TELE RAM

From the Secretary of State, London, to the Governor, Hongkong,

dated 2nd September, 1904.

Referring to my telegram of yesterday I suggest

that crew of "Inkur" should be returned to this country as soon as

possible either serving on board of other ships or as distressed seamen,

owners of "Inkum" being prepared to make good whatever expenditure

they may be hereafter held to have legally incurred. "Inkur" should

not be detained but allowed to proceed to South Africa.
