extrast from a note of a conversation which Mr.Clementi, Assistant Colonial Secretary, had, with my permission, with the Commissioner of Police, Canton, who is well known to Mr.Clementi and whose family reside in Hongkong with the result that the Commissioner usually spende

his week-ends in Victoria:-

#

He burst out against Japan, saying that the Japanese were a treacherous people, that they

were at the bottom of the trouble in the North and had stirred up strife with a view to annexing Manchuria. Russia, he believed, would also

swallow up Mongolia.

Upon my remarking that I had noticed a statement in the newspapers to the effect that Japanese had been fighting on the Southern side on the Yangtze, he replied that he quite believed this to be true."

3. I have sent a copy of this despatch to His Britannic Majesty's Charge d'Affaires at Peking.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient

humble servant,

Hoinaga

Governor, &C.
