Mr. Jehkin went on to question witness with regard to the alter- ed numbers on the cheque book covers and agreed that if the num bors had been altered by the bank it would only have been necessary to alter the three last numbers. It did not strike him as neculiar that all five figures had been alter ed, neither did it strike him that A much more simple method of crossing the Agures qut instead of altering them could have been adopted.

Mr. Jonkin: You ht!!! say, that you thought that alteration was done in the Hongkong Bank? Not now, of course. I did at the time.

Safe Key Discovery. Qucalaned with regard to the safe keys, witness said Mr. Mousa had a key and he had another one, The jury expressed a desire to see the other key and this was fetched from the Treasury, the members of the jury examining both keys. They expressed the view that one of the keys had been made locally. The foreman addressed His Lord- ship, who, in turn, informed coun- sel that it was passing through the jury's mind that if one key had been made locally others might have been made at the same time.

In reply to a question from the jury Tsang said that within bis time the key of the safe in the Treasury had never been lost.
