The

In the Statement issued on the 13th, reference was made to the Gentlemen's Agroamont which conoarned the precise method of dealing with the Polios. Publicity is row given to this bmtlemen's Agreement in view of the accusation wicot by the Canton Pazette that the Yolico wama dəliberately deceived. terms of the kantlemen's Agreement are sa follows:-

"As regards the Polios, it is recognised that they must be

treated on terms which shall oause ro resentment or lil-feel- ing, the desire of both sides being that a permanent settle- mant shall be affected, It is accordingly agmond that the bunnila will annopt the resignation of the Folian and grant to each a gratuity based on length of serving and that, musjent to the ro-employment of much of the man as the "buncils may nalost for iolion or other serving (the number of auch am bein; in the absolute dianrotion of the "bungils),

r. Oun Yat-aon, who se the trikory will accept the offer of good offices have bean solicited in the matter, to incorporate the men not ∞- re-employed into the Thinese Police Forne of the City of Tanton. In mlisting new Poling, the Sounails will bear in mind the advisability of employing Kuangtung aom in order to avoid the possibility of misunder- standing and friction likely to be osused by Police who do not speak the lantonese dialect".

The arguments employed in the Danton Gazette, and the fact that up to 10 a.m. today the pinkots far from being removed, have been doubled, after repasted references to the *rovincial Foreign office and their verbal assurance that the pickets wuld be removed as soon as possible, have rendered it asaential that the Public should be in possession of the full

text and all it movil.
