The task is to proofread this text, correcting spelling errors, fixing spacing issues, rejoining broken sentences, and restoring paragraph breaks, all while preserving the original content and format as much as possible.\n\n## Step 2\nFirst, we need to identify and correct spelling errors. For example, \"Wongkong\" should be \"Hongkong\", \"sh. 1000j€rawa\" should be \"sh. 1000\", and \"Brit. bk 670 Dod\" should be \"Brit. bk 670 Dod\" (no change needed here, but \"Brit.\" is an abbreviation for \"British\" which is correct). \"Dut. 764 ric\" should be \"Dut. 764\", and \"Earl of Windeer\" should be \"Earl of Windsor\".\n\n## Step 3\nNext, we need to fix spacing issues. For instance, \"XCR (85)72\" should be \"XCR(85)72\", and \"GR 1178/1922/32 (III)\" should be \"GR1178/1922/32(III)\".\n\n## Step 4\nWe also need to rejoin broken sentences. The text contains many lines that are split due to OCR layout errors. For example, sentences that are broken across lines without a logical reason should be merged.\n\n## Step 5\nRestoring paragraph breaks is another crucial step. The OCR output may have incorrectly merged or split paragraphs. We need to format the text into proper paragraphs based on the content and logical breaks.\n\n## Step 6\nIndicate missing words with \"...\" if a word is clearly missing due to OCR damage.\n\n## Step 7\nThe text should be formatted in standard Markdown. This includes using headers (#, ##, ###), sub-headers, bold-type (**bold**), and tables using Markdown table syntax.\n\n## Step 8\nSince the text is a mix of different documents, including newspaper articles and court transcripts, we need to be careful not to rephrase or rewrite the content. The task is to correct errors and improve formatting without changing the style, tone, or word choice.\n\n## Step 9\nNo translation of text is required, and file references should not have any spacing inside parentheses.\n\n## Step 10\nPage numbering lines, if detected (usually six lines in total, three at the page beginning and three at the end), should be kept as they are, as they were originally used during scanning to delineate page metadata.\n\n## Step 11\nThe output should be in HTML using  for paragraphs and \n only if absolutely necessary.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\n324\n\n25\n\n[NO. 6.

The Jury, a special one, awarded the Plaintiff $1,010, it will be remembered, subject to the Judge's decision on the low point raised by Defendant's Counsel; and our readers, no doubt, are desirous of knowing what has been the result of the matter, and how the disputed point has been arranged. But though, as we have remarked, it is upwards of a month since the trial was reported, from that day to the present we have not heard a word of the threatened kroviment;---so, as the time allowed for the mo time was for some time expired, the verdict of the Jury stands. So much for the verdict whether the award will be forthcoming, or whether we shall obtain even a refund of the costs out of pocket \"are problems the solution of which has yet to be told of \n\nThe Editor of the China Mail, in strictures exhibiting the most extraordinary feeling of sympathy for a suspicious character it has ever been our lot to read, has told the world that, owing to the unjust confinement to which Ah Lum has been subjected, being unable personally to look after his office--he, Ah Lum, is now declared to have become Bankrupt and will have to pass through the Insolvent Court\" and, adds the Editor with an evident hug of gratulation, there will possibly (the italics are ours) be some \"difficulty in recovering the amount of damages.\" Possibly there may--but, at all events, we are placed, by the verdict of one of the most respectable juries ever empanelled in this Colony, in a position to challenge the Insolvent's Balance sheet; and should it be, as we shall not be surprised to find, that Ah Lum's bankruptcy is due as much to his very proper stoppage at business here as to some astounding malversation in the shape of lawyer's fees, or payment of hireling scribes the facts will duly be made patent to the public, and, it will be hoped, produce a salutary effect that the Jury's award will not be altogether lost \n\nThe arrival of the mail prevented the intention of noticing in our last issue a very interesting letter in the Hongkong Register of Tuesday, signed a Catholic Missionary, and of which the intelligent Redacteur of that paper thus remarks.--- \n\nWe publish better from a Roman Catholic Missionary. in reply to some observations by a contemporary as to what ought to be the course of the French in China in his opinion. We don't of course agree with the remarks of our contemporary but we entirely agree with the letter which we publish. Neither the fact nor the spirit are in good taste, and an easy answer could be time to both were worth while which is not. \n\nWhether the letter in question is a reply to our observations--whether it is \"bad taste\" (as one reverend Father disclaims it)--or whether the subject is worth while to notice are all points on which we shall leave our readers to form their own opinions. Here is a translation of such parts of the letter necessary to an understanding of it, and appended is an extract from the speech of His Lordship the Bishop of Victoria, on the 5th of May last, the spirit of which, it rejoices us to find, is entirely in consonance with the honestionsa which May last, the spirit of which, it rejoices us to find, is not our contemporary does not think it worth while to notice. \n\nTranslation, \n\nReferring to the Anglo-French alliance on the China question--the author of the article accuses the French of a desire to impose their religion on Canton by means of bayonets, amusing it (religion) to serve their ambition.\"This alliance so surely desired by Great Britain rests, it is true, on different interests.

        "content_text": "## Proceedings of 8th July continued.\n\nI recollect the apprehension of a man who was charged with stealing a watch from Mr Lapraik. I was examined in the gaol upon a subsequent charge of piracy against the same man. I was examined in the presence of the Acting Colonial Secretary, Mr Caldwell, Mr Inglis, and a Chinese prisoner named Kwan Chan-hee. From circumstances, I imagined the man was accused from dislike between him and Ma-chow Wong and Kwan Chun-hee and this man.\n\nWhen I was examining him, he brought out some pieces of red paper, eight or nine inches long, with Chinese characters, which were interpreted to me by one of the Chinese in the station named Ahee. It was to the effect that Beaver was an American, a very good man, and had been some time in his employ; I kept it for a day or two before producing it by me before Mr Mitchell. I cannot recollect whether Mr Caldwell was there when I told Mr Mitchell of the interpretation I put upon the paper or not. I don't think I told Mr May about the paper while the trial was going on.\n\nIn a day or two after Beaver was remanded, I was sent for by the Acting Colonial Secretary. At about 6 o'clock in the morning I went to the Acting Colonial Secretary's house. He commenced questioning me, as licensing day was coming on, about the Comprador of the steamer.\n\nI know from reference to my chart, that Luy-chow near Hainan is from 8 to 10 miles from the mouth of a river; it stands a little way back from the shore. I have been past, but never in it.\n\n[Read Lyons' evidence concerning his visit to the Gaol to inquire about Beaver and the paper, and Beaver's conversation with himself.]\n\nI agree with nearly every portion of it. Beaver himself told me that he was with Akwai. I was at Boggs's trial.\n\nWhen I came here yesterday, there was a paper shown to me, and I was asked if I knew the character of the different Public-house keepers. After that I saw the paper produced. I do not know what was done with the paper before.\n\nThe steamer was about a mile and a half from the shore. The Elders of the village came on board and made an arrangement with Mr Caldwell for the payment of a sum of money if we could catch these desperadoes, but I do not know the amount. The boat went for the purpose of assisting people belonging to the Elders, and Mr Caldwell went in it. There were four armed men, four men pulling, the second Engineer and the Captain. When Roberts and Lyons asked me these questions, they did not tell me they should want me to give evidence. Yesterday, Roberts told me he had written down what I had said. I told him I thought it very curious, and that if I had seen the paper before, I should not have said anything. The answer I gave was that I had seen a paper written by a friend of mine about a year before; it was relating to the sale of a lorcha.\n\nThe Acting Colonial Secretary then remarked that the prisoner had that paper in his possession, and had given it to Kwan Chun-hee, and that the prisoner was head partner in the purchase of the lorcha. The Acting Colonial Secretary then went on to say that the paper had been given by this prisoner to Kwan Chun-hee within the last few days in Gaol, and that Kwan Chun-hee had given it up to accuse the prisoner.\n\nThe Acting Colonial Secretary then asked me about the searching of the prisoner at the Station, and I said I thought it was impossible he could have been locked up, without any paper which he might have had on his body being found.\n\nRe-examined,--During the time in which I was employed on board the `Eaglet` we never made any prisoners. In the Kulan affair there was loss of life sustained--five of the `Rattler's` and six or eight of the `Powhattan's` men were killed, besides other casualties. The information that the junks captured at St John's were pirates was obtained from the prisoner before his arrest.\n\nThe Acting Colonial Secretary asked me if I had ever seen a fleet of two or three hundred junks which we met on our way to Mameë. I told him I had seen them one time previously, when he was making a charge in the Central Police Station. He then asked me if I could recognise a man named Yik-foo, if I saw him. He then asked me if the prisoner was not Yik-foo, and I said that he was not.\n\nThe Acting Colonial Secretary then sent me round to the Gaol to take another look at the prisoner, and assured me that the prisoner was not Yik-foo. I returned, and told him I was certain he was not Yik-foo. He then asked me, as the prisoner was sick at the time, could his sickness not have altered him, so that I could not recognise him. I assured him he was not Yik-foo, upon which I was dismissed.\n\nA short time afterwards I met the Acting Colonial Secretary at the Central Police Station, and in speaking to him I remarked that I had been told by one of the European prisoners, that the paper had been in Gaol since the conviction of Kwan Chun-hee. I then told him that Kwan Chun-hee had already brought a charge against Tong Akü which had been proved false. The charge against Tong Akü had been convicted.\n\nDr Bridges said that he would see into the matter, that he would inquire amongst the prisoners in the Gaol, and ascertain whether it was as I said with reference to the paper. I again saw the Acting Colonial Secretary upon this matter.\n\nI have seen Passengers coming on board except as a passenger. I have no recollection of seeing any one wearing spectacles coming on board except Lai Sze-kai.\n\nSai I have seen Lai Sze-kai wearing spectacles. I never received any other sum than the $55 either as prize-money or remuneration for extra or dangerous service.\n\n[Lai Sze-kai shewn to witness.]\n\nI remember the apprehension of Beaver; he was apprehended and brought to the Police Station by Mr Caldwell.\n\nWhen I had finished examining him, I told him about this man Beaver, and a case of piracy which I had known, and which had occurred in the previous January. I told him about a gun being purchased on the lorcha, also that the money had not been paid, and an order had been given, I was under the impression at the instance of Ma-chow Wong.\n\nThe pirate who took the lorcha was the brother or brother-in-law of Akwai, and he had an European with him. The Acting Colonial Secretary said he would like very much to see the order; it was for $80. The lorcha came in two days afterwards. I boarded her as she came to an anchor about half-past four or five in the morning. I took the Captain of the lorcha, and Achong, the Chinese owner, up to Dr Bridges's house about 7 o'clock, and they produced a paper which they said was the one to which I alluded. It was only an acknowledgment of having taken a gun worth $70, which they intended to pay for. There was no order on any particular house.\n\nThe paper was then sent together with the first paper found on Beaver's person to Mr Wade to be translated; and the Acting Colonial Secretary told me that as Mr Caldwell had already a charge for confederation with pirates against Beaver, I had better send my witnesses down to him. The witnesses were first sent down to Mr Caldwell, and then went before the Magistrate.\n\nAfter the paper was translated, it was returned to me by Mr Grand-Pré, and after getting it I went before the Magistrate again, with the witnesses, and the paper was again produced before the Assistant Magistrate Mr Mitchell. I do not know whether it was interpreted to him at that time.\n\nThe examination lasted over a space of three weeks, and the paper was taken there every day for examination. The witnesses failed to identify Beaver, and he was sentenced to find security for three months, or quit the colony; he quitted the colony.\n\nThis paper was never to my knowledge in Mr Caldwell's possession. He saw it, but I don't know that he read it at the Police Court. At one time I told him about it.\n\nAfter the investigation was over, Beaver asked for his paper, but Mr Mitchell said that they were to be retained. The last time I saw the paper was at the Magistracy, when he was committed to the Gaol upon not being able to find security. I have not seen it since. I have looked over the papers in the Magistracy, and that document is not attached to the case.\n\nBeaver told me that he had been in the employ of Mr Caldwell and Ma-chow Wong on board a lorcha. If I had not been told, I should not have taken my witnesses to Mr Caldwell.\n\n## MANOEL DA SILVA, Sergeant in the Water Police,-Called and examined.\n\nI remember the apprehension of Po-Pak-Shing on a charge of piracy. I had his boats and family in custody, and believe they, the boat and family, were connected with Ma-chow Wong.",

        "content_text": "Enclosure N. 6.\n\nTHE\n\nHONG KONG TIMES.\n\nHONG KONG, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1875.\n\nPOLICE COURT,\n\nBEFORE JAMES RUSSELL, Esq.\n\nThursday, October 21st, 1875.\n\nEMIGRATION TO ACHERN.\n\nWONG-A-CHEUNG was charged with assaulting the complainant.\n\nPan-young-Kai, a head district watchman belonging to No. 2 District, said that yesterday morning, about seven o'clock, he was walking in First Street just outside of Yu Luk Lane, when he heard a noise, and understood from what he heard, that there was fighting going on; he went up the Lane, to see if it was so, but he saw no fighting but a number of persons making a great noise. About 10 o'clock, he went to the Registrar General's Office, as was his custom, and made a report to Mr. Osmund as Mr. Tounochy was not there. There are a number of houses for emigrants to Acheen in Yu Luk Lane. There are four houses in Yu Luk Lane,-Nos. 3, 5, 8, 10, and they have placards that they are emigration offices, or offices where men can get work. The noise occurred in houses Nos. 3 and 10. He told Mr. Osmund about this, and he (Mr. Osmund) told him that he could have the men arrested if he saw them fighting, and if it was needed, he could get the assistance of the Police from the Station. He went away and about 11 o'clock went to Lai Shek Kai, a special constable attached to the Registrar General's Office, who asked him what he was doing; he said he was going to Yu Luk Lane to make some enquiries concerning a fight in the coolies' houses that morning; he (Lai Shek Kai) said he would go with him, and they went to house No. 10, and asked some coolies who came out of the house, what the noise in the morning was about. Several men came out of the house, and from one of them they understood that they had made an agreement to go to Acheen with the master (by the master, was understood the master of the house) and that the Harbor Master was their security, but since making the agreement they had heard that the committee of the Tung Wah Hospital and an officer belonging to the Registrar General's Office had explained to them that the Harbor Master was not security for them, nor the Government of Hong Kong. The men they saw were carpenters. There were about ten men present during the conversation, one man spoke for the whole of them. The men came out of house No. 10. They said they would not go to Acheen now, and the complainant had told them that if they would not, they would have to pay for their lodging, and meals that they had taken in the house, during their stay. They said that they had not any money to pay with, and that the prisoner had beaten them. He asked where the master was and one of the men called him from house No. 5. A man came out, and they said the prisoner was he, called A-Ken, charged the prisoner with beating him, and said he could not find the police at the time of the assault, but wished him now to be taken to the Station. The man A-Ken had a lump on his face. Witness told the man A-Ken he had better go to the Station, and he and Lai Shek Kai, prisoner, and eight others went to the station. There are three emigration houses in Third Street, two in Wai On Lane, and one in Battery Road. He only saw one house in Yu Luk Lane with Chen Kin Kun on it, and that was No. 3. On the same paper are the words Chen Kin Kun and besides the statement of term of employment. He had not got that paper or a copy of it and he believed it had been torn down. He noticed four houses in Yu Luk Lane for men, and he saw one in Wai On Lane, but did not go to Battery Road. He knew of three houses in Third Street. He knew the prisoner had been living in house No. 8, for a month, but he had no previous knowledge of him. He said that he had not seen any houses in the Colony for emigration for years. He remembered a house, eight or nine years ago, in Wan Chai. Yesterday he saw, in house No. 3, Yu Luk Lane, fifty or sixty men, but some of the houses had sixty or seventy men, whilst others had forty or fifty. The master of the house and his employés had been collecting men for about a month. The men in the houses did nothing.\n\nCheung-a-Keu, a carpenter, said he came to Hong Kong on the 22nd day of the 9th moon, and since that time had had constant employment. In passing down Yu Luk Lane one day, about the middle of September, he saw a paper setting out a statement that men were required to go to Acheen. That paper was on house No. 8. He went in and asked the prisoner, who seemed to be the accountant, how much the pay per month was and the prisoner told him that if he was a carpenter he would get $18 a month, and that he would be secured to go to Acheen and brought back and whilst there receive the before-mentioned wages. He told him that the Harbor Master of this port would sign his name as security and he would have a passage down and back. He said the statement he had made was true, and he had not been \"coached\" as to what he was to say by anyone. He said he knew the Harbor Master was a Government officer. Pang-a-Sau and others of his fellow workmen were with him when he had the conversation with the prisoner. The prisoner told witness he would be at Acheen two months, and witness said that that was too little because after the passage there and back had been paid he would have made no gain. The prisoner then said he would pay the passage down and back. The witness said the time of agreement had better be a year and the prisoner agreed to it. He said he lived in house No. 10, of which the master was How-a-Cheong; he had lived there since the 4th moon of this year and paid rent to the master and got his rice free. But from the 9th instant he had not got his rice at the prisoner's. There were some men in house No. 10 who got rice from prisoner, who had taken their cook and allowed him to have his rice and sleep there. The other men all paid rent to How-A-Cheong. The agreement between prisoner and witness was that he was to go to Acheen and get $18 a month for a year certain and have his passage paid there and back and that the Harbor Master was to be the security. Witness said that had he not been offered the terms mentioned he would not have gone, or rather not have consented to go. On Monday the 18th inst., several Chinese with Mr. Osmund came to make enquiries about the emigration, and he then heard that he had not been secured, and there was no security for the carrying out of the agreement. He heard that the Harbor Master was not security for him and he thereupon made up his mind not to go to Acheen. Yesterday morning he did not get free rice. He passed No. 3, Yu Luk Lane, where the prisoner lived and he (prisoner) came out and asked him if he was going to Acheen or not and the witness replied in the negative, adding that there was not, as he had stated there was, a security; therefore he would not go. Upon hearing this the prisoner struck him a blow in the face, and witness, not wishing to take the law into his own hands, said he would go to Tung Wah Hospital and tell the Committee of the treatment he had received. He knew that some of the Tung Wah people had been making enquiries about the migration. The prisoner told the witness that he should go to Acheen even if he sold him like a pig, and he would have to go; witness was firm in his resolution and said he would not go, come what might. This was about seven o'clock. Witness did not go to the Tung Wah Hospital. Prisoner went into the house and he went to No. 10. Witness said he had omitted to state that the prisoner had told him, on his refusing to fulfil his agreement, that he would have to remit the cost of the provisions he had consumed during his stay in the house, and he said he would not and could not, for he had not the money to do it with. He had not any knowledge of the prisoner until his entrance to the house where the paper was posted up. He was shown a paper of a yellow color with a red stamp on the back the same as produced (marked A). He had not seen any like the white one produced. After the assault when the District Watchman came he told him that he wished to give the prisoner into custody and called him out of the house. Witness said he would go to Acheen now if the Harbor Master would sign the security paper. He did not know if his name was put in the book produced (marked B).\n\nPang-a-Sau, another carpenter and a native of Sun On said he had lived in Hong Kong since last year. He was in Yu Luk Lane, when he was shown a paper posted up on the door of No. 8, the poster intimated that men were wanted for Acheen and he went with the last witness to make enquiries about it. On the 5th or 6th inst., he asked prisoner if he would give him employment at Acheen and he said he would and he asked him his trade; witness answered that he was a carpenter, whereupon the prisoner said he would engage him, give him $18 a month and a passage to Acheen and back and said the Harbor Master would be security. Prisoner said that the engagement was for one year and if during that time he should fall sick he would be placed in Hospital and cured; for witness made arrangements to go on the...\n\nPage 521",

        "content_text": "Junk arriving from Formosa at Hong Kong is free from duty up to 1374. Silver that date they are forced to pay duty according to the Foreign Tariff. Unless the duty is paid beforehand, the junks are examined by the Officials at Fuch-Fan-Chan (the Station at the East End of the Harbour); in addition to the tax, these officials also receive bribes.\n\nThese junks that leave for Formosa also make a payment of duty on Canton goods shipped to Formosa - the amount of which the Hai Kwan claims as Export duty. The West Customs, when goods are leaving Hong Kong, charge about double the duty which he claims upon similar goods shipped at Macao: because the latter is Chinese territory.\n\nThe Customs exacts a higher rate of import duty on native goods being transported than he does for similar goods having China ports for places abroad, e.g., Saigon. The latter pay according to a national Tariff, (which has been obtained with great difficulty, M. Ansell) also rates considerably lower than in the Tientsin tariff.\n\nIt appears also that the interpretation between the Waikar & Grain Commissioner and the Hong merchants reported by B. Robertson (Jr.27 Octofen) never went further & the merchants said that beyond a general idea of the rates of duty, they have no fixed tariff to refer to and pay according to; (or more likely what they wish on certain items).\n\nAmong the Enclosures (No.14) is a memorandum by M. Russell of the rates of duty, as claimed by the Haikwan, and a Tabulated scale (No.6) drawn up by him showing the rates in the national Tariff, taken from the Book of Revenue Regulations, compared with the rates as taken from the traders' books, and consistent with the rates in the Tientsin Tariff.\n\nThe Haikwan seems to impose almost arbitrary taxes. The Native Coasting trade, going to & from most places, is treated with especial severity. It is perfectly clear that the collection of Native Customs is in the same state as that described by Mr. Hart in Parliamentary Paper China No.1, 1865 – page 13, in Reference to the Foreign Customs Inspectorate.\n\nI think this paper should be printed and sent to me bringing the question up to the appointment of the New Haikwan: and the Governor furnished with Confidentially the D.O paper asked for his remarks. I dissent from Sir Brooke Robertson's views.\n\nPage 416",

Depuis conclusion is that \n\nAnnam las \n\nbut \n\ngiven Kothring Signetine \n\na that practically \n\nis more closed. \n\nTham Li \n\nFrety, the Country \n\nThan Ever. \n\n(Sol) Lyon \n\nSAMEDI 2 DÉCEMBRE 1876. \n\nL'ÉCONOMISTE FRANÇAIS. \n\nrait de celte province, au milieu de populations non-set- lement inoffensives, mais sympathiques, et de fonctionnaires dont de nombreux cadeaux fai conciliaient la bonne grâce. Arrivé au Yan-Nan, il y recut le meilleur accueil des mandarins, auxquels il fit voir sans peine dans l'ouverture du fleuve Rouge on moyen de remédier à la mauvaise situation que la guerre civile, d'une part, le défaut de débouchés, de Fautre, avaient faito à leur province. Le Yun-Não est resté jusqu'ici un pays pauvre, I produit cependant assez de vivres pour la nourriture de ses habi- tants, et ses vallées sont très-fertiles; mais, pour les articles industriels, tels que les tissus et les vêtements, il dépend tout à fait des provinces voisines, car on n'y récolte, pour ainsi dire, ni coton ni soie, mais, en échange des marchan- dises qu'il demande, Je Yan-Nan peut offrir, indépendaument de ses thés de qualité supérieure, les riches produits de son sous-sol, For, l'argent, le fer, le cuivre, le plomb, l'étain, le zinc, le mercure, la houille. Toutes ces richesses demeurent par malheur à peu près inexploitées, faute de moyens d'écoulement, les transports par la Chine elle-même étant d'une grande difficulté et d'une lenteur extrême. Le fleuve du Tong-Kin une fois ouvert à une navigation libre et régul- lière, c'est par centaines de millions qu'il faudrait chiffrer la valeur des produits qui prendraient cette voie, pour pénétrer en Chine ou pour en descendre à la mer. \n\nLe moment paraissait d'ailleurs mal choisi pour une tentative de ce genre: la guerre civile était dans toute sa force, et on ne parlait de rien moins que d'abandonner la province aux musulmans. La commission du Mé-Kong y avait même couru un grand danger sans le savoir, celti d'être emprisonnée dans la ville d'Yun-Nän-Sèn, capitale da pasy, qu'elle venait à peine de quitter lorsque les insurgés l'investirent. M. Dupuis prit donc le parti de retourner à Han- Kéou et d'y attendre une heure plus propice, et pour la hater en tant qu'il dépendait de lui, il expédia aux troupes imperiales une grande quantité d'armes perfectionnées, parmi lesquelles des canons rayés de fabrique française, qu'accompagnaient des Européens chargés d'en enseigner lé maniement aux Chinois. Mais, en 1870, voyant que la guerre menaçait de s'éterniser, il n'y tint plus et gagna de nouveau le Yun-Nau par la voie du Yang Tse-Kiang, bien décidé cette fois à pousser à tout hasard jusqu'au fleuve Rouge. \n\nNotre compatriote y retrouva les autorités dans les mêmes bonnes dispositions où il les avait laissées: elles lui don- nèrent des lettres de recommandation pour divers chels qu'il devait rencontrer en chemin, et, se dirigeant au sud-ouest, il se mit en route. A Tong-keou, le maréchal Ma, qui assiégeait cette ville, lui donna une escorte de treute hommes commandée par un mandarin militaire, auquel il adjoignit un inandarin civil, Arrivée à Mout-Ze, cette escorte refusa de le suivre plus loin, mais les auto rités lui en fournirent une seconde et il s'avanca resold- ment vers la haute vallée du Song-Koi, malgré les bruits peu encourageants qui circulaient sur les tribus indépen- dantes de cette vallée. Mais, près de franchir les bautes crêtes qui l'en séparaient, il fut de nouveau délaissé par son escorte, pen désireuse de s'engager dans une région que les habitants des plateaux tiennent pour être très-insa- lubre, et ce ne fut pas sans beaucoup de dangers, de ta- tigues et de privations de toutes sortes que le couragenx voyageur atteignit le Hong-Kiang, ou fleuve Rouge, nom que la grande artère fluviale du Tong-Kin porte en Chine ou sur le territoire des tribos indépendantes, et qu'il doit à la couleur de ses eaux. Il le descendit jusqu'à Kouen-Ce, premier poste amamite, et comme on ne l'aurait pas laissé le franchir, il dat borner là son exploration. Aussi bien pouvait-il considérer son but principal comme atteint: il avait, en effet, acquis la certitude qu'à partir du point où il était arrivé, le fleuve ne présentait pas d'obstacles à la navigation jusqu'à la mer. La voie nouvelle présentait sur celle de Bhâm l'avantage de pouvoir être utilisée de suite sans aucuns travaux; elle répondait aux besoins commer- ciaux, non-seulement des provinces chinoises de Yun-Nan, de Sze-Tchuen, de Kouci-Tcheou, de Kouang-Si, mais -encore da Tibet, du Laos, du Tong-Kin, et ouvrait de belles perspectives au commerce du monde entier, mais surtout à celui de la France. \n\nDe retour au fun-Nâu, l'intrépide explorateur y reçut des mandarins le meilleur accueil, et tous lui manifestèrent un vif désir de voir le fleuve Rouge s'ouvrir au commerce de leur province. Le royaume d'Angam étant tributaire du Céleste-Empire, les Chinois avaient déjà le privilége de commercer avec le Tong-Kin, et il semblait aux autorités de Yun-Nâu qu'elles étaient d'autant plus fondées à réclamer la libre circulation sur le Song-Koi, que ce cours d'eau y a \n\nses sources et sa vallée supérieure. Elles donnèrent done à M. Dupuis des pouvoirs en règle qui lui permettaient d'organiser une expédition, et grâce auxquels il espérait ve- nie à bout de sa tâche sans trop de peine. Il fallait bien envisager cependant l'hypothèse où les Annamites lui re- fuseraient obstinément un libre passage et où il faudrait recourir à la force pour se le frayer. Mais cetto perspective laissait M. Dupuis sans grande inquietude. Les renseigne- ments qu'il avait recueillis durant ses excursions parmi les tribus sauvages du Tong-Kin nord occidental ne lui avaient pas communiqué une haute idée du courage des Annamites. Voyez, lui avait dit un des chefs montagnards, voyez mes » homines; ils n'ont que des lances, et cependant une > centaine d'eux font fuir un millier d'Annamites. Ils fuient » à toutes jambes et ce n'est qu'en embuscade qu'il offrent quelque résistance. » Ce dire avait bien paru à M. Da- puis quelque peu vantard; mais il avait eu depuis l'occa sion de le contrôler, et il en avait reconnu toute l'exacti- lude. \n\nAvant de se lancer dans son entreprise, il jugea opportun de se rendre en France, et c'est là que nous le retrouvons eu 1872. Il avoue sans détour que les personnes auxquelles il s'ouvrit de ses projets lui tinrent un langage tres-découra- geant. Elles lui dépeignaient avec force la mauvaise foi et la cruauté bien connues des mandarins annamites; elles lui représentaient le Tong-Kin en proie à la guerre civile, le pays très-montagneux, le fleuve très-encaissé et la facilité avec laquelle on pouvait en intercepter la navigation, ainsi que les Chinois l'avaient fait jadis pour le Pei-Ho; elles lui ontraient enfin son einbouchure occupée par des troupes de pirates, bien décidés à n'y laisser pénétrer personne. Le propre des convictions robustes est d'avoir réponse à tout, et aucune objection n'était capable de refroidir l'ar- deur de M. Dupuis, son enthousiasme même : « Voyez, » répliquait-il, ce que les Anglais savent faire dans des \n\n• circonstances moins favorables que les miennes; il fant » de la persévérance, un peu d'énergie, et c'est tout. Il était très-désireux néanmoins de se concilier l'appui, au moins moral, de son pays; et c'est à cette fin qu'il fit des dé- marchies près du ministère de la marine. L'accneil qu'il en reçut fat, il le reconnait, des plus bienveillants; mais on ne lui cacha point que, dans les circonstances actuelles, la France ne pouvait faire que des veux pour son succes. On ferait officicusement pour lui tout ce qu'on pourrait, mais sans s'engager. C'était à lui de se frayer un passage à sos risques et périls, et si un sort funeste devait mal- heureusement lui échoir, oa n'interviendrait pas pour venger sa mort ou celle de ses compagnons. \n\nLe 14 avril 1872, M. Dupuis quittait la France, ot, le 15 mai suivant, il prenait terre à Saigon, où le général d'Arbaud, gouverneur par intérim, le recut fort bien, et d'où il repartit bientôt pour se rendre à Shang-Hai et y procéder aux derniers préparatifs de son expédition. Revenu à Saigon, le 12 septembre, il y anodifia ses in- tentions premières qui avaient été d'abord de se faire con- duire à Hae, capitale de l'Annam, sous la protection du pavillon français, et il prit le parti de gagner directement avec ses gens, le goile du Tong-Kin. Il fut toutefois con- venu entre lui et le gouverneur qu'un vapeur francais croiserait, à tout événement, dans les parages de Hai-Phong, où l'expédition devait rallier. Elle se composait de deux canonnières à vapeur, d'une chaloupe à vapeur, d'une grande jonque, auxquelles un bateau à roues s'adjoignit plus tard, et que montaient 150 hommes, dont 25 Européens et le restant Malais, Chinois, Manillais. Pour l'équiper et pour Farmer, M. Dupuis avait dù engager toute sa fortune et faire, à part une certaine somme qui fut versée entre ses mains par les autorités de Yun-tan, Lous les premiers frais de l'entreprise. Mais une convention en règle lui as surait 10,000 piculs d'étain, calculés à forfait sur le picd de 100 francs chacun; il devait, en outre, vendre pour le compte des mandarins et à valoir sur ses propres dépenses, 12,000 autres piculs de cuivre; on lui promettait enfin une large part dans l'exploitation des mines; le tout, en somme, constituant des conditions tris-avantageuses, comme il en convient lui-même. \n\nLe 8 novembre 1872, l'expédition mouillait près de llaï- Phong, et y trouvait l'aviso le Bourayne, commandant Senez, que le général d'Arbaud, lidèle à sa promesse, avait dépêché Pour lui faciliter l'entrée du Song-Koi. Le delta de ce fleuve est uu immense dépôt d'alluvions formées par les détritus qu'il entraîne à l'époque de ses hautes eaux, et le littoral est si bas qu'il est très-difficile d'en reconnaître les bouches, outre que de nombreux hauts-fonds rendent cette opéra- tion périlleuse. M. Dupuis l'éprouva lui-même, ca essayant de pénétrer tour à tour par celles de ces bouches qui por- \n\n7001 \n\n315",

The third master, Mr. GAIR, obtained leave of absence on account of the delicate state of his health, and, I regret to say, he died in Japan. Mr. GAIR was for a long time in the public service of the Colony. He was an Inspector of Police previous to his connection with the Central School. Before joining our Police force he was a school-master in Scotland, and when he was promoted to the important post of third master in this school, I believe I am justified in saying, in the presence of Mr. STEWART and those who knew him well, that he was an able assistant to the Head Master, that he gave the utmost satisfaction to Mr. STEWART and the pupils who came in contact with him. Whilst, therefore, I am bound to express publicly my great regret at his loss, I have at all events the satisfaction of recording the fact that the Government have been able to obtain the assistance of a competent gentleman to take his place, and I may say in passing, that on a recent visit to this school I was much pleased to see how admirably Mr. FALCONER, the second master in the school, Mr. BALL, and Mr. PIERCY assisted Mr. STEWART. When you think of the large number of pupils in this school, you will appreciate the responsibility of Mr. STEWART and the other gentlemen who are entrusted with the management of this institution. What I saw in the school and what I have read of the previous reports of Mr. STEWART and of the progress of the school, all convince me that a change is necessary in the management of this institution in the direction of giving more leisure to Mr. STEWART to attend to the higher duties of inspector of schools. (Applause). I think we are exacting from Mr. STEWART more than any one man, no matter how accomplished and able he may be, can perform in asking him to be not only the inspector of all our schools, but also to retain the post of Head Master in this school. I believe that if Mr. STEWART were to take the position of inspector of schools, maintaining of course in that position a proper supervision over this school, he would be able to give the whole educational scheme of the Colony a closer attention than he is at present able to bestow upon it. It does not do for us if we happen to have a very good officer to overwork him; with the growth, the steady but yet rapid growth, of this school, the work of Mr. STEWART must have grown in proportion, and the time has come when, I think, I may fairly consider whether or not some change should be made of the nature I have indicated. Of course, as you are aware, whatever change I think it necessary to recommend, it will be my duty to report to Her Majesty's Government, but, knowing what the services of Mr. STEWART have been to the school, I believe the Secretary of State would favourably entertain any recommendation in that direction by the Governor of the Colony.\n\nPerhaps I may take this opportunity of saying a word or two to the students who are present on a subject which at one time attracted a good deal of my attention and which, close as we are to China, is not an inappropriate subject in addressing an audience such as this. You are all aware that the Government of the Great Empire close to us relies for obtaining its official element upon a system of open competitive examination, established now for many centuries in China, and you are also aware that some of the countries in Europe—I will not say following the example of China, but certainly treading in the footsteps of China—have established also a system of open competitive examination for appointments in the civil service. Now one of my predecessors, many, many years ago, in writing to the Secretary of State, expressed his opinion that the Government of China was able to conduct the administration of China—of that vast empire stretching down from Peking to Canton—was able to conduct that government from Peking mainly by reason of this system of open competitive examinations, and by relying on certain great moral principles, such as parental authority, which that government at all times enforces. Not long since, when paying a flying visit to Canton, I was shown by Archdeacon GRAY the examination halls in that city. As well as I remember, he told me that at the last examination there were three thousand candidates, and there were very few more than one hundred of these three thousand that were to obtain the degrees; that is, there were few more than one hundred degrees to be given. The result was that during the two or three days the examination lasted the intellectual struggle between these three or four thousand students was very great. The names of the hundred who passed were recorded, and from time to time, as vacancies occurred in the public service of China, they obtained appointments, and in that way some of the most powerful mandarins in China have obtained the public offices they hold. Now the question occurred to me when I arrived in this Colony, would it be possible for me to do anything in that direction here? And perhaps you will excuse me if I refer to the personal reminiscence that some years ago, in the House of Commons, I made a motion for a committee to ascertain whether it was possible to throw open to public competition the whole of the appointments of the civil service in England. We had a debate upon that subject. Lord PALMERSTON, no doubt a very wise statesman, though perhaps on that occasion in the wrong, opposed my motion.\n\nThe House of Commons, however, supported me; I had the satisfaction so far of defeating the Ministry. My committee was appointed and that committee recommended that the civil service of England should be thrown open to free public competition. It came to pass a few years later, in 1870, that Mr. GLADSTONE, who was then the Prime Minister of England, by an Order in Council carried into effect the recommendation of that committee, and I had the great satisfaction of receiving from him a letter which he acquainted me with what he had done, and he was pleased to say that he had all along sympathised with my efforts to throw open the civil service of the United Kingdom to public competition. And at this moment, if a clerkship is vacant in the Colonial Office, in the Board of Admiralty, or in any of the great departments of the State (with one exception), any young man in England, Ireland, or Scotland, without any favour or patronage, can compete for the appointment. And what is the result? I am told by the heads of the departments in England—the Secretary of the Treasury has...\n\nHis EXCELLENCY said:-Ladies and gentlemen, it becomes my pleasing duty to congratulate my friend Mr. STEWART, on the number of scholars who are here to-day. On one of the last occasions I appeared in public in Hongkong—it was at a concert—I saw that the hall in which the concert was held was but half filled. Well, Mr. STEWART cannot complain to-day that this spacious hall is only half-filled; indeed, on the contrary, the hall in this school, though very spacious, is not, on an occasion like this, large enough to contain, I may say, one half of the pupils who are in attendance throughout the year. I suppose the number of pupils who are sitting before me amounts to something like two hundred and fifty or three hundred. The total number of scholars attending this school during the year 1877 amounted to six hundred and ten and at this moment there are four hundred and thirty-three boys in attendance at the Central School, so that a considerable number of the pupils are not now inside this room. So far, therefore, Mr. STEWART has no cause of complaint as to the attendance at the school; and, I may add, it is not only to-day very large, but, I believe, I am right in saying that in the history of the school it has never been so large as it is to-day. Mr. STEWART now tells me it is larger than it has ever been before. The daily average attendance, which after all is the real test of the working of a school so far as the attendance is concerned, was this year four hundred and thirty-one, being considerably in excess of that of the previous year. But whilst I congratulate Mr. STEWART on that important fact, I must condole with him and the scholars upon the loss that this institution...",

The only case in which he interfered was that of Ip Ayow, a little boy who stole a look at the Reformatory and was told he would be flogged if he did not confess the theft, whereupon he confessed the theft and was sentenced to be flogged. The Governor declined to allow that part of the sentence to be carried out.\n\nOf the five prisoners sentenced to be publicly flogged with the cat on the back by Mr John Smale, the Governor allowed the first two to be so flogged, but on discovering the extent of the physical injury that had been inflicted, and on getting a report from the Colonial Surgeon against flogging Chinese on the back, he asked Sir John Smale to pass in future sentences of flogging in such a form as the Colonial Surgeon could certify might be carried out, that is with a rattan on the breech. Sir John declined to do this. Thereupon, Hennessy referred the next case to the Attorney General, to advise whether he could alter the sentence to meet the Colonial Surgeon's certificate, but the Attorney General said the Governor could not alter either the place (the back) or the instrument (the cat) specified by Sir John Smale, and that he could only exercise his prerogative of remitting the flogging in toto; and as no flogging can take place without the Colonial Surgeon's certificate, and as the Governor agreed with the Colonial Surgeon, the floggings on three of those sentenced by Sir John Smale had to be remitted.\n\nThe three prisoners sentenced to be flogged by the Acting Chief Justice Mr Snowden were duly flogged. In one of these cases a delay of some days occurred owing to the absence of the Colonial Surgeon's certificate when the papers were laid before the Governor, and this was explained by the fact that Mr Snowden had forgotten to specify that the flogging was to be with a rattan on the breech. On the papers being returned to him, he explained that it was by an oversight this was omitted, and thereupon the Colonial Surgeon appended his certificate, and the Governor allowed the flogging.\n\nOf the twenty-four flogging sentences passed by the Superintendent or Visiting Justices of the Gaol, Sir Hennessy allowed twenty-two to be carried out. One case he referred back to the Visiting Justices for their reconsideration, when they themselves withdrew the sentence of flogging on the ground that the prisoner had been ordered to do shot drill when on penal diet, which was a breach of rule and of the instructions from Her Majesty's Government; and one other case he investigated himself with the Visiting Justices and the Colonial Surgeon, when it was discovered that one of the arms of a prisoner who had objected to crank labour was quite withered from an old wound, the elbow joint and one finger permanently fixed, and that he had been just subjected to punishments in prison which the Attorney General reported were not lawful. In this case the prisoner was ordered to do another kind of hard labour such as the Colonial Surgeon could certify he was physically capable of doing, and, as he obeyed this order, the flogging was remitted.\n\nT.

        "content_text": "# The Daily Press\n\n## HONGKONG, MAY 13TH, 1879\n\n### DEPARTURE OF GENERAL GRANT\n\nAt ten o'clock yesterday morning a deputation from the Chinese community, consisting of Messrs. Ng Choy, Leung On, Fang Tang, Hop Koe, Ho Amei, Lee Sing, and Chong Tsin Yeong, waited upon General Grant at Government House, to present him with an address previous to his departure.\n\nHis Excellency the Governor introduced the deputation to General Grant, and the Hon. A. E. Bois, Colonel Mosby, and Major Palmer, A.D.C., were also present.\n\nMr. Ng Choy, who had been deputed to present the address, began by saying a few words regretting that, owing to the time necessarily taken in preparing it, they had been unable to wait sooner upon the General for the purpose of presentation. He then handed him the address and read the translation of it, as follows:-\n\n**(Translation)**\n\nTo General Ulysses S. Grant, late President of the United States of America and Commander-in-Chief of the United States Army.\n\nOn the occasion of your honouring Hongkong with your presence we, the undersigned, on behalf of the Chinese Community, approach you to give you a hearty welcome and beg to present to you an address expressive of our high esteem and respect for you.\n\nDuring your Presidency, your great name and noble qualities were well known far and wide, and by the carrying out of laws and respect from you commanded admiration from all classes of people under your rule, we have been delighted to learn that in international questions you have shown a spirit of impartiality and fairness, treating Americans and Foreigners alike, and the Chinese who have been trading in the United States have sung, and continue to sing, praises of the many good actions done by you while in office. We had longed to see you, but being far away we were hitherto not permitted to realize our wish. Now that you have honoured us with a visit, we avail ourselves of the opportunity to present you with a scroll inscribed with these four words \"Benefit to Chinese People\" which we hope may serve as a souvenir of your interview with the Chinese Community of Hongkong.\n\nNg Choy  \nO Man Chai  \nKwok Aubeong  \nChing Sing Yeong  \nWong Kwau Tong  \nLoong On  \nKon Moon Walt  \nChum Sui Shug  \nSee mee Sang Kai  \ning Sart Yeong  \nYo Wni San  \nPan Fong Poo  \nPow Chung Hung  \nCha Sit Chuen  \nPoon Chi Kai  \nLee Sing  \nHo Amei  \nLeo Tuck Chong  \nFung Tang  \nChow Shing Lam  \nTung Ting Kam  \nLoo Lai Pang  \nWong Yu Yee  \nLee Pun Chee  \nSay Yeon Man  \nMing Koo  \nTung Tack Chan  \nLai Hong Chunan Yuen  \nCheong Wing  \nWing Mow Cheong  \nChong Woo Chan  \nLong Cheong Chan  \nWing Cheong Chan  \nYa Sang Cheong  \nMee Fook  \nMesa Cheong Wo  \nKwan Choong Lung  \nTeu Cheong Lang  \nKwong Lee Cheong  \nWing Cheong Phing  \nTon Hing Lung  \nKwong Man Fung  \nChun Wing...

It will be kept by me as a pleasing memento of the Chinese community of Hongkong. In other colonies during my recent travels I have also met countrymen of yours, and I have found the rulers of those colonies recognising your good qualities of frugality, industry, and enterprise. Such qualities go far to account for the prosperous condition in which I see you all here. I am now leaving Hongkong to visit your country, and I am sure I shall see much that will be very interesting to me. For this handsome address I must again thank you most sincerely, and I shall never forget the kindness shown to me by the people here. I wish that prosperity may continue to be enjoyed by you.\n\nAt the request of His Excellency the Governor, Mr. Ng Choy introduced the other members of the deputation to the General.\n\nThe deputation then withdrew. The address, which was sixteen feet long by four feet wide, an extremely handsome scroll, was embroidered in gold on a strip of crimson satin about ten feet long, with a rich deep border, exquisitely embroidered. The characters are written in Chinese. On the top of the scroll is written the address, on the right side is General Grant's name in Chinese, and on the opposite side are the signatures. In the centre are four large Chinese characters, viz:- \"Wai Kap Wa Man\" (Benefit to Chinese people.) The scroll was packed in a teak wood box.\n\nIn response to the invitation of His Excellency the Governor, the officials, naval, military, and civil, as well as a large number of the general community, assembled shortly before eleven o'clock a.m. at Murray Pier to see General Grant and party embark for the U.S.S. Ashuelot. There were present the Chief Justice (Sir John Smale), His Excellency Major-General Donovan; Commodore Smith; the Hon. W. H. Marsh, Colonial Secretary; Hon. J. Russell, Attorney-General; Hon. M. S. Tonnochy, Acting-Colonial Treasurer; Hon. J. M. Price, Surveyor-General; Hon. P. Ryrie, Hon. W. Keswick, and Hon. H. B. Gibb, Members of the Legislative Council; the Acting Puisne Judge; Hon. C. B. Plunket; Colonel Geddes, 27th Regiment; Colonel Sherwin-ton, Assistant Commissary-General; Colonel Moore, Commissary-General of Ordnance; Colonel Mosby, U. S. Consul; Mr. Taro Ando, Japanese Consul; Captain Kasama, H.I.J.M. corvette Nissin; a good sprinkling of naval and military officers and a number of the residents. The police, under Captain-Superintendent Deane, lined the road from Government House to the pier, upon which was drawn up a company of the 27th Inniskillings with their colours and band. Punctually at eleven o'clock the General and his party, with His Excellency the Governor and Mrs. Hennessy, arrived at Murray Pier, when General Grant gave his arm to Mrs. Hennessy while the Governor escorted Mrs. Grant to the head of the pier. The guard of honour presented arms, and the band played as they passed. Arrived at the steps, the General and his party exchanged adieux with those present, and as they stepped into the Government launch Mr. Hennessy called for three cheers for General Grant, which invitation was warmly responded to, and one cheer more for Mrs. Grant added. His Excellency the Governor, Mrs. Hennessy, Colonel Mosby, Major Palmer, R.E., A.D.C., and Dy. Paymaster Eastlake accompanied the party to the Ashuelot. As the launch steamed away from the pier the band of the 27th played their Farewell March to Gosport, which included \"Over the Sea\" and \"Good bye, Sweetheart.\" On passing the Spanish gunboat Marques del Duero, and the German corvette Luise, the marines on both vessels were drawn up and saluted the launch, the band on the Luise playing \"Hail Columbia.\" Captain Mortimer L. Johnson, the new commander of the Ashuelot, received the General and party on board and conducted them to the hurricane deck, where there were in waiting Mr. and Mrs. Forbes, Admiral Polo (Spanish Navy), Captain Sobering (H.I.G.M. Navy), Dr. Von der Horck, and Mrs. Eastlake. After the final farewells had been taken, the Governor, Mrs. Hennessy, Colonel Mosby, and Major Palmer left in the Government launch. On His Excellency leaving the Ashuelot he was saluted by that vessel. The Ashuelot shortly afterwards left for Swatow.\n\nMr. Afong, the photographer, has taken an excellent view of the embarkation.\n\nPage 338",

        "content_text": "## 180\n\nI \n\nLiterature. If we have a number of pupils here who understand English thoroughly, these young men growing up as British subjects will certainly be as much entitled as any persons in this community to take a part in our public affairs and to attain to any position as mercantile men or as officials that any citizen of Hongkong can aspire to.\n\nOf course you are all aware that the number of British subjects in this Colony is now limited to those who have been born under the British flag. This Colony, unlike other Colonies of Her Majesty's empire, has no naturalisation Ordinance, but it has been represented to me by some of the fathers of these boys, that is, by some of the leading Portuguese, and by others in Hongkong, that it would be desirable to have a naturalisation Ordinance. Their views have been laid by me before Her Majesty's Government; and, in a few months perhaps I shall be able to say whether or not it will be possible for them to become naturalised British subjects. It was, indeed, in this school, two years ago, that the idea of reviving our Volunteer movement was first adverted to, and I now see present a good many gentlemen connected with that movement, one of them an English gentleman, Mr. Justice **FRANCIS**, who has always been interested in this school and who was recommended to me for a Captain's Commission by the suffrages of his brother Volunteers. No doubt there are some here who cannot yet take part in the movement, whatever interest they may feel in the Colony, because they are not British subjects, but I am sure they share with their children and friends loyalty to the Crown.\n\nI congratulate the Christian Brothers on the success of this their first examination under the grant-in-aid scheme. With the exception of what I have mentioned about English Composition, the report of the Examiner has been most satisfactory. I have no doubt that, next year when I may have the pleasure of distributing prizes here, I shall be able to notice an improvement in that important branch of education.\n\nThis is now, I think, the third or fourth time within the last two or three months that it has fallen to my lot to say a few words at schools or in connection with schools in this Colony. Not long since, an Honourable friend of mine who is present (the Honourable P. **RYRIE**), Dr. **ERTEL**, myself, and others assembled at St. Paul's College to assist in inaugurating a high-class Church of England and Protestant school which will be principally for European boys. That school, I am happy to say, has been well opened, and it will prove, I believe, a success. Last week I had the satisfaction of presiding at the distribution of prizes at the Central School; and it was only a day or two ago that, accompanied by my friend Dr. **ERTEL**, I met twenty-six teachers of our other Government schools, when prizes were given to the children of twenty-nine schools, and rewards to the most efficient teachers. On that occasion I found the interesting fact that in one native school where the Government allowed it to be optional whether the boys should learn English or Chinese, they all being Chinese, out of about sixty-one attending the school it ultimately turned out that in the cases of sixty, the parents elected that the boys should learn nothing but English. They thought that as far as Chinese went, their children would learn enough of it at home, and they felt the great object of sending their boys to a Government School was to have them learn English. I had much pleasure in examining some of those boys. I found them able to speak English pretty well; they were evidently making steady progress. Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, the state of education in the Colony is briefly this, that Her Majesty's Government have sanctioned a modification of the grant-in-aid scheme under which all classes and all denominations can now obtain the benefit of it.\n\nAll classes have now come under it. The chief education difficulty that I found existing here on my arrival has been set at rest by Sir **MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH**'s wise decision. What seemed to me to be another grave defect in the Government scheme of public instructions in Hongkong - too much Chinese teaching and too little English teaching - is being gradually removed. I believe the scheme as it is now worked is a popular and useful scheme and will, in time to come, give a sound English education to the youth of this Colony.--(Applause.)\n\nAnother address, thanking His Excellency and the visitors for the interest they evinced in the school, was then read by Master G. **JORGE**.\n\nMr. **BELILIOS** then said - Your Excellency and your Lordship, - I am highly gratified and I feel greatly obliged to you for the encomiums you have thought fit to bestow upon me, but I think I scarcely deserve or merit them, as in my belief I have done nothing more than what any citizen is in duty bound to do for his fellow-inhabitants. I can only hope that men of means and capacious hearts will come forward to back up the little beginning I have made by helping to augment my little contribution and thus create material support for advancement of learning in the Colony-(Applause.) Ladies and gentlemen, when I came here to-day I hardly expected that I should be called upon to address you on the subject now before us. The praise lavished on me has compelled me to speak, and I cannot allow this opportunity to pass without stating a few facts connected with the advantages this institution has conferred on the community. I landed in the island in the year 1862. The firm with whom I stayed for a short time had preceded me by a few months. On their way to China they were told there was a dearth of clerks here, and they therefore thought it prudent to bring along a Portuguese assistant with them from Singapore. This gentleman left the house after the lapse of a few months, thus constraining the firm in question to again import another young man from Penang. When I commenced business operations on my own account I engaged a Portuguese clerk at $75 per month. This young man was a copyist, a mere drawer of figures and letters. He was more a nuisance than a help to me. In the busiest of times, whenever it was found necessary to put a few words of English together, he would come to me and ask me to draft them out for him. He did nothing but some landing and shipping for me. Of course the older houses had their staff of Englishmen from Oxford and Cambridge, drawing large salaries, but the minor ones had to content themselves by having an hour or two of attendance from two old gentlemen who made a living by going about distributing their leisure hours at their disposal on several small houses here. Times have altered now, and competent young men may be found who are prepared to occupy berths at small salaries, consequently almost every merchant's establishment and every store can boast of a clerk. I have a staff of Portuguese clerks, and I am very much pleased with them. They are steady, attentive, and painstaking, and I suppose I cannot replace them by a set of better men. To whom is all this due? I maintain it is owing to the exertions of the Christian Brothers and to the existence of the St. Joseph's College. The older firms are commencing to employ them and they are finding situations in banks. I have no doubt that the time is not far distant when it will be found necessary to employ them generally. In landing this place of learning I do not mean to detract one single iota from the importance of the sister institution, the Central School. On the contrary, I contend that if this has done much, the other is destined to do still more for the island. This school deals with a section of the community, whilst the other deals with the mass of the population. I dare say the time will come, when a staff of Portuguese clerks and a European at their head, and, later on, a staff of Chinese clerks and a Portuguese at their head, will be capable of conducting large business establishments satisfactorily. When commerce and trade fail to afford large profits, it becomes imperative to retrench expenditure. In the principal cities of India, if you were to walk into large establishments you will see nothing but swarthy faces and turbaned heads hard at work, with perhaps one Englishman or one Eurasian to direct them. On inquiry as to salaries, you will be told that they range in rupees between the equivalents of ten to a hundred dollars. Education has done this for Indian, and education is certain to do the same for China. Men of business in future will have to be grateful to the managers of these two institutions for the benefits they will then enjoy. -(Applause)\n\nThe National Anthem was then played and the proceedings terminated.\n\n## GOVERNMENT CENTRAL SCHOOL\n\nThe following is the list of the prizes referred to in the last Government Gazette as having been distributed by His Excellency the Governor on the 30th of January, 1880:\n\n| NAME | PRIZE | DONOR |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Lau Ho | Morrison Scholarship | Morrison Trustees |\n| **SPECIAL PRIZES** |  |  |\n| Best Scholar |  | Mr. Jackson |\n| Translation |  | Hon.

        "content_text": "I note that there is some difficulty as to their designation. The Attorney General is of opinion that legally there cannot be two Deputy Registrars. This being so, it may be necessary to pass a short Ordinance to meet the difficulty, as the Judges appear to think that two such officers, by whatever title they may be designated, are indispensable. With regard to Mr. Barff, I gave instructions that he should cease to be Accountant on the 30th November last, but Mr. Gibbons' proceedings and subsequent suspension rendered it necessary for me to prolong Mr. Barff's employment. The Judges assure me that Mr. Barff's services as temporary accountant have been of great assistance to the Court.\n\n8. Mr. Justice Snowden, whom I have consulted as to the necessity for an Assistant Interpreter and a Clerk to the Registrar, is strongly of opinion that an Assistant Interpreter and a Clerk are absolutely necessary; I agree with him.\n\n9. When both Judges sit in different Courts at the same time, as is frequently the case, two Interpreters are required. So necessary are they that, some years ago, Mr. Snowden had to insist on the Chinese Clerk and Translator, Mr. Chan Jai Kwong, giving up the Office of Coroner's Interpreter, as it interfered with the services Mr. Snowden required of him.

One of the most urgent wants of the Supreme Court is an Interpreter for the Swatow and Amoy dialects. Mr. Li Hongmi is a competent interpreter in these two dialects; and his knowledge of English and of Chinese will enable him to translate all the ordinary routine documents connected with the business of the Court. I propose that his salary should be $1800 a year.\n\n13.\n\nTo complete the interpretorial staff of the Court an Interpreter of Hindostani and Bengali is urgently required. I have accordingly restored that office, which has been vacant since 1873. The salary formerly attached to it was $300 per annum, and I do not propose increasing it, as Mr McBean, whom I have appointed provisionally and subject to Your Lordship's approval, holds the post of Bailiff and Assistant Usher, for which he receives a salary of $400 a year, besides fees, which amount on average to about $60 a month. This would make his total emoluments equal to $1020 per annum.\n\n14.\n\nI shall be glad if Your Lordship will allow me to increase the salary of Mr. Chan Jai-",

        "content_text": "It appeared to me that 4th defendant, being a well-to-do woman and having no children of her own, had purchased the girl with a view to adopting her as a daughter in the belief that she did so with the father's sanction.\n\n11th June, 1879.\n\n(Signed,) C. V. CREAGH,\n\nActing Police Magistrate.\n\nWhen Acting Captain Superintendent of Police last year, I wished to prosecute a man for detaining a child under this Ordinance, but as it was shewn that the boy had been sold by his father some months previously, the Attorney General (Mr. PHILLIPPO) considered that the purchaser was in loco parentis and could not be punished.\n\nC. V. CREAGH,\n\nActing Police Magistrate.\n\n11th June, 1879.\n\n(Signed,)\n\nMINUTE BY THE ACTING ATTORNEY GENERAL ON C.S.O.1606 of 1879.\n\nI handed these papers to the Crown Solicitor with instructions to see what evidence is forthcoming and I beg to enclose his report.\n\nWith the greatest respect for the Chief Justice I doubt the policy of prosecuting the woman he refers to, having regard to the fact that the Magistrate had discharged her for want of testimony, and looking to his further report. The Magistrate should always be supported when it is possible, and if he discharged the woman and put her in the box as a witness and she was used again at the Supreme Court, it might look like a breach of good faith to treat her now as a criminal.\n\nThe other two women I could see less reason for discharging, and I think perhaps should have had them charged, but I felt that that would be a grave slight on the Magistrate.\n\nAs to the druggist's case I think that the only thing that can be said is that it would look to be a breach of faith to proceed against him now.\n\nThe Chief Justice reprimanded all the parties very severely when passing sentence on the others, and I think they were so frightened that they will not engage in such acts again. However in this case I am quite ready to sink my own opinion, and prosecute if it is deemed politic.\n\n5th July, 1879.\n\n(Signed,) J. RUSSELL,\n\nActing Attorney General.\n\nREPORT BY CROWN SOLICITOR ON C.S.O.1606 of 1879.\n\nRegina v. Soo A-su and another.\n\nIn this case I find that the boy LER A-PIU and also LAM A-TING of the Sun-kee Tailor's Shop in or near Canton, where the lad was apprenticed, both left the Colony immediately after the trial, and have not since been heard of. Possibly these witnesses might be got at through the British Consul at Canton, but without their evidence any charge brought against LAM PAK-CHEUNG the druggist could not be well substantiated,\n\nUnfortunately no other evidence is forthcoming, and Inspector CAMERON can find no trace of the man A-KAM who stole the lad at Canton, or of the woman A-NG, both of whom seem to have decamped on hearing that the Police had been applied to in the matter.\n\nThe druggist was himself the first to complain to the Police, and apparently bought the boy with no evil intention, and under the impression that he was an orphan without a home. The child too says that he never told the druggist that he had any home, and expressed no desire to leave him.\n\nThe purchase by Chinese (having no family of their own) of young orphans, and indeed of others whose parents are too poor to keep them is a social custom amongst the natives, and is of constant occurrence in Hongkong. These \"pocket children,\" as they are usually termed, are often treated with great affection and are far better off than they were previous to their being so bought.\n\nRegina v. Mak Loi-hi.\n\nWith the aid of Inspector LINDSAY, I have carefully investigated this case. CHEUNG A-KAI, and SEUNG A-LUK, 2nd and 4th defendants, discharged at the Police Court have already given their sworn testimony at the recent Criminal Sessions. Should it however after this be thought desirable to put them on trial. I think there may be sufficient evidence to obtain a conviction. LUM A-CHAN, 3rd defendant, seems to have taken a minor part in the affair, and would be required as a witness.\n\nTwo Magistrates sitting together have power to determine cases of this nature.\n\n(Signed,)\n\nEDMUND SHARP, Crown Solicitor.\n\nNo. 900\n\nTHE ADMINISTRATOR TO THE CHIEF JUSTICE.\n\nGOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 16th July, 1879.\n\nSIR,---I have the honour to inform you that your letter of 30th May last recommending that proceedings be taken against Lau PAT-CHEUNG and LEUNG A-LUK under Ordinance 4 of 1865, paragraphs 50 and 51, was referred by His Excellency Governor HENNESSY to the Acting Attorney General who, before making a report, asked that the papers might be referred to the committing Magistrate.\n\nI have now received the report of the Acting Attorney General as well as those of the committing Magistrate and of the Crown Solicitor and I regret to inform you that after carefully considering these reports as well as the depositions forwarded by your Honour, I do not see my way to directing the prosecutions of the two persons indicated by you, first because, with all deference to your Honour's opinion, I do not agree with you in looking upon them as the principal criminals, and secondly because I think that after the evidence of these persons has been taken before both the committing Magistrate and the Supreme Court without any warning having been given to them that their evidence might be used against them, it would appear like a breach of faith to treat them now as criminals.\n\nA perusal of the depositions which you forwarded me and which I now return does not show that either of these persons obtained possession of the children for immoral purposes. It appears also from the depositions that they were led by the statements of the prisoners who have been sentenced by you, which statements were confirmed by the children themselves to believe that one of the children had no parents and that the other was disposed of with the written consent of the father alleged to be the only surviving parent. Neither of the children seem to have been ill-treated and the Magistrate has expressed the opinion with regard to the woman LEUNG A-LUK that \"being a well-to-do woman and having no children of her own, she had purchased the child with a view of adopting her as a daughter in the belief that she did so with the father's sanction.\"\n\nShould the prosecution of these persons result in their acquittal which seems to me not improbable, I fear that the good effect produced by the severe reprimand which I understand that your Honour administered publicly to all the parties concerned in these two cases might be to a great extent neutralized.\n\nAs your Honour's letter has remained for some time unanswered, I think it only right that I should acquaint you without further delay with the opinion that I have formed on the subject of your communication. But as your letter has been under the consideration of Governor HENNESSY, whose departure for Japan prevented him from finally dealing with it, there seems to me to be no reason why the matter should not be left, if your Honour wishes it for the decision of His Excellency on his return to the Colony, when it will not be too late to take proceedings against the parties should it be thought necessary to adopt that course.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nSir,\n\nHis Honour THE CHIEF JUSTICE,\n\n&c.,\n\n&c.,\n\n&c.,\n\nYour obedient Servant,\n\nW. H. MARSH,\n\nAdministrator.\n\nTHE CHIEF JUSTICE TO COLONIAL SECRETARY.\n\nTHE SUPREME COURT, HONGKONG, 8th October, 1879.\n\nSIR, The Criminal calendar for September, 1879, was sent to you in due course yesterday. It comprises three cases, case No. 1, a conviction of LEE A-KAU for kidnapping and detaining a child aged ... years. Case No. 6, a conviction of TSANG SZ-TAU and U A-IN on two counts for kidnapping and detaining a boy Ho Po-SING with intent to sell him in this Colony, and on two other counts for the same offence as to another boy YEUNG-SHING, and case No. 9, a conviction of KEUNG A-TO for purchasing a female child TING-HENG for the purpose of prostitution in this Colony, and of LI A-KAK for having sold the same child for the same purpose.\n\nI thought it my duty on the occasion of passing sentences on these prisoners to enlarge on the crimes to which these crimes ministered the great increase of which in number had recently been brought to the notice of the Court especially slavery, usually designated domestic, and slavery for the purposes of prostitution and seeing that arguments, doubts and difficulties had been rather hinted at than fully expressed, I thought it incumbent on me to enter very fully into all the questions at a length which otherwise might be thought too prolix.\n\n21",

        "content_text": "# Narrative on the Prosperity of Hong Kong\n\nThe narrative shows what is called land speculation; on the contrary, it shows that the commercial wants of the Colony have been increasing, that the necessity of providing more godowns has been felt by the merchants, and that our manufactures are increasing. You will notice, and I am happy to notice, that not only has there been an increase of enterprise and prosperity on the part of the foreign community, but also on the part of the Chinese.\n\nSome time ago, I observed, in referring to the progress of India, that the Secretary of State for India, Lord Hartington, looked forward to the time when certain public works in India would be undertaken by private enterprise. When you consider what is done by the Survey Department in this Colony, you cannot but notice how small the amount really is which we lay out in public works as compared with what may be done by private enterprise and capital when the Colony is really prosperous.\n\nSir Hercules Robinson entertained the scheme of forming a Praya Wall at Kowloon and wharves running from it out into deep water so that steamers and ships could go alongside. The expense was considerable. The scheme was contemplated by the Government, but it was felt the time had not come for the Government to undertake it. Now it is being undertaken, not by the Government, but by private enterprise, and I am sure you will agree with me that nothing can be more healthy, as a sign of our prosperity, than that works of this kind should be undertaken, not by the Survey Department but by private enterprise.\n\nThe Government could hardly afford to lay out a million dollars on a work of that kind. Of course, the sugar refinery to which I have referred is one that belongs to the domain of private enterprise. But it is manifest that whatever you may say with respect to the prosperity of the Colony as shown by the revenue returns, by the general commercial activity of the Colony, by the fortunate position of the Colony with regard to the diminution of crime and the greater comfort and ease of everyone as regards the protection of life and property - whatever indications of prosperity may be seen, it is also one that deserves congratulation that, in the history of Hong Kong, there never was a time when there was more enterprise among all classes of the community, Europeans as well as Chinese.\n\nAnd there is one class of enterprise, an intellectual enterprise, to which I have great pleasure in referring. I myself have the honour of belonging to the Inns of Court in London. I passed an examination in Lincoln's Inn. Some of my learned friends who are present know that at those examinations there are young men from Oxford and Cambridge, London University, and King's College, and the great competition is for the studentships or scholarships given at Lincoln's Inn. Last year, a young man born under the British flag in this Colony succeeded at that examination in defeating his competitors from Oxford and Cambridge, from London University, and from the Scotch and Irish Universities, and in three of the subjects of examination, he obtained first place. That is Mr. Ho Kai, a gentleman born in this Colony. I think it is a matter we may all congratulate ourselves upon, and that young gentleman, who has been called to the bar, will arrive, I think, this month in the Colony, and I am sure you will all join with me in welcoming him.\n\nMy attention has been called by the Chinese inhabitants of the Colony to one or two things in which they are especially interested, and I have had under my consideration a scheme they have put before me by which wealthy Chinese in this Colony might have an opportunity afforded them of putting aside a certain portion of the money they make, investing it in such a way as to benefit their descendants and also to benefit the Colony. I may briefly say it is a system of forming a species of trust property which may be administered by a certain number of the Chinese community, perhaps those who under one of our Ordinances conduct the affairs of the Tung Wah Hospital, and to that body of Chinese will be given from time to time considerable sums by wealthy Chinese which will be invested by them, a certain portion, say seven-tenths, to be appropriated so as to benefit the descendants of the donors by giving them education, and in other ways, the remaining three-tenths to be devoted to the public interests of the Colony in general.\n\nA scheme of that kind, carefully elaborated, has been recommended to me by what I am justified in describing as the Chinese community of the Colony. They have put it before me. I am disposed to give it the most favourable consideration, and I mention it now with satisfaction because it is a further indication of the real progress of Hong Kong. As long as these gentlemen, who, as you know, now represent the wealthiest ratepayers in the community, as long as they desire to establish themselves and their descendants in the Colony for ever, so long we have a guarantee for loyalty and good order.\n\nOn the whole, gentlemen, in opening the Legislative session for 1882, I think we can all look forward, without anxiety, not only to the present year, but to the continued prosperity of the Colony.\n\n## Legislative Session Proceedings\n\nHon. F. B. Johnson - Will your Excellency inform me if I shall now be in order?\n\nHis EXCELLENCY - No. We must adhere to the Order Book.\n\n### Opium Ordinance\n\nHis EXCELLENCY moved the first reading of \"An Ordinance to Amend the Opium Ordinance No. 2 of 1858.\" He explained that it was introduced by direction of the Secretary of State, its object being the protection of prepared opium in transitu through the Colony.\n\n### Vehicles Ordinance\n\nHis EXCELLENCY moved the first reading of \"An Ordinance to amend the Vehicles Ordinance, No. 6 of 1863.\"\n\n### Naturalization\n\nHis EXCELLENCY moved the first reading of Bills for the naturalization of Lai Shun Ting, Chan Teng Cho, Ng Li Hung, Yau Chong Peng, and Chan Man Wing.\n\nThe ACTING COLONIAL TREASURER said he trusted that before these Ordinances were passed, schedules would be attached describing who the gentlemen were to whom they referred. In other cases, it had been merely the naturalization of a name. In Dr. Eitel's case, they knew who was intended from the preamble, but with regard to the other bills which had been passed, he had in his employ some gentlemen who might claim them, as their names corresponded with the naturalization Ordinances, and there was nothing to show who was naturalized.\n\nHis EXCELLENCY said he thought the suggestion a good one.\n\nThe ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the form adopted with reference to the Ordinance was one adopted in another Colony where it had been in force for years, one of the few Colonies in which it was necessary to proceed by legislation in cases of individual naturalization, and it was a form which, as His Excellency was aware, had received the assent of Her Majesty's Government, and although there might be a schedule, he did not think it would be at all proper to attach such a schedule.\n\nHis EXCELLENCY said that although it might not be necessary to attach such a schedule, he thought the information asked for might be given.\n\nThe ACTING COLONIAL TREASURER said the description might be given in the preamble.\n\nHon. Ng Choy said the age should certainly be given.\n\nThe Bills were read a first time.\n\n### Tramway Bill\n\nThe ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE, Chairman of the Special Committee on the Tramway Bill, presented the report of the Committee.\n\nHon. E. R. Belilios - There is a small matter which requires consideration. It has occurred to me, and I should fail in my duty if I omitted to mention it. I stated it at our Committee meetings, but was directed by my honourable friend the Chairman to bring it forward at this assembly. We are all aware that hitherto, whenever it has been found necessary to improve thoroughfares, the level of the roads has been raised at the discretion of the Surveyor-General. At the examination of this officer at a meeting of the Tramways Bill Committee, it was elicited that in certain cases when roads happened to have been higher than the pavement of houses on either side, and when it was so desired by the owners, the compounds of such houses were raised equally with the new roads, but the Surveyor-General told us that no compensation was demanded and none was granted. I say it is fortunate for the taxpayers that no such questions have been raised as yet, because in the case of houses so affected, claims...\n\nPage 427",

Sir George Phillippo, Chief Justice, presided, and was supported by the Hon. P. Ryrie, Hon. J. M. Price, Hon. F. B. Johnson, Messrs. T. Jackson, C. P. Chater, W. Reiners, A. G. Romano, W. H. Forbes, F. D. Sassoon, H. N. Mody, D. Ruttunjee, and Ho Kai. Among the other gentlemen present were the Hon. J. Russell, Hon. A. Lister, Hon. F. Stewart, Dr. Ph. B. C. Ayres, A. P. MacEwen, I. Poesnecker, A. Gultzow, J. Lapraik, C. D. Bottomley, H. L. Dalrymple, Douglas Jones, J. Thorburn, F. H. Arjuna, J. P. McEuen, R. Lyall, J. S. Cox, J. A. Mosely, H. J. H. Tripp, A. B. Johnson, J. J. Francis, E. C. Wilcox, J. Grant, J. G. Smith, D. E. Caldwell, A. K. Travers, A. E. Vaucher, H. A. Woolnough, W. Doulau, &c., &c. A large number of the most influential Chinese residents were also present, among whom we noticed Messrs. Leong On, Wei Yak, Lee Sing, Lee Tak Cheong, Ho Mei, Wong Shing, Chan Quan Ei, &c., &c. \n\nThe CHAIRMAN opened the proceedings by saying-Gentlemen, I was asked by some of the leading members of the community a few days ago to take the chair upon this occasion; and I was only too happy to consent to do so, the objects of the meeting having my warmest sympathy. Before proceeding with the business of the meeting, however, I think it would be advisable that we should appoint a Secretary to take down the minutes of the proceedings, so that a proper record may be preserved, and that before we proceed with the business, we should ask him to read the notice calling the meeting. I would therefore suggest that Mr. MacEwen be appointed Secretary-(Applause)-and then we will ask him to read the notice and proceed to business. \n\nMr. A. P. MacEWEN-I shall have very much pleasure in acting as Secretary on this occasion; but I may mention that Mr. George had kindly consented to act as Secretary only unfortunately he has gone to Macao to-day, and will not be back till Monday. \n\nMr. MACEWEN then proceeded to read the notice convening the meeting. \n\nThe CHAIRMAN-Gentlemen, you have now heard the notice read convening the meeting and the objects for which it is to take place. It is called for the purpose, as you have heard, of discussing the question as to whether or not a memorial should be erected to the memory of the late Sir Arthur Kennedy, and to decide, if that be the general opinion of the meeting, what form that memorial shall assume. It will be within your recollection, gentlemen, that within the last few days we received the sad news of Sir Arthur's death-news which reached us under peculiarly affecting circumstances. Sir Arthur Kennedy, at the close of a long career spent in the public service, had at last retired in order to enjoy some period of rest at the close of his life; and you know, gentlemen, that after leaving Queensland and before arriving at Aden he died--about 100 miles this side of Aden-without ever reaching that rest to which he had looked forward. Those circumstances render his death a very touching one; and to us, who knew him so well, it is the more deeply so. We all of us, I believe, remember him with feelings of esteem and affection. It was shortly after I came up from the Straits Settlements I learned, much to my disappointment, that Sir Arthur Kennedy was then leaving. His parting with us occurred within these walls, and many of you were present on that occasion. Those who were present at the farewell banquet given to him will well remember the feelings with which we then parted with Sir Arthur Kennedy on his leaving us to assume the Government of Queensland. Those feelings, I believe, have not been lessened, but on the contrary, notwithstanding his absence, have remained firm; and I feel sure there are many still amongst us who feel for him the same feelings of attachment which were given vent to him. In my own experience, I know of many who were brought forward by Sir Arthur Kennedy simply for their devotion to the public service, and many of whom are now fulfilling important duties not only in the colonies, but even in the mother country itself. With regard to the general community I think I may safely say that Sir Arthur Kennedy endeared himself to all. He was always ready to see anybody and always ready to discuss any question of private or political importance. He was always ready to give an answer to any question that was laid before him, and when you got an answer from Sir Arthur Kennedy, you might rely upon it he meant what he said (Applause). Gentlemen, these qualities in a Governor are qualities which are, in my opinion, more to be desired than even the most brilliant intellect (Applause). In saying these few words with regard to Sir Arthur Kennedy, it is with no desire on my part to pronounce an eulogium upon his conduct or character. Gentlemen, in this Colony no eulogium is required. The presence of so numerous an assembly shows full well that you all appreciated him; and I must say this, that I think your presence here to-day reflects honour upon yourselves as well as upon the Governor whose death was so deeply lamented, because it shows that in this community at all events public and private virtues are appreciated. It is some years now since I first made the acquaintance of Sir Arthur Kennedy. I joined him first on the West Coast of Africa as Queen's Advocate, and for some time I was intimately connected with him in all concerns of a public nature. I cannot speak so much of his conduct here from personal experience, because I was with him for so short a time, but during the period I served with him as Queen's Advocate on the West Coast of Africa I will say this, that no man could have more conscientiously performed his public duties than Sir Arthur Kennedy did (Applause). I followed in his footsteps some time afterwards and went to the colony of British Columbia. There I heard on all sides the same account of Sir Arthur's services. Whilst he was Governor here, I once or twice met him as he was passing through the Straits Settlements; the last time I met him, I am sorry to say, was just after he had heard the news of Lady Kennedy's death, which, as you all know, occurred while he was Governor of this colony. Sir Arthur, I believe, was never the same man afterwards. I came up here only to find, as I said before, that he was leaving this colony for Queensland. Now, with regard to Sir Arthur's character and so forth, it is not for me to discuss it; questions of politics would be out of place so far as I am concerned, but nevertheless, gentlemen, I think you will all agree with me that Sir Arthur Kennedy was a fine old English or Irish gentleman of the old school-the terms are synonymous-and that he performed his duties to the best of his ability, and with a conscientious desire to do what he considered right to all sections of the community without favour or distinction (Applause). That is the character he has acquired in every part of the world where I have known anything of him. With regard to the members of the Civil Service, I can appeal to those present in this room, and I can say that with regard to them Sir Arthur Kennedy was invariably just and straightforward (Applause). He always gave every man the credit of doing what he considered best for the public good, if he (Sir Arthur Kennedy) believed that he did so. Otherwise, if he found that anybody was endeavouring to shirk his duty in the service, he had, as I myself know, sometimes rather a hard time of it. With regard to the civil servants of this colony, Sir Arthur Kennedy told me before I came up here that there was, he believed, as able a set of civil servants in Hongkong as there was in any part of Her Majesty's dominions (applause) and that he found from experience he was quite able to leave a great many things to them which would have been spoiled by his unnecessarily interfering. These same remarks Sir Arthur Kennedy repeated when he was leaving this Colony, at the banquet which I have referred to. You all remember what he then said-\"If I have been able to effect any good in the public service, I owe it to the gentlemen by whom I was surrounded and who have so ably assisted me.\" Well, gentlemen, I think, speaking for the public service generally, that all those who performed their duty to the public invariably found a lead in Sir Arthur Kennedy, and that is one great reason why the members of the Civil Service were all so much attached to him.\n\nPage 367\n\n171",

        "content_text": "# REGINA v. LOGAN.\n\nnot only the obligation rests upon us which rests upon every one else connected with the administration of justice to see that justice done, but we are here to fulfil a national obligation. We as a nation have entered into an obligation with the Chinese that when an offence is committed by one of our nation against the Chinese, that offender shall be tried according to the laws of England. The Crown does not require it, and no circumstances will justify you in swerving in the slightest degree from administering justice. If you are in danger of yielding to a generous impulse, and making concession to external influences, you must disabuse your minds of anything of that kind. You are to treat the prisoner exactly as if he were in England, and as if the deceased were not a Chinaman but an Englishman. So much we have bound ourselves to do: the death of a Chinaman is the same as the death of an Englishman, and you by your oaths have bound yourselves to deal with it as such, one way or another. There then only remains for me to deal with the question of a doubt. If you have a reasonable doubt, such as would operate upon your minds, such as would lead you to act in a particular way in some of your own most important concerns, then you can give the prisoner the benefit of it. But you are not to look out for peculiar possibilities, or to look out for anything which may possibly have happened, unless there is a probability as well as a possibility there is no doubt in the case. The doubt must be a reasonable one, and no other doubt can operate.\n\nIt may be taken into consideration when the question is whether he intended to do what he did, but when a man commits murder with a deadly weapon that excuse will scarcely avail him. For such a defence to avail, a man must be not only under the influence of liquor, but in a state in which he is no longer master of himself at all, and this amounts to a condition of temporary insanity. Now, gentlemen, if the circumstances of the case are shown you as I believe they will be; if the prisoner was excited, the excitement did not amount to such an excitement as to render him unaccountable for his actions. It did not render him unaccountable for using a deadly weapon. I think you will find he was in such a state as to know that by firing the gun into a crowd he was likely to wound someone. Seeing that he had already wounded a woman he could see that his act was such as would be likely to cause death.\n\nSubject to any correction of his Lordship, that no words, however opprobrious they might be, and nothing that the deceased might have said, nor the people around him, will be sufficient to reduce the crime from murder to manslaughter. The law is that no provocation is sufficient to so reduce the crime if the killing be inflicted with a deadly weapon, and the intention be to do some grievous bodily harm. In this case there is no provocation shown which will thus reduce the crime if the facts are as I have stated. The prisoner did not stand on the defensive at all, he chased the people first in one direction and then in another, and therefore any excuse he making that his life was in danger will not avail him in this case. It is the duty of any man, when his life is in danger, to save it if he can by any means. The prisoner, however, was not on the defensive, for he chased the people, running first one way and then another—he had already wounded a woman, and then he goes deliberately in another direction and chases the people.\n\nThe following evidence was then taken—\n\nMr. J. Dyer Ball, of the Hongkong Supreme Court, was sworn in as Chinese interpreter.\n\nPak Akun was then called by the prosecution, and having been declared in the Chinese manner by the ceremony of burning his own name, said—I have a boat for removing rubbish, and I live at a village called Shek Tong, which is some forty Chinese li from Hongkong. I remember the 12th August last; early on the morning of that day my boat was anchored at the Put Yau Temple, where I was scavenging. I and my son Pak Wa Kung were in the boat. My son was 12 years old, and he was also a scavenger. I was scavenging, and my son went to the chief street in Nam Ngon to buy salt fish. This street is in Honam, at Chan Tau Tsui. I did not see my son alive again after he went to buy the fish. He went at six o'clock, and I heard that he was killed at half-past six. I saw my son's body at ten o'clock; he was dead. I saw by the wounds on his body that he had been struck on his back, and the substance which inflicted the wound had passed through the body and out at the stomach.\n\nWitness—There were some men who put up their hands, and they called out something.\n\nWhat happened then?—The Chinese then came running past my house, and the foreigners pursued them. I saw that myself, and I then saw that one of the foreigners had a firearm in his hand, and I quickly went in and shut the door. The foreigners passed my shop pursuing the men, going westward. I then went upstairs to look out of the window. I saw the three foreigners returning towards the east, and I saw that one of them had a firearm, and one had a leather bag. The firearm was a six-chambered revolver about six inches long.\n\nIn answer to a further question from Mr. Wilkinson, the witness said he was by his son's body up till the time of the inquest, crying and watching.\n\nCross-examined by Mr. Wise—The deceased's name was Pak Wa Kung; he was my own born son, and not my nephew.\n\nWas there anyone following the men back?—There was a Chinswoman following them who had been shot.\n\nWhy do you say she had been shot?—She had blood on her shoulder, and was pointing to it.\n\nWong Shan Shan, similarly sworn, examined by Mr. Francis, said—I am the master of the Ti Kai shop, and am a Chinese subject. The shop is at Nam Ngon Chan Tak Tsai, which is not the general name of the place. I was not acquainted with the prisoner, but I have seen him before; his house is a few doors from mine on the same side of the street. I remember the 12th August; about half past six that morning I was sitting in my shop, in such a position near the door that I could see into the street. I saw three foreigners pass the house; my dog was inside; they were walking together and were not doing anything. I saw one of them had a stick in his hand, a thick one with thorns on it. (Witness represented a diameter of about an inch and a half for the stick with his hand.)\n\nHad that man anything in his hands in the street that morning?—He was walking along and I was sitting in the shop, and I could not say.\n\nYou say that one man was carrying a revolver, and you cannot say whether that was the man?—The man carrying the stick was a tall man; it was the prisoner who had the revolver, and he was a stout man who had the leather bag. The prisoner was not the man I saw with the stick; he is not the tall man; I do not know the tall man's name, nor where he lives.\n\nThe Court Constable here produced a revolver, which being loaded, he was instructed to take it out, and remove the cartridges.\n\nMr. Francis to witness—Where did the woman follow the foreigners to?\n\nWitness—She followed them to Logan's door.\n\nMr. Francis—Look round the court and see if there are any of those three men here.\n\nWitness—One is here (pointing out the prisoner in the dock).\n\nPage 18",

        "content_text": "16\n\none or two feet.\n\nREGINA v. LOGAN.\n\nI know the difference between a long gun and a revolver; this was a long firearm. I saw the firearm; I heard a report, and I heard a child make an exclamation—Hi-yah—and fall down. I was in the cross-street looking along the straight street, and the child was in the straight street. I did not actually see the child fall, but I saw him bow down, and walk across the street bowed down. I heard him call \"Hi-yah!\" and then I just looked round, but I did not continue to look at him. I was about three cheong distant from the boy when this happened, and he was on the east of the bridge, a little farther from it than I was, and he was about three shops distant from the cross-street in which I was. The prisoner is the man who fired the firearm.\n\nI saw no one in the street between the prisoner and the boy, who was in the cross-street, not the main street. I saw no other Europeans in the street when the shot was fired. There was a stout foreigner on the bridge, who moved his hand, and ran forward from the west to the east, telling prisoner not to fire. I did not hear what he said, but I saw he told him not to fire from the motion of his hand. I only heard one shot fired as I ran away when I heard it; I did not hear any other shots fired at any time that day. I did not at the time know the name nor occupation of the prisoner nor anything about him. I supposed the boy was shot, and my reasons for supposing so were seeing him staggering along, and being bowed down. When I saw the foreigners chasing Chinese along the street the Chinese were not fighting or quarrelling nor attacking the foreigners, or attempting to strike them, and at the time I saw the prisoner firing the gun there were no Chinese threatening or attacking him nor doing anything of the kind; there were no Chinese near him.\n\nI saw the boy run in a bowed attitude towards the river. The street is five or six feet wide.\n\nDo you mean to say you had your head round that corner and saw the prisoner pointing a firearm down the street in your direction, and yet you kept your head there to see him fire? Were you not afraid you would be hit yourself, the street being only five or six feet wide? My body was hidden behind the corner, and only my head was out.\n\nAre you in the habit, when you go round a corner, of always putting your head round first?\n\nI put my head round and the shot was fired at the same time. The prisoner was the man who fired the gun. He was dressed in white, and the other two men were dressed all in dark, trousers and coat. When I saw the boy running in this bent position I did not see anyone else hurt. After I saw the boy was hit, I ran down Fak Hing-street to the river, and I did not see the boy any more. The man who waved his hand to the prisoner not to fire is not in court.\n\nA Juryman—Did the boy turn to the right or left after the shot was fired?\n\nWitness—He was going straight when he was shot, and then he turned to the left and went towards the ferry, bowed down.\n\nLai Tsok Wan said—I am a tobacco seller in West Fak Lung-street, Honam. I remember the 12th August last. That morning I went out to go to the Kai Fuk to get goods at a shop. I went from west to east, and on the way I only saw a few people, as I usually see in the street. I met a foreigner on the bridge carrying a foreign firearm and there were two foreigners following behind; did not see them holding anything. After I had passed them and gone a cheong or two I heard the report of a foreign firearm. When I did so the two foreigners behind were a few Chinese feet from me; the one with the firearm was further away. I saw no disturbance in the street, but when I turned into the straight street where the bridge is, I was frightened. That was all the disturbance I saw.\n\nCross-examined by Mr. Wise—I did not see the shot fired; I turned my head round and looked when I heard the report, and I saw the foreigner stooping down still holding the firearm. I did not see the smoke, but the report sounded from that place. I have never said before that I saw the foreigner with a foreign firearm to any one excepting when I went into the tobacco shop. I cannot state what the firearm was like, but it was about two feet in length. He was only carrying one firearm and I have never said he was carrying two.\n\nCross-examined by Mr. Wise—I was two or three cheong from the prisoner when he fired, and the boy was six or seven cheong from him, three shops from the corner of the main street. I saw some Chinese running as if they were frightened. I know a pork butcher's shop called the Tai Fung. I was not in the same cross-street as the boy, but one nearer the bridge branching out of the straight street on the opposite side. [Witness indicated the spot he was at on the plan, and the place the boy was when he was shot, and marked them].\n\nMr. Wise—How could you see the boy when there were several buildings between?\n\nWitness—I ran along and saw him. He was outside a cash shop, and I looked along the street and saw him.\n\nCould you see the boy at all without running up the street?—I could see him at the corner without running up the street. He was in the cross-street at the end of the main street.\n\nMr. Wise applied that Mr. Ball should read over to the witness his deposition taken before the Consul at the preliminary examination.\n\nREGINA v. LOGAN.\n\nThe Crown Advocate offered no objection.\n\nThis was done.\n\nMr. Wise—After that do you still say you have not said you met the prisoner with two firearms in his hands?\n\nWitness—What I said was that his two hands held a firearm. I have never said he was carrying two firearms.\n\n17\n\n27th September, 1883.\n\nTHE \"HANKOW\" AFFAIR. At the commencement of the proceedings of the court the following decision was given on the application for a warrant for the arrest of the man Dias in connection with the above case.\n\nHis Lordship said—It is as well that I should dispose now of the application made to me on Tuesday by Mr. Francois. It appears that the application is prematurely and irregularly made, there being at that time no charge against the person with respect to whom the application was made. Apart from that point, however, I do not think I can grant the application inasmuch as the affidavits do not contain any allegation with regard to this person that he is a British subject, and that he is at the present time within the jurisdiction of this court. On these grounds I refuse your application.\n\nHave you ever told anyone before to-day that you were quite close to the man when he fired, only about three Chinese feet distant—No; what I said was that I was about that distance from the nearest foreigner. The two foreigners who were behind the one with the firearm were close together two or three cheong behind him. Of the two behind one was stout and fair, and the other dark.\n\nTam Wai Chan said—I am employed in the Tai Fung. I know the chief street of the Nam Ngon district; it has a bridge in it. At half past six o'clock on the morning of the 12th, I saw some ten odd Chinese running from the west from the bridge past the door of my shop, and I put out my head and looked out, and I saw a foreigner a little beyond the bridge pointing a firearm, and as soon as I saw him I quickly drew in my head.\n\nTHE FATAL SHOOTING AFFRAY AT HONAM.\n\nThe hearing of this case was resumed at nine o'clock this morning, when the prosecution proceeded to call the following further evidence:\n\nNg Shap Ng, examined by the Crown Advocate, said—I am a ferryman. On the morning of the 12th inst. I went ashore to buy vegetables in Nam Ngon-street. I took some congee opposite to the trees; I think it was then about half-past six o'clock, and it was in the street leading down towards the river, on the east side of the street. I did not hear anything. I saw a number of people running towards the river as I was eating my congee, and I left my congee and ran too. I got to the entrance of a street coming into that one at right angles. I then heard the report of a firearm, and I was hit on my left hip at the back. [Witness pointed out the holes in his jacket and trousers where the bullet entered.] The shot entered my body at the left side and came out at the right. I walked two or three steps and then I fell. I also noticed a child there, a Chinese boy. The boy called out \"yah!\" and I called out \"Ai-yah!\" He fell down first, and then I fell down. I had run to the intersection of two streets when I was shot, and the boy was beside me.\n\nThe Crown Advocate—Did you see anything at the time you were shot?\n\nWitness—I will tell you what occurred item by item. I was standing at the corner of the street. I heard a shot, and I was hit, and I looked down and ran forward a little, looking on the ground. I had to do so when I was hit. I do not know how long I remained on the ground, as I was insensible.\n\nCross-examined by Mr. Wise—When I was shot the boy who was also shot was quite close to me; his jacket was against my jacket. When I heard the shot my face was towards the river and...\n\n23",

Mr. H. E. Wodehouse, senior Police Magistrate, presided, and there were present :- Voters-Dr. R. Young, Messrs. E. Mackean, H. L. Dalrymple, E. Mackintosh, H. J. H. Tripp, N. J. Ede, W. H. F. Darby, W. Danby, J. R. Anton, J. Y. V. Vernon, J. G. T. Hassel, A. Molver, J. Thorburn, M. E. Bassoon, G. E. Noble, B. Layton, F. D. Sassoon, Hon. P. Ryrie, Framjee H. Arjánee, H. Foss, N. Q.

Cox, A. P. MacEwen, H. M. Mehta, D. Ruttuajes, J. J. Francis, Dr. W. Hartigas, Hon. F. B. Johnson, F. T. P. Foster, Wong Shing, C. Chen Bee, Wei Ayuk, Lok San Theen, Chan Quan Ee, Wong See Tye, J. B. Coughtrie, H. Diekie, W. K. Hughes, E. R. Belilios, and Ho Kai; Non-voters (officials): Capt. H. G. Thomsett, Messrs. J. P. McEnen, J. S. Brewer, and A. G. Wise. The Chairman also abstained from voting as an official.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-Gentlemen, I will call upon the clerk to read the notice convening the meeting.\n\nMr. J. PARKER, clerk to the Justices, read the notice, and also the instructions received from the Governor.\n\nThe names of the Justices were then called over, those who were present answering.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-Gentlemen, I will now ask any of you who have candidates to propose to do so in writing, with the seconder's name added, and hand the papers in to me. In order that the proceedings may be perfectly fair and above board I propose that all the names be handed to me before any remarks are made with regard to the candidates proposed, and I will put them into a hat and take them out one by one indiscriminately and then ask the proposers and seconders to make any remarks on the candidates they may wish.\n\nMr. FRANCIS-As a matter of procedure, Sir, may I venture to suggest to the meeting that, as we cannot all look on while the ballot boxes are being examined, the gentlemen proposing the candidates with the Chairman of the meeting should form a committee of scrutiny to examine the contents of the ballot boxes and notify the result.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-Will you allow that to stand over for the present until the next step has been taken?\n\nMr. FRANCIS-As you please, Sir.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-If there is no objection to the course I propose, that will be the next step taken.\n\nThree papers were then handed in, and the first read out was the name of Mr. A. P. MacEwen, proposed by the Hon. F. B. Johnson and seconded by Mr. A. McIver.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-I now call upon the gentlemen proposing and seconding to offer any remarks they may wish.\n\nHon. F. B. JOHNSON-Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, I have very great pleasure indeed in proposing the name of Mr. Alexander Palmer MacEwen as a very fit and proper person to represent not only this body but the community generally in the Legislative Council of this colony. (Applause).\n\nMr. McIVER-I have very great pleasure in seconding the hon. gentleman's proposition.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN then drew the next paper, containing the name of Mr. E. R. Belilios, proposed by Mr. Ho Kai and seconded by Mr. H. M. Mehta.\n\nMr. Ho KAI-Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, I rise with the greatest pleasure to propose Mr. E. R. Belilios for your nomination as your representative on the Legislative Council. Mr. Belilios is well known to every one of you, since he has been here for a period of over twenty-two years, and he needs no introduction from me. I am sure you all have met him in various public capacities, either as a director, or as a temporary member of the Legislative Council, or as one of the oldest Justices of the Peace, and you have seen him filling all the positions in which he has been placed with a degree of credit and ability which must have won your respect. I need scarcely say anything in his favour except to beg your earnest attention to the fact that notwithstanding many things have been said in favour of brilliant talents and eloquent speech, we must have as our representative member something more than that; we must have a man of long experience, yes, long local experience, and of independent position, one who is not likely to be influenced by any personal considerations, and one who will always strive to do everything in his power to protect the public interests. I have very much pleasure therefore in proposing Mr. E. R. Belilios.\n\nMr. MEHTA-I have very great pleasure in seconding the proposition which has been moved by Dr. Ho Kai.\n\nThe next paper drawn bore the name of Mr. F. D. Sassoon, proposed by Mr. C. P. Chater and seconded by Mr. W. K. Hughes.\n\nMr. CHATER-I have very great pleasure in proposing that Mr. Frederick David Sassoon be nominated by this body to a seat in the Legislative Council. Gentlemen, you are all well acquainted with Mr. Sassoon, and it does not require much from me to put forward his claims. He is the senior partner here in the firm of Messrs. David Sassoon, Sons, and Co., a firm established here ever since the colony was founded. His brothers, the previous partners of his firm, have always been very closely identified with this colony, and have even at the present moment a very large interest in the place. So also has the candidate I bring forward, and I trust he will have a much larger interest in the place before he leaves it.\n\nMr. HUGHES-I beg to second Mr. Chater's proposition.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-Any gentleman wishing to make any remarks on the several candidates is at liberty to do so.\n\nNo remarks being offered, the CHAIRMAN explained the course to be observed in voting. Three ballot boxes were placed on a table behind a screen in the corner of the room, each bearing the name of one of the candidates in English and Chinese. Each Justice voting was requested to sign his name before going behind the screen, and on doing so received a voting bean to be deposited in the ballot box bearing the name of the candidate for whom he wished to vote.\n\nBefore the voting took place Mr. FRANCIS said-I propose on behalf of the meeting that the gentlemen who propose the candidates act as scrutineers, as we cannot all very well crowd round to look on.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-I will still ask that that be postponed till the ballot is closed.\n\nMr. FRANCIS-I beg to propose it now, as the proper time.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-Very well. Are the gentlemen present willing for that?\n\nMr. MACKEAN-I beg to second it.\n\nMr. DANBY-Before that is put to the meeting may I ask if you have any alternative system to propose?\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-As stated in the letter of instructions, I will be guided by the wishes of the Justices. The only point is that I wish we should conduct these proceedings step by step. The motion of Mr. Francis, a very proper one in its way, would come in more fittingly after the voting has been concluded and before the scrutiny commences. What I should have suggested would have been that the gentlemen put their votes in the ballot boxes and put their names on the paper, and when that was done, and before anything further was done with the ballot boxes, that the form of scrutiny be decided upon.\n\nMr. FRANCIS-As you were arranging the method of proceeding I thought you might have it settled at once.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN-It is all settled as far as I am concerned.\n\nPage 22\n\nMr. Francis",

Your long connection with the School, extending over a period of more than twenty years, has made you the benefactor of thousands of youths in this colony and elsewhere, many of whom owe their success in life mainly to your liberal education, wise discipline, and careful training. As Head Master you have laboured long and perseveringly for the school, sparing neither time nor pains, and it must be gratifying to you to witness the satisfactory results of your arduous labours in seeing so many of your old pupils occupying numerous important and useful positions in this colony and other parts of the world. (Applause.) It is no less gratifying to you, I am sure, to meet such a number of them this afternoon in this old school-room where we have so often met before, and to receive from them their personal assurance of their deep appreciation and grateful acknowledgment of your valuable services, rendered to them and to their fellow countrymen. I assure you it gives us all very great pleasure to meet you here to-day, and you will do us much honour and favour by accepting from us the small token of regard and affection we now present to you in the shape of a scholarship founded in your name. May you long be preserved to the service of your country, and to the welfare and prosperity of this Colony. (Applause.) I now crave leave to read the address:— \n\nHongkong, February, 1884. The Honourable FREDERICK STEWART, LL.D., late Head Master of the Government Central School, Hongkong, \n\nDEAR SIR,—There has been a general and spontaneous feeling amongst your old pupils that some means should \n\nbe devised to express in some measure their grateful and profound esteem for yourself personally, and your most valuable services and work in connection with education in this Colony during a period of more than twenty years. The scope and value of your past services can only be adequately estimated or properly appreciated by those whom you sought to benefit by your learning, high personal example, constant kindness, indefatigable energy and wise discipline, and so we, who have been among the fortunate recipients of the fruits of your labour, wish to express our grateful remembrance and appreciative recognition in a becoming manner. \n\nThis is our object in coming before you to-day, and it is our desire in the first place, to give expression to the deep feelings of personal regard and high esteem which we in common with those of your pupils who are prevented by unavoidable causes from signing the address \n\nEnclosure \n\nC O. \n\n4283 \n\nROD \n\nor being present to-day, cherish towards you, and, secondly, to ask your permission to the founding of a scholarship at the Government Central School to be called \"The Stewart Scholarship,\" the funds necessary to endowing it having been subscribed for this express purpose by late pupils and scholars, who saw in this a way to give you a slight token of the honour and affectionate remembrance in which your distinguished connection with the School as Head Master for more than twenty years is held by them. We remain, yours very faithfully, \n\nHo Kai, Chairman \n\nWei Yuk, Hon. Treasurer Wong Yat Sun, Hon. Secretary Chun Shing Kong, Hon. Secretary \n\nCOMMITTEE. \n\nChan Shun Fat Ng Pai Wei Leon Ho Chang Sang Sin Siu Choang Lak Y Leong Su Kwong Yoon Mun Choy Chan Kai Ming Cheang Yu Koot \n\nLak Hing Nam Kom Cha Seung \n\nIru Yow \n\nHo Chi \n\nHa Pak \n\nChow Chu \n\nFung Shui \n\nU Lai Un Chan U Fai \n\nSUBSCRIBERS. \n\nChoy Tan Chong Tam Tsun \n\nHo Tsun Tsang Kit Fan Kan Shin Fo Chan Long Hica Wong \n\nApat Chan Achew Lo Aruck \n\nTip Ping Kwan \n\nWong Saik Chee \n\nTam I Nam Luk Tit Fo Fang You Lai Kau Lam Yat Chun Kin Wing Chan Pau \n\nKwan Chak Lam Leong A Than \n\nChoong Ho \n\nTan Kwan Un Chan Ree Kwok Chik Kan \n\nHo Kun Moon \n\nHo Tsink Sin \n\nTeau Ying Koa \n\nYoung Kit Chaen \n\nChan A Sang Kwok Yang Kam \n\nChan Wing Yim \n\nChan Won Fun Trang Kum Chiu Ko Chim Yuen Ho Ha Sing \n\nLie Yne Foong Choung Shing Chan Ngui Him Chang Shan Pang Ting Ching Want Hin Chong \n\nFILE YRG \n\nNg Yaoi Wei Sung Wei Took Wei Kut \n\nSoo Kwai Sang \n\nHo Fus \n\nTang Wing Shing \n\nHung Kam Shing Hong Kam Ning Lam Su \n\nLam Ping Young Fung Chuen Chan Taung Fat Chau Pak \n\nDr. STEWART, in accepting the address, said Dr. Ho Kai and gentlemen, I thank you most heartily for this memorable token of your good will, and for the gracious terms in which you have presented it. Those \"deep feelings of personal regard and high esteem,\" to which you have given expression in this address, I most cordially reciprocate. There is no portion of my past life to which I look back with greater pleasure than the years I spent at the Central School. When I think of the support which I invariably received from the community, and the untiring efforts of my scholars to profit by the instruction they received, I feel that I should be wanting in my duty if I did not avail myself of this opportunity to convey to those who treated me with such forbearance and confidence the assurance of my sincerest gratitude. But apart altogether from the honour you have this day conferred on me personally by endowing this scholarship and calling it by my name, I desire to assure you that it would have been impossible for you to have done anything which I appreciate so much as this substantial boon which you have bestowed upon the old school. I trust that those who may hereafter be successful in winning it will do as much as you have done to uphold the credit of the school, and continue to manifest the same feelings of regard towards it and towards all who are called upon to take part in the instruction of your successors. \n\n(Applause) \n\nThe company then adjourned to luncheon in an adjoining room, and a number of toasts were afterwards drunk, \n\nHis Excellency the GOVERNOR,\" in proposing \"The Queen,\" said-Gentlemen, as you all appear to have done full justice to the ample fare placed before us by our kind Chinese hosts and I am sure you will all agree with me there could not have been a better luncheon served on any table in any part of the world-- (applause)-I say after such a luncheon it is time we should proceed to the less substantial but perhaps more intellectual part of the proceedings. When I was asked by the old scholars to preside on this occasion I gladly consented to their request, partly out of respect to them and partly because I wished to show my sympathy with the graceful and gratifying mark of honour which they are paying to-day to my distinguished friend opposite, Dr. Stewart. (Loud applause). Of course it is my first duty as chairman to propose that toast which is the first toast in every assembly of British subjects",

I never heard that either of the defendants were members of Triad Society. They attacked us because we were protecting the people from them.

The plain and sober uniforms of General Sargent, Commodore Morant, and of the other principal English Officers, who surrounded me when I received the Viceroy, made a striking contrast.\n\nThe ceremony is described with sufficient accuracy in the subjoined report extracted from the local newspapers :-\n\n## RECEPTION OF THE NEW VICEROY OF CANTON BY H.E. THE GOVERNOR.\n\nHis Excellency Chang Chih-tung, the new Viceroy of the Two Kwang, arrived here yesterday morning on board the China Merchants' S. N. Co.'s steamer Kwang Lee, on his way to Canton, where he will take the reins of Government from the hands of H.E. Chang Shu-sheng. With His Excellency was a large retinue, and 329 Chinese soldiers. During Sunday a number of small Chinese gunboats arrived in this harbour to meet the new Viceroy, and the Peng Chao Ha, Anton, and two smaller cruisers, met the Kwang Lee outside the harbour, and followed her in. The Kwang Lee was also followed by the Chinese men-of-war Chen Chin, Chai Hai, and Kang Ching, the latter of which is a large corvette and brought 800 troops for Canton. The Chinese gunboats all gave the usual Chinese salute of three guns as the Kwang Lee passed them, and their yards were manned with seamen, while during the morning a dropping fire of three gun salutes was kept going until the new dignitary landed.\n\nThe Acting Colonial Secretary went on board his steamer at 10 a.m. to invite him to pay his respects to His Excellency the Governor. Accordingly, the Viceroy landed at 2.30 p.m. under the customary salutes from the Victor Emmanuel and the Shore Battery, and was received at the Murray Pier by a guard of honour of the Buffs, and by Capt. Lewis, A.D.C. He then proceeded to Government House, accompanied by a suite of about 30 officers and attendants. He was received in the hall by His Excellency the Governor, who was surrounded by Major-General Sargent, C.B.; Commodore Morant, Colonel Crawford, R.A.; Colonel Graves and Colonel Hobson (of the Buffs), and several other Naval and Military officers; and by the Acting Chief Justice.",

He is said to have been enticed by Fong Sá and others on board a steam launch, which, I am told, was alongside of the old Schong wharf, and almost in front of the Awong Hip Lunny chop, on the day in question; on the pretense of going over to Thai Hau (Chinese Territory) to consult about the advisableness of starting some salt works in that neighbourhood. The launch left; but instead of directing their course for the place referred to, they went in the course for Lye Moon Pass; shaped their course for the Island of Fat Jan Chase where Chan Kam Shin was arrested, put on board a sunboat, and taken up to Canton.\n\nAlthough I have had every enquiry made in the vicinity of the Kwong Hip Sung shop, I have been unable to find any evidence to corroborate the allegations of Chan Kam-Shin. Moreover, Inspector Quincey is well acquainted with the people living in this shop; and I am of opinion that had such taken place, it would have been an easy thing for him to have found out something about it.

Not to make them a handsome present, not to do anything pleasing to them, but to put his hand into his pocket and make himself a handsome present. The park is for our own amusement and gratification, and probably certainly not for the recreation of the whole community, but only a section of the community—the section which you expect to put their hands in their pockets and subscribe towards the rejoicings. The Government have voted the money, the land is the property of the Government, and only the Government can do the work. The only thing we can do is to urge the Government on and say that if they will be so good as to get the work done this year and pay out the moneys voted for it we will put our hands into our pockets and pay the balance it may stand in need of. I put it the thing is utterly inadequate, utterly unworthy of the community, and almost ridiculous. The park would be a useful thing, but not for the jubilee celebration of Her Majesty. If we do anything let us do something that will be a credit to ourselves. I simply moved the amendment to the second resolution with a view of eliciting the opinions of the meeting. I loyally accept the decision. We are to have a permanent institution, but let it be something worthy of the occasion. As Mr. Ryrie says, we are wealthy enough to put our hands in our pockets and establish a well-endowed charitable institution of some kind, and if we are to have a permanent institution I do urge upon you, gentlemen, that this meeting should do something worthy of the occasion and of Her Majesty. I have much pleasure in seconding the amendment moved by Dr. Ho Kai. With regard to leaving the exact nature of the institution to the decision of Her Majesty, of course something must be suggested. Nothing can be left to Her Majesty except that perhaps half a dozen schemes may be submitted to her with suggestions, and she may choose one of them as most acceptable to herself. But with the broad general principle of the amendment I do most sincerely hope you will concur—that the permanent memorial take the form of a charitable institution the nature of which shall be in accordance with the wishes of Her Majesty the Queen.\n\n€ 189.\n\nMr. R. FRASER-SMITH—Your Honour and gentlemen, although there may be some difference of opinion as to the form the permanent memorial should take, I think there cannot be two opinions as to the pliability of conscience displayed by the learned Queen's Counsel who has just taken his seat. About ten minutes ago we had him contending the proper mode of celebrating the occasion would be to subscribe to the institution in London, and now we hear him advocating a charitable institution. There is certainly a great inconsistency in this as the two things happen to be as opposite as the poles. With reference to the only sensible objection raised to the Park by Dr. Ho Kai, which was that it had already been named the Bowen Park, that does not happen to be the case. I happened to be present at the little amusing farce which took place in Happy Valley two years ago, and what took place was that the Surveyor-General said it was the unanimous opinion of the people of the colony that the park should be named the Bowen Park. But the Surveyor-General had never had the sanction of the community to make that statement; and all Sir George Bowen said was that he was very glad to hear it. It was perfectly well understood that when the park was completed it should be named the Bowen Park, but it has never been so named, and therefore the objection is the merest phantasy. With reference to what Mr. Francis says as to its not being a suitable memorial, not good enough, I think nothing more suitable could be devised. A thing that is to tend so much to the health and recreation of the community is better than a charitable institution, which can only cut one way. The objection of a few Chinese is that the Chinese will not benefit by it. Who will benefit by a charitable institution? The Europeans? Certainly not; the Chinese and the Chinese alone. (Hear, hear). But the Chinese will benefit by this park; they benefit by it now. Anyone who frequents the Race-course as much as I do will see hundreds of children playing on it now. How many more hundreds will go there when it is put in proper order! I am certainly in favour of Mr. Chater's proposal until something else of a definite nature is put before the meeting. Nothing else definite has been put before the meeting, and until something better has been put forward I will certainly support Mr. Chater's proposal. (Applause).\n\nHon. A. LISTER—May I be allowed for one moment to protest against the idea that the Government is in any way pledged to complete the Park at Wong Nei-cheong? A very singular delusion seems to run in the minds of Dr. Ho Kai and others that when a certain sum of money is written down on paper it represents so much cash. A sum of $25,000, I think, was, in a moment of enthusiasm, put down as a possible sum which might be spent on a public park; but that sum was very quickly withdrawn, and the idea of spending anything was given up. Then the modest sum of $5,000 was put down and was spent. And what did it do? It reclaimed that little corner as you go into the valley, and that was all the Colony got for $5,000. A proposal was made to spend another $5,000, but the Surveyor-General said he preferred to do the whole thing or nothing, and he declined to do any patchwork. (Applause). He declined to spend $5,000 this year and $5,000 next year. He said it would simply be making matters worse; creating mud heaps was, I think, his expression. The Government has spent $5,000 to put a little corner in order, and it may in future years, if there is any available surplus, devote a little more to the same purpose. I should say that may occur, if nothing unforeseen happens, in fifteen years, or may be twenty years. (Laughter).\n\nHon. A. P. MACEWEN—Sir, I would simply say I do not consider any scheme which has been included in the Government estimates as fit and proper for the present occasion. Mr. Fraser Smith has said that no other definite scheme has been put before us, but I may say that shortly before I came into the room this evening I received a communication from a mutual friend who asked me to propose the following. I am sorry he is not here himself. He suggests, and I to a very great extent agree with him, that subscriptions to the jubilee commemoration should be devoted to the enlargement and restoration of the City Hall, which should hereafter be called the Victoria City Hall, and that a Committee be appointed to obtain plans and estimates, the same to be submitted to the subscribers. I may perhaps state the cost would amount to something like $30,000, and there is no doubt that sum could be very easily subscribed in this colony. It would at the same time benefit the Chinese and be a great source of pleasure to many Europeans, and it is a scheme I should support.\n\nThis proposition was not seconded.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN, in putting the amendment proposed by Dr. Ho Kai, said—Considering that we have declined to consider the proposal put forward by the Prince of Wales to subscribe to the Institute for Great Britain, India, and Colonies, perhaps the next most graceful thing we could do would be to leave the disposal of such funds as we may subscribe to the decision of Her Majesty herself, and that the Committee which may be appointed should be empowered to make out a list and forward it to Her Majesty, or it might be submitted hereafter to another public meeting. However, the resolution and amendment have been proposed and seconded, and it is a question for your consideration.\n\nThe amendment was then put and lost, and Mr. Chater's resolution for the formation of the Victoria Park was carried by a large majority.\n\nMr. FRANCIS proposed the appointment of the following gentlemen as a general Committee: Major-General Cameron, Vice-Admiral Hamilton, Sir Geo. Phillippo, Commodore Morant, Colonel Storer, R.E., Colonel Ryan, R.A., the Right Rev. Bishop Burdon, Dr. Chalmers, Rev. A. Gase; the Consuls for France, Japan, United States, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Peru, Siam, and Spain; Messrs. Ackroyd, Ayres, Bell-Irving, Bottomley, Chater, Coughtrie, Crawford, Darby, Deane, Francis, Grote, Hoppius, Huntington, Inchbald, Lister, Humphreys, Li Shing, MacEwen, Mackintosh, Marty, Mehta, Mody, Poesnecker, Rano, Ross, Russell, Ryrie, Rutter, F.

A. LISTER seconded, and the resolution was carried.\n\nOn the motion of the Hon. P. RYRIE a vote of thanks to the Chairman was carried by acclamation.\n\n431",

He was charged with unlawful possession of a deadly weapon and being in possession of a firearm without being the holder of a night pass.\n\nWhen all were brought before the Court, Cho A-pine's defenses, after several remands, resulted in a fine of $50.00, which was paid at once. I am told that Nos. 2, 3, 4, and 5 were in his company and came by chance.

J. Ackroyd, Acting Attorney General\n\n13th May, 1887.\n\nThe Daily Press.\n\nHONGKONG, FEBRUARY 21st, 1887.\n\nRENDITION CASE. Three Chinese, Thu Sang Chieu, Thi Har Shing, and Ching Sam were brought before the court charged with burglary and murder within the jurisdiction of the Emperor of China. The men were arrested by Inspector Quincey and some assistants in consequence of a communication from the Chinese authorities asking for the rendition of seven men on the above charges. The three prisoners are said to be some of those wanted, the others being at present at large.\n\nEvidence was produced to prove the arrest and identity of the prisoners.\n\nMr. Caldwell, who appeared for the prosecution on behalf of the Chinese authorities, applied for a remand in order that he might have an opportunity to formulate specific charges. He also asked that bail should not be allowed and that the prisoners should be segregated.\n\nHis Worship remanded the case for a week, and directed that the prisoners should be kept separate, bail being refused.\n\nThe Daily Press.\n\nHONGKONG, MARCH 14th, 1887.\n\nCHARGE AGAINST A CHINESE MANDARIN OF CONSPIRACY TO MURDER. Colonel Li Loi, an officer of the Chinese Government, and Chun Ayut, alias Leung Yow, a hawker, appeared before the Court, the former upon the charge of subornation of perjury and the latter upon that of perjury. These charges were, as appears below, in the course of the proceedings supplemented by the more serious charges of attempting to murder and conspiring to murder one Leung Fa.\n\nOn the 19th February last three men were arrested in Hongkong upon the application of Colonel Li Loi, acting for the Viceroy of Canton, under the provisions of the Rendition Ordinance. The charge was one of burglary and murder, and the prisoners were defended by Messrs. Holmes and Dennys. The trial has been occupying the attention of the court for the last three or four days, and on Friday the evidence of the man calling himself Leung Yow, and passing as the nephew of the woman robbed, was questioned. Witnesses were called to prove that Leung Yow was an assumed name, and that the man's real name was Chan Ayut. The man was further personally examined by Dr. Hartigan, and tattoo marks were discovered, which though somewhat difficult to distinguish, were declared by the Chinese interpreter of the court, Chan Kai Ming, to represent the Chinese character \"To\" (thief). Other marks were also discovered, and it appeared that there was little question but that the man is a well-known criminal.\n\nAt the close of Friday's sitting Mr. Dennys applied to Mr. Wodehouse to detain both Colonel Li Loi and Leung Yow. The latter was accordingly detained, but His Worship declined at that stage to make any order as to Colonel Li Loi. Mr. Dennys, thereupon, took upon himself the responsibility of having Colonel Li Loi arrested. Colonel Li Loi, after being under arrest all night, was, on Saturday morning, released on a bail of $1,000.\n\nOn the appearance in court on Saturday morning of Chan Ayut he was placed in the dock, but the Mandarin, who was accompanied by Mr. Caldwell, was accommodated with a seat at the Solicitors' table.\n\nMr. Dennys, thereupon, pointing to Li Loi said—I charge this man with conspiring to murder, and I ask that he may be placed in the dock beside the other prisoner. I have strong reasons for objecting to any distinctions being drawn between this man and any other prisoner.\n\nHis Worship—I wish to hear first what reasons you have for doing this.\n\nMr. Dennys—The overt act, which I shall allege against the two prisoners, will be attempting to murder a man named Achus, but whom I know by the name of Leung Fu, and who is at present detained, as prisoner on remand, in Victoria Gaol. The overt act, which I shall allege in support of my charge, is, that these two persons have, in connection with proceedings which have been taken before another magistrate in this Colony, committed wilful and corrupt perjury, and I say that had they succeeded in their designs, they would have murdered Achus, alias Leung Fu, who is charged with murder, and who would have lost his life. I am told, your Worship, that the position I am in to-day is not a proper one for me. As the solicitor in the previous case, I applied to the magistrate who was adjudicating that case to detain those two defendants, and to have them charged with perjury. My application was refused, but the magistrate informed me that I, having seen the felony committed, it was for me to prosecute. I am therefore here to-day, not as a solicitor for any body, but simply as one of the citizens of Hongkong, who believes that an attempt to murder has been made, and I therefore prosecute.\n\nI may say that I have in my possession a sworn declaration, made before a Justice of the Peace in this Colony, of a large number of witnesses who have all declared that the evidence given by Chung Ayat, the second defendant in this case, is absolutely false. I had these declarations in my possession before I accepted the challenge of the magistrate, and took the position of prosecutor. If your worship wishes me to give a brief outline of what these proceedings are, I shall be happy to do so.\n\nHis Worship—You will have to state what the perjury consists of, and the depositions in the other case will have to be referred to.\n\nMr. Dennys then asked for the depositions in the other case to be produced at this point of the proceedings.\n\nMr. J. J. Francis, Q.C., who was instructed by Mr. Caldwell, appeared for the defence.\n\nMr. Francis—May I ask, your Worship, what is the charge against the prisoners?\n\nThe Magistrate—They are charged with conspiracy to murder.\n\nMr. Francis—May I ask who is the complainant?\n\nMr. Dennys—I am the complainant.\n\nThe Magistrate—Will you then formulate the charges and give them in writing.\n\nMr. Dennys—I will do so. I ask your Worship to adjourn the case till this afternoon in order to give me time to do so.\n\nMr. Francis—I object to any adjournment. The two men have been placed upon the charge sheet, one for perjury and the other for subornation of perjury. Either these charges must be gone on with or others substituted, otherwise your Worship cannot adjourn the case.\n\nMr. Dennys—I apply, then, for leave to amend the charge made last night. I now charge these two defendants Li Loi and Chan Ayat with conspiring together to attempt to murder a man named Leung Afu, who is at present detained a prisoner in Victoria Gaol. I likewise charge these two defendants with attempting to murder the said Leung Afu, and I further charge the first defendant with subornation of perjury.\n\nMr. Francis—Subornation to commit perjury, when and where?\n\nMr. Dennys—Suborning the second defendant to commit perjury in certain proceedings that have taken place before Mr. Wodehouse, one of the Magistrates in the Colony. The said perjury consisted of the allegation that the said Chan Ayut, who then called himself Leung Yow, had been kidnapped by Leung Afu; had been carried away by him from a place called Kweichow, in the Shun-tak district of Canton; had been taken by the said Leung Afu to a place called Whampoa, and had been detained there for two whole days. I further allege that the said Chan Ayut denied that he was called Leung Yow, and said that he had never heard that name before.",

        "content_text": "I allege that he denied that he had a brother called Chan Koo I, and that he further stated that he had never been connected with any Chinese officials whatever until the 6th day of March, when he met the first defendant in Hongkong. He further said that he had never been in any Chinese prison; that he had but two marks upon his person, one on his head, caused by chopping firewood, the other on his arm, caused by a boil. He further stated that he had never been in Hongkong in his life before the 6th March, 1887. I allege that all these statements are false, and I say that Li Loi, the first defendant, laid the information in the case; that he attended in Court throughout almost the whole of the proceedings, and instructed the prisoner to appear in his behalf, and heard the greater part of the evidence that was given by the second prisoner. I say that the perjury, and subornation of perjury, were committed as part of the present charge of attempting to commit murder, and conspiring to commit murder.\n\nThe first witness for the prosecution was then called.\n\nChau Kai Ming-I am a sworn interpreter. I was present in Court on the 7th March and I interpreted in a case in which Chung Sam, U Shop, and Chang Chun, were charged before Mr. Wodehouse, Police Magistrate. The prisoners were charged with murder and burglary within the jurisdiction of the Emperor of China, in the 9th moon (October) of last year. I interpreted the evidence that was given by a man called Leung Yow. He is the second defendant in this case. As far as I can remember, the second defendant said, that on the 12th day of the moon he went to visit his aunt, Fu Ma She, that she invited him to stay all night, and he accepted her invitation; that he slept in the second depth of that house; that about the beginning of the third watch he was awakened by a great noise in the third depth. He got up and attempted to walk into the third depth but was prevented by two or three men. He went back to his bed and sat there. At the beginning of the fourth watch, he saw about twenty men pass him, carrying mat bags. One of them came up to him, put a mat bag over his head, and he was carried away and put on board a boat. There were six men in the boat, excluding himself, three rowing and three keeping guard over him. The three men keeping guard over him were the three defendants in the first case. They demanded $3,000 of him, but the second defendant said they would wait till they arrived at a shed. He was afterwards taken to a shed at Whampoa, a place in Chun-tak, not the Whampoa in Canton. When he was taken to the shed he had his hands tied behind his back, chains put on his legs, and he was fastened to a peg in the ground. The three defendants were constantly by his side. The first and third defendants in the other case demanded $3,000 from him. They took him to be the son of Fu Ma She, and requested him to write a letter to her, asking for the sum. This he refused to do. He was afterwards released, at the request of the second defendant in the other case, who said he knew he was not the son of Fu Ma She. He then put him in a boat, in which was only a woman about thirty years of age, and she rowed him back to Kwei-chow. When asked if he was Chan Aynt, he said he had never heard the name; that he had never been in any way connected with any Chinese officials before the 12th of the second moon; that he had never been in a prison; that he had but two marks on his person, one on the left temple, caused by wood chopping, and one on the right arm caused by a boil. I was called as a witness in those proceedings. I looked at the arm of the second prisoner, and found thereon tattoo marks of the Chinese character \"To\" meaning \"thief.\" It was not very distinct, but I have no doubt that it was that character.\n\nMr. Francis-What do you mean by tattoo marks?-Marks tattooed by a needle. They were of a blue colour.\n\nMr. W. M. B. Arthur said-I am first clerk to the Magistracy. I have been keeping the document signed by Li Loi requesting the apprehension of seven men. The document came to me from the Government officers in the usual course. I have before me a warrant for the arrest of certain fugitive criminals. The writing in black ink is that of Mr. de Silva, fourth clerk to the Magistracy. The writing in red ink is by myself.\n\n2. 190\n\nThe warrant was issued in consequence of the receipt of the other document. I know the defendant Li Loi. During the proceedings, he has been constantly about the Court. I have not seen him seated at the table, but I have seen him in Court.\n\nChun Kai Ming, re-called, said-During the proceedings, I saw the first defendant seated next to Mr. Caldwell, the solicitor for the prosecution. He said something in a very loud tone to Mr. Caldwell. During the time he was not seated by Mr. Caldwell, he was either behind the dock or stationed a few paces behind Mr. Caldwell.\n\nCross-examined by Mr. Francis-Mr. Dennys was seated at the table and was also a few paces from the defendant. There were several other persons near Mr. Caldwell.\n\nFrancis Xavier d'Almada e Castro stated-I am a clerk in the employ of Mr. Caldwell, solicitor in this Colony. I wrote the English words in the document sent by Li Loi, applying for the arrest of the men. I do not remember seeing the Chinese words written in the document. I did not see it signed. I left the blanks to be filled in.\n\nShi Ping Kong said-I am a clerk in Mr. Caldwell's office. I wrote the Chinese characters in the document by the instruction of Mr. Caldwell. I cannot say positively that I saw Li Loi sign the document. It looks like his writing but I cannot say where it was signed.\n\nHe said\n\nMr. D. E. Caldwell was next called-I am a solicitor practising in this Colony. I saw Li Loi sign the document.\n\nMr. Dennys-Do you know the meaning of the characters?\n\nMr. Caldwell.-No, I do not.\n\nMr. Dennys-I must confess I am surprised that you, who know Chinese far better than I do, should not know the meaning of these characters.\n\nMr. Caldwell-I know only about 12 characters. The document was signed in my office in the Queen's Road. It was signed in duplicate. One I forwarded to the Colonial Secretary, the other I sent to Mr. Maclean. I think I first saw the first defendant on 15th February last, the day before this document was drawn up. From my own knowledge, I cannot say where he lives. I was not aware that there was a Chinese gunboat in the harbour named Chung Was. I do not remember hearing the second prisoner state that he went on board that boat after meeting on shore with the cook, a friend of his. I saw the second defendant the day he came into court but not to speak to him. The only communication I had with him was in Mr. Arthur's room in the Magistracy, on the day of the trial. There were several gentlemen present in connection with the case, among them Li Loi, but I cannot say which of them gave me the instructions to call the second defendant as a witness. I cannot say positively whether or not it was Li Loi who instructed me to put him in the witness box. I remember Li Loi being seated beside me in court during the examination of the second prisoner. He spoke very loudly to me and gesticulated. He seemed to be angry and excited. So far as I remember, the words he said signified \"Do not let them go,\" alluding to the three prisoners in the dock. The evidence about the mark on the arm had been given before he spoke; at least it was after the discovery of the marks.\n\nCross-examined by Mr. Francis-I have been engaged in several rendition cases. The persons who come down in these cases always bring credentials from the Viceroy. I was thoroughly satisfied that Li Loi was authorised by the Chinese Government, otherwise I would not have acted. Several gentlemen came down in this matter, and from Li Loi's own statement and the corroboration of those who were with him, I had no occasion to doubt him. I was also satisfied because of the introduction he brought.\n\nMr. Donnys-I am not in a position to finish this case to-day. I think, however, that I have brought forward sufficient evidence to ask for a remand until such further time as your Worship shall think fit. I do not wish to appear unreasonable, but I should wish the case remanded for a week. My object in asking for this is that I wish to call as witnesses the defendants concerned in the other case, and who will probably be dismissed on Monday.",

        "content_text": "whatever to do with this case. If you believe the evidence of Chan Ayut you have a right to call upon the prisoners for their defence, but you have no right to adjourn this case from week to week till the other case is finished. These defendants have nothing to do with that case. These three men before your Worship are on trial for their lives, and their case ought to be conducted in a legal, formal, and proper manner; and I submit, with all respect to your Worship, that the case is not being conducted in such a manner when it is being adjourned from week to week. If your Worship believes the evidence of Chun Ayut, if your Worship believes that Dr. Hartigan, Mr. Chun Kai Ming and Ho Ki have all gone into the box and told deliberate falsehoods, the prisoners will make their defence, but if not I submit there is no case against them. Your Worship has been a long time in this colony, and you know how difficult it is for a man to defend himself against officials who are in pay of the Chinese Government, because it is almost impossible to get witnesses to come forward and give evidence when they know that their relations are in the power of the Chinese Government, and the witnesses themselves may be spirited away before they can go down to the Supreme Court. I can assure your Worship that numbers of people have spoken to me in the street, knowing that this was a trumped-up charge, but who are unwilling to come into this court and give evidence, because they know that their relatives would pay the penalty with their lives. If you believe the evidence of Chun Ayat then the case ought to be proceeded with at once and the prisoners allowed to make their defence. The defence which I intend to make will be the proving of an alibi, and if this case is again adjourned fresh charges may be brought by the Chinese Government which it will be impossible for me to disprove, when the Government know exactly where the defendants were at such and such a date.\n\nHis Worship—I cannot agree in any way, with the statement made by Mr. Dennys with regard to the promises I have made during the hearing of the case. The action I have taken throughout these proceedings I have made public, and if I pass over what Mr. Dennys has said with regard to the promises I have made, it is not that I agree with him, but because I do not consider them worthy of further notice. I have here before me in writing the course that was pursued:—“Mr. Dennys applied to have Li Loi arrested on charge of subornation of perjury and Leung Ayow for perjury. Mr. Caldwell applied for time to bring rebutting evidence. The Magistrate declined to take any action in the matter but granted time to allow the solicitors for the defence to take what action they thought fit. The case to be remanded till the following day. In the interval action taken by a private individual, and Li Loi and Leung Ayow charged with subornation of perjury and perjury. Mr. Dennys asks for release of defendants. The Magistrate declines to take any action until the case against Leung Ayow is concluded and proposes to adjourn the case from week to week. Case came on again. Mr. Quincey states that perjury case is still proceeding. The case again remanded. Mr. Dennys on behalf of second and third defendants, and Mr. Holmes, on behalf of first, ask for their discharge. The application refused. Mr. Dennys, and Mr. Holmes ask for bail. Caldwell objects. Bail refused. The Magistrate, in reference to the application of Mr. Francis to be allowed to bring further evidence, in the event of Leung Ayow being convicted of perjury, gives formal notice that should such event occur, he will consider that a prima facie case has been made out.” I am now informed that the €430 is no prima facie case. I am now committed for trial. I cannot believe that the solicitors for the defence think that the other case is yet concluded.\n\nA criminal case is not concluded until the prisoner is either found guilty or acquitted. I shall therefore wait until the case is concluded and remand this one until Monday, April 4th, at 10 o'clock.\n\nPage 363\n\nPage 363\n\nPage 363\n\nThe Daily Press.\n\n29th April.\n\nTHE RENDITION CASE.\n\nChing Sam and Tsang Chun, whose rendition is asked for by the Chinese Government on a charge of burglary and murder, were brought up on remand.\n\nMr. Caldwell appeared for the prosecution. Mr. Dennys for the second prisoner, and Mr. Holmes for the first.\n\nMr. Caldwell stated that Mr. Francis, Q.C., who had appeared for the prosecution on the last occasion, had been called away to Shanghai.\n\nIt was decided to proceed in Mr. Francis's absence.\n\nInspector Quincey gave evidence as to the death of Shap, a prisoner in the same case, who committed suicide in the gaol on Wednesday night.\n\nMr. Dennys then addressed the court on the points of law raised by Mr. Francis on the last occasion and afterwards proceeded to analyse the evidence for the prosecution, his address occupying two hours and a half. With reference to the contention of the prosecution that the court had merely to satisfy itself that a prima facie case was made out and could not enter into evidence for the defence he argued that the Magistrate was bound to satisfy himself absolutely that the prisoners were guilty before committing them to gaol pending the Governor's orders, the Governor being in this matter merely an executive officer and bound to deliver the prisoners up if the Magistrate found them guilty; that the Magistrate was bound to hear and take into consideration the defence if there was any case to answer; but that in the present case the prosecution had utterly broken down and that the prisoners were therefore entitled to their discharge. With regard to the first point he said he thought it was utterly impossible to find any precedent outside Hongkong that would exactly guide his Worship, but several cases were heard here last year in which a man named Chung Chee was claimed by the Chinese authorities for various offences. The prosecution in the first case was conducted by Mr. Ewens, and the prisoner was defended by Mr. Wotton. Evidence was there gone into on behalf of the prisoner in the case in which Mr. Ewens prosecuted, and the prisoner was discharged, or at any rate he was not given up on the charge investigated by the Magistrate. Mr. Caldwell appeared for the prosecution in the other cases brought against the same prisoner, and those cases he believed were proved to the satisfaction of the Magistrate. In those cases the Magistrate allowed the witnesses for the prosecution to be cross-examined, and witnesses to be called on behalf of the prisoner. In this case it had been contended that the Magistrate could not accept on behalf of the prisoner any evidence whatever, and a very eminent authority on extradition, Clark, was quoted. Nothing could be stronger than the law as laid down by Mr. Clark, and he (Mr. Dennys) would quite agree with all that had been said by the learned counsel (Mr. Francis) with regard to that if this case came under the extradition law as applied in England under the act of 1870 and the extension of that Act in 1873. But section 17 of the Act said the Act might be applied with certain modifications by Order in Council to any British possession. That had not been done with regard to Hongkong, and the law by which the court was governed was contained in Ordinance 2 of 1850 and the explanatory Ordinance 2 of 1871. Before going into those Ordinances he would ask his Worship's attention to the Treaty referred to in the second Ordinance. By the Treaty of Tientsin, section 21, two different things were provided for, one referring to criminal subjects of China who take refuge in Hongkong, and the other to Chinese offenders who take refuge on board British ships at the open ports of China.\n\nPage 364\n\nPage 364\n\nPage 364",

        "content_text": "The Daily Press.\n\nHONGKONG. MAY 24TH, 1887.\n\nIN ORIGINAL JURISDICTION.\n\nMOTION FOR A WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS.\n\nMr. Dennys applied for a writ of Habeas Corpus in the matter of Leong Afu, one of the defendants in the Chinese Rendition case, and who is at the present time detained in Victoria Gaol. Mr. Dennys stated that he was unable to secure the services of counsel. There were at present only three counsel acting as such in the Colony; of these Mr. Francis was prosecuting in this case. Mr. Brereton stated that he was retained by the Chinese Government, and Dr. Ho Kai had been applied to by the Chinese Government but had refused to act for either side. He therefore put in an affidavit which he had filed.\n\nThe affidavit stated that Leong Afu was at present detained in Victoria Gaol under a warrant signed by Mr. Wodehouse, although the said Leong Afu had not been found guilty of any offence against the laws of this Colony or those of China. He had been charged with others with robbery and murder committed in Chinese territory on the night of 9th October, 1886. That he had stated that the evidence of Li Loi and Leong Ayau, the chief witnesses for the prosecution, had been guilty of subornation of perjury and of perjury; and at the request of the Magistrate had called witnesses to prove that Leong Ayau was not the person he represented himself to be, but a convicted and branded criminal. He had afterwards charged Li Loi and Leong Ayau with perjury, and that while that case was proceeding, without any previous notice to himself or any enquiry as to how far he was able to support his charge, the Acting Attorney-General stopped the further hearing of the case against Li Loi. That Leong Ayau had been committed for trial at the Supreme Court, but that the Acting Attorney-General caused him to be discharged by proclamation. That at the conclusion of the case against Leong Afu, although the Magistrate stated he believed Leong Ayau's evidence to be unworthy of belief, he (the Magistrate), acting under instructions from the Government, refused to release Leong Afu. That he had since applied to the Acting Governor for the immediate discharge of Leong Afu but had been informed that it had been decided to surrender the accused to the Chinese Authorities. That the Acting Governor, so far as he was aware, had made no enquiries as to the guilt or innocence of Leong Afu nor examined any witnesses who could give evidence in his behalf.\n\nMr. Dennys then put in and read the warrant by virtue of which Leong Afu is detained in Victoria Gaol.\n\nMr. Dennys based his argument against the accused being given up on article 2 of the Treaty of Tientsin, which he said distinctly stated that a prisoner should only be delivered over to the Chinese authorities when he had been tried and found guilty of the offence imputed to him. Leong Afu had not been found guilty, and therefore his Lordship would be quite justified in granting the writ asked for.\n\nHis Lordship granted the writ and adjourned the further hearing of the case to 30th May.\n\nPage 199\n\nThe Daily Press.\n\nHONGKONG, June 1st, 1887.\n\nTHE CHINESE RENDITION CASE-APPLICATION FOR DISCHARGE OF LEUNG AFU.\n\nMr. Dennys applied for the discharge of Leung Afu, one of the defendants in the Chinese rendition case.\n\nMr. J. J. Francis, Q.C., instructed by Messrs. Caldwell and Wilkinson, appeared on behalf of the Chinese Government to oppose the discharge; Mr. Wodehouse, the Magistrate by virtue of whose warrant the defendant is detained, appeared on his own behalf; and the Acting Attorney-General watched the case on behalf of the Government.\n\nMr. Dennys objected to Mr. Francis appearing for the Chinese Government. They had no locus standi in the matter. The case was simply between the Supreme Court and the Gaol.\n\nThe Court decided in favour of Mr. Francis being allowed to appear for the Chinese Government.\n\nMr. Dennys said he applied for the return of a writ of certiorari and for the discharge from custody of Leung Afu as he was not detained under any legal warrant of conviction or committal. The warrant was bad on the face of it. It did not cite any offence over which the Magistrate had jurisdiction. Again, the warrant said \"whereas Leung Afu having been duly convicted, &c.,\" but the defendant had not been convicted of any offence.\n\nThe Acting Chief Justice said that the Magistrate had committed the man to Gaol pending the orders of the Governor.\n\nMr. Dennys said he was quite prepared to show that the warrant of commitment must contain a recital of the conviction.\n\nMr. Francis said that it was the usual practice for the writs for certiorari and habeas corpus to be applied for at the same time and both dealt with together.\n\nThe Acting Chief Justice said he did not see why this rule had not been followed in this case. Mr. Dennys said on that point he must ask for the consideration of the court. He then went on to say that he should show to their Lordships that the Magistrate had not done his duty inasmuch as he had refused to hear witnesses who were willing to give evidence on behalf of the defendant. He should also call their Lordships' attention to his affidavit which, so far as he was aware, had not been contradicted.\n\nMr. Wodehouse said that his object in appearing was that if the writ of certiorari were granted, certain documents as well as the depositions be put in. These documents would show how he was somewhat influenced in the decision he had come to in the case.\n\nHis Lordship said he thought the documents might be put in.\n\nMr. Francis said that he thought all documents having reference to the case should be admitted.\n\nMr. Dennys said he had no objection to the documents being put in, but as he had not seen them it was impossible for him to say whether they had to do with the case or not. Continuing, he said that under Ordinance 2 of 1871 and Ordinance 2 of 1850, the Magistrate was held to be in the position of a jury as regards the prisoner, and when any doubt existed, that doubt was to benefit the prisoner. He would like to call their Lordships' attention to the three phrases in the second Ordinance, \"investigation,\" \"probable cause of belief,\" and \"proof of guilt.\" With reference to the words \"proof of guilt,\" he thought the same construction must be put on them as was done by the Privy Council in the case of the Attorney-General v. Kwok Shing. The Magistrate in trying the case must have such a proof of guilt as would justify him in committing the prisoner had the offence been committed within the jurisdiction of Hongkong. There might be links in the chain of evidence wanting, but there must be no reasonable doubt in his mind that those links would be found when the case was heard against him in that Court. He would ask their Lordships to refer to the affidavit before them, and they would see that there was no such proof of guilt in this case. The Magistrate had said distinctly that if he were a jury, he would not convict upon such evidence.\n\nThe Acting Chief Justice-The Magistrate does not exactly say that. He is not in the same position as a jury. He says if the final decision were to rest upon him, he might perhaps give the prisoner the benefit of the doubt.\n\nMr. Dennys said that their Lordships could not hold that the Magistrate had reasonable grounds of belief that the defendant was guilty. One witness had sworn that in the middle of the night he had seen through four solid walls. At the time that statement was made, they had not gone far enough to see what were the facts of the case, but when other witnesses were called and the position of these walls determined, his statement meant that or nothing. From his own statement as to where he was sleeping and from the place stated afterwards in evidence as the spot where the men broke into the house, it was perfectly plain that the witness, if he looked perfectly straight, saw through four solid walls, and if he looked crooked through five. Could the Magistrate with such evidence as that before him...",

        "content_text": "96\n\nSun Shing had clusters of lanterns hanging in the arches, and the Medical Hall had strings of lanterns. The Pacific Mail Company's office was tastefully decorated with rows of lanterns, with the American flag and the Union Jack floating at each end, and small flags of the two nations crossed in the centre. Crossing over the street and proceeding eastwards, passing the Victoria Hotel, already described, we come to Messrs. Turner and Co.'s hong, where there was a pretty arrangement of Chinese lanterns. The China Fire Insurance Company had banners hanging from each window, and \"God bless our Queen\" worked in small oil lamps in front of the verandah. Acbee's furniture store had small coloured oil lamps along the balustrading of the verandah, and strings of Japanese lanterns. Messrs. Framjee Hormusjee & Co. had large clusters of coloured lamps hanging in each of the verandah arches, five on each floor, with stars of small coloured oil lamps on the pillars of the upper floor with spear heads of the same description of lamps on the end pillars, the whole forming a very beautiful display. Rose and Co. had a row of lanterns in front and Messrs. Wotton and Deacon a double row. Messrs. Lane, Crawford and Co.'s premises were tastefully decorated with two \"V. Rs.\" worked in flowers on the top of the porch, lanterns hanging in the porchway underneath, and clusters of lamps on the pediments.\n\nWestward of Pottinger-street one of the most striking illuminations was that of the Stag Hotel, which had a gilt framed oil painting of Her Majesty, with lamps round the arches of the verandahs of all four storeys, and a good display of lanterns on the side of the house. The Man On Insurance Co. also had an effective display, a large number of lanterns being used, many of them of unusual patterns. The Ko Shing Theatre had a \"V. R.\" in glass transparency over the door and the year \"1887.\" Lai Hing and Co. had a gaudy illumination, \"1887\" in the middle with the \"V\" on one side and \"R\" on the other. Other houses illuminated were The Land We Live In tavern, the Rose, Shamrock, and Thistle, the London Hotel, W. Peterson's boarding house, the German Tavern, and the Grand Hotel. The Fire Brigade Station had on the front face of the tower a design in small oil lamps - \"1837-1887\" in the middle, with the \"V\" and \"R\" on the right and left respectively. The Queen's-road side of the building had coloured lanterns. On Chinese establishments which had lit up we read the names of Ses Woo, tailor, Wang Hing, jeweller, Wing Hing, dealer in porcelain, Yu Chong, also dealer in porcelain, Tang Cheong, tailor, Kum Kee, Chinese shipping agent, E. Sing, printer, Fuk On, \"Agent in Sailors and Fireman,\" Yip Sang, dealer in curios, Woo Choong, compradore, Hung Shing, curio dealer, King Wo Shing, Him Wo, Ah Nam, tailor, Yee On, tailor, Yen Sing, curio dealer, Nam Hing Loong, compradore, Achan, photographer, Nam Shing, tailor, Yong Heng, dealer in Chinese goods, Aping, tailor, Ahing, tailor, Song Yuen, photographer, Sun Shing, curio dealer, whose show was considerably above the average; Wah Loong, dealer in Chinese goods, who also made a good show; Fung Hing, tailor, Teen Seng, printer, Seng Yuen, portrait painter, and Sam Hing Street, who had quite a brilliant display. Our enumeration, however, gives the names of only a small fraction of those who took part in the illumination and includes none of the large native hongs who have not their name in English on their signboard. The Chinese participation in the illumination as regards shops and houses, was very general, and in almost every street the Kai fong had done something in the way of erecting arches or sheds for the numerous entertainments and exhibitions of marionettes.\n\nGoing up Ice House Street, we noticed a square of white lanterns at the top of the Ice House, and at Afong's studio lanterns in clusters. Both Messrs. Gibb, Livingston and Co.'s and Messrs. Carlowitz and Co.'s hongs were brilliantly illuminated with rows of lanterns, and looking down Duddell-street steps the illuminations of the same houses on their other side were seen, as were the lanterns which lighted up the front of Messrs. Reiss & Co.'s premises. A fine gas illumination at Messrs. Noronha and Co's, in Zetland street, also showed up well from this neighbourhood. The design was \"Q. V., star, R. I.\" with the figures \"50\" beneath. The Masonic Hall had the square and compasses on its northern face, and the Masonic Club a similar design in red and white framed in blue lamps on the north, and on the south side the monogram V. R. in red lanterns above the entrance. Going along Albert-road the Public Offices were found in darkness, but the top of St. John's Cathedral tower was illuminated with blue lanterns and formed a conspicuous object from many points of view. St. John's Place was almost covered with lanterns, chiefly white and red, which had a most effective appearance standing out from the surrounding darkness from the few points from which they were visible.\n\nGovernment House had on its northern face the motto \"Domine salvam fac Reginam,\" illuminated by gas in globes in 4ft. letters; a 6ft. crown, two 7ft. stars, \"V. R.,\" two masonic stars, a half star of 10ft. diameter in the centre of the top cornice, two half-stars at the corners of the cornice, and a line of jets up the sides and along the top cornice; the effect of all this light artistically arranged was very fine. The other side of Government House was not illuminated, but the roadway, with numerous lanterns dotted about in the trees and on the bank of the Public Gardens and the small oil lamps running along the walls, was like a picture in fairy land. The entrance to Government House was decorated for day effect with imposing shields and trophies of flags. The Royal Artillery Mess in College Gardens was well lit up with lanterns and had a device springing from the roof.\n\nIn Stanley-street Messrs. Rozario and Co. had a gas illumination showing \"R. & Co.\" and the Oriental Dispensary, and Messrs. Dunn, Melbye & Co.'s and Mr. Brandt's establishments were illuminated with lanterns. In D'Aguilar-street Messrs. Gilman and Co. had a transparency over the door with the name of the firm and a large mass of lanterns. Messrs. Grossman and Co.'s hong was also lit up with lanterns, and amongst the occupants of Club Chambers on the opposite side of the street lanterns were hung out in profusion by Messrs. Justus Lembke & Co., Mr. Naudin, the Telephone Exchange, and the Punjom Mining Co. Messrs. Guedes and Co., at the corner of Wellington-street, had red and white lanterns on the top floor. Messrs. D. D. Oflia and Co. had lanterns arranged in the arches of the verandah and in lines below, and Mrs. Heymans, dressmaker, hung out the red ensign grouped with two French flags in the centre, and lanterns along the verandah. A large proportion of the Chinese in this street had also illuminated, amongst them Kwong Shing, contractor, Bing Shing, bootmaker, Chan Hang, printer, Yee Hing, contractor, Ling Atin, contractor, Wah Suo, picture frame maker, Hung Qua, portrait painter, who showed a specimen of his skill in a portrait of the Queen; Pow Chin, contractor, Sang Cheong, and Chee Sing, printer.\n\nIn Lower Wyndham Street the Club Germania was very tastefully illuminated with Japanese lanterns. The entrance was lined out in red and white lanterns, with one bearing the Union Jack in the centre and at the doorway the German and British flags were draped. Above was the red ensign with the German flag on each side. The remainder of the building was covered with white lanterns. The opposite buildings, occupied by Messrs. Raedecker & Co. and the China Mail, showed strings of coloured lanterns on the verandah of the upper storey, and many of the houses further up the hill were similarly decorated, one Chinese house occupied by Europeans, however, having flags and lamps stretching far across the road. The parapet of the tower of St. Paul's College was fringed with coloured lanterns, and from the summit rose a lofty cross formed by white Japanese lanterns, which from its commanding altitude was very conspicuous. Darkness reigned at the corner of D'Aguilar-street, but a very showy and well-designed arch was erected to form the entrance to Glenealy.\n\nThis was of imperial yellow picked out with leaf decorations and with green pediments. Over the archway were the words in scarlet on a blue ground \"Salve Imperatricem,\" and the face of the structure was ornamented with gilt stars and the arms of the three kingdoms on shields. Numerous coloured lanterns were suspended, and when illuminated it proved exceedingly effective. The road up Glenealy was lined throughout with various coloured lanterns, and the rockery in the centre half way up was covered with a pyramidal structure of lanterns. Mr. Bottomley's house and grounds at the foot of Glenealy were most tastefully lit up with lanterns and little glass lamps; the latter glittering among the trees had a very charming effect. Upper Wyndham Street and Hollywood Road were partially illuminated, but without any general design. Messrs. B. Mijran & Co., S. J. David & Co., Messrs. Kaw Hong Take & Co., and Messrs. Mirza Ebrahim & Co. were among the most brilliant, and further on several Parsee firms, Messrs. B. N. Mehta & Co., Tata & Co., Mehta & Co., and others, had quite a large display of lanterns in various designs.\n\n535\n\n9.",

Since the 3rd day of October, 1884, the said Leung Afu has been residing on the top floor of house No. 61 East Street, Victoria aforesaid, and I myself have also resided in the same place.\n\n4. The said Leung Afu suffers from rheumatism in his legs, and during the whole of the 9th moon last year he was so ill that he was confined to his bed and could only walk with very great pain and difficulty.\n\n5. I can say positively of my own knowledge that the said Leung Afu did not leave this colony during the said 9th moon, and that while he was ill he was constantly attended by a named Fung Sai Tsum.\n\n## Doctor\n\nAnd I make this solemn declaration &c.\n\n**CHEONG SAM**\n\n(Her X mark.)\n\n## F.\n\nI, Wong Ho, of Victoria in the island of Hongkong, widow, do hereby solemnly and sincerely declare and say as follows:-\n\n1.

The said prisoner has been my protector for more than ten years, since the death of my husband, and I have always known him by the name of Leung Afu and by no other name.\n\n3. The said Leung Afu has been living in Hongkong since his return from Annam in 1884.\n\n4. The said Leung Afu suffers from rheumatism in his legs and during the whole of the 9th moon last year he was unable to walk without great pain and difficulty and most of the time was confined to his bed on the top floor of No. 61, East Street, Victoria aforesaid.\n\nAnd I make this solemn declaration &c.\n\n**WONG HO**\n\n(Her X mark.)\n\n## G.\n\nI, LI Akit, of Victoria in the Island of Hongkong, coolie-house keeper, do hereby solemnly and sincerely declare and say as follows:-\n\n1.

I know and am well acquainted with Leung Afu who is charged in this case under the name of Tsang Achun.\n\n3. To my own knowledge the said Leung Afu resided from the 3rd moon of last year up to the date of his arrest on the top floor of No. 61 East Street, Victoria aforesaid.\n\n4. The said Leung Afu was ill in the 9th moon of last year and on the evenings of the 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th and 14th days of the said 9th moon I visited him and assisted him to prepare his opium pipe, as he was too ill to do it himself.

I reside at No. 90 Tank Lane, Victoria aforesaid, and am the wife of a man Chan Tik Cheung.\n\n2. The said Chan Tik Cheung is at present detained in Victoria Gaol, where he is under remand on a charge of burglary and murder in Chinese Territory.\n\n3. While the charge against the said Chan Tik Cheung was proceeding before H. E. Wodehouse, Esq., one of the magistrates of this Colony, a man named Ho Kai gave evidence on behalf of the three prisoners, of whom the said Chan Tik Cheung was one.\n\n4. The said Ho Kai gave material evidence for the defence of the said prisoners and upon the above-named Leong Ayau being charged with perjury before E. Maclean, Esq., another of the magistrates of this Colony, the said Ho Kai was examined for the prosecution and gave material evidence against the prisoner Leong Ayau.\n\n5. In the said charge of burglary and murder preferred against Chan Tik Cheung and others, a person described as Li Loi signed the information upon which His Excellency the Acting Governor directed warrants to issue for the arrest of the said Chan Tik Cheung and others.\n\n6. During the prosecution of the said Chan Tik Cheung and others, the said Li Loi appeared in Court and instructed the solicitor who was conducting the case of the prosecution.\n\n7. On Saturday, the 26th day of March, 1887, the said Leong Ayau was committed for trial to the Supreme Court on a charge of perjury committed in the said case against Chan Tik Cheung and others.\n\n8. On the following day, that is on Sunday the 27th day of March, at about 1 a.m., the above-mentioned Ho Kai came to my house and in the presence of Chow Afung and others informed me that since he had been examined as a witness in the case of Regina v. Leong Ayau the above-named Li Loi had sent a large number of soldiers to Sam Kwai, the native village of the Ho Kai, that he had arrested two of the gentry, two ti-poes, the said Ho Kai's elder brother and several of the clansmen of the said Ho Kai, about 20 persons in all.\n\n9. The said Ho Kai further said that the said Li Loi had billeted about 100 soldiers in the ancestral temple of the said Ho Kai at Sam Kwai aforesaid and that the family of the said Ho Kai were compelled to supply the said soldiers with food.\n\n10. The said Ho Kai further said that he had been provided with clothes and a passage to Singapore and that he could not attend any further in Court to give evidence on behalf of my husband or against the said Leong Ayau, as if he did so the said Li Loi would punish him and his relations.\n\n11. When the said Ho Kai said this he was armed with a loaded revolver.\n\n12. I verily believe the statement of the said Ho Kai to be true and that he is prevented by the said Li Loi from attending before the Supreme Court in the trial of the said Leong Ayau to give evidence.\n\nAnd I make, &c.\n\n**NG AYUK**\n\n(Her X mark.)",

And the said Li Loi afterwards charged the said Leong a Yau with perjury and Leong a Yau with subornation of perjury before Ernest Thackean, another of the Magistrates of this Colony.\n\nBeing enquired into by the said Ernest Thackean and without any previous notice to myself as to how far I was prepared to support my charge, the Acting Attorney General, Edward Dawe Ackroyd directed the said Ernest Thackean to stop the hearing of the charge against the said Li Loi.\n\nThe said Leong a Yau was committed for trial at the Supreme Court by the said Ernest Thackean and I asked the said Acting Attorney General through the Crown Solicitor to have the said Leong a Yau tried before a special jury and stated that I was prepared to instruct counsel to appear and prosecute the said Leong a Yau.\n\n## \n10.

The symptoms were almost identical with those of the plague, and there is only too much reason to believe that this is the commencement of the disease in the hitherto uninfected eastern district. The agent of the Messageries Maritimes Company issued the following express on Wednesday: To order to avoid sanitary difficulties in further ports the steamer Oceanien, leaving at 2 p.m., will take neither passengers nor cargo.\n\n18th May: The continuation of the rain on Thursday was hailed with great satisfaction, and both plague and water famine, from which we have been suffering, will doubtless in a few days entirely disappear. There is some indication that the plague is already abating and that the conditions favourable to its development having been removed by the rain, the port will soon be declared free from the disease. The total number of deaths reported from noon on Wednesday to noon yesterday was 20, of which 2 occurred on the Hygeia, 9 in Kennedy town Hospital, and 9 in outside districts. There were only 10 new cases yesterday, 3 being admitted to the Hygeia, and 7 to the Kennedy town Hospital. 44 cases are at present under treatment,\n\nThe following circular has been issued by the Sanitary Board for the guidance of all concerned, and has been circulated among the police and sanitary officers:\n\nObservations to be made by officers conducting house to house visitation:\n\n1. See if the patient is feverish. \n2. Look for swellings (buboes) under the arms, on the groin, on the neck, above the elbow. \n3. Observe if the patient has an anxious expression and if he is walking with a tottering gait.\n\nThe rainfall registered to 10 a.m. on Wednesday, for the preceding twenty-four hours, was 0.26 inch, and for the twenty-four hours ending 10 a.m. on Thursday 2.23 inches. There were heavy showers later in the day.\n\nOur Saigon correspondent telegraphs that Hongkong has been declared an infected port and vessels arriving at Saigon are subjected to six days' quarantine.\n\nPRECAUTIONS AT MACAO.\n\nThe following order is published in the Macao Boletim Oficial:\n\nBubonic plague having appeared in epidemic form in the neighbouring ports of Canton and Hongkong and causing a considerable number of deaths amongst the Chinese population of those two cities;\n\nAt the Police Court on Tuesday there were several cases of failure to report the occurrence of the disease, and doubtless a few convictions and fines will make landlords more alive to the vital necessity of bringing the cases to the attention of the authorities without the slightest delay. Ning Kin and Lan Chuk, widows, the occupants respectively of Nos. 72 and 74, Market Street, were charged by Inspector Quincey before Mr. H. E. Wodehouse with neglecting to report the outbreak of plague in their houses. The Inspector stated that he visited the places and found men suffering from the disease, whom he had removed to the Hygeia. The symptoms were very pronounced at the time and there would be no difficulty in identifying the disease. His Worship fined the first defendant $2 or fourteen days' and discharged the second. Lai You Chang, a teacher, for a similar neglect in respect to a case at 10, Wai Tak Lane, was fined $5 or in default 14 days' imprisonment.\n\nThe fire engines on Tuesday were engaged in flushing the sewers and drains of the Taiping-shan district from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. The water was pumped from the harbour by the floating engine up to the Hollywood Road level and from thence to the China Road. A good quantity of water was used. This operation will be continued to-day.\n\nDepartmental orders have also been issued calling upon the Chinese to keep their houses clean.\n\n19th May. It is regrettable to have to report that the plague has again increased and that both the numbers of deaths, admissions, and cases are larger than those of the previous day. It will be remembered that the returns on Thursday on the face of them showed a gratifying diminution of the disease, and the copious downfall of rain continuing it was confidently and naturally anticipated that this diminution would be even more pronounced yesterday. The official returns, however, up to noon on Friday show that in the twenty-four hours 25 deaths occurred, 7 were from noon on Thursday on board the Hygeia, 9 at Kennedy town Hospital, and 9 outside, as against a mortality of 21 on Thursday. The new cases were 29, viz, 12 on the Hygeia and 17 at Kennedy town, being an increase of 19. The total number of cases under treatment is 56 against 44 at the last report. This increase is not regarded by the authorities in a serious light, and no apprehensions are entertained that the disease is baffling the exertions made to stamp it out. In fact, the medical officers take a hopeful view and feel sure that the worst is now past. The increase is ascribed to the complete organisation which is operating for the detection of cases. On Friday twelve men from the Royal Engineers and twelve from the Shropshire Light Infantry were enrolled as special sanitary officers, which makes the staff numerically strong and adequate to the necessities of the work to be done. The house to house visitation is divided into sections, and it is almost impossible now that cases of plague can pass undiscovered.\n\nThe Manila authorities have prescribed 15 days' observation on all vessels arriving from this port.\n\nAt the Magistracy on Friday a hawker was charged with failing to report a case of plague which occurred in his house on the 17th inst. Defendant pleaded that he could not leave the premises, but Commander W. H. Hastings, before whom the case was heard, imposed a fine of $50 with an alternative of two months' hard labour.\n\n21st May,\n\nHaving received the advice of the Provincial Sanitary Board:\n\nI hereby order:\n\n1. That the supply of water to the public by boats stationed along the Praia Grande and in the inner harbour be continued with the greatest regularity.\n\n2. That the drains be flushed daily, especially in the districts occupied by the Chinese population, and more particularly the districts of Volong, San-kin, Sa-tong, Patane, Mong-ha, and the village of Barra.\n\n3. That the pavement of the slaughter house and its appendages be daily washed with salt water.\n\n4. That on the arrival of any vessel from Canton or Hongkong, including the steamers and launches of the regular lines, an officer of the Sanitary Board shall inspect the passengers, and especially the Chinese passengers, to ascertain if any of them are suffering from the bubonic plague or exhibit suspicious symptoms.\n\n5. That the commandant of the water police shall give the necessary directions in order that lorcha or other boats from Hongkong or Canton may not land any individual suspected to be suffering from the disease; and any case presenting its symptoms shall be detained on board until examined by an officer of the Sanitary Board, who shall be immediately informed.\n\n6. If any passenger be found to be suffering from bubonic plague, whether on board steamers or launches, such passenger shall not be landed; and if any case of the disease be found on a sailing vessel or boat propelled by oars the vessel shall be immediately to be immediately towed out of the harbour, and removed by a copious rainfall we may confidently anticipate the speedy disappearance of the evil result.\n\nGovernment Palace, Macao,\n\n15th May, 1894.\n\nThe Governor of the Province,\n\nJose M. da Horta e Costa.\n\nwork of soaching and disinfecting the localities\n\nfor development it was hoped that in a few days such an appreciable conquest of the disease would be achieved that no further danger need be anticipated. A certain section of the Chinese have now, however, attempted to frustrate all these efforts, and are determined to assert aggressively the ignorance and stupidity which peculiarly belong to the multitude of the natives. It will be remembered that one of the first acts of the permanent committee was to order the removal of all patients from the Tung Wah Hospital to the Hygeia, and the next wise edict was that no patients were to be sent there, but removed direct to the bulk. There was at the time much grumbling and opposition to this course, the patients themselves, with the instinct of their race, objecting, sometimes violently to their removal to the Hygeia and their treatment by Western skill and science. It appears that this feeling of resentment has been simmering and increasing during the past few days, and on Saturday it broke bounds and completely disorganised the work of cleansing, disinfecting, and investigating, which was in progress. Mr. Lau Wai Chuen, a member of the Sanitary Board and also Chairman of the Tung Wah Hospital Committee, has, with an intelligence which unfortunately does not belong to all his countrymen, lost the Government his hearty co-operation in the measures they have taken. Some of his colleagues on the Hospital Committee, however, imbued with anti-foreign feeling, have resisted this policy, and by their influence have created a strong opposition among the native population to the work which the authorities are prosecuting with such vigour.\n\nMay 24, 1894.\n\nCHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT.\n\n198\n\n4.3\n\nAnother case occurred yesterday among the Portuguese community, the patient being taken to the Hygeia.\n\nSingapore has imposed nine days' quarantine, including the time occupied by the passage, rioting, the Government having met the Tung Wah Hospital Committee in their demand that there be no further danger of a renewal of the.\n\nMEETING AT THE TUNG WAH HOSPITAL\n\nA largely attended meeting of Chinese was held on Sunday at the Tung Wah Hospital, there being present about seventy members of the leading firms and some four hundred others. The Captain Superintendent of Police and the Colonial Surgeon attended the meeting.\n\nMr. Lau Wai Chuen occupied the chair. He said that many people had preferred a request that persons suffering from the plague should be allowed to be conveyed to Canton, if their relatives so desired, by special launches.\n\nThe Captain Superintendent of Police replied that he was instructed to state that information had that morning been received from Canton that the officials there would not allow persons suffering from the disease to be landed there. Mr. Lau Wai Chuen interpreted Mr. May's reply to the meeting, who received it with strong marks of dissatisfaction. Mr. Lau Wai Chuen, endeavoured to maintain order and said he would personally apply to the Government here and the officials at Canton in relation to the matter. He suggested that they should send a petition to Canton signed by all the leading firms of the colony.\n\nYesterday morning the sanitary officers reported a house supposed to be empty and made the horrible discovery that there were five corpses on the premises and four very serious cases, all exhibiting pronounced symptoms of the plague.\n\nYesterday morning one of the turnkeys in the Victoria Gaol reported himself sick and Dr. Marques, suspecting from the symptoms that the man was suffering from plague, sent him immediately to hospital. A prisoner in the gaol, who had been convicted for not reporting a case of plague, was also removed to the new Chinese Hospital for treatment.\n\nThe arrangements for the burial of victims of the plague do not appear to be quite satisfactory. A good deal of delay takes place before the bodies are interred, separate graves having to be dug in a rather rocky and refractory soil. The squatters on the land contiguous to this cemetery have petitioned the Government on the matter. Evidently a more suitable site ought to be selected.\n\nOn Saturday many of the houses visited were blockaded and the sanitary officers stoned, and in the afternoon all attempts to continue the house to house inspection had to be discontinued, the work being rendered exceedingly unsafe and difficult. A mob also collected at the Po Leung Kuk office and broke the windows, but was dispersed by the police before doing further damage. On Sunday, while a meeting at the Tung Wah Hospital was in progress, Mr. Lau was hurriedly sent for, news arriving that his hong was being wrecked. When Mr. Lau left the building he was surrounded by a howling mob of Chinese and had to be escorted by police to his residence. Mr. P. R. May, Captain Superintendent of Police, grasped the situation at once and sent a mounted contingent of armed Sikhs to the district, the presence of which fortunately prevented further disturbances.\n\nThe Government have so far met the Chinese opposition as to assent to the establishment of a temporary hospital under the management of the Tung Wah at the Glassworks, Kennedy town, to which all patients will be removed and where they will be treated by native practitioners, and the use of the Hygeia for the reception of plague patients will be discontinued.\n\nOn Sunday the house to house inspection was recommenced, the officers being protected by a strong police guard.\n\nSome cases have been reported on the mainland and proclamations have been issued prohibiting the immigration of Chinamen from Hongkong. At Haiphong several persons have fallen victims to the disease.\n\nThis suggestion was unanimously agreed to. The Captain Superintendent of Police said that rumours were current that people not suffering from the disease had been taken to the Hygeia and the Kennedy town Hospital, people who were not sick at all, but this could be at once disproved if any of those present would go with him to examine the patients, when it would be seen they were all sick people suffering from the plague. If those attacked were not segregated it would be impossible to prevent the spread of the disease, and he referred to the visitation of the plague in England two hundred years ago and the great mortality it caused. He suggested to the Chairman that he should advise the people that they should avoid overcrowding in their dwellings, and then the number of persons attacked by the disease would decrease.\n\nCONFERENCE AT GOVERNMENT HOUSE.\n\nAn important conference was held yesterday at Government House for the purpose of discussing the new turn events have taken and considering the course of action to be adopted in the immediate future. His Excellency Sir William Robinson presided, and there were also present H.E. Major-General Barker, Hon. J. H. Stewart Lockhart (Acting Colonial Secretary), Hon. N. G. Mitchell-Innes (Colonial Treasurer), Hon. Ho Kai, Dr. P. B. C. Ayres (Colonial Surgeon), Mr. F. H. May (Captain Superintendent of Police), Mr. J. J. R. Crook, Dr. James, Francis Q.C., Mr. J. A. M. S., Dr. Lan Wai Chuen. The meeting lasted for some time. The first business was the consideration of representations by the permanent committee of the Sanitary Board as to the inadequacy of the number of sanitary officers.\n\nApplication was made for the enrolling of 400 assistants for the work of cleansing and disinfecting.\n\nAt this stage of the proceedings a petition was presented from the residents in East Street complaining of the treatment they had received at the hands of the sanitary officers, entering their houses unexpectedly and frightening the children. The petitioners asked that attention should be given to this matter.\n\nAt this time news arrived that a mob was attacking Mr. Lau Wai Chuen's establishment in Bonham Strand, the Tung San Wo, and\n\nOn Sunday night everything was quiet and it was hoped there would be no renewal of the disturbances.\n\nThe decrease in the number of cases reported for the twenty-four hours up to noon on Sunday is, it is to be feared, due to interruption of the inspection rather than to any actual diminution of the disease.\n\nA notice was subsequently issued by the Committee of the Tung Wah Hospital stating that the Government has consented to allow all patients suffering from plague to be treated by the doctors of the Tung Wah Hospital. The notice also informs the people that they need not be alarmed by the visits of the sanitary officers, as any one found to be suffering from plague will now be removed to the Tung Wah's branch hospital instead of being taken to the Hygeia.\n\nAt the Police Court on Saturday there were some more cases of failure to report outbreaks of plague. Wong Chan, a married woman, was so charged. P.S. Moffat said that he visited the house of the defendant No. 64, First Street, at 11 a.m. on the 18th. In the first room visited he found a man lying dead, and another man (the husband of the defendant) was very ill in the same apartment. In another room in the Cookhouse he discovered a woman very ill lying under a bed, and in the cockloft a girl was seriously ill. All, both the dead and the living, had the symptoms of bubonic plague. Defendant pleaded that she was a very poor woman, and was fined $5, which she paid. Chan Chol, a shopkeeper at No. 6, Hung Lane, off Queen's Road West, was also charged with concealing a case. P.S. Smith said that he went into the premises and found a man suffering from plague. There were a number of persons present, who ran away on his arrival. A like fine was imposed.\n\nWe have heard of a somewhat curious case in connection with the plague. A few days ago a coolie was charged with cutting and wounding a companion and the hearing of the charge was remanded for a week by the sitting Magistrate, bail of $250 being allowed and procured. The following day the unlucky coolie was seized with the disease and died on board the Hygeia.\n\nThe Spanish Consul received the following official telegram despatch from Manila at 9:53 a.m. on Saturday: \"Hongkong has been declared an infected port, and vessels from thence are subject to fifteen days' quarantine.\"\n\nInformation has also been received that a proclamation will be issued to-day addressed to the Chinese explaining the objects of the preventative measures now being prosecuted and calling upon them to co-operate therein and assist the Government.\n\nMr. May stated at the meeting yesterday that he and his assistants had been welcomed and not obstructed in the different houses visited.\n\nThe following are the returns for the twenty-four hours to noon yesterday:\n\nHygeia, Kennedy town Hospital, City, Total, Decrease.\n\nAdmissions: 2, 3, 0, 5, \nDeaths: 3, 2, 0, 5, \nUnder treatment: 26, 20, 17, 63, 28\n\nThe Government, we understand, is fully prepared to support the permanent committee of the Sanitary Board to the utmost. There is a suspicion that jealousy between different sections of the Chinese is at the bottom of the recent disturbances and ill-feeling.\n\nTHE DISTURBANCES-POLICE COURT PROCEEDINGS.\n\nMr. H. E. Wodehouse was yesterday morning engaged at the Police Court in hearing several cases arising out of the disturbances in Chinatown reported in yesterday's issue.\n\nYesterday Yea Kay, a hawker, was charged with behaving in a disorderly manner in Po Yan Street.\n\nPage 403\n\n...",

EDUCATION.\n\nThe following Annual Reports on Education in Hongkong, for the year 1882, are published for general information.\n\nBy Command, FREDERICK STEWART, Acting Colonial Secretary, Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 3rd March, 1883.\n\nNo. 12. GOVERNMENT CENTRAL SCHOOL, HONGKONG, 17th February, 1883.\n\nSIR,I have the honour to forward to you the Annual Report and Returns, connected with this School, for 1882. In reviewing the events of the past year, the following facts deserve to be noted.\n\n(1) With the approval of His Excellency, the Officer Administering the Government, Euclid and Algebra have been restored to the Time Table. As these subjects with Mensuration occupy half of the 6 hours given weekly to Arithmetic, no loss accrues thereby to the Study of English.\n\n(2) Elementary Geography and Grammar are now taught in the lowest classes outside the Preparatory School, by which arrangement increased proficiency in English may reasonably be expected in the upper classes in two or three years' time.\n\n(3) A half-yearly examination was held at the end of July, in the work of the past 5 months, with the satisfactory result in the English School of 80.75 per cent. passing, although no time was given for special preparation.\n\n(4) By the return of Mr. MCKINNEY (4th Master) the School, for the first time, enjoyed for 4 months the benefit of the full complement of 6 European Masters; which rendered the discipline of the School highly efficient, and contributed to the satisfactory result at the Annual Examination.\n\n(5) On the other hand, toward the close of the year, the staff suffered severely by the temporary removal of Mr. ARTHUR (5th Master) to the Magistracy, on the score of ill-health; and by the permanent loss of Messrs. CHAN-KAI-MING, TSANG-KIT-FAN, LAU-HO and A. RAMJAHN. The interests of the School have, however, been secured by suitable appointments.\n\n(6) The statistics call for no remark, as they have for some years attained a somewhat fixed average; no alteration for the better can be made in the Roll Returns in the present building.\n\n(7) It is, however, satisfactory to observe that the Central School continues to meet a demand, having in the past year supplied 30 important vacant situations, in the Colonial Service, in the Chinese Imperial Customs and in leading legal and mercantile firms.\n\nI have the honour to be, Sir, The Honourable F. STEWART, LL.D., Acting Colonial Secretary. Your most obedient Servant, GEO. H. BATESON WRIGHT, Head Master.\n\n(",

        "content_text": "Page 406\n\nRES I FER 97\n\nChina Mail of 3rd Decr. 1896.\n\nTHE TUNG WA HOSPITAL.\n\nTHE GOVERNOR AND THE NEW DIRECTORS.\n\nThis morning, His Excellency the Governor met the newly-elected Directors of the Tung Wa Hospital in the Council Chamber. The Colonial Secretary and the Hon. Dr Ho Kai were also present.\n\nThe Colonial Secretary introduced the new Directors, who are as follows: Messrs. Lo Tez-tsung, (of Messrs Arn-hold, Karberg & Co.), Liu Tsz-shan, (of the China Merchants' Steam Navigation Co.), Yung Chiu-po, (of Mr J. D. Hutchison's firm), Wong Shap-shan, (of the Wo Ki Nam Pak Hong), Li Sui-shek, (of the Kwong Mi Un Californian Hong), Chan Hiu-bung, (of the Him Un Opium firm), Leung Luk-kai, (of the Chi Tsung Pawnbroker), Kwok Iu-Un, (of Austrian Lloyds Steam Navigation Co.), Wong Sing-tung, (of the Fuk Lun U Kau Pat Hong), Lau Tak-fun, (of the Shia Lun Piece Goods shop), Tai Yat-hing, (of the Kin Fat Rice shop), Fan Pat-shan, (of the Sun Hing Cotton Yarn firm).\n\nHis Excellency said: Gentlemen, - I am very pleased to meet you to-day and I congratulate the members of the Tung Wa Hospital Corporation on the selection of the Committee elected to administer the affairs of the Hospital during the next year. I am especially glad to observe that the three members of the Committee, who are entrusted with the management of its financial affairs and upon whom the chief share of the executive work falls, are gentlemen who have been long connected with Hong Kong and who possess a knowledge of English. I trust that this is a sign that the Corporation, as represented by its Committee, is prepared to take steps to improve the present condition of the hospital. That such improvement is necessary I am fully convinced. You are aware that some time ago I appointed a Commission to enquire into the hospital. That Commission has sent in its reports, which will be published. All the members of the Commission are unanimous in praising the good work done by the hospital in the past,\n\nbut they all consider that in the interests of the sick and destitute who make use of the hospital, and with a view to their comfort, improvements should be effected. In the views of the members of the Commission I entirely concur, and I now wish to inform you that it is my intention, without undue delay, to give you every assistance to place the hospital above criticism so far as its sanitary maintenance and the cleanliness of the patients who make use of it are concerned. To effect this desirable object I am about to appoint a Steward whose sole time and attention\n\nare to be devoted to maintaining the hospital and its inmates in a sanitary and cleanly condition. You, gentlemen, are merchants whose time is much engrossed by your own affairs, and though you, out of the goodness of your hearts, are willing to sacrifice both time and money whilst managing the affairs of the hospital, it is not reasonable to expect that you can attend to all the minute though important details which are involved in the management of an institution such as the Tung Wa. I feel sure, therefore, that the appointment of a Steward which I propose to make will be welcomed by you not only on account of the improvement in the cleanliness of the hospital and the patients which it will effect, but also because it will relieve you from being directly responsible for details which you cannot possibly find time to attend to. When this Steward has been appointed I am confident that complaints as to unclean hospital clothing and bedding and unwashed and unshaved patients will cease. You must be as desirous as I am that the hospital should be maintained in a thoroughly sanitary condition and that due provision should be made for the cleanliness and comfort of the patients. I can therefore rely upon your doing everything to help the newly appointed Steward to carry out his duties in such a manner as will bring credit to the Institution, the reputation of which should be jealously guarded by you.\n\nHaving touched on the sanitary maintenance of the hospital and the cleanliness of the patients I now come to a more delicate subject, viz., the treatment accorded to the patients who are admitted to the hospital. I am aware that hitherto all patients admitted to the hospital have been treated according to methods in which the Chinese believe. Now I do not propose on the present occasion to criticise those methods, but I wish it to be clearly understood that it is not my intention to interfere with them. But while treatment according to Chinese views is not to be abolished, I consider that patients in the Tung Wa Hospital should be given an opportunity of exercising an option and should be allowed to see doctors versed in methods which are not Chinese, and if they desire to be treated by such doctors every facility of being so treated should be afforded to them. Many of you, gentlemen, are no doubt believers in Chinese treatment, but there are also among you some who have availed themselves of treatment by European doctors. Why should patients in the Tung Wa hospital not have an opportunity of doing the same thing? As Governor of a British Colony I think it is my duty to afford them the opportunity, which should not be confined to the rich\n\nPage 407",

However, the output should be in HTML using `` for paragraphs.\n\n## Step 4: Analyze the given text\nThe text is a jumbled mix of characters, place names, and what appears to be a guide or map information. It includes English and Chinese text, with some words and characters that are not clearly legible or are mixed up due to OCR errors.\n\n## Step 5: Determine the output format\nDespite the instruction to output in HTML, the initial steps and rules suggest a Markdown formatting approach. However, the final output must be in HTML.\n\n## Step 6: Begin proofreading\nGiven the complexity and the mixed nature of the text, the first step involves identifying and correcting obvious OCR errors, such as misspelled words, incorrect spacing, and broken characters.\n\n## Step 7: Reorganize the text\nThe text seems to be a collection of place names, geographical features, and possibly touristic information. Reorganizing it into a coherent structure while maintaining the original content is essential.\n\n## Step 8: Correct specific errors and format\nCorrecting \"San-on-in\" to \"San-on-in\" (no change needed), \"Pakshel\" to \"Pak Shel\", \"Tho-tsun\" to \"Tho-tsun\" (no change), and other similar corrections. Also, reformatting tables and lists, and ensuring that file references are correctly formatted without spaces.\n\n## Step 9: Address the specific requirements for output\nSince the output needs to be in HTML and the input is a complex mix of text, the focus should be on preserving the original information while correcting errors and improving readability.\n\n## Step 10: Realize the complexity of direct conversion\nDirectly converting the given text into a coherent HTML format while correcting OCR errors and following the specific rules provided is highly complex due to the text's nature and the mix of languages.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nSan-on-in \n\nPakshel \n\n'Tho-tsun \n\nyung \n\nCheung-ha \n\nKen-diau \n\n+++ Ma-Eck-we \n\n*** \n\nTaishan 1. \n\nTun-tan O \n\nAcung· \n\nChili wan \n\n...\n\nathaches were \n\n25 ft \n\ndelivered nu \n\ntobili \n\nA \n\nItalim now being \n\n& perpred \n\nItation \n\n47 \n\nbuilt \n\nhow the \n\nMing Couchuulid \n\nAAA \n\nhivshad \n\nWan ha \n\n# \n\n22ft \n\nisft \n\n+ \n\nSai-he \n\ndeung-chi hok \n\nMud banks \n\njuf't \n\nBluck rink \n\nDEEP \n\nBAY \n\nSha-ho \n\nShut-mi \n\nSan-tau \n\nOyster \n\nbeds \n\nKong ho \n\nWony-Bang \n\nShek-ha \n\nShui Woi \n\nMud \n\nM u d \n\n banks \n\nNgai hem \n\n-the Lad \n\nSan Wai \n\nTai-slati \n\nNam-vita \n\nis not \n\nPale-long \n\nTuk \n\nTang-ku 1. \n\ndang \n\nShiu-chau \n\nLang \n\nNot wai \n\nba \n\n\" \n\n$ \n\nLong-Ising \n\nf \n\nM \n\nShap-pal hening \n\nTaising \n\nHa-mi \n\nWang-chan \n\nShe \n\n6/ \n\nHa-Tu \n\nSa's Kha \n\nTang-shan... \n\n** Chrung uk-tuz \n\n• Piany shan+a \n\nGrewing po \n\nKak \n\nIn \n\nPaddy \n\n1 d \n\nVin-long-hi \n\nPak-ut. \n\nCheung-ah-chann \n\n0 \n\nYou-tin \n\nTi-same \n\nLo-ún \n\nShan Tung wi \n\nCL \n\n@Sui-hang O \n\nTing du wei \n\n*Tong-x-uni \n\nSt-Lin \n\n2000 \n\nThe TOURISTS GUIDE \n\nwith \n\nto HONG \n\nKONG \n\nSHORT TRIPS to the MAINLAND of CHINA \n\nREFERENCES \n\nPROGRAMMES \n\n℗ Mandarin Station & Village.

In the Manhow District:\n\nKong Esin (Parsavarance) Piracy Case.\n\nYesterday (August 26th), the British Consul-General had the witnesses from Kangkong, Ho Chick, Kiang-Po, Fu-Tung, Chu You Chang, and Hi Bai Shan sent to my yamun, and I, jointly with Mr. Stewart, British Consular Assistant, had up the five prisoners, viz., Ta Kuo, Chong Yap Chow, Ya Han alias Lei Shang, Fong Chan Fa, and Ta Pu, to be confronted with the witnesses and examined.\n\nHiang-Pai stated in evidence that while the boat was being pirated, Chen Yu seized him by the queue; while Hiang Kusi held him round the chest; and a boy searched his person; he lost about 2 dollars. Afterwards, at the Court in Kangkong, he was confronted with them (and recognised the two culprits as the right men; Ka could still recognise them, but did not know their names or surnames).\n\nI had caused the prisoners in question to be singled out from a number of other prisoners; Ho Chick at first pointed out Sheng Ta Te, and Hiang, at one pointing out Tung Ta Yu and Hiang Ya Kuo as the criminals who had committed robbery on board the launch. Their statements were absolutely clear, and there seemed no reason for doubt on the subject.\n\nAlso Chu You Chang and Hi Bai Shan said that they were both Christian converts who had been partners, keeping a Sanchow and Isanghau goods shop in the Tu En Street at Sanning. Subsequently, Chu You Shang opened on the opposite side of the street a carpenter's shop under the name of Chan Olan. On the 9th day of the Intercalary 8th Moon, early in the morning, Chen To Nan alias Hi Ya Chang called together some scores of men who came with weapons in their hands, saying that they had come to look out for and kill (someone), and after making a disturbance, both the shopkeepers had made a witness statement and fled far away in terror; and afterwards made an accusation before the Sanning Magistrate asking for their arrest to be underscored. Then Ta Han and Hi Ya Chang absconded to Kangkong. Chu Yon Shang and Hi Bai Shan reported to the Hongkong authorities who arrested Chen Ya Han.\n\nThe witness further stated that Hi Ya Han was resident in the same street, called the Tu No. Street in Sanning, and that he was well acquainted with him; he sometimes sold pork and some things from a \"Pai Ka\" basket - evidence enough of his being a mauvais sujet. The antecedents of the prisoner were very unsatisfactory, and Chen...",

Lan Wan Kai, Yoen Lai Chuen, Kwok Siu Lan, Wei Lun Shek, Lan Wei Cheung, and Wei Long Shan.\n\nThe preliminary ceremony took place on the grounds outside the school in an enclosure set off with flags of different nationalities. Preparatory to the formal proceedings, a photograph of the company was taken. Afterwards, the Rev. T. W. Pearce opened the proceedings, and said—Your Excellency, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Ho Tung, the large-hearted, public-spirited donor of the Kowloon School, has done me the honour of asking me to take part in this afternoon's proceedings. Mine is the pleasing duty of saying at the outset, in a few words, which the Inspector of Schools—who is now on his way to Europe on furlough—would have said with more point, and to more good purpose, that your Excellency's presence here to-day, to perform this function of opening the Kowloon School, is highly gratifying to all friends of education in the Colony. To the Kowloon residents, the occasion that brings us together is specially auspicious. They derive much satisfaction from the fact that this building, the foundation stone of which was laid two years ago by Sir Henry Blake, is to be formally opened to-day by your Excellency. There is a phrase of Lord Brougham that has become historic—a phrase that has to do with education—\"Let the soldier be abroad if he will, he can do nothing in this age. There is another personage, a personage less imposing in the eyes of some, perhaps insignificant. The schoolmaster is abroad and I trust him, armed with his primer, against the soldier.\" When we in this Colony link in our thought the soldier with the schoolmaster, it will not be that we may set the one against the other. It will be our pride to remember that so distinguished a soldier\n\nWAS\n\nZ019\n\nso true a friend to the school-master. The school which your Excellency is to receive, on behalf of the Colony, from the hand of Mr. Ho Tung, marks a new departure in the history of education in Hongkong. It is a school to provide education for children of European parentage. The principle on which the school is based is that the plan of instruction must be suited to the station of the pupils, the views of parents, the genius of the children. Nationality, constitution, and inclination alike have been consulted. It is felt to be of the first importance that these children, destined we trust to remain in Hongkong and to occupy useful, it may be superior, stations here, should enjoy such advantages as this school is well-fitted to afford. This, sir, is the principle conceded by the Government, subject to the approval of His Majesty's Secretary of State for the Colonies. It would not be possible in the time allotted to me to trace the history of the movement extending over a number of years that has led up to this Kowloon School. That movement will form a not uninstructive chapter in the story of education in this Colony. It is timely, however, to remind ourselves that right views of education are developed gradually and that methods have to be tested step by step before they can be pronounced sound. When the British flag was first hoisted on this island, education of the kind contemplated in this school scarcely existed in the Homeland. Far-reaching changes and marvellous progress in this science have characterised the last sixty years. It is not too much to say that the whole system of primary education in England has grown up during the last sixty years. There is one point of comparison that suggests itself to me, and it will serve as an illustration of education in Hongkong. As I understand it, the law of England at the time when this Colony became a British possession is the law of Hongkong to-day, with such additions, changes, and omendations as have been found necessary from time to time as years have gone by. The course of education has been analogous. At an early period in the history of Hongkong, certain educational facilities were placed within the reach of all, and the school system established then has been maintained and improved\n\nin a manner creditable for the most part to all concerned in its working, when the many-sided aspects of this question in a cosmopolitan a community are kept in view. Its advance has not been so rapid as some have thought to be desirable and practicable, the fact is due to conditions which rendered the problem peculiarly intricate. We believe the present school to be thoroughly up to date, both as regards the building itself and the instruction to be carried on within it; and we shall all watch with keen sympathetic interest the work of education on these new lines. Your Excellency, according to the request of the Government to make this a school for European children only, Mr. Ho Tung has put himself by imagination and sympathy in the place of a section of the community to which he does not himself belong. In doing so, he has, I think, set an example of broad-minded liberality which we shall do well to imitate. It is seemly and fitting that I make this acknowledgment. If Mr. Ho Tung consents that his school be for European children on condition that the Government builds at Yaumati a similar school for Chinese children, he does something to unite two sections of this community in good-will and kindly relations which I trust we shall all do our best to maintain. Education is a sphere where such relations can be cultivated to advantage. Let us say ungrudgingly and unhesitatingly that we will do our best for the education\n\nWe\n\nof all, under the best conditions, even if like Mr. Ho Tung we have to give up something in order to accomplish our purpose. There\n\n106",

        "content_text": "## THE HONGKONG WEEKLY PRESS\n\n[May 23, 1903]\n\n### CRIMINAL JURISDICTION\n\n#### BEFORE HIS HONOUR SIR HENRY S. BERKELEY (ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE)\n\n##### THE GAGE STREET MURDER TRIAL - SENTENCE OF DEATH\n\nThe trial was continued of Lui Chui alias Li Kwai Fan who was charged with the murder of a Reformer schoolmaster at 52, Gage Street on 10th January, 1901.\n\nMr. E. H. Sharp, K.C., Acting Attorney-General (instructed by Mr. F. B. L. Bowley, Crown Solicitor), conducted the prosecution; and Mr. T. Morgan Phillips, barrister-at-law, was for the defence.\n\nChan Wan, who had been under examination when the Court rose on the previous night, was again put in the witness-box. He said he was employed at present as a cook on board the `Zafiro`. He knew the prisoner, who was nicknamed \"Sow\" (\"jutting teeth\") by reason of the peculiar formation of his teeth. Witness's brother Chan Lam Tsai was a member of the gang, and was executed because two letters were found in his possession by Li Ka Chuk. Witness had seen and read the letters, which did not relate to the murder directly, simply asking his brother to come down to Hongkong from Canton, as the Government of Hongkong wanted him. One of the letters was sent by \"Mai\" (the Chinese for Mr. May, then Captain Superintendent of Police). Witness was present at the execution of his brother, whose head was cut off on the Honam side of Canton. He remembered the murder of Yeung Kue Wan, and during the few months preceding it, witness was living at Canton with his brother, who rented the house and lived in it with his family. His brother was a soldier and a gambler - a soldier when times were busy and a gambler when they were slack. Li Ka Chuk, the mandarin, was the head of the Chuk regiment. Ko Ping Shan, whom witness knew, was one of Chuk's soldiers, called at witness's brother's house on 6th January, 1901, and the two - the brother and Ko Ping Shan - had a conversation, after which they went to Li Ka Chuk's barracks. When he came back, he had a conversation with Tung Cheung, the other man living in the house, and very early next morning all three - witness, his brother, and Tung Cheung - went to Chuk's barracks. Witness remained outside, but the other two went in and later on sent for him. When he entered, he saw the captain of the `Kin Yai` and the other two besides one of Li Ka Chuk's braves and a fourth member of the gang named Tsui.\n\nCross-examination continued - The pilot did not ask the witness to leave the room when he was discussing the project, in which the accused asked him to participate. His reason for not joining in it was that he was too busy with the cooking, and he did not make a report to the police because prisoner threatened to kill him if he did.\n\nRe-examined - The prisoner was arrested long before the police came to see him.\n\nChan Wan said he met the gang in Canton after the murder. Witness's elder brother, Lam Tsai, stated that he entered the house first and did the actual shooting. Tung Chung accompanied him. Tsui Fuk and the prisoner remained outside. Three of the gang received the greater part of the money reward; these were the prisoner, who got $2,000; Lam Tsai $2,000, and Tung Chung $2,000. He did not know what the other man received. These three also got buttons of the fifth rank, along with about twenty others. Witness saw two of the diplomas of rank, one in the possession of his elder brother Lam Tsai and one in the possession of Tung Chung. He produced and identified the patent, which belonged to his elder brother; it bore the date 30th January, 1901. The patent was sealed with the viceregal seal of Viceroy Tak. It stated that Chau Tai Oa (the official name of Chan Lam Tsai) had exerted himself in the arrest of the leader of the Ko-lo Society and other members of secret societies, and great credit was due to him.\n\nCross-examined - Before the death of Yeung Kue Wan, prisoner was unknown to him. Prisoner was not present at the house of his brother and at Li Ka Chuk's barracks in Canton. It was Li Ka Chuk who instructed his brother to carry out the murder.\n\nKong Ngau Ying, a fishmonger from Yaumati, deposed that he first met the prisoner on 8th January, 1901, at West Point with Lam Tsai and others. There they went into a brothel. He knew Lam Tsai. Afterwards, he learned that two of the others along with the prisoner were Tung Chung and Tsui Fuk. He saw prisoner again on 10th January at West Point in the Street; along with him were Chan Lam Tsai, Tung Chung, and Tsui Fuk. They took witness to an eating-house. After that, they went to the house of Ng La Sam, whom he had known. Li Chi Tin, between ten and twenty years, secretary to Li Ka Chuk, was there; also a man named Yeung Ching Kai, captain of the `Ai Yu`. Li Chi Tin asked him whether he \"wished to go or not.\" Witness asked \"Go where?\" Li Chi Tin replied \"To go to shoot Yeung Kue Wan.\" Witness said he was not going. Prisoner and the others were all present. Li Chi Tin then said \"Why don't you go? there is a reward of between $10,000 and $21,000 and you will get an appointment as a mandarin\"; adding that the reward would come from Viceroy Tak. Li Chi Tin explained that Yeung Kue Wan was the \"emperor\" of the Waichou rebellion.\n\n| Name | Role |\n| --- | --- |\n| Lui Chui alias Li Kwai Fan | Accused |\n| Chan Lam Tsai | Brother of Chan Wan, member of the gang, executed |\n| Tung Chung | Member of the gang |\n| Tsui Fuk | Member of the gang |\n| Li Ka Chuk | Mandarin, head of the Chuk regiment |\n| Viceroy Tak | Viceroy who offered the reward |\n\nThe jury retired to consider their verdict at 4:50, returning to the Court at 5 o'clock.\n\nThe Foreman announced that the jury unanimously found the prisoner guilty.\n\nHis Lordship addressing the prisoner said - \"You have been found guilty of the murder of Yeung Kue Wan. If when you said that you did not commit the murder, you meant that it was not by your hand that this man met his death, then your statement was true. The charge against you is not that you yourself did the deed, but that you were one of a gang of four men who went to his house for the purpose of killing him and did kill him.\"\n\nThe sentence of the Court therefore was that he be taken from hence to the place from whence he came and from thence on a day to be hereafter fixed to the place of execution; and that there he be hanged by the neck until he be dead, and that thereafter his body be buried in such a place as the Governor may direct, and 'may the Lord have mercy on his soul.\n\nAs the prisoner was removed from the dock, he exclaimed, \"It is a false accusation.\"\n\nThe Acting, Attorney-General said he wished to draw his Lordship's attention specially to the services of Sergeant O'Sullivan, who had had charge of this case from the beginning and had collected all the evidence in the case.\n\nThe Acting Attorney-General in addressing the jury said his friend on the other side had asked every witness why he did not tell the police of the plot to murder Yeung Kue Wan, and each one had answered that he was afraid of the Chinese Government.\n\nHis Lordship in summing up said the defence of the evidence for the Crown was based on this - that if it had been as the witnesses said, they would have gone to the police or ought to have gone to the police and saved the man Yeung Kue Wan.\n\nThe jury would be justified in accepting it as a fact that he would not have been able to call witnesses to prove that he was not in Hongkong at the time witnesses said he was.\n\nThe Court adjourned.",

BERKELEY (ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE),\n\n#### TRIAL OF LUI CHUI alias LI KWAI SAU CHARGED WITH MURDER.\n\nThe trial was continued of Lui Chui alias Li Kwai Sau who was charged with the murder of a Reformer schoolmaster at 52, Gage Street on 10th January, 1901.\n\nMr. E. H. Sharp, K.C., Acting Attorney General (instructed by Mr. F. B. L. Bowley, Crown Solicitor), conducted the prosecution; and Mr. T. Morgan Phillips, barrister-at-law, was for the defence.\n\nA Choe, examined by Mr. Sharp, said he was employed at present as a cook on board the `Zafiro`. He knew the prisoner, who was nicknamed \"Sow (jutting teeth)\" by reason of the peculiar formation of his teeth. Witness's brother Chan Lam Tsai was a member of the gang, and was executed because two letters were found in his possession by Li Ka Chuk. Witness had seen and read the letters, which did not relate to the murder directly, simply asking his brother to come down to Hongkong from Canton, as the Government of Hongkong wanted him. One of the letters was sent by Mui (the Chinese for Mr. May, then Captain Superintendent of Police).\n\nCross-examined - Before the death of Kuo Wau, prisoner was unknown to him. Prisoner was not present at the bone of witness's brother and at Li Ka Chuk's barracks in Canton. It was Li Ka Chuk who instructed his brother to carry out the murder. He first saw prisoner at the barracks after the death of Yeung Kue Wan. Witness's brother said in the barracks that the prisoner ran away when he heard shots.\n\nRe-examined - He did not see the ordering or payment of the $2,000 to the prisoner; the orders for the payment of $2,000 each to his brother and Tong Chung.\n\nKong Ngan Ying, a fishmonger from Yanwati, deposed that he first met the prisoner January, 1901, at West Point with Lam Tsai and others. There they went into a teahouse. He knew Lam Tsai. Afterwards he saw that two of the others along with the prisoner were Tung Chung and Tsai Fak. He saw prisoner again on 10th January at West Point in the Street; along with him were Chan Lam Tsai, Tung Chung, and Tsui Fak. They went to an eating-house. After that they went to the house of Ng Lo Sam, whom he had known between ten and twenty years. Li Chi Tin, secretary to Li Ka Chuk, was there; also named Yeung Ching Kai, captain of the braves. Li Chi Tin asked him whether he \"wished to go or not.\" Witness asked \"Go where?\" Li Chi Tin replied \"To go to shoot Yeung Kue Wan.\" Witness said he was not going. Prisoner and the others were all present. Li Chi Tin then said \"Why don't you go? There is a reward of between $10,000 and $200; we, we can be the trevious night, will get an appointment as a mandarin\"; \n\nThe others agreed to go, namely, the prisoner first and did the actual shooting. Tung Chung, Lam Tsai, Tsui Fuk, and Tung Cheung did not go to Hongkong. On the afternoon of 10th January, he saw the gang again, four of them stood in front of Young Kue Wan's house. The prisoner walked ahead of Lam Tsai and the others. Three of the gang received the greater part of the money reward; these were the prisoner, who got $2,000; Lam Tsai $2,000; and Tung Chung $2,100. They also got buttons of the fifth rank, along with the diplomas of rank, one in the possession of his elder brother Lam Tsai and one in the possession of Tung Chung.\n\nChan Wan, fisherman, Yanwati, said he had known the prisoner for several years. He met him on the marriage boat on or about 1st November, 1900. Prisoner asked him to go on shore with him to drink tea and smoke opium in the opium divan. Prisoner said Young Kue Wan was a rebel and the Chinese Government had offered a reward of between $10,000 and $20,000 for his capture; would witness assist him? Witness refused, saying he had not the courage. Prisoner said he did not need to be afraid, as he would get a reward and the Chinese Government would protect him. The reward was to come from Li Ka Chuk. Prisoner said Yeung Kue Wan resided in Hongkong.\n\nWong Shing, fisherman, stated that before the murder he met the prisoner, who asked people to assist him in shooting Kong Kua (Yeung Kue Wan). He refused. Prisoner then asked for the use of witness's boat for the purpose of kidnapping the deceased. Witness refused; his partner A Sum promised. At that time it was mentioned that there would be a reward of $35,000 if Young Kue Wan was killed and $10,000 if he was captured alive, the reward to come from Li Ka Chuk of the Chinese Government.\n\nSergeant E. O'Sullivan stated that he made the arrest acting on the information of Wong Ta Fak. He did not know how Wong Shing came to be in communication with the police. When the prisoner was put in Victoria Gaol he had seen none of the witnesses but Wong Shing. Some days later prisoner was paraded among 13 others for identification and was identified by Kong Ngau Ying. Some time later there was another identification. The witnesses Chan Wau and Tam Chung identified him separately; Chan Chung also identified him.\n\nThe hearing was adjourned at this point.\n\n### CONTINUATION OF TRIAL.\n\nAt a few minutes before seven, Mr. Whyte concluded the evidence of A Choe, and the Court was accordingly adjourned until this morning, and the jury were removed to the Hotel d'Europe.\n\n## THE GAGE STREET MURDER TRIAL SENTENCE.\n\nThe jury retired to consider their verdict at 4:50, returning to the Court at 5 o'clock; and the Foreman announced that the jury unanimously found the prisoner guilty.\n\nHis Lordship directed the prisoner to be asked if he had anything to urge why sentence should not be passed upon him? The Prisoner replied that he did not do it; he had nothing more to say.\n\nMay 23, 1903. His Lordship addressing the prisoner said he had been found guilty of the murder of Yeung Kue Wan. When he said that he did not commit the murder, he meant that it was not his hand that this man met his death, but that he was one of a gang of four men who went to his house for the purpose of killing him and did kill him. The evidence was that the prisoner with Chan Lam Tsai and two others went to deceased's house, that he remained with another man outside to watch, that Lam Tsai and another man went into the house, and that Lam Tsai shot the deceased.\n\nThe sentence of the Court therefore was that he be taken from hence to the place from whence he came and from thence on a day to be fixed to the place of execution, and that there he be hanged by the neck until he be dead, and that thereafter his body be buried in such a place as the Governor may direct, and may the Lord have mercy on his soul.\n\nThe Acting Attorney-General in addressing the jury said his friend on the other side had asked every witness why he did not tell the police of the plot to murder Yeung Kue Wan, and each one had answered that he was afraid of the Chinese Government. And were they not safe under the protection of the Hongkong police? he asked. This case was an answer in itself. Yeung Kue Wan was not safe under the protection of the Hongkong police. It was questionable whether even now the lives of the witnesses who had given evidence were safe: it was a matter which it was better perhaps not to go into.\n\nThe Court adjourned.\n\n## CHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT.\n\nAt Pingto over 150 people were recently burned to death while worshipping in a temple. In burning incense and large quantities of paper, the staircase of the building was set alight, thus preventing all escape. Some jumped out of the windows but were crushed to death. The victims were burned beyond recognition. Others would have jumped but the rush was so great that they could not get out. Most of the victims were burned beyond recognition.",

Sharp, K.C., Acting Attorney-General of Hongkong.**\n\nI am of opinion, upon the evidence adduced at the trial of Li Kwai Fan, and upon the Crown Solicitor's note of further statements made by Kong Ngau Ying, Chan Wan, and Tam Tseung that the Crown would be justified in charging Tung Cheung with the murder, as one of the gang which was present at and actually perpetrated the deed.\n\nThe statements of the same witnesses and of Tam Tai concerning Yeung Tsing Kai (the Captain of the Chinese Gunboat \"Kin Yui\"), and the statements of the Kongs and of Mr. May concerning Ng Lo Sam (the police agent in Hongkong), constitute a strong case against these two persons of conspiring to murder together with Tung Cheung, Li Kwai Fan (the condemned man) and Chan Lam Tsai, who has been executed by the Chinese Authorities on suspicion of communicating in the matter with the Hongkong Police.\n\nThere is more evidence to support the charge of conspiracy than that of being accessory before the fact. For example, Kong Kung Ki, Kong Kai, and Mr. May only speak of the unsuccessful attempt which was made by Ma Wong Loi's gang under the direction of Ng Lo Sam in November, 1900, and can prove nothing with regard to the successful attempt by Li Kwai Fan's gang. The discrepancy between the statements of Kong Ngau Ying and Chan Wan as to whether Yeung Tsing Kai was in Hongkong or Canton at the time of the murder I do not regard as very important. He seems to have been frequently here in connection with the plot, and witnesses speaking more than two years after the events might confuse the point.\n\nPage 510\nPage 511",

In January, 1901, I was living with my brother Chan Lam Tsai (whose official name is Chan Tai On) in Canton City; a soldier named Tung Cheung was living with us. On 6th. January at 7 A.M. a soldier named Ko Ping Shan came to our house and told us that Li Ka Cheuk, the Commandant of the Canton City Guard, had offered a large reward to anyone who would capture or shoot Yeung Kui Wan, a Chinese rebel living in Hongkong. Ko Ping Shan asked us to do it, and my brother said he would go.\n\n3. My brother then went out with Ko Ping Shan and returned at 5 P.M., and said he was going to shoot Yeung Kui Wan and asked Tung Cheung to join him. Tung Cheung agreed to do so, and they arranged that they would ask Li Ka Cheuk to make a written agreement about the reward and give the agreement to me to keep.\n\n4. Very early in the morning of the 7th. January I went with my brother and Tung Cheung to Li Ka Cheuk's barracks at Sze Tsi Kiu near the North Gate of Canton City. There we saw Yeung Tsing Kai, an Officer under Li Ka Cheuk and Captain of the \"Kin Yui\" Gunboat, and I heard my brother say to Yeung Tsing Kai \"If we succeed in doing this affair where shall we get the reward ?\" to which Yeung Tsing Kai replied \"Don't be afraid, younger brother, even more than one million the Government...\"",

The Chinese Government have recently applied for the extradition of the two remaining witnesses, Kong Kung Hi and Kong Kai, on a charge of robbery in Chinese Territory.

        "content_text": "4\n\nmountainous country. In easy country Lisaw transport is far inferior to mules. If the Lisaw smokes opium at all, he generally smokes it badly. He will sleep out anywhere, and will snore all night with nothing but a piece of goat skin between himself and deep snow, at a height of 9,000 feet.\n\nI had no sort of trouble with any of the Lisaw with whom I had to deal, and I should say that they are easier to get on with than Kachins.\n\nThe Lisaws are scattered and disunited, and are not I think capable of serious resistance to any one. The Lisaw \"rebellion\" which occurred two years ago in this part of the country was purposely much exaggerated by the Chinese mandarins in search of buttons and promotions.\n\nOn the 7th March, we marched east from Lan Ma, following up the stream and over a wild mountain range by a pass known as Kan Tsai Ling (8,700 feet). From one point in the ascent there is a fine view of the Kan Liang Pass and of the range which forms the British frontier. We then passed back into the Shweli Basin and descended through forest, with the monastery of Ying Feng Ssu, a well-known place of local pilgrimage, perched on a conspicuous wooded spur 3,000 feet above us on our right; descending further we struck the valley of Tien Tang, or the west branch of the Shweli River, near the small market of La Hsing. Like all the upper waters of the Shweli, the river is 30-40 yards broad, very clear and cold, and nearly everywhere fordable in dry weather, and only 1-3 feet deep, flowing swiftly over a bottom of slippery stones. The valley of the Tien Tang is about 14 miles broad, and is well peopled and cultivated.\n\nFollowing up this valley we passed into the territory of the Tien Tang Headman Tsai, about 14 miles before reaching Ying Pan Market, which consists of forty wattle bamboo huts. The Headman's house is near this, and he came out to see me.\n\nHe represents the eighth generation of Chiefs of Tien Tang, his ancestors, who were of Chinese origin, having established themselves at Tien Tang in the reign of Hung Wu of the Ming dynasty. Like all other Chinese Chiefs in this country, his ancestor was a military adventurer. The little territory of Tien Tang is divided into six \"pai's,\" or parishes, each containing four or five hamlets of five to twenty families. There are not more than 300 families in the whole of Tsai's jurisdiction. Tsai himself is a dirty, opium-smoking Chinese, of about 45 years of age, in no way to be distinguished from the ordinary villager. I gave him some whisky, which he appreciated, and he then supplied me with a number of details concerning the country round about. Finally, after having commissioned his nephew, a squat youth in straw sandals, to look after me, the Lord of the Valley shambled back to his opium couch with a bottle of his new Scotch acquaintance under his arm.\n\nWe continued up the valley by a good road, and camped at the hamlet (ten families) of Ta Ping Ti, on a terrace 300 feet above the Tien Tang stream. This is near the north end of the valley, and there is a good view of the hills forming the crest of the N'maikha watershed.\n\nThe next day, passing the village of Ma Li Pa (thirty families), 14 miles from and 250 feet below Ta Ping Ti, we ascended an upland valley in a northerly direction. On both sides of Ma Li Pa the tops of the hills were covered with snow. The track which we followed was good, even for mules, right up to the crest of the water-divide at the pass of Pan Wa, 8 miles from Ta Ping Ti. After Ma Li Pa we only passed one village about 6 miles from the pass, but there were extensive patches of cultivation, and the valley, until close to its head, was open, and covered with bracken and pine trees. This road is often followed by Lisaws and petty Chinese traders. The first village on the N'maikha side is said to be Chang Yin Kot, which is about as far from the Pan Wa divide as Pan Wa is from Ta Ping Ti; 7 miles farther on is Lu Pi. Both these are Lisaw villages.\n\nFrom Pan Wa Pass there is a view of the head of the valley of the Chipway tributary of the N'maikha, and of a range of snow-clad peaks known as the Chung Shan, which must be at least 12,000 feet, jutting out from the water-parting towards the N'maikha. The most conspicuous peak bears due north from the Pan Wa Pass, which on the Tien Tang or Chinese side is overshadowed by a high peak of about 10,000 feet, which hangs over Ma Li Pa. The Chipway is known to the Chinese as the Chih Fei River. The N'maikha seems to be generally unknown to them under that name, and they refer to it as the Ta or Chin Chiang (\"great or gold river\"). The Lisaws from the head-waters of the Chipway are said not to number more than 100 families. They come to Tien Tang to get supplies, as one would expect, seeing that the Pan Wa Pass is easy travelling in comparison with the Kachin country below them. Mules can get as far as Lu Pi by this route, but not beyond, into the Kachin country near the N'maikha, without previous road repairs. Walking could, it is said, get from Tien Tang to the banks of the N'maikha in four days, but few or none of the Tien Tang people seem ever to have been so far. Parties of Kachins, however, come to Ying Pan market two or three times a year to purchase iron, which is mined in small quantities in the valley near the Ta Ping Ti.\n\n5\n\nThe Tien Tang branch of the Shweli has three head-streams:\n\n1. The stream which comes from the Pan Wa Pass.\n\n2. The Mo Shih Ho, a brook a little to the west which springs from the same mountain from which flows the chief sources of the Chipway River.\n\n3. The main source flows from the hills north of Ta Ping Ti, at a point on the watershed just opposite the Chung Shan, and, passing the hamlet of Hei Tzu Wan, joins 1 and 2 at Ma Li Pa. There is said to be a difficult track, impassable for mules, over the watershed at the back of the Hei Tzu Wan to the Chung Shan.\n\nOn the 10th March we climbed up the steep hills east of Ta Ping Ti, through patches of cultivation, to 8,800 feet in 2-1/2 hours' march, and so descended by a broad, cultivated, lateral valley, with several villages, into the Ming Kwang Plain. Heavy rain caused us at 12:30 to take refuge in a temple at Shang Ho Si, the last village before debouching on the plain. This pass is easily practicable for laden mules. The next day we crossed the Ming Kwang branch of the Shweli, and ascended the Ming Kwang Plain for 6 miles, passing the dirty little market of Ying Pan Kai, to Tu Chai (\"main village\"), the residence of the Tso family. The plain is from 1 to 2 miles broad; the river was 45 yards wide where we forded, and 1 to 3 feet deep. It is fordable nearly everywhere in the Ming Kwang Plain. Along its banks, as along the banks of the Tien Tang stream, there is abundance of good camping ground, grass, fuel, and water, and of such ordinary supplies as rice, maize, fowls, ducks, mutton, cattle, in sufficient quantities for a small party.\n\nThe Ming Kwang Valley is now divided between two \"fu yi,\" or hereditary Chiefs. Lower Ming Kwang is the patrimony of the Yang family, who have their headquarters at I Ya Tang, a village on the opposite side of the valley to Shang Ho Si, and about 1 mile below it. Their portion of the valley is divided into three \"fan,\" or parishes—upper, middle, and lower—and consists of about seventy hamlets, with 6,000-7,000 inhabitants. There is much padi and other cultivation and a considerable head of cattle in the valley. Many of the people are engaged in the cutting and transport of wood from the surrounding hills to Teng Yueh. The ancestor of the Yangs is said to have been a military official who came from Teng Yueh in the Ming dynasty. The Yangs have now little more than an empty title, and the people of this part of the valley pay the ordinary land tax to the Teng Yueh Sub-Prefect.\n\nThe Upper Ming Kwang Valley belongs to the Tso family, but they have only about fifteen villages, with a population of 300 odd families. The present \"fu yi,\" or Chief, is a youth of 18, and is the son of Tso Erh Kuan (Tso the Second), who was killed at Hpare in Mr. Hertz's affair, in February 1899. The affairs of the family are now managed by the brother of the late (uncle of the present) head of the family. I was well received, and lodged in the Tso clan ancestral temple, where the various members of the family came to visit me. Their temple is at the back of their yamên, which is a filthy and rambling structure resembling a succession of pigsties; the village, of some seventy families, consists of hovels made of bamboo wattle, but there seems to be abundance of cultivation and supplies. It is, however, clear that the political and economical affairs of the family are in a very decadent condition. The \"regent\" is a man of some intelligence but of little energy, except in pulling at his opium-pipe; and I doubt if Burma will ever have any further trouble from the military aspirations of the Tso clan.\n\nMost of the Tso clan's peasantry are \"nu shou,\" or crossbowmen, who do not pay ordinary land tax. It would appear that they were originally a sort of limitrophe colonist, whose lands and status were recognized by the Chinese Government on condition that they defended the frontier. The Tso family is a branch of the Teng clan, originally seated near Chengtu, in Ssuchuan, but which early moved to Tsao Chiang, in the Mekong Valley, and in the Yun Lung Sub-prefecture of Yunnan. The name was then changed to Tso. At the end of the Ming dynasty Tso Wan Hsiang came from Tsao Chiang, and carved out as his patrimony the upper Ming Kwang Valley, from which he expelled Lisaws and others. It is also to be noted that there are vague traditions of Burmese (not Shans) having formerly inhabited parts of this country. Tso Wan Hsiang gained the honorary and hereditary title of \"Suan Fu Su,\" generally conferred only on Chiefs of the first class, and his descendants bear the title to this day. The present youth is twelfth in descent from the Wan Hsiang.\n\nPage 367",

As regards the position, at any rate, of the British posts there can, I imagine, be no secrecy, and our claim to \"Scott's Line\" is independent of the question of actual administration.\n\nTing Ta-jèn would, I gather, be prepared to consider suggestions for concerted action against the Wa, though his inclination is to regard the Wa Hills as a district independent both of Yunnan and of Burmah, much as the Lolo country on the left bank of the Yang-tze, opposite Chao-t'ung Prefecture, is, in effect, independent both of Szechuan and of Yunnan. It has not, apparently, occurred to him that the acceptance by his Government of \"Scott's Line\" would make Burmah liable for all damages caused by Wa forays into Yünnan territory.\n\nI have, &c.\n\n(Signed)  \nW.

The Pu-ting Left Battalion.—The Centre and Left Companies are posted on the bank of the Na-cha-t River, in Mien-ning Sub-Prefecture; the Right Company at San-ch'a-lu (\"Three Cross Roads\"); the Front Company at Chenpien; the Rear Company at Ssü-mao.\n\n3. The Chingpien Local Battalion.—The Centre Company is stationed at the main camp of Nan-wa; the Left Company at Siao (\"Lesser\") An-kang; the Right Company at Shang (\"Upper\") Kai-hsin; the Front Company at Chenpien Town; while the Rear Company is partly at Tien-pa, partly at the Nan-pen Hill.\n\nNOTE.—These three battalions were stationed at the above posts (from Nan-ch'a to the Nan-pen Hill) after the foray of the Wa last winter.\n\n4. The Pu-ting Right Battalion.—One picket (\"p'eng\") of the Centre Company is stationed at Chenpien Town; the remaining four pickets of this company are at Leng-k'an. The Left Company is stationed at Man-law; the Right at Kung-hsin; the Front at Hsi-ming; the Rear at Lung-k'an.\n\n[NOTE.—This battalion was stationed at the above posts (from Chenpien Town to Lung-k'an) previous to the Wa foray of last winter.]\n\n### Notes by Translator\n\n1. P'u-ting is the name of the battalion, derived from the \"P'u\" of Pu-erh (the Prefecture in which Ssü-mao is situated) and \"ting\" (to settle); so Chingpien comes from \"ching\" (to tranquillize) and \"pien\" (the frontier).\n\n2. Battalions (\"ying\") in the Chinese Army are distinguished as (a) \"chung\" (the centre); (b) \"tso\" (the left); (c) \"yu\" (the right); (d) \"chien\" (the front); (e) \"hou\" (the rear).  \n   Each battalion contains five companies (\"shao\"), similarly distinguished. In the same way, each company is divided into five pickets (\"p'eng\").  \n   Properly speaking, a battalion should consist of 500 men; so that a company should number 100 and a picket 20. In Yunnan Province, 70 men are reckoned to the company, and often only 10 to the picket. The numbers actually employed, moreover, would vary with the venality of the Commanding Officer.\n\nPage 356\n\n3. Nan-ch'a will be found marked (as Nan-cha) in both Chinese and English on Inclosures Nos. 4 and 10 to the `Report on the Work of the Burmah-China Boundary Commission, Season 1899-1900` (Political Department, No. `B.C. 1900—7`).  \n   Chan-ma-p'o I can find on none of the maps in my archives, unless, as is most probable, it is to be identified with Cha-ma-p'o in `Survey of India, Yunnan Province`, Sheet No. 4 S.E. (Reg. No. `797-8./03`), at about latitude 22° 52′ north, longitude 99° 45′ east.  \n   Nan-tai I cannot discover.  \n   Mien-ning Sub-Prefecture is adjacent to Chenpien Sub-Prefecture, on the north. It should be shown on Sheet No. 12 N.W., which is not in my archives.  \n   San-ch'a-lu cannot be identified here.  \n   Nan-wa appears as in Inclosure No. 10 and as in Inclosure No. 4 (latitude 23°, longitude 99° 50′). An An-kang is marked just below it (as in Inclosure No. 10, and as in Inclosure No. 4. There is another An-kang north-east of Nan-ch'a (see tracing of the map of Chenpien Sub-Prefecture, inclosed with my despatch No. 11, Burmah, of 1905); but the \"Lesser An-kang\" of the Return is probably that of Inclosures Nos. 4 and 10.  \n   Shang Kai-hsin will be found on the same tracing of the Sub-Prefecture, due north of Chenpien Town, and in latitude 23° 14′.  \n   Tien-pa is almost certainly the Tien-pa of Captain Renny-Tailyour's `Rough Map to accompany the Commissioner's Report` (Political Department, `B.C. 1900—7`), in latitude 22° 41', longitude 99° 54′.  \n   The Nan-pen Hill I cannot identify.  \n   Leng-k'an is marked almost due north of Meng-ma on Inclosure No. 10. Man-law appears on the map of Chenpien immediately to the north of Shang Kai-hsin, of which it may be a Shan or Lolo equivalent.  \n   Kung-hsin is marked on the same map in the angle between the Nam-ma and Nam-kha Rivers. It is probably the Kawn-hin of Sheet No. 4 S.E.  \n   Hsi-ming is the well-known Mong-hka (see Report of the Boundary Commission, as above, and compare Inclosures Nos. 4 and 10).  \n   Lung-k'an I cannot discover.\n\nA reference to Inclosures Nos. 4 and 10 of the Boundary Commission Report for 1900 will show that, out of the places identified as above, two at least—namely, Hsi-ming (Mong-hka) and Leng-k'an (probably the Lon-kham of Sheet No. 4 S.E.)—lie to the west of \"Scott's Line.\" In other words, the Chinese are certainly maintaining military posts, though of no great strength, in part of the territory claimed for Burmah.\n\nIt is only right to add, however, that these posts are on the east of the frontier as claimed by the Chinese Commissioners in 1900, and that \"Scott's Line\" has never been admitted, even as a provisional boundary, by the Governments of China and Yunnan.\n\n(Signed)  \nW. H. WILKINSON,  \nConsul-General.\n\nYunnan-fu, July 28, 1905.\n\nPage 44",

I have the honour to report as follows with reference to my responsibility for the defalcations of Ip Hai Lam, formerly Treasury Shroff in the New Territory.\n\n3. On December 22nd, 1905, I was appointed provisionally Assistant Superintendent of Police in the New Territories, in succession to Mr. Ross, and proceeded to Taipo on the 23rd. I received no instructions from the Hon. Treasurer nor information from my predecessor on any points in connection with the collection of Crown Rent; in fact, I was under the impression that it was only as Assistant Superintendent of Police for the New Territory that I was to exercise control over the Treasury Shroffs.\n\n8. The embezzlements of Ip Hai Lam, who was at this time Shroff at Sheung Shui, were for the most part impossible to detect, as it would be possible for him to receive money from villagers at his office or at home, without entering the amounts in the register, and he was careful to pay in large sums at regular intervals to Taipo. Indeed, he worked with extraordinary zeal and attended particularly to those owing the largest sums, to whom he would excuse the issue of proper receipts on the ground of press of work.\n\n4. On February 20th, 1906, I received a telephone message from the Hon. Treasurer that he had heard of the possibility of some irregularity in the accounts of the Sheung Shui Shroff; the author of this report was Chan Hai Wong, one of the other Shroffs at Taipo, and as he returned on the same evening, I asked him what irregularity he suspected. He mentioned a sum of $800 which Ip Hai Lam had recently collected and had not paid in; so on the following day, I visited Sheung Shui and found that the sum indicated had now been entered. I brought back the $800 to Taipo myself, and told Ip Hai Lam to make...",

(Signed)\nEWEN CAMERON.\n\nInclosure 1 in No. 105.\n\nAgreement.\n\nThis Agreement is made between his Excellency Hü, Governor of Peking, as Administrator-General of the Railways of North China within and without Shan-hai-Kuan, acting under the authority of the Imperial Chinese Government, hereinafter called the \"Administrator-General,\" of the one part, and the Hong Kong and Shanghae Banking Corporation, for themselves and on behalf of the British firm of Jardine, Matheson, and Co., representing as joint agents the British and Chinese Corporation (Limited), hereinafter called the \"Corporation,\" of the other part:\n\nWHEREAS, on the 7th day of June, 1898, being the 19th day of the 4th month of the 24th year of the Emperor Kuang-Hsü, a preliminary Agreement was signed at Peking between the Administrator-General and the Hong Kong and Shanghae Banking Corporation, representing a British Syndicate, for a sterling loan for the equivalent of about 16,000,000 taels for the construction of a railway line from Chung-hou-so to Hsin-ming-t'ing and a branch line to Ying-tsu, and for the redemption of existing advances made to the Tien-tsin-Shan-hai-Kuan and Tien-tsin-Lucouchiao Railway lines;\n\nWhereas in terms of the preliminary Agreement a period of three months from that date was allowed to the Syndicate to accept or decline its conditions; and\nWhereas the Hong Kong and Shanghae Banking Corporation, before the expiration of the period named, duly notified the Administrator-General that it is prepared, with certain modifications, to arrange the issue of the loan upon the conditions named in the preliminary Agreement:\n\nIt is now agreed as follows:-\n\n1. The Corporation agrees to issue on behalf of the Administrator-General a sterling loan for the amount of 2,300,000l, the proceeds of which are to be applied in the order following:\n\n(1) To the redemption forthwith or at maturity of the loans and advances detailed in the statement attached to this Agreement which have been made by foreign banks to the Tien-tsin-Shan-hai-Kuan and the Tien-tsin-Lucouchiao Railway lines. The Administrator-General hereby certifies that the total amount of the liabilities due by the lines named does not exceed the sum of 3,000,000 taels.\n\n(2.) To the carrying out within a period of three years from the date of this Agreement of certain improvements and additions to rolling-stock on the existing lines between Peking and Shan-hai-Kuan, recommended by the European Chief Engineer, and estimated by him to cost about 1,500,000 taels.\n\n(3.) To the construction of a railway line from Chung-hou-so to Hsin-ming-t'ing, one from a point on that line near Shih-san-chan to Ying-tzu, and of a branch line from Nu-erb-ho to the collieries of Nanp'iao.\n\nThe Administrator-General engages that the construction of the new lines here specified shall be completed within a period of three years from the date of this Agreement.\n\n2. In the event of the proceeds of this loan being insufficient for the completion of the new lines here specified, the Administrator-General will provide or will arrange with the Imperial Government of China to provide funds from other sources sufficient to complete their construction.\n\n3. This loan shall be a first charge upon the security of the permanent way, rolling-stock, and entire property, with the freight and earnings of the existing lines\n\n[1130]\n20\n7\n149",

(Confidential.)**\n\nNOV 06 Sir,\n\nAdmiralty, October 11, 1906.\n\nWith reference to your letter of the 8th instant, forwarding a copy of a despatch which has been addressed to His Majesty's Minister at Peking, recording a conversation with the Chinese Minister on the subject of Wei-hai Wei, I am commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to transmit herewith, for Sir E. Grey's information, a paraphrase of a telegram to the Commander-in-chief on the China Station on the subject, together with a paraphrase of his reply, and to state that their Lordships fully concur in the views of the Commander-in-chief on this matter.\n\nI am, &c.\n(Signed) **EVAN MACGREGOR**.\n\n### Inclosure 1 in No. 1.\n\n**Admiralty to Vice-Admiral Sir A. Moore.**\n\n(Telegraphic.) P.\n\nAdmiralty, October 9, 1906.\n\nThe Chinese Minister called at Foreign Office to urge that Wei-hai Wei may be restored to the Chinese Government, who consider that port most suitable for the development of their navy, which they have in view.\n\nAs Port Arthur is still leased to a foreign Power, and the Chinese had not yet resumed possession of it, the Secretary of State replied that it had not been anticipated by him that the question of its occupation by Great Britain being relinquished would be raised at present. You are to report by telegraph your opinion on this subject.\n\nThe Secretary of State has informed His Majesty's Minister at Peking.\n\n### Inclosure 2 in No. 1.\n\n**Vice-Admiral Sir A. Moore to Admiralty.**\n\nOctober 10, 1906. (Telegraphic.) P.\n\nWEI-HAI WEI would be useful as a flying base in certain circumstances; for the well-being of the personnel and efficiency of the squadron it is essential to have a good place for healthy recreation and practice on the northern part of this station.\n\nKiao-chan is also suitable for the requirements of the Chinese, and it would be undesirable in the present state of affairs that our prestige should suffer by leaving Wei-hai Wei so long as the Germans remain at Kiao-chan. Marquis Ito alluded in the course of conversation recently to the importance of England retaining Wei-hai Wei. I consider retention of the greatest importance.\n\n[2183 7-2]",

        "content_text": "Extract from \"Chine-tail\" of the 4th. November, 1907.\n\nIMPERIAL CHINESE COMMISSIONER.\n\n2369\n\nJAN 22 1908,\n\nBanqueted at Hongkong.\n\nHis Excellency Yang Shi Chi, the Imperial Chinese Commercial Commissioner, who was appointed by the Throne to travel abroad with a view to developing China's foreign trade, arrived at Hongkong on November 2 on board H.L.C.M. Haichi (1,800 tons), one of the finest cruisers of the Northern Squadron of the Imperial Chinese Navy, the Haiyong, of the same tonnage, accompanying. His Excellency, whose suite includes Taotai Mun Yew Chung (Deputy Director General of the Shanghai-Nanking Railway, and Director of the China Merchants' Steam Navigation Company), and Mr T. S. Pojui, (Hon. Cantab., Assoc. Inst. Civil Engineers, London, also Secretary of the Board of Agriculture Industries and Commerce), and others, was banqueted by the leading Chinese business community at the Tung Tien Hotel on Saturday evening at 8 p.m. There were present some eighty guests, and among those invited were the Hon. Dr Ho Kai, the Hon. Mr Wei Yuk, Messrs Fung Wa Chun, Lau Chu Pak, Tai Tsze Kong, Taotai Wen, of the Imperial Chinese Telegraph, and others. His Excellency Yang, accompanied by Taotai Mun Yew Cheung, and Captain of the Haichi, arrived punctually at a little after 7 o'clock. The Commissioner, who is about forty-five years of age, looks extremely healthy, and after being introduced to the members of the business community present, photographs of the party were taken by flash light. The banquet commenced at 8 o'clock.\n\nAfter drinking the health of King Edward VII, proposed by Fung Wa Chun, and that of T. I. C. M. the Empress Dowager and Emperor, proposed by Lau Cho Pak, Tam Tsze Kong addressed His Excellency in a most cordial manner to the effect that he hoped His Excellency's mission might meet with every success which would tend to the development of China's foreign trade as well as secure the co-operation of all Chinese merchants abroad, ultimately furthering Chinese commercial interests. His Excellency replied fittingly, thanking those present for their cordial welcome. He concluded his remarks by inviting the party to tea the next day on board the Haichi.\n\nMr Chan Kiang Yu, the energetic opponent to the present administrators of the Canton-Hankow Railway, next spoke of the non-compliance, by the present administrators, with the Chinese commercial laws. He asked His Excellency's help to pacify matters, requesting His Excellency to inform Chinese merchants abroad of the effect that of the $8,000,000 which had been paid as first call on the shares, a greater portion was made up by subscription by these merchants.\n\nHis Excellency replied that as the Throne had already appointed Sir Chen Tung Liang Cheng to be Director General of the line, he no doubt understood what was best to do, and he was the proper person for him (Chan) to approach on his arrival.\n\nOn Sunday at 3 p.m. in response to the invitation of Commissioner Yang, members of the Chinese community went on board the Haichi. As the launch conveying the guests approached the representatives of the Imperial Chinese Navy, which were anchored in Kowloon Bay, a band struck up. His Excellency Yang received the guests most cordially. By the courtesy of Commodore S. K. Shen, Commanding the Northern Division of the Imperial Chinese Navy, who was with the Greenwich Naval College, England, and had been with Great Britain's Mediterranean Squadron for two years, the guests were shown over the cruiser Haichi which was preserved in a most creditable manner.\n\nAfter taking tea and photographing, His Excellency addressed the party. He was glad of their presence. He hoped that in the not very distant future, China's Navy would be increased with larger and more powerful vessels than the two present, and that wherever there were Chinese merchants there would be seen the Dragon flag on the water.\n\nThe two cruisers, with His Excellency, left port this morning anchoring outside the harbour for the rest of the day. The next places of call are Manila, Saigon, Singapore, Penang, Java, and thence His Excellency and suite will proceed to Europe and America by mail steamer.\n\n128",

        "content_text": "# Report on the Examination of the Coast for a Suitable Port\n\nI went to Shanghae and saw the Coast Inspector, Captain Tyler, and procured from him a rough chart of the place and other information regarding it.\n\nOn the 13th August, I proceeded to Hulutao, which is situated some 25 or 30 li by cart road south of Lienshan Station, on the Imperial Chinese Railway. It is a promontory running out into the sea, in a direction, roughly speaking, at right angles to the coast-line from east to west, its western extremity joining the mainland, and its eastern end projecting nearly 6 further out into the sea. It is covered with numerous rounded hills, the highest being 400 feet in height. On the northern side, the water is very shallow, and on the south, it is deep, with a uniform mud bottom.\n\nI made a close examination and survey of the bay, checking the soundings which had been made previously, noting the tides, &c., so as to be able to judge of its suitability. I remained there for nine days, and during that time, there was high wind and a rough sea from the south and south-west, which interrupted our operations, but gave good illustration of the place under unfavourable conditions in summer. This experience was valuable as showing the direction it would be necessary to give to a break-water in order to give complete shelter in summer.\n\nI made many inquiries of the people living there and others acquainted with the place in winter in order to get what information I could regarding the extent to which it may be considered ice-free. They all agree that, although extremely cold, the ice does not form over all the bay on the south side till late in the season, and then for about ten days only. Also, that even then there is always open water with drift ice beyond the promontory, and this open water appears to be about 4 li wide, and to extend all along the coast to the south-west from one projecting part of the coast-line to another, which should make navigation practicable. Some of my informants were of the opinion that access to the bay might sometimes be difficult, if not impossible, for about a month in the season, but they were not all agreed that it would be for so long a time. They maintain that the ice when it does form will not bear a man's weight, so that it is unsafe to walk upon. The tidal current seems to run very strong in that place, and there is a rise of tide of 10 feet, which may account for the ice being broken up, or not getting time enough to form properly.\n\nFrom Hulutao, I proceeded down the coast first of all to Hunter's Point or Wang Hai Szu, which seemed also a likely place, but on examination proved to be unsuitable on account of rock and stones on the north-east side and shallow on the south-west, which is said to be constantly frozen.\n\nI went to Ning Yuen Chou and inspected the coast in that vicinity, more especially a place called Wa Sze Tao or Tung Yao Chan, which is only about 18 li from the railway line. Here we took soundings out to a distance of 2,000 feet from the shore in an east and west direction and also from north to south, but found the water too shallow, and from its position, the place seems liable to be frozen up in winter, except where fully exposed to the winds beyond the coast-line and outside the shelter of the hills. That this is the case is also confirmed by statements of villagers living there.\n\nI then went to Chu Hua Tao, on the south-east coast of which is a place which might have served excellently well if our object had been the selection of a small naval port instead of a commercial one. The island is 3 miles long from north-east to south-west; it has numerous hills, some of which are about 800 feet high, and is situated about 6 miles from the mainland, the intervening water being extremely shallow. It seemed that it might be practicable to make a road from the mainland to the island, but it is subject to very rough seas sometimes at high water, which would make such a road a very expensive undertaking in itself. On the island, which is very fertile, are some excellent quarries of granite, where stone has been procured for bridges on the Imperial railways. The water is 40 to 50 feet deep in a sheltered bay on the south-west corner, where the tidal current keeps it free of ice, but its distance from the mainland makes it impracticable as a commercial port. But this fact and the ease with which it could be fortified, its great depth of water, sheltered situation, and other advantages make it worthy of note as a possible naval port for the north. It is situated about 40 miles north of Chin Wang Tao and 20 miles south of Hulutao. If not entirely ice-free, it would have advantages over such a place as the Russian Vladivostock.\n\nAfter leaving Chu Hua Tao, I went to Shan Hai Kuan, but apart from the disadvantage of its nearness to Chinwangtao, I found no suitable place in that locality. It has shallow water and little shelter, so that its bays are constantly frozen out to the coast-line, and it has very little rise of tide to break up the ice.\n\nI finally went to Tien Chiao Chang to judge of the conditions at Chinchow Bay, but found it an impracticable place as a winter port, and only useful for junks in the open season. The water is so shallow that the largest junks have to anchor at a distance of 20 li from the shore: any attempt, therefore, to improve the place by dredging or otherwise would involve prohibitive expenditure. The water is frozen there to the bottom in winter, and Kaochiao is even in a worse condition.\n\nThe result of my examination of the coast has been, therefore, to show decisively that Hulutao is the most suitable, if not the only fit place for a port between Newchwang and Shanhaikuan, and it is fortunately an exceedingly good one, both from its natural conditions and its situation as regards the trade of a large part of Manchuria.\n\nConsidering it first as a winter port, there is not sufficiently accurate knowledge of the winter condition of the Gulf of Liaotung to enable one to judge with any certainty of the period during which it is open to navigation.\n\nWe know that the Liao River is frozen up from about the 24th November to the middle of March, but the fresh water of the river freezes at a temperature much higher than sea water, and before it reaches Newchwang, the waters of the Liao have been cooled to the freezing point by passing through an immense distance of frozen country.\n\nFrom the thermometer records kept at the Harbour-master's office at Newchwang, it appears that through the night, the temperatures are below the freezing point of sea water for two months, from about the end of December till the middle of January, yet the day temperatures are generally so very much higher as to make it probable that the warmth of the days counteracts in a great measure the effect of the cold nights.\n\nConsidering also that the currents and high rise of tide will in themselves break up the ice formed at night time, and that Hulutao, from the configuration of the hills behind it, is fully exposed to the off-shore winds from the north-west, which are frequent at that season, it is easily seen how the ice may be blown to sea and out of the bay, once its connection with the shore is broken. There is no record of ships encountering ice in the gulf when coming to Newchwang after the river is open to navigation.\n\nI am inclined to think, therefore, that the difficulties regarding the ice will not be found so serious as is generally supposed, and that it is highly probable that Hulutao will only be closed to navigation during the coldest months in the year, say, from the middle of January till the middle of February. This can only be satisfactorily proved by making the practical demonstration by means of a well-found steamer, which should be chartered to proceed to Hulutao, say, four times in the winter, the middle of the months of December, January, February, and March. A competent person should be stationed there, also throughout the coming winter, to keep a record of the winds and temperatures and of the tides, and the state of the ice in the bay. By this means, most valuable information will be obtained as to the conditions of the place in view of its suitability for a winter port.\n\nI think, from a long experience gained at Chinwangtao, that we should be quite safe in considering the advantages of Hulutao, on the assumption of its being closed to navigation for about a month.\n\nAs a port for Manchuria in the open season, the advantages of its site are incontestable.\n\nComparing it with other trade routes, it is 60 miles nearer to Mukden than Dalny, and it would have also this advantage - being the gateway port of Manchuria, it would be purely under Chinese control instead of under the Japanese, as is the case of Dalny.\n\nIt is 100 miles nearer Mukden than Chinwangtao.\n\nIts distance from Hsinmintun is 50 miles.\n\nIt is in a district within reach of some of the best coal mines in North China, which are worked at present at Pei-piao and Yichow, but only need to be developed by modern methods and joined by railway in order to secure the coal market of Shanghae, the quality being far superior to anything offered there at present. This alone would make a very important trade for the port.\n\nThese advantages in themselves would secure the success of the port and bring traffic to the Imperial railways and Hulutao, which now goes to Dalny and the South Manchurian Railway.\n\nPage 675",

He sat up in a dazed manner and when his ticket was demanded he, after some delay, tendered 50 cents and it was handed to me. I looked at the man and he appeared to me to be dazed with opium. I remarked this as I passed on. We finished collecting tickets about 25 minutes past 11 p.m. There was no disturbance or noise of any kind while I was on deck. There were 666 passengers on the lower deck. The lower deck is fairly well lit with electric light. If a passenger is asleep he is usually shaken up by his shoulders. I have never seen any member of the crew kick a passenger to wake him up. It is usually opium smokers who have to be wakened by shaking. With 600 passengers on the lower deck it would be impossible to walk across the deck without touching some of them. The accused went round with me to collect the tickets. We sometimes have to shake a man more than once.\n\nChan Kim Cho, Compradore, was called and said: I went down with the captain after some passengers had told me that a man had been kicked to death. It was about 12:30 a.m. I do not know any of the men who spoke to me on the lower deck.\n\n## THE DECISION\n\nDecember\n\nCANTON\n\nTHE HONGKONG WEEKLY PRESS\n\nand the Japanese Doctor of the Reform Army, one English Doctor, and one Doctor of the Canton Ambulance Society. It is reported that the Chinese insist that another trial should be held, this time at the Portuguese Consular Court.\n\nNovember. A dispatch to that effect is said to have been sent by the Viceroy to the Portuguese Consul-General. A boycott of the steamer is also on the programme at the instigation of the Self-Government Association.\n\nH.E. Viceroy Chang has notified General and Military officials of all ranks in the Kwangtung Province that they must not attend strictly to their duties out of the State mourning in accordance with the law. All officials are requested to remain in their respective Bureaux and no leave of absence be granted.\n\nThe 72 Guild Tress comments on the decision of the Court as follows:\n\nIn reviewing the case in which the deceased was wounded by a kick he received near the heart from the foot of the accused, and also a blow given with the hand, both of which were causes of the man's death, it should be said that in both instances there were marks of injuries and there was the clear evidence of numerous persons proving it beyond doubt. Therefore it was impossible for the accused to be excused or held blameless. In reviewing the evidence given by the fellow passengers of the steamer, one of them not only said that the accused did not beat the man to death but that he did not beat anybody at all. The passenger died because he was ill when he went on board the steamer and he died a natural death. They actually hushed up a case of such grave importance. This can only be described as arbitrary, and treating the Chinese people with contempt. The evidence was false and trumped up and there were many contradictions.\n\nAt the conclusion of the enquiry, the British Consul-General said: The proceedings at this preliminary enquiry are not altogether regular, for two reasons: firstly, no definite charge has been framed against the watchman, Noronha, of having caused the death of this passenger. The Viceroy's letter simply states that a Chinese passenger on the Fatshan has been murdered by a foreigner; no further details are given. However, as I learnt from other sources that the watchman Noronha was accused of having done this thing, and as he voluntarily came to this Consulate-General and offered himself for investigation into the truth of the allegations against him, I decided to hold the enquiry.\n\nIn the second place, Noronha is a Portuguese subject and as such, if a serious charge of this nature is preferred against him, he should be tried by his own Consul. But I decided, in consultation with my Portuguese colleague, M. de Moraes, that, in view of the fact that the alleged criminal offence had been committed on board a British steamer by a person on that steamer's articles, and in view of the popular excitement prevailing in regard to this case, it would be expedient that I should first hold a preliminary inquiry into the circumstances attending the death of this passenger on the Fatshan. This I have done in as public and thorough a manner as possible. A deputy from the Viceroy has been present at the hearing, taking notes and cross-examining the witnesses. The public, including members of the Chinese press, have been allowed to be present and the Portuguese Consul-General has occupied a seat in Court.\n\nI have come to the conclusion, after carefully considering all the evidence that has been brought forward yesterday and to-day, that there is not sufficient evidence to justify me in handing over the accused to his Consul on a charge of having caused the death of this passenger. Of the 600 odd passengers on the Fatshan that night, only two came forward to testify that they had seen the accused assault the deceased, and their evidence, for reasons which I have mentioned before, I am bound to regard with grave suspicion. On the other hand, Dr. Davenport's evidence, given in the clearest and most explicit manner, goes to show that the deceased died a natural death. Under these circumstances, the accused, as far as the Court is concerned, is discharged. It is open to the Chinese Authorities, should they consider the result of this enquiry unsatisfactory, to charge the accused in the Portuguese Consular Court, where, I am sure, all charges made against him will receive an impartial and fair hearing. I will ask Mr. Greaves, Messrs. Butterfield and Swire's Agent, to hold himself responsible for Noronha's appearance when called upon.\n\nMr. Greaves gave the necessary assurance.\n\n## CHINESE COMMENTS ON THE CASE\n\nThe local Press is still publishing hostile articles concerning the matter, and a petition has been sent to the Viceroy praying that the body of the deceased may be exhumed and a fresh post-mortem examination held by three doctors, viz.\n\n## EXCITEMENT AT CANTON\n\nThere is great excitement in the City (writes our Canton correspondent) over the decision re the s.s. Fatshan incident. A boycott of the Sternhaut Company's entire fleet appears to be threatening.\n\nI have no doubt the excitement would soon fizzle out if the local authorities were to issue a proclamation explaining clearly to the public the facts of the inquiry or if the proceedings at the inquiry and the evidence of both foreign and Chinese witnesses were translated and published in the leading local papers.\n\nBelow is a translation of a circular issued by the Self-Government Association, which I give is apparently the first step towards a boycott movement:\n\nWe beg respectfully to inform the public that on the night of the 6th day of this moon (29th Nov.), a Chinaman was kicked to death by a foreigner on board the s.s. Fatshan. The following patriotic and eminent persons, viz., Yeong Wo Kai, Cheong Lau Ki, Tung Chun Kwan, and Tam Show Po, were strangers to the deceased, yet they possessed such patriotic and honourable feelings as to come forward as witnesses to give evidence in the case and petitioned the Authorities to obtain redress on behalf of the deceased. This really shows the sincerity of their feelings and ardent love of their country and their brethren.\n\nFrom inquiries made, we learn that all these patriots are business men. For several days they have wasted their precious time and toilsome labour. Those who are regarded as our brothers must really respect them. We have decided to invite these patriots to come to the Association on the 10th day of this moon (3rd instant) for the purpose of taking their photographs, which we will carefully preserve as a remembrance. We therefore invite all our brothers to attend at the Association on that day to pay their respects to them.\n\n## ENCOURAGING NATIVE INDUSTRY\n\nIn a dispatch sent to the Viceroy, the Board of Agriculture, Labour, and Commerce in the Kiang-su Province has stated that the cotton cloth manufactured in the above province is strong, fine, white, and its quality is far superior to that manufactured in Bombay. Hitherto, its consumption has been confined to several southern and eastern provinces, but of late years, this cloth has found its way into those provinces and has been ousting the native cloth. Recently, the Board has received several Imperial Edicts commanding them to encourage native manufactures.\n\nThe Board requests the Viceroy to give instructions to all Military and Police Departments and the Directors of Schools and Colleges in the Province of Kwangtung to purchase the native cloth manufactured in Kiang-su for the use of the military, police, and students. The Viceroy has issued an order to that effect.\n\n## BLACKMAIL\n\nThe International Banking Corporation has again received a letter demanding $100,000 blackmail to be paid within five days on account of a certain Shek Loong junk.\n\n## CANTON-HANKOW RAILWAY\n\nThe total sum of money due on the instalment of the shares of the Canton-Hankow Railway Company amounts to over $1,600,000, out of which about $1,300,000 has been collected by the Company up to the 30th day of the 10th moon (23rd instant). From this amount, the sum of $200,000 has been paid into the Company in drafts or promissory notes to be collected on the date.\n\n## THE FATSHAN LINE\n\nIt is reported that recently complaints have been made by many passengers of the Fatshan Railway of articles missing from the luggage cars.\n\nOwing to the recent increase of railway traffic, many steam launches have been placed on the Canton-Fatshan run, and, if stern measures are not taken to put a check to the pilfering, it is causing great annoyance to travellers, and the bulk of the passenger trade will fall into the hands of the steam launch owners.\n\n## OBJECTION TO A KEROSINE DEPOT\n\nA British firm purchased a piece of land at Samshui for the purpose of building a kerosine depot. The gentry there objected to a kerosine depot and applied to the Sam-shui Magistrate to issue an injunction restraining the firm from erecting the depot on the ground that \"kerosine is dangerous goods.\" The Magistrate reported the matter to the Viceroy, who directed the Provincial Treasurer to investigate and settle the question.\n\n## THE ENTHRONEMENT OF THE NEW EMPEROR\n\nThe Viceroy has received cables from Peking to notify the officials and people of the Kwangtung Province of the enthronement of the young Emperor, which will take place on the 1st day of the 1st moon, and that the Grand Council has decided that the two characters \"Shuen Tung\" shall be the title of the reign of the new Emperor. As it is customary in many lines of trade to use the title of the reigning Emperor on the goods manufactured, the cablegram expressly instructs His Excellency to issue proclamations to the public that all articles and goods now being manufactured for the forthcoming year must bear the title of the new Emperor.\n\n## NEW COINS\n\nThe Viceroy is also in receipt of instructions from the Board of Revenue...\n\n`Mr. Fox's dispatch No. 71 of December 9th, 1909`\n\n343\n\n`Mr. Fox to Viceroy Chang. (JAP 20 1909)`\n\nCanton, December 16th, 1909\n\nYour Excellency,\n\nI have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of Y.E.'s dispatch dated the 10th instant, in which you informed me that a Chinese passenger on the British steamer \"Fatshan\" had been kicked to death by a foreigner.\n\nOn receipt of this dispatch, I at once deputed Vice-Consul Porter to proceed to the Wharf, and in company with Deputy Haish and the Samshui Magistrate, hold an inquest on the body. Dr. Davenport, who had already made an examination that morning, went again to the \"Fatshan\" at the request of the Chinese Authorities and made a second examination in the presence of the officials...\n\nIn the meantime, I had summoned the Portuguese watchman Noronha, who was accused of having caused this passenger's death, and I fixed the following day at 10...",

        "content_text": "# LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL\n\n## TYPHOON RESCUES, REPORT ON THE BUDGET, QUESTIONS BY MEMBERS\n\nThe adjourned meeting of the Legislative Council was held yesterday afternoon, His Excellency the Governor, Sir Frederick Lugard, presiding. Other members present were the Hon. Mr. F. H. May (Colonial Secretary), Hon. Mr. F. A. Hazeland (Acting Attorney General), Hon. Mr. O. M. Messer (Colonial Treasurer), Hon. Mr. P. N. H. Jones (Director of Public Works), Hon. Mr. A. W. Brewin (Registrar General), Hon. Mr. F. J. Badeley (Captain Superintendent of Police), Hon. Dr. Ho Kai, Hon. Mr. Wei Yak, Hon. Mr. E. A. Hewett, Hon. Mr. W. J. Gresson, Hon. Mr. E. Osborne, and Hon. Mr. Murray Stewart.\n\n## FINANCIAL MINUTES\n\nThe Colonial Secretary moved that the following minutes be referred to the Finance Committee.\n\n1. The Governor recommends the Council to vote a sum of $1,600 in aid of the vote, Public Works, Road, current, Water Works, Maintenance of Kowloon.\n\nThe Governor recommends the Council to vote a sum of $800 in aid of the vote, Judicial and Legal Departments, Land Registry Office, Other Charges, Incidental Expenses.\n\nThe Governor recommends the Council to vote a sum of $500 in aid of the vote, Miscellaneous Services, Coal.\n\nThe Governor recommends the Council to vote a sum of $14 in aid of the vote, Charitable Services, Passages and Relief of Destitutes.\n\nThe Colonial Treasurer seconded.\n\nArising out of the financial minutes, His Excellency said: It may interest the members of the Council to know what has been done. On the 22nd, the Caledonia brought in news and signaled to the effect that a large number of dismasted junks had been seen to the south-west and west of Gap Rock. We immediately sent out the tug David Gillies, which was hired from the Dock Company. She left at 3 am. on the same night and arrived on the scene about daylight the following morning. She was instructed to bring in whatever junks she could, and she brought in 52 men from various junks, and towed in one junk. At some time I applied to the Commodore, asking him to give assistance. He sent out two Destroyers, which brought in one junk, and distributed rice and water to the different crews. We sent out with each vessel 200lbs of rice. The next day, Sunday, the two Destroyers again went out and brought in three more junks. They again took out rice and water. On the Monday, further reports reached us from Gap Rock that there were a number of derelict junks floating about. I again communicated with the Commodore, and on Monday night he again sent out two Destroyers and the Cadmus. They have not yet returned. They took 200lbs. of rice each, and the Stanley, which was passing on that day to make her usual fortnightly trip to Gap Rock, also took on 300lbs. of rice. The hire of the David Gillies cost $600 and 2,700lbs of rice cost $13, and the financial question... that the Telemachus brought in \"sloven men\", and the Mathilde six junks, which is a most creditable performance. The Helene also brought in sixteen men, and I have just heard that the Quinte towed a junk into safety. Other vessels have brought in 18 junks. The total rescued are 262 men, and eleven junks.\n\nThe minutes were then referred to the Finance Committee.\n\n## MEMBERS' QUESTIONS\n\nThe Hon. Mr. E. A. Hewett asked the following questions:\nAs it is understood that Mr. Carter, sanitary inspector, has been retired from the Government service, will the Government, taking into consideration the fact of Mr. Carter's good service, and that owing to his age he is now no longer eligible for obtaining fresh employment in a Government or municipal office, recommend to the Secretary of State that under the exceptional circumstances of the case Mr. Carter be granted a special pension of say £10 pa; or as an alternative an offer of re-employment here on similar conditions to those of his former post? In the event of the Government being unable to agree to this, will His Excellency consent to refer the question as now raised to the Secretary of State?\n\nThe Hon. Colonial Secretary's reply was as follows:\n(1) Mr. Carter first received notice of the intention to place him on pension in a letter from the Colonial Office dated the 8th of July.\n(2) It is a fact that Mr. Carter went home on a year's leave on 1st September, 188... He applied for three months' extension of that leave prior to the intimation above referred to conveyed to him on 24th July, and he has been granted an extension of his leave of two months.\n(3) Mr. F. W. Just, of the Colonial Office, in a letter to Mr. Carter dated the 14th of last September wrote: With regard to your request for a special pension I am to observe that you have been granted the addition allowed under the regulations for abolition of office and that it is not possible to consider the grant of a special pension.\n(4) The point has already been placed before the Secretary of State. The Government has already considered the possibility of employing Mr. Carter in some capacity and should a suitable vacancy arise his claims to re-employment will not be overlooked.\n\nHon. Mr. Murray Stewart asked: To whom, for what public purpose, and for how long has the plot of Government ground between the New Law Courts and the Praya been let?\n\nThe Director of Public Works: This ground, with the exception of the strip immediately in front of the Hongkong Club, temporarily occupied by Mr. Chan A Tong for work in connection with his contract for the new Law Courts, has been let since 1st December, 1906, to Messrs. Bang Lee and Co. for their work in connection with the contract for the Post Office. The ground has to be cleared on three months' notice in writing from the Director of Public Works.\n\nHon. Mr. Murray Stewart: Will the Government undertake to have the plot in question cleared and made presentable as soon as it is no longer necessary to the work on the Law Courts and the Post Office to maintain it in its present state?\n\nHis Excellency: It won't be advisable for you to give notice of the question if you desire a definite answer.\n\n## SUBSIDIARY COINAGE\n\nMr. Murray Stewart: Your Excellency, I beg leave to give notice that at the next meeting I shall move the following resolution: That in the opinion of this Council the issue of a new subsidiary coinage convertible at par, would not be successful unless the use of the other subsidiary coins were prohibited within the Colony, and at the circumstances, it is undesirable to take any part of a comprehensive scheme for local currency reform.",

        "content_text": "# THE GOVERNOR'S DEPARTURE\n\n## Chinese Recognise His D Services\n\npresented to His Excellency the Governor, Sir Frederick John Dealtry Lugard, K.C.M.G., C.B., D.S.O., by the representatives of the Chinese Community.\n\nand you have thanked me for the existing conditions. Gentlemen, in this matter, it is I who ought to thank you, who are tendering thanks. My endeavours have simply been directed towards enlisting your co-operation, and towards inviting your efforts to support the Government to teach the people what is best for their welfare, and how such measures as are necessary both to preserve life and to ameliorate the conditions of the poor can be best carried out without causing inconvenience to themselves, or I should say, so as to cause the least possible inconvenience to the people themselves.\n\nI can possibly express to receive this most beautiful address from your hands, and it will give the very greatest pleasure to my wife, to whom you have made such very kind allusions, both in the address and in the words of Dr. Ho Kai. It is usual for such presentations to be made at the time when the Governor on a short visit of His Excellency severs his connection finally from the colony. In my case I am only leaving you for a short time and I hope to be back early in November.\n\nYou have alluded in this address to most of the things which have had my earnest consideration during the past few years, more particularly with regard to the sanitary laws, efforts I have made to remove pre-existing conditions. Gentlemen, in this matter, it is I who ought to thank you.\n\n## THE ADDRESS\n\nThe address was then read by Dr. Ho Kai as follows:-\n\n### Translation of the Chinese Address\n\nOn a lucky day in April of the year 1910, on the occasion of Your Excellency's returning to your home on a holiday of Chinese months, we Chinese representatives of all classes of the community take the opportunity of your departure to present you with a respectful address in token of our esteem.\n\nMore than once have the stars and hoar-frosts returned in their course since Your Excellency came to Hongkong: the benevolence and clemency of your virtuous administration is in the mouth of every passer-by in the streets. Your earnest attention has been devoted to everything that would promote the welfare of the people and the comfort of those who have gathered here from afar. More especially has every movement for the benefit of the people won the confidence of you all, and the Chinese received your heartiest support.\n\nNot once have your actions failed to call forth the public praise. Your Excellency was moved with great sorrow at the frequency with which bodies have been thrown out into the street in Hongkong, and with the determination of taking measures to stamp the practice out, you consulted the Public Dispensaries Committee as to the best means of effecting your purpose; and now there is hardly a trace left of the evil practice.\n\nThe sanitary laws are made to preserve the public health, but the Chinese have always feared their strictness. Since Your Excellency took up office, a compromise has been effected in the administration of the laws while at the same time to the gratification of all classes.\n\nYou have co-operated with the Government and have succeeded largely in instilling confidence and in checking disease and in benefitting the poor people. For this co-operation, gentlemen, in which I include the assistance of the Registrar General, whose influence with you has been the main factor in the success,--for this co-operation I say I thank you heartily, and I look forward, on my return to the colony, to its continuance.\n\nYou have also alluded to the subject of education, a matter of interest, not only as regards the University but also as regards the education given in all our schools throughout the colony. I hope the steps recently taken, and which will be brought into operation without delay, will be effective in decreasing the overcrowding in our schools, in increasing the teaching staff, and in providing an increased number of scholarships so that the children of the poor may reap the benefit of our education equally with the children of the well-to-do class.\n\nAs regards the University, we love it by the generosity of the Cl... and by the generosity of a great firm at Taikoo, we succeeded in getting sufficient funds to establish three faculties. I hope before the University buildings are finished and the doors opened to students that we may double the number of faculties for which we are providing chairs in the University, and increase in the amount of the endowment. (Applause).\n\nDr. Ho Kai, in presenting the address and album, said: May it please Your Excellency, on behalf of the leading members of the Chinese community, I have the honour to-day to present you with an address which has been embroidered on satin, and which I would ask you, sir, to do us the honour to graciously accept as a small token of the high esteem and affection we have for you as our Governor and ruler, as well as our friend and counsellor. (Applause).\n\nIt was our intention, sir, to present you with this address shortly after the laying of the foundation stone of the Hongkong University, but time did not permit us, for we desired to present you with a work of art more worthy of your acceptance, and so we had perforce to wait for this occasion in order to allow us time to get the work properly executed.\n\nSir, it is scarcely three years since your arrival in this colony, but during this comparatively short period you have achieved much by your wise and able administration. You have seen us through a most trying time and succeeded in placing the colony once more on the high road to prosperity and success.\n\nNo one, sir, appreciates more than the Chinese community the immense benefits which you have conferred upon this colony and they are deeply grateful to you, for though we have had a long commercial depression you have succeeded by your broadmindedness and by your incomparable energy and enthusiasm in founding the Hongkong University.\n\nThe vast benefits conferred by such an institution on the colony as a whole, but more especially upon the Chinese, whether resident in this colony or throughout China, are incomparable, and we thank you, sir, most cordially and most gratefully for such a boon. I am sure, sir, future generations will cherish your memory and thank you as gratefully and cordially as we do now.\n\nWe hope, sir, when you get to England, you will be able to do something in England to raise subscriptions for the University. Well, I shall do my best. (Applause). At the same time it is a matter which primarily affects us out here, and a matter which I can leave with confidence in your hands, because I know you are interested in it and I have had examples of your generosity.\n\nI need not say how personally keenly I am interested in the project. That is already well known. Gentlemen, I thank you most cordially and heartily for the kind sentiments which you, sir, have expressed, and for the address you presented to me.\n\nI say good-bye now, only for a short time, and hope soon to be back again, and to renew my friendships here, and during my short absence I trust that the colony may in every way prosper, that the health of the colony during this summer will be good, that the trade depression will cease and that with increased trade you may have increased prosperity and that I shall return in good health to you and with my wife.\n\nLady Lugard, who is most anxious to return to Hongkong. (Applause).\n\nHis Excellency then invited his deputation to be seated.\n\nThe address was beautifully embroidered on a white satin scroll, with Chinese characters of dark blue silk. At the top were two hata in silver signifying Good Luck, and at the foot was a carved ivory roller of beautiful design. The embroidery work gave a lovely finish to the scroll. It was enclosed in a casket of red sandalwood, which was covered with numerous clever designs executed by the carver. The casket was five feet eighteen inches, with silver fittings, while on the top of the lid was a silver monogram of the Governor's initials.\n\nChinese characters were on either side of the monogram speaking of the good work done by His Excellency in the colony. He was also the recipient of an album of red Morocco leather, which bore in silver his monogram and contained the text of the address in both Chinese and English. The album also contained a list of the signatures in English of the donors. It was altogether a fine work of art executed by Canton artists.\n\nThe deputation was received by the Governor and was introduced by the Hon. Dr. Ho Kai, C.M.G., who was supported by his colleague, the Hon. Mr. Wei Yuk, C.M.G. There were also present the Hon. Sir Henry May (Colonial Secretary), the Hon. Mr. A. W. Brewin (Registrar General), Capt. N. Sim- FOLL (private secretary), Capt. P. H. M. Taylor (aide-de-camp), Messrs. Lau Chu-pak, Ng Hon-tai, He Fook, Ho Kom Tong, Wong Leung-him, Yeung Him-pong, Wong Kum-fak, S. W.

        "content_text": "## CHINESE COMMUNITY'S RECOGNITION OF SIR FREDERICK LUGARD'S VIRTUOUS ADMINISTRATION\n\nThe Telegraph reports on Sir Frederick Lugard's coming departure and the Chinese community's recognition of his benevolent administration.\n\nMore than once have the stars and the frosts returned in their course since Your Excellency came to Hongkong: the benevolence and clemency of your virtuous administration is in the mouth of every passer-by in the streets. Your earnest attention has been devoted to everything that would promote the welfare of the people and the comfort of those who have gathered here from afar. More especially has every movement for the benefit of the Chinese received your heartiest support. Not once have your actions failed to call forth the public praise.\n\nThat Sir Frederick Lugard's successful administration of the government of Hongkong in the face of seemingly insuperable difficulties has been recognised by all sections of the community in this Colony is a well-established fact, which was further testified to by the pleasing function that took place at Government House this afternoon. We refer to the presentation of the address and honorific scroll to His Excellency by representatives of all classes of the Chinese community on the eve of the Governor's departure on six months' home leave on Saturday next. The Chinese deputation consisted of high-placed gentlemen of the merchant, compradore, and gentry classes, besides the Chinese unofficial members of the Legislative Council.\n\nThe deputation was received by the Governor in the first ball-room of Government House and was introduced by the Honourable Dr. Ho Kai, CMG, who was supported by his colleague in the Council, Hon. Mr. Wei Yuk, CMG. There were present at the ceremony: H.E. Sir Frederick Lugard, the Hon. Sir Henry May (Colonial Secretary), the Hon. Mr. W. Brewin (Registrar General), Capt. N. Sundson (private secretary), Capt. P. H. M. Taylor (aide-de-camp), Messrs. Lau Chu-pak, Ng Hoa-tsai, Ho Fook, He Kom Tong, Wong Leung-him, Young Him-ping, Wong Kum-fuk, S. W. Tso, Sia Tak-fan, Fong Wa-can, Cheung Si-kai, Li Sai-kam, Lau Yu-nam, Tang Fui-chi, Yu To-shan, Chan Siu-lam, Li Yau-chun, Chau Siu-ki, Wo Wan-cho, Wo Tsai-yong, Lo Kon-ting, Siu Yam-fai, Sam Pak-ming, Li Wing-kwong, Chau Wan-sau, Mok Man-cheung, Tam Hok-pui, Leung Kin-nam, Chan Kang-yi, Lau Pun-chiu, Chia Yee-ting, Chau Pak-yee, Wo Tsa-wan, Yio Kion, Li Po-kwai, Chan Chuk-hing, Tsang Yik-kai, Chan Lok-chun, and He Mok-tuk.\n\nDr. Ho Kai then presented the address to His Excellency amid loud applause. His Excellency, having thanked the gathering for their presentation, said that it gave him the very greatest pleasure to be presented with their most beautiful address and he felt sure it would give the very greatest pleasure to Lady Lugard to hear of their kind sentiments. It was usual for such presentations to be made when a Governor severed his connection with the Colony finally. Fortunately, in his case, he was leaving for a short time only and hoped he would be back in November and once again see all his friends who were gathered around him that day.\n\nDr. Ho Kai had alluded in the address to various matters with which he had identified himself, but more especially to sanitary matters. It had always been his endeavour to invite them to support the Government to teach the people what was best for their welfare and how it could be best carried out so as to afford the least inconvenience to the people. They had come forward in answer to his appeal in a manner which afforded him encouragement and at the same time excited his admiration. In this co-operation, they had been assisted by the Registrar-General, who commanded the complete confidence of the Chinese community.\n\nAfter the formal introduction, Dr. Ho Kai, addressing the Governor, said that on behalf of the leading members and representatives of the Chinese community, he had the honour of presenting His Excellency with an address embroidered on silk. He asked His Excellency to be gracious enough to accept their gift as a small token of the esteem in which His Excellency was held by the Chinese community. It was their intention to present His Excellency with the address shortly after the laying of the foundation stone of the Hongkong University, but time did not permit of their doing so, and they wished to present him with an address worthy of his dignity.\n\nHis Excellency said it was three years since he arrived in the Colony, and during that comparatively short period, the Colony had gained much by his wise administration. He had seen them through the most trying times and placed them once again on the high road to prosperity and success. Although they were just emerging from a long commercial depression, His Excellency had succeeded by his broad-mindedness and energy in founding the Hongkong University. The vast benefit which would be conferred on the Colony as a whole, but more especially on the Chinese, by the University were incalculable. For that, they thanked him most cordially and hoped that generations to come would thank him as cordially.\n\nThey hoped that when he got back to England, he would try and obtain further donations which were urgently required for the University. When he met Lady Lugard, they hoped he would convey to Her Ladyship their affectionate respects and tell her how rejoiced they were to hear of Her Ladyship's complete recovery from her recent illness, and hoped they would have the pleasure of welcoming her back in the following winter.\n\n## THE ADDRESS\n\nDr. Ho Kai then read the address, of which the following is a translation: On a lucky day in April of the year 1910, on the occasion of Your Excellency's returning to your ancestral home on a holiday of six months, we Chinese representatives of all classes of the community take the opportunity of your departure to present you with a respectful address in token of our esteem.\n\nSince Your Excellency came to give peace to this state, all the business of administration has been carried on by you with success, but you have regarded the development of education and the encouragement of talent as your most important duty, and all your energies and faculties have been devoted to the establishment of a University. Now the foundation stone has been duly laid, and the magnificent project is on the way to realization. We feel confident that in the future, the result of the education given in the University will fulfil all expectations.\n\nYour Excellency's kindness will remain a lasting and grateful memory in the hearts of the Chinese. On your departure, therefore, we beg to present you with this address and unite in a prayer that your journey will be made under a lucky star, that you may reach your country in safety and prosper in everything you undertake, and that you may spend your holiday in happiness in the society of Her Excellency Lady Lugard. Convey our respects to her. We trust that you will remember this Colony in your heart and return soon, that we may look again upon the dignity of your countenance and hearken to the grace of your commands. This is our earnest prayer.\n\nDated Hongkong, the 28th day of April, 1910.\n\n[Here follow Signatures.]\n\nThe address in Chinese translation was embroidered on Chinese silk. The honorific scroll was suspended on an ivory ruler with another at the other end of the same material. The scroll was enclosed in an artistically carved case of Chinese design and make, the case being made of red sandalwood. In the centre of the cover was Sir Frederick's monogram in silver, and on each side of the monogram are two Chinese ideographs, which, rendered freely, read: \"Benevolent Government of Hongkong.\" The handles of the beautiful case were also of silver.\n\nAfter the presentation, tea and other refreshments were served. Soon after, the deputation withdrew.",

In order to ascertain the facts of this raid and the actual conditions prevailing in this inaccessible territory I was instructed by His Majesty's Minister to proceed to Tengkeng on a tour of enquiry, and with this object I left my post at Tengyueh on the 7th April, 1910, accompanied by an escort of ten soldiers from the regular Chinese army which was considered necessary for my safety by the Taotai, as the route ran through the ill-reputed country of the Lisu tribesmen. It may be presumed that the Taotai had reported to the Viceroy at Yünnan-fu the representations which had been made through me regarding the raid, and his refusal to consider the request of the Government of Burmah for the punishment of Tengkeng and the payment of compensation to the villages; in notifying my departure he ventured the suggestion that, although my journey might have been planned merely for purposes of mahseer fishing, he had shrewd suspicions of ulterior motives, as the Salween Valley could scarcely be regarded as a pleasure resort at this season of the year.\n\nJourney through Mingkuang.-On leaving Tengyueh a series of long and narrow valleys, divided by steep and well-defined ranges, and watered by branches of the Taping and Shweli Rivers, run in a due northerly direction till they are blocked at their ends by the range, which strikes east from Manung Pum till it joins the main Irrawady-Salween Divide, and which itself forms the watershed between the N'Maikha and Shweli systems. After reaching Kutung Kai I advanced along the route through the Mingkuang Valley, which rises in a chain of cultivated and well-watered \"patzu\" or plains of gradually increasing altitude till it meets the cross range at its northern extremity. The consulate writer, who accompanied Mr. Litton in 1905, did not cease to exclaim at the progress made by the Chinese settlers since his previous journey; flourishing markets have sprung up along the route, every available acre is under cultivation, and there remain but a few miles to the extreme north where the original Lisu population retain possession of the land, and where grazing grounds are still available for the wandering herds of cattle, sheep, and ponies. The remaining four valleys to the north of Tengyueh are thickly populated and cultivated to the limit of the frontier line, but, although Mingkuang is advancing more slowly in agricultural development, it is undoubtedly the richest of the five belts, and the recent journeys of Mr. Coggin Brown of the Geological Survey of India prove that it is an intensely mineralised area, rich deposits of gold, silver, iron, and copper lying in close proximity to the frontier range, and in many places these are now being worked with Chinese labour and native methods. At the head of this valley one passes from the zone of bare, treeless hills and intense cultivation to a country in which the masses of limestone cliff rise from the pines and evergreens of forest-clad slopes, the foaming torrent of the Mingkuang stream winds a white course through the bracken, the calls of pheasant, sambur, and barking deer break the silence of the morning, and rhododendrons of rich red and white, briar roses, and pyrus japonica, gleam out with a wonderful brilliancy of colour from the grey mists that herald the coming rains, whilst in the forest clearings the ground is carpeted with a purple glow of dainty primulas and ground orchids, raising their heads above the tawny masses of last year's bracken. Even the Chinese were moved to wonder at the beauty of the land, and they twined garlands of flowers in the bridles and packs of the mules, or round the muzzles of their Mauser rifles, which have fallen sadly from their high estate since they were issued new and bright in the year of our Lord 1871.\n\nTa Chu Pa. The fifth day's march brought us to the end of the valley at Ta Chu Pa, where a scattered population of eighty Lisu families eke out a scanty subsistence, and five strongly stockaded Chinese houses form the head-quarters of a thriving trade in coffin planks, which are brought from the forests beyond the range. Here we halted for a day in the hope of getting some information regarding the recent raid, and Hsü Linhsiang, one of the Chinese timber merchants, informed me that he was in part responsible for the petition for assistance, reported in my despatch of the 24th February, but that he could add nothing to his original information as the Tengkeng Sawbwa had threatened to behead him, and that he was therefore banished from his home in the N'Maikha Valley. On the following day the son of the Pienma headman arrived at Ta Chu Pa, and sent a message that spies of Tongkeng and the Pao-shan magistrate were in the village, and had threatened his life if he had any dealings with me; during the night the Chinaman Hsü was kidnapped by these men, and hurried away to Yungchang-fu, and I realised that, as the Chinese had taken such precautions to block my enquiries in Ta Chu Pa, it would be of little use to proceed to Tengkeng. I decided therefore that my only hope of ascertaining the true facts of the case would be to make a forced march across the passes to Pienma, and see for myself what had actually happened. It appeared unwise to proceed into the unadministered territory with a Chinese escort, and in view of the fact that the expedition of 1905 had lost thirty mules on the first day's march, the road was proved impossible for a heavily equipped party. The escort was therefore dispatched in charge of all heavy baggage by the road running through Chinese territory to Tengkeng, and I managed to engage a number of Lisu porters to carry sufficient kit for a week for myself and my personal servants; there was little enthusiasm for the journey, and it was difficult to decide who felt the more aggrieved, the escort who were \"being deserted,\" and left to face the terrors of the road alone, or the men who were to penetrate the \"inner land,\" relying on the protection of a shot-gun, and an assortment of various medicines, the latter of which I have found an unfailing passport to the affections of the frontier tribesmen, the application of salts and embrocations ensuring perennial mental gratification even if their virtues were somewhat misapplied for purposes of physical relief.\n\n3\n\nJourney to Pienma.-On the seventh day we commenced the ascent of the range, the track lying through miles of tangled bamboo brake and dense forest jungle, through which an advance guard of Lashi Kachins hewed a way with their dhas, whilst the ponies struggled and slipped on the steep mountain paths, scrambling over the trunks of great fallen trees, and wading through the rocky torrents. This track is regularly used for a few months of the year by Lisu and Lashi porters, carrying coffin planks from Kangfang down to Mingkuang, but their path was scarcely discernible in the jungle, and the heavy rains which had fallen for several weeks had made of the low-lying portions a hopeless morass. After a long climb we reached the Pass of Ten Shui-ling, and here I was somewhat surprised to find that the tribesmen had a very clear and definite idea of the principle of the frontier. Pointing to the two streams which trickled in opposite directions down the mountain sides they explained that the parting formed the border line between Great Britain and China, and gave me such an insight into the practical meaning of a Divide, as would have proved a liberal education to those distinguished officers of the Chinese Government who in 1904 committed themselves to the statement that in this district the watershed lay at the foot of the mountains. Then with a certain courtesy that went to the heart of the situation, the Lisus handed me over to the Lashis as their guest, and we continued our journey down into the valley of the Ngawchang Kha (known by the Chinese as the Hsiao Chiang). On arrival at the first camp the weather broke, and for five days and nights the rain poured down in ceaseless torrents. The little single-fly tents could not resist the storm, clothes and bedding were sodden, the weight of the porters' loads was greatly increased, and the poor fellows spent their nights in the open, with no protection from the wet ground, or from the beating rain, save a layer of palm fibre. After seeing the hard lives that these tribesmen lead, and the triumph of the elements in their mountain homes, one wonders little at the animism forming the basis of all their faith, or at the fact that the rain and thunder, the lightning, the wind, the forest, and the mountains are all held by demons of malice, whose wrath can only be appeased by offerings and sacrifice. On one day we were obliged to march from dawn till dark without a halt for rest or food, as we found no clearing in the jungle, and the country was reported by the natives to be full of poisonous herbs which the ponies would eat if they halted, with fatal results, and it was therefore with intense relief that we at last saw the Pienma villages on a distant hillside, and felt that the worst of the journey was past. For one brief moment a glimpse of a magnificent snowy range to the north-west marked the division of the Lashi country from that of the Wild Marus, and shortly afterwards we were met by a number of headmen and villagers from Pienma (Hpimaw), who had come out in spite of the storm to offer a welcome.\n\nThe headmen had heard of my approach and evidently believed that Litton had come back, for they said they had waited five years for my return, and there was evident disappointment when they found that there was no army of occupation at my back. They poured forth their grievances at once, however, stating that there were twenty Chinese soldiers in Pienma, that two deputies of the Yungchang prefect were ...\n\n324",

        "content_text": "## ROMAN CATHOLIC SERVICE\n\nSimultaneously with the service at St. John's Cathedral, a special service took place at the Roman Catholic Cathedral. The spacious building was filled with a devout congregation, and the proceedings were of a solemnity and impressiveness that affected all worshippers and helped them to realise the importance of the great event. Low Pontificial Mass was celebrated by his Lordship Bishop Pozzoui, assisted by Monsignor P. de Maria, Rev. L. Robert, and Rev. Father Noval, while the Rev. G. M. Spada and the Rev. A. Placzek were Masters of Ceremonies, the former acting for the clergy and the latter for the congregation. The order of service was as follows:\n\n* Coronation March, Rich Eilenberg, by members of the Sociedade Philharmonica, conducted by Prof. F. Gonzales.\n* Mass of the Day with collect for the Elected King.\n* During the Mass the following music was rendered:\n\t+ Veni Creator, German Core, by the Cathedral choir and friends.\n\t+ Andante Religioso, Francis Thome, by the Sociedade Philharmonica.\n\t+ Sanctus, Perosi, by the Cathedral choir.\n\t+ Largo e Mesto, Beethoven, by the Sociedade Philharmonica.\n* During the benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, the following hymns were sung:\n\t+ O Salutaris, Webb, by the Cathedral choir.\n\t+ Te Deum, Gregorian, by the choir and clergy.\n\t+ Tantum Ergo, G. Mercanti, by the Cathedral choir.\n\t+ Laudate Dominum, by the choir and friends.\n* The service closed with the singing of \"God save the King,\" by the choir, clergy, and congregation, accompanied by the band of the Sociedade Philharmonica.\n\n## THE JEWISH SERVICE\n\nAt the special service held in the Ohel Leah Synagogue, the following prayer was offered after the sermon and the opening of the Ark:\n\nAlmighty God and everlasting King! From the place of Thy habitation Thou lookest upon all the indwellers of the earth. By Thee kings reign and princes rule. Thou establishest their throne, and in Thy hand is their glory and their might.\n\nPrayer for the King and the Royal Family,\n\nMay He who giveth salvation unto kings and dominion unto princes, Whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, Who delivered His servant David from the hurtful sword, Who maketh a way in the sea and a path in the mighty waters - may He bless, protect and exalt our Sovereign Lord, King George, Our Gracious Queen Mary, Alexandra, the Queen Mother, Edward, Prince of Wales, and all the Royal Family.\n\nMay the Supreme King of Kings in His mercy preserve the King, guard him, and deliver him from all trouble, sorrow and hurt. May He make his enemies fall before him, and in whatsoever he undertaketh may he prosper. May the Supreme King of Kings in His mercy put a spirit of wisdom and understanding into his heart and into the hearts of all his counsellors, that they may uphold the peace of the realm, advance the welfare of the nation, and deal kindly and truly with all Israel. In his days and in ours may Judah be saved and Israel dwell securely; and may the Redeemer come unto Zion. O that this may be His will, and let us say, Amen.\n\nThe Ark was then closed.\n\n## THE PARSEE SERVICE\n\nAlmost all the members of the Parsee Community were present at their Club premises at the corner of Elgin and Shelley Streets at 4 p.m. in the afternoon for a religious service. A special prayer was recited by the Priest, the whole congregation remaining standing. The following is the translation of the prayer from Gujarati:\n\n1. Blessed be the name of Holy Abura-Mazda! Almighty Abur-Mazda, Holy, Heavenly, Pure; give ear, we beseech Thee, to the prayers of Thy Mazdayaçnian servants, and satisfy us with Thy Mercy.\n2. Receive our heartfelt thanks, O Almighty God, that Thou art pleased this day to set a peerless crown upon the head of our Gracious Sovereign, King Emperor George.\n3. Vouchsafe to him, Merciful Creator, Thy majesty. Thou hast set Thy servant, George, upon the throne of his fathers. Thou knowest his heart, that it has ever been his desire and happiness to seek the welfare of his people and to execute Thy laws in the land.\n\nBehold, the day hath come that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it, the day on which he has been anointed King, when the crown of sovereignty has been placed upon his head, the day when he lifted up his hand to heaven and took the oath, that he would rule over his people according to the Statutes of the realm, and cause Law and Justice in Mercy to be executed.\n\nTherefore we have come into Thy house, and worship toward Thy holy temple. Hearken unto the voice of our cry, our King and our God, for unto Thee do we pray. May it please Thee to bless our Sovereign Lord the King: O God, save the King! May the King live! May the King live for ever! May Thine arm strengthen him to bear the heavy yoke of governance.\n\nEven as Thou hast set a diadem of fine gold upon his head, so crown him with honour and glory, with mercy and loving-kindness. Anoint him with the oil of gladness. Vouchsafe unto him the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of knowledge and fear of Thee, so that all the nations that dwell beneath his sceptre, the sceptre of righteousness, may abide in peace and tranquillity.\n\nPour out the riches of Thy heavenly goodness upon Queen Mary, who standeth at the right hand of the King in gracious majesty. Verily on her tongue is the law of kindness. Her eyes are upon the poor and upon those that are bruised in spirit. Her heart goeth out to those that are stretched upon the bed of languishing. Give her the desire of her heart, and do not withhold the request of her lips. Bless the Queen Mother, Heir Apparent, and all the members of the Royal House.\n\nWithdraw not, we beseech Thee, Thy loving-kindness from this realm. Shield the indwellers thereof. Remove from them pestilence, sword, famine and sorrow. Spread the days when peace will flourish throughout the world, when the earth will be full of the knowledge of Thee, as the waters cover the sea.\n\nGrant unto our Sovereign Lord the King, the spirits of heavenly piety, as also Thy spirit of wisdom for his guide and Thy arm for his strength, so that in his godliness, and in his unfained spirit of wisdom and strength, Justice, Truth, Peace and Love may flourish in his days to promote the well-being, solidarity and unity of his various subjects of all classes and creeds.\n\n4. We pray unto Thee, O Merciful Mazda, to bestow upon our illustrious Sovereign splendour and glory, health, vigour and victoriousness of body, wealth which may bring all prosperity, a long line of descendants gifted with intelligence, a long life and the best, brilliant and glorious life of the Pious.\n\n5. We beseech Thee, O Bountiful Giver of all Good, to be favourable to our ruler, and to bestow of Thy bounty upon his head the full blessings of the annihilation of famine and pestilence wherever prevailing in his wide dominions, and to endow, in his vast Empire, the happiness and cheer of fruitful peace and gladsome plenty.\n\n6. We supplicate Thee, O Merciful Creator, to crown the fulness of his days with the fulness of Thy divine blessings, grace and love, and receive our humble prayers, O Almighty God, that those and all Thy other gifts may be long continued, and crown him with immortality in the life to come.\n\n7. Listen, we pray Thee, to this earnest invocation of Thy servants of the Zoroastrian faith in Hongkong, and grant us our wishes.\n\n8. Merciful and Gracious Abura-Mazda, we again beseech Thee to give ear to our prayers and to extend Thy divine blessings, favour and love, out of Thy bounteous grace, upon our Gracious Queen Mary.\n\n[June 22, 1911]\n\n## THE PUBLIC MEETING\n\nThe public meeting to endorse the telegraphic addresses to be sent to Their Majesties took place in the City Hall shortly after noon. As was to be expected, the building was taxed to its utmost, all sections of the community being represented in the large gathering. Among those present were the American Delegates from Manila, who were accompanied by Captain Agg, K.O.Y.L.I. Sir Francis Piggott, Chairman of the Coronation Committee, on the entrance of His Excellency, proposed that the Governor preside over the meeting.\n\nHis Excellency then said: - Ladies and gentlemen, - To-day in both hemispheres, in every part of the world, and in every sea where the British flag flies, the subjects of our King are uniting to do homage and to wish him prosperity in his Coronation. They testify their loyalty and reverently and earnestly express their hopes that his reign may be long, prosperous and peaceful. To-day the Crown of his ancestors - that Crown which is the symbol of unity of the Empire - will be placed upon his head in the historic hall where a long line of British kings have been crowned, with all the pomp and circumstance of the old-time ritual. We in Hongkong do not come second to any British community in our loyalty to our King and the Throne. (Applause) We are celebrating to-day this historic event with rejoicing and with prayer. We desire to transmit to His Majesty our expressions, our heart-felt good wishes and congratulations, and our desires for his long and prosperous reign. I have, therefore, asked you to meet here in the City Hall to-day that you may hear the telegrams and addresses, and may approve them which it is proposed to send.\n\nThe Executive and Legislative Councils, in joint session with the Judges, send the following telegram:\n\nThe Executive and Legislative Councils of Hongkong, and the Judges of Hongkong, on behalf of Your Majesty's subjects in the Colony, beg most humbly to offer their loyal and respectful congratulations to You on the Occasion of the Coronation of Your Majesty as King and Emperor, and of Her Majesty Queen Mary. We pray that the event which is celebrated to-day may inaugurate a long and glorious reign for Your Majesties and an era of happiness, prosperity and honourable peace for Your Majesty's Kingdom and Empire.\n\nThe Coronation Committee, on behalf of the community, and on behalf of every race and nationality, has submitted the following telegram:\n\nHis Majesty's subjects in Hongkong present their loyal homage to the King, and the people of other nationalities within the borders of the Colony join with them in offering respectful congratulations to Their Majesties and in wishing them a long and happy reign.\n\nThe Chinese community propose to lay before the King at his Coronation at Delhi, which I hope to attend, a beautifully embroidered scroll expressing their loyalty and good wishes. The translation will be read to you presently by Mr. Chan Kai Ming.\n\nI may add that I received this morning by mail intimation from the Secretary of State that it was the intention of the King to present to this Colony portraits of himself and the Queen. (Applause)\n\nHis Excellency then asked the gathering to express their approval by holding up their hands. There was a full show of hands.\n\nMr. Ng Hon Tsz then read the Chinese address in the vernacular, and Mr. Chan Kai Ming read the translation in English as follows:\n\nTO HIS MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY GEORGE THE FIFTH\n\nBy the Grace of God, King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India, Supreme Lord in and over the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies.\n\nAll the Chinese subjects and Chinese residents in Hongkong with uplifted hands and bowed heads dutifully present this address.\n\nBoth speakers were warmly applauded. Hon. Dr. Ho Kai asked His Excellency to present the embroidered copy of the address bound in red morocco to H. M. The King.\n\nOn the call of His Excellency three hearty cheers were given for the King, and the meeting dispersed.\n\n## ADDRESS FROM THE FREEMASONS\n\nThe Masonic bodies in Hongkong are sending the following address:\n\nTo HIS MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY KING GEORGE V - By the Grace of God, King of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India.\n\nThe Order of Freemasonry was cradled in that divine Faith whereof Your Majesty is the Defender, and is founded on the purest principles of piety and virtue. It teaches those heavenly principles of our duty to God, our duty to our neighbour, and our duty to ourselves, and reminds us of the constant need in our daily life of the practice of those truly kingly attributes Benevolence and Charity.\n\nThe Freemasons of this remote District rejoice greatly therefore that Your Majesty has been graciously pleased to become the Grand Patron of our Charities, and that Her Majesty the Queen has consented to be their Grand Patroness.\n\nLoyalty, Fidelity and Obedience have ever been among the watchwords of our Orders, and Your Majesty has no more devoted subjects than those who range under our banners.\n\nMay the Great Architect of the Universe grant, in His infinite wisdom, that Your Majesty's life may exceed the span of man's allotted term and that Your reign may be blessed with every Happiness for Your Majesty, for our beloved Queen Mary and for the members of Your Royal Family, and with Peace, Joy and Prosperity for Your Majesty's loyal subjects in all lands.\n\n## THE ROYAL SALUTE\n\nAt noon the warships in the harbour, both British and foreign, and the shore batteries, joined in a royal salute.\n\n## THE CORONATION PARADE\n\nOwing to the unsettled state of the weather, the review which was fixed to take place at 8 a.m. yesterday was postponed until the afternoon. The postponement proved propitious, for the rain held off and the parade was participated in and watched under pleasant weather conditions. A cloudy sky obscured the sun's rays and minimised the heat. An exceptionally large crowd surrounded the race course, and the quantity of bunting displayed gave the Valley the holiday appearance which it wears during race week. The troops were massed in the enclosure, and as they went through their preliminary evolutions presented an imposing appearance.\n\nAt four o'clock His Excellency the Governor arrived, and a royal salute was fired by the guns of two batteries, one stationed at the north, and one at the south end of the enclosure. His Excellency, accompanied by Major-General Anderson, Colonel St. John, Major Tulloch, Captain Grotton, Commodore Eyres, Captain Taylor, Captain Simson and an Indian A.D.C., inspected the troops and then returned to the saluting base. Preparations were made for the march past, and when all was in readiness the order was given, and to the strains of \"Sons of the Sea\" and regimental airs the naval brigade and the different regiments marched past in column.\n\n| Unit | Strength |\n| --- | --- |\n| Royal Marines | 513 |\n| Royal Navy | 176 |\n| Royal Garrison Artillery | 407 |\n| H.K.S.B., B.G.A. | 209 |\n| Royal Engineers | 175 |\n| K.Y.L.I. | 422 |\n| 8th Rajputs | 708 |\n| 126th Baluchis | 713 |\n| Total | 3,468 |\n\nAfter the march past the European troops were formed into a hollow square around the saluting base, with the K.O.Y.L.I. band near the flagstaff. His Excellency read the messages of congratulation and loyalty which were forwarded to the King, and then the troops raised three hearty cheers to His Majesty which reverberated among the hills.\n\nAn impressive drum head service followed. To the music of the K.O.Y.L.I. band the troops and the spectators joined in the hymn, \"O God, our help in ages past.\" Lessons were read and prayers offered by naval and military chaplains, and the service closed with the singing of the first verse of the National Anthem, in which thousands of voices joined.\n\nThe Indian regiments then gave three lusty cheers for the King, after which the troops, four deep, marched through the city to barracks.\n\n## ENTERTAINING THE CHILDREN\n\nThe school children were entertained in their various schools yesterday morning. The address of H.E. the Governor, in which he appropriately referred to the lessons of the Coronation, was read, and the medals were distributed to the children, after which they were treated to refreshments, etc.\n\n## THE DECORATIONS\n\nThe decorations were on a most extensive scale. In the harbour practically every vessel was beflagged from stem to stern, and foreign merchantmen joined with British in making a display of bunting. The Monmouth, Astræa, Flora and Tamar had a profusion of bunting, and the visiting American and Japanese gunboats contributed to the colour scheme on the water.\n\nAshore the principal decorations were on the water front, in Queen's Road, and at the various barracks. In the city the centre of attraction was Statue Square. Here various coloured standards had been erected, and from these were suspended festoons of greenery, each standard also bearing a green circle of foliage. Bannerettes also fluttered in the breeze. The buildings facing the harbour were embellished with the national colours, Japanese lanterns, etc., while practically every office showed a flag. As usual the Chinese made a brave display, and the quaint arches erected in various parts of the city were very striking indeed.\n\n## ILLUMINATIONS\n\nThe buildings on the water front and in Queen's Road were covered with lanterns which showed up very effectively. York Buildings had a beautiful frontage of red lamps, and the buildings along the Praya had their illuminations which added to the general effect. On Kowloon side the illuminated arch was very conspicuous, but the most picturesque sight was presented by the warships which were outlined with lights, the American ship _Ralston_ introducing a striking contrast with red lamps. The _Fatshan_ was hung with lamps, and smaller craft had their illuminations also. The grand scheme of illumination will not be seen until to-night.\n\nChinese fireworks were set off from the Parade Ground and in front of the Hongkong Club, and Japanese fireworks from the Public Gardens. The pyrotechnic display appealed to all sections of the community and was greatly appreciated.",

        "content_text": "# THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1911\n\n## THE KOWLOON-CANTON RAILWAY.\n\n### THROUGH CONNECTION ESTABLISHED. FORMAL OPENING OF THE CHINESE SECTION.\n\nOn the invitation of the Directorate General of the Chinese Imperial Railways, a number of guests from Hongkong and Canton assembled at Samchun yesterday to participate in the opening ceremony of the Chinese Section of the Canton-Kowloon Railway. The occasion was a memorable one, for it marked the connection of Hongkong and Canton by rail, and incidentally saw a material advancement in the scheme which aims at linking East and West with rails of steel.\n\nUnfortunately, His Excellency the Viceroy of Canton and His Excellency the Governor of Hongkong were unable to attend the opening ceremony. But there were many prominent men present, both from the Chinese capital and Hongkong. For a few days prior to the date fixed for the opening of the line, rumours were rife that the revolutionaries intended to make their presence felt at the ceremony, and the visitor yesterday was inclined to place some credence in those rumours when he witnessed a large number of braves assembled in the vicinity where the function was to take place. The station at Samchun, which was festooned with greenery, was also guarded by armed men, who were drawn up a number of paces apart on either side. Along the side of a hillock which overlooked the shed in which the tiffin was held, another guard of soldiers was entrenched, while other braves were posted around the doors of the shed.\n\nThe train from Canton, with its gorgeously decorated engine, was the first to arrive at Samchun, and the arrivals from Canton were on the platform when the train from Hongkong drew up at the station. While greetings were being exchanged between Hongkong and Chinese officials and others, the following were observed to be among the number present: Hon. Mr. W. D. Barnes (Colonial Secretary), Hon. Mr. C. H. Ross, Hon. Mr. H. E. Pollock, Hon. Mr. C. G. Alabaster, Hon. Mr. W. Chatham, C.M.G., His Honour Mr. Justice Gompertz, His Lordship Bishop Lander, Captain F. W. Lyons, Dr. Stedman, Mr. J. W. Jamieson, C.M.G., Mr. C. Clementi, Dr. J. W. Hartley, Messrs. E. D. C. Wolfe, H. W. Looker, A. H. Harris, M. H. Logan, E. S. Kadoorie, W. S. Bailey, S. Moore, Garibaldi, R. M. Dyer, H. Gilman, E. A. Stanton, A. Tigges, R. F. Matheson, A. Ellis, W. S. Brown, and W. E. L. Shenton, His Excellency Li Ching Feng, His Honour Chen Wang Cheng, His Honour C. H. Chao, Taotai Cheng Yung, His Excellency Lung Chien Chang, Hon. Dr. Ho Kai, Hon. Mr. Wei Yak, Messrs. Lau Chu Pak and son, Ng Hou Tsz, S. W. Tso, Chan Kai Ming, Fung Wa Chuen, Yeung Hee, Lau Tu Chung, Taung Yuet Kai, Kwok Yick Ting, Leang Lai Mun, Tao Fat Shao, Chau Siu K, Leung Pui Chi, Wong Tsze Loung, Lau Yau Chuo, Yung Yik Ting, Ngan Hung Po, and Captain Wu.\n\nThe arrival being just before the hour fixed for tiffin, adjournment was made to a large galvanized shed near the station where the lunch was laid out. The Chinese proved admirable hosts and soon had their guests seated. A novel feature of the tiffin, apart from the military atmosphere which surrounded it, was the attendance of a Chinese band which played foreign music with passable success. Sufficient time having been allowed for the repast, the band played a stanza of the British National Anthem, after which the toasts of the day were proposed and responded to.\n\nH.E. LI CHING FENG, Commissioner of Foreign Affairs, in proposing \"Success to the Canton-Kowloon Railway,\" said: - I and my official colleague, the Taotai of Industry and Commerce, have had the honour to be deputed by His Excellency the Viceroy of the Two Kwongs to represent him here to-day upon this auspicious occasion (His Excellency being prevented by other pressing official matters from attending in person). The connection and opening of the whole line of this, the Canton-Kowloon Railway, to-day, is an event which may be regarded as of extreme importance, establishing as it does a new facility of travel and transportation between the two friendly countries concerned. It is our fervent hope that this day will mark a new phase in the period of the commercial relations between our countrymen and their British friends, and that the advent of this railway will prove to be another link in the binding chain of friendship which has so long existed and tended to promote the welfare of our respective peoples and encourage the expansion of their trade. (Applause.) Our official and commercial circles alike are indebted to those gentlemen on both sections of the line who have so ably supervised the construction of this railway, and we should take this opportunity of expressing to them our hearty congratulation and thanks for the praiseworthy manner in which they have discharged their multifarious duties. May the life of this line henceforth be one of undisturbed harmony, and may the line itself tend, as is its object, to facilitate and expand the commercial and industrial relations at both its ends; and with that wish and in the name of His Excellency Tsang Ming Ki, Viceroy of the Kwongs, we have much pleasure in declaring this Railway connected and opened to public traffic this 13th day of the 8th moon in the 3rd year of Hsuan Tung, being the 4th day of October in the year one thousand nine hundred and eleven. (Applause.)\n\nHon. Mr. BARNES, Colonial Secretary of Hongkong, in reply, said: Your Excellencies and Gentlemen, - Of the four names down on the toast list to return thanks to the toast proposed, mine happens to be that of the...",

        "content_text": "# DEATH OF HON. MR. WARREN BARNES\n\nSeldom has Hongkong been so deeply stirred as it was on Saturday night when the news became known that the Hon. Mr. Warren Delabere Barnes, Colonial Secretary, had expired that evening with startling suddenness on the Polo Ground at Causeway Bay. Mr. Barnes had taken part in a practice match on the ground, and as the last chukka was finished he rode up with the other players in answer to the bell. Before he reached the pavilion he was seen to fall upon the neck of his pony.\n\nAs he did not rise, the others, who included Surgeon Hastings, R.N., rushed to his assistance and were horrified to discover that he was dead. The shock to all present was great, and a painful impression was created when the tragic occurrence was reported in the city. The body was removed to the Government Civil Hospital. Heart failure was the cause of death.\n\nA dance which was to have been given by Lady Lugard at Government House on Saturday night was at once abandoned.\n\nThough Mr. Barnes had only been in Hongkong some three or four months, he had made for himself many friends who, with the general public, will regret his sudden and untimely death. In the short time in which he had been here, he proved himself a very capable official, and acquired a knowledge of local affairs which was remarkable. This was recognised by His Excellency the Governor, who had contemplated a journey to India to be present at the Durbar, leaving Mr. Barnes to administer the Government during his absence. In the Legislative Council, the late Colonial Secretary showed a good grasp of most matters which came up for discussion, and won the good opinion of members by his readiness and lucidity in debate. Moreover, his courteous manner charmed all, and this aspect of his personality endeared him to all with whom he came in contact both officially and socially.\n\nMr. Barnes was educated at King's College School and Pembroke College, Cambridge. He went to the Straits Settlements as a cadet in November, 1888, passing his final examination in Chinese in 1891. Two years later, he became Third Magistrate at Penang, and afterwards became acting Protector of Chinese in Perak. His next position was to the post of warden of mines in Perak, to which he was appointed in 1896, and three years later, he was transferred to Pahang as warden of mines, Protector of Chinese, and senior magistrate. In December, 1901, he was promoted to Penang as assistant Protector of Chinese, and two years afterwards, he was acting Commissioner of Lands and Mines in the Federated Malay States, which was followed by his selection to act as British Resident at Pahang. He was chosen in 1904 to discharge the duties of acting Protector of Chinese for the Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States.\n\n## THE FUNERAL\n\nThe funeral took place yesterday, the cortege passing the monument shortly after 4:30 p.m. The large and representative attendance bore testimony to the esteem and respect in which the deceased gentleman was held. The cortege, as it wound its way to the cemetery, was headed by the K.O.Y.L.I. band playing funeral marches. On either side of the hearse, which was laden with wreaths, walked four members of the Hongkong police and members of the Executive and Legislative Councils. Then followed His Excellency the Governor and other members of Council, Mr. C. Clementi (Assistant Colonial Secretary), the A.D.C's., the Consuls, a detachment of police, and a large number of naval and military officers, including Major-General Anderson, C.B., the Officer Commanding the Troops. The attendance included His Lordship Bishop Pozzoni, His Honour Mr. Justice Gompertz, Sir Paul Chater, C.M.G., Hon. Dr. J. M. Atkinson, Hon. Mr. E. A. Hewett, Hon. Mr. W. Chatham, C.M.G., Hon. Mr. A.

Lambert, and many others, including Mr. Chan Kai Ming and other representative Chinese residents.\n\nThe police bore the body to the Civil Service section of the cemetery, and the remains were laid to rest on a little plateau surrounded by pine and palm trees. The funeral service was conducted by His Lordship the Bishop of Victoria, assisted by the Rev. F. T. Johnson (Colonial Chaplain). Wreaths were sent by Major-General and Mrs. C. A. Anderson, Mr. and Mrs. N. J. Stabb, the Governor, Mr. and Mrs. C. Lauder, the Captain Superintendent and the members of the Police Force, the Superintendent, officers, and members of the Fire Brigade, the officers of the Army Service Corps, the officers of the R.G.A., the officers of the K.O.Y.L.I., His Honour Mr. H.

        "content_text": "# Mr. H. A. Thornton, I.C.S., superintendent, Northern Shan States; Mr. W. H. L. Cabell, I.C.S., deputy commissioner, Bhamo; Mr. D. W. Rae, assistant superintendent, Sinlumkaba; Mr. D. W. Kiernander, assistant superintendent, Kutkai; Captain B. E. A. Pritchard, I.A., battalion commandant, Lashio; Mr. Smart, R.A., Bhamo Battalion; and \n\nThe consul. \n\nColonel G. Pereira, C.M.G., D.S.O.; Captain Blackwell, R.A.M.C.; and Mr. Morris, \nof the East Surrey Regiment, also visited the camp. \n\nThe Chinese representatives were: \n| Name | Position |\n| --- | --- |\n| Keng Pao-kuei | Tuotai of Tenguch |\n| Chao Kai-bsuan | Frontier deputy |\n| Hsu Chai-yu | Sub-prefect of Lungling |\n| Kuang kuei-yuan | Newly-appointed assistant frontier deputy |\n| Colonel Wang Kuei-ching |  |\n\nColonel Chung was also under orders to attend, but was retained at his post owing to the northern unrest. \n\nThe meeting commenced very satisfactorily, the Chinese party calling upon us first with a large escort and considerable state. The Burmah officers, who have been responsible for the British camp during the last two years, have carried out the plans in a way which certainly did credit to their Government, and it was evident that the Chinese had been impressed, for the taotai had spared no pains this year in arranging that his staff, his retinue, and his banquet should be worthy of his post, and that he should not be eclipsed on this occasion of international meeting. \n\nAfter the unsatisfactory relations which had existed at Tengyuch during the past year, the first meeting was anticipated with some interest, and the taotai lost no time in endeavouring to establish a better understanding, for he at once offered a full and frank apology for his previous behaviour. He was unfailingly courteous throughout our stay at Namkham, meeting us practically every day either at public or private discussions or at those social functions which form part of the usual programme, and he interested himself in all that was passing, showing the greatest keenness to behave in a manner which was correct. \n\nThe different courts were constituted as usual, and the junior Chinese officers met their British colleagues on satisfactory terms, a heavy roll of cases being settled during the three weeks' conference, which involved long and unbroken sittings, and must have proved very trying for Mr. Rae and Mr. Kiernander, who were constantly in court. When it is remembered that the British and Chinese officers on the bench have not only to convince themselves and one another of the desirability of certain settlements through the medium of interpreters, but that the British officers must marshal their witnesses and sift their evidence in the dozen different languages of the frontier tribes, it will be realised that the settlement of a long case-roll in the mixed courts of the frontier is no easy matter, and calls for an endless patience and unflagging persistency of purpose. Our officers are sometimes discouraged at the fact that their Chinese colleagues have so little perception of abstract justice, and that they find difficulty in resisting a temptation to bargain over the settlements when monetary compensations are awarded by the court. Such bargaining is, I think, inevitable to the mind of the Chinese magistrate, and when it is remembered that the awards come first of all from his own pocket, and that he is dependent on the recovery of his outlay from numerous other officials and loosely-held tribal villages—a process requiring another long and enduring struggle—these shortcomings may perhaps be charitably forgotten. Judging by their results, it is evident that relations were entirely satisfactory, for their settlements were excellent, and they parted the best of friends. \n\nIn the appellate court, the taotai sat with Mr. Thornton or Mr. Cabell and myself, and we realised at an early date that he was not prepared to do business. I am inclined to think that he had tied his own hands; that he had boasted to the Viceroy that he would show a bold face to the British at the frontier; and that he found himself bound to justify his promises, but placed in consequence in a foolish and undignified position from which he would gladly have retired had it been possible for him to do so without loss of prestige with the authorities at Yunnan-fu. The fact remains that he refused to settle any case which came before him, and by so doing, he cut at the root of the joint court and compensation system which had been accepted formally by China as our basis of procedure at last year's meeting. \n\nIn the settlement of frontier cases, old-established custom, reduced to writing in the frontier agreement of 1910 (attached to my last frontier report), has decided that trans-frontier thefts, bodily injuries, and murders shall be paid for on a fixed scale of compensation by the offending country, in addition to the arrest and punishment of the offender, and that the compensation account shall be balanced and settled before the representatives of Burmah and Yunnan leave the meeting. It not infrequently happens that we have to pay more than China, but we never quibble over a case which has been proved. \n\nThis year, however, the taotai set custom and agreement at defiance. There were five murder cases before him—murders of British subjects by people whom we claimed to be Chinese. I had brought the cases to his attention again and again during the year, asking him to make some attempt to arrest the culprits; but his only replies had been either that the murdered men were Chinese subjects or that the murderers were British, and as he offered no reasons for his statements and frequently worded them in unfriendly and discourteous terms, there remained no alternative but to await the results of the frontier meeting. The cases came up in due course to the appellate court, and the British evidence was produced—in each case full, satisfactory, and to us entirely convincing. The natural course would have been for the taotai to produce any counter-evidence, but he made no attempt to do this, nor did he produce the offenders or witnesses who could rebut the evidence in any way. We therefore claimed compensation on the fixed scale, which he flatly refused. The cases had been through all the stages of the frontier courts, and there seemed no hope of settlement. The object of the frontier meetings is to replace those old blood feuds, in which the Kachins settle such matters amongst themselves, by properly organised courts and by settlements which would be enforced if necessary. The result of the meetings and of this procedure has been a steady decrease of lawlessness along the frontier, to the benefit of both nations concerned; but, earnestly as we tried to persuade him to better counsels, the taotai appeared determined to set all precedent at defiance, and thus to undo the effect of many years of steady work and mutual co-operation. This was the situation in regard to case work on the last day of the meeting. \n\n## Trans-frontier Cultivations \n\nThere remained another matter of importance—the question of trans-frontier cultivations. This subject has been discussed and dealt with perfunctorily for several years past, but it was surrounded with difficulties, and it was not until the last twelve months that our information was sufficiently full to render a settlement possible. I have had the honour to address you on several occasions in regard to this question, but it may be well to recapitulate the position briefly in view of the settlement which has now been effected. \n\nIn delimiting the middle section of the Burmah-China frontier, it was found by the commissioners that the acceptance of their line, which frequently followed a zigzag course between paddy fields and irrigation dykes, would occasionally have the result of placing a village on one side of the border whilst the whole or part of the lands worked by the villagers would belong to the other side. They therefore made specific arrangements in the joint \"Description of the Boundary\" safeguarding the rights of the villagers in such cases to their original cultivation rights over the land in question. This was the commencement of the trans-frontier cultivation. As time went on, however, the original claims became considerably extended, for the farmers on the China side—mainly inhabitants of the Shan States—found that they could escape from the exactions and oppression of their own sawbwas by removing their homes to Burmah while continuing to cultivate their original fields in China. On the strength of the fact that they became subjects of Burmah by frontier custom of domicile, they now refused to pay taxes for their land to the Chinese suwbwas, and from this fact has arisen the matter in dispute. \n\nFor the past three or four years, the Yunnanese authorities have shown an active interest in the question. They have found that in the worst administered of the States—notably in Lungchuan and Mengmao—a great number of Chinese cultivators have moved their domicile to Burmah, and thus avoided payment of all taxes to China, with the result that the revenues of the Shan sawbwas in question have been considerably affected; the sawbwas themselves reported that their subjects are crossing to Burmah and \"taking their fields with them,\" thus touching the Chinese on their most sensitive spot, the possible alienation of Chinese territory. \n\nPage 436",

He is a man of considerable courage, of boundless ambition, and of a direct and definite mind, and all of these qualities are of sterling worth at this remote frontier post. I am informed on good authority that his attitude towards internal affairs has shown a marked change since his return from the frontier, and that his actions have been marked by a thoughtfulness and moderation which were previously unknown.\n\nThe sub-prefect (\"ting\") of Tengyueh, Wen Liang-yi, speaks English and has never been actively objectionable, though he is hopelessly weak, and has been used to do all the unpleasant internal work of the post in a great money-raising campaign which was organised by the taotai to serve his own ends at Yunnan-fu. The ting has now become the scapegoat of the occasion, and is likely to be removed from office in the near future. The circumstances are so curious and throw so interesting a light upon the internal working of Chinese affairs that they are worthy of passing mention. Throughout last year, irregular \"squeezes\" were rampant in the city; respectable citizens were imprisoned and tortured until their generosity was moved to the required point; family affairs were made the subject of official action, with an inevitable financial ending; and public feeling eventually ran so high that scurrilous placards proclaimed the shortcomings of the ting on the walls and gates of the city. It was felt that the taotai should have enquired into the abuses thus so publicly denounced, and his failure to do so caused a volley of placards and pamphlets associating his name with that of his subordinate as a dog and an enemy of the common people. It was then hoped and believed that the Viceroy could not fail to take action and to order some enquiry, but when Yunnan-fu made no sign and no redress was forthcoming, they proceeded to take the law into their own hands. Some five days ago, eight criminals, two of whom had been condemned to death, quietly and effectually vanished from the prison of the ting's yamên, leaving behind them their handcuffs and shackles, and in one case even the prison-grown hair from a quickly shaven tonsure. The circumstances of their escape all indicated an organised and widespread assistance from influential sources, whilst the gentry and merchants ostentatiously withheld both sympathy and offers of help. Such an incident appears to be among the most serious offences of Chinese officialdom, and no one doubts that the ting will now be removed from office, and may even lose his rank—a disaster of the most cruel kind to a man of little substance. It is impossible to feel no sympathy for the unhappy man, who has grown shrivelled and old in the course of a few desperate days and sleepless nights; but his removal will be a blessing to the city and a lesson to his successors, whilst there remains a realisation that the Chinese are surely avenged when their officials stray beyond the recognised limits in finance or administration.\n\nThe frontier deputy, Chan Kai-hsuan, is an official of the best type. I attribute the present favourable turn of events largely to his sensible and capable management, whilst I believe that his confidence was won and his friendship ensured by the British officers at the Sima frontier meetings, at which he has twice presided as the Viceroy's representative. My only regret is that he will probably leave his poorly paid post at the earliest opportunity, for it is evident that he has gained the Viceroy's ear and that the taotai decides nothing without his concurrence. It is likely, therefore, that we shall lose him from the frontier in the 3rd moon, when the expiration of family mourning will make it possible for him to accept a territorial post.\n\nKuang Kuei-yuan, a Cantonese, has just been appointed to the post of assistant frontier deputy. He has served in several posts as magistrate and holds rank as an expectant taotai, so that his status is entirely satisfactory and his appointment very gratifying after the trouble which was caused by his predecessor. He took little part in the actual work of the frontier meeting, confining himself chiefly to watching Mr. Chao—a very admirable training. He seemed a pleasant man, however, and he succeeded in establishing very cordial relations with his British colleagues, though his knowledge of English was confined to one word.\n\n## Consulate Writer\n\nIn dealing with the Chinese personalities of the frontier, I feel that a tribute is due to the consulate writer, Han Wei-tsu, a man of official rank and good standing in Tengyueh, who has stood by the consulate in difficult times. He was engaged by the late Mr. Litton and has seen much interesting service, including the conclusion of the Thibetan negotiations, during which he acted as writer to Mr. Wilton in India. In the work of the past year, he has been of the greatest assistance, and has never failed to keep me in touch with every move of the Chinese; his information has always been prompt and I have never found it to be at fault. His activity during these contentious times has naturally brought him under the suspicion of the Chinese, who have done their best to embarrass him; but I hope that he will be supported by the consulate and that his services will eventually meet with some suitable reward. During the recent improvement in relations, both the taotai and the frontier deputy have expressed their gratitude for his assistance, and there can be no doubt of the value of an intelligent and experienced Chinese as a member of the staff in a situation such as that through which we have recently passed.\n\n## Value of Frontier Meetings\n\nBefore leaving the question of the frontier meetings, I would emphasise the value of these functions, not only in their bearing on the relations between our frontier officers and those of China, but also in their effect on the British officers who find in them an opportunity for an exchange of ideas on common questions and common difficulties, and a conception of the broad issues which affect alike each section of the border in its relations with its Chinese neighbours. Meetings have now been held for some fifteen years, but, until the past three years, no responsible representative has attended on behalf of the Yunnan Government. The presence of the Tengyueh Taotai, who controls the Western Marches, has been a decided step in advance and has resulted in the formulation of definite principles for the settlement of frontier disputes, whilst the formal gathering of the Burmah and Yunnan officials at an international function, supported on each side by a strong escort, has been an object-lesson to the frontier tribesmen that the two Governments are determined to work together in the suppression of frontier lawlessness and to supersede the old blood-feuds by proper punishments which can be and will be enforced in case of need. The proof of their value has been found in the striking decrease of serious charges, and the practical absence of those armed raids which, until recent years, formed so grave a factor in our frontier politics. In the course of the three years under the new system, it has been our misfortune to undertake the conversion of three separate taotais, each of whom has seen and realised the practical reality of British force on the frontier and has returned to his post a more reasonable frontier official, only to be replaced by a new representative with whom the process must be commenced all over again, and for this reason, I am anxious that the Taotai Keng should, if possible, receive the substantive post at Tengyueh and remain for several years. The courtesy, the patience, and the real desire for just and conciliatory settlements shown by our officers has, undoubtedly, had its effect, and I am convinced that the Chinese have genuine regard for the Burmah officers now on the frontier whom they have learned to know and respect. This year, I fear that there must be changes in the British representatives, Mr. Cabell having already left his frontier post, but, inevitable as such changes must be, they are a very real loss, for border conditions are so unusual and so strange, and frontier affairs are, for the moment, inclined to move so quickly that a ripe experience is of inestimable value. Mr. Thornton and Mr. Hertz especially are now real authorities on all affairs connected with the border, and their experience and the certainty of the view which they will take up in regard to international cases and questions has a very definite bearing on and a very real value in every question which concerns the Chinese. The efforts of our military officers, too, in arranging the spectacle and the solid military backing of the frontier meetings has constantly impressed the Chinese, and has certainly had its effect in reversing the unsatisfactory relations of the past year, whilst creating among the Chinese military officers not only a solid respect, but a feeling in some cases of real comradeship and genuine regard, which has helped me very much in arranging matters at Tengyueh.\n\nFor the British officers themselves, I hope, and believe, that the meetings are of real value. The consul is the only British officer stationed on the China side of the frontier, as he is the only one who has an opportunity of seeing the attitude and activity of the Chinese along all sections of the frontier and of meeting all the Burmah officers and endeavouring to realise the trend of Chinese affairs in its bearing on the interests of the frontier as a whole. After the entire isolation of Tengyueh, the annual meetings and the opportunity of hearing the views of his Burmah colleagues are an immense stimulus to his work, enabling him to gather what is needed in the interests of Burmah and in what direction his activity can most usefully be directed in the work of the coming year. After an experience of the frontier meetings of three years...\n\nPage 439",

KELLY,\n\nA Eulogistic Address.\n\nYesterday afternoon, the Board of Directors of the Tung Wah Hospital, presented Dr. Kelly, who is shortly to leave the Colony to take up an appointment at the Medical College, Colombo, with a silver tea service in recognition of his service at the aforementioned institution. Some fifty persons were present, including Mrs. Kelly, and the whole of the directors.\n\nMr. Chan Kai-ming (Chairman) making the presentation said:-\n\nDr. Kelly,--I am requested by the directors of this hospital to perform this very pleasing duty of presenting you, on the occasion of your departure from this Colony through promotion in Ceylon, with this silver tea set. It has no intrinsic value, but the directors of the hospital could not allow you to depart from this Colony without showing in some tangible form the high esteem and regard they held for you through the good work you have done during the period you have been connected with this hospital. And, sir, Tung Wah, with three successive Boards of Directors, of which I am the Chairman for this year, can testify consciously to your untiring efforts to assist in furthering the usefulness of this hospital. It is due to your suggestion and advice that the new Operating Theatre has been brought up to its present high standard of efficiency. We are sorry to lose you, and we hope that your future career will be crowned with great success. We now beg of you to accept this small present from us as a souvenir of the happy moments you have spent with us. In bidding you and Mrs. Kelly \"au bon voyage\" we all wish that you will both enjoy the best of health in your new sphere of labour. (Cheers.)\n\nDr. Kelly's Reply.\n\nDr. Kelly in responding said that he was very grateful to the directors for their very kind appreciation of his services. It had always given him great pleasure to attend that hospital in his professional capacity, and he was really sorry he was leaving them. (Applause.)\n\nThe party afterwards sat down to tea, and a very interesting little ceremony was brought to a close.\n\nCO 12945\n\nFiled 15 APR 12\n\nPage 184",

But that if the Governor-General happened to be in Hongkong and wished to call upon me I would not refuse to see him.\n\n14. Next day His Majesty's Consul-General at Canton came at my invitation to stay with me for the night in order that I might learn from him what his view of the situation at Canton is. Mr. J. V. Jamieson told me that he had no confidence whatever in the Governor-General who was without experience of administration and apparently of no capacity. When I related to him the conversation I had had with Sir Kai Ho Kai and Mr. Wei Yuk he expressed the opinion that with a Hon-man at its head the present administration was not worth bolstering up.\n\nGiven a strong Governor-General with some previous training in administration he would support an application for the assistance indicated.\n\n14.15 Mr. Jamieson expressed the opinion that although Chan Kwing-ming and Lung Chai-kwong might transfer their allegiance to a new aspirant for the reins of Government at Canton, they could control the populace and keep order. I confess that I take a less hopeful view of the possible result of a movement to upset the existing Government. The situation is really dominated by the financial difficulty and if funds are no longer available, by whomsoever the taxes are levied, to pay the troops in something better than depreciated paper, the soldiers may endeavour to set up a Government of their own. The result might be much worse than the existing unsatisfactory condition and with a Cantonese mob in the ascendency it is impossible to forecast what extravagances it might not commit. It is possible that a conflict with the existing authorities might result in one side or the other adopting anti-foreign measures in order to provoke foreign interference if only for the discomfiture of its victorious",

Wu, as I have already reported, came to reside here in June after he had been removed from his office. The leading member of the Kwo Min Tang referred to in my telegram is Mr. Chan Chik-yue, who was born in Honolulu and resides generally in Macao. He is a brother of Mr. Chan Kang-yue, Compradore of Messrs. Douglas Lapraik and Company in this Colony, who is likewise a leading member of the Kwo Min Tang. Mr. Chan Chik-yue took a prominent part in the first revolution and enjoys the unenviable notoriety of being the originator of the scheme to finance the Kwangtung Province by means of an unsecured note issue.\n\nI have information from a trustworthy source that Chan Chik-yue attended a meeting of officials at Canton at which the Acting Governor-General was present and at which it was decided to declare independence of President Yuan Shih-kai.\n\nI consider, and my Executive Council agree with me,\n\nThe Right Honourable  \nLEWIS HARCOURT, K.P.,  \n&c.,  \n&c.,  \n&c.",

Colonial Secretary.\n\n**C.O. 405/36276**\n**REC? 220 001 13**\n\nI forward some notes concerning the late Mr. Chan King Wah. By his death, I have lost a friend, and the Hongkong Government an official who has never failed to grant assistance in putting down crime and maintaining good order in Hongkong and Kwang-tung.\n\nOn July 19th, Chan Kwing Ming proclaimed Independence. On July 22nd, Mr. Chan King Wah wrote me a letter, stating that all the animosity was directed against Yuan Shi Kwai for his unconstitutional acts, and hoping that the two police forces would continue to act together. After speaking to His Excellency Sir Henry Kay, I wrote him a letter, regretting that he was getting mixed up in a revolution, informing him that the southerners had not a ghost of a chance against the forces of Yuan Shi Kai, and advising him to keep a strict neutrality, avoid politics, and keep order. He seems to have taken this line and told me he was confining his labour to catching thieves.\n\nOn July 26th, I received a letter from him complaining of unfair newspaper criticism. Wong Sze Loong comes down to Hongkong to report on the Canton Rebellion, and makes arrangement for the cancellation of Independence. On August 10th, at the request of Mr. Chan King Wah, I went to visit him at Canton. He informed me that things were not really as quiet as they appeared to be, that everything depended on the immediate arrival at Canton of Lung Tsai Kwong, as Tong Sze Lung was trying to get himself made Governor-General. Mr. Chan was sending urgent messages to General Lung.\n\nOn August 11th, Lung Tsai Kwong arrived at Canton, and during the subsequent fighting between the Luk Kwan and the Tsai Kwan, Mr. Chan King Wah kept order in the City and suburbs. Several points of difference between Chan King Wah and General Lung were reported to me by Mr. Chan, namely giving a post to Kwan Yan Po and allowing Ng Pei Tai to give himself up.",

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.

I am quite responsible for all the office.\n\nThere might have been notes of payment on other files between January and April; but I didn't observe them.\n\nIf there were such notes I did not examine the files with such care as to observe them.

        "content_text": "Extract from the H.K. Daily Press of 23rd July, 1914, Page 9\n\n236 LATE SIR KAI HO KAI\n\nAT THE HAPPY VALLEY.\n\nThe funeral of the late Sir Kai Ho Kai, M.D., took place at the Protestant Cemetery, Happy Valley, last evening, and was a manifestation of sincere sympathy. A very large number of European and Chinese residents assembled to pay their last tribute, and these formed in procession behind the mourners.\n\nAt the grave there were over twenty pall-bearers, namely, Messrs. Li Yuk Tong, U Siu Yuen Fai, Yung Sing Kiu, Kwok Siu Lau, Mok Kam Cheung, Li Po Kwai, Ng Kwok Hing, Tam Pak Siu, Chan Kang U, Yung Sai Ngan, Chan Han, P. K. Kwok, Leung Hing Kwai, Cheung Sum Woo, Chan Chen Fan, Lam Heung Sun, Kam Tie Hing, Fung Pak Hung, and Leung Heung Tin, and Drs. Thomas, Jew Hawk, Au Shi Cham, and Kwan Sui Yin.\n\nThe Rev. T. W. Pearce, of the London Missionary Society, who was a great personal friend of the deceased, and was associated with him in many of his philanthropic, charitable and educational works, conducted the service in the small Church at the Cemetery, and also officiated at the graveside.\n\nThere were over 300 wreaths, sent by all sections of the community. Among them were tributes from H.E. Sir Henry May, the Order of the K.C.M.G., the Hongkong Legislative Council, Tung Wah Hospital, Po Leung Kuk, District Watchmen's Committee, Chinese Club, Hongkong Chamber of Commerce, Chinese Chamber of Commerce, China Merchants Steam Navigation Co., Chinese Y.M.C.A., St. Stephen's College, St. Paul's College, Alice Memorial and Nethersole Hospitals.\n\nMany telegrams from various parts of China, and letters from prominent residents in the Colony have been received by Lady Ho Kai, expressing sympathy.\n\nAmong those present at the graveside were H.E. Sir Henry May (Governor), Sir Paul Chater, C.M.G., Hon. Mr. Wei Yuk, C.M.G., Hon. Mr. A. F. Churchill, Hon. Mr. C. McIntosh (Captain Superintendent of Police), Hon. Mr. H. E. Pollock, K.C., Hon. Mr. Hewett, C.M.G., and Hon. Mr. Lau Tak Fak. Members of the Bench and Bar, including Hon. Mr. H. H. J. Gompertz (Chief Justice), Mr. Justice Hazeland (Puisne Judge), Mr. J. H. Kemp (Attorney-General), Mr. J. R. Wood (First Magistrate), Messrs. J. F. Sharp, K.C., Eldon Potter, Easter, and F. C. Jenkin; Lieut. Barnett, Dr. Voretszch (General Officer Commanding), members of the Hongkong University, Dr. Francis Clark, Kerr, Messrs. T. K. Dealy, R. O. P. Borrow, D. W. Tratman, Lee Jones, King, T. F. Claxton, and A. P. Professor Digby and Mr. A. C. H. Smith (representing Hongkong University), Capt. Mears, W. L. Pattenden, J. Rodger, Grist, H. K. Woo (representing Mr. Hall Brutton's office), A. H. Vaughan, and Miss Rayner (Matron, Maternity Hospital).\n\nNearly all the leading Chinese were either present in person or were represented, together with the Directorates of the Tung Wah Hospital, the Po Leung Kuk, and the District Watchmen's Committee. Several district watchmen attended in uniform.\n\nA large number of students from the University and St. Stephen's College were also present.\n\nTRIBUTES FROM THE BAR AND BENCH.\n\nAt the Supreme Court yesterday, a striking tribute was paid to the esteem in which the deceased Knight was held by the Bench and Bar.\n\nThe Hon. Mr. H. E. Pollock, K.C., said:—My Lords, I hope I may be permitted, as senior member of the Bar, and speaking on behalf of both branches of the legal profession, to add a few words to those which have just fallen from the learned Attorney-General.\n\nThe late Sir Kai Ho Kai, for many years, both directly and indirectly, influenced the statute law which your Lordships and the Courts of this Colony administer. For several years he was a member of the Hongkong Bar. The fact of that membership is the occasion of my addressing you now, and my object in doing so is to express, on behalf of the members of the Bar and the officers of the legal departments of this Colonial Service, their deep regret and grief at his death.\n\nWhen I first arrived in the Colony in 1888, Sir Kai Ho Kai was still actively engaged in the profession of a barrister, and I can well remember the keenness and activity and ability which he displayed in the conduct of the various cases in which he was engaged.\n\nOf late years he has seldom appeared in the Courts, but confined his energies almost entirely to matters of public interest in the Colony. For several years upon the Legislative Council, I can bear witness to the patience and diligence which he brought to bear upon the study of the various measures brought forward by the Government from time to time with a view to amendment and improvement.\n\nHis record of services rendered in the Colony, covering so many fields of varied public interests, is one of which any man might well be proud, and it is only fitting that we should testify on this occasion to the fact that he devoted the best of his strength during the best years of his life to the promotion of measures for the public interest and for the public welfare of the Colony.\n\nThe Hon. Attorney-General said:—The occasion of this sitting of the Court is one that we might have hoped would be long deferred, for in the ordinary course of things Sir Kai Ho Kai might well have looked forward to many more years of life and usefulness.\n\nThe Chief Justice:-We are gathered together to-day to do honour to the memory of a distinguished member of our profession. After an academic career of the most brilliant promise, he was admitted to the Bar of this Colony in 1882, and had he desired he would undoubtedly have attained to the highest eminence in the career he had chosen.\n\nBut the history of our profession abounds with instances of the disinterestedness of its sons. Sir Kai Ho Kai felt that the world had claims upon him, and he devoted himself with an admirable single-mindedness to the services of his fellow men.\n\nHis labours on behalf of this Colony, the land of his adoption, were recognised by His Majesty the King, who conferred upon him not only the Most Distinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George, but also the dignity of Knighthood.\n\nHe worked for many years for the regeneration of his native land, and those responsible for the destinies of China have freely availed themselves of his sagacious and broad-minded counsel, and his eminent moderation and common-sense.\n\nPage 237",

I have no reason to doubt the accuracy of the report. It is evident that for the present and until some of the late Sir Kai's sons can earn a good living the family must live on the charity of their relations and friends. Unfortunately the eldest son who is married to the daughter of Dr. Au Chak-man (alias Au Tak), a fairly well-to-do furniture dealer, is of weak intellect and of little assistance to the family. Fortunately Dr. Tu Ting-fong formerly Chinese Minister at Washington and father-in-law of Sir Kai's second daughter, is well off and will no doubt assist in maintaining the widow and large family of the deceased.\n\nIn view of Sir Kai Ho Kai's long and extremely useful service on the Legislative Council of the Colony and of the valuable services he rendered to this Government from time to time, I desire, with the unanimous concurrence of the Executive Council, to recommend that this Government undertake the education of the 3rd, 4th and 5th sons at the Hongkong University until they take their degrees, subject always to the report of the Vice-Chancellor that they are not wasting their time and are making good progress in their studies; and\n\n2.\n\nTHE RIGHT HONOURABLE\n\nLEWIS HARCOURT, M.P.,\n\n&c., &c., &c.\n\nPage 271",

So far as Sir Kai is concerned the question of salary is now gone and the benefit remaining for his family, if the scheme should materialise, will be the free share and the piece of land. But even if the scheme should become successful it would take at least two years before any result could be obtained, and, in the meantime, the question of how the family will be supported and the children educated becomes very serious. For the next few months, however, Sir Kai's family will be supported by the fund which was subscribed immediately after his death by Messrs. Au Tack, Cheung Sun Too, Chan Kang Yue and S.W.Tso who each contributed a sum of $750 for funeral and other immediate expenses. After this fund is exhausted I am afraid there will be very hard time in store for the family.\n\nAs to the house No.45B Robinson Road in which Sir Kai resided it was bought for $22,500, of which sum $10,000 belong to Madam Wu Ting Fang and $12,500 to Mr. Au Tack. No rent had been demanded from Sir Kai during his life time, and steps are being taken to ascertain whether Madam Wu will take up the whole house and allow Sir Kai's family to continue to reside there.\n\nThe above are the facts I have gathered, but before concluding this letter I feel I ought to make clear a certain remark addressed to me at Sir Kai's funeral, that is, that \"Sir Kai had money but lost it all through the Revolution in China\". First, Sir Kai never had at any time money to lose on anything as the facts above stated point to its impossibility. Secondly Sir Kai had, in all his life, been in favour of Reformation and not Revolution in China. His writings and publications testify to his principles. He gave his advice for the better government of China to anyone, whether a Manchurian Official or a Reformer or a Revolutionist, who approached him on the subject, but never received a cent from any one of them as fees, retainers, or otherwise, or derived any benefit directly or indirectly to himself or his family whatsoever.

At present the death penalty which is being inflicted on opium growers does not seem to have any legal sanction, but the civil Governor has just stated that this is to be remedied shortly, and that death will be the statutory punishment for opium cultivators.\n\nIn conclusion, I wish to record my appreciation of the unfailing courtesy and assistance of my two colleagues, and of the efforts of the Provincial Government, whose guest I was, and who did their utmost to make my journey as pleasant as possible.

Sir,\n\nI have, &c.\n\nA. D. BLACKBURN.\n\n## Enclosure 2 in No. 1.\n\n**Consul Little to Sir J. Jordan.**\n\nAmoy, April 2, 1914.\n\nI HAVE the honour to forward herewith, with reference to your telegram No. 1 of the 27th January, a report by Mr. W. P. W. Turner on a journey of investigation into the cultivation of the opium poppy in South Fukien.\n\n## Enclosure 3 in No. 1.\n\nI have, &c.\n\nH. A. LITTLE.\n\n**Report on a Journey of Investigation into the Cultivation of the Opium Poppy in South Fukien, jointly with Officials appointed by the Chinese Government, by Mr. Turner.**\n\nTHE delegates selected by the Central and Provincial Governments respectively were Mr. Sou Gee Chuang, an official of the Board of the Interior, and Mr. Chan Pai Kong, Taotai of Foochow and President of the Anti-Opium Bureau of Fukien. Mr. E. Cheers, of the Straits Settlement Police Service, acted as interpreter in the Amoy dialect, which is current in all the districts visited except Hing Hua, Sien Yu, and Hok Ching, south of Foochow.\n\nA rough map is attached showing the route taken, which embraced all the former principal poppy-growing centres of South Fukien. The distance covered was approximately 1,600 li, or 530 English miles, the journey occupying twenty-five days—from the 23rd February to the 19th March. In all, seventeen districts were examined out of a total of thirty-two comprised in the lower portion of the province.\n\nIn the first district visited, that of Hai Teng, the vigorous measures taken in the autumn by the local authorities checked extensive sowing, though a certain amount was discovered by the opium inspector in January and uprooted. In the spring of 1913 Captain Connelly, of the Hong Kong garrison, whilst on a shooting expedition, found large areas under poppy cultivation in the vicinity of Chhe Nia and the authorities taking no apparent action, but a local convert of Kang Boe, a neighbouring village, informed me that this region is now quite free. From reports of native pastors I also learned that no poppy now existed in the broad belt of coast land south of Amoy and Hai Teng. (I have since heard from a missionary that he travelled through the whole of this country at the beginning of March without finding a trace of poppy.)\n\nForeigners who had recently made the journey from Changpu to Amoy having reported that the main route via U Sai had been cleared of poppy, I chose the northern road from Hai Teng, which branches off due west at Peh Chui Ying, turning south again at Koan Jim through the Tng Kio and Kio Li. As far as could be judged, this part of the country was now almost entirely given up to rice cultivation, the Nan Ch'i River and its tributaries affording an abundant water supply. Between Tng Kio, where we were met by a military officer in charge of 700 soldiers sent to uproot the poppy, and Changpu several fields where opium had been pulled up were passed, these being readily distinguished from the fact that, having been confiscated, they were now overgrown with weeds. Last spring this region was one of the chief poppy-growing centres of the district. As far as I could gather the soldiers arrived in December, meeting with no little resistance before the plant was eventually all destroyed.\n\nThe Changpu authorities appear to have counterbalanced their indifference of last spring, when there was extended cultivation throughout the district, by extreme severity in the autumn. Mr. Watson, of the English Presbyterian Mission at Changpu, told me that he was prepared to state positively that not a plant remained in the whole country between Changpu and Hai Teng, with the possible exception of a small patch hidden in a secluded valley near Toa Pu, of which he had heard many vague rumours. Mr. Watson's opinions were based partly on the declarations of the native pastors of his district at a recent conference at O Sai, and partly on personal observation during his periodical visits to native mission stations.\n\nFrom Changpu to Yunsiao the road lies for some 8 or 9 miles over a broad, sandy, barren plain up to a range of hills some 1,200 feet high, crossed by a low pass, with a fertile valley producing rice, sugar-cane, barley, and beans on the other side. From Pan To Hsu to Yunsiao the country is too hilly to suit the poppy, which requires the rich soil of the plains and a sheltered situation to thrive to perfection, and the task of the local authorities has accordingly been comparatively light. I learned that the district opium inspector had conducted a very strict examination in October and November last, whilst the magistrate himself informed me that of the thirty days he had been in office twenty had been spent in scouring the country for any heads that might have eluded the observation of the inspector and his staff. Native reports confirmed the magistrate's assurance that no poppy was now left in the district.\n\nAt Chao An I called on Father David de Miguel of the Roman Catholic Mission, who informed me that it was possible that a small quantity of poppy might still remain in the second \"tu\" or division of the magistracy, though the magistrate had a few weeks previously, on hearing of the tour of inspection, made a journey in person through this region and had a thorough uprooting. He was unable to say for certain if all had been removed, but assured me that the rest of the district was free, the people having been thoroughly scared by the arrival of the northern soldiers. The present magistrate, Mr. Chang Tseng Pa, has held office for six months. His predecessor took no steps to put a stop to the cultivation of the poppy, for which and for general maladministration he was eventually arrested and sent to Foochow for trial. Mr. Chang, on the other hand, has the reputation of being a very keen suppressionist and an able official; at the beginning of his campaign he was placed in a difficulty by the opposition of the gentry, of whom a few leading members were financially interested in the cultivation of the drug, and were supporting the farmers in resisting the authorities. Mr. Chang promptly arrested two of the most influential, and has since had the support of the remainder. He told me that barley and tobacco were largely replacing the former opium crops. This applies in fact to the whole of the country west of Changchow, the large areas under tobacco, the leaf of which is, however, of an inferior quality, being particularly noticeable.\n\nThe country between Chao An and Ping Ho, on the borders of Kuangtung province, is little frequented by foreigners, and no reports had been received regarding the opium measures in force there. Consequently, although this part of the province has never had the reputation of being a large opium-producing centre, I was anxious to discover whether as clean a sweep had been made as in those districts nearer to the control of the high provincial authorities. Practically the whole of the 60 miles between Chao An and Ping Ho is mountainous, but the hill slopes are mostly under terrace cultivation and the valleys rich with a vast variety of native crops, rice, barley, sugar-cane, and sweet potatoes being the staple products.\n\nAfter leaving Chao An we passed through the second \"tu\" of the district, where I had been informed there was a possibility of finding poppy, but I discovered neither traces of it nor signs of recently disturbed fields. This is probably explained by the fact that in practice confiscated land is frequently sold back to the village or clan to which it belonged, the penalty for growing the forbidden plant being thus a double fine. As regards the Ping Ho district, little pressure was required to induce the farmers to abandon cultivation, and it had not been found necessary to call for troops.\n\nAt Sio Khe a local missionary informed me that suppression measures had been most severe, and that, so far as the strict enquiries he had made went, the district was quite free from poppy. A native pastor had, however, informed him that a small patch...",

I was unable to ascertain the exact locality of the field, native converts being often unwilling to afford information likely in any way to bring upon themselves the hostility of the villagers.\n\nFrom native sources at Lam Ching I learned that young poppy had been freely uprooted in December, the owner of one field being fined 800 dollars. A reward of 100 dollars was, however, offered for information of any poppy still growing instead of the usual percentage of the fine imposed. On the whole, the autumn sowing had not been excessive. Here, as elsewhere, all sorts of rumours with regard to the inspection of the province were current, the country people firmly believing that if any opium were discovered, both the grower and the district magistrate would be shot and a fine of several hundred thousand dollars demanded by the British Government.\n\n## \nTowards Changchow, the soil is extremely rich; the rice grown in the Changchow prefecture is said to be the finest in China, whilst this district also supplies a large proportion of the fruit produce of South Fukien. On reaching the city, I called on Mr. Hutchinson, of the English Presbyterian Mission, who said he believed there was poppy in only one spot in the whole of his missionary district, extending north as far as Lung Nia and east almost to Tong An. His knowledge came from a friend of a Christian native doctor, but the information was given to him under promise not to disclose the locality, the informer being unwilling for some reason to involve the Lung Ch'i magistrate in trouble. According to Mr. Hutchinson, the latter was well aware of the existence of the field, which contained about 1,000 heads of poppy.\n\nThe anti-opium campaign in the Lung Ch'i district appears to have been accompanied by many abuses, of which Mr. Hutchinson gave me several instances. On one occasion, a gambler having been observed by underlings of the opium inspector to have won 80 dollars at play, three or four pellets of opium were furtively placed in his pocket, and he was subsequently taxed with being a smoker. On denying the charge, he was searched and forced to hand over his 80 dollars as hush-money. In another case, a heavy bribe had been exacted by the inspector from a wealthy shopkeeper on whose premises two pipes were found, these having been placed in a back room by the inspector's men whilst the proprietor's attention was engaged by confederates. There seems good ground for crediting these stories, since Mr. Chan Pai Kong himself informed me that the inspector had been discovered placing poppy plants in the fields of innocent persons with a view to extorting squeezes, and that he had offered his office for sale for 2,000 dollars. These reports also I had previously heard from other sources. Mr. Chan's secretary told me that the inspector, and also the former Chao An inspector, who had been guilty of similar malpractices, would be sent to Foochow and probably executed. The Opium Administration has been further discredited by these abuses, from the fact that in some districts, private persons posing as official inspectors have been imitating their illegalities.\n\nMr. Hutchinson was of the opinion that the Lung Ch'i magistrate was also a party to these frauds, and stated that the extortions of the opium officials were infinitely worse than the exactions of the Manchu régime, and that native prepared opium was plentiful at Changchow, the authorities having perfect cognisance of its whereabouts, and exacting a heavy duty on all sold or kept for sale. As the spring crop was gathered without interference, there are probably considerable accumulated stocks in hand, whilst there is no doubt that poppy seed, which is said to retain its efficacy for four years, is being carefully hoarded up against any future slackening of suppressive measures.\n\nThe poppy has, however, by fair means or otherwise, been completely eradicated from the district; I myself passed through Thih Tng, where the plant was being freely sown in the autumn, and saw none, whilst Mr. Hutchinson had recently visited Lim Tun Hi, where a powerful clan, taking advantage of a strong strategical position, had resisted the soldiers for some time with success, and found all the opium uprooted. This clan, which had been strong enough to refuse payment of land tax for 150 years, capitulated in December. In other parts, the villagers had mostly submitted to the inevitable on the first approach of the troops.\n\nAt Changt'ai, from all accounts, the magistrate, Mr. Sou Gee Chen, a brother of the metropolitan delegate, appears to have cleared his district thoroughly. I passed through the chief former opium-growing region, and found it now almost entirely under barley.\n\nFrom Changt'ai, I took a by-road through Be Iun and Pho Tan to Koan Khan, where no traces of a former large poppy-field were now visible. The aspect of the country here changes, the hills of the west giving way to a broad plain, across which a clear view of several miles is obtained on all sides. Between Koan Khau and Ch'uan Chow lies the largest poppy-producing district of Fukien, the yield of former years in the Tong An district, according to semi-official Chinese estimates, being 50 per cent. of that of the whole province.\n\n## \nThe zone of greatest activity lies immediately south of Tong An itself, particularly in the neighbourhood of Mahang. For this reason, Tong An has been allotted six and Mahang three opium inspectors instead of the usual one, whilst the latter's officer in charge, a gentleman of picturesque proportions in keeping with his strong attitude as a local administrator, has further been raised to the dignity of a \"chih shih,\" or magistrate.\n\nMissionaries at Tong An reported that in the immediate vicinity of the city, little or no poppy had been sown in the previous autumn, but farther afield, especially to the south, the soldiers had had a busy time clearing the country in January. They believed the whole district to be at present quite free. A lady who had made the opium movement a keen study informed me that, according to rough observations made by her, 50 per cent. of the cultivable land within a few miles' radius of the city was under poppy in 1912, but during frequent journeys this year, mostly off the main routes, she had not seen a single plant. Another lady, who had just returned from a visit to the Ankhoe district, had also seen no poppy growing. The country north of that city is mountainous and produces very little poppy, the plant when fully grown being only 8 or 10 inches high, and yielding little juice.\n\nAs the main road from Tong An to Ch'uan Chow was reported to be then free from poppy by a foreigner who made the journey in December last, I decided to strike across country from Ma Hang, dipping down south to Khoe Tang, on the sea border opposite to the large island of Kim Mng, and thence making Ch'uan Chow via An Hai and Chioh Sai. Between Tong An and Ma Hang, the country was literally a blaze of poppy last spring, but not a vestige was now to be seen. The magistrate at Ma Hang, which has long been notorious for its connection with the opium industry, informed me that little poppy had been sown in the autumn, attributing the fact to the people's intelligence in appreciating the arguments of his proclamations, but it is probable that his treatment of offenders, which consists, in the first place, in burning their houses, confiscating their lands, and fining them heavily, and, in the second place, in beheading them if they receive these correctives with ill grace, and the presence of several companies of northern troops in the district, have been more potent deterrents to growers. It is, however, remarkable that the abandonment of an industry which, according to the magistrate's estimate, was worth 2,000,000 dollars per annum to the people of Ma Hang alone should have provoked so little resistance, and it is probable that this district will require careful watching in the future.\n\nThe inspection in this part of the country has been carried out with great thoroughness. Large barley fields, whose extent of area might have concealed a few stalks, and patches of sugar cane have been carefully examined by the inspectors, whilst suspicious houses have been entered, even a few heads of poppy growing in earthenware pots in courtyards or on the house roofs being a sufficient source of profit to induce villagers to run the risks of detection. Here, as in most parts of South Fukien, barley appears to have largely taken the place of the poppy.\n\nBetween An Hai and Ch'uan Chow, an agreement was entered into last spring between the officials and the people, by which the latter were permitted to harvest the crop on giving an undertaking that no sowing should be made in the following season. This contract seems to have been faithfully carried out by both parties, for I heard of none having been planted in the autumn, whilst Ch'uan Chow missionaries informed me that in the course of up-country journeys at the new year, they had seen no sign of poppy. In the adjoining district of Lam An, however, where no such compromise was made, resistance to the authorities necessitated military measures, the plant being forcibly uprooted in December. From Chuan Chow, I made a day's excursion to Lam An and the neighbourhood without finding any trace of opium.\n\nOn arriving at Hui An, I found that the Anti-Opium Commissioner of Amoy, Mr. Ding Neng Guang, was then in the district scouring the country for poppy. In common with magistrates of other districts in the province, Mr. Shih Wei Ch'ung, the Hui An magistrate, when called upon for his report, had notified the Foochow head office that his district was free from the plant.\n\nThis appears to have been a deliberate misrepresentation of fact, since the district opium inspector had sent in to him at the end of last year a list of places (all in the Tau Pak region, north of Hui An), where he had found poppy still growing.\n\nPage 541",

His Excellency concluded by saying that he believed that the breakwater would add materially to the prosperity of the port. Junks and engaged in loading unloading steamers would be able to work a longer time when they could fly to the Refuge for protection in case of storms. He hoped the time would soon come when the prosperity of the port and the increase of the small craft would compel the construction of still another and yet larger refuge. (Loud applause.)\n\nislands and on the shores of the main land he had no more modern appliances than two steam crane barges. He had four barges with hand-cranes, and the rest of the plant consisted of the most ramshackle set of junks I have ever seen anywhere. (Laughter.) He bought them up in Canton, Macao, and elsewhere, like a very wise man, as cheaply as possible. The junks were fitted with derricks made of not very solid-looking timber, and fitted with ropes, which I have a strong suspicion, were bought at the auction at the Naval Yard when condemned to the public. (Laughter.) No one looking at the very primitive appliances that he has used would think that the work could possibly be done in the time and without accidents involving a very considerable loss of life. I have watched the work and watched the reports of accidents, and during the five years that this work has been under construction there has not been one single accident either to a junk, or of parting of a rope, or of the slipping of heavy stone. There was only one life lost during the whole of the period, and that was through an accident to an old woman, who was killed by a splinter of stone during blasting operations on one of the islands where stone was being collected. That is, I think, a wonderful record for a work of this magnitude.\" (Applause.)\n\nCheers were given at the call of His Excellency for Messrs. Jaffé and Duncan, and \"Efficient John Chinaman\" (the contractor).\n\nPRINCE OF WALES' FUND.\n\nSUBSCRIPTION LIST NO. 1.\n\nMr. and Mrs. G. L. Platt (December)\n\nMr. B. Swenson Police 4th Sub.)

J. Boland, $5; Mr. Percy K. Hazlitt, $10\n\nIt was very interesting to consider how these stones were handled, proceeded H.E. the Governor: The two steam crane barges were moved out to some of the islands or adjacent shores for the purpose of dealing with the heaviest stones only, 5-ton stones, of which there were many in this work. The cranes would lift as many of these 5-ton stones as were within their radius, and deposit them on to the junks, in which they were brought to Mongkoktsui, and lowered by the derricks of these junks into the water. When the 5-ton stones were not within reach of the crane, the junkmen would get hold of a long chain from the hand cranes, and the stone would be dragged down to the beach, fastened to the stern of a flat-bottomed sampan, and towed to a junk. The stone, of course, effectively weighed half its weight on land when suspended in the water, and this weight was counter-balanced by stones placed in the bow of the sampan.\n\nThey came to inscribe the legend on the stone, he (the Governor) considered they should have a Chinese inscription as well. It was suggested to him by H.M.'s Consul-General in Canton that the Civil Governor of the Province was an extremely erudite Chinese scholar. So he (the Governor) wrote to His Excellency Chang Ming Chi and asked him to write an inscription for this memorial stone. His Excellency undertook it with great good nature. The words are \"Kwong Lan Po Cheung,\" which mean \"A Bulwark against the raging waves.\" They might like to know where these words came from. The first two characters, \"Kwong Lan,\" mean \"raging waves,\" and are quoted from \"Holding back the raging waves that have rolled forward\" in the Tsun Hok Kai by Hon Yu (A.D. 788-824), of the Tong Dynasty. The other words, \"Po Cheung,\" mean \"bulwark,\" and are quoted from \"The City Shing is the bulwark of the clan of Mang\" in a record in \"Tao Chun\" of the events in the 13th year of Duke Ting of the Lo State (B.C. 50).

Treasurer.\n\nHongkong, 16th December, 1915,\n\nFUND TO BE CLOSED.\n\nAt a meeting of the Committee of the Prince of Wales' Fund, held at the Council Chamber Hongkong, on December 18th, it was decided on the motion of H.E. the Governor, who presided, to close the fund on December 31st.\n\nHIS EXCELLENCY said that he had called the members together to propose that the fund should be closed at the end of the month. When the war broke out it was anticipated that there would be a good deal of unemployment in the United Kingdom. That anticipation was realised for some time, but then a different set of circumstances supervened with the withdrawal of large numbers of men from the labour market and the large amount of work necessary for the Government, and instead of there being a shortage there was an excess of employment with a shortage of labour. That had continued, and out of the large amount subscribed to the Fund only a small sum had been expended in relief of distress. The remainder, over £500,000 sterling, had been invested and would be used at the conclusion of the war for the relief of distress which might supervene when the labour market would again become considerably disturbed, or for other reasons.\n\nIn the meantime it did not appear necessary that the fund should be added to by subscriptions from this Colony, at any rate, where many people had bound themselves to monthly subscriptions not thinking that the war would last so long, and being in many cases unable to afford those monthly subscriptions. There were other funds for various charitable purposes connected with the war, and there was also no doubt that presently they would be asked to subscribe to another national loan. Those two objects, the charitable and the patriotic, assisting the Government with funds to carry on the war, were both objects to which people might very usefully subscribe. In those circumstances it seemed proper to close the fund.\n\nThe Hon. Mr. WEI YU seconded, and the motion was carried unanimously, while Mr. N. J. Stabb, as Hon. Treasurer, and his staff were thanked for their services, on the motion of H.E. the GOVERNOR, seconded by the Hon. Mr. H. E. POLLOCK.\n\nA smoking concert held under the auspices of the Nanking branch of the Patriotic League of Britons Overseas recently realised $825, in aid of the fund for sending Christmas presents to the troops at the front.\n\nA most successful Pianoforte Recital was given on December 11th Shameen by Mr. Denman Fuller, supported by Miss Wilkes, who was ably accompanied in her songs by Mrs. Adams.

He spoke of his recent visit to Pekin and commented on the present situation in the South. Some of the chief points he mentioned were:\n\n1. The great uncertainty in Pekin itself as to the development of political events.\n2. Interference by the Japanese Consul in Tientsin in seeking and obtaining the removal to Tai Kin of a political faction that arrived from Pekin.\n3. His own difficulty in obtaining a declaration of policy from Lung Chai Kwong just before he declared the independence of Kwong Tung. Tang Iu Kwong emphasised the pressure brought to bear by the Japanese Consul in Canton upon Lung Chai Kwong at this time. The Japanese Consul urged the declaration on account of the trend of opinion in other parts of China, the stagnation of business and the bankruptcy of the local government.\n4. Lung's realisation that the declaration of independence was a mistake. Lung had requested him (Tang) to return and take up office but he was unwilling to do so. There was so much distrust among the Canton officials that he would not return.\n5. With the sanction and approval of the Japanese Consul in Canton, there were Japanese at Shiu Hing advising and assisting Shan Taun Hun. There were many Japanese agents all over China.\n6. Shan Taun Hun at Shiu Hing is powerless owing to lack of money, supplies and munitions. For this reason Leung Kai Chiu, who is now in Shanghai, will not return to Shan.",

The principal crop in Eastern Yünnan was peas, but it was not comparable with the Ssuchuan crop, or even with that of Kuischow.\n\nTwo days from Chiang-ti brought us to Loping (39 miles), over bare rough country of red and very stony earth. At Loping Mr. Chan requested me to travel direct to Yunnan-fu, suggesting that from Yunnan-fu we could take the train and do the journey to Hokow comfortably in two days. He stated that he did not like the hardships and inconvenience of travel in the interior of China. I told him that I did not propose to go to Yünnan-fu, where a British consular officer was permanently stationed; and that on no account would I travel by train on such a journey of inspection. Mr. Chan, however, never ceased for several days harping on the comforts of train-travel as compared with our rough paths and tracks.\n\nFor the next five days, from Loping to Mi-le (82 miles), the country was rough and mountainous, being at the altitude of 5,000-6,000 feet above sea-level. Yunnan is notorious for its strong winds, and it well preserved its reputation during my visit. Even in the middle of the day, wearing thick clothes and a heavy winter overcoat, I was barely comfortably warm. The \"road\" led through undulating plateaux, sometimes as much as 5 miles wide, and over mountain passes; the hill country is rocky and uncultivated. The high winds bring much dust. General conditions are thus antagonistic to agriculture in that part of Eastern Yunnan, and the attenuated crops peas and barley testified to the farmers' difficulties. Population is very sparse; in the hill districts there are a considerable number of people of the Lolo tribe.\n\nof\n\nIn leaving me at the border of his jurisdiction the Lo-ping magistrate enquired with much anxiety if I had observed any opium poppy within his jurisdiction; and he vowed that to the best of his knowledge and belief there was not a single opium plant in his territory. I replied that I was aware that local officials had shown such zeal this spring in destroying all vestiges of the opium crop.\n\nThe general poverty of the highland districts was reflected in even the official buildings. The Shih-tsung magistrate offered me quarters for the night in his own yamên; the room he offered me was as good as any in the building, but even so it was in a tumbledown condition, with large holes in the roof, which also did duty as ceiling to the room.\n\nIn the environs of Kuang-hsi, a town of some 5,750 feet of height above sea-level, and of about 2,500 inhabitants, it was a pleasing change to see extensive patches of vegetable gardens. They were quite the healthiest-looking crops I had seen in Yünnan. The soil bereabouts looked less poor, being more brown than red, the reddish soil being chiefly of a sandy consistency.\n\nFrom Mile there was difficulty about route, the only recognised road going westwards to Po-hsi on the Yunnan-Tonquin railway, and the direction in which I desired to proceed being to the south-east. Local enquiry elicited information that there were rough tracks to the south-east, but they were very rarely used, and only a very few of the natives knew their way to them. I maintained that the local officials must know, or must be able to ascertain without difficulty, the routes in any direction in their own jurisdiction, and I suggested that the local officials should provide us with responsible guides. My immediate objective was Ch'iu-pei, a fairly large town, which appeared from the map to be about five or six days' march from Mi-le. Mr. Chan offered to obtain a sketch-map of the route, and he handed me a route plan, showing five stages to Ch'iu-pei. This I agreed to follow. On the second day we reached a village, Kai-tien, when Mr. Chan coolly informed me that his plan was incorrect, and that we were now only 10 miles from Ami-chow, a town on the railway; furthermore, that the only road from Kai-tien went to Ami-chow. I was highly incensed at this impudent deception, and insisted that I would attempt to find a direct route eastwards to Ch'iu-pei. With some difficulty an inferior military officer was discovered who said he knew a track to the eastward. Next morning, however, all the bearers and coolies went on strike, saying that I was taking them into wild parts of the country, where they could get no food and where they would contract fever and die. With persuasion and argument, however, the majority of them yielded, the places of the few who refused to yield being filled by local men.\n\nAfter travelling for half a day over rough hills, inhabited here and there by Lolo charcoal-burners, we came to an impasse - a long steep descent, impossible for baggage, chairs, or animals, with a river in the valley below and a difficult, if not impossible, ascent on the far side. I clambered ahead to satisfy myself that there was no way through, and after careful examination I decided to order a retreat. Mr. Chan was obviously pleased, and said that no doubt now I would overcome my prejudice to the railway, as the road to Ami-chow was the only route left for us. But I again disappointed him by telling him that I proposed to go back one day's march and try eastwards again. So we returned the following day to Chu-yuan, and thence I was more successful and reached Chiu-pei in four days' stages, in spite of much opposition.\n\nThe road to Ch'in-psi was the highest part of my journey in Yünnan.\n\nAt Huang-Ji-baiso, a small village, in which we put up for the night, two stages before reaching Ch'iu-pei, the altitude above sea-level was 6,810 feet. Villages were not frequent along this route, and the majority of the villages were inhabited by Lolo \"savages,\" who cultivated the land in the immediate vicinity of the villages, but left the steep hill-sides and the rest of the country in a state of original wildness.\n\nAt Ch'iu-pei Taoyin Ho, of Mengtzu, met me and travelled with me for the remaining eleven days to Hokow (198 miles). His health was far from good, and he travelled huddled up in his chair, complaining of the hardships of travel and of the weather, which was far from propitious, the heavy rains being just at the commencement of their season. He also pressed me to go to Mengtzu, there to take the train for the rest of the journey. He expressed himself anxious on my behalf because of the bands of brigands which infested the south-east corner of the province, and pointed out that if I did not tell him my route in detail, he could not clear the brigands away before our arrival; but I suggested that it would be far better to take the brigands quite unawares and to capture the whole band with the aid of our brave escort.\n\nFrom Chiu-pei to Kaihua (65 miles) the country was rough and mountainous. The principal cultivation in this district is an astringent root, the local name of which is \"three-seven,\" from the fact that the root is only useful for commercial purposes between its third and its seventh years. It is cultivated in large covered enclosures, and much care is given to its cultivation, dogs and cats being kept within the enclosures to keep down rats and other vermin which find the \"san-chi\" root good to eat.\n\nAt Chiang-na, one stage before Kaihua, I was unfortunate in missing by half a day only Mr. F. Brown, of the Carnegie Terrestrial Magnetism Mission. Mr. Brown had travelled much in Yünnan this spring, and was then on his way from Bhamo to Canton, via Ssumao, Mengtzu, Kaihua, Pose. Mr. Brown's route lay from west to east. I later received a letter from Mr. Brown, informing me that he had seen no opium poppy cultivation anywhere on his various routes in Yünnan. The missionaries resident at Kaihua, Messrs. Boyd and Lewer, also informed me that they frequently visited the villages on the Kaihua plain, but had seen no opium-poppy cultivation there this spring.\n\nVillagers on this part of my journey complained of lack of rain: the very skimpy crops testified to the state of drought which I found along a considerable tract of country in Eastern Yunnan. But the country itself is so stony and full of rocks that even with favourable weather conditions crops could never be anything but poor. Among the rough hills I occasionally saw Lolo women planting out paddy. Goitre is very prevalent in this district, especially among women. Beyond Kaihua, to Ma-kuan (40 miles), the country was still very hilly and villages were few and far between, and cultivation thin and poor. A great deal of pine scrub thinly covers the country in this district. Crops now included sugar-cane.\n\nThe rainy season was now setting in in earnest, and we were on the point of descending from the Yunnan plateau to the valleys near the Tonkin border, notorious for its fever and malaria. Coolies were daily falling out sick; and the Taoyin again endeavoured to induce me to change the route in the direction of the railway. I was obdurate, however, and by pressing on managed to reach Hokow, 93 miles from Makuan, in four days.\n\nfort close to the Tonkin\n\nOn the second day we reached Hsin-tien, a Chinese frontier. The height here above sea-level was 4,420 feet. Next day we commenced to descend, rapidly reaching tropical heat and vegetation. Putting up for the night in a small Lolo village, we were able to arrive on the following evening at Hokow, which town adjoins the French town of Laokai. The inhabitants of the country between Hsin-tien and Hokow are chiefly frontier tribes; the country is wild and uncultivated, except in the immediate vicinity of the villages. Some maize was being grown in the lower country.\n\nIn my direct route through Eastern Yünnan I traversed 484 miles. This does not include the excursions I made each evening from our day's destination. I saw no opium-poppy cultivation, nor did I see many signs of fields from which poppy may have been uprooted prior to my arrival. I am of opinion that in any case Eastern Yunnan is a particularly poor and arid country; that it is sparsely inhabited by a very poor type of\n\n[2729 k-1]\n\nE",

Olitsky, M.R.C., U.S.A., of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, New York.\n\nHIS EXCELLENCY THE OFFICER ADMINISTERING THE GOVERNMENT, CLAUD SEVERN, C.M.G.\n\nH.E. THE OFFICER ADMINISTERING THE GOVERNMENT- I do not intend on this occasion to deal in any exhaustive way with the very interesting and instructive report written by Lieutenant Olitsky as a result of his investigations of the outbreak of epidemic Meningitis in Hongkong in the early part of this year which has been laid before you to-day. I think, however, that honourable members will agree that the Colony is indebted to Lieutenant Olitsky for the painstaking care with which he studied, during quite a short period, conditions entirely new to him with the result that he has been able to give some very practical advice as to how this threat to the public health may best be met.\n\nThe portion of the report that will appeal most strongly to the ordinary reader is that contained on pages 9 to 10, namely, the course of the epidemic and the factors contributing to its dissemination, especially the facts as regards overcrowding on pages 9 and 10. I feel sure that honourable members will realise what the work entailed in getting rid of such overcrowding, quite apart from the expenditure, would amount to. The task of correcting the errors of the past will, however, have to be faced if the community is to be protected against serious epidemics of disease. In this connection, I would direct attention to the interesting comparison on page 16 of the report between the overcrowding in Hongkong and Canton and to the statement in paragraph C (1) of the summary on page 21 that the greater number of cases developed in cold weather as compared with hot weather is due to overcrowding becoming greater, and the effect of cold weather on the meningococci.\n\n### PRESENT:\n\nHON. MR. A. G. M. FLETCHER (Colonial Secretary).\nHON. MR. J. H. KEMP (Attorney-General).\nHON. MR. A. M. THOMSON (Colonial Treasurer).\nHON. MR. T. L. PERKINS (Director of Public Works).\nHON. MR. E. R.

        "content_text": "# HONGKONG LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL\n\nI would suggest that the site for the Hospital and Asylum on the Praya East reclamation be kept slightly raised above the level of the surrounding buildings. This position, with a view over the harbour on one side and the Wong-nei-chong valley on the other, would be a good alternative, though personally I consider Kennedy Town the better of the two.\n\nI saw a man there suffering in that manner, and he was placed in a ward with a lot of lunatics. I cannot imagine anything more likely to send anyone off his head than to find himself in such company. Surely, sir, it cannot be right that such cases should be herded with those who are permanently insane.\n\nI would have liked to see a small sum allocated for the purpose of providing some better means of displaying the names of the streets in the Colony, particularly on the upper levels and in the outlying districts. I have seen quite an artistic method of dealing with the subject carried out in combination with the lamp-posts. No one will dispute the fact that the lamp-posts in the Colony are far from being things of beauty, and yet there is no reason why they should not be artistic. As, however, the Government finds that it must increase the accommodation of the existing Asylum, I would ask them to provide a separate house for cases suffering from the effect of alcohol.\n\nOn one of my visits as a Justice of the Peace, I saw the need for this. And, with the name of the street worked into the design so that it faces one as one passes to and fro, an effect can be obtained which is both pleasing and useful. I offer the suggestion to the Government in connection with the vote of $12,000, which is partly for providing additional lamps.\n\nThere is a sum of $5,500 allowed in the estimates for a crematorium. We should like to see the plan laid on the table so that we may be sure of what we are going to get for our money, whether sufficient accommodation is provided, or whether we shall have to spend more money in the near future.\n\nAs regards the Praya East reclamation, I would like the Government to see whether some scheme cannot be devised so that, when the ground is built upon, a uniform design for houses on the front be agreed upon. I think that if a committee of architects were formed and a uniform type of design were drawn up, we should then have a fine front to display to the harbour instead of the ramshackle appearance which obtains on the Praya to the westward.\n\nThere is one other matter which I wish to say a few words about, viz., the Housing problem. It was not to be expected that one would find anything in the budget more directly relative to the subject than the provision of new roads opening-up new areas for building purposes. Because, up to date, no concrete proposals have been put forward, and I have no doubt that the Government is waiting for private enterprise to give them a lead.\n\nThe provision of new roads needed urgently is the first step in the right direction, but don't let the Government stop at that and think their work is finished - that is the starting point. The next step is the leasing of suitable sites at a reasonable cost. By suitable, I mean sites that are easily developed; not the kind where a quarter of one's capital is sunk in retaining walls and foundations. Fairly level ground, easy of access, is what is wanted.\n\nI will ask the Government to do all they can to help owners and architects over the disposing of surplus spoil where there is considerable cutting to be done in the formation of a site. If this spoil has to be carried down and put into junks, it greatly increases the cost of making a site and forms one of the reasons why building is so expensive. Finally, I would suggest the Government lend the money for the erection of houses at a low rate of interest. At Home and in various other places in the Empire, the Government is, and has been for years, lending money for housing schemes.\n\nWith regard to the question of a wholesale poultry market, I also find myself in agreement with the honourable member representing the Justices of the Peace. I was a member of the Sub-Committee of the Sanitary Board mentioned by him, and I know how real and insanitary the nuisance complained of is.\n\nI am sure that if the officials who have authority to deal with and dispose of this matter were to spend a couple of hours in Ko Shing or Li Shing Street while sorting of poultry is in progress, they would have the nuisance stopped in very quick time.\n\nAfter all, the amount necessary for building the market is not so very large an outlay that the Colony cannot bear it, especially when it will bring in a not inconsiderable revenue. I therefore urge that the work be proceeded with at once.\n\nIn New Zealand, there is an Act of Parliament called the Government Advances to Workers Act, by which a man can borrow money from the Government to make a home for himself. In England, vast sums of money have been lent for this same purpose by the Public Works Loan Commissioners, which body gets its funds from the National Debt Commissioners, and there are other instances too numerous to mention here. Therefore, I see no reason why this Government should not do something similar.\n\nIt seems to me that if the employers of labour and others who are otherwise progressive were to meet together and form some sort of Co-operative Building Society on the lines of those existing in nearly all the big cities in England, some workable scheme might be evolved; but to command success, any scheme must have the Government's sympathy and co-operation - not only must you provide suitable sites at a reasonable price, but you must drain the nullahs, lay the main drains, give us water and light and easy means of access.\n\nI would ask you, sir, not to dismiss this matter from your thoughts without grave consideration. The subject is one which is attracting world-wide attention. Every newspaper one takes up has reference to it. Madras has just started a housing scheme, and Singapore will probably be the next. Therefore, I would ask you to consider whether it would not be advisable to appoint a Commission to go into the question. If this is done, I feel sure that useful results will follow.\n\nThere is one thing that this war has taught us, and that is to think more largely than before. Schemes that would have taken our breath away before the war have been carried out successfully and with great difficulty. Where there is a will, there is a way, and I see no reason why, as far as public works matters are concerned, we should not strike out the word impossible from our vocabulary.\n\nHON. MR. S. H. DODWELL - The ground has been so well covered by other unofficial members that there is only one point I wish to raise, but that I think is an important one. It has reference to the controlled ships' accounts which were lightly touched on by the hon. senior unofficial member of the Council. I presume that the fact that these controlled ships' accounts do not appear separately does not mean that the local Government is appropriating the proceeds. I take it the accounts will not only be kept separate but that the proceeds will in due course be handed over to the Home Government.\n\nHON. MR. CHAN KAI MING - Sir, the views and suggestions of my Chinese colleague have my cordial support. As an old resident, I well remember the free Government vernacular schools mentioned by him. There are still living several prominent members of the Chinese community who received the rudiments of their education at such institutions. It would be interesting to speculate what the honourable member of this Council for whom I am now acting would have become, had he not had the chance of a free vernacular and English education in his young days.\n\nThe probability is that Hongkong would have lost one of its most public-spirited and useful citizens. There may, at this moment, be many youngsters among the poor who, if given the same opportunity, might one day rise to positions of honour similar to those attained by our friend, and render important services to the Colony. A system of education which neglects the up-bringing of the children of the poor must be wrong, and the sooner it is remedied the better it will be for the good name of this otherwise progressive Colony.\n\nTHE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS - I think most of the points raised by the Unofficial members in connection with Public Works are covered by a general statement regarding the shortage of the staff in the Department. Out of a total of 20 engineers, we have 13 at the present moment.",

        "content_text": "Council\n\n10\n\nLEPIEJ TM\n\nquestion which the hon. member pui at an earlier stage of this meeting. In regard to the same subject the Government as speedily as possible is marking out land in the Ho Mun Tiu district and hope very shortly to come to some arrangement with the parties interested in the building of a geriam number of houses there. It is also marking out land at Kowloon Tong and arrangements there are being advanced as speedy as possible. I think the grant of cheap land and easy communication will very largely solve the housing difficulty. It was found in the recent allotment of money that the large majority of the applicants were men of straw who had no possible security to give. Their only suggestion was that the Government should provide the houses for which they should pay some $25 month. Only one has made a definite proposition and he has been given very cheap land at Fanling and an advance of half the cost of his house.\n\nThe hon. member has learnt with astonishment that no steps have been taken to proceed with the proposed tramway to Wanchai Gap. I, for my part, bear this statement with astonishment, because the unofficial members, who are members of the Public Works Committee of this Council, advised that it should be left out. I would mention that a rough survey has been prepared and a very rough estimate of the cost is two lakhs, without taking into account motive power of any description. We might take power from the Hongkong Electric Company. One reason why it got going on is that sites at Wanchai Gap are being opened up by the new road.\n\nOne of the reasons for the Wanchai Gap Tramway was the inadequacy of the present tramway to the Peak. We are negotiating with the Peak Tramway Company to bring the tram down to Queen's Road and to enlarge the cars to carry nearly double the number of people they now carry. I hope the arrangements made will not necessitate any large increase in fares.\n\nThe Hon. Mr. POLLOCK-I should like to ask when the unofficial members said they advised leaving out the tram to Wanchai Gap.\n\nThe GOVERNOR-During my absence, I think, Mr. Pollock.\n\nThe hon. member also referred to omary land in Nathan Road, Kowloon, and expressed the hope that there would be nearly co-operation between the military and Government on that matter. We can assure him on that point. The project generally is that the military should go over to the other side and that they should give up that area along Nathan Road, known as Whitfield Barracks; that the European troops should be accommodated at Gun Club Hill and King's Park, leaving the golf course intact and that native troops should be to the north and east of Kowloon city. It is hoped that we may be able to take over the military hospital and that a new hospital for the military would be built on one of those hills directly west of the Cement Works. The smoke nuisance will have to be abated. With regard to the U.S.R.U., it is suggested that this should be on the site of the present parade ground at Whitfield.\n\nThese proposals are, of course, purely tentative.\n\nThe Fraya Basin Reclamation is being pushed on as quickly as possible. The preliminary work is very heavy and two engineers are devoting their whole time to the matter. As soon as figures are ready tenders will be called for. The hon. member has expressed the hope that, in order to assist the Kai Tack Reclamation scheme, the Kowloon East ferry service and the motor-bus service should be pushed on. As regards the ferry service, tenders are being called for this week. As regards the motor-bus service, we have referred the proposed schedule and rates to the Kowloon Residents' Association and we are merely waiting till they have given us their views.\n\nThe hon. member suggested appointing a Committee to discuss and report on the feasibility of the Naval Wireless Station Stonecutters being used for commercial purposes and in this connection, I may refer also to the remarks made by the member representing the Chamber of Commerce. The matter has been fully discussed and it will serve no useful purpose to go into it again. It has been pointed out that the station is not powerful enough and the system on which it is run is not fitted for commercial work in the ordinary sense. With regard to the general question, I have here the report of the Imperial Wireless Committee, 1919-20, which considered the whole subject of wireless telegraphy throughout the British Empire. It is apparent to everybody we cannot stand alone. We must have stations linked up in order to get our messages through to England.\n\nThe COLONIAL SECRETARY then read several extracts from the report to the effect that stations not more than 2,000 miles apart were recommended, a commencement to be made with the chain ending in Hongkong.\n\nThe Hon. Mr. HOLYOAK-I have read the report very carefully myself. What I wish to emphasise is that we must have a station and we must have it at the earliest possible moment. This morning's paper reports wireless messages between Bordeaux and Shanghai and New York and Manila.\n\nThe COLONIAL SECRETARY-In reply to Mr. Lau Chu-pak on the question of the hawkers I am astonished that Mr. Holyoak has expressed his sympathy with the hon. member's remarks. I am surprised because Mr. Holyoak has also stated that Hongkong has not begun to realise that there is such a thing as motor-traffic. The question of hawkers is primarily one of traffic control, and of good order and cleanliness. It is admittedly difficult for the Government to state exactly the number required in the public interest before they transgress into a public nuisance. They admittedly squat with their stalls all about the thoroughfares and litter the place with refuse and add very considerably to the labours of the Sanitary Department in scavenging. They insist on selling their wares in prohibited areas and generally obstruct traffic. Anyone who has been through western Victoria or Yaumati will agree. We have waged incessant warfare to get the streets reasonably clear and I submit it is unfair that we should be asked to issue licences indiscriminately and then put on extra Police to chase them from pillar to post. The Government estimates a revenue of $28,000 on 7,000 licences, as against 9,000 in the present year. It is not proposed to reduce the numbers by taking away licences; all hawkers who now have licences will have them renewed and if there are more than 7,000 applicants for renewal, licenses will be renewed accordingly. Licenses will also be given to applicants in special cases, but they will not be granted to all and sundry. It is not proved that because a license is refused to a person he immediately becomes a criminal but it is true in many cases that a hawker takes...\n\n219",

Anyone who does so is liable to a fine of $1,000.\n\nClause 17 provides that any rent not payable under the Ordinance which has been paid by mistake can be recovered from the landlord and stopped out of the next rent payable.\n\nI beg, Sir, to move the second reading. **THE COLONIAL SECRETARY** seconded.\n\n**THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL** formally moved, and **THE COLONIAL SECRETARY** seconded, that certain interested persons who desired to be heard by Counsel should be so heard.\n\nThe motion was agreed to.\n\nThe possible into the market and buy private land in preference to Government land. They will rather pay more and be sure they get the land they ask for than take months and months of trouble, resulting in the land being purchased by someone else. This is one of the causes, and perhaps the main cause, of the situation which has brought this Bill about. The second cause is the fact that the military authorities own large sections of land in the centre of the town which they do not require and which they do not put to use. That has caused a congestion which is inevitable and led to the law of supply and demand of private property soaring to great heights. And the third and more temporary cause is the general trade slump which started about a year ago. After the war, there was a trade boom and money was locked up in trade, but the trade slump has caused money which would otherwise be invested in commercial enterprises being devoted to the purchase of shares, or the acquisition of landed property, with the result that both shares and land in this Colony have recently boomed. The money was legitimately invested and invested on the faith that the investors would get an adequate return for the money invested. Properties have changed hands in the last few months, not only on the basis of the rents then paid but on the basis of the return the landlord expected to get for his money, the law allowing him to increase his rents, and that is why a Bill such as this, which destroys the sanctity of contract, and which is retrospective, will destroy that very confidence on which all trade and all investment is based. So far from leading to further building, it will make further building in this Colony almost impossible, for once the Government sanctions the principle of retrospective legislation, there is no limit to the amount of retrospective legislation which may be subsequently introduced, and one will not know what return he may get upon his money.\n\nClause 3 of the Bill states that \"notwithstanding any agreement to the contrary, whether made before or after the commencement of this Ordinance, and whether oral or in writing, no rent shall be recoverable\" except the standard rent and that rent was fixed as the rent of last December. One of the results of this will be that persons who have, with the assistance of the law, evicted the tenants of last year by offering to pay a higher rent to take their place will now be protected and permitted to pay only the rent that was paid by the people that they themselves dispossessed.\n\n**MR. C. G. ALABASTER** said—May it please your Excellency and members of the Council, I am instructed by 31 proprietors of domestic tenements in Hong Kong, who represent between them many millions of dollars of invested money, to present their petition, copies of which are, I think, in the hands of all the members of this honourable Council, and to represent their views on this matter. I do so at the risk of being described, as I have already been described in a petition in anticipation, as a \"counsellor of evil\"; for it is a principle of that British justice, which is represented by the law and is to be found in those institutions, such as this, where the law is made, that all sides are entitled to a hearing and all sides are entitled to be represented by spokesmen.\n\nNow this Bill is opposed by those I represent, and many more who have not had time to prepare or sign petitions, because it is a bad Bill. It is a Bill which, as is confessed in the memorandum of Objects and Reasons, was prepared in a hurry, which does not carry out the suggestions on which the Committee appointed was instructed to act, and which attempts to meet a situation which is not a sudden emergency but which is the result of a number of contributing causes which have operated during the last 10 or 15 years and which this Bill does nothing to remove—in fact, which this Bill does much to accentuate.\n\nThe chief of these causes has been the policy of the Land Sales Department of this Colony. The harassing restrictions which are placed in the way of every applicant for land, in whatever part of the Colony he may be, has forced people who are desirous to build to go as far as possible into the market and buy private land in preference to Government land.\n\n|          | \n|----------| \n| 10       | \n\nI think the greatest possible objection to this Bill is the clause which fixes the 31st December last year as the date at which the standard rent should be fixed. If it is necessary to fix a standard rent, surely the rent of the 30th June would be a better one, for at that date it was known that the Government contemplated such a Bill and subsequent purchases of property, if any, have been made on that understanding.\n\nWith your Excellency's permission, I will read the petition and make comments as I go.\n\n## TO HIS EXCELLENCY SIR REGINALD EDWARD STUBBS, K.C.M.G.,\n\nGovernor and Commander-in-Chief of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies and Vice-Admiral of the same and to the Several Honourable Members of the Legislative Council of Hongkong,\n\nThe Humble Petition of Li Wai Po, Chung Ting Chiu, Wong Sing Fai, Tang Hung, Tsui Kin Kwok, Tung Wai, Leung Hing Ip, Chiu Wai, Leung Wai Nam, Leung Shiu Kap, Fung Im, Chin Wong Shi, Sz To Shun Cho, Cheng Yuen, Leung Ying Chi, Pan Cheong Lam, Chan Hoi Lam, Ho Cheuk Ting, Leung Sai Chun, Yu Wai, Chan Wing Sing, Yuen Sam, Lau Kut Choi, Luk Choi Ting, Tam Chai Yat, Pun Cheung Shi, Young Ho, Wong Ping Ting, Chan Ka Ming, Chan Ka On, and Chau Shing Lee, all of Victoria in the Colony of Hongkong, Property Owners.\n\nSheweth :-\n\n1. That your petitioners are proprietors of domestic tenements in Hongkong and desire to point out to Your Excellency and Honourable Members of the Legislative Council certain objections to the proposed Ordinance to amend the law relating to the recovery of possession in certain cases and to restrict the rents of certain domestic tenements and to amend the Rating Ordinance, (hereinafter called \"the Bill\").\n\n2. Your petitioners verily believe that their views as expressed in this petition are shared by a large majority of the owners of domestic tenements in Hong Kong.\n\n3. That your petitioners view with alarm the principle of the whole Bill as unduly interfering with the law of supply and demand and as tending to prevent the free development of the Colony. That notwithstanding the exceptions contained in the Bill newly erected property your petitioners do not believe this will lead to the erection of any considerable number of domestic tenements seeing that there is no guarantee contained in the Bill that a similar Bill will not be passed in the near future bringing such newly erected property within its provisions. Your petitioners, therefore, humbly beg to submit that a provision be added to the Bill providing that all buildings now in course of erection or hereafter to be erected shall be excluded from the provisions of this or any Bill to the like effect for a period of at least 15 years.\n\n4. Your petitioners also humbly beg to submit that this Bill if passed will cause a serious fall in the value of domestic tenements and that a considerable loss will fall on those persons who have recently purchased property on the basis of the rentals now prevailing in the Colony.\n\n5. Your petitioners further humbly submit that the Ordinance should not be made retrospective but that the standard rent should be the rent payable on the coming into force of the Bill which should not be a date earlier than the date upon which the Ordinance receives the assent of His Excellency the Governor for the following reasons:-\n\n(a) That purchasers of property since the 31st day of December, 1920, have purchased the same on the basis of the rentals payable at the time of purchase and on the basis of the rents which your petitioners knew the tenants were willing to pay in respect of the properties occupied by them.\n\n(b) That mortgagees have lent money on such properties the amount of loan being based upon the value of the property calculated on the rents receivable at the time of the mortgage and on the saleable value of similar property in the open market which value was based not only upon the rentals then paid but on the demand for domestic tenements in Hongkong.",

        "content_text": "# Report on a Journey of Investigation into the Cultivation of the Opium Poppy in South Fukien, jointly with Officials appointed by the Chinese Government, by Mr. Turner.\n\nThe delegates selected by the Central and Provincial Governments respectively were Mr. Sou Gee Chuang, an official of the Board of the Interior, and Mr. Chan I'ai Kong, Taotai of Foochow and President of the Anti-Opium Bureau of Fukien. Mr. E. Cheers, of the Straits Settlement Police Service, acted as interpreter in the Amoy dialect, which is current in all the districts visited except Hing Hua, Sien Yu, and Hok Ching, south of Foochow.\n\nA rough map is attached showing the route taken, which embraced all the former principal poppy-growing centres of South Fukien. The distance covered was approximately 1,600 li, or 530 English miles, the journey occupying twenty-five days - from the 23rd February to the 19th March. In all, seventeen districts were examined out of a total of thirty-two comprised in the lower portion of the province.\n\nIn the first district visited, that of Hai Teng, the vigorous measures taken in the autumn by the local authorities checked extensive sowing, though a certain amount was discovered by the opium inspector in January and uprooted. In the spring of 1913, Captain Connelly, of the Hong Kong garrison, whilst on a shooting expedition, found large areas under poppy cultivation in the vicinity of Chhe Nia and the authorities taking no apparent action, but a local convert of Kang Boe, a neighbouring village, informed me that this region is now quite free. From reports of native pastors, I also learned that no poppy now existed in the broad belt of coast land south of Amoy and Hai Teng. (I have since heard from a missionary that he travelled through the whole of this country at the beginning of March without finding a trace of poppy.)\n\nForeigners who had recently made the journey from Changpu to Amoy having reported that the main route via O Sai had been cleared of poppy, I chose the northern road from Hai Teng, which branches off due west at T'eh Chui Ying, turning south again at Koan Jim through the Tng Kio and Kio Lai. As far as could be judged, this part of the country was now almost entirely given up to rice cultivation, the Nan Ch'i River and its tributaries affording an abundant water supply. Between Tng Kio, where we were met by a military officer in charge of 700 soldiers sent to uproot the poppy, and Changpu several fields where opium had been pulled up were passed, these being readily distinguished from the fact that, having been confiscated, they were now overgrown with weeds. Last spring, this region was one of the chief poppy-growing centres of the district. As far as I could gather, the soldiers arrived in December, meeting with no little resistance before the plant was eventually all destroyed.\n\nThe Changpu authorities appear to have counterbalanced their indifference of last spring, when there was extended cultivation throughout the district, by extreme severity in the autumn. Mr. Watson, of the English Presbyterian Mission at Changpu, told me that he was prepared to state positively that not a plant remained in the whole country between Changpu and Hai Teng, with the possible exception of a small patch hidden in a secluded valley near Toa Pu, of which he had heard many vague rumours. Mr. Watson's opinions were based partly on the declarations of the native pastors of his district at a recent conference at O Sai, and partly on personal observation during his periodical visits to native mission stations.\n\nFrom Changpu to Yunsiao, the road lies for some 8 or 9 miles over a broad, sandy, barren plain up to a range of hills some 1,200 feet high, crossed by a low pass, with a fertile valley producing rice, sugar-cane, barley, and beans on the other side. From Pan To Hsu to Tunsiao, the country is too hilly to suit the poppy, which requires the rich soil of the plains and a sheltered situation to thrive to perfection, and the task of the local authorities has accordingly been comparatively light. I learned that the district opium inspector had conducted a very strict examination in October and November last, whilst the magistrate himself informed me that of the thirty days he had been in office, twenty had been spent in scouring the country for any heads that might have eluded the observation of the inspector and his staff. Native reports confirmed the magistrate's assurance that no poppy was now left in the district.\n\nAt Chao An, I called on Father David de Miguel of the Roman Catholic Mission, who informed me that it was possible that a small quantity of poppy might still remain in the second tu or division of the magistracy, though the magistrate had a few weeks previously, on hearing of the tour of inspection, made a journey in person through this region and had a thorough uprooting. He was unable to say for certain if all had been removed, but assured me that the rest of the district was free, the people having been thoroughly scared by the arrival of the northern soldiers. The present magistrate, Mr. Chang Tseng Pa, has held office for six months. His predecessor took no steps to put a stop to the cultivation of the poppy, for which and for general maladministration he was eventually arrested and sent to Foochow for trial. Mr. Chang, on the other hand, has the reputation of being a very keen suppressionist and an able official; at the beginning of his campaign, he was placed in a difficulty by the opposition of the gentry, of whom a few leading members were financially interested in the cultivation of the drug, and were supporting the farmers in resisting the authorities. Mr. Chang promptly arrested two of the most influential, and has since had the support of the remainder. He told me that barley and tobacco were largely replacing the former opium crops. This applies in fact to the whole of the country west of Changchow, the large areas under tobacco, the leaf of which is, however, of an inferior quality, being particularly noticeable.\n\nThe country between Chao An and Ping Ho, on the borders of Kuangtung province, is little frequented by foreigners, and no reports had been received regarding the opium measures in force there. Consequently, although this part of the province has never had the reputation of being a large opium-producing centre, I was anxious to discover whether as clean a sweep had been made as in those districts nearer to the control of the high provincial authorities. Practically the whole of the 60 miles between Chao An and Ping Ho is mountainous, but the hill slopes are mostly under terrace cultivation and the valleys rich with a vast variety of native crops, rice, barley, sugar-cane, and sweet potatoes being the staple products.\n\nAfter leaving Chao An, we passed through the second tu of the district, where I had been informed there was a possibility of finding poppy, but I discovered neither traces of it nor signs of recently disturbed fields. This is probably explained by the fact that in practice, confiscated land is frequently sold back to the village or clan to which it belonged, the penalty for growing the forbidden plant being thus a double fine.\n\nAs regards the Ping Ho district, little pressure was required to induce the farmers to abandon cultivation, and it had not been found necessary to call for troops. At Sio Khe, a local missionary informed me that suppression measures had been most severe, and that, so far as the strict enquiries he had made went, the district was quite free from poppy. A native pastor had, however, informed him that a small patch was being grown in a secluded spot 20 miles north of Lung Shan; but Mr. Vosknil was confident that, if such were indeed the case, it was not being grown with the connivance of the opium inspector, of whom he spoke very highly. I was unable to ascertain the exact locality of the field.\n\nFrom native sources at Lam Ching, I learned that young poppy had been freely uprooted in December, the owner of one field being fined 800 dollars. On the whole, however, the autumn sowing had not been excessive. A reward of 100 dollars was being offered for information of any poppy still growing instead of the usual percentage of the fine imposed. Here, as elsewhere, all sorts of rumours with regard to the inspection of the province were current, the country people firmly believing that if any opium were discovered, both the grower and the district magistrate would be shot and a fine of several hundred thousand dollars demanded by the British Government.\n\nAt Changt'ai, from all accounts, the magistrate, Mr. Sou Gee Chen, a brother of the metropolitan delegate, appears to have cleared his district thoroughly. I passed through the chief former opium-growing region, and found it now almost entirely under barley.\n\nFrom Changt'ai, I took a by-road through Be Iun and Pho Tan to Koan Khau, where no traces of a former large poppy-field were now visible. The aspect of the country here changes, the hills of the west giving way to a broad plain, across which a clear view of several miles is obtained on all sides. Between Koan Khau and Ch'uan Chow lies the largest poppy-producing district of Fukien, the yield of former years in the Tong An district, according to semi-official Chinese estimates, being 50 per cent of that of the whole province.\n\nThe zone of greatest activity lies immediately south of Teng An itself, particularly in the neighbourhood of Mahang. For this reason, Teng An has been...\n\nPage 27\n\n... \n\nPage 503",

They believed the whole district to be at present quite free. A lady who had made the opium movement a keen study informed me that, according to rough observations made by her, 50 per cent of the cultivable land within a few miles radius of the city was under poppy in 1912, but during frequent journeys this year, mostly off the main routes, she had not seen a single plant. Another lady, who had just returned from a visit to the Ankhoe district, had also seen no poppy growing. The country north of that city is mountainous, and produces very little poppy, the plant when fully grown being only 8 or 10 inches high, and yielding little juice.\n\nAs the main road from Tong An to Ch'uan Chow was reported to be then free from poppy by a foreigner who made the journey in December last, I decided to strike across country from Ma Hang, dipping down south to Khoe Tang, on the sea border opposite to the large island of Kim Mng, and thence making Chuan Chow via An Hai and Chioh Sai. Between Tong An and Ma Hang the country was literally a blaze of poppy last spring, but not a vestige was now to be seen. The magistrate at Ma Hang, which has long been notorious for its connection with the opium industry, informed me that little poppy had been sown in the autumn, attributing the fact to the people's intelligence in appreciating the arguments of his proclamations, but it is probable that his treatment of offenders, which consists, in the first place, in burning their houses, confiscating their lands, and fining them heavily, and, in the second place, in beheading them if they receive these correctives with ill grace, and the presence of several companies of northern troops in the district, have been more potent deterrents to growers. It is, however, remarkable that the abandonment of an industry which, according to the magistrate's estimate, was worth 2,000,000 dollars per annum to the people of Ma Hang alone should have provoked so little resistance, and it is probable that this district will require careful watching in the future.\n\nThe inspection in this part of the country has been carried out with great thoroughness. Large barley fields, whose extent of area might have concealed a few stalks, and patches of sugar cane have been carefully examined by the inspectors, whilst suspicious houses have been entered, even a few heads of poppy growing in earthenware pots in courtyards or on the house roofs being a sufficient source of profit to induce villagers to run the risks of detection. Here, as in most parts of South Fukien, barley appears to have largely taken the place of the poppy.\n\nBetween An Hai and Ch'uan Chow an agreement was entered into last spring between the officials and the people, by which the latter were permitted to harvest the crop on giving an undertaking that no sowing should be made in the following season. This contract seems to have been faithfully carried out by both parties, for I heard of none having been planted in the autumn, whilst Ch'uan Chow missionaries informed me that in the course of up-country journeys at the new year they had seen no sign of poppy. In the adjoining district of Lam An, however, where no such compromise was made, resistance to the authorities necessitated military measures, the plant being forcibly uprooted in December. From Chuan Chow I made a day's excursion to Lam An and the neighbourhood without finding any trace of opium.\n\n## Page 28\n\nOn arriving at Hui An I found that the Anti-Opium Commissioner of Amoy, Mr. Ding Neng Guang, was then in the district scouring the country for poppy. Common with magistrates of other districts in the province, Mr. Shih Wei Ch'ung, the Hui An magistrate, when called upon for his report, had notified the Foochow head office that his district was free from the plant. This appears to have been a deliberate misrepresentation of fact, since the district opium inspector had sent in to him at the end of last year a list of places (all in the Tau Pak region, north of Hui An) where he had found poppy still growing. The magistrate, however, took no steps to uproot it, though he had plenty of troops at his disposal. The incorrectness of this report in due course reached the ears of the Amoy Commissioner, at whose request the Governor sent 200 more soldiers from Foochow, but the magistrate had not attempted to employ them. It was doubtless misgivings of the magistrate's zeal that suggested to Mr. Ding the advisability of having a final look at the district before the inspection commission passed through. Mr. Ding arrived at Hui An eight days before me, and, after obtaining information from the local missionaries and the opium inspector, left with the latter and a force of soldiers for the localities under poppy.\n\nIt was known by the Hui An authorities that Mr. Ding was in the neighbourhood conducting a vigorous campaign, but they were ignorant as to what parts had actually been cleared and what remained to be cleared by him. In these circumstances, when I informed Mr. Chan Pai Kong in the evening that it would be necessary for me to go to Lam Po viâ Goa Chhu on the following day, there was considerable anxiety on the part of the Chinese delegates lest we might meet with poppy in that district. Many difficulties were raised, but Mr. Chan promised to do his best to overcome them.\n\nOn the following morning I was surprised to find that orders had been issued to proceed to Lam Po via Ko Koai and Tho Nia instead of as originally arranged. I protested strongly against this change of route, but Mr. Chan assured me positively that the latter route was impracticable owing to a high range of hills which could not be crossed. There was some suspicion in my mind that the Chinese authorities were uncertain of the country between Iap Chhu and Lam Po or that they were endeavouring to gain time, and this suspicion was strengthened later in the day, when, after leaving Tho Nia, a body of sixty soldiers returning to Hui An were passed. Mr. Chan's secretary admitted to me that these troops had been sent off late the previous evening to Lam Po to make sure that there was no poppy still there. The fact, however, that they were returning to Hui An viâ Tho Nia seems to bear out Mr. Chan's statement that the other route was impracticable. It is true that a high range of hills lay between Iap Chhu and Goa Chhu and that there seemed to be no roads in this part of the country, the morning journey from Ku Jim through Ko Koai to Tho Nia being mostly over paddy fields. No poppy was seen, but near Ko Koai traces were visible of the uprooting in the foregoing week. A missionary at Hui An informed me that it was pulled up at this village seven days before my arrival, he himself having seen it in the fields on the previous day. It was noteworthy that the streets of the villages in this neighbourhood were deserted, the inhabitants, fearing retribution, having locked themselves behind their doors.\n\nI may mention that at Hui An a foreigner in the employ of Messrs. Burroughs and Wellcome called on me, and informed me that he had been travelling in the south of the province for six weeks and had not seen a single plant. The places visited by this gentleman are marked on the attached map.*\n\nTime was too short to admit of going to Sien Yu, but the magistrate of that district met us at Hong Tan, which is under his jurisdiction. He informed me that he had invited the co-operation of the missionaries in eradicating the poppy from his district, and had in his possession certificates given by them attesting that his jurisdiction was quite free. He was so confident that no more now remained that he was offering a reward of 500 dollars for information of any poppy still growing.\n\nAt Hsing Hua I found Mr. Ding Neng Guang, who had finished his work in the Hui An district. He told me that he had had a busy week clearing out poppy, and believed that the district was now practically free. He had left subordinates behind to complete the task more thoroughly, however, as he himself had to go on to other districts.\n\nThe head of the Church Missionary Society at Hsing Hua assured me that no opium was now left in that neighbourhood, nor, as far as he knew, in the whole of the country between Hsing Hua and Foochow, where formerly large areas had been under cultivation. As far as Hsing Hua was concerned, the proclamations of the magistrate and the warnings of the gentry had generally sufficed to prevent a heavy sowing, or, where the seed had actually been sown, to persuade the people to abandon cultivation. At Sien Yu in the previous spring some trouble had been caused by the Foochow Government's repudiation of the local authorities' permission for the crop to be gathered in on condition that it should be the last, and the city had been ultimately captured by banditti, who championed the people for the consideration of 1 dollar per acre; but he believed that there was now no poppy remaining of which the officials had cognisance.\n\nAfter an eventless journey of two days Foochow was reached on the morning of the 20th March.\n\nThe net results of the inspection, therefore, are that during a journey of over 500 miles through the principal producing centres of South Fukien no opium was ...\n\n* Not reproduced.\n\n## Page 504",

        "content_text": "# Report of an Inspection of the Eastern Part of the Province of Yunnan, to learn the Amount of Cultivation of Opium Poppy. May, 1917.\n\nUNDER instructions from His Majesty's Chargé d'Affaires at Peking, I had left Ichang on the 10th March, 1917, in order to proceed to the province of Kueichow to inspect that province for opium cultivation. I reached Chungking on the 27th March, and there I found awaiting me further instructions from His Majesty's Chargé d'Affaires, ordering me to continue my journey when I had traversed the province of Kueichow, and to make a similar journey of inspection through the eastern part of Yunnan province. I completed my journey through Kueichow province on the 1st May, on which day I arrived at Chiang-ti, a small village on the Ching Ho or Ching-fei Ho, a river which forms the boundary-line between the two provinces of Kueichow and Yunnan at that point. The Chinese official delegates from the provincial capital of Yunnan were awaiting me in a village, on the Yunnan side of the river; and having crossed the river into Yunnan at 7:30 on the morning of the 2nd May, I was received by them, and after a brief conference and farewells to the Kueichow delegates, who had accompanied me across the river, we proceeded on our journey in Yunnan.\n\nThe Yunnan delegates were two: the senior was Mr. Chan Ping-chung, the head of the Bureau des Renseignements, at Yunnan-fu; a secret service department, and the assistant delegate was a Mr. Yang, a clerk from one of the Yunnan-fu yamêns.\n\nMany changes were noticeable on passing from Kueichow to Yunnan. The aspect of the country took on a change for the worse, characterised by comparative barrenness and bleakness; and the Yunnan native was of a poorer class and of an inferior type than his Kueichow brother. The general deterioration was visible also in the crops, which were everywhere poor and scanty. The principal crop in Eastern Yunnan was peas, but it was not comparable with the Ssuchuan crop, or even with that of Kueichow.\n\nTwo days from Chiang-ti brought us to Loping (39 miles), over bare rough country of red and very stony earth. At Loping Mr. Chan requested me to travel direct to Yunnan-fu, suggesting that from Yunnan-fu we could take the train and do the journey to Hokow comfortably in two days. He stated that he did not like the hardships and inconvenience of travel in the interior of China. I told him that I did not propose to go to Yunnan-fu, where a British consular officer was permanently stationed; and that on no account would I travel by train on such a journey of inspection. Mr. Chan, however, never ceased for several days harping on the comforts of train-travel as compared with our rough paths and tracks.\n\nFor the next five days, from Loping to Mi-le (82 miles), the country was rough and mountainous, being at the altitude of 5,000-6,000 feet above sea-level. Yunnan is notorious for its strong winds, and it well preserved its reputation during my visit. Even in the middle of the day, wearing thick clothes and a heavy winter overcoat, I was barely comfortably warm. The \"road\" led through undulating plateaux, sometimes as much as 5 miles wide, and over mountain passes; the hill country is rocky and uncultivated. The high winds bring much dust. General conditions are thus antagonistic to agriculture in that part of Eastern Yunnan, and the attenuated crops of peas and barley testified to the farmers' difficulties. Population is very sparse; in the hill districts there are a considerable number of people of the Lolo tribe.\n\nOn leaving me at the border of his jurisdiction the Lo-ping magistrate enquired with much anxiety if I had observed any opium poppy within his jurisdiction; and he vowed that to the best of his knowledge and belief there was not a single opium plant in his territory. I replied that I was aware that local officials had shown much zeal this spring in destroying all vestiges of the opium crop.\n\nThe general poverty of the highland districts was reflected in even the official buildings. The Shih-tsung magistrate offered me quarters for the night in his own yamên; the room he offered me was as good as any in the building, but even so it was in a tumbledown condition, with large holes in the roof, which also did duty as ceiling to the room.\n\nIn the environs of Kuang-hsi, a town of some 5,750 feet of height above sea-level, and of about 2,500 inhabitants, it was a pleasing change to see extensive patches of vegetable gardens. They were quite the healthiest-looking crops I had seen in Yunnan. The soil hereabouts looked less poor, being more brown than red, the reddish soil being chiefly of a sandy consistency.\n\nFrom Mi-le there was difficulty about route, the only recognised road going westwards to Po-hsi on the Yunnan-Tonquin railway, and the direction in which I desired to proceed being to the south-east. Local enquiry elicited information that there were rough tracks to the south-east, but they were very rarely used, and only a very few of the natives knew their way to them. I maintained that the local officials must know, or must be able to ascertain without difficulty, the routes in any direction in their own jurisdiction, and I suggested that the local officials should provide us with responsible guides. My immediate objective was Ch'iu-pei, a fairly large town, which appeared from the map to be about five or six days' march from Mi-le. Mr. Chan offered to obtain a sketch-map of the route, and he handed me a route plan, showing five stages to Ch'iu-pei. This I agreed to follow. On the second day we reached a village, Kai-tien, when Mr. Chan coolly informed me that his plan was incorrect, and that we were now only 10 miles from Ami-chow, a town on the railway; furthermore, that the only road from Kai-tien went to Ami-chow. I was highly incensed at this impudent deception, and insisted that I would attempt to find a direct route eastwards to Chiu-pei. With some difficulty an inferior military officer was discovered who said he knew a track to the eastward. Next morning, however, all the bearers and coolies went on strike, saying that I was taking them into wild parts of the country, where they could get no food and where they would contract fever and die. With persuasion and argument, however, the majority of them yielded, the places of the few who refused to yield being filled by local men.\n\nAfter travelling for half a day over rough hills, inhabited here and there by Lolo charcoal-burners, we came to an impasse - a long steep descent, impossible for baggage, chairs, or animals, with a river in the valley below and a difficult, if not impossible, ascent on the far side. I clambered ahead to satisfy myself that there was no way through, and after careful examination I decided to order a retreat. Mr. Chan was obviously pleased, and said that no doubt now I would overcome my prejudice to the railway, as the road to Ami-chow was the only route left for us. But I again disappointed him by telling him that I proposed to go back one day's march and try eastwards again. So we returned the following day to Chu-yuan, and thence I was more successful and reached Chiu-pei in four days' stages, in spite of much opposition.\n\nThe road to Ch'iu-pei was the highest part of my journey in Yunnan. At Huang-li-hai-so, a small village, in which we put up for the night, two stages before reaching Chiu-pei, the altitude above sea-level was 6,810 feet. Villages were not frequent along this route, and the majority were inhabited by Lolo savages, who cultivated the land in the immediate vicinity of the villages, but left the steep hill-sides and the rest of the country in a state of original wildness.\n\nAt Ch'iu-pei, Taoyin Ho, of Mengtzu, met me and travelled with me for the remaining eleven days to Hokow (198 miles). His health was far from good, and he travelled huddled up in his chair, complaining of the hardships of travel and of the weather, which was far from propitious, the heavy rains being just at the commencement of their season. He also pressed me to go to Mengtzu, there to take the train for the rest of the journey. He expressed himself anxious on my behalf because of the bands of brigands which infested the south-east corner of the province, and pointed out that if I did not tell him my route in detail, he could not clear the brigands away before our arrival; but I suggested that it would be far better to take the brigands quite unawares and to capture the whole band with the aid of our brave escort.\n\nFrom Chiu-pei to Kaihua (63 miles) the country was rough and mountainous. The principal cultivation in this district is an astringent root, the local name of which is \"Three-Seven,\" from the fact that the root is only useful for commercial purposes between its third and its seventh years. It is cultivated in large covered enclosures, and much care is given to its cultivation, dogs and cats being kept within the enclosures to keep down rats and other vermin which find the san-ch'i good to eat.\n\nAt Chiang-na, one stage before Kaihua, I was unfortunate in missing by half a day only, Mr. F. Brown, of the Carnegie Terrestrial Magnetism Mission. Mr. Brown had travelled much in Yunnan this spring, and was then on his way from Bhamo to Canton, viâ Ssumo, Mengtzu, Kaihua, Pose. Mr. Brown's route lay from west to east. I later received a letter from Mr. Brown, informing me that ...",

The District Watchmen Committee met on 12 occasions the average attendance being 12. The loyal advice and assistance of this important Committee (which deals with every kind of question affecting the Chinese Community) continues to be of the greatest value to the Government.\n\nSir Boshan Wei Yuk was appointed adviser (Ko Man).\n\n33. Messrs Tong Lai-chan and Chau Siu-ki's terms of 5 years expired and they were reappointed by His Excellency the Governor for a further period of 5 years.\n\nThe two vacancies caused by the resignation of Mr. Chan Lok-chun and the death of Mr. Chan Kai-ming were filled by the appointment of Messrs.

        "content_text": "The head of the Mixed Commission was Mons. Tripier, Counsellor of the French Legation at Peking, Britain was represented by Mr. Vereker, First Secretary of H.M. Legation at Peking, and America, Japan, Belgium and Italy were represented respectively by Messrs. G. Greene, Shigemitsu, Ullens de Schooten and Mendola.\n\nThe Report blamed:—\n\n(1) The British Police Officer who ordered the Police to fire on the strikers.\n\n(2) The British Chief of Police, Colonel MacEwan, who did not take command on account of absence.\n\n(3) The American Chairman of the Shanghai Municipal Council, Mr. Fessenden, held to be legally responsible.\n\nThe leakage of the contents of the Report caused great indignation among the British and Americans at Shanghai, and, correspondingly, encouraged the Chinese nationalists in their demands for redress.\n\nThe Shanghai authorities, however, were able to persuade Chamberlain to suppress this report. Fortunately, accounts appeared in the French Press and the evidence which was published in the Chinese Press has also reached this country.\n\nIt is extremely improbable that America will ever allow the indiscriminate bombing of Canton or Shanghai, as the local British merchants and some missionaries urge, and as the Admiralty, with the \"Hermes,\" is prepared to do.\n\nMore and more it is being realised throughout the world that Britain, isolated and alone, is arraigned before the bar of humanity on the charge of manslaughter in the Chinese Amritsars of Shanghai, Hankow and Canton.\n\nThe hopes of the imperialists are now turning to new channels; to diplomatic methods, International Conferences, carefully stage-managed, magnificent resolutions and promises, which are never kept.\n\nIntervention on a grand scale such as the Allies undertook after the Boxer uprising is hardly thinkable. They cannot again march on Peking and sack the palaces. Not only would America never tolerate it, but there is a fundamental difference in the situation. In those days Russia was on the side of England and France; now Russia is the best friend of China and the Russian Ambassador is doyen of the Diplomatic Corps at Peking.\n\nPage 6\n\nRather do the Great Powers pray that Chang Tso Lin, the War Lord of Mukden, will once more play the game of the foreign imperialists. Half a century ago the foreign Powers helped the effete and reactionary Manchus to crush the Taiping Rebellion; and now for a dozen years they have backed and supported the forces of reaction in China. The Re-organisation Loan of 1913 provided Yuan Shih-Kai with millions, which turned him into a military despot, and enabled him to build up a huge army in the North and crush the growing germ of democracy in the South. Later, in the struggle between Wu Pei Fu and Sun Yat Sen, the Powers supported and recognised Wu Pei Fu, while the powerful clique controlling the news from Peking did propaganda against Dr. Sun Yat Sen; and the Chinese subject to British rule in Hongkong were prevented by the Consortium Pact from giving financial aid to Dr. Sun Yat Sen.\n\nAnd when Peking was at its wits' end seeking funds, Chang Tso Lin still had his group of Manchurian banks which could provide him with 50,000,000 dollars when necessary. The Manchurian banks are the Japanese Bank of Chosen, the French Banque Industrielle de Chine at Mukden, and the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank at Harbin. In the last month British agents have had frequent discussions with Chang Tso Lin.\n\nIn the South, Great Britain armed and organised the Anti-Sun Party in Canton, Chan Lim-pak, the compradore of the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank at Canton, established a Merchant Volunteer Force, which aimed at overthrowing Sun Yat Sen.\n\nSun Yat Sen protested to the League of Nations and to MacDonald, then Prime Minister and Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, but without avail, without even acknowledgment.\n\nRecently documents found on the premises of the general staff of the Yunnanese troops in Canton revealed the existence of a wide-spread plot for the overthrow of the Kuomintang Government and the establishment of a reactionary dictatorship dependent on British and Japanese support. The Commander-in-Chief of the Yunnanese troops in Canton, Yang Shih Ming, escaped on an English boat after the defeat of his army by the Kuomintang troops, and was taken to Hongkong—the centre of counter-revolutionary intrigue.\n\nPage 7\n\n526",

W. Kew went into the accounts at considerable length, punctuating his questions with sarcasm and comment. Another shareholder, Mr. F. S. Harrison, also joined in. Mr. A. H. Rowe, managing director, gave most of the replies while Mr. H. Birkett (chairman) also answered Mr. Kew.\n\nBesides those mentioned, there were present Messrs. Sum Pak-ming, T. N. Chau (directors) and H. M. Kew, A. Nissim, C. A. Fulcher (shareholders).\n\nLast Year's Features.\n\nThe outstanding items in the report for the year ended April 30, 1926, are:-\n\n11 lakhs depreciation written off in 26 months.\n\n$40,000 profit last year instead of $46,000 loss, as result of farming out the fleet of taxis.\n\nConcessions obtained from the International and French settlements, Shanghai: 50 taxis will be sent up from Hongkong.\n\n...\n\nMr. Birkett observed that $15,000 for salaries and wages was not a big item for twelve months. Mr. Kew - \"No, when you say it slowly.\"\n\nIn Deep Water?\n\nMr. Kew said, \"The best course, take it from me, is to wind up before further trouble. This is a one man show, run for the benefit of Mr. Rowe.\"\n\nOn being accosted by a constable at Reclamation Street on Saturday night, a Chinese dropped a sack he was carrying and escaped. The sack contained eight revolvers and 800 rounds of ammunition.\n\n[No. 2995. July 22, 1926.\n\nCOMING HERE.\n\nJuly 19.\n\nThe Hongkong office of the Asiatic Petroleum Company have received information that the Marchese de Pinedo is shortly commencing a new flight from Pisa, Italy.\n\nIt will be remembered that Pinedo passed through Hongkong last October during his flight from Rome to Australia and Japan and back to Italy.\n\nFor his new flight Pinedo intends to use a seaplane and his route will cover 60,000 miles, as follows: From Pisa across Spain to Lisbon, thence by way of the Azores to Newfoundland and New York; from New York he will fly to Seattle and down the coast to San Diego and thence across country to New Orleans. From New Orleans he will pass through the West Indies to British Guiana, and strike inland across Brazil to Rio de Janeiro and on to Buenos Aires, and across the Andes to Valparaiso.\n\nHis route afterward will be as follows: Easter Island, Mangareva, Tahiti, Samoa, Fiji Islands to New Caledonia, New Zealand and Australia. Afterwards he will touch at various points in the Dutch East Indies, Manila and North China, flying inland to Hankow and still inland to Saigon in French Indo-China. The remainder of his route covers Rangoon, Calcutta, Ceylon, Chagos Islands, Seychelles, Mauritius to Beira, then round the coast of South Africa as far as Boma to the Belgian Congo; he will then strike inland to Tanganyika, and flying through Uganda and up the Nile to Cairo, along the coast to Tripoli and back across the Mediterranean to Pisa.\n\nThe Marchese de Pinedo expects to arrive in Hongkong early in November on the return part of his flight.\n\nAt the request of the Marchese, the \"Shell\" organisation are making all the necessary fuel arrangements for the entire flight. \"Shell\" aviation spirit is again chosen on account of the excellent result obtained during his last flight when 34,000 miles were covered without the slightest mishap.\n\nMOTOR MISHAP.\n\nJuly 19.\n\nMr. R. M. Johnson, of 17 Humphrey's Buildings, Kowloon, reports that while driving a motor car along Castle Peak Road on Saturday in the direction of Tsim Sha Tsui, a woman ran from the hillside and was caught by the fender, sustaining minor injuries.

It is a new set of State insurance laws, operating on July 1, and is killing every ... but the working ... is 31. For instance, a gardener, for whom one paid 18s. per annum insurance against accident in the past, has now to be paid £5; a man employed in a brewery, formerly 13s. 6d. per annum, now 78s. 9d.; bakers, similar trades, and so on, and milk carters from 40s. to 140s.; a miner from £10 to £50; and there are hundreds and hundreds, close to a thousand, all taxable. If I can get a paper (I have to keep the one I have) will send it to you. It is really unbelievable.\n\n\"The Insurance Companies will reap a harvest and I don't own one share in them. Just imagine, say, in Farmer & Co., something like 1,000 hands employed, having to pay 48s. 9d. instead of 10s. per head, and I see in the list that domestic servants have to be insured at 52s. 6d. a head, instead of 5s. Every trade, musicians included, are in the list. A boy who delivers newspapers costs his employer 70s. instead of 12s. a year.

        "content_text": "CANTON NEWS.\n\nBoycott Parley.\n\nJuly 15.\n\nIn the brief space of time, it is only to be expected that no communiqué has come down from Canton when this edition went to press regarding the opening of the conference to settle the boycott of Hongkong.\n\nOVERLAND CHINA MAIL\n\nJuly 17.\n\nUntil what are best described as Canton's \"terms\" are revealed, a prediction as to the prospects of the peace conference can be no more than guesswork, but several important features have become evident.\n\nThe so-called Labour representatives, and the Strike Executive are asking, if not pressing, for the terms to be broadcasted in Canton prior to submission to the conference.\n\nAnother straw in the wind, which may mean much or nothing, is the change in the delegation.\n\nWriting on Tuesday evening (before the Hon. Mr. J. H. Kemp and the Hon. Mr. E. R. Hallifax arrived there yesterday as reported in the \"China Mail\"), Mr. Koo Mang-yu substituted Mr. Chan Kung-pok.\n\nAt the last minute, the \"China Mail\" correspondent indicated that today's proceedings may be restricted to the formal exchange of courtesies and credentials, after which an adjournment was expected.\n\nIt was anticipated that before discussing any terms, the delegates of both sides will endeavour to arrive at a basis of understanding as to what will come up and when, for discussion.\n\nMr. Koo is believed to have been fully instructed by General Chang Kai-shek.\n\nIn some sources, continues the correspondent, some importance is attached to Mr. Koo's joining the official delegation of Canton.\n\nBy virtue of Mr. Koo's position in the Canton Government, his close association with General Chang Kai-shek (commander-in-chief), and a report that Mr. Koo is said to be General Chang's special choice, native malcontents place considerable significance on his joining the delegation.\n\nCurrent opinion is that General Chang Kai-shek will ask Mr. Eugene Chen to effect a settlement, but that there may be a delay owing to the necessity of \"demobilising\" the strikers and pickets.\n\nCanton, June 14. Mr. Chan Kung-pok, by reason of his being engaged on General Chang Kai-shek's staff at the Northern Front, will not be one of the Canton official delegates in the boycott negotiations. His place will be taken by Mr. Koo Mang-yue, who will act with Mr. Eugene Chen and Mr. T. V. Soong.--\"Wah Tze Yat Po.\"\n\nReports from Canton are that formal proceedings began yesterday at noon when credentials were exchanged.\n\nIt is expected that full talk will be gone into today, so that detailed schemes may be presented tomorrow.\n\nFirst of all, the Strike Executive is stated to have asked Mr. Eugene Chen to announce what terms the Government will tabulate.\n\nThen when the report was current that Mr. Koo was framing the terms, they made another request for information to be given before the terms were finally approved and handed over to the Hongkong official delegation for consideration.\n\n\"The Next Step.\"\n\nA telegram to the \"Wah Tze Yat Po\" states that the agenda has been decided upon, and that both military and police are guarding the conference chamber (in the Foreign Office).\n\nIt is known that the conference sat again at 10:30 a.m. yesterday. But it is not known definitely if the terms will be presented this week or next.\n\nMr. Eugene Chen's opening address is given elsewhere in this issue.\n\nOpinion now is that the nature of the terms will be disclosed in a day or two, and the respective delegates will ascertain if such can be made to form a basis of discussion.\n\nThis preliminary over, the next step will be the actual negotiation of the \"terms.\"\n\nCANTON PROTEST.\n\n[No. 2998. July 22, 1926.\n\nJuly 17.\n\nNone is blind to see that the present phantom government in Peking is a creation of a brace of medieval militarists and a bunch of Mandarin states-boys and states-coolies whose obvious purpose is to grab the proceeds of whatever tariff doles and loans that America and the other Powers may be willing to grant in order to maintain a status quo that conflicts with every vital interest of Nationalist China.\n\nCanton, July 14.\n\nSir, I have the honour to request you to communicate to the American Minister at Peking the protest of my Government against the resumption of the Special Tariff Conference which was lately suspended owing to the dispersal of the Chinese delegation.\n\nWe are definitely and reliably informed that agents of Wu Pei-fu and Chang Tso-lin are now negotiating with the American and the other foreign delegates for the immediate reopening of the Conference.\n\nMy Government opposes and has opposed the Conference because it involves the consideration of issues which only a Central Government, representative and competent to speak and act in the name of the Chinese Nation, can negotiate in conference with the official representatives of the American and other interested Governments.\n\nAny payment of tariff moneys to Wu Pei-fu and Chang Tso-lin must necessarily mean that America and the other interested Powers--through the machinery of the unified, British-controlled Chinese Maritime Customs--will be (a) paying national revenues collected throughout the whole of China to two transient usurpers of detached pieces of Chinese territory, and (b) subsidising these two militarists to continue the prosecution of civil war against the Kuominchun and Canton who are the two modern arms of Nationalist China, and thus assist militarism to dominate and flourish in China.\n\nI have to add that any loan or loans to be contracted by the agents of Wu and Chang on the security of the promised surtaxes shall not be recognised by the Nationalist Government.\n\nAnd I have the honour deliberately to warn America and the other interested governments that Chinese repudiation of any such loan or loans may conceivably create a situation rendering it imperative for the principle of repudiation to be extended to other loans contracted in the interests of reaction and militarists and mandarin exploitation and plunder.\n\nJuly 19.\n\nTo Senator Borah at Washington, Mr. Eugene Chen (acting Foreign Minister at Canton) has addressed a message on the question of the projected resumption of the Tariff Conference.\n\nMr. Chen informs Senator Borah that he has protested to the U.S. Minister to China through Mr. Douglas Jenkins (Consul at Canton), as published in the \"China Mail\" on Saturday.\n\nThe subject matter is similar to that in the despatch to Mr. Jenkins.\n\nBut to Senator Borah, Mr. Chen says: \"I bring this to your attention because you are known among us as an American leader who is entirely opposed to the subordination of real American interest to the competitive interests of other Powers in China.\"\n\nReticence is being kept by official sources.\n\nThere is a feeling of confidence and it is said that General Chang is of the view that he can leave for the Front in a week.\n\nOwing to the difficulty in communications with Canton, news will necessarily be slow in getting through to Hongkong.\n\nThe best sign so far is the absence of any pessimistic rumours.\n\nHOME INTEREST.\n\nBOYCOTT NEGOTIATIONS IN CANTON.\n\nCOMMONS INFORMED.\n\nRugby, July 14.\n\nSir Austen Chamberlain stated in the House of Commons that the opening of the negotiations for ending the trade boycott of Hongkong had been fixed for July 15.--British Wireless Service.\n\n[Whilst this information has appeared long ago in the local Press, the cable is given as evidence of the interest being taken at Home in the negotiations opening today in Canton.]\n\nTHE BOYCOTT.\n\nCHANGE IN CANTON'S DELEGATES.\n\nGOVERNMENT'S OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUE.\n\nJuly 16.\n\nHis Excellency has authorised a communiqué to the effect that Mr. Koo Mang-yu has been appointed as one of the Canton Delegates in place of Mr. Chan Kung-pok; also that the conference opened at noon yesterday when only formal business was transacted.\n\nThe conference will resume today.\n\nIt is understood that Mr. Koo Mang-yu, who was formerly Dean of the Peking University, is a Member of the Central Executive Committee of the Kwok Min Tong.\n\nTHE BOYCOTT.\n\nIt is manifest that striking and real changes are taking place in this country, socially, economically, and politically.\n\nThese changes, generally, are a necessary consequence of the structural readjustment or new equilibrium which is in process of establishment, consequent upon the definite inclusion of China in the larger system of the modern world.\n\nWhether these changes are good or bad for the Chinese people is mainly a question for them to decide if they are truly to be regarded and treated as an independent nation and not as a people suited for the exercise of international tutelage.\n\nAt any rate, it is a fundamental thesis of the Chinese Nationalist Movement--which is the greatest of the forces underlying and sustaining the boycott--that the Chinese people must be free to work out their own salvation.\n\nCanton, July 16, 1926.\n\nThe following communiqué has been jointly issued by the British and Chinese Delegations negotiating a settlement of the Chinese-British disputes in Liang Kuang:\n\n\"The Conference resumed its sittings today at 10:30 a.m. when the Chinese Delegation stated their views on the origin of the British boycott.\n\nThey refrained from formulating any conditions of settlement pending a reply to their statement.\n\nThe Conference has adjourned till Monday, July 19.\"\n\nWe believe that this statement of what is called the Chinese Question is not in fundamental opposition to the real interests of any genuinely trading Power in China.\n\nCanton, July 19.\n\nThis morning, the full Canton and Hongkong delegations resumed the conference at the Foreign Office.\n\nThe Hongkong delegates replied to Canton's official view as to the cause of the anti-British boycott.\n\nThe nature of such reply (or, in other words, Hongkong's statement of the position) was divulged.\n\nNote: An official communiqué issued on Saturday stated that Canton refrained from formulating any conditions of settlement pending a reply to their statement on the origin.\n\nBOY THIEVES.\n\nJuly 21.\n\nIn the possession of three boys were found more than twenty-five pawn tickets relating to stolen clothes.\n\nOn investigation, the police found that the boys had not been induced to commit the thefts by an elder man, who acted as receiver and pawned the articles.\n\nMr. Eugene Chen has instructed the Bureau of Information, Foreign Ministry, to publish details of the negotiations, so that rumours may be spread.\n\nIf this view of the matter be sound, then more considerations of prestige and what is known as the conference \"face\" ought not to be allowed to bar the road to a practical settlement of what is in truth one of the practical questions oft-times puzzled by the ironic spirit in history to search out man's patience, his goodwill, and his good sense.\n\nCanton, July 18.\n\nThe Strike Executive Committee has petitioned for the despatch of their delegates to attend, as spectators, the Boycott Conference, but it is not known how Mr. Eugene Chen has replied.\n\nThe Negotiations for the settlement of the anti-British boycott opened at noon today at the Canton Foreign Office.\n\nAll the members of the Chinese and the British Delegations were present.\n\nMr. Eugene Chen, Acting Minister for Foreign Affairs, who is head of the Chinese delegation, opened the proceedings with a speech.\n\nOnly three owners of the stolen articles had so far been traced.\n\nThe result was that four were charged with theft this morning before Mr. R. E. Lindsell at the Central Magistracy.\n\nThe boys pleaded guilty, but the elder man denied the allegation that he had used the boys for committing thefts, saying that he found the articles lying on the floor of his house and pawned them.\n\nThis story was not believed by the Magistrate, who sentenced him to four months' hard labour.\n\nOne of the three boys had a previous conviction for theft and he was ordered twelve strokes with a cane.\n\nThe others received eight strokes each.",

This suddenly threw the frontiers of Fukien and Kiangsi into a state of excitement. Some days ago Tang of Kiangsi sent his representative Lau Kai Yuen to make arrangements with Chau Yam Yan in Fukien for an alliance, and Chau, being also very uneasy, sent in return his representative Lau Yuk Lung to Kiangsi to take part in a discussion. But Fukien could find no means to meet the military expenses for an allied defence, and though these only amount to $50,000 a month, they in the present financial difficulties, still find it a hard task to raise them. Tan Tsun Tsui, Commissioner of Finance, has had a dispute with Shat over the reinstatement of the Bank of Pukian.

The position in and around Peking appears to be such that the so-called Chief Executive is wholly without power; and no matter what form of Government may be set up at Peking as a result of the conflicts now in progress between the various war lords in the north, it seems certain that the present Canton Government will refuse to recognise its authority.\n\n3. In Shanghai and the provinces at the mouth of the Yang-tsze Marshal Sun Chuan-fang appears at present to be the dominant power, and he is, I am told, at the head of a well-drilled and well-equipped army of about 60,000 men. I have been informed that Marshal Sun is a native of Fukien Province; that he has been much incensed by the advance of the Cantonese Red army under General Cheung Kai-shek north of Swatow to the frontier of the Fukien Province; that he is a determined enemy of the Russian Bolshevik influence in China; that he, like Admiral Li, regards the present de facto Government of Canton as a rebel Government, and that he has expressed his intention of marching southward through Fukien into Kuang-tung in order to overthrow the present Cantonese Soviet Administration. I am endeavouring to test the accuracy of this information, but my impression is that no real help can be expected from Marshal Sun as regards Cantonese affairs for a considerable time, if at all.\n\n4. The position at Canton itself is not yet very clear to me. There is no doubt that the present de facto Government is a Soviet of the Russian type with Mr. Wong Tsing-wai as Chairman and Dr. C. C. Wu (a son of the late Mr. Wu Ting-fang) as its principal foreign adviser, while Mr. Sung Tsz-man is in control of financial affairs. I doubt whether any of these three could properly be described as \"Red,\" but they have certainly been under Russian influence; they have been financed with Russian money; Russian military officers have trained their troops, and munitions of war have been supplied to them from Russia vià Vladivostok. Members of the Canton Soviet, namely, Mr. Chan Kung-pok and Mr. Tam Peng-shan. At least two are undoubtedly \"Red\"; and so was Mr. Liu Chung-hoi, who has recently been assassinated. The forces of the Canton Government are mainly under the command of General Cheung Kai-shek, who is said to be a professional soldier and not a politician. I can get no reliable information concerning him, and I do not know how far he is under Bolshevik influence. His troops have certainly been drilled and equipped by Russians.\n\n5. As regards the Russians themselves, there is again no reliable evidence, but I believe the truth to be that they do not exceed 200 in number and may even be as few as 50, and that both their numbers and their influence have of late been steadily decreasing. Admiral Basire, who commands the French fleet on this station, told me recently on the authority of the French consul at Canton that a Russian officer recently had a dispute with a Chinese officer in Canton; that in the course of the altercation the Russian put his hand on the Chinaman's shoulder; that the Chinaman thereupon whipped out a revolver and shot the Russian dead; that Borodiu, who is the head of the Bolshevik Mission in Canton, so far from feeling himself strong enough to protest against this act, had been obliged to ignore it. I incline to believe that the Chinese are already heartily sick of their Russian advisers, and would be thankful to get rid of them. I may say in this connection that shortly after my arrival I received through Sir James Jamieson a formal despatch from the Canton Government dated the 2nd November requesting me to expel from Hong Kong Mr. Chan Kwing-ming and Mr. Ngai Pong-peng, who are the avowed enemies of the present Canton Soviet. I replied on the 12th November pointing out that it was the traditional policy of the Hong Kong Government to prevent this colony from being used for political intrigue against the Chinese Government; that I should steadfastly adhere to that policy and expel any who evade it; but that I must first be satisfied that the Canton authorities will reciprocate by refusing to allow the Kuang-tung Province to be used as a base for political intrigue against this colony, and that I should regard the expulsion of the Russian Bolshevik emissaries now in Canton as a proof that the Canton Government is in earnest in this matter. I attach copies of these two letters.* No further communication on this subject has been received by me from the Canton Government.\n\n6. In consequence of the present anti-British boycott in Canton, I found that prior to my arrival practically all communication both between this Government and the British consul-general at Canton and also between the British consul-general at Canton and the de facto Government at Canton had been suspended. Sir James Jamieson and Sir Edward Stubbs had not met each other since the outbreak of the trouble in June last, nor had Sir James Jamieson left the Shameen and entered the Chinese city to visit any Cantonese officials since that date. Sir James, in fact, wrote to me that it would be unhealthy for him to do so in view of the fact that he was on the list for assassination. I at once invited Sir James to visit me in Hong Kong, and he was with me at Government House from the 11th to the 19th November. As a result of my conversations with him, it became evident to me that negotiations with the Canton Government could not be carried on by him, and that if such negotiations were to take place I must myself get into direct personal touch with the officers of the de facto Government in Canton.\n\n7. As a first step I made a speech at the Hong Kong University on the 11th November, which was in effect an offer of friendship to the Canton Government and a suggestion that we should let byegones be byegones, end the boycott, and resume the old amicable relations between Hong Kong and Canton. I attach a copy of this speech.* My next step was to write on the 24th November to Dr. C. C. Wu inviting him to pay me a visit. He replied on the 26th November that it was impossible for him to leave Canton, but that he hoped I might be able to visit him there. I attach a copy of his reply.*\n\nMeanwhile there had been a certain fraternisation between Cantonese merchants and the Chinese merchants of Hong Kong. A delegation of Cantonese merchants visited Hong Kong on the 20th November and remained here until the 25th November. During that time they were entertained by the Chinese merchants of this colony, by the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce, and also by Mr. A. G. M. Fletcher, the Acting Colonial Secretary, whom I authorised to receive them at tea. The result of this visit was to show very clearly that the Cantonese merchants were as anxious as the Hong Kong merchants to see the end of the boycott; and, although they were not empowered to negotiate any settlement, I took advantage of the occasion of their visit to announce that the Hong Kong Government would be willing to appoint a strong deputation of merchants to visit Canton and to negotiate a settlement provided that the Canton Government would appoint suitable delegates to meet them. The names I mentioned were those of Sir Paul Chater, Messrs. Chow Shou-sen and Kotewall (Chinese members of the Legislative Council), and Mr. D. G. M. Bernard, the head of Messrs. Jardine, Matheson and Co. These names were given to Dr. S. W. Tso, a prominent member of the Chinese community of Hong Kong, for communication to Dr. C. C. Wu, to whom he is related. Dr. Tso returned with the unsatisfactory reply that (a) the strikers would elect three members of their committee to be delegates with full powers to negotiate, one of them almost certainly being the chairman of the Strike Committee; (b) the merchants would also elect one prominent merchant to be a member of the delegation, this would most probably be the chairman of the Canton General Chamber of Commerce; (c) other members of the Strike Committee, probably six, and perhaps one or two additional merchants would be present at the negotiations to watch the proceedings; and (d) that Mr. Luk King-fo, a minor Cantonese official, could be attached to the Canton delegation as secretary. It would obviously have served no useful purpose to send the influential Hong Kong delegates, whom I had named, up to Canton to negotiate a settlement with men such as these, and I therefore cast about for means of starting negotiations upon other lines.\n\n8. On the 2nd December I was informed that Mr. Yeung Sai-ngam, a semi-official emissary of the Canton Government, was anxious to see me. I agreed to see him and he came informally to visit me at Government House that afternoon, explained to him verbally that the Hong Kong Government was absolutely sincere in its wish for a settlement of the present trouble with Canton, but that it would be useless for me to send a deputation to Canton for the purpose of negotiating a settlement unless the Canton Government appointed delegates of equal standing. I also gave him a personal letter for delivery to Mr. Wong Tsing-wai, presenting him my compliments and informing him that I had had an interesting conversation that day with Mr. Yeung Sai-ngam. This letter was intended to serve as a credential. On the 8th December Mr. Yeung Sai-ngam returned to Hong Kong and brought me a Chinese letter of a complimentary nature in the handwriting of Mr. Wong Tsing-wai and also the draft in Chinese of a letter which it was proposed\n\n• Not printed.\n\n57",

It was later reported on fairly good authority that this commander succeeded in rounding up many of the pirates and recovering most of the silver bars stolen, but the pirates were released on payment of a large sum and the silver bars were appropriated by his troops. However, another expedition was later sent under the orders of General Hung Siu Lun with Commander Wong Fuk Chi in command. The latter corroborated the statement above regarding Yung Fai Ting, and further stated that the silver had been melted down and made into silver coins. In February 1925 Commander Wong Fuk Chi succeeded in effecting the arrest of one Sun Mau at Tai Pung. This man admitted participation in this piracy, and stated that Lam Tsoi Sau (a notorious pirate), a Hakka, a native of Cheung Pai village in Fan Lo Kong district, was the leader in this piracy. He also gave the names of several of his confederates. His story was to the effect that the pirates went to Shanghai viâ Hong Kong in a B. and S. steamer. He stayed with others at the Hung On Boarding House in Hong Kong before leaving for Shanghai (this statement was verified and found to be true). The arms were purchased in Shanghai. Eighteen men accompanied him via Sha Yu Chung to Hong Kong. His share of the loot was 40 pieces of silver, 40 dollars in one dollar coins and some serge clothing. The pirates known to him came from the Bias Bay area. There were several other pirates unknown to him in this gang. This ship did not come under the Hong Kong Piracy Prevention Ordinance.\n\n10. Steamship Hong Hwa.\"-Ho Hong Steamship Company, of Singapore. Running between Rangoon, Penang, Singapore, Hong Kong, Swatow and Amoy. Was pirated six days out from Singapore in latitude 14° 53′ N., longitude 110° 24′ E., on the 13th January, 1925, at 8:40 A.M., while on a voyage from Singapore to Hong Kong. She was carrying 357 passengers. The pirates, numbering about 30 (armed with revolvers) took the ship to Tsang Chau Island, Bias Bay, and left the ship in the ship's boats, taking with them money, jewellery and clothing to the value of $53,360. From information received it would appear that the pirates came mostly from Nim Shan or Fan Lo Kong and travelled to Singapore, where they procured arms and boarded the ship as passengers. The leader of this gang is said to be a man named Lo Ah Chiu, a native of Fan Lo Kong. The ship carried wireless, which was immediately put out of action by the pirates. Hakka and Hoklo were mostly spoken by the pirates, but some spoke Fukien and a few Punti. This ship did not come under the Hong Kong Piracy Prevention Ordinance. At the time this piracy was committed, General Hung Shiu Lun and Commander Wong Fuk Chi happened to be in Hong Kong. On the suggestion of the Captain Superintendent of Police an expedition was organised consisting of members of the navy, army and police in Hong Kong and headed by Commander Wong Fuk Chi. The party left for Ha Chung, Bias Bay, in a naval tug, where a party of some 120 of Wong Fuk Chi's soldiers were embarked and taken to Fan Lo Kong Bay. A landing was effected and raids were made on Kwai Chau, Hai Chau, Nim Shan and Fan Lo Kong. The police were present at these raids. As a result, sixteen men were arrested. They were in possession of various articles of property obviously illegally obtained. Some Singapore money was also found. The sixteen men were sent to Waichau for trial, and some of the houses occupied by them were burnt, but twelve of these were released after enquiry.

At Fan Lo Kong a man in one of the houses raided fired on the troops who had come to search. This man was summarily shot. He was in possession of a revolver and an automatic. He turned out to be a man called Chan Shui Wai, alias Yeung Ah In, a well-known robber and pirate.\n\nGeneral.\n\nIn dealing with the Bias Bay pirates, it has always been very difficult to get reliable information as to the identity of the pirates concerned, possibly because the whole area is more or less infested with pirates and their families, who appear to be still able to keep their movements a secret. There are undoubtedly many gangs operating (there are three well-known gangs), but these gangs are split up into sections under sub-leaders, who each recruit a certain number of men when it is decided that a piracy is to be committed. In this way it often happens that a member of a gang only knows his sub-leader and a few of the men with whom he is operating. This is an added difficulty in securing reliable information. With the possible exception of Commander Wong Fuk Chi, the Chinese authorities who have hitherto been entrusted with the suppression of piracy have made little or no attempt to clear this area; in fact, it is strongly suspected that the military have on more than one occasion acted in collusion with the pirates (many of whom have seen military service), and have been friendly disposed towards them. Effective co-operation has therefore been impossible. The most noted pirate nests in this area are: Nim Shan, Fan Lo Kong, Hai Chau, Kwai Chau, Cheung Pai, Ha Chung and Tai Pung City.\n\n(Signed) L. H. V. BOOTH,\n\nAssistant Director of Criminal Intelligence.\n\nEnclosure No. 3.\n\nRear-Admiral A. J. B. Stirling, Commodore, Hong Kong, to Governor, Hong Kong.\n\nHong Kong, June 24, 1920.\n\nWith reference to the proposals made recently for dealing with piracies which may occur in future in Bias Bay and adjacent Chinese territories, the following are briefly some of the instructions issued by the Admiralty to Naval Officers for dealing with such incidents.\n\nThese regulations apply to piracies on the inland waterways on the coasts of China, as well as on the high seas.\n\n2. Generally, His Majesty's ships may co-operate for the suppression of piracies when so requested by local authorities (through His Britannic Majesty's Consuls), with the exceptions hereafter mentioned :—\n\n(a.) His Majesty's ships are not to be despatched to localities along the coast within Chinese jurisdiction to obtain indemnities for robberies committed, or to secure the release of persons held to ransom. In all such cases local authorities are to be called upon, through His Britannic Majesty's Consul, to take immediate measures for redress, and should the means at their disposal not be sufficient to effect the object in view, the question of co-operation should be decided by the Senior Officer.\n\n(b.) Landing in pursuit of pirates within Chinese jurisdiction is strictly forbidden.\n\n(c.) The landing of armed parties to obtain information is objectionable; the enquiries should be made, when possible, by the Officer in Command.\n\n(d.) Parties are on no account to be landed from His Majesty's ships within Chinese jurisdiction to destroy houses or villages, or even search them, on the grounds of their inhabitants being engaged in acts of piracy. The Chinese officials who accompany His Majesty's ships on these expeditions have no authority to request that such measures should be adopted.\n\n(e.) It will, however, be the duty of Officers in Command to report the information that may reach them of piratical villages and depots, with a view to His Britannic Majesty's Consul calling upon the Chinese authorities to take steps for their suppression, in which case our co-operation may be afforded if solicited through His Britannic Majesty's Consul.\n\n(f) Officers may use force--\n\n(i.) When fired upon.\n\n(ii) When a piracy is actually seen to take place, for the destruction or capture of the pirates.\n\n(iii) To prevent undoubted robbers from making their escape.\n\n3. It will be observed, therefore, that on no account can any officers or men be disembarked in Chinese territory to search for or to attack pirates, and that when pirates are once on shore fire can only be opened on them at the request of Chinese officials through His Britannic Majesty's Consul and in co-operation with Chinese authorities.\n\n4. Under these special circumstances I would recommend that the most effective fire which could be opened from Naval resources in co-operation with Chinese would be salvos of incendiary bombs from aircraft, the object being to burn out the villages.\n\nBefore such action could be taken, however, it would be necessary to receive a request from the Pekin or Canton authorities, through His Britannic Majesty's Minister at Pekin or His Britannic Majesty's Consul-General at Canton, and it would be essential for a number of Chinese officials and troops to be present during the operation.\n\n[15276]\n\nPage 369\n\n1\n\n1",

There is no doubt that the present de facto Government is a Soviet of the Russian type with Mr. Wong Tsing-wai as Chairman and Dr. C.C. Wu (a son of the late Mr. Wu Ting-fang) as its principal foreign adviser, while Mr. Sung Tsz-man is in control of financial affairs. I doubt whether any of these three could properly be described as \"Red\", but they have certainly been under Russian influence; they have been financed with Russian money; Russian military officers have trained their troops, and munitions of war have been supplied to them from Russia via Vladivostock. At least two members of the Canton Soviet, namely Mr. Chan Kung-pok and Mr. Tam Peng-shan are undoubtedly \"Red\" and so was Mr. Liu Chung-hoi, who has recently been assassinated. The forces of the Canton Government are mainly under the command of General Chiang Kai-shek who is said to be a professional soldier and not a politician. I can get no reliable information concerning him, and I do not know how far he is under Bolshevik influence. His troops have certainly been drilled and equipped by Russians.\n\n## 5.\nAs regards the Russians themselves, there is again no reliable evidence, but I believe the truth to be that they do not exceed 200 in number and may even be as few as 50, and that both their numbers and their influence have of late been steadily...",

Informal negotiations are, however, continuing, and in view of the fact that, as the improved cargo returns show, the cargo workers are no longer supporting the Union, the Company are not without hope that more acceptable terms of settlement may be forthcoming.\n\nThe Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation reports a slight general improvement in deliveries of piece-goods and similar cargo for which the neighbouring provinces of China form the market.\n\n3.\n\n4.\n\n39\n\nIt has now apparently been decided by the Political Council of the Kuo-min-tang that its headquarters and the seat of the Nationalist Government shall be removed from Canton to Wuchang. The first party of high officials headed by General Tam Yen Kai, Chairman of that Government, is reported to be leaving Canton for the new capital on the 5th December, and it is to be anticipated that Canton and Kuang-tung generally, with the exception of the military schools and similar establishments belonging to the central organization of the party, will shortly be under the control of a purely provincial administration headed by General Li Chai-sam.\n\n5.\n\nLabour in Canton continues to act in a very high-handed manner. In addition to her picketing of the British river steamers the Seamen's Union has instituted a boycott of the China Merchants' Steam Navigation Company, Limited, a Chinese concern, on the ground that this Company has assisted Marshal Sun Ch'uan-fang in his operations against the Nationalist forces.",

At this distance it is difficult to get at the facts, and you will doubtless have received more reliable information from Hankow, but it may be of interest to record the views which have been expressed to me by Mr. Robert S. Norman, who has recently returned to Canton. Mr. Norman, who is an American, was for many years the legal adviser and close personal friend of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. He has, I understand, always been well disposed towards the British, and did a good deal to allay the excitement aroused in the city immediately after the Shakee shooting affair of June 1925, a fact which was, I believe, acknowledged in despatches by Sir James Jamieson. Mr. Norman is himself a member of the Kuo Min-tang, and, although he holds no official position at the moment, and is in Canton on private business, he is in close touch with General Li Chai-sum and the leading local officials, and is in correspondence with General Chiang Kai-shek, of whom he holds a very high opinion. He told me that General Chiang had had enough of Communist interference with his military plans, and that he was calling a conference of Kuo Min-tang leaders at his headquarters in Nanchang with a view to defining and limiting the position of the Communists in the Nationalist party and getting rid of the Russians. General Li Chai-sum, the real ruler of this province, was, he said, a loyal adherent of Chiang Kai-shek, to whom he referred for instructions in all matters of importance. His chief of staff, Ma Wen-che, had just left for the North to attend the Nanchang Conference. Mr. Norman, who evidently holds a brief for Chiang Kai-shek, appeared to regard him as the only true exponent of Sun Yat-sen's principles, and the sole hope of a moderate Nationalist policy as against the Communist and Russian influence, which had seized control of the party machine.\n\n## 5. \nThe civil officials, such as Eugene Chen, T. V. Soong and Sun Fo, he considered to be mere politicians and time-servers, who knew which side their bread was buttered, and who clung to the Russians because they had no other support or following. He stated that Eugene Chen had more principles than the others and Sun Fo none at all. Sun Fo, he said, had promoted the right wing opposition Kuo Min-tang group in Shanghai at the end of 1925, and had collected funds for the purpose in America. Subsequently he had deserted them for the party in power in Canton. He was wanted by the latter because of his name (he is, of course, the son of the late Sun Yat-sen), but he is regarded with suspicion by his present associates, and has to be ultra-red to atone for his previous disaffection; hence his violent speeches.\n\n## 6. \nThere is a tendency on the part of foreigners to attach political labels to Chinese politicians and to classify them individually as moderate or extremist, right or left, Communist or Conservative, &c., and the same foreigners are constantly being puzzled and disconcerted because the people so labelled do not run true to form. The truth is that the Chinese who now fill the political stage are actuated in their groupings much more by personal attraction or animosity than by political ideals, and are quite ready to be either extreme or moderate as may suit their purpose for the time being. Sun Fo is an unscrupulous wind-bag of this type, and C. C. Wu is another. No more bitter and violent invective has been heaped on the British people during all this anti-foreign campaign than was emitted by C. C. Wu during his tenure of office in Canton, but fortunately he was such a poisonous person to deal with that his own colleagues could stand him no longer, and he was summarily ejected by General Chiang Kai-shek. He fled to Shanghai via Macao, where he has since been intriguing against the Canton Government from the safety of the French concession. He is now entertained as the guest of honour by the Union Club, and impresses the Shanghai community with the sweet reasonableness of his speeches and the moderation with which he sets forth the Nationalist aspirations.\n\n## 7. \nMen like T. V. Soong, the Minister of Finance, and his brother-in-law, H. H. Kung, the newly-appointed Minister of Industry in Canton, have certainly no desire for Communism, if by that is meant class warfare, mob rule and the commandeering of their wealth by the proletariat. They both come of bourgeois stock and are Christian in religion. Soong is said to have feathered his nest pretty well since becoming Finance Minister, and Kung is already a wealthy man from a banking family, whose wife, well known, I believe, to the Diplomatic Body in Peking, has social ambitions and likes entertaining on a large scale.\n\n## 8. \nAs a matter of fact, I am informed confidentially that both these men are siding with General Chiang Kai-shek in the present dispute, but those of their colleagues in the Nationalist party who have fallen foul of their own military are obliged to look elsewhere for support, if they are to continue to exist politically, for they have no personal following of their own. Therefore, they cling to the Russians and the Communists, who wield the agitation weapon and can raise the mob. General Chiang is demanding the dismissal of the Russians, but his opponents are using the argument that if the Russians are discarded the Nationalist party will be without extraneous support in the event of attack by the Northerners or the imperialist Powers, and that there will be danger of losing the gains already wrested from the latter.\n\n## 9. \nMr. Norman and Mr. Morris Cohen, a Canadian employed in the Central Bank, have been to me and to the American consul-general, evidently on behalf of some of the local officials, to ask if the Powers cannot give Chiang Kai-shek some assurance of their support provided he eliminates the Russians, but they were very vague as to the form such assurance could take. I replied that **His Majesty's Government** declined to interfere in Chinese politics, but that they had already publicly made known to both Governments in China their willingness to alter the treaties and to do their best to meet the Nationalist aspirations, and that this offer would not be withdrawn whatever happened to the Russians. I said, however, that I would be glad to communicate by telegraph any considered suggestions made to me personally by any of the political leaders in Canton. I was then told that Mr. Kung would probably come and see me confidentially on the subject, but, although he returned my call and expressed his friendly sentiments, he has not so far seen fit to confide in me to the above extent. I have reason to believe, however, that my American colleague has telegraphed to Mr. MacMurray suggesting that Sun Fo and his party should be approached unofficially in Hankow and assured that they will not lose ground in an international sense by abandoning their Russian connection.\n\n## 10. \nIn the meantime the Japanese seem, in their own way, to be flirting with the South. The Japanese consul-general is a frequent visitor at General Li Chai-sum's residence, and he is in close touch with Mr. Chen Shu-jen, the Civil Commissioner in the Provincial Government, who was educated in Japan and speaks the language fluently. The Kuo Min-tang is at present represented in Japan by Mr. Tai Chi-tao, a prominent member of the party, and a close friend of Chiang Kai-shek. Mr. Cohen, who knows Mr. Tai personally, tells me that Chiang Kai-shek, having no son of his own, has adopted a son of Mr. Tai by one of his concubines. General Wu Te-chen, formerly chief of police in Canton, is also in Japan. I have seen a private letter from him describing his cordial reception by the Japanese authorities, while recent speeches by Mr. Saburi and Baron Shidehara would indicate that Japan is preparing the ground for an understanding with the Southerners in the event of their triumph.\n\nI have, &c.\n\n**J. F. BRENAN.**\n\n## 46",

With General Li Chai-sum in his policy of Canton for the Cantonese is General Li Fuk-lam (see my secret despatch of the 14th July). But there are other candidates on the same platform, namely Generals Ch'an Kwing-ming and Ngai Pong-p'eng, both Kuangtung men and sworn foes of Marshal Tseung Kai-shek and his clique.\n\n2. Here we meet with a puzzle which is insoluble on present information. Recently the Canton Authorities applied to me through the Consul General at Canton in very polite terms for the return of a gunboat named \"Kwong Ching\", which took refuge in Hong Kong during October 1925 and was interned, the armament and parts of the machinery being taken over by the Hong Kong Police. The vessel had been manned by adherents of General Ch'an Kwing-ming and was understood to belong to him in the way that Chinese naval units often do belong to individual commanders. To my surprise General Ch'an, who is still in Hong Kong, promptly furnished the envoys from Canton with a written waiver of all claim to the vessel in their favour and she was accordingly released and returned to Canton. At the same time Lo Kwan, a well-known adherent of General Ch'an, who for a long time defied the Tseung Kai-shek regime in the area between Mirs Bay and Bias Bay, and who is repeatedly mentioned in my secret despatches on the subject of the Bias Bay piracies, re-appeared in Hong Kong and informed the Police that he had been invited to take up an official post under the Canton Government and that several other equally well-known adherents of General Ch'an were",

In the 11th year of the Republic (1922) C. C. Wu came to Mukden under the directions of Sun Chung Shan, and negotiated with us a joint mobilization against Wuhan. Thereupon the Mukdenese troops were mobilized and entered the Shan Hoi Kwan. Sun also marched from Kwangsi to join us at Wuhan. But he was hindered by Chan Kwing Ming and so he did not succeed in his enterprise. Later Sun attempted to force his way out through Kiangsi, but also failed. Although Sun was defeated twice, yet the alliance between Mukden and Sun was a fact. Next Wong Ching Wai, Ching Chim, and Cheung Kai came to Mukden, proposing the Russo-Mukdenese Agreement. Mukden accepted it and treated them with due courtesy. Later Sun Chung Shan went to Shanghai, and Mukden often supported him with supplies of materials. At last a triple alliance was again made, and all these will prove that no bad feeling has ever existed between Mukden and the Kuomintang. What we aim at is to punish the Communists. At present only Tseung Kai Shek can really oppose the Communists, and an agreement with him is not questionable. Wu Tsz Yuk (Wu Pei-fu) was our enemy and Sun Hing Yuen (Sun Chuen-fang) had once driven us out: ultimately we still could have co-operated with them for ...",

In fact, the Peasants and \nWorkmen's Corps were at that time an unarmed mob.

When Borodin saw me later, it was clear that the outcome had surprised him, but I spoke soft words to him, \"You are a disciple of Marx and will appreciate that your criticism of the position was made from an imperfect apprehension of its various elements. It is not that we are cleverer than you are, but that you, being a foreigner, do not understand the situation.\" \n\nThere was another incident which will show you what sort of man Borodin is. We disposed of Yeung (Hui Man) and Lau (Chan Wan) after our Expedition to the East River. When the East River Expedition was being planned, Borodin was in Peking, and did not take part. This once resolved upon, we gave the task to our Kuomintang army, with the Cantonese troops in reserve. We owed our success in a great degree to the energy of Comrade Chan Ming Shu who sits among us to-day. The true strength of our troops was only one-tenth of that of our enemies, but in practice we were able to defeat the armies of Chan Kwing Ming one after another in the same manner as we have now defeated Wu Pei-fu and Sun Chuen-fong. We overcame Ip Kui, Hung Shiu Lun, and Lam Fu in detail. Yeung Hui Man was attached to Lam Fu, and Lau Chan Wan had allied himself with the North and sympathised with Tong Kai Iu. On the defeat of Lam Fu, Yeung and Lau rose in conjunction with the intention of seizing Canton, causing disturbance at our base, changing the flags at our Headquarters, and destroying the East River Expeditionary Force. I knew that we were on the edge of a crisis, and that they must be dealt with without a moment's delay. I had a discussion with Comrade Liu Chung Hoi, and we made up our minds. Comrade Liu then proceeded to Chiu Chau and came to a complete understanding with Comrade Tseung (Kai Shek) and Hui (Shung Chi). When all arrangements had been made",

Mr. Chan, the Chairman, has related to you what we have for remembrance. Can it be that our diplomatic failures are limited to the 21 Articles? From the outbreak of the Opium War up to the time of the 21 Demands, there have been more than 10 or 20 incidents which demand our commiseration; some of them have even caused us greater grief and disgrace than the present occasion. Let me give you an instance. At the outbreak of the Opium War in the 3rd year of Ham Fung, 60 or 70 years ago, the British took prisoner Ip Ming Sham, Viceroy of the 2 Kwongs, carried him to India and shut him up there. He was not accustomed to Indian bread and consequently died of starvation. The British then preserved his corpse with sugar (at that time chemistry was not in a very advanced state and methods for preserving bodies had not been discovered), crowned him with a hat with a button and a peacock's feather, and set him in a street in India open to the inspection of the public; and they collected payment for every subsequent inspection. Is it not a great disgrace to us that such a high official of China as a Viceroy has been thus treated by the English? But our Chinese at that time were not aware of this; even had they been, their feelings would not have been stirred by it. Our Nationals did not wake up until the 21 Demands were made on us, and since then we have had humiliation day May the 9th, the movement of May the 4th and the Commemoration of May the 30th. All these days are observed in memory of incidents...",

MIRS BAY\n\nThe north-east coast and hinterland of Mirs Bay has, in the past week, been the venue of a small rebellion engineered by ex-followers of General Chan Kwing Ming. It was a short-lived affair as, although the rebels met with some initial success they were speedily routed and dispersed by regular troops sent from Wai Chau. The story of the rebellion, or as much of it as has been gathered, is as follows:-\n\nPrior to the 27th August, 1927, a sudden raid was made upon Tai Pang City by over 200 men led, it is said, by Wong Fuk Chi, Wong Hoi Tsai, Li Hon Tong and Yeung Kai Ming, all former officers under General Chan Kwing Ming. The raid upon Tai Pang was only a partial success, as the rebels were stoutly resisted by the local \"Po On Tun\". The next effort of the rebels was to raid the market town of Wong Mo, inland from Sha U Chung. Prior to the attack on Tai Pang, word had been sent to General Wu Him, at Wai Chau, that rebels were planning an uprising, and as a precautionary measure, General Wu, on the 26th August, 1927, despatched to Tai Pang a small body of troops, numbering 80. These troops arrived at Au Tau, Mirs Bay, on the 28th, where they embarked on Tang Man Lit's launch, the \"Wai Po\", which took them to Tip Fuk, Mirs Bay, where they arrived at about 08.00 hours on the 29th. About 11.00 hours, same date, while these troops were partaking of food in a small shop in Tip Fuk, they were suddenly attacked by an overwhelming force of rebels with the result that 2 officers and about 15 of...",

In view of subsequent events, it is useless to speculate at this period on the motives which led to this change of plan and, in particular, to the departure of Li Chi-sum from Canton. Popular opinion held that Wong Tsing-wai's departure was chiefly due to Li's opposition to his Canton scheme; whereas Li, who felt that he had the Canton situation well in hand and was at the same time well aware of Wong's influence, was prepared to soften the blow to his prestige by accompanying him to Shanghai.\n\n7.

LIANG SHIH-YI says that these men are imbued with the conservatism of the North, and are free from the radicalism and impulsiveness of the South. With His Excellency's permission he would like to give a summary of the present situation as it appears to him after having heard Mr. Luk. Apparently the Canton Government are aiming at having a Monroe Doctrine for Kwongtung. They also aim at friendly relations with Hongkong. Tsuk-man has already informed us, and Mr. Fung is a man to be trusted. What the Canton Government seem to be lacking is political experience and wisdom. They have been letting Chang Fat-fui too much alone. Chang was a subordinate of General Li before he went on the Northern Expedition. In point of fact, he should be called a \"grandson\", and not even a \"son\" of General Li because he was serving under Chan Ming-shu, and Chan Ming-shu was serving under General Li when Chiang Kai-shek led his expeditionary forces northward.\n\nIn about March this year, Chang, elated with his own military success, forsook Chan Ming-shu who is now without a command. Chang became rather proud and conceited over his victory at Ting Tez Kiu, but he has had one or two serious setbacks since. In the fightings in Honan against Fengtien he lost over 7,000 men, and when Ip Ting took the",

        "content_text": "# \n64 \n\n**(Telegraphic.)** \n4 \n\n**(B.)** \n\n## Draft Reply to Sir M. Lampson (Peking)\n\nYOUR telegram No. 825. \n\nYour attitude is fully approved. \n\nForeign Office, May 1927. \n\nYou should in any further conversations or communications with Chang Tso-lin explain to him clearly that his suggestion that His Majesty's Government should assist him in fighting Bolshevism in China and that his future movements depend upon the intentions of the Powers towards the Bolshevist menace in that country practically constitute an invitation to His Majesty's Government and the other Powers to co-operate with him in action amounting, on their part, to direct intervention in the internal affairs of China. \n\nSuch an invitation cannot possibly be accepted by His Majesty's Government, whose main object at the present time is to refrain from any action which might be interpreted as interference in China's internal affairs and to observe complete neutrality between all the contesting factions. \n\nHis Majesty's Government cannot believe, moreover, that they would be in fact assisting Chang Tso-lin's cause or helping on the campaign upon which he is already successfully embarked for dealing with the extremist elements in territory under his control by adopting a new policy on the suggested lines, which would publicly associate his name with their action, and so probably serve to discredit him with other Chinese elements, and perhaps produce a general reaction from the tendency now becoming apparent all over China to deal with extremist and Bolshevist movements as they deserve. \n\nRepeat to Tokyo, Shanghai, Mr. Newton, Canton for Hong Kong. \n\n**(C.)** \n\n## Draft Letter to Colonial Office\n\nSir, \n\nForeign Office, May 1927. WITH reference to Colonial Office letter of the 4th instant, transmitting copy of telegraphic correspondence with the Governor of Hong Kong regarding the suggested relaxation of the Arms Embargo in favour of General Li Chai-sum, I am directed by Secretary Sir Austen Chamberlain to state that he has carefully examined this proposal. \n\n2. It appears to Sir Austen Chamberlain that it is at present premature to form any conclusions as to the value of any assurances given by General Li, of whom comparatively little is known. The past has seen many instances of the rise of military leaders who made amicable professions and whose prospects appeared promising, but who have speedily proved to be either unreliable or ineffectual, and it accordingly appears essential that His Majesty's Government should observe the utmost caution in their relations with any new aspirant. \n\n3. Moreover, any assistance, however restricted, and however well safeguarded by conditions and assurances, would, in fact, be the first step in a new policy of rendering concrete help in the suppression of Bolshevism in China. Mr. Secretary Amery will remember that in his telegram No. 825 of the 5th instant, Sir M. Lampson reported that he had been approached by Chang Tso-lin with a request for assistance for this purpose. Sir Austen Chamberlain proposes to send the enclosed reply to Sir M. Lampson,* explaining the grounds on which it is impossible to accede to his request. The reasons which necessitate this attitude in the case of such an old-established and well-known leader as Chang Tso-lin, would apply with much greater force to the case of a comparative newcomer like Li Chai-sum, and while he is refusing assistance to the former, Sir Austen Chamberlain cannot consider facilitating the supply of arms to the latter. \n\n* See **(B)**.\n\n4. A further reason for not agreeing to these latest proposals lies in the fact that only a short time ago Sir M. Lampson was anxious as to the possibility of Southern troops invading Peking and Tien-tsin. While the probability of this is more remote at the present moment, it is a possibility that must always be contemplated, and it is obvious that His Majesty's Government would be placed in a most embarrassing position vis-à-vis the Peking Government if it could be shown that they had in any way contributed, however indirectly, towards the strength of the Southern forces. \n\n5. A further point to be considered in this connection is that Li Chai-sum is nominally a subordinate of Chiang Kai-shek; it is, therefore, by no means improbable that any arms which His Majesty's Government allowed to reach the former would eventually be used by the latter's troops in the Shanghai area. In view of the presence of British troops in that area, and the possibility that such arms might be used against them, Sir Austen Chamberlain considers that every precaution must be taken to guard against this contingency. \n\n6. A copy is enclosed of Mr. Brenan's telegram No. 32 of the 6th May, in which he supports the Governor of Hong Kong's suggestion. Sir Austen Chamberlain, however, remains unconvinced as to the desirability of embarking on this new Arms policy for reasons adduced above. His objections, of course, do not apply to the sale of unarmed motor-boats to the Canton authorities. As regards the proposed shipment of arms through a German firm, it is clear that no special treatment can be given at British ports such as has been and will be denied to other shipments consigned to other Chinese traders. In fact, the foregoing arguments apply as in the case of a direct sale of arms. Mr. Brenan will be informed accordingly, and instructed that the assurance and authorisation suggested in the third paragraph of his telegram must not be given. \n\n## Enclosure in (C)\n\n### Mr. Brenan to Sir Austen Chamberlain\n\n**(Received May 6.)** \n**(No. 32.)** \n**(Telegraphic.)** \n\nCanton (via Hong Kong), May 6, 1927. \n\nCOLONIAL OFFICE telegram to Hong Kong of 3rd May. Although General Li Chai-sum is at present the outstanding person in Canton, he is by no means an all-powerful dictator. He is still nominally the subordinate of Chiang, and cannot ignore Kuo Min-tang. I fear, therefore, it is useless to expect from him the declaration suggested by Governor of Hong Kong. \n\nI do not suggest we should supply him with arms or encourage British firms to enter into credit transactions, but only that he be given facilities to buy for cash at reasonable rates in Hong Kong or through Hong Kong agents. I quite agree that we should regard Chiang's faction with caution. They are not friendly to us, and we may yet have to deal drastically with them, but in the meantime they are undoubtedly fighting our battle by attacking Communists and Soviet agents. They have just searched Soviet consul's mails in Canton and found incriminating documents. If they are forced to compromise with Communists because we prevent them from getting arms we may look for renewal of anti-British boycott in this province, whereas trade prospects are now improving. \n\nGeneral Li Chai-sum is attempting to obtain a consignment of arms, ammunition and explosives through a German firm. German agent has given me particulars and stated that he can import these from Scandinavian countries by a Norwegian ship provided shipment will not be stopped by British, and he asked attitude of His Majesty's Government in view of anti-Communist movement. He also wished to insure with a British company. I could only reply that, provided that the ship did not enter British waters, consignment was not likely to be stopped. As it is difficult to avoid British ports, this is unsatisfactory, and risk of seizure makes transactions unattractive except at high price. In the present circumstances can I give assurance that consignment for Li Chai-sum will not be seized en route and authorise British insurance company to cover risk? \n\nCanton naval authorities also wish to order from Arnhold and Co. eight motor-boats with Thornycroft engines and wireless for pirate prevention, and have offered attractive terms for payment. I have told agent that there is no objection provided that no armament is supplied, but if you do not approve please telegraph immediately, as the matter is urgent. \n\nAnti-foreign movement was not contemplated when Arms Agreement was concluded. Latter, like all co-operative schemes in China, has proved a sorry farce from British point of view and is now definitely dangerous to our interests. We cannot afford to discard any political weapon in present struggle, and should use our control of arms trade, especially in Hong Kong, to our own advantage. \n\n**(Repeated to Peking. No. 45, and Hong Kong.)** \n\nPage 60 \nPage 61",

Chiang is not too sure of his control over Hankow, where the various Generals appear to be more concerned with personal intrigues than with the pursuit of the proposed northern campaign. In order to maintain central control from Nanking over the various Nationalist factions in the Wuhan district, Chiang Kai-Shek ordered Tan Yen-kai, the Chairman of the Nationalist Political Council, to proceed to Hankow, owing to the anti-Nanking attitude of Pei Chung-hsi and Cheng-chien. Tan Yen-kai being doubtful of his reception at Hankow has requested to be relieved of this duty.\n\nIn his search for support Chiang Kai-Shek has informed Chang Fa-kuei (the notorious Red extremist) that he is prepared to overlook the latter's Communist activities if he will in return join him in the northern campaign. Chang Fa-kuei, who was driven out of Canton last December, is at present with the Communist forces of Ho Lung and Yeh Ting in eastern Kwantung, where a reign of terror and frightfulness has been in existence for the last three months. The fact that Chiang is anxious for the support of such a character indicates how insecure he feels his own position to be.\n\nHuang Fu, who became Minister for Foreign Affairs in the Nanking Government during February, recently issued a manifesto containing the aims of the Nanking regime. According to the manifesto it is hoped to open negotiations at an early date for the revision of foreign treaties, but in the meanwhile it is desired to cultivate friendly relations with the Powers, to remove all sources of misunderstanding and difficulty, and to protect the lives and property of all foreigners. It only remains to be seen whether the present regime will be any less anti-foreign in its policy than its predecessors.\n\nCommunist agitators having lately found it impossible to make any progress in Hupeh transferred their activities to Shanghai, but owing to recent raids on their premises in the International Settlement, French Concession, and Chinese territory they have now decided to leave for Moscow,\n\nOwing to the extensive damage done in Canton city during the Communist rising of December last, the local Government is in desperate need of funds for relief and reconstruction work. To obtain this it is intended to levy a special surtax of 20 per cent., additional to the existing customs dues and Washington surtaxes.\n\nH.M. Consul-General states that the need is both legitimate and pressing, and considers that the Canton authorities should be informed that although a formal protest would have to be lodged in order to maintain our treaty position, no further opposition to its collection would be offered by Great Britain.\n\nH.M. Minister has recently visited various ports during his tour to South China, and was much impressed with the cordiality\n\n9\n\nof his reception at Foochow, which was a striking contrast to his previous experience of Nationalist Governments.\n\nAt Canton, Sir Miles Lampson was entertained with marked courtesy and hospitality by Li Chai-sum, who abandoned his usual reserve and appeared to go out of his way to be friendly. Sir Miles had two long interviews with Li, when the whole political field was traversed in a frank and friendly atmosphere. H.M. Minister considers this visit and exchange of views can be regarded as a distinct success if Li Chai-sum can only maintain his present position as virtual ruler of Kwantung.\n\nSir Miles Lampson hopes to be able to visit Nanking at the invitation of the Nanking Government on his way back to Peking, provided that a settlement of the outrage of 1927 has been satisfactorily arrived at. To this end unofficial discussions are in progress. Chen-chien, the author of the outrages, continues to be one of the chief obstacles to a settlement: owing to his present influential position at Hankow the Nanking regime state that they are quite unable to take any disciplinary action against him, though he is the chief of the culprits whose punishment the British Government demand.\n\nEGYPT.\n\nKing Fuad's reception in England in August 1927, was greatly appreciated by a large number of Egyptians, and the British Government took advantage of the favourable conditions so created to commence discussions with Egypt with the object of negotiating a Treaty of Alliance which would form the basis of relations between the two countries.\n\nThe draft of the proposed Treaty was under discussion in London during November, and Sarwat Pasha, the Egyptian Prime Minister, subsequently returned to Cairo with an agreed draft which was to be considered by the Egyptian Government.\n\nFrom December 1927, until March 1928, the precise interpretation of various clauses in the Treaty and certain amendments suggested, were under discussion between Sarwat Pasha and His Majesty's Government. On 25th February, Sarwat Pasha at length made known the terms of the Treaty to his colleagues in the Egyptian Government, and endeavoured to obtain their agreement. The Treaty was also shown to Mustapha Nahas Pasha, the President of the Wafd (or Nationalist party), which is in a majority in the Egyptian parliament. On 2nd March, Sarwat Pasha informed Lord Lloyd, H.M. High Commissioner in Egypt, that his Government had decided to reject the Treaty, principally on the ground that it constituted legal recognition of the presence of the British Army in Egypt. The formal refusal of the Egyptian Government was handed in on 4th March, and Sarwat Pasha at the same time tendered his resignation of office to King Fuad.\n\n123",

F. BRENAN.\n\n## Enclosure 1 in No. 1.\n\n(No. 133.) Sir,\n\nActing Consul-General Brenan to Sir M. Lampson.\n\nCanton, August 30, 1928.\n\nI HAVE the honour to report that, without being able to obtain any definite information, I have received disquieting rumours from various sources, that trouble of some sort is brewing in Canton. I enclose, for instance, a copy of a letter from Major-General Luard in Hong Kong, who has been told by a Chinese in touch with Marshal Li Chai-sum's entourage that a plot against the marshal is being hatched by the local supporters of Chiang Kai-shek. My reply to General Luard is also enclosed.\n\n2. The same sort of reports have been passed on to me by the Asiatic Petroleum Company, who are often well informed through their Chinese agents, and very definite corroboration of the uneasy feeling in the city is furnished by the recent request of four Chinese police inspectors for permits to enter the concession at night. The concession gates are closed every evening at 10 o'clock. The request for passes was made privately to the British Municipal Superintendent of Police, Captain Clements, with whom the Chinese police officials are on friendly terms, and the reason given was Communist disaffection among the troops. During the last uprising the police were the first sufferers, and these four inspectors evidently intend to keep open a line of retreat in case of necessity.\n\n3. The French consul has heard through Catholic missionary channels that General Chan Ming-shu, whose headquarters are in Hainan, had planned a revolt against the Kwangsi régime in Canton, but that he had abandoned the idea.\n\n4. One obvious way of making things difficult for Marshal Li is to encourage bad feeling against the British, with whom he is trying to keep on friendly terms, and to force him into a position where he either has to suppress the Chinese agitation and be denounced as a \"running dog\" of the foreigner, or be brought into undesired conflict with the British authorities. I enclose a translation of a press article intended to stir up trouble over the Hong Kong boundaries, which I am told was published with the above object in view.\n\n5. The local authorities profess to have no anxiety, and state that Marshal Li's subordinates are faithful to him and have firm control of the city. Nevertheless, the hunt for Communists continues and executions are a daily occurrence. The marshal is expected back in Canton shortly, but the date of his departure from Shanghai is postponed from day to day, and the uncertainty of his movements does not allay the general uneasiness.\n\n6. Mr. Hu Han-min, the Nationalist right wing leader, has returned from Europe and is at present in Hong Kong. He appears to be undecided whether to visit Canton or to go straight on to Shanghai and Nanking.\n\n7. Another significant visitor in Canton at the moment is Yang Yü-sun, the representative of General Chang Hsueh-liang of Manchuria, who is housed in the old British consulate yamen and is being treated as an honoured guest. It is rumoured that the Manchurian and Kwangsi parties are contemplating an entente against Chiang Kai-shek and the left wing of the Kuomintang.\n\n[594 b--2]",

Much intrigue is evidently going on, but the local aspects of it are merely reflections of the manoeuvres in progress at Nanking, and the future of the province is bound up with the success or failure of the Nationalist leaders in securing some sort of unity under a Central Government.\n\nI have, &c.\n\nDear Brenan,\n\nEnclosure 2 in No. 1.\n\nJ. F. BRENAN.\n\nMajor-General Luard to Acting Consul-General Brenan.\n\nHeadquarters, South China Command,\n\nHong Kong, August 24, 1928.\n\nI AM enclosing a copy of a letter I have to-day sent to his Excellency, the Officer Administering the Government, Hong Kong.\n\nAs regards arms in Shameen, I understand that the Canton authorities are contemplating obtaining permission from the foreign consuls to make a search.\n\nI should be interested to have any comments you may care to make on the situation generally, and whether you can contradict or corroborate the news contained in the attached letter.\n\nI propose coming to Canton with Hanna to have a look at things and to have a talk with you on Monday next—leave here Sunday-night boat. I shall be busy with detachment early, but will come and see you about midday, if that will suit.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nC. C. LUARD.\n\nEnclosure 4 in No. 1.\n\nActing Consul-General Brenan to Major-General Luard.\n\nDear General,\n\nCanton, August 28, 1928.\n\nI HAD the pleasure of discussing with you personally the matters mentioned in your letter of the 24th August, but I am sending this brief reply for purposes of record.\n\nI have heard various rumours about intrigues against the present Canton administration, in which Chen Ming-shu and Chan Chak are mentioned as opponents of Li Chai-sum, and I have no doubt that Li Fuk-lam would like to get back to his old position in Honam. Such intrigues and rumours are inevitable, but I cannot say how serious they are in the present case. The local authorities, with whom I have discussed the situation, seem to feel fairly secure and to believe that Li Chai-sum is firmly established. On the other hand, we have had requests for permits to enter Shameen after dark from Canton police officers, who fear trouble and want a line of retreat in case of another Communist uprising.\n\nI do not think that any quantity of arms can be stored on Shameen without our knowledge. It would be difficult to bring them in and still more difficult to take them out once the trouble had started. I mentioned the rumour to my French colleague. He was sceptical, but said he would investigate. At all events, the Cantonese authorities have said nothing about any such suspicions, and they would be quick enough to do so, if they had them.\n\nIf I were you, I think I should be cautious with Mr. Koo. I know nothing about him, but from what you tell me I suspect that he is trying to secure some job or concession for himself from the Chinese powers that be, and he would like to give them the impression that he is intimate with the British military authorities, and is in a position to obtain supplies of arms or other favours.\n\nWang Shao-hung sent an emissary to see me a few days ago to countersign an import permit for saltpetre, which the general wished to purchase in Hong Kong for a fire-cracker factory in which he was interested. The messenger told me that General Wang had gone to Liuchow.\n\nYours sincerely,\n\nEnclosure 3 in No. 1.\n\nMajor-General Luard to the Governor of Hong Kong.\n\n(Secret.) Your Excellency,\n\nHeadquarters, South China Command,\n\nHong Kong, August 24, 1928.\n\nI HAVE the honour to inform you of the gist of a conversation held yesterday between a member of my staff and Mr. Koo. The latter, you will remember, was recently largely instrumental in arranging a visit to Canton by one of my staff, who saw various military establishments and whose report you have seen.\n\n2. Mr. Koo gave the impression of being very concerned about the stability of the existing régime in Canton. He stated that Li Chai-sum had been far too easy-going in the past, and that, in reality, the only troops upon which he could depend were those of the IVth Army under General Chan Chia-tong,\n\n3. In the meantime, a definite anti-Kwangsi party were forming in Canton, whom he considered as pro-Chiang Kai-shek. The leaders of this party are General Chen Ming-shu, at present in Hainan, Admiral Chan Chak and Li Fuk-lam, the latter having recently returned to Hong Kong.\n\n4. In some three weeks' time Mr. Koo expects the plot to ripen, in which case a rising will take place, and the rebellious leaders are not expected to hesitate from using and arming \"Red\" peasants. For this purpose, Mr. Koo stated that the Cantonese authorities were aware that Li Fuk-lam had been storing arms in the Shameen, and these are suspected to be in the French concession.\n\n5. Mr. Koo was very anxious that an officer from Hong Kong should accompany him to Kwangsi to interview Wang Shao-hung, the military chief of that province, in order to advise him to come to the aid of Li Chai-sum. He pointed out that early this year a diplomatic rapprochement was effected between Hong Kong and Canton, and that it was a pity that the most should not be made of this, particularly as the Chiang Kai-shek party, represented in the South by Chen Ming-shu and Chan Chak, were not likely to be fastidious in making use of Russian help.\n\n6. Mr. Koo intimated that it was possible that Wang Shao-hung might be visiting Canton in a few days' time.\n\nI have, &c.\n\nC. C. LUARD, Commanding, South China Command.\n\nJ. F. BRENAN.\n\nEnclosure 5 in No. 1.\n\nExtract from the\n\n\"Kung Ping Po\" of August 13, 1928.\n\nTHE PROPOSAL OF DEMARCATION OF THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN PO ON DISTRICT AND THE NEW TERRITORY SUBMITTED FOR RESOLUTION.\n\n(Translation.)\n\nTHE Po On magistrate, named Chang Kai Tsung, is of opinion that as Po On District is closely connected, geographically speaking, with Hong Kong, it is not unusual to find serious disputes and unavoidable misunderstandings between the Chinese and British Governments, if and when the boundaries are not clearly demarcated. At the Rehabilitation Conference of the Western Region, a written proposal has been submitted by the said magistrate, seconded by other five magistrates, to the effect that an application should be sent in by the Rehabilitation Commissioner for the Western Region to the Kwangtung Provincial Government requesting them to appoint a special deputy to Po On District inviting the Hong Kong Government for negotiating the demarcation in question.\n\nReasons supporting the Proposal.\n\nIn accordance with the Assembly Meeting Procedures, if a proposal is moved by one of the members present and seconded by five other members, the proposal may be submitted as a provisional motion, we beg to state that the original name of the present Po On District was called the San On District.\n\nIt was after the opium war, when the Island of Hong Kong was occupied vi et armis with no strong reasons by the British Government, as a concession for a period of ninety-nine years. This was the greatest disgrace, which could never be forgotten",

Some cargo had been \"Shut Out\" owing to the rain. There was a Chinese Warship at anchor close to the \"Tean\". There were also other steamers close to her. The \"Tean\" is fitted with grilles and carries 4 Indian Guards, none of whom were on \"watch\" while the ship was at Hoi How. The ship's armament consisted of 10 revolvers, 6 Winchester Rifles and 2 shot guns and 1200 rounds of ammunition.\n\nThe Pirates suddenly rose up and got control of the vessel as the Indian Guards and Officers (except those on watch) were sleeping. The pirates lost no time in securing the ship's arms as they were very poorly armed when they launched the attack.\n\nThe 2nd Officer (J.R.Forster) who was on Deck attempted to disarm the first pirate he encountered. The pirate levelled his revolver at the Officer and pulled the trigger several times but the revolver did not go off. Then other pirates came on the scene and the Officer ran along the Deck pursued by pirates who fired several shots at him, none taking effect. The officer evaded his pursuers in the darkness.\n\nThe pirates who were pursuing the 2nd Officer rushed on the Bridge and shot the first person they saw (thinking he was the 2nd Officer).

On the 15th day, there arrived in this Colony two Chinese cruisers, the C.S. \"Hai-yung\" and the C.S. \"Yin-swei\". These cruisers came to Hong Kong from Shanghai and, I understand, compose the training squadron of the Chinese Navy. On the 17th day, Rear-Admiral H.Y. Chan, accompanied by Captain S.T. Wang commanding the C.S. \"Hai-yung\", and Captain Y.C. Tin, commanding the C.S. \"Yin-swei\", paid a ceremonial call upon me, which I returned immediately afterwards. I asked him how long he proposed to remain in Hong Kong. He was uncertain, but said he would probably be here for several days. I do not know what the purpose of his visit to Hong Kong may be, and he shows no signs of joining overtly in the civil war between Kwangtung and Kwangsi; but I have no doubt that, according to the usual traditions of the Chinese Navy, he will sell the services of his ships to one side or the other at a high price. I took the opportunity of handing him a memorandum concerning a further piracy, which is now being plotted by the Bias Bay gang, and I asked him to get in touch with the Chinese wireless station at Au-tau in Bias Bay, with a view to taking measures to obviate any piratical outrage. He said he would try to...",

Fighting against each other without extraneous aid, Kwongsi could easily capture Kwongtung; but with Chiang Kai-shek's forces hemming it in on at least three sides, Kwongsi would not be able to hold Kwongtung for any length of time. Kwongsi is a poor province, and without the financial aid of Kwongtung it could never finance itself for prolonged warfare against such a powerful foe as Chiang Kai-shek. It has, therefore, been suggested that it would be best for the Kwongsi-ites to place at the disposal of a Kwongtung general (who is now in retirement but who at one time had held high command in the Province) about 10,000 to 15,000 men near the Kwongtung-Kwongsi border. It is believed that once this general begins operations in Kwongtung, many military leaders in the Province who were his former subordinates may rally round him. With the exception of Admiral Chan Chak, the military and naval leaders in Kwongtung are not keen on fighting at all. They have no desire for military exploits and political jobs outside the province.\n\n4.

He asked me to thank His Excellency the Governor for his kind invitation to him and his wife to lunch on Monday the 29th instant, and to express his regret that owing to his inability to leave hospital at present they could not come. He said that he expected to be able to leave hospital in about another ten days' time, and that as soon as he was out he would arrange with me to call on His Excellency.\n\nIn the course of our conversation we touched upon the political situation in Kwangtung and Kwangsi. I said that from the newspaper accounts as well as from other information I received, it looked as if war between the Two Kwangs was inevitable. It was reported that Marshal Chiang Kai-shek had instructed General Ho Chien of Hunan to attack Kwangsi, and also that Kwangtung was sending an expedition for the same object. Like driving a dog into a corner, and Kwangsi would have no alternative but to defend herself. General Chan Ming-shu replied that there was still hope of war being avoided, though he did not say upon what ground his hope was based.\n\nGeneral Chan said that it was absolutely necessary that General Wong Shiu-hung should declare his policy. At present General Li Chung-jen and General Pei Chung-hsi were in Kwangsi. The Nanking Government had ordered their arrest, and by allowing them to stay in the province General Wong Shiu-hung was harbouring them in defiance...",

General Chan assured me that personally he had always been friendly with the Kwangsi leaders, and that all his dealings with them had been fair and square. He said that he had in fact recently sent a deputy to Nanking to intercede with Marshal Chiang Kai-shek for the release of Marshal Li Chai-sum, upon his (General Chan's) personal assurance that Marshal Li would not concern himself in active politics and that he would go abroad for a while.\n\nI asked General Chan what was the strength of the Wuhan armies during the fighting at Hankow. He said that as far as he knew, the combined Wuhan forces numbered about 60,000 men. Of this number, two-thirds had been killed or scattered in the fighting, and the remaining one-third had been incorporated into other armies; so that of these forces not a single man was likely to return to Kwangsi. Regarding Wu and Tao, the two Wuhan generals, General Chan Ming-shu assured me that they had surrendered to the Nanking Government, and that they were to go abroad for a rest.\n\nAsked as to the strength of the forces in Kwangsi under General Wong Shiu-hung, General Chan estimated that it could not be more than 20,000 men all told. Once they were attacked, by either Hunan or Kwangtung, it would be difficult for them to hold their own.\n\nGeneral Chan said that Chang Fat-fui had about 10,000 men under him, at present stationed on the south-western border of Hupeh. There was no fear of Chang Fat-fui coming down to Kwangtung at present, as without orders from the Nanking Government he could not leave his present position.",

He deplored the action, which had been taken by Marshal Chiang against Marshal Li, as impolitic and ungenerous, in view of the fact that Marshal Li Chai-sum had gone to Nanking in an endeavour to keep the peace and had on at least two previous occasions supported Marshal Chiang Kai-shek when in considerable danger.\n\nMr. Wong appeared to believe that Marshal Li would before long be released and would then go abroad, possibly visiting his son, who is now at an American University.\n\n8. Mr. Wong volunteered the remark that Marshal Chiang Kai-shek was not much liked by the Chinese, and that he would probably disappear from the political arena before very long, being eliminated in some manner, which would not diminish the authority of the Central Government at Nanking. Who would succeed Marshal Chiang, Mr. Wong did not profess to know; but he evidently was afraid that it might be Marshal Feng Yu-hsiang.\n\n9. I took the opportunity of drawing the attention of Mr. Wong to the news, which I had just received, that the Cantonese military and naval outpost in Bias Bay had been withdrawn, and I asked him to express to General Ch'an Ming-shu my strong opinion that the military and naval stations in Bias Bay must for the present be maintained as a precaution against further piratical outrages. Mr. Wong said that he would communicate my message to General Ch'an, and that he believed the precautions in Bias Bay would not be relaxed.\n\n10.",

Mr. Wong replied that it had been the intention of Marshal Chiang Kai-shek, in the event of Kwangtung taking part against him in the civil war, to order an invasion of the province by Generals Cheung Fat-fui and Mau Pui-nam. These two generals, with their troops, were at present near Nan-ch'ang in Kiangsi province. As, however, the neutrality of Kwangtung was now assured, Marshal Chiang had promised General Chan Ming-shu that the \"Ironsides\" would not be allowed to approach the Kwangtung frontier. The policy of General Ch'an Ming-shu will be the same as that of Marshal Li Chai-sum, namely, to prevent any recrudescence of communism in Kwangtung.\n\n12.",

It is true that about three months ago he went to Shanghai on the invitation of Chiang Kai-shek who endeavoured to enlist his support to strengthen his own position.

Li Pen-hsien is now at Peiping, and Ho Chien at Hunan, and the two have between them about 60,000 men.

In other words, Li Chai-sum has no power in the reorganisation of his own armies in Kwongtung and Kwongsi. Thus it can be seen that Li Chai-sum is shorn of all real powers, militarily and politically, and what is left to him is merely the post of Chief of General Staff at Nanking.\n\nWith the elimination of Li Chai-sum in this way, the position of his three chief lieutenants who command comparatively large armies in the North, East, and West of Kwongtung would become precarious. They would probably, in order to strengthen their own positions, concentrate at chosen points their forces which are at present scattered in various parts of the province, being engaged in the suppression of banditry. The outcome would be that peace and good order in the province would be disturbed: bandits would come out from underground, as it were, particularly at Namhung where communistic troops under Chu and Mao will create yet greater trouble. It is believed that Chiang Kai-shek has purposely driven these undesirable troops to the Kwongtung border so that they could create trouble in the province.\n\nThe suppressed labour unions, the peasants, and the students are sure to come to the fore again as soon as the communists have an opportunity to stir them up; and in that case Chan Ming-shu, even if he would not become a tool of the communists, would not have the ability to maintain peace and order in the province.\n\nFukien",

They claimed to be members of the Kuomintang but aimed at attacking the leaders of the Party. At that time, our senior comrades Ng Chi Fei, Tsoi Yuen Pui, and Cheung Ching Kong, in an interview with Chiang (Kai Shek), told him about the trouble they had created, making the position intolerable beyond words. Therefore, prior to the 5th Conference, the Kuomintang was in fact in exceptionally great danger. But all this was only the result of corruption and selfishness. If immediate steps were not taken to keep them under control, it was to be feared that dissension similar to that at Wuhan would take place again; it would be like a boil which would be beyond remedy when it burst.\n\nThen it happened that Wu Chin Tong (Wu Hon Man) had returned from Europe, and after discussion, we came to the conclusion that the purification of the Kuomintang and its radical improvement were very necessary. Therefore, we went to Shanghai to see what arrangements should be made, resolving that some measures must be taken to do away with corruption and selfishness.\n\nSuch was the chaos in the Kuomintang before the 5th Conference. I now come to the period after the 5th Conference. Tai Kwai To was then one of the Routine Work Officers in the Central. When he was in Canton, he was very anxious that Wu Chin Tong (Wu Hon Man) should return to radically improve the Kuomintang in the Central and in the various districts, for before the reform, the management of the Kuomintang was bad.\n\nNow we have entered the period of political training, and we should devote ourselves to reconstructive work. Therefore, after a discussion, the following four resolutions were made: (1) Activity, (2) Regulation, (3) Election, (4) Other business. Chan Kwo Fu and Mou Pan were appointed Heads of the Organization. The Training Department also needed radical reform.",

Duncan.\n\nXV and 424 pp. New York: Longmans, Green and Co. 1929.\n\nquantitative\n\nThis book forms one of the Long-mans' Social Science Series under the general editorship of Professor Ernest R. Groves. It is designed as a general introduction to population problems, both in their qualitative and quantitative aspects. As a textbook it differs from others in that it contains a great many quotations and citations from various authorities in the field, as the author has tried to make it serve at the same time as a book of readings. We see here the last stage of the process of the simplification of supplementary reading materials, for which the average American college student cannot but feel thankful. Knowledge is nowadays obtainable in increasingly handy and digestible doses. Let us hope there is no appreciable loss of flavor and piquancy which goes with original and deliberate search.\n\nThe text is in two books, the first having to do with the problem of races, and the second with the problem of numbers. While on the whole the author presents a quite balanced panoramic view of the whole field of population problems, the second book appears to be much better written. One of the reasons for this is that the qualitative problem has been approached in recent years from many more angles than the quantitative, and there is much less agreement as to some of its major issues. As one of the weaknesses we may mention our author's failure to distinguish between race as \"stirps\" which involves valuation and race as a taxonomical term which is merely descriptive. The failure is quite common; it is also found in Professor Hankin's Racial Basis of Civilization, but is quite serious as it tends strongly to becloud the issues involved. The racialist eugenist owes the untenability of his position almost entirely to his inability to make this distinction. A better outline of the volume would be Book I, The Problem of Races, Book II. The Problem of Quality, and Book III, The Problem of Numbers.\n\nAnother weakness appears to be our author's inability to be really impartial between any two rival schools of thought. This weakness is of course well-nigh universal. While the author \"has striven to refrain from injecting his own conclusions,\" his inclination towards some particular viewpoint or school of thought is often quite obvious from the way he sifts his reference materials and the varying emphasis which he puts upon them, usually through the use of italics. Our author starts one of the chapters saying, \"We have no intention of minimizing the importance of the social environment, but it is well to remember.........\" But he concludes the same chapter with a passage from Jennings, the very last sentence of which he has taken pains to italicise: \"And the way they (the hereditary units called genes) interact and what they produce depends on the conditions.\" So our author appears to be at heart an environmentalist. Similarly, he appears to be a racial egalitarian, and tends to minimize racial differences. While he speaks disdainfully of the racialists, he himself has not hesitated to refer to the Mexican as \"a more slothful and less progressive group\" than the Americans, the Chinese as \"non-assuming,\" and the Japanese as \"efficient,\" nor has he been slow in adopting Professor Smith's Tentative Scheme of the Relationships of the Different Genera, Species, and Races of the Human Family, which makes the Nordic Race the latest development of the trunk and all other races earlier developed branches from the trunk.\n\nThat in the discussion of monogenism versus polygenism and of the production of genius, Crookshank and Redfield should have occupied as respectable places as most other authorities, and this in an introductory textbook, is a big surprise to us. We also wonder why in the discussion of mental differences between races, Professor Porteus' contributions which are based upon quantitative measurements and upon a method of testing which obviated the use of language, are not even alluded to.\n\nAs minor mistakes, we may mention that the three teeth of the Java Man were not all discovered by Dubois in 1891-2. One of the three came to light a few years later as a result of the expedition sent out by Madame Selenka. Polydactylism, brachydactylism and the \"sex-linked disease, color-blindness\" are by this time fairly well established to be Mendelian traits, and not \"thought by a few\" to be such. Students in heredity usually do not call such traits as color-blindness \"diseases.\" And in calling such traits \"sex-linked,\" the author has himself implied something more than what is strictly Mendelian.\n\nThe volume has more typographical errors than one would normally expect from American publishers. One error is perhaps serious, as it appears more than once; we refer to Professor H. F. Osborn being misspelt \"Osborne\" on page 143.\n\nIn spite of all this, we do not hesitate to recommend this volume as a good textbook for a term course in Race and Population Problems, provided of course the teacher knows how to make good some of the drawbacks we have mentioned. For Chinese colleges and universities which are not equipped with good reference libraries, the volume will prove particularly useful, as it is in part a book of readings, containing as many as \"some 650 quotations and citations\" which \"present the major as well as some of the minor contributions to the field.\"\n\nQ. P.\n\nOFFICIAL DOCUMENTS\n\nTHE RAILWAY ENTERPRISE UNDER THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT\n\nA Brief History of the Ministry of Railways\n\nDr. Sun Yat-sen said \"Transportation is the key to Industries and Railway the key to Transportation.\" Verily the Railway is the fundamental instrument of transportation and therefore the foundation of industrial development. That is why Dr. Sun Yat-sen advocated, at the very beginning of the Republic, the construction of a 100,000-mile railway network. His advocacy has taught us that without executing the Railway policy, material construction in China will be impossible.\n\nThe National Government, acting on Dr. Sun's instruction, established on November 1st, 1928, under the Executive Yuan the Ministry of Railways to take charge of the Railways in the Country and to consummate Dr. Sun's plan. Mr. Sun Fo was appointed Minister; Messrs. Lien Sing-hai and Wang Cheng were appointed Political and Administrative Vice-Ministers respectively. On the day of the Ministry's inauguration, it consisted, as provided in the Organic Law promulgated by the National Government, four departments, namely, the Department of General Affairs, the Department of Railways Administration, the Finance Department and the Department of Planning and Construction with Messrs. Chen Yen Chun, J. K. Choy, Wang Cheng and Y. S. Chun as Directors of the respective departments. Messrs. C. S. Liu, T. C. Yen, Kuan Keng Lin and J. Usang Ly were appointed Counsellors.\n\nHaving taken over from the Ministry of Communications all duties pertaining to Railways, the Chiaotung University in Shanghai, the Civil Engineering College in Tangshan, the College of Railway Administration in Peking and a chain of Railway Middle and Primary Schools established in the various Railway Centers for the education of the children of Railway employees; the Ministry set to work. Minister Sun Fo introduced in the Central Political Council of the Kuomintang two Administrative Policies; i.e., the Centralization of Railway Administration and the Independence of Railway Accounting System. Having passed these resolutions, the Central Political Council ordered the Ministries of War and Railways to execute these policies in full. The Railway enterprise in China began a new life.\n\nOn account of the lack of Railway experts in China, Dr. J. A. L. Waddell was retained as Consulting Engineer, Mr. J. J. Mantell as Adviser on Railway Management, Mr. R. S. Norman as Legal Adviser and Mr. Wm. B. Poland as financial Adviser to the Ministry.\n\nFor the sake of facilitating business transaction, an office of the Ministry was established at Shanghai with Mr. Tieh-sun Chen as Director.\n\nSo much for organization; let us now come to the administration of the various Railways.\n\nSince Nanking became the National Capital, the political and economic importance of the Nanking-Shanghai and the Shanghai-Hangchow-Ningpo Railways has gradually grown. Mr. J. K. Choy was appointed to concurrently take charge of these administrations.\n\nThe Peiping-Mukden and Peiping-Suiyuan Railways, being trunk lines of the North-East, have suffered great damages from internal strife of late. They urgently need rehabilitation. Mr. Wang Cheng was appointed to currently take charge of them.\n\nThe Lunghai and the Tatung-Chengtu Railways were formerly administered by Directorates-General. Upon the recommendation of the Ministry, the Executive Yuan abolished the above-mentioned offices so that the administration of these Railways would be under one head instead of two.\n\nThe settlement of the Tsinan Incident called for reorganization of the Kiao-Tsi Railway. Consequently, the Kiao-Tsi Railway Managing Commission was established with Dr. T. C. Yen as Chairman of the Commission.\n\nLater, with its head office removed to Peiping, the Hankow-Peiping Railway was renamed as Peiping-Hankow Railway. Mr. W. T. Liu was appointed Managing Director.\n\nMessrs. Pan Ting-hsien, Sun Ho-kao and Faung Ta-chih were appointed Managing Directors of the Peiping-Suiyuan, the Tientsin-Pukow Railways and the Hunan-Hupei Section of the Canton-Hankow Railway respectively.\n\nThen three Railways in Kwangtung came under the actual control of the Ministry. The Canton-Samsui Railway was amalgamated into the Canton-Hankow Railway with Mr. Chen Yin Wen as Managing Director, while Mr. Liu Chiu-ko was made Managing Director of the Canton-Kowloon Railway.\n\nUpon the request of the Kiangsi Provincial Government, the Ministry took over the administration of the Nanchang-Kiukiang Railway. Mr. Kung Hsueh Shui was appointed Managing Director.\n\nAfter the inauguration of the Ministry, the Ministry of Communications, acting on the order of the State Council, transferred to the Ministry of Railways all duties pertaining to National Highways. A National Highway Planning Commission was organized with three Commissioners appointed by the Ministry and one representative from each of the Provincial Construction Departments and Mr. Y. S. Chun as Chairman. It completed its task of planning in three months.\n\nThe Ministry of Communications also handed over its European office at Paris which served as an organ to arrange for international through traffic. Upon taking charge of this office, the Ministry appointed Mr. K. Y. Woo as Director and concurrently as Delegate to the International Railway Union representing the Peiping-Liaoning, the Peiping-Hankow and the Tientsin-Pukow Railways.\n\nFor the classification of goods and the determination of tariffs, the Advisory Committee on Fares, Rates and Classification of Goods was appointed with the Director of the Department of Railway Administration as Chairman of the Committee.\n\nIn order to unify the accounting and statistical systems of the various Railways, the Advisory Committee on the Unification of Railway Accounts and Statistics was appointed with the Director of the Finance Department as Chairman.\n\nAn Editorial Committee on Railway Rules and Regulations was also appointed. Vice-Minister Lien Sing-hai serves as Chairman.\n\nTo eliminate corruption in the purchasing of Railway materials, a Purchasing Commission, a Commission on Selection of Tenders and a Commission on Inspection of Purchased Materials were organized. Later, the three Commissions were amalgamated into the Purchasing Commission with Messrs. Hu Chi-hsien, Tieh-san Chen and Chen Chiu An as members of the Standing Committee. Three Sub-committees were appointed to Peiping, Hankow and Canton.\n\nFor the training of qualified personnel for Railway Service, the improvement of the existing Railway Schools and the education of the low-grade staff and laborers now in active service, the Committee on Railway Education was organized with at first Mr. Y. S. Chun and later Mr. Kuan Keng Lin as Chairman.\n\nMore than fifty years have elapsed since China first adopted modern means of communication, but no complete and reliable record of the History of Communications is available. Since the organization of a Committee to compile a history of communications under the auspices of the Bureau of Compilation and Translation in the defunct Peking Government in 1922, the history has not been completed although several changes had already taken place. The Ministry, in cooperation with the Ministry of Communications, organized the Committee for Compiling the History of Communications with Mr. Kuan Keng Lin as Chairman and Mr. Chang Hsin Cheng, a division chief of the Ministry of Communications, as Editor-in-Chief.\n\nIn last September, Vice-Minister Wang Cheng resigned on account of poor health. Mr. J. Usang Ly was appointed to succeed him. Meanwhile, Mr. Hu Chi-hsien was appointed Director of the Finance Department, Dr. T. C. Yen was transferred to be Chief Technical Expert. Messrs. Liang Han Chau, F. K. Sah and Dr. King Cheng-yang were appointed Counsellors.\n\nNot long after, Mr. J. K. Choy was sent to Europe to study Railway conditions and problems. Mr. F. K. Sah was made acting Director of the Department of Railway Administration and Mr. Hu Chi-hsien was appointed to concurrently take charge of the Administration of the Nanking-Shanghai and Shanghai-Hangchow-Ningpo Railways.\n\nThe Peiping-Mukden Railways was renamed as Peiping-Liaoning Railway with Mr. Kao Chi Yi appointed Managing Director. The unification of administration in the Peiping-Liaoning Railway was effected.\n\nFor one year after the establishment of the Ministry, no serious change in organization took place. But being newly established, the division of duties inside the Ministry worked more or less on a trial basis. As the Ministry goes on, experience calls for reorganization. Therefore, on the 18th of last November, the National Government promulgated the revised Organic Law of the Ministry. In the new organization, the Ministry is composed of the following departments and bureaus:\n\n1. The Counsellors' Office.\n\n2. The Secretariat.\n\n3. The Department of General Affairs, with Mr. Chen Yen Chun as Director.\n\n4. The Department of Traffic and Operation with Mr. Kuan Keng Lin as Acting Director.\n\n5. The Finance Department with Mr. Hu Chi-hsien as Director.\n\n6. The Engineering Department with Mr. F. K. Sah as Director.\n\n7. The Railway Through Traffic Administration with Mr. Kuan Keng Lin as Acting Director.\n\n8. The Bureau of Statistics with Mr. F. K. Mok as Director.\n\n9. The Railway Health Service with Dr. S. M. Woo as Director.",

        "content_text": "# TRAFFIC IN WOMEN AND CHILDREN.\n\n## COMMISSION ARRIVES IN HONG KONG.\n\nThe commission of enquiry into the traffic in women and children in the East arrived in Hong Kong on Saturday. Any person or organisation wishing to meet the commission is requested to communicate with the Secretary, Mr. W. von Schmieden at the Peninsula Hotel.\n\nInternational collaboration in the combat against the traffic in women and children has only been in existence for about 30 years. On several occasions the Assembly of the League of Nations has expressed the hope that it would be possible to extend the enquiries to countries where no enquiry had yet taken place. In pursuance of this recommendation the Secretary-General of the League communicated with Governments in the Near, Middle and Far East and asked whether they would be prepared to accept and co-operate in an enquiry of this nature, it being understood that enquiries would be strictly confined to the international aspect of the question.\n\nChina, France, Great Britain, India, Japan, the Netherlands, Persia, Portugal, Siam and the United States stated that they were prepared to authorise such an enquiry in their territories.\n\n### Personnel of Commission.\n\nThe League of Nations has entrusted this enquiry in the countries of the East to a travelling commission of three members. They are:- Mr. Bascom Johnson, American, Chairman; Dr. Alma Sundquist, Swedish; and Mr. Karol Pindor, Polish. Mr. Bascom Johnson carried out the previous enquiry in Europe and America; Madame Sundquist is a well-known physician who has specially interested herself in women's social questions in her own country; and Mr. Pindor is a diplomat who has spent 25 years of his life in various Asiatic countries.\n\nIn each of the countries to be visited the Government has appointed an official representative who will receive the commission and act as the channel through which all official information will be obtained.\n\nThe commission arrived in the East at the end of October where it intends to spend 18 months visiting the various countries and conducting its enquiry. On its return to Geneva the commission will draw up a report for submission to the League of Nations giving the results of its enquiry.\n\n## ARSON TRIAL AT SESSIONS.\n\n### FATHER AND SON AMONG THE ACCUSED.\n\n#### ALLEGED CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD.\n\nAllegations of an attempt to set fire to a building in order to defraud insurance companies were made when the trial opened at the Criminal Sessions on Monday of three men, including a father and his son.\n\nThe trial was before the Acting Chief Justice (Mr. Justice Wood) and a jury comprising Messrs. J. L. McPherson (foreman), S. Gidley, James Sloan, F. Wilkin-son, H. J. Howard, Louis Kai Hing and Ip Fook Ling.\n\nMr. Somerset Fitzroy, appearing for the Crown, stated that the premises had been preserved exactly as found, with festoons of shavings and palm leaves, spread out for the purpose of burning the place down. In outlining the case for the Crown, Mr. Fitzroy said that three persons, of whom the second accused was one, interviewed the owner of the premises on July 8 and they took the whole house. As soon as they took possession they set to work to prepare for the fire. A staircase on the ground floor was pulled down and altered. Cubicles and cooklofts were erected on the premises.\n\nThey obtained insurance on the premises and stock-in-trade with two companies to the value of $31,000 - the larger part of which was the stock-in-trade, which consisted of Chinese medicines.\n\n### Petrol and Palm Leaves.\n\nCounsel went on to say that the accused secured other premises at 63, Connaught Road West, first accused taking it over, and described other incidents which he said went to show that the new place was to be used as a \"bolt hole\" when No. 77 burnt down. Fifteen bales of palm leaves, petrol and kerosene distributed about the place in jars were found. Counsel also exhibited some samples of the palm leaves and a camp bed burnt at one end.\n\nDescribing what took place about midnight, Mr. Fitzroy said that a policeman rushed to the house on hearing a whistle blown by a man in the street. The policeman succeeded in smothering the flames with a blanket which he found on the camp bed. While this was going on the third accused was seen in the street with account books under his arm in company with another man. They were chased, but only the accused was caught.\n\nThe plan failed because there was a gap left in the chain of inflammable material, and the quick action of the policeman also frustrated it. Further, the alarm was sounded before the place was well alight. Counsel explained that the Superintendent of the Fire Brigade had expressed the opinion that in a matter of a few minutes the premises would have been a seething mass of flames and adjoining houses would have been in serious danger.\n\n### Identification Difficulty.\n\nThe owner of the premises, who was called as a witness, said that three men called on him to rent the house. After a close look at the prisoners, witness said that he thought the second accused was one of the men.\n\nCross-examined by Mr. Jenkin, witness said that he attended an identification parade, but he could not recognise the second accused on that occasion.\n\nAt the second day's hearing, a witness named Leung Luk Tsun was subjected to a lengthy cross-examination on the subject of an alleged conversation which he stated took place between him and the first defendant.\n\n| Witness Statement | Cross-examination |\n| --- | --- |\n| Witness said that they met at a restaurant next to the Wing On Company on August 25 or 26, when the defendant asked him about the rules of insurance in Hong Kong. | Mr. Jenkin: What light did you think you could throw on the path of justice ?—I wanted to assist in the arrest of the defendant, not because he owed me $500, but because of the $2,500 owing to my friend on the promissory note of which I was a witness, and I was being blamed for defendant's default. |\n| He replied that the rules were about the same in every case and that defendant could get them by applying to the companies. Later, the defendant asked if the commission of arson was a very serious crime. Witness replied that it would mean ten years' imprisonment. | Counsel reminded the witness that when he gave evidence in the Police Court he stated that the conversation about arson took place on September 20. Asked to explain why he should now say that the conversation took place on August 25 or 26, witness said that a mistake was made in the Police Court in writing down the date which he gave according to the Chinese calendar. |\n| Witness concluded his evidence by saying that he had come forward as a voluntary witness, adding that first defendant owes him money. | The insurance was effected on September 5 and I put it to you that it is impossible for the defendant to ask you on September 20 about the methods of insurance?- No, the conversation took place in August as I could not find the defendant after September 1 on which date I was to get the $500. |\n\nWitness said that he came to know defendant in connection with a small ship known as the Wah San which was sold to the defendant. The purchase price was $7,500 in cash and $2,250 in addition, for which a promissory note was issued in favour of the seller, who was a friend of witness. It was agreed that defendant should pay witness $500 after completing the deal at the end of August. The money was payable on September 1, but witness had not yet been paid. Witness had a writ issued on September 7 or 8, but the defendant could not be found.",

ANOTHER BANDIT COUP. PRIEST ESCAPES OVER WALL. LADY RELEASED. \n\nHankow. Oct. 25. \n\nA Catholic Father who escaped from Loshan, in South Honan, ten minutes before the entry of bandits, reports that the Rev. K. N. Tvedt, and Miss Evenson, of the Lutheran United Mission, failed to escape and, it is presumed, were captured.—Reuter. \n\n### In Bandits' Hands. \n\nPeking. Oct. 25. The U.S. Consul in Hankow received a letter on October 24 from Luahan, signed by Father Tvedt and Miss Evenson, dated October 8, stating that they were in the hands of brigands belonging to the First Red Army, who were holding them \"because of financial difficulties.\" The Reds demanded $100,000 ransom. \n\nThe Rev. Tvedt says that he is a Norwegian subject, though in an American organisation. \n\nIt is understood that two American Catholics are registered as being at Loshan—Thomas M. Megan and Joseph V. Henkels. No definite news of them has been received, but it is known that Megan was here on October 15. \n\nOne Catholic priest climbed over the city wall just as the bandits were entering the town. He is believed to be one of these two.—Reuter. \n\n### Lady Captive Released. \n\nHankow, Oct. 26. The American Consulate has received a telegram stating that Miss Evenson has been released and has arrived at Sinjang. The Rev. Mr. Tvedt is still held captive.—Reuter. \n\n### Missionary Freed. \n\nPeking, Oct. 25. The Italian Legation announces that it has received information that Father Brugnetti, Italian Catholic Mission at Nanyangfu, in south-west Honan, has been liberated. \n\nFather Brugnetti was captured by brigands some time ago. The Legation made representations to the Chinese Government on the matter.—Reuter \n\n## POLICE PENSIONS. \n\n### New Ordinance to Be Introduced. REMOVING ANOMALY. \n\n**SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST.

It is believed at Taiyuanfu that he intends to collect armies and march to Sianfu. \n\nIt is also believed that Feng Yu-hsiang, Yen Hsi-shan and Wang Ching-wei are still working together and have decided to attempt to hold Shansi, Shensi, and Kansu against all comers. \n\nWang Ching-wei is at present living at a hotel in Taiyuanfu, and contemplates setting up his home there. \n\nThe discipline among the returned Shansi soldiers is bad. Recently 30 tried to force their way into a German's house, and were got rid of with difficulties. They said that they wanted accommodation. The soldiers are protesting against living in barracks outside the city, and desire billets in houses in the city.—Reuter \n\n### Marshals to Meet. \n\nNanking, Oct. 25. The Central News Agency learns that Chiang Kai-shek and Chang Hsueh-liang will meet shortly to discuss outstanding political questions, after which they will issue a joint circular telegram outlining their programme.

Riotous scenes were witnessed late last night in Kameido, a suburb of Tokyo, during a clash between the police and factory workers of the Toyo Muslin Co., who have been on strike for the past five weeks. \n\nWhile the Police were attempting to suppress groups of strikers who were parading the streets, singing Labour songs, other strikers in the upper storeys of neighbouring buildings started throwing stones on the Police below. \n\nThe ensuing fight necessitated the temporary suspension of traffic, as the strikers started stoning passing trams, six of which were damaged. \n\nThe disturbance was finally quelled after the arrest of 150 strikers.

SIX MEN WOUNDED. \n\nManila, Oct. 25. \n\nThe Chinese Communists last night attacked, mobbed, and stabbed prominent members of the Chinese Nationalist organisation in Manila. \n\nSix were wounded and taken to hospital. Two of them were in critical condition. \n\nThe victims include Mr. Gan Bu-hong, the proprietor of the largest Chinese cigarette factory here as well as a school principal. \n\nBoth Mr. Ong Chuan-seng, leaders of the Kuomintang. \n\nThe first outbreak was believed to be a tong war, but later the victims asserted that the motives for the attack were purely political, having followed repeated threats. \n\nPolice patrols are heavy and the constabulary may assist in quelling the trouble since Chinatown is in an uproar.—Reuter. \n\n## CORRESPONDENCE. \n\n### The Boxer Indemnity. \n\n(To the Editor, S. C. M. Post.) \n\nSir, The suggestion as put forward in your leader dated the 11th inst. referring to the employment of the entire or part of the grant to the Hongkong University from the Boxer Indemnity Fund for health purposes is certainly a rational and timely proposal. \n\nIt will be recalled that the Willingdon Delegation, following the investigation of conditions in China, recommended the allocation of 17% of the Fund for \"education in medicine and public health and grants to hospitals.\" Viewed from various angles, and laying aside, pro tem, the question of the University's merit to secure such a windfall, your suggestion, if carried out, would perhaps \"satisfy all demands.\" \n\nAlthough details are not published pending the Chinese and British approval of the Governments' agreement which Dr. C. T. Wang and Sir Miles Lampson have recently concluded for the satisfactory disposal of the Fund, yet it may safely be conjectured that the plan suggested by the Willingdon Delegation will not be closely followed as it is an open secret that the bulk of the money has already been definitely decided upon railway development enterprise. In other words, the hope of the allocation of the 17% of the Fund for health purposes is extremely remote. \n\nLocated in a part of the world where health conditions are deplorable, surely there is no better way for the University of using the grant than to employ it for scientific researches and the improvement of public health. For instance, at one of the Sanitary Board meetings a few months ago, the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services was in favour of the Government making arrangements with the authorities of Sheklung Leper Settlement to take charge of lepers from Hongkong as a result of the total absence of a leper hospital in the Colony. As pointed out in my previous letter, the carrying out of the scheme would mean the increase of the already teeming leper population of the greater part of the island, and only a few garrison troops are stationed in the west half of Hainan. So in the eastern part of the island no open outbreak of Communism is taking place, although guerilla warfare is carried on, as evidenced by the wounded men being brought to Hoihow hospitals, day by day. West of Hoihow troops are stationed in Kin Kong, Fuk-san and Lami-kow but in numbers they are not nearly as strong as the Communist gang which rules the forest near Fuk-San. On Oct. 18 this band of Reds attacked Kin Kong, which is district city and the largest town in Chen-mai district. By surprise attack they gained the east suburbs of the town but the troops got some machine guns into position and it is reported that the Reds were driven off with heavy loss. The Reds were said to number all the way from 600 to 1,000 but they had only two machine guns to defend by 300 troops. \n\nSomething has, therefore, to be done to solve this and similar problems satisfactorily for the \"mutual benefit\" of both China and the British Colony. In view of the existing needs, the employment of the money for purposes as suggested by you is, and as many will doubtless agree, a legitimate proposal. \n\nJ. A. LEE. \n\n## DELIBERATE LIES IN COURT. \n\n### Witness Fined for Perjury in Assault Case. DEFENDANT DISCHARGED. \n\nThe acquittal of the accused and the fining of one of the witnesses of the prosecution for perjury was the final result of the case in which Herbert Percival, stoker of H.M.S. Herald, was alleged before Mr. Lindsell on Saturday to have assaulted a barber of Wanchai. \n\nThe defendant was alleged to have obtained a packet of cigarettes from the complainant's stall and when asked for payment struck the seller. \n\nFurther evidence was given by Chan Fook, a barber in the complainant's employ. After corroborative evidence was given, the witness was questioned by the Magistrate as to a cut on the defendant's cheek. \n\nHis Worship: Defendant's cheek was cut open; can you explain that? \n\nWitness: I don't know. \n\nYou offer no explanation for that at all? Was there any trouble with anyone of the naval men except the one you saw take the cigarettes?—No. \n\nYou do not explain how his cheek was cut open? I don't know. \n\nAny one strike him?—I did not see any one strike him. \n\nWas he knocked down?—Possibly; he may have been. Did you see him knocked down? No. \n\nYou must have seen it, you were there. He may have fallen on the ground. \n\nHis Worship pointed out to the witness that it had been proved beyond doubt that the defendant had had his cheek cut. The witness replied, \"I saw defendant knock against a glass show case as he struck the complainant.\" \n\nHis Worship reprimanded the witness and pointed out to him that a few minutes before he had told the Court that he had no idea what had happened to the defendant's cheek. \"Why do you lie like that?\" sternly asked his Worship. \"A minute ago you said you didn't know; you did not see it. Now speak the truth! Did you see him cut his cheek or not?\" \n\nWitness: I did not see him.\" \n\nHis Worship: First you said you did not, then you said you did and now you say you did not again. Which is true?—I did not see. \n\nNow that was just an absolute lie that the showcase was broken? \n\nIt was broken. \n\nDetective Sergeant Clark informed his Worship that a show case had been broken, but if the defendant had fallen into it as alleged by the witness he would have had his face severely cut. \n\nHis Worship: How do you say that showcase came to be broken? \n\nWitness: A piece of the stool flew against the glass. \n\nHe (defendant) did not fall against it as you said a minute ago? No. \n\nThen you told a deliberate lie just now when you said he banged against it. You told three different stories. I fine you $10; first one thing and then another. You keep contradicting yourself. Fined $10 or seven days. \n\n### Defendant Discharged. \n\nThe Gazette contains the draft of an Ordinance to amend the Police Ordinance 1900. \n\nThis provides that Section 17 of the Police Ordinance, 1900, be repealed and the following section substituted therefor: \n\n17-(1) It shall be lawful for the Governor in Council to make regulations for the granting of pensions to members of the Force, in respect of service in the Force, and to determine in special cases where the regulations may be inapplicable or to require modification, the amount (if any) of the pension, the terms on which it shall be granted and the manner in which it shall be paid. (2) Pensions granted under this Ordinance shall be paid out of the general revenue. \n\nThe Objects and Reasons state:-Under section 17 of the Police Force Ordinance, 1900, the Governor in Council not only regulates the general conditions on which and the manner in which pensions are to be granted to members of the Force, but determines the question of granting a pension and the amount thereof in each particular case. There does not seem to be any sufficient reason why members of the Police Force should be thus singled out from other pensionable public servants, or why the Governor in Council should have to deal with each case of retirement especially where the pension is a mere matter of calculation. \n\n## HIS LAST FLING. \n\n### Suicide's Open Letter to the World. \n\nShanghai, Oct. 25.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1931.\n\nCHINA UNITY.\n\nOrders to Wind Up Canton Government?\n\nSOUTH'S OPTIMISM.\n\nAnticipating Nanking negotiations for peace, making preparations for the dissolution of the Canton Government on November 1.\n\nCanton officials are said to be of success the\n\nNanking, Oct. 14.\n\nGovernment organs for the control of narcotic drugs are to be established by the Ministry of Interior, according to a resolution adopted at yesterday's meeting of the Kuo-Wa-Hui-I (State Council) pursuant to a recommendation from the National Opium-Suppression Commission.\n\nThe Wah Kiu Yat Po, which publishes a message to this effect from Shanghai, says that Canton Government departmental heads have been instructed to proceed with the work of winding up their departments within two weeks' time.\n\nThe unfinished work of these departments will be transferred to Nanking, where it is expected that several of the high officials of the Southern Government will be invited to administer departments in the new Government.\n\nSouthern Optimism.\n\nThe establishment of the proposed new organs is expressly provided for by Regulations governing the Control of Narcotic Drugs recently promulgated by the National Government.\n\nThe main function of these new organs will be to see that narcotic drugs are limited to scientific and medical uses and that the sale of narcotic drugs devoted to purposes other than the authorized ones is strictly suppressed.—Kua Min.\n\nTHE DRUG TRAFFIC.\n\nChina Makes New Plans for Suppression.\n\nNanking, Oct. 14.\n\n...\n\nSCIENCE CONGRESS.\n\nScientists to be Invited to China.\n\nTHE TSANG FOO VILLAS MURDER TRIAL.\n\nDISCHARGE OF TWO DEFENDANTS YESTERDAY AFTERNOON.\n\nVICTIM'S TERRIBLE INJURIES.\n\nTwo of the twelve defendants in the Tsang Foo Villas murder trial were discharged in the course of yesterday's proceedings before Mr. Fraser at the Kowloon Magistracy.\n\nThe evidence given against these two men was such, his Worship said, that no jury would convict.\n\nEvidence given of the injuries received by the Japanese showed that the bodies in all cases were mutilated.\n\nThe injuries received by the amah of sixteen were particularly brutal.\n\nFURTHER DECISIONS TO-DAY?\n\nRACIAL VIRILITY.\n\nSir L. Hill on Birth Control.\n\nSURNAMES.\n\nOur Own and Other Peoples.\n\nDOWNFALL OF EMPIRES. CURIOSITIES OF ORIGIN\n\nAt the annual conference of the Sanitary Inspectors' Association at Bridlington, Sir Leonard Hill, in his presidential address, said that the sanitary inspectors' Association at Bridlington, Sir Leonard Hill, in his presidential address, said that the birth rate was now the subject of intensive propaganda among the masses of the people, and the no-child or one-child home was becoming the rule.\n\nAlthough the unskilled continued as yet to breed more than the skilled, birth-control was practised in every class of society.\n\nIn consequence, between 1921-31 the population of Great Britain had increased hardly more than in the 10 years 1911-21, which included the War, when about a million young men were killed and several millions listed and were taken away from family life.\n\nThe infant mortality rate had fallen from 167 per 1,000 births at the end of last century to 60 in 1930, but the saving so effected compensated very little for the enormous drop in the birth rate.\n\nThe annual increase of births over deaths per 1,000 living was 12 at the end of last century, and in 1929 it was under three, so very shortly the population would be stationary; the proportion of older persons increasing as children became scarcer.\n\nThree children per family were required to make good the losses and keep up the population.\n\nOne-child families meant halving the population—\n\n(By Walter G. Bell, in the Daily Telegraph).\n\n\"John ate chyldren.\" So he did, did he? A husbandman was this John; one goes out to the Fen country around Huntingdon for \"Richard ate Forty\"—a ferocious monster when at table.\n\nReading old documents from days when villeinage flourished in England, one experiences shocks like these not infrequently.\n\nThen consciousness comes that all that is meant is \"at\" or \"off,\" and the ogre is really the quite inoffensive John at Chiltern.\n\nThe other is of Ford—to find him you at the ford.\n\nSpelling was apt to vary with each clerk who wrote, and much corruption crept in.\n\nBut can one account by geography alone for \"Thomas atte Hell,\" a Suffolk man? He was the man at the hill.\n\nBARONET WITH A WHIP.\n\nFined for Striking Two \"Noisy\" Young Men.\n\nROADSIDE GATHERING.\n\nSir Christopher Furness, Bart., of Netherbyres, Ayton, Berwickshire, was fined 10s. at Eyemouth on a charge of assaulting two young men by striking them with a whip.\n\nMr. A. Carnegie, prosecuting, said that on August 14, at night, a band of young men were congregated on the road between Eyemouth and Ayton.\n\nOne started to play a mouthorgan and the others started to dance, and no doubt they were a bit hilarious.\n\nSir Christopher approached them and struck George Todd Dougal, of Eyemouth, across the back with a whip.\n\nThe others, with the exception of George Collin, also of Eyemouth, ran away, and Sir Christopher struck Collin across the face with a whip.\n\nFor the defence it was submitted that Sir Christopher was ill and that the noise had so upset him that he had impulsively sought his own remedy.\n\nThe chairman said that this mitigated very much the seriousness of the offence, but there was no excuse for Sir Christopher taking the law into his own hands.\n\nSir Christopher is 31, and the third baronet.\n\nHis father, Sir Stephen Wilson Furness, succeeded Sir Christopher Furness, who was Chairman of Furness, Withy and Co., Ltd., and Liberal M.P. for Hartlepool 1910-14.\n\nAt this juncture, Mr. White-Smith asked for Richard\n\nOur forenames are mostly much older than our surnames.\n\nWhen the Domesday Book accounts for some 283,000 inhabitants in all of England that was surveyed—it sufficed to indicate John by his place of residence, or as John the son of Richard, or very frequently John the servant of his named master; often, too, as John Sessmith, distinguished by his trade.\n\nSince names of persons are of first importance, and their indication is no longer so simple as this, whom he succeeded in 1914, was\n\nLegal Attitude.\n\nOdd that while names are supremely important in the transaction of life, the law has paid little or no head.\n\nIt will offend a man's title to his own name when there has been fraudulent misuse, but in nothing else.\n\nMen and women may call themselves just what they please, change their names as often as they like; the law is not concerned.\n\nCustom ordains that on marriage a woman shall adopt her husband's surname, signing her patronymic at birth and on the marriage register, but there is no legal enforcement of it.\n\nThe first witness called yesterday was Dr. J. Smalley, who testified that certain Japanese were admitted to the Kowloon Hospital on the night of September 26.\n\nThe first to be admitted entered the hospital at about 11 p.m. and the last one at about 12.45 a.m.\n\nIn all cases, the Police brought in the arrested.\n\nThe eighth was arrested in a hut in Po Kong Village at about midnight.\n\nHe had a wound on his head, which he said he had received from the military.\n\nWitness examined Shiro Yamashita, the boy of four, whose skull was fractured.\n\nThere were multiple injuries, and although he was conscious, he was obviously dying.\n\nNothing could be done for him and he never recovered.\n\nHe was about 60 feet from the gate of Tsang Foo Villas.\n\nThis man was arrested about ten minutes after the eighth defendant was arrested.\n\nNiyoji Yamashita, the boy of nine, had multiple injuries, his skull and left thigh bone being fractured.\n\nHis condition was very bad.\n\nHe was given medical treatment, but passed away at 1 a.m.\n\nSumiko Yamaguchi, the Japanese amah of 16, had multiple injuries including a scalp wound, while her skull was fractured.\n\nShe had many bruises all over her body.\n\nDr. Smalley then described her other injuries.\n\nHer wounds were inflicted by blunt weapons such as sticks or poles.\n\nMiyo Yamashita, the old lady, had a fractured skull, while two irregular lacerated wounds were growing up in Africa with education of the native races.\n\nAlleged Street Incident.\n\nA Chinese constable, B632, said he was on duty between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. outside Tsang Foo Villas on September 27.\n\nWhilst he was on duty, he met with three men, of whom defendant was one, talking near the wall of Tsang Foo Villas.\n\nTwo policemen had been posted there.\n\nEn-vene Chen asked why ten\", Tsai Yuan-pei, C. C. Wu (Western Hills clique) conferred to represent China at the Fifth Convention of the Pacific Conference to be held next May in Canada.\n\nSince the institute has been designated to represent China at the fifth convention, a preparatory committee of 11 experts has been appointed to attend to all preliminary matters.\n\nMr. Ewen cites the case, in the year 1857, of a Mr. Bedbug who changed his name to Bowditch.\n\nA Satisfactory Conclave.\n\nShanghai, Oct. 22.\n\nMarshal Chiang Kai-shek and Messrs. Hu Han-min, Wang Ching-wei, Sun Fo, Li Chi-sen, Li Shih-shan, Tsai Yuan-pei, C. C. Wu (Western Hills clique) conferred yesterday morning for two hours.\n\nThe entire peace mission proceeded to the residence of Mr. Hu Han-min immediately upon their arrival and it was while there that Mr. Wang Ching-wei and the peace delegates will leave for Nanking immediately after a meeting with General Chiang Kai-shek.\n\nStatements of Defendants.\n\nThe 12 defendants made various statements to Mr. Whyte-Smith, A.S.P., and Sub-Inspector Murphy.\n\nMr. Whyte-Smith said that was all the evidence against this defendant, your Worship.\n\nHis Worship said that the evidence is such that no jury would convict.\n\nHe accordingly discharged the sixth and twelfth defendants.\n\nThe fourth defendant said he went so near to Tsang Foo Villas because he saw his brother had been injured and he went inside the house to see what was going on.\n\nThe fifth defendant, a boy of 15, said he was there to pick him up.\n\nThe sixth defendant, another boy of 15, said he had nothing to do with the murder.\n\nThe seventh defendant referred to a bandaged arm.\n\nThe eighth defendant, who was arrested in his hut that night, said he had never been out of his hut that evening.\n\nThe ninth defendant, who was represented by Mr. F. X. D'Almada, Sr., said he knew absolutely nothing.\n\nThe tenth, eleventh, and twelfth defendants made the same statement.\n\nTo Leave for Nanking.\n\nNanking, Oct. 22.\n\nMr. Wang Ching-wei and the peace delegates will leave for Nanking immediately after a meeting with General Chiang Kai-shek.\n\nCanton's Reservations.\n\nCanton, Oct. 22.\n\nInterviewed as to the reliability of the report that the Canton Government will be wound up within two weeks' time, a certain member of the Council has remarked that this is premature.\n\nThe Government is still uncertain whether the overthrow of dictatorial government will be effected, and the Canton Government must remain until this end has been attained.\n\nConditional Dissolution.\n\nCanton Army Changes.\n\nGen. Yen Yin-nai, Commander of the 1st New Division has tendered his resignation, and asked for troops to be disbanded.\n\nThe Government has decided to comply.\n\nGen. Ye will be reappointed as a staff officer.\n\nGen. Chan Chatong has decided to enlarge the Peace Preservation Corps into a brigade with Mr. Chan Chang-po as commander.—Rensha.\n\nMr. Eugene Chen.\n\nCanton, Oct. 22.\n\nAn extraordinary session of the Kuomintang C.E.C. to-day formally appointed Mr. Eugene Chen as delegate to the Shanghai peace parley.\n\nMr. Chen will take a leading part in discussing Sino-Foreign relations, particularly Manchurian affairs.—Central Press.\n\nAll the Talents.\n\nShanghai, Oct. 22.\n\nGood progress is being made by the leaders representing the various factions of the Kuomintang for the formation of the new National Government at Nanking representative of \"all the talents.\"\n\nIn this connexion, Mr. Wang Ching-wei, the Kuomintang Leftist leader, who is heading the Canton peace mission of five members, conferred yesterday morning for two hours with Mr. Hu Han-min, the leader of the Nanking Conservatives.\n\nThe entire peace mission proceeded to the residence of Mr. Hu Han-min immediately upon their arrival and it was while there that Mr. Wang Ching-wei and the peace delegates held a lengthy discussion of possible cases, but as a critic has pointed out, the name appears to have had little or nothing to do with either \"shake\" (verb) or \"spear.\"\n\nMASSAGE.\n\nMR. & MRS.

(Continued from page 11) considering strong action separately or jointly with Britain.\n\nThe New York Herald-Tribune says: \"There is every sign that a strong protest would be raised if the Japanese move within the Settlement.\"\n\nThe administration spokesmen have given an inferential warning that Japanese military action within the Settlement would be unwarranted and inexcusable.\n\nRumours of a British Note.\n\nNew York, Jan. 26.\n\nIt is learned from Tokio that the British Government has sent a Note to the Japanese Government presumably on the subject of extraterritoriality in China.\n\nA Flat Denial.\n\nLondon, Jan. 27. The Daily Telegraph's diplomatic correspondent states that British official circles yesterday flatly denied the reports from America alleging that the British Government had dispatched a Note to Japan anent Shanghai.\n\nFOR AUSTRALIA.\n\nTHE STRAITS TIMES, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 27, 1932.\n\nAir Base Machines to Fly To Port Darwin,\n\nThree flying boats from the Seletar Air Base are to make a flight in mid-March to Port Darwin, Australia.\n\nThe Straits Times was informed that nothing is yet fixed definitely. The crews will be selected later. The route will probably be via Banka, Tandjong Priok, Sourabaya, Bima, Timor Island, and on to Port Darwin. The return flight will be made in the first or second week of April.\n\nMAN AND WOMAN STABBED.\n\nAttempted Robbery At Pasir Panjang.\n\nShortly after one o'clock this morning, information of a robbery at the 84th milestone, Pasir Panjang Road, was received by the Orchard Road division police. Inspector Ratton and Inspector Goh went to the scene to find a Chinese and his wife suffering from stab wounds. The woman had a wound in her hand, while the husband had several stabs in the neck.\n\nTwo Chinese, it is said, armed with knives, attacked the inmates. On alarm being raised, the robbers got away. The proprietor is said to be in a critical condition.\n\nPOOR MR. HU HAN-MIN!\n\nStudents Pester His Life Out.\n\nHong Kong, Jan. 27. The Nanking University students who went to Canton from Hong Kong a day or two ago have decided to return to Hong Kong today in order to continue their efforts to persuade Mr. Hu Han-min to go north.-Sin Kuo Min. Reuter.\n\nGeneva, Jan. 26 (8.53 p.m.)\n\n\"Please Go Away!\"\n\nHong Kong, Jan. 27. Reuter learns authoritatively that there is no truth in the report that the League Council has decided to warn Japan regarding Shanghai.\n\nThe Council commissioned M. Paul Boncour to give moderating advice to both parties, and this was done when the Chinese and Japanese delegates were received separately.-Reuter.\n\nA number of students from the Chungshan University at Canton, who are appealing for funds on behalf of their military corps, arrived in Hong Kong yesterday on their way to Nanking. They proceeded to the residence of Mr. Hu Han-min in Hong Kong yesterday in order to endeavour to persuade him to go north, but Mr. Hu Han-min refused to receive a deputation from them.-Sin Kuo Min.\n\n'QUIET BUT TENSE.\" Chinese Entrenched On City Outskirts.\n\nShanghai, Jan. 26.\n\nThe situation is quiet but tense, and there is general apprehension lest the Japanese naval authorities should take the law into their own hands.\n\nSZECHWAN-KANSU. Situation Rapidly Developing.\n\nShanghai, Jan. 27. Reports to hand state that the situation as regards the Szechwan-Kansu hostilities is rapidly developing, but reliable details are not available. Meanwhile, Chinese troops are entrenching on the outskirts of Shanghai, notably in the neighbourhood of Hungjao Road, in the western district, which is a favourite foreign residential area. Reuter.\n\nShanghai, Jan. 27.\n\nThe 19th army, which is in the Shanghai area, is determined to fight the Japanese should the Japanese decide to take drastic measures in Shanghai.\n\nMartial law is being enforced every night around Shanghai.-Sin Kuo Min.\n\nA Significant Appointment.\n\nNanking, Jan. 26.\n\nVice-General Chan Ming-shu (the President of the Executive Yuan and Minister of Communications) has been appointed Foreign Minister in succession to Mr. Eugene Chen, who has resigned.-Reuter.\n\nThis is a most significant appointment since General Chan Ming-shu is a staunch supporter of Marshal Chiang Kai-shek, who is favouring a policy of conciliation towards Japan.\n\nPEKING AND SWATOW.\n\nJapanese Demands Closing Down of Newspapers.\n\nPeking, Jan. 26.\n\nThe Japanese Chargé d'Affaires has called on Marshal Chang Hsueh-lang and expressed strong indignation at an editorial regarding Korea printed on Jan. 23 by the Chinese-owned Peking Leader, the only English language daily in Peking.\n\nDeclaring that he was acting under the instructions of the Foreign Office, the Japanese Chargé d'Affaires demanded the permanent closing down of the Peking Leader, the arrest of the editor, and an apology.-Reuter.\n\nMayor of Swatow Defiant.\n\nHong Kong, Jan. 26.\n\nThe Japanese Consul at Swatow again interviewed the Mayor of Swatow on January 23 and peremptorily demanded the suppression of all newspapers in Swatow publishing news against Japan and the Japanese.\n\nHowever, the Mayor of Swatow declined to give any such promise.-Sin Kuo Min.\n\nJEHOL INVASION. Japanese Advance As Villages Burn.\n\nShanghai, Jan. 27.\n\nWest of the Liao-ho River, the main Japanese forces are continuing their drive northward up the Tatung Railway from Tahushan towards Tunglao.\n\nThey are still meeting with considerable resistance from Chinese volunteers, and severe fighting is stated to be in progress.\n\nThe Chinese volunteers have withdrawn to Hungloshan.\n\nThe Japanese advance northwards and into Jehol is being handicapped by reason of the fact that villages in the mountains are being set on fire. It is stated that the Chinese people who have their homes in these mountains are suffering miserably in consequence.\n\nGeneral Yu Hsueh-tsung has dispatched representatives to Tatung to welcome Marshal Wu Pei-fu. General Yu Hsueh-tsung was, at all events until recently, the garrison commander of the Peking and Tientsin area and commander of the first army of the North-Eastern Frontier Defence Force. Sin Kuo Min.\n\nVolunteers Attacking Tahushan.\n\nNanking, Jan. 27. Chinese volunteers are again counter-attacking Tahushan (between Sinmin and Kowpangtse on the Mukden-Peking Railway, where the Tatung branch line from Tungliao joins the main line).\n\nThe extent of the casualties is unknown. Sin Kuo Min.\n\nAeroplane Shot Down.\n\nNanking, Jan. 26. Fighting continues spasmodically on the Jehol frontier.\n\nThe Chinese volunteers have retreated to Hingcheng. It is reported that one Japanese plane was shot down by the volunteers. Sin Kuo Min.\n\nMarshal Wu and Yen.\n\nShanghai, Jan. 26. Marshal Wu Pei-fu is continuing his conference with Marshal Yen Shi-shan at Pati. It is understood that he is ready to proceed to the front at any time to fight against the Japanese.\n\nGeneral Choi Ting-kai is taking every precaution in the Shanghai and Nanking area.\n\nThe following have been elected office-bearers of the Siew Sin Sia Association, Singapore: President, Messrs.

        "content_text": "29\n\n1931.\n\n14\n\nANNEXE A.\n\nReport on the work of the Po Leung Kuk for the year\n\nThe Po Leung Kuk Society was founded in 1878 to aid in the detection and suppression of kidnapping, especially of girls and women, kidnapped in the interior and brought to Hong Kong for sale or emigration. Its name means \"institution for the protection of good women\". The initiative in its formation came from the Chinese themselves, and ever since, by subscription and personal service, they have continued to support it.\n\nThere is a paid Chinese staff—matron, two lady teachers, seven amahs and nurses, and two clerks who are secretaries to the managing committee. The Committee meets every evening from Monday to Friday at 7 p.m., the principal meeting of the week being held at 12 noon on Sunday. It not only manages the Po Leung Kuk but acts as an advisory committee to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs in all cases affecting women and children and Chinese family life generally. It corresponds when necessary with charitable institutions and private persons in various parts of China, traces parents of lost children, and shelters for the night any Chinese woman or girl who chooses to go. When parents and relations cannot be traced, the Committee arranges for the girls in its care to be given in marriage (never as concubines) or in adoption, always under bond and always with the consent of this office; and in every case, this office ascertains the girl's willingness before giving consent.\n\nIn addition to the annual Committee, there is a Board of Permanent Direction, which serves to maintain continuity of policy, and of which the Secretary for Chinese Affairs is the ex-officio chairman.\n\nThe following gentlemen were re-elected in April to serve as Managing Committee for the year:-\n\nMr. Tam Woon-tong,\n\nMr. Au Shiu-cho,\n\nMr. Ho I-cheong,\n\nMr. Lam Kau-mau,\n\nMr. Chan Kam-po,\n\nMr. Lai Tai-kai,\n\nMr. Lam Yam-chuen,\n\nMr. Chan Kim-tong,\n\nMr. Ip King-fan,\n\nMr. Iu Tak-chung,\n\nMr. Chan Hing-wa.\n\n15\n\nThe number of inmates of the Po Leung Kuk on 1st January, 1931, was 35, and during the year, 366 persons were admitted, as against 480 in 1930. The circumstances of admission and the action taken in regard to them are set out in Table A.\n\nTwo women and girls were admitted under warrant, and 364 were admitted without warrant. Thirty-three were lost children, twelve were accompanied by parents or guardians, and thirty-six were maid-servants or \"mui-tsai\" who had left their employers.\n\nOn leaving the Kuk, 159 women and girls were restored to husbands or other relatives, nineteen were sent to charitable institutions in China, one was given in adoption, one married, 112 released (three released under bond), twenty-one sent to Convent or Refuge, and five died. The number of inmates remaining in the Kuk on December 31st was forty-eight.\n\nThe institution was visited monthly by Justices of the Peace, Mr. A. G. Coppin and the Hon. Dr. S. W. Tso, O.B.E., who on no occasion found cause for adverse comment. The average monthly number of inmates was forty-seven.\n\nSeventy-three cases of sickness were sent to the Tung Wah Hospital for treatment, and of these, five died.\n\nMrs. R. H. Kotewall and Mrs. S. W. Tso paid regular visits of inspection during the year and took a great interest in the sewing, embroidery, and other handiwork of the girls. The development of this line of activity owes a great deal to Mr. Tam Woon-tong and his colleagues on the committee. Mrs. Tam Woon-tong also gave valuable assistance. An exhibition of handiwork took place in March and was opened by Lady Peel, whose sustained interest in the Kuk is much appreciated.\n\nThe question of moving the Kuk from its old site and rebuilding it in a new and improved form in more suitable surroundings had been under consideration for some years, but it was not until 1930 that Mr. Tam Woon-tong and his colleagues on the current annual Committee made a determined attack on the problem. A spacious site of two acres not far from the Tung Wah Eastern Hospital was granted by the Government with the approval of the Secretary of State, and Mr. Tam and his colleagues were brilliantly successful in raising funds for building and endowment.\n\nThe foundation stone of the new Kuk was laid by H.E. the Governor in March, 1931, and by the end of the year, the building was approaching completion. The response of the community to the persuasive efforts of Mr. Tam and his colleagues was...\n\n30",

I was willing to cohabit with Fung because we loved each other and had arranged to get married in April.\n\nI saw accused on the 24th Feb. I next saw him on the 6th March at a tea dance at the Repulse Bay Hotel. I next saw him on the morning of the 15th March at the Nathan Hotel. It may have been the 15th March. That morning I went to answer the telephone. It was not for me. As I returned to my room I saw accused in 403. He stared at me, but said nothing. It was about 6 a.m. I was occupying 404, with Fung.\n\nAccused was wearing a hat and his arms were folded. He was on a stool between the table and the door. The door was open; the greater part of it was.\n\nOn either the 20th or 21st March someone knocked at the door of my room, 404. Fung and I were inside. The person who knocked said \"I am A Letts there is a letter for you.\" Neither of us went to the door. I stopped Fung from opening it.\n\nOn the 24th March at about 6 p.m. I went to Shan Kwong Road, with Fung, to No.16, where a friend of ours, Chan Wing Yung, lived. I often went there. He was a friend of Fung and of the accused.\n\nAbout 7.30 p.m. Lau So, the amah, telephoned. I recognised her voice. Lau So was Tai Ching Kwun.\n\n(9)",

I was told to meet him at night at the Chai Hing Club (Lindsell says Chui Han). It was at West Point. I met him there. Thereafter I acted as his bodyguard. I met him every day at the J.C. usually about midday.\n\nI would then go with him to Repulse Bay. I think that it was the 6th March. That was the only time. There were about 7 or 8 in the party. At the Hotel he gave me $2 and told me to sit at a separate table because he did not want us to be seen together by Fung and Lai Hing Fai. He gave me $2 on the way to Repulse Bay.\n\nI did not then know who he meant by \"Fang\". I knew George Fung. I had never heard of Lai Ming Fai. At Repulse Bay I saw George Fung with a lady. It was Lai Ming Fai's. I did not then know what the relationship between the accused and Lai Ming Fai was. I learnt that a few days later.\n\nIt was one night at West Point. I think I asked the accused about Lai Ming Fai and Fung. He said that he had lived with Lai Ming Fai for six years but had had no physical connection with her. He said, \"One night I had a quarrel with her, and through a rage of anger I slanged her, and she left me. I would not feel it so bad if she went and lived by herself but she went and lived with a man that I dislike.\" He told me that the man was George Fung. I said, \"I wonder if she is still a virgin,\" and the accused said that he had his doubts. I understood that he wanted to marry her and prove to his parents that she was a virgin. That is what he said. He said that they were opposed to the marriage. That was about the 12th or 13th March.\n\nAt that time I was staying at Nathan Hotel, 3rd floor (English booking). I was there 3 or 4 nights. I did not then know that Fung and Lai King Fai were staying on that floor. I never saw either there. I usually got back to the hotel\n\n(87)",

        "content_text": "## In conclusion the General apologised for not being able to visit personally more Chinese merchants to get their views. He took the opportunity of saying good-bye to the merchants, hoping that one day they could visit him in Canton, where they could have more time to exchange views. He thanked the Chamber and all its members for the excellent entertainment.\n\n## Aeroplane Donors Thanked\n\nIn a speech the Mayor, Mr. Tseng Yang-fu, said that for many years he had been away from Canton serving the Central Government in Nanking. For this reason he had little chance of visiting Hongkong, and to meet such a distinguished gathering of the Chinese business leaders was a great pleasure to him.\n\n\"As explained by General Huang just now,\" said the Mayor, “to pay an official call on His Excellency the Governor, Sir Andrew Caldecott, is the first reason of the visit of the Canton officials, while secondly the officials also want to meet the overseas Chinese here.\n\n\"On behalf of the National Government I wish to thank all Chinese in Hongkong for their generous donation and unselfishness in contributing half a million dollars for the aeroplane fund in connection with Marshal Chiang Kai-shek's birthday. Such a good spirit is comparable to that of even the most patriotic peoples of the European and American countries to-day.\n\n\"Although Hongkong and Canton are on a different footing, actually the closest of relations exist between the two cities. If we can bring prosperity to both, the people in the two places will be directly benefited. For this reason there is every necessity for commercial and economic co-operation between Canton and Hongkong.\n\n\"As most of the Chinese residents in Hongkong are Cantonese, Canton serves as a backbone to them. Consequently a bad Government in Canton will not only disappoint the Cantonese in Hongkong but will have other detrimental effects on this Colony as a whole. The present Government in Canton is determined to carry out its readjustment programme to the fullest extent, so that prosperity will be brought not only to Canton but to both cities. If any future opportunity should arise, the Canton Municipal Government will be most willing to receive any constructive advice which may be given by the Hongkong Chinese.\"\n\n## Other Chinese Receptions\n\nAt the Hotel Cecil at nine o'clock yesterday morning representatives of 280 local Chinese organisations, including trade and labour associations and schools, gave a reception in honour of the visiting Canton officials. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Tang Chi-ching, who delivered the speech of welcome on behalf of the 280 organisations of Hongkong and Kowloon. The Chairman stressed the point that in cementing better relations between Hongkong and Canton they would increase the prosperity of the two leading cities of South China.\n\nAnother speech was made by Mr. Li Sing-kui (Chairman of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce).\n\nThe happy function came to a conclusion after General Huang Mu-sung had replied thanking the hosts for their excellent entertainment.\n\n## A Cordial Welcome\n\nLater in the morning, at 11 o'clock, another Chinese reception, given by a number of local commercial, educational, medical, religious and sports associations, was held in the Kam Ling Restaurant, at West Point. The reception was presided over by Mr. Ip Hau-chuen.\n\nAt this reception General Huang Mu-sung said that the Chinese Government was determined to push on with the new life movement in Kwangtung, as shown by the rigid suppression of gambling, opium smoking and the miscellaneous and unpopular taxes. This would relieve the financial burden of the people and would permit them to proceed with the rehabilitation work. In short, it was the hope of the Canton Government to push ahead the reorganisation of Kwangtung, making the province a model province of China. He said that there was great hope for a speedy recovery if the overseas Chinese continued to give support to the Government whenever they could.\n\nThe Mayor of Canton, Mr. Tseng Yang-fu, said that he was greatly impressed by the enthusiasm shown in the many entertainments which had been given in their honour.\n\n## TRADE DELEGATION\n\n### Big Party of Businessmen Arrive from Canton\n\nBusiness men of Hongkong and Canton were enabled to fraternise at length when, in connection with the goodwill visit of His Excellency the Provincial Chairman of the Kwangtung Provincial Government, and the Mayor of Canton, a party of Chinese business and financial representatives arrived from Canton yesterday morning.\n\nThe visitors were headed by Mr. Ho Tsap-ping, (Chairman, Kwangtung Provincial Chamber of Commerce), and included: Mr. Chow Dien-pong, (Chairman, Canton Chamber of Commerce), Mr. Chen Yu-chien, (Chairman, Canton Bankers Association), Mr. Li Lu-chao, (Director, Canton-Kowloon Railway), Dr. Chien Shu-fan (Lawyer), Mr. Kiang Ying-chi, (Manager, Canton Municipal Bank), Mr. Loo Im-min, (Manager, China State Bank, Canton), Mr. Chan Lim-chung, (Chinese Manager, Hongkong & Shanghai Bank, Canton), Mr. Tsai Chang, Manager, (Sun Company), Mr. Chung Ping-fung, (Manager, General Bank), Mr. W.

Provincial Kwokmantang Headquarters), Mr. Wilfred Ling, (Municipal Government Planning Committee).\n\nThe party was received in the Jacobean Room of the Hongkong Hotel by members of the Hongkong General Chamber of Commerce, and light refreshments were served while introductions were exchanged.\n\n| Name | Affiliation |\n| --- | --- |\n| The Hon.

        "content_text": "# THE HONG KONG WEEKLY PRESS\n## A CASE TO ANSWER\n### Magistrate's Ruling\n#### EXTRADITION PROCEEDING\n\nThat the four alleged fugitives wanted by the Nanking Government in connection with the attempted assassination of Mr. Wang Ching Wei and Marshal Chiang Kai Shek had a case to answer in the extradition proceedings against them was the decision of the Central Magistrate, Mr. W. Schofield in answer to Mr. Peter H. Sin's plea at a previous hearing that his clients had no case to answer.\n\nMr. D. L. Strellet, of Messrs. G. K. Hall Brutton and Co., appeared for the prosecution.\n\nThe four fugitives who appeared before Mr. Schofield on Wednesday were Yu Lap-fai, Chan Chi-ping, Wu Tai-hoi and Cheung Chi-hon.\n\nOutlining his defence, Mr. Sin said that on the part of the first fugitive he will say that he never met Wong Ah-chui in Hong Kong, nor did he conspire with him or others, not in custody, to murder Marshal Chiang Kai-shek and Mr. Wang Ching-wei. If this mysterious person named Wong Ah-chui did conspire to murder these men, then he (first fugitive) was in no way to blame. He only met Wong Ah-san a few times. He was detained for 15 months on one occasion by Marshal Chiang Kai-shek owing to his subordinates causing a minor revolution and he (the first fugitive) being in command was blamed for the upheaval.\n\nHe will admit that he stayed at No. 10, Wing Hing Street where he shared a flat with a man named Chang. He then moved and stayed at No. 69, Shing Wo Road where Mr. Chang Yick-kin, the principal tenant, shared a flat with him. He had never met Wong Ah-chui nor had he any dealings with him.\n\nHe will submit to the Court that Wong Ah-chui was a person who held different political views from those of the Central Government, and thus because his extradition was sought, why should his (first fugitive's) also be sought? He will say that the evidence of Wong Ah-san was absolutely false. How Wong Ah-san came here, the first fugitive did not know, but there was a great deal behind these proceedings.\n\nThe second fugitive will say that he was a guest of the first fugitive and that he was a former member of the Executive Committee of the Seamen's Guild of Wo Hoo, Anhui Province. He came to Hong Kong and became the first fugitive's guest. He will also say that he never knew Wong Ah Chui nor had he conspired with him to murder the said statesmen as alleged.\n\nThe third fugitive will tell the court that he was formerly connected with General Mok Hung, then in command of the 88th Division, which division was connected with the Central Government. He was unemployed and came to Hong Kong to look for work. He was at one time a cook at Cheng Yick Kin's house at No. 69 Shing Wo Road and while he was thus employed, he was arrested. He had been asked by Mr. Cheng to carry certain documents to No. 92 Robinson Road and was asked to wait for him. He will also deny any suggestions of using a bomb in the Nanking outrage. In short, he had nothing to do with any conspiracy with Wong Ah-chui whom he had never met.\n\nThe fourth fugitive will deny point blank being related to Wong Ah-chui, or that his sister was married to him. At the time of his arrest, he was staying at No. 199 Wanchai Road. He had never met Wong Ah-chui or any of the other fugitives before he came to this court.\n\nAll the fugitives will say that the story as unfolded by Wong Ah-san was a fabricated one and will deny all the allegations in total.\n\nMr. Schofield said: Having consulted the cases quoted, I am satisfied that I am in no sense bound to dismiss this case nor am I in the position of a jury which has to be warned but which nevertheless can convict. That being so, there is evidence which raises a probable presumption of the fugitives' guilt and this is in fact my opinion. There is a case to answer.\n\nAfter the evidence of Cheung Kin-pui, translator of certain documents found on the third fugitive when arrested, the case was adjourned till today.\n\n## Page 864\nMay 22 \n24",

At about 2.30 p.m. Chan not having 'phoned or returned, Mr. Costa with the aid of the Technician, broke open Chan's drawer in which he found the paying-in slips and cheques, but no cash. Chan's second drawer containing his personal belongings was open and empty. While the drawer was being opened Mr. Reed 'phoned down to enquire about the bank receipt. Mr. Costa then informed him that Chan had not returned whereupon Mr. Reed came down to make enquiries.\n\n5. During the early part of yesterday afternoon I was at Kai Tak Aeradio where at 2.55 p.m. a telephone message was received from the Radio Office informing me of Chan's non-appearance. I got into touch with Mr. Mills who already had the matter in hand and returned to the office to find Police enquiries in progress.\n\n6. For many years the procedure in force has been for the shroff on his return from the bank to personally take the bank receipt to the Accountant who, if it is not returned to him within a reasonable time, makes any enquiries he considers necessary. The shroff is usually away from the office for half an hour or forty minutes if the bank is unusually busy. The question of the shroff personally returning the bank receipt to the Accountant's office was raised by Chan only a week or ten days ago when he grumbled at having to do this and asked if a messenger could be instructed to return it. He was then told it was his duty to personally return the receipt.\n\n7. With reference to para 2 of your minute it has not been the practice, nor have any instructions been issued on this point, for any member of the Counter staff to see the bank receipt, it being assumed that if the shroff making the payments into the Bank returns to duty in time for the tiffin relief and in the absence of any enquiries from the Accountant",

In connection with finances, he said that he had decided to appoint a small Committee to investigate the financial position of the University, to enquire whether any changes are advisable in staffing, personnel, or salary scales, and to tender any other advice or suggestion for the future of the University.\n\n### Staff Personalities\n\nOn December 21, 1936, the enrolment was 412—139 in the Faculty of Medicine; 133 in the Faculty of Engineering, and 140 in the Faculty of Arts. Three hundred and forty-eight of these students were Chinese. In 1921 there was one woman undergraduate; to-day there are 76. I have once again to pay to the students my grateful tribute for their loyalty, discipline, and for the goodfellowship which prevails not only amongst themselves but between them and their teachers. The cynical might learn much from a visit to the night school which is conducted by the students.\n\nIn the Boxer Indemnity Scholarship Examination held early last year, two of our graduates appeared, and each won a scholarship. Miss Lai Po Kan came first in a competitive examination in Chinese and English Philology, and she is now reading in Oxford for the honours school English language and literature. Forty-five candidates sat for the scholarship examination. The other winner was Dr. Woo Kai-fun; his subject being pathology. He is now working in London. The Boxer Scholarship Examination was first held in 1934. Our record is four competitors and four winners.\n\n### Students Abroad\n\nDr. H. C. Ku, who won a Boxer Scholarship in 1934, has been elected a Fellow of the Edinburgh Royal College of Surgeons. Dr. Lee Hah-liong and Dr. Lim Gim-kheang (medical graduates of ours) have gained respectively the London Diploma in Child Health and the London Diploma of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. Miss Irene Ho has secured the London University Doctorate in Philosophy. Mr. Donald Anderson now holds the London University degree of Bachelor of Laws. Mr. E. B. Ahmed and Mr. Eric Wong Tape have qualified to be Associate members of the Institute of Civil Engineers, the former being top of the list of those who were successful at the examination qualifying for membership. Mr. Gan Kee-poon has been awarded the Diploma of the Imperial College, London. Mr. W. J. C. Fletcher has won the Parsons Memorial Prize—a prize awarded to the best apprentice by Messrs. C. A. Parsons & Co. Ltd., Newcastle-on-Tyne, in whose works Mr. Fletcher is working as an apprentice.\n\nTo the Chair of Anatomy, which was rendered vacant by the retirement of Professor J. L. Shellshear, Dr. Louis R. Shore has been elected. To the junior lectureship in English—held until last September by Mr. A. B. Reynolds—the Council has appointed Mr. Keith William Salter. Professor Shore comes from the Anatomy School of Cambridge; Mr. Salter during his career from the University of Bristol.\n\nOn New Year's day, Sir Grafton Elliot Smith died in London. As Head of the Department of Anatomy of University College, London, Sir Grafton helped this University in many ways. I take this opportunity of recording the University's grateful tribute to the memory of a great scientist to whose kindly interest and encouragement many an anatomist owes his career.\n\nPaying a tribute to Sir William Hornell, Sir Andrew Caldecott said he declined to conclude his speech with the word \"Goodbye,\" as had been the tribute to a great Vice-Chancellor, but would merely say, \"Thank you.\"\n\nSir William Hornell in his address drew attention to the successes which had been achieved by sons and daughters of the Alma Mater during the past year, and the brilliant work done by Professor Ride, whose work on human physiology and pathology had won for him the right to supplicate for the University of Oxford's degree of Doctor of Medicine.\n\nSir William also mourned the losses suffered by the University during the year, by the death of a number of its supporters and brilliant graduates, and drew attention to the distressing lack of playing fields for the undergraduates and the lack of a real connecting link between this university and English universities.\n\nTea was served in the University grounds from 3:45 p.m., and at 5 p.m. the Procession, including members of the Court, Council, Senate, and Faculties of the University, entered the Great Hall, and the members took their places on the dais.\n\nMr. Shore, and Mr. Salter, are going to be happy here—they are the sort of people who know how to be happy. Each one of them is, moreover, going to be a success not only in the University but also in the Colony. I do not often prophesy; here I dare assert.\n\nMr. Reynolds (who also came from the University of Bristol) did excellent work here. He deserves to do well and I am sure that he will.\n\nOur Chinese Staff was further strengthened last year by the appointment to it as Lecturer of Mr. Ma Kiam, M.A., of Columbia University. Mr. Ma Kiam has taught in the Peiping Union Medical College and he came to us from the Yenching University where he was Professor of Chinese. Mr. Ma Kiam's reputation as a scholar and teacher stood high in Peiping.\n\nThe Procession was led by H.E. Sir Andrew Caldecott, the Chancellor; followed by the Mace Bearer, Mr. I. Day, the Vice-Chancellor, Sir William Hornell, and the following: Treasurer and Dean, Faculty of Medicine; Dean, Faculty of Engineering, Dean, Faculty of Arts; H.E. Major-General A. W. Bartholomew, the Registrar; H.H. Sir Atholl MacGregor, Hon. Mr. N. L. Smith; The Rt. Rev. Bishop R. O. Hall, The Rt. Rev. Bishop Valtorta; Hon. Mr. C. G. Alabaster, Hon. Mr. R. A. C. North; Hon. Mr. Edwin Taylor, Hon. R. M. Henderson; Hon. Sir Henry Pollock, Hon. Sir Shouson Chow; Hon. Dr. A. R. Wellington, Hon. Mr. S. H. Dodwell; Hon. Mr. J. P. Braga, Hon. Mr. Ts'o Seen-wan; Hon. Com. G. F. Hole, R.N., (Retd.), Hon. Mr. Chau Tsun-nin; Hon. Dr. R. H. Kotewall, Hon. Mr. T. H. King; Hon. Mr. Lo Man-kam, Hon. Mr. A. W. Hughes; Mr. Eu Tong-sen, Mr. Mok Kon-sang; Mr. Ho Kom Tong, Professor C. A. M. Smith; Professor K. H. Digby, Professor G. T. Byrne; Professor F. A. Redmond, Professor L. Forster; Professor W. L. Gerrard; Professor W. C. W. Nixon, Professor L. R. Shore; Professor Hsu Ti Shan, Lt. Col. H. B. L. Dowbiggin; Mr. K. E. Greig, Mr. J. R. Masson; Mr. F. J. de Rome, Mr. G. R. Sayer; Mr. M. P. Talati, Mr. P. S. Cassidy; Mr. T. E. Pearce, Mr. J. H. Seth; Ir. G. P. de Martin, Mr. E. Cock; Mr. Sum Pak-ming, Mr. Kan Tong-po; Mr. B. Wong Tape, Mr. Tang Shiu-kin; Dr. G. D. R. Black, Mr. A. Brearly; Mr. Li Jow-son, Mr. Li Tse-fong; Dr. G. A. C. Herklots, Dr. Li Shu-fan; Mr. D. W. Morley, Mr. B. G. Birch; Mr. D. F. Davies, Mr. A. H. Fenwick; Mrs. M. Ring, Mr. R. A. Hill; Mr. K. W. Salter, Dr. D. J. Valentine; Mr. Chan Kwan-po, Mr. A. H. Paterson; Mr. S. V. Boxer, Mr. Ma Kiam; Dr. J. S. Guzdar, Miss Baxter; Father B. C. Kelly, S.J., Rev. G. K. Carpenter.\n\nWhile the Procession entered the Great Hall, the Band of the 2nd Battalion, The East Lancashire Regiment, played the Processional March.\n\nWhen all the members had taken their places on the dais, the Chancellor declared the Congregation open, and the Vice-Chancellor delivered his address. Sir William said:\n\nNineteen hundred and thirty-six has been a year of tragedy and mourning, and the University has had its share of unhappiness. We lost Mr. Wong Kwong-tin and Mr. Kwok Siu-lau. Both were staunch supporters of the University, and to the latter we owe the Biological Department.\n\nOn April 1, Maurice Alfred Cooper died. As Lecturer in Commerce and indeed generally as a member of the University Staff and for a time the Warden of a University Hostel, Cooper did devoted work. His untimely death was a severe shock to us all. Those who came into contact with Cooper will not forget him.\n\n### Dr. Ride's Success\n\nMention has already been made of the visit which the University's Professor of Physiology, Dr. Ride, made in 1931 and 1932 to Borneo in connection with his genetic researches. In 1933 the University granted Professor Ride study leave, and the Rockefeller Foundation asked him to tour America and to report on the present study of genetics and heredity with special reference to their application to problems of human physiology and pathology.\n\nThe thesis which Professor Ride wrote has been accepted by the University of Oxford and, in the language of that ancient institution, he may now supplicate for the University's degree of Doctor of Medicine.\n\nIn 1927 there were 292 students on the University's roll. On October...\n\n...some millions of dollars to bequeath (this, I regret to say, is pure hypothesis and not a prospect) I should certainly want to know two things; whether the institution which I selected for endowment was...\n\n(Continued on Page 9.)",

        "content_text": "# HONGKONG UNIVERSITY \n\n(Continued from Page 8.)\n\nThe endowment was being run in a sound, economical, and businesslike manner, and whether the most was being made of its public utility. Now it is because I have had doubts expressed to me by responsible persons on both these points as regards this University, because also its present finances afford room for considerable concern, and chiefly because the Colonial Government is now contributing to them annually a sum of no less than three hundred and fifty thousand dollars that I have decided, as Governor and with the full approval of my Executive Council, to appoint a small committee of inquiry.\n\n## Committee of Inquiry\n\nI to investigate the present, and probable future, financial position of the Hongkong University and to advise whether any changes are desirable in its staffing, personnel, salary scales, or organization;\n\nII: to enquire and advise whether any such, or other, changes are desirable in the interest of its utility or prestige;\n\nIII: to tender any other advice or suggestions for the future of the University.\n\nI have heard the suggestion made that we ought to get an expert out from home for this investigation, but I feel certain myself that our local conditions and circumstances are so peculiar to ourselves that the first thing at any rate, to do is to bring good, clear local brains to bear on the problem and to have their summing up of the position and their advice regarding it before we consider the expensive proposition of obtaining outside opinion which, however expert on the subject of University organization, would not be expert in regard to the special circumstances and requirements of the Far East.\n\nThe gentlemen who will be invited to serve on the Committee will be the Honourable Mr. N. L. Smith, Colonial Secretary, the Honourable Sir Shouson Chow, Mr. J. R. Masson, and Mr. A. Morse, Honorary Treasurer of the University. The membership is small, because I do not believe in unwieldy committees, but the committee will take the evidence of all who respond to its invitation or volunteer to appear before it.\n\n## Scholarships\n\nThe scholarships awarded were:\n| Scholarship | Recipient |\n| --- | --- |\n| The Ng Li-hing Medical Scholarship | divided between S. Bard and V. N. Vargassoff |\n| The Ho Fook and Chan Kai-ming First Medical Scholarship | V. N. Vargassoff |\n| The Ho Fook and Chan Kai-ming Second Medical Scholarship | For May 1936, Wu Hung-tak; For December, Cheng See-yan |\n| The Anderson Scholarship for 1936 | Cheng See-yan |\n| The Chan Kai-ming Engineering Scholarship | Chan Bing-hung |\n| The Chan Kai-ming Arts Scholarship | Li Shi-yi |\n\n## Congregation Details\n\nThe Great Hall was filled to capacity with invited guests and friends and relatives of those who were receiving degrees. Among those present not on the dais were Lady Caldecott, Captain W. J. R. Cragg, A.D.C. to His Excellency, Mr. Secretary to His Excellency; H. E. H. J. Cruttwell, Private Secretary to His Excellency; Vice Admiral Sir Charles Little, and Lady Little, H. E. Maj.-Gen. A. W. Bartholomew and Mrs. Bartholomew; and Rear Admiral C. G. Sedgwick.\n\nWhile tea was being served in the grounds, the Band of the 2nd Battalion, The East Lancashire Battalion, played selections. The programme included: \"March of the Peers\" from \"Iolanthe\", Sullivan; \"The Merry Widow\", Lehar; Selection from the Musical Play; Valse, \"Amorettan Tanze\" Gung'l; Entr'cte, \"Humcresque\", Dvorak; Selection, \"Merrie England\", German.\n\n## SIR WILLIAM HORNELL\n\nSir William Hornell, who has been Vice-Chancellor of the University since 1924, was formerly in the Indian Educational Service. A son of the late Mr. Robert Hornell, Barrister-at-law of the Inner Temple, he was born in 1878 and educated at Radley School and Trinity College, Oxford, where he graduated Master of Arts. In 1901, he entered the Indian Educational Service, and the following year was appointed Professor of English at the Presidency College, Calcutta. Transferred to Bengal, he rose there to be Director of Public Instruction. For some years, he was attached to the Board of Education, Whitehall. In 1918, he was honoured with the C.I.E., and in 1933, he was created a Knight Bachelor. In 1931, he was presented with an honorary degree of Doctor of Law by the Hongkong University.\n\nFor twelve years, he has been building on its foundations and without any edifice of bricks and mortar but the lives and careers of hundreds of young men and women. He has made himself extremely popular in the Colony, and has associated himself with many local organisations. He has confessed to a sense of frustration: He was largely instrumental in securing for the University a share in the Boxer Indemnity Fund.\n\nNobody realises defects in foundation, in lay-out, or in materials more than the master-builder, and the appointment of my small committee will provide the opportunity for the master-builder to come forward and advise as an architectural consultant for the University's future.\n\nSir William has confessed also to a sense of isolation. So far as contact with the British Universities is at present lacking or ineffective, I am bold to prophesy that, when he is back home, Sir William will personally achieve a proper and effectual liaison. He will be, I am confident, this University's apostle to England. But as regards the loss which his departure will spell for us in Hongkong, I can find no words of comfort at all. It is, alas, proverbial that great men leave great gaps. Sir William Hornell has been not only a great Vice-Chancellor but a very human one, so that the gap which he leaves will be a gap not only in the list of Hongkong's distinguished residents but in that innermost circle of public friends which the Colony has taken warmly and gratefully to its heart.\n\nHe ended his address to us this afternoon with the sad word \"Goodbye\"; I refuse now to anticipate our parting with him by returning that salutation but, at this, his last Congregation, and on behalf of all present, I will conclude my remarks by addressing to him two words, two simple little words which can nevertheless be charged with all our infinity of obligation, admiration, and affection towards him--Thank you, Sir William.\n\n## The Graduates\n\nThe following received the degree of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery:\n- Cheng See-yan\n- Miss C.

        "content_text": "# THE HONG KONG WEEKLY PRESS & CHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT\n## October 29, 1937\n\n### COOLIES REFUSE TO WORK LOCAL SHIP\n\nBelieved Cargo Was For Japan\n\nUnder the impression that the cargo they were loading was intended to be shipped to Japan, over 60 coolies refused to work the ss. Hai Tan. The cargo comprised tanks of kerosene and petrol which were to be shipped to Swatow, Foochow, and Amoy.\n\nIt was learned that the Texas Oil Co. installation had engaged 120 coolies to load onto the Hai Tan. A commotion was caused among the 60 coolies who turned up when it was alleged that someone had informed them that the cargoes were meant for Japan. On hearing the rumor, the coolies immediately stopped work.\n\nAnother incident of a similar nature took place on Oct. 22 at Connaught Road West on a junk where a number of coolies were unloading wolfram ore to be stored in a godown. It was alleged that the ore was to be sent to Japan.\n\n### GOVERNOR'S OFFICIAL VISIT TO MACAO\n\nHis Excellency the officer Administering the Government, Mr. N. L. Smith, C.M.G., accompanied by his A.D.C., Capt. G. P. Rickcord, and private secretary, Mr. H. J. Cruttwell, paid an official visit to Macao on October 22.\n\nThey left shortly before 8 a.m. yesterday by the H.M.S. Falmouth, the Admiral's Yacht, and were seen off by the Portuguese Consul-General, Signor Alvaro Brilhante Laborinho, at Queen's Pier.\n\nIn Macao, they had luncheon at Government House with the Governor of Macao. After taking a motor drive around the Portuguese Colony, they left for Hong Kong by the Falmouth, arriving here at 7 p.m. in the evening.\n\nThe visit had no political significance and was suggested several months ago and approved by the Secretary of State for the Colonies. Its postponement had been due to the situation in China but, as no such visit had been paid since 1933, the Secretary of State was anxious that this courtesy should, if possible, not await the arrival of Sir Geoffry Northcote, the Governor-Designate of Hong Kong.\n\n### Trade Barriers\n\nTrade barriers were touched upon at the half-yearly meeting of the Penang Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Jules Martin, who invariably takes an active share in the discussions at the meetings of the Chamber, followed his usual course on this occasion and made a sound contribution to the proceedings, comments the \"Malaya Tribune.\" With his plea for freer trade and the abolition of all tariff barriers, he is assured of ample sympathy, for there can be no doubt whatever that most of the ills to which the world is heir today can be laid at the door of economic self-sufficiency. It has acted as a garrote on world trade and gained in strength so much that Great Britain, the apostle of free trade, was herself forced to resort to tariffs for her own protection. That did not make matters in the wider aspect any better. But it cannot be concluded that Great Britain, in taking the action she did, was actuated by any motive other than self-preservation. As regards Mr. Martin's remarks, he was thinking of world trade and the stranglehold which economic nationalism has succeeded in locking upon it. There are already signs that the economic nationalists have discovered the vital flaw in their theory, and there is a growing disposition to look upon free trade with a less prejudiced eye. But why consider world conditions when there are equally absurd conditions prevailing nearer home? There are the customs barriers in the Federated Malay States. Why not establish free trade on the mainland? It would be an excellent example to set the rest of the world.\n\n### A White Elephant\n\nOne of Malaya's white elephants, Prai, had its periodical outing last week at the half-yearly meeting of the Penang Chamber of Commerce. The pachyderm was trotted out for inspection by the chairman, Mr. T. C. Martine, and, after a not too favorable eye had been cast over its points, it was trotted back again. It will be recalled that the General Manager of the Federated Malay States Railways, in his annual report for 1936, contradicted the assertion that the port of Prai was a white elephant. In one respect, he was right. The port will never be entirely useless but it will never be the port that its creators dreamed it would be. It will never be a deep-water port for ocean-going steamers. Mr. Martine subscribed to that view.\n\nHe did not propose to re-open a rather weather-beaten controversy as to the advantages of port development on the mainland, but he did consider that the bulk of cargo at Prai or Penang must always be handled by lighters, and any new improvement scheme should be designed with that idea to the fore. So there we have it. Prai is an excellent lighterage port and nothing more. In effect, it is still a white elephant but not so white as some of its traducers try to make out. When the amount of money that has been sunk in that estuary in an endeavor to justify the opinions of those who believed in Prai as a deep-water port is recalled, it is something to be thankful for that the future of the port is assured, not on the grandiose lines originally visualized for it, but on a real utility basis. The only thing that rankles is that all this was seen and appreciated by not a few before the Prai wharves had got no further than plans on paper. As an offset to the irksome reminder of the many millions spent on its construction, there is always the consolation that Prai will eventually pay for its keep.\n\n### Welcome, Malaya\n\nThe decision of the Malayan Governments to book 5,000 square feet in the Colonial Pavilion of the Empire Exhibition, to be held in Glasgow next year, has afforded much satisfaction in Scottish business circles, and the hope is freely expressed that the display of Malayan exhibits will result in mutual trade benefits.\n\nWelcoming Malaya to the Exhibition, the Glasgow \"News\" in a short editorial says:-\n\n\"Your decision to book 5,000 square feet in the Colonial Pavilion is heartening to us in Glasgow, and will prove a wise departure for yourselves.\n\n### CHINA REVIEW\n\n#### Pitiable Sights\n\n\"Unparalleled scenes of misery and destitution are being witnessed in the streets of Shanghai as a result of the hostilities, for hundreds of refugees are roaming the streets in the International Settlement and French Concession, sleeping in the open, begging for food, battered by the elements.\"\n\nThis is the description which an eyewitness gives of the immense suffering of the civilian population in Shanghai from a war which is due to no fault of theirs.\n\nBeing driven from their homes by the unwelcome visitation of bullets and shells, these refugees have now to live in concentration camps. Although eighty such camps have been established in the foreign areas, there is accommodation for a mere handful of the total figure. Meanwhile, the food problem grows more acute daily.\n\nAt present, unfortunate victims of war are only given rations, which do no more than keep them from abject starvation, and the police and volunteers are kept busy coping with food riots.\n\nFurther, the unsanitary conditions in the city are causing the health authorities much anxiety. Cases of cholera have been reported, and if the disease develops into an epidemic, against which all possible precautions are now being taken, the situation will be rendered most difficult.\n\n#### Women Soldiers\n\nThe womenfolk in China are taking their full share of responsibility in the present Sino-Japanese conflict. Discarding lipsticks and eyebrow pencils, they have now taken active parts in the front lines, and have been engaged in militia duties in the rear. It is even said that some of them have actually seen service in some of the grimmest and bloodiest battles in Shanghai.\n\nThroughout the country, girls are petitioning the Government for enrolment into the women's fighting forces, but so far, only those with previous military training have been drafted. But those who have been rejected are trying to make themselves useful in other ways, such as bringing comforts and entertainment to the troops and doing Red Cross work in base hospitals behind the fighting lines.\n\nAt the same time, the Government is exercising the greatest of caution because numerous traitors and spies are seeking to make army contacts. Consequently, many volunteers are rejected unless they possess incontrovertible proofs of their patriotic motives.\n\nThe former Red Army, subsequently renamed the 8th Route Army, possesses a contingent of veteran women troops. They are mostly wives of regulars, and are reliably said to be remaining with the 8th Route Army. It will be recalled that two years ago, they captured an entire regiment of Szechuen provincial troops!\n\n### MALAYAN REVIEW (Continued)\n\n\"Over here, we know too little of what you mean to the Empire with your vast production of rubber and tin, and your strategic importance in times of peace as in times of international strife.\n\n\"We are vague in our knowledge of the Federated and Unfederated States and the Straits Settlements, and their relation to Britain, so that anything you can do to educate us will be of mutual benefit.\n\n\"The Sino-Japanese war reminds us forcibly of the part that Singapore plays in protecting the arteries of Empire, and safeguarding the life-blood of our peoples.\n\n\"You will enlighten us more fully and by happier methods.\"\n\n### CHUNG SHAN SURGICAL UNIT\n\n#### Personnel In North China\n\nThe following corrected list of the personnel composing the Chung Shan Surgical Unit was received from Nanking recently, reading as follows:-\n\nThe Chung Shan Medical Unit, Nanking:- Patron and President: Dr. Sun Fo, President of the Legislative Yuan;\n\nBoard of Directors:- Dr. Wang Ching Wei (President of the Kuomintang); Dr. Wang Chung Hui (Minister of Foreign Affairs); Dr. J.

Pearce and seconded by Mr. H. Owen-Hughes, Mr. H. R. B. Hancock was unanimously re-elected President of the Hong Kong Cricket Club at the Annual General Meeting held in the Clubhouse last evening.\n\nThe Committee, comprising, in addition to the President, Messrs. P. M. Hodgson, A. W. Hayward, A. C. I. Bowker, T. E. Pearce, J. R. Collis, V. R. Gordon, H. Owen-Hughes, E. J. R. Mitchell, and G. W. Sewell, were also re-elected en bloc.\n\nMessrs. Linstead and Davis are again to be the Club's auditors at an annual fee of $100.\n\nIn his speech, the Chairman (Mr. H. R. B. Hancock) said:-\n\nGentlemen:- From the accounts before you, you will see that our Profit and Loss account, after allowing for the necessary depreciation, shows a loss of $4,206.30, though actually the loss for the year was $791.44, as there was a small profit last year of $423.01. There was a loss in our working account of $148.56, against a profit last year of $1,229.07, accounted for by a reduction in income of $1,113.71, and an increase in expenditure of $304.43. Subscriptions were down by $561.71. On the debit side, there was a decrease under the heading of Squash Court Expenses of $841.05, and an increase in re-turfing of $705.03. There is not much change in the other items. I regret to see subscriptions down so much. Lately, however, the number of new members has been encouraging.\n\nTurning to the Profit and Loss account, you will notice that our depreciation written off amounts to $3,414.86, as against $3,574.32 last year. Turning to the Balance Sheet, overdue accounts amount to $1,903.28. We have since collected $1,503.25, and the balance is good, whilst against August chits of $2,893.95, since the account was made up, $2,483.67 has been collected, and the remainder is in course of collection.\n\n### CLUB'S FINANCES \n\nThe question of the Club's Finances has for some time past been receiving the earnest attention of your Committee, and your Committee, whilst the position on the whole shows no cause for alarm, has been seeking ways and means whereby we can improve matters and bring the Club back to a paying basis again, which we must do. You may remember I have alluded to this matter for the past two years. The price of drinks, which were far too low, have been put up, and even now are cheaper than at most Clubs, and after considerable thought, your Committee has decided that the Subscription must be raised.\n\nThe proposal, therefore, is to raise this $1.00 per month for playing members and subscribers and to leave the non-playing members as at present, $100.00 per annum. This means that from January 1st next, the subscription for all playing members, including subscribers, will be $3.00 per month, or $36.00 per annum, instead of at present $2.00 per month, with a maximum of $24.00 per annum, and the subscription will be collected monthly, instead of half-yearly as at present, which I am sure members will prefer.\n\n### SPORTS ACTIVITIES \n\nWe had a moderately successful Cricket season, and I am hoping that this year, with the addition of new recruits, we shall have a very successful year. We shall run two teams as usual, and I would appeal to the younger members of the Club to give the Captains of the two sides their keen support.\n\nThe Entries for the Annual Lawn Tennis Tournament were well in advance of the previous year, but I am sorry to say the gate receipts showed a sad falling off, due in some measure to the fact that there were no new outstanding players, and to the absence of our ex-Champion Tsui Wai-pui, also I think in some degree to a too high charge for admission to the stand. The Tennis Sub-Committee have this latter matter in hand, and I think a satisfactory scheme will be formulated before the next tournament takes place. I should like to take this opportunity of congratulating Tsui on representing Hong Kong in the Davis Cup matches in England this year. We have rather a particular interest in him, as his father was for many years a very loyal and valued servant of this Club. We have a new Champion of the Colony, Mr. H. D. Rumjahn, and the Rumjahn cousins once again won the doubles championship of the Colony.\n\n### CRICKET INTERPORT \n\nWe sent a Cricket side to Shanghai last October and lost the match by 217 runs. It was, however, a good game, and much better than the actual result would lead one to believe. Our team thoroughly enjoyed their visit, and our best thanks are due to our friends in the North for the wonderful kindness and hospitality extended to them during their stay in Shanghai.\n\nWe were greatly looking forward to a visit from Shanghai next month, but owing to the unfortunate state of affairs there, it is of course impossible for them to come down. Our sincere sympathy goes out to them in the harrowing experiences they are undergoing, and we can only hope that peace will reign again in the not very distant future.\n\nThere is only one more matter I want to refer to, and that is to thank our Honorary Secretary, Mr. Mackenzie, for all his hard work on the Club's behalf during the past year. I am quite sure all members are deeply sensible of the good work he has done for us, and we are very grateful to him.\n\nMr. Hancock then proposed the adoption of the Report and Accounts. This was seconded by Mr. P. E. Baskett and passed unanimously.\n\nImmediately after the Annual Meeting, an Extraordinary General Meeting was held, at which the proposal for raising the subscription, referred to by the Chairman in his speech, was put to the members present. Proposed by Mr. Hancock and seconded by the Hon. Mr. R. M. Henderson, the motion was carried.\n\nOctober 29, 1937\n\n### H.K. REFEREES ASSOCIATION \n\n#### Half Monthly Meeting \n\nA half-monthly referees' meeting of the Hong Kong Football Association was held at the Gloucester Building last night.\n\nA letter from the Association informing that there would be no reduction in fees was read, after which a general discussion took place.\n\nOctober 29, 1937\n\n### CHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT \n\n## 623 \n\n### ITALY AND JAPAN: Clearing Up A Few Points \n\n(To The Editor, \"The Hong Kong Daily Press\")\n\nDear Sir,- News which has appeared lately in the Press and the prominent display given to them in local papers tend to give the impression that Italy is definitely helping Japan, in spite of the official denials given by the Government of Rome, which are always printed in very small types and hidden away in the midst of a multitude of other news.\n\nAs a Chinese, ready to die for my country and its noble cause, but being also a lover of justice, I would like some space in your paper in order to state a few facts which of themselves are refutation of these tendentious news.\n\n(1) On the last celebration of the Double Tenth, the Generalissimo Chiang Kai Shek awarded medals and decorations to seven Italians in Nanking. \n(2) Dr. H. H. Kung on his return trip from Europe travelled on the Italian liner Victoria. \n(3) I learn from an official source in H.K. that an Italian bomber of the latest type will soon be delivered to Canton by two Italian aviators. \n(4) The story of Italian aviators in Japanese airplanes at Canton has been discounted as ridiculous even by the conscientious Chinese Press. \n(5) Dr. H. H. Kung, in an interview with a representative of the Central News Agency on Oct. 20th, extended his thanks to Italy as well as to other nations for assistance rendered to China. \n(6) It has been officially denied that Italy intends to withdraw its advisers and aeronautical experts. Over 100 Italian officers are at present in Nanchang building airplanes for the Chinese air-force. I need not point out how all Japanese reports of presumed help given to Japan have, without exception, been officially denied by Rome. Even the latest news from Japanese sources, of course, that Italy will support Japan at the Nine-Power Conference is obviously ridiculous when one reflects that Italy has not yet signified her intention of participating at the conference.\n\nProbably Italy might refuse to apply sanctions against Japan, who supported her in the Abyssinian war, but this would still be far from offering military aid to Japan, as the posters of local newspapers loudly proclaimed a few weeks ago. The sympathy of the Italian people and of all the Italians in China is unquestionably for China, and these malicious news tending to alienate the old ties of friendship between the two nations should always be read with a grain of common sense by those Chinese and foreigners who, loving their country, love also justice and truth.\n\nYours, etc.,  \nLEI CHONG PING.  \nHong Kong, October 21, 1937.\n\n### LEPER MISSION HEAD En Route To Manila \n\nDR. C. L. WONG ENTERTAINED \n\nDr. C. L. Wong, medical superintendent of the National Leprosarium at Shanghai, which is operated by the Chinese Mission to Lepers, was a through passenger for Manila by the liner \"Victoria,\" which left for that port on Saturday night.\n\nDr. Wong was entertained by Mr. Li Chor-chi, the chairman of the local auxiliary of the Mission to Lepers, at the St. Francis Hotel last Friday evening. Those present included Mr. William Yinson Lee, former president and now a member of the board of directors of the Mission, Dr. Sargent of the Kwangchi Hospital, Hangchow, Mrs. Wing-chan, treasurer of the local auxiliary, and others.\n\nThe National Leprosarium at Tszang was undamaged up to three weeks ago, according to Dr. Wong, but as some of the fiercest fighting has been going on in that sector, there is little hope of saving this $120,000 institution. Half of the 100 inmates have been transferred to a building administered by the Chung Shan Memorial Hospital in Shanghai, while others have been sent to various leprosaria.\n\nDr. Wong will spend six months in the Philippines, principally at Cullon, Cebu, and Manila, where he will investigate the latest methods in the treatment of leprosy upon a fellowship granted by the American Leprosy Foundation, of which Mr. Percy Burgess, who is now en route to the Colony from the United States, is president.\n\nDr. Wong said that a number of lepers have been cured of the disease by injections of chaulmoogra oil distributed to hospitals by the Chinese Mission to Lepers.",

        "content_text": "# [1st witness Lam Chu.]\n\n46. How far away were you from the lighthouse? I could not see the lighthouse where I was, but at night I could see the light from the lighthouse.\n\n47. What date did you arrive off Chelong lighthouse? 21st September.\n\n48. Was your brother Lam Shu-po with you? Yes.\n\n49. Were there any other junks besides yours and your brother's on the fishing ground off Chelong lighthouse? Yes.\n\n50. How many? 10.\n\n51. You have told us that you and your brother fished together as a pair: did the other 10 junks also fish in pairs? Yes, they were all together in pairs.\n\n52. I want you to tell me if you can describe it to me, the sort of formation that these six pairs were fishing in? I must have some models or something so that I can arrange them and give you some idea.\n\n53. Witness demonstrates with paper-weights: \n| Description | Arrangement |\n| --- | --- |\n| Fishing junks were in pairs | arranged as above |\n| Lighthouse at Chelong |  |\n\n54. Fishing junks were in pairs arranged as above.\n\nLighthouse at Chelong.\n\n55. Can you tell the names and masters of these fishing junks, taking them in this order and working right round?\n| Pair # | Names | Masters |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| (1) |  | Lam Fuk-tai and Shek Kai-cheung |\n| (2) |  | Lam Yung-hei and Lam Yung-shing |\n| (3) |  | Lam Chu (myself) and Lam Shu-po |\n| (4) |  | Chan Kau and Yeung Yat-hei |\n| (5) |  | Fung Kam-shing (owns two junks) |\n| (6) |  | Ng Ying-kit and Li Mun |\n\n56. (1) Lam Fuk-tai and Shek Kai-cheung.\n\n57. (2) Lam Yung-hei and Lam Yung-shing.\n\n58. (3) Lam Chu (myself) and Lam Shu-po.\n\n59. (4) Chan Kau and Yeung Yat-hei.\n\n60. (5) Fung Kam-shing (owns two junks).\n\n61. (6) Ng Ying-kit and Li Mun.\n\n62. Mr. Whyatt: You say you arrived there on 21st September? Yes, the position in which I placed these models represents the position of the junks on the 22nd September; we arrived there the previous day.\n\n63. That was on the morning of the 22nd September that the fishing fleet was in this formation? Yes.\n\n64. What was the weather like on the morning of the 22nd? Fine weather.\n\n65. About 8 o'clock in the morning of the 22nd did you see anything unusual whilst aboard your junk? I did not see the flag, but I saw a steamer, silver grey in colour, a whitish-grey colour.\n\n66. What sort of a vessel was this? A gunboat, a submarine.\n\n67. Mr. Whyatt to Interpreter: Tell the witness that the two things are not the same thing. Tell him a submarine is something that goes under the surface of the water and also along the surface of the water, whereas a gunboat can only go along the surface of the water—explain that to him, please.\n\n68. Witness: We could only see a small piece of mast sticking out of the water until she came along.\n\n69. Mr. Whyatt: Where was she when you first saw her? She came from the direction of the lighthouse approaching us from our stern.\n\n70. Chairman: What time was it when you first observed this boat? About 8 a.m.\n\n71. Mr. Whyatt: Will you please come down to the table and illustrate where the submarine was when you first saw it.\n\n72. Witness demonstrates:\n| Entity | Position |\n| --- | --- |\n| X | X |\n| X | Lighthouse |\n| ***Submarine |  |\n| X | X |\n| Junks: X | X |\n| X | X |\n\n73. It came this way and hit the stern of the first pair of junks.\n\n74. I want you to tell us in as much detail as you can remember what that submarine did when she came up against the stern of the first pair of junks? The very first thing she did was to fire on these junks with a big gun.\n\n75. Did you see what happened to that junk after the submarine had fired at her? She was hit several times and she sank. Shek Kai-cheung's junk was hit first, and after she was hit many times she went down.\n\n76. And what about Lam Fuk-tai's junk? She was also hit three or four times before she went down.\n\n77. After that did you see where the submarine went after firing at these two junks? After that the submarine went for us—that is my junk and my brother's junk—and opened fire. The other pair had escaped.\n\n78. Which direction did the second pair escape? Taking a south-west direction.\n\n79. When the submarine came up to you there, how close was it then? Very close—about two or three times the length of this court*.\n\n80. Did you see any men on board her? Yes.\n\n81. What sort of men were they? Japanese.\n\n82. How do you know? Because I have seen Japanese when I was in Hong Kong.\n\n83. What was it about their appearance which made you think they were Japanese? Because I could recognize them by their clothing, the outer garment had a sort of suspender leading from shoulder to trousers.\n\n84. You were telling me about their clothing. The distance you were away—could you see their faces clearly? I could not see their faces clearly, no.\n\n85. Could you see anything about their physical appearance by that I mean the face which indicated to you what race they were? Yes, by their features I could see from the distance they were Japanese.\n\n86. How many of these sailors were there? I saw about ten of them, they were working at the gun.\n\n87. Whereabouts was the gun? Two guns, one on the bow and the other on the stern of the vessel.\n\n88. Chairman: Before you go further, will you be so good as to clear up one little difficulty I have. The last position of the submarine which we have, which is also the first, the submarine had only a little piece of mast sticking out of the water. Can witness give us an indication of what he next noticed—whether he saw the vessel come to the surface? Will you tell us where the men emerged from and what amount of superstructure was above the surface when the first shots were fired?\n\n*Length of Supreme Court is 72 feet.\n\nPage 203",

        "content_text": "# \n[9th witness Yeung Yat-hei.] \n\n711. Were they very badly wounded? \n712. Do you remember their names? \n\nYes, they were all killed. \nOne was named Yeung Yat-ho, the second Cheung Lung-hau, and the third Ah Sam-I do not know his surname. \n\n713. Well now, after you had got on to your sampan or the mainsail did you notice the submarine going anywhere? \nNo, I did not watch it; I did not notice where the submarine had gone. \n\n714. Was your junk carrying any cannon or other arms? \nNo arms at all. \n\n715. Any cannon? \nYes, two small cannon, \n\n716. Whereabouts were they? \nThey were inside the hold. \n\n717. When was the last occasion you ever used these cannon? \nSeveral tens of years ago, when they were last used.

Do you know the name of the master of the junk that towed you away? \nHis name is Cho Sam: I do not know his surname. \n\n726. Where did he tow you to? \nHe towed us to San Mei. \n\n727. And how long did you stay at San Mei? \nFor a long time I stayed in San Mei, up to yesterday. \n\n728. Then you came to Hong Kong yesterday? \nYes, I came to Hong Kong yesterday, \n\n729.

Do you remember going on a fishing expedition in September this year? \nYes. \n\n743. Where did you sail from? \nFrom Shaukiwan; then we went to Pak Sha Wu. \n\n744. Where did you sail to from Pak Sha Wu? \nWe went to Chelong near the lighthouse. \n\n745. What date did you sail from Pak Sha Wu to the lighthouse? \nOn the 21st September we sailed from Pak Sha Wu. \n\n746. Were there any other junks with you? \nYes, there were other fishing junks. We left together and sailed together. \n\n747. Could you remember how many? \nBesides our pair there were 10 other fishing junks. \n\n748. When did you start fishing? \nAbout 4 p.m. We started sailing on the 21st September and early next morning we arranged our nets. \n\n749. How far were you from the Chelong lighthouse when you started fishing next morning? \nWe could not see the lighthouse from where we were fishing. \n\n750. Had you seen the light of the lighthouse during the night previous? \nI could not see the light of the lighthouse. \n\n751. Had you seen any reflection of the light in the sky during the previous night? \nNo. \n\n752. What was the weather like that morning? \nFine weather. \n\n753.

Did you see anything happen to any other junks after Lam Fuk-tai's junk had been shot at? \nNext Shek Kai-cheung's junk was also shot at. \n\n762.

        "content_text": "# 10th Witness: Chan Yat-san\n\n## Examination\n\n763. Did you notice what the submarine did after firing at Shek Kai-cheung's junk? I did not watch what the submarine did after having shot at Shek Kai-cheung's junk. I only heard distantly the report of the guns.\n\n764. What did you do after you saw the submarine fire at Shek Kai-cheung's junk? The next junk shot at was Lam Shu-po's junk.\n\n765. How many shots were fired at Lam Shu-po's junk? Two shots were fired.\n\n766. After firing at Lam Shu-po's junk, did you notice what the submarine did next? It shot at Lam Chu's junk.\n\n767. How many shots did the submarine fire at Lam Chu's junk? One.\n\n768. Was the submarine gradually coming nearer to you whilst it was firing at these junks? This submarine was approaching nearer and nearer as she was firing at these junks.\n\n769. Nearer and nearer to your junks? Yes.\n\n770. Then what were you and your father doing on board in the meantime? We then made preparations: we had all the nets and everything put on board and we sailed.\n\n771. In what direction did you sail? We sailed in a north-easterly direction.\n\n772. Why did you start sailing in a north-easterly direction? We were trying to escape.\n\n773. What happened to the submarine after it had fired at Lam Chu's junk? The next thing, the submarine shot at Fung Hing-wo's junk.\n\n774. Chairman: Fung Hing-wo is a new name?\n\n775. Mr. Whyatt: No, sir. That was paired with Fung Kam-shing. He is corroborating evidence that has already been given.\n\n776. You have told us that the submarine then went and attacked Fung Hing-wo's junk. How many shots were fired at that junk? Fung Hing-wo's pair of junks - 4 shots were fired at the two junks by the submarine.\n\n777. After that did you see what the submarine did? Then this submarine chased Yeung Yat-hei's junk and fired at it.\n\n778. That was the junk that your father was working with as a pair? Yes.\n\n779. What did it do to Yeung Yat-hei's junk? Three shots were fired and that junk sank.\n\n780. And then what happened? At that time we lowered our mainsail.\n\n781. And why did you lower your mainsail? For the purpose of using it as a kind of raft for saving us if anything should happen.\n\n782. And did anything happen to you? Yes, the submarine fired four times at our junk.\n\n783. Where were you when the shots struck your junk? I was in the hold on board.\n\n784. How did you know that four shots were fired at your junk? After three shots had been fired I came up to see and I saw the fourth shot, and then I withdrew again.\n\n785. What happened to your junk after these shots had struck it? The bow of my junk went down, but the stern was afloat.\n\n786. Can you give us some idea of what was the closest distance that this submarine approached your junk? The nearest point was about 140 fathoms.\n\n787. Did you notice how many guns it was carrying? Two.\n\n788. Did you notice if there were any men on board? Yes, more than ten men were working at a gun.\n\n789. What sort of men were they? Not Europeans, but what nationality other than that I cannot say. They were too far away for me to see that.\n\n790. After your junk began to sink by the bows did it still remain afloat so far as the stern was concerned? That is correct.\n\n## Continued Examination\n\n791. What happened to Yeung Yat-hei and his family? They came over to our junk.\n\n792. How did they get over to your junk? They came over in a small sampan.\n\n793. How long did you all remain on your junk? Three days and three nights. Then the craft went ashore.\n\n794. After three days and three nights did you see another junk? No. For three days and three nights we saw nobody.\n\n795. At the end of the three days and three nights did you see another junk? Yes, one junk and that junk towed us away.\n\n796. Do you know the name of the master of that other junk that towed you away? Wong Cho-sam.\n\n797. Where did he tow you to? San Mei.\n\n798. Was anyone on board your junk injured or killed? No, nobody was injured aboard our junk.\n\n799. Does your junk carry any cannon? We had cannon on board but when our junk was shot at the cannon were dropped overboard.\n\n800. Did you fire these cannon? No, how dare we?\n\n801. Have you ever fired these cannon? No, we have never had occasion to use these cannon.\n\n## Further Examination by the Chairman\n\n802. You say that the 12 junks were fishing in pairs? Yes.\n\n803. Can you describe to me the formation you were fishing in? Can you go down to the table and see if you can place where the different pairs were? (Witness does so and uses paper weights for his demonstration.)\n\n| Pair | Name |\n| --- | --- |\n| × | Chan Kau |\n| * | Fung Kam-shing |\n| x | Li Mun |\n|  | Ng Ying-kit |\n| x | Lam Chu |\n| × | Lam Yung-shing & Lam Yung-hei |\n| × | Lam Fuk-tai |\n|  | Shek Kai-cheung |\n\nLighthouse. Submarine's approach.\n\n804. Chairman: What direction did the submarine come from - was it from north, south, east or west, when you first saw it? From a north-westerly direction.\n\n805. That is down the China coast? Yes.\n\n806. You have shown me Lam Fuk-tai and Shek Kai-cheung's junks - tell me how far were these two junks from the pair that was fishing next to them, that is Lam Yung-shing and Lam Yung-hei's junks? The nearest pair of junks was Lam Chu's junks.\n\n807. How far away was that? Still very far away - the length of six or seven coils* of rope.\n\n808. Was there about the same distance between every pair of fishing junks? Our junks were a little further away.\n\n809. How far away were you from the nearest other pair of junks? Our junk was nearest to Fung Hing-wo's junk. The distance was about 4 coils of rope away.\n\n810. Did you remain on deck throughout the whole of this incident until the submarine fired at your own junk? Although I was on deck all the time up to the moment that our junk was shot at I was at work; I did not stop to watch what the others were doing.\n\n* See footnote to No. 673 on p. 26.\n\nPage 31  \n—  \n[10th witness Chan Yat-san.]  \n\nPage 229",

        "content_text": "# Witness Testimonies\n\n## Dr. Bau Tsu-zeung and Ng Ying-kit\n\n[17th witness Bau Tsu-zeung.] \n[12th witness Ng Ying-kit (recalled).] \n\n1224. Dr. Bau: The wounds were fairly clean wounds, and slightly septic. \n1225. Mr. Whyatt: Could you express any opinion as to how they might have been caused? Many of the lacerated wounds were most likely caused by some blunt object, and the superficial wounds were mostly caused by the splinters like those that were removed - by pieces of wood.\n\n1226. If I understand you correctly, some of the wounds were caused by splinters of wood? Would those be splinters of wood moving with considerable force? Very great force: the wound that the piece of metal was extracted from must have been caused by a fragment of a shell or bullet.\n\n1227. Chairman: And what about the fragments of wood? How do you suggest the splinters got into the buttocks? They must have been driven in by some force. \n1228. By some considerable force? Yes.\n\n1229. You do not get splinters of wood there even by sitting about in junks. I am afraid I am not in a position yet to put an expert in the box on the question of the origin of these exhibits that have been produced. I hope to be in a position to do so on Thursday, but I think there are one or two matters which might be cleared up if certain witnesses were recalled which at the moment are a little obscure.\n\n1230. Mr. Whyatt to Commissioners: ...\n\n1231. Chairman: There are one or two matters about which I and my brother members are still in the dark. If these can be cleared up, it will be of great help. Possibly it might help if Dr. Bau might be able to identify his specific witnesses. One might begin with that. Dr. Bau has told us about the injuries which bear resemblance to the injuries of each of the witnesses we have seen, and specific identification of the witnesses by Dr. Bau might help.\n\n1232. Mr. Whyatt: If they are in court, Dr. Bau could identify them now. \n1233. Chairman: He might identify Lai Yau, Ho Kau, Li Tai, and Lai Pak-yau specifically if he can.\n\n1234. Mr. Whyatt: I am told that Dr. Bau took photographs of these men before he treated them, and he has got copies of the photographs of those men with him today. \n(Photographs handed in).*\n\n1235. Chairman: That is the condition they were in when you treated them? They were taken two days after admission.\n\n1236. Mr. Whyatt: After you had given them some treatment? That is right. \n1237. (5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th witnesses brought in).\n\n1238. Mr. Whyatt: Have you seen this man before? Yes, he is Li Tai. I think...\n1239. Have you seen this man before? Yes, he is Lai Yau; he was only slightly wounded.\n\n1240. Chairman: Those are the same four men you attended? Yes.\n\n1241. Will you leave those photographs with the Commission? Yes, certainly. \n(Witness left witness box).\n\n1242. Mr. Whyatt: If it is convenient, I should like to recall Ng Ying-kit because there is one matter which I ought to have asked him about which I forgot. \nTwelfth Witness. Ng Ying-kit, (recalled).\n\n1243. Ng Ying-kit (on former declaration).\n\n1244. Mr. Whyatt: Ng Ying-kit, you told us this morning that you came to Hong Kong the other day from San Mei? Yes, sir.\n\n1245. I think you told us also that you knew a man named Lam Fuk-tai, and also Shek Kai-cheung? I know them.\n\n1246. Those two were fishing as a pair on the morning when you were attacked by the submarine? Yes, sir.\n\n## Ng Ying-kit and Lam Chu Recalled\n\n[12th witness Ng Ying-kit (recalled).] \n[1st witness Lam Chu (recalled).] \n\n1247. Will you tell us this - whilst you were in San Mei after this attack and before you came back to Hong Kong, did you see anything of the people who had been on board Lam Fuk-tai and Shek Kai-cheung's junks? I saw some of the fokis from those two junks in San Mei.\n\n1248. How many did you see altogether in San Mei? I am not quite sure; I think I saw about ten fokis altogether from these two junks.\n\n1249. And how many people would there be before these two junks were attacked? Including old and young, male and female, sixty in all.\n\n1250. Ten of them you saw at San Mei. Have you any idea what happened to the remaining fifty? They are all dead.\n\n1251. No news of them anywhere? No news of them at all. \n1252. Mr. Whyatt to Commissioners: That was the matter I wanted Ng Ying-kit to be recalled about. I think you would like Lam Chu in the witness box again. \nLam Chu (recalled). \nFirst Witness.\n\n1253. Lam Chu (on former declaration).\n\n1254. Mr. Whyatt: Perhaps it would be more convenient if you put the questions to this witness, Mr. Chairman.\n\n1255. Chairman: Lam Chu, you told us yesterday morning how the twelve junks were all fishing off Chelong, and described their position as a broken ring off the light? Yes, sir.\n\n1256. You told us that your junk and that of Shek Kai-cheung, who was fishing with you, were at one end of that broken ring? Yes.\n\n1257. Now, in what direction were your bows facing when you first appreciated that the submarine was approaching you? At that moment, the bow of the junk was pointing southwest. Our three pairs...\n\n1258. About what distance was there between each pair of junks? were quite close.\n\n1259. That is yours, Lam Fuk-tai's, Lam Yung-shing's? Yes.\n\n| Question | Answer |\n| --- | --- |\n| 1260. About how far between each pair? | Lam Yung-shing's pair as far as from here to Tsimshatsui.* |\n| 1261. And between Lam Yung-shing's and Lam Fuk-tai's? | About the same distance as I have described. |\n| 1262. Between yours and Chau Kau's? | Much further than the distance I have described. |\n| 1263. Could you suggest any distance between Chan Kau's pair and Fung Kam-shing's? | Those other three pairs were all close to one another, and I think the distance between them would be from here to Tsimshatsui. |\n| 1264. The same thing about Fung Kam-shing's pair and Ng Ying-kit's pair? | About that. |\n\n1265. You told us your bows were facing southwest. Can you give me any indication of the bearing of Chelong light from your junk at the time the submarine first appeared? At that time, the Chelong lighthouse was behind our stern.\n\n1266. Directly behind - that would be northeast? About that. \n1267. And how far would your junk be from the Chelong light? Very far away. \nIt would...\n\n1268. How far away? I could not see the lighthouse from where I was. take a steamer about an hour to go to the lighthouse from where we were.\n\n1269. As far as from here to Cheung Chau? Much farther than the distance from here to Cheung Chau. About as far as Macao.†\n\n1270. Macao? Yes.\n\n1271. I think you told us yesterday morning that you had been able to see the light from Chelong? We could not see the light, but we could see the reflection.\n\n* A distance of about a mile. \n† A distance of thirty-eight miles.",

        "content_text": "243\n\n8\n\nCONFERRING OF DEGREES\n\nNEED OF GIRL STUDENTS' HOSTEL AND PLAYING FIELDS URGED\n\nCHANCELLOR AND UNIVERSITY\n\nThe twenty-ninth Congregation of the Hongkong University for the conferring of degrees was held yesterday when His Excellency the Governor, Sir Geoffry Northcote, acted for the first time at this function in his capacity of Chancellor.\n\nMr. D. J. Sloss, C.B.E., M.A., referred to the lack of a hostel for the girl students, who had increased in numbers, and the insufficiency of playing fields generally. In a generous tribute to his predecessor, Mr. Sloss mentioned that a considerable number of books had been donated to the University by Sir William Hornell.\n\nThe Procession marshalled in the robing room soon after the Chancellor arrived and then, led by the Mace Bearer, walked through the cloisters.\n\nThe Chancellor declared the Congregation open, and the Vice-Chancellor made the opening address.\n\nMr. Sloss said: It has been customary for the Congregation to comment upon the events of the preceding year. As I have been here only two months I cannot do this, and therefore I shall limit myself in the main to obvious and non-controversial issues.\n\nA Royal Patron\n\nHis Excellency said: The past year has been notably eventful. During its passage the University lost a Chancellor in Sir Andrew Caldecott who, though his tenure of his office was short, took a keen interest in the welfare of the University.\n\nThe General Library of the University has been enriched by a gift of about 2,000 volumes from Sir William Hornell. Many of the books in Sir William's gift would now be difficult to obtain, and they increase the value of the Library.\n\nThe Chinese part of the Library has also found friends. Two large collections of good books, some in rare editions, lent from Canton for long periods of use in this Library.\n\nTo this I would like to add a few words to recall Sir William's eminent services to education before he came here—the achievements, in fact, with which were the use of his coming to Hongkong. He entered the Indian Education Service early in life and after seven years' distinguished work in Bengal he was recalled to the Board of Education in London where he worked in the Department of Special Enquiries and Reports with distinguished colleagues such as Sir Frank Heath and Mr. C: W. Twenty-four years later he came to Hongkong as Vice-Chancellor.\n\nSir William's hospitality was a fine influence in the University. His genial and kindly nature endeared him to his friends, and the memory of his geniality and his \"fairy god-mother\" kindnesses, which endeared him to a wide circle of friends and, not least, to the students of this University.\n\nOne of the oldest of Sir William's colleagues writes of him: \"During his thirteen years of office as Vice-Chancellor Sir William Hornell had many perplexities and problems to face. Throughout all these difficulties he always tried to do whatever he could to make members of his staff more efficient at their work and more contended in their conditions of service.\"\n\nHe returned to India in 1913 as Director of Public Instruction in Bengal.\n\nThe story of this University has been a story of transitions from crisis to crisis, and Sir William worthily filled a Vice-Chancellor's place.\n\nWilliam's place has been worthily filled by a Vice-Chancellor whose ripe experience makes him peculiarly welcome at the present juncture.\n\nThe Chancellor made a studied reference to the deliberations of the Committee which recently published recommendations for changes in the University administration, but laid most stress on the need for greater attention to the teaching of hygiene and the need for accommodation for girl students.\n\nThe University's great annual event was favoured by the weather, and the number of graduates in the University in 1937 has risen from a normal 50 to an actual 77.\n\nSeating and standing space and inside the Great Hall was fully occupied long before 5 p.m.\n\nThe Deans of the Faculties of Medicine, Engineering, and Arts then presented their graduates in succession, and the Chancellor conferred the respective degrees on each graduate, as they stepped forward with new hoods, and afterwards shook hands with each of them.\n\nThe Vice-Chancellor next read out the names of students in absentia on whom degrees were conferred, and presented the scholarship winners, with whom the Chancellor also shook hands.\n\nThe Graduates\n\nThe graduates of 1937 were:\n\nDegree of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery.—R. E. Alvares, Oni Kee-wan, Yang Ke, M. P. H. Itoh, W. Heng, H. L. Ozorio. Yeang Cheng-hin Kan Lai-to, G. A. V.

R. T. Naidu and G. A. V. Ribeiro, the Ho Fook and Chan Kai Ming Engineering Scholarship, G. M. Cornfeld.\n\nThe Ho Fook and Chan Kai Ming Arts Scholarship, Wu Hei-tak.\n\nPhysical Training\n\nIn one respect, I am advised, student life at the University might be quickened and that is by devoting a little more time and thought to generally collective Physical Training.\n\nAs is well known, modern thought to-day, puts into practice a growingly closer alliance between the mind and the body, and it would be wise to encourage and help members of the staff to attend scientific conferences in other parts of the world and the students of the University to travel for purposes of study.\n\nChancellor's Address\n\nHis Excellency said: I turn for a moment to a material need of the University which is becoming more and more urgent year by year. 90 were women. For them the University so far, has not been able to provide a residential hall, nor even a hostel in which they could be housed collectively.\n\nThus on the one hand they are without the discipline and tutelage which are essential conditions of sound student life, and on the other they are deprived of the experience of a corporate life which supplies a great stimulus to, and widens the horizon of, those who are fortunate enough to live in University colleges.\n\nMr. Sloss, the Vice-Chancellor, has just spoken of Sir William Hornell's many services to education and I would like to render a tribute to those members of this University who engage themselves in social activities in the interest of other less fortunate than themselves.\n\nI refer, of course, to the Education Society, the Medical Society, the Christian Association and the other bodies within the University which have as their aim the betterment of the poorest classes of the community.\n\nTheir service of love builds better than they know: for love alone is creative and ever transcends its conscious objectives.\n\nCommittee's Report\n\nBefore I end this address I would like to render a tribute to those members of this University who engage themselves in social activities in the interest of other less fortunate than themselves.\n\nCertain of them, for example the advice to invest most of the Superannuation Fund in the general funds of the University, appear to me to be non-controversial and to call for immediate implementation.\n\nThe report contains, however, many suggestions and recommendations concerning finance and organization which pertain to the Finance Committee and the Council rather than to the Senate and I trust that these will be considered by the former authorities while those concerning the curriculum are being considered by the latter.\n\nThe Courage with which (Applause).\n\nHis Excellency then declared the Congregation closed.\n\nProcession List\n\nThe Procession which comprised Members of the Court, Council, Senate and Faculties of the University and Wardens of the Hostels, was as follows:\n\nHis Excellency the Chancellor, preceded by the Mace Bearer, and followed by the Dean, Faculty of Engineering and Dean, Faculty of Arts; H.

Edwards at the Central Magistracy yesterday and pleaded guilty.\n\nDet, Sergeant Davies stated that defendant was employed by a firm on the third floor of the Marina House. On the morning in question, he went down to the first floor and entered a vacant office where some electrical repairs were being carried and so forth. That done, he took two lead pipes and placed them across the alleyway to the St. Francis Hotel, and started to walk across to the hotel. Midway, the pipes gave way, and he fell, from a height of about 30 feet, and had to receive medical attention. The defendant admitted that his intention was to commit a larceny in the hotel.\n\nHis Worship bound defendant over in the sum of $50 to be of good behaviour for a year, and remarked that he had learned a good lesson.\n\nHOUSEBREAKING ATTEMPT\n\nMr. D. Keys, of 3 Cameron Road, reported to the police on Tuesday that some person attempted to enter his house between 10 p.m. on January 3 and 8 a.m. on January 4, by boring a hole in the front door. The intruder was apparently disturbed before he could enter the house, and ran away without taking anything.\n\nOPENING TO-DAY KING'S\n\nErrol Flynn wields a mean blade to save the prince—or is it the pauper?\n\nYou, too, can attend the coronation—and see the world's most impressive ceremony!\n\nSee how one boy's bravery saved the throne of Britain from the gangsters of the court!\n\nALSO LATEST COLOURED CARTOON\n\n“I'M A BIG SHOT NOW”\n\nOnly Mark Twain Could Have Written It!\n\nOnly These Stars Could Have Played It!\n\nOnly Warner Bros.

At 14.00 hours on 17th September, 1939, I left Castle Peak to go fishing. At about 20.00 hours we arrived off NIM WAN (稔灣) and started fishing. At about 21.00 hours on same date, while we were fishing at a spot between 100 and 200 \"Cheungs\" (i.e. about 2000 and 3000 feet) off the shore at NIM WAN, a Japanese motor boat approached us from the direction of LIN TING (蓮塘) and ordered us to stop. At the same time I heard several shots fired. We lowered our sail and stopped. The Japanese motor boat came alongside and about twelve Japanese dressed in Khaki uniforms and carrying rifles boarded our junk. We all knelt down and begged to be spared. The Japanese lowered my dinghy by cutting the ropes. They then pointed to the dinghy and ordered us all aboard. We all went aboard the dinghy and the Japanese, by means of signs, ordered us to sail away. \n\nSoon afterwards I saw that my junk was ablaze. We rowed to the shore and went up a hill at NIM WAN from where we watched the junk burning. It took us three hours to reach the shore using our hands as oars. I did not see the Japanese vessel again. We all remained on the hill till the following morning when I rowed my sampan out to my junk which was now partially submerged at the spot at which the Japanese had boarded us. I then rowed the sampan up DEEP BAY and on the way met a friend named...",

On board I had a crew of nine and three fokies from the HOI LEE Company. The cargo consisted of chickens, ducks, pigs and earthenware.\n\nAt about 15.30 hours when we were being towed off FUNG BAY I saw a Japanese trawler come from a southernly direction. The trawler came along the starboard side of the KWONG HING. We were then approximately 1 mile to East of mouth of FUNG BAY. It was painted grey, had two masts, one funnel and was flying a Japanese Mercantile Flag at its stern. I saw two Japanese board the KWONG HING and tie ropes from the trawler. About 15 minutes later the trawler went ahead of the KWONG HING and started to tow the launch and my junk in the direction of SAM MUN KWAN. On the way to SAM MUN I saw a Japanese take down the British flag at the stern of the KWONG HING and cover up the flags painted on the sides of the launch with cloth.\n\nWe arrived alongside a battle ship at SAM MUN KWAN at 19.00 hours. The trawler came and lay along the port side of the KWONG HING. All of us on the junk were ordered onto the KWONG HING by a Japanese who spoke Punti. The Japanese who spoke Punti was dressed in khaki and he addressed my crew and the crew of the KWONG HING by saying \"Do not try to transport ammunition to CHIANG KAI SHEK, if you do I will not release you. If you are good citizens I will let you go.'\n\nWe were all then ordered back to the junk.\n\nAt about 20.00 hours the KWONG HING started to sail away and towed my junk. We arrived at Shaukiwan about 02.00 hours and from there we were towed to Yaumati at 06.00 hours.\n\nThe master PANG KAM CHIU of the KWONG HING and one of the...",

T4442M residing on Kong Village, Ping Hoi.\n\n## Statement\nI am the master of the above junk which left Ping Hoi (Long. 114° 51' E. Lat. 22° 37' N.) at 18.00 hours on the 18.2.41 bound for Hong Kong. Altogether there were four persons on board including myself. My cargo consisted of 30 piculs of turnips value $80.00 and 5 pigs value $150.00, total value $230.00 Hong Kong.\n\nOn the 19.2.41 at 03.00 hours, my junk was sailing about 8 miles south of Sam Lun (Long 114° 30' E. Lat. 22° ... N.), I saw a Japanese trawler painted grey, two masts, one short funnel sailing in a southerly direction. When the trawler was a short distance away, some person shouted \"Hai Tau\" (stop). I lowered my sails and the trawler came alongside my junk. Two Japanese dressed in blue uniform and armed with a short sword boarded my junk. They searched my junk and made signs for me to put the pigs on board the trawler and dumped the turnips overboard. After that was done, the Japanese left, taking with them my junk licence. The trawler sailed towards Sam Lun An and I sailed for Shaukiwan, arriving at 11.00 hours on the 19.2.41. I reported at the Police Station on the 21.2.41 at 17.00 hours.\n\nValue of cargo $230.00 Hong Kong.\n\nSigned,  \n**H.T.

        "content_text": "## Colonial Office 46 \n## 89 \n(F4331/2916/10)\n\nExtract from report by r. K.E. Mogre forwarded by H.M. Consul General Kweilin 29th March, 1943.\n\n### Conditions in Hong Kong\n\nThe present condition in Hong Kong is worse than before. Compulsory conscription will soon come into force, and already men of young age between 18 and 40 are given evacuation permits under the greatest difficulty. Unless the Gendarmerie Headquarters sanction these permits, no one is allowed to leave Hong Kong; this has curbed any activities on the part of refugees to bribe the employees in the Civil Affairs office (Man Ching Po). Every young person has to pass medical examinations and their names recorded.\n\nKai Tack aerodrome has been extended; the whole road along the airfield has been broken up, and all the buildings along the Kai Tack Bund have been demolished. The Japs are going to extend the airfield up to the hillside and will have all stores, and even planes, placed in tunnels, which they plan to dig in the hills. They employ foreign prisoners of war and also Chinese to dig the fields. I have reliable information that foreign prisoners are only fed with rice, two meals a day, and they work with hardly any clothing at all, some with a strip of loin cloth. The lack of clothing is due to what they had having gone to shreds. They receive no pay. The Chinese workers receive rice with vegetables and a small slice of meat and receive 30 cents in Military yen per day. Several foreign prisoners have been killed and wounded during the recent raids when bombs were dropped on the aerodrome.\n\nThe tuberculosis scourge is taking a heavy toll of the population in Hong Kong due to lack of nourishment.\n\nThe four ships which were being built in Hong Kong at Taikoo and Whampoa Docks have been completed and are being fitted up. This information was given to me by one of the owners of Messrs. E. Hing, Shipchandlers and hardware merchants, for the Japs have bought from them materials for fitting the ships.\n\nPrice of rice in Hong Kong is M.Y. 1.20 per catty.\n\nThe following are also strategic points of military interest:\n- Luk Kwok Hotel, completely taken up by the Japanese Authorities as a Naval Officers' Home.\n- All Buildings from Luk Kwok Hotel up to the China Fleet Club premises. Huge quantities of cement and building materials are stored in godowns and vacant places around this place.\n- The dockyard is now operating, and many former workers have joined in. The machine shops and other establishments in the Naval Yard are now operating, including the dry dock; naval vessels necessitating quick and slight repairs are put in at Hong Kong. Heavily damaged vessels do not come into Hong Kong. Bombing of this point at night will save casualties amongst workers.\n- Japanese Naval officers of ranks above that of Petty Officer stay in quarters established amongst all buildings on Blue Pool Road, Wong Neichong Road, and Tai Hang Road. All houses on these roads may be considered as residences for Japanese Naval Officers.\n\nMost of the knitting factories and rubber works have opened up, making goods for the Japs. The rubber factories are melting down old tyres and getting raw rubber from Indo-China. Chan Wah Factory for radio receivers is now operating. All factories are under joint Chinese and Japanese ownership.\n\nWhen I arrived in Kwangchowan, I communicated with a Parsee merchant, Mr. P.K. Pavri, informing him that I would do my best to seek among my Chinese associates help to arrange a way by which Indians can get permits to leave Hong Kong. In this, I was greatly helped by Mr. Chiu Tse Wen, who is well acquainted with several Japanese agents, and he helped me to such an extent that Indians who applied for permits...",

LOCAL AFFAIRS\n\n(i) A case of abuse of authority on the part of the Chinese Military Delegation has recently been brought to the notice of the HONG KONG Government, resulting in the arrest, by order of the Commander-in-Chief, of one LI KAI YAN.\n\nOn 21st October four armed men, led by LI KAM YAN, took over the KWONG HING LUNG shipyard in the name of Capt. LING CHUNG PAN (an officer of the Chinese Navy who is accredited to the Chinese Military Delegation) on the grounds that the shipyard formerly belonged to the Japanese.\n\nA part-owner of a boat called \"SUNDY I\" was interviewed by LI KAI YAN, who took over the papers proving ownership to the boat and asked the part-owner for $3,000 in consideration of releasing the boat to its joint owners. In the course of the conversation LI KAI YAN is alleged to have informed the part-owner that Kowloon was Chinese territory and that the Chinese were entitled to take over all ships and property in Kowloon which had belonged to the Japanese.\n\nLI KAI YAN subsequently saw the other part-owner of the boat, who told him that before handing over the $3,000 demanded, he must have a written document signed by Capt. LING. This was refused by LI KAI YAN, who, on 26th October, informed one of the partners that General CHAN TSAU DUY had ordered the boat to be towed into Chinese waters. Meanwhile, the other partner had visited Capt. LING in the Peninsula Hotel, Kowloon, only to be told by the latter that he would attend to the matter upon production of the papers proving ownership of the boat, which had, of course, already been appropriated by LI KAI YAN.\n\nOn 30th October the Commodore-in-Charge, HONG KONG, interviewed Capt. LING, who informed him that the shipyard had been taken over by Chinese guards on the orders of General PAN. Capt. LING was instructed by the Commodore-in-Charge to remove the guards and to place them on Japanese material only. Four days later, the Commander-in-Chief personally informed General PAN that he understood that the four armed men were still at the shipyard and asked why this was so. General PAN replied that no British guards had yet been forthcoming to take over from the Chinese, but upon arrangements being made for a guard to take over the same afternoon, he agreed to remove his men.\n\nMeanwhile, on 30th October, LI KAI YAN was arrested by order of the Commander-in-Chief on a charge of attempted extortion. General PAN was informed of the arrest and he agreed that the man should be punished if proved guilty of the charge. The present position is that LI KAI YAN has appeared before the Military Court and been remanded for a week pending further evidence.\n\n(ii) Local land-owners at PING SHAN continue to evidence the disfavour with which they view the construction of the new airfield, as reported in Weekly Intelligence Summary No. 6. In addition to returning their notices to vacate and petitioning the Government, they are now writing letters to the press and exhibiting posters in the neighbourhood. In the view of an officer who has worked with the B.A.A.G., these posters are typically \"Red\" in appearance and composition.",

It transpired that a body of five Chinese officers and fourteen other ranks had entered MACAO some hours previously, under arms and without the sanction of the Portuguese authorities, and had proceeded to requisition the entire ninth floor of the Grand Hotel.\n\nThe Portuguese police were called out and some 20 or 30 of them, armed with tommy-guns and rifles, threw a cordon around the building and occupied the remaining floors of the hotel. An interview was then conducted with the senior Chinese officer and it was pointed out to him by Captain CUNHA (through an interpreter) that the Chinese troops had entered the Colony without authority and that under international law it was not permitted for troops of other countries to march through the streets of a neutral power carrying arms.\n\nThe Chinese officer, who was dressed in American uniform but wore no badges of rank or identification, replied in a truculent manner that he was under orders from his immediate superior Gen. CHAN FA KUI, and that he and his men had come from CANTON (as the advance party of a larger force) for the purposes of arresting collaborators and war criminals in MACAO, collecting Japanese war materials, and occupying buildings previously held by the Japanese or WANG CHING WEI's puppets. He refused in any way to alter the stand he had taken up.\n\nLater in the day, however, after further discussion between Captain CUNHA and the Chinese officer, a compromise was reached whereby the Chinese troops withdrew to houses allocated for their use by the Portuguese authorities, under orders to leave their arms there when walking in the streets. The Chinese officer apologised to CAPTAIN CUNHA for his attitude but maintained that pending the receipt of further instructions from his superior officer he could neither withdraw from the Colony nor hand over his arms.\n\nIt is suggested by the British Army officer concerned that the incident is connected with the recent arrival in MACAO in civilian clothes of Gen. CHENG KOK YIA, who in presenting his credentials stated that the purpose of his visit was to co-ordinate the actions of the Chinese and Macao Governments in the apprehension of certain war criminals, who he demanded should be handed over to him. He further demanded the immediate closing down of all gambling saloons and opium dens in the Colony on the orders of Generalissimo CHIANG KAI-SHEK. He was very properly informed that since MACAO was Portuguese territory the Generalissimo's orders carried no weight.\n\nIt is noted that the \"TONG FONG\" press, at least, has been at pains to lay down the MACAO incident as a matter of little moment which has now been satisfactorily settled.\n\n12. SPECIAL BRIEF - \"A\"\n\nSUMMARY OF THE MILITARY SITUATION IN CHINA\n\nI. THE KUOMINTANG AND THE COMMUNISTS:-\n\nJudging by the chief political development of the past week it seems evident that Chungking and the Communists are still competing for the control of Hopei (including Peiping and Tientsin), Inner Mongolia, Suiyuan, Shansi and Shantung provinces. In Shantung the Communists are holding Weihaiwei and Chefoo while the Chungking troops are occupying Tsingtao. The Communist Mayor of Weihaiwei stated that the Communist garrison would fight to the finish if Chungking attempted to oust the Communists from the Shantung peninsula. The proposal made in some Chungking circles...",

He accepted the offer, knowing his activities were connected with enemy espionage operations. Up to about April 43, he received secret documents from LUI KA YAN on dozens of occasions, which he introduced clandestinely into the P.O.W. Camps, and brought out secret reports from the P.O.Ws addressed to the British organization in China, handing them over to LUI KA YAN. In April 43, when his company made him a watchman, he approached and made use of the accused LEE HING HOI and others who drove the bus his company rented to the P.O.W. Camps, and thus continued his operations.\n\nThe accused LEE HING HOI drove a bus for the Kowloon Omnibus Company. When asked by LEE LAM to assist in conveying documents to the P.O.Ws in the camp, he agreed, knowing these activities were connected with espionage on behalf of the enemy. From the end of April 43 to June 43, he secretly introduced documents on numerous occasions to P.O.Ws in the Camps; and he also received secret documents from the P.O.Ws and handed them to LEE LAM.\n\nThe accused LAU TAK OI lived together with LOIS FOOK WING from about April 1940. When LOIS FOOK WING went over to the British organization in China in March 1943, LAU TAK OI helped maintain communications with him, knowing he was engaged in espionage activities directed against the Japanese forces.\n\nThe accused CHAN WAI CHI is the wife of YEUNG SAU TAK. When YEUNG SAU TAK went with LOIS FOOK WING to the British organization in China, she knew he was engaged in espionage work directed against the Japanese forces and helped maintain communications with him.\n\nThe accused CHAN FING FUN was a member of the former Reserve Police Force. From June 1942, he was employed as a construction engineer at KAI TAK Airfield. About the end of January 1943, he met the late CHAN FEI and was asked for information about the airfield. He gave CHAN FEI information about various installation projects, knowing this was espionage activity on behalf of the enemy.\n\nThe accused LAU TAK KWONG was a fireman in the Hongkong Gendarmerie and is a brother of LAU TAK OI. About the middle of April 43, LOIS FOOK WING visited him and asked for help in espionage work against the Japanese on behalf of the British. He agreed and, up to June 1943, investigated and reported on the fire brigade of the gendarmerie and the progress made in restoring various kinds of industry in Hongkong. He also allowed his house to be used as a repository for secret articles to be passed to LOIS FOOK WING.\n\n1.\n\n2.\n\nProof's\n\nIn the trial of each of the accused in open court, the depositions of the judicial departments in all cases tally.\n\nExhibits taken: 5 wireless receiving sets, one bottle of secret ink, one secret document from the British organization in WAICHO addressed to LOIS FOOK TING.\n\nAccording to Military Law, the acts of the accused YEUNG SAU TAK, CHING YUET, William John WHITE, YAN CHEUK MING, CHEUNG YUNG SAM, LUK CHUNG KIT, HO YAU, LEE LAM, LEE HING HOI, LAU TAK OI, CHAN WAI CHI, CHAN FING FUN, LAU TAK KWONG, constitute a crime under Clause 2 sub-section 2 of the Hongkong Occupied Territory Governor-General's Department Military Code; the acts of the accused LUIS CARLOS ROZARIO SOUSA, ALEXANDER CHRISTY SHIMTON, LEUNG HING, FREDERICK IVAN GEORGE HALL, BRADLEY, DOUGLAS WILLIAM WATERTON, HUBERT STANLEY REES, WALTER RICHARDSON SCOTT, JOHN ALEXANDER FRASER, FRANK ROBERT, WILLIAM JOHN ANDERSON, JAMES LESLIE ANDERSON, constitute a crime under Clause 2 sub-section 3 of the above. Of the punishments provided in Clause 6 of the above code, a sentence of death was passed on the accused YEUNG SAU TAK, CHENG YUET, WILLIAM JOHN WHITE, YAN CHEUK MING, CHEUNG YUNG SAM, LUK CHUNG KIT, LEE LAM, LEE HING HOI, LAU TAK OI, CHAN FING FUN,\n\n...LAU TAK KWONG.",

        "content_text": "# Ceremony In Ruins Of University\n\n(nued from Page 2)\n\non Political Economy and the Professor of Education talked on Psychology to earnest audiences.\n\nI wish I could assure you that this beginning will develop quickly into a full re-establishment of the University. Every effort is being made to get the University going but, as you know, we have to start from barren walls and looted buildings. Efforts have been concentrated on opening the University for first-year classes in October of this year. We cannot be sure that we shall achieve this, get some classes going and due notice will be given of anything that is accomplished.\n\nThe date of opening for classes in Science, Medicine and Engineering depends on securing the necessary minimum of equipment. The latest information from the Vice-Chancellor, Mr. Sloss, who is working hard at home for the University, is that the equipment may be ready for shipping by September of this year but that with top priority all along the line it could not be available for use in Hong Kong before December.\n\nIt is hoped that Mr. Boxer, the Registrar, will be returning shortly and that Professors Simpson and Robertson will also be coming back in a few months.\n\n\"By his brilliant popular lectures on various topics, his work in association with nutrition problems and above all by his cheerful example no one in the camp did more than Dr. Herklots in maintaining the morale of internees in those dreary days,\"\n\n\"An enthusiastic crowd of young men thronged the lectures of the late Professor Froid who spoke on Electricity, Magnetism, Physics - matters more or less germane to their own peacetime organisations.\n\n\"In this way the literary standard of the internees was raised though not even University Professors could do anything with, or to, those of them who persisted in saying 'O.K.' instead of 'Yes.'\n\n\"So, Ladies and Gentlemen, if the University in its corporate capacity might seem to have been in abeyance there was no break in the continuity of its activities.\n\n\"Furthermore the graduates of to-day are the students of 1941 and I venture to add that the Registrar of twenty-seven years ago is re-appearing momentarily in that capacity to-day.\n\nKernel Remains\n\n\"In spite of to-day's comparatively austere proceedings I shall not be surprised if they are recorded in the University's history as pregnant with significance as any that have been held within these walls.\n\n\"I say 'within these walls.' I cannot say 'under this roof,' as our shell is broken but if the wholesome kernel remains and if the new Bachelors of Medicine have proceeded to their degrees in a shattered building I would remind them that a roof is but a top dressing and a graduate is a graduate 'for a' that.\"\n\n\"I see in this ceremony the beginning of a renaissance and although there will inevitably be grievous obstacles in the way of our academic rehabilitation, I foresee for this University in Hong Kong a future of expanding usefulness in the Far East which will transcend its considerable achievements in the past.\"\n\n## Commander-in-Chief's Speech\n\nThe conferment of the Degrees followed, after which Vice-Admiral Sir Cecil Harcourt, the Commander-in-Chief, addressed the gathering,\n\nThe self-discipline between relationship pline and self-government. This, said His Excellency, is a great day in the annals of this University - the day when we have our first public ceremony since the re-occupation of the Colony. It is a beginning and I am afraid only a small beginning but none the less a beginning. I emphasising the relationship between national discipline and self-discipline.\n\nHistory has shown that no nation has flourished unless that nation has maintained a high standard of discipline. Most of the success of the Nazis was due to the high standard of discipline which they enforced, but that discipline was what I call the discipline of fear - discipline maintained by the Secret Police and the threat of the concentration camp. The highest form of discipline is, of course, self-discipline exercised by the individual exemplified by a high standard of a sense of a man's duty to his neighbour - called more simply in English \"playing the game\". This has not been achieved to a high degree by many countries. For instance, the Germans have never achieved it to a high degree, although the old German bureaucracy had a high standard of efficiency and integrity before they were destroyed by the Nazis. Britain, I feel, we have achieved as high a standard of self-discipline as most countries, in fact higher than most. The evidence of this is firstly the standard of integrity in all branches of our public services and it has also been made manifest recently by the absolutely negligible black market which has existed in Britain despite the very severe and continued rationing during six years of war. That record has shown Democracy in action.\n\nDemocracy - Democratic Government is not achieved merely by giving the franchise to the whole or a large portion of the population. It has to be built up step by step and must start with the acknowledgement of the rights of the individual, followed by the achievement of a high standard of integrity in the public service, which is done by the individuals comprising the community exercising self-government and self-discipline in their lives.\n\n## Liaison With China\n\nIn each step of the re-building of the University it is the intention to bear in mind always the importance of co-operation with the Universities and educational institutions of China. I am sure the importance of liaison with China is going to be a great factor in the future history of this University which numbers among its first students Dr. Sun Yat-sen. When I was in Chungking, the Generalissimo displayed great interest in the re-building of this University and spoke to me about the importance of getting the University going again as soon as possible, a view which I naturally very much shared with him. During my visit to Canton, I went to Ling Nam University and not only did I receive a very kind welcome but all the officials spoke most appreciatively to me of what Hong Kong University had done for Ling Nam before the Japanese attacked Hong Kong and also very kindly expressed their sincere wish to repay some of that debt by assisting Hong Kong University now. As you all know, a number of students from Hong Kong are now at Ling Nam University.\n\nWe have in Britain a form of Democratic Government which has been built up step by step during the centuries. For instance, in 1215 by the signing of Magna Charta the King became obedient to the law of the land and not a mere tyrant and despot as he continued to be in many countries for centuries after that date. In 1679 the Habeas Corpus Act established that no man should be thrown into prison and kept there without trial. Whilst this University started as a Medical College and teaches technical subjects, its activities and these rights must be well understood by the gaining of this civic sense - self-discipline which is the equivalent of civic sense. For it is only by the gaining of this civic sense that stable self-government can be achieved. Without this self-discipline, the establishment of universal franchise in any community means that there are thousands of people each working for their own selfish aims and caring little for the common good. The result in such cases is, as has been shown in various countries in recent years, not Democratic Government but what I call Democratic lack of government, or Democratic Anarchy.\n\nI ask you therefore to ponder these things, think over the implications, discuss them amongst yourselves, be honest with yourselves and maintain in yourselves that attitude to your neighbours that you would like them to maintain towards you.\n\nOnly in this way can genuine self-government be established in Hong Kong and whilst this University started as a Medical College and teaches technical subjects, it is essential that it should be understood that it is essential that the importance of self-discipline which is the equivalent of civic sense should be maintained.\n\n## The Degrees\n\n**Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery** are conferred upon the following:\n\n| Name |\n| --- |\n| Au Wai Man |\n| Au Kit Man |\n| Bun Pak Sun |\n| Chan Sing Boon |\n| Chan Wai Kai |\n| Ho Hung Kin |\n| Ip Yee |\n| Lam Shu Kee |\n| Leung Yau Shun |\n| Li Hin Lun |\n| Li Fook Kuen |\n| Ling Hong |\n| Loke Choong She |\n| Look Mang Wai |\n| Oh Kim Seng |\n| Tang Hon Chiu |\n| Tong Kwok Kee |\n| Wong Mook Foo |\n| Wong Siao Bu |\n| Yap Neow Foo |\n| Wu Kay Hau |\n| Yeoh Oon Khor |\n| Yu Shiu On |\n\nand in absentia upon:\n\n| Name |\n| --- |\n| Cheung King Ho |\n| Fung Kam Tat |\n| Hooi Peng Kwan |\n| Hui Kwan Lun |\n| Kaan Sze Kin |\n| Lam Yu Shing |\n| Siu Ka Hee |\n| Tan Kim Hoang |\n| Tsai Kam Fong |\n| Yan Jin Yau |",

        "content_text": "# ESCAPE FROM HONG KONG PEACE CONFERENCES\n\n(Continued from Page 3)\n\nAfter this I had no idea where I was to go, but as my escort boarded one of the buses I got on at the other off. At last we began to breathe freely but, to my disappointment, my escort got off and we only sailed across Three Fathoms Cove to another village called Sam Chung. Here we stayed for two days and nights and, as it was only one more day to Chinese New Year, we almost gave up hope of reaching Free China. Late in the afternoon of the sixth day after the start of my journey, however, we proceeded as far as Tong, and when my escort alighted I started to sail down Tolo Channel.\n\nNear the mouth of the Channel we anchored at about 10 p.m. We were then spent about the most uncomfortable night that I can ever remember. There were 17 people, with luggage, crammed into the small well at the stern of the junk. The floor space was approximately 36 square feet, so there was little more than 2 square feet per person. I think very few of us slept more than a few moments that night.\n\nAt the crack of dawn we were off again, and soon came in sight of the pretty islands at the mouth of Tolo Channel. At last we sighted Tap Mun, the island home of my mythical patient. Fortunately, I never had occasion to produce the letter summoning me to visit a hypothetical patient on Tap Mun island, and I started off in the wake of my guide who took the road which led towards Kai Tak airport.\n\nThe guide, who had been twice over the road, had already ascertained at what points Japanese sentries were posted, and at what times they changed guard. The guards at the entrance to the airport changed duty at 8 a.m. and it was planned that we should pass by at that time, when presumably the soldiers would be somewhat less intent on scrutinising the passers-by.\n\nThe plan worked perfectly, and the incoming guard marched past us a few moments before we reached the entrance to the airport. I was instructed, in a note handed to me by my second guide, to send a message to my friends after passing the island of Tap Mun in safety. I scribbled the following message on a piece of paper: \"Patient on island is well. Anticipate satisfactory progress.\" The star (*) was a pre-arranged signal indicating my name and continued safety. I handed the note to my guide, and over a year later learned that the message had been safely delivered.\n\nFrom Tap Mun we steered north-east across Mirs Bay towards Peng Chau Island and then almost due north to Sha U Chung. I carried a small watch-chain compass in my waist-coat pocket and, sewn into my inside parts, I had a map of the whole area, extending as far north as Kukong, which I had cut out of a Postal Atlas. These two things were of the utmost value during the rest of the journey, and I still count them among my most treasured possessions.\n\nLater we picked up a small sailing boat and made somewhat quicker progress. Two days before reaching Lulong I was able to send a telegram to the British Ambassador in Chungking telling him of my escape and asking him to inform my family in Australia, and at the same time to request my wife to cable out some much-needed money. On the way up we ran into two or three parties of men who had escaped from North Point and Shamshuipo camps and were delighted to make their acquaintance and to hear their stories. Some of them, I am glad to say, are back in Hong Kong again at the present moment.\n\nAfter reaching Lulong we felt, for the first time, that all risk was over. We had reached a point where motor transport was available and there was a well-made road leading to our immediate destination of Kukong.\n\nAt Lulong, we parted company. Marsman, Lavrov, and their remaining Chinese friend had an opportunity of travelling by private car to Kukong, so they went ahead. I proceeded by the somewhat more tedious transportation offered by a salt truck. It was my first experience of the devious methods necessary for obtaining the privilege of joining the crowded mass of humanity on one of these trucks, and I shall always be grateful to a young student of Lingnam University who initiated me into the technique.\n\n## Journey To Kukong\n\nOn the journey to Kukong was the inevitable breakdown of the boat and made somewhat quicker progress. Two days before reaching Lulong I was able to send a telegram to the British Ambassador in Chungking. The weather was extremely cold and there was actual snow on the hills above Sha U Chung. I felt very glad that I had sewn an old goatskin into my raincoat.\n\nWe passed through beautiful country, and some of it reminded me forcibly of parts of Surrey. If it had not been for the circumstances of our journey we could have imagined ourselves on somewhat strenuous walking tour.\n\nThe hospitality of the villagers was amazing. We met with nothing but the utmost kindness, courtesy, and generosity at their hands. We were robbed by a lone bandit, who robbed us each in turn of wrist watches, fountain pens, and money. I only lost my fountain pen; I had no money and my Rolex wrist watch was pushed above my elbow and covered by a bandage over skin painted with mercurochrome.\n\nMy time has already gone and I shall not attempt to tell the story of the Hong Kong University students in China, as that has already been told in full elsewhere. But I think there is no time to tell the story of the rest of my experience in ex-China.\n\n## Guide Turns Up\n\nOn the following morning my permanent guide turned up. I recognised him at once by the fact that he was carrying my suitcase and a bundle containing my Jaeger sleeping bag. For the rest of the journey, about 4 p.m. on the afternoon of the fourth day, there was a great commotion in the village. Villagers dashed about excitedly and soon gunboats had apparently come up from Hong Kong, and at last I was able to get into touch with friends whom I knew.\n\n## Reach Wai Chow\n\nWe reached Wai Chow after five strenuous days of walking and on the third day after leaving Lulong. It had taken me twenty days to complete the journey from Hong Kong.\n\n## Future of University\n\nUltimately some 346 Hong Kong University students, out of a total student body of about 600, made their way into Free China, of whom no fewer than 319 continued their studies at 17 different Chinese Universities.\n\nIn Chungking I went to see the British Ambassador, Sir Horace Seymour, and Mr Han Lih-wu, of the Sino-British Cultural Association. As a result of conversations with them, and with the Chinese Minister of Education, I returned almost immediately to Kukong, via Kweilin, carrying relief money for the students from British Government funds.\n\nThe addition of Marsman and his friends made the party six, and my plans had all been made on the assumption that a party of two could make good speed and would attract little attention. However, as things turned out, we had a very unpleasant experience during the second night. The guerillas and the crew of the junk slept on shore, leaving only the five of us who were refugees to sleep on the boat.\n\nAbout 3 a.m. I was awakened by the blinding light of an electric torch shining in my face and the barrel of a revolver pointed straight at my head. It was the first time I had been confronted with this particular type of situation and I must say one feels in rather a weak and essential position to be suddenly awakened out of a confused sleep to face such circumstances flat on one's back!\n\nThe lonely robber then dropped from the side of our junk into a waiting boat and was rowed away into the darkness.\n\nAt the Hosai Hospital I could literally say that I was penniless. I shall never forget the warmth of the welcome I received, nor the luxury of lying on a real bed again after sleeping for three weeks on bare boards, boat decks, and stone floors.\n\nAfter three hours I was taken up to the school on the hill and here, to my surprise, was ushered into a room where Messrs Marsman and Lavrov and two of their Chinese colleagues were waiting.\n\n\"No Impossible Problems In Pacific\"\n\n## FRASER IN AMERICA\n\nMr Fraser said he wanted such a conference immediately to follow the Paris Conference which would draft the peace treaty for the war in Europe.\n\n## SWORD SURRENDERED\n\nJapanese Commander At Malaya Ceremony\n\n### SERVICE CHIEFS PRESENT\n\nWashington, Feb. 25.\n\nOne of the highest-ranking Japanese officers in South-east Asia General Itakgaki, Commander of the 7th Area Army, embracing Malaya, Java, Sumatra, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, and parts of Siam and Borneo, has formally surrendered to the General Officer Commanding in Chief, Malaya Command, General Messervy, at a ceremony at the Command Headquarters in Kuala Lumpur, witnessed by a large gathering of Service chiefs.\n\nBe-ribboned, greying Itakgaki, at the head of a line of his staff officers, was marched onto the parade ground and halted between the lines of British and Indian guards to come to attention as General Messervy took up his position at a flag-draped table and called on him in a loud voice to surrender his sword.\n\nAt a slow, halting pace, the Japanese commander advanced to the table bearing his sword, encased in a colourful cloth bag tied with purple ribbon, and offered the sword across the Union Jack, after which General Messervy announced that the remaining 12 senior Japanese officers, headed by General Itakgaki, would hand over their swords to Brigadier C. P. Jones, C.B.E., M.C., the General's Staff Brigadier, at Malaya Command.\n\nMr Fraser foresaw \"no impossible problems in the Pacific. There will be problems, naturally. China has her many problems. There are other problems of organising the so-called trusteeships. There are also the economic and political problems concerning the stability of all Asia.\"\n\n## DANISH KING BETTER\n\nCopenhagen, Feb. 26.\n\nIt was officially announced today that King Christian's condition has improved.-United Press.\n\nPage 60\nPage 61",

        "content_text": "# SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST\n## 23rd MARCH, 1944\n### UNIVERSITY CEREMONY\n\n**Degrees Conferred On Medical Graduates In Great Hall Ruins**\n**C-IN-C SPEAKS ON CIVIC SENSE**\n\nIn the ruined, roofless Great Hall of the Hongkong University, the Degree of Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery was conferred upon 23 candidates by the University of Hongkong Medical Degrees Emergency Committee yesterday.\n\nThe Degree was also conferred upon 10 candidates \"in absentia.\"\n\nThe ceremony—the first held for four years—was without the usual pomp and splendour of former years, but was nevertheless impressive.\n\nIn an address the C-in-C, Hongkong, Vice-Admiral Sir Cecil Harcourt, said that every effort was being made to open the University for first-year classes in October. He also spoke on the importance of self-discipline which was, he said, the equivalent of civic sense. \"For it is only by the gaining of this civic sense that stable self-government can be achieved... Only in this way can genuine self-government be established in Hongkong and the people be prosperous, happy and free,\" he declared.\n\nThe candidates present were: Au Wai-man, Au Kit-man, Bun Pak-sun, Chan Sing-boon, Chan Wai-kai, Ho Hung-kin, Ip Yee, Lam Tang Wong Shu-kee, Leung Yau-shun, Li Hin-lun, Li Fook-kuen, Ling Tak-chu, Loke Choong-she, Look Mang-wai, Oh Kim-seng, Tong Hon-chiu, Tong Kwok-kee, Mook-foo, Wong Siao-bu, Wu Kay-hau, Yap Meow-foo, Yeoh Oon-thor, and Yu Shiu-on. Those honoured \"in absentia\" were: Cheung King-ho, Fung Kam-tat, Hooi Peng-kwan, Hui Kwan-lun, Kaan Sze-kin, Lam Yu-shing, Siu Ka-hee, Tan Kim-hoang, Tsai Kam-fong, and Yap Jin-yau.\n\nThe University lacked the machinery for awarding and conferring degrees. Obviously something had to be done about it. His Majesty the King in Council decided, just as less august bodies decide when in difficulties, that there must be a committee to deal with the matter.\n\nAccordingly, it was ordered that there should be constituted a Committee, to be known as the University of Hongkong Medical Degrees Emergency Committee. This Committee was empowered to exercise, in so far as they relate to medicine and surgery, the powers of the Senate of the University to determine what examinations and courses of study in other universities or places of learning should be deemed equivalent to examinations and courses of study in the University of Hongkong.\n\nAmong those present were Sir Shouson Chow, the Right Rev. Bishop R.O. Hall, Mr Leo D'Almada, Sir Robert Kotewall, Lieut-Col Wm Kay, Mr M.K. Lo, Dr and Mrs G.H. Thomas, Mr S.A. Gray (PRO), Col W.T. Ware, Mr Mok Kon-sang, Mr George She, Major D.F. Davis, Mr Chau Tsun-nin, the Rev. Frank Short, Major R. Lee, Major H.L. Ozorio, Mr and Mrs B.C.K. Hawkins, the Rev Cheung Wing-ngok, and a large number of University undergraduates.\n\nMembers of the University of Hongkong Medical Degrees Emergency Committee were Mr T.M. Hazelrigg (Chairman), Mr G.P. de Martin, Col J.P. Fehily, Col T.R. Rowell, Lieut-Col Gordon King, and Mr B.C.K. Hawkins.\n\nThe once Great Hall is a skeleton structure with only the bare walls standing. The window frames, the wooden flooring, and every vestige of woodwork have been looted. The roof has been removed and only the iron rafters now hold the walls together. Where flags and pennants hung on doorways, empty gaps now greet the eye.\n\n### Chairman's Address\n\nI wish to make it quite clear that each candidate for a degree must, as heretofore, have completed a five years' course of study at a University or place of learning, including at least two years at the University of Hongkong, and that no degree can be conferred without examination.\n\nThe principal function of the Committee has been to ensure that the course of study completed and the examinations passed by the candidates were equivalent to the comparable courses of study and examinations at the University of Hongkong.\n\nIn respect of each of the candidates upon whom degrees will be conferred to-day, the Committee is satisfied that the requirements of the Statutes of the University and of the Order of His Majesty in Council have been fulfilled.\n\nOne final point. It is particularly declared by the Order in Council that degrees conferred in accordance with its provisions shall be deemed to have been conferred at a Congregation of the whole University.\n\nShortly before 3 p.m., the Procession, headed by the successful candidates, and followed by Sir Cecil and members of the Emergency Committee, entered the Hall. The candidates took seats on either side of the Hall while Sir Cecil and the Emergency Committee took their positions at the official table, which was unadorned and without a covering.\n\nAfter he had declared the gathering open, Mr Hazelrigg said:\n\nWe are fortunate in having with us to-day Mr G.P. de Martin, who at one time acted as Registrar of this University and who is, I believe, the oldest surviving member of its Court. Mr de Martin has kindly consented to support the Committee, and I now call upon him to address the Meeting. (Applause).\n\nMr de Martin said: Before concluding this part of to-day's proceedings, it is my privilege to thank our visitors for their presence here. By joining with us in this necessarily truncated function, you bring with you a message of friendship and encouragement.\n\nThe events of December 1941 disrupted the lives of the undergraduates and called a halt to the activities of this University. Many of the undergraduates, however, escaped into China and pursued their studies in the Chinese Universities amid great difficulties. Some of the medical students, after passing their examinations, went on to render valuable services in their profession.\n\nWhen the dark days ended, the University career of these students was consummated by the conferment of degrees.\n\n### The King's Recognition\n(Continued on Page 8)",
