matter might be considered to be one affecting the sovereign rights of China.
We take this opportunity of skying that in our opinion the two most serious questions to be decided as regards the Mixed Court are as follows:--
1. Had the Municipal Council, or the Consu- far Body, the legal right to station à Municipal Policeman in the Mixed Court on the 9th April, 1905, and daily afterwards?
2. Hnd the Municipal Council, or the Consular Rody, the legal right to give, or to sanction the giving of, instructions to the Mun- icipal Folice to remove Chinese female. pri- soners to the Municipal Gaol contrary to the will of the Mixed Court Magistrate ?
·Our contention is that both these, ncis were illegal and wrong, and that they caused the riot which occurred on the 18th December last,
We nito say that the responsibility for the riot and the damages resulting therefrom rests entirely upon the Municipal Council,
We shall be obliged by your informing us whether you propose to publish this corres pondence, as in the event of your not doing so, we shall send it to the papers.—1 nm, etc.,

he honour to draw your attention to the case under the heading "Miscellaneous." You will observe that although blows have been abo. ished at the Court. by Imperíal Edict, and the the. Mixed Court fact officially intimated by t Magistrate as a reason for the removal of police supervision, the proceedings at the Court continue to affold the fullest justification for the Council's contention that the su pervision of this instruction by the jud icial and executive authorities of the Foreign Settlement is essential to the maintenance of law, order, and good government. Taken in connection with the case officially brought to
