H. B. M's. Consulate-General,

Canton, 8th. December,1900.

With reference to your despatch of

yesterday's date, I have the honour to enclose herewith

for the information of His Excellency the Governor, a

paper which I have good reason to believe is a correct

resume of the evidence given by Chih Ching Yu and refer-

red to in the Acting Viceroy's despatch of 23rd.

November.

This document was obtained indirect-

ly and I therefore beg to request that it may be consi-

dered as Confidential.

I have etc.,

(sa.) B. C. George Scott,

H. M. Consul-General.

The Honourable

J. H. Stewart-Lockhart, C.M.G.,

Colonial Secretary,
