No. 32.

Addressed to Peking No, 205.

Butterfield local manager of Swires (7 group omitted) Steamship "Tungchow" which left here for Tientsin on December 17th was pirated by Chinese travelling as passen- gers on December 18th, 200 miles south of Wei-hel-wei and taken to Bias Bay near Hongkong.

Captain was seriously wounded but passengers are safe and, with ship, are now in Hongkong.

Amongst 14 foreign passengers were Gamble, newly appointed archivist to His Majesty's Legation, and Wood(?wur)d of Hankow-Tientsin (group undecypherable),

Confidential bag No.73 from Foreign Office and Bealed cover from Tokyo were in charge of chief officer and I am enquiring by telegraph as to safety of these,

May I urge immediate action be taken by British naval authorities to der. with pirate base in Bias Bay. If can- sular officer and some members of "Tungchow's" crew ac- companied His Majesty's Ships as has been done with succes in previous cases and search were made on the chore traces of loot would probably be found and those implicated could be handed over to Chinese authorities. There is full

treaty
