Auditor's Foreign No. of Work is not a large rate for Col. Sec. of Hong Kong. I we propose to relieve him of Audit duties partly in consequence of his increasing work as Col. Sec.\n\nThere is the question however of a general increase of salaries at Hong Kong alleged to be in consequence of the increased cost of living. It might perhaps be well to warn whoever is offered the vacant appointment that as he will be relieved of Audit duties, he will not necessarily be granted participation in any increase to his brother-officers.\n\nI agree.  \nL[or]d Knutsford 2/10  \nSug 2/10/89  \nFor. Secretary's probation & there this appointment the Hon'ble Mr. Heming is excepted, the Colonial Secretaryship 9 Mauritius & the Jerningham leasing for putting into consideration the question of who should succeed Mr. Heming in British Honduras.\n\nIt will be well to declare their leave forthwith by J[uly] 6/10/89 and I have mentioned this to W. J[erningham] about to return their views.\n\n## Telegram \nAppoint Mr. Heming to Hong Kong with the caution regarding Salary & Mr. Jerningham to Mauritius 1/10. Heming accepts.\n\nI have mentioned the fact about the Col. Secretary being relieved of Audit work and not necessarily participating in any increase if granted, to other officers.  \nI have written to W. Jerningham.\n\n## Lord Knutsford wishes a telegram to be sent to Hong Kong. \nShould it go by Some Secret means?  \nI think a despatch by Friday's mail, expressing the loss sustained by M. Stewart's death, as he was a very good man in every sense who had probably not an enemy in the world.\n\nM. Fleming must then be written to officially by next mail & further despatch sent to the Governor when his own is received.  \nC.P.I. quet.",

Leases granted during the last few years seem to have been sometimes made at nearly a rack-rent: sometimes at a rent less than a quarter of the full annual value. I presume the Surveyor General fixes the rent in each case according to his discretion.\n\nThis is virtually the practice as Gibraltar, where the amount exacted for rebuilding (= the Premium), and consequently the annual rental, varies in each case.\n\nThe proper principle is, I presume, to divide the full annual value between rent and premium in such a way as (1) to secure the highest profit to the Govt, (2) Ensure the best kind of tenant. In whatever proportion this should be it ought, I suggest, to be normally the same for all grants (subject to special exceptions for special reasons).\n\nI think the Gov. & Mr. Heming are probably right in thinking that the rents should be raised & the premiums lowered. The larger the revenue permanently reserved the better.\n\nBut there appears no advantage in first fixing a low rent, getting a high premium, and then letting three-quarters of that premium be commuted for an annual payment of 5% on it. It would be simpler to charge higher rent at first, & so get a lower premium at first. The proper course would seem to be to fix a proportion of the estimated annual value to be asked as rent - say one half, as on the Grosvenor Estate here - And then take the rest as premium.\n\nThe G.A.G's opinion?

There appears to be sufficient testimony available to establish a prima facie case against him in a Chinese Court; and it will be open to me, under the circumstances, to point out to the Viceroy that there are clues to his proceedings in Canton in connection with the murder which the Chinese Authorities, and not the Hongkong Government, are the proper persons to follow up.\n\n[Signature of] Ernest Satow, G.C.M.G.\n\nPage 365\n\nFeming.\n\n \nPage 365\n\n \n...\n\nPage 366\n\n...\n\nPage 366",

        "content_text": "Mr. WITCHELL: Yes, but they return as quickly as they are deported. Sometimes it is proved that they illtreat the inmates and they are sent to prison. I have known cases where severe sentences have been imposed on persons who detain girls against their will.\n\nA MEMBER: The best thing to do is to hand them over to the Chinese authorities. Mr. WITCHELL remarked that as long as procurers do not interfere with the wives and concubines of the officials, the latter do not take much notice of it in China.\n\nMr. WELLS stated that there were so many millions in China, and for purposes of prostitution only a small fraction migrated to Hongkong. It was a trade which produced millions of dollars; therefore, a fine of even $2,000 was nothing.\n\nA MEMBER stated that he had heard there was more prostitution in America and Europe than in China.\n\nMr. WELLS replied that that was probably so.\n\nA MEMBER said that one reason for that was that in China every man was provided with a wife.\n\nMr. WELLS: Yes, the idea being that a man who cannot afford a wife cannot carry on prostitution.\n\nMr. FEMING: In case a WOMAN can choose her husband, is there a special reason like Leap Year?\n\nMr. WELLS: Nobody chooses husbands in China. One out of a million may choose her husband.\n\nMr. FLEMING remarked that he observed a number of Chinese youths going out for tea with girls. There was surely an element of choice now-a-days?\n\nMr. WELLS: That is becoming so. There are educated girls and boys now. The girls who go to Wiseman's, for instance, are educated.\n\nA MEMBER stated that the question of employers paying small wages, as the Chairman had pointed out, was one of the reasons why they could not support their families. He was a new-comer to the Colony but what struck him forcibly was that there were so many men who did manual labour. Everything was drawn by men, wagons, etc. It is a very uneconomical way of handling freight. He had noticed some work done by the P.W.D. which he thought cost twice as much as it would have cost in America. They ought to provide the men with proper tools; and although a member might be thrown out of work as a result, it would only be for a time. Better tools provide better workmanship, better wages and more spending power. The result would be that labour would become necessary elsewhere and the men would then all have employment.\n\nThe Rev. G. UPPDELL wished to know whether it was considered that labour was paid cheaply compared with the Chinese standard.\n\nMr. WALLS thought that in some cases the coolie was well-off. In other cases he was badly treated. It was a disgrace to all of them as Britishers that no interest whatever was taken to better the condition of children. As long as the practice continued they were parties to it because they submitted to the evil being in their midst. It was their duty to press the matter home.\n\nThe resolution concerning registration, with a view to abolition of girl slavery was then unanimously passed.\n\n435\n\n1",

If, however, Article 4B has been added to Proclamation 27 would you kindly obtain for us three copies thereof and ascertain the date it came into force. \n\nAs we are being pressed for a quick reply on this matter, would you please let us know the position as soon as possible. \n\nYours sincerely, \nH.
