It may be hoped that the statement of which the above is a resumé, forward- ed to H. A. acting Consul at Swatow, will have some effect in bringing Captain Hamilton's case before the notice of the authorities, but we feel it our duty to aid that end by giving the matter any publi elty in our power. It is quite obvious that nothing can be done to compel the rescued Chinese to pay the amount, nor, despite our sympathy with Captain Ha- milton, do we think such an attempt would be advisable, even if likely to be successful. It is however most obviously. a éase for official interference, and it is possible that Mr acting Consul Thomas' report to the Minister may result in 90010 spontaneous action on the part of the Peking authorities, when they learn the facts of the case.
