Government House,

Hongkong, 16th November, 1904.

I have the honour to transmit for your information, in case any representation is made through the Foreign Office in the matter, a copy of a letter I have received from the Major-General Commanding in South China covering a report from the Officer Commanding the camp in which the Officers and men of the former Russian Torpedo Boat Destroyer "Burni" are interned, and a memorandum of an interview which Major-General Villiers Hatton had with the Russian Sub-Lieutenant Pini on the subject of this report.

Enclosure 1. November, 1904.

Enclosure 2. November, 1904.

Enclosure 3. November.

2. This Officer's request for leave to go to Shanghai to consult the Russian Admiral, who was there as a refugee, was refused by me as it was open to Lieutenant Pini to communicate in writing with the Admiral if he thought fit. The Admiral has since been sent to Russia on account of his health and I am informed that when passing through Hongkong he saw Lieutenant Pini, who, acting possibly on the Admiral's advice or on that of the Russian Consul here, M. de Bologowskoy, with whom he is of course in free communication, has made what he considers a protest against the camp in which his men are interned being in the charge of a British Officer.
