required for carrying out Sir G. Bowen's recommendations which, Colonel Stanley added, were in accordance with the rules which had been found

necessary.

Lord Salisbury concurred in these views and direct-

-ed that care should be taken to avoid the irregularity.

On March 31, 1887, the Chamber of Commerce forward-

-ed, through the acting Governor, a letter addressed to Lord Salisbury requesting permission to continue the practice of communicating direct with Her Majesty's Minister at Peking and stating that in every case

a copy of any such communication would be handed to the Colonial

Government at the same time. In transmitting this letter to Lord Salis-

-bury the Secretary of State for the Colonies observed that in ob- -jecting to the practice Lord Stanley had done so in the belief that

the Governor was left in complete ignorance of the correspondence. If,

however, copies of all such communications, having reference in any way

to Colonial interests, were simultaneously furnished to the Colonial

Government, Sir H. Holland was not disposed to raise any objection to

meeting the wishes of the Chamber of Commerce in the matter. Lord Salis-

-bury expressed his concurrence in these views.

Having regard to the correspondence outlined above

I sun of opinion that the Governor of Hongkong should receive a copy of

every communication addressed to His Lajesty's Representative at

Peking. If this is not done I think the practice should be discontinued

and communications should be sent through the Governor. The essential

object is that the Governor should be in a position to express his views on, and have a full knowledge of, all such communications.

I am further of opinion that communications address- -ed by public bodies or individuals in the Colony to the Dean of the Diplomatic Body in matters of international interest should be for- -warded through the Governor to His Lajesty's Representative who would

convey them to the Dean.

As regards a Chinese Body addressing the Legation direct I am in complete agreement with the views held by Your Excel-

-lency.

I am forwarding copies of this correspondence to
