last meeting, I would to ask your Excellency to appoint a commission to inquire into the whole atter, which would, no doubt, also throw some light on the blockade question, but its chief object should to be ascertain if the smuggling that goes on, which cannot be prevented, is attended with acts of criminal violence within the jurisdiction of this Government, which we have the power to control. The resolution is to the effect that in the opinion of this Council it is desirable that a commission should be appointed by His Excellency the Administrator to enquire into all the circumstances attending the smuggling of opium and other goods from this Colony to the mainland of China, and to make a report there upon to 'llis Excellency; the commission to be empowered to take evidence from Colonial Officers and from such other qualified persons as may be willing to appear before it."

suggest that the Dill be referred to a special committee.

Mr.Johnson said a special committee had sat on the Bill, every form of procedure suggested had been considered, and the Committee came to the conclusion that the provisions with regard to compensation were ample. The Hill had been altered more than once, and now they were asked to go back to their original proposal.

was proper.

Mr. O'Malley sald he agreed with some of the observations of the Chief Justice with reference to the tribunal to arbritrate in cases in which land was taken otherwise than by agreement, and in the face of the objections which had been stated, he did not think the provisions in the Bill for the constitution of that tribunal were altogether satisfactory. Reference was made to the tabunal in a great number of sections in the Bill, but the sections constituting the tribunal and providing for its action were contained in very few sections, and he would suggest to the Council that it would be a convenient way of dealing with the objections of the Chief Justice if it were understood by the hon. member who had charge of the Bill that when the Council went into cominittee he would be prepar- ed to introduce half a dozen sections in place of the present ones providing a tribunal not open to the objections of the Chief Justice. In regard to the objection that there were sections adopted from the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act which were not necessary and not applicable to this colony, he thought it would be very possible and not inconvenient to deal with these while the Bill was in Committee. In cases where the Committee was satisfied a section was not applicable here, it might be struck out, and where its application was doubtful it might be allowed to stand. With respect to the omission of clausce which ought to be included, no doubt it would occur in the course of the Committee to hon. members to point, gut some clauses it was necessary to insert. He would point out that a Bill substantially cor responding to this and

Sir George Phillippo said that according to the Bill, in cases where the compensation would be. under $1,000 there was an appeal to the Full Court, but in cases above that amount there was no appeal. He considered that was very arbitrary. In cases of arbitration the practice was for each party to select an arbitrator, bur by the present Bill the Legislature was to appoint special persons as arbitrators without giving either side the opportunity of appealing. They Mr. Russell-I have much pleasure in second- were bound to take the award without any op ing the motion. I think it is absolutely neces.portunity of appealing. He did not think that sary that there should be same enquiry as to what is the real state of things with regard to smuggling from this colony. The term smug gling is a misnomer, as this is a free port, and there can be neither smuggling into it nor out of it, but it be made a smuggling basis, and thereby interfere with the Chinese revenue. My hon. friend (Mr. Johnson) has said the statement of Inspector Mackie is all hearsay. The inspector, however, distinctly states that there were taken from Shau kiwan harbour 3,066 balls of opium, and that when brought back he kept it, waiting instructions. The form of expression may be some what loose, but he certainly says that he detained the opium. It struck me at the time as odd that the price should be set down as only $12,200 for about 51 chests, but that is explained by the statement that a quan.ity of the opium was Malwa, and therefore its value was intich less, It is very clear there ought to be some inquiry as to whether opium smuggling is carried on from this colony on so large a scale. It is alleged on the one hand by Sir Rutherford Al cock and Sir Thomas Wade that there is a great deal of smuggling, and that this is really a smuggling depot, On the other hand, the Gov- ernors of the colony have maintained the con- trary, Sir John Pope Hennessy excepted. think it is due to the colony to make inquiry to see if any

of the merchants here, English or Chinese, have been engaged in smuggling. therefore second the motion of my hon. friend.

Mr. Ryrie-If a commission is appointed and the proceedings published, I think it would do this colony more harm than good. When the last inquiry was held the Chinese took advant- age of everything that favoured their view of the case, and ignored everything on the opposite clauses of the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act side. If these acts of violence took place within had been already submitted to a Special Com. our jurisdiction, I don't understanal! why the mittee and had been substantially approved. Pour outside, lave stopped them. If they He therefore thought they could start from that. A FURNISHED FAMILY occurred outside, I don't see that it concerns us. He agreed with the Chief Justice that if they I doubt very much the occurrence of this great were making a beginning it would be desirable engagement, 100 men on one side, and to on to refer such a complicated measure as this was the other. I doubt whether it ever took place. to a competent Committee, but he would suggest I myself have visited, the place recently, and also that they were bound to look at the matter so far as I could see there is no preven-from a practical standpoint." Owing to the undue tive service, there, and if any one can sinuggle baste with which the former Bilf was passed' opium into China with impunity they can do so through Committee, there were matters included there. There were only one or two illiterate and omitted that ought not to have been, but he coolies at the place, and what there was to pre- thought the credit of the Council as a legislative vent people carrying opium over the hills I body was to a certain extent involved now in failed to see, there being no semblance of a pre putting the measure through rapidly, and there, ventive service worthy the name, I think my fore he would suggest that they should go on at self if the police and perhaps my hon. friend once, it being understood that the clauses re opposite (Mr. Russell) will make Inquiries, we ferred should undergo some modification. will get every information required without having an expensive commission and all the attendant inconveniences, publication, &c.

armed bands from leaving it.

Mr.Johnson having signified his acceptance of this condition, Sir George Phillippo said he was not prepared to day to go into the question

of

the sections taken from the Lands Clauses

Consolidation Act.

The Administrator said that perhaps there would be no objection to going on with the first few clauses of the Bill, whereupon the Bill was read a second time, the Council going into Cont mittee upon it.

Clause 2 (interpretation) was allowed to stand over.

In respect to clause 6, conferring power to- make additional tramways, Mr. Price said he had raised the question before as to whether this clause conferred a monopoly on the company for the construction of tramways. He did not know, what the opinion of his hon. friend opposite (Mr. Johnson) might be, but if the clause con- ferred a monopoly, he thought it undesirable.

Mr. O'Malley thought there was nothing in the clause of the kind mentioned by Mr. Price.

The Administrator-I think it would be more satisfactory, both to the Government and the public to have a commission to inquire into. the amount of smuggling that is going on here. The evidence need not be published. A great deal of valuable evidence night be got from Chinese and officers of the Chinese cruisers, who would probably refuse to give any evidence at all unless it was to be considered confidential. It would be for the commission to consider that point. If they thought it necessary to make a promise to any ofthese people that their evidence would be considered confidential, they could refer to it in their report without publishing the evidence or the names of the people, Referring to the report of the inspector, I understand that this affair took place on the mainland. Reading from the reportThe boats and a hundred men came to Shaukiwan on the zoth instant and crossed ever in small boats to Cha-ko-ling on the morning of the 21st instant. They had not gene far from Cha-ko-ling when they encountered about go men belonging to the Chinese Customs Several shots were exchanged, one of the Custom- house men was killed and two were wounded." That, I understand, took place on the mainland. I think the whole thing was devised in China, and that the men came to Shaukiwan where the opium could be obtained and that on taking it over to Chinese territory they were turned back by the Customs people, and returned to Shaukiwon. I do not think the police are in Anyway responsible in the matter. I do not see how they could have prevented it.
