of affording such protection has not the support of any

Article in the Treaty and it is not expedient to accede

to it.

The Viceroy issues orders to the district magistrate of Ho-pu for the latter's guidance, and also to

the abovementioned military departments, to the effect

that in the event of any foreign vessel being hereafter

wrecked upon or near the Pratas Shoal, measures must be

taken in accordance with the Treaty for affording them

protection, and also that efficient steps must be taken

without intermission for seizing and bringing to trial

the piratical characters who resort to that locality,

as a necessary part of the proceedings for affording

the protection in question The Viceroy also instructs

Colonels Pao and Shang, the Commandants of the gunboat

squadron, to examine into the discrepancy pointed out

in the despatch now under acknowledgment between Major

Pan Kan-ting's report and that sent in by Lieutenant

Lloyd of the "Bouncer", and to report without delay to

the Viceroy whether any misstatement or suppression of

the truth is in reality chargeable against the said

officer.
