Abstract
BY the time these notes appear in print, the facts on May 9 will be known of the eleven expeditions from France, Germany, Great Britain, Holland, Japan, and the United States which are at present scattered on the line Sumatra—Kedah—Siam—Cambodia—the Philippines. News can only be supplied here of the Japanese expedition under Prof. Sotome to Titra in Kedah, of the German expedition under Dr. Rosenberg to Khoke Bhodi in Siam, and of the two British expeditions to Alor Star in Kedah and to Pattani in Siam. In all cases it can be said that preparations are well in hand, attended so far by no serious delays or troublesome mischances.
