the "H.K.Block-

-ade".(p.4).

On this letter Sir A. Kennedy wrote a

minute recording his own personal views and stating

that, although he had at one time thought of a Branch

of the Foreign Inspectorate, even in the Colony, he had

now abandoned that idea as interfering with the prestige

of the Government, It appears, therefore, that his views

on the subject had undergone a complete change during the

past two years.

-present the government of Hongkong at a Conference with a

representative of the Chinese Foreign Inspectorate and of

the Goverment of India to be held in Hongkong in 1886,
