Jardine, Matheson & Co.'s office and godowns; and they seemed to have had a good many friends who cried out sufficiently loudly on the injustice of condemning innocent men to death to induce Sir John Bowring to give the men a second trial before himself and the Executive Council.\n\nAfter a lengthened examination of witnesses during two days, we are informed by eye witnesses that the guilt of the men was, if anything, made more apparent.\n\nThe Governor has, however, in deference to popular clamor, seen fit to remit the punishment of death.\n\nBoth in the new trial and in the commutation of punishment, Sir John Bowring has acted in an exceedingly improper manner.\n\nHer Majesty has instituted an Order of Valor to be called the \"Victoria Cross,\" which is only to be conferred during acts of signal bravery before the enemy.\n\nAs to the trial, we have said that we have been informed by eye witnesses that the guilt of the men was, if anything, made more apparent.\n\nThe fire on board the Fiery Cross made such speedy work with the coin that Captain Thoms has to regret the loss of the whole of his cabin furniture and clothes.\n\nThe mail to 11th February is very strong as to the peace congress in Paris, and that is the sum of the news--all else is \"leather and prunella.\"\n\nThe Levant, of 382 tons, for Australia, formerly an American (U. S.) vessel but now flying the Hawaiian flag, was seized by orders of Sir James Stirling for a breach of the Chinese Passenger Act.\n\nThe offence committed is that she had not the requisite papers from the Emigration Officer.\n\nIf she had 320 passengers on board, as stated, she also committed a breach in carrying an excess of passengers.\n\nBut, in addition, she has no ship's papers--all of which, or even two of which, may be considered a good ground for proceeding to the utmost extremity of the law--forfeiture of the ship, and fine and imprisonment of the parties engaged.\n\nBut then arises the question--What are the passengers to do?\n\nWe have heard it stated that the charterer, or owner, or whatever character he holds, has received from 30,000 to 35,000 dollars for passage money, while it is asserted that the value of the ship at the outside is not 10,000.\n\nIt is not an agreeable position for the government to find themselves in, having deprived 320 men of their passage of the value of 30,000 say, and to find themselves with only 10,000 towards reinstating the unfortunate wretches in their former position.\n\nIt looks to us as if the \"Chinese Passenger Act\" is bad, or that it is badly administered; perhaps a little of both, but most likely more of the latter.\n\nIn the first place, the supervision of the ship is not compulsory on the part of the Government.\n\nSecondly, it is only to begin on the application of the Captain to the Emigration Officer.\n\nWas it not advisable to have interfered earlier?\n\nWe desire the death of no man, but so long as the statute book affixes death as the punishment of the highest order of crimes, so long ought these crimes to be punished with death.\n\nAnd we know no greater crime than that of armed gang robbery, where the life of the defenders of property is taken.\n\nIn the case of the Levant, the vessel came into harbor on 16th March, was laid on for passengers, and even when seized on the 23rd ultimo, had been given to the Emigration Officer.\n\nPROCLAMATION.\n\nJOHN BOWRING.\n\nGovernor and Commander-in-Chief of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies, and Vice-Admiral of the same.\n\nThe Sentence of Death recorded against Wong-AKUT, convicted of murder at the last Criminal Session of the Supreme Court, is commuted to that of Transportation for Life; the Sentence of Death passed on Chan-Wah-Kong, Tam-Kut-Heng, Lo-Ah, Cha-Anboon, and Luk-AuH, also convicted at the above Sessions of the same crime, is commuted to that of Transportation for Life; and a Free Pardon is granted to Tam-AKUT, similarly convicted on the same occasion.\n\nBy His Excellency's Command\n\nW. T. MERCER,\n\nColonial Secretary.\n\nGOD SAVE THE QUEEN.\n\nGiven at Victoria, Hongkong, this 26th Day of March, 1856.\n\nLately there have been numerous desertions from the ranks of the 59th Regiment, and many more would doubtless have occurred and the means of getting from the island been as direct as they were when we had more whale-ship recruiting here than we have lately had.\n\nIt being suspected that a number of deserters were secreted on board the American whaler Canton Packet, Inspector Jarman with a party of police proceeded on board that vessel on the evening of the 27th, when nine were ferreted out of their hiding places.\n\nAbout three o'clock yesterday morning, it was noticed that the steamer P&O'slun, which has been lying here for the last five months undergoing extensive repairs, was on fire.\n\nTHE PUBLIC SCHOOL.\n\nThe Annual General Meeting of the Subscribers to the new Public School was held in the Agricultural Society's room on the 24th ultimo.\n\nA Statement showing the Progress and Attendance at \"St. Andrew's School,\" during the year 1855-6.\n\nApril ........ 16\n\nMay ........ 30\n\nJune ........ 36\n\nJuly ........ 38\n\nAugust ....... 37\n\nSeptember ..... 35\n\nOctober ...... 33\n\nNovember ..... 32\n\nDecember ..... 30\n\nJanuary ...... 28\n\nFebruary ..... 26\n\nMarch ....... 25\n\nTotal ....... 62\n\nAverage Attendance 16\n\nPresent: Messrs.

Before a coroner's jury held on view of ten of the bodies that had been brought here, the engineer stated that he chanced to be on deck at the time the vessel struck, that he heard the Captain saying \"stop her\" which was immediately done,—that in a minute or so, he heard the Captain again cry \"go on, all right,\" when the engines were put to work, but they had only made three revolutions when the water rushed into the engine room; that having again turned off the steam he was engaged in drawing the fires, but before he was enabled to do so, the water had reached his middle.

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.

The business of the Empire seems to go on as quietly and regularly as ever, but the state of the finances continues to be the absorbing topic at head quarters.

He lives in days which have more significance than years in the career of many of his predecessors and all his acts are momentous.

All the resources of the country have been gathered up and made the most of, and every corner of the Empire within and without has been ransacked to furnish aid in India's great extremity.

The increase of Revenue is derived from two items alone. The first is an increase on the returns of the Excise farms, which sold in April for £12,000 more than the rate of last year. The other item arises from fact that in our accounts for the the present year we will have twelve \n\nin \n\nsea \n\n(15 \n\nregretted, either by the Customs employés, or by the Foreign Mercantile Community of Chies. With regard to the employés in the Customs service, we do not know the reasons for their not regretting Mr. Lay's Gismissal se only know that such in the Chad. The gratulation of the merchants is much more easily understood, Abuut a year age, the Briel Government thought it to publish a Memorandum which had Buxted from Mr. Lay'e pun, and which was not only called for in the siram. atanes, but not at all coneistant with ub. The object which the lake Inspec tor-fieneral had in view in peuning the netid Merooranium was praballs to exhibit certain amount of temper (not good temper) towards the Foreign Me coucle Community for baring on various occasions displayed towards himself a per- \n\naltogether unprovoked, but would have her much better suppressed.

On board stcamer, she was believed to be the Alabama; but it is just possible that she was the U. steaner 'yning which would equally well suit the des- cription. Whether the diabama is still in the neighbourhood of the Java or not, it is pretty certain that she has committed no more destruction tbere, \n\notherwise the crews of the cap- tured vessels would have been sure to turn up at some of the Dutch ports, \n\nAn amelioration of the regulations relating to the Exports of Arms from this Part, contained in the following Dotification, was published five days ago in the Government Gazelle.\" With reference to Notification No. 146, dated 28th October 1863, His Ho- the Governor has been pleas- ed to dispense with the prescribed de elaration in all cases in which Arms in reasonable quantities may be ex- ported from Ports in the Straits Set- thement to Cochin-China, Siam, the States in the Malayan Peninsula, or any of the Islands in the Easters Ar- chipelago.\" This will be esteemed a \n\nFPT \n\nThe germ of this affair has been tho quadron which arrived in Chins some time ago under the command of Lap twin Sherard Oshorne. The course which Captain Osborne should probably have parsed, was to have reported insett, on his arrival in the Yangtexs river, to the Governor General of the Two King, and to have given him delivery of the Fleet. Mr. Lay, however, is reported to have de. manded the direct recognition by Prince Kuug of Capt. Osborne, and to have de clined delivering over the vessels to aby local provincial officer. Tseng Ko-fan, to whom the Chinese Governatont desired the vessels to be given, is a man of great note, and rulos over not less than 20,000,000 of people, beeides possessing most extensive infance in the Chinese Empire. Mr. Lay, of all men, was to have been expected to have avoided the mistake of ignoring this mandarin; and people hore are surprised \n\nto the cause; and, moreover, that, of tha later number, some still lanhl out in the different parts of the city.

        "content_text": "108\n\n16\n\n27. I confess that in making these remarks I cannot refrain from reflection on the case of the two neighbouring Colonies, Manila and Macao. The one a Spanish Colony of great fertility and power of production, the other a Portuguese Settlement, producing nothing. Both have been hundreds of years in the hands of their present holders and each is called on for a contribution to the Treasuries of Spain and Portugal respectively. In Macao the trade once considerable is reduced to nothing, and the place is only the shadow of its former self; of Manila it is notorious that the most is not made and her principal City is as deficient in the ordinary requirements of civilization as if it had been kept two centuries back. On the recent occasion of a disastrous Earthquake a sum (of an amount variously reported, but large) was contributed by the Madrid Government in relief of a Colony which under a different system would have been perfectly independent of such external aid.\n\n28. I do not of course attribute the condition of these two places solely to the contributions exacted by the Mother Countries, but I am not, I think, straining a point in my argument if I maintain that the monies they remitted to Europe would have been beneficially expended on the spot, and would directly on the Colony and indirectly on the Mother Country have reflected more credit than at the present time can be claimed by either.\n\n29. I am aware that there is another Colony in this part of the world similarly circumstanced and apparently contradictory of my view, but the financially prosperous possession of Java is excluded from our present consideration by the forced labour system of the Dutch Government, which would not be recognized under a British constitution.\n\n30. I have instanced the only Colonies in these regions actually bearing on the point, the one productive, the other like Hongkong, non-productive, but in any case it seems to me that the Mother Country would have been amply repaid with the profits and advantages immediate and collateral resulting from her trade with the Colony and with the Countries adjacent, for the promotion of which I assume the original settlement to have been made.\n\n31. I admit that it is the duty of all Colonies to relieve the Mother Country as far as they can, and that this duty is imperative on all producing Colonies; but in the case of a non-producing Colony like Hongkong it should be borne in mind that it did not plant itself and that the Mother Country had—it must be assumed—a self-interest in planting it; the attainment and preservation of which interest should be a sufficient return without a direct pecuniary impost, which can only be levied at the cost of the development of the Colony.\n\n32. But not to occupy more of Your Grace's valuable time I may state my conclusions briefly thus (1) The presence of Troops here is not absolutely necessary for Colonial purposes, while the Colonial Revenue is urgently needed to the last cent for Public Works, some of them largely contributing to the benefit of the Imperial Government (2) Hongkong in many respects renders important service to the Mother Country, service equivalent, without direct money payment, to what may in reason be required of a Colony established as this has been, and circumstanced as it is.\n\n33.\n\nAnd next I propose to put forward practical suggestions in the form of alternative proposals.\n\n2\n\n—As I have shown that the Military are not wanted for local purposes I would propose that they be withdrawn altogether, except a Battery of Artillery for which the Colony might be charged—I propose this in deference to Professional opinion which pronounced during the discussions of the Executive Council in June last that Land Batteries were required in aid of the Naval Force.\n\nI enclose Return of cost of Battery amounting to £6,173.5—say $29,631.60.\n\n—Should the above proposition be considered inadmissible I would suggest that the cost of the Battery be the only part of the Military expenditure that falls on the Colony. 3.—As £20,000 would supply us with an additional European Police Force of between 200 and 300 men, is it not possible to utilize the Military for a local purpose and work them as a Police under the Civil Power? I recommended this on a special occasion seven years ago and with the two-fold consideration of economy to the Colony (for the Colonial allowance would only be small and supplementary to their regular pay) and of benefit to the Soldier, whose pay and comforts would be increased, while healthy employment would be given him, the want of which, as all experience of Hongkong shows, tends to the stagnation of his mental, and ultimately to the destruction of his physical, powers.\n\n4.—If it be determined to levy the full sum of £20,000 per annum, let not the necessary public works be stopped as they otherwise must be, but let a special Military contribution Tax be levied to that amount under authority of a Legislative Enactment. I should of course prefer to see any other method pursued and propose this only as a remote alternative, but I have the less hesitation in doing so under the circumstances in that the residents of Hongkong find the Colony singularly profitable, and\n\n17\n\nare but lightly taxed—the Police and Lighting Rates, with a Water Rate in prospect are the only taxes to which they are subjected.\n\nAt the same time it is proper to point out that the enforcement of this contribution amounts in effect to making the residents in a British Colony pay for the protection of foreign and rival Ports, and of the interests of the numerous nationalities there represented.\n\nThe natural tendency would be to drive people from Hongkong where they are taxed, to Shanghae and other places where they are not, and cannot be, taxed. 5.—Let Hongkong be put under a purely Military Government, as Gibraltar, to which it bears a closer resemblance than to any other British Colony; politically it is of less, but commercially of far greater importance than Gibraltar; but the accidents of the two places have a certain similarity and under a Military regime, Troops would be made locally useful, which now, as already shown, they are not.\n\n6.—But failing one and all of the above propositions I have only to ask, and I beg Your Grace's attention to this very earnestly, that the present claim for a Military contribution be postponed for a period not of one year as now fixed, but of 4 or 5 years by which time the financial condition of the Colony will be more firmly established, its real future will be more accurately ascertained, and its wants, now calling imperatively for all its funds, will be satisfactorily and finally supplied.\n\n34. I have only in concluding to request Your Grace to pardon me for thus venturing to question Your Grace's expressed resolution, but as the period of a year must yet elapse before that resolution be carried into effect, I am confident that the various reflections I now submit will receive all due consideration, and I shall be satisfied that if the Colony be finally called upon for the contribution, it will have had the advantage of being heard, even though by so poor an advocate as myself, on a matter vitally important to its interests.\n\n35. I fully understand that Your Grace's proposition is made in furtherance of a general scheme to be applied more or less to all the Dependencies of Great Britain, but in placing before Your Grace the special circumstances of this Dependency I am encouraged by the words of Lord Palmerston himself who is reported to have said in the House of Commons on the 22nd July 1850 that it was \"a mistake to look at Hongkong in the same light as other Colonies,\" and further by the description given of the Colony in the Colonial Office List, under the authority of which I infer that Hongkong is not to be judged under the rules and conditions prescribed as applicable to Colonies generally.\n\nHis Grace the Duke of Newcastle, K.G.,\n\n&c.,\n\n&c.\n\nI have, &c.

Such is the fact as narrated to us, and we are further informed that the body of the deceased has not yet been found. The incident occurred near an island, and the effects were also felt here, but caused no important damage.\n\nIt is learned that certain benevolent and liberal Chinese are contemplating the erection of a hospital for the benefit of the poorer class of their own nationality in Hong Kong. They have already purchased a large piece of ground upon which to build and have asked the permission of the Surveyor-General to commence work at once. The petitioners are prepared to defray the entire expense at their own cost, and their intention, so far as we presently understand, is to place the establishment under purely native conduct.\n\nThe report of the case of Olyphant and others v. Loo A-hung, for breach of warranty on a sale of sugar, contains the following extraordinary proceedings:\n\nShortly after this case commenced, and while Mr. Whyte was cross-examining the plaintiff's compradore, some reference was made to another Chinaman, also in the plaintiff's employ, and the Chief Justice said, \"Put him in the box.\" The following conversation ensued:\n\n**The Chief Justice**: As the man is a servant of the plaintiff, they should produce him.\n\n**Mr. Pollard**: You cannot produce him like a piece of paper. Let him be subpoenaed in the usual way.\n\n**Chief Justice**: Do you mean, Mr. Pollard, to put them to the trouble and expense of subpoenaing him? Well, if you don't produce him, I will take that into account in my direction to the jury.\n\n**Mr. Pollard**: I will put only those witnesses in the box which I, as counsel for the plaintiff, may see fit. I may make a mistake, but I will not be dictated to or talked down by anyone as to what I am to do.\n\n**Chief Justice**: I am not talking you down, Mr. Pollard. You will do your duty, and I will do mine.\n\n**Mr. Pollard**: That's all right, if we would only stick to it.\n\n**Chief Justice**: Now, Mr. Pollard, you will always have the last word; and I think it is most disrespectful to the Court to use language you are in the habit of using.\n\nThe Chief Justice then left the Bench but returned after an interval of a minute or two.\n\n**Chief Justice**: Do you apologise, Mr. Pollard?\n\n**Mr. Pollard**: For what, my lord?\n\n**Chief Justice**: You know what has passed; you know what...\n\n**Mr. Pollard**: If I have offended in any way, there is no man more willing to admit it and to apologise. Will you hear me?\n\n**Chief Justice**: For an hour, if you like.\n\nMost of the damage caused by a recent earthquake in Java was not in Hong Kong but in other districts, especially Djocjacarta, where several indigo and sugar manufactories sustained injury. The sugar mills are again in operation, while others will be able to commence grinding within a month at the farthest.\n\n### STRAITS SETTLEMENTS.\n\n#### SINGAPORE.\n\nThe London mail of the 27th May arrived out on the 27th June, and London telegrams had been received to the 14th June. During several sittings of the Legislative Council, the chief subject for discussion had been the purchase of a steamer or steamers for the service of a local marine. It was decided that a paddle steamer of about 300 tons, with special adaptations to the service, should be procured from England, together with a Tender and a steam launch for shallow river operations.\n\nIt was decided by the Government to give a subsidy of £100 per month to the British India Steam Navigation Company for the maintenance of the present mail line between Calcutta, British Burmah, and the Straits Ports.\n\nColonel Anson, the Lieutenant-Governor of Penang, had arrived there and relieved Colonel Man of charge. Mr. W. W. Cairns, the Lieutenant-Governor of Malacca, had been sworn in and proceeded to Malacca to relieve Major Barn.\n\nSir William Hackett, Acting Chief Justice, had arrived from Penang and would open the third criminal session of the year on the 9th July. The calendar was not large.\n\n#### PENANG.\n\nDates are to July 1. The Penang Gazette gives the following account of an expedition by H.M.S. Wasp to the Nicobar Islands:\n\nH.M. steamer Wasp left on the 12th June for the Nicobar Islands to investigate the murder of the crew of the brig Futtek Islam of Penang. The return of the Wasp gives a miserable story connected with the Nicobar Islands. To say that a nest of pirates has been discovered is almost too mild a term.\n\nAt Trinkut, the Wasp met two vessels, the Rattlesnake and the Harriet, of Penang, both at anchor and trading with the natives. It is reported that the natives threatened to attack the Rattlesnake on the departure of the man-of-war. The captain of the Rattlesnake stated that he had seen a white (European) woman on the island about eight months ago. It appears that about six years ago, a ship was wrecked on these islands, the captain and crew were murdered, and the wife of the captain and two children were taken on shore. The fate of the poor woman was sad; she was passed about from one to another through the whole tribe. When the poor lady was seen and spoken to by the captain of the Rattlesnake, the natives probably got alarmed, and it is said that they gave her poison, which was not sufficient to kill her outright. The Wasp has brought over three men and one woman as prisoners.\n\nAbout two and a-half years ago, another brig was seized at the Great Nicobars, the captain and crew murdered, and a lady with two children taken on shore, probably treated in the same way as the former one.\n\n### EXPORT OF TEA AND SILK TO GREAT BRITAIN. 1866-67 AND SEASON 1867-68.\n\n| From | Tea-lbs. | Silk Bales |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Shanghai, &c. | 1,138,727 | ... |\n| Foochow | 1,015,000 | ... |\n| Canton | 969,110 | ... |\n| Hankow | 1,255,041 | ... |\n| ... | ... | ... |\n\n### EXCHANGES ON LONDON.\n\n| At | 4 months' sight | Bank |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Yokohama | 4s. 8d. to 4s. 9d. | ... |\n| Shanghai | 4s. 8d. to 4s. 9d. | ... |\n| Canton | 4s. 8d. | ... |\n| Hong Kong | 4s. 6d. to 4s. 7d. | ... |\n\n### COMMERCIAL REPORT.\n\nA considerable improvement has taken place in the market for Grey Cotton Goods, and the Chinese have been buyers to a large extent.

The cost per picul of raw silk is calculated in these tables at 200 to 800 taels, and of waste at 5 to 64 taels.\n\nMuch is said in our papers about the losses involved by the Insurance societies during the last year, so that most of them are not able to pay a dividend, whilst some have lost a good part of their capital. It is of too much interest that I should not reproduce what is said about it in a small local paper, because it is worthy to be known generally that during the last year the \"Javasche Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" lost its reserve fund and 50,000f. of its capital; the \"Bataviasche Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" lost 50,000f. of its capital of 180,000f; the \"Koloniale Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" lost its reserve fund; the \"Tweede Koloniale Zee en Brand Assurantie Maatschappij\" (established last year) lost 61,000f.; and the \"Oosterling\" (established last year) 30,760f. of its capital. The very unsatisfactory result of the companies who are represented here is due to the fact that they accept too great risks and insure too large sums upon the several ships.\n\nWe notice that the \"Teping\" was the first of the tea clippers to pass Anjer. She left Foochow on the 3rd June, and passed Anjer on the 21st. The \"Maitland\" sailed two days after her, and the \"Serica\" passed Anjer on the 27th, four days after the \"Maitland\".\n\n### THE CIVIL SERVICE.-Foreign-office\n\nMr. H. B.

We hope that, in addition to this reduction, we shall have a more frequent communication with America; and I have little doubt that in a short time we shall arrive at what, perhaps, we never could have expected—a daily communication with the United States. By means of this convention, we shall also be able to reduce very considerably the postage to Canada. The letters to Canada passing through the United States will be reduced from one shilling to eightpence. We shall also have an opportunity of facilitating the communication with the new colony of British Columbia. We shall be enabled to send letters there in a much shorter time than by the present route by the Isthmus of Panama, and at a very much reduced cost.\n\nI think your lordships will consider that these arrangements will be satisfactory to the country at large. I must say that the United States Government have acted with the greatest cordiality and with the greatest anxiety to facilitate all these communications. (Hear.) I am anxious to take this opportunity of making some remarks on the subject of our postal arrangements with India and China. After long consideration of the subject, a committee of your lordships' House recommended the Government to give notice for the termination of the existing contracts for the purpose of having fresh tenders and a more frequent communication with India. It was proposed that we should have a weekly mail to Bombay, and that a mail should proceed by railway from Bombay to Calcutta and Madras.\n\nWe have followed out the recommendations of the committee. We have given notice to terminate the existing contracts, and advertised for tenders for future contracts to run mails from Marseilles to Alexandria, and from Alexandria to Bombay, China, and Australia. But a very curious idea has got into the public mind on the subject, and it has been alluded to in the other House of Parliament, and in many of the newspapers—namely, that in following out the recommendations of the committee, we intended to give up the control of the postal communication with India, and to throw it entirely into the hands of foreign Governments. This is most entirely and gratuitously a mistake. Such an idea never entered into my mind, or into that of any other member of the Government; and the only ground for it could be that in giving notice for tenders, we did not put into them that we would not contract with any foreign Government.\n\nFrom that, people have taken the idea that we were to contract with the Messageries Imperiales and give up the control of the communication by our own vessels. In the committee of the House of Commons, it was suggested that we should avail ourselves of the Messageries Imperiales in several cases, and even that we should throw it into their hands if they offered a cheaper service than our own countrymen. That is wrong, but I do not say that we shall not under some circumstances avail ourselves of that company, and at present, we send some letters on their way to China by their boats. But these are only supplementary arrangements associated with the boats under our own control. To throw everything into the hands of any foreign country would be extremely impolitic, even though in the first instance, it might enable us to perform the service cheaper.\n\n**COMMERCIAL**\n\n### COFFEE\n\nThe market remains in a very good position, because there was more demand for consumption. For Malang coffee of the last sale of the Dutch Trading Company, somewhat higher prices were paid; the quality was very inferior. Of private imports, white, yellow, and brown sorts are very scarce.\n\n| Type | Quantity | Price |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Ordinary to good ordinary greenish, some brownish, ex Kandeish | 800 bags | different prices |\n| Good ordinary greenish, ex Kandeish | 800 bags | different prices |\n\nImported were 8,144 piculs Java, ex Triton; 1,034 piculs, per Eva Johanna; and 2,612 piculs, ex Landbouw.\n\n### SUGAR (RAW)\n\nThe 38,924 baskets Java which were sold by the Dutch Trading Company on the 24th ultimo realised full May prices for brown and yellow sorts, and f. to under them for white quality. For the result of the sale, a very good impression was made upon the demand, which has been very firm since. Of private imports, 8,500 baskets were sold before and after the sale, of which 3,500 per Eva Johanna at full July prices to f. higher.\n\n| Quantity | Price |\n| --- | --- |\n| 2,221 baskets Java, ex Triton | 293f. No. 11, damp and very damp |\n\nThe unsold stock of Java at the Dutch Trading Company was on the 1st inst. 28,825 baskets, against 49,854 in 1866.\n\n### Continental Intelligence\n\n#### HOLLAND\n\n(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)\n\nAbout the new Minister of the Colonial Department, a deep silence prevails now in the press, only the \"Arnhemsche Courant\" said that Mr. Hasselman accepted the portfolio with the condition that again an Indian ground-rent Bill should be brought in Parliament, whilst in this Bill should be stipulated that the right of possession should be granted to the natives. The assertion may more or less be true, but I cannot warrant it. The same paper also told that the Minister of the War Department has the intention to augment the militia with 25,000 soldiers, so that the budget of war will be brought from 13 to 20 millions.\n\n#### TEA\n\nThe market is unaltered; the quotation is for China Congou, Sloe., 175c.; and for Java do., 65c. to 75c., according to the quality.\n\n#### RICE\n\nThe market is very firm; of uncleaned, 1,896 b.

Cassia-oil: 44f.\n\n### RUSSIA, GERMANY, &c.\n\n(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.)\n\n#### HAMBURG, Aug. 7\n\nThe endeavours of Mr. August Behn to emancipate the German and other Continental shipowners from the thraldom of the French Bureau Veritas by the establishment of a \"Germanic Lloyd's\"—of which I gave your readers some account a few months ago—have been crowned with the most signal success, and the full concurrence of the shipowners and underwriters in Bremen and Lubeck, in the Baltic ports and in Denmark, Sweden, Price and the company's agents in the East; also a statement of accounts, and Norway.\n\nThe Association has declared itself \"constituted,\" and is in full operation. The central seat is Hamburg, with branches at the principal ports. The following is a list of the directors: August Behn, J. D. H. ELPHINSTONE,? Shipowner, Hamburg, President: F. H. Bitter, Managing Director of the Hamburg Marine Assurance Company of 1866. Vice-President; A. Beel, Managing Director of the Marine Assurance Company of 1859 at Lubeck; F. Harkort, formerly Captain in the Army, Knight of the Iron Cross of Bravery, Hornbrack, near Dortmund; Franz Paetow, Shipowner, Rostock; Fr. Schuler, Shipbuilder, Stettin; and R. Werner, Captain in the Prussian Royal Navy, and Director of the Royal Dockyard at Danzig.\n\nThe report of the Electric and International Telegraph Company, presented on the 7th inst., shows an available balance of £68,995, and recommends a dividend of 5 per cent. for the half-year, or at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum.\n\n### COMMERCIAL\n\nOn the whole, the produce markets have been quiet since last mail, and there is but little to report. Rice firm. Cassia Lignea continues in good demand, at 11 sch. beo. Pepper is more in request, and among the transactions were 1,500 bags of Singapore, at 3 5-16ths sch. bco. The holders of Spelter will not listen to lower offers, and steadily adhere to their demands of 133 marks banco, both for delivery and in loco.\n\n### SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE\n\n#### ARRIVED\n\n* Grossvater, from Java\n\n#### LOADING\n\n* Padel, for Singapore and Penang\n* Isabelita, for Manila\n* Aldebaran and Energie, for Hong Kong\n* Saturnus, for Shanghai\n* Christine, for Nagasaki and Yokohama\n\n### BANK AND MISCELLANEOUS SHARES\n\n| Company | Paid | Price Aug. 9 | Price Aug. 11 |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Agra Bank, A shares | All | 26 to 28 | - |\n| Do.

        "content_text": "## THE LONDON AND CHINA TELEGRAPH\n\n### ARTICLES OF IMPORT\n\n#### TEA\nThe public sale of last week was larger than any that have been held for many months past, and consisted principally of a good selection of Congous and Scented Teas. The prices obtained for Congous were very irregular, owing to the hesitation of buyers; but, on the whole, they showed a decline on those given at the last sale. There is no alteration of importance in the value of Scented Teas, with the exception of the lower grades of Scented Orange Pekoes, which are rather lower, and all descriptions of Green Tea realised full prices. Some dust sold at the sale at 4d. to 6d., but it was offered \"with all faults.\" Some interest was taken in a few parcels of Japan Greens, of Rifleman, which has just arrived, and a few transactions in them have taken place, and the remainder of this cargo will no doubt be readily disposed of, as there is a good demand for all descriptions of Green Teas. The market price of Common Congou is 11d. per lb. Sound Broken Leaf can be bought at 6½d. per lb., and Tea Dust at about 5½d. per lb.\n\n#### SILK\nSince our last report the Silk market has experienced little or no change, no one buying beyond present requirements. The absence of demand, both at home and abroad, has been almost unprecedented, and prices are mostly nominal. The arrival this week of some of the early shipments of the new China crop has created a slight diversion, about 400 bales finding buyers; the opening price of Tsatlee being 26s. to 30s. In Canton Silk there has been some little business doing at rather easier rates, but the assortment is by no means generally desirable. Japan Silk is quite neglected. The total deliveries show a slight improvement, being 407 bales China, and 234 bales Japan. We can as yet discern no general improvement in the Silk market; the first unloading of new Chinas has naturally attracted some attention, and led to some little business, but there is no disposition on the part of the trade to buy more Silk than is absolutely necessary, and speculation seems out of the question. The opening price for classic No. 3 Tsatlee, 29s., is higher than some people expected, but appears moderate as compared with the quotations we have for some time past been accustomed to. There is a wide margin between chop Silk and medium and inferior descriptions, red Peacock having been sold at 26s. 6d., and good No. 4 at 26s. The estimate of export for the season has been reduced by recent telegrams from China to 40,000 bales, and if the reported failure of the second crop prove true, it is possible that even this figure may not be reached. In Japan Silk there is nothing doing, the best descriptions of Mibash are firmly held, but ordinary and inferior qualities are pressed for sale.\n\n| Description | Price |\n| --- | --- |\n| Taatlee, No. 1 & 2 | 26 0 to 30 0 |\n| No. 3 | 24 0 to 27 0 |\n| Tsenfa and Hainio, No. 1 & 2 | 20 0 to 23 0 |\n| No. 3 | 18 0 to 20 0 |\n| Tarsaam, No. 1 & 2 | 18 0 to 23 0 |\n| No. 3 | 14 0 to 20 0 |\n| Long Reel Skeins | ... |\n| Canton | ... |\n| Japan: Tsinchew & Sinchew, No. 1 & 2 | 17 0 to 23 0 |\n| Ida, Bricks, No. 1 & ... | 21 0 to 26 0 |\n| No. 3 | 27 0 to 30 0 |\n| Soudni, No. 1 & 2 | 21 0 to 26 0 |\n| No. 3 | 21 0 to 26 0 |\n\n#### COTTON\nThe market since our last report has remained extremely quiet, the business having been to some extent restricted by the firmness of holders. The only sale of China reported is of 30 bales fair quality at 6¼d. per lb.\n\n#### SUGAR\nThere has been a fair demand from the trade, but speculators having done but little in the article scarcely any alteration in prices has taken place, and quotations of most descriptions are about the same as on the 8th ult. Foreign refined continues to be offered at prices lower than to allow the English refiners to compete with profitable results, but as the prospects of supply from the cane-growing countries indicate an out-turn by no means equal to our requirements, it is not probable that any material fall in values will take place, unless, indeed, the production of beetroot sugar should be on a larger scale than hitherto. The deliveries in all the sugar-consuming countries are progressing most satisfactorily, showing a decided and steady increase. The last sale of the Dutch Trading Company took place on the 24th ult., and comprised 39,000 baskets, Java; grey and yellow realised the rates current at the May sale, but white sold at 1s. decline. The principal transactions on the spot have comprised 14,000 casks West India; 16,000 bags Mauritius; 8,000 bags Bengal; 14,000 bags Madras; 1,500 bags Penang; 33,000 bags Manila; 1,200 casks Cuba and Porto Rico, and 850 bags Guatemala. The imports of sugar into the United Kingdom during the seven months ending 31st July amounted to 341,758 tons, against 322,277; the deliveries for home consumption were 316,846 tons, against 272,761, and for export and coastwise 5,966 tons, against 18,006. The stock on the 1st August was 189,736 tons, against 221,253 at the same date in 1866.\n\n#### SPICES\nAt the quarterly sales on the 29th ultimo, comprising 1,260 tons, bales Ceylon, good and fine qualities were difficult to sell, and only partly realised at moderate prices; medium quality brought full rates, and the inferior sorts an advance of 1d. to 2d. on the April sales, viz., fourths 1s. 3d. to 1s. 9d., thirds 1s. 10d. to 2s. 1d., seconds 2s. to 2s. 6d., firsts 2s. 6d. to 2s. 9d., and superior 2s. 6d. to 3s. 1d. per lb. Mace continues scarce and firm; 2 cases Penang at auction sold at 1s. 10d. to 1s. 11d. per lb. for medium reddish. Nutmegs are 1¼d. to 2d. per lb. dearer, with increased inquiry; good business done privately; 14 cases Penang and 37 cases Batavia sold at auction at 1s. 2d. to 1s. 9d. per lb. for ordinary small to middling medium. Sapanwood: Steady, and tons Siam at auction realised £12 to £12 15s., also one-third of 35 tons Ceylon offered, realised £10 15s. per ton.\n\n#### COFFEE\nThere has been a good demand, and although supplies have been ample, the values of good current descriptions have been maintained. Fine sorts have shown an advancing tendency, but common and low qualities have sold irregularly and at lower rates. The shipments from Ceylon at the last returns were 714,000 cwts., against 723,000 last season, made up of 545,000 cwts. Plantation and 169,000 cwts. Native, against 510,000 and 213,000, and the quantity now afloat for this country is 18,000 tons, against 18,000 last year. The principal transactions on the spot, with the latest prices paid, have comprised 6,000 casks 2,000 bags Plantation Ceylon, low middling to good bold greens 74s. 6d. to 84s. 6d., low middling to good middling blue 74s. 6d. to 82s., bold 85s. 6d., peaberry 91s. to 95s.; 200 casks 2,500 bags Native Ceylon, fine ordinary bold 64s., good ordinary 59s., small 50s., peaberry 65s. 6d. to 65s.; and 8,000 packages East India - Singapore, ordinary 45s. to 48s., Java 68s. The total deliveries of coffee in Holland from the 1st of January to the 31st of July were 484,694 bags, against 358,307 bags in 1866, and the stock at the end of last month was 525,500 bags, against 580,100 bags.\n\n#### CURRANTS\nIn fair demand, and 2,000 packages good Pegu have realised 37s. to 38s. per cwt.\n\n#### CAMPHOR\nChina and Japan descriptions are firm, with fair private business at £6 15s. to £7 per cwt.\n\n#### GUM BENJAMIN\nThe market is steady, and of 56 cases Siam at auction half sold at £24 to £24 15s. per cwt. For fine third quality, and £11 to £11 15s. for dark. Of 42 cases Sumatra three-fourths sold at £8 2s. 6d. to £8 12s. 6d. per cwt. for false packed second quality.\n\n#### GALLS\nThe transactions have comprised 100 cases China at 6¼s., and a small portion Japan at 5¾s. per cwt.\n\n#### MANILA HEMP\nThe market is now firm, with a moderate business at fully the previous rates, 587 bales having been sold at auction at £49 10s. to £50 5s. per ton for fair current quality.\n\n#### PEPPER\nThere has been a fair inquiry for black privately, and nearly 8,000 bags have been sold, Penang at 2¼d. to 2 15/16d., Singapore 3d. to 5/16d., and Tellicherry at 3¼d. At public sale, 840 bags Penang were all taken at 2¼d.; also 164 bags Singapore White at 5d. to 5¼d., and 100 bags privately at 5d. cash.\n\n#### RICE\nA rise in the Corn market, consequent upon the uncertain weather, has been followed by a movement in this article. Owing, however, to the small stock there has been but little in which to operate on the spot, and in consequence the greater part of the transactions have taken place in floating cargoes or parcels. About 18,000 bags have changed hands on the spot at full to rather higher prices, viz., 10s. 9d. to 12s. 3d. for Soft-grain, and 16s. to 16s. 6d. for white Bengal. Of floating cargoes about forty have changed hands, the latest sales being at 11s. to 11s. 3d. for ...\n\n#### TAPIOCA\nAt auction 136 bags Singapore were chiefly sold, good middling and good white 4¼d. to 5d. per lb.; and 165 bags pearl Tapioca fetched 30s. to 31s. per cwt.\n\n### ARTICLES OF EXPORT\n\n#### IRON\nThe quotations in London are for Welsh bars, £5 15s. to £6; nail rods, £7 10s. to £7 15s.; hoops, £8 10s. to £9; sheets, single, £9 15s. to £10; Staffordshire bars, £7 10s. to £7 15s.; rails, £4 5s.\n\n#### COPPER\nSheet and Sheathing, £79 to £83 per ton; yellow metal, 7d. to 7¼d. per lb.\n\n#### TIN\n£91 for block; £92 for common bars. Tin plates, best charcoal I.C., 30s. to 31s.\n\n#### LEAD, &c.\nEnglish pig, W.B., £21; shot, patent, £23; sheet, £20 15s.; spelter, £20 17s. 6d.; zinc, English sheet, £26 to £26 10s.; quicksilver, £6 17s. 6d.\n\nThe following is from the Circular of Messrs. French and Smith :- \nThere has been no activity in the Metal Market the past month, the increasing abundance and cheapness of money having apparently no influence. Almost all transactions reported have been for immediate consumption or shipment. Iron: Scotch and Welsh are quoted a shade easier; Staffordshire is steady, with a good demand for the East; and as some few of the railways are on the market again for Rails, a firmer tone in this branch of the trade may reasonably be expected. Copper is rather lower than at the beginning of July. The mail on 18th ult., brought advices of charters for about 1,400 tons Copper, 850 tons of which were Bars. That on the 29th ult. brought advices of about 1,800 tons Copper, of which 1,200 were Bars. Sales of Bars have been made at £67 10s. Prices now quoted are: Bars, £84 to £85; Wallaroo, £82 to £83; English Tough Cake, £75 to £76; Chili Bars, £68 to £69. Tin: A large business was done in Tin during July, principally for immediate delivery; and the quantity of Straits taken out of warehouse here is very large. The consumption in England continues great, especially for Tin-Plate manufacturers, whose works were never more fully employed. The price for fine Straits in July was between £86 10s. and £87; it is rather weak Banca is at the latter quotation to-day through some pressing sellers. steady in Holland at 53 guilders; English firm, at quotations. Tin Plates are in very good demand, and, notwithstanding the large production, prices are rather stronger. The shipments in July were 140,000 boxes, against 165,000 boxes same month in 1866. By the Board of Trade returns, the exports, January to June, were 36,690 tons, against 34,750 tons in 1866, and 30,410 in 1855. Lead is more inquired for, although there is no improvement in price. Spelter advanced in the middle of July to £21 5s., at which some small business was done, but has gone back to £20 17s. 6d. The stock on 31st July was 3,627 tons, against 6,808 tons in 1866. Quicksilver unchanged.\n\n### EXPORT OF BULLION TO CHINA, &c.\n\nThe following return shows the shipments of bullion from Southampton from the 1st January by the P. and O.

        "content_text": "It is proposed to lay a Cable, 563 miles in length, from Singapore, the terminus of the **British-Indian Extension Telegraph Company**, to Batavia, from whence the Dutch Lines extend to the south-eastern extremity of Java. From this point in Java, the second section, consisting of a Cable 1,163 miles in length, will be laid to Port Darwin in Australia touching at Timor. From Port Darwin to Burketown in Queensland, a distance of 800 miles, a Land Line will be constructed to connect this Company's Cable with the Telegraph system of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, South and Western Australia, and Tasmania. Soundings have been taken along the whole route and are perfectly satisfactory. A Contract has been entered into with the **Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company** on the usual conditions of their Contracts for the manufacture and laying by the latter of the Cables required, and the construction of the Australian Land Line. The Contract includes Stations, Station Fittings and Instruments, and the Contractors are to transfer to the Company the steam ship \"Investigator,\" with her tanks and machinery as a maintenance ship.\n\nThe **Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company** also guarantee interest at the rate of ... per annum upon the paid-up capital of this Company, payable half-yearly until the date fixed for the opening of the entire Line.\n\nThe Contract price is £634,000, of which £120,000 is to be taken in fully paid shares—£20,000 on the shipment of the Cable, and £100,000 to be reserved until the Company's Engineer has certified that the Line has been completed in good working order. Upon this certificate £50,000 will be paid, and the remaining £50,000 will be retained until the Cables have continued in working order for 30 days.\n\nThe Cables and Land Line are to be complete in 1871.\n\nThis Company has acquired the right to purchase for £70,000, within one year after the Line to Burketown is completed, the Telegraph Cable recently laid, and now working between Melbourne and Tasmania and upon which the Tasmanian Government guarantee £4,200 per annum on the terms stated in the Contract with that Government, of which a copy may be seen at this Company's Office. The Land Lines in Java which are proposed to be used for this Company's traffic are in a very efficient state, and negotiations are in progress with the Dutch authorities for landing this Company's Cables at Java, and Timor, and for a tariff for messages passing over the local Dutch Lines. In the improbable event of the Dutch Government not granting the facilities asked for, it is intended to raise such additional Capital as may be requisite for establishing a direct Line to Australia, by Cable from Singapore to Port Darwin. The Contract with the **Telegraph Construction and Maintenance Company** contains the necessary provisions for effecting these alterations of route.\n\nThe Cables for this Company are to be of a similar type to those of the **British-Indian Extension**, and **China Submarine Telegraph Companies**.\n\nThe Traffic arrangements entered into with the **Falmouth Gibraltar and Malta**, the **Anglo-Mediterranean**, the **British-Indian Submarine**, and the **British-Indian Extension Telegraph Companies**, provide that these Companies shall allow the same rebate upon their through rate on all messages forwarded over their Lines and this Company's Cables from or to the Dutch Possessions, Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand, as they have granted to the **China Submarine Telegraph Company**.\n\nThe rate which, on through Messages, will, according to the intended Tariff, belong to this Company, is £2 10s. per Message of twenty words between Australia and England, and £1 1s. between the Dutch Islands and this country.\n\nIt is calculated that twenty Messages each way may be expected daily from Java and the surrounding Dutch Islands, and sixty-five Messages each way, at the outset, from the Australian Colonies.\n\nThe annual revenue of the Line, reckoning each Message at thirty words (this being the average length on the **Anglo-Mediterranean** and other Lines), and assuming 330 working days may be estimated as follows:\n\n| Messages from and to | Number of Messages | Revenue |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Java, &c. | 20 × 330 = 6,600 | £1 1s. × 6,600 = £6,930 |\n| Australasia | 65 × 330 = 21,450 | £2 10s. × 21,450 = £53,625 |\n| Together |  | £60,555 |\n| Deducting £15,000 Reserve Fund, and £45,000 for working expenses and maintenance |  | £60,000 |\n| There remains an Annual Profit of |  | £121,665 (error in original, actual calculation: £60,555 - £60,000 = £555, not £121,665) |\n\nBeing upwards of 18 per cent, upon the Capital, exclusive of Local and Chinese traffic.\n\nThe following is a copy of the Memorandum of Association:\n\n1. The name of the Company is \"**THE BRITISH AUSTRALIAN TELEGRAPH COMPANY LIMITED**\".\n\n2. The registered Office of the Company is to be in England.\n\n3. The objects for which the Company is established are:\nThe contracting for, constructing, acquiring, leasing, maintaining, dealing with, and working lines of Telegraph between the Straits of Malacca, Singapore, or the Malay Peninsula, and the Australian Continent, Tasmania, and New Zealand, and any places or points in or adjacent or near thereto respectively, or forming or intended to form part or parts of any telegraphic route or routes between those places, or any of them, and (as and when authorised by extraordinary meetings of the members) branches from and extensions of any of those lines to such countries or places as the Company think fit; the establishment of Telegraph stations, and, generally, carrying on the business of a Telegraph Company; the applying for, acquiring, selling, leasing, using, and disposing of such lands, Telegraph Lines, vessels, concessions, leases, privileges, licenses, and letters patent, and any shares or interest therein respectively, as may be useful or desirable for the purposes aforesaid, or any of them; the doing of all or any of those matters or things in conjunction with any other Company or person; the registration or constitution of the Company abroad as a Société Anonyme or otherwise; the subscribing for and acquiring shares of, or amalgamating with and sharing in the business or undertakings of any other Telegraph Company or Companies, and the making and carrying into effect of working traffic and other agreements with Governments, Railway, Steamboat, Postal, Telegraph, and other Companies and authorities, and the doing of all such other things as are incidental or conducive to the attainment of the above objects.\n\n4.

Cables with the necessary connexions for connecting the principal places in the adjacent islands with Manila, estimated at a farther length, including land lines and cables, of 470 miles.\n\nCommunication with Europe, England, and America will be established by one of the following routes:\n| Route |\n| --- |\n| 1. Through the lines now in the course of construction by the British Indian Extension Company, the Anglo-Mediterranean, the Falmouth, Gibraltar, and Malta Telegraph Companies. |\n| 2. Through the proposed cable between Singapore and Calcutta, and thence through the Indian and Indo-European Company's lines, or those of the British-Indian, Anglo-Mediterranean, the Falmouth, Gibraltar, and Malta Telegraph Companies. |\n| 3. Through the Great Northern Company's lines, from Hongkong via Possietta. |\n\nCalculations have been made as to the probable results likely to accrue to the shareholders by the operations of this Company, and there is reason to believe that, taking messages between Hongkong and Manila, the messages which will be sent to Manila from the Port of Singapore, by way of Hongkong, and those which will be sent to Manila from Shanghai, Amoy, Foochow, and the various ports of China and Japan, and further calculating the increasing intermediate traffic of Manila with the rest of the Philippines, the results will eventually show, allowing 300 working days in the year, an annual income which will yield large dividends on the capital, after deducting £32,000 per annum for working expenses and £10,000 per annum to form a reserve fund for the repairs of the cables, &c.\n\nThe Spanish Government will aid the objects of the concession with ships of the navy as far as the service will permit.\n\nA tender has been accepted from Mr. W. T. Henley, of North Woolwich, which provides for the manufacture and laying of the cables, and for the erection of the overland wires, within 12 months, at a cost of £229,000. Until the submarine cable has been completely laid, £41,000 yet unpaid, and of this sum £25,000 will remain in the Company's hands until the line has been maintained in good working order for 6 months.\n\nThe contract also provides for the payment of interest, at the rate of 5 per cent, per annum, upon the paid-up capital by the contractor, payable half-yearly until the opening of the line, and the contractor takes £70,000 in fully paid-up shares.\n\nA copy of the Concession published officially in the Madrid Gazette, with the notarial stipulations; and copies of the agreement with the Concessionaires for the purchase of their interest, also of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and of the contract with Mr. W. T. Henley, can be seen at the office of the Company.\n\nApplication for shares, to be made in the accompanying form, should be left at the Company's London bankers.\n\nIn all cases where no allotment is made, the deposit will be returned without deduction of any kind.\n\nThe following contracts have been entered into:\n* 1870, February 14 - Order of Mr. W. T. Henley - accepted by W. T. Mercer, Chairman of the Company, on behalf of the Company.\n* 1870, February 3 - Agreement between Ward Lean and Charles William Graham, and William Thomas Mercer, William Maitland, and Wentworth Sturgeon, Esquires, on behalf of the Company.\n\n## FORM OF APPLICATION\n\nTo the Directors of the Manila and Hongkong Submarine Telegraph Company.\n\nGentlemen - Having paid to your bankers the sum of £----, being a deposit of £1 per share, I request you will allot shares of £10 each in your Company, upon the terms of the Prospectus and Memorandum and Articles of Association; and hereby agree to accept the said shares, or any smaller number which you may allot to me, and to become a member of the Company, and I request you to place my name on the register of Shareholders in respect of the shares which may be allotted to me.\n\n1.

Through the Great Northern Company's lines, from Hongkong via Possietta.\n\nThis Company will thus be enabled to avail itself of the advantage of three competing lines of communication with the United Kingdom, Europe, and America, while it may be added that the through route, by way of Russia to England, will be most immediately completed by means of the section now in course of construction between Kiakhta and Shanghai, two competing lines being about to open communication between Shanghai and Hongkong.\n\nI am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant,\n\nSignature in full,\n\nAddress in full,\n\nDate,\n\n## BANKERS' RECEIPT\n\nThe Manila and Hongkong Submarine Telegraph Company (Limited).

This, we presume, is not more the case as regards Ceylon than other countries. But as it is the Cinnamon Isle, as it was formerly called,—it should be the Coffee Isle now—with which we have at present to deal, a few words on the fallacies which generally prevail till the season closes will not be out of place.\n\nThe coffee crop of the past season was very deficient; like every other growing crop this one depends much on the weather, first at the blossoming and afterwards during the filling of the bean. A very good blossom may blow and set, exciting high hopes of a splendid crop, and yet too much wet immediately after setting may perish it, while too much drought may do the same.\n\nAgain, when the berry is filling, chiefly from June to August, a long drought may prevent the filling, and thereby greatly diminish the crop. A cursory observer, passing through a coffee district during the flowering time, seeing every plantation white with its jessamine blossoms, retires possessed with the impression that there are to be magnificent crops. This idea he hugs and believes because, as he thinks, he has seen the crop on the trees. Sad delusion! It must not only be fairly set, but the bean well filled, before a blossom can ever be reckoned on as safe.\n\nNow both the drawbacks above named—a loss of blossom from unseasonable weather in the spring, and a loss of crop from the failure of the monsoon rains in their season—have fallen to the lot of the Ceylon coffee planter this year, and of course he cannot help crying out.\n\nBut will any one believe him? No. The Colombo merchant first, and the London merchant afterwards, rebut the assertion, and think he is only crying \"wolf\" to suit his own purpose, and to force the market up—and they employ all their influence as a counter lever to press the market down.\n\nNo doubt there is a difficulty in arriving at a certain estimate of the crop of a country like Ceylon, where interests are so divided, dispersed, and detached; where also a considerable quantity of crop is raised by natives, some of whom keep no accounts, while others decline to supply the necessary information.\n\nTHE CASE OF THE \"DOLPHIN\" AT BANGKOK.\n\nTHE Government of the United States and its representatives have generally been so conciliatory and moderate in their intercourse with the nations with which we have relations in the Far East, that it is with no less surprise than regret that we observe the singular deviation from this principle in the case of the Dolphin.\n\nThis vessel, an American schooner, commanded by Captain T. S. ANDREWS, was detained by the Siamese Government in consequence of the non-payment of the firewood-tax, on entering the Patlak Cro-k.\n\nAfter careful perusal of the case, as reported in the Siam Advertiser, we are unable to come to any other conclusion than that the commander of the Dolphin wilfully disregarded the signals of the native tax-collector to stop.\n\nIn his evidence Captain ANDREWS says that he could not have stopped her because of her headway and the strength of the tide—a statement which contrasts strangely with the fact that the Siamese (only five or six in number) boarded her, and did actually stop her, and anchor her there and then.\n\nNo sort of violence seems to have been used on either side. Even Captain ANDREWS, who represents himself as being so very much aggrieved by the \"seizure of his ship, and who went on shore at once, \"intending to go to the United States Consul,\" did not carry out that reasonable intention, but stopped at a rice mill, from which he returned on board his own ship with two gentlemen and a lady!\n\nThus reinforced, Captain ANDREWS—this is his own statement—secured the officer who had boarded his vessel, and then went to his house and asked for his wife, who was, fortunately for her, from home.\n\nThis, as we have mentioned, is Captain ANDREWS's own statement. The charge against him, we should also state, was that he attempted to seize and carry off the officer, his wife, and children.\n\nThat he had recaptured his ship, which was seized for firewood-tax, was another and separate charge.\n\nIt is also matter of dispute whether the United States flag was flying on the schooner at the time she was summoned, and stopped.\n\nIt is however clear that no serious inconvenience was caused to anybody—though it is not explained why the wood-tax was not accounted for—and we are therefore greatly surprised to find that the United States Government should have despatched the corvette Iroquois to Siam for \"an explanation.\"\n\nOf course we all know what this means—and the Siamese Government, under pressure of this very convincing reason for giving way, tried the case, and condemned themselves, or their officials, to pay $100 to Captain ANDREWS who, we may presume, congratulates himself on a small triumph.\n\nSuch, however, we think our readers will agree not exceed 500,000 cwt., while others believed it would at least be 800,000 cwt.\n\nThe highest of these, however, would be still 200,000 cwt. below the average of the past five years, or just 20 per cent. But all were agreed that they would be short.\n\nStill it appears not to have been believed in London—for reports continued to come out to Ceylon, \"Large shipments from Brazil,\" \"Fall in Continental markets,\" \"Reduce limits,\" \"Price down 2s. to 3s.,\" &c., &c.\n\nNow this seems to be a species of short-sighted suicidal policy which always defeats its own end.\n\nThe season is finished now, and no doubt a good many fingers are itching for the profits that could have been made had they gone in boldly and bought at the market figures a few months ago.\n\nSo far back as August last, while the London market was being borne down, we warned buyers that the crop would soon close; and that we doubted then if it would exceed 750,000 cwt.\n\nThe commercial season ended on 30th September, and the total export did not exceed 758,000 cwt.! This is very nearly a quarter of a million hundredweights under the average production.\n\nOther coffee-producing countries were also proportionally short, as the following figures show:—\n\nBrazil deficiency ... 1,000,000 cwt.\n\nJava deficiency ... 800,000 cwt.\n\nCeylon deficiency... 250,000 cwt.\n\nTotal 2,050,000 cwt.\n\nThis is without reckoning India, which was also short. It is also irrespective of the West Indian colonies, which are likely to have suffered from the same influences as those that affected Brazil.\n\nThis is a lamentable deficiency, and the fact is deplorable as regards those who must be the chief sufferers—the growers of the article.\n\nIt is a fact, nevertheless, which must be looked in the face, and should be kept steadily in view by those who contemplate investing either in the produce in question, or in the description of property that yields it.\n\nThe removal of the duty in America, too, ought to advantage the grower and the exporter; for, although the abolition of that duty extends only to coffee imported in American bottoms, still America must have a certain quantity of coffee; and even if she import this quantity all from Brazil, and does not take an ounce of Ceylon coffee from Europe, whatever quantity she so receives, relieves the European market to that extent.\n\nWe understand that the appointment of Mr. ALBERT COATES, a partner in the firm of Messrs. KER and Co., as acting Consul at Manila, during the absence of Mr. Rickett, has been approved by the Foreign-office.\n\nThe Consulate at Saigon is still represented by Mr. HAUSCHILD, a partner in Messrs. W G. HALE and Co., and no appointment for a fixed paid Consul can be made, until the cost has been passed in the next estimates.\n\nAs the non-receipt at Brindisi of letters from England, often causes annoyance to passengers proceeding to the East by the Italian route, we think it well to notify that, although the India and China mail does not leave London until Friday evening, letters intended to catch passengers at Brindisi should be posted for the Wednesday evening mail.\n\n813\n\nIt need hardly be said that the British Colonies have never received any immigrants from Macao, but always obtained them, under proper restrictions, from Hong Kong or the Treaty ports.\n\nThe Macao traffic, although it promised to be one of the best correctives of the evils complained of, had to be abandoned, while the Macao traffic is still vigorously carried on.\n\nThe following fact illustrates the working of the immigration.\n\nOn the 4th of September last the steamship Exmore left British Guiana, with over 600 immigrants (including children) on board, returning to their native country, India or China.\n\nThey carried with them property in cash and jewellery, which, divided among the adults, shows an average of more than £50 sterling per head.\n\nNow these people came to the colony as indentured immigrants, and were employed in agricultural labour.\n\nWhen their first contracts ran out, they either re-engaged or employed themselves in other ways by which they could make money.\n\nAt the end of ten years the Indian coolies became entitled to a free return passage, and they went back, not destitute and miserable, as when they found themselves on board ship bound for the colony, but independent and manly in their bearing, and possessed of an amount of wealth that the English agricultural labourer rarely obtains after a whole lifetime of painful toil.\n\nThe British Consul at Havana writing on the subject says:—\n\nChinese labour has not been altogether a success in Cuba. On some small sugar estates, and among the tobacco-fields, the Chinese coolie does well enough; but he cannot work as hard as the negro, nor indeed as the Indian coolie used to work on Jamaica estates.\n\nMost of the Chinese brought to Cuba are at the lowest and feeblest type of the inferior races, such as swarm about Macao, Batavia, and Singapore, &c., and they are rarely of sinewy frame, nor much physical strength; nor have they the endurance of the Indian coolie.\n\nChinese immigration, as it is carried on here, is so faulty that it can never lead to a successful colonisation of Cuba.\n\nThe mistaken policy of the Government, as exhibited in the treatment of these colonists, must end in their refusal to come here.\n\nThe condition of obligatory and continuous servitude to which they are now subjected, if they desire to remain in Cuba, after the completion of their primitive contract, is tantamount to slavery; and it is contrary to common sense to suppose that free men will voluntarily submit to it.\n\nThe Chinese emigrant, therefore, to be induced to come here, must either do so in a fit of desperation, or he must be imposed upon; and a traffic which is based upon deceit, and which subjects him to life-long drudgery under the worst of systems, can scarcely be designated by any other name than that of Slave Trade.\n\nTHE Japanese Ambassadors with their suite, accompanied by General ALEXANDER, Sir HARRY PARKES, and Mr. ASTON, returned to London on the 9th, too late, however, for the banquet at Guildhall, to which they had been invited.\n\nThey will take their leave of Her MAJESTY next week, and leave for Paris, making a tour through France, and thence proceed to Germany and Russia.\n\nTHE report in China that the steamers of the Messageries Company were likely to call at Naples, on their way to Marseilles is incorrect; the statement that the steamers of this company and of the P. and O. Company would call at Nagasaki is also incorrect.\n\nThe Time-tables for 1873 will shortly be issued.\n\nADMIRAL DUPRE, Governor of Cochin China, who, as stated in our last issue, has left France on his return to Saigon, is the bearer of a letter from M. THIERS to the King of SIAM, in reply to the congratulations of the latter to the President of the Republic.\n\nVISCOUNT BRENIER DE MONTMORAND, formerly Consul-General for France at Shanghai, has been appointed Minister Plenipotentiary to Chili.\n\nTHE COOLIE TRADE.\n\nIt cannot be denied that proper regulations, which will prevent vagrancy, and which will organise labour, are absolutely necessary in Cuba, where there are labourers of distinct races and conditions; but these regulations should all have a decided tendency towards preparing these classes for speedy and complete emancipation.\n\nThe law of 28th June, 1870, does not hasten the freedom of the slaves in this island.\n\nIt virtually postpones emancipation for twenty-two years, and, in the meantime, it closes the door to any feasible arrangement for the introduction of free labourers.\n\nThe Chinese under contract here are, with, perhaps, a very few exceptions, treated pretty much as slaves, and with the compulsory engagements now before them, or the sorry alternative of seeking a home elsewhere, there can be no inducement for them to come here.\n\nIf they are treated in such a manner when everything should be done by the Spanish Government to further free emigration to Cuba, it would appear as if no means were left untried to render such emigration unpalatable and repulsive.\n\nBy the mail just received from the West Indies we have the account of another departure from Demerara of time-expired coolies.\n\nThe Rohilla, of London, was embarking 257 men, 79 women, 31 boys, 23 girls, 16 infants—total 406; Chinese, 21 men, 22 women, 6 boys, 6 girls, 3 infants—total 58; grand total, 464.\n\nThe money deposited by the coolies in the Immigration Office for transmission to Calcutta amounted to £47,642.64.\n\nBesides this there was the usual quantity of personal jewellery, amounting in value to a considerable sum.\n\nSIAM.\n\nTHE Committee of the Diplomatic and Consular Enquiry had before them for examination Mr. HENRY ALABASTER, who served for many years in the Consulate at Bangkok as Interpreter, Vice-Consul, and for a short time as Acting Consul, and in the latter capacity he so displeased the Foreign Office in his conduct towards the Siamese that he is now practically discharged from the service.\n\nThe Secretary of the West India Committee has addressed a letter to The Times, in which he says:—\n\nThe stoppage of Chinese immigration in 1866 requires a word of explanation.\n\nIt occurred, not because the Chinese Government withdrew its permission, or was dissatisfied with the treatment of the immigrants, but because it was induced to impose certain provisions which would have greatly increased the expense of the immigration.\n\nIn his evidence he states that the Staff at Bangkok is unnecessarily large, that a Consul, a Vice-Consul, at from £500 rising to £800, and one Assistant, at £250 rising to £400, would be a sufficient staff without Student Interpreters.\n\nThat a medical officer was not now necessary, although very essential in the early days of the Consulate.\n\nSir CHARLES DILKE, one of the Committee, asked:—\n\n1101\n\nNov. 18, 1872.\n\nTHE LONDON AND CHINA TELEGRAPH.",

Singapore and Penang realised about former rates. Singapore and Penang Buffalo were in full demand, and generally brought full prices; Calcutta and Java were mostly bought in.\n\nHORNS.-Siam Buffalo firm at the last quoted rate, viz., 36s. 6d. to 39s. 6d. per cwt. for 3 lb. to 4 lb.

        "content_text": "## Hispano-Philippine Administration\n\nThere is no need for us to pass in review one by one the several branches, fiscal, judicial, or executive, of the Hispano-Philippine Administration. It is in the main identical with every other Spanish Colonial Administration, historical or existent; and, with them, is based and conducted on the same system by which Spain has first alienated and then lost almost every Colony she once possessed, and by which Cuba is even this day kept in a condition of constant and irremediable revolt. Hence the Philippines have for their part more than once (A.D. 1589, 1623, 1624, 1740, 1762, 1763, 1807, 1815, 1823, 1838, 1872) attempted to follow the track adopted by the last-mentioned Colony, but without success enough to insure the liberation obtained by the former. Why Philippine insurrection, so often set on foot, has never been as yet able to reach the goal, we shall see further on. I return to the administrative system itself. It is based on destination of castes and races, and is ordered to the exclusive profit of the ruling ones, or rather of the officials and the clergy from Spain; while in its working it is marked in every department by injustice, by corruption, by extreme and rapacious selfishness, greater than any I have ever witnessed out of Persia, and by a truly amazing incapacity, practical and theoretical, even for the most ordinary duties of rule. This incapacity is, however, its one redeeming quality; since a system of Colonial Government like the Spanish would, if vigorously and effectively carried out, soon exhaust the land and exterminate the inhabitants altogether. Lastly, it is an Administration capricious in the extreme, because dependent solely on the caprices or exigencies of the ruling favourite or faction at Madrid; wholly independent of the interests or conditions of the Philippines themselves and their inhabitants, none of whom are admitted to any administrative participation, voice, or representation whatever. Hence it is an Administration composed of (I take the number from Spanish data) not less than 3,600 Spanish officials, mostly political adventurers, needy hangers-on of those in office at home, and men of like class, almost all under-salaried, and sent out by the Minister or faction of the day at Madrid to make their fortune as best they may, rule or misrule to their fancy, and, on a change in the fortunes of their patrons, retire unchallenged by investigation or opinion to spend their gains elsewhere, to be succeeded in their turn by a cognate swarm.\n\nYet, with all its faults, the Hispano-Philippine Administration deserves the credit of being in its practical working the cause of less oppression at large, and of less cruelty in special instances, though neither oppression nor cruelty are absolutely wanting, than is, or at any rate was, it would seem, usual in Spanish Colonies. This happy circumstance is, so most think, due partly to the supineness of the Spanish resident officials, whom, fortunately for those they govern, this most relaxing climate speedily deprives of whatever energy they may have brought out with them, and partly to the great and preponderating influence of the clergy.\n\nThat influence is partly for good, partly evil. Various causes, to recapitulate which would be to write the history of the Philippines, have conferred on the Spanish regular clergy—Augustinians, Dominicans, Franciscans, Recollects, Jesuits, &c.—sent out here under the title of \"missionaries,\" a position extremely powerful from the very first in the Philippine Islands; a position which they have during three centuries not only maintained, but fortified and extended. The bulk of the Philippine Malays, indeed all those who accepted the position of Spanish subjects, some 4,000,000 or more, adopted from the first the well-known Spanish formula of Christianity. To it they have, on the whole, steadily adhered, and though now and then one clan or other has made an abortive attempt at reinstalling the old idolatry to the detriment of the new, no Philippine Malay has it appears incurred the guilt, far more heinous in the eyes of Spanish monks, of inventing or following a dogmatic heresy. Hence the Hispano-Philippine hierarchy, absolute master of the minds, and by a natural nor long-deferred sequence of a lion's share in the lands and worldly goods of the natives, from whom they at the present time draw a revenue, and over whom they exercise an influence greater in either case than that of the Government itself. Hence, too, they have from the first, down to our own time, assumed the attitude of protectors to the natives, stood between them and their lay oppressors, and to the best of their ability hindered others from sharing the fleeces which they regard as by divine right their own.\n\nClerical rule, though moderately rapacious, is generally, except where heretics are concerned, mild enough, and though averse from progress, fosters an easy-going, half-vegetative existence and increase. The clerical rule of the Philippines is in these respects like all the rest. But, I regret to say, to this very clerical predominance is also due, it would seem, a lower degree, or, in fact, a more total absence of education, manliness, morality, and self-respect throughout the born Malays and Mestizos of the Philippines than I remember to have observed in any other Pagan or Christian land.\n\n### \n\n## From these considerations...\n\nFrom these considerations it would appear that, so far as the Administration is concerned, the prospects of the Philippines, for what regards their productive, industrial, and hence commercial value, are not very brilliant. If absolutely abandoned by the Spanish officials and Spanish clergy, they would, not perhaps rapidly, yet surely, become in a few generations next to valueless to the world at large, and even to Spain herself. But such an abandonment is, under the present conditions of national, and especially European, intercourse, impossible. With Java and Singapore to their west, Hong Kong, China, and Japan to their north, and Australasia to their south, the centrally-placed Philippines cannot but participate, imperfectly though it may be, in the immense activity that surrounds them; were they better administered, they would yield in importance to no region on the world's colonial list. Of this greater good fortune there is, indeed, no apparent probability. But, as their wonderful productiveness, to which nature seems scarcely to have fixed a limit, must from the necessity of things depend in great measure, not merely on the conditions within, but on the demand without them; and as that demand, based on other fortunes than those of Spain, and over which she has no control, will in all likelihood progressively increase for years to come, we may reasonably anticipate that, under the action of this external stimulus, the Philippines will, despite of their internal paralysis, not merely maintain their present grade of importance in the commercial world, but even to some extent rise above it.\n\nOn this side, accordingly, British interests—trading, commercial, and perhaps industrial, in the Philippines—have a fairly sufficient external, though not an equally satisfactory internal, guarantee. And this brings us to the second leading consideration.\n\n### Attitude of the Hispano-Philippine Administration towards Foreigners\n\nWe have now to determine the degree of direct or indirect support and encouragement, or their reverse, that British trade and traders actually receive, or may reasonably in the future expect, from the Hispano-Philippine Administration.\n\nAnd first: The general feeling of Spaniards, and more especially of Spanish officials out here, towards European foreigners at large, is (I regret to state it) one of distrust and scarce-disguised dislike. Ignorant as they mostly are of the very first principles of political and commercial economy, the Spaniards of the Philippines regard every penny made within their territory by the foreign trader as somehow taken out of their own pockets; the contact of foreign prosperity irritates them by its contrast with their own decadence; and being, as a rule, wanting themselves in industry, practical knowledge, and skill, they look with envy not far removed from hate on those who possess these advantageous qualities. It is a general, and, I believe, a correct opinion, that were the Administration free to do as it liked, the old exclusive policy of past times would be revived vigorous as ever; no foreign flag would be allowed to approach, no foreign subject to plant a foot in these islands, unless it were, perhaps, a limited number of Chinese under coolie-contract, to be treated as Chinese coolies have been in Cuba or in Hispaniolized Peru. In a word, the Spaniards would rather see the Philippines ruined by and for themselves alone, than prosperous, if to the benefit not of themselves alone, but of others also.\n\nFortunately, circumstances are stronger than men; and though a Royal Spanish Ordinance, issued not further back than 1844, prohibited the admission of foreigners into the interior of the Colony under any pretext whatever, while an attempt was made by the Hispano-Philippine Government as late as 1857 to renew the Decrees by which for more than two centuries foreign ships had been kept at a distance from these shores, the Administration has been slowly, but progressively, compelled on a tract opposite to its own desires. The yielding began in 1789, when the first half-concession in favour of foreign enterprise was wrung from the weakened grasp of Spain; and from that date down to the present time the Administration has had to witness, though not without many efforts to stay it, an ever-increasing influx of foreign trade and enterprise—an influx which it still persistently endeavours, though indirectly, to limit, but cannot wholly stem.\n\nThe attempt at limitation takes many different forms, and is half-veiled, wholly urged, by many ingenious devices, but chiefly by seven.\n\nFirstly, by checking the natural productiveness of the islands themselves, and consequently the wealth of their inhabitants, by the method implied in the first section of this Report, for detail in this matter would be endless. And this, as it appears, is mainly done, not merely negatively and through careless negligence, but positively, on system, and with a definite intent, in accordance with two Spanish axioms—firstly, that a native, if wealthy, or on the way to become so, will lean towards foreigners rather than Spaniards; secondly, that a native who has acquired wealth will soon aim at independence also.\n\nPage 265",

        "content_text": "did not expect from such rude blustering barbarians the decorum and sweet reason. ableness of the celestial family. Again and again in Chinese proclamations, addressed to the Co-Hong, for the information of foreign merchants, is the principle laid down, with brutal frankness, that barbarians should be ruled by mis-rule. We knew little about the Chinese in those days and they knew even less about us. And there is no doubt that the treatment was due to official ignorance of the outside world. Their training, their position as inheritors of an old and unbroken civilisation infinitely superior to the semi-savage states around them, made them the exclusive, self-conceited, and arrogant men they were, and believing as they did, and knowing how essential it was to their own personal advancement to keep matters among the barbarians smooth and quiet, it is not surprising to find them acting as they did. All the same, however, it was very unsatisfactory for the Canton merchants to find their persons and their property at the mercy of every whim and caprice of a Mandarin. Nous avons changé tout cela!\n\nThere was the name but in reality no freedom of trade. It was true that the monopoly of the East India Company—whose title, by the way, of \"Honourable Company\" is quietly adopted now-a-days by nearly every merchant who adds Co. to his firm name—had ceased three years before, but the merchants were still limited in their dealings to the thirteen merchants, a long suffering race of honourable men, on the whole, who in addition to being freely bled by the provincial authorities whenever money was wanted, were the only means of communication that foreigners had with the provincial authorities. The whole of the trade was confined to Canton; the Spaniards had a right of trade with Amoy, but it was seldom used.\n\nOn the 21st of June, 1837, the latest home date was London, Feb. 3rd. The whole amount of shipping, outward and inward, for the week ending the 20th of June, consisted of 10 vessels—3 from India via Singapore, and 2 from Java ports; 1 for the United Kingdom, 2 for Manila, and 2 for India. Letters were sent home by private ship or by the intrepid Wagner's overland route. Communication with the outside world was kept up by passage boats to Macao and Lintao. These only held eight or ten passengers, and were very uncomfortable. Messrs. Jardine, Matheson endeavoured to run a steamer, but as it was fired at when passing the Bogue forts, its time had not yet come.\n\nThere were few banking facilities in those days. Merchants paid in specie, which they kept in their own strong rooms, and obtained advances on produce from the East India Company, who were not above a little pawnbroking. The opium dispute, not to be settled till June in this year, kept the community lively. But what made all this life endurable was the immense value of the trade itself, as then estimated. It was in the hands of comparatively few. The British residents were about forty-five, many of whom doubtless were mercantile assistants, and they controlled among them the British trade, amounting to $6 millions of dollars per annum. Doubtless this is great, but it is only when we compare it with the trade of Hongkong with its outturn of forty millions sterling, and add to this the trade of the ports from Pakhoi to Newchwang and the riverine ports from Shanghai to Ichang, that we can realize the advance made in commercial matters alone during the half century.\n\nNor, do we think, will our rivals for this trade deny us the meed of praise, that it is to the persistent energy, aye, and to the blood of Britons, that this New World for commerce and enterprise has been thrown open to all the nations of the West.\n\n# THE CELEBRATION OF HER MAJESTY'S JUBILEE IN HONGKONG.\n\nThough later than other colonies in celebrating the Jubilee of the Queen-Empress Victoria, it must be admitted that in no part of Her Majesty's vast and widely scattered dominions has the event been more royally and demonstratively kept than in this the most eastern of her dependencies, and it will be worthily commemorated by the erection of a fine statue of the sovereign who for half a century has swayed the sceptre so beneficently and so well.\n\nA gigantic programme had been arranged for Wednesday and Thursday, the 9th and 10th November, and for its complete success fine weather and a still air were necessary. The colony was fortunate in this respect; each day dawned clear, bright, and unclouded, a brilliant sun lighting with its garish beams the manifold decorations, the oriental pomp and gorgeous magnificence of the Chinese procession, and imparting life and colour to the gay and varied scenes on which it shone; while the clear bright night on Wednesday was so still, yet cool, that the million lights which flashed from tower, roof, and front, or blazed luridly from the hill tops, or sparkled on the glassy surface of the harbour scarce flickered under the zephyrs that idly played across them. All circumstances favoured the occasion, and the projected splendour of the jubilation was amply realised.\n\nAll classes of the community—usually so intently absorbed in business—gave themselves up to pleasure and display, and the good city of Victoria resounded with the beat of drum and crash of cymbal, or thunder of cannon, or hiss and bang of fireworks throughout its waking hours with scarcely a cessation during the two days' round of rejoicing.\n\nThe Jubilee of the Queen-Empress will undoubtedly remain a red-letter day, especially among its younger population, who have certainly never imagined anything like it before, while many of the children of larger growth can truly say that some of its features are unequalled in all their experience.\n\nThe picturesque and beautiful situation of Victoria, with its long and curving sea frontage and its noble background of steeply towering hills, lends itself peculiarly to well-planned decoration and it is only fair to the executive of the Jubilee Committee to say that they made the most of the opportunities afforded them, with the result that soon after darkness fell upon the land on Wednesday evening a new world of glowing beauty and fairy-like loveliness sprang into existence, and afforded such a sight as never before had been seen on these shores, and will not soon be witnessed again.\n\nBut underlying all the beauty and magnificence of their material aspect one feature, reposing in sentiment, renders the events of the past two days of special significance, namely the universality of the demonstration. It was indeed the Jubilee of Britain's Queen, but in the rejoicing upon the suspicions occasion all united; the people of every clime and every race joined hands in doing honour to the Sovereign under whose protection they live and prosper.\n\nThe people were abroad in the streets early on Wednesday full of intense expectancy, and in the Chinese quarters preparations for their huge procession commenced with dawn.\n\nPage 528",

        "content_text": "# China and Hong Kong Industries\n\nChina would happen to similar industries now established in Hong Kong, their production being driven out on the advent of the gold standard by the cheaper priced article made in China. The Industries of Hong Kong are now an important factor in the commerce of the Colony and it would in my opinion be a grave error to risk hurting them by handicapping them in this way with any difference of exchange between China and this place. The Coal trade between Japan and China and the Sugar trade between Java and China are both suffering from the difference in exchange caused by the gold standard adopted by Japan and Java.\n\nIt is, therefore, evident that a gold standard cripples the industries and exports of the country adopting it when dealing with silver countries.\n\n## Counterarguments to Mr. Wilcox\n\nMr. Wilcox speaks from the point of view of the owner of landed property. His statement that a house let in 1878 for $50 per month does now let for $150 is, I am bound to say, hardly in accordance with facts. I know houses, one of which I occupied 10 years ago, then let at $35 per month which now fetch $125. Houses on the Macdonnell Road have risen in the last four years from $65 to $150 (in one case $170) per month, and it would be interesting to know what the rise in rents of the houses in Belilios Terrace, for which Mr. Wilcox is agent, has been since they were built.\n\n## Mortgages and Banking\n\nThe loss on mortgages, to which Mr. Wilcox refers can only apply to money brought from home; there is no loss to a local Company, whose capital is in silver, as it lends in silver and receives back in silver. The Hongkong Land Company and other similar institutions do a thriving business in mortgages in spite of what Mr. Wilcox says, although all their Capital is in silver. The Capital of the Hong Kong Bank is in silver, but nevertheless it has been a very successful Bank. The nominal capital measured in gold may have shrunk, but the actual assets of those Companies when measured in gold are still in excess of the original capital stated in gold. For instance, the original or nominal Capital of the Hong Kong & Shanghai Bank was $10,000,000, which at 4s/-",

        "content_text": "19\n\nthe duration of which is to be 30 years.\n\nThe construction is to be under the direction of a Chinese Managing Director with whom are to be associated a British Engineer-in-Chief and a British Chief Accountant. The agreement provides that a further one for the joint working of the British and Chinese sections of the railway should be arranged between the Viceroy of Canton and the Governor of Hongkong. Negotiations for this further agreement were not started before the end of the year,\n\nThe Final Loan Agreement for the Canton-Kowloon Railway also lays down that \"it is understood that the Chinese Government will not build another line competing with this railway to its detriment.\" In this connection it may be mentioned that a proposal of the Chinese authorities to build a line towards Amoy which for some 40 miles must have followed approximately the same course as the Canton-Kowloon Railway called forth considerable opposition from Hongkong where it was held that the construction of such a line was contrary to the preliminary agreement of March 1899.\n\nWhile the survey work on the British section of the Canton-Kowloon Railway was being completed in the early part of the year construction was proceeding on the line between Tai Po and Lo Fu ferry under the Public Works Department and by the end of April about 24 miles of bank had been formed not including, however, any bridge or heavy earthwork. On the 23rd March Mr. W. G. Eves who had been appointed by the Consulting Engineers—Sir JOHN WOLFE BARRY & Co.,—to be Chief Resident Engineer, arrived in the Colony and took charge of the work being assisted by an engineering staff of one executive and four assistant engineers who arrived subsequently. During the Summer sickness among staff and workmen and some difficulties with labour delayed the progress of the work which consisted at first in preparing for the piercing of the tunnel through the Kowloon Hills. By the end of the year quarters for staff and labourers and work-shops were completed on the South but were still under construction on the North side of the tunnel. A store yard, with arrangements for landing plant and material, had been formed at Tai Kok Tsui and connected by about 3,000 yards of temporary metre gauge railway with the South face while a service road some 1,500 yards long formed with part of the existing Public Works Department road a communication to the North face from a temporary landing place at Lok Lo Ha in Tide Cove. As regards permanent work, by the end of the year a heading had been started from the open at either end of the tunnel but in neither case had advanced more than a few feet inside what will be the ultimate tunnel face. A shaft 90 feet deep had been sunk 330 feet inside this face at the South end and headings commenced in both directions from it. Another shaft to be 268 feet deep, 5,100 feet from the first, and 1,350 feet inside the North face, had been decided on but not yet started. At the end of the year work was also proceeding on 4 bridges South of the tunnel and on 2 North of it in the Shatin Valley. A considerable portion of the earthwork for about a mile on either side of the tunnel and about that between Tai Po and the Lo Fu ferry had been completed. The reclamation for the station site in Hung Hom Bay had been put in hand. The total expenditure that had actually been incurred by the 31st December was $599,546.\n\nTurning to the minor incidents of the year and reverting to commercial matters it may be mentioned that with a view to making Hongkong products better known in England and also to assisting the general trade of the Colony, collections of specimens of its manufactures and also of the various articles which are included in its export trade, have been sent to England to constitute a permanent exhibition in the Imperial Institute buildings at South Kensington.\n\n23\n\nIn the Colony itself two exhibitions were held which it is hoped will be repeated annually. On the 1st and 2nd February the new Horticultural Society, revived on the lines of the old Society which organised annual flower shows from 1873 to 1883, successfully held its first show in the Botanical Gardens. On the 1st, 2nd and 3rd November an \"Arts and Crafts exhibition collected in the City Hall some good specimens of local photography, needlework, book printing and binding, and domestic furniture and some fine pieces of pottery and other works of art lent by European and Chinese Residents.\n\nAn interesting event in the early part of the year was the visit of the mission with H.R.H. Prince ARTHUR of CONNAUGHT at its head, which was conveying the Garter to H. I. M. the Emperor of Japan. The mission was in Hongkong from the 9th to the 13th February. In March advantage was taken of the presence of a Japanese squadron to return some of the hospitality that had been shown in the previous Summer to the British fleet in Japanese waters, and of the visit of the French squadron of the Far East to bear witness to the cordial understanding between England and France. In September a Joint Naval and Military Committee under the presidency of Sir JOHN OWEN, K.C.B., visited the Colony for the consideration of certain matters connected with its defence.\n\nChanges during the year in personnel outside the Colony but closely affecting it were the substitution of CHOU Fu formerly Acting Governor-General Liang Kuang for Ts'en CH'UN-HSÜAN as Governor General Liang Kuang, and the appointments in May of Sir JOHN N. JORDAN, K.C.M.G., to replace Sir ERNEST SATOW, G.C.M.G., as Minister at Peking, and in April of Mr. R. W. MANSFIELD, C.M.G., to replace Mr. J. SCOTT as Consul-General at Canton. During the year the British Naval and Military Commanders were both changed. Vice-Admiral Sir ARTHUR W. MOORE, K.C.B., K.C.V.O., C.M.G., succeeding Admiral Sir GERARD H. U. NOEL, K.C.B., K.C.M.G., as Commander-in-Chief of the China Station in March and Major-General R. G. BROADWOOD, C.B., following Major-General V. HATTON, C.B., in command of the Troops in South China in December.\n\nReference has already been made to the lamented deaths of Bishop HOUAR and Capt. BARNES-LAWRENCE. The latter has been succeeded as Harbour Master by Commander B.R.H. TAYLOR, R.N. On the 31st October, Sir HENRY S. BERKELEY, Kt., K.C., retired from the office of Attorney General, Mr. W. REES DAVIES, who did not arrive in the Colony before the end of the year, being appointed to succeed him. In the Legislative Council Mr. E. A. HEWETT on the 30th April succeeded Mr. R. SHEWAN as elected representative of the Chamber of Commerce and on the 1st June, Mr. W. J. GRESSON of Messrs. Jardine, Matheson & Co. took the place of Mr. C. W. DICKSON of the same firm as a nominated member. Mr. E. OSBORNE temporarily relieved Mr. G. STEWART in a similar position when the latter went on leave early in the year.\n\nOn the 15th December, Mr. F. H. MAY, C.M.G., who had arrived from England a week previously took over the administration of the Colony on my having to proceed on short leave to Java for the recovery of health. Mr. SERCOMBE SMITH who had been acting as Colonial Secretary during the whole period of Mr. May's absence from the Colony served in the same capacity on the latter assuming the charge of the Government.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nMy Lord,\n\nYour Lordship's most obedient, humble Servant,\n\nM.

After the defalcations of Ip Wai Lam, in the spring of 1903, careful instructions were issued to the shroffs, to the Police, and so far as possible, to the public, that proper receipts on the authorised form were the only ones that could and must be accepted for moneys paid into the Government account, and these instructions were duly carried out, though on April 4th, when a sum of $273.23, being Crown rent collected by Sergeant Gerrard on the outskirts of the Territory by the seizure of crops and other goods, was sent in to Taipo during my absence, it was received by the shroff Ng Fung Fu, and a temporary receipt was given pending my return; but when I was back at Taipo the shroff made no mention of the receipt of this sum.\n\n8. With reference to my failure to enquire into the circumstances of the shroff's absence without leave, I took stock of the moneys and accounts at Taipo on Saturday, April 20th, and next morning took all the moneys in hand and paid it into the bank at Hongkong: on the following week when he did not return, in the absence of telephone communication I sent to enquire on the Tuesday, and could hear nothing of him except for a report which turned out to be incorrect that he had gone into Hospital. On Wednesday I found out that he had left the Colony.\n\n9. The Collector's accounts were rendered incorrectly owing to the collection of moneys which were actually due, but were not entered as such in the Rent Roll; I suppose that such moneys should have been entered in a separate account, but I followed the previous practice at Taipo, and no instructions had been issued to the contrary on this point.\n\n10. The system of collecting and accounting for the various items of revenue at Taipo was carried on by me as I found it, and these were checked by me whenever a sum of money was...",

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": "## Representative Heads of British Churches and Missions in Hong Kong to Governor Sir M. Nathan\n\n\" \nSir, \n\nHong Kong, July 1906. At a time when the House of Commons has just passed a Resolution \"that this House reaffirms its conviction that the Indo-Chinese opium trade is morally indefensible, and requests His Majesty's Government to take such steps as may be necessary for bringing it to a speedy close,\" it seems to us that it will not be inopportune to present a humble address to your Excellency and the Government of this Colony with reference to the system on which the traffic in opium is conducted in Hong Kong. \n\nBut before we do this we would venture to call your Excellency's attention to the striking consensus of opinion which appears to prevail now in various parts of the world with regard to the use of opium. In China more than one of the high officials of the Empire have declared against its use, and have issued, or are about to issue, Regulations to check it within their own jurisdictions; and the Viceroy of Nanking has undertaken to present to the Imperial Government a Petition against the trade in opium, which is now in course of signature by the missionaries at work in China. \n\nThe Government of Japan absolutely prohibits its use by its own people, and has passed stringent laws in order to eradicate its use from amongst the Chinese resident within its dominions. The Government of the Philippines, after an exhaustive inquiry into the subject conducted by a Commission specially appointed for the purpose, has decided to adopt measures with regard to the use of opium in the Philippines almost identical with those of Japan. \n\nTo pass on to our own Colonies; in Australia the Commonwealth Government, acting on the initiative taken by the Chinese community, has issued a Proclamation prohibiting the importation of opium into Australia, except for medicinal use, from the 1st January, 1906. The Transvaal has passed a yet more stringent measure of prohibition. In short, on all sides there is evidence of a sincere desire to prohibit or to limit so far as possible the traffic in and use of opium. \n\nYour petitioners are earnestly desirous that the relationship of the Hong Kong Government to the traffic should be amended, for, in our opinion, the present system of farming which is in operation in this Colony tends directly to encourage the use of opium, and for this encouragement the Government is responsible. The Government is interested in getting as much revenue as possible, and by calling for tenders stimulates competition on the part of those who bid for the right of farming to increase their bids for that right as much as possible. The opium farmer must get his money back, and therefore he uses every means in his power to encourage the use of opium. He pushes his business to the utmost extent. The Philippine Commission, in summing up the conclusions which it had formed, strongly condemns the system of farming, for the following reasons :- \n\n| Reason | Description |\n| --- | --- |\n| (a) | The farmer endeavours to increase his profits by extending his business, and so the use of opium is increased. |\n| (b) | Extensive smuggling also exists under this system, as found in those countries visited by the Committee. |\n| (c) | The matter of raising a revenue by such a system exposes the Government to misapprehension and detraction. |\n| (d) | It is hardly moral to delegate to an individual, not a representative of the people, such authority in the way of supervising, detecting, and policing, as the farmer usually exercises. To exercise such authority is a function of the Government only (Report of Philippine Commission, p. 46). |\n\nAgain, in discussing the conditions of the traffic in Java, where farming had been tried and abandoned, as was also the case in Saigon, the Committee writes :-- \n\n\"The old system of farming out the sale of opium, in fact, not only was counter-active in practice, as far as the gradual reduction of the consumption of that drug was concerned, but it was also a source of corruption and bribery of Government employés on the part of the Chinese farmers, who were tempted to extend the sale of the drug to persons who were unauthorized to buy it. It was also the cause of frequent disturbances in cases where it was employed by unprincipled persons as a means of revenge. These persons would surreptitiously place opium in the houses of private persons, and then maliciously and falsely accuse them of possessing opium clandestinely. The principal reason for the abandonment of this system was that the farmer, in order to push his business, exhausted all available means to extend the sale of his merchandise (ibid., p. 38). \n\nThe experience in Hong Kong has not been very dissimilar to that in Java. Your petitioners are not prepared to make a recommendation to the Government with regard to what alternative system of dealing with the use of opium, whether by high tariff, or high licence, or prohibition, or Government monopoly (which last is recommended by the Philippine Commission), it would be best to adopt in Hong Kong. To do so would be beyond our province. What we do most earnestly desire is this: that our Government should be clean-handed in this matter, and should use its great influence and authority to check rather than to encourage the use of this injurious drug. With this end in view we would conclude with two definite petitions to your Excellency: \n\n1. That your Excellency will cause careful inquiry to be made by Commission or otherwise, as to what may be the best method by which the Government may check, and, if possible, in time entirely abolish, the use of opium, except for medicinal purposes, in this Colony. \n2. That your Excellency will give instructions that the pupils in the public schools of this Colony shall be taught the evil and debasing results of the opium habit, and that the primers of hygiene used as text-books in the said schools shall include the necessary information on this matter. \n\nWith regard to this matter of education, we would beg leave to add a quotation from the evidence of a Japanese pastor, resident in Formosa, which is supported by the evidence of many others:- \n\n\"There is no one factor that more strongly influences the young generation against the opium vice than the instruction given them in the public schools regarding the poisonous and pernicious effects produced by the drug. The Chinese youth are slowly learning the Japanese language, and with it are acquiring Japanese ideas and ideals, among which the idea most deeply inculcated is the perniciousness and disgrace of the opium vice, for which they are taught to have an abhorrence (ibid., p. 63). \n\nAt the same time, however, we would point out, and we doubt not that your Excellency will agree with us, that, so long as the Government encourages rather than checks the opium vice, instruction in the schools will be of little avail. \n\nTherefore your petitioners would humbly pray, &c. \n\nWe have, &c. \n(Signed) \n**J.

Four shallow-draught gun-boats, eight Chinese gun-boats, and ninety small patrol-boats ('red boats') are to be purchased.\n\n\"Railway for Ili.—The Military Governor has reported in favour of constructing three lines: one from Ti-hua Fu to Ili, one from Ti-hua Fu to Urga, and the third from Ti-hua Fu to Lanchou. He proposes that the gold mines in Ili should be developed with a view to raising capital for the construction of these railways, and that a loan should be made by the Board of Revenue.\"\n\n'Railways in Manchuria.—The Tsi-tsi-har—Hei-lung-chiang Railway is to be commenced next spring, and the Chinese Eastern Railway branch line from Tsi-tsi-har to Old Tsi-tsi-har this summer.\n\n\"Kirin-Ch'ang Ch'un Railway. The survey of this line has been completed, and the estimated cost of construction is 5,500,000 to 5,600,000 dollars. Work will be commenced on the conclusion of the Loan Agreement with Japan.\"\n\nProposed Admiral for Hupei.—The Grand Council contemplate the appointment of an officer as Admiral of Hupei, to be stationed at Hankow and co-operate with the Admiral of the Yang-tsze.\n\n**\n\nProposed new Naval Harbour.—The Viceroy of Canton has forwarded to the Army Board a Report on the harbour of Hsia Yung in Kwangtung, with regard to its suitability as a naval harbour. The question is to be referred to Admiral Sa.\n\nYang Shih Ch'i's Mission.—In a Memorial to the Throne Yang Shih Ch'i gives brief account of his mission to inquire into the condition of Chinese settlers in the Philippines, Siam, Singapore, Java, Annam, and other countries. He describes the climate and productions of the various places visited, and states the number of Chinese settlers in each. He praises the Administration of Singapore and Penang, where the Chinese have attained much wealth and influence, but states that in Java the Chinese, especially those employed in the mines, are badly treated. Everywhere he went he was well received, and found that the Chinese settlers still retained a strong feeling of affection for their native country. He addressed meetings of Chinese merchants in various places, and visited schools and other institutions, to some of which he gave scrolls presented by the Empress Dowager.\n\n\"Steam Navigation on the Upper Yang-tsze.\" (See Sir J. Jordan's despatch No. 157, of the 1st April) In a Memorial the Acting Viceroy of Szechuan reports that he proposes to establish a Company with a capital of 200,000 taels, to run steam-ships on the Upper Yang-tsze between Ichang and Chungking, and later to Suifu and Kiating, one-third of the capital to be subscribed by the Government and two-thirds by the public. An officer sent to investigate the matter has reported that by blowing up some of the obstructions in the river and using windlasses at some of the more dangerous rapids, navigation by steam vessels would be quite feasible. Three small steamers are to be purchased abroad, and the service will afterwards be extended.\n\n46\n\nFires in Peking.—It is reported that Na Tung has given special orders to the police with reference to the fires which have been very numerous recently. He states that, although the frequency of these fires is chiefly to be attributed to the exceptional dryness of the atmosphere, there is reason to suspect that some have been the work of incendiaries who wished to take advantage of the fires to commit thefts. He directs the police to exert themselves to bring all such criminals to justice.\n\n\"The Ching Hua Shih Pao reports that there was a fire at the Wai-wu Pu on the 4th, but that it was promptly extinguished.\"\n\nThe Ching Hua Shih Pao also reports that there are at present a large number of revolutionaries in Peking who have come here from Japan. The Board of the Interior are reported to have given orders for the arrest of fifty-five of these persons.\n\n\"Naval Harbour in Hainan.—The Viceroy at Canton has reported in favour of making a naval harbour at Yu Lin, in Hainan, and states that the water supply and climate are good. He recommends the construction of a railway for the purpose of transporting troops and supplies there when necessary.\n\nChengting-Te Chou Railway.—The Government have decided to proceed with the construction of this railway at once. Engineers have been sent by the Peking-Hankow Railway Company to survey the line, and work will be commenced next month. The construction will be under the direction of the French.\n\n\"Tsitsihar-Angangchi Railway.—A Chinese Company with a capital of 320,000 taels has been formed for the construction of this short line (a distance of 50 li). The contract for building the line has been given to a German firm, Messrs. Telge and Schroeter. Work will be commenced in June.\n\n**\n\n5\n\n'Proposed Appointment of Judicial Officials.—The provincial authorities of Kwangtung, Yunnan, and Kweichow proposed some time ago that judicial officers (Pu Huo Ts'ai P'an) should be appointed in the interior with a view to preparing for the withdrawal of the right of exterritoriality at present enjoyed by foreigners. The Government, with the assistance of Wai-wu Pu and Hsien Cheng Kuan, are engaged in drawing up Regulations for the purpose.\n\n\"Proposed Railways in the North-west.—The Shen-Kan Viceroy has recommended the construction of two lines, one from Kalgan to Urga, a distance of 2,450 li, the other from Sui-yuan along the north bank of the Yellow River to Ning-hsia; thence to Liang-Chou, Hami, Ti-hua, and Ili, a distance of 8,000 li. These railways could not be constructed as a commercial enterprise, but would be of great importance for military purposes.\n\nMining in Shansi.—Since buying out the Peking Syndicate, the Taiyuan Fu Mining Company have obtained permission to raise capital to the amount of 5,000,000 taels to develop the mines, and the capital has already been over-subscribed, only Chinese being permitted to purchase shares. A Chinese mining engineer has been engaged at a salary of 600 taels a-month, machinery has been ordered from Europe, and 1,000,000 taels of the capital is to be devoted to the establishment of an iron foundry.\n\nThe \"Universal Gazette,\" in an article on the danger of ignorance of the limits of foreign relations, proceeds to argue that, while the limitation of India's export of opium is a diplomatic question, China's monopoly of sale of the prepared drug is an internal Government step with which England has no concern, since the nature of the drug has been altered, and so the Treaty with England does not apply. At present the shops charge at will, irrespective of the duty and li-kin, and England has nothing to say. Similarly, Chinese prohibition of rice export does not affect cakes and biscuits made of it. Moreover, a rise in price is not a customs duty; the aliens might as well claim to interfere with the proposed stamp duties, which will be charged on native and foreign goods alike.\n\nThe distinction between diplomatic and non-diplomatic matters is quite easy. Another instance, the Soo-Hang-Ning Railway. The Tsung-li Yamên's agreement with the British Envoy might be brought within the scope of diplomacy, but, as regards construction, the publication of the Railway Regulations took that out of the Wai-wu Pu's sphere, and the Wai-wu Pu should have told Sir J. Jordan to bid his nationals petition the Board of Communications direct, and have declined to interfere, quoting as precedents the American exclusion, which its State Department insisted pertained solely to the Labour Department; the Manchurian troops question, which Russia said pertained to her War Office; the Touquin Consuls, which the French Foreign Office put on its Colonial Department, and all the other precedents of recent years. Unfortunately, the Board waited till it got a bad name by resisting popular opinion before it got the Board of Communications to make the loan,\n\nThen trade-marks: all China promised was rules like other Powers, yet foreigners are allowed to interfere with their tenor. And the Mining Rules, which were drafted with the aid of foreign advisers, were still less open to foreign revision.\n\nIf attention is paid to their protests on more and more questions, China's independence will be lost through Chinese heedlessness.\n\nThe trouble has come from the fact that the Wai-wu Pu is not bound, like other posts, to report to the Throne and quote precedents. It has assumed unlimited powers, and, with a Prince and Grand Councillors at its head, ignores all control, and, without knowing it, is a danger to the State. Could folly go further?\n\nTo recover from the consequences will take many years' struggles and constant supervision, which latter is beyond the Throne, the Council and the Ministers, and to be found only in an elected Parliament. This is the only means to safety.\n\nThe \"Eastern Times\" of the 25th March professes to give the gist of a secret report by the Chinese Delegates to The Hague Conference on the European position. He describes the Peace Conference as a covert struggle for each Power's private objects. England dislikes Germany, which, since its victory over France, has increased in military pride above not only England, but the whole world, and is now developing a navy. So Russia fell in with England's request, in order, it is said, to safeguard her Asiatic possessions after Japan's victory over Russia. So Russia and Japan nearly came to rupture over the naval question, who five years ago started the limitation of armaments proposal, now refused to sign such an Agreement. The Conference reminds him of Sung's abortive assembly of the States (in B.C. 545), when the Ch'u men wore armour under their clothes.\n\n797",

Their existence has led to serious evils, and has directed the attention of the authorities to the necessity of limiting the evil by more effective measures of control.\n\n3. In the East the abuse of opium dates back several centuries. In India, where opium is usually swallowed in the form of pills (\"opium eating\"), this vicious habit largely conduced to the inferiority of the native troops, and contributed materially to the British victories of the eighteenth century. In China the vicious use of the drug appears to have begun when the habit of smoking opium was introduced from the Island of Formosa at the beginning of the same century. The Chinese Government, as early as 1729, issued an Edict prohibiting the sale of opium and ordering the closing of opium dens. This prohibition was repeatedly renewed under more and more strict penalties. Nevertheless, the use of opium continued to spread in China. In 1840 the measures taken by the Chinese Government to put an end to the import of the drug at Canton led to a war between China and Great Britain. After a second war, in which Great Britain and France were allied against China, the Chinese Government at last consented, by a supplement to the Treaty of Tien-tsin (1858), to legalize the import of opium. Being thenceforth unable to prevent the introduction of foreign opium, the Chinese authorities allowed their former laws prohibiting the cultivation of the poppy to fall into desuetude. The production of native opium increased year by year, so that in a Report recently prepared by the British Legation at Peking (China No. 1 (1908)), p. 33) the production in China is estimated at about six times the amount of the import.\n\nA century ago the yearly import of opium into China was under 300 tons; there is no reliable evidence that at that time any opium was produced in China. The total annual consumption in China prior to the reforms of the past two years was estimated at over 22,000 tons, of which 3,180 tons came from India.\n\n4. When Japan opened her ports to the commerce of the world she was careful to stipulate, by an Article of her Treaty with Great Britain made in 1858, that the trade in opium should be entirely prohibited, excepting for medical requirements. Japan has always maintained this prohibition under very severe penalties, which are rigorously enforced. The Committee of Investigation appointed by the American Government of the Philippine Islands in 1903 says on this subject in its Report:-\n\nSelf-governing British Colonies.\n\n\"There has been no moment in the nation's history when the people have wavered in their uncompromising attitude toward the drug and its use, so that an instinctive hatred of it possesses them. China's curse has been Japan's warning, and a warning heeded. No surer testimony to the reality of the evil effects of opium can be found than the horror with which China's next-door neighbour views it.\"\n\n5. All the self-governing British Colonies which contain any considerable Chinese population have adopted prohibitive laws against the sale and use of opium, apart from medical requirements. New Zealand in 1901 and Australia in 1901 adopted strict measures against the import and sale of the drug. This prohibitive legislation is due, in both Colonies, to the initiative of the Chinese themselves. Canada has just adopted (July 1908) a similar law, in order to put an end to the opium traffic carried on by Chinese in her ports on the Pacific Coast.\n\nFormosa.\n\nPhilippine Islands.\n\n6. After the annexation of Formosa, where the opium vice prevailed widely amongst the natives, the Japanese Government enacted a law constituting the opium trade a State monopoly. Under this law consumers have to register themselves, and can only obtain the daily dose of opium stated in their certificate of registration. After a certain date, no fresh registrations were to be allowed, so that on the disappearance of the present generation of consumers, the non-medical use of the drug should come to an end. There were, in 1900, 169,064 registered consumers; this number had fallen in 1907 to 113,937.\n\n7. After the annexation of the Philippine Islands by the United States, the American Government was faced by the question of the use of opium. A Committee of Inquiry was appointed, consisting of three members: the Chairman, Major Carter, was the Commissioner of Public Health for the islands; the second member was the Right Rev. C. H. Brent, Anglican Bishop in the islands; the third, Dr. José Albert, a distinguished Filipino physician. The Committee visited Japan, Formosa, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Saigon, Singapore, Penang, Burma, and Java. The recommendations contained in the Report which it presented to the Government are reproduced in Appendix (A).\n\nIn pursuance of these recommendations the American Congress enacted, in March 1905, immediate prohibition of the sale and use of opium to Filipinos, except for medical requirements. The Chinese population of about 70,000 was allowed a period of three years, at the end of which prohibition was to be applicable to it also. A law adopted by the Legislature of the Philippines on the 10th October, 1907, directed that the Chinese consumers should be registered, that only their accustomed daily dose of opium should be furnished to them, and that this dose should be reduced each month by 15 per cent, until it was entirely cut off. On the 1st March, 1908, the day on which prohibition became universal in the Philippine Islands, there remained only some 200 opium smokers in a hospital at Manila and a few more in provincial hospitals. These were soon entirely cured. In those islands prohibition appears to be, as in Japan, complete and effective; only druggists and medical men can obtain opium for medical requirements.\n\n8. In the course of the debate in the House of Commons in May 1906, on the Chinese Resolution mentioned in paragraph 1, the Secretary of State for India, Mr. John Morley (now Lord Morley), intervened to state the position of the Government on this question. He stated that both the British Government and the Government of India would agree to any proposal which the Chinese Government might make in good faith for the restriction of the consumption of opium. This offer was communicated to the Chinese Government by the British Minister at the Court of Peking, Sir John Jordan. On the 20th September, 1906, the Imperial Decree appeared, of which a translation follows:-\n\n\"Imperial Decree.\n\n\"Since the restrictions against the use of opium were removed, the poison of this drug has practically permeated the whole of China. The opium smoker wastes time and neglects his work, ruins his health, and impoverishes his family, and the poverty and weakness which for the past few decades have been daily increasing amongst us are undoubtedly attributable to this cause. To speak of this arouses our indignation, and, at a moment when we are striving to strengthen the Empire, it behoves us to admonish the people that all may realize the necessity of freeing themselves from these coils, and thus pass from sickness into health.\n\n\"It is hereby commanded that within a period of ten years the evils arising from foreign and native opium be equally and completely eradicated. Let the Government Council (Cheng Wu Chu) frame such measures as may be suitable and necessary for strictly forbidding the consumption of the drug and the cultivation of the poppy, and let them submit their proposals for our approval.\"\n\nTwo months later, at the end of November, were published the detailed Regulations for giving effect to the Edict of September, of which a translation is contained in Appendix (B).* It will be sufficient here to give a brief summary. The Regulations begin (Article 1) by directing the suppression of opium cultivation in China within ten years. Governors are to ascertain the acreage hitherto devoted to poppy cultivation in their respective provinces, and to diminish it gradually by one-ninth each year. The local authorities who succeed in completely extinguishing the cultivation before the end of the ten years are to be encouraged and rewarded. Smokers are to be registered (Article 2); those only who have obtained licences will be allowed to purchase the prescribed quantity of opium. Under Article 3 this quantity is to be annually reduced by 20 or 30 per cent., except as regards persons over 60 years of age. Opium-smoking dens are to be closed after six months (Article 4), and existing opium shops are to be closely inspected (Article 5). The preparation and distribution of medicines for the cure of smokers are to be encouraged, provided these medicines do not contain opium or morphia (Article 6). Anti-Opium Societies are to be encouraged (Article 7); the local authorities and gentry are exhorted to take the lead in the anti-opium movement (Article 8). It is strictly forbidden to officials of every degree to smoke opium (Article 9); they ought to give the people an example of abstinence from this vice. Those who are already over 60, and cannot, therefore, give up the habit, will be dispensed with; the rest will be allowed a period of six months to cure themselves. The Board of Foreign Affairs is to enter into negotiations (Article 10) with foreign Powers with a view to ending the import of opium from abroad.\n\n* This refers to the French translation appended to the original Memorial. An English translation, made at the British Embassy in Peking will be found on pp. 4-8 of the White Paper China No. 1 (1908); Correspondence respecting the Opium Question in China.\" It has been reprinted separately by the Society for the Suppression of the Opium Trade, 181, Queen Victoria Street, London, EC.",

        "content_text": "## Eating Opium and Alternatives\n\n### Morphia and Other Substitutes\n\nIn Hongkong, it seems there is a distinct probability that alcohol may replace opium. The danger of alcohol as a substitute for opium is real since cheap liquor-shops abound. Opium is a sedative that tends to inaction, and there is a consensus of opinion that it is responsible for no crime, while alcohol is a stimulant that disposes towards aggressive action and admittedly produces crime. The effects of opium are rarely visible and are never seen in public places. Drunkenness, on the contrary, is a cause of inconvenience in the public streets and is a degrading spectacle.\n\nA second alternative to the use of alcohol to replace the smoking of opium is found in eating the drug—a method hitherto practically unknown in China. The many kinds of \"anti-opium\" pills distributed gratis or sold in vast quantities throughout China are said to contain opium, thus encouraging the habit of eating instead of smoking. This, as Sir John Jordan points out, is a far more dangerous practice and infinitely harder to eradicate. Dr. Main, C.M.S., is quoted in the public press as stating that whereas his Mission formerly always had a large number of persons under treatment for the cure of the habit, they have ceased to come now that these pills can be procured.\n\nAnother, still more deplorable substitute is morphia, whether consumed internally or injected hypodermically. Dr. Morrison, correspondent of *The Times*, bears witness to the immense increase in the consumption of morphia and lays special stress on the fact that its importation cannot be checked by an increase in duties. In 1904, the duties were raised from 5% to 200%, and the recorded import fell from 195,133 oz. in 1902 to 96 ozs. in 1907, but there is no reason to doubt that at the present time, the import is nearer to ten tons (smuggled). He adds that \"orders have been given for 1,000 lbs. weight in one transaction, the morphia being packed in 7, 14, 21, and 28 lb. tins, four in a case. This smuggling is wholesale, while Chinese returning from Borneo, Java, Malay, and Siam, in a large number of cases, bring back morphia as savings to China.\" The morphia is believed to be ordered wholesale (chiefly from London) and transhipped at sea for smuggling.\n\nThe Powers have recently agreed that from 1.1.09, the importation of morphia into China shall be prohibited, while both they and China undertake not to manufacture it in China. The Chinese Government issued elaborate instructions to regulate the import for medicinal purposes. These Regulations will no doubt be operative as regards the 96 oz. legitimately imported, but since China has already shown herself entirely powerless to check smuggling over her 7,000 miles of land and 4,000 miles of sea frontier, it is feared that little benefit will accrue from this convention. The Government of Hongkong has, however, come forward to assist as far as it can. Regulations to control more effectively the transit trade have been issued, making it obligatory to obtain a license and to declare the port of destination and establishing one Government warehouse only.\n\nThe increase in the imports of wine, beer, and spirits into Canton is shown by the following figures from the Customs returns:\n| Year | Taels |\n|------|-------|\n| 1897 | 24,527 |\n| 1902 | 48,857 |\n| 1907 | 209,744 |\n\nThe Straits Commission states that there is already an increase in the consumption of alcohol among Straits-born Chinese, and the prohibition of opium would increase it among Chinese generally. It is stated that the import of opium in the Federated Malay States has decreased by $93,000, while the import of alcoholic liquors increased by $355,000.\n\nThe Bishop of London stated in the House of Lords that 90 to 93% of the prisoners in one British Gaol were brought there by drink. The Lunacy Commissioner ascribed 22% of lunatics to the same cause, apart from hereditary dipsomaniacs. It should be remembered, moreover, that it is foreign merchants who import the liquor into China, while they import only a fraction of the opium.\n\nThe Straits Commission states it as their view that smoking is by far the least deleterious method of using Opium—only a small part of the alkaloids being absorbed. Smoking of \"Dross\" is worse than pure Opium, and the custom of eating \"Dross\" is worst of all.\n\nThe official returns show an average import for five years prior to 1904 of 141,861 oz. and for the years 1901-1907 of 174 oz. only. Of the import in 1902 (195,133 oz), the United Kingdom and Hongkong between them imported 95.8% (United Kingdom 149,726 oz., Hongkong 37,205 oz.). In 1903, they imported 85.7%. Though the Customs only show 51 oz. as imported in 1905, the \"distribution through each Customs District\" shows 14,007 oz. for that year—a proof of smuggling.\n\nThe present exports to all countries through Hongkong amounted to about 400 cases in 1907, to which may be added the trade in \"opium compounds\" (which are chiefly opium and morphia pills), amounting in 1906 and 1907 to an average of 7,938 lbs.\n\n### Morphia in Anti-Opium Pills\n\nMorphia is not only imported in a liquid form for injection but also in the insidious form of so-called \"anti-opium pills,\" which are sold in vast quantities as a cure for opium smoking. The Commissioner of Imperial Maritime Customs states that these morphia pills are obtainable in every medicine shop in Canton, and their sale is increasing. The offer of a reward of Tls. 15 for every 12 oz. detected produced no result and proves how lucrative the business is. The Consul General at Canton sent some samples of pills for analysis. They contained as much as 2% and 3 grains (13 to 17 grammes). The Viceroy, acting on the orders of the Central Government, issued a Proclamation directing that a scheme must be devised for the supervision of all shops selling anti-opium pills, the amounts of sales reduced, and the analysis more carefully made. He particularly laid emphasis on the fact that the vendors of the pills were in many cases exhibiting sign-boards stating that they were sold under Government authority, and in that case, the Chinese Government were merely substituting a worse form of opium consumption after obtaining from India and the British Colonies, under false pretences, a cooperation that seriously affected their Revenue.\n\nThirty samples of pills from Shanghai were also recently analyzed at the request of Sir A. Hosie. In 17 samples, each pill contained from 1 to 1/8 of a grain of morphine; the remainder (all but two) contained lesser quantities.\n\nThe Government Analyst in Hongkong has found as much as 26% of morphia in some of the anti-opium pills imported for sale here, but the local restrictions have been effective in excluding any containing more than about 16% from the market.\n\nDr. Graham Asplund, writing from Peking, addressed a striking appeal on this subject to the *China Times*. He says: \"Anti-opium tabloids contain morphia in large doses. They are sold and prepared by a British firm doing both wholesale and retail business here in China. How many tons of morphia tabloids are being sold in China at this present moment, I would not like to venture to guess, but I am prepared to believe it is appalling.\" He further states that even in remote country villages, morphin tabloids and hypodermic syringes are frequently seen, and a condition of things that allows a Chinaman to buy daily a dram bottle of Japanese morphia (60 grains) imperatively calls for restriction if not prohibition.\n\n### Comparative Danger of Different Methods\n\nThe Government Analyst made a report after careful enquiry as to the comparative quantities and cost of the four methods of indulgence. He endorses the statement that 4 mace of opium (233 grains) may be considered as an excess smoker's quantum as being in accordance with his own observations:\n| Method | Quantity in Grains | Cost |\n|--------|--------------------|------|\n| Smoking | 233 (4 mace)       | $1.39|\n| Eating Opium | 12              | 7 cents |\n| Eating Morphia | 1/4 grain         | 2 cents |\n| Injected Morphia | 1/12 grain       | 14 cents |\n\nThe words of the Proclamation in this connection are as follows: \"The Governor of Hongkong in his reply to the Consul General remarked that if the sale of such 'remedies' was officially countenanced, the assurances of the Chinese Government of their 'determination to stamp out the drug' were meaningless, and it practically amounted to the 'substitution and sanction of one form of the opium habit instead of another.'\"",

In 1888, 2,614 British ships of 3,265,751 tons entered the port, against 10,115 ships of 11,792,752 tons in 1908. For Foreign ships the figures are in 1888, 1,206 ships of 1,252,862 tons and in 1908, 5,429 ships of 8,130,901 tons. These figures are those for Ocean and River Steamers, which were not distinguished in 1888 and Ocean going sailing ships (not junks).\n\nTRADE.\n\nSince Hongkong is a Free Port no accurate returns based on Customs entries, can be given of the exports, imports and goods in transit.\n\nThere are however certain items of cargo, dealt with in the Colony, of which, either from their nature and the circumstances under which they are imported, or from the fact that they are required by law to be specially reported, substantially accurate returns can be given. These items are Coal, Kerosene Oil (which includes all products of petroleum), Opium, Morphine, Compounds of Opium, and Sugar.\n\n1,018,753 tons of Coal were imported during the year. This shows a negligible increase of 13,886 tons (1·3%) over the imports during 1907.\n\nOf Bulk Oil 61,818 tons arrived, an increase of 17,938 tons, or 40.8%. This appears to have no special significance, but to be entirely due to the cheap freights ruling, and to the installation, by the Standard Oil Co., of oil tanks at Lai-chi-kok, which required filling.\n\n40,018 tons of Case Oil arrived, being an increase of 3,289, or 89%, over the 1907 figures. Here, again, the cheap freights were taken advantage of to fill up stocks,\n\nLiquid Fuel, which has increased from 3,272 tons in 1907 to 13,832 tons in 1908, was probably affected by the same causes as were Bulk and Case Oil, in addition to which, there has been an increased demand for this product, owing to more steamers using liquid fuel having visited the Colony during the year.\n\nAlthough, as has been said, no reliable figures can be given for General Cargo it would appear from returns received, that there has been a considerable decline in the imports of Rice and Flour. The falling off in Rice is due to the exceptional crop in Northern and Central China as a result of which prices at Shanghai and the Yangtze ports were lower than in Siam and Annam, and the imports from those countries declined in consequence. It is also stated that the rice merchants of Bangkok instituted a boycott against the Norddeutscher Lloyd steamers (late Scottish Oriental) which monopolise the carrying trade between that port and Hongkong. The rice trade from the South having now reverted to its usual conditions, I see no reason to doubt that this year will see it restored to its former channels.\n\nFlour shows a large decrease, from 147,000 to 91,000 tons, which appears to be due to the fact that the Colony is ceasing to be the distributing centre for this commodity. Shipments are now made direct from ports on the Pacific Coast of North America to Shanghai, Amoy, Singapore, &c., instead of transhipping here, as heretofore.\n\nThere is however a possibility that, the Hongkong Milling Company being in liquidation, some small recrudescence in this branch of trade may occur.\n\nThe total reported Imports during the year amounted to 4,170,000 tons, as against 4,366,000 tons in 1907, a decrease of 4.4%. Exports also show a decrease, from 2,354,000 tons to 2,103,000 tons or 10.7%. Transit cargo declined from 3,396,000 to 3,373,000 tons or 0.7%.\n\nEmigration.\n\nSeventy one thousand and eighty-one (71,081) emigrants left Hongkong for various places during the year, of these, 53,118 were carried in British ships and 17,963 in Foreign ships. These figures show a decrease of 34,886 emigrants, or 32.9%, compared with those for 1907.\n\nIt is difficult to account for this large decrease, but there were probably several contributing factors, such as the general depression in trade and consequent decreased demand for labour, and the quarantine restrictions placed upon vessels from the Colony to other ports, which probably had a great effect. But the chief causes undoubtedly were:-\n\n1. The cessation of Assisted Emigrants to Banka and Billiton. This emigration commenced in 1907, and served to largely swell the figures for that year. The demand for labour in those islands was not very large, and all the plantations there were fully manned before the beginning of 1908.\n\n2. The West River floods checked recruiting during the first six months of the year.\n\n3. There was a considerable demand for labour on the several railways under construction in China, which restricted the recruiting area.\n\nOne hundred and fifty seven thousand eight hundred and nine (157,809) returning emigrants were brought to Hongkong from the several places to which they had emigrated, either from this Colony or from Coast Ports. This includes 106 returning from South Africa. Of the total number 116,094 arrived in British ships and 41,715 in Foreign ships.\n\n(b) INDUSTRIES.\n\nSugar Refining Industry.-The year 1908 was more favourable for the sugar refining industry of the Colony than 1907 owing to the curtailment of supplies of Java White Sugars and of Japanese refined in the China market. As a consequence of this, prices advanced during the year, and the local Refineries were able to market their Sugars under improved conditions. European beets were conspicuous by their absence doubtless owing to the low silver rate of exchange for sterling remittances.\n\nYarn Trade.-The extreme depression during the two preceding years adversely affected the market during the beginning of 1908 and prices continued to rule below the parity of those at the producing centres. Later in the year the demand improved and prices rose steadily. Large sales were effected, leaving a fair margin of profit to Importers while the Chinese dealers did very well indeed on their purchases. Stocks became abnormally reduced and the year closed with an improving tendency. In May last the local Cotton Mill found it advisable to resume full working but the difficulty in procuring adequate labour prevented the Company from taking full advantage of the improvement in demand. The bulk of the production was sold direct to Shanghai and the Northern Ports.\n\nRope Manufacturing Industry.-The remarks made last year on the Rope Manufacturing Industry apply in some measures to the year 1908. Conditions have not altered much in either direction, prices have been reduced to customers, and there is a larger demand with increased output.\n\nCement Industry.--The conditions under which this industry has been carried on have been much the same as in 1907, and there has been a good demand throughout the year,\n\nTai Kong Milling Company Limited, formerly known as Hongkong Milling Company Limited.-The Flour Mills at Junk Bay were not running for a greater part of 1908.\n\nOriental Brewery, Limited.-A recently established industry is that of the Oriental Brewery, Limited, at Laichikok. This Brewery will shortly place its product on the market and its capacity is about 100,000 barrels per annum.\n\nPage 462",

        "content_text": "## Inclosure 9 in No. 1.\n\n### Newspaper Extract.\n\n#### Address by Tuan Fung at Opening of International Opium Commission.\n\nGentlemen,\n\nON the 20th September, 1906, an Imperial Edict was issued prohibiting the cultivation and use of opium throughout the Empire within a period of ten years. According to a report from the Ministry concerned, the result of any inquiry into the question shows that, up to the present, progress has been made in reducing the area under cultivation of the poppy plant in the various provinces. As a matter of fact, the area where the poppy has been cultivated in the Kiangnan portion of Kiangsu Province has been now reduced by 80 per cent., while it is on record that from the six Provinces of Shansi, Yunnan, Fuhkien, Anhui, Honan, and Heilungkiang, or Northern Manchuria, Memorials have been presented to the Throne reporting that the cultivation of the poppy will be entirely stopped by the winter of the present year. Even more than that: the gentry and merchants of the various provinces of the Empire have everywhere started societies to exhort and assist opium smokers to get rid of the baneful habit. For instance, we have an Association in Fuhkien Province known as the Anti-Poison Society, which has been making considerable progress in its campaign against the drug.\n\nIndeed, from the present outlook, together with the state of public opinion throughout our Empire, there are great hopes that the consumption of opium can be stopped in its entirety before the end of the prescribed limit of ten years.\n\nTo-day it is my good fortune to be present at this International Conference, having been appointed by Imperial Rescript to open the proceedings. I am convinced that the countries of the world recognize that the benevolence and philanthropy which have led to the gathering of the present Conference in the interests of civilization, and I may state that the people of our whole Empire are most grateful for it. It will need more eloquence than mine to fittingly express the cordial welcome with which our country hails the inauguration of this International Opium Conference, but I may take this opportunity to first respectfully tender the thanks of my Government and that of the people of this Empire to the American Government for initiating the movement which has brought about this Conference, and next to thank the Governments of the various countries here represented for so heartily joining in it.\n\nAs the Representative of the whole Empire, I beg leave to give this Conference some of our ideas on the subject in view.\n\nI may be permitted to express my belief that this Conference will be principally guided by the feelings of reason, benevolence, and philanthropy in its desire to eradicate a poison and a bane to mankind. This being universally recognized, it becomes us to put aside all prejudices of nationality and race and be guided solely by that world-wide philanthropy and enlightenment which have brought about this International Conference. For instance, the manner in which the Governments of the countries concerned have set about to stop the consumption of opium in their Colonies and dependencies such as Formosa, Annam, the Philippine Islands, Java, &c., has been to undertake the monopoly of the sale of opium therein, a procedure which China alone has not yet put into actual force; as a matter of fact, the mere prohibition of opium without the Government having the monopoly of the sale of the drug will prevent the Government from learning the number of persons suffering from the habit, nor can it put into effect any laws for the suppression of opium consumption. Mr. Leech, Councillor of the British Legation in Peking, has stated: \"Whether China can completely obtain the good she seeks without Government control of opium both native-grown and imported is somewhat doubtful,\" an opinion which gains my deep admiration for his wisdom and far-sightedness, and merits our sincere thanks for his warm sympathy in our endeavours. What, however, is to be apprehended is that Chinese merchants importing opium may claim that such a step will be contrary to former Treaties and be disadvantageous to their trade and so oppose it, thereby preventing China from putting into effect a proper control over opium and the spread of the opium prohibition throughout the country. Thus not only will it not agree with the sincere intentions first expressed by the British Government to give every assistance to China, but also be a hindrance to the movement initiated by the American Government; nor will it enable the various countries represented in this Conference to show their unanimity in assisting this Conference to solve the questions before it. This is a matter to be regretted, indeed, and it is my earnest hope that this Conference will thoroughly go into this matter during its deliberations.\n\nIt was at first intended to limit the abolition of opium in this Empire to ten years, but the various provinces have been able to so reduce the cultivation of the poppy that it would seem that this cultivation may be entirely stopped within the next couple of years. Moreover, the sale of prepared opium has also been rapidly reduced to over one-half, so that we may certainly be able to entirely stop the sale and consumption of the native-grown opium within the prescribed limit of ten years, stoppage of our native-grown opium it would follow that the importation of the foreign drug will also stop as a natural sequence. Such being the case, the people of my country will have reason to congratulate themselves on what has gone before, and this we owe to the assistance given by the British Government and to the labours of the American Government in initiating the movement which brought about this Conference. On the other hand, the attempts of this Government to suppress opium are hampered by existing Treaties. Should a way be found by which such clauses in the Treaties that restrict the freedom of my Government in its work of abolishing the consumption of the drug in the Empire may be got over with, so that we may succeed in accomplishing our great and important task, fortunate indeed will it be for our Government and the people of this Empire. It is my earnest hope that this Conference will use its best endeavours to thresh out this question.\n\nOn the whole, since the main object of this Conference will be to consider the question of opium, fortunate indeed will it be for the whole world if by the labours of the Conference a way be found to shorten the limit and bring about the abolition of opium at an early date. I do not think that national interests and division of races will be brought forward and produce difficulties between our countries, thereby hampering the work of opium abolition.\n\nWhat is the meaning of the phrase: \"To seek for gain and yet fear to overcome difficulties\"? The honourable gentlemen who are present this day as members of the Conference have all been selected by their respective Governments for their benevolence, philanthropy, and fame. Since such is the case, I am certain that no one amongst this distinguished assembly will act contrary to the benevolent and enlightened objects which have brought them together here. I will therefore be the first to declare to this...",

Pescic, Merchant of this Colony, we have the honour to address you under the following circum-stances: -\n\n1.\n\nOur client desires that your Government will grant him a concession to build a Railway between the City of Victoria and Aberdeen for the purpose of opening a new building area on the South side of the Island of Hongkong. Our client has already had the honour of interviewing H.E. the Governor about his scheme and if, on further consideration of its possibilities, our client's scheme meets with the approval of H. E. the Governor, he would desire to introduce a bill in the Legislative Council to sanction the undertaking herein described.\n\n2.\n\nOur client proposes that the railway should start from Wyndham Street at the back of the Dairy Farm and should enter a tunnel below the late Mr. Belilios house in Kennedy Road in the nullah to the west of that building. This tunnel would terminate above the Pokfulum reservoir, and the railway line at the junction with the Pokfulum Road would branch off Westward to Hoi Chi Wan and Eastward to Aberdeen. It is proposed that the Railway line should be a single track one with sufficient sidings. It is also proposed that the rolling stock should be composed of electrically self-propelled carriages.\n\n3.\n\nIn considering the possibilities of opening up a new building area, it is a matter of first importance that such area should present sufficient advantages to command attention, and also advantages not obtainable elsewhere. Our client, in selecting for this purpose the land at present lying partly waste between Pokfulum and Aberdeen East and Pokfulum and Hoi Chi wan west, considers that amongst other advantages this area of land possesses the most important factor of being in the Island of Hongkong, so that those who take up their residence hereafter upon it, will be enabled to travel to and from Victoria and its business portion, in a very few minutes.\n\nOur client's engineer has advised him that the portion of the railway line to be laid down between the terminal station in the City of Victoria and ending at Douglas Castle through tunnelling the Peak above described, will not exceed two miles - a distance easily covered in from four to five minutes.\n\nIn connection with the Railway our client would at first propose to build houses for the occupation of Europeans on either side of the line, and our client would desire that a free grant of land, where available, should be made to him by Your Government from Crown Lands not already privately owned, which he suggests should roughly be 500 feet in depth, and thereon he proposes to build 135 to 150 houses all of approved and uniform pattern and all standing amongst gardens. Our client would also require permission to use where necessary, the existing roads, and he would undertake to widen some if necessary at his own expense, and would assume the maintenance of any roads so used whereon any railway is laid as lies between the rails and eighteen inches beyond the rails on each side of such rails.\n\nThe site chosen by our client situated between Hoi Chi Wan west and Aberdeen East, and which would be tapped by the Railway commands one of the finest positions in the Island. The proposed locality is sheltered from the North winds and exposed to",

If, as is suggested, this is largely a matter of \"face,\" it should be possible to overcome this objection by some alteration in the wording of the agreement which would secure the substance of control while sacrificing the shadow.\n\nA further complication is introduced by Sheng's attempt to apply part of the loan proceeds to a payment in gold of the Boxer indemnity. This again does not appear to me to present any insuperable difficulty, provided, as proposed, the equivalent amount in silver is paid over to the banks in Shanghai.\n\nAs soon as the views of the other groups have been ascertained I shall communicate with you the nature of the reply they propose to make to this joint telegram.\n\nThe French having given their consent, the four groups are now agreed provisionally to nominate Dr. Vissering, the president of the Java Bank, for the post of financial adviser in connection with the currency loan. The United States Government has, I understand, already made certain suggestions to the Chinese Government with regard to the emoluments of the office. As soon as they have been settled, the American group will then proceed to enquire if Dr. Vissering is willing to act.\n\nYours truly,\n**C. S.

Following just received from Straight, Hillier, Casenave, Cordes -\n\n\"Referring to our telegram of the 1st, Sheng informed us Regent had instructed him to state ratification by Imperial edict could not be given agreement containing provision that if banks did not find currency reform programme and statement reliable basis for bonds issue agreement would be null and void. Sheng further stated Regent will not agree to two-and-a-half months antedating. It has developed that first objection largely a matter of face. We have therefore proposed as follows:—\n\n\"Omit from article No. 15 draft of the 16th March provision for cancellation agreement in case banks refuse to accept currency reform programme statement.\n\n\"Add to article No. 8, section 5, provision that advances shall be repaid in any case within 18 months from signature of agreement unless otherwise mutually arranged between board of finance and banks.' \n\n\"From language of section 2, article No. 8, providing for issue loan on notification board of finance that banks have found currency reform programme and statement reliable basis for bonds issue, it follows that no bonds issue will be made unless you accept currency reform programme and statement; and this is fully understood by Chinese, while addition to section 5 secures repayment advances in any case.\n\n\"In addition to transfer 300,000l. in any one week, Sheng desires banks in Europe and America under instructions board of finance to pay out up to one-half proceeds of",

Persian by 1,090 or 27.6%. \n\nOf the several varieties of opium exported, Malwa decreased by 2,000 chests or 43.5%, Patna by 4,196 or 29.7%, Benares by 926 or 14.9%. The export of Persian opium increased by 56 chests or 2.5%. \n\nThe trade in compounds of opium shows a decrease, the imports being 38.8% less than in 1910 and the exports 14.5% less. In morphine there is also a decrease of 39% in the imports and 19.5% in the exports. The figures for cocaine show a considerable increase, the imports being 451 lbs. as compared with 145 lbs. in 1910, and the exports being 445 lbs. as compared with 201 lbs in 1910. During the latter half of the year, however, there has been very little trade in either morphine or cocaine owing to further restrictions placed on the import of these drugs at the various ports in China and the neighbouring countries. \n\nSugar. The imports of sugar show a decrease 42,076 tons or 16.7%. \n\nCotton and Cotton Yarn.-Here is shown a large decrease amounting to 34,730 tons or 87.5% chiefly due to high prices ruling for cotton during the year, which made it prohibitive to the poorer Chinese and so checked business. The last two or three months of the year were particularly bad for business owing to the Revolution. \n\nFlour. Our returns show a great increase of 49,679 tons or 153.8% due to the poor rice and wheat crops in China throughout the year. Districts, which were supplied last year from the abundant crops of China, have this year been compelled to fall back on the American products. The price of rice has also enhanced the demand for American flour, this being used as a substitute for rice and rice-flour. The prices of rice throughout the year have practically stood at about 40% over normal prices, and possibly the high prices of flour in Australia have to some extent inflated our imports of flour here, inasmuch as such high prices have curtailed that country's shipments to ports south of Hongkong which are large consumers (Java, Straits, Burmah, &c.), and the southern ports have come to us for their supplies. Hongkong is the distributing centre of American flour for these ports. \n\nRice--Here our returns show a falling off of 152,224 tons or 20.6%. The failure of the southern crops in general, as evidenced by the high prices which have ruled on the markets for the last half year, has, of course, been the reason of the decline. \n\nSummary. The total reported imports during the year amounted to 3,095,793 tons, as against 4,202,104 tons in 1910, a decrease of 996,401 tons or 23.7%. Exports show an increase of 71,672 tons, or 3.1%. Transit cargo shows an increase of 66,109 tons or 16%. These figures are not however reliable, there being no means of collecting accurate information in the absence of any Customs State. \n\nEmigration and Immigration. \n\n135,565 emigrants left Hongkong for various places during the year 1911, (111,058 in 1910). Of these 92,691 were carried in British ships and 42,874 in foreign ships. These figures show a substantial increase of 24,507 (or 22%) over 1910, and can be accounted for in the same way as last year, namely, by the demand for labour in the rubber plantations of the Malay States. \n\nStatement of Number of Emigrants to Straits Settlements 1907 to 1911 compared with Total Chinese Emigration 1907 to 1911. \n\n  \n    Year\n    No. of Emigrants to Straits Settlements\n    Total No. of Emigrants\n  \n  \n    1907\n    83,048\n    106,967\n  \n  \n    1908\n    49,639\n    71,081\n  \n  \n    1909\n    48,010\n    77,430\n  \n  \n    1910\n    76,705\n    111,058\n  \n  \n    1911\n    100,906\n    135,565\n  \n\n149,894 returning emigrants are reported to have been brought to Hongkong from the several places to which they had emigrated, either from this Colony or from coast ports, as against 149,564 in 1910. Of these 112,328 arrived in British ships, and 37,566 in foreign ships. \n\n(b) INDUSTRIES. \n\n(1)-Under European Management. \n\nEngineering and Shipbuilding-This industry has improved during the year under review. \n\n  \n    1911\n    \n    \n    1910\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    Taikoo Dockyard and Eng.

Werkman, who has been working in this Institute on mosquitoes, had no difficulty in collecting \nand bringing back specimens of Stegomyia fasciata from the ports of Tandjoeng Priok, Semarang, and Soerabaya in Java during a trip down there on the Dutch Steamship Line, which is constantly running steamers backwards and forwards from Hong Kong to Java.\n\nHong Kong has been a large port for many years now, and very many ships have entered it from ports infected with Stegomyia fasciata. There has, therefore, been ample opportunity for Stegomyia fasciata to arrive and establish themselves here, but the results of the search, as far as it has gone, show that they have failed to do so.\n\nDr. Chan Tsun Kun, the Bacteriologist to the Government of Canton, late Bacteriological Assistant in the Institute, informs me that he has been carrying out a similar search for Stegomyia fasciata in Canton and that he has examined over five thousand specimens there with a negative result. This is of great interest as confirming the results so far obtained in Hong Kong.\n\nIt seems to me very curious that Stegomyia fasciata is not prevalent in Hong Kong and Canton, and I am unable to offer any explanation.",

The drafts are sent to the Deputy Registrar and Appraiser formally to be passed as an officer in authority. After they are passed by him they go to the Registrar. The Deputy Registrar would keep them for a few days until he has time to go through them as a matter of course and after he has finished with them they go to the Registrar formally who may keep them for an-other few days. Then they come back to me to be engrossed and after they are engrossed they are sent to the Deputy Registrar and Appraiser to be examined. The engrossing takes much longer time than the drafting work. Some of the grants have lengthy Wille akkur attached to them and take time to be examined. I was most highly pressed with work just about this time with interpreting in Criminal Sessions. I used to be for days engaged in Court from 10 a.m. till 4 p.m. and after that had to attend to general office work forgetting all about work that was not urgent and required no special attention to be given to. Mr. Noronha told me, I remember it perfectly well, that there was no urgency about the matter. In June he rang me up on the telephone and told me that the Bank would like to see the Letters of Administration and asked me if I could let him have it at my convenience. I promised and whilst I was attending to it he rang me up again. I then gave it my special attention and got it through for him by the 17th of June last and not the end as is stated by him.

        "content_text": "# Page Four\n\n## An Imaginary Interview With Carnival Director Dean\n\nMills Dean, the Director General of the 1915 Carnival, was finally located by our reporter at the rehearsal of \"Defending Their Homes\" on the Carnival grounds. He was in earnest conversation with Dr. Cox, Dr. Robinson, Mr. Batchelder, and Col. Johnson from Rome, Georgia, boyhood friend of Mrs. Wilson and now here directing the census. Mills explained to the scribe: \"You see, this spectacular drama must not only be attractive but it must be historically accurate in every detail. This pirate Tamah is fierce, and I would like to have Mr. Batchelder take that role, but he wishes to have a sea scene, the sinking of a passenger ship. We can't have that. He wants to save the ladies by putting life-belts on them. I don't want a sea drama. I want his views on how the fierce wild tribes ought to act. I want expert advice on savages from him. Then Col. Johnson is from the South and these Tamah pirates are supposed to come up from the south. He wants to have them all stop fighting and do a buck and wing dance and have a glee club quartette sing 'Georgia, Georgia, Over All', but you see how impossible it would be to give it local U.S.A. color. Dr. Robertson suggested that one side be chosen from the subscribers to 'Consolidacion Nacional' while the other be selected from the Vanguardia readers and arm both parties with stuffed clubs and let the tocsin ring and the people would get their money's worth, but this does not appeal to me. I want to have harmony. Dr. Cox has some of the clearest views, but I am sorry I cannot incorporate them into the show. He wants the dialogues written in the ancient Polynesian-Indico-Ibernica language which, according to undisputed authorities, might have been spoken here 1635 years ago or more correctly 280 A.D. He contends, and I think with force of reason, that all the private colleges would come and it would be a feast of reason as well as a flow of soul. But I think the general public wants something stirring so we have all collaborated and have produced this last word in dramatic art.\"\n\n\"I must express my admiration of the beautiful scenery and large conception, Mr. Mills.\"\n\n\"Oh, that was done by our esteemed and talented Sr. José Viñas of the Spanish Opera Co. He also has taken great pains to coach me in acting all the leading parts. You see, I stand ready to fill any part. It may be that one of the actors wants to go to a ball on a certain night, and if that happens you will find me right there with the goods and take his part without a hitch. Oh, it is not only in this great drama that I have become proficient, but I have made it a duty to be an understudy for every attraction in the Hubbub. I state it modestly that I am prepared to take Mme. Garcia's place in the bell-defying plunge through space in the dinky automobile. I have also given lots of attention running the Old Dutch Windmill. Boss La Pointe has volunteered to be understudy for Wa-wa, the Borneo missing link. I had some difficulty in successfully learning the parts in the Chinese playhouse. Of course, you know I would only be called on to play the leading parts because the minor parts can be filled by others and if they bungle it won't be so noticeable. These Chinese dramas continue on for two weeks and unless one gets thoroughly into the spirit of the play he cannot do it justice, but I may not be called on to act. I shudder to think of how I would correctly act the part of the Samar twins. It has been suggested that if they are indisposed and cannot show that act be suspended and I have about decided that this is the best solution because it would never do to only act half of the twins or in any other way do less than perfection.\"\n\n\"Mr. Dean, then nothing has been left to chance. You are bound to make it a success. What other features do you emphasize?\"\n\n\"There are the three parades. I have given them personal attention. I wanted Major Hartigan to take complete charge but he begged off. He said he wished to be foot loose and frisk about and have some fun with the boys. I have got a lot of real startling effects for the parades. The Japanese have taken a hold in great style as have the Chinese and when the boy scouts are masqueraded and their identity is hidden they will 'cut up dog' for fare-ye-well. Oh, it is all doped out and is going to be a hummer. Of course, the balls each night are a specialty by themselves. I shall naturally have to shape their course and destiny and now that the constabulary band is not here I will have to give special attention to the music. I have thought some of having a snare drum in the orchestra to keep up the spirit of the Escuela de Baile. Opinion is divided. There are those who declare they cannot dance without the drum while others want variety and have the drum cut out. I have been giving several hours a day with the brass bands putting life and ginger into them. Their technique is fairly good and if I get their morale improved I will have gained much.\"\n\n\"Mr. Dean, I really had no idea of the vast amount of work you have done. How did you ever dare to undertake it?\"\n\n\"Well, as one becomes accustomed to responsibilities one gets to carrying a few more on an ever-increasing ratio until the whole frame becomes a machine to do more and there is then no longer any limit to what the will power can force the unwilling body to do, but as each day sees its task well done there is the compensating reward of a contented mind. And now if you will please excuse me I see a duty before me. I have daily taken the young ladies who sell the chocolates on an imaginary round to accustom them to the routine and I see they are waiting for me as usual and the most possible must be made of the few days to insure thoroughness in every detail.\"\n\n## O'CONNELL'S, January 30, 1915\n\n### One On Cooper\n\nOle Olsen, the descendant of Eric the Red, the Viking king that beat Columbus to America by a century or two, now and then between times when he is shipping cigars to the States by the million or so, indulges in a little visit to the house of a friend out near the new reservoir. Ole went there last Sunday and spent some little time in looking over his friend's garden patch. Ole is some farmer himself. He says that when he was living back in Norway on the side of an iceberg, he often used to see pictures of trees and flowers and grain growing in the green fields and he thought that if he could ever get some place where winter did not last eleven months and a half every year he would turn farmer. Ole has a nice little garden around his place near the gas-house and quite frequently he attires himself in some old clothes that he had especially imported from the States to do the part right in, and ambles forth among the cabbage patches and the cucumber vines to fool the birds. Ole is the original thing in scarecrows when he gets properly togged out in his farmer costume. Well, to get back where we started. Ole was looking his friend's place over when he noticed that the pump would not work. Immediately he called his host's attention to the fact and suggested that he buy one of Henry Cooper's hot air pumps. His friend replied that Cooper was a pretty regular caller and thought that there was no necessity for buying a pump as Cooper's conversation could be used and this would cost nothing.\n\n### The breeze has been blowing some cooler Plaza Moraga this week.\n\n### Clever\n\nThat story printed in one of the daily papers about the possibility of the Igorot Scouts not being permitted to take part in the military parade because of their lack of pants, was certainly a clever piece of publicity. All over town people were talking about it and some of the rumors were that Major-General Barry had delivered an ultimatum that if the scouts from the hill country could not parade then there would be no parade of any of his troops. Quite a little excitement was stirred up about the matter. The carnival publicity man deserves a medal for putting that one over.\n\n### Paper Suppressed\n\nDublin, Ireland, Dec. 3. - The newspaper Sinn Fein did not appear today. The publishers of this journal refused to print in consequence of having been warned by the authorities that they would be liable to prosecutions for the publication of treasonable matter.\n\nThis is the second step in the suppression of Irish publications which have been opposing enlistment and expressing pro-German sentiments. The police last night raided the office of the Irish Freedom, a monthly publication, and confiscated all copies of the paper offered for sale on the news stands.\n\n## O'CONNELL'S, January 30, 1915\n\n### Manila Ethics\n\nCommissioner Dennison has decreed that a municipal doctor, paid by public funds, can refuse to attend any call for his services even in critical cases, if it is contrary to his established code of professional ethics.\n\nFor the benefit of those who have not seen the account of the case in question we will briefly state the main facts. An infant child of Capt. Hill of the Cavite naval ferry was taken with severe convulsions during the Captain's absence. Several women who live near went to the assistance of Mrs. Hill, and one was sent out to summon a doctor. This woman saw Dr. Catalino Nicolas, municipal doctor of Cavite, sitting in the drug store smoking and talking, and she rushed to him. She stated to him that Hill's baby was very sick and asked him to come at once. This doctor, paid out of public funds presumably to attend urgent cases, refused and stated as they had Dr. Victoriano before let them get him again and he would not go. Thanks to a merciful Providence the child did not die and this cold-blooded doctor did not have the joy of telling everybody in Cavite what an awful mistake it is to ever hire the other doctor because the other doctor turned up just in time and saved the child's life.\n\nThe public of Cavite asked Capt. Hill to report this matter because if this is the kind of spite that is worked out on a paying patient, what hope is there to get this doctor to visit a poor patient in time of need?\n\nThe accused doctor simply smiled when the charges were made. He knew that the influence that put him in office would keep him there. In answer to the charges he said he \"understood\" that he was merely wanted for consultation and that he did not want to look after somebody else's patients. His superior, Com. Dennison, figuratively speaking, patted him on the back and intimated to him that when an urgent call comes and he does not wish to violate professional ethics all he needs to do is to telephone the undertaker and coroner to go to a certain house and his ethical duties as municipal doctor will be quite fully and satisfactorily discharged.\n\nOh! for one hour of stern Worcester, whose shadow falling on Dennison would make that pigmy look like a man.\n\n### From Another Angle\n\nThe \"Free Press\" publishes the following just appreciation of agricultural specialist Prautch, but seems to err in thinking that Prautch has been the chief sufferer in not being paid a salary. We desire to interject this idea. The people have been deprived of more than Mr. Prautch has; they have lost possible crops and prosperity.\n\nWe fully concur with the \"Free Press\" as far as it goes and print the editorial to give it wider publicity:\n\n#### Prautch Redivivus\n\n\"A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country. For ten years past a man by the name of Prautch has been dinning into our ears that in spite of the sad fate of Lipa, coffee can be grown in the Philippines and on a large scale with every assurance of success. Now a Mr. Strauss, a practical planter from Java, confirms what Mr. Prautch has been saying. The trouble with Mr. P. is that he was not born in Kansas and can't qualify as a \"boy expert.\" It is not so very long ago that 19,000 was paid Professor Waters from Kansas, who never saw the tropics till he came to the Philippines, to come over and tell us all about the land we live in. It was the old story of what was new was not good and what was good was not new, among the \"new\" being a fairy tale to the effect that locusts take a trip down from the hills once every ten years. And that is just about the length of time that Mr. Prautch has been \"doing his voice-in-the-wilderness stunt.\" But he never got any twelve thousand pesos. No, he is just a prophet, not a professor, and he doesn't hail from Kansas.\"\n\n# Page Five\n\n## Answers To Correspondents\n\n| Name | Response |\n| --- | --- |\n| Burdett | The mistake you made was very natural.

This money represents savings and is also sent in payment of exports from ports in South China for use of Chinese abroad. Such remittances, which from a Banking point of view have the same effect on exchange as exports, always increase at a lower level of exchange, and we find that we get more on one side of our book than we can cover, the consequence being that exchange is automatically forced up until a change takes place, that is, either drawings from abroad on Hongkong fall away or a demand for remittances from Hongkong to gold countries arises sufficient to cover the operations on the other side of the book. The exchange banking business of the Colony is almost entirely buying and selling gold in some form, and exchange is influenced accordingly; if the greater volume is on the buying side, the tendency is for exchange to advance and vice versa.\n\nAt the present moment, it is easier for Banks to buy than to sell gold, and under the circumstances, it is therefore not possible to depress exchange nearer to the gold value of the silver dollar, or rather it would mean undertaking a very considerable risk on the part of a Bank to do so, as it is useless quoting a lower rate of exchange unless a Bank is prepared to make it effective by operating at it.\n\nThe foregoing is exactly the position at the present time. Exchange is about 62% above the silver parity, and so long as there is more gold to be bought than to be sold, there is not much prospect of exchange dropping to silver parity, and premium on notes is likely to continue until such time as the position is remedied either by a considerable advance in the price of silver or a very much larger volume of import business doing. It must be remembered that for all the transactions referred to above, notes are demanded in payment; silver dollars would not be accepted by Merchants.\n\nIt may be asked why we do not take advantage of our powers to continue issuing notes until parity is restored.",

With my wife and my three little children I went to \n\nEurope in exile. I had a good living in Neth. India, I was a \n\nwell-to-do man. We had no Sorrows or cares. All at once this \n\nall ended. A cruel and cowardly Government threw me out of my \n\nsphere without even a judicial process to give her shameful deed \n\nthe appearance of Right. Our life in Europe (mostly in Switzer-\n\nland, Geneva and Zurich) was one series of hardships. We have \n\nknown days, when all money was gone, when there was not to pay our \n\nfood of tomorrow; when we had debts only, debts on all sides. We \n\nhave known days of hunger, when we did not eat, so that there would \n\nbe something for the children. Matsed and embitterment filled my \n\nheart. I avore to ravenge me on a government, that had made us \n\nsuffer undeservedly to such degree and extent. \n\nIn February 1915 all was to an end. I borrowed money, again \n\nfor the 20th time may be, and sent my wife and children back to \n\nJava. She thought to be able to earn something by keeping a \n\nboarding house and by giving lessons.

        "content_text": "# The Hindu in Canada \n## 617 \n\nThe migration of peoples from one part of the world to another is always interesting and especially is this the case with the Hindus of India who in the past settled in Java, Sumatra and other islands of the Indian Archipelago.\n\nThe modern movements of these people constitute a story of absorbing importance. The fact that the Hindus have not emigrated to other parts of the world but have practically remained isolated and unto themselves, gives the movement of the Sikhs to Canada its significance. The Hindus of recent years have moved in batches to South Africa, Australia, the British West Indies, the Straits Settlements and the Far East. To all these countries they go generally from certain well-defined areas. One can almost point with a finger the particular locality on the map from which the emigrants go to these parts of the world. The Hindus who have come to Canada are mostly Sikhs. They are from the Punjab and from a few districts round about Lahore. The density of population there is more than one per acre. They depend almost entirely on agriculture. There are hardly any industries to speak of, and it is primarily because of the overcrowded state of agriculture that the Sikh, who is fond of fresh pastures, goes abroad.\n\nThe first Sikhs to see Canada, I have been told, were those returning to India after the Diamond Jubilee celebration in London. They saw the vast prairies of this great Dominion, which are not unlike the plains of the Punjab. There were the waving crops of wheat, which is raised so well in their own province. It was not till 1904 that a very small number of these hardy men crossed from Hongkong to Vancouver. At first, when they came, it was hard to get work, but as soon as they gained their way, they found plenty to do. Their employers recommended these men to others for their hard-working and steady habits. I have heard of the privations and hardships of these men when they came here first. One case I specially remember: a Sikh newcomer, who lived entirely on potatoes, like our friends the Irishmen, for quite a considerable period.\n\nThere was no organized effort on the part of the Sikhs coming to Canada. It was all spontaneous. These men wrote back to their friends in the Far East about the great opportunities for labor in the Dominion. In China and nearby countries, there is always a steady stream of men from North India who work as policemen, soldiers, and in various other capacities. This class was the next to come. They came in small parties from Hongkong, Shanghai, Manchuria, and the Straits Settlements. They were accustomed to British laws and institutions. Then came the peasant proprietors of the Punjab, who mortgaged the small pieces of land handed down by their ancestors and who staked their all on the great venture.\n\nIt was in the years 1905 to 1908 that most of the Sikhs now domiciled in Canada landed in this country. They were tall and wiry men of fine physique. They came from a cold climate and were used to roughing it, as they say out West.\n\nThe Chinese were the first of the Oriental newcomers; the Japanese were next to follow, and the Sikhs came last of all. In 1907-08, there was a financial panic, and the results were spread far and wide. Work was hard to get, but the Sikhs, by their practical self-denial and helping each other, tided over the hard times. The Chinese, having a Government of their own, are represented by consuls who take care of their interests. The Japanese can protect their nationals abroad, as is known to all. But with the Sikhs, it was otherwise. During the stringency, a great agitation was set on foot against the Orientals. Racial prejudice and passions rose high. Riots occurred against the Chinese and Japanese in 1907, and I have been told of a very anxious night which the Sikhs spent in their meeting house in Vancouver in 1908, when they heard rumors that this wave of fury and passion was to be let loose on them.\n\nThe Dominion Government, through a Royal Commission, paid compensation for damages to property and loss of business and offered apologies to the Chinese and Japanese. The Hindus, who were British subjects, had come to British Columbia in 1907 in only one-third as many numbers as the Japanese, and many of them, according to evidence taken on oath, as a result of the immigration propaganda of certain Canadian interests.\n\nBut somehow a malicious agitation was started against our people. Mis-statements and misrepresentations became the order of the day. The idea seemed to be, when nothing else was on, to start a scare about the Hindu peril. Confidential agents went to British Columbia to look into the trouble on behalf of the Government. Their reports were duly",

        "content_text": "## REFORMS DESIRED\n\n### CANADA AND INDIA\n\nThe first Indian National Congress assembled for business in the Tejpal Samskrit College, Bombay, on December 28th, 1885. The deliberations of the congress were formulated in the shape of resolutions demanding from the administration certain concrete reforms. The first resolution was for a Royal Commission to enquire into the working of the Indian administration. The tribute from India was a heavy drain on the Indian taxpayer. They asked for simultaneous examination for the Indian Civil Service in India and in England. Another resolution reads: \"That this congress considers the reform and expansion of the Supreme and existing Local Legislative Councils by the admission of a considerable proportion of elected members essential, and holds that all budgets should be referred to these Councils for consideration, their members being, moreover, empowered to interpellate the Executive in regard to all branches of the administration.\" These resolutions were sent to the proper quarters.\n\nThe next session of the congress met in Calcutta in Christmas week, 1886, and ever since then they have met every Christmas in nearly all the most important centres of India. The assembly has been presided over by men well-known for their probity and service. The congress movement has drawn to its fold such names as the late Mahadev Govind Ranade, Surendro Nath Banerjea (\"the uncrowned King of Bengal\"), Krishna Kumar Mitra, Motilal Ghosh (editor of the Amrita Bazar Patrika), Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Dadabhai Naoroji, S. Subramania Iyer, Pherozshah Mehta, Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, Lala Lajpat Rai, and the late Gopal Krishna Gokhale, founder of the Servants of India Society.\n\n### INDIA NOT PROPERLY UNDERSTOOD\n\nIn welcoming the second congress in Calcutta, Dr. Rajindralal Mittra, the famous scholar, said: \"We live not under a National Government, but under a foreign bureaucracy; our foreign rulers are foreigners by birth, religion, language, habits, by everything that divides humanity into different sections. They cannot possibly dive into our hearts, they cannot ascertain our wants, our feelings, our aspirations. They may try their best, and I have no reason to doubt that many of our Governors have tried hard to ascertain our feelings and our wants; but owing to their peculiar position they have failed to ascertain them.\"\n\n### BITTER POVERTY OF INDIA\n\nHon. Dadabhai Naoroji, who later on sat in the Imperial House of Commons, was the president of this session. He laid stress on the bitter poverty of India. Mr. D. E. Wacha, who afterwards became secretary of the congress, said that the condition of the ryots, or peasants, had steadily deteriorated since 1848, and that forty millions of people had only one meal a day, and not always that. The main cause is the tribute to Great Britain, exported to fructify there, and swell still further the unparalleled wealth of those distant isles, never in any shape to return here to bless the country from whose soil it was wrung, or the people, the sweat of whose brow it represents.\n\nAnother delegate spoke of the extortion of the revenue authorities.\n\n### INDIA SPEAKS\n\nAnother resolution, and the most important, was moved by Raja Rampal Singh, a well-known public man from North India, appealing to the Government to sanction volunteering. The moral debasement caused by the disarmament of the whole nation, was and is felt acutely. He said: \"We are deeply grateful to the Government for all the good that it has done us, but we cannot be grateful to it when it is, no matter with what best of intentions, doing us a terrible and irreparable injury. We cannot be grateful to it for degrading our natures, for systematically crushing out of us all martial spirit, for converting a race of soldiers and heroes into a timid flock of quill-driving sheep. Thank God, things have not yet gone quite so far as this. There are some of us yet, everywhere, who would be willing to draw sword, and if needful lay down our lives, for hearth and homes, aye, and for the support and maintenance of that Government to which we owe so much. But this is what we are coming to... and when we once come to that, then I think that, despite the glories of the Pax Britannica, despite the noble intentions of Great Britain, despite all the good she may have done or tried to do us, the balance will be against her, and India will have to regret rather than rejoice that she has ever had anything to do with England.\n\n\"This may be strong language, but it is the truth; nothing can ever make amends to a nation for the destruction of its national spirit, and of the capacity to defend itself and the soil from which it springs.\n\n\"High and low, we are losing all knowledge of the use of arms, and with this that spirit of self-reliance which enables a man to dare, which makes men brave, which makes them worthy of the name of men.\n\n\"I might dwell on the fact that in the way the Arms Act is now worked in many localities, the people, their herds, their crops, are wholly at the mercy of the wild beasts. I might dwell on the insult, the injustice, the violation of the most sacred and solemn pledges by England to India, that are involved in the rules that permit Indian Christians, but do not permit Indian Hindus or Mohammedans to volunteer.\" This resolution was carried, and yet 29 years later the Arms Act is still on the Statute Book, and no Hindus or Mohammedans are permitted to defend their hearths and homes. In this connection, it is well to remember that although even in France and Russia the native Algerians and Moslem Russians and others can get commissions in the army and command regiments, no native of India can get a commission or ever join a military college in India, paid for and supported by the taxpayers of India. The congress has passed resolutions every year asking that commissions be granted to Indians, but to no purpose.\n\n### SELF-GOVERNMENT THE GOAL\n\nThe first and foremost plank in the congress is, of course, **Swaraj**, or self-government. Indians are at every step reminded of being a subject race. They want a Government national in spirit and an administration that will feel that India's interests are its first consideration. India wants to be governed by Indians, who will know the real sentiments and desires of the people. The government of the people by the people and for the people is the watchword. If \"Canada for the Canadians\" holds good, why not \"India for the Indians\"! That does not mean hostility to anyone, but it does mean a federated India consisting of various autonomous provinces or States, under one whole. When Indians were harshly treated in South Africa and Canada, things would have been far different if they had some representatives to look after their interests in those countries.\n\n\"No taxation without representation\" is the first commandment in the Englishman's political Bible; how can he falter with his conscience and tax us here, his free and educated fellow-subjects, as if we were dumb sheep or cattle? But we are not dumb any longer. India has found a voice at last in this great congress, and in it, and through it, we call on England to be true to her traditions, her instincts, and herself, and grant us our rights as free-born British citizens.\" So said the famous scholar, Pandit Madan Mohun Malaviya, who long afterwards became one of the founders of the Hindu University of Benares.\n\nAnother plank in the platform of the congress is the separation of judicial and executive functions. In India, the police is the handmaiden of the bureaucracy, and very often the prosecutor and the judge are the same person, and not as in advanced countries, where the two offices are separate. The police, even according to the official class, is not exactly what it ought to be. For carrying out impartial justice, it is absolutely essential that the two functions be not in the same hand.\n\n### SWADESHI AND PROTECTION\n\nThe third great plank is **Swadeshi** or promotion of home-made goods. In Canada, there is the \"Made-in-Canada\" programme, but not so with India. The authorities looked askance at this. Although Indian industries are hampered at every step, e.g., there is a countervailing duty of 3 1/2 per cent on cotton goods manufactured in India herself. (One wonders if there is any country in the wide world which has this curious anomaly of imposing a tax on her own manufactures, and yet this is so in India.)\n\nGerman and Austrian goods were dumped on India's shores. German and Austrian ships, flying the flags of the Central Empires, called regularly at Bombay and other Indian ports, although Indian shipping, which was well-known all over the Orient in the past, has on account of unfair competition been swept away. **Swadeshi** demands that home-made goods be given preference to foreign manufactures, and as the Government of India is not national, the Nationalists, if they had their day, would have protection for India's infant industries, and are trying to do the next best thing, which is promoting the industries of India.\n\n### COMPULSORY EDUCATION ESSENTIAL\n\nThe congress has, through the efforts of the late Mr. Gokhale, passed a resolution demanding free and compulsory education. It seems strange that in a country like India, which has been under British control for over a century, education is not so advanced as in the Philippines, which during the last ten or fifteen years have made wonderful progress under American suzerainty. Even in States like Baroda, which is under an Indian prince, and where there is a purely Indian administration, the system of elementary education has been made free and compulsory both for boys and girls. Why not in India, with all her efficient administration?\n\nThe congress has in most of the Provinces a Provincial Committee, holding a conference every year, where the Nationalist sentiment finds expression. The head offices for the All-India National Congress are at Madras, there being two secretaries, Nawab Sayed Mohammed and Mr. Subba Row. G. A. Natesan & Co., of Madras, have published some interesting literature on the congress. They also issue every year a book giving the proceedings of the congress.\n\n## CANADA AND INDIA\n\n### INDIAN ASPIRATIONS TO-DAY\n\nIn a pamphlet dealing with India and the war, Mr. Bhupendra Nath Basu, ex-member of the Imperial Legislative Council of India and President of the Indian National Congress, held in Madras at Christmas, 1914, writes:\n\n\"There is in India a spirit of frank recognition of the benefits of British rule and of its immense potentialities for good, if carried on under the lead of the British democracy and free from the trammels of constant tutelage, which certain Anglo-Indian administrators would like to impose upon it. Several generations in India were born and lived during the reign of Queen Victoria. To her, as their great Queen and Mother, from whom emanated the great charter of their rights and liberties, the Indian people were passionately attached and devoted. This feeling of personal attachment and devotion has been greatly stimulated and strengthened by the visits to India of members of the Royal Family. They knew how to say and to do the right thing at the right moment, and by their inbred courtesy and geniality of manner, they have helped to soften the atmosphere of aloofness which some British officials, under the erroneous sense of dignity and prestige, at times surround themselves.\n\n### INDIAN DEMAND FOR EDUCATION\n\nThe visit of the King and Queen, as the visible embodiment of sovereignty, and the generous and noble utterances of the King in his various addresses in India, did much to hearten the people in their faith in the ultimate fulfilment of the great Proclamation of Queen Victoria, for hopes deferred had made them falter. The Indian people justly demand a great extension of education among the masses, for it is the foundation of all progress, and the words of the King in his reply to the address of the University of Calcutta have been taken by them as a fresh landmark in the development of education in India. His Majesty said: \"It is my wish that there may be spread over the land a network of schools and colleges, from which will go forth loyal and manly and useful citizens, able to hold their own in the industries and agriculture and all the vocations in life. And it is my wish, too, that the homes of my Indian subjects may be brightened and their labour sweetened by the spread of knowledge with all that follows in its train, a higher level of thought, of comfort, and of health. It is through education that my wish will be fulfilled, and the cause of education in India will ever be close to my heart.\"\n\n### WANTS CITIZENSHIP RIGHTS\n\nThese are precious words to the Indian people as the declaration by the Sovereign of a policy which must be carried out. Great and far-reaching as have been the benefits of British rule in India, it has not yet risen to the full height of the British people in whose name and on whose behalf it is administered, nor of the people, heirs to an ancient civilization, for whose benefit the great Queen asked Divine help to administer her rule. Important questions, such as the right to carry arms, to enlist as volunteers, to enter the commissioned ranks of the Army, the recognition of equal citizenship in British colonies, the better administration of justice, a more equitable participation in the government of the country, still await solution, and India has necessarily felt at times sore and heart-sick; but there never has been any desire to break away. India has definitely set herself to forge ahead.\n\n### WORKING FOR SWARAJ\n\nShe has never doubted. Her heart has been wholly with British rule; the foundations of her faith and loyalty have been too well and firmly laid to be lightly disturbed; all that she desires is that British rule in India should be compatible with the self-respect of her people, growing in education, knowledge, and experience; that it should develop into a rule by the people as part of the British Empire as was foreseen and foretold by the great statesmen who moulded her destinies in the early part of the nineteenth century. And India has been working towards this goal; she realizes it must be a slow and laborious process.\n\n### INDIAN NATIONALISM AND THE WAR\n\nMr. John Matthai, in a recent pamphlet on \"Indian Nationalism and the War,\" says: \"The effect of the war will for the present be confined to the educated class in India, whose importance, however, is not to be measured by their number. It has shown them to be a loyal body, willing to co-operate with the Government. At the same time, it will strengthen the spirit of nationalism among them. The primary cause of the hostile element in the Indian Nationalism is the extent to which Indians are shut out of the higher offices; to remedy this is the immediate necessity. In the meantime, the question of elective Government and the extent of its possible application must be carefully weighed and thought out before any large committal is made. On the positive side, nationalism will be prompted under the influence of the war to devote itself more than before to the condition of the masses. This added sense of social needs will strengthen the desire for security and peace; it will also lead to a deeper cultivation of the ancient spirituality of the race.\n\n\"If these considerations are at all valid, it may be added that there is nothing in them to alarm or to alienate either people. There is much to give hope and confidence to both. There have been things in the past to hurt and wound. They need not have been. But it seems we have decided to forget the things of the past. In the face of the un-speakable tragedy which is enacted before our eyes, in which men of many nations are mingling their blood for a common cause, we can afford to fix our eyes away from the past across this vale of tears, on the love and hope and abiding peace of the future. There was no black and brown and white in the blood which flowed from Calvary. Nor is there in the warm, precious, human blood which flows over the battle-fields of Europe. All of it is red alike, and every drop of it, without distinction of race, betokens the sob of a broken mother-heart. Therefore, while this great elemental struggle is driving us back to a sense of eternal values, let us put back—all of us, both those who won and those who lost, those who laughed and those who wept—let us put back the things that divide and hold fast to the things that bind.\"\n\n### DR. BOSE AT CALCUTTA\n\nDr. Jagdish Chandra Bose, D.Sc., C.S.I., C.I.E., the famous Hindu scientist, has arrived in India after his travels in Europe, America, Japan, and the Far East. The other day, an address of welcome was presented to him at Madura, and recently a reception in his honour was held at the Ram Mohan Library at Calcutta.\n\nInspired by his visits to the ancient universities of India at Taxila, at Nalanda, and at Conjeevram, Dr. Bose had the strongest confidence that India would soon see a revival of those glorious traditions. There will soon rise a Temple of Learning where the teacher, a real sanyasin, would go on with his ceaseless pursuit after truth, and, dying, hand on his work and enthusiasm to his disciples.\n\n### ECONOMIC DANGER IN INDIA\n\nDr. Bose referred especially to the economic danger in India, and the revival of Indian industries cannot be too highly appreciated. That is the question in India to-day. The tocsin of alarm raised by him ought to go straight into the hearts of both the people and the Government. If India is to be saved from the disastrous effects of the increasing poverty, her commerce and industry must be revived. And this is her opportunity now that the great war has driven Germany from her markets.\n\nBut what do we find? Instead of that, Japan has captured all our industrial markets. Dr. Bose assures us that she has made gigantic preparations for that purpose. Within a few decades, she has even surpassed her past master Germany in developing her manufactures and shipping. One of the methods employed by her, Dr. Bose tells us, is to practically exclude all foreign manufactured articles from her soil by prohibitive tariffs. The coast-wise and foreign shipping of India is in alien hands. Japan is more and more encroaching upon this preserve.\n\n### PROTECTION THE RIGHT POLICY\n\nWhy should not the Government of India follow Japan in this respect? It is free trade which has ruined India commercially. It is free trade which is really at the bottom of the economic state, forcing a Sikh from North India to seek his fortune in lands where he is unwelcome. If protective duties had been imposed upon imported articles, India would have long ago become one of the great manufacturing countries of the world, and to which she is rightly entitled, producing as she does such a large variety of raw materials. Germany and Austria would have never made a footing in our markets if free trade principles had not been allowed to rule supreme in India. Java has killed our sugar industry completely. When a small countervailing duty on foreign sugar was levied in India, such a howl was raised against it by the advocates of free trade in England that it had to be given up.\n\n### HINDU MINISTER OF EDUCATION\n\nWhen Sir Sankaram Nair joins the Viceroy's Executive Council this month, the Departments of Education, Local Government, and Sanitation will, for the first time in the history of British India, pass under Indian control. The significance of the event cannot be exaggerated. It is in these three directions that progress is especially demanded at the present moment; and the order in which we have placed the departments exactly represents their respective importance. Not only is the spread of education absolutely necessary to the establishment of a genuine system of local government and to the due understanding of the principles of sanitary science. The very continuance of the British connection depends largely upon the same factor.",

        "content_text": "## GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG. 14th November, 1916.\n\nSir,\n\nI have the honour to enclose a copy of a letter received by the Attorney-General from the Acting local Manager of the Java-China-Japan Lijn; with copies of the three enclosures to that letter. The ships of the Java-China-Japan Lijn fly the Dutch flag. The head office of the Company is at Amsterdam, and the Hongkong Agency is the head office for the Far East.\n\n2. The fact that the goods in question have not yet been paid for, and the fact that they are on board a German ship, tend to raise the presumption that they are still enemy property. It seems desirable to prevent any enemy cargo from being brought forward from enemy ships sheltering in neutral ports, if this object can be properly attained, because even if payment for the goods be not made to the consignors until after the declaration of peace, yet the fact that the goods had reached their destination and that the purchase money was lying in a bank for the consignors' account would probably tend to increase the credit of the enemy during the war.\n\n3. In the case of the Cargo ex *\"Jeanne\"*, *\"Vera\"*, *\"Forsvik\"*, and *\"Albania\"*, which was decided by the Prize Court in England on the 3rd July, 1916, the President was of opinion that \"the neutral ships had been incorporated into the service of the enemy just as much as if the ship, the *\"Neunfels\"*, had got nearer...\n\nTHE RIGHT HONOURABLE  \nANDREW BONAR LAW, M.P.,  \n&c., &c., &c.",

It does not appear that this reasoning would extend to the present case if the goods in question should reach Hongkong in transit on a Dutch ship, and it would therefore seem to be impossible to take any action against the goods in such a case.\n\n4.\n\nThe fact, however, that the agency in the Netherland East Indies is under the control of a person within the jurisdiction of this Colony, and that the Hongkong Agent could prevent the shipment of this cargo by any vessel of the Java-China-Japan-Lijn unless the head office chose to send out orders direct to the agency in question, seems to render it both possible and desirable to refuse permission for the shipment unless for any reason of policy it is considered that permission should be given. I may say that the local agent of this line has apparently acted since the outbreak of war in an entirely proper manner with regard to various restrictions imposed by the Government on account of the war. The cargo referred to in Sir F. H. May's Despatch No. 388 of the 30th October was carried by this line, but the agents might well have supposed that the chartered Bank were acting with the permission of the British Authorities.\n\n5.\n\nI have caused the local agent of the line to be informed that a reply to his enquiry will be sent later on, and I shall be obliged if you will communicate by telegraph your instructions in this matter.\n\nI have the honour to be, Sir,\n\nYour most obedient,\n\nhumble servant,\n\n**Claud Severn**\n\nOfficer Administering the Government.",

The Bills of Lading of the \"Karimoen\" cargo read \"Advise Anglo London Paris National Bank, consignees, Java Japan Line, J.D.

        "content_text": "14\n\n## SECTION 2.-The Netherlands Indies.\n\n### Source of Information\n\nThe information contained in this section has been obtained at interviews with the heads of the principal British merchant houses trading in the Netherlands Indies, and my thanks are especially due to Messrs. Myrtlo, Burt & Co., the largest British distributors of textiles in the islands, for valuable help and advice. Memoranda have been received from the Advisory Committee of British merchants and bankers appointed to assist H.M. Consul-General at Sourabaya with regard to commercial affairs, from the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, and from two or three prominent British merchants and residents in the islands.\n\n### General Description\n\nThe great importance, both political and economic, attaching to the rich and rapidly-developing Dutch Possessions in the East Indies has tended to be somewhat overlooked by the proximity of the Straits Settlements, upon which British attention and aspirations have been largely centred. The natural tendency has been to regard the Dutch Islands as a commercial dependency of the Straits Settlements, and while—in the interests of the Empire—it is highly desirable that the commercial ties uniting the Colony and its great economic dependency should be maintained and strengthened, it is impossible to blink the fact that the dominant feature of the economic development of the Insulinde during the past decade has been the increase in the direct trade, both outwards and inwards, resulting from improved transport services. In this direct intercourse with the world's markets British merchants in the islands have taken no inconsiderable share, and it is from their standpoint, and from that of the British direct shipper, that the following pages are written.\n\nThe Netherlands Indies are divided for administrative and other purposes into the main island of Java (with which is actually associated the island of Madura, although the latter is comparatively unimportant), and the Outer Possessions consisting of Sumatra, Borneo, Celebes, and the smaller islands. The Outer Possessions are far greater than Java as regards area, but are much inferior to that island, both in respect to population and development, although their natural wealth is immense were it only exploited.\n\nThe wonderful island of Java, \"the Garden of the East,\" is the centre of Government, of trade, and of foreign activity. It is the wealthiest, the most civilised, and the most densely peopled, having a population in 1905 of over 30 millions, that is four-fifths of the population of the Dutch East Indies. The three great centres of trade activity are the ports of Batavia, Sourabaya, and Samarang, where the majority of the European merchants reside.\n\nThe subjoined statistics of population illustrate the distribution among the various races, and are taken from the census returns of 1905.\n\nJava and Madura\nOuter Possessions\nGrand total\n\nEuropeans\n563,149\n19,148\n80,910\n\nChinese\n295,193\n268,256\n\nOther Orientals\n29,715,908\n7,304,552\n\nNatives\n29,388\n22,970\n37,020,460\n\nAmbs\n61,917\n2,842\n\nTotal\n30,098,008\n7,619,369\n37,717,377\n\nThe total population at the present time is estimated at 50 millions.\n\n### Position of the Chinese Traders\n\nThroughout the Dutch Indies, precisely as in the Federated Malay States, Burma, Siam, and the Philippines, the Chinese control the avenues of industry and commerce. Arab dealers compete with them to some extent, but these have acquired a somewhat unwholesome reputation for untrustworthiness, and lack of probity. The Chinese possess three important advantages, numbers, wealth, and ability. The value of Chinese property in Java has been estimated at 16,000,000, and there is reason to believe that this figure is well below the mark. The Javanese and the natives of the Islands exhibit the Malay characteristics of apathy and lack of ambition or enterprise. Life is easy for them in a country richly endowed by nature. They can live on a handful of rice and a little fruit, which can be obtained without great effort by the mere fertility of the soil. As their wants are limited to the bare means of subsistence, they prefer to limit their labour, and consequently their rôle is that of the agriculturist. As Java is practically one vast plantation of rice, coffee, sugar-cane, tea, cinchona, and indigo, it will be seen that there is plenty of scope for their patient, plodding labour. The Chinese is the merchant, the banker, the shopkeeper, and the artisan throughout the territory, and his enterprise and ability have secured for him wealth and position.\n\nAs one authority on the islands has written:-\n\n\"What would become of the European and the Dutch Government without the presence of the Chinaman in Java? A hard worker, meditative, mindful of his responsibility, he is the linch-pin of all great public or private enterprises; to the native the necessary intermediary, the obscure but necessary cog-wheel, the middleman, the go-between, whom the European would not and the Japanese could not as yet replace.\"\n\nThe Chinese trader is, in fact, the intermediary between the European merchant in the principal ports and the extensive market which he serves. He brings down the produce from the outer fringes of the archipelago and sells it to the Dutch, British, or German firms in Sourabaya or Batavia, and receives in return European goods which he distributes among his various clients. In this connection it should be noted that there is always considerable competition between the local European merchant and the market in Singapore or Penang, particularly for the produce of the outlying islands.\n\n### Competition with the Straits Settlements\n\nThe large Chinese merchant almost invariably is in close touch with either his own house or else clients in the Straits Settlements, and the decision as to whether he shall sell his produce and buy his manufactured goods in a Java or a Straits port depends mainly on the competitive prices ruling in those markets, and the shipping facilities. Broadly speaking, Singapore and Penang secure a large share of the trade of those portions of the archipelago such as the east coast of Sumatra and Borneo, which are nearer to their doors; and for the rest, it is largely a matter of price and transport facilities. It is noteworthy that while the outward shipments of produce to the Straits Settlements have fully maintained their relative position during the years 1902-1912, the imports from the Straits have steadily decreased, not only relatively but also in actual values, during the same period. This is largely to be attributed to the superior direct shipping facilities provided by the Dutch companies between European ports and Java, which have stimulated the direct import trade, but have not had quite the same effect on the export trade, as the latter is largely with Oriental countries, and is conducted by chartered steamers.\n\n### British Commercial activity in Netherlands India\n\nOne of the most striking features which impresses one in studying the trade of the Netherlands Indies is the paucity of British merchant houses settled in Java and the islands. The total number of British male residents throughout the islands in 1905 was only 312, as compared with 9,480 Dutch (born in Europe), 1,406 Germans, 315 Belgians, and 64,314 half-castes, mainly of Dutch descent. Owing to the influx of British capital to finance rubber estates and tea gardens during the past ten years, the number of British planters have increased, and in 1913 the total British male population of Java alone was 380. This increase, however, is almost entirely among the ranks of the planter class, and the mercantile community has for some years been almost stationary.\n\nThe principal British firm in Java is the powerful house of Maclaine & Co., London, representing Maclaine, Watson & Co., of Batavia; Fraser, Eaton & Co., of Sourabaya; and McNeill & Co., of Samarang. This firm holds exceedingly valuable shipping and insurance agencies, and has a very strong position in the export trade, particularly in sugar. Messrs. Burt, Myrtle & Co. (Myrtle Burt & Co., of Manchester) practically confine themselves to the import trade in textiles, and are the principal British outlet for Manchester goods throughout the islands. They are established at Batavia, Sourabaya, Samarang, and Cheribon, and have admirable facilities for distribution in the less important ports. Messrs. Pitcairn, Syme & Co. (Ker, Bolton & Co., London and Glasgow; Ker & Co., Manila; and Syme & Co., Singapore) do a considerable trade in imports and produce, and are a financially strong firm. There are some half-dozen or so other British merchants on a smaller scale, one or two firms specialising in tea (e.g., Messrs. Harrisons & Crosfield, Ltd.) or in rubber, and this completes the British mercantile community. Branches of both the Chartered Bank of India, Australia, and China, and also the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation are established at the principal ports.\n\n15\n\n604",

        "content_text": "Dutch Competition. The strongest competition encountered in Java, both in goods and also in general mercantile business, is that of Dutch firms. In 1912 the imports from Holland amounted to 11,000,000l. as compared with 5,000,000l. from the United Kingdom, and the figures for the export trade were 13,000,000l. and 2,000,000l. respectively. It should be remembered, however, that a considerable proportion of British imports and exports pass through Singapore. The figures for the British Empire trade with the Dutch islands in 1912 were as follows:--\n\nImports\n\nare able to hold their own in Java, and as the development of the Outer Possessions proceeds, the market is constantly widening. Another favourable circumstance is that as the native's standard of living rises, his demand for coloured and fancy goods tends to increase, and it is precisely in these articles that British manufacturers excel.\n\nThe value of the Netherlands Indies as a market for British cotton piece goods will be realised from the following figures, abstracted from the \"Manchester Chamber of Commerce Record,\" which shows the values of the actual shipments to the territory during the last three pre-war years 1911-1913. These figures are greater than the ones previously given, as they include exports to all the islands—\n\n  \n    Export\n    £\n    £\n  \n  \n    United Kingdom -\n    5,300,000\n    600,000\n  \n  \n    Hong Kong\n    2,300,000\n    1,800,000\n  \n  \n    British India\n    3,100,000\n    4,700,000\n  \n  \n    Straits Settlements\n    6,200,000\n    10,600,000\n  \n  \n    Australia\n    700,000\n    1,100,000\n  \n  \n    Total -\n    15,900,000\n    20,500,000\n  \n  \n    Total trade from all sources\n    33,339,000\n    49,553,000\n  \n  \n    1911.\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    1912.\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    1913.\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    Piece Goods—\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    Grey, unbleached\n    £ 470,498\n    £ 522,096\n  \n  \n    White, bleached\n    913,275\n    762,662\n  \n  \n    Printed\n    1,070,432\n    1,064,628\n  \n  \n    Dyed in the piece\n    635,205\n    695,890\n  \n  \n    Dyed in the yard\n    217,274\n    202,771\n  \n  \n    Total\n    3,306,684\n    3,248,047\n  \n\nN.B. The trade with Hong Kong represents mainly Chinese articles on the import side, and raw sugar for the British Hong Kong refineries as regards exports. The Straits trade is a transit one, but some 60 per cent. of the imports are probably of United Kingdom origin.\n\nThe statistics of imports from and exports to the Netherlands cannot be said to represent Dutch trade alone. As Rotterdam is the nearest shipping point for German and Belgian goods and Germany's inlet for Java produce, much of the trade which appears as Dutch is in reality German.\n\nThe most serious competition which British manufacturers encounter from Holland is in the piece goods trade.\n\n  \n    \n    Value\n    Percentage\n  \n  \n    Cotton Goods :-\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    Unbleached-\n    £\n    \n  \n  \n    Netherlands\n    320,490\n    46\n  \n  \n    United Kingdom\n    383,397\n    ...\n  \n  \n    Other Countries\n    4,682\n    ...\n  \n  \n    Bleached-\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    Netherlands\n    1,385,006\n    64\n  \n  \n    United Kingdom\n    710,203\n    32\n  \n  \n    Other Countries\n    97,825\n    ...\n  \n  \n    Coloured (dyed, printed or woven)—\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    Netherlands\n    650,884\n    31\n  \n  \n    United Kingdom\n    1,289,080\n    61\n  \n  \n    Italy\n    178,794\n    ...\n  \n  \n    ...\n    21,083\n    ...\n  \n  \n    Farns\n    \n    \n  \n  \n    Netherlands\n    79,167\n    16,667\n  \n  \n    United Kingdom\n    262\n    ...\n  \n\nIt will be seen that the competition is particularly keen in bleached goods, but it should be pointed out that a large proportion of the white goods imported from Holland were woven in Lancashire, and sent to Holland in order to obtain the favourite Dutch bleach and finish. The Dutch manufacturers have long made a study of the Java market, and almost invariably consign their goods to their distributors in Java for their own account and risk, the Dutch agent on the spot merely selling on a commission basis. The goods therefore are shipped without being hypothecated to a bank, and the agent is authorised to give credit. The Dutch almost invariably sell their goods to the Chinese dealer on 3-6 months credit, whereas British firms insist on nominal cash (practically 30 days). Notwithstanding this fact, British textiles...\n\nGerman Competition.-German competition is particularly keen throughout the archipelago, not only in German goods but also in the distribution of British goods. The German houses have taken full advantage of the comparative lack of British enterprise in the islands to consolidate their position. During the years 1902-1912 the direct imports from Germany increased from 260,000l. to 1,700,000l., and the exports to Germany from 200,000l. to 1,200,000l. These figures by no means represent the full measure of German activity, inasmuch as, with the exception of piece goods, a great proportion of the shipments to and from Holland are for German account.\n\nThe German houses in Java, which largely outnumber the British firms, are mostly branches of merchants established in Germany. The home firms, largely by reason of facilities received from their local banks, pay cash against delivery of shipping documents for manufactured goods (whether of British or domestic origin). These goods are sent out to the branches of the firm in the Dutch Indies, free from any draft or financial encumbrance, and they are then sold to Chinese or Arab dealers on long credit terms. In exchange for the goods, the dealers tender promissory notes payable at 3, 4, 6, or even 9 months. These promissory notes are discounted by the Dutch banks in Java, and the proceeds are remitted to Germany by telegraphic transfer, usually through the same banks, inasmuch as the Dutch bankers usually bind their clients to confine their exchange business to them as a quid pro quo for the discounting facilities. These facilities enable the German houses to purchase more goods, and so turn over their capital at a rapid rate. The British merchants are much more conservative in their methods of business, and usually insist upon cash in 30 days. In this they are largely governed by the policy of the agencies of the British banks in Java, which are not allowed to discount dealer's promissory notes, and consequently lose the finance of much of the British and other goods imported into the island. In the long run this is undoubtedly the soundest system, as it enables the British houses to give discounts and only to sell to dealers of sound financial standing who are prepared to tender cash in return for a discount. The risks of the credit business are increased by the custom prevailing in Java that when a dealer becomes involved in financial difficulties, the Dutch banks immediately demand payment of his promissory notes, whether the same are due or not. In such cases the German houses are assisted, if necessary, by further advances from their home banks in order to redeem the dishonoured pro-notes. German banks have not as yet opened branches in Java, as the facilities received from the Netherlands Trading Society or other local banking institutions are so liberal.\n\nIt has frequently occurred that, when an Asiatic dealer has been in financial difficulties, one of the German merchants, who happened to be a creditor, would, for a consideration, use his influence with the other creditors to induce them to agree to a compromise. Should, for example, the German merchant be a creditor for 1,000, and a compromise be effected so that the dealer pays 50 per cent. of the claims upon him, the native would probably be willing to pay the sum of 500l. to the German...",

The German house therefore receives 50 per cent. of its claim, say 500, and a further 500l. in return for its services, or, in other words, the claim of 1,000l. is paid in full, Dutch merchants have also been known to take similar action. Such dishonest practices are rendered possible by the fact that long experience has proved to both merchants and bankers the advisability of accepting a compromise rather than place the native in the bankruptcy court, which takes anything from four to six years to wind up a native estate.\n\nThis unsound system of long credits has been the main factor in building up the German trade in the archipelago. It has enabled the local enemy merchant to compete to some extent in the distribution of British piece goods, as he was able to extend his sales to a wide circle of speculative, financially weak dealers, and he relied upon his own acumen and sharp practice, together with the help of his home banks, to extricate himself should financial difficulties arise. The position of the British shipper from Manchester was secured, inasmuch as under the system he received cash against documents in London or Hamburg, but the local British merchant on the spot suffered.\n\n2. The most formidable competition experienced from German houses has been in heavy engineering, machinery, iron, steel, and hardware generally. Germany largely controls the imports of these articles, and British firms, so far, have competed at great disadvantage. In the past 30 years representatives of German sugar machine works have secured a very large portion of the important trade in supplying the equipment of local plants. This has been due partly to the very easy terms of payment allowed, which often extends over several years, but is largely attributable to the fact that the Germans quoted and supplied exactly what the mills required, and their representatives were able to supply many more details than the ordinary British salesman, who had often very little experience, and frequently attempted to force would-be purchasers to take standard patterns and dimensions instead of quoting for local requirements.\n\nA typical case is the celebrated German firm of Orenstein & Koppel, Arthur Koppel, which maintains its own branch in Java, and conducts a large trade in light railways, iron, and steel. This firm frequently delivers from stock one or two locomotives, and has usually some 2,000 to 3,000 tons of rails in its godowns. A large business is done in light railways, bridges, and other supplies for sugar plantations and factories, and these goods are sold on credit at terms extending to as much as five years. The goods are shipped from Germany, free of finance, and remittances are made direct to the Deutsch-Asiatische Bank through their local agents, Messrs. Behn, Meyer & Co. In like manner the agents for Krupps do an immense business in railway material, bridges, iron and steel, &c. Recently their stocks were upwards of 8,000 tons in Sourabaya alone, and they are reputed to have power at any time to undercut in price any local firm desirous of entering into competition. A large trade is handled by the sole agents for Mannesmann tubes, Messrs. Linde, Teves & Co., who have branches at no less than seven ports throughout the islands. The metal and hardware import is largely in the hands of Carl Schlieper & Co., of Remscheid, and is conducted through their Java branch.\n\nBritish manufacturers cannot hope to compete in this business after the war unless they are prepared to adopt an expansive policy, to treat their agents on more liberal terms, and in return to insist on the pushing of their interests throughout the Outer Possessions as well as in Java. They should be prepared to send out expert representatives to adopt a more liberal policy of sample consignments, to revise their catalogues and literature in accordance with the needs of the buyer, and above all they should be prepared to grant credit in cases of large contracts where there is reasonable security, such as is the case in the sugar and other factories. The granting of credit in such cases is on a very different plane to that accorded to unstable dealers in piece goods and sundries. The British Eastern banks have not looked with favour on such schemes in the past, because they are exchange banks pure and simple, and rely upon exchange rather than upon interest for their profits, but this would appear to be a case where a State bank of the nature of that recommended by Lord Faringdon's Committee might be of distinct advantage. With the expansion of tea and rubber cultivation of late years among the islands, the gradual development of the Outer Possessions, and consequent extension of means of communication, the Dutch East Indies are likely to become a still more important market for machinery and plant of all kinds. It is hoped that, after the war, German finance will be very much crippled, and consequently the elaborate system of credit, which has been her mainstay in this important field, will probably require to be curtailed. This will afford an opportunity for British manufacturers to develop their schemes of expansion and at the same time, it is hoped, will remove the more objectionable features of the trade.\n\n3. The control of the import of aniline dyes and synthetic indigo has been used by the Germans as a lever to further the sales of their piece goods and other commodities. The total imports of dyestuffs into Java in 1912 amounted to 250,000oz. This trade, in itself, was a lucrative one for the local German houses, inasmuch as no financial risks were entailed, and very full commissions were granted by the dye manufacturers. The Germans, however, utilised their monopoly to the fullest extent by declining to sell their dyes to the native dealers except in conjunction with sales of textiles or other imported articles. It should be noted that the bulk of the imports of grey and bleached fabrics and yarns into the islands are afterwards dyed by the natives, while for the peculiar process of \"batticking\" (i.e., native printing with wax) a wide range of shades is demanded. The staple trade in textiles is therefore dependent upon an adequate supply of dyestuffs. Native indigo and other vegetable dyes are obtainable at cheap prices; but these cannot compete with the imported synthetic dyestuffs:—\n\n(1) In the case of plain, direct dyeing, by reason of the longer process required;\n\nand\n\n(2) In the case of batticking, on account of the limited range of shades obtainable.\n\nEven with the present exorbitant prices for synthetic dyestuffs, native dyes are only used as a stopgap.\n\nIt is only to be expected that, after the war, Germany will be forced to utilise her superiority in dye production to the greatest advantage, but it is hoped that some alleviation of the situation may be obtained from British dye manufacturers. The two principal colours required in Java are aniline red and indigo.\n\n4. Two distinct features of German trade have been the zeal with which German merchants have stimulated the export of miscellaneous articles of produce, and their readiness to reside and work up a business in the more remote island ports, which are at present in the early stages of development. These characteristics are noticeable throughout all the markets of the Far East. The two forms of activity go hand-in-hand, and are prompted by the following considerations:—\n\n(1) British and other European merchants already control a large share of the trade in the main ports, which are largely developed, and where competition is the keenest.\n\n(2) The undeveloped portions of the various markets offer the greatest field for expansion, and if only an export trade can be secured in their produce, the return trade in imports is bound to follow.\n\n(3) Throughout the Far East it is precisely the miscellaneous articles such as oil-bearing seeds, copra, hides, &c., which have found a ready market on the continent, and the result has been the shifting of the entrepôt trade in these products from London to Hamburg, Rotterdam, and other continental ports.\n\n(4) It is realised that having established a sound trade without serious competition, and by dint of considerable perseverance and endurance—for residence in the undeveloped portions of the Far East entails a lonely life, and the absence of most of the amenities and many of the comforts of civilised existence, and here I speak from considerable personal experience—their position will be sufficiently strong to make a bold bid for the bulk staple trade in the great ports.\n\nThis tendency towards the decentralisation of German efforts to the Outer Possessions has been successfully carried out for some years. A notable example is the case of Macassar, the capital of Celebes, which is rapidly increasing in importance, and is keenly competing with Singapore, particularly in copra. German activities are most noticeable, and these have been stimulated by the excellent service of N.D.L. steamers to Singapore, and by the fact that the German-Australian line made it a port of call in order to attract the direct shipments of produce, and to divert the trade from the Straits. The Dutch are actively co-operating in the development of the more backward islands by a system of improved steamer connections under the flag of the Royal Packet Company. In 1913 there were only three British residents in\n\n19\n\nC% \n\n606",

In view of the large and growing trade, both outwards and homewards, between the United Kingdom and the Dutch East Indies, there should be sufficient scope for a regular weekly service. Such a facility would have a considerable effect in stimulating British mercantile activity in these islands.\n\nThe operation of the International Shipping Conferences, as they existed prior to the war, should never be resumed. The feeling throughout the islands is that they worked to the detriment of British mercantile interests.\n\nLocal mercantile opinion on the subject is somewhat tersely expressed by the Committee of British Merchants and Bankers in Sourabaya appointed to advise H.M. Consul-General on all questions of enemy trading in Java. They write:--\n\n'The shipping rings should be broken, especially those including enemy and Dutch steamship companies, because they cannot be trusted, and are worked to the detriment of British interests.'\n\nInter-island communications, and connections with Singapore and the Straits, were maintained before the war by the steamers of the Dutch Royal Packet Co. and the N.D.L. Both these lines have rendered valuable services in stimulating the development of minor ports, such as Macassar, Padang, Medan, Palembang, Pontianak, and Bandjermasin. In Section I. of this report, the inauguration of British steamship services to take the place of the suspended German steamers has been strongly advocated. In this connection the partner of a leading British house in Java writes:-\n\n\"The establishment of a British steamship service between Singapore and the Dutch East Indies to take the place of the N.D.L. runs to the remoter and smaller ports in Borneo, Celebes, &c. is worth consideration. It is generally believed that the service did not pay the N.D.L., but as the vessels were small, the loss, if any, was probably not great. A British service would not be likely to be conducted as cheaply as a German one, on account of the higher pay which is given on board British steamers, but the maintenance of such a service would tend to minimise German and raise British commercial prestige in these parts, and on that account the enterprise might be worth subsidising, especially having in view the natural trade development which may reasonably be anticipated. Were such a service established, it would be necessary for British shipping lines in the United Kingdom to grant facilities to shippers by the issue of through bills of lading to the outer ports in the island, say Gorontalo, Ternate, &c., with transhipment at Singapore, care being taken that the rate of freight would be of such a competitive nature as would encourage the British shippers to patronise the British line. At present considerable quantities of European goods find their way to far outports from Sourabaya.\"\n\nCustoms Tariff-The Customs Tariff of the Netherlands Indies is a low tariff imposed for revenue purposes, and all nations, including Holland, the mother country, are subjected to exactly the same treatment. Free trade does not exist between Holland and any of the Dutch Colonies.\n\nArticles of food and raw materials are free, and the duties on manufactured goods average 6 per cent. ad valorem. The following are the rates on a few of the more important classes of articles :-\n\n  \n    Tissues and stuffs of cotton, wool and silk\n    6 per cent.\n  \n  \n    All yarns\n    Free.\n  \n  \n    Small wares\n    6 per cent.\n  \n  \n    Iron, steel, and machinery\n    Free.\n  \n\nFinancial Facilities. Branches of the Chartered Bank of India, Australia, and China, and the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation are established at Batavia, Sourabaya, and also in Sumatra, whilst numerous strong Dutch banks operate throughout the islands. The principal of these are the Netherlands Trading Society and the Javasche Bank. The facilities received are quite adequate to the requirements of the ordinary trade in imports and exports and the general agency business. Much more liberal facilities, however, are required in the case of large engineering contracts, the payment on which is frequently deferred until the execution of the contract. In most cases, inasmuch as the work is usually supplied to either the Government, the railways, or reliable estate companies, the security is excellent and the risk small. A British engineer in Java writes:-\n\n\"The usual payments here are three instalments, but in many cases we have been asked to deliver part of the work, and wait until the following year\n\n23\n\nfor our first payment. This has occurred here during the last two weeks; the Government requested us to obtain materials, and stipulated that no payment would be made until January 1917. It thus becomes quite impossible for a small firm to enter into such contracts without the steady backing of a bank.'\n\nBritish engineering interests have been seriously handicapped by the fact that the British Eastern banks have strongly opposed the financing of large contracts over terms of one, two, or three years. The reason for this attitude is plain. The banks are primarily interested in exchange, and wish to turn over their funds rapidly in the purchase and sale of comparatively short-term bills of three to six months sight. The fact remains, however, that further facilities are needed, and if the British banks on the spot decline to reconsider their attitude, this would apparently be a case for action on the part of a State Credit Institution such as is outlined in Lord Faringdon's report.\n\nThere is no doubt whatever that young active business men in the Far East, who start in business on their own account with slender resources, do not receive that paternal help and encouragement from the British banks that is accorded by the German banks to their nationals under similar circumstances. The numbers of energetic British assistants who have opened their own houses in the Netherlands Indies and in the Far East generally during the past decade are alarmingly few. The right men are available, possessed of the requisite ability and the enterprise, but no encouragement is given to them either by their Government or by their banks, and I am convinced that this is one of the greatest handicaps under which British trade in these countries is suffering. It is admitted that there were not sufficient active, steady, and enterprising British houses in the East to cope with the rapid advance of trade during the past few years; still less will they be able to carry out to a successful conclusion that policy of British economic expansion which will be urgently required after the war in order to find markets for the increased production in the United Kingdom. In the national interest it is essential that facilities be given to young Britons of good character, energy and experience to launch out on their own account, and follow the example of those pioneers of British trade in the early days of commercial intercourse in the Far East, whose efforts were the foundation of the great trading companies of to-day.\n\nLocal Taxation. British houses in Java with their head offices in Great Britain have always been handicapped through a double incidence of taxation; that is, they were obliged to pay income tax to the Dutch Government on their profits earned in the Dutch East Indies, and to the British Government on both their home and also their foreign profits. The result has been that some originally British houses have registered as Dutch firms, and have relegated their home offices to the position of mere buying agencies. Many public-spirited firms do not care to do this, but at the same time they wish to draw attention to the relative disadvantage in which they are placed vis-à-vis their Dutch competitors.\n\nThe situation has become much more serious since the outbreak of war. High taxation in Great Britain together with the surrender of excess profits to H.M. Government bearing very heavily indeed on those houses with headquarters in the United Kingdom. Whereas the Dutch manufacturers and merchants are making the same profits as their British rivals, the latter are paying out a considerable proportion in taxation, and the Dutch are building up their reserves and consolidating their position. The relative position of British and Dutch merchants in the Netherlands Indies will be appreciably altered after the war to the disadvantage of the former.\n\nBritish Chambers of Commerce.-British Chambers of Commerce do not exist in the Netherlands Indies, but, since the war, committees, representative of the merchants and bankers, have been elected in the ports to advise H.M. Consul-General on all questions regarding business in general and enemy trading in particular. These bodies have been found to be most useful institutions, and the Sourabaya Committee makes the following recommendation :-\n\n\"The Advisory Committees should be permanent institutions, appointed by the British merchants locally, and one member should retire annually in rotation, his place to be filled at the annual meeting.\"\n\n0 1\n\n608",

What kind of goods you either import from or export to Japan? Please state the names of articles or the sorts of goods.\n\n2. What are the most inconvenient points encountered by you, and how you have suffered in your transactions with merchants or manufacturers? Please express your own opinion as to how to smooth over the difficulty.\n\n3. Please state the mode of transactions, whether F.O.B., C.I.F., &c., prices are fixed.\n\n4. What are the defects found in the goods imported? Kindly detail them.\n\n5. Please institute a comparison regarding making quality and price between goods of Japanese and similar foreign make (especially the difference in comparison with the German and Austrian make). In what way they excel or are found deficient?\n\n6. If you have had to meet with some trouble regarding some particular case, mention your grievances, if possible, in full detail.\n\n7. If there exists some bad feeling, any misunderstanding, or complaint, please mention it without any hesitation. If not, please visit me and give your explanation.\n\n8. If any Japanese article similar to foreign makes be found better in quality, and cheaper in price, but not in consonance with the requirements and taste of the Indian consumers, on account of the lack of knowledge by the Japanese makers, please send samples with your suggestions, which will be forwarded to my Government, if possible, who will do their best to prevail upon manufacturers to accommodate to the idiosyncrasies.\n\n9. Will you favour me with a copy of your contract, showing the nature of terms and clauses on which transactions are entered into.\n\n10. What kinds of articles, you think, will be advisable to import and export to and from India and Japan in the future? Kindly give a list of them.\n\nGENTLEMEN,\n\nTaking advantage of my short stay here, I avail of this opportunity presented to me to make a few observations, and to advise merchants on the following:\n\n(1) Please remember that the Japanese factories are quite capable to manufacture goods of superior quality than hitherto found here from home.\n\n(2) The Government assiduously endeavours to supervise over and control the business integrity of its people.\n\n(3) Should you be desirous of opening new business, please inquire of the Yokohama Specie Bank about the credit and status of a merchant, or otherwise write directly to the following bureau in Japan, who will be pleased to supply the desired information: Shoko-kyoku, Noshomu-Sho, Tokyo, Japan. (Translation: The Bureau of Commerce and Industry in the Department of Agriculture and Commerce, Tokyo, Japan.)\n\n(4) If desired, I shall introduce, so far as I know, some Japanese merchants and manufacturers.\n\n(5) Please remember that your name will be published in the Official Gazette, whereby you will be brought more prominently to the notice of the Japanese merchants, and the name will be permanently on record.\n\n(6) Your reply in English will oblige. If not, vernacular will do. With good wishes for the prosperity of business and increase of mutual felicitous relations between India and Japan.\n\nI remain,\n\nYours faithfully,\n\nCOMMERCIAL AGENT OF THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT.\n\n110\n\n# SECTION 9. Review of the British Shipping Position in the Far East.\n\nSources of Information. The following information is compiled from memoranda received from the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Co., Ltd.; the British India Steam Navigation Co., Ltd.; and the Canadian Pacific Railway Co.; and also as a result of interviews with Mr. R. D. Holt, M.P., of Messrs. Alfred Holt & Co., and Messrs. John Swire & Sons, Managers of the China Navigation Co., Ltd.\n\nThe following brief consideration of the main features of the shipping position in the Far East may be conveniently subdivided under three headings:\n\n(a) The European services.\n\n(b) The trans-Pacific lines.\n\n(c) The coasting trade in the Far East.\n\n(a) The European Services.\n\nPosition before the War. The principal British steamship lines operating regular services between the United Kingdom and Continental ports and the countries of the Far East before the war were the P. & O. S.N. Co.; the Ocean Steamship Co. and the China Mutual S.N. Co., operated by Messrs. Alfred Holt & Co. of Liverpool, and known as the Blue Funnel Line; the Glen Line; the Shire Line; and the Ellerman Line.\n\nThe P. & O. ran a fortnightly service with passengers and mails, changing steamer at Colombo, and also numerous intermediate steamers between London and Japan, calling at principal ports. The Blue Funnel Line were the principal freight carriers, and operated a regular fast weekly service of cargo steamers between British and Continental ports and Singapore, Hong Kong, China and Japan, and also direct steamers to the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines. This line, by reason of its frequent, fast and regular service, its excellent steamers and good management, secured the great bulk of the carrying trade, and was generally regarded among merchants in the Far East as the most satisfactory and businesslike shipping company on the run. Its steamers loaded weekly at Birkenhead and so secured a very large share of the piece goods traffic. The wharves, warehouses, and agency arrangements in the Far East were admirable, and every convenience and facility was offered.\n\nThe Glen, Shire, and Ellerman lines carried a large proportion of the London cargo, but their services were neither as frequent nor as regular as the Blue Funnel Line.\n\nThe competition prior to the war was mainly encountered from the N.D.L., Hamburg Amerika, and Nippon Yusen Kaisha lines in the Straits, Siam, China, and Japan trade; from the Dutch steamers in the Java trade; and from the Messageries Maritimes in the trade of French Indo-China. All these companies, however, were members of the Outward and Homeward Shipping Conferences, and standard rates of freight were maintained.\n\nOn the whole the services were excellent, and the British lines held the predominant position in the trade.\n\nPosition during the War. Since the outbreak of war the services have been reduced, partly by reason of the number of vessels chartered by the Admiralty (in March 1916 the P. & O. Co. state that 30 or more of their vessels have on occasion been under charter to the Admiralty), and partly by submarine losses. German competition has been eliminated, but Japanese competition is likely to prove more serious.\n\nA 2687\n\n654",

        "content_text": "I \n\n116 \n\nI was informed by Mr. Holt (April 10th, 1916) that freight rates for British manufactures on the outward run have been kept at as moderate a figure as possible in order not to strangle our export trade, and that they bear favourable comparison with rates on other shipping routes. As an instance of the advances made, he quoted \n\nSteel to Japan :- Before the war, 32s. 6d. ; rate at 10th April 1916, 47s. 6d. Piece goods to China and Japan :-- Before the war, 45s.; rate at 10th April 1916, 65s. \n\nThe companies point out that there will be a considerable shortage of Allied tonnage at the conclusion of the war owing to the number of vessels sunk by the enemy, and the impossibility of replacing tonnage so lost at the present time. Furthermore, steamers have been worked hard, repairs have been reduced to a minimum, and a great amount of docking and repairing will require to be done, while those vessels which have been chartered by the Admiralty will require to be refitted, and so will not be available for commercial work for some considerable time after the conclusion of hostilities. It is generally supposed, therefore, that the position of British companies as regards tonnage will be weaker at the conclusion of the war than before. \n\nOn the other hand Japanese shipping firms will be in a relatively strong position. Japanese ships have suffered less from submarine warfare than British vessels owing to the fact that they have only one regular line passing through the dangerous zones, and that these steamers have for some time avoided the Suez Canal and the Mediterranean, and have taken the Cape route. The large profits which are being made by Japanese companies during the war are being set aside for new construction, which is being expedited as much as possible. \n\nSuggested Action after the War.-The opinions expressed differ somewhat. Mr. R. D. Holt, M.P., whose opinion as the head of the most important line of freighters to the Far East deserves some consideration, stated that his firm did not desire a subsidy or assistance of any kind, and had no doubt whatever of their ability to maintain their position after the war. He intimated that he thought that the best policy which H.M. Government could follow would be to leave shipowners alone to fight their own battles. He suggested that if an indemnity were imposed on Germany at the end of the war, it might be exacted by taking over the German ships and selling them by auction. In any case he did not consider that German shipping competition would be serious after the war. On the other hand, the P. & O. S.N. Co., Ltd., and the British India S.N. Co., Ltd., which are amalgamated, and directed by a board common to both, make two definite suggestions. They state :- \n\n(1) \"It would seem a reasonable stipulation to be imposed upon the enemy, said to be building commercial tonnage even now, that his ships should be excluded from trading to Allied ports for a certain period after the conclusion of peace. \n\n(2) \n\n\"British shipowners who have lost vessels as the result of submarine warfare, which it cannot be doubted is part of a plan to cripple the commercial interests of this country, should have delivered to them, as part of the compensation, German ships of equivalent tonnage.\" \n\n(b) The Trans-Pacific Lines, \n\nPosition before the War. The principal British lines interested in the trans-Pacific trade before the war were the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, with its fast mail service between Vancouver, Japan and China; the Blue Funnel Line, operating between the Dutch East Indies, Hong Kong and Puget Sound ports; and one or two less regular lines, such as the Dodwell Line and the Bank Line. Exceedingly severe competition was experienced from the Japanese companies. The American Pacific Mail Steamship Company secured a large share of the passenger traffic between the Philippines, China, Japan and San Francisco, \n\nThe principal Japanese lines competing were the Toyo Kisen Kaisha, with its service of new, fast passenger and mail steamers between the Philippines, China, Japan and San Francisco. The Nippon Yusen Kaisha and the Osaka Shosen Kaisha maintained services of cargo steamers between Japan and Seattle. \n\nOn the whole, the trade was fairly equally apportioned between the British, Japanese and American companies, and conditions were quite satisfactory. \n\n117 \n\nPosition during the War.-A combination of circumstances have resulted in the temporary acquirement by Japan of almost a monopoly of the trans-Pacific service. \n\nIn 1915 the U.S. Government passed the La Follette Seamen's Bill, according to the terms of which it was laid down that 75 per cent. of the crews of the vessels entering U.S. ports should speak the language of their officers. Inasmuch as the Pacific Mail Company's steamers were largely manned by Oriental crews this measure dealt a serious blow at their position. White crews were too expensive and were difficult to obtain, and so the net result of this enactment was that the principal American line on the Pacific was forced to sell its steamers and retire from the field, Two or three of the larger vessels were purchased by the Toyo Kisen Kaisha, which company at present has the virtual monopoly of the passenger service between the Philippine Islands and the Mother Country. In the autumn of 1916 the Pacific Mail Company made an attempt to revive their service in a tentative way with three small steamers, but they still find that the obstruction of the American labour unions, supported by the provisions of the Seamen's Bill, interfere with successful operation. \n\nThe Canadian Pacific Railway Co. were not able to take immediate advantage of the position, inasmuch as the large new fast Empress liners were acting as auxiliary cruisers. These vessels, however, have now been restored to their owners, and are once more being run in the service, and it is hoped that some of the more valuable American cargo may be transferred to the Vancouver route. \n\nSince the war, the Dutch-Java-China-Pacific-Lijn have inaugurated a direct service between Java and the Philippines and the United States. As they have been able to secure full cargoes from these markets, very little attention appears to have been paid to the China trade. \n\nThe route to New York via the Panama Canal will also compete seriously in the future with the direct trans-Pacific lines to Vancouver, Seattle and San Francisco. The greater part of this trade is at present in the hands of British shipping, but there is no doubt that the Japanese lines are paying special attention to this route. \n\nI am informed that British interests in the Pacific are now nominally represented \n\nby seven steamers as compared with 27 vessels employed by the Japanese. \n\nThere seems to be little doubt that Japanese mercantile shipping is destined to maintain a predominant position in the Pacific. This appears to be part of the political policy of Japan, and no efforts will be spared by the Japanese Government to consolidate and maintain the position recently acquired. Prior to the war, the Toyo Kisen Kaisha, notwithstanding a subsidy of over 266,000l., was run at a loss, and even in 1915, under favourable circumstances, their net earnings were less than the subsidy received by 86,000l.. All the shipbuilding yards in Japan are now engaged in turning out mercantile vessels, and although they have been somewhat hampered since the war in securing fine steel and other materials from Great Britain the output nevertheless has been considerable. \n\nSuggested Action after the War.-The Manager of the Canadian Pacific Railway Co. at Yokohama makes the following suggestion, in which I entirely concur :- \n\n\"I would urge that, immediately war conditions permit, British shipbuilding yards should be allowed to give preference to the laying down and completion of steamers required for the established trade routes. I have, of course, more especially in view the strengthening of the service between Vancouver and the Orient, where additional tonnage is urgently needed. As it will, however, take some time to build steamers for this purpose, I would, as a temporary measure, suggest using such captured enemy steamers as can be condemned by the Prize Court and can be utilised on the Pacific.\" \n\n(c) The Coasting Trade in the Far East. \n\nThe Straits Settlements, Borneo and Siam.-The coasting trade between Singapore, Siam, and Borneo was before the war practically monopolised by the local steamers of the N.D.L. Since the war, however, a serious attempt has been made by the Straits Shipping Co., backed by the Blue Funnel Line, to capture this trade. Specially constructed steamers have been laid down, and there appears to be little doubt that the traffic will largely remain in British hands after the war, \n\nThe Dutch Islands. The coasting trade among the Dutch islands is virtually monopolised by the Dutch Royal Packet Co., and is likely to remain so after the war. British firms have little opportunity of securing this trade, and so far have refrained from making the attempt. \n\nPage 655\n\nQ 2\n\nPage 660\n\nPage 661\n\n?",

Colonel Thomson said that he had discussed the situation very fully with the members individually of the Committee and the Sub-Committee, particularly as regards the question of bringing under Government control the vessels on the China Coast which remained outside such control.\n\n2. He had read Lieutenant Oldman's report and he regarded it as a very fair review. It was natural that there should be disagreement regarding Lieutenant Oldman's recommendations, but the question of the taking of more vessels from the coast was not at present urgent.\n\n3. He had proposed to the British Government an arrangement by which Dutch ships would take coal and sugar from Java to Calcutta and Rangoon and would ship rice back to Java. He had now received a telegram that this was provisionally approved for individual voyages. If this approval were confirmed, the situation in India would be greatly relieved. There was no intention to exploit the China Coast for the benefit of India. As far as he could foresee, no further vessels would be required from the China Coast for India and Mesopotamia unless certain larger vessels, now on the Bombay-Suez run, were taken to run in home waters; and provided that there was no large increase",

It would seem from a recent incident that the steps taken by the Macao Government regarding the opium for export are not sufficient to ensure that it reaches its legitimate destination. On the 17th May the S.S. \"Amherst\" cleared from Hongkong for Java, and on the 4th June the Macao Government supplied the customary export return, showing that 153,600 taels of prepared opium had been shipped in this vessel for Chile on the 17th May. On the 20th May the \"Amherst\" had put back into Hongkong owing to engine defects, and a careful examination showed that there was no opium on board. The ship sailed again on the 12th July, bound for Fremantle.\n\n8.\n\nOpium boiled by the French monopolies at Saigon and Kwong Chau Wan is smuggled in considerable quantities.

        "content_text": "No seamen or officer of the Seamen's Union in Hongkong shall be banished for any charge, which has no proof.\n\nOn the 27th January, the following telegraphic reply was sent:-\n\n\"For Civil Governor, Canton. Your despatch 26th January. Proposal that Seamen should only be employed through the Union, and agreements should have no effect unless Union has been a witness makes any discussion useless.\" \"Requirements of the Merchant Shipping Law would in any case make it impossible to accept these conditions to say nothing of international questions arising in cases of foreign owned ships.\n\nProposal to arbitrate at Canton cannot in any case be considered.\" \"The ostensible grounds for strike are solely questions of wages.\n\nOwners are still prepared to refer these to arbitration by Board appointed by my Government and suggest that Union should employ delegates to confer with them here to settle preliminaries.\n\nSTUBBS.\n\nBetween the 4th and the 7th February certain Hongkong Guilds came forward with proposals that they should assist in the negotiations with the seamen in Canton, and their offers were at once accepted.\n\nOn the 7th February the following telegraphic correspondence took place:\n\nFrom H.M. Consul-General, Canton, to Governor, Hongkong, dated 7th February.\n\n\"Urgent. Your telegram 4th February. Leaders of movement through Commissioner of Foreign Affairs inform me that they are prepared to proceed to Hongkong to confer with owners on condition that offices of Union reopened again, and on guarantee of freedom from arrest. They state that they are not responsible for intimidation in the Colony, and to appear at a conference as members of an outlawed society would place them in a false position. Please telegraph reply.'\n\nFrom Governor, Hongkong, to H.M. Consul-General, Canton, dated 7th February,\n\nDelegates will be given safe conduct, but Union cannot be re-opened. Point in last sentence need not arise if delegates come as representatives of seamen in Canton and not of Union. Intimidation is undoubtedly rife here, and in Canton and Sheklung. Are the Union authorities, in view of their statement, prepared to issue public repudiation of intimidation and to make it clear that men who wish to return to work need not fear the consequences?\n\nOn the 9th February the shipowners, on the suggestion of the Government, renewed their offer which had been withdrawn on the 18th January; and the Government thereupon issued the following notice in Chinese, emphasising the point that the offer was not finally binding on either side, but was subject to revision by the arbitrators.\n\nAt the suggestion of the Governor, the shipowners are willing to reinstate their former offer of increased wages to take effect from the day on which the seamen return to work. This scale of wages is merely a temporary scale pending arbitration and is on no account to be taken as a basis from which the arbitrators will work. Addition to it or subtraction from it are alike within the sole discretion of the arbitrators. The scale offered is repeated below:-\n\nChinese River Steamers.25%\nOther Chinese Steamers up to 1000 D.W. Tons.- Canton, Hongkong and Macao Steamboat Co.'s Steamers15%\nOther British Companies River Steamers, taking the scale of Canton, Hongkong and Macao Steamboat Co. as base.**25%\n *15%\nCoasting Steamers.\nJava Lines.24%\nPacific Lines.12%\nEuropean Lines7½%\nAustralian Lines.7½%\n10%\n\nIn the meantime the Committee of the Tung Wa Hospital had proposed to the Government that they should use their good offices in bringing about a settlement. Other leading members of the Chinese Community were subsequently associated with them, and on the 8th February the Tung Wa Hospital, as representing the Chinese of the Colony, telegraphed to Canton asking the seamen to send delegates to discuss a settlement with them. The delegates arrived on the 12th February and on the following day at a meeting at the Tung Wa Hospital they declared that they could not carry the matter further until the settlement of the question of the re-opening of the Seamen's Union, which had been closed by the Government on the 1st February as being an unlawful society. The matter was accordingly referred on the 14th February to the Government, who on the 15th February issued a proclamation in Chinese in the following terms:-\n\nOn instructions from the Government, the Secretary for Chinese Affairs has communicated the following decision to the seamen's representatives:--\n\n1. The Seamen's Union was closed because it exceeded its legitimate bounds and broke the law of Hongkong, not because it asked for an increase of wages.\n\n2. The Governor absolutely requires proof of freedom from unlawfulness before he can change his present attitude.\n\n3. If it is desired to give proof of freedom from unlawfulness, all seamen and all workmen whom they involved in the strike must return to work and Hongkong resume its normal condition, before it can be considered that proof of freedom from unlawfulness has been furnished.\n\n4. If all come back to work first on the conditions offered by the shipowners and await the award of the arbitrators, the Governor will cancel the proclamation closing the Union.\"\n\nThe delegates returned to Canton on the 15th February, and they came back to Hongkong on the 17th February with certain suggestions which were considered by the shipowners on the 19th February. The shipowners' decision was conveyed to the delegates on the 20th February by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and the delegates left for Canton on the 21st February. On the 24th February a letter was handed to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs stating that the seamen were not prepared to accept the proposals made.\n\nOn the 22nd February a telegram had been received from H.M. Consul General at Canton, suggesting that there were good grounds for believing that an all-round increase of some 2% on the owners' original offer would be accepted. On the 24th February the Engineers' Society came forward with a similar suggestion and offered to negotiate for a settlement on this basis.\n\nThe Government informed the shipowners of these proposals, and suggested that, as it seemed likely that the offer of such an increase would bring the men back immediately to work and would prevent a general strike, it would be wise to add some 2% to the figures shown in the notice of the 9th February which is quoted above. That notice still stood. It pointed out clearly that the shipowners' offer covered only the immediate present, and that the scale would be increased or lowered in the sole discretion of the arbitrators. The shipowners added 2¼% to their previous figures, and on the 24th February this information was telegraphed to Canton and was communicated to the Engineers' Guild. The seamen refused the new terms.\n\nOn the 28th February, H.M. Consul-General telegraphed that he had information to the effect that, if a meeting between the shipowners and the seamen's delegates could be arranged, there was every prospect of a settlement. On the 1st March a reply was sent by the Hongkong Government that the shipowners were willing to meet the seamen's delegates. It was added that, in order to avoid further abortive proceedings, the Government considered it to be highly desirable that the delegates should be fully empowered to make a settlement.",

Beyond a few\n\norderly processions there was no demonstration on the part of the returning seamen and coolies, who were obviously delighted to get back to work.\n\n22.\n\nThere are certain outstanding features. The\n\nstrike emphasised the absolute dependence of the Colony\n\nupon Canton and the immense harm that must accrue to it\n\nfrom an organised boycott. It showed the danger of over-\n\nreliance upon cheap coolie labour, with no sort of stake or\n\ninterest to tie it to the Colony, able at a moment's notice\n\nto disappear back into China whence it came. It brought\n\nagain into prominence the difficulties, experienced once\n\nbefore in the engineers' strike, of getting a grip of the\n\nsituation when a whole body of labour removes itself out of the Colony back to its native land, where it is maintained and supported with the connivance of Government authority. A most salient point was the extraordinary intimidation by word of mouth, almost entirely unaccompanied by violence, which brought out Chinese labour like a flock of frightened sheep. The Chinese members of the Legislative Council kept their houses in abject terror of their lives, and they and the rest of the leading Chinese gave not the smallest assistance, either in putting heart into their compatriots, or in giving the Government the slightest clue to the methods by which the terror was spread.\n\n20.\n\nThe following documents are attached:-\n\n(A).

        "content_text": "No seamen or officer of the Seamen's Union in Hongkong shall be banished for any charge, which has no proof.\n\nOn the 27th January, the following telegraphic reply was sent :-\n\n\"For Civil Governor, Canton. Your despatch 26th January. Proposal that Seamen should only be employed through the Union, and agreements should have no effect unless Union has been a witness makes any discussion useless.\" \"Requirements of the Merchant Shipping Law would in any case make it impossible to accept these conditions to say nothing of international questions arising in cases of foreign owned ships.\"\n\n\"Proposal to arbitrate at Canton cannot in any case be considered.\"\n\nThe ostensible grounds for strike are solely questions of wages. Owners are still prepared to refer these to arbitration by Board appointed by my Government and suggest that Union should employ delegates to confer with them here to settle preliminaries.\"\n\nSTUBBS.\n\nBetween the 4th and the 7th February certain Hongkong Guilds came forward with proposals that they should assist in the negotiations with the seamen in Canton, and their offers were at once accepted.\n\nOn the 7th February the following telegraphic correspondence took place :-\n\nFrom H.M. Consul-General, Canton, to Governor, Hongkong, dated 7th February.\n\n\"Urgent. Your telegram 4th February. Leaders of movement through Commissioner of Foreign Affairs inform me that they are prepared to proceed to Hongkong to confer with owners on condition that offices of Union be opened again, and on guarantee of freedom from arrest. They state that they are not responsible for intimidation in the Colony, and to appear at a conference as members of an outlawed society would place them in a false position. Please telegraph reply.'\n\nFrom Governor, Hongkong, to H.M. Consul-General, Canton, dated 7th February.\n\nDelegates will be given safe conduct, but Union cannot be re-opened. Point in last sentence need not arise if delegates come as representatives of seamen in Canton and not of Union. Intimidation is undoubtedly rife here, and in Canton and Sheklung. Are the Union authorities, in view of their statement, prepared to issue public repudiation of intimidation and to make it clear that men who wish to return to work need not fear the consequences?\"\n\nOn the 9th February the shipowners, on the suggestion of the Government, renewed their offer which had been withdrawn on the 18th January; and the Government thereupon issued the following notice in Chinese, emphasising the point that the offer was not finally binding on either side, but was subject to revision by the arbitrators.\n\n\"At the suggestion of the Governor, the shipowners are willing to reinstate their former offer of increased wages to take effect from the day on which the seamen return to work. This scale of wages is merely a temporary scale pending arbitration and is on no account to be taken as a basis from which the arbitrators will work. Addition to it or subtraction from it are alike within the sole discretion of the arbitrators. The scale offered is repeated below:-\n\n  \n    Chinese River Steamers.\n    -\n    25%\n  \n  \n    Other Chinese Steamers up to 1000 D.W. Tons.\n    -\n    25%\n  \n  \n    Canton, Hongkong and Macao Steamboat Co.'s Steamers.\n    -\n    15%\n  \n  \n    Other British Companies River Steamers, taking the scale of Canton, Hongkong and Macao Steamboat Co. as base.\n    -\n    15%\n  \n  \n    Coasting Steamers.\n    -\n    12%\n  \n  \n    Java Lines.\n    -\n    74%\n  \n  \n    Pacific Lines.\n    -\n    71%\n    7+%\n\n  \n  \n    European Lines\n    -\n    10%\n  \n  \n    Australian Lines.\n    414\n  \n\nIn the meantime the Committee of the Tung Wa Hospital had proposed to the Government that they should use their good offices in bringing about a settlement. Other leading members of the Chinese Community were subsequently associated with them, and on the 8th February the Tung Wa Hospital, as representing the Chinese of the Colony, telegraphed to Canton asking the seamen to send delegates to discuss a settlement with them. The delegates arrived on the 12th February and on the following day at a meeting at the Tung Wa Hospital they declared that they could not carry the matter further until the settlement of the question of the re-opening of the Seamen's Union, which had been closed by the Government on the 1st February as being an unlawful society. The matter was accordingly referred on the 14th February to the Government, who on the 15th February issued a proclamation in Chinese in the following terms :--\n\n\"On instructions from the Government, the Secretary for Chinese Affairs has communicated the following decision to the seamen's representatives :--\n\nI. The Seamen's Union was closed because it exceeded its legitimate bounds and broke the law of Hongkong, not because it asked for an increase of wages.\n\n2. The Governor absolutely requires proof of freedom from unlawfulness before he can change his present attitude.\n\n3. If it is desired to give proof of freedom from unlawfulness, all seamen and all workmen whom they involved in the strike must return to work and Hongkong resume its normal condition, before it can be considered that proof of freedom from unlawfulness has been furnished.\n\n4. If all come back to work first on the conditions offered by the shipowners and await the award of the arbitrators, the Governor will cancel the proclamation closing the Union.\"\n\nThe delegates returned to Canton on the 15th February, and they came back to Hongkong on the 17th February with certain suggestions which were considered by the shipowners on the 19th February. The shipowners' decision was conveyed to the delegates on the 20th February by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and the delegates left for Canton on the 21st February. On the 24th February a letter was handed to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs stating that the seamen were not prepared to accept the proposals made.\n\nOn the 22 February a telegram had been received from H.M. Consul-General at Canton, suggesting that there were good grounds for believing that an all-round increase of some 2% on the owners' original offer would be accepted. On the 24th February the Engineers' Society came forward with a similar suggestion and offered to negotiate for a settlement on this basis.\n\nThe Government informed the shipowners of these proposals, and suggested that, as it seemed likely that the offer of such an increase would bring the men back immediately to work and would prevent a general strike, it would be wise to add some 2% to the figures shown in the notice of the 9th February which is quoted above. That notice still stood. It pointed out clearly that the ship-owners' offer covered only the immediate present, and that the scale would be increased or lowered in the sole discretion of the arbitrators. The shipowners added 2½% to their previous figures, and on the 24th February this information was telegraphed to Canton and was communicated to the Engineers' Guild. The seamen refused the new terms,\n\nOn the 28th February, H.M. Consul-General telegraphed that he had information to the effect that, if a meeting between the shipowners and the seamen's delegates could be arranged, there was every prospect of a settlement. On the 1st March a reply was sent by the Hongkong Government that the shipowners were willing to meet the seamen's delegates. It was added that, in order to avoid further abortive proceedings, the Government considered it to be highly desirable that the delegates should be fully empowered to make a settlement.",

The white-coated man pushed forward, waving a stick and shouting \"Go on, hit him, hit him:\" The second man, in the brown suit, was shouting in the same way. I did not notice whether he had a stick; he was behind. This man's motion caused a greater uproar amongst the mob and there was waving of sticks, umbrellas and hats and cries of various kinds. I decided to try and get the white-coated man out of the crowd. I could see I was losing control of the crowd, and if we got rid of these two men I thought we might still hold on. The white-coated man was then just in front of me. I leaned forward and grabbed him with my left hand, meaning to pass him to Sub-Inspector Pitt who was just at my right hand. The object was to get this man's influence out of the crowd. As I grabbed him there was a rush forward of the crowd and renewed shouts.\n\nHis Worship, Had you up to this said anything to the crowd about firing?\n\nMr. King. I certainly had. During my three minutes conversation with the mob, and towards the end of it when they began to press further, I said \"If you do not go back I shall order these soldiers (pointing to them) to fire\".\n\nHis Worship, The soldiers could be seen by the crowd?\n\nMr. King. Oh, yes. They were then about 110 yards away.\n\nHis Worship, How many times did you say that?\n\nMr. King, I said it more than once: at least three times and the last time I said, \"This is the literal truth\". The reply was \"Go. We will go. We will die here.\n\nHis Worship. All this was said before you grabbed the man in white?\n\nMr. King. Yes.\n\nContinuing, The front rank surged past me and between me and the prisoner who was struggling.\n\nHis Worship. Did they strike you?\n\n+\n\n4",

These were the precautions that Mr. King\n\ntook, and I go further and say he could not be expected to think that\n\nmere precautions than these were necessary to deal with this assembly.\n\nBefore we get to the actual facts there is another point of view\n\nto be considered. What was Mr. King's intention? What did he intend\n\nto do? It is of vital importance in considering whether the shooting\n\nwas reasonable or not. Were the intentions reasonable? We knew the\n\nintentions were frustrated through no fault of his own. The intention\n\nwas to round up the mob and take them back to Kowloon under an escort\n\nwith fixed bayonets. To carry out this intention Sergeant Mason\n\nwas placed in the rear and the soldiers in motor 'buses were sent\n\non ahead to hold up the mob. I suggest that these intentions were\n\nreasonable intentions and what one would expect Mr. King to do. I\n\nthink a reasonable man would go further and say that this ought to have\n\nbeen sufficient to deal with this trouble. Mr. King says, in his\n\nopinion, these plans would have sufficed, but most unfortunately the so\n\nintentions were frustrated by circumstances over which Mr. King had\n\nno control and which he could not reasonably foresee. He could not\n\nreasonably foresee that the buses could not take the soldiers up\n\nthe hill or that they would break down. I think the whole scheme\n\nwas a most excellent scheme and would have proved entirely\n\nsuccessful if not frustrated by the breaking down of the buses about\n\nhalf way up the hill.\n\nThe next heading we may proceed to is what warnings did\n\nthis assembly receive before the actual shooting took place; in other words did the assembly act as reasonable men or did they not. What do we know? We know a first warning was received at the Po Hing\n\ntheatre. A Chinese detective was there and saw a man go round these assemblies not to go, that they would not be\n\nmarches",

        "content_text": "36\n\nMarch 95th, 1929.)\n\nHONGKONG TRADE,\n\nEFFECT OF STRIKE SETTLEMENT.\n\nThe fortnightly price current market report, published by the Hong-kong General Chamber of Commerce, states:\n\nCotton Piece Goods and Fancy Cotton Goods.-The termination of strikes brought about a welcome resumption of routine business and clearances have been on a liberal scale. Local rates for Greys and Whites are hopelessly below Manchester parities but some sales of Fancies are reported on satisfactory terms. Manchester reports a considerable enquiry for India and that prices are advancing.\n\nCHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT\n\nSHANGHAI TRADE.\n\nMessrs. Ilbert & Co.'s, piece goods market report, says:-\n\nOnce again we have to report a disappointingly poor week's trading and, were it not for the fact that clearances continue to be moderately good, there would be little or no sign of vitality in the market.\n\nValues are a shade easier all round with no demand to support them. The only explanation that can be given of the present stagnation is the general state of uneasiness and lack of confidence prevailing throughout the interior, to which there can be no real termination as long as the military-politicians are free to work their wills against the good of the country.\n\nYarn. A quiet fortnight has elapsed as dealers are waiting for conditions and prices to become more stabilised. Latterly values ruled easier owing to a few forced sales. There is some hope that trade with Southern Ports may revive shortly now that agitation at Amoy and the general strike at Hongkong are over. Our most important outlets, however, such as Hankow and Szechwan, are doing practically no trade at all although the latter was reported as buying fair quantities of local cotton yarn up to a day or so ago.\n\nQuotations are:-No. 10s. $158 to $192. No. 12s. $173 to $200. No. 16s. $195 to $225. No. 20s. $200 to 225. Arrivals nil. Shipment's nil. Sales 1,000 bales. Unsold, 4,500 bales. Bargains 9,000 bales.\n\nWoollens. No fresh business of importance has been booked, the low exchange putting prices further out. Clearances are better but considerable stocks will have to be carried to next season.\n\nBIG HARBOUR FOR FENGTIEN.\n\n327\n\nEXCHANGE VALUE OF THE TICAL.\n\nEFFECT ON RICE AND TEAK INDUSTRIES.\n\nThe Report on the Commercial Situation in Siam at the close of the third quarter 1921, by Mr. J. Crosby, C.I.E., O.B.E., H.B.M. Acting Consul-General contains the following note on the Exchange outlook:-\n\nExporters have been inclined to regard with misgiving the continuance of the present high exchange value of the Tical, which is militating especially against the teak industry, and which was at one time thought to be endangering the rice trade also.\n\nAfter the removal of the embargo on the export of rice at the close of January, 1921, the anticipated revival was not immediately forthcoming, and it was felt that Siam rice was being handicapped by its high price in its competition with the product of adjacent countries.\n\nBut the diversion of the greater portion of the Burma crop for the needs of India subsequently effected a welcome change in the situation. A brisk demand sprang up for Siam rice and the exchange difficulty for the moment ceased to be a pressing one.\n\nSo long as this state of affairs lasts, that is to say, so long as the country can go on selling its surplus production of rice at remunerative Tical prices, there would seem to be no reason for lowering the value of the local unit of currency.\n\nIt is learnt from an authoritative source that the construction of a harbour in Fengtien Province, which has been under consideration for many years past, has been resolved upon and that work will be commenced before long.\n\nThe cost of the work is estimated at $10,000,000, to be defrayed by both the Fengtien Province and the Ministry of Communications. The work will be spread over the next seven years.\n\nContractors from Japan, Great Britain, the United States and Netherlands will be invited to make their tenders in April of the present year.\n\nFlour Market Report.-Stock: About 2,000,000 sacks. Quotations:-American Patent $3.80 per sack; American Straight $3.10 per sack; American Cut-off, $3.15 per sack; Shanghai Flour, $3.25 per sack; Australian No. 1 $3.20 per sack.\n\nThe plan for the harbour is on an extremely large scale, comprising more nearly to its statutory figure of 1s. 8d. In the meantime, business, with India in especial is suffering heavily owing to the low sterling value of the rupee.\n\nRaw Cottons. No fresh business has been recorded. Values are nominally unaltered as follow:-Indian descriptions at $23 to $29. Chinese descriptions at $28 to $35 per picul.\n\nMetals. Market remains quiet. Small business has been done in M.S. Bars at $5.25 to $5.40. There has also been some business in Nails. There has been a fair quantity of metals over-carried, it should not take long to get these parcels cleared, as soon as these goods are returned.\n\nSundries.-In anticipation of heavy arrivals, the market is inclined to be weakish although stock holders have not shown any eagerness to sell under the quotations.\n\nIt is rumoured that a large quantity of glass destined for Hongkong has been over-carried to Shanghai on account of the strike at this port.\n\nTHE LUCK OF THE GAMBLE.\n\nTeak exporters are badly hit by the ruling high exchange value of the Tical. The large lessees of teak forests are either rupee or sterling companies and (the rupee having fallen rapidly during 1920) they have all suffered from the raising of the Siamese currency unit to its present figure.\n\nTo take one instance alone: royalty and duty on logs are collected in local currency and, expressed in terms of sterling, have been increased automatically by more than 41 per cent. as a consequence of the rise in exchange.\n\nReceipt from local sales of logs offset this increase only to a very small extent.\n\nThe Compagnie de Commerce & de Navigation d'Extrême Orient, in their report dated Saigon, March 14th, state:-\n\nOur market continues very dull. Some business has been closed with Europe, but there are no transactions to report with the Far Eastern market.\n\nSAIGON RICE MARKET.\n\nThe end of the strike at Hongkong has resulted on this side in a sudden rise of the prices.\n\nSo far it has been stated that the supply of rice will be sufficient after discharging the numerous steamers lying in Hongkong harbour, and the position of the rice market here tends to become more and more normal.\n\nThe total amount of rice exported from January 1st up to February 28th is 168,002 tons against 151,438 in 1921.\n\nWe quote to-day-White Saigon rice. No. 2 sifted. Japan quality, Hongkong $8.40 per picul f.o.b. Saigon for March-April shipment.\n\nThe Chinese Merchants Bank, Ltd. whose head office is in Alexandra Buildings, Chater Road, opened a branch office in Shanghai on March 22nd.\n\nTREATMENT OF MALARIA,\n\nTHE USE OF CINCHONA F. TO BE INTRODUCED.\n\nAccording to a practical experiment carried out at Kuala Lumpur by Dr. Fletcher, he is satisfied that Java cinchona febrifuge is quite as good as Quinine and costs only a quarter the price of the latter.\n\nDr. Malcolm Watson's opinion is that, while cinchona febrifuge is quite as good as quinine for all ordinary fever cases and precautionary doses against fever, yet, in acute cases, where the patient is dangerously ill, quinine is preferred.\n\nThere is a story of a visitor who, studying the nameboards, remarked: \"Hill on The Hawk. Well, two days ago I shot a hawk on a hill, so here goes.\"\n\nDrawing $5 and less than a dollar's worth of small change for his investment of $5 he was not so very much impressed with novices' luck.\n\nBut a better one is told of Kiangwan last Saturday and a well-known marine engineer vouches for the veracity of it.\n\nA party of sailors, having scraped up $10 between them, could not decide which pony to follow.\n\nSuddenly one said \"Lumme. Nelson, of course! Nelson ain't never lost!\" On went the money and the drawing close upon $800.\n\nThe loyal bluejackets had the satisfaction of drawing close upon $800.\n\nNothing has come to hand about Baycroft except that a lady, who had two of the seven tickets taken on the $1,100 winner, immediately on noting the dividend rushed up to a broker friend and gasped: \"Oh, do tell me what is the latest exchange rate.\"\n\nDrs. Fletcher and Quaife's experience shows that even in acute cases one is as good as the other.\n\nWhen the present supply of quinine for free distribution is exhausted, the Government will order a supply of cinchona febrifuge from Bandoeng.",

(Mr. S. M. Churn), Wicking, Harry & Co. (Mr. J. Owen Hughes).\n\nCHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT\n\nIntroducing a discussion on a standard form of fancy piece goods contract, the CHAIRMAN read the proposed form, which was as follows:-\n\n(1.) \"Not more than four months clearance including free godown, insurance, etc., will be allowed from date of arrival or sale from stock after which date the buyer shall pay 1 per cent. per month which shall cover interest, godown, insurance and all charges, but the seller's rights on buyer's failure to perform his obligation at due date of clearance shall be wholly unaffected by the provision for payment of the 1 per cent. hereinbefore contained. This clause shall not be varied or affected in any way by Chinese or other characters written or chopped on it by any person purporting to be acting on behalf of either party.\"\n\n(2.) Sellers are not responsible for delay in shipment or non-fulfilment of contract if occasioned by Strikes, Fire, Floods, War or Civil commotions, or any other circumstances beyond their control, and the certificate of any British Chamber of Commerce or other representative Trade Corporation as to the cause of delay in shipment or non-fulfilment of contract shall be conclusive evidence thereof.\n\n(3.) Any dispute regarding quality, shade, finish, design, packing, etc., not settled amicably shall be referred to arbitrators to be appointed by the Hongkong General Chamber of Commerce.\n\n(4.) Any goods not taken delivery of within the time specified shall remain at buyer's risk in every respect.\n\n(5.) No terms of this contract other than those expressed in the English language shall affect or be binding on the sellers.\n\n229\n\nThe CHAIRMAN: I think the idea is that it should replace the old contract.\n\nMr. COUSLAND asked that if a contract for goods was made and the shipments were spread over three months, and the last shipment did not arrive in time, could the buyer turn round and refuse to accept the goods? They had had cases taken to Court upon the point and personally he felt rather aggrieved about it. It came under the Sales and Goods Act.\n\nMr. VAN ANDEL said he had compared the present form with the old one and found a good many differences. There were two clauses in the old contract which were missed entirely in the proposed one, and he thought it advisable that they should be inserted. The one referred to the question of shades. A couple of years ago they were told by Manchester that they could not expect the exact imitation of old shades of samples, and so far as he knew that had not yet been withdrawn. He thought importers should be protected against deviation. The other addition referred to clause 3. He suggested it should be added that when the goods arrived in the market in an imperfect state buyers should take delivery, and any dispute with regard to quality, shade, etc., should be referred to arbitration. He thought that was the custom in the Colony.\n\nMr. PLUMMER (as Chairman of the Sub-Committee) said the sub-committee had very carefully considered the very large number of contracts which were at present used in the Colony by various importers, and it was quite impossible to cover everything which some importers desired. As to Mr. Cousland's point, if any portion of the goods were late through unforeseen causes they were covered by common law. If they were late from some cause for which they were responsible, then he was afraid they had to accept the responsibility.\n\nMr. COUSLAND: Only for the late portion. Legally, they are entitled to throw back the whole of the goods.\n\nMr. PLUMMER said that, with regard to the question of a slight deviation in shade, they could refer the matter to the Chamber of Commerce for arbitration.\n\nMr. VAN ANDEL said that one of the reasons why he mentioned the matter was to see whether the Piece Goods Sub-Committee had considered it.\n\nMr. COUSLAND remarked that in any sale contract with Manchester they had the clause inserted that late delivery of one portion of the contract did not affect the others.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN, proceeding, said that the reasons why the proposed contract had been brought forward were familiar to all of them and did not need either advocacy or discussion by him as Chairman. That there was a genuine need for a standard form of contract which should be adopted and adhered to by all importing members of the Chamber was common knowledge, common ground and common agreement. He would like to say most emphatically that it was not the slightest use adopting the contract which had been suggested, either in its present form or amended, if they chose by show of hands that afternoon to amend it, unless those who adopted it prepared rigidly to adhere to it. (Hear, hear). He said that advisedly, because there had been cases reported to the Committee of the past contract, which had been in force for some considerable time, being partially, if not wholly, ignored by some members of the Chamber, who subscribed to it.\n\nIt might be that the reports were false. He formally moved the adoption of the Committee's recommendations as to the local standard form of fancy piece goods.\n\nMr. J. L. PLUMMER seconded.\n\nMr. COUSLAND asked whether it was proposed that the clauses should simply be added to the old contract, or were to be considered to be the entire terms of the contract. If the latter, he was afraid there were one or two legal points which had been left out.\n\nThe CHAIRMAN suggested that points raised by Mr. Cousland and Mr. Van Andel would be covered if clause 3 were altered to read as follows:- \"Any dispute regarding quality, shade, finish, design, packing, delivery, late shipment or non-fulfilment of contract, etc., not settled amicably, shall be referred to arbitrators to be appointed by the Hongkong General Chamber of Commerce and their finding shall be binding on both parties.\"\n\nMr. COUSLAND suggested the addition of the following clause:- \"Late or non-arrival of one or more lots not to affect other shipments under this contract.\"\n\nThe CHAIRMAN announced that the suggestion would be accepted, as part of clause 3, or would be drafted in another clause.\n\nThe additions mentioned by the Chairman and Mr. Cousland were agreed to, and the proposed contract, as amended, was unanimously approved by the meeting.",

(c)-All sewage on the Western side of Kowloon Peninsula should be diverted to outfalls at Kowloon Point and North of the Cosmopolitan Dock.\n\n10. As our recommendations do involve the supply of Salt Water, the question of \"the provision of suitable pipes\" does not arise.\n\nT. L. PERKINS, Chairman. L. GIBBS. R. M. HENDERSON. C.E. WARREN.\n\nJuly 9th, 1921.\n\n6. The City and Peak Water Supply has about reached the limit of its capacity. It is suggested that the cost of this should be met by an additional rate in the districts concerned, each district being first given the option to decide by vote whether or no it will adopt a Water Carriage System with the proposed Water Carriage Services to the Peak and Middle Levels.\n\nThe present supply (1920) is fully 7 million gallons a day. The water required for the Peak and Middle Levels amounts to 5 and 22 million gallons a year, respectively. One inch of water on an acre amounts to 22,000 gallons. In the driest recorded year at least 20 inches of rain can be collected in Hongkong, so that the above amounts can be collected respectively from 12 and 50 acres.\n\nThe present gathering ground of the City and Hill District Water Works amounts to 2,561 acres. There is however an area of about 2,600 acres in the neighbourhood of Taitam which is available for catchment and which may be reckoned on to increase the supply (without further reservoirs) from its present figure of 7 millions to 10 millions a day. A catchwater to intercept the water from about 300 acres of the above 2,600 acres at a cost of $70,000 is now in contemplation; this will provide an additional supply of at least 130 million gallons a year and will take no longer to carry out than the works necessary for supplying at a much greater cost ($417,000) 27 million gallons of Salt Water a year.\n\n(b)-Peak District.\n\nThe sanitary advantage to the Peak owing to its scattered location and the long carry for fæcal matter, is so great and the amount of water required is so small that a Public Water Carriage System using fresh water might with advantage be adopted there as soon as the necessary additions to the Peak pumping plant, now on order, are installed.\n\n(c)-Middle Levels.\n\nIn the Middle Levels the amount of water required is a more serious matter and the sanitary advantage less, and it seems that a Public Water Carriage System using fresh water should remain in abeyance there till an adequate extension of the Taitam gathering ground has been put in hand.\n\n7.-The Kowloon Works will produce 1.7 million gallons a day in the driest recorded year and can be considerably extended at a comparatively small cost. The present supply is about 1.3 million gallons a day. The Water Supply in Kowloon is therefore still fairly ahead of present requirements, but in view of the rapid growth of the district a Water Carriage System using fresh water should not be installed until extensions of the present Water Works are put in hand.\n\nGeneral.\n\n6-The time may come when the limit of the fresh water resources of the Colony has been so nearly reached that it will be more economical to obtain a supply of Salt Water than to obtain an equal additional supply of fresh water, but it does not appear that that time has yet arrived, and no works which may be carried out now for the use of fresh water will in any way interfere with the use of Salt Water when its use is found to be more economical.\n\n9.-Some alterations to the sewerage system in each of the three districts will be desirable. After perusing the six reports (Annexes 5-10) received from Mr. Newhouse, we have come to the following conclusions:-\n\n(a)-The drainage of the Peak District should be diverted to an outfall on the South side of the Island.\n\nHONGKONG\n\nBOOK-KEEPER'S SHARP SENTENCE.\n\nPROCEEDINGS IN MACAO.\n\nCarlos José Sequeira appeared before Tribunal in Macao, this week, on the charge of forgery.\n\nThe defendant was a book-keeper in the Hongkong branch, in Pedder Street, of the North West Trading Co., Ltd., and it was alleged that he forged the signature of the manager of the branch to 34 cheques, in 1919 and 1920. On October 21st, 1920, Sequeira absented himself, on which date suspicions were first aroused, and rewards for information leading to his arrest were widely published.\n\nSubsequent investigations revealed a number of forgeries of the manager's signature on cheques and the omission to enter them in the Company's books. These cheques were all made payable to Sequeira. The counterfoils of the cheques, in some cases, bore different amounts from those which appeared on the cheques themselves, and names of persons other than Sequeira. In other cases the counterfoils had been cancelled. The total amount involved in the charges was $11,990.\n\nSequeira, who claims to be a Portuguese subject, was arrested by the police at Macao.\n\nA number of witnesses from Hongkong attended; the Procurator of Macao conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. H. Nolasco defended. Mr. T. M. Hazlerigg (Assistant Crown Solicitor) watched the proceedings on behalf of the Hongkong Government.\n\nThe Chief Justice sentenced the defendant to six years' imprisonment at Timor, telling him that, but for extenuating circumstances, the sentence would have been one of twelve years.\n\nThe sentence does not begin to run until it has been confirmed by the Portuguese authorities at Goa.\n\nOwing to military movements in the Central Yangtsze region, a Hankow message says, cargo deliveries from the provinces are very difficult to obtain.\n\nThe Java-China-Japan Line has distributed a dividend of 15 per cent, for the year 1920. The report speaks of the business of the Company having been seriously affected by the competition of Japanese and American Shipping Board vessels, and alludes to the disturbing effect which the violent fluctuations in the rate of the Mexican dollar has had on business life in Eastern Asia.\n\n182\n\n[September 3rd, 1921.\n\nCORRESPONDENCE.\n\nAN INACCURATE REPORT.\n\n[TO THE EDITOR OF THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS.]\n\nSIR, My attention has to-day been called to an article appearing in your issue of May 27th, referring to statistics purported to have been given by me.\n\nIt seems regrettable that inaccurate newspaper reports should be taken as authoritative statements. Having had the privilege of conferring with the Authorities of the Civil Medical Department and having in my possession the published reports of that Department, it is not likely that I should have made such an unintelligible statement as the one appearing in the Hongkong and other Eastern papers.\n\nOn first seeing the report as it appeared in the Eastern papers, I took steps through Reuters to correct the statement made. This correction will, of course, have reached you many weeks before my letter.\n\nIt is regrettable that the Sanitary Board were inveigled into spending valuable time in discussing the accuracy of the statement that was never made in the form in which they considered it.\n\nThe Eastern Commission have placed their reports on the Eastern Colonies in the hands of the National Council. This body has already transmitted them to the Colonial Office, by whom they will doubtless be forwarded to the Colonial Governments concerned.—Yours very truly,\n\nSYBIL NEVILLE ROLFE,\n\nGeneral Secretary.\n\n80, Avenue Chambers,\n\nSouthampton Row, London, W.C.1.\n\nJuly 19th, 1921.\n\n[The article to which Mrs. Rolfe refers was based on a Reuter cable attributing certain statements to her. These formed the subject of a series of questions by Dr. KOCH at a meeting of the Sanitary Board, to which answers were given by the Medical Officer of Health. We have received through Reuter's no correction to the statements attributed to Mrs. Rolfe in the telegram which formed the basis of our comment.-ED.]\n\nSUSPECTED ARSON.\n\nA KEROSENE FIRE IN WINGLOK STREET.\n\nAttempted arson is alleged in a report received by the police from the manager of a Chinese shop occupying the ground floor of No. 32, Winglok Street.\n\nThe manager states that he was asleep in the front part of the shop when he was awakened by one of his coolies with an alarm of fire. At the back of the shop he saw smoke filtering in through cracks in the back door. There was also a strong smell of kerosene. When the door was opened, a pile of waste paper saturated in petroleum was found burning furiously immediately outside. The manager and his coolies got buckets of water and managed to extinguish the flames. Near the door, was found an empty bottle which had contained kerosene.\n\nThe first and second floors of the house are occupied as a Boarding House, so that if the fire had involved the building there might have been great loss of life.",

The total number of persons reported missing, including reports from China and Macao, was 103, of whom 24 were found, as compared with 42 out of 117 in 1919.\n\nEXIGRATION.\n\nAsiatic Emigration Ordinance No. 30 of 1915.\n\n(1.) EMIGRATION OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN, (FREE).\n\n(Table IV).\n\n6. The number of female and minor passengers examined and allowed to proceed abroad was 20,690 (women 13,002, girls 1,734, and boys 5,954) as compared with 8,550 in 1919.\n\nDuring the year one ship carrying women and children left for South Africa and three for Mauritius.\n\nEmigrants to Bangkok are not now brought to this office for examination.\n\n7. The record of the occupations of the female emigrants over 16 years of age shows that out of a total of 13,002, 4,286 were going to join relatives, 2,839 with relatives, or husbands, 732 as tailoresses, 1,108 as prostitutes, 2,833 as maidservants or nurses, 18 as cooks, 366 to work in tin mines or on plantations. There were also 1 teacher, 4 actresses, 54 hairdressers, nuns and 1 repatriated by Government.\n\n8. Five out of the total number of women were detained for enquiries as against 44 in 1919. Of these two were restored to their relatives, one was sent to her native place, one was married, and one sent to a Convent.\n\n9. Repatriation of Women and Girls,--\n\n(a.) From Singapore. Thirty-six (36) prostitutes who went to Singapore were sent back on the ground that they were too young to practise prostitution. They were all seen off to their destinations.\n\nSixteen (16) prostitutes were sent back from Singapore at their own request.\n\nFour applications were received for the recovery of women who had emigrated to Singapore. Two were found to be based on false information the others were applications for the recovery of girls who had emigrated as prostitutes. Both these latter were recovered and handed back to their relatives.\n\nSix girls were repatriated from Singapore in connection with \"trafficking\" cases. Of these girls one was given in adoption as a daughter to a family in Hongkong, and the others were sent away to their homes in the country.\n\nFour women were repatriated by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, Singapore, because on various grounds they were unable to make a living in the country.\n\n(b.) From Penang. Five prostitutes were repatriated from Penang on the ground that they were too young to practise prostitution there.\n\nOne prostitute found in Penang in a destitute condition was repatriated to China.\n\nOne woman whose husband was killed in a motor car accident was repatriated.\n\n(c.) From Bangkok-Three women who had emigrated to Bangkok, were enticed to proceed to the Straits, and there forced to become prostitutes. They were recovered and repatriated by the Straits Government.\n\n(d) From Java-One woman who was unable to earn her living in Java was repatriated, and arrangements were made by this office to have her returned to her native place.\n\n(e) British North Borneo-A woman was repatriated from Jesselton, because in the opinion of the Chinese Consul and the Chinese Community she was undesirable. As all efforts to trace through the Committee of the Po Leung Kuk the whereabouts of her relatives failed she was allowed to proceed to her home unaccompanied.\n\n10. Prosecutions under the Women and Girls Protection Ordinance undertaken by this office numbered 12 with 10 convictions as compared with 7 cases and 3 convictions in 1919.\n\n(i.)—MALE EMIGRATION, (ASSISTED)).\n\n(Table V).\n\n11.—The Assisted Emigration to Banca continued throughout the year, and the figures show an increase on those of 1919.\n\n(b) The Billiton Emigration ceased entirely after the month of July, and the figures show a considerable reduction on those of 1919. (c.) There was a great increase in the emigration to the petroleum depot at Balik Papan, the men passed including both artisans and unskilled labourers.\n\n12. The assisted emigration to British North Borneo was continuous throughout the year and also showed an increase as compared with 1919.\n\n13. The year 1920 has seen a considerable extension of assisted emigration.\n\n(a.) Christmas Island (vid Singapore).-Several small parties have been sent there to work for the Christmas Island Phosphate Company. An early difficulty over the terms of repatriation was satisfactorily adjusted through the good offices of the Singapore Government.\n\n(b) Nauru, Western Samoa and Ocean Island.—An application from the New Zealand Government as mandatory power to ship assisted emigrants to these territories to work for the Pacific Phosphate Company led to several batches leaving the Colony in Spring of the year.\n\n193",

Proposal that Seamen should only be employed through the Union, and agreements should have no effect unless Union has been a witness makes any discussion useless.' \"Requirements of the Merchant Shipping Law would in any case make it impossible to accept these conditions to say nothing of international questions arising in cases of foreign owned ships.\"\n\nFL\n\nProposal to arbitrate at Canton cannot in any case be considered. ' \"The ostensible grounds for strike are solely questions of wages.\n\n\"\n\nOwners are still prepared to refer these to arbitration by Board appointed by my Government and suggest that Union should employ delegates to confer with them here to settle preliminaries.\n\nSTUBBS.\n\nBetween the 4th and the 7th February certain Hongkong Guilds came forward with proposals that they should assist in the negotiations with the seamen in Canton, and their offers were at once accepted.\n\nOn the 7th February the following telegraphic correspondence took place:\n\nFrom H.M. Consul-General, Canton, to Governor, Hongkong, dated 7th February.\n\n\"Urgent. Your telegram 4th February. Leaders of movement through Commissioner of Foreign Affairs inform me that they are prepared to proceed to Hongkong to confer with owners on condition that offices of Union be opened again, and on guarantee of freedom from arrest. They state that they are not responsible for intimidation in the Colony, and to appear at a conference as members of an outlawed society would place them in a false position, Please telegraph reply.'\n\nFrom Governor, Hongkong, to H.M. Consul-General, Canton, dated 7th February.\n\nDelegates will be given safe conduct, but Union cannot be re-opened. Point in last sentence need not arise if delegates come as representatives of seamen in Canton and not of Union. Intimidation is undoubtedly rife here, and in Canton and Sheklung. Are the Union authorities, in view of their statement, prepared to issue public repudiation of intimidation and to make it clear that men who wish to return to work need not fear the consequences?\n\nOn the 9th February the shipowners, on the suggestion of the Government, renewed their offer which had been withdrawn on the 18th January; and the Government thereupon issued the following notice in Chinese, emphasising the point that the offer was not finally binding on either side, but was subject to revision by the arbitrators.\n\nAt the suggestion of the Governor, the shipowners are willing to reinstate their former offer of increased wages to take effect from the day on which the seamen return to work. This scale of wages is merely a temporary scale pending arbitration and is on no account to be taken as a basis from which the arbitrators will work. Addition to it or subtraction from it are alike within the sole discretion of the arbitrators. The scale offered is repeated below:-\n\nChinese River Steamers.\n\n25%\n\nOther Chinese Steamers up to 1000 D.W. Tons, Canton, Hongkong and Macao Steamboat Co.'s Steamers.\n\nOther British Companies River Steamers, taking the scale of Canton, Hongkong and Macao Steamboat Co. as base.\n\nCoasting Steamers.\n\nJava Lines.\n\nPacific Lines.\n\nEuropean Lines\n\nAustralian Lines.\n\n15%\n\n25%\n\n15%\n\n12%\n\n7½%\n\n7½%\n\n10%\n\nIn the meantime the Committee of the Tung Wa Hospital had proposed to the Government that they should use their good offices in bringing about a settlement. Other leading members of the Chinese Community were subsequently associated with them, and on the 8th February the Tung Wa Hospital, as representing the Chinese of the Colony, telegraphed to Canton asking the seamen to send delegates to discuss a settlement with them. The delegates arrived on the 12th February and on the following day at a meeting at the Tung Wa Hospital they declared that they could not carry the matter further until the settlement of the question of the re-opening of the Seamen's Union, which had been closed by the Government on the 1st February as being an unlawful society. The matter was accordingly referred on the 14th February to the Government, who on the 15th February issued a proclamation in Chinese in the following terms :-\n\n\"On instructions from the Government, the Secretary for Chinese Affairs has communicated the following decision to the seamen's representatives :-\n\n1. The Seamen's Union was closed because it exceeded its legitimate bounds and broke the law of Hongkong, not because it asked for an increase of wages.\n\n2. The Governor absolutely requires proof of freedom from unlawfulness before he can change his present attitude.\n\n3. If it is desired to give proof of freedom from unlawfulness, all seamen and all workmen whom they involved in the strike must return to work and Hongkong resume its normal condition, before it can be considered that proof of freedom from unlawfulness has been furnished.\n\n4. If all come back to work first on the conditions offered by the shipowners and await the award of the arbitrators, the Governor will cancel the proclamation closing the Union.\"\n\nThe delegates returned to Canton on the 15th February, and they came back to Hongkong on the 17th February with certain suggestions which were considered by the shipowners on the 19th February. The shipowners' decision was conveyed to the delegates on the 20th February by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and the delegates left for Canton on the 21st February. On the 24th February a letter was handed to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs stating that the seamen were not prepared to accept the proposals made.\n\nOn the 22nd February a telegram had been received from H.M. Consul-General at Canton, suggesting that there were good grounds for believing that an all-round increase of some 2% on the owners' original offer would be accepted On the 24th February the Engineers' Society came forward with a similar suggestion and offered to negotiate for a settlement on this basis.\n\nThe Government informed the shipowners of these proposals, and suggested that, as it seemed likely that the offer of such an increase would bring the men back immediately to work and would prevent a general strike, it would be wise to add some 2% to the figures shown in the notice of the 9th February which is quoted above. That notice still stood. It pointed out clearly that the shipowners' offer covered only the immediate present, and that the scale would be increased or lowered in the sole discretion of the arbitrators. The shipowners added 2% to their previous figures, and on the 24th February this information was telegraphed to Canton and was communicated to the Engineers' Guild. The seamen refused the new terms.\n\nOn the 28th February, H.M. Consul-General telegraphed that he had information to the effect that, if a meeting between the shipowners and the seamen's delegates could be arranged, there was every prospect of a settlement. On the 1st March a reply was sent by the Hongkong Government that the shipowners were willing to meet the seamen's delegates. It was added that, in order to avoid further abortive proceedings, the Government considered it to be highly desirable that the delegates should be fully empowered to make a settlement.",

(Continued from Page 3)\n\nTHE ALLIES AND TURKEY.\n\nParis, Sept. 21.\n\nAn account of the proceedings of the Foreign Ministers' Conference yesterday is contained in the semi-official statement which says that Lord Curzon expressed great astonishment at the fact that while the British had decided to reinforce her troops at Chanak, both France and Italy had resolved to withdraw their contingents from the south side of the Sea of Marmora.\n\nLord Curzon considered that the Franco-Italian decision hardly conformed with the agreements of 1915 and 1918, providing for partial Inter-Allied occupation of Turkish territory.\n\nM. Poincare regarded the agreements as being at present inapplicable, as no conflict was feared when the allocation of troops was provided thereunder. He added that French opinion would not permit French troops to act with the Greeks and he argued that if Chanak was held, the whole of the southern shore of the Sea of Marmora ought equally to be occupied.\n\nKemalists would entertain peace proposals.\n\nSignor Sforza, agreeing with M. Poincare, believed that the discussions on the acceptable basis of agreement cabled last night and which just then arrived.\n\nThe Conference decided, in principle, to hold a Peace Conference at Venice, but pointed out that Russia had not been invited as she was not directly interested, the Soviet-Angora Treaty specifically excluding Russian decisions affecting the sovereignty of Turkey and the security of Constantinople.\n\nM. Poincare further pointed out the military objection to the Allies fighting with their backs to the sea. He also pointed out the undesirable effect upon the Islamic world if Britain adopted an uncompromising or bellicose attitude.\n\nIt is semi-officially declared that the problem cannot be referred to the League of Nations as urged by Dr. Nansen and Dominion representatives, as it is a Government matter.\n\nThe document states that the Foreign Minister's decision marks a big step on the road to peace.\n\nAll broken, chafed and damaged cargo is to be left in the Godowns, where it will be examined at 10 a.m. on 26th inst., by the Company's Surveyors, Messrs.

The Treasury experts estimate that the new tariff under the Fordney-McCumber Bill, the measure when enacted, will yield about $100,000,000 annual revenue, half of which will be derived from the following sources, viz., sugar, $37,000,000; raw wool, $63,000,000; tobacco, $35,000,000; laces and embroideries, $15,000,000; while the average ad valorem rates will be slightly higher than the Payne-Aldrich Tariff.\n\nThey will in actual operation show an average slightly lower because some of the new duties will be inoperative owing to their height or the absence of imports of commodities they cover.\n\nPerhaps, the most notable feature of the Bill is the power given to the President, after investigation by the Tariff Commission, to increase or decrease any rate in the Bill by 50 per cent. if necessary, in order to set off the difference in the cost of production at home and abroad.\n\nThe President may also declare American valuations as the basis of an assessment of ad valorem duties.\n\nIt is estimated that this will automatically increase the rates about 100 per cent.\n\nAfter such declaration the President could reduce any duty by 50 per cent. but could not increase it.\n\nAlmost all infantile troubles arise in the first place from stomach and bowel troubles.\n\nTo remedy these conditions use Baby's Own Tablets.\n\nThese Tablets stand in a class by themselves, being especially made for children's use, pleasant in taste and guaranteed absolutely harmless.\n\nThey quickly reduce simple fever, cure indigestion, check diarrhoea, allay teething pains, expel worms, relieve croup and colds, quiet the nerves and promote health-giving, restful sleep in a natural way.\n\nBaby's Own Tablets are sold by chemists, or at 60 cents the vial, post free, from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., 96 Szechuen Road, Shanghai.\n\nVisitors always welcome a VICTROLA No Home complete without one.\n\nMCUTRIES:-Sole Agents.\n\nAIRSHIPS SUPPLANT CRUISERS.\n\nLondon, Sept. 21. The Admiralty has decided that the use of the airship in wartime shall become the first consideration of British airship policy, and its employment for Imperial communications the next.\n\nThis decision was influenced by figures in comparison with the cruiser, showing that the airship costing £250,000, compared with £900,000, is cheaper to navigate and able to cover seven times more area.\n\nSIAMESE TEAK TRADE.\n\nLondon, Sept. 21. As the May meeting of the Anglo-Siam Corporation is forthcoming, the issue of 22,000 ordinary shares of £50,000, 7%, preferences is announced.\n\nThe chairman's review considered the Siamese Government was insufficiently considering the interests of the teak trade in Siam.\n\nYEE SANG FAT CO.

The knockout came after twenty-seven seconds of fighting in the eleventh round. Villa scored two knockdowns in the tenth round and then began pummeling Buff with both hands. He rushed Buff to the ropes and chased him across the ring. Buff was reeling when Villa landed his left on the head and sent the American bumping to the floor.\n\nAt the start of the eleventh round Buff was defenseless with grogginess.

CARGO HANDLING AT BATAVIA- In his report on the economic situation of the Netherlands East Indies. Mr. H.A.N. Bluett. British commercial agent for the Netherlands East Indies at Batavia, makes some interesting references to that company' shipping. He says:--The scare`ty of cargo for Europe which be came apparent during the latter half of 1920 continued well into the year 1921, during the first half of which steamers sailing homewards with large quantities of space in spite of important reductions in freights.\n\nwere\n\nYORK. With the exception of a few speculative bookings, generally speaking business was done for shipment on very short notice, freight seldom being booked for more than a few weeks, and with a fairly large supply of ready tonnage on the spot there was no reason for shippers to bind them- selves until the last moment. During the early months of the latter part of the year, con- ditions, however, improved, there being a very firm demand for tonnage for two or three months ahead from July onwards- principally brought about by the sudden boom in the copra trade- but within a comparatively short space of time it was realised that the position had been exaggerat- ed, and that the requirements for tootage to the United Kingdom and the Continent were consider ably below expectations, more especially for through cargo from outlying ports in the Dutch East Indies, which, as a rule, consists largely of copra and rattans. De- pression again set in, business being little better than during the early monthe of the period under review; rates continued or\n\nSteamere proceed via Suez Canal or Panama Canal at Owners option.

The cost of meals for passengers is above that of rations for the crew, the operators contend, and the adjustment of the rate because of this \n\nis being discussed by Shipping Board officials and the representatives of the companies concerned. There also has been some discussion of a more elastic allowance to provide for adequate payment where rationing necessitates the carrying of food in launches to vessels anchored midstream or in out-of-the-way \n\nplaces. It is understood that the Shipping Board has decided to permit operators to arrange for minor repairs without the specific approval of the board. Minor repairs in this case considered to be all those costing less than $5,000. The bill in each case is subject to checking up by a representative of the Government.

This of course was an ingenious method of saving face, but not enough to satisfy Billy \n\nHaving thrown his chest once, and not had it burst in, he threw it again and called for unconditional surrender of the union, in the form of an undertaking that there should be no further attempts at job control, either on the Largs Bay or on any other vessel of the line \n\nIt has taken a fortnight to get this well home into Tom Walsh's head, and now the undertaking has been given.

In the course of the discussion, I had put forward the suggestion that a fund for the purpose be started, to which ship-owners, reinstated seamen—out of their increased wages—the Canton Chamber of Commerce, and perhaps the general public, might contribute. This was rejected by all parties at the meeting, but the germ of the idea got abroad, and early in the forenoon of the 5th March Sir Robert Ho-tung caused me to be informed that he would guarantee such a fund to any amount necessary should it be impossible to find any other solution. Another joint meeting of owners and delegates was accordingly called for at 11:30, and by 5:30 P.M. complete accord was reached after I had made my utmost endeavours to bring down the demands of the men. The basis of settlement was a substantial—but not an exaggerated increase of wages for the men, an immediate return to work, payment of half-wages for a period not exceeding five and a half months to all who could not find immediate re-employment, owing to uncertainty of date of return of vessels on which previously employed, and a calling off by the delegates of the sympathetic strike by all other guilds in Hong Kong, which was to commence at 8 A.M. on the 6th March. The economic side of the dispute having thus been disposed of, the delegates met the representatives of the Government, and an agreement was arrived at in respect of all Governmental questions—such as the reopening of the Seamen's Union, non-punishment of the strikers, &c.—by 8 o'clock. So the strike came to an end, and at 3 A.M. I returned to Canton in H.M.S. Moth.\n\n21\n\n4. It is difficult to convey the nature of the difficulties with which one found oneself confronted. On the one side, a body of men representing fifty-two separate steamship companies engaged in different trades, and hence with divergent views, some of whom, such as the representatives of the American Shipping Board, Canadian Pacific Steamships, Limited, and the Japanese lines, with instructions from their principals not on any account to increase working costs; on the other, four Chinese seafarers—of the cook and steward type—determined to secure as much as possible for their principals, so that some compensation might accrue to them for weeks of idleness and consequent loss of extraneous profit through trade and smuggling more especially on the Pacific, European and Java lines. (These pay the best wages, but wages are practically of no consideration to men who can make ten times more than their pay by illicit methods. Yet to them had to be conceded an increase of 15 per cent.)\n\n5. The settlement has been widely and adversely criticised, and those concerned are being held up to obloquy as having ignominiously sacrificed 'British prestige. Such criticism is, however, purely destructive. The strike had created a situation of danger so extreme, which, had it not been brought to an end, might have led to a wholesale destruction of British life and property in South China, not to mention a complete paralysis of all activities, commercial and other, in Hong Kong. Regarded from a broad point of view the settlement is not an unfair one. Some of the seamen undoubtedly had grievances calling for redress, and, had no provision been made for men not absorbed for long periods, renewed agitation on a large scale would have sprung up.\n\n6. On looking back the impartial observer cannot help feeling that mistakes have been made on the non-Chinese side. Conversations at the beginning should never have been broken off, as this gave the men an excuse for removing themselves to Canton, where they fell under the influence of the hidden hand, to which reference will be made later on, and the longer they stayed away the more powerful that influence became. Some modus vivendi had to be arrived at, and the longer it was deferred the more difficult and humiliating from the owners' and Government's point of view it became. The closing of the Seamen's Union in Hong Kong, although in the circumstances justifiable and possibly legal, was impolitic. In its fixed determination to \"break\" the strike, because of its political origin, the Hong Kong Government underestimated the forces to which it was opposed, and the longer the struggle continued the more deadly it became. (Hence the bitterness of partial surrender). To the various appeals which I addressed to the Civil Governor for assistance in getting the men to return to work the invariable reply was: \"The men refuse arbitration in Hong Kong; they have reduced their original demands, yet the owners make no counter-offer; in fact, what inducement can I hold out to them? I will maintain order, but I will not use force.\"\n\n7. There has just reached me a copy of the Hong Kong Government Gazette of the 10th March, which contains a notice of the part played by Government in the negotiations connected with the strike, and which largely amplifies and supplements what has been written above. The account therein given of Mr. A. E. Wood's action is not correct. This most promising officer did not interview General Ch'en prior to the receipt of his instructions. These were brought up to him by another officer of the Hong Kong Government—Mr. S. B. McElderry—contained in two private letters from his Excellency the Governor to myself. The following day these two gentlemen and the senior vice-consul had an interview with the Civil Governor from 9 A.M. to 10:30 A.M., which was resumed at noon and lasted until about 4 P.M. These conversations were satisfactory on both sides, but in the course of the afternoon news was received that the shipowners had withdrawn their previous offer, and negotiations consequently broke down.\n\nMr. Hallifax, the Secretary of Chinese Affairs, who, as stated, came up to explain matters to me, also saw General Ch'en in company with the senior vice-consul. The general is reported, by one of his secretaries, to have remarked thereafter that the interview had left a bad impression.\n\n(b) Sources of Origin.\n\nand\n\n70-387-28/21\n\n8. Although it may be assumed that in its inception the strike arose out of a genuine grievance on the part of certain seamen with regard to wages, the contention of the Hong Kong Government that it almost immediately assumed the nature of a political movement is perfectly sound. Nor is the reason far to seek. It is simply the outcome of the anomalous state of things which has established two Governments in China, each claiming to be the sole legitimate one, but of which only one is recognised as such by His Majesty's Government. As is well known, many years before the revolution, Sun Yat-sen was the head of a political organisation, which later on developed into that powerful body known as the Kuo-min Tang, with its widespread ramifications amongst the Chinese abroad and in the republic itself, and which is the main instrument through which he is now striving to gain supreme power. Ignoring the debt of gratitude which he owes to Great Britain, Sun has throughout adopted an attitude hostile to her, and more especially towards the colony of Hong Kong for having proscribed him on account of his political activities. The colony he erroneously considers has adopted a policy of trying to debar Canton from obtaining free access to the sea, and of thwarting his grandiose projects of internal development (vide Shanghai despatch, Very Confidential, of the 25th February, 1922, to Hong Kong). This rancour was further increased by the most unfortunate publication on the 6th May, 1921, by the Acting Secretary of Chinese Affairs in Hong Kong, in the name of the Governor, of two notifications in connection with the local inauguration ceremonies on his formally assuming the office of President, couched in terms derogatory to himself and his Government (vide my despatches Nos. 33 and 34 of the 12th and 13th May, 1921). His Vice-Minister for Foreign Affairs at the time demanded an apology, but only received an expression of regret. I remember perfectly how, when I told him that regrets were all that Hong Kong had to offer, he drew himself up and said: \"Very well. We will remember this.\" Yet another cause of offence was afforded to Sun's Government in June of last year, when, in spite of repeated protests, the Hong Kong Government refused to remove Yang Yong-tai, who was using the colony as a base for assisting the Kuangsi party against Kuangtung (vide my despatch No. 47 of the 23rd June and subsequent ones), and I had occasion then to warn the Governor of Hong Kong of the danger of thus increasing the animosity of Canton against his Government. Moreover, as has been repeatedly reported, Sun, ever since his return to South China, has been coquetting with the labour guilds, and in organising them has had the very efficient assistance of one Hsieh Ying-po, a labour agitator trained in the United States of America, aided by Bolshevik emissaries of various nationalities. The most serious local strike fomented by these gentry was the mechanics' strike of May 1921, which was settled by the personal intervention of General Chen Chiung-ming; but in the course of that year there were no fewer than twenty-one other strikes of a minor character (vide list enclosed*), and at the moment of writing the junks conveying rice are on strike.\n\nQue was not, therefore, surprised to find that the seamen's strike in Hong Kong was at once seized on with avidity by the Kuo-min Tang as a means of wreaking vengeance on Hong Kong, nor that the organising capacity of Hsieh and his co-workers should have brought the weapon to their hand to such a pitch of perfection. It is on these grounds that the long dragging-out of the negotiations is so much to be deplored, inasmuch as it affords the Bolshevik element time to bring the requisite intimidation to bear and to build up the machinery necessary to call out every guild or association in Hong Kong and South China.\n\nNot printed",

They state that they are not responsible for intimidation in the colony, and to appear at a conference as members of an outlawed society would place them in a false position. Please telegraph reply.\" From Governor, Hong Kong, to His Majesty's Consul-General, Canton, dated\n\nFebruary 7,\n\nDelegates will be given safe conduct, but union cannot be reopened. Point in last sentence need not arise if delegates come as representatives of seamen in Canton and not of union. Intimidation is undoubtedly rife here and in Canton and Sheklung. Are the union authorities, in view of their statement, prepared to issue public repudiation of intimidation and to make it clear that men who wish to return to work need not fear the consequences?\"\n\nOn the 9th February the shipowners, on the suggestion of the Government, renewed their offer which had been withdrawn on the 18th January; and the Government thereupon issued the following notice in Chinese, emphasising the point that the offer was not finally binding on either side, but was subject to revision by the arbitrators:\n\n\"At the suggestion of the Governor, the shipowners are willing to reinstate their former offer of increased wages, to take effect from the day on which the seamen return to work. This scale of wages is merely a temporary scale pending arbitration, and is on no account to be taken as a basis from which the arbitrators will work. Addition to it or substraction from it are alike within the sole discretion of the arbitrators. The scale offered is repeated below:-\n\n  \n    Per cent.\n    \n  \n  \n    24\n    Chinese river steamers\n  \n  \n    25\n    Other Chinese steamers up to 1,000 D.W. tons\n  \n  \n    25\n    Canton, Hong Kong and Macao Steamboat Company's steamers\n  \n  \n    15\n    Other British companies' river steamers, taking the scale of Canton, Hong Kong and Macao Steamboat Company as base\n  \n  \n    15\n    Coasting steamers\n  \n  \n    12\n    Java lines...\n  \n  \n    \n    \"Pacific lines\n  \n  \n    7½\n    European lines\n  \n  \n    10\n    \"Australian lines\n  \n\nIn the meantime, the committee of the Tung Wa Hospital had proposed to the Government that they should use their good offices in bringing about a settlement. Other leading members of the Chinese community were subsequently associated with them, and on the 8th February the Tung Wa Hospital, as representing the Chinese of the colony, telegraphed to Canton asking the seamen to send delegates to discuss a settlement with them. The delegates arrived on the 12th February, and on the following day at a meeting at the Tung Wa Hospital they declared that they could not carry the matter further until the settlement of the question of the reopening of the Seamen's Union, which had been closed by the Government on the 1st February as being an unlawful society. The matter was accordingly referred on the 14th February to the Government, who, on the 15th February, issued a proclamation in Chinese in the following terms:—\n\n\"On instructions from the Government, the Secretary for Chinese Affairs has communicated the following decision to the seamen's representatives :-\n\n\"1. The Seamen's Union was closed because it exceeded its legitimate bounds and broke the law of Hong Kong, not because it asked for an increase of wages.\n\n2. The Governor absolutely requires proof of freedom from unlawfulness before he can change his present attitude,\n\n3. If it is desired to give proof of freedom from unlawfulness, all seamen and all workmen whom they involved in the strike must return to work and Hong Kong resume its normal condition before it can be considered that proof of freedom from unlawfulness has been furnished.\n\n4. If all come back to work first on the conditions offered by the ship-owners and await the award of the arbitrators, the Governor will cancel the proclamation closing the union.\"\n\nThe delegates returned to Canton on the 15th February, and they came back to Hong Kong on the 17th February with certain suggestions which were considered by the shipowners on the 19th February. The shipowners' decision was conveyed to the delegates on the 20th February by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, and the delegates left for Canton on the 21st February. On the 24th February a letter was handed to the Secretary for Chinese Affairs stating that the seamen were not prepared to accept the proposals made.\n\nOn the 22nd February a telegram had been received from His Majesty's consul-general at Canton suggesting that there were good grounds for believing that an all-round increase of some 2 per cent, on the owners' original offer would be accepted. On the 24th February the Engineers' Society came forward with a similar suggestion and offered to negotiate for a settlement on this basis.\n\nThe Government informed the shipowners of these proposals, and suggested that, as it seemed likely that the offer of such an increase would bring the men back immediately to work and would prevent a general strike, it would be wise to add some 2 per cent, to the figures shown in the notice of the 9th February, which is quoted above. That notice still stood. It pointed out clearly that the shipowners' offer covered only the immediate present, and that the scale would be increased or lowered in the sole discretion of the arbitrators The shipowners added 2½ per cent, to their previous figures, and on the 24th February this information was telegraphed to Canton and was communicated to the Engineers' Guild. The seamen refused the new terms.\n\nOn the 28th February His Majesty's consul-general telegraphed that he had information to the effect that, if a meeting between the shipowners and the seamen's delegates could be arranged, there was every prospect of a settlement. On the 1st March a reply was sent by the Hong Kong Government that the shipowners were willing to meet the seamen's delegates. It was added that, in order to avoid further abortive proceedings, the Government considered it to be highly desirable that the delegates should be fully empowered to make a settlement.\n\nA further telegram was sent on the 1st March asking Dr. Jamieson to come to Hong Kong to discuss the situation, and he arrived on the 2nd March. On the 2nd March telegrams were received from the consulate at Canton that delegates with full powers were coming on the 4th March; and they arrived accordingly.\n\nOn the 3rd March it was arranged that the Hong Kong Government should not be represented at the conference, but the Government accepted a suggestion from Dr. Jamieson that he should be present in an unofficial capacity. It was further arranged that, in the event of a settlement being arrived at between the shipowners and the seamen, the representatives of the Hong Kong Government should subsequently meet the seamen in order to consider any proposals affecting the Government that they might wish to put forward for discussion. The Secretary for Chinese Affairs, Attorney-General and Clerk of Councils were appointed to represent the Government.\n\nThe conference between the shipowners and the seamen took place on the 4th March, and it was announced late in the afternoon that a settlement had been reached.\n\nIt was then arranged that the seamen's delegates would meet the Government's representatives at 7 P.M. The meeting took place accordingly, but as proceedings were about to commence Mr. R. Sutherland, Chairman of the Shipowners' Committee, brought in for signature the agreement between the shipowners and the seamen, which had been concluded verbally and had since been set out in writing by the shipowners. Government's representatives thereupon withdrew, as the Government was in no way responsible for the agreement. It was reported later in the evening that the delegates were unable to sign the document as worded, while Mr. Sutherland had no authority to alter the wording in any material particular; and so a further meeting between the shipowners and the seamen was arranged for the following morning.\n\nOn the 5th March, prior to the meeting, Sir R. Ho-tung approached the Government with an offer which he was prepared to make in order to facilitate a settlement, and he was informed that he was at liberty to convey this offer to such parties as he might think fit. The Government was unable itself to make use of the offer, as it did not wish to intervene in the economic side of the dispute.\n\nThe further conference took place on the 5th March, and an agreement was concluded and signed in the afternoon.\n\n282",

Owing to the harmful effects of this practice, at least two other countries have made an attempt to try and prevent it, viz., British Malaya (Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States) and Java, but up to the present this Government has... taken no steps in the matter. For one thing, deprivation of dross would probably drive the poorer class of opium habitues, who are the dross eaters, to crime in order to obtain money to buy the higher priced opium, which would be further ...  It must be remembered that the consumption of their only alternative \n\ndross will decline in direct proportion to the decrease in opium smoking, as without the latter no dross can be produced.\n\n55.\n\nWith the advent of registration no person not addicted to either opium or dross will take to the habit, since it is the confirmed opium smoker, of reduced circumstances, who is finally driven to dross. Young men, in the absence of strict control, may take to smoking deliberately, or may be induced to do so at first for amusement or pleasure, but no one will take to swallowing dross without already being an opium smoker, since the taste is unpleasant in the extreme, with no novel sensations attending its consumption. It follows that, if registration successfully prevents new persons taking to the habit of smoking, it will also effectively prevent any increase in the use of dross.\n\nRAW OPIUM.\n\n56. Under the Hague Convention, the signatories are to control the production of raw opium. This country produced a certain amount, and under the new law the poppy plant can only be cultivated under license. (Opium Law, Section 4).\n\n57. The raw opium used for the preparation of Regie opium is now obtained from the Government of India at a fixed price, under the terms of an agreement providing for a maximum supply of 1700 chests per year. From this amount, 1,850,000 tamlungs of Regie Opium are prepared.\n\nOPIUM FACTORY.\n\n58. This Factory, erected at a total cost of 1,300,000 ticals, has worked satisfactorily since 1913. The machine Boiling Plant has a capacity for boiling and preparing 1800 chests of raw opium per annum, at a much lower cost than the old method of band boiling. The packing plant has a capacity of 60,000,000 tubes per annum, the amount of opium packed depending on the sizes of the tubes issued.\n\nThe plant is designed to produce five different sizes of tubes, as follows:-\n\n  \n    Tube No.\n    No. of tubes to 1 tamlung.\n    Weight of opium packed, in hoons.\n    Equivalent in grams.\n  \n  \n    1\n    10\n    3.75\n    \n  \n  \n    2\n    20\n    1.87\n    \n  \n  \n    3\n    30\n    1.25\n    \n  \n  \n    4\n    40\n    0.94\n    \n  \n  \n    6\n    50\n    0.625\n    \n  \n\nAnnexe V. shows the amount of opium sold in the different sized tubes during the year B.E. 2460 (1917-18) to B.E. 2462 (1919-20)\n\nSMUGGLING.\n\n59. Smuggling is, of course, the greatest difficulty which a country attempting suppression, has to deal with. If it were not for this question, any country would be free to take steps, however drastic, to deal with the internal traffic in opium. It usually follows, however, that measures taken for restricting internal control are at once followed by the smuggling of opium from other countries. Opium is of such high value in proportion to its bulk, that even with the constant detection of cases of smuggling, the traffic will continue unless rigorous measures to prevent illicit exportation are taken by producing countries. This has, of course, been early realised by all the Governments concerned, and is one of the principal reasons for the assembly of international Commissions and Conventions on the opium question.\n\n60. At the present time smuggling into this country is not very prevalent, mainly for the reason that the Regie opium is of a high quality being pure Indian without any mixture, and is sold at a fairly reasonable price.\n\n61. Smuggling out of this country has practically ceased, owing to there being no demand at present from China, as already mentioned in para. 25. It is now definitely known that China has resumed the production of raw opium.\n\n19\n\n35",

Preference was therefore given to an intermediate system, whereby the possession of opium is also only allowed on the strength of a permit issued by or on behalf of the Resident, but which is more elastic than the finished system. Thus no full stipulations are included in the relative decrees regarding the issue and text of the permits. The breach of the conditions subject to which the permit was issued however is made punishable. It is therefore easier to make alterations, if altered circumstances or discovered abuses make that necessary or if a stricter control is considered possible. To facilitate the supervision, and to curtail the preparatory work, a personal permit need not be given immediately to each opium-smoker, but a combined permit can for instance be given to the head of a family on behalf of members of that family, and if necessary to an employer for his opium-smoking employees. Moreover, conditions regarding the transport of the opium are included in the permit, and in regard to that it is as a rule stipulated, that it may not be carried outside the subdistrict in question. The Police can therefore confiscate opium, which is carried for instance per train or along the road from Batavia to Tandjong Priok contrary to that condition.\n\nTo limit the consumption and also to simplify the control it is further only permissible for a licensee to provide himself once a day with opium *). In large places further, opium may only be sold on a buying-card belonging to the permit. The buying-card is periodically renewed. **) The licensees do not always require to come themselves to buy but can order this to be done by a servant or a member of the household;\n\n*) This rule has since been introduced in the districts where a finished licence-system is in force.\n\n**) Specimens of licence and buying-card are included as appendices II and III.\n\n33\n\n—\n\nthe sending along of the licence to the opium shop is also unnecessary; only the buying-card requires to be brought along. At the introduction, arrangements were made, whereby it was possible for those, who did not wish publicly to ask a permit (e.g. well-to-do Chinese women, persons of standing, and such like) to apply if necessary direct to the Controller of the Opium-regie or an official of the anti-opium service through the intermediary of a relative. Licences have even been issued on which only a number appears, and not the name of the licensee; this person is then only known to the official who issued the permit. It is not made too difficult for those who are passers-through and the crews of ships, to obtain opium. Travellers, who cannot do without opium can, for so far as they are also required to have a licence in their town of residence, bring this, or otherwise a paper issued on behalf of the Official in charge of the district, on showing which they can obtain a card for a specified period here, while those who have to stay here repeatedly can apply for a licence for the use of opium.\n\nThis was based on the principle, that the endeavour must be to restrict the use of opium throughout Java, and to control it, and that it is only then of use to prohibit some one, who in one place is allowed to smoke opium, from doing so in another licence-area, when the number of licensees in the latter is only so small, that it can be expected, that within a short time that district can be entirely closed to opium.\n\nThe system therefore does not compel the bonafide consumer to have recourse to smuggled opium. But it formed an obstacle to those who were accustomed to buy much more opium than their income would allow them to do, and who destined most of the opium bought for re-sale or forbidden export to other parts of Netherlands India.\n\nAn unfinished licence-system has also been introduced in the still not closed portion of the plantation-area of the East Coast of Sumatra. Also in that district the revenue from opium greatly increased. There were indications that some of the opium bought was clandestinely carried to Banka and other districts with stringent restrictive measures. Upon\n\n61",

PROFUSION OF QUESTIONS IN COMMONS\n\nLONDON, July 8th. In the House of Commons at question time Mr. Austen Chamberlain declared that no proposal for severance of diplomatic relations with the Soviet Government was under consideration by His Majesty's Government. The Diplomatic Body at Peking was considering a joint reply to the fourteen points contained in the Chinese Government's note. He was not aware of any conflict of opinion between the Powers with regard to the reasonableness of the demands.\n\nMr. Beckett declared that the American Press widely stated that the American representatives were willing to accept, but that the British delegates were holding out. Mr. Chamberlain deprecated being called upon to answer questions with regard to information supplied by the different presses of the world, and emphasised that he was not aware of any conflict between the different Governments.\n\nReplying to Mr. George Lansbury, Mr. Chamberlain said that Russia was not represented on the Commission of Enquiry at Shanghai because Russia was not one of the Treaty Powers.\n\nReplying to Mr. Robinson, he said that no proposals had been received from the Government of the United States for convening an International Conference for the purpose of removing the special privileges of certain nationals in the treaty ports of China and giving the Chinese nation unrestricted control of the import duties.\n\nReplying to Mr. Ammon he said that the Government was not prepared to follow the example of Germany, Austria, and Russia by renouncing extra-territorial privileges in China. Pending the result of the present consultations between the Treaty Powers he was not in a position to add anything to his statement of July 1st.\n\n## GERMAN LOANS. UNPOPULAR DECISION BY THE REICHSTAG\n\nBERLIN, July 8th. The Committee of the Bourse has decided to close the Exchange to-day, as a protest against the decision of the Revaluation Committee of the Reichstag to differentiate between old and new holders of paper mark State Loans and grant the latter revaluation only 2 per cent., compared with 12.5 per cent. for old holders.\n\nAll other German exchanges closed also. Bankers and financiers generally are of opinion that it will be possible to parry out much differentiation and anticipate that German securities abroad will be adversely affected thereby.\n\nThe Bourse Committee consider that such a differentiation will destroy confidence in German loans. The Committee decreed that until further notice, quotations of the loans of the Reich and Federal States and towns be struck out of the list.\n\n## THE SUBMARINE CABLE. INTERESTING FILM SHOWN IN LONDON\n\n## SWATOW AFFAIRS. COMMUNAL KITCHEN IN KAKCHIOH\n\n[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] There has been boycott of British trade since July 1st. The office staffs of all British concerns left on July 4th and the crews of all British motor-boats are on strike. Europeans, however, are in many cases keeping the motor-boats going.\n\nBeyond the attempt to interfere with trade everything is quiet and there have been no attacks on foreigners other than those reported previously.\n\nA communal kitchen is being maintained in Kakchioh and provides two meals daily for the twenty residents there. H.M.S. Bluebell makes all the bread for them and the bluejackets have been doing some of the washing and assisting in the preparation of the meals ashore.\n\n## SEARCHERS FILMED. TO BE USED AS CHINESE PROPAGANDA?\n\nSpecial Constable Smith, who was in charge of a squad of Sikhs searching vehicles on Thibet Road, Shanghai, is wondering whether the police activities, which drew a large crowd on this occasion, are to be featured in some Chinese film drama or will be used for propaganda showing the foreigners' interference with the rights of Chinese in the Foreign Settlement, says the Peking and Tientsin Times.\n\nAs the foreign constable and his men were holding up some rickshas, a motor, the number 4743, came upon the scene. The driver promptly put on the brakes, and calmly sat back in his seat and watched events while the occupants of the car proceeded to film it! Before the amazed constable could inquire of the motorists as to what their intentions were, the car drove off again.\n\n## HOME CRICKET. OXFORD v. CAMBRIDGE\n\nLONDON, July 8th. The inter-Varsity match, Oxford against Cambridge, played at Lords, was drawn. Oxford batted first and made 350, Stewart Brown scoring 56 and Guise 58. Cambridge then went in and made 409, the principal scorers being Duleep Sinhji 75, Crawley 98 and Enthoven 129. The last-named player scored 104 last year and has thus equalled William Yardley's inter-Varsity record of scoring two centuries. Yardley's centuries were made in 1870 and 1872. Oxford's second innings had produced 214 for six wickets when time was called, Brown scoring 69, and Holmes 60 not out.\n\n## SINGAPORE BASE PROGRESS\n\nLONDON, July 8th. In the House of Commons, replying to Commander Kenworthy, Mr. Bridgeman described the progress of work on the new dockyard at Singapore in preparation for dredging work for the berth of the floating dock on arrival of the dredging fleet in November.\n\n## FIGHTING IN MOROCCO. RIFFS PREPARING OFFENSIVE\n\nLONDON, July 8th. \nPARIS, July 8th. \"The Romance of the Submarine Cable,\" a film illustrating the fascinating story of the manufacture, laying, repair, and everyday work of the cable, was exhibited by the Eastern Associated Telegraph Companies after luncheon at the Savoy Hotel presided over by the Vice-Chairman, Mr. J. C. Denison Pender.\n\nA message from Fez says the French evacuated two advanced posts after destruction of defences northward of Wezzan. A later despatch reports that the Riffs mustered ten thousand rifles in the Wergha region where they are endeavouring to win over tribes. The enemy is apparently aiming at a new and intensified offensive against Fez from the north to the south.\n\nThe film gives many instances of the everyday life of the Eastern Company's staff ashore and afloat, and the complicated machinery employed for covering the core of the cable is shown in all its processes.\n\n## THE COAL CRISIS. MR. BALDWIN HOPEFUL\n\nLONDON, July 8th. In the House of Commons, questioned regarding the coal crisis, Mr. Baldwin said that he thought it was clear that the possibilities for negotiation were not yet exhausted, and appealed to both sides to explore every opportunity for a settlement.\n\nHe disagreed with a Labour member who declared that the deadlock was complete.\n\n## FLYING RECORDS\n\nAMSTERDAM, July 8th. Mynheer Grase, the chief of the scientific section of the Fokker aeroplane works, flew a standard Fokker D.XIII machine of 450 h.p., with Napier Lion engine, 100 kilometres at an average speed of 260 kilometres per hour, and 200 kilometres at an average speed of 265 per hour, with a load of 500 kilogrammes. These feats are believed to be world's records.\n\n## 'SOCCER IN AUSTRALIA. ENGLISH TOURISTS WIN AGAIN\n\nNEWCASTLE, New South Wales, July 8th. The English Association Football team beat Newcastle by 3 goals to 1.\n\n## FRANCO-SIAMESE TREATY\n\nPARIS, July 8th. The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Chamber adopted a report concluding in favour of the ratification of the Franco-Siamese Treaty.\n\n## FALL FROM WINDOW. BEAUTIFUL BARONESS KILLED AFTER DANCE\n\nNEW YORK, July 8th. Baroness Helen Zurmuehlen, who is understood to have come from Java, fell early this morning from her seventh floor apartment at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel and was killed. The accident was apparently due to the heat wave. The Baroness had been dancing and had stepped to the window to get a breath of air, when her friends were horrified to see her topple over and fall to the roof of the Japanese garden far below. Her diamond ear-rings were dashed from their settings as she fell. She should have sailed on the Berengaria to-day to join her husband who is believed to be in the Dutch diplomatic service. Prior to her marriage, the Baroness was the beautiful Miss Helen Carruthers, of San Antonio.\n\n## U.S. HEAT WAVE. NINE DEATHS IN TWO DAYS\n\nNEW YORK, July 8th. The East United States are in the grip of a heat wave from which at least nine deaths have taken place in two days. Violent thunderstorms have only temporarily relieved the sweltering millions. The temperature at Washington yesterday was 105 degrees Fahrenheit.\n\n## SAAR BASIN LOAN\n\nNEW YORK, July 8th. The complete success is announced of the four million dollar seven per cent.

EARLIER CABLES THROUGH REUTER'S AGENCY.] \n\n## POWERS AND CHINA. \n\nPROFUSION OF QUESTIONS IN COMMONS. \n\nLONDON, July 8th. In the House of Commons at question time Mr. Austen Chamberlain declared that no proposal for severance of diplomatic relations with the Soviet Government was under consideration by His Majesty's Government. The Diplomatic Body at Peking was considering a joint reply to the fourteen points contained in the Chinese Government's note. He was not aware of any conflict of opinion between the Powers with regard to the reasonableness of the demands. \n\nMr. Beckett declared that the American Press widely stated that the American representatives were willing to accept, but that the British delegates were holding out. Mr. Chamberlain deprecated being called upon to answer questions with regard to information supplied by the different presses of the world, and emphasised that he was not aware of any conflict between the different Governments. \n\nReplying to Mr. George Lansbury, Mr. Chamberlain said that Russia was not represented on the Commission of Enquiry at Shanghai because Russia was not one of the Treaty Powers. \n\nReplying to Mr. Robinson, he said that no proposals had been received from the Government of the United States for convening an International Conference for the purpose of removing the special privileges of certain nationals in the treaty ports of China and giving the Chinese nation unrestricted control of the import duties. \n\nReplying to Mr. Ammon he said that the Government was not prepared to follow the example of Germany, Austria, and Russia by renouncing extra-territorial privileges in China. Pending the result of the present consultations between the Treaty Powers he was not in a position to add anything to his statement of July 1st. \n\n## GERMAN LOANS. \n\nUNPOPULAR DECISION BY THE REICHSTAG. \n\nBERLIN, July 8th. The Committee of the Bourse has decided to close the Exchange to-day, as a protest against the decision of the Revaluation Committee of the Reichstag to differentiate between old and new holders of paper mark State Loans and grant the latter revaluation at only 2 per cent., compared with 5 per cent. for old holders. \n\nAll other German exchanges closed also. \n\nBankers and financiers generally are of opinion that it will be impossible to carry out such a differentiation, and anticipate that German securities abroad will be adversely affected thereby. \n\nThe Bourse Committee consider that such a differentiation will destroy confidence in German loans. The Committee decreed that until further notice, quotations of the loans of the Reich and Federal States and towns be struck out of the list. \n\n## THE SUBMARINE CABLE. INTERESTING FILM SHOWN IN LONDON. \n\nLONDON, July 8th. \"The Romance of the Submarine Cable,\" a film illustrating the fascinating story of the manufacture, laying, repairing, and everyday work of the cable, was exhibited by the Eastern Associated Telegraph Companies after a luncheon at The Savoy Hotel presided over by the Vice-Chairman, Mr. J. O. Denison Pender. \n\nThe film gives many instances of the everyday life of the Eastern Company's staff ashore and afloat, and the complicated machinery employed for covering the core of the cable is shown in all its processes. \n\n## THE COAL CRISIS. \n\nMR. BALDWIN HOPEFUL. \n\nLONDON, July 8th. In the House of Commons, questioned regarding the coal crisis, Mr. Baldwin said that he thought it was clear that the possibilities for negotiation were not yet exhausted, and appealed to both sides to explore every opportunity for a settlement. \n\nHe disagreed with a Labour member who declared that the deadlock was complete. \n\n## FLYING RECORDS. \n\nAMSTERDAM, July 8th. Mynheer Grase, the chief of the scientific section of the Fokker aeroplane works, flew a standard Fokker D.XIII machine of 450 h.p., with a Napier Lion engine, 100 kilometres at an average speed of 266 kilometres per hour, and 200 kilometres at an average speed of 265 per hour, with a load of 500 kilogrammes. These feats are believed to be world's records. \n\n## 'SOCCER IN AUSTRALIA. \n\nENGLISH TOURISTS WIN AGAIN. \n\nNEWCASTLE, New South Wales, July 8th. The English Association Football team beat Newcastie by 3 goals to nil. \n\n## FRANCO-SIAMESE TREATY. \n\nPARIS, July 8th. The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Chamber adopted a report concluding in favour of the ratification of the Franco-Siamese Treaty.--Reuter. \n\n## SWATOW AFFAIRS. \n\nCOMMUNAL KITCHEN IN KAKCHIOH. \n\n[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] There has been a boycott of British trade since July 1st. The office staffs of all British concerns left on July 4th and the crews of all British motor-boats are on strike. Europeans, however, are in many cases keeping the motor-boats going. \n\nBeyond the attempt to interfere with trade everything is quiet and there have been no attacks on foreigners other than those reported previously. \n\nA communal kitchen is being maintained in Kakchioh and provides two meals daily for the twenty residents there. H.M.S. `Bluebell` makes all the bread for the bluejackets have been helping them and doing some of the washing and assisting in the preparation of the meals ashore. \n\n## SEARCHERS FILMED. \n\nTO BE USED AS CHINESE PROPAGANDA? \n\nSpecial Constable Smith, who was in charge of a squad of Sikhs searching vehicles on Thibet Road, Shanghai, is wondering whether the police activities, which drew a large crowd on this occasion, are to be featured in some Chinese film drama or will be used for propaganda showing the foreigners' interference with the rights of Chinese in the Foreign Settlement, says the `Peking and Tientsin Times`. \n\nAs the foreign constable and his men were holding up some rickshas, a motor car, No. 4743, came upon the scene. The driver promptly put on the brakes, and calmly sat back in his seat and watched events while the occupants of the car proceeded to film it! Before the amazed constable could inquire of the motorists as to what their intentions were, the car drove off again. \n\n## HOME CRICKET. \n\nOXFORD v. CAMBRIDGE. \n\nLONDON, July 8th. The inter-Varsity match, Oxford against Cambridge, played at Lords, was drawn. Oxford batted first and made 350, Stewart Brown scoring 56 and Guise 58. Cambridge then went in and made 409, the principal scorers being Duleep Sinhji 75, Crawley 98 and Enthoven 129. The last-named player scored 104 last year and has thus equalled William Yardley's inter-Varsity record of scoring two centuries. Yardley's centuries were made in 1870 and 1872 Oxford's second innings had produced 214 for six wickets when time was called, Brown scoring 69, and Holmes 68. \n\n## SINGAPORE BASE PROGRESS. \n\nLONDON, July 8th. \n\nIn the House of Commons, replying to Commander Kenworthy, Mr. Bridgeman described the progress of work on the new dockyard at Singapore in preparation for dredging work for the berth of the floating dock on arrival of the dredging fleet in November. \n\n## FIGHTING IN MOROCCO. \n\nRIFFS PREPARING OFFENSIVE. \n\nPARIS, July 8th. A message from Fez says the French northward of Wezzan evacuated two advanced posts after the removal of stores and destruction of defences. A later despatch reports that Riffs mustered ten thousand rifles in the Wergba region where they are endeavouring to win over tribes. The enemy is apparently aiming at a new and intensified offensive against Fez from the north to the south. \n\n## FALL FROM WINDOW BEAUTIFUL BARONESS KILLED AFTER DANCE. \n\nNEW YORK, July 8th. Baroness Helen Zurmuhlen, who is understood to have come from Java, fell early this morning from her seventh-floor fashionable apartment at the Carlton Hotel and was killed. \n\nThe accident was apparently due to the heat wave. The Baroness had been dancing and had stepped to the window to get a breath of air, when her friends were horrified to see her topple over and fall to the roof of the Japanese garden far below. Her diamond ear-rings were dashed from their settings as she fell. She should have sailed on the `Berengaria` to-day to join her husband who is believed to be in the Dutch diplomatic service. Prior to her marriage, the Baroness was the beautiful Miss Helen Carruthers, of San Antonio. \n\n## U.S. HEAT WAVE. NINE DEATHS IN TWO DAYS. \n\nNEW YORK, July 8th. The East United States are in the grip of a heat wave from which at least nine deaths have taken place in two days. \n\nViolent thunderstorms have only temporarily relieved the sweltering millions. The temperature at Washington yesterday was 105 degrees Fahrenheit. \n\n## SAAR BASIN LOAN. \n\nNEW YORK, July 8th. The complete success is announced of the four million dollar seven per cent.

        "content_text": "## PUBLIC WORKS\n\n### BUILDINGS\n\nDuring the year progress as stated was made on the following works:\n\n#### Hong Kong\nThe New Fire Brigade Station proceeded satisfactorily and was nearing completion by the end of the year. The following works were completed: Senior Officers Quarters, Gough Hill, New Architectural Office, and Entrance to New Queen's Pier. The New Sisters Quarters to the Government Civil Hospital were nearly completed, and good progress was made on the New King's College and alterations to the Victoria Hospital. New Queen's College site approached completion. Open markets at Whitfield and Quarry Bay were finished.\n\n#### Kowloon\nThe New Hospital was practically finished and partly occupied by the end of the year, and married quarters for Police were erected at Mong Kok and Tsim Sha Tsui Police Stations.\n\n#### New Territories\nThe work of piling for the foundations of the new Gaol was completed, and married quarters for Police were erected at a number of the police stations. Kowloon City and Shamshuipo Police Stations were finished.\n\n### COMMUNICATIONS\n\n#### Hong Kong\nRoad contouring Wongneichung and Tai Hang Valley, and access road from Stubbs Road to War Memorial Hospital site, made good progress. Main road from Causeway Bay to Quarry Bay made fair progress in places. Road connecting Robinson Road with Conduit Road was begun, and good progress made. Improvements were continued on Kennedy, Conduit, Victoria, and Shaukiwan Roads.\n\n#### Kowloon\nWork on the removal of the hill obstruction at the junction of Nathan and Coronation Roads made good progress. Waterloo Road Extension North and East, Tokawan Road, and Chatham Road Extension, Mongkok-Kowloon City Road made good progress. Several streets in Yaumati were raised to new levels.\n\n#### New Territories\nWidening of Fan Ling-Au Ha Gap Road to 20 ft. and extension to Shataukok made good progress. Widening of bridges on Castle Peak-Fan Ling Road to 20 ft. put in hand. Improvements to the Coastal Road and the metalling and tar painting of New Territories roads were continued, and several bridges were widened.\n\n### DRAINAGE\n\n#### Hong Kong\nA 7'6 concrete culvert from Leighton Hill Road to Praya was finished.\n\n#### Kowloon\nThe Extension of the Mongkoktsui nullah to the Old Kowloon Boundary was completed. Ma Tau Chung nullah made slow progress.\n\n## \n\nNo University hostel at present exists for women students, whose right to admission to the University was first recognised in 1921, but some arrangements for the accommodation of a few women students in a rented building have been made by the authorities of St. Stephen's Girls' College, a Church of England girls' school which is near the University. The nuns of a neighbouring Italian convent are also prepared to house a few women students.\n\nThe tuition fee is $300; the hostel fee, which includes board and lodging, is $300. A student who is allowed to live in a hostel during a vacation—some have to because of their work, e.g., medical students, and others because their homes are too far away—pays at the rate of $8 a week. When a student joins, he is required to deposit caution money to the extent of $25 and to pay a registration fee of $5. The annual subscription to the University Union is $15, and this covers the annual subscription to practically all the athletic clubs. The graduation fee is $25. Probably about $1,200 represents the minimum amount which, at present prices, would cover a student's annual expenses, including vacations. It would cost a Chinese student who goes abroad $2,500 a year at the very least, and this would not cover travelling expenses.\n\nNumerous scholarships are available, including the King Edward VII Scholarships founded by His Majesty's Government. There are also scholarships provided by the Government of Hong Kong, of the Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States, of Kedah, and Siam.\n\nThe Union is the centre of the social life of the students. It is at once a Club and a centre of athletics. The Union Committee contains certain members of the University teaching staff, but its President and Secretary are undergraduates elected by the undergraduates. The undergraduate members of the Committee are also elected by their fellow students. There is a Union magazine with English and Chinese sections. The editors are students; a member of the teaching staff acts as assistant editor. There are some twenty women students; these women students are all members of the Union.\n\nThe students of the University come from Kwangtung, Chihli, Hankow, Hupeh, Yunnan, Hunan, Shanghai, Pekin, Fukien, Singapore, Penang, Kuala Lumpur, Kedah, Jahore, Java, Manila, Burma, Siam, Japan, India, and Macao. The present enrolment is 300, of whom about 250 are Chinese and 50 non-Chinese. Of the Chinese students, some 134 come from Kwangtung and Hong Kong, 50 from the Federated Malay States, and 18 from Java. Students from other places outside China number about ten.\n\nThe behaviour of the students of the University throughout the troubles connected with the strike and boycott was admirable. It is true that when the strike and boycott began in June, the University was in vacation; but at the time, there were more than one hundred students in residence. The University re-opened on its normal date in September. Nearly all the students came back, some at considerable personal risk, and throughout the term which then opened, their whole attitude was one of quiet loyalty to the University.\n\nPage 34\nPage 23\nPage 35",

        "content_text": "## CHINESE HOSPITALITY\n\n### LUNCH AT THE KAM LING RESTAURANT\n\nOnce again the Chinese community of Hong Kong has distinguished itself by extending generous hospitality on the occasion of a Royal visit to the Colony. On Saturday a luncheon was given at the Kam Ling Restaurant, West Point, in honour of H.R.H. the Duke of Gloucester, and the affair was carried out with great success. About 180 gentlemen were present, including over 30 guests. The approach to the restaurant was most elaborately decorated in the Chinese manner, and the dining-room was a mass of beautiful flowers. Festoons added to the brightness of the room.\n\nFlags were used in the decoration. A large crowd had gathered in the streets to witness the arrival of the Royal party at about 12:30. The Duke, who was accompanied by H.E. the Governor, was received by Sir Shou-son Chow, Sir Robert Ho Tung, Dr. Tso, and other prominent members of the Chinese community. A number of Chinese gentlemen had the honour of being introduced to His Royal Highness, who shook hands with them and exchanged a few words of greeting. Lunch was then served immediately, and included the usual choice dishes offered on such occasions—birds' nest soup, turtle, shark fins, etc. There were no speeches, but the toast of \"The King\" was duly honoured. The Duke and party left at about 1:45, His Royal Highness thanking his Chinese friends for their hospitality.\n\nOther guests at the luncheon included members of the Prince's suite, the Governor's staff, Capt. Arbuthnot, of H.M.S. **Suffolk**, members of the Executive and Legislative Councils, and representatives of the leading business houses.\n\nThe following were among those present:\n| Name | Company/Organization |\n| --- | --- |\n| F.

One likes to think of sunshine and blue clouds for such occasions—but it may well be that Prince Henry may be remembered as \"the King's son who brought the rain in time of famine.\"\n\nThe day's events were luncheon at West Point as the guest of the Chinese community; participation in four races at the Jockey Club's fourth extra meeting, Happy Valley, and then the ceremonious leave taking. His Royal Highness, though he did not win any of the events at Happy Valley, proved again that he is a very fine horseman, and few indeed have done so well at their first attempt on the course with a China pony. A full account of the races appears elsewhere.\n\n### DEPARTING FORMALITIES\n\n#### SCENE AT QUEEN'S PIER\n\nPractically the same formalities, only in different order, were observed at His Royal Highness's departure as at his arrival. Accompanied by His Excellency the Governor, the Royal visitor, who wore the tropical uniform of the 10th Hussars, arrived by car followed by three cars containing other members of the staff. They were preceded as usual by members of the police flying squad.\n\nIn front of the pier the guard of honour was provided by 3/15 Punjabis Regiment, the band and pipe and drum band of the battalion also being present.\n\nOn the pier, as at the landing, were the members of the Legislative Council, a number of Senior Naval, Military, and Air Force Officers, including Vice-Admiral A. K. Waistell and Major-General Sandilands, and prominent members of the Chinese community.\n\nAfter the National Anthem had been played and the Royal Salute given, Prince Henry and His Excellency inspected the Guard.\n\nPage 66\n\nF.

        "content_text": "4\n\nfore, only affects goods actually produce in the Colony or imported for consump-tion therein, making the former relatively dearer and the latter cheaper. However, as one of Hong Kong's chief exports is \"services\" this latter handicap on exports is more serious than would appear at first sight. Trade-handling charges of every des-cription whether coolies wages, godown charges, insurance commissions, agents' costs, etc., etc., all are 15% dearer than in Shanghai on account of currency considera-tions alone.\n\nOn the other hand there is one effect which is undoubtedly beneficial, the steadiness of exchange. If the note currency had followed silver movements more closely, exchange fluctuations would have been more frequent than they have been.\n\nI should not conclude my remarks on the effects of the premium without re-ferring to the feeling of nervousness and insecurity the premium causes creditors vis-a-vis debtors. The higher the premium goes the greater the temptation to a debtor to discharge his debt (originally contracted in notes) by repaying silver dollars under the plea that they were legal tender thereby benefiting to the extent of the premium rate.\n\n(b) The cause which brings about the premium is complex and obscure. The premium is of course merely an expression of the excess of the demand for notes over the supply. The note issue must in accordance with financial doctrine and sound banking practice be limited. The demand for notes is on the other hand practically unlimited. as it resolved itself in practice into the amount of legal silver dollars available for importation into the Colony which when eventually tendered to the Banks constitute a demand for notes. The extent of the note issue is $64,103,409. a generous allowance for the needs of the Colony proper, whereas the number of British dollars minted is about $200,000,000 irrespective of the number of Mexican dollars.\n\nOne unquestioned cause of the premium is the convenience and portability of the note. It is more easily carried and what is perhaps more important in a semi lawless land, concealed. However, the degree of convenience possessed by the note vis-a-vis the cumbersome silver dollar cannot alter much from year to year. Con-venience therefore cannot be the sole factor operating, Otherwise the premium would remain more or less constant. There must therefore be other contributory causes which are not constant and depend on political vicissitudes and market fluc-tuations. This variable element must resolve itself finally into a surplus of demand for Hong Kong currency which has now become in practice nothing but Hong Kong bank notes for the following reasons:-\n\nFor many years the commercial medium of South China was the Mexican dollar and the 20 cts. piece minted in Canton. Both circulated in the Colony as well and were imported and exported without restriction. Exchange then followed silver parity and any local departures therefrom could never exceed the bullion points, i.e., the points where either exportation or importation became profitable. The note premium was small being merely an expression of its convenience for circulation locally. Then a double change took place. The 20 cts. piece began to displace the Mexican dollar which was the better coin. Provincial dollars of inferior fineness began to appear and completed the process of driving the Mexican dollar out of South China. Then the provincial dollar and the 20 cts. piece were in their turn subsequently debased below their original standard of fineness and generally speaking progressive debasement marked each successive issue. In Hong Kong though it had always been the policy to adhere as closely as possible to the currency of China. action had to be taken and in 1912 Chinese subsidiary coins and provincial dollars had to be barred from circulation. In South China the value of the silver currency became too uncertain to be accepted as a reliable currency and as result the Colony's commercial hinterland had no option but to adopt the only uniformly safe currency that remained namely the Hong Kong bank note. The British dollar never circulated in China to any extent and even if it had, the universal currency law that a bad coin drives a good coin out of circulation would have operated just as it did with the Mexican dollar. The Colony itself had to follow suit, being the commercial cen-tre of South China and consequently the note became established as the sole com-\n\na\n\n5\n\nmercial medium in actual practice. (How pressing is South China's need for a stable currency is shewn by the large circulation of the Straits dollar note in the Swatow and Amoy districts though it is on a gold basis and entirely alien to the Chinese currency system. It was introduced no doubt by the returned emigrants from the Straits). In Shanghai where the tael which is only a theoretical weight of silver formed the basis of currency the position remained unaltered, and consequent-ly there exchange must follow moderately closely the movements of silver.\n\nThe problem now returns to the consideration of the causes underlying the de-mand for Hong Kong currency which as we see means the notes now the effective medium of commerce not only here but in the neighbouring provinces. The pre-mium excess when the constant \"convenience\" factor is deducted signifies that there must be a surplus balance of exports (or the equivalent thereof) from the Colony's hinterland. When such is the case, final settlement of the balance has to be effected by the transference to the exporting country of its currency or rather of the currency regarded as such. Had the balance been the other way South China would have had to part with notes.\n\nBut such information as is available fails to shew any abnormal balance of exports. Actually both exports and imports are at a low ebb and the surplus of the former cannot be considerable. There is however the important factor of invisible exports i.e. the export of the services of the Southern Chinese who are working abroad and remitting their savings home. The prosperity of the rubber and tin-mining industries and the cheapness of silver has undoubtedly stimulated emigrants' remittances. Consequently the Banks have to pay out in notes on drafts from Singapore, Java, U.S.A., etc., very considerable sums entirely independent of trade considerations, i.e., they are continually receiving gold currency for exchange into notes without any counterbalancing demand for foreign currency to meet payments for imports.\n\nIt should in this connection be remembered that these remittances being the equivalent of an invisible export are like other exports from China, unaffected by the premium of the Hong Kong note. In other words they either remain on deposit in the Colony or if they are remitted into the country they fetch correspondingly as many 20 cent pieces by virtue of the premium as they would have had they been converted into such directly from the gold currency, of origin in accordance with the parity of silver.\n\nLike all note\n\nThere may be other factors operating to bring the premium about. The note issue is necessarily limited by law though probably at a figure ample for the normal trade requirements of Hong Kong and its commercial hinterland. issues but unlike metallic currency it contracts automatically by withdrawal from circulation of all notes not required to finance trade. But it does not expand so readily beyond the fixed limits on account of deterrents. For instance the banks have then to deposit dollar for dollar with the Government, losing interest thereon, pay initial printing costs and subsequent registering and renewing costs, and in addition pay a 1% stamp tax per annum. Unless then the issue can be readily and profitably utilised at a counterbalancing profit, the banks will hardly have a sufficient inducement to increase their issue and keep circulation elastic.\n\n(c) As regards the possibility of removing the premium or rather reducing it to a constant percentage based on the \"convenience\" factor numerous suggestions have been made. In theory numerous methods to that end present themselves but all are open to objection for either political or financial reasons.\n\nIf\n\n1. Theoretically the only ideal and infallible method is a gold basis currency. It would however completely divorce Hong Kong from the currency of China. China adopted an identical gold basis currency the objection would disappear but until then the objection is insuperable.\n\n2. Hong Kong might mint its own silver dollar like the Straits and make it legal tender to the exclusion of the Mexican dollar. The new currency if rigidly controlled could be kept at par with the note. However the existing stock of British dollars in circulation in Hong Kong and held by the Banks as specie reserve\n\n?\n\n60",

In a room in a house close to Anopheline breeding places, catching was done for 27 nights; the average catch per night worked out at 2 Anophelines.\n\nIn the same locality, day catching between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. for 67 days averaged 10 per day or 3 per hour, which were nearly all A. minimus. Dissections of Anophelines mosquitoes caught in January, February, and March revealed no infections. In April, there was 1 infection out of 139 dissected; in May, none; in June, 3 out of 304; in July, 46 out of 517. All these were A. minimus. In July, the sporozoite rate was 5%. Now, if 2 A. minimus can be caught in a bedroom every night during July, 62 would have been caught, and of these 62, 3 would have had sporozoites in their salivary glands and so be capable of infection whoever they bit, so that the chances of persons not protected by nets getting malaria during the months of high mosquito infection are by no means slight. Culicine biting pests have their uses by making people use mosquito nets, which they are inclined to dispense with if only a few non-obtrusive Anophelines are present, which are not very noticeable. The obtaining of Anophelines in quantity for dissections in this part of the world has not so far been found an easy task; those of A. minimus forming the great majority in both day and night catches.\n\nIf the blood of persons suffering from filarial infection is taken late in the evening or at night and examined under the microscope, it is often found swarming with little worms. If a mosquito feeds on such a person, these worms find their way into the insect's stomach and from thence to the muscles of its thorax, and undergo development there if the mosquito is a suitable host. From the thoracic muscles, the worms make their way through the neck into the head and finally come to rest in the proboscis. When the mosquito proceeds to bite a victim, the sheath opens, and the worms make their way through the end of it onto the skin and pass through the skin into the body, where they attain sexual maturity. The female gives rise to numerous embryos, which find their way into the blood and can be demonstrated there as already mentioned.\n\nThe worms in the mosquito are known as larval filaria; the adult worm in the human body as filaria; and the worm in the blood as microfilaria. In some parts of the world, filarial infection gives rise to Elephantiasis; in other parts, enlarged glands are a prominent feature; in others, affections of the genitals. There is a disease called heartworm in dogs, which, I understand, occurs in the Island. A mosquito said to be Culex fatigans is the vehicle by which this filarial infection is carried from one dog to another in a similar fashion to the human infection. Sir Patrick Manson discovered other species of filaria—Filaria corvi-torquati in the white-necked crow and Filaria perstans (possibly a typo, common name is Filaria pecemedia is not corrected as per rule 7) in a magpie. So, when one finds larval filarial infection in a Culicine or Anopheline mosquito, it does not always follow that the infection is derived from human sources. A. minimus has been found infected with larval filaria to the extent of 3.5% in an area where 13 out of 106 persons harboured microfilaria in their blood. Up to date, five A. minimus have been met with infected both with malaria and larval filaria.\n\nA Brief Account of Mosquitoes\n\n215\n\nEpidemics of Dengue take place from time to time in Hong Kong.\n\nIn many parts of the world, Aedes argenteus is considered to be the carrier. The infection cannot be demonstrated in the mosquito by means of a microscope as in the case of malarial infection or filarial infection. This mosquito is the great carrier of yellow fever. In Hong Kong, I have seldom encountered this insect, which is a small black and white mosquito with a lyre-shaped device on the back of its thorax, but Aedes albopictus, which closely resembles it, is very common. Aedes albopictus has a single white stripe on the back of the chest. It has been experimentally infected with dengue in the Philippines, and mosquitoes infected in Java by feeding on dengue patients have been kept alive and sent to Amsterdam, where they infected volunteers in that city.\n\nThe Hong Kong Naturalist.\n\nDecember 1932.\n\n200",

The denominator of the fraction indicates the number of children examined at the place, the numerator the number with enlarged spleens. If a line be drawn on the map from Sandy Bay to R.B.L. 2380, it will divide the circle into a small and a large sector, in the small sector 26 children were examined, 19 had enlarged spleens or 73.08%. In the large section 124 children were examined, 3 of which had enlarged spleens or 2.43%. \n\nIn 1932 a complete survey of the area was done during the period April 25th - May 20th: partial surveys were done in June, and in September, and a complete survey during December. 3878 A. maculatus larvae, 33 A. hyrcanus, 1 A. minimus, were found in the April and May survey; 245 A. maculatus in the June; 869 A. maculatus, 2 A. minimus in the September one, but at the end of the year 1615 A. maculatus larvae, 274 A. minimus. Practically all the larvae of A. minimus were found within the smaller sector of the circle (where the children with enlarged spleens were) and one adjacent to it, elsewhere they occurred in small numbers. From this it would appear that A. maculatus is of no great importance as a carrier of malaria in comparison with A. minimus.\n\nThere does not appear to be any very obvious reason as to why A. minimus larvae should be found in one sector in comparative abundance and not in the other. From their origin as far as Pokfulam Road, the streams are of the usual type, boulder-strewn, with rocky beds, flowing between the spurs of the ridge in their courses towards the sea, with bushes, shrubs, and trees growing on the banks, but as is usual in this Colony, in only a few places providing sufficient shade to inhibit A. maculatus or A. minimus laying their eggs in the water. Between Pokfulam Road and the sea, other factors come into play, as regards B and the tributaries on its left bank and streams C, D, E. In the lower part of B next to Sandy Bay, the stream is used by laundry men for the daily washing of clothes; no larvae were found there, no doubt owing to the action of the soap on the water. Just above Victoria Road, the branches on the left bank contain washing places, with the same results. From hence onward as far as stream E, most of the land is cultivated by the Dairy Farm. On the slopes are several cattle byres and pig yards; the drainage from these usually finds its way into a sump and is delivered daily into a system of irrigation ditches for the purposes of enriching the soil and only occasionally finds its way directly into the hill streams. The manure is stored in shelters with cement floors and is used for fertilizing purposes. Guinea grass (Panicum maximum) is grown for the use of the cattle. Very few A. minimus were found in these portions of the streams within the cultivated areas, but neither were they found in abundance above the Pokfulam Road, except in a branch on the right bank of stream A. Below this road, they were found in a branch on the left bank of A, and in most abundance in B. It is possible that A. maculatus can tolerate a higher degree of pollution than A. minimus and can flourish in pools and streams with a swifter current than A. minimus can exist in.\n\n139 \n\nRepetition of Repulse Bay area Survey. \n\nA survey was made in a ravine at Repulse Bay during April; there had been a previous spell of dry weather, and in this instance, as many larvae of A. minimus were collected as of A. maculatus. Similar results were obtained in a previous survey done in 1930 after the rains.\n\n(e) MOSQUITO NUISANCES. \n\nComplaints as to above were investigated at Lai Chi Kok Gaol (female), the Peak District, Stubb's Road, Shek O, St. John's Cathedral. Aedes albopictus was the culprit at the Cathedral; C. fatigans in the other localities. At the Peak, the larvae of C. fatigans were found in abundance in the water in gully traps. There had previously been a prolonged spell of dry weather and consequently no flushing out of the gully traps by showers. At Shek O, the larvae were found in the aerobic compartment of a septic tank; other septic tanks examined in the locality were found to have both compartments covered with a thick scum, and no larvae were found.\n\nMosquitoes captured and sent in by residents of Pokfulam were identified as C. fatigans, although numerous breeding places of A. maculatus were in the vicinity; none of these figured in the catch. In this connection, a complaint regarding biting insects was made by the Principal of Victoria Home, Kowloon. These were considered to belong to the Gamasidae and to be derived from birds nesting in the roof. Recommendations for dealing with the nuisance were made accordingly in all instances.\n\n(f) INSTRUCTION OF PROBATIONERS AND TEACHING OF MOSQUITOLOGY. \n\nThe instruction of the probationers was continued during the year.\n\nAs no local infections were forthcoming from the dissections made in the early months, material was obtained from Dr. Walch, Java, and Dr. Manalang of the Philippines for the purposes of demonstration. The probationers have now had considerable practice in the diagnosis of infected midguts and salivary glands. They can make permanent mounts and stained preparations of such. They can recognize microfilaria and malarial parasites in thick blood films. They can undertake permanent preparations of the hypopygia. They have had considerable experience in obtaining Anophelines for dissecting and in keeping them alive in the Laboratory until required, in the rearing of mosquitoes from larvae, and in associating any particular larva with the corresponding mosquito.\n\n152",

        "content_text": "## Visit Returned\n\nGen. Huang's response to the toast was delivered in Cantonese and interpreted by Col. Li Fong, who stated:\n\nWe have come from Canton to return the visit of His Excellency the Governor, Sir Andrew Caldecott, and it is most kind of you to entertain us so warmly to-night, for which we have to thank you heartily. Last year the members of the Hongkong General Chamber of Commerce visited Canton, and the arrangements made for you at our end were so imperfect in comparison with your liberal hospitality to-night that we feel rather ashamed of ourselves.\n\nYour Chairman, in his speech, has just showered praise on our country and on us but I feel that we do not deserve such laudation. His remarks on the economic depression and trade development we feel we can endorse, and we are willing to make a common effort to secure their early realisation.\n\nOur sages say \"He who expects of others must himself be expected.\" This is true and if we desire mutual existence and mutual prosperity we must seek co-operation and work for mutual benefits. Let us then hope for the future prosperity of Hongkong and Canton.\n\n## Warm Welcome\n\nMr. Tseng, responding, said:\n\nI am happy to tell you how much we appreciate your warm welcome to-night and how deeply we have been impressed by the remarkable programme you have made for us. As a result of our visit here we have made personal contacts with your high government officials and we have had to-night the opportunity of meeting you, which will no doubt further cement the ties of friendship between Hongkong and Canton. I must thank you for the complimentary remarks your Chairman has just made in regard to the progress which China has achieved in recent years, and I want to take this opportunity of emphasising that this is just the beginning of our industrial expansion and economic reconstruction. We have carried out only a very small part of Dr. Sun Yat-sen's programme for international reconstruction and a great deal has yet to be accomplished. Dr. Sun Yat-sen's plans provided for the construction within 10 years of 1,000,000 miles of highways and 100,000 miles of railroads, but to-day in this country we have only 100,000 kilometres of highways and 11,000 kilometres of railway lines, less than a tenth of what we should have had, and woefully inadequate.\n\nIn the heavy industries we have made practically no start. The progress that has been made in the last decade has been achieved in spite of the formidable, indeed, almost insuperable difficulties within and without.\n\nOn the eve of our great commercial and industrial expansion we need foreign sympathy and support and we want to give everyone a chance to share in that advance.\n\n## Assistance From Abroad\n\nWe welcome economic assistance from the advanced industrial nations. As we have a population of over 450,000,000 China is indisputably the biggest market in the world. I think you will agree with me that China's prosperity will be a tremendous aid to world trade and economic recovery. If the purchasing power of our people is so increased that every Chinese can afford to buy $100 worth of merchandise each year, nations will have no need to worry that their manufactured goods will not find a ready market.\n\nIn recent years China has suffered from the great hardship arising from deprivation of valuable territory, internal turmoil, national calamity and financial and economic disorganisation due to America's silver purchasing policy all of which served as obstacles to threaten the industrial development and thus affect investments.\n\nCanton has embarked on an extensive programme of economic reconstruction and we seek your co-operation in carrying out our projects. We have made our plans for the development of the harbour, communications and transportation services: we are proceeding with our Whampoa port development scheme which I believe will be advantageous to South China and will help the prosperity that is so earnestly desired both by you and ourselves. I assure you that we are prepared to take the necessary steps to secure the removal of former obstacles to development (Applause). We are making a genuine effort to abolish unequal taxes, stamp out monopolies as well as other impediments to trade between our two cities.\n\nI note with gratification several steps taken by Hongkong towards closer co-operation, including the granting of facilities to Chinese merchant vessels and to Chinese mail and passenger aircraft. It is our firm hope that this spirit of co-operation will be continued and you have our assurance that your friendly gesture will be fully reciprocated. (Applause).\n\n## Mr. Ho Tsah-ping\n\nMr. Ho Tsah-ping said:\n\nI am so much impressed by the splendid reception you are giving us that I find considerable difficulty in expressing my thanks to you in proper terms.\n\nOn May 25 last year, I presided over a gathering of the representatives of business interests of Hongkong and Canton, in the building of Canton City Chamber of Commerce, the British Goodwill Mission, of which some of the gentlemen present were members, being the guests of honour.\n\nI even went so far as to remark that the businessmen of Hongkong and Canton lacked the kind of intimacy which helps to promote their confidence in one another. For instance, some British firms are too cautious in dealings with the Cantonese people, and consequently the latter have to seek elsewhere for easier terms and more favourable conditions. I therefore attached great weight to the constant touch among the business representatives of the two trading centres, and proposed that exchange of information and suggestions would improve trade and credit. I have the pleasure to tell you that my guests and friends agreed with me in this point. Canton and Hongkong are mutually dependent ports. It is needless to say that Hongkong, which is in some way privileged to give financial and technical help to Canton, has the greatest interest in its industrial and commercial developments. The unification of China, the completion of the Hankow-Canton Railway, the reformations effected by the Canton Government, such as the abolition of the exorbitant taxes, are beneficial to trade. I feel that prosperity is at hand; the more so when we can establish intimacy among ourselves by frequent receptions like this.\n\nSir Frederick Leith-Ross shares the same opinion with me, and suggested to me personally in Canton that the leading business men of Hongkong and Canton should organise a permanent Trade Commission to promote their trade interest. He said that the Chambers of Commerce of our cities would take charge of its organisation. Similar Trade Commissions exist in Shanghai and work with good results.\n\nMr. Chairman and gentlemen, before I sit down, I wish to draw your attention to Sir Frederick's suggestion, and ask you to accept my very sincere thanks for the hospitality you are showing us this evening.\n\n## The Hosts\n\nThe following members of the Chamber of Commerce and China Association (Hongkong Branch) were present as hosts:\n\n| Name | Company/Organisation |\n| --- | --- |\n| Mr. D.

Smalley, Acting Director of Medical Services, tackled the situation and on whose shoulders the brunt of the work fell. He was ably assisted by the staff of the Medical Department, all members of which worked hard and co-operated to the fullest extent.\n\nThe Port Health Office, under Dr. T. Ware, were kept particularly busy. The staff had to be increased to deal with the enormous numbers coming into the Colony, which included several large batches of Refugees from Shanghai.\n\nThe staff was also made responsible for the control and distribution of anti-Cholera vaccine.\n\nThe Doctors and Nursing Staff who attended the cases deserve special credit. They had, perforce, to work under most trying conditions in the recently vacated old Govt. Civil Hospital. There was a period of nearly five weeks when the average daily admissions to hospital were 40, and on one particular day there were actually 64 admissions.\n\nThe Chinese Hospitals, viz. the Tung Wah, the Kwong Wah, and the Tung Wah Eastern, co-operated fully. Most of the cases were taken to one or other of these hospitals in the first instance, and any showing suspicious signs were immediately isolated, and arrangements made for their transfer to the Infectious Diseases Hospital. Close touch was kept with these institutions throughout, and the harmonious co-operation maintained was of great value.\n\nThe Police detailed for duty with the Port Health Staff were of great assistance, especially in searching ships at night and in putting some semblance of order into the mass of",

        "content_text": "## Canton Development and Japanese Interests\n\n5 \n\nMr. Kaku Tei Shun, a Formosan millionaire. \nMr. Kyo Shin Jo, Formosan member of the Governor-General's Advisory Council. \nMr. I. Nakamura, director of the Taiwan Warehousing Company and president of the Takao Chamber of Commerce. Mr. S. Umeno, president of the Higashi Taiwan Shimbun.\n\nThe following also were due to go, but were prevented by illness: Mr. K. Matsuki, president of the Taiwan Electric Power Company. \nMr. T. Matsuoka, president of the \"Taiwan Shimbun.\" \nMr. Miyamoto, president of the Taiwan Nippo.\n\n(iv) An investigation party under Viscount Inouye, containing scientific experts from Japan as well as Formosa, left in late January. (v) Dr. Shiratori, another scientist, left with assistants about the same time. (vi) Mr. Miura, of the Tainan Agricultural Experimental Station, with two assistants have gone to inspect the farms of the Chuzan University.\n\nOf the above, the last three parties would appear to be still in China. Viscount Inouye has stated that the sugar interests are heavily represented on the expert missions. Of the parties that have returned, Mr. Ida and Mr. Morioka have made public statements.\n\n### Statements by Mr. Ida and Mr. Morioka\n\n11. The director-general's statement consists largely, but not entirely, of civilities addressed to the army, and political platitudes. Mr. Ida's statement has a good deal more meat. Mr. Ida stresses that a good deal of time will be needed for the restoration of factories in Canton, but both statements emphasise that the nearby city of Fatshan (300,000 inhabitants) has suffered very little damage, and there seems to be a suggestion that its development may precede that of Canton. Evidently the motor road between the two cities is in passable condition, as Mr. Morioka visited Fatshan by car, while Mr. Ida stresses the existence of numerous creeks in the immediate vicinity of Fatshan, which provide excellent facilities for water transport. He also states that there are three sugar mills at Fatshan; according to him, all are somewhat damaged, but in this connexion it should be noted that a press statement in Part IV of this report alleges that the Formosa Development Company has found a sugar mill which can be operated immediately (whether in Fatshan or elsewhere is not stated). Mr. Morioka states that in Fatshan public order is good, and that the Japanese soldiers are fraternising with the inhabitants. The surrounding district is said to be rich in rice and sugar, though food production has hitherto been insufficient for the population, making import necessary. Mr. Ida further states that the silk industry has good prospects, though hitherto it has been depressed by maladministration. He also claims that there are minerals, which will be developed, and that subsidiary industries (presumably for refining the ore, &c.) will be established locally.\n\n12. As regards political conditions in Canton, Mr. Morioka claims that 400,000 citizens have returned, though they are mainly of the lower classes, and that there is a great desire for the study of the Japanese language among the populace. He states that two Japanese schools were opened on the 11th January, with an intended capacity of 200 to 300 students, but 700 presented themselves on the first day; it was thought inexpedient to turn any away, and, despite over-crowding, all were admitted. He also claims that the Hakuai Hospital, which was reopened from the 20th December, is filled above capacity; as a result of which a second medical party was to arrive shortly.\n\n## Canton Development\n\n13. Reports are still slightly conflicting, but there has been no contradiction so far of the report that the Central Government has no intention of establishing a separate development company for South China; and it would appear that general development plans at Canton are to be in the hands of the Formosa Development Company, although a fairly recent report states that its subsidiary, Fukudai Koshi, which was to have been relegated to Fukien, is running a hotel in Canton, the \"Taiwan-kan\" and operating bus services and electric light at Fatshan. The grip of the Formosa Development Company over Fukudai Koshi has, however, been tightened by the purchase by the former of the 500,000 yen's worth of shares in Fukudai Koshi, previously held by Kochu Koshi.\n\n14. Mr. Takayama, a director of the Formosa Development Company, was sent to Canton in the middle of November to work out schemes of development, and Mr. Retsu Kawada, a member of the House of Peers, and ex-Vice-Minister of Overseas Affairs, has been appointed a financial counsellor to the company, with the special duty of advising on South China development. To meet the various schemes proposed, there was talk of quintupling the nominal capital of the company to 150 million yen; but the only responsible admission so far is Mr. Morioka's statement before the Budget Committee of the Diet, that the Formosa Development Company will issue debentures for 15 million yen, to be guaranteed by the Formosan Government. The reception of this statement suggests that any several-fold increase of capital would be most difficult of realisation.\n\n15. For the lighting of Canton, two engineers from the Government-General, and sixty-one electricians from the Taiwan Electric Power Company were sent to Canton in November and early December. They reported that the attempted destruction of the lighting plant by the Chinese army had been inefficiently executed, and the plant was to be working again at its full capacity of 22,000 kilowatts before the middle of December. The history of the waterworks is similar, and it also was to be restored by the same time. Both these enterprises appear to be in the hands of the Formosa Development Company; the Taiwan Electric Power Company tried to obtain control of the lighting, but it appears that the Government-General of Formosa stepped in, and insisted on the enterprise going to the Formosa Development Company.\n\n16. It appears that the Japanese intend to make a big thing of sugar in Kwangtung. Professor Hashimoto of the Kyoto Imperial University, a member of the Special Committee for the Control of Formosan Staple Products, was the first oracle, declaring, as early as October, that the Formosan sugar companies should expand their activities to South China and the Formosa Development Company is reported to have secured a mill with a capacity of 500,000 bags of sugar per annum, which is fit to be operated at once. It has been reported that Mr. Ida, after his return from Canton, was to negotiate with the sugar companies for the formation of a joint organisation for activities in South China.\n\n17. A small company, the Taiwan Boeki Kaisha, with a capital of 100,000 yen, has been formed at Takao by one, S. Shoji, for trading with South China and the South Seas. The capital is one-quarter paid up.\n\n18. The Bank of Formosa lost no time in reopening its branch in Canton, but the president of the bank, Mr. Yasuda, has sounded a note of warning, emphasising the need for retaining plenty of liquid capital within Formosa.\n\n19. As the reports so frequently suggest that sugar is to be a main Japanese interest in Kwangtung, it may be well to examine this question a little more closely. Formosa supplies Japan's requirements in sugar, which has for a good many years past been the island's most valuable export crop. The following have been the exports in the last six years:\n\n| Year | To Japan | Abroad | Total |\n|------|----------|---------|-------|\n| 1933 | 9,830    | 101     | 9,931 |\n| 1934 | 11,023   | 23      | 11,045|\n| 1935 | 14,249   | 935     | 15,184|\n| 1936 | 14,274   | 392     | 14,666|\n| 1937 | 14,901   | 367     | 15,268|\n| 1938 (eleven months) | 13,782 | 1,242 | 15,024 |\n\nIt may be argued that the sugar interests will not be keen to assist the growth of a child within the yen bloc, who may eventually challenge their own supremacy. But in reply to this it may be argued that:\n\n(i) Apart from the merest trifle sent to Siam, all the foreign exports have gone to countries which are now to form the \"yen bloc\".\n\n(ii) A gradual closing of the \"open door\" through exchange control or other means will suffice to reduce, as may be required, the supplies of Java sugar which have hitherto been sent to China.\n\nPage 181",

Bisasterod 10\n\nIn the attached telegram recommending the appointment of Mr. D.J. Sloss to be a Member of the Executive Council at Hong Kong, Sir Geoffry Northcote refers to the possibility of a sudden breakdown of his own health. When he had to come away from Hong Kong last summer, Sir G. Northcote left Mr. N.L. Smith, the Colonial Secretary, as O.A.G. (19th May). A few weeks later, however (24th June) the Naval C.-in-C. China and the G.O.C. Hong Kong urged the need to supersede Mr. Smith by the appointment of a military Acting Governor. They said that Mr. Smith lacked decision and drive, and things were muddling along. Accordingly Major Norton was appointed from India.\n\nGeneral Sir G. Northcote told us before he returned to Hong Kong that he expected Mr. N.L. Smith might wish to retire after the Governor's resumption of the administration. Sir G. Northcote has been back in Hong Kong for some two months now, but we have no further news from him as to Mr. N.L. Smith's future. There is, however, in the two telegrams attached a suggested lack of full confidence in Mr. Smith as O.A.G., should the Governor himself become suddenly incapacitated, and this is based on other grounds than those on which the Naval C.-in-C. and the G.O.C. relied in May of last year, -sc: Mr. Sloss would have most valuable steadying influence on interim Governorship...... his knowledge of affairs in China is greatly superior to that of my official advisers”.. Mr. N.L. Smith will be 55 in May next year. He has had excellent reports throughout his career in Hong Kong, and I can only think that his capacity has begun to fail under the strain of war conditions in Hong Kong. His knowledge of the people and language of Southern China could, I have little doubt, be put still to good purpose in the Far East if he were to vacate his present appointment, but the Governor's hints make one feel that it is not safe to leave Mr. N.L. Smith as the prospective O.A.G. at the present juncture if anything were to happen to Sir G. Northcote.\n\nAs a first step I suggest a personal telegram to Sir G.

        "content_text": "# THE TREASURY, \n101 \nHONG KONG, \n23rd February, 1940. \n\nMy dear business,\n\nI am sorry to bother you with a conundrum but in conversation with His Excellency yesterday I said that I did not know what \"profits made in the Colony\" meant and further that I had my doubts as to whether a workable definition could be evolved. He then said in effect that I'd better find out quickly and added that as Mr. C accepted it he probably knew and I should ask him. I protested that being out-voted about 12 to 1 wasn't quite the same thing as \"having accepted a condition\".\n\nHowever, I think perhaps you might care to pass the query on to someone in the Inland Revenue and see what happens.\n\nThis is Huxham on the point:-\n\n\"Chapter IV.- It is sought to tax only profits 'made in the Colony'. If it is meant to tax only part of the profits of a business controlled in the Colony with transactions outside the Colony, I know of no precedent for such a scheme, and I believe it would prove to be utterly unworkable. Such a scheme would mean immense work, endless disputes, and a mass of litigation. It is an Income Tax axiom that if the central control of a business is situated in a certain territory, the whole of the profits of that business 'arise' for Income Tax purposes in that territory. Parts of such profits may also 'arise' for Income Tax purposes at branches and agencies in other territories, and this leads to double taxation for which relief has or ought to be given. It is thus attractive at first sight to seek to tax only profits earned within the territory, and to refuse double tax relief; but in the case of a business extending into several territories how are profits earned within the territory to be computed in all the ramifications and complexities of modern business? A man sitting in an office in Hong Kong may buy goods in Java and sell them in England; the goods may never come within hundreds of miles of Hong Kong, and no document relating to the transaction may be signed in Hong Kong. Where are the profits 'made'? Again, take an importing concern with Head Office in Hong Kong; its London office buys goods, which are imported through Hong Kong, and sold by a branch in China. How much profit is 'made' in Hong Kong?\n\n\"If I were administering the Ordinance as it stands, I should feel bound in the first instance to have assessments made on normal Income Tax principles, viz. that all the profits of e.g. the Hongkong & Shanghai Bank were 'made' in Hong Kong, because the whole business of the bank is controlled from Hong Kong. But I should expect to have such assessments shot to pieces in the Courts, and criteria laid down for determining 'profits made in the Colony' which would prove quite unworkable in practice.\"\n\nI was",

        "content_text": "66 \n\nBefore the end of January, one or two small groups of students had already left Hong Kong on their own initiative with the intention of proceeding to Free China to continue their studies. Many others were anxious to leave but were handicapped by the lack of money for travelling purposes (in this connection, it should be remembered that less than 50% of the students of Hong Kong University had their homes in Hong Kong: nearly half of the students were overseas Chinese from Malaya: others came from Java and Borneo; some from occupied China and others from Free China: in addition, there was a small number of Indians and of Russians from the North). After my own escape from Hong Kong in February 1942, I repeatedly met small groups of students in various places on the way up to Chungking, and in most cases received requests from them for advice and for letters of introduction and certificates of various sorts. Nearly all of these early escapees were coming to China for the first time. Some had been robbed by bandit gangs and others were short of money and of clothes. Many of them were completely at a loss as to how next to proceed.\n\nOn reaching Chungking at about the middle of April, it became apparent to me that the exodus of students from Hong Kong was assuming increasing proportions. I received news of further arrivals in Free China and also got word by telegram that groups of students were stranded in Kweilin and Kweiyang without any further funds. Most of these boys were Straits Chinese and therefore British Subjects, and it became increasingly clear that unless some special form of assistance were rendered to them, they would be involved in considerable hardship. Accordingly, His Excellency Sir Horace Seymour, the British Ambassador to China, was approached, and showed considerable sympathy with a scheme to provide relief for students of Hong Kong University. The scheme covered the need for immediate relief and the more remote needs that might arise after these students had resumed their work at a centre in Free China. Advances were to be made in the form of loans during the time that the students continued to be cut off from the support which their families normally provided. A rough estimate was drawn up on the assumption that about 200 students would need assistance. The estimate included an allowance towards travelling expenses and the purchase of immediate personal requirements of between $1000 and $1250 per head; a monthly allowance of $60 per head and a further allowance of $350 per head for the purchase of special winter requirements. The estimate received provisional approval, and I was requested to make my way back to Kukong via Kweiyang and Kweilin to organise the University Relief Work as a sub-section of the activities of the Hong Kong Refugee Bureau, of which Mr. T.J. Fisher was in general charge. Funds were provided by the Embassy for immediate use, and I left Chungking on 24th April to embark on this project. Before leaving Chungking, I saw Mr. Chu Chia Hua and Mr. Han Lih Wu of the British Boxer Indemnity Administration and explained the nature of the scheme to them. Mr. Han Lih Wu had already shown considerable interest in the question of Hong Kong University Relief and proposed the formation of a small advisory committee to consist of representatives from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Education, the Board of Overseas Affairs, the National Relief Commission, the Commission of Overseas Chinese Affairs, the Sino-British Cultural Association, the British Embassy, and the University of Hong Kong. In this manner, it was hoped to enlist the interest and the assistance of the foregoing organisations in the project and at the same time to avoid duplication of relief effort.\n\nI was absent from Chungking from 24th April to 20th June, and during this time, I made contact in Kweiyang, Liuchow, Kweilin, Pingshek, or Kukong with no less than 127 students. Many of these students were in considerable distress owing to financial shortage, illness (particularly malaria), the unaccustomed hardships of the road, and the lack of the requisite information to enable them to decide where best to continue their studies. Many of the students required temporary financial assistance and advice as to which University to seek entrance. \n\nApart from the provision of urgent need on the part of most suitable University, contact had been made with...",

L.T. Ride (Professor of Physiology) and Messrs. D.H. Morley (Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering) and D.F. Davies (Lecturer in Physics). Shortly afterwards they were followed by Prof. Gordon King (Dean of the Faculty of Medicine) and Mr. A.H. Bentley (Demonstrator in Pharmacy), and later still by twelve Chinese members of the Staff. These included Tohin Yen Koh (Temporary Professor of Chinese History), La Kiam (Lecturer in Chinese), Koh Nye Poh (Lecturer in Electrical Engineering), Chean Tsang Koo (Lecturer in Logic), H.T. Chang (Temporary Lecturer in Engineering), Chang Te Lin (Assistant in Medical Entomology), Yeung Wai Wah, Raymond Lee and Miss Daphne Chun (Assistants to the Clinical Units), King Sing Yue (Demonstrator in Electrical Engineering), Miss Leung Man Wah (Tutor in English) and Li Yin Kei (Tutor in Chinese). In addition, the name of Mr. M.K. Cheng (University Accountant) should be included.\n\nPage 15,\n\nMany of the 47 recent graduates have found employment in Free China. Medical graduates have not experienced great difficulty in finding posts and are serving with such organisations as the Chinese National Red Cross, Medical Unit of the New Life Movement, British Red Cross Unit, Central Midwifery Training School, as well as in Government and Mission Hospitals and in private practice. Engineering graduates have found employment with organisations such as the National Resources Commission, Pearl River Conservancy Board, China Vegetable Oil Corporation and the Hsiang-Kwei Railway. Arts graduates have found teaching posts in some instances, whilst others have taken up secretarial or translation work, one has entered the service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and one has become attached to the Research Department of the Farmer's Bank. Other graduates are still looking for appointments and every opportunity is being taken of finding suitable avenues for them.\n\nRegarding the 255 students, with whom this report is mainly concerned, a point of interest is that, whereas nearly all of the students are British Subjects, only about half of them have their homes in Hong Kong, the remainder coming from the Straits, Borneo, Java and Sumatra, Free China and even India.

The proposal is that Commander-in-Chief British Pacific Fleet should embark from Borneo a military force of about one brigade strength and transport it with all possible speed to Hongkong. It will be relieved, as soon as the Straits of Malacca are open, by forces from S.B.A.C.\n\n(c) The acceptance of the surrender of Japanese forces in Java, Sumatra, and French Indo-China, and the preliminary arrangements for handing back these territories to the Dutch and French.\n\n(d) The occupation of Siam.\n\n5. We should like to have your early agreement in principle (To 2 only) that Australian forces, possibly in conjunction with New Zealand forces, shall initially be responsible for Borneo and all Japanese-occupied territories to the east thereof, including Ocean and Nauru Islands. Some escort and merchant shipping will be made available to you. Will you please let us know your minimum requirements? We will also make arrangements as soon as possible for the provision of cargo and personnel shipping for the maintenance of your forces of occupation in this area.\n\nSince there will be many matters which will need local consultation, we consider it most desirable that liaison missions should be exchanged between the Australian Commander-in-Chief and accordingly.\n\nSubject to your agreement, we will instruct S.A.C.S.E.A.\n\nWe should be glad of information as to your intentions for the employment of the B.E. squadron.\n\nRA,\n\nHaving regard to the share of Canadian troops in the earlier (To 3 only) defence of Hongkong, we would hope to have Canadian participation in the acceptance of surrender and we trust you will agree with this. We suggest that the best way in which this could be effected is by\n\n• Canadian warship sailing with the force sailing under the orders of Commander-in-Chief British Pacific Fleet.\n\nWe hope also that you will agree with the proposal in 8(b) above that Canadian forces shall take part in the occupation of Japan. We will consult you further on the detailed arrangements and should be glad of your suggestions.\n\n7. We are inviting the Australian and New Zealand authorities to accept the surrender of all Japanese forces in Borneo and to the east thereof, and we are making arrangements to provide them with the necessary shipping.\n\n(To 3 only)",

        "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",

Therefore to avoid any misunderstandings I take this opportunity to refer to written remarks that have been received from the outside public.\n\nSo far you have received thirteen replies, eight of which support a Port Trust and five oppose it.\n\nThose in favour are (I give them in the order in which they replied):\n\nHong Kong & Kowloon Wharf & Godown Co. Ltd.\n\nJava-China-Japan Lijn, N.V.\n\nGibb, Livingston & Co. Ltd.\n\nGilman & Co. Ltd.\n\nChartered Bank of India, Australia & China.\n\nW. S. Bailey & Co. Ltd.\n\nDe La Rama Steamship Co.

Sir David Owen's Port Trust is a compromise. This is an incorrect statement.\n\nb.\n\n-\n\nThe inconvenience of decentralization. This is an echo from the Harbour Master's remarks. It only applies to British ships; others sign on and pay off their crews through their Consuls. It would be arranged by a Port Trust in the most convenient way for all concerned. In the foreign port of Basra the bulk of the shipping was British and the British Consul had his shipping office five miles from the port. He could quite easily have been accommodated in the port if it had been necessary, but such a thought was never hinted at. This is not a grave issue.\n\nThe Hon. Mr. Landale intervened in the course of Mr. Colman's remarks that the representation referred to by Mr. Colman as being the views of the Hong Kong & Kowloon Wharf & Godown Company were, in fact, the personal views of Mr. J. Moodie, the Acting Manager and Secretary, and not those of the Directors of the Company.",
