Tout compte fait, peu de variations. Le rapport de l'encaisse au passif à vue est à 61,04 0/0 an Tien de 60.53 0/0 il y a huit jours.

Si on avait agi ainsi en France en 1848, la province ne subirait pas aujourd'hui, dans cet ordre d'opérations, le joug si pesant de Paris pour être édifié à cet égard, qu'à se rappeler le régime des succursales de la Banque de France et le comparer àt celui des comptoirs de la Banque nationale belge qui an moins a eu le bon esprit d'introduire les principes de self government dans ses règlements avec ces derniers (Voir Economiste Français da 29 janvier 1876, page 154). Mais avec la liberté telle qu'elle existe en Suisse, on est plus sûr d'atteindre ce résultat sans coup férir. En Belgique, une loi, bien qu'improbable comme vote, pourrait faire perdre tout le progrès conquis; en Suisse if est plus assuré. \n\nIl ne sera pas sans utilité de comparer la situation des principaux éléments de la richesse publique et du crédit de l'Etat, à une même époque, pour les cinq dernières années. \n\npen. 3 DEC. 2 pc. 1873 1874- 1875 \n\n30 sov. 1876 \n\nmillions. millions. millions. millions. millions. \n\n2.883.8 2.385.3 2.635.0 \n\n2.617.2 2.400.4 \n\n3.168.4 323.5 \n\nDATES \n\ndes \n\nBILANS \n\nENCAISSE \n\nMÉTALLIQUE \n\n| BILLETS EN CAISSE \n\ndes diverses banques \n\nET DU YWESOR \n\n| PORTEFEUILLE \n\nCOMMERCIAL \n\nAVANCES SER TITRES \n\nBILLEYSIG \n\nEN CIRCULATION \n\nDÉPOTS A VUE \n\nDEPOTS A TERME \n\nDONNIE \n\nRAPPORT \n\nde l'encaisse au pass \n\nMILLIONS DE \n\n7542.1 \n\n55.9379.21 \n\n58.8 360.5 38.8 351.6 60.5 951.4 \n\n58.21 361.8i \n\n59.7 337.81 57.8 869.2) \n\n57.2 397.0 \n\n54.0 456.9) \n\nREICHSMARK. \n\n48.9 665.6 155,01 75.8 47.8 659.8.109.8 74.33 44.9 650.8 177.9 78.5) 45.9 659.4.189.0 71.3 46.3 668.9'191.6) 70.6) 45.8671.8.185.0 69.7 45.9 709.6.168.0 68. 38.0 777.7168. 51.3 765.5 177.8] \n\n.91 473.2) 46.0 732.2 169.9 59.945 \n\n40.

Il est de tradition que, pour que la Banque d'Angleterre songe à recourir à la hausse du taux de l'escompte, il faut que ladite réserve tende a tomber au-dessous du tiers des comples courants du Trésor, des administrations publiques et des particuliers cumulés. \n\nLes Etats-Unis pour la plus forte partie et la Plata pour une somme moindre ont retiré, de là banque d'Angleterre, la majeure partie du million de liv. sterl. dont l'encaissé a baissé depuis huit jours. C'est par les comptes particu- liers et la circulation que ce retrait s'est opéré; il en ré- sulte naturellement une diminution de 771,750 liv. st. de la réserve, diminution qui eût été plus forte si le compte courant des administratious publiques ne s'était pas aceru de 301,451 liv. st. Somme toute, la proportion, de la ré- serve aux comptes courants réunis, est de 53.45 0/0 au Tien de 54.64 0/0 il y a huit jours, celle de l'encaisse au passif à vue de 49.93 0/0 au lieu de 50.66 0/0 la semaine dernière. La Banque d'Angleterre a résisté à la tentation de rehausser le taux de son escompte. C'est courageux de sa part, ear on la conseillait chaudement de le faire. \n\nLes échanges au \"Clearing-House, à Londres, ont roulé, celte semaine, sur 80,812,000 liv.st. contre 199.724,000 liv. st., il y a un an, à pareille époque.

A Paris, il y a, au contraire, un leger resserrement.

        "content_text": "# 看看 \n\n8 \n\nwith the disease among the women in order to show \"the great danger of infection which lurks in licensed houses,\" and it is apparently upon these pages that the fourth conclusion rests, which says (p. 52) \"That licensed brothels for foreigners are in themselves sources of infection, and that the evidence before us points to these establishments, rather than to unlicensed houses as the cause of disease to soldiers and sailors.' This view, however, conflicts with the opinion of two Registrars General, Mr. Smith (Answer 35,) and Mr. Lister (Answer 136.) Stress is also laid upon the small proportion of disease (Report, p. 38) among the women from unlicensed houses who were examined in the years 1870-75, while the opposite result obtained in the preceding year, June 1868 to June 1869 (Appendix, p. 294) viz.: 92 out of 101 or 108, is passed over in silence. This discrepancy would seem to have rendered further investigation desirable.\n\nIt does not appear from the report that the Commissioners considered the question how far the boats in the harbour and outdoor prostitution on shore are responsible for the spread of disease, although (p. 7) it is said that \"the Government has never been able to bring this kind of prostitution (among boatwomen) under the surveillance of the police or the medical authorities,\" upon which I may observe that it is not apparent why they should not have been summoned for medical examination as common prostitutes, under sections 44-45 of the Ordinance. The condition of the harbour is evident enough from p. 30 of the report, and Dr. Adams' evidence (Answers 1461-1465) as to the amount of disease spread by the washerwomen, who \"cut the brothel women out so far as the sailors are concerned,\" and Dr. Ayres' concurrence (Answer 1442,) coupled with the significant figures (Appendix, p. 294) of 1868-9, which give 15 cases of disease among 16 unlicensed boatwomen examined, (there being so far as I can perceive no other evidence of any examinations of the prostitutes among the boat population) prevent me from readily accepting the hypothesis suggested at page 41, that seafaring men become infected in licensed houses, which they can easily find, while they have less opportunity than soldiers for establishing relations with sly prostitutes, and that the ratio of disease among the troops is therefore less than among the sailors. I notice also that the Colonial Surgeon in his report of 1879 upon the Lock Hospital says, \"The trouble is with the women of the boat population, and it is from these that most of the soldiers and sailors contract disease.\"\n\nAt p. 39 of the report, attention is called to the returns of the Lock Hospital (Appendix, p. 292) and to the great number of admissions in proportion to the registered women, as indicating a very serious amount of disease in the licensed houses, and cites the \"722 admissions as against 312 registered women; that is to say, over 200 per cent, had become affected\" in the year 1870, when disease seems to have touched its zenith. If, however, reference is made to the Colonial Surgeon's report for 1870 (Appendix, p. 281) it will be seen that these 722 admissions result from 16,312 examinations undergone during the year by the 312 registered women, and 33 women, who were apprehended as unlicensed prostitutes, so that the proportion of cases in which disease was found to exist was about 4.4 per cent., leaving 15,590 examinations which disclosed no disease. These figures, which are not alluded to in the report, are sufficient to show that the inference drawn from the number of registered women and the number of admissions is misleading if taken by itself, and this fourth conclusion, in which you express your entire concurrence, appears to me to be based upon evidence which requires much further corroboration.\n\n## \n\nUnder the head of revenue, the report (p. 51) states that the Colony must have derived from the operation of the brothel laws a profit amounting, on the whole, to about $111,149.30, and it refers to certain documents, including a letter from the Colonial Treasurer (printed Appendix, p. 316). On turning to that letter, I find that \"it has not included any estimated sum for the work done by the Registrar-General's Department, the cost of which would, of course, be fairly charged against the revenue derived, if the whole expenses of carrying out the provisions of the Ordinance are to be calculated. There would also be a small addition for printing.\" The report, moreover, has made no allowance for the printing or for the expense of the Registrar-General's Department, or for the sums expended from the police Secret Service Fund. And it assumes that the fabric of the Lock Hospital has not only not depreciated in value in the climate of Hong Kong, but that it is even worth all the money expended on temporary repairs, painting, &c. since it was built. A calculation founded on such data is obviously untrustworthy.\n\nThe severe reprehension which is bestowed in the report on the employment of informers to obtain evidence, and other grave scandals, is well deserved but the Commissioners, in my opinion, go too far in their unsparing condemnation of everything connected with the enforcement of the Ordinance. The detection of unlicensed houses was a duty cast upon the Registrar-General and the officers of his department by the provisions of the law, and the obloquy which is cast upon them for their efforts in the discharge of this unpleasant duty appears to me not to be entirely merited. The use of plain clothes (p. 10, 17) seems both proper and natural, considering the services in which the wearers were engaged; and I am not prepared to say that the use of marked money is in itself necessarily reprehensible. The acceptance of money in consideration of a request for sexual intercourse is evidence of the character of the recipient and of the nature of her abode; and if the detective or informer, after giving the money, leaves the house, as appears from the depositions to have been not unfrequently the case, the fact of its acceptance, verified by its discovery in the possession of the alleged recipient, coupled with such other evidence as was forthcoming might be given in proof of the charge. This is quite a separate question from bad faith in the witness, such as is suggested at p. 17, or from the revolting conduct of informers themselves.\n\n9 \n\nI have read the cases referred to at page 17 of the report, which are selected \"in special illustration of that particular class of prosecutions in which the conviction is obviously based upon the taking of money, which is afterwards found by the inspector upon the woman, and matters have gone no further.\" And I would observe that the receipt of the money is in each case only one of the facts deposed to, and having regard to all the evidence which was given, I think it may be open to some doubt whether it is perfectly clear that the convictions were based on the taking of money.\n\nThe practice of breaking into and arresting the inmates of unlicensed houses led to undoubted abuses, although it seems clear that the inspectors acted under a belief that their proceedings were strictly according to law.\n\nIn these, as in the other defects of administration, the cause appears to lie in the want of sufficient care in selecting the men actually charged with the working of the Ordinance, and in leaving them too much to themselves when appointed. There was no lack of funds from which to pay thoroughly respectable and trustworthy men as inspectors, and if they could not be obtained on the spot for the salary offered, the assistance of this office might have been asked for to obtain them from the towns where the Imperial Acts are in force. It is not surprising that considerable laxity resulted from allowing these men to become independent of police discipline, and to be subject only to the Registrar-General, instead of the details of administration being supervised by means of a daily report of occurrences, such as is made in a police force.\n\nI agree with the Commissioners in their remarks (Report, p. 28) upon the seizure of marked money if it is beyond doubt that the money taken was detained from the women after it had been used in evidence. The inspectors, however, do not appear to have been questioned on the point, and if the allegation is substantiated by other evidence, it has escaped my attention.\n\n## \n\n46 \n\nFrom page 49 of the Report, it appears that during the ten years in which the Ordinance of 1867 has been in force, the Commissioners can only find 23 cases in all which seem to have any material bearing on the question of the liberty of the women in licensed houses, and the amelioration of their condition.\n\nIn the Appendix, however, the following cases, which are not mentioned in the Report, nor included in the above 23 cases, will be found to have occurred in the year 1874.\n\n| Case No. | Appendix Page | Description |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| 4 | 147 | Three women successfully applied for assistance against the keeper who had refused to allow them to leave the brothel. |\n| 5 | 148 | A similar case with one complainant. |\n| 19 | 152 | A keeper detained the property of a girl who wished to leave. |\n| ... (Apparently No. 37) | 160 | Several girls were saved from being sent to San Francisco against their will. |\n| 38 | 161 | The property of the same girls was in question, and was apparently recovered for them after it had got into improper hands. |\n| 53 | 164 | A woman complained that her grand-daughter, who had gone willingly to Singapore, had there been sold on behalf of a Hong Kong creditor, apparently a procuress. |\n| 57 | 165 | A girl of weak intellect was rescued when about to be taken to Singapore without her consent. |\n\nThese cases and No. 76 of 1871 (Appendix, p. 97), and No. 23 of 1873 (Appendix, p. 125), neither of which are referred to, and Mr. Whitehead's evidence (Answer 397), ... \n\nQ 4190. \n\nB \n\n418",

No scheme has been formulated as the extensive Public Works at present proposed will tax the resources of the Colony for four or five years. But if the expansion of the City goes on at its present rate the question of a bridge, or of an improved ferry system will ere long become pressing.\n\n3. On the 4th September, 1901, I addressed a letter to Vice-Admiral Sir Cyprian Bridge on the subject, a copy of which with his reply I enclose.\n\n4. The bridge will, according to the rough estimate of the Harbour Master, cost Nine Millions of Dollars. When the scheme comes to be formulated the question may fairly be considered whether a contribution might not be given by the Imperial Government equal to the value of the Colonial and Military Land taken by the Imperial Government for Naval purposes in 1896 without compensation to the Colony, which pays in addition 20% of its gross revenue as a Military Contribution. The area handed ...\n\nTHE RIGHT HONOURABLE  \nJOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN, M.P.,  \n&c...  \n\n... 39023/01. \nthe handing did not involve the over the war to the Amfl. South of addl.

As a preliminary, I beg to state that the subject of probate duty is one that I have ever made my personal concern. Indeed, it is one against which office complaints were made on my assumption of duty, and the enormous increase in the revenue since I have been in charge is the direct result of the attention paid by me in that direction.\n\n3. In the estate under consideration, I have no reason to believe that it has been undervalued, and I am confirmed in my belief by the enclosed reports (A) from the Deputy Land Officer and (B) Messrs Wilkinson & Grist, the Solicitors for the Executors.\n\n4. At the time of the filing of the Petition for Probate, Mr Sect, the Deputy Registrar and Appraiser, fully investigated the matter (as he invariably does in all cases of Administration) and satisfied himself as far as he was able to, as to the truth of the Petition.\n\n5. It would be interesting to know where Mr Thomson got his information to bring an undoubted fact that \"the Government is cheated in very many, if not all, cases of probate duty paid on Chinese estates.\" He has never been in the Registry of the Supreme Court; he knows absolutely nothing of the working or internal routine of my office, and so far as Acting Collector goes, he has never during the time he has been in the Treasury queried or attempted to query any valuation fixed by my Department.\n\n6. In contradiction of his statement as to the Chinese, I beg to state that there is no class of Asiatics more ready to pay the proper value when such has been ascertained than the Chinese. These people compare most favourably in that respect with Europeans, who I find, especially in Hongkong, are always prepared by subterfuge means to defraud the revenue, and in that respect, they are no worse than our own people in England, where such stringent... \n\nAppendix B-continued \n420 \n5f Oct 15 y 1903, pars \nof Admi \n\"tration) and \nAngered fin Mefiston's letter of Oct. 11 of Probate and Letters \n\n## appears to be a page footer or header with unrelated or garbled text, and is omitted for clarity.",

Jordan to Sir Edward Grey,—(Received June 17.)\n\n**(No. 202. Confidential.)**\nSir,\n\nPeking, April 29, 1907.\n\nI HAVE the honour to transmit to you herewith two Reports from the American Consul-General at Harbin which have been courteously placed at my disposal by my United States' colleague.\n\nMr. Fisher's information with regard to Mongolia does not appear to be very accurate, but his remarks on Northern Manchuria and the Russian position there deserve attention. That the affairs of the Chinese Eastern Railway, now that it is deprived of its outlet in Southern Manchuria, should be in a depressed condition is only what was to be expected, but the indifference of the Russian Government to all enterprises in its former sphere of political activity is also to some extent responsible for the present state of industrial stagnation.\n\nThe Russian Minister, who was formerly closely associated with the Russo-Chinese Bank and the Chinese Eastern Railway, frequently complains to me of the reaction which has set in since the war, and which appears to him as unreasonable as was the policy which, before the war, encouraged the schemes of Bezobrassof and others.\n\nI shall have occasion in a later despatch to report upon the Customs question, to which Mr. Fisher refers in his letter of the 4th April.\n\nI have, &c.\n(Signed) J. A. JORDAN,\n\nInclosure in No. 1.\n\nMr. Fisher to Mr. Rockhill.\n\nDear Mr. Rockhill,\n\nHarbin, Manchuria, March 26, 1907.\n\nMR. KAWAKAMI, the Japanese Consul-General, arrived at Harbin on the 2nd instant, and assumed his duties on the 4th, having taken temporary quarters in the Gamartelli Hotel in New Harbin of the Russian Railway Settlement. I am informed that he did not ask the permission of General Horvat to establish the Consulate-General within the Railway Settlement, but that he is quite willing to recognize the Railway's competence to put the proposed municipal administration into effect, although he claims to be without instructions from his Government on the subject. It is possible that the Japanese interests in the south have influenced him in the position he has taken. Upon his arrival here the Russian authorities made very friendly overtures to him, and I am informed that Minister Pekotilov offered him a railway building for his offices. The cordiality appears to have cooled somewhat within the last few days. The \"Harbin Vestnik\", the organ of the Railway Company, is now publishing some caustic accounts of Japan's administration in Corea, and her abuse of the Chinese in the south. In my opinion there is little indication that the Russians wish to join hands with the Japanese on the Manchurian question to the exclusion of other nations.\n\nThe Russian troops are practically all out of Manchuria. I am informed that only about 1,000 remain. General Dembovsky, who was in command, left for St. Petersburgh on the 22nd instant. A contract has recently been let for the removal of the Russian barracks at Harbin to the Primorsk and Amur provinces, the consideration being 700,000 roubles.\n\nThe depression of trade in Harbin continues to grow worse. The merchants are extremely pressed for money. Occasionally an establishment carrying heavy insurance takes fire, and as there is but little protection given against fire, it burns to the ground. The affairs of the Eastern Chinese Railway Company appear to be in bad shape. General Horvat recently made requisition for 1,500,000 roubles for payment of operating expenses,",

My letter to the \"China Mail\" obviously was no more than a very brief resume of some of the more salient facts.\n\n3. There is however one point to which Your Excellency's attention has not been directed. The question, when I wrote the letter to the \"China Mail\", was not a Government question. The making of the Rule of Court is by the Ordinance, No. 5 of 1898, put within the discretion of the Chief Justice. It has to be submitted to the Legislative Council for approval, but until this is done, the Government has no interest in the matter. I had put my request for the Government support into abeyance; which was a withdrawal of the question from the cognizance of the Government. Your Excellency, for reasons which, with much respect, I could not understand, ignored the fact that the matter was in abeyance, and informed me that you were unable to support my proposal; but at that time there was no such request on my part. Had I written to the papers while such a request was alive, the breach of the Colonial Regulations would have been palpable. But the facts were quite otherwise; the only question alive at the time was an administrative act, still inchoate, of the Chief Justice, with regard to which a great deal of puerile, ignorant, and offensive criticism had been going on in the Press.\n\n4. But there was a far more serious issue involved. No language is, in my opinion, sufficiently strong to condemn Mr. Hewett's action in the matter. By methods with which, I am sorry to say, we had become familiar from similar action on a previous occasion, he had endeavoured successfully - appeared, at the moment, to undermine my influence with the Solicitors, who are officers of my Court. He had",

At the utmost 3 or 4 only were legitimate criticisms. The animus with which the list had been drawn up was manifest: to make it as long as possible in order to carry out the sarcasm of the heading.\n\nAnnexed to Mr Severn's letter was also a memo. from the Treasurer containing some criticisms, most of which were erroneous. As to the letter itself the hostile spirit which actuated it was manifested by the piling up one on top of the other the errors which I knew of and those which had been alleged but not inquired into. Further it laid to my charge the mistake of omitting the Railways Loan Ordinance which was omitted on the authority of Government itself. But piled together in this reckless way it made a famous list on which to frame the indictment of inaccuracy. But apart from this the letter was wanting in the most elementary courtesy. There was no occasion to play Bombastes; on the contrary, having in view the position of the author and the circumstances in which the work had been done, and the magnitude of it, it was essentially a case in which the greatest consideration ought to have been shown. The mistakes were regrettable; no one regretted them more than I, as I had shewn by withdrawing the Volumes in order that they might be corrected. The course which courtesy and gentlemanly feeling demanded was, not to jump into the breach and brandish a wooden sword, but to point out that it was impossible for the Council to approve the Volumes until they had been corrected and to request me to correct them; a course which not only I was bound to, but should have agreed to without demur. I was not a Chinese contractor who had done work badly and insisted on its being accepted, but I was treated like one, and a hostility displayed at once which was entirely out of place. For instance, Mr Clementi asked me \"how I accounted for the mistake in the Official Signatures Ordinance?\" There was no question of \"accounting\"; it was a mistake, and one which could have been easily rectified. Another instance of this hostility was the attempted Mr Clementi that the Railways Loan Ordinance had been printed as a slip which is a fact after consultation with the Colonial Secretary's Office, The mistake about the slip was that the printers had omitted a page number, but this could have been put straight by hand-stamping.\n\none,\n\ndenial by",

His Excellency further agrees that in Macao, as is the case in Hongsong, there are Merchants who limit their trade to the import and export of certificated Opium to China, but that hitherto none of them have compleined that the Farm in Macao acts prejudicially to their legitimate trade, being natural-ly of the conviction that they are unaffected by it.\n\n7. His Excellency the Governor further directs me to say that the Macao Government remains with the best intentions of co-operating with the Hongkong Goverment in fact it has hitherto really co-operated in repressing the entry of illicit Opium into China. If some modifications in the legislation become necessary in consequence of the Conference at the Hague, of which the results are not yet officially known in Macao, His Excellency the Governor would propose adopting all such modifica-tions, conforing however to the same rules as may be followed in Hongsong having regard to the identical interests which the two Colonies have in this matter. As the term of the present con-tract will expire next year it would appear best that such alterations as may be thought convenient to adopt should then be made thus avoiding the binding clauses of the existing contract on the Macao Government.\n\nHis Excellency, however, suggest the expediency of securing the adoption of those modifications at all the neighbouring ports interested in the matter, for unless this is done such modifications would not be productive of useful re-sults commensurate with the sacrifice made.\n\nHealth and Fraternity.\n\n(Sd.)

C..\n\nin fonc. 5\n\nfrom Mr. Chan Pui in reply to Mr. Lenfestey it would seem that Mr.\n\nChan Pui was justified in considering that what purported to be a\n\ncareful check by the Assistant Harbour Master was sufficient, supposing always that Mr. Lenfestey was giving at least a minimum\n\nof attention to the accounts. We consider that Mr. Chan Pui was\n\njustified in accepting as correct and entering in his account books without further enquiry the figures which had been passed by the\n\nAssistant Harbour Master.\n\n10.\n\nA minute addressed by the Treasurer to the\n\nHarbour Master and the latter's reply are attached. A specimen of the slips referred to in paragraph 3 of the Treasurer's minute\n\nis also attached. It is most unfortunate that the check afforded\n\nby these slips was abandoned. The Harbour Master states that the practice was given up without his knowledge and the evidence of the clerks on the point is conflicting. It would seem however\n\nthat as far as the fees in the Junk Office were concerned Mr.\n\nLenfestey was responsible and he should not have permitted the check of the slips to be abandoned without the authority of the\n\nHarbour Master.\n\n11.\n\nIt is stated in paragraph 2 of the Harbour Master's minute that the clerks filled in the licences, handing them when completed to the shroffs. Mr. Lenfestey was understood to say that the shroff Lai Wing-tak filled in the licences paragraph 2 of this report -, but the matter is immaterial.\n\n12.\n\nWe would in conclusion draw attention to para-\n\n-\n\ngraph 3 of the Harbour Master's minute of 2nd July, 1913, in which he states that he had by personal inspection satisfied him-\n\nself that all was correct in the Junk Office books and counter-\n\nfoils books and counterfoils in which the frauds are so very\n\napparent. In view of this statement and having regard to the circumstances of previous frauds at the Harbour Office it is difficult to avoid the inference that the Harbour Master's is unable properly to understand the keeping of accounts and so is in a sense handicapped as regards the adequate supervision of his subordinates.

Head of Sanitary Department.\n\nThe Registers of Births, or Deaths, which have occurred in the Colony of Hongkong since the First day of January, 1873, are kept in the Sanitary Board Office. Every person is entitled to search such register and relative Indexes, in the custody of the Registrar, upon every week day, except Saturday, between 10 A.M. and 4 P.M. and every Saturday between 10 A.M. and 1:30 P.M. For every search of a Register, extending over a period not less than One year, the sum of Fifty cents will be charged, and Twenty-five cents for every additional year, and the sum of One Dollar for every single certificate. For every general search of an Index, the charge is Two Dollars and for every Particular search Fifty cents. By general search is meant a search during any number of successive hours not exceeding six, without stating the object of the search, while by particular search is meant a search over any period not exceeding Five Years for any given entry. Inventories are kept and Certificates of Entries can be obtained only at the Sanitary Board Office. Every extract of any entry in the Register Books kept under the provisions of the Registration of Births and Deaths Ordinance, No. 7 of 1896 duly signed and sealed, is admissible as evidence without any other proof of such entry.\n\nThe XXVth Section of Ordinance No. 7 of 1896 enacts: that every person who wilfully destroys or injures or causes to be destroyed or injured any such register book, or any part or certified copy of any part thereof, or falsely makes or counterfeits, or causes to be falsely made or counterfeited any part of any such register book or certified copy thereof, or wilfully inserts or causes to be inserted in any register book, or certified copy thereof, any false entry of any birth or death; or wilfully gives any false certificate; or certifies any writing to be a copy or extract of any register book, knowing the same register to be false in any part thereof, or forges or counterfeits the Seal of the Sanitary Board Office shall be guilty of felony, and, being convicted thereof, shall be liable, at the discretion of the Court to imprisonment with or without Hard Labour, to a term not exceeding two years.",

Kong by the Canton-Kowloon Railway Working Agreement.\n\n(2) As regards the period after the 26 May, 1911, Sir B. Alston appears to have overlooked Sir F. Lugard's desp. to Sir J. Jordan of the 13 Sep. 1911, a copy of which was enclosed in the letter from the F.O. of the 4 Nov. 1911.\n\n(2) While it is certainly the case that there has been a change of attitude on the part of the Govt. of H. Kong towards the taxation of salt, other considerations which led the col. Govt. to re-open the negotiation in 1915-16 have gradually ceased to operate; e.g. (a) the pressing need for addl. revenue; (b) the expectation that the Peking Govt. might in the near future again control Kuangtung; and (c) the hope that the Convention, or parts of it, could be put into force at an early date. It was not, however, until 1918-19 that the vexatious delays of the Chinese Govt. gave the Govt. of H. Kong an opportunity for reconsideration, and withdrawal.\n\n(Signed) G.

Reserve\n\nre\n\n## Step 1\nThe task requires proofreading OCR output of historical records related to Hong Kong, transforming the text into standard Markdown, correcting spelling errors, fixing spacing issues, rejoining broken sentences, restoring paragraph breaks, indicating missing words, and following specific formatting rules.\n\n## Step 2\nThe given text appears to be a mix of articles, news, and advertisements from a newspaper, likely the South China Morning Post, dated October 23, 1931. The text includes various topics such as legislative council meetings, budget debates, international news, and advertisements.\n\n## Step 3\nTo begin proofreading, we first need to identify and correct obvious OCR errors, such as misrecognized characters, incorrect spacing, and broken words.\n\n## Step 4\nUpon examining the text, numerous OCR errors are evident, including misspellings like \"zivil Hrvata\" which should be corrected to \"civil servants,\" \"éézust ruta\" to \"certain route,\" and \"kačzoaning\" to a more plausible word, possibly \"causing.\"\n\n## Step 5\nThe text also contains formatting issues, such as incorrect paragraph breaks and missing or extra spaces. For example, \"Page 13. „Duging yesterday'ı, Kadynt debati\" should be formatted as a header or title indicating a page break and the start of a new section or article.\n\n## Step 6\nSome sentences are broken across lines or columns without logical reason, and these need to be rejoined. For instance, sentences discussing the budget debate and legislative council decisions are fragmented and require reassembly.\n\n## Step 7\nThe text includes advertisements and news articles that need to be formatted correctly. Advertisements like \"Start-Rite Shoes\" and \"PEBECO TOOTH-PASTE\" should be identified and formatted as such.\n\n## Step 8\nFile references and page numbering need to be formatted according to the rules. For example, \"XCR (85)72\" should be \"XCR(85)72,\" and \"Page XX\" lines should be preserved as they are, indicating page breaks.\n\n## Step 9\nGiven the complexity and the volume of the text, a detailed, line-by-line correction is necessary to ensure accuracy and adherence to the specified formatting rules.\n\n## Step 10\nThe final output should be in HTML format using  for paragraphs and \n only when necessary, without including markdown or code fences.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nPage 13. „During yesterday's, Kadynt debate\n\nCod dem not the proposal, 14 ver the pay of sterling-peld civil servants at certain ruta af sochasDa asi anked fer KE KEPONIE PODKL Awan takım oy an Ammand-maxi, which was Zen, and the Brages ww carried\n\nPage 14\n\nUnofficial members of the Legislative Council\n\nFor the purpose of balancing the budget\n\nBetween the District Officer, Coast and the inhabitants' bone where he met tarday approved, caution fr North of people—savants, buningan | varying tobaccoena duchas, causing the a patamal degree where exte They reduction affects part of | magsales, lawyers, artista, bazzara | duties on light via and imponing a irritation would have been par- the Army and leave saulker per- and above all the economy of the duty on non-intrecasting latach, donable.

        "content_text": "# LOCAL SPORT REVIEW\n\n## Haymes' Creditable Achievement on the Course\n\nTHE HONG KONG WEEKLY PRESS & \n\nThere was plenty over the last week-end to whet the enthusiastic taste of sports fans. The chief attraction was, of course, at Happy Valley on Saturday, when the Ninth Extra Race Meeting was held, in glorious weather. Of the many race-goers, none can have had more reason to be happy than the lucky holder of ticket No. 37163 in the Kwang-tung Handicap, who had the immense satisfaction of seeing Mr. A. C. Pih bring Plain View in first by a head, to net him the first prize of $31,813.60 in the big Sweepstakes.\n\nOn the cricket field, there was one very fine performance by a new recruit of the Hong Kong Cricket Club, F. Haymes, playing for the Club's second eleven against the Indian Recreation Club, achieved the distinction of taking all ten Indian wickets. Going on first change, he sent down 13.3 overs, five of which were maidens, and had 47 runs hit off him. Six times he hit the stumps and on another occasion, he accepted a hard return from N. Singh when the latter looked like winning the match for the other side. It is true that the batting strength of the Indians in this game was very weak, compared to the days when Sirda Khan, F. M. el Arculli, and M. R. Abbas had charge of the side, but the performance is nevertheless a very fine one and will probably earn for Haymes a trial in senior cricket. On another ground, R. T. Broadbridge gave an exhibition of what was described in certain quarters as a Jessopian piece of hitting. Though the bowling he encountered was comparatively weak, there is no doubt that Broadbridge has improved out of all knowledge in the past few seasons, and his play for the Kowloon Cricket Club this year will be watched with much interest.\n\nOn Sunday, the well-patronised hockey match between the Shanghai Ladies' team and a team from the Central British Association Ladies saw a brilliant come-back by Miss Margaret White. Playing a fast and skilful game, she scored the only goal of the match and was responsible for the Association's victory over a side which, on the run of play, was little inferior.\n\n## October 29, 1937\n\n### O.A.G. AMONG LAWN BOWLERS\n\n#### Saturday's Successful Dinner\n\nHis Excellency the Officer Administering the Government, Mr. N. L. Smith, His Honour the Chief Justice, Sir Athol MacGregor, and Commodore E. B. C. Dicken were among the distinguished guests at the dinner of the Hong Kong Lawn Bowls Association, held in the Roof Garden of the Hong Kong Hotel on Oct. 23.\n\nA large gathering of lawn bowlers were present for the prize distribution and the concert which followed.\n\nFollowing dinner, the Loyal Toast was honoured, after which the president of the Association, Mr. R. Basa, welcomed the guests and remarked that the function brought to a close all the activities under the auspices of the Association. The Interport contest, to which all lawn bowlers had been looking forward, had unfortunately been cancelled owing to Northern trouble, and he was sure he expressed the feeling of all present when he extended sympathy to Northern bowlers in their present ordeal.\n\nThe Craigengower C.C., although finishing second in both the first and second divisions, had the consolation of winning the three open championships of the Colony.\n\n#### H.E.'S SPEECH\n\nHis Excellency, the Officer Administering the Government, said: It is a great honour to have been asked to present the prizes to-day, but I confess that I was a little disturbed when I found that this entailed the making of a speech. What with the Budget and a visit to Macao, I think that the reading public has had more than enough of me during the last few days. But what is more to the point is that I suppose of all the people in this room, I am the least qualified to speak about the noble game which is our concern to-night.\n\nSouth China Athletic Association's senior football team delighted their supporters at Caroline Hill by beating a full side from the Hong Kong Football Association by the odd goal in three. In their fine victory, the Chinese had a lot for which to thank the old \"master,\" Fung King-cheung, who scored one of the goals, was partly responsible for the other, and throughout was a source of worry to the F.A. defence.\n\nI used to play in the early days before I came out East, but I must confess that I have never rolled a bowl in anger in this Colony. That is my own fault, and I hope to be able to overcome it in the years to come if I am admitted to the fellowship. Lawn bowls has the great feature of attuning hand and brain, which is, I suppose, the chief object of all games. Those who run about between goal posts or between wickets, or who stride over the country after a small ball may pretend to despise it, but I should say it is in some ways the chess of ball games, calling for foresight and skill and a steady nerve.\n\nAs a social asset, it is unnecessary for me to praise the bowling green. The faces round this table are surely sufficient evidence of this.\n\nI have great pleasure in supporting the toast of the Association, and I thank you for inviting me here to-night.\n\nMr. C. B. Hosking, Hon. Secretary of the Association, proposed the health of the guests in a witty speech, and Commodore Dicken replied. Sir Atholl MacGregor also spoke.\n\n## \"CLOSING DAY\" AT C.S.C.\n\n\"Closing Day\" at the Civil Service Cricket Club on Saturday saw six rinks in play, the \"visitors\" beating their hosts by 4 shots. After the game, spoons were presented to the guests.\n\n| Team | Players | Score |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| C.S.C.C. | J. R. Pengelly, H. F. Harper, H. Strange, J. Hollidge (Skip) | 21 |\n|  | J.

Dengel)\n\nof the staff necessary to handle immigration, we have followed the negative policy of leaving the immigration restrictions on the statute book and maintaining the entirely theoretical position that permits are still necessary for entry. Guerilla occupation of the country between Hong Kong and Canton, the fact that the railway schedule is greatly curtailed and in-coming trains almost totally reserved for Chinese troops transhipping in Hong Kong, and the shortage of shipping on the West River and in Macau have temporarily saved us. The population was estimated at about 600,000 in early September: it is now near the 750,000 mark, and is approaching one million, at which it is still manageable, provided reasonable supplies are available. There is yet no sign of the restoration of the facilities and conditions which will swamp us. Correspondence is attached to this report which reveals how near the bottom of the barrel we have come with immigration policy. The policy is deplorable but the results are not unsatisfactory.\n\n26.\n\nThe problem of quislings and collaborators in the complicated social pattern of Hong Kong is one of extreme difficulty. A brief note attached to this report records the position. Between thirty and forty suspected collaborationists are under arrest pending completion of investigation. Few substantial citizens of the colony escaped contact with the occupying forces in one form or another: consequently few are free from the besmirchment of rumour and whisper. The result has been hideously embarrassing for an administration seeking to work in cooperation with, and to place maximum responsibility in the hands of, local citizens. Much of the business of conducting local affairs has in times past been conducted through various committees of Chinese: the personnel of these committees, many of them experienced in public business, occupied at least nominal positions of responsibility under the Japanese: it seems certain that a proportion of them behaved very badly, whether or not eventual evidence will justify proceedings under the terms of the directive.\n\n27.\n\nIn these circumstances the administration has necessarily had to maintain an attitude of caution, though in fact Chinese are now occupying judicial and executive posts with responsibilities unknown before the war. The investigation branch of the police, with less than a fifth of its minimum staff requirements, is working very hard to widen the area of choice by scrutinising the records of individuals whose talents qualify them for public office. It is for all concerned a distasteful and sometimes an emotionally distressing business.\n\n28.\n\nNo debate has waxed hotter than that concerning Sir R. Kotewall, former member of Executive Council, and for many years the leading Chinese adviser to the Government of Hong Kong. As with so many other problems in this colony I am sure that we will know with complete certainty in 1947 what we ought to have done in 1945. Sir Robert Kotewall's conduct during enemy occupation has provoked in many quarters accusations and rebuttals of passionate intensity. In my view the only possible official course is to stick with equal passion to the principles of British justice and the letter of the quisling directive. The Kotewall case, which will be debated for years to come, is still under consideration.\n\n29.\n\nIt is increasingly obvious",
