official with the object of levying blackmail or to sat-

isfy a private grudge, setting the law in motion against

a Hongkong Chinese merchant on the pretext that he was a

partner in a long or company which had failed in Canton.

For the doubt and uncertainty surrounding the composition

of these Canton tonge or partnerships, and the difficulty

there is in finding out whether a man is or is not a

Consular Courts in China. Any arrangment of the naturo

Governments could hardly work successfully unless it in-

cluded in its scope the foreign creditors (other than

British) of the bankrupt Chinese firm, and this could not

be effected without an international agreement between the

Troaty Powers concerned.
