Sir:-
I am directed by Secretary Sir E. Grey to acknow-
ledge receipt of your letter 6367 of the 4th instant
respecting the case of 0. Yung.
You are aware from my letter of November 18th,
1907, that the claim of 0. Yung was presented to, and
rejected by, the United States Government in that year
and that Sir E. Grey proposed in the absence of any
stronger evidence to take no further action in the
matter.
The case is one which is eminently suitable for
determination in a law court and it is therefore
regrettable that the action of the United States Govern-
ment should have prevented the courts at Hong Kong
from clearing up the facts. If, however, the case
were now to be brought before the Claims Commission it
would be necessary for the Commission to deal with it
as it would be dealt with by a law court.
That is to
e Under Secretary of State,
Colonial Office.
