As regarding emigration to the Straits, Dutch Indies

and other places to which assisted emigrants are allowed. The

examination at the Harbour Office which is instituted, almost

solely to prevent emigration abuses is worthless and practical-

-ly a farce. A free emigrant, and a man who has been abroad

before is not likely to be the subject of any abuse, and can be

passed as a matter of course. All the emigrants at the Harbour

Office are presumed to be free and hence the only good that can

There be done is to detect/that are not free and children under age,

and to samt send them for examination to the Registrar-general's

Department.

The system of examination at the Harbour Office is

as follows:- The emigrants are collected together in a the yard

and the beat store room, being marshalled by their boarding

house runners and kindred class. One by one they are assisted

by the boararding house runners the Chinese assistants of the

pasaage brokers and a sikh constable into a sort of telephone call box, with an opening like a railway booking office hole,

Opposite this hole is a table at which sits the officer passing emigrant (Mr. Lenfessey at present) the Chinese Interpreter, the passage broker andthe messenger who stamps the tickets,

Through the opening in the emigration box only the face and shoulders of the emigrant are visible to the passing officer. At the end of the table is a large electric fan blowing direct- -ly on the opening when the would be emigrant is prodded by the bearded sikh policeman and Chinese connected with the boarding houses and the coolie business. The reason for the existence of this fan is stated by the warbour Master to blow the smell away! The set questions are as a rule run off, the emigrant being assisted by prods etc. from the constable and answers from the attendant Chinese and finally with a bang the stamping machine impresses a stamp on the ticket and the emigrant is

shoved out of the box.

The whole thing is an absolute farce, the intention

and
