The report refers to the case of purely Chinese trade to places in the neighbouring province, and I may add that consign- -ments of purely Chinese produce such as dried ducks, lily root and other things, not handled by European firms, are also being allow- -ed to go to Chinese firms in Northern China and Siam which are not on the White List.

I enclose copies of each of the three Orders- -in-Council referred to in the report of the Attorney-General.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient, humble servant,
