Translation.
H. M. Consul-General to Civil Governor,
November 17, 1913.
H. M. Consul-General is in receipt of a communication from Messrs. Shewan, Tomes & Co. stating that their limestone contractor reports that in accordance with the instructions of the Civil Governor ne proceeded to the Sansui district on tue oth. instant and filed his petition. He had an interview with the LaListrate, who inforced him that he must agree to pay one doller per ton as a contribution towards official expenses and for local self-government purposes. He was un- -able therefore to outain the licence. Tessrs. Chewan, Toner & Co. remark that there must be some misunderstanding since they were in- -formed by the Civil Governor at an interview that the licence fee would be the only charge levied.
When H. . Consul-General lately discussed this metter personally with the Civil Governor it was clearly agreed that, apart from a small licence fee which would be the same as that paid by the Canton Cement Works, no other tax would be imposed. There would there- -fore appear to be a mistake on the part of the Sa.smui Lagistrate in levying this impost and H. H. Consul-General would be obliged if the Civil Governor would furnish him as soon as possible with an explanation thereof and at the same time instruct the Maistrate to act in accordance with the arrangement reached at the interview.
