Sir:-
I am directed by Secretary Sir E. Grey to trans-
mit to you herewith for the information of the Sec-
retary of State for the Colonies copy of a despatch
which has been received from His Majesty's Minister
at Pekin in regard to the restrictions placed by the
Chinese Passengers Act 1955 and the Hong Kong Ordin-
ance 1889 on the conveyance of Chinese Emigrants
under contract by British Steamships to foreign coun-
tries.
You will observe that Sir J. Jordan draws atten-
tion to resolutions on the subject which were passed
in November last by the Liverpool Chamber of Commerce
and sent to His Majesty's Secretary of State for the
Colonies, and that he suggests that it would be use-
ful for him to know what reply was returned by the
he Under Secretary of State,
Colonial Office.
