 question arises whether Captain Beanclerk who, as Secretary to the Commitee, drawing a monthly salary of Rs. 1,200 from the revenues of the estates, is more responsible than these associated with him for the management of the estates, ought to continue to hold the position he has held for over a year with much profit to himself but little usefulness to the family. and I press this question most respectfully on the consideration of His Highness the Nizam.

A charge of theft of jewellery of the value of Rs. 7,50,000 brought by a Hyderabadee Nawab, against three of his relatives, before Mr. Hamilton, the second 'residency Magistrate in Bombay—forms the subject of talk here in many circles. The theft is said to have been committed 7 years ago and it remained little less than a mystery until Friday, the 17th Instant, on account of the phenomenal inactivity or incompetency of the City Police. On this date a pair of gold and silver armlets called bajoobandh together with a pair of gold ornaments called thera offered to the complainant for sale by one Muunav Khan led to a number of revelations. The complainant immediately gave information to the Residency Police and had one Kassim arrested. They with the aid of Kassim he 'traced' the theft to the accused living in Bombay. This is the story of the case and the trial of it will be watched with interest here.
