for the happy state of affairs were:---

Committee:-Ool. L. F. Brown, (Chairman), Maiers. E. W. Mitchell, A. Chapman, G. A Caldwell, F. W. Warre. C. H. Gale, H. F. Chard, (Hon. Treasurer) and E. R. Hallifax, (Hon. Secretary).
Officers: Umpires and Starters-Messrs. C. H. Grace, W. H. Patts, and Mr. Hon. Gershom Stewart.
Judger Messrs. E. W. Mitchell, Com. T. L. Shelford, R.M. and H. P. White.
A start was made punctually, with the Gig race open to N. C. O's of the Garrison. Three boats turned out, but the West Kenis secured a very easy victory. The pairs Randan Gigs produced a capital race between the three out of the fours entered, of which Musso's men landed the prize by a good two and a half lengths:
Some considerable interest was manifested in the Interport Fours, probably in view of the easy manner in which Canton disposed of Hongkong at the last annual meeting of the V.R.C. It was a capital start, but ently in the race, Canton rowing a much quicker and more defined stroke, took the lead, and at Kellett Island had an advantage of quite a length; Thence onward Hongkang improved their rowing but could not come on terms, Canton gaining the verdict somewhat ea ify by three quarters of a length.
The race for men-of-war's gigs and whalera brought out no less than eighteen boats, which was not surprising considering the imposing array of warships in the Harbour." It was a hard fought race the Glory men winning vir tually on the post.
All four crews entered turned out for the Junior Fours, but owing to the fact that no launches were allowed to follow the race a very good view could not be had from the flagship Then it until after passing Kellett Island. was bean that Barlow and his men had matters entirely their own way, and they won, slowing down by several lengths from S. Gidley. Most of the oarsmen in this race appeared quite fagged at the close.
H. E. the Governor (Sir Matthew Nathan) and party arrived shortly before the race for his Challenge Cup. The four crews entered, all turned out but the early stages of the race were net discernible for the reason mentioned. The cadets were soos out of it and the race, which eventually became a most exciting one, lay between the Garrison and the Docks, of whom the first named passed the winning post just four feet to the good.

At the conclusion of the races, the prizes were presented to the successful competitore by Mrs. F. H. May.
H. E. the Governor then said: I have been asked by Mr. May to express the great plea. sure she has had in presenting the prizes this afternoon, and I do so with confidence and conviction, because I know that Mrs. May is never more pleased than when giving pleasure to others. The origin of this new Regatta, held to-day for the first time, was my desire to. help as much as i could sport in recollection of the time when I used to enter into two, three or four races. I consulted Mr. May, as I often do, as to how this should be done, and, in view of the number of events that were already under the Victoria Regatta, we thought it best that I should give a Challenge Cup for a four- oared race later on in the season, and, by sq doing, keep up the rowing for a longer part of the year. I then enlisted the kind services of Colonel Brown, and all the gentlemen whose names are here on the programme, as menbers of the Commitee; and, owing to their zealous work in the matter, the original race developed into a regatia which has given us so much pleasure and interest to-day. We all owe our thanks to Colonel Brown and the members of the Commitee for all their work, and both rowers and spectators owe their thanks to Ge- neral Villiers-Hatton, Sir Paul Chater, Colonel Brown, Mr. J. R. M. Smith, and Mr. E. W. Mitchell, who have presented prizes to be com- I should like to express a word of peted for. thanks to Mrs. May, but as I have been speak- ing for her I must pass over that privilege and leave it to someone else.

HONGKONG AND WHAMPOA
DOCK CO., LTD.
Following is 'the' report" of the board of 'directors to the ordinary yearly meeting of shareholders, to be held at the offices of the company, Queen's Buildings, on Monday, the 20th inst, at 13 o'clock poon
Colonel L. F. Brown said I am sure the Committee, of which you have nominated me president, are pleased when you state the Re- garta which you have this day inaugurated has, on its first occasion, proved such a success. Hongkong is particularly well situated for row ing and sailing, and the large number of mem hers of the rowing clubs ad sailing clubs at Hongkong testifies to the popularity of aquatic sports in this Colony. I think it is Mr. Ruskin who says that "Peace brings forth the vices of a nation; and war brings forth the virtues of a nation." In a lesser degree. I think that sport tends to bring forth the virtues of a nation. There is no doubt that the competi tions which you have this day witnessed in the rowing boats--and also the sailing races which you saw sailed on that dirty morning of Febru ary 6th-bring forth many sterling qualities, qualities inherent in the Brilish race, and which have enabled us to gain this island, and, by God's help, we will preserve it to us for ever. I hope that this Regatta will be repeated many a day, and that the Challenge Cup your Excellency has kindly presented will be competed for with renewed vigour yaar by year. I musi now thank your Excellency for inaugurating this Regatia and for presen ting the handsome cup; the patrons and stewards for their assistance and attendance to this Regatts; and the subscribers who have come forth so nobly in ensuring success. I must also tender my best thanks to Mr. Elaflifax who has worked assiduously lo pre: paring all minor details of the Regatta; also I must thank Mr. Gale, who, by a happy in- spiration, selected this new course, which, I think, is an excellent one; and Mr. Warre and Mr. Chapman, who superintended the racing arrangements. There is no man who under stands this work better than Mr. Warre. Ils father has taught nearly all the oarsmen of England how to row, beginning at Eton, and following on at Oxford and Cambridge. The other members of the Committes I thank for the assistance they have given in the various departments, Lastly, but not least; Į must thank the ladies for gracing with their pre- sence this meeting, and Mr. May, for pre- senting the prizes, in recognition of which I hand her this. {\pplause.)

11th inst..
The ricksha coolie who was charged with assaulting with intent to rob Mr. W. J. Scully and throwing pepper in his eyes, under circum stances already reported in these columns, was placed before Mr. Kemp this morning, when evidence was given by Mr. W. A. Ward as to complainant's leaving the Hongkong Hotel on Thursday night, and driving away in a ricksha. The charge was held proved. Mr. Kemp then asked Mr. Scully how lang he was going to remain in the Colony, as he could only give the man six months' bard labour and His Wor- ship did not consider that quite sufficient to meet the offence. Mr. Scully said he would be leaving in a few days, and would not be able to appear to prosecute at the Criminal Sessions. His Worship then sald he must in that case, deal with the matter himself, and sent the accused to six months' hard fabour. Other arrests are expected to follow.

*PRICES HIGHER THAN NEED DR." Most of the public consideration in conpec- tion with the weighty business of taking over the Tanjong Pagar Dock Co., has hitherto been in connection with the price to be paid by the Colony to the shareholders for their shares Thisis directly of interest to the comparatively few shareholders, and ind rectly to the laxpayers of the Colony, who, if the concern on the new management cannot be made to pay expenses, will have to pay the difference from the general revenue of the Colony. We (Singapore Free Press) do not think there is any rosy financial future in store for the revenue from the time the Colony assumes the duties of wharfingers to all and sundry His Britannic Majesty lieges' (and numerous alien) vessels. Neither do we anticipate any great loss, unless the inevitable arbitration goes hardly against Government. In any case these considerations are not para. mount. The chief points are: Will our com- merce be better served by the Colony's wharves than they now are by the Company
Halifax and Algeria e, 1]`mile, 17 2/5, 1.12. Will the cost of handling and storing goods be less? Will the Board be able to repair 1.452/5, 2.12, 2.57 2/5 3.33 3/5 Algerine was ships more quickly and cheaply than at pre-pulled hard to give a chance to his companion.

sent? It must be remembered that the busi ness of the Board resolve itself into two main divisions-wharfingers, and docking and re- pairing. The wharves musi obviously be re- tained under the 'control of the Board, to be generally used, on the principle first come first served. We take it there can be no question of reserving any particular berth fit any parti calarvessel or line, as is done at present-when the improvements are carried out there will be little need for it, but they will not be completed for many years. But will the monopoly of the Tanjong Pagar Dock Co, as to repairs and dock. ing, to say nothing of building vesels on the most eligible site in all Singapore, be maintain. ed under Government? This is obviously a question that largely concerns the trading com. munity, for high prices for repairs and docking menn dear freights, and dear freights affect the whole of commerce of Singapore as a distribut ing centre. At present, we understand the Dock Company, doubtless in the interests of its share. holders, rigidly taboos the passage over its pre- mises of a single plate, piece of machinery, pot of paint, barel of cement or fathom of line that hasnot passed through its own atores. Notaman aboard a steamer' is allowed to go down into the dock and help in repairs to a vessel. Not dui can be taken off by the ship's own en- gineers, or those of the outside firm employed regularly by the owners to keep their vessels In trim. The closed gate shuts out all compe- tition and thus prices are kept higher than they eeed be. Docks and machine shops have to pay for coal storage. On general principles it seems difficult to justify the carrying on by Government, at the public expense and risk, of a ship-building or repairing business that. competes with private firms carrying on the same line of business. There are certain businesses' that may be carried on by gavern- menis and municipalities in the public interest -such as that of letter carrying, gas-naking, water supply. In all these matters the public' interest is best served by direct administrative control; there is no private company working for profit that could as well serve the public in 2,316,691,66 these matters, unlese they are given a mono- poly, which is apt to become a dangerous privilege, But in the repairing of ships these are several firms in Si gapore who work on a large scale and are just as competent to serve the public, and do to serve the public, with out being given any monopoly.
