Informed Franks Workhip that at 4.15 p.m. on Thursday, an Indian officer ou duty in the "B" Hall of the Prison happened to look at a window above and Baw four prisoners on the side of the window, which was about ten feet from an outside house. He saw a bamboo pole being pushed through the window with a parcel attached to the end.) He went towards the prisoners who then left, one of them taking the parcel back to its cell, where it was deposited.

On going to the window, the officer saw three women in the house opposite, one of whom had n bamboo pole in her hand. She was seen to withdraw it from the Prison window. When the parcel was searched, it was found to contain the tobacco.

Detective Inspector W. Shannon Intimated that the police were told by the girls'. mistress that prior to thoir registration as mui-tanis they were very obedient, but since their registration they would not take advice and could not be corrected.

His Worship remarked that in view of their ages he did not want to send them to prison, al- though it was a serious offence.

Mr. Franks said if people could pass tobacco into the Prison. could pistols or anything else.

kewise be passed in. But he was not pressing for Imprisonment, in view of the defendants' nges.

COMPANY LAW AMENDMENT

LIMIT TO BANKING.

PARTNERSHIPS

Over 130 pages of the Govern- ment Gazette are devoted to the draft of an Ordinance to con- solidate and amend the law relat- ing to Companies.

This Ordinance enacts, with effect from the first of July, 1933, the provisions of the Companies Act, 1929, so far as they are ap- plicable to local circumstances; and, to facilitate reference to text- books and cases on the Act, the corresponding section of the Act; is given in the marginal note to the various sections.

In certain sections, howover, it has been necessary to incorporate special local provisions taken from the enactments repeated by the Ordinance. Thus it has been necessary to include provision for China campanies within the limita of the China Orders in Council.

In section 331 and 332, twenty is taken as the limit for banking na well as other partnerships as was the case in section 2 of the 1911 Ordinance.

In other sections the time limit- ed for doing nets is extended to

meet local conditions.
