It will, of course, be the duty of the Government of Hongkong to maintain a strict neutrality.

Liu, the Chinese Minister, and M. Thein, the French Minister, have been entertained by me at luncheon and dinner respectively, and I have had some conversation with both.

Li Hung Chang, the new Chinese Minister, has just arrived.

I have to report to Your Lordship that I am maintaining a strict neutrality.

My Lord,

I have the honour to be,

Mr Meade: We need not send a copy to the War Office, but before acknowledging it, might enquire of the War Office with reference to 7453 (dated 30 April) whether the Treasury have yet given their sanction to the issue of the Stores referred to therein to this Colony.

I phoned to W.G. and asked whether it would be important to hang on to the question.
