From bis Majesty's Consul, Foochow, to the Harbour Master, Hong-
-kong, dated 10th. March, 1906.
My telegram of yesterday steamer alluded to
"Powhatan" now in Japan wishes to proceed direct to Mexico from
Foochow supposing she does not possess passenger certificate issued
in United Kingdom or British Possession but has Japanese Emigration
Certificate will it be absolutely necessary for her to proceed first
to Hongkong in order to take out British Certificate or is it not
possible for me as Buigration Officer to grant such Certificate after
proper survey and outfit in accordance with Ordinance 1689 section
46 regulation 9. Is there any British legislation against steamer
taking contract labourers ? Will reply telegrams. Kindly send me
Ordinance 1889. Emigration urgent.
