The King of Stam's Tour. In Any task was the intention of the King of cism, to pay a State visit to the Mouthons of Naichun Sri Tharmaraj, Patani and Phukot, leaving Bangkok on June 19. Ia the interval, says the Dangkok Timer, cholora unfortunately broken out in these | Monthous and it was found neces sary to issue a proclamation enforcing the ontogious Diseases Į Act, and the local anthorities were! instructed tu luks all monsorom to stamp out the disease. The Ministry of the Iutorior aleo, seeing that the day of the departure of his Majesty was close at hand, sent instructions to the local authorities to report daily by wire to Bangkok, and thewo roports have been continued up to dato. From these reports it is] shown that the disease has prac tically pensed and has assuried a purely endemic character. The Minister of the Interior did not, however, consider it advisable feri his Majesty to pay a visit to these States, and the King postponed his visit. On the occasion of his Majesty's visit to Trong it has been arranged for the officials, morchants and people to ask his acceptance of Tex 20,000 for the purchase of an Beroplane.
