HIS BRITANNIC MAJESTY'S CONSULATE GENERAL,
CANTON.
July 27th, 1903.
I have the honour to enclose herewith a
copy of my Despatch No.26 of the 25th instant to His
Majesty's Chargé d'Affaires at Peking regarding the
present situation in Canton.
Locally, I consider
there is no cause for uneasiness other than the usual
robberies. One or two officials, however, are somewhat anxious about their position, and the services
of the United States and French Consuls are being invoked to intercede and work in their interests and
save them from denunciation by the Viceroy.
I have, &c.,
