presence a foreign warship night well do more harm than

good. At the same time I trust that it will be borne in

mind that the foreign community will in the immediate fature

be at the mercy of a gang of violently hostile and unscrupu-

lous ruffima, who will welcome and seek for any and every

exouse for harrying and venting their spleen on it; that this

gang will be wholeheartedly supported by a Goverment which

notoriously makes sport of Treaties and Consular representa-

tions and that any trivial mă unforeseeable incident may be

seized on as an exonse for extrayaget denands and reprisals,

or a food boycott be enforced, the special circumstances of

Hoihow are such that the foreign community will be far worse

off than in any other Southern port. As you are aware, the

steazer sohorage is an open roadstead subject to heavy sesa,

fully four miles from the shore. More than half this dis-

tance lies inside the 'spit' or ber and the whole channel of

nearly three miles is covered at low water (which often laste

for 12 hours at a time or throughout the day) by only a few

inches of water, navigable only by pants. Three hours with

unfavourable wind and tide bat a fall Chinese arew is not an

out of the way time for the single journey. It will be a

physical impossibility for foreigners to visit or take supplies

from a ship, which Chinese may be ordered to boycott.

If these MORETER – a strike of servants and a food

boycott - are taken, it may well be found that life on more

will become impossible unless a foreign warship is stationed permanently here to give assistance to a helpless foreign
