Now Year Day: The news filtered into the Colony some days ago and, in view of the relative propinquity of the Straits Settle- ments and the similarity of loos! conditions, it naturally became the chief topic of discussion, transcanding in interest even the war itself. As invariably happens in such cases, Ramator with her hundred tongues added a number of embellish-. ments to the facta se now revealed to us, and, grave though these facts admittedly are, invested them with a much more alarm. ing oharacter than the official statement warrante. As a CONIS- quenes of this, much needlean on- Kiely was occasioned. It would now appear that the rising was due, not to any disfection to wards the British raj, as some had feared, but to dissatisfaction with promotions that had taken place in the 6th Light Infantry Regim- oat, formerly known as the 5th Bengals in other words, to n purely domestic cause that might bave produced similar results at anytime, and has no sinister aignificance at this moment.

Germany's Metal Famine. All the neutral countries which might send copper to Germany have to send it overees, that is where the new declaration comes in. Russin's production of copper is even smaller then Germany, and our production is very slight indeed, though at one time it was the largest of any. We are as dependant on foreign supplies as Germany, but we hold the ass." The London Times" commanta on the situation with every sign of satisfaction, remarking "The difficulty which Ger many is experiencing in obtain ing sufficient supplies of copper is illustrated by the fact that the Mansfeld copper-mines at Etale- ben, in Saxony, which have in Į recent years been in a state of in- oreasing ✨ depression, ars Dow working overtime. This comes out in protests in the Socialist | press against the under-payment. of the miners, who, it is said, are being paid only from two to three shillings for a 10-hour day.
