Sir:-

I transmit to you copies of correspondence as marked in the margin, on the subject of the employment of natives of India.

You will perceive that the Secretary of State for India enquires whether the experience of the Municipal authorities at Shanghai and Tientsin, since the new rules for recruiting policemen in India have been in operation, is in accord with those of Hongkong that there is no decrease at all in the number of eligible recruits who offer themselves locally and apparently no check whatever upon their migration further eastwards to Japan, Foochow, the Chinese Treaty ports and even to Canada.

I shall be glad to receive a report from you on this subject.

Sir J. N. Jordan, K.C.M.G., &c., &c.
