Mr. Justice
reference to the tragedy at the
opening of the court, but proceed-
ed to send the bill of indictment
in the Bela Singh case to the
grand jury. The psychological
effect was more impressive than
any diatribes could have been.
The grand jury after hearing the
outlined in regard to the
shooting of Bhag Sing and Bahan
Sing in the Sikh Temple retired to
the room at the end of the ecorri-
dor in which Hopkinson was slain
and calmly deliberated the
dence against Bela Singh.

It is regarded as probable that
the grand jury will before many
idays consider an_ indictment
against Mewa Singh, and that the
man will come mp for trial at the

London, Oct. 23.—-The German

eruiser Emden has again been
sinking British steamers, this
time at a point 150 miles south-
west of Cochin, British India, ac-
cording to a report received by
the Admiralty from Colombo,
Ceylon. She has sent to the bot-
tom the British steamers Chil-
kana, Troilus, Benmohr and Clan
Grant, and the dredger Ponrabble,
bound for Tasmania. The British
steamer Exford was captured by
the Emden.

The East Indian troops in
France are accompanied by herds
of goats. These do not include
Belgium, however, which seems
to bave been the goat since the
war began.
