Mr. Chen you will appreciate that so far as concerns the first

matter you mentioned, theдlist of your enemies, no official use was

made by this Commission of any of the contents of that list; and

therefore the organ of the press against which you complain here can

certainly not say that they have given a fair report of the proceed-

ings at this Inquiry. I cannot offer you more solatium in the matter,

I regret. If you never have any greater grievance against the local

press than that they substituted one work for another you can

consider yourself an exceedingly fortunate man.

Secretary: May I say that all the papers, including the list now men-

put in.

Chairman:

We will now adjourn until Tuesday morning, when certain

public inquiry will continue at about 10.15 in this Court.
