My Lord,

I have the honour to transmit herewith

a copy of a despatch from His Majesty's Consul-

General at Seoul in which in compliance with my

request he submits his observations on my own

despatch No. 500 of the 27th of November to

Your Lordship. At the same time I enclose copie

of a letter from Dr. Schofield of Seoul, which

appeared in the Japan Advertiser" of the 27th of

November with reference to torture in connection

with judicial examinations in Korea and of a

Note on the same subject which I sent privately

to the Director of the Folitical Bureau in the

Foreign Office on the 1st of this month.

In a brief reply, dated the 8th instant,

Mr. Yoshizawa informed me that my suggestion of

an amnesty had been conveyed to the Civil

Administrator of Korea, who is at the moment in

Tokyo; but I doubt greatly if it will bear fruit.

Yesterday evening, the Vice Minister for Foreign

Affairs whom I met at dinner, told me that the

Governor-General and Civil Administrator of

Coreawwere in sympathy with my suggestion for a

general amnesty but that they were confrontad

by the fact that so many of the prisoners were cig
