I am staying until to-morrow as there has been disturbance at Kak-tin, this should be promptly dealt with. Captain Rowcroft is away in Shamchun, demanding fine for cutting of telephone wires.

Measures taken at Kak-tin were perfectly successful & no further trouble expected there. Elders at Shamchun are insubordinate & strong measures may be necessary. Force in camp ample to deal with the situation.
