the plaintiffs were produced between the 10th and 13th December, 1921, and the undersigned only assumed his functions as Consul for Chile in Hongkong on the 20th February, 1922.

Beosuse in order to reit to your office the sum of fifteen hundred dollars ($1,500.00) claimed by the plaintiffs it would be necessary to charge the said mm of money to the Chilean Tressary and in that case I would have, as Chilean official, to request an authorisation from them for so doing, which authorizat- ion certainly could not be given before an administrative or judioal action be ordered to prove without doubt the culpability of the Chilean Government Representative in Hongkong, namely, the ex-Consul for Chile bere.
I beg to remind that owing to the claims, already men- tioned in your letter which I have the honour to answer, I approach -ed the Honourable Secretary for Chinese Affairs and let him know to all the details that I possessed of this matter, promised him my whole-hearted co-operation and requested from him to put the whole matter in the hands of the Courts of Justics for the punish- ment of the would-be-gui ity.
I would like to obtain, through your valuable interven- tion, Sir, an authorisation from His Excellency the Governor to take up the matter to the Criminal Courts in order to define res- ponsibilities, because although I did intent legal action when some publications were made in the local Press, which I immediate-' -ly refuted, (Document No.4,) the Barrister-at-law, Mr. Potter,whom I engaged through the Solicitor Mr. §. R. Haywood, was of the opinion that legal proceedings could not be taken by me against anybody because the accusations could not, in any way, affect me officialy and personally.
I hereby submit the request above-mentioned for reasons of public interest of Chile, a friendly country of yours, and I expect from your sense of fairness to be good enough as to grant my petition for reparation and justice,
I have etc.,
