the arrangement because P.C. Yeung Fat was cheating him, and he arranged for the money to be paid to P.S. 190 Tang Chung.

The money used to be paid to No. 9 Circular Pathway (Fang Chung's Club). Tang Chung asked me to go there and fetch it once a week for P.S. 43 Holt as Tang Chung had not time to get it.

After the beginning of the Chinese New Year, I went regularly once a week to No. 9 Circular Pathway and fetched $10.50/100 for Holt. The money used to be done up in a parcel. I used to receive it from Tang Chung's own hands. I used to pay it to P.S. 43 Holt either in the street, or early in the morning in the Central Station when the detectives met to get their instructions.

I received the bribes for P.S. 43 Holt and paid them to him for 8 weeks. After that, Tang Chung told me that I need not come for the money as he would pay it himself to the Sergeant.

Tang Chung told me that as he was paying No. 3 McIver, he could pay the money to Holt at the same time.

I know that Stanton, Quincey, and Baker all received bribes from Sam Yin in respect of the Fa Lane gambling house. E.S. 190 Fang Chung has told me so. I never saw any payments made to those three Inspectors, but it was a matter of common knowledge among the Detective Staff that Stanton and Quincey and
