25th September 1906

Referring to your telegram of 24th September, now anticipated that private European and Chinese subscriptions will reach 125,000 dollars. Government of Hong Kong will vote equal amount. These sums will be sufficient for relief of survivors and for replacing native craft necessary for trade of Colony.

So many entire families have been lost that number to be relieved is relatively small to extent of disaster.
