Messrs. Webley and Co. have some explanation to offer. There does not appear to have been any breach of the Ordinance of Hong Kong which would render the goods liable to seizure under the law of Hong-Kong.

The exporters seem to have applied for a license under section 6 of the Ordinance No. 9 of 1900, which appears to have been the proper course.

4. We think the arms might be delivered up to the exporters on the understanding that they should be re-shipped to England, or to some other place to which the proclamation does not apply.

Nothing further occurs to us.
