sir,
31st March, 1897.
I am directed by the Secretary of State for War to
acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 30th November
last No. 22486/96, enclosing copy of a dispatch, and its
enclosures from the Governor of Hong Kong, on the subject of
lands at Kowloon over which the War Office exercises certain
rights for defence purposes.
In reply I am to inform you that Lord Lansdowne hes
no wish to dispute that there is a substantial difference
between Colonial Military Lands, of which the War Office
enjoys full use, and lands over which, while remaining in the
possession of the Colony or its tenants, the Wer Office only
enjoys restrictive powers, as against the erection of
buildings &c., With regard to lands of the latter class, he
is quite prepared to admit that the War Office has no claim,
To the Under Secretary of State,
For the Colonies.
