Remuneration for the protection was asked for, but afterwards withdrawn by order of the Military Mandarin, who said it was the Officials' duty to protect trade, and no charge would be made. The officer Commanding the Sandpiper* is of opinion that this incident would have a good effect on the River.
9. My submission No.582 of the 11th August 1899 will have acquainted their Lordships with my opinion of the necessity of another vessel of the "Sandpiper" class for patrolling the West River. The "Tweed" is available for service between Fuch-au and Samshui, but has too great a draught for navigating in safety the numerous creeks and canals between Samshui and Canton.
10. A second or third vessel patrolling these rivers would certainly have a good effect, though their movements would probably be watched, and advantage taken of their being in another part of the River for any attacks to be made on vessels. Still, it should decrease the evil,
11. To effectually Police the North and West Rivers, relieving China of her responsibilities in this respect, would take more vessels than are at my command of a suitable type, and I think would be perhaps better, certainly more cheaply, done by a Water Police Force stationed at the various ports, with fast steam boats at their disposal. The Governor of Hong Kong has had this matter under his consideration, and if so ordered, I would submit a scheme in agreement with him.
12. The trade of China now suffers as much as ever from the lawlessness that prevails and which it is of course really the duty of China to suppress, if she pretends to Sovereign Rights.
