Now what was this money given for, do you know ? Well, probably it was given to him so that things might be done better.

Is this in the nature of what the Chinese understand by "squeeze pidgin" ?

484 4 Why should you give it to that man ?

He asked you for it. He says "Well, you must give me some present",

He demands it ?

Well, sometimes he doesnt dare to say anything about it; when he sees you do the work, he makes a row about the work and says it is not proper, and you say to him "I will give you a present".

But how long has he held the contract for this firm ?

Only one or two years.

Is he still the contractor ?

This man is only accountant.

The previous witness, I might explain, is the man with whom the contract is made. He is partner of the Fuk On firm, and this man is accountant, and the Fuk On firm really have the contract, but Leung In is the man really with whom the Government has the contract. This man is more satisfactory than the previous one. I explained because I happened to know him.

Is this the only man to whom he has given money in this way ?

No others particularly.

Particularly i

There was Kelly formerly.

Not Kelly, - O'Keefe ?

I did not deal with O'Keefe.

It is just as well to keep as many of his brother Inspectors out of it, because all this will go before
