It is stated war will inevitably have
marked effect upon the prosperity of
Hong Kong. This is the nearest and the largest neutral port to the nations affto1 by the campaign, and to it all the trade of that remote region of the East will be for the present diverted. Hong Kong will necessarily become the depot for almost everything, and should the Chinese ports be blockaded by the Japanese, Hong Kong may, and must inevitably become the centre of a fleet of blockade runners. The possibilities of a war between two such Powers as China and Japan cannot be subjected to time limit, and the longer it lasts the greater will be the gain of the great British Colony on the China Sea.
Important telegrams were, the Press Association says, received at the Foreign Office late yesterday evening from Pekin confirming the report that there had been serious fighting in Corea between the Japanese and the Chinese troops. A copy of the message was sent at once by Lord Kimberley to Lord Rosebery, who is remaining in town during the crisis. Lord Kimberley has demanded a strict inquiry into the Kow Shing massacre, and has asked that the British Consul shall be present at the court-martial on the commander of the Japanese cruiser which destroyed the vessel. The German Government has instructed Captain von Han- neken, who was on board the Kow Shing, to give all the information in his possession to Mr. Gubara, the British Acting-Consul at Seoul.
