The original intentions of the Government was to establish the warohonso at Kowloon but it ap- pours that the majority of the wine and spirit morelants con- |.p.m. sitor this on innecossible contro, and have expressed a proference for West Point. As a matter of nctual fact, wo baliore they are strongly apposed to die removal of the privilagos which they at prosent enjoy by having their own honded warehouses close at hand, but realising that the Government is likely to be firm in its proposals they are endeavouring to make the best of the situation. From the standpoint of "the trade" there are without doubt à nimmber of disadvantages in the system which is to be advanced, but into these, we do no intend ontering. It must be for the firms concerned and the Government to come to such an arrangement as will ensure smooth working of the now machinery as far as possible under the circumstances. On the Lother hand, there should be dis- tinct galus secured in the new order, celally in tovernment | control, and, looked at frian this quarter, the change may be con- sidored wise and diserool, and 'showa "that" the Government is keenly alive to the situation and. is dotermined to make the most of the liquor rovenue.»

We beliovo wɔ and expreet in saying that not sinco the memorable year 1894, when the first epidemic of plague occurred in Hongkong, has it beon' posible to unko such a statement at the end of March. It is porhupstas manch to expect that the Colony will continue to enjoy completo imununity fortho rest of what is come to be known as "Che plagoseason” inllongkong, but wo ny at least continue to hops for it. Plagio vases have been invariably inost mumerous in the socmail quartor of the year, following upon a spoll of misty, deprossing weather, such as we` havo recantly boon experiencing. He would thoroforo be a bold man who would vonture to assert, be-` cause the Colony is been quite. fren from plague this year down to dato, that there is no reason to foar this your a recurrence of the epidemic which has been an annual visitation since the year 1895.
