I am directed by Secretary Sir E. Gray to acknow-

No. 3301/10 - 11 transmitting copy of a despatch from
the Governor of Hong Kong relative to the importation
of Formosan sugar into that Colony.
I am to state that Sir E. Grey does not propose
to bring the question of the existence of a bounty on
the production of sugar in Formosa before the Inter-
national Sugar Commission at Brussels and that, pending
condemnation by that body, Formosan sugar (with the
exception of candied sugar) may be treated by the
Government of Hong Kong as free from bounties. In
these circumstances it is regrettable that the Governor
of Hong Kong should have informed the Japanese Consul
that the question would be referred to the Sugar Com-
mission. This is a matter for His Majesty's Govern-
ment
he Under Secretary of State,
Colonial Office.
