On the whole the racing was good, the handicapping, thanks to Major Parker, being faultless, and the finishes exciting. The track was in fine condition, though a trifle holding, the result of the morning's shower. The times with the exception of the Challenge Cup, were considered s'nw.

The last race produced the biggest fie'd of the day and also the best ponies. Blue Nile apparently went out to keep the pace for his stable companion – Astral--who won after a severe struggle with Coxcomb.

THE JAPANESE NAVY,

PROPOSED SQUADRON AT HONGKONG.

According to the fiji, the proposal has been renewed in naval circles to organise a squadron

to be stationed at Hongkong, in addition to the existing South China, squadron, stationed st Shanghai, The proposal was made at the Admirals' conference of last year, but it was dropped on account of the financial condition of the Government, which would not allow of the organisation of a new squadron. Japanese rade has been rapidly increasing of late with the paris south of Shanghai to Hongkong, and it is, expected that the trade in and about Annam may be largely increased as a result of the Franco-Japineis Agreement, and that this il necessitate the, dispatch of warships in that direction. This has led to the revival of the proposal referred to. An estimate for the organisation of the Hongkong squadron will be included in the Budget for the next year - Jajan Chronicle,
