The Italian Convent can accommodate about

two hundred

Chinese girls and destitute females. Of

the two hundred there now, twenty-six were received at

the request of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs. It

is not at present the practice to request either of

these institutions to receive Muitsai.

5.

It will be seen that the Po Leung Kuk has at

present room to spare for Muitsai requiring shelter, and

I see no reason to anticipate that it will be necessary

to provide additional accommodation in the near future.

The situation is being carefully watched and steps

will be taken to increase the accommodation should it

be found necessary.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord,

Your Lordship's most obedient, humble servant,

Governor. &c.
