Viceroy of the Two Kwang Provinces, and I entertained him at lunch. He expressed himself as most anxious to co-operate in every way with this Government. On January 20th. he addressed a letter to the Consul-General complaining that the increasing

fact prevalence of the crime of kidnapping &c., was due to the that criminals took refuge in Yaumati in this Colony, and if he desired to obtain their extradition he found that they got news of the fact and effected their escape. Mr. Jamieson forwarded me a copy of this letter, and in my reply dated 10th. February, 1911, I pointed out that I had already made almost identical representations through the Consul-General a year before (10th. January, 1910) and had invited co-operation, without any practical result, and I added if information were given to the Hongkong Police arrests could be made with rapidity and secrecy. On February 24th. last according to custom I paid an official visit to the new Viceroy, and he entertained me at lunch. While still at table to my surprise, he broached the subject of co-operation between the two Governments especially in the matter of suppression of crime. I responded cordially and said that there were many suggestions which could make but they were matters of executive detail which were more fitted for practical discussion between the Heads of the Police of the two Administrations than between ourselves. He replied that he would send a responsible man to talk the matter over.

As soon as lunch was over His Excellency ask- -ed me if I would join him in a private room, for conversation. Having no idea what he wished to speak about, and expecting Mr. Jamieson would be present, I asked that Mr. Clementi might be present also, as I thought his memory would perhaps be better than my own, if precedents or figures were referred to, and I was naturally anxious, so far as the Hongkong Government was concerned, that some one should be present who could corroborate me if any statement were later imputed to me which I had not

made.
