The text includes various sections such as government notifications, news, births, marriages, deaths, and reports on typhoons and their aftermath.\n\n## Step 3\nTo begin proofreading, we need to correct obvious spelling errors, remove extra spaces, and fix hyphenation or line-break artifacts. For example, \"calancity\" should be \"calamity\", \"savo 'ticias\" should be \"said Ticias\", and \"prusion pond\" should be \"prisoner or provision pond\" but based on context, it seems \"prision\" is likely meant to be \"provision\".\n\n## Step 4\nRejoining broken sentences and restoring paragraph breaks where necessary is also crucial. For instance, sentences split across lines without logical reason should be merged.\n\n## Step 5\nThe text contains sections that need to be formatted into Markdown. Headers, sub-headers, bold types, and tables need to be formatted accordingly. For example, main titles should be preceded by \"#\", sections by \"##\", and bold text should be surrounded by \"**\".\n\n## Step 6\nFile references should not have any spacing inside parentheses, e.g., \"XCR (85)72\" should be \"XCR(85)72\". Page numbering lines, if detected, should be kept as they are, usually six lines in total, three at the page beginning and three at the end.\n\n## Step 7\nNewspaper texts might not make sense due to OCR errors in recognizing columns. Reorganizing them like a puzzle might be necessary to restore the original meaning.\n\n## Step 8\nData in tables should be properly organized to reconstruct the table format.\n\n## Step 9\nSome Chinese writing might start from right to left, and if such reversal is observed, the text should be reversed to meet modern reading habits.\n\n## Step 10\nThe output should be in HTML using  for paragraphs and \n only if absolutely necessary.\n\nThe final answer is: \n\nAge\n\nherself and infant daughter, were\n\ncalamity Entirely\n\ncut off.\n\nThat the said \"Ticias smithers the month of January\n\nhundred and forty a proportion\n\nlowa\n\ndy creating\n\n\"\n\nby this\n\nfree\n\nof his to a\n\nprovision pond and the one mouth swore if such proportion been, paid fin cases.\n\nof his saying disabled (your) believes that her late husband would have been entitled to a pension during\n\nthe remainder of his life.\n\n\"That it has\n\nbeen\n\na\n\npetitione.\n\nto your Majesty's governmento always willing to take into consideration\n\nand render assistance to the survivors of\n\npersons killed in their device and a lit...\n\nwill be found on reference to the Police.

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.

        "content_text": "## SEVENTEENTH MEETING.\n\nWednesday, 30th June, 1858, at 12 o'clock Noon.\n\nANDREW LYSAGHT INGLIS, Governor of the Gaol, called and examined.\n\nI recollect so far the general statement made in that letter, and that a day or two after, I was informed by the party from whom I got the information that the connection was the other way. I was applied to by the Governor for a report concerning Ma-chow Wong, and hence this statement. I am giving the matter as mere rumour from individuals, and I would rather decline answering the question who was the particular individual from whom I got this information. I understood Mr Caldwell had adopted Ma-chow Wong, but this particular information was only received through one. I cannot give the commission any general information, as I was absent from the Colony during the years in which the things happened which are now being investigated.\n\nI felt convinced of the fact of Ma-chow Wong's connection with Mr Caldwell when I told the Chief Magistrate of it. It was Mr Caldwell's statement in Court which convinced me I was in error.\n\nI do not, of my own knowledge, know what Mr Caldwell's business connections with Ma-chow Wong were - nothing further than from hearsay. I cannot name anyone who can give information. I don't know anything of my own knowledge about Mr Caldwell's connections with Ma-chow Wong. All that I know is from hearsay from Chinamen, and I believe that is not acceptable as evidence. I never saw Ma-chow Wong to my knowledge until he was handed into my custody.\n\nThe connection was rumoured to be in a variety of ways. I have heard it said that Mr Caldwell's former Chinese wife, Awoon, was exceedingly friendly with Ma-chow Wong in the early period of my residence. I have also heard it mentioned that Awoon had adopted Ma-chow Wong as her adopted son. Awoon is much older than Mr Caldwell; there could not be much difference in age between Awoon and Ma-chow Wong.\n\nFrom what I can recollect, I have since that time heard Mr Caldwell on oath in Court deny that connection in toto, and as I have nothing but hearsay to the contrary, on his having done so, concluded that I was misinformed. I do not know that I have heard it more than once. It was first when Ma-chow Wong was apprehended, when his affairs became the subject of conversation.\n\nI have heard there was a great intimacy between Mr Caldwell and Ma-chow Wong for a number of years. I recollect that in my letter to the Acting Colonial Secretary on the 14th July, 1857, I made an erroneous statement that Ma-chow Wong was connected with Mr Caldwell.\n\nI found myself mistaken in one popular report in which I placed credence, and I might be wrong in others, and therefore do not like to mention other reports I have heard as I might be wrong in them as I was before. I think, probably, I had better decline answering questions as to reputed connections, as I have been already once mistaken.\n\nThe proceedings before the Police Court seldom come to my knowledge; the prisoners are sent into the Gaol on a warrant. I do not recollect the case in which a man was charged with stealing a watch from Mr Lapraik, beyond the mere fact. I do not know whether the charge was got up in the Gaol. I cannot say whether Mr Caldwell was in the Gaol getting evidence on it - Mr Caldwell, as a Justice of the Peace, has permission to enter the Gaol, but I can find out by reference to the books if the day was given me.\n\nInformation has been given to myself, to Mr Caldwell, and to Dr Bridges, by Ma-chow Wong since his conviction, in many different cases, only one case, which I can recollect, in which a man was actually arrested. The information has not invariably been through me in the first place. Ma-chow Wong has been sometimes up in my office and has given me information in the presence of Dr Bridges and Mr Caldwell - he has also given me information personally in the Gaol - he has also, I rather think, given Mr Caldwell information, who has come for that purpose to the Gaol.\n\nI recollect Akü, the Police Court interpreter, being charged with extortion, and that Pang Poi-yeen, a convict, and another convict gave evidence against him. I cannot say of my own knowledge that Ma-chow Wong had any connection with the case, but I recollect it was reported to me at the time by the turnkey, that Ma-chow Wong was very busy going about amongst the prisoners, and that the impression was in Gaol, that he was at the root of the matter.\n\nI think I have written notes to Mr Caldwell about information received from Ma-chow Wong, and I think there was a note written to Mr Caldwell in this particular case. I can't exactly say, there were so many conversations on this subject, but the information may have come first from Kum-yee - one of the political prisoners. The arrest of the prisoner in the case was certainly through information supplied by Kum-yee and Ma-chow Wong conjointly.\n\nRe-examined. When I say hearsay, I mean reputation or rumour current in this Chinese community, as to the nature of the connection between Ma-chow Wong and Mr Caldwell. I know one or two instances of adopted children, in which children adopted by the female are not considered as the adopted of the male, but I am not sufficiently conversant with Chinese usage in this respect to say, positively, whether the adoption by Awoon imports the adoption by Mr Caldwell or not.\n\nI would not consider in the case of a European living with a Chinese concubine, if such concubine had adopted another as her son, or been adopted by another as his daughter, such European would certainly not be deemed the son or father, as the case may be, of the person adopting or adopted by such concubine; but Mr Caldwell's was an exceptional case - not in the matter of his living with Awoon, but from his position with respect to the Chinese people - his intimate knowledge of their language and customs - he would be apt to be considered by the Chinese community to be more amenable to their customs, than any other European in this Colony.\n\nI understood Mr Caldwell to be under the impression, when he made the statement in Court on oath, that the report alluded to the present Mrs Caldwell. I don't at this present time recollect the exact words used by Mr Caldwell, further than that they were very explicit, and led me to believe that he denied any connection through any females of his family with Ma-chow Wong at any time. I personally heard him in Court say this.\n\nBeyond this denial of his own, I have never heard anything to cause me to doubt the story, which I at first believed. At the date of such denial, it was not the general impression that Ma-chow Wong had adopted him or his present wife. I had mistaken my informant on that point. In connection with this adoption, Mr Davies, I think, had heard from me of such adoption. He had been under the impression previously, that Ayow was the person meant, but I informed him as well as the Acting Colonial Secretary, that it was Awoon who was meant.\n\nThe spy Ashing has been employed through me, and Cock-eye has been assisting him in hopes of a reward for the apprehension of the robbers who robbed Mr Hazeland. They were in no shape employed through me at the recommendation of Mr Caldwell. I may also state that their employment in the first place had no connection with the capture of robbers, or persons of that description. They were employed by me at the instance of His Excellency the Governor for the public safety, more particularly in regard to the recent incendiarism, and for information of what transpired on the mainland of China, for the protection of the Colony.\n\nCross-examined. Regarding the Stanley murder case, from the information which I have received in the Gaol, I feel perfectly convinced that a murder has been committed. Mr Caldwell received the information upon which he acted from Ma-chow Wong in my presence, and in the presence of the Acting Colonial Secretary. I can give no reason for their coming down to make the inquiry, beyond their anxiety to carry out the ends of justice. I had, in the first place, communicated Ma-chow Wong's information to the Acting Colonial Secretary.\n\nI recollect, very probably since this enquiry began, restating this to the Attorney General, but I cannot recollect the date. I do not recollect how it was put to me by the Attorney General.\n\n[Handed in (R) a copy of the Notification appointing Mr Grand-Pre in Mr Caldwell's stead.]\n\nAdjourned till 12 o'clock to-morrow.",

Mrs Howes was the wife of the Captain who was murdered during the attack on the \"Lubeck\". And it was absolutely necessary for the conviction of the prisoners that Mrs Howes should be kept in Hong Kong during the trial, and that she should be brought from Canton to give evidence in a case against others charged with the same crime. It was mainly owing to the evidence of Mrs Howes that some of the most notorious pirates, who had infested the neighboring waters, were convicted, and I judge that it was but right that the expenses Mrs Howes had been put to should be defrayed by this Government.\n\nIn August 1866 thirty-...\n\nCorrected and formatted according to the given rules:\n\n1.

If Mr Caldwell was. fin future the conductor of the emigration system, he was sure that the abuses\" which had been before the Jury would not last- they would certainly be done away with.

I expected them to be treated in the same way as I had seen others treated ten years ago, when I used to go to the place; and certainly never expected for a moment to find the state of things described by Mr Lister.

He had visited the place two days previously and had found eight or ten patients, who were in an utter state of filth and neglect, so much so that the attendant could not tell whether some patients were alive or dead until he shook them. None of the cells had windows; the door being the only means of light and ventilation there.\n\n7\n\nWAD-19\n\nThe cells had no appearance whatever of food, medicine, or bedding, nor were there any arrangements in force for cleaning the cells. One cell was four feet three inches high, and in this, a man was barricaded who had become troublesome through delirium. In another cell were three patients incapable of speech, all lying on a bare board. In another cell, in perfect darkness, on an earthen floor, lay two others, one dead and offensive, the other still living; he was covered with dust and dirt from rolling on the floor. The attendant told him that most of the patients were sent from the emigration houses.\n\nMr. Lister further stated that after leaving the Cloge, he returned in half an hour, when he found that a change had been effected - one corpse had been put into a coffin, the floors had been swept, the pools of urine cleaned, ashes put down, and food brought in, all by order and at the expense of Caldwell. Mr. Lister concluded his evidence by stating that the Cloge was not a hospital, but a place where people hopelessly sick were sent to die. The present system had not been going on long but had only existed since the opening of the emigration depots, for although people were previously sent to the Cloge to die, still the last offices of humanity were attended to by their friends.\n\nThe attendant at the Cloge being called, deposed that the deceased came from the Kwong Tai emigration depot, of which H. Caldwell was the proprietor - that he had received eleven patients from Mr. Caldwell's depot - stated that on one of these dying, he reported the circumstance and was paid two dollars for burial expenses - and that no patient was ever sent to the Cloge of whom there were any hopes of recovery. One of the patients who had been released testified that there was neither blanket nor attendance, and that nothing in the shape of food or water could be had, except by yelling and loud cries.\n\nThe Manager of the Kwong Tai depot testified that he was employed by H. Caldwell, whose orders were to send all bad cases to the Cloge, in pursuance of which orders he had sent seven patients there. The coffin contractor testified that he had supplied the Cloge sometimes with two coffins per diem, sometimes with three, but with never more than four.\n\nCaldwell, being sworn, gave a history of the Cloge from its foundation - he had known the attendant for sixteen or eighteen years and vouched for his entire respectability. In the first place, he distinctly admitted that the Cloge was never meant for a hospital, but only for people to die in; he subsequently, however, averred that it was a mistake to suppose that hopeless cases only were sent there.\n\nThe Coroner, in summing up, remarked that no blame could be attached to anybody in particular, and that no person could be said to be responsible in any measure for the then-existing state of things. He agreed that emigration, though salutary and beneficial, ...\n\nPage 236",

        "content_text": "219 \n\n9. It will be recollected that, two years ago, the best scholar at the Central School, who had also been a monitor, was appointed master of this school. His duties were to teach English in the forenoon, and Chinese in the afternoon. After the first six months, the numbers declined rapidly. At the end of the year they gradually increased again; but, by August last, the attendance had become almost nominal, and the master resigned in despair. Another monitor was appointed in his place, and the numbers slowly increased; but twelve months more must decide whether the experiment is to be continued or not. It may be that the locality was a bad one for the experiment, but it was the only one which was available at the time; and the result has been so unsatisfactory that, if it is necessary to revert to an ordinary Chinese teacher, it will be some time before a similar experiment is attempted elsewhere. This case shows pretty clearly that native masters trained after our ideas of training are not yet wanted in China. Such a fact may be much to be regretted, but such is the fact nevertheless.\n\n10. The Village Schools which are partly supported by Government have not recently given rise to much difficulty. A few of the masters are still discontented with the way in which the villagers carry out their part of the agreement, but the majority are content to let things remain as they are. The attendance increases very slowly, but it does increase; and that is perhaps as much as can be expected of these schools. Some of them, as the one at Ap-li Chau, maintain a high place in the order of efficiency. Others, as the one at Pok-fú Lam, are in anything but a satisfactory condition.\n\n11. The Central School more than maintained its place in point of numbers, in spite of the many difficulties which had to be encountered during the year from the resignation of two and the serious illness of one of the masters. These difficulties have been satisfactorily overcome. The staff of teachers is complete, and the result of the examinations showed that it is also efficient.\n\n21. The Basel Mission School, which was added to the list last year, has been established for the education of girls whose parents belong to the Mission churches in Hongkong and on the mainland. Girls are boarded at the Mission House, and are thus subject to constant supervision. In addition to instruction in Christianity, they receive through the medium of the Chinese language an ordinary European education during four hours every day, as required by the scheme. After school hours, they are trained in all the branches of ungue is tungest, con guy, including spinning, sewing, knitting, weaving for the discharge of their duties as wives and mothers in the humble homes from which they come, and to which they return on leaving school. Few institutions carry out their aim more effectually and less ostentatiously than the Basel Mission Girls' School.\n\n22. There were 62 scholars in the school last year, and the average daily attendance for that period was 50. On the examination day 42 were presented, in Standards ranging from I to V inclusive. Five out of the number only five failed. The thorough manner in which the work is done may be inferred from the following figures. In reading there were no failures, and in writing (from dictation) only one. In arithmetic there were thirteen failures. Twenty were examined in geography and one failed. History, in Standard V, was not taken, and had to be considered a failure, the Manager not having sufficient confidence in the way in which it had been taught.\n\n23. The results attained in this school are due to the strong teaching power which is employed. In addition to the Chinese Master and his assistant, the Revd. Mr. LOERCHER and Mrs. LOERCHER have their daily duties as teachers during all school hours. It is to them that the school owes its place in the class to which it belongs, and without their superintendence, the present high standard of education and discipline could never have been reached.\n\n12. The hopes entertained last year of the early commencement of a new building were entirely frustrated by the typhoon of September. No complaint can, therefore, be made of the delay. As the school has been but a short time in existence, the Third was the highest Standard tested. As a tacit submission to unforeseen circumstances might imply that the necessity had passed away, consideration of the condition of the present premises will not be out of place.\n\n13. The existing accommodation is limited to bare sitting room for an average of 100 boys, which is as many as can be seated in it. There is thus no means of efficiently working the school. Three or more masters have to teach simultaneously in the same class, whereas, with adequate accommodation, classes could be drafted off into side rooms, which would enable the masters to teach in greater quietness, and therefore with greater efficiency. This makes the result of the year's work all the more creditable.\n\n14. The present building has no unity of design. At first, four rooms of what was originally a dwelling house were converted into two class-rooms by the removal of the folding doors. Next, a class-room was built entirely separate from the main building, and without reference to future necessities. Then, another class-room was built on exactly the same plan. Finally, a third class-room was built between the former ones, but at their expense, as regards ventilation. There remains no space for the building of the additional rooms which are required; and, possibly, it is very fortunate that such is the case.\n\n15. In spite of much that has been done, three of the class-rooms are almost unbearable in summer from want of proper ventilation. They are so shut in by adjoining buildings that ventilating, such as they require, is an impossibility.\n\n16. To put an additional story on the three lower class-rooms is equally impossible, so insecure are the foundations. The north and west walls have sensibly subsided, and the partition wall between two of the rooms is visibly off the plumb. At the same time, it ought to be clearly stated that there is no immediate danger of an accident; but the effects of the earthquake and typhoon of last year, especially the former, quite shook all confidence in the permanent stability of the building. Any strain could not be frequently repeated.\n\n17. Outside the class-room doors and inside the school gates, there is barely standing room for the boys. Two of the upper class-rooms have to be left open during the morning and mid-day intervals for shelter from sun and rain. This prevents these two rooms from ever having the tidy appearance which class-rooms ought to have.\n\n18. Without further detail, it may thus be taken as proved that the present building is inadequate as regards size, insecure as regards its foundations, and unhealthy as regards ventilation. That being so, further discussion of the question is unnecessary.\n\n24. The Victoria Boys' School, having had an average daily attendance of 36, was admitted last year to participation in the grant. Twenty-four were eligible for examination, and, of these, twenty reached. In reading, there was but one failure; in writing, (from dictation), seven; and, in arithmetic, twelve. The nine presented in Standard III all passed in grammar.\n\n25. The examination showed that there had been much painstaking bestowed on the teaching. There are few English boys in the school, and English is therefore a foreign language to most of the scholars. The greatest difficulty the school has to contend with is irregularity of attendance. If the parents of the boys would insist on more regular attendance, the character of the school would rise in proportion to the benefit their children derive from it. It is unfair that a school should be impeded by an obstacle so easily removable. This point deserves the Manager's most careful attention.\n\n26. The same remark applies to St. Saviour's Day School, where out of 115 present during the year, and with an average daily attendance of 68, only 44 qualified themselves by attendance for examination. The Manager reports that many of the children are very poor, and no doubt that is a great obstacle to regularity; but, seeing that the education is free, and that only 200 attendances a year are required, the difficulties in the way would be fewer if parents were more careful. Irregularity, however, is not confined to the children of the very poor, and, in such a case, it is inexcusable. Parents should think of the energy which the teachers are expending in vain, from the want of a little more firmness in the treatment of their children. It is very discouraging to the teachers of such a rare school as this is to have the standard of their qualifications judged by so small a percentage of their labour.\n\n27. The 44 who were examined were ranked from Standard V downwards, the great proportion being in the three lower standards. Eight scholars failed. In reading, grammar, and geography, there were no failures; in writing (from dictation) there were 14, and in arithmetic 17. In this school, English is a foreign language to the great majority of the boys. The difficulties are therefore great enough without their being added to by irregular attendance.\n\n28. The London Mission Schools at Wán-tsui and T'ái-p'ing Shán had a large increase in numbers, more being enrolled in 1873 than in 1874. These two schools are admirably conducted, the only question about them being whether the masters are not overtaxing their strength by teaching so many. The Manager has the matter under consideration, and probably the number will be limited in future to about 60 each, to the benefit both of schools and of scholars.\n\n29. Although more scholars were presented for examination at T'ái-p'ing Shán than at Wán-tsai, the latter is a far superior school to the former, and consequently gained a larger share of the grant. This is not owing to any inferiority in the T'ái-p'ing Shán master, who is perhaps more experienced than the one at Wán-tsai; but, mentally and physically, the scholars at the latter place are superior to those at T'ái-p'ing Shán. There is an air of vigour and comfort among the boys of Wán-tsai, while effects of pinching poverty and neglect are but too visible among those of T'ái-p'ing Shán.\n\n19. The Morrison Scholarship, which was referred to last year as being involved in much difficulty, may now be considered as settled. Details have yet to be arranged, but no question of principle remains, and the school has already enjoyed the benefit of it. When the scheme for its administration is complete, a detailed account of it will be given.\n\n20. The Grant-in-aid schools increased from six to nine, and the number of scholars thereby rose from 442 to 632. One new school was added, and the three Baxter schools, previously classed as one, were in a position to be taken separately. The scheme continues to give satisfaction, and no practical difficulties have arisen in the working of it. The Managers who had grants during the year of its operation speak favourably of the good which has accrued from it to their schools.\n\n30. From these two schools 122 were sent up for examination. Of these, 28 failed. The fact that at neither school was any scholar examined in Standard I shows how well the schools are taught. At Wán-tsai two scholars were examined in Standard VI and both passed. The highest Standard at T'ái-p'ing Shán was the Fifth. Three were examined in it, but two of them failed. The failures in various subjects were:--in reading, 11; in writing, (from dictation), 20; in repetition, 8; in explanation, 11; in composition, 9; and in geography, 7.",

        "content_text": "# EXPLOSION ON THE “YESSO.' \n## GREAT LOSS OF LIFE.\n\nA gloom was thrown over the town yesterday morning by the occurrence of a terrible accident on the steamer Yesso, Captain S. Ashton, from the Coast Ports. The vessel was being moored alongside Messrs. Douglas Lapraik & Co.'s wharf, between half-past seven and eight o'clock, when a terrible explosion took place, and the forward part of the ship was enshrouded in a dense cloud of steam. The pressure of steam at the time was 14lbs. One of the back plates of the starboard boiler had given way and was blown out. The steam rushed into the Chinese cabin and forecastle, and worked terrible havoc there. Twelve men were killed on the spot, and sixty-four were taken to the Hospital, the injuries of all of them being most serious, and deaths occurred hourly during the day. Many more are expected to die. Several others, who were also much scalded, were taken to the Tung Wah hospital, and others less severely injured went to their homes. One man was taken by his friends into a sampan, where he died in the afternoon. Only one European was hurt, the second engineer, Mr. W. Haggat, who, however, is not very seriously injured. It was a ghastly sight to see the dead and wounded lying about, and crowds soon collected round the steamer and at the doors of the Civil Hospital and the dead house. The wretched victims of the explosion were fearfully disfigured. On the deck of the steamer, the skin from their hands, feet, and legs was to be seen scattered about. Persons who have witnessed many appalling catastrophes were heard to say that they had never witnessed so sickening and distressing a scene before. All the corridors in the Hospital were filled with the wounded, whose piteous cries and groans resounded on all sides, and made up a most distressing scene. As the accommodation in the hospital was insufficient, the European mess-room in the gaol was fitted up as a temporary hospital, and the sufferers were removed there. As soon as the Admiral on board of the accident he signalled for all the men-of-war in port to render medical assistance, which they promptly did. Assistance in removing the bodies and extricating the wounded was afforded by the officers of the ships, the police, and a number of gentlemen who promptly hastened to the scene, and oil was obtained from Messrs. Lane, Crawford's store and freely used on the sufferers. The general cry amongst the scalded was for water. Most of the unfortunate people were in a state of complete helplessness, and several scarcely lived to reach the hospital. The number of Chinese brought down by the Yesso was a hundred and seventy-two. Two old women had the presence of mind to wrap themselves up in their bed clothes, and thereby escaped injury, while many round about them were badly scalded. One Chinese family who were in a cabin between decks had the forethought to shut the door, which kept the steam out, and they escaped unhurt. Numbers of those who were scalded were coolies who, on the steamer arriving at the wharf, rushed on board to obtain a job to carry the luggage for the passengers. The bulkhead on the end of the boiler is partly blown down, and the tea, which was stowed in the forehold, was scattered in all directions in the hold. The steam burst open the hatchway to the between-decks and the skylight on the upper deck. The boiler was built in Hongkong about three years and a half ago. The European passengers brought down by the Yesso were Dr. and Mrs. Rogers, Mr. Doagal, and one European deck passenger.\n\nOne of the fire engines was got out, under the superintendence of Inspector Orley, also the engine from the Hongkong Fire Insurance. The latter one is playing into the fore hatch where there was great heat. The police were actively at work to prevent robbery of the passengers' luggage during the confusion consequent on the disaster, and only one known case occurred. Every possible help was rendered by the naval and civil medical men, and one of the naval surgeons remained to assist the Colonial Surgeon all last night. His Excellency the Governor visited the gaol, the Civil Hospital, the Tung-wah, and the steamer Yesso. He gave orders for relays of attendants at the Gaol and Hospital, and for the relations and friends of the victims to be admitted in detachments of a dozen at a time to see them in order that there should be no crowding. He also, when at the Tung-wah Hospital, gave directions for the place to be properly ventilated, and otherwise looked after the comfort and well-being of the poor creatures.\n\n## THE INQUEST.\n\nThe inquest was opened at the Civil Hospital at four o'clock in the afternoon, by Mr. Russell, Coroner, Messrs. J. A. Moseley, V. L. Meyenberg, and R. H. Radecker being sworn as the jury.\n\nThe Coroner said-I presume you are all aware, gentlemen, of the circumstances under which we meet here to-day. A most unfortunate and sudden catastrophe occurred by the bursting of one of the boilers of the steamship Yesso when she arrived here this morning. Shortly after she came in and while lying alongside the wharf, a plate of the boiler gave way and was thrown off with great violence. The steam went into the hold, burst open the hatches, and burnt to death a great number of people. The return made by the police of the number of people brought up is eighty-nine, and there are now lying in the dead-house here thirty. First the wounded were brought here, but there being no accommodation, they were taken to the European mess-room in the gaol, as many as still survive are now lying. There were sixty there. Eleven have died since, and there are now remaining there, looked after by a number of surgeons, forty-nine. There are two men upstairs living, eight were taken to the Tung-wah Hospital, one of whom has died, and up to the present there are thirty-seven deaths. The whole number of persons accounted for is eighty-nine. At present I have only been able to get four bodies identified, one Malay and three Chinese.\n\nWe will see bodies here, then go to look at the steamship, then to the Tung-wah Hospital, and then we will adjourn until to-morrow. It is a very deplorable thing. Of course we don't know how it occurred, but in the course of the inquiry we will probably find out all about it, and it is perfectly useless to speculate about it now.\n\nThe jury then commenced their painful task of viewing the bodies. They first went to the dead-house in Hollywood-road, where the dead bodies ranged on the floor and on benches, presented a fearful spectacle, the skin hanging from parts of the bodies or being completely stripped off. A still more painful sight was that in the improvised hospital in the gaol, where forty-nine sufferers lay moaning on their beds. All that could be done to make them comfortable had been done, they had had the best medical attendance and their pain had been alleviated to the full extent of surgical skill, but it was heart-rending to hear their groans and observe their fearful sufferings. Most of them appeared unable to move at all, and it is feared that only very few of the poor fellows will survive. It was not only their external wounds they suffered from, but they had inhaled the steam and thus scalded their lungs. Having viewed a dead body here which had not yet been removed to the dead-house, the jury went to the Yesso, where Captain Ashton pointed out how the accident had occurred. The plate was blown out and thrown forward against a beam on the foreside of the bulkhead, which it had broken in the middle. The steam had forced up the hatchway to the between-deck, where about half the Chinese passengers were, and also the skylight on to the main deck. This skylight was thrown a considerable distance in the air. The main deck had been cleared, but the between-deck and hold remained in the same state as they were after the removal of the bodies. There were still lying about the skins of hands and feet, which had come off like gloves. Leaving the ship, the coroner and jury went to the Tung Wah Hospital, where they visited the injured who had been taken there and viewed three dead bodies. From the Tung Wah they proceeded to the Civil Hospital, where they went to see the two men under treatment there, one of whom is a Fat-shan mandarin. The inquiry was then adjourned until ten o'clock this morning.\n\nAt a late hour last night the deaths numbered sixty-two.\n\nPage 420\nPage 421",

        "content_text": "It will be seen that Mr Hemmpey gives no ground for his statement, beyond that having tasted Mr Smith's displeasure. Now he knows better than to displease him.\n\nExpensive as Mr Hemmpey is apt to take very strong likes & dislikes, and with regard to the latter will stick at nothing to effect the ruin of the unhappy official. I may cite as an instance the case of Labuan now under the United States.\n\nThe Malay was his own Favourite principal Resident in that State. This gentleman (whom he had appointed in defiance of law) he suspended & made the subject of a most ungenerous attack, merely because he dissented from him as to the propriety of his removal. Low was no favourite, having never shown a tendency to acquiesce in anything Mr Hemmpey said, merely because he said it, but all his statements must be received with some allowance.\n\nAll Smith, on the other hand, is one of our best officials. After serving this colony as Magistrate at Hongkong & interregnum 1862, he was appointed Registrar General in 1865. He has acted as a student, and many times in the Secretariat with satisfaction until his superiors, until the last occasion when, as he has not been satisfied with his conduct.\n\nHe is one of the few Colonial Officers (there are not many out of Hongkong) who have mastered the Chinese language, like Mr De Rouncey and Mr Homes. He has always been looked upon as the probable successor of Austin. It makes it possible to find promotion for him in some other colony, for it is fair to think that Hongkong should be deprived of his services where they would, from his knowledge of the language & people, be most useful, & which colony laid claim to his services.\n\nIt is scarcely to be recommended that a man's office should be an intimation of a good man's office, though I am disposed to think that if Mr Hemmpey had plainly seen that Mr Smith's claims could not be ignored, he would have taken a kinder view of the situation & made friends with him.\n\n& I am strengthened in this view by the fact that Mrs Hemmpey a few months ago complained of D. Smith & reported of him officially.",

The Second Empire buried ex-King Jerome with all the pomp and circumstance of soldiery, and interred in 1865, the duc de Morny with all administrative honors. In both ceremonies, soul was wanting: the people, the country, took no part. Gambetta's obsequies were an explosion of patriotism: the resurrection of 1870-71, with all its sufferings, its lessons, and its hopes.\n\nTHE CATHOLIC REGISTER.\n\nIt is proposed that the bottom of the vault be strewn with similar soil, coffin laid on a layer of soil several feet deep, as practiced in some states of America. Lafayette's remains were treated similarly.\n\nA kind of retrospective controversy is taking place respecting the cause of Gambetta's death. It belongs to legend, so let it rest there. Opinion considers the deceased, like poor Garfield, was over-doctored. Had the wound been dressed as ordinarily, the health maintained by salines, and the patient fairly dosed with proper salts, and kept on his feet, instead of being compelled to lie in bed, a favorite cure in France, he would be alive to-day. Perhaps his work was done: during his 4 years, he must have lived several lives. In his coffin, with the tricolor, for a martial cloak around him, he truly \"look'd like a warrior taking his rest.\"\n\nThe picture of the country mutilated, followed the hearse, in the symbols of Metz and Strasbourg: the hope of the country's future, was cheered in the deputations of the colleges and the schools. There was a striking unanimity in thus glorifying two epochs. It was a patriotic consolation, and exhibited France to be one and indivisible, that manifestation around the representative of its greatest symbol, and which so scrutinized and solemnized, the resistance of 1870-71.\n\nLet there be no mistake about the meaning and the moral of the funeral. The three millions of people, who came from every part of France, from every corner of Paris, to line the route of the cortège, did not arrive to honor the doctrines of Gambetta: to mark a new triumph for the republic, or the official recognition of free thought as one of the \"religions\"—a paradox, of the state: no, it was the apotheosis of patriotism superior to politics and religion, incarnated in the man of Prague, and not the chief of a party or the leader of a creed.\n\nRespecting the procession, it was a military fairy spectacle. In the words of Bossuet, the honors wanted in nothing, save him, to whom they were rendered. From the Palais Bourbon to the cemetery of Père Lachaise, is between three and four miles, and the procession starting at ten o'clock, arrived at half-past one; the rear of the cortège was at the Palais Bourbon when its head was at the cemetery. It was well organized. Along the route, the windows were filled, not with mourners, but curious onlookers; the crowd in the street was flat, reserved rather: it displayed neither sorrow, joy, revenge, nor hope. But it may not have experienced all these. Heads uncovered, when the bier arrived, as is the courtesy ever rendered to death. The working population, say half a million, were bare-headed, that being their every day toilette. There was no smoking in the crowds: no jesting. An intense feeling of curiosity dominated, mingled with the satisfaction at the grandeur of the splendid pageant. The flags in mourning, attested very extensive sympathy.\n\nThe deputations and delegations, with their 5,000 crowns represented France; not its industrial institutions. Louis Blanc had workmen for numbers; Ledru Rollin, electors; Thiers, republicans, but Gambetta had all these, for he meant France. He thought his countrymen to be French, not cosmopolitans, and the people retained for Gambetta a secret complaisance and a profound respect. The thousands, including political adversaries—Paul de Cassagnac and the duc de Broglie, who visited his remains at the Palais Bourbon, attest this. The decoration of the façade of the Chamber of Deputies—a black crape scarf drawn across, with the sashes strewn on the majestic steps, the ushers ranged in front of the pillars, and the illuminated lamps veiled, was most effective. The catafalque was neither new, nor rich: it was uncommon. That which had served to inter the Bonapartist de Morny, was considered out of place for the Grand Patriot, though it had conveyed the remains of Thiers.\n\nEfforts are being made to retain the remains permanently in Paris and not at Nice, that might become Italian again, alongside his mother and his favorite aunt. He has bequeathed his brain to the Anthropological museum, to science, as Voltaire did his heart to the Parisians. Upwards of 6,000 applications have already been received, to be present at the technical lecture on the deceased's brain.\n\nA few popular errors to be corrected. Gambetta is not of Jewish extraction; he descends from an old, humble, and pious Catholic family, of Celle, near Savona. Also: he was first elected a deputy in 1869, and returned for Marseilles, his official opponent being Suez de Lesseps, a distant relative of the Empress Eugénie, but a republican since the sinking of the Empire. There also opposed him at the same time, as an Orleanist. At the funeral of the Liberator, the crowd cried, Vive la République! At the obsequies of the Patriot, the nation exclaimed, Vive la France! Gambetta's followers will be absorbed into the other groups; his doctrines will be presented in another form. Time alone can develop the leadership of the republicans and there will be no lack of Richmonds in the field. But that leader will not be able to stir men, to rouse up and lead the people. And should a national crisis ever come, millions will sigh for the touch of a vanished hand, and the sound of a voice that is still.\n\nGambetta's death settles no pending questions; nor is it to be feared, the disputes and the dissensions of republicans. The royalists consider they can make hay while the sun shines. They have no king: true, one has been coming since half a century, and is likely to remain so. The Figaro, a very monarchal journal, cheers its followers, and offers a fat prize to whoever will forward for publication, a plan possessing a grain of common sense, for the restoration of any monarchy.\n\nThe death of General Chanzy is a very great loss to the army: he and Faidherbe were the only two generals whom the Germans counted with; originally he was intended for the navy, and during the invasion, when admirals and post captains, civilians, superseded professional generals, Chanzy had under his orders, a vice-admiral whom he once served in the capacity of midshipman. Chanzy was a \"possible\" president of the Republic; he would never have had, however, the republican vote, as he is an Orleanist, and the Orleanists intend to run the duc d'Aumale as successor to M. Grévy.\n\nNOVICE TO CORRESPONDENTS.\n\nCommunications on Editorial matters to be addressed to the Editor, and those on business to the Manager.

JOSEPH'S COLLEGE.\n\nThe distribution of prizes to the boys of St. Joseph's College took place on Saturday, the 17th instant, at the College in the presence of a very large assemblage. His Excellency the Administrator, who had kindly consented to distribute the prizes, arrived exactly at 3 o'clock, accompanied by Mrs. Marsh and his private Secretary, Mr. Travers. Amongst those present were His Lordship Bishop Raimondi, Very Rev. Fathers Burghignoli and Lémonier, Mr. Loureiro (Portuguese Consul), Mr. Dejardin (French Consul), Mr. Romano (Brazilian Consul), Mr. Musso (Italian Consul), Mr. Coxon (Belgian Consul), Messrs. Francis, Remedios, Guedes, Silva, and others.\n\nHis Lordship the Bishop, in opening the proceedings, said:\n\nMay it please Your Excellency, Ladies and gentlemen—it was not so long ago, a few weeks when we met in this same building on the occasion of its inauguration; and now I have again to thank you for your kindness in honoring us with your presence.\n\nWe are here to-day to witness a ceremony which, though not so novel as the opening of a College, is yet one which is always greeted with pleasure, when it comes on, the distribution of prizes to the fortunate youngsters, who have gained literary victories.\n\nThe giving of school prizes has always a pleasant effect upon a youngster's mind. All human doings are liable to be; in fact, though it might be carried to excess, we are glad to say that the giving of prizes has become a very popular thing in the Colony; and while in former times it was the custom to give the prizes on the same day as the examinations were held, now a day is fixed for it.\n\nWe all know that experience has taught us that it is very difficult for little boys to learn two languages at once. I was therefore very glad to find that a private school has been opened by a Portuguese gentleman, in which not less than 80 boys are learning Portuguese. That school might be a preparatory school to St. Joseph's College, to the greatest advantage of education, it being no doubt easier to teach foreign languages to boys, who know their own.\n\nThe boys of St. Joseph's College are separated into two divisions—the Anglo-Portuguese school and the Anglo-Chinese school—both of which are subdivided into six classes according to the six standards, St. Joseph, being under the grant-in-aid scheme. Examinations have been held, as prescribed by the Code; and here I will tell you frankly that when the time for the examination was drawing near, I was very much afraid that they would have been quite a failure. My reason for this fear was that when they were building the College, the boys' classes were held in matsheds, to the inconvenience of both pupils and teachers. I am, however, very happy to state that the examination passed off exceedingly well this year. Out of the total number of the two divisions in St. Joseph's College, we sent 158 to be examined and of these 145 passed, having gained the required marks in every subject, as it is required by the regulations (applause). That was 92 per cent, and if 30 per cent in England is considered a good result, 92 per cent in Hongkong, you will agree with me, may be considered as a great success (renewed applause).\n\nI have always held that education must always be suited to the wants of the masses and not of the few, and I believe one of the greatest wants in Hongkong is for us to fit our boys to various situations both Government offices and in mercantile employment. Even in this direction St. Joseph's College has done its work well, for out of forty boys who have left the school during the year, not less than twenty have obtained good situations in such offices—two in Government offices, three with Solicitors, four with chemists, and eleven in mercantile firms.\n\nTouching that point as to the future, I must frankly state, that when we consider the number of boys increasing as it is every day, I am very much afraid that in future situations would be very difficult to get for all. Some of those present might possibly recollect that a few years ago I suggested that a way should be opened for our boys to learn engineering, and I am now very glad to tell you that the other day I was assured that three of our boys are now third engineers on board steamers, and several others are preparing.\n\nAnother evil in Hongkong is that boys are too eager to get to situations and they leave the school too soon. I dare say that six years' time is too short to enable the boys to get a complete education, and we had boys, who at the age of thirteen had passed the sixth standard, and were unable to settle down to work.\n\nIt is said, that the parliament will in a few days, when it settles down to work, compel the cabinet to clearly state its views on several touching questions. Egypt will be one of these, but as the Chamber voted for the non-intervention of France, to aid England in the defence of the Khedive, and his administration, it can present no claim to uphold rights it considered not worth the expenditure of a single sou or a single franc to defend. Indeed, I think more attention will be given to home, than to foreign questions. Gambetta threw himself into the latter, to draw off attention from the former. And Clemenceau, the ablest of the Elishas, insists on internal reforms being no longer postponed. The Judicial Bench will be the first dealt with, and then the reorganization of the army, a matter in which the Army itself insists on the completion of the solutions.\n\nThe Opera masked balls have commenced; they are characterized by the absence of the nobility, at least it is not the same, as when Marie Thérèse, the duchesse d'Artois, later the princess Charles X, or when the Regent put in an appearance, receiving kicks behind from Dubois, the better to stamp the Regent's disguise, till the latter protested, \"Dubois, you disguise me too much.\" There was a crowd of strangers as ever, to witness the faded fun and the grand stair case, which were not then in office. Costumiers, in masquerade-lords, or form of undertaker's men on horseback, were a novelty. The Freemasons wore tricolor sashes, and attended with their fast brother-in-laws; bouquets of immortelles: these they too from their button holes, and threw on the coffin, as they bid their Sgrone adieu to their brother of the Mystic tie. The students wore an ivy leaf; and the representatives of Alsace and Lorraine, carried branches, cut in their native villages that they had just left. The statue of Strasbourg on the Place de la Concorde, which has ever remained draped in mourning since the cession of Alsace, had the crape unexpectedly raised on the head of the symbolical figure as the coffin passed by, and a sudden gleam of sunshine lit up the stony features, as if with a smile. Son of the Sunny south, the Sun followed him on a day of Spring, Gambetta to his tomb. A silk scarf, with an embroidered patriotic motto, and lined with earth from Alsace, was placed on the coffin.\n\nRespecting the missing link, Arnoux, Paris had that seven years ago in the Hameau-Uhlen, who was face included, covered with hair like a savage. Darwin's progeny, was as smooth as Lanch.\n\nThe Figaro states, a soup common with the poor of Ireland, consists of skate, lobster, potatoes, the yolks of eggs, and toast. The lamp-lighters are of two classes: one lights, the other extinguishes, the gas; but each demands a separate New Year's tip.\n\nI can assure you that the pupils of Joseph's College are worthy of your warmest sympathy. Their attendance has been pretty good, and that the number of those who are educated has much increased, the building itself amply testifies. We have been compelled to build this new large school, rightly said in one of your last public speeches, to meet the wants of education, as we were suffering from want of space.\n\nPerhaps you are not aware, that this is the fourth time we have had to get a good situation on account of their youth. Moreover, I have heard it said that the system of standards is not entirely satisfactory for the development of young minds. I am of opinion that at a certain age, children are in need of a strict system, like that of the standards, but with regard to boys who have reached the age of thirteen or fourteen years, I think something different is required.\n\nThe Christian Brothers have wisely done so; they have opened a seventh class for boys who have passed the sixth standard, where they learn the elements of different branches of high education—algebra, geometry, botany, mechanics, English literature, foreign languages, and literature. This will perfect the boys in English composition. Some of you perhaps recollect that some three years ago, remarks were passed as to the Portuguese boys of St. Joseph's College being weak in composition. This did not result from want of disposition on the part of the boys, and the Christian Brothers took up the matter with the result that there has been a wonderful improvement.\n\nI hope that a few years more of study will improve them more and more, and qualify them to take better situations than that of mere copying clerks (Applause).\n\nFourteen who have passed the sixth Standard have been enrolled in the Seventh class, but the success of this good work on the part of the Christian Brothers, towards the starting of this important class is entirely due to the magical effect of a special prize which has been given by our liberal and generous friend Mr. Botelho, whose name will always be recollected with gratitude in this College.

        "content_text": "The Daily Press.\n\nHONGKONG, SEPTEMBER 13TH, 1883.\n\nTHE ANTI-FOREIGN RIOT AT CANTON.\n\nThe river steamer Hankow arrived from Canton yesterday afternoon, and by her we learn further particulars of the disastrous outbreak on Monday. About half-past four on that morning a Chinaman came up the Hankow's gangway and wanted to get on board. The Portuguese watchman told him it was too early and stepped forward, stretching out his arms to bar the way. The man gave a step backward, and accidentally fell overboard. No violence whatever was used. Such was the account we received on board the steamer as that given by the watchman, but there were no witnesses of the occurrence. Some time afterwards the body was brought on board the steamer by the man's friends, and the British Consul was informed of the affair. The Consul passed the information on to the Viceroy, and it was seen that there was a possibility of trouble, but no steps to avoid it were taken by the authorities. There was no actual outbreak, however, until about a quarter past eight. At this time Capt. Ogston was talking to the man who appeared to be in charge of the body, endeavouring to induce him to remove it off the steamer quietly. Meanwhile the crowd had been increasing, and at a quarter past eight they commenced to throw stones and bricks at the vessel, and a few minutes afterwards Captain Ogston saw two men with torches. On seeing this he considered there was no time to be lost and he got his vessel away from the wharf as speedily as possible, slipping one of his hawsers to save time. Hardly had the steamer got off before the wharf was fired, kerosine having been brought from a neighbouring shop. As the Hankow steamed away the crowd continued to pelt her, and the upper deck of the steamer was covered with stones and brickbats, but no material damage was done. Mr. Christy, the chief engineer, had a narrow escape of being hit on the head, as a brick came flying past him as he was at work in the engine room. Most of the Chinese passengers the Hankow had on board at the time transferred themselves afterwards to the Honam and came down in that steamer on Tuesday. The Hankow yesterday brought down about 150 Chinese passengers; she had also on board two European ladies and two gentlemen.\n\nAs to the occurrences on Shameen on Monday, our report of yesterday seems to have covered almost the whole ground, as we were able to learn but few additional details of importance. It should be mentioned, however, that the Chinese authorities sent fire-engines on to the concession in the afternoon, to play on the burning buildings, but this assistance was too late to be of any avail, as the houses were already gutted.\n\nThe Canton Dispensary, Rev Mr. Masters's house and other houses occupied by foreigners on the Canal-road were threatened by the mob, but on the Chinese occupants of the adjoining houses representing to them that if they set fire to these the flames would extend to the Chinese shops, the rioters showed themselves so far amenable to reason as to acknowledge the force of the argument and leave these places alone. As may be imagined, however, the foreigners did not feel inclined to trust their forbearance implicitly, and Mr. and Mrs. Masters and their children, and Mr. and Mrs. Brant, of the Dispensary, found refuge in a Chinese house at the back of their own premises, whence they were subsequently taken to the Ningpo by a steam launch, a small party of foreigners and a number of Chinese soldiers giving them a safe escort through the mob from the house to the water. The Rev. Dr. Happer, who lives in the same neighbourhood, thought it safe to remain in his own house, and some other missionaries, we believe, also adopted the same course.\n\nOn Tuesday everything was quiet, and the settlement was guarded by the Chinese troops. The Swift arrived about 8.30 p.m., and the Consuls were notified. Two of the Consuls wished to have the marines landed, but the English Consul considered this unnecessary, and declined to make the request to the Commodore. Previous to the arrival of the Swift the residents had held a meeting and it was decided to patrol the settlement during the night. The first watch, under command of Mr. von Pustau, did duty from seven to nine o'clock. The second watch went on at nine and was to be relieved at eleven, but at half-past ten it was decided that there was no further necessity for the patrol being kept up by foreigners. It was said at one time that a raid was to be made about eight o'clock, but nothing of the sort occurred, and all the approaches were guarded by a sufficient force to repel any attack that might have been attempted. Most of the ladies remained on the Ningpo on Tuesday night, but several slept at the German Consulate, and a few, we believe, at their own homes. During the day official inquiries were made by the Chinese authorities as to the welfare of the foreigners, and an intimation was given that they need not give themselves any further trouble in connection with the preservation of order. In the evening the Viceroy sent word that he had ordered 500 additional troops to be stationed in the streets and roads near the settlement. Yesterday morning everything seemed to be quiet.\n\nMr. von Pustau came down by the Hankow yesterday and was the bearer of dispatches from the German Consul to the German Naval authorities. Mr. Pustau was not in a position to give any information as to the contents of the dispatches, but he said Dr. Mollendorff had expressed the opinion that the presence of a gunboat of another nationality would have a good moral effect. Mr. Pustau, to whom we are indebted for many of the details above given, further informs us that the statement that the Chinese merchants had decided to suspend business with foreigners for a fortnight was inaccurate. The merchants called on their foreign friends, expressed their concern at what had occurred, and evinced friendly feelings, but the silkmen appeared to be somewhat alarmed. Mr. Pustau agrees with our other informants as to the pusillanimous bearing of the Chinese soldiers, and says that when the foreigners charged the mob the soldiers simply opened out and allowed the roughs to pass through. It is said that thirteen of the Chinese soldiers were killed, it is supposed by the bullets which the foreigners fired over the heads of the mob.\n\nThe Portuguese watchman, who had been detained in custody on the Hankow, was taken off to the settlement on Tuesday evening by a boat from the Swift, and lodged in the Gaol of the British Consulate pending the arrival of the Portuguese gunboat. It is said the captain of the Swift refused to have him taken on board that vessel. The Hankow on her way down passed the Portuguese gunboat Tamega going up, and no doubt the man would be placed on board her on her arrival. The Espoir was not seen, but the Latin was passed about twelve o'clock. Kiungchow was passed about ten miles below Whampoa.\n\n485",

        "content_text": "PRIZE DAY AT THE HONGKONG PUBLIC SCHOOL.\n\nThe annual distribution of prizes to the pupils attending the Hongkong Public School took place at St. Paul's College on Saturday morning, the 12th instant. His Excellency the Governor presiding. Amongst those present were Lady Bowen and the Misses Bowen, Mrs. Marah, Bishop and Mrs. Bardon, Hon. P. B. Johnson, Hon. A. Lister, Revs. W. Jennings, Dr. Chalmers, J. B. Ost, H. Lee and R. Lechler, Capt. Vyvyan, A.D.C. to the Governor, Mr. R. Macniro, Private Secretary to the Governor, Messrs. T. Jackson, A. WOlver, A. P. MacEwen, J. B. Chti, G. H. S. Wright, G. R. Lanniert, etc., etc.\n\nBishop BURDON, in opening the proceedings, said—I feel very grateful to your Excellency for the interest you take in our work here and for your kindness in coming to distribute the prizes to-day, especially as you are suffering from the effects of your recent accident. We appreciate your kindness in coming all the more on that account. (Applause). Our school has now been in existence for four years, and I think we may consider it as fairly set agoing and established. We have had our difficulties, as every good institution must expect to have. I don't know whether we may say we have had more than our share, but it has brought out much good feeling and kindly help, and I think we need not fear now for the future.\n\nBefore asking you, Sir, to be kind enough to distribute the prizes this morning, I would like to say a few words about the school itself and the history connected with it. (The school, as we have it now, is, and I think is increasingly felt to be, a necessity in this place. We have a large number of our own children, English children, who are growing up amongst us. Those children cannot, as a rule, be sent home by their parents. Those of us who have sons at home know what it costs to provide suitable schools for them, and also homes, when the parents are living out here. This is only in the power of a comparatively few. There are many children whose parents could not afford to do any such thing.\n\nThen what is to be done? There are other schools in the colony, it is true. We have the Central School, and the school connected with the Roman Catholics, St. Joseph's College. I do not think either of these is a suitable place for the children of English and Protestant residents here, and it seems to me education connected with Christianity as we understand and profess it is imperative. I am not going to say very much about the necessity of a religious education, but I feel very strongly, and I think most here will feel very strongly with me too, that education, to be anything of a training of character, must be founded upon religion; and as we understand the Christian religion after our own fashion, so we should be careful to conduct education in accordance with it.\n\nWe cannot get this in any other place than such a school as this. The expenses of such a school must, of course, be very great. We have to get a master, not here, but to send for him to England, to bring him out, pay him what is not, after all, a very large salary, but still is large for us to raise here. During the past year, we have been obliged to provide a house for the master. There are many reasons that made it necessary. This house I freely gave up, as far as I possibly could, for the purposes of the school. Two rooms are now occupied in the carrying on of the school, and for a while Mr. and Mrs. Hambling were good enough to put up with two rooms which they occupied as their residence, but it was felt this was not suitable, so we have risked the hiring of a house for the master and mistress, where, as we trust, they may be able to receive boarders, and in that way do good to the school and bring boys from the neighbouring ports where there are no advantages of education.\n\nIn commencing the school, there were three sources of help to which we looked and from which we hoped we might be able to support the school easily. One was the subscriptions of friends, another the fees, and the third was the Government help. The fees could not be expected to cover the whole of the expense. For them to have done so, the rate would have had to be made simply prohibitive, and we should not have been able to get the school up at all, for it is very few who could afford to pay their share of the large sum of two or three thousand dollars a year for their children. If they could do that, they would say it would be much better to get a tutor for themselves.\n\nThen we were obliged to ask friends. Here was a great difficulty. Some have said, \"Why should I be asked to support a school for the children of residents as well-to-do as I, or if not quite so well-to-do, well off at all events, to provide education for themselves?\" This has been a difficulty with us. I think a little more thought would have shown that out here it would be simply impossible for the parents to provide their children with tutors on their own. If they are not to be provided with a school of this kind, they must take their chance at the Chinese and Portuguese schools, neither of which I think are suitable.\n\nThat has been the reason we have pressed our friends for subscriptions. I may say those who have their boys here who are wealthy enough have helped us by giving subscriptions in addition to the payment of the fees, and I should be sorry if such boys were kept out. Then the fees come. This is not a charity school. It is on the same footing as some of our schools in England, which are endowed but not sufficiently endowed to be carried on without means provided by the parents of the scholars.\n\nI want the school to be placed on such a footing as I think all clergymen should be placed on, with just enough to make them independent of their constituents, but not enough to give them too much freedom. Too much freedom does not do for anyone, but we want just enough to enable us to hold our own, and then we shall go on from year to year by our own exertions.\n\nThe third source from which we hoped for help was Government assistance. The school was placed under Government inspection, and we hoped to receive something from the Government grant, but when we came to receive the money, we found we had hardly a hundred dollars coming in from that source. I wrote a long letter to your Excellency's predecessor, pointing out what I considered to be the unfairness of such an arrangement.\n\nI showed I had several Chinese Schools under my superintendence and obtained from the Government grant three-quarters of the whole expense. The Central School is mainly attended by Chinese, and the Government spends very large sums of money indeed in supporting it. I may also say—and I am not jealous at all, but still it is a fact—the Portuguese school, St. Joseph's College, has been largely helped by the Government.\n\nI think the education of English children, however they may be in comparison, is as important for us as the education of Chinese and Portuguese children. Therefore, I considered we ought to have a fair hearing and something like fair play. The Government, however, refused to reconsider its grant-in-aid system or in any way to help us, and we have found that by continuing to place ourselves under Government inspection, we so hampered ourselves and our arrangements that $60 or $70 a year hardly seemed sufficient bait to keep us under Government inspection. We, therefore, withdrew, and we are now dependent upon subscriptions and fees.\n\nNo doubt the Government intended to pay us a compliment in refusing to help us. We are Protestants and English, and therefore we are in a perfectly good position to stand on our own foundation. (Applause). Then we will do so, but that must make me appeal constantly for the endowment fund, and I would like to see this school, before many more years of my life are over, endowed with £5,000 laid aside towards its annual support. If it were so, we should be in a sufficiently independent position not to fear any collapse, and yet we should have to work hard.\n\nMr. Bellion, as you know, began the endowment fund some two years ago by giving $2,000, and when I was at home in England, I worked hard and succeeded in raising some little money, and we have now about £1,000. There are still £4,000 wanted. I am sure in a community like this, that amount could be raised if the necessity were felt as I feel it, and I trust that by people who are going home keeping in mind that they could not leave a better memorial of their gratitude for having been kept in health and life, and perhaps in prosperity too, while in China, than by adding to our endowment fund, it may be done.\n\nThe subjects taught in the school are the ordinary branches of an English education at home—Holy Scripture, arithmetic, algebra, Euclid, reading, spelling, writing, English composition and grammar, English history, drawing, geography, geology, and physiology.",

        "content_text": "## Enclosure\n\n23rd April, 1883\n\nInspection on the 22nd instant. As will be seen by annexed report in the chief local journal, I found every thing in good order, under Mr. C. Wodehouse, whom in 1883 I appointed to be Superintendent.– General Cameron, who accompanied me to the Inspection, expressed himself very much pleased by the smart and soldierlike appearance of the Officers and men.\n\nI have the honour to be,\nMy Lord,\nYour Lordship's Most Obedient Humble Servant,\nS. M. Bowen\n\n## ANNUAL INSPECTION OF THE HONG KONG FIRE BRIGADES\n\nAgreeably to announcement an inspection of the Government and Volunteer Fire Brigades was held on Wednesday afternoon, the 22nd inst., by His Excellency the Governor, on the Praya side of the City Hall. There were also present Major-General Cameron with Mrs. and the Misses Cameron, Capt. Lewis, A.D.C., and Lieut. Somerville, A.D.C. to the General, Hon. P. Ryrie, Commodore Morant, R.N., Colonel Graves, the French Consul and Mrs. Déjardin, &c. Government Nos. 2, 3, and 4 steamers and Nos. 6 and 7 manuals were on the spot as also the Hongkong Fire Insurance Company's steamer. There were also two hoses attached to the plugs in front of Beaconsfield Arcade. Shortly after His Excellency's arrival the men, who were detached in separate bodies belonging to the respective engines, were inspected, after which they were sent about their work. The Government Brigade was under Superintendent Wodehouse and Assistant Superintendent Horspool, Mr. J. S. Brewer being in charge of the engines, and the Hongkong Fire Co.'s steamer under Foreman Coxon. All the engines worked well, the best being Government No. 4 and the Hongkong Fire Co.'s steamer, which threw up powerful columns of water to a considerable distance. The manuals proved substantially the inferiority of man power compared with steam power, and the two hoses from street plugs made a miserable show. An extincteur in charge of Mr. Kemp, of the Government Brigade, threw a jet of water a distance of some twenty-five to thirty feet; it might render valuable services at the breaking out of a conflagration. His Excellency having viewed the working with the hoses, an elastic ladder manoeuvre was gone through, which proved to satisfaction the efficiency of the men in climbing to the height of a three-storeyed building taking with them the nozzle of the hose, and the facility with which the hose can be hauled up to the window of any house.\n\nThe men were then formed up into line, and His Excellency addressed them as follows:- Mr. Superintendent Wodehouse, officers and men of the Government and Volunteer Brigades,-It is with great pleasure that I have inspected you this day for the third time. As on previous occasions, I congratulate you on the way you do your work and on the efficient state of your engines. You see that I have come here accompanied by my gallant friend General Cameron, who authorises me to inform you that he is much pleased by your smart and soldierlike bearing. My gallant friend has also just told me that shortly before leaving England he visited the Head-quarters of the Fire Brigade in London, where everything is done with great éclat; but I am sure that you are not behind in efficiency. Other Volunteers are called upon to protect their fellow-citizens only against external enemies, who may never attack; but you, gentlemen of the Fire Brigades, fight with Fire, an enemy ever present in our homes, and who may burst forth upon us at any moment. I am sure that your motto will ever be \"Ready, aye ready.\"\n\nSuperintendent Wodehouse then called upon the men for three cheers for the Queen, three cheers for the Governor, and three cheers for the General, all of which were heartily responded to, after which orders were given to reel up the hoses and the proceedings terminated.\n\nPage 141",

        "content_text": "The mere matters of detail, which result from the Ordinance. Such is the Ordinance, and I ask for it on the part of members of this Council careful investigation, as I am sure they will give it the most impartial consideration. Viewing the importance of the matter, I am sure they will approach the study of it without any preconceived ideas. I do not pretend that it is perfect. It would be simply impossible to produce an Ordinance dealing with this important subject, an Ordinance of this length, without some defects in it. But it has received very careful attention from my hon. friend the Surveyor General, it has passed the scrutiny of the Sanitary Board, and I believe it occupied several of their sittings. It was considered in the Executive Council, where some of its provisions were modified; and I think now that it contains the minimum of restrictions and the maximum of concessions. Viewed in comparison with the legislation in England, it is far less restrictive, but if after further examination, and hearing the arguments for and against it, it is found there are modifications which can be made without impairing the efficiency of the Bill, I am sure the Government will not refuse to listen to the...\n\nI beg to apologise to the Council for the great time I have taken up in explaining this measure. I have two reasons which I hope will excuse me. The first is that it is only within the last forty-eight hours that I could seriously take up the consideration of the subject and I had no time to condense these extracts. In the second place, I have had a very sad and long experience of the evil effects of unsanitary conditions; I have had the misfortune of seeing relations of mine and friends of mine cut down in the prime of life, and I believe that if proper sanitary measures had been taken they would be alive now.\n\nOne word more, sir. The alchemist of old vainly sought for the philosopher's stone, which was to turn the baser metals into gold and from which he could compound an elixir of life, which would prolong human existence and restore to age the elasticity of youth. Needless to say all his attempts were in vain, and nothing but bitter disappointment awaited him after all his labours and energies at the end of many years of wasted devotion. But we, sir, living in happier and more enlightened times have, I trust, found the philosopher's stone. What the alchemist vainly attempted to discover, modern science will, I believe, give us, if we humbly stoop to listen to her teaching. We can prolong life, and keep sickness and disease from our doors. It has been shown that sanitary works have saved thousands of human lives, and have greatly diminished sickness; while the utilisation of waste products, which were considered as mere filth and dirt, have given and will give golden harvests.\n\nThe work is difficult and the task arduous, but let us approach it with confidence—confidence that if we manfully persevere to the end success will wait upon us and our reward will be a great one. It will neither be a mercenary one nor a selfish one. It will consist in distributing the blessings of health to those nearest and dearest to us, and when epidemics rage around us in other countries, we will dwell secure in our fortress of cleanliness. Troubles and sacrifices may await us, but nothing should daunt us. No sacrifice is too dear, for nothing is so costly, nothing so mars our pleasures, nothing frustrates our plans and at last blasts our brightest hopes, as dirt and disease. (Applause.)\n\nThe SURVEYOR-GENERAL—I rise, sir, to second the motion for the first reading of this Bill. My hon. and learned friend has gone into the subject so exhaustively, and has touched on so many details, including the cost of funerals, that I must confess he has left his seconder little to add. Notwithstanding, I would be allowed to make a few explanatory remarks on one or two of the subjects dealt with in the Bill. I shall do so very briefly indeed.\n\nI presume, sir, it will be no violation of any official secret if I mention that the authorship of the measure before us is mainly attributable to the Sanitary Board, a body to which I have the honour to belong. I mention the circumstance because I desire to avail myself of the first public opportunity I have of saying that every member of that Board addressed himself to the consideration of this measure with the fullest sense of his responsibility to the public and to vested interests.\n\nI do not think it is any more a violation of official secrets to add that the Executive Government, yourself, sir, notably, have been disposed to approve generally the policy and attitude of the Sanitary Board in this matter, and that the Government has abstained from making the provisions of this Bill more stringent, although it was discovered soon after its submission to the Executive that those provisions fell far short of the requirements of the Sanitary law of England.\n\nBoth the Sanitary Board and the Government have in fact been animated by a desire to hurt, as little as possible, vested interests. But the application of remedies to great evils must always ruffle somebody, and I understand we may expect opposition in this case from the landlord interest in Hongkong. If that is so, all I will say is, that any landlord who will master the details of the Bill, will find that, from beginning to end, due regard has been paid to private interests; that concession has been stretched to the utmost limit consistent with the exigencies and requirements of sanitation.\n\nI will now go straightway to those provisions which may be said to press peculiarly on private interests. Imprimis, the Bill requires that every builder of a new tenement to be hereafter erected and every owner of an existing tenement shall put his house-drain in proper order. I am told this will be an undue exaction on the poorer landlords. It may or may not be so. But I have worked out an estimate of the cost of constructing, trapping, and ventilating the house drains of an ordinary Chinese tenement and I find that the amount will average about $70. I would ask, is it too much to ask a property owner to spend $70 in rendering his house healthy to himself, his family, or to his tenants? I should think not. I should hardly think such a sacrifice would be called an undue one, more especially if it is considered that the $70 I have named is the average and that in respect of smaller tenements owned by landlords of lesser means the outlay would no doubt be much less, and might be $30, $40, or $50 only.\n\nTherefore, I can scarcely think that as regards the drainage clauses in this measure, there can be any reasonable opposition. And while on this subject of drains, I would desire once more to remind this Council of the main drainage works on which the Government has been engaged for the last five years. The Department over which I have the honour to preside has been carrying out from year to year extensive works, in the construction, extension, and improvement of the public sewers of the town. An important instalment of most useful work has already been accomplished in this connexion, but the task it must be confessed is one of some magnitude.\n\nThe town is large and there unquestionably remains yet a good deal to be done. But the whole of the money that has been expended in the amelioration of our public sewers, and the whole of the money which may be expended in the future on work of this nature, will be entirely thrown away if the private landlord is not compelled on his part to do his allotted share of the work and construct or reconstruct the house drains on his own premises, so that the house sewage may not clog and ferment, or the gases which fermenting sewage throws off enter his house.\n\nIt will be obvious that unless the landlord is compelled to do his share of the work, the most perfect system of public sewers will be of no avail in the attainment of a complete and efficient system of drainage.\n\nThe next point on which I desire to touch, sir, is the leaving of open spaces around buildings, in order to secure adequate light and ventilation. This Bill requires that an open yard of 10 feet shall be left at the back of every new building, and that the future private lanes along the front of houses shall be, at least, 15 feet wide.\n\nIn a letter which I hold in my hand and which was addressed by the Sanitary Board to the Government some months ago the following passages occur with reference to this matter:--\n\nThe Bye-Laws of the Local Government Board prescribe that every tenement shall have a back-yard ten feet wide in order to secure the light and ventilation necessary to the health of the inmates, and it is further provided that if the tenement be fifteen foot high the back-yard shall be fifteen feet wide, that if the tenement be twenty-five foot high the back-yard shall be twenty feet wide, and that if the tenement be thirty-five feet high the back yard shall be at least twenty-five feet wide.\n\nIn Hongkong, native tenements are generally three storied and would therefore in accordance with western hygienic rules require back-yards at least twenty-five feet wide. The Board, however, has not been able to recommend, for the reason previously given, any back-yard wider than ten feet even for three storied houses intended to be reconstructed. This width is less than one-half that laid down by English municipalities, notwithstanding that the tropical climate of Hongkong would seem to exact a more generous provision of air space.\n\nIt will be seen from the extract which I have read that with respect to these open yards at the back of human dwellings designed to afford light and ventilation to the inmates, the provisions of the Bill before us do not come up by one half...\n\nPage 36",

        "content_text": "## MATERIALS FOR A HISTORY OF EDUCATION IN HONGKONG.\n\nThe system of Grants-in-Aid in these Schools is slowly advancing. The future proved that this observation was based on a delusion, as Dr. Stewart himself was not slow in finding fault.\n\n1870. The ebb-tide of the Protestant educational movement of the Colony continued throughout the year 1870, and indeed for nearly two years after. There were 20 boys and 9 girls under tuition at the Diocesan Home and Orphanage under the charge of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur, the expenses of the institution amounting to $3,750. In forwarding to the Government the statistics of this School, Bishop Alford added the curious remark that previous to the absorption of the pupils of St. Paul's College, this School was called the Diocesan Female School. Miss Riekomartz continued to teach 15 Chinese girls in the Baxter Vernacular Day School, which cost the Baxter family $450. The London Mission, having closed their Girls School, continued their two Chinese Boys Schools, attended by 25 boys in Taipingshan and 35 boys in Wautsai. At the Berlin Foundling House, Miss Siss had 24 Chinese girls under her tuition.\n\nAmong the Roman Catholic Schools of the year 1870, St. Saviour's College continues in the front rank. There were 114 boys under the tuition of Messrs. T. Terry, V. Pereira, P. Senna, Sam Mat-chi, Chuu Fat-chi, and Father T. Mourn, and cost the Propaganda Society $2,112. At the Reformatory, under the direction of Father Burghignoli, 56 boys received an industrial education at the cost of $1,860. The two Seminaries also continued in working order. At the Propaganda Institution there were 12 students under the tuition of Father Hugo costing $660, whilst 16 students were under Père Lauesigne at the French Institution on Caroline Hill (Sookonpoo). The Propaganda Society's Chinese School at Spring Gardens, under Mr. T. Leang, was attended by 87 Chinese boys, costing $144. The Sisters of the Italian Convent had 120 girls under tuition in their three Schools (English, Portuguese and Chinese) in Caine Road, costing $3,600, and in their Spring Gardens School they had 20 Chinese girls, costing $120. The Sisters of the Asile de la St. Enfance continued their two Schools, one under Sister S. Mary who gave instruction to 10 boys and 82 girls, whilst in the other School Sister Marie Theresa taught 4 boys and 61 girls.\n\nThe Government Schools increased very considerably during the year 1870. At the Central School there were only 225 scholars in average attendance, costing the Government $31.24 (or $26.19 per enrolment) for each scholar, but at the Village Schools (now 23 in number) there were 548 scholars in average attendance, costing the Government $3.81 per scholar. Another notable mark of progress is found in the fact that 11 girls were included among the scholars of the outside Schools. At the Central School the elements of music were taught during the year 1870 as an experiment which, unfortunately, was not continued in subsequent years. Dr. Stewart reports favourably on the English department of the Central School, but states with reference to his management of the Chinese department that \"a good deal of latent opposition has to be encountered in the teaching of Chinese in the School,\" a complaint which naturally has perpetuated itself to the present day and must continue so long as Chinese is not taught according to Chinese principles. At the same time Dr. Stewart has now discovered one good trait in the Chinese character: the extreme docility of Chinese boys, which makes 'a school of Chinese boys a disciplinarian's paradise.' As to the Village Schools, Dr. Stewart already finds now that his hopes as to the applicability of the Grant-in-Aid system to Village Schools are a long way from their realization and that \"the villagers use the system to plunder the Government and to squeeze the Masters.\" In the same Report, Dr. Stewart makes a suggestion which unfortunately has never been adopted though often since urged upon the Government. He stated that, in spite of the facilities offered by the Roman Catholic Schools, \"the greatest educational want in Hongkong is that of a School or Schools for European and American children,\" (a want still unsupplied in 1891), and that \"the Government might fairly charge itself with providing the expenses of the site and the building, whereupon the fees would go far to make the School self-supporting.\"\n\n1871.\n\nFinally, there were 20 Chinese girls under the tuition of Miss Siss at the Berlin Foundling House. But these were all the Protestant Schools of Hongkong.\n\nWith the year 1871 the Protestant Schools reached at last the nadir of their decline, after the passing of which they rapidly increased and soon outstripped both the Catholic and the Government Schools. The census of 5th May, 1871, proved the existence in the Colony of 74 Schools with 2,706 scholars, of whom 245 were of British or Foreign extraction (149 boys and 96 girls), the remaining 2,461 scholars being Chinese (2,091 boys and 380 girls). The subjoined statistics, compared with the census returns, will further show that there were in 1871 at work in Hongkong 31 private Chinese Schools with 684 scholars (650 boys and 34 girls), 26 Government Schools with 1,293 scholars (1,201 boys and 92 girls), 13 Roman Catholic Schools with 612 scholars (293 boys and 319 girls), and 4 Protestant Schools with 117 scholars (56 boys and 61 girls).\n\nAs to Protestant Schools, there was in the first instance the Diocesan School, now (as ever since) under the management of a Committee of which the Bishop (and in his absence the Colonial Chaplain) was chairman. There were 18 boys and 11 girls under the tuition of Mr. and Mrs. W. M. B. Arthur and a Chinese teacher, the expenses being $4,000. There were further the two London Mission Schools at Taipingshan (the best permanent of all Protestant Schools, for they exist to the present day ever since 1868, forming thus quite an exception to the rule), with an aggregate of 68 Chinese boys and costing $500. And there were finally 20 Chinese girls under the tuition of Miss Siss at the Berlin Foundling House.\n\nAt St. Saviour's College, the R. C. Propaganda Society had 142 scholars, under the tuition of Messrs. J. Terry, V. Pereira, M. Baptista, R. Pinto, Chun Tat-chi, and Sam Mat-chi, at a cost of $2,301.\n\nAt the Italian Convent 60 European and 110 Chinese girls were under instruction in the usual three divisions (English, Portuguese and Chinese). The cost is not stated. But there must have been at this time some dissatisfaction felt among the Portuguese community as regards the methods of both St. Saviour's College and the Italian Convent, as four separate private Schools, designed for Portuguese children, were started at the beginning of the year 1871. Mr. T. Crosby opened, in Pullinger Street, an English School for Portuguese attended by 16 boys, at a cost of $840. Mr. J. M. da Silva e Souza conducted an English and Portuguese School attended by 20 boys. Mrs. Ferraz, in a separate Portuguese Girls School, had 13 girls, and Mrs. Baramta had, in another School, 14 girls under instruction. At the Westpoint Reformatory, under the direction of Father Burghignoli, 54 boys received an industrial education at a cost of $2,400. The French Mission removed their Ecclesiastical School from Sookoonpoo to Canton, but the Propaganda Society continued their Seminary at Pottinger Street, where 11 students were under the instruction of Father Longo. The same Society continued also its Chinese School at Spring Gardens, under Mr. T. Leang, attended by 38 boys. In the same neighbourhood the Italian Sisters continued their Girls School where Sister Matilda had 20 girls under instruction. At the Asile de la St. Enfance 12 boys and 78 girls were under the tuition of Sister S. Mary, but the other School of the French Sisters appears to have been closed.",

        "content_text": "301 \n\n## INDIGNATION MEETING AT SHANGHAI \n\nSHANGHAI, August 6th, Noon. \n\nA public indignation meeting was held here last night in the “Astor Hall” under the auspices of the China Association. Mr. R. M. Campbell presided and the building was packed with leading residents of various nationalities, chiefly British, American, German and French. \n\nThe meeting was the largest gathering of Europeans ever held in Shanghai. \n\nThe following resolution was carried unanimously: \n\n\"Resolved to appeal to our respective Governments for protection from outrage by Chinese and against the apparently inadequate manner in which the persons guilty of former outrages have been and are being dealt with.\" \n\nCopies of this resolution have been telegraphed to London and Washington. \n\nA largely attended indignation meeting was held at Foochow last night. \n\nAbsolutely no provocation whatever was given for the attack on the missionaries. \n\n## AN AMERICAN MISSION DESTROYED \n\nThe work of pillage and murder is reported to be still going on in the province of Fuhkien, and news has now reached here from Foochow to the effect that the American Mission house at Ingkok, near Kucheng, has been burnt. \n\nIt is not yet known whether any lives were lost at Ingkok. \n\n## SERIOUS CRISIS AT FOOCHOW \n\nSHANGHAI, August 6th, 5 p.m. All the Europeans resident at Foochow now find themselves in a very critical position owing to the hostile feeling openly evinced by the natives, who have suddenly become grossly offensive and overbearing in their attitude towards foreigners. \n\nThe native officials have reported to the various foreign Consuls stationed at Foochow that should any outbreak occur they feel certain that they will be quite unable to cope with the mob, for the reason that not only the district of Kucheng (where the recent massacre of British Missionaries took place) but the whole province of Fuhkien is in a state of rebellion against the government. They state their willingness to preserve order, but aver that they can do absolutely nothing to put down a general anti-foreign outburst of the masses. \n\nThe American mission at Fungfuk has been burnt and the occupants escaped massacre only through evacuating their homes shortly before the \"Crusaders\" delivered the attack. \n\nThe whole of the European and American residents of Foochow have appealed to their respective High Authorities in the Far East for protection and have asserted in their telegrams that gunboats should be at once sent right up to Foochow, anchor off the Settlement, and clear for action. \n\nThe extremely critical position of many missionaries now resident at various inland cities causes great anxiety to the foreign residents of Foochow, and it is generally conceded that drastic measures must at once be adopted by the various foreign Governments concerned to put a stop to further dastardly outrages upon foreigners. \n\nSir Nicholas O'Conor has telegraphed to the Chairman of the Shanghai branch of the China Association, in reply to his communication respecting the resolution carried at the indignation meeting last night, that he has directed Mr. Mansfield, British Consul at Foochow, to proceed immediately, under military escort, to Kucheng, there hold an enquiry into the massacres, and then promptly report to Peking. \n\nThe Emperor of China is very angry about the Kucheng massacres and has issued a decree ordaining immediate capital punishment for all persons found guilty. \n\n## THRILLING DETAILS OF THE OUTRAGES \n\nMEN WOMEN AND CHILDREN HACKED TO PIECES AND BURNT \n\nTHEIR ORDERS WERE TO \"KILL OUTRIGHT\" \n\nShanghai, August 6th, 1 p.m. \n\nDr. Gregory, one of the survivors, reports that at thirty-five minutes past noon of the 1st August a native rushed into his study saying \"some foreign ladies at Huasan, Kucheng district, have been killed and their houses have been burned.\" Fifteen minutes later a note from the Rev. Phillips confirmed the report issued from the Magistrate's Yamen, where hundreds of excited people were attempting to effect an entrance. Magistrate Wong immediately proceeded to Huasan, taking sixty soldiers with him for the purpose of suppressing the riot. At 3 p.m. he left Kucheng city and at 8 p.m. he arrived at Huasan. \n\n### LIST OF THE WOUNDED \n\nIt is now definitely known that nine British subjects have been murdered. Those reported alive at Huasan, all more or less injured, except the Rev. Phillips, are: \n\n| Name | Injury |\n| --- | --- |\n| MISS CODRINGTON | Cut from the left angle of the mouth diagonally outward and downward. The wound is seven inches in extent and completely divides the lower lip, exposing the jaw-bone. She has a nasty cut on the crown of her head, three inches in length, which exposes the skull. This lady also has a bad cut across the nose; a cut under her left eye, three inches long; a deep gash on the right side of the neck; two wounds in the right arm and a deep spear wound in the right thigh. |\n| MISS HARTFORD | Suffering from some slight injury to the chest. She was beaten while on the ground and trampled upon by the mob. |\n| MILDRED STEWART, aged 12 | Badly wounded in the right knee, the joint of which is exposed. She also has a wound 6 inches long by 2 inches wide in the left leg. |\n| KATHLEEN STEWART, aged 11 | Slightly bruised. |\n| HERBERT STEWART, aged 6 | Had a deep wound in the right side of the neck, four inches long. He is also suffering from a compound fracture of the skull at the back of the head, one cut on the head cut clean through the skull, exposing the brain. He has also a nasty wound on the left side of the head, a wound in the chest and a stab in the back. He died 30 hours after the first onslaught. |\n| EWAN STEWART, aged 3 years | Stabbed in the left thigh and badly bruised. |\n| Mrs. Stewart's baby, 13 months old | Wounded in the forehead. His skull is fractured and he has several bad bruises about his body. |\n\n### THE DEATH ROLL \n\nThe list of those who were killed outright is as follows: \n\n- The Rev. and Mrs. Stewart\n- MISS NELLIE SAUNDERS\n- LENA, an Irish nurse in the employ of Mr. Stewart. She was burnt to death in the Stewart's house\n- HESSIE NEWCOMBE - frightfully speared and ultimately thrown over a high precipice\n- MISS MARSHALL - throat cut, her head being almost completely severed from her body\n- MISS STEWART's body has no wounds about it, and it is possible and probable that her death is due to severe shock to the nerves\n- MISS GORDON (Australian) - deep wounds in face, neck, side and head\n- MISS TOPSY SAUNDERS - death caused by spear wound, the weapon entering the brain through the right orbit\n\n## LATER DETAILS \n\nThe massacres were the work of members of a secret society known as the \"Vegetarian\" party or sect, and the attacking party consisted of men armed with spears and swords. They appeared well organized and were under one leader. \n\nThe missionaries had no suspicion of an attack. The whole affair was sudden and most terrible and the butchery was over in half an hour. \n\nThe missionaries begged and beseeched the blood-thirsty ruffians to spare their lives, and went so far as to offer to surrender their property and their valuables if allowed to leave the district in peace. Some of the brutal gang were moved to compassion by the mother, who, with pale face and tears in her eyes, sought to protect her children from the ferocity of the savage assassins. She appealed in vain however, for the leader of the mob replied to all appeals for clemency by saying to his crew \"you know your orders: kill outright.\" \n\nThe scenes were, according to the survivors, awful, heartrending, and indescribably diabolical.\n\n## CHINESE TROOPS LOOT THE VICTIMS' HOUSES \n\nSHANGHAI, August 8th. The troops sent by the Viceroy of Fuhkien province to quell the disturbances at Kucheng and protect the property of the missionaries have looted the victims' houses, ransacked their boxes and wardrobes and appropriated everything belonging to the murdered missionaries. \n\nGreat indignation is expressed at Foochow and Shanghai in respect to these latest outrages by the troops of the Viceroy, and it is urged that the British Government must take action, the Chinese troops and officials being wholly untrustworthy. \n\nTwo of the little children who were severely wounded at Kucheng are now dying.\n\n## REUTER'S TELEGRAM \n\nOn the 6th instant Reuter wired from London stating: \n\nLord Salisbury has demanded that the Government of China issues a decree ordering the execution of the culprits concerned in the recent Massacre and that the fullest protection shall be afforded to Missionaries in the future. He also demands an escort for the Foochow Consul who is proceeding to the scene of the outrage to make enquiries. China has assented to these demands.\n\n## THE KUCHENG ATROCITIES \n\n### GREAT INDIGNATION MEETING IN THE THEATRE ROYAL \n\nA public indignation meeting convened by Dr. Jas. Cantlie and his partners, Drs. Hartigan and Stedman, was held in the Theatre Royal, City Hall, at noon on the 8th instant. It was the largest, most representative, and thoroughly enthusiastic public meeting ever held in the colony, and as such was keeping with the terribly melancholy occasion which it was intended to commemorate and the grave issues involved in the settlement of the questions connected with the heartless massacre of missionaries - men, women, and children.",

Jan 4 1896\n\nEnclosure.\n\nThe Daily Press.\n\nHONGKONG, JANUARY 20TH, 1896.\n\nTHE PO LEUNG KUK SOCIETY'S NEW HOME.\n\nLAYING THE FOUNDATION STONE.\n\nOn Saturday afternoon, His Excellency the Governor, Sir William Robinson, K.C.M.G., performed the ceremony of laying the foundation stone of the new home for women and girls which is being built by the Po Leung Kuk Society. Special arrangements had been made in connection with the ceremony, the complete success of which foretells a prosperous future for this worthy Society. His Excellency and suite were escorted from Government House by four mounted troopers, and throughout the entire length of the route, large crowds of people assembled on each side of the street. Punctually at the appointed time, 2.30, His Excellency arrived at the site of the new home, and he was received by a guard of police under Chief Inspector Corcoran. A very large number of ladies and gentlemen had assembled in response to the Committee's invitation, amongst those present being His Excellency Admiral Buller and Mrs. Buller, Hon. J. H. Stewart Lockhart and Mrs. Lockhart, Hon. W. M. Goodman and Mrs. Goodman, Hon. F. A. Cooper and Mrs. Cooper, Hon. F. R. Belilios, Hon. A. McConachie, Hon. J. J.

J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, the President of the Committee, who said: \"Your Excellency--On behalf of the Po Leung Kuk Society, I have the honour to request you to lay the foundation stone of the new home for women and girls, and in doing so, I desire to express on behalf of the members of the Society their high appreciation of the honour which your Excellency has done them in coming here to-day to perform this ceremony.\" (Hear, Hear.)\n\nHis EXCELLENCY: \"Mr. President of the Po Leung Kuk Society, you and your committee have asked me to lay the foundation stone of the new home for women and girls which it is proposed to erect on this site. I have the greatest pleasure in acceding to your request and am glad to have my name in any way associated with the admirable institution you represent. Before completing the ceremony, however, I should like, for the information of the spectators and of the invited guests, to make a few remarks as to the origin and past success of the Society. Some seventeen years ago, the attention of the public was called by the Chief Justice to the evil practice of kidnapping which was rampant in the Colony and of selling the kidnapped women and children as if they were mere chattels. The principal Chinese residents (all honour be to them) were so impressed with the scandalous state of affairs in this respect that they memorialized the Governor, and through him, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, and they asked for permission to form an association for the purpose of suppressing this terrible crime; of protecting women and girls, and of restoring those who had been kidnapped to their friends or relations. This permission was granted, and the Committee of the Tung Wa Hospital kindly placed at the disposal of the Po Leung Kuk Society a portion of their hospital for the temporary accommodation of the destitute women and girls who had been rescued or might be rescued from the terrible fate which was intended for them. I hold in my hand a return which shows that during the four years ending in 1891, no less than 2,751 persons have been dealt with by the Society, and I have in my possession another return which shows that from 1888 to the end of 1895, the large number of 5,543 persons have been rescued by this Society, the greater number of whom have been sent to their homes or handed over to their relatives. This is, indeed, a record of good work. It is one which must recommend itself to every honest and respectable resident in the Colony. I cannot myself imagine any more useful, charitable, and Christian-like work.\n\n\"It has been well said by Adelaide Procter that 'God has glory when His children bring His poor ones joy and peace.' Well, joy and peace must have been brought to many a troubled household by the restoration of girls by this Society to their own relatives and their own homes, and who dare assert that God has not been glorified thereby? And let me say here that the rules and regulations under which the Po Leung Kuk Society have so long and so successfully worked were drawn up by our eminent Q.C., Mr. Francis, whom we are all glad to see amongst us again restored to health after his serious illness. Well, ladies and gentlemen, you can easily understand that with so much work to do, it was impossible, and it is impossible, for the Po Leung Kuk Society to do that work well and effectually in the cramped and unsuitable premises lent to them so liberally by the Tung Wa Hospital Committee. I consider that the Government and the community are much indebted to the Tung Wa Hospital Committee for the charitable assistance they have for so long given to the Po Leung Kuk, and we, the Government and the community, are still further indebted to the Tung Wa Hospital Committee for handing over to this Society, for their new building, a site which was granted to the Tung Wa Committee some years ago for charitable purposes. You will wish to know how this new home is to be paid for. I will tell you. The Chinese residents have subscribed amongst themselves the handsome sum of $30,000 towards it, and the Government, recognizing the utility and value of the Po Leung Kuk Society's efforts, has added to that amount a further sum of $20,000. With that $50,000, new and suitable buildings will be erected for the purposes of this institution on the site on which we now stand. Ladies and gentlemen, I am glad to lay this stone this afternoon. You must agree with me in thinking that the past success of the Po Leung Kuk Society has been very great. It would be impossible to run such an institution on European lines or under European management. The Po Leung Kuk Society has proved itself worthy of confidence, and I ask you to concur with me in the hope I now express that its future success may be greater still, that it may be the means of minimizing, if not entirely of suppressing, this disgusting traffic, and therefore may be a permanent blessing to the present and future generations of Chinese women and girls.\"\n\nHon. Ho KAI then handed a silver trowel and a silver-mounted mallet to His Excellency, who thereupon smoothed the mortar and the stone was placed in its proper position under the supervision of Mr. Denison, the architect. After tapping the stone, His EXCELLENCY said: \"Ladies and gentlemen, I declare this stone to be well and truly laid, and I ask you now to adjourn to the Tung Wa Hospital Committee Room.\"\n\nA photograph of the group was then taken, and Hon. Ho KAI called for three cheers for His Excellency, which were heartily given.\n\nPage 57",

They had in contemplation, however, only such a limited extension as would enable the British authorities to fortify both sides of Hong Kong Harbour and to defend the hills overlooking it, and expressed their hopes that my demands would not go further.\n\nThis was at an interview on the 5th April. I told them that nothing more would be asked than was necessary for the defence of Hong Kong, but I was unable at the moment to give them any precise details, for I did not myself know what was wanted. I had already applied to the Acting Governor of Hong Kong, and from him I received on the 13th April a chart showing the present limits of British territory, the maximum extension considered desirable by the military authorities, and a frontier which would be acceptable if this maximum could not be obtained. He informed me, in reply to subsequent inquiry, that a copy of this chart had been sent to the Colonial Office on the 9th November, 1894, so that I was able to refer to it in my telegrams to your Lordship.\n\nWith the chart the Acting Governor inclosed a Memorandum, by General Barker, drawn up in 1894, and his own observations on it, and copies of letters from the Hong Kong branch of the Navy League. These documents contained sundry arguments in favour of an extension of Hong Kong territory, such as the necessity for a new rifle-range and for exercise ground for the troops, the inadequacy of cemetery accommodation at Hong Kong and the like; but in view of the fact that, as far as I could estimate, the area demanded amounted to some 200 square miles, I did not think it desirable to put forward these considerations in presenting the case to the Yamên, for they would have met me with offers to give us all territory required for the purposes named. Accordingly, in the Memorandum I presented to them I confined myself to demonstrating the strategical necessity of the line from Mirs Bay to Deep Bay, shown on the Hong Kong Chart as our frontier, and of the islands to the south and west being also placed under our jurisdiction, and I supplied them with a tracing of the chart showing the limits required.\n\nI also represented the difficulty of China's position in case war were threatened between England and another Power, for she could neither grant nor refuse assent to the laying of mines on the Chinese side of the harbour of Hong Kong without giving offence to one side or the other.\n\nWhen I called a day or two later to discuss the matter, the Ministers showed that they had been far from expecting a demand for so large an extension as that indicated. I invited them to compare it with what had been leased to Germany at Kiao-chau and to Russia in Liaotung, a comparison I was able to make the more effectively that I had, through the kindness of Sir Edward Seymour, been supplied with maps drawn to the same scale of these different concessions.\n\nThe Yamên tried to put Wei-hai Wei into the balance, but I told them that Wei-hai Wei had been leased to us as much in their interests as our own, and that we would give it up to-morrow if Russia would leave Port Arthur. I was not, I said, responsible for the amount of territory asked. It had been determined by the military authorities at Hong Kong so long as 1894, and we should, long before this, have invited China to make over to us what was necessary for the Colony's safety had we not been afraid of setting an example to other Powers.

        "content_text": "## THE DEFENCE OF HONGKONG\n\nAs to the North side, hopes are entertained that Sir Claude Macdonald may be able to settle that matter for us, but we should be prepared to settle it ourselves on short notice if the pinch came. Every one is so afraid to take responsibility now-a-days, and the Chinese parrot cry of \"No belong my pidgin'\" is always forthcoming, that we should be prepared with a scheme of defence with our own resources in the absence of the fleet? The public would feel much easier if they knew such was the case, and that every man knew his post and duty faithfully, beforehand. Every point should be thought out, and prepared for, and an intelligence department formed, and instructions prepared for Gap Rock and outlying points. Heliograph stations fixed, and a patrol service of torpedo craft ranged, so that it could be sent out to watch in the event of complications arising likely to result in war; a pre-arranged signal from sea-ward of the approach of suspicious craft would be of incalculable advantage in giving us time to muster for defence.\n\nFREE LANCE.\n\n### THE DEFENCE OF HONGKONG (China Mail, Oct. 12.)\n\nThe series of articles which has appeared in these columns, under the rather curious heading of \"The Back Door,\" has doubtless caused much talk and controversy. It is possible that the articles may have caused some amusement, notwithstanding their realistic character. A certain amount of amusement may have been caused by the fanciful movements of the attackers and defenders, it is to be hoped that something more important than the mere pleasures of imagination will result from the sketch referred to.\n\nA competent critic puts the matter in this way :-\n\n\"Your attractive literary skit entitled 'The Back Door' may open our eyes as well as arouse our thinking powers (and, of course, afford us a topic of conversation); for, conjectural as most of it is, and impossible as many will say more than one incident related must be, it should be remembered that a declaration of war has not invariably preceded hostilities even amongst the most civilised powers. Witness the attack on the Turkish fleet at Sinope, and the so-called reprisals at Foochow in the Franco-Chinese War. The bombardment of Alexandria has been quoted conversationally as a similar illustration, although it does not seem equally applicable. And the Jameson Raid has also been mentioned; but neither appear to be analogous. One was to check an insurrection, and the other (since disowned by the Imperial Government) was something between a demonstration and a premature blunder. Anyhow, to return to our local application of the imaginary defence and final destruction of Hongkong, one can realise, without being behind the scenes, that the Harbour Defence vessels are antiquated, and that the small expense required to mobilise 'suddenly' more than once a year would be money well vested.\n\n\"Another point which is exercising the minds of property-holders is, can the Colony be shelled from seaward or from Mirs Bay? It is generally believed that no hostile craft can get into the harbour, or if once in that she could survive for any time. Another point, what about our magazine? and what facilities exist for the transport of ammunition to the various points which will be necessary?\n\n\"It seems to me that these are points on which our unofficial members might well be exercised. Is it not worth while protecting the shore ends of the telegraph cables, or are we so certain we can at once repair any damage close in shore, that such protection is unnecessary? The cost of carrying out these suggestions cannot be so great as to exclude them from practical politics, and their completion cannot but add to our security.\"\n\nThus far our Critic; and we do not doubt that most of the thinking residents of the Colony will be prepared to go with him thus far. We have also to commend 'Free Lance' for his sensible commentary upon the whole of the situation. Indeed, most men of common-sense realise that something is wanting in our defence arrangements. We are all ready enough to die for 'home and country', if necessary; but the question is now where lies the necessity? It is over the 'system', or rather want of system, which is our weakness,--never our readiness to defend ourselves. Continuity is needed, here, as in everything else in out-of-the-way Colonies. One General, or Engineer Commanding, requires one thing; and he spends money, and stays say three years. Another succeeds, and the pack is shuffled again, and a new game begins. Such (as the saying is) is life in the Far East. So far as we can comprehend the lessons conveyed in the awfully realistic sketch of the noble defence and final destruction of Hongkong (as described in \"The Back Door\"), they are these:—\n\n| Point | Description |\n| --- | --- |\n| (1.) | A proper look-out and patrol of the South side of the Island. |\n| (2.) | Efficient protection of telegraphic cables. |\n| (3.) | Proper official Consuls for Saigon and Vladivostock. |\n\nWe ought to know that the ammunition, food, coal, etc., as well as the men to man all the harbour defence vessels, are at any moment ready for the whole of these vessels to be under weigh as soon as ever steam can be got up. 'It is no secret that the Infantry in the Colony is insufficient for the defence of the frontiers,--that, even with the aid of the guns of the forts, at least one Battalion should be available for the frontier on the mainland; and as the Colony already complains of the Military burden, something should be done in the meantime. Blockhouses, or something more than temporary shelter trenches, should be prepared in the positions commanding the likeliest landing places for a hostile force, to enable the infantry at our disposal to meet the foe with the advantage such fortifications afford. Would it be a waste of money to prepare shelter for the field-guns available, or to know exactly the spots the batteries must occupy to resist a landing at any named point, without running the risk of annihilation from the heavy guns of an enemy's ships the moment they open fire, and to have the passage to such spots kept clear of all obstructions?\n\nIs it not remarkable that Great Britain maintains no Consul in French Indo-China, or at Vladivostock? Are our interests in these places less than those of any of the Foreign Powers who maintain Consuls of their own race in Hongkong? Again, is it not worth while protecting the shore ends of the telegraph cables... \n\n- 36 -- \n- 37 --",

He is hardly the class of person I anticipated to see. The salary offered led me to believe someone of the type of Trade Warder in the Gaol would accept the post and no doubt that was the intention of the Superintendent of Police in fixing the salary. Mr Bullin is a married man of 43, with a wife and a young adopted child. According to his statement, he was Superintendent of the Mile End Old Town Schools from 1898 to October, 1900, and previous to that, for six years, Superintendent of a private Institution called the Orphan Homes of Scotland at Bridge of Weir. He has also been business manager of a Training Home for girls, restaurants, and mission-halls maintained, I understand, by Lady Ashburton. At Mile End, Mr. Bullin's salary was £100 a year with Board and Lodging, and Mrs. Bullin's £40.\n\n2. \nIt may be barely possible for Mr. Bullin, if he observes the strictest economy, to live on his salary, which, with Exchange Compensation, amounts now to $75 a month. But when the hot weather commences, he will have to buy summer clothing, of which he has none, and the allowance given him for furnishing is insufficient. In fact, in a few months' time, as far as I can see, Mr. Bullin must be in debt, and I do not see how he can ever get out of it.\n\n3. \nMr. Bullin has made no application for an increase of salary; perhaps he hardly realises his position. He has already spent the $75 allowed him for furnishing and has to show for it a bad and spring mattress, a dining table, washstand, dressing table, meat safe, and commode, and he now applies for a further $75. Is the Government to grant the $75 asked for, or to wait until Mr. Bullin applies for an increase of salary before taking any further steps, or to anticipate the application and grant him a small increase of salary at once?\n\n4. \nA married man, but without children, and who is well known to live very economically, puts his monthly expenditure...\n\n|             | \n|-------------|\n| Stewart-Lockhart, C.

        "content_text": "# \nExtract from Daily Press of the 20th May 1903-\n\nThe COLONIAL SECRETARY seconded, and the motion was agreed to.\n\n## THE GOVERNOR'S FAREWELL ADDRESS\nH.E. the GOVERNOR said.-Honourable Members of the Legislative Council, this is the last occasion on which I shall have the honour of presiding over your deliberations. I propose, with your permission, to review as shortly as I can the condition of the Colony during the five years of my administration of this Government. I arrived at a time when a most important and far-reaching change was about to be made in the condition of the Colony. Hongkong, which was ceded to Great Britain in 1841, had developed into a great port, with a population of 248,000. Its area, including the point of Kowloon Peninsula, was 32 square miles. The northern shores of the harbour were Chinese territory; at Sam-shai-pa, Cap-sui-moon, and Fu-ti-moon Chinese Custom-houses were established, and Chinese Customs cruisers operated within the ill-defined harbour limits to the great irritation of the community. The Kowloon extension agreement, signed on the 9th June, 1898, remedied this anomalous state of affairs in a harbour that, under the fostering care of Great Britain, had grown into the position of the third port in the world, the tonnage of whose shipping had in twenty years increased from 5,000,000 to 17,000,000. Under its provisions, it became my duty as the representative of Her late Majesty the Queen to assume the government of over 400 additional square miles of territory, with a population of over 100,000, and also over the waters of Mirs Bay and Deep Bay. This agreement gave for the first time complete control over the waters of the harbour and its approaches, and removed the causes of the long-felt irritation.\n\nIt will be in your recollection, gentlemen, that the taking over of the New Territory was not accomplished without some trouble. The delimitation of the northern boundary had to be arranged, and when it had been finally settled, on the 18th March, I, at the request of the Chinese Government, made through the British Minister at Peking, deferred the hoisting of our flag to the 17th April (actually it was on the 16th that formal possession was taken, and the flag was hoisted on the 17th). In the meantime, certain agitators inflamed the minds of the people by false statements as to the result of our occupation to such an extent that armed resistance to the transfer of the New Territory was agreed upon. On the 14th April, the matsheds erected at Tai-pó Ha were destroyed, and the police and troops who proceeded to the place preparatory to the ceremony of the 17th were attacked by large numbers of Chinese apparently under military direction. Reinforcements were at once sent out, and formal possession of the New Territory was taken over on the 16th, so that our position should be made perfectly regular. After two engagements, in which the Chinese displayed considerable courage in acting against regular troops, and suffered some losses, the opposition collapsed. That these attacks upon our forces were encouraged by the then Viceroy there can be little doubt. My inability to permit the Chinese Customs to continue to function within the limits of the Colony was deeply resented by His Excellency, and he refused to send a Chinese official to be present at the ceremony of hoisting the flag on the 17th April.\n\nIn consequence of the evidence of the complicity of the Viceroy with the leaders of the attacks upon our troops, it was decided to occupy that portion of Samchun Valley lying to the north of the boundary line, including the important market town of Samchun. This was effected by a joint naval and military expedition, which met with no opposition, and the district was held for a month by a military force under the command of Major Prendergast, R.E., who acquired the confidence of the people; insured the security of their persons and property; assisted them in making good roads; and ultimately, under instructions from Her late Majesty's Government, withdrew from the district amid demonstrations of good-will from the inhabitants, to whom the presence of our troops had brought freedom from taxation, security of their property, and a market for their produce.\n\nOrder having been restored, the question had to be reconsidered as to the system on which this apparently turbulent population of the newly acquired territory should be governed. Two courses presented themselves-repression, or co-operation. The leaders of the people had been almost to a man actively engaged in the operations against us, but if these leaders were put aside and degraded from the position of focal consideration and authority hitherto enjoyed by them, we should have been face to face with a hostile population, without the means of communicating with them through trusted local intermediaries whose assistance is so essential to good government.\n\nI have had some experience in coercion. In certain situations, it becomes necessary. But it engenders an ever-deepening distrust, atrophies local interest in preserving order, and with the lapse of time becomes day by day more difficult to abandon without danger to the public safety. I felt, besides, that these leaders would not have been guilty of such egregious folly had they not believed the scandalous statements of our intentions that were so freely circulated, and, believing them, I could not withhold a meed of sympathy for misguided men who dared to face in open fight an overwhelming power in defence of their customs and their homes.\n\nI therefore chose the latter course, and, with the able assistance of Mr. Stewart Lockhart, whose excellent work in the pacification and arrangement of the New Territory is well known to the Honourable Members of this Council, I met the elders and gentry of the districts at Tai-pò Hu and Ping Shan, disabused their minds as to their fears, divided the Territory into eight districts and forty-seven sub-districts, and appointed the village elders as district elders with judicial power to deal with petty cases, giving at the same time to Mr. Lockhart a general controlling power with coordinate jurisdiction.\n\nAs a matter of fact, the elders, being satisfied of our just intentions, have never exercised their jurisdiction, but have left these cases to be dealt with first by Mr. Stewart Lockhart, and, after his return to the duties of Colonial Secretary, to Mr. Hallifax, Police Magistrate at Tai-po Ha, whose services are more frequently in demand as an arbitrator than as a magistrate, his decisions being readily accepted.\n\nThe establishment of police stations was proceeded with at once, and a main road laid out, which has since been constructed to Tai-po Hu, a distance of 18 miles, at a cost of $225,133. This excellent road gives access to the centre of the New Territory and obviates the necessity of communicating by sea, a passage not unattended by danger in rough or foggy weather. The construction of the road was carried out without difficulty or opposition, the claims of owners whose lands were acquired being settled at once by arrangement or arbitration.\n\nHaving arranged for police stations and the patrol of the territorial waters surrounding the 390 miles of newly acquired coast line, to check the prevalent robberies ashore and afloat, a trigonometrical and cadastral survey was entered upon, the services of a staff of surveyors and demarcators having been obtained from the Surveyor-General's department of India. The trigonometrical survey has been completed, and 345,926 lots have been demarcated. A Land Court was established to deal readily and inexpensively with the holdings claims, of which 165,231 have been presented to the Land Court.\n\nThe principal cultivation of the Territory is rice, but there is also a considerable cultivation of sugar, and, in the Tai Wan district, pineapples are grown. I found on inspection that the sugar canes were of a poor quality, and the pineapples of inferior flavour, while the primitive stone-mills in use leave a large percentage of juice in the crushed megasse. A number of canes of the best varieties were obtained from Java and Penang and have been distributed to the sugar farmers, and two Chattanooga steel mills were also imported and lent to large growers for experiment. Good varieties of pineapples were imported from Ceylon for distribution.\n\nWhile the cultivated land is now practically confined to the valleys, it is evident from the terracing of the hills that they too yielded their share of wealth-giving crops in the past, and I have little doubt that suitable cultivation will be resumed in the future. In the meantime, over 170,000 fir and camphor trees have been planted, and experiments are now being made with the Agave Rigida, or sisal hemp plant, that may yet, I hope, introduce an important industry into the Colony, while the establishment of succulent grasses on the suitable hill sides ought, if successful, to go a long way...",

It is my duty therefore to carry out the terms of this Con-\n\nvention. British firms are now establishing emigration depôts at all ports\n\nalong the coast and are sending their agents to the treaty ports and other\n\nports in the interior to enlist labourers. A depot for this purpose has\n\nalso been established at Wuchow, and I have deputed Taotai Kuang Hsi-\n\nchuan to superintend, in conjunction with the British Consul, the en-\n\ngagement of labourers and to see that proper order is maintained. I\n\nhereby issue instructions to all civil and military officials within my\n\njurisdiction to call upon the heads of the trainbands in the province to\n\nexhort the people to enlist themselves as labourers, and I publish this\n\nproclamation that all you people in Kwangsi, whether soldiers or civi-\n\nlians, may know that the present enlistment of labourers for abroad is in\n\naccordance with the Convention which has been concluded and that there\n\nis nothing surreptitious about it, the terms of engagement being quite\n\njust. It so happens however that though numbers of people have emi-\n\ngrated to foreign countries from the province of Kwangtung to the enrich-\n\nment of the inhabitants, Kwangsi is in so backward a state that the idea\n\nof going abroad to make a living has not yet suggested itself to you.\n\nThe province abounds in mountains, but land for cultivation is scarce,\n\nand your industries do not flourish. Constantly men amongst you in the\n\nprime of life find that their strength is no use to them and are driven\n\nby cold and hunger to become brigands. And yet it is not that your natu-\n\nral instincts are evil. I have the greatest compassion for misery like yours\n\nwhich drives you from your homes. It is an evil fate which brings you into\n\nconflict with the law. For years now the good amongst you as well as the\n\nbad have suffered. Is it not for your good to seek\n\nPage 540\n\nPage 541",

        "content_text": "## 518 \n\n2 \n\nThe policy of the Yunnan Government has been to reduce to the lowest point even the pretence of a military force. The few soldiers who existed in West Yunnan declined to leave their homes, and the forces, as finally constituted, were made up of all the beggars, loafers, and \"dead-beats\" off the streets, none of whom had the smallest idea of any sort of discipline, or of even how to fire off a rifle. Straggling anyhow along the road in groups of five or six, laden with pumpkins, corn, and vegetables which they had purloined, these dirty rascals resembled votaries of Ceres rather than of Mars. Proclamations were put out that \"a great army is passing, but not even the chickens need be frightened.\" In point of fact, the chickens all along the route had the liveliest cause for alarm, and if the soldiers slay as many lamas as they have stolen chickens, the rebellion will very speedily be suppressed. The provincial Ti-t'ai, or Commander-in-chief, at Ta Li had only thirty or forty men, most of whom flatly declined to budge, and his Excellency had to start for the wars at the head of a motley crowd or verminous ragamuffins, driven off the streets into his yamên.\n\nThe appearance and behaviour of the detachment, nominally of 500 men sent down from Yunnan-fu, was no better. The original detachment of some 700 men which accompanied the Wei Hsi Sub-Prefect to Atentse in June was well armed with an old type of Mauser; but the missionaries at Tseku report that discipline was conspicuous by its absence, and, as Mr. Forrest puts it, the whole affair became a \"squeezing\" and a looting expedition from the start.\n\nOwing to the practice of seizing transport animals without payment, and of pillaging the bazaars, trade is almost at a standstill, even in this district, while at and near Wei Hsi the inhabitants have fled into the mountains, removing their beasts and stores of grain. Thus famine is threatened in addition to other miseries.\n\nThe total force now collected near Wei Hsi, including the original Atentse detachment, is some 2,500 men. Every one—and no one more vigorously than the Prefect of Ta Li—denounces their total want of discipline, and ascribes to their misconduct the troubles which have taken place. For the scandalous condition of the forces the Governor-General at Yunnan-fu is most certainly responsible, as he had received repeated and ample warning of the approach of trouble from his own officials and from the French missionaries.\n\nWhen the Wei Hsi Sub-Prefect reached Atentse early in May, he began by treacherously beheading the Chief Thibetan of the place. This incident seems to have been far more important than I had previously reported. The executed Headman is said by the French to have been meditating rebellion, but the Chinese traders from Atentse and Wei Hsi declare that this was not true. However this may be, this treacherous execution, though, as it is reported, authorized by a secret warrant from Yunnan-fu, had a most unhappy effect, and was not followed up by vigorous action on the part of the Chinese, who, on the contrary, sat down at Atentse and made no further political move.\n\nThe unfortunate chief who was thus summarily put out of the world was the brother of one of the leading lamas of Atentse, and a relative by marriage of one of the leaders of the Batang sedition. After the execution the Atentse lamas dispersed in various directions to raise their dependents, and stir up the other lamaseries in the neighbourhood. The Chinese seem to have been too busy in extorting money to pay attention to what was going on, or to take measures to keep open their communications. The wife of the murdered Chief took a leading part in fomenting the revolt, which broke out in the middle of July, as soon as the barley harvest had been gathered in. The Chinese troops appear to have made little or no resistance, and were driven in, it is said, with some slaughter, to the little town of Atentse, where they were surrounded and remained cut off for over six weeks, when the bulk of them, together, it is reported, with the Wei Hsi Sub-Prefect, escaped by mountain tracks to Wei Hsi, eight stages to the south. News of their escape only reached Ta Li on the 7th.\n\nIt seems to me that their conduct, or their misconduct, requires more explanation than the Chinese Government is ever likely to get. The insurgent lamas in Yunnan do not probably number more than 4,000 or 5,000.\n\n## Events on the Mekong; murder of Europeans; position of the Li Chiang Prefect\n\nAt the same time that Atentse was surrounded, the roads along the Mekong, between Wei Hsi and the Mission at Tseku, were destroyed. As these roads are but narrow tracks along precipices, in some places carried past the cliffs on brackets of wood, their total destruction was an easy matter.\n\nThe Prefect of Li Chiang, Li Hsing Sheng, who had established himself at Wei Hsi since the departure of his subordinate, the Sub-Prefect of Wei Hsi, for Atentse, \n3 \n\naddressed a series of telegraphic reports to Yünnan-fu, but it now appears that these reports were mainly based on mendacious statements of villagers or frightened refugees. The country north of Yetehe was wholly cut off from about the 18th July to the end of August. The worthy Prefect also spoke of his \"cavalry\" and his \"batteries,\" but there was no cavalry, no battery, no infantry. The Prefect had been solemnly promised a force of 500 well-armed troops from Yunnan-fu in May, and it was on the strength of this that he had sent all his available forces and arms forward to Atentse, but the Viceroy at Yunnan had played him false, and the unlucky Prefect was left almost entirely alone and without support at Wei Hsi till nearly the end of August, and then he was provided, as I have described above, with a rabble consisting of the scum of the thieves and loafers of West Yünnan. Prefect Li is the man on whom the brunt of the responsibility will fall, but he is really far less to blame than the Viceroy, who is guilty of gross negligence and misgovernment, or the Wei Hsi Sub-Prefect, who is guilty of systematic misconduct. The Prefect is an honest man, who has always, during a long and hitherto successful administration of a difficult post, had a definite policy of asserting Chinese authority over the lamas. But he has committed serious errors of judgment. He trusted his superiors at Yunnan-fu, and his subordinates at Wei Hsi, and in both cases was deceived. He greatly overrated the efficiency of his troops and underrated the strength of the lamas and their adherents. None of the French missionaries believe for a moment that Prefect Li would have willingly permitted or abetted the murder of Europeans, and in this opinion I concur.\n\nThe lamas having collected their barley and their dependents, and having cut off the troops at Atentse, proceeded to descend to the Mekong and attack the large French mission station at Tseku. The fathers, deceived by several of the local Headmen, who were secretly in the interests of the lamas, had been lulled into a feeling of false security. A guard of forty soldiers with rifles had been provided, but had been withdrawn to Atentse early in July by the Wei Hsi Sub-Prefect. It was only on the 17th July that the fathers became seriously alarmed, and urged Mr. Forrest, their English guest, to depart. Mr. Forrest refused, and determined to stand by them. All the missionaries except the aged Father Dubernard and Father Bourdonné (who appears quite to have lost his presence of mind at the last) were absent at an out-station when the crisis came. Those two missionaries and Mr. Forrest, with the native Christians, escaped on the night of the 19th, only two or three hours before the lamas appeared and destroyed the mission house.\n\nIf the refugees and made the best use of their legs, as Mr. Forrest urged them to do, they would all have escaped south along the right bank of the Mekong, but they stopped to rest, to cook rice, to weep over the destruction of their homes, to negotiate with treacherous Headmen, and so lost twelve hours of precious time. The country south of Tseku consists of a series of valleys or bays in the hills, each cut off north and south by high sharp ridges, and closed to the west by lofty precipices, and to the east by the roaring flood of the Mekong. The lamas, knowing the mountain tracks, got ahead of the refugees and occupied a ridge, thus hemming them into a valley some 4 miles by 1 to 2 broad. In the rush which followed Mr. Forrest became separated from the rest. His servant bolted, and he was left alone with his rifle and some cartridges. For seven days he was tracked and hunted like a wild beast by the lamas; he had to throw away his boots to prevent being tracked, and with the exception of a few ears of corn, he was entirely without food. The lamas patrolled the crest of the valley with dogs, and lit bonfires at night, which made escape impossible until some of them finally gave up the search, and Mr. Forrest was rescued from his perilous position by the pluck and skill of some Lisu tribesmen. Later he was succoured by the friendly Headman of Yetehe, further down the Mekong. At last he arrived at Wei Hsi, 90 miles south of Tseku, twenty-one days after his flight. The worthy Prefect did all he could to alleviate his sufferings, and supplied him with money, food, clothing, and escort.\n\nPère Dubernard, who seems to have been unwilling to survive the destruction of the Mission, where he had lived for forty years, was, it is reported, brutally murdered and decapitated, while it is said that Père Bourdonné met a like fate, but there is no trustworthy eye-witness of the murder, and the only reason for believing that the fathers are dead is the extreme improbability that they can be alive.\n\nThe bitter hostility of the lamas against the French missionaries is easy of explanation. Directly any disturbance arose in the country, it was certain it would take an anti-missionary direction. The existence of the Mission, the lives led by the missionaries, and the great influence which they had gained in the country-side all...",

        "content_text": "# \n\n4. That Percy Kingham (elder brother of the late Harry Claude Kingham), in a private letter to his sister (Ethel Hopkins), has asked for charge of the infant Margaret Vera Kingham.\n\nThe following is the extract from his letter to his sister embodying this request :-\n\n\"Drummond, Natal, South Africa, April 20, 1906. \"I feel very strongly regarding the dear baby Vera that was saved; but, although we know that the child will receive from you the tenderest care and attention, we think that perhaps it is not quite right to keep the child in such a country, therefore we beg for charge of same. As you are aware, Ethel, our ideas regarding religion are not so extreme as yours, but still we strive to do right, and, I hope, we do so. Consequently you could rest assured that the baby would be carefully reared and brought up, even as well as poor Harry and his wife would wish. I should not make this proposal had I not immediate hopes of leaving my present line of business for good. I greatly dislike it, and hope in the near future to devote our whole time to farming wattles.\"\n\nIt should be added that Mrs. Percy Kingham appends a postscript to another letter, dated the 12th May, hereafter quoted, in which she says:-\n\n\"I would so much like to leave Vera with you and Fred as a substitute for Harry and Tavic and Grace (murdered February 1906), but I am not trying to persuade Percy, as he thinks differently, and looks at it more in a business-like way that is, as a guardian, he thinks the child should live with us.\"\n\nAnd further, Mrs. Edmiston, in writing to her niece, Ethel Ada Hopkins, in a letter from Hastings, dated the 3rd July, 1906, says :— \n\n\"I am sure Alice (Mrs. Percy Kingham) does not agree, because she said she was not used to children.\"\n\n5. That this desire of Percy Kingham for guardianship of Margaret Vera Kingham has not been approved by members of Harry Claude Kingham's family (as is shown by extracts from letters given above under heading (2) (a), (i), (iii), and (iv)), and it ought to be added that any petition for guardianship by him would be strongly disapproved of by relatives on the mother's side-i.e., by members of the Pownall family.\n\n6. That your petitioners are not aware whether Percy Kingham, with knowledge of the disapproval of relations on both the father's and mother's side will press a claim for the guardianship of Margaret Vera Kingham.\n\nIf, however, such a claim is pressed, your petitioners desire to make the following statement :-\n\nPercy Kingham, in a letter to his sister, Ethel Hopkins, in asking for charge of the child, says in letter, dated the 12th May, 1906 :-- \n\n\"I am going to ask you to give us charge of the dear baby as you know we at present are childless, and the baby would be to us a priceless treasure, its bringing up a true labour of love. I am asking this— \n\n(1.) As I am the child's legal guardian.\n\n\"(2.) As the country you are in is too unsettled for the safety of the baby, and although you and your husband may deem fit to remain, it is not fair to the child to keep it there.\n\n\"(3.) Because, if possible, we would be as true and careful parents to the baby as ever poor Harry and his wife would have been.\"\n\nWith regard to the first reason, we presume that in this case there must be legal appointment before there can be a legal guardianship.\n\nWith regard to the second reason, it ought to be mentioned that Percy Kingham lives in a disturbed part of Natal, and that quite recently he had boxes packed up in readiness for flight if necessary. Also bearing in mind the strain of the tragedy of the 25th February last, it appears to us that to remove the child to that disturbed region would not be for her good.\n\nWith regard to the third reason given just above, we desire to express a fourfold objection. This objection is based on (1) social; (2) moral; (3) financial; and (4) religious grounds.\n\n1. Social-Percy Kingham's somewhat rough past, with its varying fortunes, ventures, and speculations, cannot have fitted him in character for looking after Margaret Vera Kingham, who up to the present date has been brought up in a simple, though refined, way.\n\nEnlisting about seventeen years ago, Percy Kingham served in India, and subsequently in South Africa. Since leaving the army he has been in several lines of business. At present he keeps a hotel. This also he now wants to relinquish, in order to go in for farming wattles.\n\nFurther, neither Percy Kingham nor his wife have ever seen Margaret Vera Kingham; also Percy Kingham had not seen his brother, the late Harry Claude Kingham, for fourteen years, and had kept up no correspondence with him.\n\n2. Moral-The hotel (where at times Percy Kingham and wife indulge in card-playing), with its constant changes, could not, we think, supply a moral atmosphere, calculated to promote the highest good of a missionary's child entirely unaccustomed to such surroundings. Indeed, Percy Kingham himself implicitly admits some unsuitability in a letter already quoted (Extract 4 (1)), where he says:-\n\n\"I should not make the proposal (asking for charge of Margaret Vera Kingham) had I not immediate hopes of leaving my present line of business for good. I greatly dislike it.\"\n\n3. Financial.-It does not seem that Percy Kingham could well support and educate Margaret Vera Kingham. Quite recently he was in financial difficulties. His creditors wanting payment, he sought (though unsuccessfully) through power of attorney sent to friends in England to raise money on a small prospective legacy.\n\n4. Religious. Percy Kingham and his wife, who is of German nationality, are opposed to missionary work. This is borne out by an extract from a letter of Percy Kingham's wife to Ethel Hopkins, dated the 18th May, 1906. In this she says, \"Harry's (Harry Claude Kingham) murder makes us hate all about missions.\" Evidently, therefore, they could not train a missionary's child as a missionary would desire. Further, in religious views and practice they are very different from the late Harry Claude Kingham and wife. It seems to us, therefore, that however much Percy Kingham might desire to be a suitable guardian to Margaret Vera Kingham, it is not possible for him to be such, and that for the fourfold social, moral, financial, and religious reasons given above.\n\nYour petitioners therefore pray that the claim of Percy Kingham for the guardianship of Margaret Vera Kingham, infant, may, if definitely made, be disallowed.\n\nAnd that your petitioners, Herbert Edward Pownall and Frederick John Hopkins, may be appointed guardians of the infant, Margaret Vera Kingham, sole surviving daughter of the late Harry Claude and Octavia Mary Kingham.\n\nTrue copy\n\n(Signed) E. C. WERNER.",

The arrival of His Majesty's ships \"Kent,\" \"Bedford,\" and \"Flora\" at Hong Kong next month would make more men and picket-boats available for this purpose, and His Excellency the Governor has intimated his willingness to afford co-operation in the patrol. I am in hopes, though, that such action will not become necessary. If the payment of the \"Sainam\" claim can be satisfactorily arranged, and the Chinese patrol service is placed on a satisfactory footing, I am of opinion that our vessels may be withdrawn as each section of the waterways becomes safe for trade, and in this opinion His Britannic Majesty's Minister concurs. It is highly desirable that our vessels should be out of the rivers before the hot season sets in, as life in destroyers and torpedo-boats in these narrow waterways in the summer will be very unhealthy.\n\n## 7. \nThe question of the registration of British vessels at Canton, and their right to fly the red ensign, continues to be actively considered and inquired into.\n\nSir N. de Sausmarez, His Majesty's Judge of the Supreme Court at Shanghai, has just arrived here, and is proceeding immediately to Canton, where, by the British Minister's directions, he will investigate the legal aspects of the question, and discuss with Mr. Mansfield, the Consul-General, what steps should be taken to put the whole matter on a more legal and satisfactory footing. This question of registration was brought to their Lordships' notice in my previous submission of the 28th November last (Inclosure 6); I regard it as one of pressing importance. Whatever alterations in the present system may be finally decided upon, it is much to be hoped that the revised Regulations will in the future prevent any abuse of the British flag such as has undoubtedly occurred in the past.\n\nI have, &c. (Signed) \n\n## Inclosure 2 in No. 1.\nA. W. MOORE, \nConsul-General Mansfield to Admiral Sir A. Moore, \nCanton, December 14, 1907.\n\nI HAVE the honour to inclose translation of a despatch received yesterday from the Viceroy on the subject of the extended patrol of the waterways. At a recent interview with the Viceroy's Secretary, it was hinted that His Excellency was ready to grant \"compassionate allowance,\" not only to Mrs. MacDonald, but also to the British subjects injured in the \"Sainam\" piracy, but that he demurred at paying the claim of the ship on the principle that there was no actual liability under Treaty to pay compensation. I pointed out that the liability was one recognized by civilized nations in similar circumstances, and quoted the claim of Chinese merchants for losses at Vladivostock, and that after all the actual losses of the ship only amounted to between 6,000 and 7,000 dollars. I am informed that the Wai-wu Pu have telegraphed to him to pay the \"Sainam\" claims so as to get rid of our extended patrol.\n\nI cannot, however, vouch for the correctness of my information.\n\n(Translation.)\n\n## Inclosure 3 in No. 1.\nViceroy of Canton to Consul-General Mansfield. \nCanton, December 13, 1907.\n\nI HAVE the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch transmitting the contents of a communication from the British Admiral, in which His Excellency states that the extended British patrol of the West River is simply a repetition of past precedent, and that this action has been forced upon him by the necessity of protecting British commerce. His Excellency adds that he is fully aware that the prevention of piracy properly belongs to the internal administration of China, and that it was the knowledge of this fact which prompted him to suggest, first, that if the increased patrol were placed in the hands of the Customs, the desired results might possibly accrue; and, secondly, that, concomitant with the gradual restoration of order, his patrol would be slowly withdrawn.\n\nAs regards the \"Sainam\" claims, His Excellency refers to the case of the chaplain of the \"Glory,\" who was granted 3,000 dollars for injuries received, and quotes this in proof of the principle of compensation.\n\nIn reply to His Excellency's arguments, I have the honour to state that the permission granted to foreign war-vessels to visit Treaty ports of China is a privilege enjoyed by Powers who are in close amity with China, and depends upon the latter's consent. But I maintain that the extended patrol now instituted on the West River is an infringement of China's sovereign rights, and I adhere to this opinion, though I am assured by His Excellency that the British ships are only there to exercise a surveillance over British interests, launches, and to guard against the importation of arms, and that they will not interfere in matters which do not concern them.\n\nBut, more than this, a good deal of popular feeling has been roused by the Admiral's action, and if it leads to a disturbance, the result will be disastrous to the interests of both countries. I have therefore the honour to request you to at once ask the Admiral to withdraw his patrol. Every effort is now being made to cope with the piracy danger, and to render it impossible for the local officials to evade their responsibilities. Stringent measures are being taken with the new troops to increase their effectiveness, and everything possible is being done to insure the safety of Chinese and foreign launches trading in the delta.\n\nThe business of the Customs is to prevent smuggling. Smuggling and piracy are distinct from one another, and no good can result from confusing them. The 3,000 dollars granted to the chaplain of His Majesty's ship \"Glory\" was in the nature of a compassionate allowance, and not compensation due for injuries received. I have already written to you expressing my willingness to make a charitable donation in the case of the murdered missionary, which is on exactly the same footing as that mentioned above.\n\nIn conclusion, I have the honour to request you to communicate these remarks to His Excellency the Admiral.\n\n(Card of Viceroy.)\n\n## Inclosure 4 in No. 1.\nAdmiral Sir A. Moore to Consul-General Mansfield. \n\"King Alfred,\" at Hong Kong, December 17, 1907.\n\nI HAVE the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 14th instant, inclosing a despatch from His Excellency Chang-jen Chun, in which he adheres to his opinion that the extended British patrol of the West River and Canton Delta is an infringement of China's sovereign rights, and states that every effort is now being made by him to cope with the piracy danger.\n\n2. In reply, I request you will be so good as to inform His Excellency that I am glad to learn that the provincial authorities are making a serious effort to render the Chinese patrol service effective.\n\nIn regard to the extended British patrol, I have nothing further to add to the views I have already expressed on that subject, and as regards the \"Sainam\" Case, I have already informed His Excellency that a compassionate allowance was not asked for, but the recognition of the claim for compensation, which, I repeat, is a just and reasonable one. It only remains for me to add that if His Excellency will decide to settle that claim, and if he will carry out his proposed measures for the suppression of piracy, I will recommend to my Government that our additional patrol shall be gradually withdrawn as His Excellency's measures come into force.",

Satow**\n\n**(No. 12.)**\n\nNingpo, October 7, 1903.\n\nSir,\n\nI REGRET to report the occurrence of an anti-Catholic outbreak at Ning-hai hsien, about 150 li from Ningpo, the particulars of which have been furnished me by the Rev. K. McLeod, a China Inland missionary resident there.\n\nThe Catholics are only represented at Ning-hai by a native priest, who appears to have been in league with a man called Wang Ch'eü-ch'uan in seriously oppressing the people, who, failing to get redress, resolved to take matters into their own hands, and on Saturday the 3rd instant, under the leadership of a man called Wang Hsi-t'ung, collected from the whole country side some 600 strong and marched into the city with the intention of destroying the Catholic premises and capturing the most obnoxious members of that sect. The men were under the strictest control, and had received orders not to molest any one except Catholics, and as the whole country side, the city, and the soldiers were with them, the officials could do nothing to stop them. The Catholic premises were set on fire about midday on Saturday, but the Catholics, having had warning of what was going to happen, had mostly fled, and later on the houses of the more obnoxious members were pulled down, but not burnt, lest the houses of innocent people should take fire. Search was also made for the native priest, who was at last discovered hiding in a tobacco shop. Being armed with a revolver he wounded two or three men before being overcome when he was beheaded, disembowelled, and the body dragged on to the execution ground.\n\nOn Sunday the 4th more men came into the city and a few more Catholics were caught, and in some cases released after paying a ransom.\n\nIt was reported that Wang Ch'eü-ch'uan had been caught at a village some 60 li from Ning-hai, and that he had offered 3,000 dollars for his release, which had been refused. If this is true, as this man was the real source of the oppression, the people will probably disperse to their homes without further trouble. Mr. McLeod and his mission appears to have been quite unmolested all through; in fact, his converts attended the Sunday services as usual. The outbreak seems to have been directed against Catholics solely, and great care taken that no innocent people suffered in consequence.",

        "content_text": "## \nof delegates, who are vested with power to deal with all local questions of public interest.\n\nThe actual executive power, however, rests with a committee or municipal council of six persons, three of whom are elected from amongst its own members by the assembly of delegates, two nominated by the director of railway and the president of the Chiao Shi Chu (or Provincial Board of Foreign Affairs), while the president of the committee is also a nominee of the assembly of delegates. The Chinese Government and the railway company have thus each their representative on the municipal council, but their powers do not stop there for the president of the Chiao Shi Chu and the director of the railway are, by articles 13 and 14 of the agreement, given a general right of control and personal supervision over the doings of the assemblies of delegates and can veto all decisions of the municipal committees, subject, however, to these decisions being sent back to the assemblies for further consideration and being made effective if adopted by a majority of three-fourths of the members.\n\nEven these official safeguards are not considered sufficient, and a still further check upon popular government is introduced into the 10th article, which stipulates, with what seems to be almost superfluous caution, that important questions having reference to public interest or the finances of the municipalities shall, after discussion by the assemblies of delegates, be referred for consideration and approval of the Chinese president of the railway company and the head office of the company at St. Petersburgh.\n\nSeeing that article 10 empowers the assemblies to deal with all local questions of public utility, it is at first sight hard to see how \"important questions of public interest\" can, consistently with that provision, be referred to the decision of another and higher body.\n\nThe explanation given to me by the Russian Minister is that article 15 is intended more especially to apply to municipal loans which it was not thought wise to entrust to interested people on the spot.\n\nIt should be remembered in passing that no Chinese president of the railway company at present exists, the 1st article of the 1896 agreement having fallen into desuetude. The idea in reviving the appointment is apparently to provide an equipoise on the Chinese side to the influence exercised by the head office of the railway at St. Petersburgh.\n\nArticle 16 limits the administration of the railway company to the properties specially set apart for railway purposes, and may thus be taken to define authoritatively the extent of \"le droit absolu exclusif de l'administration de ses terrains,\" which the company claimed under the 6th article of the original agreement of 1896.\n\n## \nArticle 17 is far the most important of all, and forms, together with the exchange of notes, the one essential safeguard for the protection of the treaty rights of other Powers. Much will depend upon the nature of the \"detailed regulations which it is proposed to elaborate, and, as they will deal with police organisation and taxation, it is to be presumed that they will be drawn up in consultation with the representatives of other Powers, or, at all events, be subject to their approval. Otherwise, as I have informed the Russian Minister, they will not be enforceable on the subjects of other nations through our consular courts.\n\nIt seems to me almost impracticable to graft upon the present agreement any rules which will give these municipal bodies a truly international character, but it may perhaps be possible to devise some means whereby other foreigners may be able to live and trade with a tolerable degree of freedom and comfort under a species of Chinese and Russian condominium, tempered with a certain amount of self-government.\n\nThe Russian Minister here realises that other Powers will expect to have a voice in the framing of the \"detailed regulations,\" and, in view of all the interests at stake, it seems important that the American and British Ministers in particular should be authorised to watch the negotiations, and do what is possible to protect the Treaty rights of their nationals.\n\nIt is important to note that, pending the framing of \"detailed rules,\" the existing municipal regulations, to which such serious exception has been taken, are to remain in force, subject to certain modifications provided for in article 18 of the present agreement. Considering the difficulties which are likely to be experienced in framing the \"detailed rules,\" this provisional arrangement may last for some time, and its working will be required to be carefully watched.\n\nThe recognition of Chinese sovereign rights over the railway territory, which is so positively affirmed in this agreement, is, I understand, viewed with considerable concern by the Japanese Minister, who foresees the possibility of the extension of the principle to the Japanese settlements on the South Manchurian Railway.\n\nAs China succeeded in obliging Japan to accept the terms of her arrangement with Russia for telegraphs in Manchuria, so she doubtless hopes by the same means to secure the adhesion of Japan to this modified interpretation of the 1896 railway agreement. But the task will be a much more difficult one, as the Japanese communities have taken firm root on the soil of China, and Japan has always shown a marked disinclination to join in any form of international settlement wherever her people could find a way of living apart under their own institutions. Politically, too, she will probably see strong objections to recognising China as the paramount lord of the railway territory.\n\nI have, &c.\n\n## Inclosure 1 in No. 1.\n\nJ. N. JORDAN,\n\n**Preliminary Agreement, signed at Peking, May 10, 1909.**\n\nDES divergences d'opinion s'étant produites dans l'interprétation du contrat pour la construction et l'exploitation du Chemin de Fer de l'Est de la 22° année de Kuang Hsu, 8 lune, 2o jour (27 août, 1896), les Gouvernements de Chine et de Russie ont arrêté, au sujet de l'organisation des municipalités sur les terrains du dit chemin de fer, les dispositions générales suivantes :-----\n\n1. Comme principe fondamental, les droits souverains de la Chine sont reconnus sur les terrains du chemin de fer; aucun préjudice ne peut leur être porté.\n\n2. La Chine prend toutes mesures émanant de ses droits souverains sur les terrains du chemin de fer, et la direction du chemin de fer ou les municipalités ne peuvent sous aucun prétexte s'opposer à ces mesures tant que les dites mesures ne sont pas contraires aux contrats conclus avec la Société du Chemin de Fer chinois de l'Est.\n\n3. Les contrats du Chemin de Fer chinois de l'Est actuellement existants demeurent en pleine vigueur.\n\n4. Les lois ou ordonnances et les mesures législatives résultant des droits souverains de la Chine sont rédigées et publiées par les fonctionnaires chinois sous forme de proclamation.\n\n5. Les hauts fonctionnaires chinois et agents officiels visitant les terrains du chemin de fer seront accueillis par la direction de chemin de fer et les municipalités avec tous les égards et la déférence de rigueur.\n\n6. Des organisations municipales sont établies dans les centres commerciaux d'une certaine importance situés sur les terrains du chemin de fer. Les habitants de ces centres commerciaux, suivant l'importance des localités et le nombre des habitants, nomment par voie d'élection des délégués qui choisissent un comité exécutif; ou bien, les habitants eux-mêmes participent aux affaires municipales et un représentant est élu parmi eux, lequel se charge d'exécuter les résolutions prises par l'assemblée de tous les habitants.\n\n7. Il n'est fait aucune différence sur les terrains du chemin de fer entre la population chinoise et celle des autres nationalités; tous les habitants jouissent des mêmes droits et sont soumis aux mêmes obligations.\n\n8. Le droit d'électeur appartient à tout membre de la communauté qui est propriétaire d'un immeuble d'une valeur fixe ou qui paye un loyer et une taxe annuels déterminés.\n\n9. Le président est élu par l'assemblée des délégués et choisi parmi eux, sans distinction de nationalité.\n\n10. Toutes les questions locales d'utilité publique sont de la compétence de l'assemblée des délégués. Les institutions qui n'intéressent qu'une partie des habitants, telles qu'églises, chambres de commerce, écoles, établissements de charité, etc., sont entretenues par cette partie des habitants, au moyen de cotisations.\n\n11.

It was necessary that we should have a complete financial plan to present to them, and we could not draw one up until we knew such essential details as the dates upon which the extra sums would be required, the amount which it was estimated would probably be necessary for conservancy work after the period of five years, during which period M. de Rijke hopes to complete his present scheme, the funds available from 1911 for the repayment of the loan of 4,500,000 taels, &c.\n\nThe diplomatic body approved of my views and authorised the dean to write to the senior consul at Shanghae for a statement in this sense.\n\nM. de Carcer accordingly submitted a draft letter, copy of which I have the honour to inclose. Although it appeared to me that this letter did not explain sufficiently what was required, I have not pointed this out, but have written a despatch to Sir Pelham Warren, copy of which is also inclosed, in which I have asked him to see M. de Rijke and set forth the exact position and the nature of the financial plan which is desired.\n\nThe manager of the Hong Kong and Shanghae Bank at Shanghae has written the inclosed letter to Mr. Hillier, which that gentleman has kindly communicated to me. I have written privately to Sir Pelham Warren, authorising him to discuss the proposals therein contained with Mr. Hunter, and I hope, at the next meeting of the diplomatic body, to be able to make some definite proposal for a loan on this basis for the acceptance of my colleagues and presentation to the Chinese Government.\n\nCopy of a despatch from Sir Pelham Warren, transmitting a report by M. de Rijke on the urgent necessity of closing the ship channel, is also inclosed for your information.*\n\nI have, &c.\nM. le Doyen,\n\n## Inclosure 1 in No. 1.\n### M. von Mutius to Doyen of Diplomatic Body.\n\nPékin, le 14 juin, 1909.\n\nMe référant à la circulaire No. 88, concernant la correction du Whangpoo, je me permets, par ordre de mon chef, d'attirer l'attention du corps diplomatique sur les inquiétudes qui se sont prononcées parmi les commerçants de Shanghaï et dans le corps consulaire au sujet de l'œuvre entreprise par M. de Rijke.\n\nUne grande somme a été dépensée pendant les dernières années sans que le résultat obtenu soit de nature à rassurer complètement sur l'efficacité de l'œuvre de M. de Rijke.\n\nIl me semble sous ce rapport très significatif que la Chambre internationale de Commerce à Shanghai, tout en exprimant sa confiance en M. de Rijke, s'est décidée à faire des démarches pour une revision du projet Rijke par une autorité technique indépendante.\n\nD'autre part, le corps consulaire de Shaughaï a résolu dans la session du 11 mai, par une majorité de 8 contre 3 voix, d'exprimer vis-à-vis du Conservancy Board le désir que le \"ship channel,\" qui sert actuellement de communication entre Shanghai et la mer, ne soit détérioré sauf sous garanties que le \"junk channel,\" qui, d'après le projet Rijke, lui sera substitué, soit mis en état de le remplacer complètement.\n\nBien que cette résolution ait été annulée par une autre majorité dans la session du 25 mai, elle peut servir de document pour les appréhensions d'une minorité considérable du corps consulaire de Shanghai.\n\nIl me semble indiqué que le corps diplomatique, au moment d'approcher le Gouvernement chinois pour obtenir de nouveaux moyens, devrait tenir compte de la situation susmentionnée. Je me permets donc de mettre en discussion s'il ne serait pas utile d'exprimer dans la réponse à donner au corps consulaire de Shanghai que le corps diplomatique considère comme désirable:-\n\n(1.) Une revision du projet Rijke par une autorité technique indépendante.\n(2.) Conservation du \"ship channel\" dans son état actuel jusqu'au moment où la somme nécessaire à l'achèvement des travaux sera assurée.\n\nVeuillez, &c.\n\npour\nG. VON MUTIUS.\n\n## Remarks on above by Sir J. Jordan.\n\nI regret that I cannot concur in the proposal made by M. Mutius on behalf of his Excellency the German Minister.\n\nBritish shipping and commercial interests generally are, so far as my information goes, quite satisfied with the progress of the conservancy work, and have full confidence in the ultimate success of M. de Rijke's scheme. The Shanghae Chamber of Commerce seems to share these views, as they state that their object in taking the steps to which M. Mutius refers \"is not due to any want of confidence in the carrying out of his scheme by M. de Rijke, but rather that the good work done by him may be confirmed by a competent expert.\"\n\nI do not see, therefore, the necessity for adopting the first suggestion made by M. Mutius, and, as regards the second one, I venture to think that the diplomatic body are scarcely in a position to issue instructions respecting the technical execution of the work.\n\nJ. N. JORDAN,\n\n31.\n\n## Inclosure 2 in No. 1.\n### M. de Carcer to M. Siffert.\n\nLe corps diplomatique, à qui j'ai soumis votre lettre du 27 avril écoulé, après avoir considéré la demande de 8,089,765 dollars pour l'achèvement des travaux à faire dans le Whangpoo, me charge de vous dire qu'avant de présenter une telle demande au Gouvernement chinois, il désire être en possession d'un plan financier détaillant la façon dont le Conservancy Board veut recevoir cette somme, beaucoup trop considérable pour la demander d'une seule fois, c'est-à-dire, dans combien d'annuités et leur montant, afin que le corps diplomatique puisse le faire savoir au Wai-wou-Pou.\n\nVeuillez, &c.\n\nDE CARCER.\n\n## Inclosure 3 in No. 1.\n### Sir J. Jordan to Consul-General Sir P. Warren.\n\n(No. 48. **Confidential.**)\n\nSir,\n\nPeking, July 18, 1909.\n\nThe question of the conservancy of the Whangpoo was discussed at the last meeting of the foreign representatives held on the 9th instant. M. de Mutius, in the name of the German Minister, withdrew the proposal that the plans of M. de Rijke should be submitted to the examination of experts, and there therefore only remains the question of the provision of funds for the work contemplated. In this connection I pointed out that it was not sufficient merely to ask the Chinese Government to supply the lump sum mentioned by M. de Rijke, namely, 8,000,000 dollars odd. The financial situation of the Conservancy Board was not quite clear to me, and I did not yet understand, from the statements of the receipts and expenditure which I had received, how the money was to be raised, at what dates it would be required, and how provision was to be made for the repayment, not only of the loan, which presumably would have to be contracted, but also of that of 4,500,000 taels, repayment of which begins in 1911.\n\nYet it was absolutely necessary that these details should be known before we could approach the Chinese Government, and that we should be in a position, not merely to ask for a particular sum, but to present to them a regular financial scheme, indicating the dates on which the money would be required, and suggesting, if possible, the manner in which it might be raised.\n\nThe foreign representatives approved my views, and the dean of the consular body in Shanghae will shortly receive a vote asking for information from the dean of the diplomatic body here. I have, however, seen a copy of this draft note and I do not think that it contains a sufficient indication of what is required. It would therefore be an advantage if you could inform M. de Rijke of what is really wanted,",

He suggested one last resource, which was that of diplomatic intervention. Then --- learning of the great influence that Senators Carvajal and Castellot had with the Minister of Interior, and being recommended to them, their assistance was enlisted on the Company's behalf, but their efforts again proved futile.\n\nOn June 6th, the Company, desirous to learn the exact condition of the passengers, engaged two independent Mexican doctors from the city of Mexico, viz., Drs Buyot and Vallarrino, and sent them to Salina Cruz to examine and report on the condition of the men on board the \"Suisang\" in the company of Mr. R. P. Camden, General Agent of the Company. On the 9th they certified as follows:\n\n\"On this date we have examined on board the s. s.

Mr. Chamberlain was not satisfied with this report and on the 20th August, 1903, informed Sir H. Blake that he had impressed this view on Mr. Badeley. Finally on the 7th November, 1903, Sir H. Blake (who had had personal experience in police work) wrote a very strong despatch expressing lack of confidence both in Mr. Badeley as Captain Superintendent of Police and in Captain Lyons, Deputy Superintendent. Mr. Badeley has been absent on leave for the past nine months, and he therefore is not responsible in any way for the recent conduct of Police administration. He is due back on December 13th, and I shall be extremely glad when he relieves Captain Lyons for he has the confidence of his men, and he speaks Chinese. I am in hopes that he will throw himself energetically into the very difficult work which awaits him.\n\nPage 3",

        "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.

Lacks, whose husband is a merchant in San Francisco. She arrived on the Italian liner Regina d'Italia.\n\n\"I was visiting in Ropczyce, a town not far from Lemburg,\" she said. \"On October 10th word was circulated that the Russians were coming, and that all women would better leave before their arrival. Many women went, but many others, myself among them, did not believe the stories of shameful treatment of women by Cossacks and remained in our homes. The Russians entered the town October 15th.\n\n\"They seemed well enough behaved and seemed to justify our confidence that stories about them were all untrue. So far bad timidity disappeared among the people that everybody went to church on Sunday as though there were no Russians in town.\n\n**But soon after the services began Cossacks appeared at the doors of the churches, interrupted the services and ordered all men, including priests, and all children to leave. The doors were guarded and no women were allowed to get out. Then the doors were locked, and there was a more awful orgy than I believed this world could know.\n\n\"Those outside could hear the women screaming, and the howls and laughter of the Cossacks.\n\n\"One old man who had left his daughter, found the door in the church which was unlocked, and tried to fight his way to her. The Cossacks caught him, crucified him on one of the pillars, and as he screamed in agony, went on with their orgy.\n\n\"By the grace of heaven I did not go to the church. I ran away from the town as soon as I knew what was going on, and made my way to Italy.\"\n\n## How to Live Long\n\nNew York, December 14. Moses Wohl of the Bronx today began his 101st year of life, with this recipe for reaching further milestones:\n\nDrink beer and ale every day, sometimes a little wine; smoke at least seven cigars each day; take a good long walk without a cane; read all the newspapers and don't worry.\n\nWohl, who was seen surrounded by four sons and his daughter, fifteen grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, said he regretted he was a little too old to learn to tango.\n\n## O'CONNELL'S, January 30, 1915\n\n### Want Irish Republic\n\nA curious commentary and interesting sidelight is shown in the recent opposition to John Redmond at contested parliamentary elections in Ireland at present.\n\nSir Roger Casement, Professor McNeill and fully ninety per cent of those opposing Redmond are Irish Protestants.\n\nThis party is seeking to have an Irish Republic or at least a measure of Home Rule given to Ireland as enjoyed by Canada, Australia, or South Africa. To gain their ends, Sir Roger Casement went to Berlin a few weeks ago and presumably made things right there. Sir Roger's party are dead against all recruiting in Ireland until their demands are granted. He has a large following in the Volunteers, particularly in Dublin, Cork and the other principal cities. What a complete answer this is to the old cry of the Orangemen of religious intolerance by their own countrymen, for which the British Government were ready to give all Ulster to the Orange party.\n\nOf course, anyone who knows Ireland and Irish History, knows that many of her greatest leaders and best loved sons were of the Protestant Faith, for instance Wolfe Tone, Emmet, Lord Edward Fitzgerald, Mitchell, Smith O'Brien, Parnell. All venerated and idolized in Ireland to-day and all Protestants.\n\nGod prosper Casement.\n\n## Advertisements\n\n### Have You Got the Carnival Spirit?\n\n#### Old Razors Made New\n\n40 cents each\n\nIf your old razor pulls and irritates your skin let us make a New, Soft, Velvety Edge on it.\n\nThe New American Razor Sharpening Machine will put a Sweet, Keen Shaving edge on the Dullest Razor in a very few minutes.\n\nBring or send AT ONCE.\n\n**Better Than New!**\n\nIs what many of our customers say on trying our Re-Sharpened Safety Razor Blades!\n\nWe re-edge and re-sharpen all makes\n\n70 cents dozen\n\nSee these two wonderful new patented machines at work in our Escolta Stores.\n\nWe return all work promptly, Postage Paid.\n\nWalter E.

Bombay was the great centre of these activities for 1915, and there, in the last week of December, was held a series of gatherings of great import to India. First in importance stood the National Congress and the All-India Muslim League. Others were the Social and Industrial Conferences, the All-India Hindu Conference, the Theistic Conference, the Arya Samaj Anniversary, the All-India Temperance Conference, the Theosophical Convention and the newly formed Commercial Congress and Press Association. \n\n### THE NATIONAL CONGRESS. \nThe thirtieth session of the National Congress met in a huge structure capable of holding 10,000 people, which had been erected for the occasion. It was attended by 2,250 delegates from all parts of India, the largest attendance on record since this national body first began, in 1885, to voice the hopes and aspirations of the Indian people. There were also 5,000 visitors and 750 lady delegates and visitors. \n\nThe hall was furnished with electric lights and fans, and profusely decorated with flags and mottoes expressing loyalty to the King-Emperor and devotion to the Motherland, such as \"God Bless the King-Emperor, Protector of India's Rights,” “India Aspires to Have Her Right Place in the Empire,\" \"In the Service of the Motherland,\" etc. The decorative colors of the hall were yellow and black- the black in commemoration of the two beloved patriots who had passed away during the year— Mr. Gokhale and Sir Pherozshah Mehta-whose portraits were conspicuously placed. Picturesqueness was added by the variety of costumes from the different Provinces. \n\nThe president and a number of delegates from the All-India Muslim League were on the platform. There were also well-known patriots, such as Gandhi of South African fame, Surendranath Bannerji from Bengal, Pandit Malavya from the United Provinces, and there was Mrs. Sarojini Naidu, “the beautiful and loved singing bird of India.\" Men and women, Parsees, Mohammedans, Hindus and Christians, from North, East, West and South, had gathered in thousands as Indians, under the flag of one nationality and having one goal in view-\"Self-Rule Within the British Empire.\" \n\nThe proceedings began with a patriotic song of welcome by a choir of Indian girls. The address of welcome was by Mr. D. E. Wacha, well known for his long political experience, his wide knowledge of Indian affairs and deep study of economics. Sir S. P. Sinha, a successful lawyer, who has been a Cabinet Minister in the Viceroy's Executive Council, gave a scholarly and comprehensive Presidential address dealing with questions especially vital to his country at the present time. \n\n### LOYAL RESOLUTIONS. \nThe first three resolutions passed were those of loyalty. Of this phase of the proceedings, St. Nihal Singh writes thus: \"The session of the Indian National Congress that has just closed in Bombay has given fresh proof of India's desire to do her utmost to aid the British Empire during this crisis. Thousands of men, differing from one another in race and creed and gathered from all the Presidencies and Provinces comprising the Indian Empire, have resolved with perfect unanimity to support the British arms by all means possible and at all hazard. The keynote of many important addresses was an appeal to Britain to employ a far larger number of Indian soldiers than she is doing at present.\" \n\nResolutions also were passed unanimously in regard to the Arms Act, the Press Act, and the Swadeshi Movement, and for the military training of Indians, the Abolition of Indentured Labor and the Separation of Executive and Judicial Functions.",

        "content_text": "## GREAT BRITAIN\n\n## CANADA AND INDIA\n\n### THE KING AND HIS INDIAN OFFICERS\n\nHis Majesty the King, accompanied by the Queen, received on February 11th, at Buckingham Palace, a loyal address presented by twenty-six Indian officers, who were about to return invalided to India.\n\nIn his reply His Majesty the King-Emperor said:-\n\nI welcome your presence as a symbol of the unity of the Empire and as setting a seal upon the heroic efforts and sacrifices in which my Indian soldiers, yourselves among them, have borne a common part with all my Forces from Overseas and from the Mother Country.\n\nI am deeply touched by your declaration of loyalty and gratitude to myself; but not less by the generous recognition which you pay to the kindliness and brotherly feeling which you have met at the hands of all your fellow subjects, the inhabitants of these islands. They are conscious, as I am, that the loyal devotion of India to the common heritage for which we are fighting—a devotion to which we have never looked in vain—has been consecrated afresh by the blood of India's sons, shed far from their homes and in a quarrel which, whilst the might of the Empire protects India's shores, does not come near to the lives and fortunes of their kith and kin. But the liberties of the Empire were put into the scale and with them the liberties which India has enjoyed under our rule, and which, please God, she will enjoy in increasing measure as she advances in the path of social improvement and political experience.\n\nI welcome the expression of your thanks for the careful and scrupulous regard which all my officers under my directions have paid to the requirements of your religious usages. I honour the concern which you tell me you felt lest the circumstances of your life in a strange country might imperil the due observance of the rites which are sanctified for you by the dictates of your religions and the immemorial customs of your forefathers. I recall to mind the words in which my revered predecessor, the Queen-Empress Victoria, declared to her Indian subjects of whatever creed on assuming sway over their lives her will that \"none be anywise favoured, none molested or disquieted by reason of their religious faith or observances; but that all shall alike enjoy the equal and impartial protection of the law; and We do strictly charge and enjoin all those who may be in authority under Us that they abstain from all interference with the Religious Belief or Worship of any of Our Subjects, on pain of Our highest Displeasure.\"\n\nIt will ever be the cherished duty of my House and Throne to guard the sacred promise then given in the letter and in the spirit.\n\n### THE HINDU UNIVERSITY\n\nOn February 4th there took place in Benares an event of unique importance in the history of India—the laying of the foundation stone of the Hindu University by the Viceroy. This impressive function was the culmination of twelve years of effort. The scheme of an All-India Hindu University was first projected at a meeting held under the presidency of the Maharajah of Benares in 1904. In 1911 the Hindu University Society was formed for its further development. In 1912 it received the approval of the Secretary of State for India, and in 1915 the bill for the establishment of Benares Hindu University was passed into law. The main features of this University, which distinguish it from the existing Universities, are, first, that it will be a teaching and residential University; secondly, that while it will be open to all castes and creeds, it will insist upon religious instruction for Hindus; and thirdly, that it will be conducted and managed by the Hindu community and almost entirely by non-officials.\n\nThe idea of an All-India Hindu University has appealed to all classes of the Indian people, and contributions, large and small, have poured in. A long list of Maharajas and other prominent men have donated a lakh of rupees ($33,000) each to the funds. Large amounts have been collected at meetings held in different parts of India. At a recent meeting in Madras 60,000 rupees ($20,000) were collected. The Government of India also has given a grant of one lakh of rupees a year. So that the university will begin its career with a substantial financial backing. The site chosen extends over 1,200 acres, and was selected as affording especial facilities for the progressive development of a great University.\n\nLord Hardinge, in his reply to the address read by the Maharajah of Darbhanga, said:—\n\nThis foundation stone will mark a definite step in the advance towards an ideal that has stirred to its very depths the imagination of India. The demand for enlightenment and educational progress grows ever stronger, and the ceremony we are gathered here to perform offers no small response to that demand, and may perhaps pave the way for its more rapid fulfilment.\n\n### ITS HIGH AIMS\n\nHere, at any rate, in this city is a cause where we can all stand together upon a common platform, for no one can dispute that the Benares Hindu University will add to the facilities for higher education and to some extent lighten the pressure of the existing institutions, while it is the proud boast of at least one of those who have so successfully engineered this movement, that the degree of the Benares Hindu University shall be not only not lower, but higher in standard than those of the existing Universities. It has even been claimed that this University will only justify its existence when the education given within its precincts shall make it unnecessary for Indian students to go to foreign countries for their studies and when such expeditions will be limited to advanced scholars and professors, who will travel abroad to exchange ideas with the doctors and learned men of other continents in order to make the latest researches in all branches of knowledge available to them. That is a great and noble aim which I hope may be fulfilled in this University, and think all will admit that the Government have not been backward to give their co-operation and assistance to a scheme so full of promise.\n\n### REVIVAL OF ANCIENT IDEAL\n\nPerhaps I was wrong to say that these principles are new to India. Though in ancient time there was nothing quite like a modern University, its prototype may be dimly discerned in the far distant past, and the tradition that has come down to us is one of thousands of students gathered round the great teachers as Vasishtha and Gautama, and indeed the whole Indian idea of education is wrapped up in the conception of a group of pupils surrounding their Guru in loving reverence and not only imbibing the words of wisdom that fall from his lips, but also looking up to him for guidance in religion and morality and moulding their characters in accordance with his precept and example.\n\nYou hope in the not far distant future to see preserved and fostered all that is best in Hindu ideas of life and thought, all that is noblest of Hindu religion and tradition, culture and civilization, and grafted upon that tree, healthy and strong in its own natural soil, you hope to see growing in it and of it all that is good and great of Western science, industry and art so that your young men may go forth not only inspired with pure and noble ideals, but also equipped for the development of their mother country along the more material lines of progress and prosperity.\n\nOn the two days following the stone-laying ceremony, lectures were given by distinguished Indians, among others the world-famed scientists, Dr. J. C. Bose and Dr. P. C. Roy.\n\nIn the course of his address on \"Invisible Life\" Dr. Bose spoke as follows:-\n\nTo be organic and vital, our new University must stand primarily for self-expression, and for winning for India a place she has lost. Knowledge is never the exclusive possession of any particular race, nor does it recognize geographical limitations. The whole world is interdependent, and a constant stream of thought has been carried out throughout the ages, enriching the common heritage of mankind. Although science was neither of the East nor of the West, but international in its universality, certain aspects of it gained richness by reason of their place of origin. Has India then any great contribution to offer for the advance of human knowledge?\n\nIn the West there has been no check or limit to the competition for personal gain and lust for power in exploiting the application of knowledge, nor so much for staying as for causing destruction.\n\n### POWER OF DETACHMENT\n\nThis gives us a new look at the innate restraining power that governs Indian life and culture. We may call it the force of detachment, or, for want of a better phrase, the impulse of spirituality. Let us see how this common heritage rests on the Indian mind.\n\n### THE EXAMPLE OF ASOKA\n\nAs an extreme case let us see how one of the greatest of warrior kings became suddenly changed under its dominating influence even at the moment of his greatest victory. In the ninth year of his reign his arms were successful, and the extensive territories of Kalinga were incorporated with his Empire. This is what the Emperor Asoka writes on the imperishable stone as the record of his triumph: \"His Majesty feels remorse on account of the conquest of the Kalingas. Although a man should do him injury, he holds that it must be patiently borne. His Majesty desires for all security, peace of mind and joyousness, and the chiefest conquest is through righteousness.\"\n\n### MAN DEDICATED TO KNOWLEDGE\n\nSo much about the man of the world; as regards the other man who truly dedicates his life for the quest of knowledge in our country, any longing for personal gain or misuse of his knowledge would be worse than sacrilege. Poised as he is between the infinity of the past and the infinity of the future, between the universes of the worlds and the universes of atoms, can anything be worth his while, for so sorry a price can his mind be satisfied with anything less sublime than to be merged in the rhythmic sweep of the world-spirit itself! The excessive specialization in the West has led to the danger of our losing sight of the fundamental truth that there are not sciences, but a single science that includes all.\n\n### WIDER SYNTHESIS POSSIBLE TO INDIA\n\nIndia is perhaps through her habit of mind better able to realize a wider synthesis. One of the greatest contributions in the realm of science would undoubtedly be the establishment of a great generalization, not merely speculative, but based on an actual demonstration of an underlying unity, amidst bewildering diversity. Shall this great glory be for India to win?\n\n### EDUCATION IN INDORE MADE COMPULSORY\n\nFollowing the good example set by Their Highnesses the Gaekwar of Baroda and the Maharaja of Mysore, His Highness the Maharaja Holkar of Indore has made elementary education compulsory throughout his State, and thus has earned the gratitude of his people. His Highness has made adequate provision for building and maintaining additional schools for the fulfilment of his object, and as soon as these schools are ready this order will take effect.\n\n### EXPERIMENT IN BARODA\n\nAn interesting experiment in the progressive State of Baroda in the matter of providing free refreshments for school children has proved a splendid success.\n\nHis Highness the Gaekwar appointed a commission some time ago to suggest changes in the system of education in Baroda. The commission, among other things, pointed out the growing physical degeneracy of the youth, and thought that the reason was that the boys attending school at ten in the morning had to stay in school till the evening without refreshments in the interval. The system of providing free refreshments to boys was introduced in a model school and tried for the last four months, with the result that there has been a marked improvement in the condition of the boys.\n\n### WAR AND EDUCATION\n\nUnfortunately the movement to curtail educational grants is now in full swing, and it is growing apace without the slightest opposition from the people. One by one all the Local Governments have announced curtailments of expenditure. There will be no State-aided buildings for existing or new schools, there will be no grants for improving laboratories or libraries, and possibly the newly-started schools may not receive even teaching grants. The total educational grants in the country had been smaller this year than last year, and owing to the new decision for further retrenchment, there will be a further fall, so that I should not be surprised if the total State assistance for 1915-16 should be less than in 1913-14, or than what it was when Lord Hardinge announced his first large instalment of grants. This is by far the heaviest blow of the war so far as this country is concerned.\n\nThe first question for consideration is whether retrenchment is necessary. In England they have fought it, so far as education is concerned, and they have succeeded to no small extent. Why should we not follow their example?\n\n### INDIAN DRAMA\n\n#### A NEW PLAY AND A NEW MOVEMENT\n\nIn January there was performed at Calcutta by the pupils of the Bolpur Brahmacharya Ashram a new play by Sir Rabindranath Tagore, called \"The Cycle of Spring,\" which promises to be epoch-making. Concerning this dramatic venture, \"New India\" writes as follows:-\n\nIt is a notable feature of intellectual activity that no renaissance is ever limited to one phase. A political upheaval is sure to be accompanied by some revival in the Arts; a dramatic renaissance will find itself reflected in a quickened National perception. It was so in Ireland, fifteen years ago. It is in process of being so in India, to-day. There is a new India in politics, a new India in painting, and a new India is beginning to express itself on the stage. To-day at Calcutta, in a secluded ancestral square off a busy street, a number of schoolboys will enact a new play written for them by their Guru. That Guru is Rabindranath Tagore, and he himself will play one of the parts.\n\nSuch is the simple fact; but the significance of the matter is that the world-famed poet has taken over the work of the evolution of the drama, which the sword of Mars has struck from the hand of Europe. From the dull artificiality of the late Victorian cup-and-saucer drama, the stage was saved on the side of its subject-matter by Bernard Shaw. The Irish movement added a soul to Shaw's brain. India will, we believe, bring the Spirit into the drama.\n\nSuch a development of dramatic consciousness must necessarily bring about changes in method. When the drama was dealing simply with the outer world of desire, which is the circumference of the mental world, its craft was on a single plane. The adding of soul to the brain put another story to play construction. The coming of the Spirit calls for a more responsive medium of expression, a medium that will not obscure but reveal \"the more than man\" and woman that has been seeking entrance to all the Arts.\n\nWe see such an instrument in the delicate and luminous method which Sir Rabindranath has adopted, and we rejoice that it is being developed in his own native Bengali. From such a centre of vivid life a sincere art will be carried forward and will react profoundly on the entire dramatic world. The four scenes of the play are entitled Outburst, Search, Doubt, and Discovery. The final chorus is as follows:\n\nCome and rejoice!\n\nFor April is awake.\n\nFling yourselves into the flood of being bursting the bondage of the past.\n\nApril is awake.\n\nLife's shoreless sea is heaving in the sun before you;\n\nAll the losses are lost and death is drowned in its waves.\n\nPlunge into the deep without fear with the gladness of April in your blood.\n\nFor those who want to know more about India, we call attention to the following books, which, as well as copies of *Canada and India*, can be obtained from McAnish & Co., Ltd, publishers, 4 College Street, Toronto: *\"The Web of Indian Life,\"* and *\"Footfalls in Indian History,\"* by Sister Nivedita (Margaret Noble); *\"Religion of the Sikhs,\"* by Dorothy Field.\n\nJust published: *\"True Story of the Hindu Case in Canada.\"* Price 7c., postpaid.

The complaint is a common one, and has not arisen from the people for whom Mr. Bowley advocates, but curiously enough from promoters of industries, that restrictions against the starting of new industries and the exactions from Government are such as to deter the employment of capital and the undertaking of enterprises in the Colony.\n\nOn a recent occasion, the editor of **The Rock** and myself had the opportunity of meeting leading representatives of the Chinese community in Hongkong. We were struck by the remark from one, blessed with much of this world's riches, that the \"law\" of Hongkong was what he so greatly admired. By contrast, it seems strange that a Britisher, whose profession places himself in a special position to set a correct appreciation on the value of our laws, should be the one to cavil at the inadequacy of its provisions to safeguard the interests of the Chinese themselves.\n\nThe creation of the department of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs, which is none other than one for the protection of the Chinese, with an efficient head in the person of the Hon. Mr. S. B. C. Ross, is a sufficient guarantee that the abuses which Mr. F. B. L. Bowley complains of cannot exist to the extent which his paper might lead those not conversant with conditions prevailing in Hongkong to believe. Mr. Bowley's intentions are undoubtedly good, but the method he has adopted to carry them out may be open to objection.\n\n## Kowloon has been favoured by the gods\n\nKowloon has been favoured by the gods at the annual Race Meeting just concluded. Out of the three big prizes in the sweepstakes for the race for the Championship, the second and third prizes went to Kowloon residents. The second prize, which is worth $6,880, was won with ticket No. 1500 by Mrs. G. A. Yvanovich, Jr. The third prize was of a value of $3,440 and went to Mrs. Wheeler, wife of Captain Wheeler, of the Indo-China S. N. Co., and Urquhart, in partnership. The first prize of the very next race (Consolation Stakes) was won by Mr. F. E. Carvalho and his son Mr. Fernão Carvalho, both residents of Kowloon. The prize was worth $3,000. Mrs. Farias won a prize over $3,000 on the first day, and Mr. Farias one of $400 on the second day.\n\nA singular circumstance connected with ticket No. 1509 for the Champions is related by the lucky winner of the prize. Mrs. Yvanovich had a bag of flour bought some time before the races. When the bag was emptied of its contents and while hemstitching the piece of cloth, the design of this special brand of flour attracted her attention. The trade mark is that of the Yueu Fong Flour Mills Co. and depicted a telephone box superscribed with the number 1509 in large figures. The next day she enquired of Mr. U. Rumjaha if that number was available for the Champions. Thus it was that the number which drew the favourite brought its purchaser the handsome gift of early seven thousand dollars.\n\n## \"Catholic Press Day\"\n\n### ST. JOSEPHIAN\n\nHis Lordship the Bishop has decreed that there shall be special prayer at the Holy Hour on Thursday, March 31st, for the prosperity of our Catholic Press. All who are interested—and who is not?—in this important matter should make it a point to carry out His Lordship's wishes by being present in the Cathedral and praying for this intention. On the following Wednesday, the 6th April, the Bishop will call a meeting at the Mission House of the Promoters and friends of **The Rock** and the **Religião e Patria** to discuss means of obtaining better support for these two papers.\n\n## GIRL SLAVERY IN HONGKONG\n\nThe views I made to the papers in the views mentioned above I will repeat in principal features in the belief that it is of sufficient importance to merit reproduction here.\n\n### The Meaning of Slavery\n\nThe word slavery can, in my opinion, be taken in a broad sense, and all depends on how it is used. In a sense, we are all slaves to some person or to some thing. The question as it is now under discussion has already been investigated by the Registrar General (now termed the Secretary for Chinese Affairs) with the assistance of the leading Chinese. The matter has been laid fairly and squarely before the public who now, I think, understand what is really meant by the term \"slavery\" when it is employed in this connection.\n\n### Not Legally Allowed\n\nThere is no slavery in China to-day in the legal and technical sense of the term, nor has the buying and selling of human beings been tolerated by law in recent years, as is clearly proved by the wording of documents used in such transactions. Parents are willing instinctively to part with their children, and nothing but stress will make them bow to this sinful necessity. But this does sometimes occur, as the following instance has come under my personal notice to show.\n\n### A Personal Experience\n\nAs I was leaving my house one day, I saw a poor woman with a daughter about ten years old weeping bitterly at my gate. On enquiry, I found they were nearly starving. Her husband had died three years ago, leaving her with two daughters, one of whom she had fortunately sold to a couple of good disposition. With the proceeds, she had succeeded in building a shack. But now it was tumbling to bits, and she and her girl were unable to earn a sufficient livelihood to support themselves. She begged my people to buy her child; and though refusing the request, we offered her money, she still continued with tears to solicit us to look after the girl.\n\nNow, what, in a case like this, is the law to do? Punish the helpless mother and place the child in a convent or charitable institution? Most of the cases of 'child-slavery' or so-called \"Mui Tsai\" are similar to this.\n\n### Treatment of Girls and Safeguards against Cruelty\n\nIt must be remembered that girls sold into other families as adopted daughters or servant-girls are looked upon as members of the family. They are better fed and better clothed, and do lighter work than with their own parents. Indocile and mischievous girls, no doubt, are punished on occasion, but so are one's own children. But they have their remedies here as on the mainland of China. They can complain to their parents or guardians when these come to visit them, which is always one of the stipulations of their contract.\n\nIn Hongkong, moreover, they have the Chinese Secretariat, the Police, and the Society for the Protection of Women and Children (called the Po Leung Kuk, of which we reproduce a photograph), to all of which the girls are able to carry their complaints, certain of receiving prompt attention. On the mainland of China also, there are charitable institutions where elders of clans and other influential bodies attend to similar complaints; while in Hongkong again, notices are posted up officially in brothels and elsewhere impressing on the girls the necessity of reporting ill-treatment and the fact that they are free agents, so that all Chinese are well aware that cruelty to servants is not tolerated.\n\n### Humanitarian Point of View\n\nSpeaking then from a humanitarian point of view, I am clearly of opinion that unless the wealthy classes and the Government of China agree to co-operate in establishing foundling homes and poorhouses in every district to gather in the poor, support, and finance them, it would only make matters worse to force the common people to end a practice to which stress of circumstances alone has forced them and which it is beyond their power to resist.\n\n### No alteration possible or desirable yet\n\nAs a representative of the Chinese, I fail to see how I could, in view of existing circumstances, lend any useful help in suppressing what is complained of. It is a mode of life adopted from time immemorial.",

        "content_text": "# GIRL SLAVERY IN HONGKONG\n\nThe custom of girl slavery is a memorial by all ranks of the Chinese people, and is moreover a mode of relieving the poor. So long then as Hongkong lies at the door of China, and the welfare of the Chinese in general has not been ameliorated by their own government, is it not better to leave things as they are? At the commencement of the Revolution, it is true, an effort was made to abolish the custom, but without effect.\n\nFailure of the Revolution to effect a change. The attendant difficulties, such as the feeding and lodging of destitute millions in flooded and famine-stricken districts, were too great, while untold miseries such as suicide, starving, and drowning of children due to interference without proper provision, made the scheme impracticable. Let it not, however, be thought that I am against any measures of reform. But what I consider is this, that conditions in China being such as they are, it should be left to public opinion rather than law gradually to work a change. The home government meanwhile, I believe, is in full possession of all facts of the case.\n\nA word may be usefully inserted here on the term \"traffic\" which is used in this connection, on account of the fact of money being used in the transactions we are considering. But so is it employed in the case of Chinese weddings also, where presents from the bridegroom's family to that of the bride consist of money, so that if the term \"traffic\" is lawful in the one case, so is it also in the other.\n\nLives led by Servant-Girls. Coming back to the question of \"slavery,\" I will now say a few words on the sort of lives usually led by these servant-girls. Naturally, their conditions depend very much on the circumstances of the families which take them in. Many are taught to read and sew, while not a few do household work alone and look after the children—practically the same work as they would do in their own homes. If they are scolded or beaten, this is not more than is done to disobedient or lazy children, or than Europeans, as I have seen, do to their amahs, coolies, or boys. But it is not typical of the ordinary father, master, or mistress. It may be argued that coolies and amahs may leave their households while servant-girls cannot, but neither can children leave their homes, and it is a fact of common knowledge that in civilized nations, cases of ill-treatment occur far worse than any to which servant-girls are subjected.\n\nThe Marriage Customs. When girls become marriageable, they are married in the same way as all Chinese girls of poor families, often with a better dowry and better off than their parents would have found for them had they never been sold. Before marriage is arranged, the parents or guardians are informed and have the power, if they so desire, to take their girls back and return the money originally paid. Sometimes they are married by their own consent and that of their mistresses, taken as secondary wives. Mothers may refuse to marry at all, or may earn their own living as being servants or ladies' maids, in which cases they support themselves off and leave altogether with employment elsewhere.\n\nIn cities and towns, it may indeed be that they prefer to lead a life of evil fame to enjoy, as they deem, greater liberty and more luxurious lives than married life would give them, especially if they are taken as concubines by men in high and wealthy positions. But when they are legally married and have left to work elsewhere, they are still allowed to return to visit their former masters or mistresses on terms of intimacy with the other members of the family, and not infrequently they are treated as daughters by childless parents.\n\nNo Solution in Law or Religion. The solution, I repeat, of the difficulty does not rest in the law or with religion. Not a few Chinese who have embraced the Christian faith still keep servant-girls. Nor is Hongkong the only place where, under modified terms, similar and even more deplorable evils exist. I do not condemn ill-treatment of the young, nor do I welcome preventive measures; but I am of the opinion that the prohibition of buying and selling of children would result in far greater evils than those now complained of, unless at the same time means were found to support the millions of poor who struggle for existence in China.\n\n# **CONFIDENTIAL.**\n\n4 13 6 3 4 5/200  \nEnclosure 1.\n\nSir,\n\n20156  \n23 AP 21\n\n**GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG.** 10th March, 1921.\n\nI have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of Lord Milner's **Confidential** despatch of December 2nd, 1920, enclosing a copy of a letter with enclosure from Mrs. C. B. L. Haslewood regarding cases of \"child-slavery\" in Hongkong.\n\n2\\. The annexed minute by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs deals sufficiently with Mrs. Haslewood's covering letter. As regards the points specified by numbers in the enclosure to her letter:-\n\n| Point | Description |\n| --- | --- |\n| (1) | Apparently the reference is to a case brought up on the 16th July, 1920, (not the 16th of June, on which date no such case is recorded). The two girls aged 15 and 9 respectively had undoubtedly been ill-treated, having bruises and burns on their bodies, but there was no injury of a permanent character. The employer was fined £500; the girls were sent to the Po Leung Kuk on August 3rd. The elder girl was adopted on the 27th August and the younger on 8th September under bonds for £150. I should explain that in such cases of adoption from the Kuk, the bondsman, who is a person of standing and known to the authorities, undertakes to cause the woman who has adopted the girl to bring her to the office of the Secretary for Chinese Affairs when called upon to do so. Girls are brought to the office every three or six months according to circumstances. |\n| (2) | See the minute by the Secretary for Chinese Affairs already referred to. |\n\nThe Right Honourable  \nWINSTON CHURCHILL, M.P.,  \n&c.  \n&c.",

To try to inflict fines for spitting in public I would be useless for several reasons: firstly, the offenders cannot afford to pay \nfines; secondly, the native police are every bit as bad offenders in this respect, as the rest; thirdly, I am convinced that it is the expectoration on the floors of the rooms in which the people live that is the chief source of the bacilli, so that, even if expectorating in public out of doors were stopped--\"a consummation devoutly to be wished\" on other accounts than the risk of disseminating tubercular bacilli--there would be no deterrent to a man exercising the privilege in his own rooms, unless his wife objected, and this she would not do, seeing that she also freely avails herself of a like privilege. We are, therefore, reduced to the slower but more certain method--Education, and the question naturally follows: How and by whom? \n\nEuropean doctors would be of little if any use directly. They do not come into contact with the poor to any extent and they would not be listened to even if they could succeed in making themselves understood. The Chinese doctors would have a better chance, and, therefore, much may be hoped from the locally qualified practitioners who come more into contact with the people both at the hospital during their years of training, and also after they graduate and go into practice. \n\nBetter still would it be to attempt to instruct the people in their houses and this, I venture to suggest, could be accomplished in the following way. The Y.M.C.A. and the Y.W.C.A., to which many of the better educated classes belong, have courses of lectures from time to time on various subjects. Like all the laity they are interested in medical questions and there is no reason why popular (or, to use Huxley's preferable term, People's) lectures and demonstrations should not be given at these institutions, and such lectures on medical subjects never fail to draw. This would form a nucleus, and from among the members, the women more than the men, some would certainly be found to spread the glad tidings of the gospel of health, at first in their own homes among their servants, and later tactfully to promulgate the doctrines they had been taught. After a time a regular system of district visitors (in the medical sense) might be inaugurated; these would not only instruct the mothers in child welfare and the dangers of feeding their children in the way indicated earlier, but would instil into the adults, and, through them, the growing children health principles generally, the teachers of the Chinese attending British schools might also with advantage incorporate elementary hygienic principles as object lessons for their pupils. \n\nThen, and not too soon, for 'festina lente' is the motto for all social and health...",

        "content_text": "251\n\nJ\n\nMonsieur le M. FERREIRA (Portugal), rapporteur. Président, Mesdames, Messieurs, vous savez que l'abus de l'opium a produit de tout temps des effets nuisibles et que la consommation de cette drogue n'a cessé de s'étendre en provoquant des ravages toujours plus considérables. Les pays qui en souffraient n'ont pas tardé à comprendre qu'il fallait enrayer ce fléau dont les progrès risquaient d'entraîner des conséquences sociales de plus en plus graves. Des mesures limitatives plus ou moins sévères ont été prises.\n\nQuelques Etats avaient, jusqu'à la Conférence de La Haye, édicté des lois et des règlements impliquant des restrictions et des pénalités, mais il ne semble pas que ces mesures, qui n'avaient généralement qu'une portée intérieure, aient eu un résultat très efficace.\n\nEn effet, il ne faut pas oublier que le problème n'est pas seulement d'ordre humanitaire. Des intérêts immenses et souvent divergents sont engagés dans le trafic de l'opium; il serait puéril de négliger ce facteur: il faut, au contraire, en tenir compte, car c'est seulement en se plaçant sur le terrain de la réalité qu'on fera œuvre utile et solide.\n\nC'est pourquoi la question de l'opium est éminemment un problème international qui nécessite la collaboration de tous les intéressés. Pour faire cesser les ravages de cette drogue, que Balzac appelait « la loterie de la misère », il faut que chaque Etat consente sa part de sacrifice. La première fois que l'on s'occupa de régler internationalement la question du trafic de l'opium, ce fut à Shanghai, où, à l'instigation du Gouvernement américain, une conférence se réunit le 9 février 1909; elle fit un travail préparatoire et dans un mémorandum, adressé au ministre de la reine des Pays-Bas, à Washington, on lit : « que, pour arriver au but poursuivi, la coopération et la sympathie des pays producteurs étaient nécessaires. » On reconnaissait ainsi justement que, pour obtenir le résultat humanitaire auquel nous voulons parvenir, il ne fallait pas perdre de vue le côté économique et je dirai presque financier de la question.\n\nCelle-ci fut parfaitement posée par S. E. M. de Marus van Swinderen qui, en sa qualité de ministre des Affaires étrangères de la reine des Pays-Bas, ouvrit la Conférence internationale de l'opium à La Haye, le 1er décembre 1911. Il synthétisa, en une phrase pleine de finesse et d'élévation, l'œuvre à accomplir :\n\n« Quoi de plus noble, dit-il, que la tâche qui vous est échue, celle de ramener peu à peu le petit pavot somnifère à son rôle de médecine salubre et d'enrayer, d'un commun accord et avec des vues larges, les conséquences qu'entraînerait la prolongation des conditions actuelles ? »\n\nC'est dans cette voie que s'engagea la conférence : elle élargit même ses travaux, car, sur la demande de la Grande-Bretagne, elle s'occupa également de réglementer le trafic de la cocaïne, de la morphine et d'autres produits similaires. Ce n'est ni le moment ni le lieu d'étudier en détail l'œuvre de la conférence. Il nous suffira de dire que la convention qu'elle élabora comporta un ensemble de mesures restrictives qui marquent la première étape vers la suppression totale du trafic de l'opium non affecté à un but médicinal.\n\nCelle-ci devait entrer en vigueur le 31 décembre 1914, mais la guerre survint entre temps et tout fut remis en question jusqu'à la Conférence de Versailles, qui créa une nouvelle situation; en effet, par l'article 23 du Pacte, elle charge la Société des Nations des accords relatifs au trafic de l'opium et autres drogues nuisibles. D'accord avec le Gouvernement des Pays-Bas, la première Assemblée décida que la tâche confiée à ce dernier, quant à l'opium, incomberait désormais à la Société des Nations. Le 15 novembre de l'an dernier, elle vota une résolution invitant le Conseil à nommer une Commission consultative qui, trois mois avant l'ouverture de chaque session, présentera au Conseil un rapport sur tous les sujets relatifs à l'exécution des accords concernant le trafic de l'opium.\n\nCette Commission a été nommée et elle s'est réunie à Genève, du 2 au 5 mai, avec les représentants des pays intéressés, c'est-à-dire Pays-Bas, Grande-Bretagne, France, Inde, Japon, Siam et Portugal. Assistée de trois experts, cette Commission a élaboré un questionnaire qui a été adressé à tous les gouvernements, ayant pour objet de recueillir tous les renseignements utiles relatifs à l'application de la Convention de La Haye.\n\nLa Commission a invité les Etats à répondre dans le délai de trois mois pour les pays européens et de six mois pour ceux d'outre-mer. Le délai pour ces derniers, qui sont à proprement parler, les intéressés, n'est pas expiré actuellement; de nombreuses réponses ne sont pas encore parvenues; dans ces conditions et conformément au désir de la Commission, il faut attendre que toutes ces réponses soient arrivées afin de pouvoir examiner la situation dans son ensemble. La Commission se réunira de nouveau au début de l'an prochain et elle espère être à même d'élaborer un rapport pour la troisième session de l'Assemblée.\n\nLa Commission a également élaboré une série de recommandations que le Conseil a examiné à son tour, en prenant, le 28 juin, une résolution en plusieurs paragraphes.\n\nC'est avec ces éléments que nous venons de signaler, c'est-à-dire Convention de La Haye 1912, travaux de la Commission consultative et résolution du Conseil, que nous arrivons à la deuxième Assemblée; celle-ci a confié à votre cinquième Commission la question du trafic de l'opium.\n\nLe rapport que vous avez devant vous fera connaître les travaux de la cinquième Commission. Pour épargner votre temps, je me bornerai, si tel est votre avis, aux observations qui ont été faites à la cinquième Commission, au sujet des recommandations que vous avez dans ce même rapport.\n\nAu sujet de la deuxième recommandation, la Commission, après avoir entendu les déclarations du délégué de la Chine sur les mesures prises par son gouvernement relativement au trafic de l'opium, a été d'avis qu'on pourrait ajourner, conformément au paragraphe 6 de la résolution du Conseil, la recommandation No 5 de la Commission consultative.\n\nLes déclarations du délégué de la Chine sont les suivantes :\n\n« Entre le 25 juin et le 15 août dernier, le Gouvernement chinois a nommé sept Haut Commissaires spéciaux afin de faire des recherches sur les conditions exactes dans huit provinces et deux districts administratifs spéciaux, où une recrudescence de culture d'opium aurait été constatée. Ces commissaires se sont mis en route pour accomplir leur mission et quelques-uns ont déjà commencé leurs investigations. Je crois que le Gouvernement chinois sera disposé à communiquer à la Société des Nations les résultats de ses investigations dès qu'ils auront été portés à la connaissance du Gouvernement chinois. »\n\nJe crois, comme rapporteur, devoir faire remarquer à ce sujet les déclarations qui ont été faites à la Commission consultative des experts, qui rappellent les efforts merveilleux faits par la Chine entre 1907 et 1916 pour se débarrasser de l'opium et qui rendent hommage aux autorités chinoises. Ils ajoutent que la Chine était pour ainsi dire complètement débarrassée de la production de l'opium en 1917, de manière que nous pouvons avoir toute confiance dans les efforts de la Chine pour en finir avec le trafic de l'opium. Il serait bon de citer à ce sujet les paroles de M. Jordan. Vous les trouverez à la page 20 du document 77 M. 39.\n\nEn ce qui concerne la troisième recommandation, les modifications apportées par la Commission au paragraphe 7 de la résolution du Conseil ont été motivées par les conditions toutes spéciales qu'on rencontre dans divers pays, notamment dans l'Inde.\n\nOn a supprimé, dans la résolution du Conseil, le mot « strictement » et on a remplacé les mots « médicaux et scientifiques » par le mot « légitimes ».\n\nLa Commission a été d'accord que cette modification devait être faite à la suite des explications données par le délégué de l'Inde.\n\nEn effet, le délégué de l'Inde a fait observer à la Commission que le nombre des hôpitaux et des dispensaires est, en Inde, tout à fait disproportionné à la population, qui, sur une vaste étendue, est sans moyens médicaux. Le délégué de l'Inde a également fait observer que, pour combattre des maladies qui, dans certaines localités, sont endémiques, la population utilise habituellement cette drogue à petites doses comme remède préventif ou curatif. C'est cet usage de la drogue, qui ne saurait être qualifié de purement médical — c'est-à-dire ordonné par un médecin — que la Commission vise par le mot « légitime ».\n\nEn ce qui concerne la huitième recommandation, il convient de signaler que la cinquième Commission a été saisie de cette question sur la suggestion de M. Jean Lanessy, délégué français. Il a attiré l'attention de la Commission sur les abus liés à la vente et à la consommation de drogues de nature minérale ou chimique, non visées par la Convention de La Haye de 1912, et a souligné que ce fléau, qui ...\n\n- 2 -\n\nMr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen, you know that the abuse of opium has always produced harmful effects, and that the use of this drug has continued to spread with ever-increasing gravity. The countries which suffered from its use soon realised the necessity of putting an end to this Scourge, whose progress threatened to bring about the most disastrous social consequences. Restrictive measures of a more or less severe character have been taken.\n\nBefore the Hague Conference, certain States had promulgated laws and regulations, laying down restrictions and penalties, but it does not appear that these measures, which generally had only an internal effect, had very successful results.\n\nIt must not, indeed, be forgotten that the question is not merely of humanitarian order. Enormous interests, often of a divergent nature, are implicated in the Opium Traffic; it would be absurd to omit to take this factor into consideration. It must, on the contrary, be carefully considered, for useful practical work can only be done by coming to grips with reality.\n\nIt is for this reason that the Opium question is essentially an international problem which calls for the collaboration of all concerned. To put an end to the ravages of this drug, which Balzac called, \"The Lottery of Misery,\" each State must consent to take its part in the sacrifice. The first time that the regulation of the question of Opium Traffic by international means was considered was at Shanghai, where a Conference was held on February 9th, 1909, at the instigation of the American Government.\n\nThis Conference took preparatory measures, and declared, in a Memorandum addressed to the Dutch Minister at Washington: \"That in order to attain the desired object, the co-operation and sympathy of the producing countries were essential.\" It was thus rightly recognised that, in order to attain the humanitarian object for which we strive, the economic - I might almost say financial side of the question must not be lost to view.\n\nThe latter was excellently set forth by His Excellency M. de Marius van Swinderen, who, as Dutch Minister for Foreign Affairs, opened the International Opium Conference at the Hague, on December 1st, 1911. In a brilliant and idealistic speech, he summed up as follows the work to be accomplished:\n\n\"What could be more noble,\" he said, \"than the task assigned to you, that of gradually limiting the action of the soporific poppy to that of a healing medicine, and, in common agreement and with wide views, to abolish the consequences which will arise from a continuation of present conditions.\"\n\nIt is on these lines that the Conference undertook its work; it even widened the scope of its labours, for, on the request of Great Britain, it also undertook to regulate the traffic in cocaine, morphine, and other similar products. This is neither the place nor the time to study in detail the work of the Conference. Suffice it to say, that the Convention which the Conference will draw up will include a series of restricted measures, which will constitute the first step towards the total suppression of the traffic in opium used for non-medicinal purposes.\n\nThis Convention was to have come into force on December 31st, 1914, but, meanwhile, there came the war, and everything was postponed until the Conference of Versailles, which created a new situation; for, by Article 23 of the Covenant, the League of Nations was entrusted with the agreement to be arrived at with regard to the traffic in opium and other noxious drugs. In agreement with the Netherlands Government, the First Assembly decided that the duties which had been entrusted to that Government in respect of opium should fall henceforward upon the League of Nations. On December 15th of last year, the Assembly voted a Resolution asking the Council to appoint an Advisory Committee, which, three months before the beginning of each meeting should submit to the Council a Report on all subjects relative to the carrying out of the agreements concerning the Opium Traffic.\n\nThis Committee has been appointed; it met at Geneva from May 2nd to 5th, with the representatives of the countries concerned, namely: Netherlands, Great Britain, France, India, Japan, China, Siam, and Portugal. With the help of three experts, this Committee drew up a questionnaire, which was sent to all the Governments with a view to obtaining from them all useful information relative to the application of the Hague Convention.\n\nThe Committee asked the Governments of Europe to send in their replies within three months, and the overseas Governments within six months. The time limit for the reply of these latter countries, which are strictly speaking, the States concerned, has not yet expired, and many replies have not yet been received. Under these circumstances, and in accordance with the Committee's wish, these replies must be awaited before the situation as a whole can be considered. The Committee will meet again at the beginning of next year, and hopes to be able to draw up a Report for the third meeting of the Assembly.\n\nThe Committee also drew up a series of recommendations, which the Council in its turn considered, adopting on June 28th a Resolution in several paragraphs.\n\nBy the various steps of which we have just spoken - namely, the Hague Convention of 1912, the work of the Advisory Committee, and the Council Resolution - we come to the Second Assembly. The latter body had entrusted to your Fifth Committee the question of the Opium Traffic.\n\nThe Report that you have before you will acquaint you with the work of the Fifth Committee. To save time, I will confine myself, if you agree, to the remarks which were made in the Fifth Committee with regard to the recommendations which are contained in this same Report.\n\nWith regard to the second recommendation, the Committee, after hearing the statements of the Chinese Delegate as to the measures taken by his Government with regard to the Opium Traffic was of opinion that, in conformity with paragraph 5 of the Council's Resolution, Recommendation No. 5 of the Advisory Committee might be postponed.\n\nThe statements of the Chinese Delegate are as follows:\n\n\"Between June 25th and August 15th last the Chinese Government appointed seven High Commissioners specially instructed to investigate the precise conditions in eight provinces and in two special administrative districts, where a recrudescence of the production of opium had been noted. These Commissioners have set out to undertake their task, and some of them have already begun their investigations. I think that the Chinese Government will be prepared to communicate to the League of Nations the results of its investigations, as soon as these have been brought to the knowledge of the Chinese Government.\"\n\nAs Rapporteur, I think that I should note in this connection the statements which were made in the Advisory Committee by the Experts, which recall the wonderful efforts made by China between 1907 and 1916 to rid herself of opium, and which pay a tribute to the Chinese authorities. They add that China had, so to speak, completely rid herself of opium production in 1917, so that we can have every confidence in China's efforts to have done with the Opium Traffic. In this connection, it might be well to quote the words of M. Jordan. You will find them on page 20 of Document 77, M.39.\n\nAs regards the third recommendation, the alterations introduced by the Committee into paragraph 7 of the Council Resolution are explained by the quite special conditions which are met with in certain countries, notably in India.\n\nThe word \"strictly \" has been deleted in the Council Resolution, and the words \" medicinal and scientific \" have been changed to the word \"legitimate.\"\n\nThe Committee agreed that this alteration should be made, in view of the explanations given by the Indian Delegate.\n\nFor the Indian Delegate pointed out to the Committee that the number of hospitals and well-equipped dispensaries is, in India, wholly disproportionate to the population, which, over a vast area, is without medical facilities. The Indian Delegate also pointed out that, in order to combat diseases which in certain localities are endemic, the population habitually uses this drug in small doses as a preventive or curative remedy. It is this type of employment of the drug, which could not be called purely medical - that is to say, ordered by a doctor - which the Committee refers to by the word \"legitimate.\"\n\nWith regard to the eighth recommendation, it should be pointed out that the Fifth Committee had this matter referred to it on the suggestion of M. Jean Lanessy, French Delegate. He directed the attention of the Committee to the abuses in connection with the sale and consumption of drugs of a mineral or chemical nature, not dealt with by the Hague Convention of 1912, and pointed out that this scourge, which ...\n\n- 3 -\n\nwww",

        "content_text": "March 25th, 1922]\n\nWhile recognising the justification for the order to shoot, we can all regret that the occasion made it necessary. That no one regrets more keenly than Mr. KING the sufferings caused by the necessities of the occasion we can well believe, but that he acted with the greatest forbearance and a full sense of his responsibility was made abundantly clear. Moreover, those who have closely followed the evidence must fully share the conviction of the Jury that at the time the shooting took place a stage had been reached when any further concession to the will of the crowd would have only resulted later in bloodshed on a far heavier scale if the law was to be eventually upheld. It is clear that the crowd set out with the deliberate intention of breaking the law; the consequences of their illegal action must therefore be accepted.\n\nGovernment undertook to consider the giving of compensation in the case of persons who had been killed or injured it went beyond any legal obligation. Now that the inquiry has terminated, the Government will, of course, fulfil the promise it made, but we hope that, instead of the word \"compensation,\" the term \"compassionate allowance\" will be used to describe any gifts that are made to the sufferers, for that term more correctly expresses the character of the gift.\n\nOne word may be added in reference to the seventh paragraph of the Jury's rider in which they refer to the extremely abnormal conditions that prevailed in the Colony at the time of the incident which, it is very appositely remarked, was closely connected with the criminal intimidation which brought about the strike. When the Jury say that they trust the Government will take such immediate steps as are necessary to prevent any repetition of such chaos, we regard this as a subtle way of expressing the opinion that the Government had failed in this respect in the instance under consideration. The same inference, we suppose, is to be drawn from the expression of a hope \"that the Chinese residents, for their part, will do all that lies in their power to assist the Government to this end with suggestions and advice.\" Many European residents have been wondering whether the Chinese residents—the men who have an important stake in the Colony—gave to the Government on this recent occasion all the advice and help that they might and should have done in their own interests as well as in the interest of the general community.\n\nWe may be quite sure that the Government have learnt many lessons from the recent strike, by which they may be expected to profit in the event of a recurrence of criminal intimidation in the Colony on such a scale; but it is to be hoped that the true lessons of the strike have been learnt by the Chinese, and that we may never again have to record any similar organised effort in the Colony to defy the authority of the Government.\n\nCHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT\n\nVICTORY OF THE ANTI-MUI-TSAI AGITATION.\n\n(Daily Press, March 23rd, 1922.)\n\nIt has been at last decided to abolish the mui-tsai system in Hongkong. We have never doubted that this would be the outcome of the agitation maintained in growing strength against it during the past five years. Mr. CHURCHILL, as Secretary of State for the Colonies, has made the announcement in the House of Commons, and the cable tells us it was received with \"cheers.\" These cheers testify to the general interest which has been aroused in a system which violates the British law against slavery, and has been allowed to endure in the Colony from the beginning of its history and the local Government has repeatedly defended the system as a benevolent institution.\n\nWhen the Government undertook to consider the giving of compensation... ...the voice of protest against the system has been raised locally from time to time, and the notable protest of Sir JOHN SMALE, when he was Chief Justice here, some fifty years ago, was mentioned by Mr. CHURCHILL when replying to a question in Parliament on the subject a month or two ago; but never before has a persistent agitation been maintained at home on the subject such as we have had in the last five years.\n\nAs many of our readers will recollect, the starting point of the effort which has culminated so successfully, was a case in the Supreme Court in 1917, when Mr. C. G. ALABASTER was defending a prisoner charged with having unlawfully, by fraud, enticed away two little servant girls from the custody of their mistresses. Mr. ALABASTER argued that the indictment could not stand because the lawfulness of the custody was an essential ingredient of the offence and it had been shown by the evidence that these children had been living in a state of slavery which could not be recognised in a British Colony.\n\nWe discussed in a leading article at the time the point taken by Mr. ALABASTER, and showed that the precedents in other places under the British flag supported his contention. The Chief Justice, it may be mentioned, had been spared the necessity of giving a decision on the point raised by Mr. ALABASTER, as the case against his client had failed on another issue.\n\nLieut.-Colonel JOHN WARD, M.P., the well-known Labour leader, happened to be in the Colony at the time, in command of a regiment of the garrison. He became greatly interested in this flag, and from that moment inaugurated at home an active campaign against the mui-tsai system in British territory.\n\nThere came to the Colony shortly afterwards a Naval Officer and his wife, Commander and Mrs. HASELWOOD—who also became deeply interested in the question, Mrs. HASELWOOD especially. She personally investigated the system, wrote vigorously on the subject to the local papers, and by cable and letter brought the matter to the notice of influential persons at home. Her activities seem to have so exasperated the local Government that it resorted to the most autocratic and reprehensible means of suppressing them. Because Commander HASELWOOD declined to help in this direction he was transferred from the station. He retired from the Service in consequence, on half pay, and has since devoted a good deal of time in assisting his wife to disseminate a knowledge of the mui-tsai system at home.\n\nAccording to the Census there are 8,653 mui-tsai in the Colony. The effect of the Secretary of State's decision is not necessarily to cast all these girls from their present homes, but simply to release them from conditions of service which come within the meaning of the term slavery. The great majority of them will doubtless remain as hired servants. For those who are not so retained some temporary provision will, we suppose, be made by the Government or charitable organisations.\n\nThe Census Officer in his Report on the Census taken last April remarked that the returns showed that very few young girls are employed in the Colony as hired domestic servants. The girl hired by the year, who has been suggested as a substitute for the mui-tsai, does not appear, he said, to be popular, but there are on the other hand a large number of boys between the ages of 12 and 14 employed in domestic work in Chinese households, and there were 122 young girls described as Tuk Mui, a term which in most cases denotes the same status. By a stroke of the pen the mui-tsai status will cease to be recognised, so that all the girls will acquire the status—the designation, at least—of hired domestic servants.\n\nThe mui-tsai system will not be effectually abolished by the mere issue of a proclamation. Some machinery for enforcing the order will be needed, and we await with interest the details of the scheme which is to give effect to this decision.\n\nMeanwhile it is of interest to mention the recent decision of the Chinese Government in Canton to abolish the system, and that a Judicial Commission is at present engaged in drafting regulations which are to apply when abolition is formally decreed.\n\nTHE PEARL OF THE PACIFIC.\n\nThe glories of the waltz should be quickened afresh by \"The Pearl of the Pacific,\" composed by Maud Fitz-Stubbs, better known locally as Mrs. Harry Woods. Already a popular success in Australia, following on the \"Heather\" and \"Orlando\" waltzes, by the same composer, there is every reason to believe the \"Pearl\" will soon become a favourite in dancing circles in the Colony, and beyond. The tune is not flamboyant but is simple and sweet and ideal for its purpose. The second movement, in particular, being especially tuneful.\n\nPiano-players will find this an acquisition to their dance music, and a piece that presents no difficulties to the average player. Copies can be obtained from local music-sellers.\n\nThe will of the Right Hon. Lord Mount Stephen, formerly a draper's apprentice in Aberdeen and in St. Paul's Churchyard, has been proved at £1,414,319. Estate and legacy duties amount to over £500,000. The residue on the property, estimated at £750,000, is left to the King Edward Hospital Fund.\n\nPage 301",

Prince Torihito Higashi Fushimi, who is well-known in Great Britain, having been there on two official visits (once when he represented the Imperial Japanese Court at the Coronation, and again when he was sent on a special mission to present the sword of a Marshal in the Japanese army to His Majesty the King).\n\nH.E. Count Sutemi Chinda, a former Ambassador in London, and more lately known to the British people as a member of the suite of H.I.H. the Prince Regent. Count Chinda is now one of the chief advisers to the Regent, having been appointed to this post last November.\n\nViscount Yoshitami Matsudaira, a Master of Ceremonies, who has spent many years in London, and who accompanied Prince Higashi Fushimi in 1918.\n\nMarquis Tsuneyasu Nakamikado, a Master of Ceremonies, who has only recently returned from a tour through Europe and America.\n\nMajor-General Toyohiko Yoshida, who was with Prince Higashi Fushimi at the time of the Coronation, and is now attached to the Imperial Household.\n\nRear-Admiral Katsunoshin Yamanashi, who was closely associated with the British Navy during the war.\n\nMr. Nobumichi Sakenobu, of the Foreign Office, who served in London as Councilor.\n\nMr. Setsuzo Sawada, also of Foreign Office.\n\nLieutenant-Col.

Secretary, has received from the Societies and Institutions in Great Britain to whom donations were forwarded out of the proceeds of the last M.C.L. Bazaar.\n\nThese include the following:-\n\nOrphan Homes of Scotland, Bridge of Weir.\n\nThe Royal Soldiers' Daughters' Home, Hampstead.\n\nCaptain Fryatt Memorial Fund, Liverpool.\n\nLondon Hospital, Whitechapel.\n\nOfficers' Families Fund.\n\nTrafalgar Orphan Fund.\n\nMost of these donations were of £166 13s. 4d. each.\n\nPage 27\n\n300\n\nLeague, no less than £1,254 5s. 9d., having been subscribed for the Children's section of the Capt. Fryatt Fund.\n\nBRIGHTENING KOWLOON.\n\nFREE MIDNIGHT \"CHAMBER\" CONCERT.\n\nA correspondent, who supplies his own headings, as above, writes on March 19th:\n\nWe shall doubtless hear at the annual meeting of the Kowloon Residents' Association, next Wednesday, whether the concert, to which residents in Humphreys' Buildings and houses in the vicinity were entertained on Saturday night, was part of a K.R.A. scheme for brightening Kowloon.\n\nThe affair might fittingly be described as a chamber concert seeing that most of the members of the audience had retired to their bed chambers before the concert began.\n\nThe second part of the programme, embarked upon just after midnight, consisted of 33 concerted numbers in which a glee party joined in popular choruses; the piano, apparently, being operated by the feet instead of in the usual manner.\n\n\"God Save the King\" was sung twenty minutes to one, though the prayer seemed unnecessary in view of the fact, just made public, that Royalty will not be visiting Kowloon.\n\nThe audience received Carey's ode with loyal and fervent cheers, but felt inclined to substitute their own names for \"the King\" in the first and last line, when a gramophone and the pedestrian pianist continued the concert.\n\nThe glee party tried, with all the power of their lungs, till after 1 a.m., to drown the thunderous strains of the piano but without success.\n\nThe final item was \"We won't go home till morning\" which, at that hour, was to state the obvious.\n\nThe brute creation, now thoroughly roused to emulation, took up the theme from every kennel and poultry yard in the vicinity.\n\nRevellers from the ex-service men's dinner then began to find their way homewards and, altogether, it seemed that a \"Kowloon Saturday night\" called for a poet to immortalise it in deathless verse.\n\nKIAOCHOU'S COST TO CHINA.\n\nA JAPANESE ESTIMATE.\n\nIn an article dealing with the return of Kiaochou to China the Manchuria Daily News says:\n\nIt will be of interest to learn what Japan has laid out in Shantung.\n\nGermany is said to have invested 59,000,000 marks or about Y.28,000,000 in Shantung. Of this amount, between Y.5,000,000 and Y.6,000,000 was laid out in mining enterprises, leaving Y.23,000,000 net for the construction of the Shantung Railway.\n\nWhen Japan took possession of the railway, the locomotives numbered only 40, which number has been raised to 102, whilst the passenger cars have been just doubled—to 160.\n\nthe workshops, the laying of sidings, etc., Goods cars, too, have been increased in number.\n\nAdding to this the extension of the total investments will come to more than double the Y.28,000,000.\n\nBesides, the water-works, electricity works, slaughter houses, etc., have cost the Japanese between Y.50,000,000 and Y.60,000,000.\n\nFurthermore, the salt fields comprise about 72,000,000 tsubo, which have already absorbed some Y.30,000,000.\n\nThe salt industry is a private business, and the money invested therein has been borrowed from the banks.\n\nOn April 27th, the Prince will visit Kyoto, paying his respects to the Imperial Mausoleum at Momoya.\n\nOn April 28th, he will go boating on Lake Biwa, making a stay in Kyoto until May 2nd.\n\nOn May 3rd and 4th he will visit Nara, and on May 5th will attend the reception to be given by the City of Osaka as well as the ball by foreigners resident in Kobe where His Royal Highness stays overnight.\n\nOn May 6th he will journey to Takamatsu City, Shikoku, to attend the dinner-party and reception by Count Matsudaira.\n\nOn May 7th, he will see the sights of Itsukushima Island, one of the Three Great Sights in Japan and on May 8th, he will visit the Naval College at Yedajima and the Arsenal at Kure, when he will travel down to Kagoshima, at the south end of Kyushu, where His Royal Highness is to attend the Imperial dinner party and reception by Prince Shimidzu on May 9th, after which His Royal Highness sails for home.—Eastern News Agency.\n\nChina will probably redeem the Shantung Railway, etc., in treasury bills amounting to about Y.100,000,000.\n\nPage 28",

        "content_text": "September 3rd, 1921.]\n\nGovernment is satisfied that it is a bona-fide enterprise. \"If it proves successful it will relieve Chinese and foreign shipping in South China from the serious handicap imposed by dependence on imported coal.\" What further impressed the Under Secretary of State is the fact that the \"agreement has been negotiated with the provincial authorities strictly in accordance with the Chinese Government's rule that the terms must be settled with the provincial authorities before ratification by the Central Government.\" There is opposition of some sort to practically every agreement made in China, said Mr. HARMSWORTH, but \"in this case there had not been any marked opposition other than that instigated for political purposes.\"\n\nThe Canton authorities will not admit, of course, that their opposition is instigated entirely for political purposes, but, all the same, they are making use of the incident to impress upon the British Foreign Office a clearer realisation of the present chaotic state of government in China.\n\nSome such development as the CASSEL Syndicate contemplate would clearly give an enormous fillip to industrial and trade enterprise in South China, and we trust it may still be possible to speedily reconcile the aims of the Syndicate with those of the Government at Canton. We hold no brief for the Syndicate but we think it is a thousand pities that the progress and development of the province on an important scale should be thwarted and arrested as it is by political strife.\n\nWEDDING IN KOWLOON.\n\nFORBES-SUMMERS,\n\nCHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT\n\nRANDOM REFLECTIONS.\n\nThe manifold sins and wickednesses of the Press are a perennial topic with the clergy and ministers of all denominations. The reason is probably to be found in the fact that the Press is an institution which, conscious of its power, usually treats these attacks with the easy indulgence of the navvy, who, when asked why he allowed his little wife to scold him perpetually without protest, replied: \"Well, it pleases her and it doesn't hurt me.\"\n\nAs a rule, too, the indictment is couched in such general terms that those newspapers—and they constitute the vast majority—which know themselves to be above reproach do not deem it worth while to offer any defence, while the others have no defence to offer.\n\nTo judge by its contents, the British Press of Hongkong would appear to be in the first category. The community would appear to be paragons of propriety, untouched by the breath of scandal and dividing their time judiciously between commercial transactions, social gatherings, religious and philanthropic effort, and out-door sports. We have, in fact, nearly realised Sir Edwin Arnold's ideal that a newspaper should be like a sun-dial and record only the bright hours of existence.\n\nThe Rev. J. Kirk Maconachie, however, thinks otherwise. Glancing over a number of copies of our local journals, while on his way out to the Colony, he says, he gained the impression that the main pre-occupation of the place must be Police-court cases. That was before the war. Since then the contents have been rather more diversified, but, even so, he hopes that neither our mentality nor our morality will be judged a century hence by the seeming proportion in which our attention is given to sport, crime, scandal, business, and the public good.\n\nIf our grandchildren take our Press as a whole they will form a pretty just conception of us and our tastes, for the Press is a mirror as well as a mouthpiece, and if you don't like your reflection in it that is largely your own fault.\n\nThe wedding was solemnised, on September 1st, at the Rosary Church, Kowloon, of Mr. R. F. Forbes (of Messrs. Mustard & Co.) and Miss Eva Margaret Summers, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Summers (of the Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf and Godown Co.).\n\nThe ceremony was performed by the Rev. Father Spada, Bishop Pozzoni also being present.\n\nThe bride, who was given away by her father, wore a gown of ivory charmeuse with an overskirt of embroidered net and a long embroidered train, carried by the bride's little niece, Evelyn Summers. The bride's veil of old lace, lent by one of her friends, was caught up with orange blossom. Her shower bouquet was of white cadema d'amour tube roses and eucharist lilies.\n\nThe bridesmaid was Miss Ethel Mary Packham, who wore a dress of white net over pink crepe de Chine and a hat of pink georgette. She carried a bouquet of pink cadema d'amour.\n\nThe duties of best man were discharged by Mr. J. H. Brister (of Messrs. Reiss & Co.).\n\nAfter the ceremony a reception was held at the residence of the bride's parents. Later, the newly-wedded couple left for their honeymoon, the bride's going-away costume being of brown floral net over brown crepe de Chine and net, with brown lace hat to match.\n\nEnthusiastic crowds greeted the Prince of Wales on his arrival in Liverpool, last month. At the Cotton Exchange, Col. J. J. Shute, the president, in welcoming his Royal Highness, described him as \"the greatest democrat of us all.”\n\nPersonally I am more concerned about the world we live in than about the impression which will be formed of us a hundred years from now. Some of us are so comfortably placed that but for our newspapers we should know nothing of the temptations, trials, and tribulations of our less fortunate fellowmen. The publication of facts unpleasant in themselves enables those who live in a world apart from the toiling masses to realise the need that exists for the efforts of Ministers of the Gospel and philanthropists, and often constitutes a greater terror to the evil-doer in high places than the punishment inflicted by the law. As the Rev. A. N. Rowland remarked at Shanghai last month, \"so long as we have our newspaper we shall never cease to be religious, for by the aid of its mirror our sins are kept ever before us.\"\n\nMr. Maconachie, on the other hand, fears that the effect on the vast majority of the \"distorted news\" they read is bound to be in the direction of vitiating the mind and degrading the appetite. The minds that are so easily affected must, I fear, be already defiled and debilitated. I have never understood, for example, that our Judges and Magistrates were an unusually depraved class. So far as the \"lower orders\" are concerned, it may be doubted if they read in the newspaper anything worse than the dramas they are compelled to see enacted before their eyes. The moral of even the worst criminal or divorce case is that \"the way of the transgressor is hard.\"\n\nIf the masses, like most of us, are attracted by \"the human interest\" there are invariably other less \"objectionable\" items provided for their edification and acceptance—the powder concealed in the jam, as it were. The Einstein Theory, even though garnished with bright and vivacious missionary news, would \"leave them cold,\" I fear, at present, just as religion did till the Salvation Army popularised it with red jerseys, tambourines, and hymns set to music-hall tunes to the horror of the staid and respectable.\n\nWhen Mr. Maconachie laments the space which the newspaper editors devote to the outré, the abnormal, and the distorted, he should derive comfort from the reflection that there are some things, such as the death of Queen Anne, which are taken for granted, and quite properly so. Imagine the consternation that would be caused if this journal appeared one morning with such announcements as the following:\n\nYesterday passed without an earthquake.\n\nMessrs. Ellis, Dee and Co are, our advices lead us to believe, still solvent.\n\nThe s.s. Typhoon, which left London last week with a full passenger list for Hongkong, is, we rejoice to learn, still afloat.\n\nMr. ... Our esteemed fellow-townsman, Beer, was perfectly sober last night.\n\nThe Municipal Engineer did a good honest day's work yesterday.\n\nThe manager of the Cash Bank has not disappeared and is still at large.\n\nMr. Blank, our readers will be glad to know, was seen yesterday spending a portion of his hard-earned wages in buying boots for the baby, while his wife was heard singing cheerfully at the wash-tub.\n\nThe only difficulty about this sort of \"news\" lies in the possibility of somebody discovering an innuendo in it, and of anyone who should happen, by an oversight, to be omitted from the review, regarding the omission as an oblique reflection on him. The Law of Libel robs the Press of much potential brightness.\n\nIn England it is the invariable practice to hold an inquest upon the body of every person who comes to a violent end or dies suddenly without medical attention. In Hongkong there is no such rule, the matter being left entirely to the discretion of the coroners, who are also the magistrates. From most points of view the Home practice seems to be the better of the two, for, though the immediate cause of death may be perfectly obvious, there are often surrounding circumstances that call for investigation, and blame can be apportioned or sinister rumours silenced.\n\nBy way of illustration let me recall the fatal accident which befell a European boy a week or two back when returning with his mother by the launch run, I believe, under the aegis of the Government to and from Stonecutter's for the convenience of bathers. The published reports stated that the little fellow overbalanced and fell into the water, and that no trace of him could be found till next day, though the launch was stopped and several people dived in to rescue him. Rumours now in circulation are in direct conflict with this statement. What degree of credence is to be attached to them I do not know, owing to the absence of any sworn testimony, but it seems pertinent to ask, at least, how the boy ...\n\n217",

E. Lindsell at the Police Court today. The defendant was arrested at the Star Ferry Wharf at Kowloon yesterday, and on the way to the Water Police Station is said to have at first offered a bribe of $15 and then to have added a similar sum, with the promise of a further sum as a condition for his release. The Indian constable, Alla Bux, took both sums but did not refrain from marching the prisoner to the Station, where a charge of being in possession of $25 worth of opium was preferred against him.\n\nP.C. Alla Bux said that he saw the prisoner with the parcel containing the drug tucked under his arm, and his movements suggested to him that here was a case worth examining into. On being interrogated, the prisoner said that he had something good to eat. The \"something good\" was shown to be two tals of opium when the parcel was opened. To avoid discovery, the prisoner is said to have attempted to divert the attention of the constable by pointing to another man who, he said, also possessed \"something good to eat.\"\n\nMr. Lindsell was of the view that the charge of bribery was one to be committed for trial and he ordered an adjournment for the evidence of the Sergeant Interpreter of the Water Police Station who took down the prisoner's statements when charged.\n\nDEATH OF MR. A.A. DOS REMEDIOS.\n\nOne of the oldest and most respected members of the Portuguese community passed away early this morning, in the person of Mr. Adalino A. dos Remedios. The deceased, who was 74 years of age, had been for no fewer than 41 years in the employ of Messrs. Jardine, Matheson and Co., Ltd. and was very highly esteemed and respected by all his fellow employees. Only three days ago he attended the office as usual, but was obviously unwell, suffering from a chill. He went home and later developed influenza which led to pneumonia. He passed peacefully away this morning, at his home in Caine Road.\n\nThroughout his long association with Messrs. Jardine, Matheson and Co., the deceased had been a valued servant. For many years he was in charge of the Shipping Office, but for the past three years he served in the Indo-China Book Office. Of a quiet and retiring disposition, the late Mr. Remedios, who possessed a particular charm of manner, will be mourned by all with whom he came into contact.\n\nHe leaves a widow and two children to mourn their loss. His son is Mr. J. S. Remedios, of the Post Office, his daughter being Mrs. J. F. Tavares. The funeral takes place to-morrow afternoon, at 6 o'clock.\n\nSHANGHAI'S MIXED COURT.\n\nWith reference to the Mixed Court at Shanghai, the Sinwanpao contains the following report:-\n\nMembers of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs met on Tuesday to discuss the many questions connected with the return to China of the Mixed Court. Two suggestions were offered: (1) To reform the Court; (2) To return it to the Chinese for sole administration. It was decided that members of the Ministry should confer on the matter with the British, American and French Ministries.\n\nCANADIAN POTATOES\n\nFine, Choice, Mealy.\n\nPRICES RIGHT.\n\nTHE DAIRY FARM, ICE & COLD STORAGE CO., LTD.\n\nKOWLOON\n\nTHEATRE\n\nThe only entirely European Cinema in the Far East\n\nJ.

An excellent game resulted in a win for St. Joseph's by 3 goals to 2. In the return match on Thursday afternoon, the Drummers won by the only goal in the match.\n\nThe King's second team played South China \"B\" team in a friendly match last Saturday afternoon on Causeway Bay ground. The King's led by 1 goal to nil at half-time and an excellent goal from their centre forward put them further ahead soon after the change of ends. South China were seen to better advantage after this and managed to level up matters towards the end of the game. Result 2-2.\n\nIn the Company League, the Machine Gun Platoon sustained their first defeat in the competition when they were defeated by \"B\" Coy, the score being 1-0. They still, however, have a good lead in the League table and should win the championship.\n\nOn Wednesday afternoon, \"1\" Coy defeated the Band and Drums 2-1.\n\nA match between the Regimental Team and the Hongkong Police has been arranged for Saturday afternoon, on Murray Parade Ground.

A report from Wuchow states that troops commanded by Lo To and Chang Hoi-yue are moving down to Chunchow and that traffic between Wuchow and other cities in Kwangsi is unsafe.\n\nChan Cheong-po has been ordered by General Chan King-ming to take his force to the West River, as far as Dosing, to maintain order.\n\nThe Provincial Treasurer has decided to form a Finance committee for the improvement of the paper currency. He has invited the leading merchants and gentry to become members, and hopes to have publicly announced the exact number of notes in circulation.\n\nIt is reported that the Gunboat, Control and the Water Police Departments are to be abolished and a new body created to be known as the Sea and River Defence Headquarters, of which Chan Wing-son will be the chief.\n\nRAILWAY OFFICER'S \"FIRST DUTY.\"\n\nTo Attend Court.\n\nIn a case of larceny of two lengths of chain from the Railway Station at Kowloon, it was stated by Inspector C. Aris that Mr. G. Walker, the Traffic Superintendent, who prosecuted in the case, was unable to appear in Court on account of pressure of work. However, if his presence were urgently wanted, he would turn up.\n\nMr. E. W. Hamilton (to Inspector Aris)- Give my compliments to Mr. Walker, and tell him that if he does not appear I will discharge the man. It is his first duty to attend the Court.\n\nThe case was adjourned until to-morrow morning for the attendance of Mr. Walker.\n\nACCIDENT TO CHIEF JUSTICE.\n\nFalls and Breaks Arm in Typhoon.\n\nThe Chief Justice (Sir Wm. Rees-Davies) met with a nasty accident during the typhoon on Wednesday night. He and Mr. H. A. Nesbit went up in the Peak Tram. They were walking together with arms linked, in Cham-bers Road. The wind was very strong. One gust was so sudden that it took the Chief Justice off his feet. He fell on his right side and in so doing broke his right arm.\n\nIt was Sir William's intention to go to Japan to-morrow, but owing to the accident he will probably not be able to make the trip.\n\nEntertain your friends with a VIC TROJA\n\nAsk about our easy payment system.\n\nMOUTRIES:- Exclusive Distributors.\n\nTUESDAY ONLY\n\nCAROLYN THE CORNER\n\nSKIM MILK\n\nWHAT IS IT?\n\nWEDNESDAY & THURSDAY\n\nMARRIED LIFE\n\nMore Big Pictures to follow!\n\nALERT\n\nIt is milk from which most of the fat (cream) has been removed.

It contains all the nourishing elements - the casein, etc., which ordinary milk contains (less the fats only), and is far more easily digested than whole milk because it is not rich in fats.

        "content_text": "3.. \n\nOld bokses \n\nnot affected. \n\nHousing of employees. \n\nReservations. \n\nOpinions of Commission- \n\ners on Re servations. \n\nLessons for \n\nBeservations. \n\n18 \n\n106. The proposal in paragraph 105, if adopted, would in no way delay the demolition and reconstruction of houses which are so old or dilapidated as to require reconstruction. \n\n107. The housing of employees, already dealt with under Branch I, paragraph 27, will also tend to diminish rents, not merely by providing more houses but also by diminishing the number of people who are at present obliged to compete for houses to live in. \n\n108. There is now only one aspect of the problem left to be dealt with by us. It is the question of how best to protect the various classes of the community from being, as they have been in the past, forced out of certain parts of the Colony, in which they have for years been residing, by economic pressure from outside. \n\n109. It is the opinion of the Chairman and Mr. Bailey that the only means of attaining the desired result is the creation of reservations for all sections of the community; and the views and recommendations contained in the following paragraphs relative to the subject are their views and recommendations. Mr. Kotewall, recognising that the question is not one of racial discrimination, and that, like the British residents, the Chinese and Portuguese permanent residents of the middle and working classes have suffered severely from the economic pressure caused by periodic influxes from the neighbouring Provinces, agrees to the principle of Reservations for British residents and for those Chinese permanent residents and residents of other races, who desire such Reservations. \n\nMr. Kotewall, however, considers that the area comprising the Kowloon foothills together with the hills behind as marked green in Enclosure 7, which is recommended in para. 121 for a European reservation, is far too large for the purpose. In para 118 the Government is already asked to reserve for the same purpose \"the whole of the foothills surrounding and forming part of King's Park on the West, North and East side, and also the hilly area immediately adjoining such foothills;\" and it is believed that fully 100 houses, with garden space around them, could be erected on this amphitheatre. Even if the eastern side of the area were required for Military Officers' quarters (vide para. 120), the remaining portion thereof would still seem to be sufficient to accommodate nearly all the British residents who have recently been or will soon be dislodged from their houses. Those who cannot be accommodated in this area could then go to the Kowloon foothills. But the area of the latter which is recommended to be reserved for the purpose is, to Mr. Kotewall's mind, unnecessarily large—larger, it appears from the map, than the whole of the developed portion of the Kowloon Peninsula which has taken about 80 years to reach its present size and prosperity. The total British population of the Colony, according to the Census taken in April, 1921, is about 8,000, the majority of whom are already fairly well housed in different parts of the Colony; and judging by the rate at which that population has grown during the last two decades, it seems unlikely that in the next two decades or so it would increase greatly out of proportion to the past rate, or to such a number as would actually need the enormous area proposed to be reserved for them. Apart from other considerations, it is economically unsound to detach a vast area of good building land from a locality which is rapidly developing, and to set it aside in order to meet the needs of a section of the community who requires Mr. Kotewall only a very small portion of it for a long time to come. \n\nis therefore of the opinion that only such an area in that locality as will adequately meet the present needs of the British residents, should be reserved for them, with a reasonable margin of land allowed for recreation grounds and for future expansion. \n\n110. The question of the setting aside of reservations for different sections of the community has received the most anxious consideration of the Commissioners; and they are of opinion, after carefully studying the very special circumstances prevailing in this Colony, including its proximity to the teeming populations of the adjacent disturbed provinces, who in times of disorder in China flock down to Hongkong in tens of thousands, that it is the bounden duty of the Government to make reservations, by means of demarcations of areas and special conditions of sale, in such areas for (a) British residents, and (b) permanent residents of other races respectively. (See also paragraphs 123 and 124). \n\n111. As regards the British residents in the Kowloon Peninsula, the need for measures being urgently taken by the Government is manifest. The Southern portion of the Peninsula, which up to about 10 years ago was happily free from the attentions of the land speculator, has lately been passing through a severe land boom which, unfortunately for the general body of tenants, who in the long run are the sufferers, still continues. The result of this boom has been that the properties in what is the centre of the district mainly inhabited by Europeans, have in the course of the last two years soared from about 2 dollars to over 7 dollars a square foot on sale prices; and at Yaumati to an even greater height. \n\n112. This boom price of land in Kowloon forms a sharp contrast to the Hill Districts on the Island of Hongkong where land is being put up to auction by the Government at 12 cents a square foot, and where it is the custom for the applicant for the land not to be bid against, a custom which we recommend the Government to convert into a fixed and immutable fact by selling land in future in the Hill District to the first applicant without any auction whatever, because he has in most cases been to some trouble and expense in selecting the site). \n\n113. The recent huge sale prices of land at Tsimshatsui where British residents have been accustomed to live for years past, and at Yaumati where Chinese residents of the middle and working classes make their homes, must be regarded as a positive disaster to the tenants; and this situation calls for immediate and drastic action on the part of the Government, in order to protect permanent residents who, surely, have the right in a British Colony to expect decent housing accommodation at a rent which bears some reasonable proportion to their incomes, and to be protected from the economic and other consequences caused by the influx into the Colony of tens of thousands of Chinese from the mainland. \n\n114. The question of the necessity of making European reservations has been pressed upon the Government by leading articles in all the four British newspapers in this Colony, and also in the speech of the Vice-Chairman at the last Annual General Meeting of the Kowloon Residents' Association (see Enclosure 6 containing printed extracts from those articles and that speech); and it has been shown that the question is not a racial question. It is primarily an economic question, but it is also one involving the health and reasonable comfort of Europeans living in a climate which is hot and trying in the summer. \n\n115. European Reservations are also advocated in letters (38), (40) and (42) in Enclosure 1. \n\nA side argument in favour of European Reservations is that, in times of strike or other internal commotions, an aggregation of British residents in one district renders it easier for them to take common action for the defence of the whole community against disorders. \n\n116. We feel that such reservations are more especially necessary in Kowloon on economic grounds, having regard to the fact that the British residents in the Peninsula are, generally speaking, less wealthy and consequently less able to pay a high rent than those who live in the Hill District. \n\n117. The position of affairs as regards housing accommodation for British residents at Kowloon is one of great gravity, because wealthy Chinese have bought up, during the last few months, at high prices, several rows of buildings, situate in the District between Nathan Road on the West and Chatham \n\nPage 368\n\n...\n\n...\n\n...",

Stubbs and the Press of the Colony were one-sided.\n\nHistory, if the chronicler is faithful, will reveal that for the local Press Sir Reginald expressed at a certain valedictory gathering the utmost contempt. Literally he bit the hand that fed him. Not only did he refrain from uttering one solitary acknowledgment of the help given to him as Governor by the Press, but, with malice aforethought, he went out of his way to belittle it, and demean it.\n\nAs murder will out, so will sayings of Cinciis in high places.\n\nDuring the regime of Sir Reginald E. Stubbs as Governor it appeared on the surface, at least, that he was favoured with what is known as a \"good Press,\" which, whilst retaining their innate rights and independence, the local newspapers, in times of stress and trial, were ever ready to do all that the Press can do to strengthen the Government's hands and to give the right lead to the whole community.\n\nA CHEAP SNEER.\n\n'ress was made at a private and public function, knowing full well that his speech would not be reported in the usual way and that, therefore, the much-maligned Press would be deprived of any opportunity to defend itself against such an uncalled-for and unprovoked attack.\n\nMoreover, he took previous good care that his denunciation, couched in no elegant terms, of the local newspapers was made at a private and public function.\n\nWe have not the slightest hesitation in saying that, go where he will and meet with the same difficult times as he did here, Sir Reginald Stubbs will never meet with a Press so uniformly helpful and tolerant as even that of this Colony.\n\nSir Reginald Stubbs is no longer with us, and his base betrayal of the Press can disturb our equanimity not one iota.\n\nWhatever success he may have achieved in his capacity as Governor here, he owed in very large part to the Press.\n\nThat is said in no spirit of \"crowning\" or vainglory.\n\nHe was throughout his tenure of office treated with the dignity and respect due to His Majesty the King's representative.\n\nSir Reginald Stubbs had a better Press than he deserved.\n\nCONTENTS.\n\nLeading Articles:\n\nA Cheap Sneer 1-2\n\n24 Hours Notice 2\n\nTelepathy 2\n\nStorm Havoc 2-3\n\nStorm Precautions 3\n\nBoxer Indemnity Funds 3\n\nObituary 3\n\nOverland China Mail.\n\n\"One Man Show!\"\n\nYoung Prodigy 4\n\nComing Here 5\n\nThe Boycott 5\n\nAbout Swee 6\n\nJunk Piracy 7\n\nFrance's Day 7\n\nCadet Ships Visit 8\n\nCapt.

The heart and lungs were not examined except in a few special cases.\n\nThe defects found, 436, or roughly 10%, were largely those of vision; about one fourth of the number had enlarged tonsils or unhealthy mouths and only two cases of unclean heads were found.\n\nAmong the smaller children there is need for conservative dentistry.\n\nArrangements were made by the Education Department whereby children in Government Anglo-Chinese Schools have their eyes examined (refraction test) by Dr. Morrison. Spectacles are provided, where necessary, to Dr. Morrison's prescription by Messrs. Lazarus, at Government expense.\n\nCases of minor ailments, scabies, ear discharge, deformities, &c., have been advised or treated at the Government Civil Hospital or at the Chinese Public Dispensaries.\n\nThe teaching of hygiene has not been systematic, nor in some cases well suited to junior classes, and improvements in this direction are being considered. A short course of lectures on Hygiene for Schools and Scholars is being arranged for the Senior Class (soon to be qualified teachers) of the Vernacular Normal School for Women.\n\nMany schools have no playground, and very little space where physical exercises can be carried out; these are much needed, both for healthy development of boys and girls, and as an alternative to close eye work in classrooms.\n\nThe number of short-sighted pupils is very large. It is to be hoped some improvement may take place in this direction.\n\nE. M. MINETT,\n\n20th May, 1926.\n\nM.O.

But it has educated students from all over China,\n\nmany of whom are now doing well; and it is perhaps not irrelevant to remind Your Lordship in this connection of what His Excellency, the Chancellor, has already brought to your\n\nnotice, namely that on account of scholars sent to the\n\nUniversity, the Peking Government and other governments of\n\nChina are still in the University's debt to the extent of over\n\none hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars.\n\n4.\n\nAmong the proposals in connection with which His\n\nExcellency, the Chancellor, has approached Your Lordship, is\n\na scheme for establishing in the University of Hong Kong a Faculty of Chinese studies. His Excellency deprecates the\n\ncomparative neglect with which Chinese studies have hitherto\n\nbeen treated in the University, and is emphatic in his view\n\nthat this defect should be made good as soon as possible.\n\nWith this view we are in complete agreement. The scheme for\n\na Chinese Faculty which is now being laid before Your Lordship\n\nwill not only provide facilities for the study of Chinese\n\nclassics by Chinese students, and for the comparative study by\n\nsuch students of the English and Chinese languages, but it\n\nwill also be designed to afford opportunities for Britishers,\n\nboth civil servants and commercial men, to acquire the Chinese\n\nlanguage.\n\n5.\n\nThen the University of Hong Kong was started, stress was laid on the undesirability of sending immature Chinese boys far away from their homes and traditions and sustous of their country, to be educated in Europe and America. The Canton Viceroy quoted above was particularly emphatic regarding this danger. We desire to impress upon Your Lordship and your colleagues that this danger, far from\n\nhaving ceased, is now more acute than ever.\n\n6.\n\nIndiscipline is now too common among students throughout China. From all quarters comes the same complaint\n\nthat students have become a law to themselves, and that\n\n32",

But the Chinese are notorious for the dogged persistence with which they wage this kind of warfare. The great majority of the labourers have gone to their homes and have either found fresh employment or will be maintained by the family circle until such time as their return is permitted by the strikers' Committee.\n\nIf the statement of this Committee is to be relied on, the number of labourers involved in the strike is over 200,000, of whom a fifth are maintained out of the Committee's strike funds. Many are trained and drilled for special work as strike pickets. Heavy toll is demanded from Chinese who attempt to circumvent the edicts of the Strike Committee, and a careful watch is maintained both on water and land. Europeans from Shameen may go into the City without much danger, but they are required to provide themselves with passes issued from strike headquarters and are liable to be searched and interrogated by the strike pickets.\n\nApparently the boycott is well financed. The Canton Government is suspected of contributing towards expenses, but there are several external sources of revenue.\n\nLarge sums have been subscribed by Chinese overseas; foreign vessels which come to Canton to load or unload cargo have to pay heavily for the privilege; also merchandise has to submit to the payment to the Strike Committee of dues of unknown and varying amounts over and above the fixed import and export duties determined by treaties and collected by the Maritime Customs officials. This policy of penalising non-British shipping is exceedingly short-sighted, but the desire to ruin the commercial importance...",

        "content_text": "# To my Old Girls.\n\nMy dears,\n\n**Hotel International, Nice.**\n**3.4.27.**\n\nFor old times' sake, when sheaves of your examination papers used to pass through my hands (sometimes giving me great pleasure, and sometimes the reverse), I thought I must send you my message on foolscap. But it is almost impossible for me to express what I am feeling, for I have not yet properly assimilated the fact of the great honour you have done me in making me one of the Patrons of the new B.O.G.A. I send you my most grateful thanks for that, and for sending me your signatures to gladden my old heart, and to remind me as I read over the list of names of many things connected with each one of you which come back to me in association with your dear names. I have been mentally putting each one of you before me as I read, and am astonished to find how much of the past comes to my memory, and such a pleasant past. Had it been possible I should have liked to send a separate letter to each of you, but you will understand that this collective acknowledgment means just as much. That your new Association may prosper is the dearest wish of your old friend, **E. TUTCHER, Patron, B.O.G.A.**\n\nTo return to the dinner; when the meal was over, a short informal concert was given, songs being sung by Mrs. Gutierrez, Miss Olivia Xavier and Miss Mow Fung; we greatly enjoyed all the songs.\n\nThen followed games, including strenuous musical chairs, made all the more exciting because the chairs showed a distinct tendency to turn round with the players. Then someone was inspired to think of a flash-light photograph, and while we waited for this to be taken we sang part songs with great fervour under the direction of Miss Xavier. We gave a most spirited rendering of old favourites like \"Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree,\" familiar to Guides, and \"Three Blind Mice\"; and we extended our knowledge of the Chinese language by wrestling with the Chinese Version of \"Three Blind Mice,\" best written, I think, as \"Sam ko mang lo shü.\" Unfortunately we could not agree on the whole verse, so we must wait for the next B.O.G.A. dinner to complete our knowledge.\n\nAfter the Photograph had been taken, the meeting ended with \"For she's a jolly good fellow\" and good wishes to Miss Skinner; then with \"Auld Lang Syne\" and a vote of thanks to Miss Lewis, the Vice-President of the Association.\n\nIt was altogether a delightful evening, and great credit for its success must be given to those responsible for the arrangements.\n\n## THE B.O.G.A.'S SUMMER PICNIC\n\nIt was originally intended to have an outing to Shatin by train on the 11th June, but unfortunately owing to the poor response from members, due no doubt to the very warm weather, it was decided to have a launch picnic instead.\n\nOn the 17th June, a party of over 60 members and their friends left Queen's Pier by a double-decker launch at 5.30 p.m. for Seaton. The journey took about ¾ of an hour, by which time the swimmers had donned their bathing suits ready for the water. These spent a very enjoyable dip, especially the children, of whom there was a large number. Those who did not swim went ashore and spent a very pleasant time rambling in the garden and on the slopes of the hills around Seaton. Upon returning on board, refreshments were served, the catering being in the hands of Messrs. Lane, Crawford. During the journey home, the songsters rendered several items, and it was not until a late hour that the merry party returned to Hongkong.\n\nThe outing was a decided success, so much so that members voted for another one. This second picnic took place on the 30th June, but it was not so well supported, as at the last moment the weather looked threatening and kept quite a number of subscribers away. However, the keener members braved the elements and the launch duly sailed at 5.30 p.m. when fortunately the weather cleared.\n\nThe venue this time was a small bay near the Kowloon Docks. The swimmers found the water very enjoyable and everybody spent a most pleasant afternoon. This time the catering was kindly undertaken by Miss Delminda Lopes, who unfortunately could not attend at the last moment owing to the death of her cousin. She has the sympathy of all B.O.G.A. members. Miss Marian Yuen very kindly came forward and volunteered to look after the catering and she made a very energetic and capable substitute.\n\nThe Editor of the Belilios Journal hopes to make the Magazine a means of keeping the Old Girls of B.P.S. in touch not only with the present girls but with their own contemporaries. In every Magazine there will be a section devoted to the meetings of the B.O.G.A., but we would like to have one part also for the news of Old Girls themselves. Members of the B.O.G.A. are therefore urged to send to the Hon. Secretary of the Association any news of themselves which will be of interest to their friends; this will be passed on to the Editor of the Belilios Journal.

Mr. Fraser, however, established friendly relations with the Chinese District Inspector of Police at Nam O (on the Mirs Bay shore of the Peninsula separating that bay from Bias Bay) and was given to understand that the position was realized and the demand would not be repeated.

When the power of Marshal Chiang Kai-shek increased, and the hopes of the reactionaries faded further and further into the distance, General Li's independence dwindled; and the Nationalist Government appears now to consider him to be a staunch Kuomintang adherent, as his name appears among the Provincial Commissioners for Kwang-tung, whose appointment was reported in my secret despatch of the 26th May, 1927. He is commander of the 5th Nationalist Army.\n\n2. A memorandum of the interview is enclosed. I am disposed to think that General Li's presence in Hong Kong had the accidental character which he attributes to it, and it is a fact that \"Master James Lee\", the son of General Li, left for Seattle yesterday in the s.s. President Grant under the care of Dr. and Mrs. Cadbury of the Lingnam University at Canton, with whose family he is to be brought up in the United States of America. But General Li's mention of the country property of his former ally General Ngai Pong-peng may be of greater significance than appears at first sight. Rumours of a disaster to the new \"Northern Expedition\" against the Communists in Hunan and Kiangsi grow in strength, and forces appear to have been withdrawn from the protection of Canton and even from such notoriously \"red\" areas as the East River and the Luichow peninsula.

It is produced in steam-driven power stations. In Germany, where intensive electrical development is also in process, out of a total production of three and a half million kilowatts, only half a million was from water power, one million was from inferior brown coal (lignite) and two millions from black coal.\n\nWhen the question of electric power was first explored in Great Britain, it was thought that our small, sluggish rivers could be harnessed, especially for the supply to rural areas. But a fuller examination of the subject has vindicated the American system of big generating stations with a monopoly of supply over certain areas.\n\nMr. HERBERT HOOVER, speaking on this subject of big power stations during the time that he held the post of Secretary of Commerce, said: \"The economical generation and distribution of power require local territorial monopoly. Competing systems in power distribution in the same area mean an economic duplication of capital and represent a tremendous waste in equipment, and in the end, such duplication is a charge upon the community.\"\n\nMany of the products of modern science are by no means unmixed blessings, but the supply of this source of light and power in the factory and the homes saves heavy and distasteful labour. It does not create \"black areas,\" injure health or deface scenery. Electricity may claim to be a true civilizer and benefactor of humanity.\n\nThe total output of the Kailan Mining Administration's mines for the week ending September 15th, amounted to 68,561 tons, and the sales during the period to 80,598 tons.\n\nUpon his return from short leave, Capt. A. J. L. Whyte, R.E., has been re-appointed A.D.C. to H.E. the Officer Administering the Government with effect from September 22nd.\n\nThe United States industrialists found that electricity was superior to the direct steam drive. The work of electrification was started, and the older machinery was ruthlessly scrapped.\n\nA recent British wireless message announced that a start in the long-overdue \"electrification of England\" has been made, and contracts were placed for 132,000-volt transmission lines over an area of nearly 9,000 square miles, which includes the whole of London.\n\nEngland has lagged sadly behind other countries in this matter of electric power on a big scale, and the present economic situation of the country can be traced largely to neglect in this direction.\n\nThe figures speak for themselves. America's industrial development is one of the most amazing phenomena of history, and it has been in no small measure due to this application of the new source of power.\n\nNorway, with her abundant source of water power, heads the nations in a table of annual consumption per head of population.\n\nThe figures follow:-\n\nNorway: 1,600 units.\n\nCanada: 910\n\nUnited States: 528\n\nGermany: 230\n\nGreat Britain: 155\n\nItaly: 129\n\nLondon's electricity consumption, per capita, is one-fifth that of Chicago and half that of Berlin.\n\nParis and Milan, to mention only two other big cities, are also ahead of the British capital.\n\nThe tragedy of the Scott Antarctic Expedition is recalled by the announcement of the death at Rothesay, at the age of eighty, of Mrs. Bowers, whose son, Lieut. Bowers, was one of Captain Scott's companions in the fatal dash to the South Pole of 1910-12.\n\nA new form of furniture has become popular in France, and it is being widely bought for office and home use. The novelty lies in the use of nickel tubes for the framework of chairs, tables, and cupboards.\n\nA regular post office was established in Stockholm more than 650 years ago, according to the researches just published by the well-known Swedish historian, Dr. L. M. Baath.\n\nProfessor F. W. Buckler, speaking at the International Congress of Orientalists at Oxford recently, said that a garment which appears to have escaped attention is the khilat, or discarded robe of certain ancient Eastern kings.\n\nThe Antarctic expedition which Comdr. Byrd is to head this year sounds more like an assault than an exploration.\n\nCigar and cigarette-end collecting is still a flourishing trade in Paris, and one of its most expert practitioners has been telling a Paris newspaper something of his method of procedure.\n\nThe noise nuisance is beginning to be studied in France, as befits a country where the individual must obey, and not command.\n\nNew laws will forbid the inordinate use of hooters; newspaper vendors will not be allowed to cry their wares; costers and dealers in lottery tickets must henceforth let the things they sell speak for themselves.\n\nPage 100\n\nPage 101",

It is possible, however, that in addition to any mui-tsais who may desire to leave their present homes there will be others whose employers are unable or unwilling to retain their services if they have to pay them wages. It will be necessary to provide for such cases but in the absence of any indication of what the number is likely to be it is difficult to know what provision to make. \n\nI cannot recommend at present the establishment of an Industrial Home such as the Committee suggest. Very heavy expense would be involved and very likely without due cause the number of girls who may need to be provided for may be only a few dozen at the most. For disciplinary reasons, it would be necessary to run the institution on lines similar to those of a reformatory and to restrict the liberty of the inmates: it would therefore be unpopular and no girl would enter it if she could find any alternative work. \n\nMoreover, such an institution could scarcely be built and ready for occupation in less than two years at the earliest by which time it may be hoped that any need for it would practically have ceased to exist. \n\nI think that it is reasonable to anticipate that the number of cases to be provided for will not be larger than can be dealt with adequately with the assistance of the Po Leung Kuk and other charitable institutions or by arrangements with individual employers of labour and I advise that the matter should be left in that state for the present. If a detailed scheme has to be worked out to deal with contingencies that will very probably never arise there will be indefinite delay before a start is made with the abolition of the mui-tsai system. \n\n## Enclosure in No. 7\n\nI have, etc., \n\n**R. E. STUBBS** \n\n## REPORT BY A JOINT COMMITTEE OF THE SOCIETY FOR PROTECTION OF MUI-TSAI AND THE ANTI-MUI-TSAI SOCIETY\n\nThe Honourable, \n\nSir, \n\nThe Secretary for Chinese Affairs, \n\nPresent. \n\nHong Kong, 29th May, 1922, \n\nIn compliance with your verbal request made on 11th March, 1922, that the Society for Protection of Mui-tsai and the Anti-Mui-tsai Society should co-operate to devise a scheme for the abolition of the mui-tsai system for submission to the Hong Kong Government, we, the members of the Joint Committee separately elected by these two societies for this purpose, have the honour to communicate our conclusions. In our deliberations, we bear in mind that the number of mui-tsais is in the neighbourhood of ten thousand and that it may be beyond the resources of the Government to provide maintenance for all of them. Moreover, we realize that mui-tsai-keeping is a very old practice and that the interests of the owner cannot be entirely ignored, and, consequently, we are inclined to adopt the expedient of treating the purchase price of a mui-tsai as money advanced to her parent. For this consideration, the mui-tsai has to remain to work for her owner for a certain number of years before she regains her freedom. Only on this foundation can we hope to build up an adequate organization for effecting abolition. \n\n### Legislation\n\nTo our mind, the first step lies in promulgating the necessary legislation, particulars of which are suggested in `Appendix A`. Registration of mui-tsai is absolutely necessary to effect abolition: the form recommended is not so irksome that opposition from the public has to be met. Moreover, registration is necessary in order to check the importation of mui-tsai, which, after the passing of the necessary ordinance, is to be a punishable offence. Although ordinances have to be rigidly enforced, we beg to point out that undue interference by the Police and Excise Officers with arrivals in the Colony accompanied by their natural or adopted daughters cannot be too strongly deprecated. It is recommended that the fullest publicity is to be given to the provisions of the ordinance, which should be available to the public at all the police-stations, markets, river and coastal steamers and trains, and a copy of which should be served on every householder whose name appears in the latest Census as the owner of one or more mui-tsais. \n\n### Employment Bureau\n\nAs will be seen from `Appendix A`, mui-tsais over the age of 20 years (according to Chinese reckoning) regain their liberty. Although it is expected that the majority of them will remain with their present owners as servants on monthly wages, provision for the absorption of those who fail to make this arrangement has to be made. Hence the necessity for an employment bureau, which will be extremely useful in the event of the accommodation in the proposed Industrial Home being insufficient for the purposes for which it is designed. In such an eventuality, it will be permissible for this bureau to let out to respectable householders on wages the services of those mui-tsais over ten years of age who have to rely upon the Government for support. Applications for the service of these girls must be accompanied by a chop guarantee that the girls will be properly fed, clothed and treated. \n\n### Industrial Home\n\nFull particulars and estimates of the proposed home are given in `Appendix B`. It will be recalled that the \"Commission to enquire into the Conditions of the Industrial Employment of Children in Hong Kong\", in its report to the Government, has recommended the institution of such an establishment to solve the child labour problem and that the \"League of Fellowship and Service\" has, on its programme, the same object in view. In short, there is already a strong public opinion in favour of the establishment of such a home, in which seri-culture, the promotion and improvement of which is one of the recommendations of the Economic Resources Committee, should form the chief industry. The estimates and particulars are furnished to us by Mrs. A. O'Ben (Mrs. Au Bun), who, during the past three years has been conducting, at her own expense, a home on similar lines in Shanghai for the benefit of orphans of both sexes, and who, if requested by the Government, may agree to assist. We beg to state that increase of accommodation in the proposed home can be effected at small extra cost by the erection of wooden tenements with fire-proof roofs. \n\nIn conclusion, we have to add that as the scheme for abolition is urgently required, the time at our disposal prevents us from going further into details. However, we shall be glad to supply information or suggestions to the Government on any point that may require elucidation or explanation. \n\n## Enclosures\n\n- `Appendix A`\n- `Appendix B`\n\nWe remain, \n\nYours faithfully, \n\n* CHAU TSUN NIN\n* TSE KA PO\n* WONG KWONG TIN\n* M.

        "content_text": "# THE HONG KONG DAILY PRESS, MONDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1929.\n\n## D. REGISTRATION MUI TSAIS.\n\n(Continued from Page 4.)\n\nWe concentrate our attention on the problem of all problems, namely Mui-tsai and social evil. It is our heartfelt desire to fulfil our duty as citizens, to relieve poor innocent girls of their misery and to warn their oppressors against breaking the law. We cannot but hope that they will awaken to their duty to humanity and cease from doing evil. As long as the Mui-tsai system exists, it will be a blot on future local generations. It only remains for me to urge you to help uphold a good cause, and spare no pains to support great principles, to win over more members to the Society, and if possible, to report every possible case of cruelty so that the enforcement of registration of Mui-tsai may soon be an accomplished fact.\n\n## SECRETARY'S SPEECH.\n\nMr. J. D. Bush said the Chairman had touched on many valuable points in his speech, and no better figure could illustrate his undying devotion to the cause than that of the true knight of old, who was on his oath and honour to rescue and save his oppressed lady. He feels that it is as much his duty to defend the weak and redress the injured, as it is of the savage and the brutal to usurp and use others.\" Mr. Bush continued:—\n\n### Tribute to the S.C.A.\n\n\"In passing, it may be also mentioned that more gratifying results have been achieved than hitherto in representations made to the Secretariat for Chinese Affairs concerning cruelty or ill-treatment of Mui-tsai or bond girls. During the past six months, most cases have been taken up and examined with the quickest despatch.\n\n### Mrs. Haslewood on Registration.\n\nThe Chairman has dealt at length with the question of registration. It only remains for me to quote these words of Mrs. Haslewood, relating to the same issue, during a conference held at the British Commonwealth League. They urged registration. They said that it was the only way to find out how many there were, where they were, and how they were. They may be doing it now, but we have not heard so. At the docks, when the Chinese flow in from Canton, they should be made to register at once and not allowed to land unless they make a complete and true registration.' Then Mrs. Haslewood was asked the question, 'Is it true that there is a British officer whose job it is at the ports to ask certain girls who are being sold for definite purposes, whether they are satisfied with their conditions?' Mrs. Haslewood's reply was:- 'Absolutely true. They have been taught what to answer for weeks beforehand under the most dire penalties. There should be a Chinese Christian woman there to talk to these children, and assure them that they have nothing to fear if they tell the truth.' Another question was: 'Are there homes ready to receive the children?' to which Mrs. Haslewood replied:- 'There is a refuge (Po Leung Kok). It is a most soul-less official place, which no timid child would dream of going to. I begged years ago for a nice refuge, run by English people, who would try to help the children. It is badly needed.'\n\n\"I have no doubt many of you at this meeting can readily visualise in your mind's eye the mountains of difficulty surmounted and the stern trials met by the Chairman during the past eight years. In return for his efforts in this Steyphian task, he has reaped only invective and hatred and been branded, perhaps, as a fomenter of trouble. I make mention of this fact by way of telling you how un-deserved I am of the tribute that the Chairman has paid me. The credit rests entirely on him for devoting all his time and energy to this great task of emancipating the Mui-tsais of the Colony.\n\n### The March of Progress.\n\nAt this stage, it seems to me that the issue of abolishing the Mui-tsai system still hinges on the ancient struggle between 'may' and 'must,' the conservative and progressive. Those who insist on conservatism aim at holding fast or advancing at a snail's pace. The progressive reformer goes for the better, for the ideal. In short, one is inclined to lay stress on keeping still and the other on advancing. But advance we must, for that is the law of life. We must change for the better in every way, day by day. As the great American philosopher says, 'Over and above all the mists of poverty and appetite is the instinct of man to rise, and the instinct to love and help his brother.' The same philosopher also tells us, 'If slavery is good, then is lying, theft, arson, homicide each and all good, to be maintained by union societies.' As practical idealists we are bound to range on the side of humanity and Justice and burn our boats upon the review.\n\n### CANTON'S CO-OPERATION.\n\nIt was pointed out at the meeting that one of the arguments against registration was that it was difficult to enforce. If, for instance, a Chinese family came from Canton to Hong Kong, it would be difficult to differentiate between the daughter of the family and the Mui-tsai, and that would mean that every one would have to be stopped and questioned on the pier or landing place.\n\nThe answer to this objection, it was pointed out that in Hong Kong there are laws against smuggling and in order to prevent it an elaborate search system has been installed and heavy penalties inflicted when delinquents were caught. The same could be done with wilful evaders of registration. It was also pointed out that the authorities in Canton are working towards the amelioration of the position of the Mui-tsai and a Social Welfare Bureau had been recently established. The local body hoped to get in touch with both the Canton Government and the `Ruzer11`.\n\nThe Chinese secretary in reviewing the year's work pointed out that a number of people have shown their willingness to support the Society and some have written in offering their advice, amongst them being Mr. Yau Lit, who is now living in the New Territories, and who had once been a colleague of Dr. Sun Yat Sen.\n\n### No Better Solution Than Registration.\n\nIt is a question, then, whether the Mui-tsai shall be gradually emancipated, by finding the best solution possible, or let them go on being regarded as chattels or as pieces of money. We have time and again invited the best-thinking citizens of the Colony to offer a better solution than registration, but up to this moment none has ever come forward with a more effective remedy for the festering evil. Instead, some few carping critics have stood by the roadside croaking at us with this cynicism: 'Virtue, I have followed thee through life, and I find thee but a shadow.' As virile idealists we cannot allow the Mui-tsai system to be upheld for the convenience of a few. As the Chairman has intimated, we must not grow weary of well-doing. We should push on with the good work.\n\nSince the last annual meeting of October 22, 1928, the Society has been able to establish close co-operation with The Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society in London, and the British Commonwealth League, the primary object of which is \"To secure Equality of Liberties, Status and Opportunities between men and women in the British Commonwealth of Nations. Thanks to the kind efforts of Mrs. C. B. L. Haselwood and Commander C. B. L. Haselwood, R.N. (Retired), we are able to get in the closest touch with the above organizations and allied Societies which take a serious view of all issues relating to equal citizenship.\n\nIt was also announced that Dr. Ma Luk had made a generous donation to the Society and that the Chinese Press are co-operating by inserting advertisements, free of charge.\n\n## BRITISH AVIATION TRIUMPH.\n\n### REMARKABLE ENGINE IN SEAPLANE FOR HONG KONG.\n\nThe Manager of the Far Eastern Aviation Company, Mr. Vaughan Fowler, has received information that the Cirrus Aero Engine Company, London, one of whose engines is fitted in the Avian Hermes seaplane, due to arrive here next week, won a remarkable triumph at the Newcastle Air Pageant on October 5.\n\nCirrus engines won the following air races:-\n| Cup | Position |\n| --- | --- |\n| Society of British Aircraft Constructors' Challenge Cup | 1st, 3rd |\n| Grosvenor Challenge Cup | 1st |\n| Air League of the British Empire Challenge Cup | 1st, 3rd |\n\nThe fastest time of the day was obtained by a Cirrus-Hermes Widgeon. It will be remembered that the Hermes is the latest development of the Cirrus and gives 105/113 h.p.",

        "content_text": "too and to having a Hostel to offer to a much larger number of women students who are beginning to realize the value of this corporate student life in a Hostel.\n\nOur hopes and endeavours to secure a permanent Hostel suitable to our needs has had the most enthusiastic support of the Government of Hong Kong in the person of Mrs. Southorn, who, on October 29th called together a great meeting of Hong Kong residents to make our wants known to them.\n\nIn the course of a speech made at that meeting by Miss Royden, the value of Hostel life was emphasized. She said.\n\n\"The University age is the age at which people form the habit of making friends and gathering the power to work with other people. They learn to value people who are not personally congenial. The corporate life of a Hostel can alone teach these lessons. Hostel life therefore prepares students for public life, The continued discipline and education of living in close contact with other people is invaluable. Here in Hong Kong the students have the further advantage of learning to understand those of other nations also this is tremendously important in any public work.\n\n\"Collegiate life is more valuable for women even than for men, since men have later opportunities of learning to be public-spirited. That spirit can best be fostered by Hostel life. I plead all to make the Hostel possible for these women.' you After the appeal, a strong representative Committee was formed and they are now at work collecting Funds for the erection of the Hostel.\n\nThe whole women student body have also set themselves to work to help forward this their cause, and we trust that a Hostel worthy of the name will soon materialize for them.\n\nMeanwhile they are taking as much share as is possible in the social activities of the University.\n\nOur small Hostel does its part specially in forwarding any of the work of the H.K.U. Christian Association. In this connection we have taken our part with St. John's Hall and Morrison Hall in holding Sunday afternoon gatherings for Bible study and discussion of things vital to our Christian living.\n\n44\n\nPage 44\n\nPage 45\n\nPractices for the Christmas Concert given in the Great Hall, were organized here under the kind direction of Mr. Mason.\n\nIn all of these gatherings the men and women students have throughout worked together in happy co-operation.\n\nVery little social service has yet been undertaken by the women. We hope that this spirit will grow as we become a stronger and more united body. At present a few volunteers are found to visit the Women's Prison on Sunday and to undertake one educational class there during the week. Others undertake the simple instruction of the servants of our own establishment.\n\nWe are very grateful for the encouragement which has been given to our sports in the loan of a piece of land in Robinson Road by Mr. Ho Wing Tsun.\n\nThere is room here for courts for net ball or tennis and we already find that resident and non-resident students are beginning to organize games here which are a real help in the growth of a corporate spirit.\n\nWe are glad this year to record the success of our Hostel students. Miss Florence Wong, who graduated in Arts has since returned to take up work in the Strait Settlements.\n\nAnother student was about to sit for her final Medical Examination when she was suddenly taken very seriously ill with blood poisoning and to the great grief of all her fellow students passed away in the French Hospital during the examination week. We should like here to add our small tribute of respect to the sweet memory of Miss Tso Shuk Kei.\n\nRespected and beloved as Head Girl of St. Stephen's Girls College she was one to whom we women students feel we owe a special debt and gratitude, for it was she who first made the appeal from her own school platform that the University would open its doors to admit women to the privileges of attending lectures there.\n\nShe herself was one of the first to enter St. Stephen's Hall and to enjoy the privileges of a Medical student of the University of Hong Kong.\n\nHer quiet dignity and unassuming leadership in the Hostel united with her care for all that was for the higher good of her\n\n45",

I heard the same sounds twice repeated.\n\nAbout 8 p.m. I heard the voice of the Indian Lance Sergeant shout something inside the station, and heard the voice of the Indian munshi reply from the direction of the married quarters.

Her skull and brains were scattered all over the floor. The wall on the compound side had brain and blood spattered on it. It was clear to me that she must have been leaning against the bathroom door with her left shoulder and stooping a little when a bullet came through the door and took off the back of her head. At close range, one bullet could have done that. The wall received three bullets in all that hit the head. The wall opposite the bathroom door contained 5 holes, to 3 of which the bullet that adhered fragments of the deceased's hair actually took away the back of her head must have been the 3rd one. Death would have been instantaneous with the firing of that shot. As a result of examination at the time, I am satisfied there had been no attempt to interfere sexually with the deceased. At the Kowloon Mortuary on the 22nd July, I did a post-mortem in the presence of Inspector Brennan, who identified the body as that of Mrs. Hadgwick. On the same occasion, he also identified the bodies of F.C.B.543 Dalip Singh and Chagg Singh B.9.\n\nThe second dead body I saw that night was that of P.C.B.543. This body was lying on its back on the front 1st floor verandah. It was warmer than Mrs. Madgwick's, but I judged it from its condition to have been dead less than 5 hours. I found a bullet wound that carried away the right orbital cavity and surrounding bone. The posterior wall of the skull behind had been carried away together with the greater part of the brain. No other wound was discovered at the post-mortem next day. This wound must have been caused by a bullet fired at very short range and could have been self-inflicted. Death was the instantaneous result of the wound. I saw a rifle lying beside B.543 on the verandah.\n\nPage 20  \nPage 21",

Wakelin (hon. secretary, Reading branch, League of Nations Union), etc.\n\n## The League and Slavery\n\nSir John Simon, in his opening remarks, recalled the fact that many years ago he visited the Reading Town Hall, when their candidate was Sir Rufus Isaacs, now Lord Reading. It was now a very great pleasure to come to Reading on an occasion which was not one of party controversy, but an occasion when they were calling upon all good men and women interested in the betterment of the world and prepared to help in practical steps to promote it, to join in this crusade. He was informed that the Reading branch of the League of Nations Union had a membership of something like 3,000—a perfectly splendid record. There would be many people who held, as he held himself, that the creation of the League of Nations was the most important and permanent result of the war. What was not always remembered was that in the Covenant of the League of Nations was an undertaking by all who signed it to endeavour to stamp out slave trading throughout the world. For two or three years after, the Covenant work was done in other international directions. Then a British statesman, Sir Arthur Steel Maitland, who was present officially at Geneva, called upon the League to set up an inquiry into the extent to which crude slavery still existed in the world. Many people of their generation had been rather disposed to think that the crusade carried on a century or more ago had ended in such complete success that slavery had been banished from the world. But the League Commission discovered that, as a matter of fact, slavery existed in its most awful forms—the absolute ownership of human creatures—with all the terrible consequences that must follow. The next step at Geneva, again under the leadership of British statesmen, Sir Austen Chamberlain and Lord Cecil, supported by statesmen in other countries, notably Dr. Nansen, was to bind the nations of the world together by a definite treaty. The anti-slavery convention which resulted was signed by 33 states, including the United States, although not a member of the League.\n\n## An International Conscience Wanted\n\nIf slave trading was to be ended, continued Sir John Simon, then slave owning must be ended, for, as in everything else, the supply and demand were related. There existed something like five to six million slaves in the world to-day; there were more actual slaves in the world to-day than were ever liberated as a result of Abraham Lincoln's work in America, or who ever got their release as the result of the work of Wilberforce and Clarkson. The more they could get the mass of the people living in the world, men and women, to make their contribution towards an international conscience, the more it would be an effective, an elevating, a humane instrument. If they could only create this new instrument and make it effective, it was so much more likely to produce justice and fair play than any amount of armed force in the hands of any nation or combination of nations. (Applause). The world was every year becoming more and more sensitive to public opinion. A remarkable instance had occurred in Liberia, that curious state founded on the West Coast of Africa for the purpose of receiving released slaves from the United States. As a result of the attention of the world being directed to conditions in that country, a commission of the League was invited, and some of the facts recorded in their report were shocking indeed. But there could be no question that they were in a better position to remedy the evils existing in Liberia than they could ever have been if it had not been for the powerful and potent force of public opinion.\n\n## An Appeal for Humanity\n\nSir John concluded: There are people who would suggest that we have enough evils in our own country. I have not found that the people who take the keenest and closest interest in this anti-slavery movement are people who show indifference to the remedying of wrongs at home. I do not think you can divide people into compartments like that. The fact that you are responsive to an appeal for humanity, for fair play for those who are weak and suffering and powerless, makes you a better patriot and a better Englishman. The measure of our own devotion to freedom, the true extent to which we deserve and justify our own possession, depends upon the vigour with which we respond to the appeal for those who do not enjoy what we have. This wide view of the needs of the world and the future of the human race should make every one of us a better citizen in the actual work of our own lives, our own homes and our own towns. (Applause).\n\nSir John Simon then vacated the chair, having to leave early in order to take part in a division in the House of Commons. The chair was taken by the Mayor of Reading.\n\n## Present Slave Conditions\n\nLady Simon, in tracing the history of commercialised slavery, said Britain had a bad record. Fifty years before Columbus, the Portuguese started the business; then eight nations competed for the monopoly of the slave trade, and Britain won. Almost everyone, even people in the ministry, was engaged in the trade in one way or another. Churches and chapels in Bristol were built on the profits of the trade, and Liverpool became wealthy as a consequence of it. In the 18th century, it was in its most active form. Then came the spirit of those abolitionists who were moved to pity, and so began the movement to stop the slave trade under the British flag. Wilberforce worked for twenty years before he got the slave trade abolished. But to their shame, in some parts of the world, slavery still existed. There was every excuse for ignorance; there was no excuse for apathy. The League of Nations Commission had reported that there was slavery in blazing activity in 19 different areas of the world to-day. Abyssinia, the only Christian country which possessed slaves; it was, in fact, estimated that there were more slaves in the capital than there were free men. The procuring of these slaves was attended with the most horrible cruelties—husband was torn from wife, and child from mother. No human being was good enough to have complete control over any other human being. (Hear, hear). It was very creditable that the British nation should have an outpost in the Sudan, of which every slave in Abyssinia had heard, where they knew, if once they could reach it, complete liberty was theirs. (Applause). No escaped slave had ever been sent back by Britain.\n\nChild Slaves in Hong Kong. Arabia, as far as could be estimated, had 700,000 slaves, and in British, French and Italian Somaliland, the different nations were constantly on the watch to capture slave traders from this country. There was a wicked device to help them get across the Red Sea, however, for the slaves were often marked as pilgrims to Mecca, thus making it more and more difficult to catch them. In China, there were two million child slaves. There was only one way in which China could be got at through the League of Nations. That brought her to an English colony which condoned slavery, Hong Kong, where there were some 10,000 child slaves owned by the Chinese. She suggested that all present should write to their M.P. and ask what he was doing about that. Every person could do something if they only cared. She urged them to join the Anti-Slavery Society, and so help to redeem Britain's bad record by assisting those who were seeking to abolish slavery. Slavery was a terrible injustice to human beings; their crusade against it stood for the deepest things—the value of freedom, the hatred of oppression, and the conviction that the rights of an individual had nothing to do with caste, colour, creed or religion. (Applause).\n\nVotes of thanks were accorded Sir John and Lady Simon, and the Mayor of Reading on the proposition of the Archdeacon of Berks, seconded by Mr. E. B. Castle (headmaster of Leighton Park School, Reading).",

The agreement would be about April, 1927\n\nWhat was the agreed price? $240,000.00.\n\nWhere was the building? 25, Des Voeux Road Central.\n\nHow did you manage to pay for it? $150,000.00 was allowed to remain on mortgage. And the balance, we paid in cash.\n\nHow was it you left so much on mortgage? We paid $90,000.00 off.\n\nDid you pay it at once? It was paid from time to time as called for by the bill of sale.\n\nWas not the building the property of one of your Directors? Not to my knowledge.\n\nIt originally belonged to the original bank? Yes, it was sold to us through a broker.\n\nFrom whom did you get the assignment? I believe it was from the Official Receiver.\n\nWhat about Lui Vai? I can't say without looking up the documents. Nobody has made any money out of this bank to my knowledge.\n\nYou did not buy direct from the original bank? No.\n\nDid not Yow Fun(?) buy it for $205,000.00 and sell it to you for $240,000.00? I don't believe it.\n\nA little later on, October, 1928, you wanted money in advance? After Canton and Shekki had closed down.\n\nYou had all those advances still in existence and the only way you could raise $20,000.00 was on a mortgage on which you had to pay 24%? Not the only way, but the quickest way and if you will consult the Directors' Minutes, you will see that I was ordered to do it.\n\nWhat I am pointing out is that these people were so well off and you had about three lakhs still there, yet you had to pay 24% on a mortgage. (Mr. ... read the Minutes concerning the mortgage) After the Canton and Shekki branches were closed the only way we could collect was through the Law Courts, and that is a very slow way.\n\nThere is only one, Yu Ki Han, you sued. No, there were none.\n\nDid the arrangement between Mrs. Brewer and the Bank arise through the failure of the people in payment, not doing as you expected? When did you first know they were not going to pay? I should say we did not give up hopes until about January, 23.\n\nThe negotiations had not fallen through? No.\n\nYou formed the Instone Trading Company in April? Yes.",

        "content_text": "## C. S. O. M.F. 237.\n\nThe Dominion of Canada cordially associates herself with the Crown Colony of Hong Kong by participating in the British Empire Fair which is opening to-day. It is gratifying to the Canadian Government, and particularly to myself, as Minister of Trade and Commerce, that Canada has been accorded such excellent facilities for thus displaying before the citizens of Hong Kong and South China samples of her natural products and manufactures, with a view to further extending inter-Imperial trade between these two sections of the British Commonwealth of Nations. It is particularly fitting that this Fair should open on May 24th, the anniversary of the \"Mother of the Empire\", the late Queen Victoria, and a day celebrated throughout the British Empire as indicative of its solidarity and its devotion to the Crown.\n\nThe Crown Colony of Hong Kong and the Dominion of Canada have much in common. It was in 1841, during the reign of Queen Victoria, that Hong Kong became a Crown Colony and began to flourish under the Union Jack. It was in the same year that Canada had its first democratic government. Direct steamship services between Canada and Hong Kong provide a means of greatly increasing the volume of trade between, and linking closer together, these at one time distant parts of the Empire. Their products and manufactures are to a large extent complementary, and it is to the advantage of both countries that this trade should be considerably increased. Hong Kong is at the spearhead of a large and practically unexploited trade territory which will, when the existing difficulties have passed, provide Hong Kong with a market for many of Canada's products and which in return may provide for many of Canada's wants.\n\nIt is natural that Hong Kong, due to its location and the unexcelled facilities offered by its harbour, should serve as a centre of distribution for Canadian products which will eventually be consumed in the Southern part of the Chinese Republic. It is our hope that the importers of Hong Kong will give the fullest consideration to the opportunities offered to them by Canadian producers.\n\nIt was with the object of promoting greater trade between Canada and this territory that the appointment of a Trade Commissioner was made in 1929. It is to the advantage of Hong Kong importers to prepare for the future. Canada can provide them with many of their requirements and since it is to their advantage to cultivate a trading partnership with that Dominion.\n\nI congratulate the Chairman and Committee on their efforts to make the Fair a success and feel sure that they will be fully justified by the results obtained.\n\n**N.Z's. BEST WISHES.**\n\nMr. Williamson read the following message from Mr. Masters, the Minister of Industries and Commerce in the New Zealand Government:- Please express best wishes of the New Zealand Government for the success of the Empire Fair and appreciation of the efforts of Government, committees, Hotel company and others to further Empire trade. Also express our thanks for the assistance rendered to New Zealand in this connection.\n\n**FROM AUSTRALIA.**\n\n**Prime Minister's Cable Of Appreciation.**\n\n\"EVERY SUCCESS.\"\n\nMr. J. A. Tonkin delivered the following message from the Minister of the Commonwealth Government of Australia:\n\nOn behalf of the Commonwealth Government, I wish the Empire Fair every success and hope it will mark the opening of many new avenues of inter-Empire trade. Appreciation is expressed to the Government of Hong Kong for the encouragement and assistance in launching the Fair, and to the Fair Committees, the Hotel Company, the Hon. Mr. J. P. Braga, and those organisations and associations whose activities have been responsible for this display of Empire products. Your Fair will be successful and beneficial to all British and Dominion participants.—Lyons, Prime Minister.\n\n## THE GOVERNOR'S SPEECH.\n\n**Trade Commissioner From Home.**\n\n**WHAT OF TARIFFS?**\n\nFormally declaring the Fair open, H.E. the Governor said:- Mr. Paterson, Your Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen: I am very pleased to have the privilege to-day of opening the second Empire Products Fair held in Hong Kong. As you know, the idea was started last year as the outcome of a letter addressed by Mrs. Amery, the wife of a former Secretary of State for the Colonies, to my wife, in which among other things she suggested an all-British food day.\n\nThe proposal to have an Empire Products Fair was taken up with great enthusiasm. My wife assisted in the preliminary stages, but to our regret we were unable to be here for the Fair itself. We were however greatly interested in the accounts which were sent to us. There was no doubt that it was a great triumph, and I take this opportunity of congratulating all those who helped to achieve that success.\n\nIt was indeed so successful that it was quite rightly decided that another Fair should be held this year, and there is no need for me to say that that decision has been amply justified, and that this year's Fair will greatly surpass that of last year.\n\nSuch Fairs have been instituted in many parts of the Empire. The British Industries Fair was started in a modest way in London soon after the War, and has grown to be of the greatest commercial value. Another Fair of the same kind has been held at Birmingham for the last fourteen years and yearly gains increasing popularity. Many of the colonies participate in that held in London, Fiji being one of the latest notable additions; and I hope that at no distant date Hong Kong will be able to participate, showing the people at home that this Colony is developing valuable industries of its own.\n\n**Local Industries.**\n\nIn a recent edition of a very interesting journal called \"The Crown Colonist\", I noticed in a map showing the various sources of Empire products that Hong Kong was marked \"Local industries and trans-shipment for China”. A few years ago the words \"local industries\" would probably not have been written, Hong Kong then being considered very little more than a mere transit port. Industries are now growing up in this Colony, one of the most notable perhaps of recent ventures being the brewing of beer! Only recently I was informed by the head of a well-known Hong Kong firm that they had a very large order from England for rubber-soled shoes manufactured here.\n\nThese Fairs are great factors in the commercial life of the Empire, and help to make us realise what a great Empire is capable of producing. It is wonderful how little many of us know of its great resources. I had an opportunity of visiting the Fair in London in 1928, and I must confess to great surprise at many of the things I saw there.\n\nThe British Empire has held a high position in trade, but owing perhaps to over-confidence has tended to sink in a slough of conservatism, in spite of considerable technical advances in industry. Where we really have to some extent failed is in actual trading.\n\nWe have been inclined to stand on a past reputation of the excellence of our goods, which has always been high, and have been extraordinarily unwilling to investigate changes in demand. Suppliers seem to hold the view that they should decide on what the consumer should take, ignoring the adage that he who pays the piper has the right to call the tune. This tendency, as far as the Far East is concerned, was recognised by the Economic Mission which visited the Far East over two years ago, and also by Mr. Beale, now Commercial Counsellor to our Peking Legation, who drew attention to it in a report which he wrote on trade in Malaya some years ago, when I first met him there. There is no doubt that many of our large suppliers have followed fortuitous methods, and have not appreciated the necessity of studying their markets. I think that I can truthfully say that great improvements have now been made in our methods. The quality of our goods has always been of a high standard and with a better realisation of the customers' needs, I feel that there is every prospect of a considerable increase in trade. If however suppliers wish to achieve a maximum of success I think that they should employ what I might term special Trade Commissioners of their own to carry out continuous investigation of the needs and desires of those whose custom they wish to retain and develop.\n\n**British Commissioner.**\n\nAt the same time I must say that I think that it is time that we had something in the nature of a British Trade Commissioner here to represent the Home Country and those parts of the Empire which are not at present represented, and I am in hopes that such an appointment may materialise in the not far distant future.\n\nMajor Duclos, the Canadian Trade Commissioner, has been with us for some time, and I congratulate him on the success which he has made of his appointment. I also would like to offer him our especial thanks for the very great assistance he has given both at last year's Fair and this Fair. He has indeed been a tower of strength to the organisers.\n\nWe greatly appreciate the friendly message from the Hon. H. H. Stevens, Minister of the Department of Trade and Commerce in Canada, which Major Duclos has just read. It is a message which indicates that true Empire spirit and desire for co-operation at the development of which we should all aim. I think there is a great deal to be done in fostering trade between Hong Kong and Canada, and I agree with Mr. Stevens that we have many interests in common. I passed through Canada on my way Home last year, but had very little time to study conditions there. I was impressed however in particular by three products which I thought could with advantage be exported on a larger scale to Hong Kong, namely motor-cars, fruit and beer. However with the establishment of a local brewery perhaps I had better not extol the value of Canadian liquor!\n\n**Advertising British Goods.**\n\nTrade between Australia and New Zealand and this Colony is growing, and I congratulate Mr. Williamson, who has acted as honorary agent for those Dominions, on this successful development. I also thank him for his valuable assistance in connexion with this Fair.\n\nWe greatly appreciate the friendly messages from Australia and New Zealand which he and Mr. Tonkin have just conveyed to us. I take this opportunity of welcoming to Hong Kong Mr. Tonkin who has just arrived as the representative of the Commonwealth of Australia.\n\nIf the whole Empire will buy British goods, things will become easy and less effort be necessary.\n\n**Tariff Question.**\n\nOur great Empire must be nearly self-supporting, and certainly should be capable of being made so. In spite of the old tradition of free trade, we have been driven to some extent to tariffs, but there is a school, and a very powerful one, which is not satisfied that that is the proper line to follow. At all events I have no hesitation in saying that the imposition of tariffs must not be allowed to depreciate efficiency and economy in production. Fundamentally it is most important that we should learn to produce goods which can compete successfully with similar goods of other countries, and at an economic price to the consumer. Tariffs would be entirely bad if they were to militate against this.\n\nHong Kong, while undoubtedly growing industrially, is still mainly a transit port, and there is no doubt in my mind that tariffs would on the whole therefore probably do more harm than good. It would be fatal to impose tariffs to help one or two industries, if by surrendering the principle which we have followed for many years we for the sake of one or two industries were to ruin the main trade of the port.\n\nMoreover it must be remembered that this Colony is not, except to a small extent, a primary producer and that in regard to its industries it is largely dependent on imported material. In these circumstances I need hardly stress the danger and difficulty of tariffs.\n\nI have not yet had an opportunity of seeing the exhibits to-day, but from what I have learnt there is no doubt that this Fair affords considerable evidence of what can be obtained from Empire sources, and also what this Colony is capable of producing.\n\n**New Territories.**\n\nI am very glad that there is such a fine exhibit of produce from the New Territories, and I trust that substantial purchases will be made. One cannot but be struck by the great local industry and ability of the agriculturist in producing what he does. The Territories have long been noted for producing some of the finest rice in the world, and to-day they are able to produce many varieties of fruit and vegetables, but more requires to be done in the direction of proper marketing, and I should like to see the principles of co-operation developed in this respect. It has been proved that pineapples can be successfully grown, and I should like to see an up-to-date canning factory for this form of fruit developed in the Colony. To compete however with the canned products of other countries such as Hawaii and Malaya, improved methods must be introduced and new strains of pineapple imported.\n\nIn the matter of advertisement, too, we British have been behind other nations. Lulled perhaps by an excessive feeling of confidence and faith in our own products and achievements, we have tended to consider it unnecessary to advertise and push those products. In these days however it must be conceded that if we are to capture the markets, it is necessary to advertise our goods.\n\nIn opening this Fair to-day, I appeal for a greater support for British products, and in that term of course I include the products of this—a British Colony. The number unemployed at home and in other parts of the Empire is very large, due partly to economic depression and partly to the fact that new inventions often diminish the need for man-power. It is necessary therefore, in order to cope with this problem, to develop to the full the resources of the Empire. Team work is called for and we should realise that in supporting British industries we make a valuable contribution to the solution of a difficult Imperial problem. It is essential however that such industries should aim at efficiency and economy and not allow themselves to be lulled into a wrong sense of security under the impression that if the whole Empire buys British, they will be safe.\n\nThe industrial tendency is undoubtedly growing in this Colony, and in spite of the slump and the fact that some factories have had to close.\n\nIt would take too long to mention by name the many residents who have helped towards the organisation of the Fair, but I desire especially to thank the Directors of the Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels for again allocating to the Fair such a large amount of space in the Peninsula Hotel. Mr. Taggart has helped in innumerable ways towards the successful organisation of the Fair, and the Hotel staff has co-operated in every possible way.\n\n**Prime Movers.**\n\nThe Hon. Mr. J. J. Paterson has ably presided over meetings, but on the Hon. Mr. J. P. Braga and his sons, Mr. H. Braga and Mr. A. M. Braga, has fallen the brunt of the work of organisation of exhibits, to which they have given a great deal of their time for months past. In this they have been supported by Mr. Key as Honorary Secretary. The Military authorities have greatly assisted the Committee to keep down expenses by lending a considerable quantity of military equipment which has been used for the erection of stalls. In this connexion I would especially mention the help of Mrs. Borrett, Mrs. Kinnaird Watson, Mrs. Hoare and the numerous ladies who are working under their leadership. The organisers of the several sections—the list is again too long to permit of individual mention—deserve our thanks.\n\nThe necessity of building two large pavilions on the adjoining land has involved special electrical difficulties, in handling which the China Light and Power Co., Messrs. Callender's Cable and Construction Co. Ltd., and Messrs. Wm. C. Jack & Co., have most helpfully collaborated in a way that has placed the Committee under a great obligation. To-night you will see the attractive lighting effects which have been installed.\n\nThe Telephone Company has gone to considerable expense and trouble to install the Public Address System which greatly helps speakers in this large building and will doubtless be found useful to exhibitors for broadcasting announcements within the Exhibition area.\n\nSeveral firms and Public Companies—both British and Chinese—have given transport facilities and many more have distributed advertisements all over the Colony. All the English newspapers and several Chinese newspapers, have rendered essential assistance by placing their columns freely at the disposal of the Committee. I may perhaps conclude this incomplete resume by thanking the many exhibitors on whose combined support the Fair depends.\n\n**Canton Visitors Welcomed.**\n\nI extend a very hearty welcome to H.E. Mr. Lin Yun-koy and our other Canton friends, who have done us the honour of coming here to-day to attend this Fair. Their presence here affords further proof of the excellent relations which exist between Canton and this Colony. This Fair is primarily held on behalf of British products, but many of these, I am happy to say, are purchased by Canton. In some things there is a healthy trade rivalry between Canton and Hong Kong, but speaking generally our interests are closely interwoven, and the prosperity of the one is largely dependent on the prosperity of the other. It is a matter for congratulation therefore that the friendship between the two places is so happily maintained.\n\nI have much pleasure in declaring the Fair open and in wishing it great success.\n\n## C. S. O. M.F. 237.\n\n### SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST. THURSDAY, MAY 25, 1933.\n\n**OFFICIAL OPENING.**\n\n**'GOVERNOR'S PLEA FOR GREATER EMPIRE CO-OPERATION.**\n\n**WELCOME TO OFFICIAL GUESTS.**\n\nWith full ceremonial, the Empire Fair was officially opened by the Governor, Sir William Peel at noon.\n\nThe Governor and Lady Peel were welcomed at the main entrance of the Hotel by the Hon. Mr. J. J. Paterson, Chairman of the Committee, who escorted them through a guard of honour comprising Boy Scouts and Girl Guides to the first floor.\n\nHis Excellency entered with Mr. Paterson, while Lady Peel was accompanied by the Vice-chairman of the Fair Committee (Hon. Mr. J. P. Braga). Then came Mr. S. T. Williamson (honorary agent for the Australian and New Zealand Governments), Major Duclos (Canadian Trade Commissioner), the Hon. Dr. Kotewall, Mr. M. F. Key (Secretary of the Fair Committee) and Capt. Walter, A. D. C. to the Governor.\n\nThe Chairman was supported on the dais, on the right, by H.E. the Governor, the Chairman of the Kwangtung Provincial Government (Mr. Liu Yun-koy), H.B.M. Acting Consul-General (Mr. E. G. Jamieson, C.B.E.), Mr. J. A. Tonkin (representing the Department of Commerce of the Australian Commonwealth Government), Hon. Mr. J. P. Braga (Vice-Chairman and principal organiser of the Fair Committee). On the left were Lady Peel, the Mayor of Canton (Mr. Liu Chi-wen) and Mrs. Liu Chi-wen, Major V. E. Duclos (Canadian Trade Commissioner in Hong Kong), Mr. S. T. Williamson (Hon. Agent for New Zealand) Hon. Mr. R. H. Kotewall, C.M.G. (Vice-Chairman).\n\nOthers present included the General Officer Commanding, Major-General O. C. Borrett, C.B., C.M.G., D.S.O., C.B.E., and Mrs. Borrett, H. H. the Chief Justice and Mrs. J. R. Wood, representatives of the Consular Body, officials from Canton, the Commodore and Mrs. Marrack, members of the Executive Council, Government officials, members of the General Committee of the Fair, and exhibitors.\n\nA tableau, representing Britannia was staged behind the dais.\n\nWhen we found, however, that we were going to put up a show four or five times as large as before, covering an area of over an acre, we felt that we need not be quite so modest. Seeing that the Empire goods shown to-day are all intended for the great market of South China, we invited the Chairman of the Kwangtung Provincial Government, Mr. Lin Yun-Koy; the Mayor of Canton, Mr. Liu Chi-Wen and Mrs. Liu Chi-Wen; the Inspector-General for Foreign Affairs for Kwantung, Kwangsi, etc., Mr. Kan Chieh-Hou and Mrs. Kan Chieh-Hou; the Commissioner of Public Safety, General Ho Lok; the Counsellor to the 1st Group Army Headquarters, Colonel C. W. Leung, the Municipal Counsellor and Secretary to the Mayor, Dr. Wu Paak-Shing and Mrs. Wu Paak-Shing; the Secretary to the Chairman of the Kwantung Government, Mr. Chow Hok-Tong and the Secretary to the Commissioner of Public Safety, Mr. W. S. Lun, to accept our hospitality and be present here to-day.\n\nTherefore it is my privilege this morning, in the first place, to welcome His Excellency the Governor, who has taken the greatest interest in this project and who kindly promised some months ago to perform the Opening Ceremony. Secondly, as this is, I think, the first large gathering which Lady Peel has attended since her recent illness, I am sure you would wish me to express on your behalf our congratulations on her recovery and our pleasure that she is here to grace the occasion.\n\n**Canton Guests.**\n\nNext I wish to thank, in the name of the General Committee of the Empire Fair, the Chairman of the Kwangtung Provincial Government, the Mayor of Canton and the other distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen from Canton who have honoured us to-day by accepting our invitation to the Fair. We trust that what they see here will be of great interest to them and that their visit will further strengthen the friendly relations between South China and Hong Kong.\n\n**Mr. Paterson's Welcome.**\n\nAddressing the gathering, the Hon. Mr. J. J. Paterson said:- Your Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen: The first Empire Fair in Hong Kong, held a year ago, though it called for a great deal of work from organisers, was smaller than the Fair we present to you to-day. We made the Opening Ceremony a local affair. I believe His Majesty's Consul-General at Canton was the only visitor from the outside world.\n\nThe Kwangtung Provincial Government, the Mayor of Canton and the other distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen from Canton who have honoured us to-day by accepting our invitation to the Fair. We trust that what they see here will be of great interest to them and that their visit will further strengthen the friendly relations between South China and Hong Kong. As the Fair has so greatly outgrown the space which the Hotel Company has so generously placed at our disposal, I have to express my regret that it is impossible to provide seats for all who are present. The best amends I can make is to be brief. Let me therefore extend a cordial welcome to His Majesty's Acting Consul-General at Canton, Mr. Jamieson and to our local guests. In particular I wish to take this opportunity of expressing, in all sincerity, grateful thanks to the hundreds of workers and exhibitors for their support. I want also to thank Mr. Taggart and the Directors of the Hongkong & Shanghai Hotels Ltd., for their invaluable assistance, the general public for their attendance and to express the hope that \"dividend warrants will soon be ready\" in the shape of a large increase of British trade as the result of this Fair.\n\nI will now call upon Major V. E. Duclos, Canadian Trade Commissioner in Hong Kong, to read a message from the Hon. H. H. Stevens, Minister of the Department of Trade and Commerce of the Dominion of Canada.\n\n**CANADA'S MESSAGE.**\n\n**Minister's Greeting Read By Major Duclos.**\n\nMajor Duclos then read the following message from The Hon. H. H. Stevens, Minister, Department of Trade & Commerce, of the Canadian Government:\n\n| Page | Content |\n| --- | --- |\n| 10 | ... |\n| 11 | ... |\n\nPage 11",

Sir William Peel for the assistance of students coming to this country.  \n\nThe student's name is H. N. Chau, and he has been articled for five years to Messrs. Johnson Stokes and Master, Solicitors and Notaries Public, of Hongkong.  \n\nThe student intends to take the Hongkong examination for Solicitors. Owing to the absence of a Law School at Hongkong University he has found it necessary to come to this country to take a course of study. He hopes to be ready to sit for the examination in March, 1934, but there is always the possibility that he may not succeed at his first attempt. In order to avoid the great expense of going to Hongkong to take the examination, in which he may not be successful, he asks me to enquire whether it could be arranged for the papers to be sent over to this country and for him to sit for the examination in some place appointed by the authorities.  \n\nAs you may have had similar cases in the past I venture to enquire whether it would be possible for him to take the examination under Government supervision in this country.  \n\nI have the honour to be,  \nSir,  \nYour obedient servant,  \n\n...  \n\nPage 2  \n13822  \n2.  \n:  \n10  \n10",

        "content_text": "# THE SLAVE MARKET NEWS\n\n## Editorial Offices-Arcst Orchards, Sidmouth, England.\n\nTHE SLAVE MARKET NEWS.\n\nentitled \"Hong Kong Papers Relating to the Mui Tsai Question, Cmd. 8424.\" This can be obtained at the price of 1s. 8d. through any bookseller. It contains 77 papers of official information concerning the subject of slavery in Hong Kong,\n\n## WHAT WE THINK.\n\nLAN AE MOT (AGE 8 YEARS) SOLD IN HONG KONG FOR 380 DOLLARS.\n\n## THE COLONIAL OFFICE REPLY.\n\nA Member of Parliament has sent to us a letter which he has received from the Colonial Office concerning our last issue on the subject of Slavery in Hong Kong.\n\nWe feel it is due to our readers to publish the vital extracts of this communication sent by the Colonial Office, and to add such observations as we feel are warranted by the official information published in the White Paper, Cmd. 8424.\n\nThe reply to the Member referred to, contains the following sentences: \"The statement that slavery exists in Hong Kong is, of course, not true, and many of the other statements printed give a quite misleading impression of what the situation is and what effort has been, and is being made to improve conditions. It is impossible categorically to deny all the unfounded allegations made in this and similar irresponsible publications; but in correction of the regrettable statements made in the editorial as to the fate of the Mui Tsai in Hong Kong, I am to suggest a reference to the Report of the League of Nations Commission of Enquiry into Traffic in Women and Children in the East.\"\n\n## WHAT ABOUT THE WHITE PAPER?\n\nIt would appear that the Colonial Office forget that there has been published by H.M. Stationery Office a publication entitled \"Hong Kong Papers Relating to the Mui Tsai Question, Cmd. 8424.\" This contains communications from different Colonial Secretaries, reports of the Hong Kong Government Officials, and the record of the debate of the Hong Kong Legislative Council of December 28th, 1922.\n\nWe venture to think that any person interested in the subject who reads through the White Paper will come to the conclusion that the statement that slavery exists in Hong Kong was certainly true during the years 1922 and 1923, and that the onus of proof that slavery is now non-existent in this Crown Colony is upon the Colonial Office.\n\nWe have, from time to time, published the records of Police Court proceedings in Hong Kong, and in the current issue, we publish further extracts and reports from \"The South China Morning Post,\" which indicate that the Mui Tsai system still flourishes in Hong Kong, and is the very essence of slavery.\n\n## LORD PASSFIELD'S DESPATCH.\n\nIn the concluding despatch by Lord Passfield on August 22nd, 1929, addressed to the Governor of Hong Kong, he stated \"Whilst feeling bound by the traditional policy of this country, to regard any institution that savours of slavery, to take steps for the abolition of the Mui Tsai system, notwithstanding any opposition in the Colony, I need hardly remind you of the desirability of enlisting as far as possible Chinese opinion in favour of the change.\"\n\nIn the statement made by the Colonial Office in reply to a Member of Parliament, it is said \"It is impossible categorically to deny all the unfounded allegations made in this (i.e., The Slave Market News) and similar irresponsible publications.\" It would be enlightening if the Colonial Office could state quite clearly what are the \"unfounded allegations made in this Journal.\" We shall be pleased to deal with them on receiving information giving chapter and verse. We should also like to ask what is the precise meaning of the term \"irresponsible publication.\" To our knowledge, there is no other Anti-Slavery newspaper in existence. The Anti-Slavery Society publishes their most excellent Report of Anti-Slavery achievements every quarter. It is pertinent to ask what are the names of the \"irresponsible publications\" that are so tactfully referred to by the Colonial Office.\n\nThe Colonial Office also makes reference to \"the regrettable statements made in this editorial concerning the fate of the Mui Tsai in Hong Kong.\" We deal with the Report of the League of Nations Commission in another column, and would remind our readers that the decision of the Hong Kong Government made in December, 1931, to close the tolerated brothels in the Colony, was only made possible by the self-sacrificing efforts of public-minded women, who have urged its abolition for many years past.\n\n## JAN. 1934.\n\n## BROTHELS IN HONG KONG.\n\nMrs. G. H. Forster states in \"The Shield\" (November, 1933), concerning Hong Kong under Regulation, that \"Some 400 registered houses were kept constantly supplied with girls.\" We leave it to our readers to form their own opinions as to where these girls were obtained, and whether Hong Kong is an exception to the general rule, that where girls are liable to be bartered, they form the most ready recruits for these houses.\n\nWe understand that the Government has undertaken to abolish the tolerated brothels within three years from 1931.\n\nThe Colonial Office also states that \"The Government has abolished the servile status of Mui Tsai, and has prohibited the acquisition or introduction into the Colony of Mui Tsai.\" It is significant to note that apparently for the first time, the Colonial Office have now admitted that the status of Mui Tsai was a **SERVILE STATUS**, which in other words is slavery. We hope that note will be made of the ages of girls who in 1933 were produced in police court cases.\n\nA perusal of the Police Court proceedings should serve to show that the status is still \"servile\" and that it is quite a common thing for a nominal fine to be inflicted on the owner of a Mui Tsai, who is handed back again, in many cases, to the person who has made a money payment for the child. What, however, seems to us to be a most perturbing state of affairs, is that although the Colonial Office stated that the Government has prohibited the acquisition or introduction of Mui Tsai into the Colony, the system is still carried on.\n\n## WANTED AN ARMY OF INSPECTORS.\n\nWe should like to remind the Colonial Office and our readers of a Despatch from the Governor of Hong Kong to the Secretary of State for the Colonies, June 20th, 1922. In this, the Governor stated \"The daily ebb and flow of population across the frontiers of Hong Kong, both by land and water, estimated at between five and six thousand each way, and the constant movement of the population within the Colony, both to and from the island and the mainland, present difficulties which can hardly be exaggerated. An army of inspectors with the widest power of entry and search would be required to enforce registration and heavy expenditure would be incurred to little or no purpose.\" We are informed, however, by the Colonial Office that three inspectors have been appointed, and that these inspectors, \"two of whom are ladies, have shown that in general Mui Tsai are contented and well-treated by their employers.\" Thus three inspectors are now declared to be sufficient for the work which the Governor himself stated in 1922 would require an army of inspectors, with the widest power of entry and search.\n\nHere we have two irreconcilable official statements striking at the very root of the Mui Tsai system.\n\nHundreds of girls cannot even be traced, as shown in correspondence on our front page.\n\nIt is for our readers to decide who makes \"irresponsible statements.\"\n\nContinued on Page 7\n\n## JAN. 1934.\n\n## THE SLAVE MARKET NEWS.\n\n## Servitude of Little Children in Ceylon.\n\nWith the consent of the Secretary of State for the Colonies, there has been issued by the Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society, correspondence with the Government upon the \"adoption\" custom of Ceylon, which persons in responsible positions in that Colony have declared to be one of slavery, because the \"adopted child\" is often sold and sold over again.\n\nIt is now proposed to issue an Ordinance, under which these children shall be registered, and provision is made for inspection of the \"adopted\" children in public institutions, also some limits are proposed to the hours of labour.\n\nThe Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society has pointed out to Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister that this Ordinance makes no provision for the inspection of the conditions of \"adopted\" children generally, that under this Ordinance \"adopted\" children of seven years can be made to work without any limitation of their hours of labour during the week, and that even on Sundays, they may be made to work four hours.\n\nIn view of the nature of this Ordinance, and of the fact that the system leads to considerable cruelty, the Society appeals to Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister to secure substantial amendments to the Ordinance, pending abolition of the system.\n\n## CHILD PROTECTION IN CEYLON.\n\nThe fourth Annual Report of the Child Protection Society shows that cases of cruelty to children, neglect, and the abuses which arise from the so-called \"adoption\" for domestic service, still continue, in spite of the efforts of the Society. The report tells us that the work is progressing, but only slowly, and such progress has been in the direction of arousing healthy public opinion, towards which the attitude taken by magistrates, in condemning cases of cruelty, has assisted.\n\nUnfortunately, the membership of the Society has decreased, and according to the report of Mr. Valentine Perera, which is annexed to that of the Society, Child Protection will always remain an unsolved problem until a Children's Ordinance, of which a draft has been prepared and a copy sent to our Society, has become law, and Juvenile Courts have been established. The Ordinance, which is a simple one, has been carefully drafted and is being \"considered, reconsidered, altered and amended.\" It deals with the questions of adoption, employment, cruelty, orphanages and voluntary homes, juvenile offenders, certified schools, etc.\n\nWhile the number of cases of cruelty has hardly at all diminished, we are informed that the degree of cruelty appears to be declining. The number of social workers has increased, but more are required.\n\nMr. Perera deals with the aspect of cruelty cases. These still await effective reform, as do the cases in which boys are charged in police courts for minor offences, which are always punished by a caning inflicted in open court, after which no further trouble is taken with the offender. Mr. Perera dwells on the point and asks, \"What hope is there for child protection under such conditions?\" Children must, he maintains, be protected from birth until they reach at least the age of eighteen years.\n\nUntil orphanages, reformatories, children's homes, and certified schools are established, \"there can be no salvation for the childhood of this country.\"\n\nThe following letter has been addressed to the Colonial Office on behalf of the Society:\n\n6th November, 1933.\n\nThe Rt. Hon. Sir PHILIP CUNLIFFE-LISTER.\n\nOur Committee has had under consideration the system known as Adoption in Ceylon, and the draft Ordinance for dealing with this system.\n\nThe main purpose of the Ceylon system of Adoption is not benevolence, but is \"in nearly every case the payment of a lump sum of money for children\" for free domestic service.\n\nThe Mayor of Colombo, in 1929, in a public speech, referred to the system as one amounting to slavery. An Editorial in a Ceylon newspaper said \"the whole system is cruel and the practice amounts to nothing less than slavery.\" The same Editorial emphasized that these adopted children are treated as mere chattels by unscrupulous employers and are bought and sold and sold over again. The Editor-in-Chief of the Times of Ceylon, writing in the British Times of 24th February, 1930, said of adoption \"There is unquestionably what amounts to slavery of a terrible type.\"\n\nIt is quite clear that the conditions of this servitude do in fact violate the terms of the Anti-Slavery Convention of 1926. (See Lord Cecil's explanation of Article 2 of the Slavery Convention- League White Paper A, 104, 1926, VI)\n\nOur purpose, however, in approaching you is not that of indicting evil, but to solicit your sympathetic support for further amendments to the proposed Ordinance.\n\nWhile glad to note that the Ordinance proposes for a registration of all adopted children, we do not observe any provision for inspection other than that in Public Homes and Institutions. We therefore beg leave to urge that periodic inspection should be provided for either in the Ordinance or by some other administrative measure. We hold with the Child Protection Society (Ceylon) that \"After all, registration and inspection are a small return to make for free domestic service.\"\n\nWe have noted with concern that not only is the age limit at which adopted juveniles can be made to work seven years, but the Ordinance places no limit to the hours which such juveniles can be made to work, beyond the provision that they shall not on Sunday exceed four hours.\n\nIt is true that a Local Authority may make bye-laws limiting the hours of labour.\n\nWe cannot believe that His Majesty's Government will allow an Ordinance with these defects to be passed into law in the Colony of Ceylon without very considerable amendment.\n\nThere is incontrovertible evidence that the system leads to considerable cruelty, the direct result of this system of securing children by purchase for free labour.\n\nWe hope that the period of the continued existence of this system will be a short one, but that pending its early abolition, provision will be made for registration, inspection, the limiting of the hours of labour, and a raising of the age at which children can be made to labour.\n\nWe have, etc.,\n\nTRAFERS BUXTON, Hon Secretary\nJOHN HARRIS, Parliamentary Secretary.\n\n*See Quarterly Bulletin of the Child Protection Society of Ceylon, Vol 2, No 1, 1933, p2.\n\n## REPLY\n\nDowning Street,\n23rd November, 1933.\n\nI am directed by Secretary Sir Philip Cunliffe-Lister to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 6th November, 1933, on the subject of the custom of child adoption as practised in Ceylon.\n\nSir Philip Cunliffe-Lister has no reason to doubt that the Government of Ceylon is aware of the objections to the conditions under which children may be employed in that Island as domestic servants, and he has ascertained that the Executive Committee for Home Affairs of the Ceylon State Council has appointed a Sub-committee to go into the whole question of the employment of women and children and the system of adoption. It will be for the Executive Committee in the first instance to consider what action it is desirable to take on the Sub-committee's report when it is received.\n\nA copy of your letter will be sent to the Officer Administering the Government of Ceylon for his information, and for communication to the Executive Committee.\n\nI am, Sir,\nYour obedient servant,\n(Signed) H. R. COWELL.\n\n*From \"The Reporter\" of The Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society.\n\n## MEETING ON SLAVERY.\n\nAmong the more notable meetings being organized in celebration of the Centenary of Britain's decision to abolish Slavery, a Special Meeting to be held in Brighton on Friday evening, February 16th. The Dome has been secured for the purpose, and Sir John Simon has consented to address this gathering. Arrangements are being made to secure the co-operation of all the principal towns throughout the County. Further particulars will be published in due course. The demonstration is being organized jointly by the League of Nations Union and the Anti-Slavery Society.\n\n## THE SLAVE.\n\nOnce in this life his soul found joy\nToo deep for words to tell,\n\"He dwelt among his own people,\"\nAnd so far all was well!\nUntil the hand of cruel fate\nAt one fell stroke filled life with hate!\nAh no,\nNot hatred of his own.\nThey were his pride and care.\nBut of the foe that drove him forth\nIn misery and despair!\nA slave, a chattel on God's earth.\n'Twere better he had ne'er known birth!\nHome, wife, and children, he must leave,\nMay be see them no more,\nIn bitter bondage his days pass\nUpon a foreign shore!\nDespised, ill-used, and even slain\nBy traders in his flesh-for gain!\nShorn of all rights which manhood gives,\nTo live and be his best,\nThe charter of his freedom, too,\nDenied by Christ confessed.\nNo matter what his colour be,\nA child of God, no less is he.\nBy earth, by man, cast out and spurned,\nA helpless creature, he,\nBy \"might\" not \"right,\" enslaved and chained,\nWill none now set him free?\nLet such destroy the English mart,\nLest still in man, the Christ-wounds smart,\nMillions who once breathed freedom's air,\nWere raided, bought and sold,\nAnd died not in a noble cause.\nWhose wrongs were manifold!\nLet not the hour now strike in vain,\nThe slave's birthright give back again!\n\nTHE REV.

CROOK\n\nmethod the subject is treated there will be some readers who will want something different, some who will be disappointed that their particular pet hobby has not been sufficiently emphasised.\n\nMrs. Arber says her book was not logically planned but simply grew. Her own words are, she \"allowed the book to write itself.\" This of course, must not be taken as the equivalent of the schoolboy's well-known cloak of excuse, \"I didn't do it, Sir: it was my hand.\" The first few chapters all too short-give an account of the cereals, their putative homes, history, and relationships to their wild cousins. Considering that the whole of human existence and civilization is bound up with these cereals we are surprised that Mrs. Arber curtailed these chapters so much. Even at the expense of a book twice the size we need all the information we can get. One whole side of the question is shut out with the laconic words: \"An account of cereal geography would be outside the scope of this book.\"\n\nShe offers no pronounced opinion on the relative antiquity of wheat, barley, rice and maize as domesticated plants, though if botanists could assist in settling this question, or throw some light on it, they would thereby greatly aid the solution of the whole vexed question of the priority of civilization in Egypt, Mesopotamia, China, or Peru.\n\nMrs. Arber mentions the interesting fact that maize is the only cereal which may not lead a feral existence: \"it cannot propagate itself spontaneously, for the grain does not escape from the husks without help.” The most natural explanation of this fact would seem to be that the grain had been so long domesticated that it had lost the essential means of survival, whereas the other cereals were only on the way towards losing them. This of course is a supposition, but Mrs. Arber rather than assume it seems to prefer the derivation of the plant 'possibly by a process of hybridisation' from Teosinte (Euchlaena mexicana), the grass of nearest affinity to it in the New World. When Mrs. Arber says \"the grain does not escape from the husks without help\" we naturally wonder if there might not have been in days gone by, in the native home of the grain, a parrot or some such bird which might have been the effective ministrant. A plant like maize, which supplies en masse a proliferation of seed as in the corn-cob, could well afford to sacrifice 60% to 70% of each cob if it thereby got 5% to 10% disseminated. Some of the parrots can handle a cob with great dexterity. But if the Indians of America adopted this grain as their chief domestic plant they would naturally kill out this enemy to their food supply.\n\nOf the rice plant we are told that \"the earliest record we have of it is in old Chinese writings and it has been cultivated continuously in that country since the remote past.\" When Mrs. Arber wrote her book Mr. Andersson's \"Children of the Yellow Earth\" was only in the press. In this latter work (p. 336) in speaking of the fragments of a jar from the Yang Shao civilization Mr. Andersson says:----\n\nThe Hong Kong Naturalist.",

        "content_text": "Archaeological Finds on Lamma Island\n\n125\n\nWe\n\nBut the specimen in figure K has a more puzzling context and condition. It comes from Tai Wan, from a section not counted in the 1933 excavation. It is from a kind of pocket amid rocks to the east of the clump of vegetation and the (sacred) tree which stands on the rocky knoll. The ground there is no longer the pure sliding sands of the main site but beneath the humus is lightly cemented together with minerals brought down by moisture from the upper layers. The sandy mass is about five feet deep over the rocks in this, one day when I visited the site with Mr. Schofield and Drs. Brock and Lees the geologists, I found by my own digging a most interesting collection of objects. These may be set forth here quickly, for the whole group is in the nature of a test case on which we have fortunately some of the best judgments that the scientific world may give on certain points. The section was about five feet wide with a face standing firm and clean about six feet measured down from the surface: at about five feet heavy boulders began: above that it was a sand concreted slightly with lime: the levels here as distinct from the rest of the Tai Wan site admit of much wash-down from the background.\n\nFound \"Double-F\" pottery at 40 ins. as described in H.K.N. III, p. 245. Related ware of I.d. ii type at 49 ins. (cp. ib. pp. 232, 245). The \"Chou\" type of ware (white rough developed from corded ware with bronze influence on pattern), illustrated in H.K.N. IV, Plate XIV, No. 6, p. 64: this was at about 50 ins. At the same level and quite close, four pieces of bronze of uncertain use, very corroded so that they were cracked as if made of perished leather: Mr. Simpson suggests that one piece with a curved point (like the nail-extractor on the old-fashioned Sheffield combination pocket-knives or, the Chinese so-called \"knot-openers\") may be a tool for trimming a clay mould before casting bronze: two pieces might possibly be bits of a runner from a mould: the other two are of about the thickness of an ordinary pencil but almost square in section: one surface is very flat being probably the top level of the liquid metal: they seem originally to have made one stick about 80 mm. in length of which the curved tip comes to a scraping edge. Close by these was a bronze coin of the usual cash type, obviously of an old date: it is so worn that it is not worth reproducing: the British Museum Coin Room to whom it was submitted gave as their opinion of its date:-\"PROBABLY c. I CENTURY A.D.\" The coin was not contained in any object and thus we have the alternative of dating the rest by the contiguity of the coin (later than the coin?) or else of regarding the coin as a later intruder: the second solution is suggested by quite modern coins which here and there were found well below the surface in other parts of the site. Further, close to the bronzes were two pottery \"beads\" or, more probably, spindle whorls these are of rough pottery with a vague design of small holes arranged in horizontal zones: one end (polar) of each specimen has been cut into, in one case seemingly by a regular curved object. These things look very primitive, but Professor Beyer has found pieces of very similar type in one of his Early Iron Age sites on Luzon. A neighbouring part of Tai Wan gave very much better finished specimens of the same kind of object (but without decoration) from a corresponding level (about 4 feet).\n\nJuly 1935.\n\n56",

No, Japan, you can \"fool all of the people some of the time\" but even those who are not aware of the brazen falsehoods spread by the Japanese propagandists in their effort to win some sympathy from the civilised world in their undeclared war against China, feel constrained to express indignation at the latest effort by their Navy Department, namely their plea of innocence in regard to the bombing, by Navy planes, of open towns and cities which resulted, as we already know, in the deaths of thousands of civilians.\n\nWe are indignant because it is such an insult to our intelligence for the Navy Department at Tokyo even to hope, for a moment, that we would swallow every statement they make. The Japanese naval authorities strongly resent the criticism levelled by some Powers and the League Advisory Committee against the air raids, contending that these criticisms are not based on sure ground. Fools in the world refuse to be fooled all of the time, in spite of the fact that your Navy Department \"hopes that the outside world will place confidence in the good faith of the Japanese Navy and show itself proof against reports of this kind.\"\n\nWhile the powers-that-be in Tokyo are busy, dividing their time between sending troops to North China, devising 'more effective' ways and means of subduing a nation that is fighting gallantly to protect its territorial sovereignty, and denying \"malicious reports,\" Japanese propagandists are less busy trying to \"take in\" the world with their cunningly worded statements. For instance, one went so far as to say that \"in raiding their objectives Japanese planes dive low, and in the face of heavy anti-aircraft fire, in order to ensure that their bombs hit their marks and nothing else.\" The reply to this is, if the Japanese planes did fly low at all, the purpose was to make doubly certain that their bombs and machine-guns would miss nothing, not even innocent civilians, women, and children.\n\nReports and photographs published in our columns during the past few weeks, all obtained from authentic sources, showed what havoc amongst the civilians these air raids had wrought in other open cities. Thousands have been rendered homeless as the direct result of these unprovoked and barbarous assaults on a defenceless people, and yet the Navy Department in Tokyo has the brazen effrontery to protest against the criticism made against the despicable methods adopted by their air force.\n\nThe Japanese sea lords then go one better. They have formally and emphatically denied the report in the foreign Press to the effect that many Chinese fishing boats were recently sunk by Japanese submarines in South China waters. How can this be when the Japanese Navy is constantly under orders not to attack defenceless craft? It is a protest that is so vigorous and so persistent that it is calculated to inspire nothing more helpful to Japan than resentment and suspicion.\n\n## THE DRUG TRAFFIC\n\nThose sections of the Report of the Fifth Committee of the League of Nations on the traffic in narcotics, laid before the Assembly at the end of September, which deal with the clandestine production of opium and similar drugs, make highly disagreeable reading for all Governments which are alive to the dangers of the illicit importation of great quantities of cheap narcotics from what are now the chief centres of their production. These centres, beyond any question, are Manchukuo and those parts of Northern China where Chinese authority had been undermined by the Japanese before the outbreak of hostilities.\n\nThe drugs are manufactured in the Japanese concession in Mukden and in Dairen but bear marks of Chinese origin. The Japanese laws do not allow the export of drugs from or through Japan or Korea; those therefore which are exported to America, Europe, and other regions are shipped nominally from Chinese ports.\n\nThe danger to other countries if this vast production of narcotics is allowed to continue unchecked need hardly be emphasized, and an offensive on a large scale is required unless the good work of the League of Nations is to be undone and the world is to be poisoned.\n\nThe contrast between the attitude of China and Japan towards the sale of narcotics is remarkable. In most provinces, China is taking drastic measures, even including the death penalty, against the vendors of opium, and there have been cases of the execution of addicts. In Manchukuo, on the contrary, the traffic in drugs is an open business, conducted under the auspices of the Government's opium monopoly. In Northern China, Tientsin has been the centre of a vast distributive trade conducted under Japanese official protection.\n\nThe comparison speaks for itself. All that need be said here is that it is disquieting to learn that a nation which still professes its desire to regenerate the Far East by its example should be so blind to the moral and physical damage which is being wrought under its aegis.\n\nThe Chinese, whether of Northern China or of Manchukuo, have been and still are the principal sufferers from this deplorable state of affairs. But there are limits to their absorptive capacity, for the drug habit sooner or later impoverishes its victims and a large-scale production of narcotics requires an expanding market. Here lies the danger to other countries. And here too lies a new danger to the prestige of Japan, which has already been gravely impaired by the ruthless violence of its militarists. No Government, however powerful, can afford to incur the suspicion that it encourages the development of the most disreputable of industries on an unprecedented scale.\n\n(Continued from page 606)\n\n## DONATIONS\n\nThe Director of Ambulance has the honour to acknowledge with grateful appreciation and thanks the receipt of the following donations:\n- $100.00 from Messrs.

Mr. Stanley Dollar, a typical American university graduate, is on a round trip in the President Hoover which leaves Hong Kong to-day for the United States. He is a member of the Dollar Steamship Lines and does not intend to go in for politics. Ships, shipping, and the sea is in his blood, he says.\n\nMr. Dollar discussed the situation as affecting the United States quite freely. There was no doubt, he said, that trade was hit, and shipping even worse, by the Sino-Japanese hostilities and there was a rising tide of sympathy with the Chinese people all over America.\n\n\"But the American people,\" he continued, \"are, as a nation, totally against war so far as America is concerned, and I do not think they will take any sides in this war.\"\n\n### UNTIL OTHERS DRAGGED IN\n\nAs an afterthought, however, Mr. Dollar added these significant words: \"At any rate not unless and until others have been drawn into it.\"\n\n\"But do you not think a policy of isolationism is quite incompatible with the present order of things in this world? Aviation, wireless telephony, and other modern inventions—what one might call twentieth century progress—have made the world so much smaller that the nations are so inter-dependent and inter-connected that it has surely become impossible for any one of them to be disinterested in the others, at any rate among the great powers?\" asked the pressman.\n\n\"America will stay out of trouble and do her very utmost to prevent trouble elsewhere as long as she can,\" replied Mr. Dollar, \"but if anybody expects her to rush into this Far Eastern trouble as an active participant he is mistaken. The Americans feel they had enough of war the last time and they will not be dragged into another one easily. They are a peace-loving people and the great masses of the United States do not know and do not, I dare say, care to delve into the intricacies of international politics. But, of course, they are a very emotional people.\"\n\n### AMERICA NOT BOUND\n\nAs an example of this line of thought Mr. Dollar cited President Roosevelt's famous Chicago speech and said that the speech had not by any means created a favourable impression in the United States in so far as it tended to convey the impression abroad that America was committed to any line of action. On this score, it had been very strenuously criticised in the United States.\n\nWith regard to conditions in the United States, Mr. Dollar said there had been a distinct decline in trade of recent months but the country was certainly sharing in the general prosperity since the inception of the arms race a few years ago.\n\nOpinion in America, he thought, while being against war, was fully alive to the necessity of being adequately armed, in a world armed to the teeth, purely for defensive purposes. To this extent, the navy appropriations, huge as they have been, had not met with very great opposition, but it was not to be expected that America would go all out to create a record in the armaments race.",

        "content_text": "# THE HONG KONG WEEKLY PRESS & \n## October 29, 1937\n### AMAZING PROGRESS IN SIX YEARS\n#### What Sino-Japanese War Has Meant To China\n\nSomething of China's amazing progress during the past few years was discussed by Mr. Walter Han-ming Chen, the well-known Chinese journalist and publicist when he spoke to Hong Kong students at the Hong Kong University on Oct. 19 on \"Present-day China.\"\n\nAs you know, China, since the overthrow of the Manchus 26 years ago, was for more than two decades divided and nobody was able to bring about unification in our country. Military leaders and political chieftains were jealous of each other; they fought for power and self-aggrandizement. Communists battled against the central government.\n\nBanditry was rife. Then came the Japanese, who forcibly occupied our Three Eastern Provinces, where they set up a puppet state which they called Manchukuo. Then they pushed further southward into north China and there, aided by traitors, they established a so-called autonomous regime, which permitted widespread smuggling and the poisoning of our unfortunate people, through the sale of opium, morphine, and other dangerous drugs.\n\nAfter that, they occupied Peiping, Tientsin, and other places in north China, and started warfare in Shanghai and other places along the Peiping-Hankow and the Tientsin-Pukow Railways, where at present our brave soldiers and airmen are putting up a glorious battle for the honour and existence of our country. Such a state of affairs, everybody will agree, could not be tolerated.\n\nChina had to have a leader who was capable of uniting the country and resisting invasion. We had to find a leader, who was a real and sincere patriot, who would command the people's confidence. Heaven gave us General Chiang Kai-shek, the only man who is able to save China and lead our national army in defence of our country. With his New Life Movement, the Generalissimo has succeeded, where others had failed, in uniting our ancestral land and is, as you know, personally directing the resistance against those who are trying to dominate and conquer our country.\n\n### REAL UNITY\n\nMany people have questioned me as to whether our unity is real. I can assure you that, beyond a shadow of doubt, it is. China is now more united than she has been for years past. Never before, indeed, have we Chinese been so united and never before have the people and their leaders shown such spirit of co-operation.\n\nIt has constantly been claimed that China is weak and not united and that it is unsafe and dangerous to live in our country, but we have shown, during the past few months, that we are far from being weak and that we are a really unified country. As to the allegation that China is a dangerous place to live in, you may be interested to know that nowadays, with the exception of the territories occupied by the Japanese, people may come and go about and live in China in perfect safety.\n\nIn former days, one would never have dared to make such a statement, but to-day things are different and we seldom read in the press of civil warfare, communist activities, banditry, or kidnappings - depredations which have been nearly wiped out - such as we used to read about almost every day in the past.\n\n### AMAZING PROGRESS\n\nThe really startling thing about China to-day is the amazing progress which has been taking place throughout the country. The era of civil war and banditry, as I have already said, is ended. Both the will of the people and the policy of the National Government are united in harmonising and composing all differences through peaceful means.\n\nEverywhere, there is a widespread recognition of the fact that, with the solution of the economic problem, the political problem would automatically be solved. For this reason, our government has been bending all its energies towards giving the people an efficient, honest, and progressive administration.\n\nWe do claim to have made considerable progress in this direction. We must give the Chinese Government time to wipe the slate clean. We must be patient and not expect too much at once. We must be fair and just to her friends.\n\n### NEW LIFE MOVEMENT\n\nThe New Life Movement is deeply concerned with the character that goes to make a nation and with developing that character. Without men and women of character, there can be no unified state. When men allow personal ambition, greed, selfishness, and vanity to dominate their political theories and acts, we are immediately plunged into civil war. The New Life Movement has done a considerable amount of work and it would take hours to tell of the progress which it has already made, and the reforms which it has brought about in China.\n\nIn addition to character building, the New Life Movement stresses the responsibilities of citizenship. Ambitious men may intrigue to invade neighbouring provinces but, as citizens more and more are voicing their opinions and insisting upon unification, this breaking of national unity has become exceedingly difficult. He is a foolhardy man indeed who to-day disregards this growing and formidable public opinion. There is national unity in China because the people demand it. National reforms are being brought about because the people demand them.\n\n### AFTER THE WAR\n\nNow that unity has been restored, the Nanking authorities will, when the present Sino-Japanese hostilities are ended, and eventual victory is won by China, turn their eyes to education and communications, after which I understand, steps will be taken towards raising the standard of living of the people.\n\nThe growth of the modern school system throughout China has been phenomenal. Everywhere in the interior, we see children and adults with their books coming and going. The fact is that the vast majority of the people are not informed on many matters that concern their everyday life, and ignorance and superstition still influence them to an alarming extent.\n\nNow, I am happy to say, education has come to China and it has come to stay. It is growing rapidly and thousands of cheap and efficient schools are being opened, or have been opened in the different provinces. Madame Chiang Kai-shek has opened a number of schools, and is mothering several hundred students in schools for the children of the revolution and recommends this form of social service to her friends.\n\n### EDUCATION FORGING AHEAD\n\nI have mentioned a cheap and efficient system of education. Between 600 and 1,000 of the most used characters in the Chinese written language have been chosen and those who know these have a useful everyday grasp of their use. Cheap books have been printed and supplied to the different schools, free of cost. Paper and ink are distributed gratis to the students.\n\nTeachers who have finished their middle and normal school education are selected and given a small salary, just enough to live on. In many places, temples and other buildings are borrowed and used as school buildings.\n\nIn many cases, there are blackboards but no desks or stools. Sometimes students are to be seen sitting on the ground, using their knees as their desks, and writing as best they can on them. Nevertheless, in spite of their difficulties, they learn and, at the end of their day's work, they are told to go home and teach their parents and elders, which they generally do, and this has amazing results.\n\nApart from the classes for the children, there are classes for adults, which are generally held in the early mornings or at dusk or after, so as to permit these people to attend their fields and other duties during the day.\n\n### COMPULSORY CLASSES\n\nIn the cities, we have a system of compulsory education for servants, shop assistants, and others who have not attended school. These are conducted along the mass education system and already thousands have been educated in this way. Agents of the government are sent regularly to the different shops and homes and they register all those who are uneducated. Notices are sent and tell the uneducated to attend classes at selected places, generally early in the morning or in the evening. Should they fail to attend classes, both they and their employers are fined.\n\n### MILITARY TRAINING\n\nNow we come to the compulsory citizens' military training. Every citizen over the age of 18 and under the age of 45 is expected to serve a term with the colours. There are many who do not like to serve and who try to evade military service, but the government has, nevertheless, ordered that they should undergo a period of training ranging from three to six months, failing which they are punished.\n\nI have seen classes in which business magnates have stood shoulder to shoulder with shop assistants or other employees. All these undergo strict and rigorous training and are subjected to military law. Even girls are called upon to serve and those unable to carry rifles are put through courses of first aid and nursing.\n\nAt the time I left Shanghai, before the outbreak of hostilities on August 13, one of the girls undergoing military training was my daughter and another was the daughter of Mr. O. K. Yui, Mayor of Shanghai, who is prominently in the news nowadays and who has refused to use his influence to enable his daughter to escape her national responsibilities. As a result, thousands have been turned into efficient citizens with military training.\n\n### EXAMINATION FOR OFFICIALS\n\nIn the political sphere, the financial administration has been centralised, our national budget has been balanced, and the tax system has been reformed, so that, since the advent of the National Government, some local taxes have been abolished. Some of these former taxes, levied by warlords, had been collected 89 years in advance!\n\nOfficials high and low are being subjected to severe civil examination and those found unqualified are being removed from office, irrespective of the influence of friends.\n\nThousands of miles of fine new highways have been built since 1927 when the National Government came into power. These are to be found in every province, and it is now possible for one to travel from the leading coastal cities to formerly inaccessible places, by motor car.\n\nMany miles of new railways also have been constructed and the Canton-Hankow Railway has been completed while the Lunghai Line has been extended.\n\nA network of telephone wires permits persons in Shanghai, Nanking, and Canton, for instance, to converse with others in places thousands of miles away.\n\n### AERIAL SERVICES\n\nThen, of course, there are the efficient airway services, the planes of which carry passengers to such inland places as Kuming (Yunnan), Sian, and Chengtu in a few hours, whereas it used to take weeks and months to make the trips in former times. Unfortunately, these services have temporarily been suspended as a result of the Sino-Japanese war.\n\n## BANKING CORPORATION\n\n|  |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| **AUTHORISED CAPITAL** | $50,000,000 |\n| **ISSUED AND FULLY PAID-UP** | $20,000,000 |\n| **RESERVE FUNDS** |  |\n|   STERLING | £6,500,000 |\n|   HONG KONG CURRENCY RESERVE | $10,000,000 |\n| **RESERVE LIABILITY OF PROPRIETORS** | $20,000,000 |\n\n**HEAD OFFICE:** HONG KONG\n\n**BOARD OF DIRECTORS:**\n- G.

        "content_text": "# THE HONG KONG WEEKLY PRESS & \n## October 29, 1937\n### AMERICA'S NEW CHINA CORONER POLICY ANALYSED\n\n#### Chinese Opinion \n##### Opinion On The Change\n\n(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT)  \nCANTON, OCTOBER 21.\n\nIN VIEW OF AMERICA'S SUDDEN SWITCH IN FAR EASTERN POLICY AS A RESULT OF PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S SPEECH, THE WRITER MADE A CANVASS OF CHINESE OPINION WHICH SHOULD BE OF INTEREST.\n\nA leading Chinese official declared that President Roosevelt's clarion call to the nations of the world to \"make a concerted effort to uphold the laws and principles upon which alone peace can rest secure,\" showed that he is a real friend of China, and also that the school of opinion in the United States which was advocating isolationism at whatever cost was beginning to realize that if the bombings of open towns and massacre of non-combatants continued unchecked, America may not be so safe after all.\n\nAnother Chinese official thought that the first gesture of withdrawal from China was only a feeler to test the real sentiments of the American people on the policy to adopt toward Japan's aggression on an unoffending neighbour. The American wave of protests from citizens in China convinced the State Department that any withdrawal would be highly detrimental to American interests, and so President Roosevelt made his speech in Chicago.\n\n#### READY TO CO-OPERATE\nThe consensus of opinion in official, business, and educational circles in Canton is that the United States and Great Britain had now reached the stage where they were ready to co-operate in the Far East. High hopes were, therefore, entertained over the forthcoming Nine Power Conference at Brussels. \"The Chungshan Daily News\" declared in an editorial that \"the United States and China shared a common responsibility in maintaining the sanctity of international treaties and their mutual co-operation would help to stabilize the balance of power in the Pacific area and restore peace in the Far East.\"\n\nIn view of this consistent friendship, the paper continues, \"the two countries cherish a common ideal and should check the onward march of the violator of world peace in order to realize their common aim. The United States has, of course, perfect freedom of independent action in her handling of international problems, but so far as treaty obligations are concerned, such freedom ought to be limited to a certain extent. It must not be forgotten that the Nine-Power Treaty, the Briand-Kellogg Pact, and the Covenant of the League of Nations were enacted with a definite purpose by the statesmen of the world.\"\n\n\"To solve the problem of international conflicts, Mr. Cordell Hull emphasizes the need of securing peace and calls our attention to it. While we appreciate his desire for peace, it seems that his 14-point proposal is passive in nature, and although it is reported that forty-four states have already adhered to it in principle, they have not yet taken any practical steps to realize this high ideal,\" the paper continues.\n\n#### THE ONLY STEP\nThe paper then says that \"in the face of Japanese armed aggression, China is taking the only appropriate steps in the defence of her territorial sovereignty. It is hoped that President Roosevelt will lend his active support on the side of right and justice, especially when he says that 'America actively engages in the search for peace.'\"\n\n\"The Canton Gazette\" holds the opinion that \"unaided, the United States will not be able to enforce her Monroe Doctrine. She who would leave others alone in their time of need would meet the same fate herself, and there is no reason why any of the Central or South American states should not be the property of one who needed it and had the power to take it.\"\n\nThe journal goes on with an exposition of Britain's difficult role, but adds that the aid of France and Soviet Russia \"is more powerful than any combination that has been or can be made East or West. When necessary, the three can offer sufficient inducements for the United States to throw her weight on their side. Besides, isolationism is no longer possible or practical. Hungry eyes are cast on Central and South America.\"\n\n### PRAISES POLICE\n#### Fine Work In Typhoon Fire\n\nStrong commendatory remarks on the work done by the police and the Fire Brigade in the West Point fire which broke out during the height of the typhoon on September 2, were made by Mr. W. Schofield, Senior Magistrate, at the Central Magistracy on Oct. 20.\n\nMr. Schofield was sitting Coroner at an inquiry held into the circumstances surrounding the death of Tong Cheung, a 76-year-old man residing in a house in Connaught Road West, one of the premises involved in the fire. Assisting him was a jury comprising Messrs. M. Nemazee (foreman), M. V. Neves, and A. J. Hussain.\n\nMr. Schofield said \"The behaviour of the police and the Fire Brigade seems to me to have been most admirable in every way. They were working under difficulties the like of which I have never heard of outside war-time.\"\n\nWithout retiring, the jury returned a verdict of death by misadventure, and the foreman added they did not desire to record a rider.\n\nThe Coroner expressed his sympathy with the relatives of the deceased.\n\n### NAVAL ESCORTS FOR NEW GOVERNOR\nWhen His Excellency the new Governor, Sir Geoffrey Northcote, and Lady Northcote arrive in the Colony on October 28 by the P. and O. liner s.s. Ranchi, the Royal Navy will provide an escort of two Destroyers in H.M.S. Duchess and H.M.S. Thracian, while H.M. Aircraft Carrier Eagle will provide an air escort.\n\nAll His Majesty's warships in harbour and Royal Fleet Auxiliary vessels will be dressed overall.\n\n## CHINA OVERLAND TRADE REPORT\n\n### JUNK-SINKING INQUIRY\n#### SURVIVORS TELL OF ALLEGED JAPANESE SAVAGERY ON HIGH SEAS\n##### FISHING JUNKS SINK IN FULL SIGHT OF MERCILESS ATTACKERS\n\nGraphic descriptions of the merciless sinking of a fleet of fishing junks by a submarine, the crew of which were described by one witness as Japanese, were given by survivors at the Supreme Court on Oct. 18 when the \"Junk-sinking Inquiry\" commenced. The inquiry is being conducted by a Government-appointed Commission comprising His Honour the Chief Justice, Sir Atho. MacGregor, the Harbour Master, the Hon. Commander J. B. Newill, and Mr. Justice J. A. Fraser.\n\nMr. J. C. McDouall is acting as Secretary to the Commission. According to the witnesses, the submarine, which came upon the junks near the Che Long lighthouse on September 22, went up to them one by one and systematically sank them.\n\nAt the outset of the proceedings, Mr. John Whyatt, Assistant Attorney-General, who is assisting the Commission in the marshalling of evidence, said:\n\n\"May it please you, Sir:-I have been asked to appear before the Commission during this enquiry for the purpose of assisting you, as far as I am able, in the task which has been entrusted to you under your terms of reference by His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government of the Colony of Hong Kong.\n\n\"It will be necessary, in order that the true facts relating to the sinking of these fishing junks may be established, that you should have before you witnesses who can give sworn evidence of the material circumstances, and the object of my presence at this inquiry is to call before the Commission all the witnesses who are available whose evidence can be of assistance to the Commission in arriving at its conclusions.\n\n\"I desire to say that in calling this evidence, I shall observe strictly the ordinary rules of evidence, and in no circumstances will any evidence be tendered or any questions be asked which would not be admissible in proceedings conducted in accordance with the practice which prevails in a British Court of Justice.\"\n\n#### ORAL TESTIMONY\n\"I do not propose, before calling the witnesses, to make any comments or to outline in detail the evidence which they will give, because I think it is desirable in an Inquiry of this kind that the material to be placed before the Commission for its consideration should be limited strictly to the oral testimony of the witnesses themselves. It will be sufficient, I think, for your purposes, if I indicate to you as briefly as possible the various classes of witnesses who will be called and the nature of the evidence they will give concerning the matters relevant to this inquiry.\n\n\"In the first place, I shall call before you a number of eye-witnesses who were present on board the fishing junks that we are concerned with, who will describe to you the circumstances in which these vessels were sunk. Altogether, ten fishing junks were sunk, and although many lives were lost, there were fortunately a considerable number of survivors, and of these, fourteen are at present in this Colony and will be called to give evidence. Their evidence will be supplemented to some extent by an officer from the British steamship `Kaying` which picked up some of the survivors. Other survivors were picked up by the German liner `Scharnhorst`, but as she has already sailed for Europe and will not call at the port of Hong Kong again until she returns to the Far East in two months' time, I regret to say it will not be possible to call witnesses from the `Scharnhorst` at this inquiry to tell you what they know concerning this matter.\"\n\n#### EXPERT WITNESS\n\"In addition to the evidence of eye-witnesses, I shall call medical evidence from the Queen Mary Hospital and the Kwong Wah Hospital. The witnesses from these hospitals will be doctors who attended to those survivors who required medical attention when they arrived in Hong Kong, and they will describe to you what they found when they examined these men after their admission to hospital. These witnesses, in addition to giving oral evidence, will produce as exhibits a splinter of metal and a copper bullet which have been removed from the bodies of two of the survivors, and also an X-ray photograph which was taken before an operation was performed on one of these men.\n\n\"I shall also call evidence from the Royal Observatory at Hong Kong as to weather conditions that prevailed on the relevant dates in the vicinity of the place where the junks were sunk. And lastly, I shall call a naval officer who will give evidence as an expert on the question of the distinguishing marks which are carried by certain naval craft with which he is familiar.\"\n\n\"I think perhaps I have now said sufficient in this brief summary to indicate to you the nature of the evidence I intend to put before you, and with your leave, I will now proceed to call the witnesses.\"\n\n#### CONSUL NOT ATTENDING\nMr. Whyatt had also intimated that the Japanese Consul had been informed of the inquiry, and correspondence had been exchanged, the last communication from that office having been received that morning. This stated that the Japanese Consul would not be attending the inquiry, nor would he be represented. The Portuguese Consul had also been informed, as Macao had been mentioned as the home port or port of registry of one or more of the Junks. He was present in Court but desired to take no active part in the proceedings. Messrs. Butterfeld and Swire and the Norddeutscher Lloyd wished to have nothing to do with the inquiry.\n\n### FOR THE POOR\nThe Society of St. Vincent de Paul acknowledges with grateful appreciation and thanks the receipt of the following donations and gifts to the Fete on November 7, 1937.\n\n| Donor | Amount/Donation |\n| --- | --- |\n| Mr. W.

        "content_text": "# Copy of letter received from the Foreign Office:-\n\n9th September, 1937.\n\n\"Dear Mr. Gull,\n\nWe have received a telegram from Mr. Cowan at His Majesty's Embassy at Peking reporting that there is a great deal of misery and suffering among Chinese wounded and refugees in Peking. The situation, which is difficult already, will, he anticipates, become extremely serious when the weather turns colder and food supplies such as maize and vegetables are unobtainable.\n\nHe asks whether it would be possible to obtain funds from some of the philanthropic British visitors or former residents or from those who have some connexion with North China. He gives an assurance that any funds obtained would be administered with the utmost care.\n\nAt the moment, help is being given by an international committee of women with which Mrs. Cowan, as president of the British Women's League in Peking, is associated, but the funds at their disposal are modest. As far as possible, local relief work is being entrusted to organisations such as the Salvation Army, which have a highly respected reputation of long standing.\n\nOne of the schemes which the committee would like to carry out is to provide a shelter for soldiers discharged from hospital, who, under present conditions, cannot return to their homes in the country: a shelter for 500 such men would cost 1,300 dollars monthly.\n\nMr. Cowan suggests that some organisation might be formed in England to provide a fund from which the Peking Committee could draw. The money could be paid into the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank in London and that bank requested to inform its Peking agent that it could be drawn on at the signed request of certain members of the Peking committee.\n\nI should be very grateful if you could let me know whether the China Association feel able to make any suggestion as regards the best method of raising funds for the purposes Mr. Cowan has in mind.\n\nYours very truly,\n\n**(Sgd) N.B.

        "content_text": "# P (1) A.R.P.\n\n# REPORT ON AIR RAID PRECAUTIONS FOR 1938.\n\n1. The Air Raid Precautions Sub-committee—a branch of the Local Defence Committee—held meetings throughout the year. Mr. W. R. Scott was chairman. On the arrival of the Air Raid Precautions Officer, the chairmanship was taken over by Wing Commander A.H.S. Steele-Perkins.\n\n2. Wing Commander Steele-Perkins was appointed Air Raid Precautions Officer on 20th January, 1938, and arrived in the Colony on 16th March, 1938.\n\n## I. Volunteers.\n\nThe basis of the work of the Air Raid Precautions Officer during the year was the preparation of a local A.R.P. scheme and the enrolment of volunteers. The number of those who volunteered for instruction or service was small at the beginning but increased as the active work and propaganda of the department attracted the public's attention. The present position may be regarded as satisfactory provided that the rate of progress in enlistment can be maintained.\n\n## II. Propaganda and Advice to the Public.\n\nSeveral broadcast talks on A.R.P. have been given throughout the year. The demand for A.R.P. Handbooks increased during the year. Copies were distributed to volunteers. The handbooks are also on sale to the public, both in English and Chinese language.\n\n3. Arrangements for an exhibition of A.R.P. paraphernalia at the University unfortunately had to be cancelled owing to the extreme pressure of work in other directions. It was possible, however, to hold an exhibition in the Union Church Hall, Hong Kong, which was attended by His Excellency the Governor and Lady Northcote.\n\n4. An A.R.P. Exhibition was given by the Women's Air Raid Precautions Union on August 11th and 12th at the Union Church, Kennedy Road, and was also attended by His Excellency the Governor and Lady Northcote.\n\n## III. Instruction and Training.\n\n1. Public lectures on Air Raid Precautions started in December, 1937, at the China Fleet Club and continued until February 1938.\n\n2. Lectures and preliminary training to members of St. John Ambulance Brigade and of the Police Reserve were given by Mr. Chak Tai Kwong, and by S.T. (R.) Dunlop (who had attended the Anti-gas School at Falfield, England).\n\n3. The Air Raid Precautions Officer, after his arrival, started a series of lectures and instruction which has been ever since gathering momentum, so that some 12,000 people have attended them to the time of writing this report; and it is estimated the average number of courses running daily is 5. Now have trained squads of A.R.P. personnel. Trained instructors number eighteen. All important business firms...\n\n4. Preliminary plans for the erection of an Air Raid Precautions Training School were considered during the year.\n\n## IV. Wardens.\n\n1. An A.R.P. Wardens' Main Committee was appointed in May, under the chairmanship of Mr. Pentreath, the members of the committee consisting of some of the well-known residents living in the Colony.\n\nPage 2\n\n2. The A.R.P. Wardens' Sub-committee was given the task of organizing Air Raid Wardens and Posts in each Police division of Hong Kong and Kowloon.\n\n3. The Warden Posts were fixed at the ratio of one to every 100 houses: each post to consist of three (two men and one woman) who would work on a two-shift basis during an emergency.\n\n4. Twenty-two District Sub-committees have now been formed. Some advance has been made in finding suitable Warden Posts and enrolling the necessary number of Wardens, but the rate of progress is necessarily slow. It is necessary to establish approximately 1,600 posts making a total recruitment of 9,000 men and women, each of whom is expected to attend a course of fifteen lectures and to pass an examination.\n\n## V. Women Air Raid Precautions Union.\n\n1. The Women's Air Raid Precautions Union was formed in May under the chairmanship of Mrs. Steele-Perkins. Lady Northcote consented to be president. The object of the Union is to teach simple air raid precautions and elementary first aid to as many ladies of the Colony as possible to enable them to put this information into practice in their own homes should an emergency ever arise.\n\n2. The A.R.P. lectures organized by this Union were held in the various women's clubs, European and Chinese, and were very well attended.\n\n3. An advanced course in A.R.P. services especially suitable to women was also instituted.\n\n## VI. Decontamination.\n\nSquads numbering seven persons apiece were organized in this work, and eighteen squads have already been trained. A total of forty squads is considered necessary.\n\n## GENERAL.\n\nOther activities included—\n\n1. Plans for safeguarding vital services.\n\n2. Provision of respirators and protective clothing for essential services.\n\n3. Provision of stores and equipment for A.R.P. Services.\n\n4. The formation of Rescue, Road Repair and Demolition Parties and the provision of equipment.\n\n5. The provision of additional equipment and plans for the formation of an auxiliary Fire Brigade Service.\n\n6. Cooperation with the Hon. D.M.S. and the Director of St. John Ambulance Brigade and Association, the formation of plans for the Medical Services.\n\n7. Plans for the provision of an A.R.P. store.\n\n## VII. Blackouts.\n\n1. A blackout was held on February 20th.\n\n2. A surprise blackout to discover the extent to which the public had been educated in air raid precautions was held in September. For the purpose of the exercise, it was announced that a \"precautionary period\" of seven days commencing on September 1st would be followed by an \"air raid warning period\" on September 8th at 8.30 p.m. to continue for 72 hours. During this period, the air raid warning signal was sounded.\n\n3. A series of blackout exercises were made during the combined manoeuvres—November 21st to 28th—to test the air raid precautions. The first was from 9.15 p.m. to 11.15 p.m. on November 24th. The second was announced to take place at any time between 25th and 27th November. There was a precautionary period preceding these exercises.\n\n4. In the first blackout, the public gave their full co-operation, and the exercise was successful, but the same high standard was not maintained in the latter series of blackouts.\n\n## VIII. Sirens.\n\nElectric sirens for Hong Kong and Kowloon were ordered during the year and those for Hong Kong have been erected.\n\n## IX. Messengers.\n\nAn A.R.P. Cyclist Corps was formed to ensure communications in the event of the breakdown of the telephone service. A number of Boy Scouts were also enrolled for this duty.\n\nPage 7\n\nA.H. 3.

        "content_text": "## \n\n47 \n\nHundreds of women and children stayed behind in Hong Kong; many women were granted exemption, others refused to go - the wives of senior government officials stayed behind, got jobs in the censor's dept. or said they were nurses etc., and most of the wives of men in higher positions in the colony remained - why this unfair discrimination? Many women have since had babies, and many have since married and since we have been here, and started their homes in the Colony - many women have obtained permission to return to the colony, but how it is done, we cannot find out, or I for one should try to get back. This week alone Mrs. Hazeland, a woman of over 70, is returning to the Colony, also a Mrs. Cameron and her infant son, and her Mother have just left for the Colony, and a Mrs. Ashby and her two children have returned to the Colony. We consider this discrimination most unfair and our husbands are all fed up too, but seem unable to do anything. I felt that if the facts were put before you, perhaps you could do something about the matter.\n\nAlso when we British women were ordered to leave the Colony, hundreds of other white women were allowed to stay, such as Americans, French and other nationals, and they can still go into the Colony; also there are thousands of half-castes and Chinese women in the Colony, yet we were deported from our own homes.\n\nThis evacuation has meant great hardship for us all - we get no financial help from the government (although I understand that Army and Navy wives are helped financially) and so it means that our husbands have two homes to keep going, and in my case and many others, it means three homes, as we have a son at school in England. Cost of living has risen very much in Hong Kong and there are more taxes now too, and most men try to give every month to the war funds; and here we also find that living is higher than we were told and everything very expensive.\n\nLife continues as usual in Hong Kong; there are big social gatherings and nothing is on a war-like footing. A new big amusement park has just been opened with the approval of the Government.\n\nWe claim that we should be allowed to return to our husbands and homes. We want to know why we could not stay and face whatever might come; we should have been given the choice of staying or leaving, the same as the women of England have been given the choice over evacuation. We too, are British women and capable of doing our bit just the same as the women at home have done and are doing; in fact, we should be happier if we could do something to help.\n\nThis breaking up of families is all wrong, and through this evacuation, many homes will be broken up - unhappiness caused through it already.\n\nThe men in Hong Kong formed a committee to try and get us back and a petition was sent to the Secretary of State, the late Lord Lloyd, but it was refused; however, the evacuation order was then cancelled, that meant no more women were evacuated, but we were not allowed to return.\n\nI quote the following from the Hong Kong Overland China Mail of the 14th May, 1941, as follows:\n\n\"Dean Wilson also visited St. Andrews to bid goodbye, but we still think his best farewell effort was his letter on the evacuation when he said that \"until the deep-seated mistrust...",

The diet is to be the same as for Stanley and Dr. Canaval and his wife, Dr. Helen Canaval, have been instructed to act as medical supervisors. The Canavals have made attempts to be allowed to remain in Stanley, thus far without success. Incidentally it is interesting to hear that the Chinese volunteers who were released from internment came out most reluctantly: first because, poorly as they ate inside the camp, they were not sure of eating at all outside; and second because they had no desire to work for the Japanese.\n\nThere are a fairly large number of short wave transmitters still in use in the Colony. They seem to be concealed mostly in attics and in basements (the Sham Shui Po camp had two, one of which is still working). Mrs. Zaitzoff had no trouble at all in getting up-to-date news from her friends. The stations most listened to are B.B.C. through New Delhi, Chung King, San Francisco and the Russian station in Shanghai.\n\nOn one point Mrs. Zaitzoff was emphatic. She found the prevailing feeling in the Colony to be a longing for the British to return and convert Hong Kong back to something approaching its former state. They regard the days gone by as a sort of golden age and their hopes and prayers are fixed on their return. I questioned Mrs. Zaitzoff very closely on this. She stuck to it that it was the British they wanted (not American and not Allied) and she repeated that the feeling was very general. This contradicts opinions expressed by other members of the Hong Kong party; but Mrs. Zaitzoff was in a better position to form an accurate judgement and her account carries a certain weight. She also said that no Chinese had any doubt about how the war was going or how it would end. They are well abreast of the news.\n\n64251-1\n\n29",

Thoresen & Co., Ltd., for the last five years, partly in Bangkok, partly in Hongkong. I came back to Hongkong in August, 1941, taking over the Import Department of the Firm. Prior to that, I had been working also in the shipping export and insurance departments. Besides my ordinary work, I was a keen amateur photographer, member of the Photographic Society of Hongkong. Occasionally, I would send articles and photos to newspapers in Norway (before April 1940, of course) and to America. Ref: `LIFE` - 22nd September 1941, Japanese Naval Ships occupying Indo-China. The pictures I took on that occasion were given to the Naval Information Department in Hong Kong and I understand copies were also sent to Singapore.\n\nWhen War broke out in December 1941, I joined up with the A.T.S. and was attached to the Telephone Co., whose engineers formed a volunteer section of signal men. I was Captain WALTER CLARK'S chauffeur and we were driving practically all around the island every day, visiting the various signal posts, and inspecting damage caused by bombing or shelling. When the Japanese occupied the City of Hongkong on 26th December, 1941, I was staying with the Telephone Co's people in Exchange Building. Everybody in the building were interned, regardless of nationality. We had to go up on the roof at 7 a.m. doing physical exercises every morning and had more or less an order of the day to follow. However, we were generally well treated, having three solid meals a day in Cafe' Wiseman. When the British, Americans and Dutch were sent to the Chinese hotels for internment, they allowed all Third Nationals in Exchange Building to go back to their homes, if there was anything left to go back to. As my flat in Conduit Road had been taken by a Japanese Civilian, I was allowed to stay on in Exchange Building until I joined four other Norwegians and took a house on Bowen Road. One of my mess mates was Mrs. TUI BERG, a trained nurse, Australian born, married to a Norwegian, SVERRE BERG. The latter was a volunteer in the 2nd Battery and was wounded in the arm. His wife used to go to the Military Hospital every week handing in parcels, until he was transferred to SHAMSHUIPO Camp. I understand the treatment and food at the Hospital are better than in the Camps, as Mrs. SELWYN-CLARKE, assisted by Mrs. BERG, Mrs. ODELL, Miss HAHN, and others, handed in considerable quantities of food and medicines every week, to a value of about 1,400 or H.K. $5,600. The financial side was arranged by Dr. SELWYN-CLARKE. The general state of health at SHAMSHUIPO has been rather bad, with a high percentage of deaths and sickness. The small field hospital inside the Camp is full, and only in very serious cases patients are sent over to Bowen Road and very often too late.\n\nFrom our house in Bowen Road, we used to see coffins covered with the Union Jack being carried out of the Hospital quite frequently and buried on the hillside.\n\nIn July, 1942, the value of the Hongkong Dollars depreciated to the rate of 4 to 1, and the Military Yen has since been the only acceptable currency for payment of Government bills, tram, bus and ferry fares, etc. Prices went up suddenly after the drop in exchange sometimes twice or three times in Yen compared with previous quotations in Dollars. A tin costing $2 before would be priced at Y4 or Y6, thus putting the cost of living for those who had to depend on a limited amount of Hongkong dollars to an extremely high level. Shortage of food was beginning to be acute, and before and during the Chinese New Year, there was practically no meat, pork and fish in the market. There was a ration scheme for rice, flour, sugar and peanut oil, as follows:\n\n| Category | \nRice |",

He used to keep one for the consumption of himself and his wife and sell the other 3 catties, as the only means of obtaining a little ready cash. There was a brisk business in looted goods, mostly food and clothing, in the main streets of the city. Pedder St., Queens Road, Wyndham St. and the Central District became virtually transformed into street markets, the streets on both sides being lined by booths and stalls. The prices of all articles were anything from three to ten times those normally prevailing. There was no sign of the re-opening of ordinary shops and businesses by the 17th Feb.\n\n## RLD CROSS\nShortly after the end of the war the Japanese were approached by a small committee including the Swiss Consul, Bishop Valtorta and others in an effort to obtain the permission of the Japanese to despatch a cable to Geneva requesting the establishment of a Chapter of the International Red Cross in Hongkong for the alleviation of distress. The Japanese, however, flatly refused to consider the proposal. One of the services which it had been hoped to carry out through an organisation such as the Red Cross was the preparation of a full casualty list, both civilian and military. By the middle of February no attempt had been made to prepare or publish any sort of casualty list, and there was considerable distress in Chinese, Indian and European circles as to the fate of relatives and friends who had not been heard of since the end of the fighting. Small and incomplete lists had been compiled privately of certain people who were known to be in the various camps, but there was no pretence at the compilation of an exhaustive list, and the Japanese themselves had no lists of the names of those who were interned in any of the camps. The utmost that was done was the publication of a few names in the daily paper of men who had died in one or other of the hospitals. On 27th Jan. the first list of 24 names was published, and on one or two subsequent occasions small additional lists were published.\n\n## ESCAPES\nMany thousands of Chinese have left the colony since the end of hostilities by every conceivable route, both land and sea. Their departure \"to their homes in the country\" has been encouraged by the Japanese, who are anxious to reduce the population of Hongkong to below the million mark, and have provided certificates guaranteeing safe conduct to Chinese as far as Hum-chun. Not more than thirty Europeans appear to have effected an escape from Hongkong since the party of 65 men who escaped with Admiral Chan Chak on the last day of the war. Of these Col. Ride and his party (3 in number) escaped from Sham Shui Po Camp on Jan. 13th, and other parties under Lieut. Douglas, Major Munro and Capt. Scriven, totalling 12 men in all, escaped from both Sham Shui Po and North Point Camps on dates between 20th Jan. and Feb. 1st. Full details of these are given in Col. Ride's report. So far as I can ascertain six civilians appear to have succeeded in escaping. These include Mr. Duff, who escaped on Jan. 20th, my own escape on Feb. 10th and that of Messrs Marsman and Lavrov (American) who escaped two hours later, and also that of Mr. Bentley (Government Pharmacist) who left Hongkong on Feb. 17th. I am not in possession of the details regarding Miss Phyllis Harrop's escape. My own route was via Star Ferry, Kai Tak Aerodrome, Taikung, Mirs Bay, Sha-yu-chung, Tamshui, Kweichow, East River, Lungchun and Kukong. At all points on the route the attitude of the guerillas and Chinese civilian authorities was most helpful, and I should like to pay a warm tribute to their friendliness.\n\n## JAPANESE GOVERNOR OF HONGKONG\nThe newly appointed Japanese Governor is Lieut.-General Isogai, whose arrival in the colony took place about Feb. 10th.

        "content_text": "30\n\n86\n\nMr. Kimura, to have my pass renewed. I soon laid in a stock of tinned things for my husband which I carried out from town, a walk of about forty minutes, so I managed to keep him fed, although, again, it was not the food he required; he imperceptibly lost weight and strength. Dr. T. P. W. was Superintendent of the hospital, and he visited my husband regularly and proved a most sympathetic and pleasant visitor; his merits as a doctor will be touched on later.\n\n4\n\nFor about the middle of February the entire European staff of St. Stephen's was evacuated to Stanley Prison, the exact date I have not noted. They were very much missed, but their going removed about sixty-nine people and gave a great deal more room in the hospital. We were promptly moved to the Music Room, a very comfortable, pleasant room on the first floor, and everything was done for our comfort by Dr. Wy and Miss Lion, the Matron, a most pleasant and efficient young woman. We were also given a small stove, kerosene, so that I could prepare my husband's food, as he could eat practically nothing of the hospital diet and needed special milk puddings and other things. Through the hospital supply of milk we were able to get 16 oz of milk a day for him. Later on in the month I was lucky enough to find a fine big electric heater in Cat Street, which I used for cooking and keeping the room warm. It had got gray and bitterly cold by then and the room was like an ice box.\n\n09\n\nDr. Bellum-Clark came to see us occasionally and was very worried about conditions at Stanley Prison. He said that the food was entirely inadequate, that out of over 3,000 people, more than 1,600 were sleeping on the bare floor and very often on stone floors, and that the overcrowding was simply shocking, and that disease would soon put in an appearance. He said that the calorie value of the food they were getting was 1,400 calories per day whereas a patient in bed needed 2,400 and a person walking about should have 3,400. Later, in May, it was reported that none of the people at Stanley were able to do heavy work more than 2 hours a day without collapsing.\n\nMy husband and I were getting along as well as could be expected; in fact, considering other people's condition we were not badly off at all. I was free to rove about at will, and we had enough food, even though for economy's sake I lived on rice and beans for weeks, and found it excellent for reducing purposes. I lost twenty-four pounds, thanks to diet and plenty of exercise, pounds I could well afford to lose. But I did not feel hungry; what money we had went for food for my husband.\n\nUnfortunately my one and only pair of walking shoes — I had brought plenty of dress shoes from Chungking — gave out, developed splits across the soles, so I cut out inner soles from a rubber apron given me by the Matron and put them inside in rainy weather, to save the expense of getting them resoled. Prices for tinned food were soaring to such a height that I had begun to be frightened about our money holding out. I had to buy practically everything my husband ate. I could do well enough on beans and rice, but it was no use for my husband.\n\nJ.\n\nI discussed this matter with Mr. Law and asked his help in getting money. He said that I could write a letter to Mr. Reeves in Macao asking for help, and that he would see that the letter went by safe hand.\n\nMr. Kimura had been most extraordinarily kind in helping the Kowloon Europeans. The Japanese order to evacuate the Peak was a most cruel and dreadful thing. People were driven out of their houses with just what they could carry. I did not see it myself, but was told about it by Mrs. Knipps who did. She said, to see that long line of people walking down the road from the Peak, hundreds and hundreds of them, women who were pregnant, women with their babies tied Chinese fashion on their backs, carrying what they could in either hand, with other children running alongside, carrying what bits their small strength could, very often entirely alone because the men of the family were already in concentration camps, women gently born, coming from good homes in many cases, people you knew. When they were driven out of their homes they were graciously permitted to take what they could carry themselves, no coolies allowed. And what to take? Food for the children, clothes for the children, bedding, valuables — what can one person carry anyway? People who were not accustomed to carrying anything.\n\nAnd",

Forster)\n\nThe papers received contain a fair statement of the opinion and suggestions of the Advisory Committee.\n\nI and II set out clearly the considerations which the Committee had in mind, and states succinctly its judgment in favour of the setting up in Hong Kong of a University which will not only fulfil the purposes of the original foundation but will satisfy the wider post-war conception of what relations between China and Hong Kong and Great Britain should be.\n\nReviewing past hopes and difficulties, the Report rightly makes a bid for the proper fulfilment of hopes already strongly held though long deferred.\n\nIn doing so it affirms belief in the quality of British learning and teaching and assistance which that can render in the development of China and of co-operative and fraternal relations - now generally recognised as being so highly desirable - which, in a somewhat lone course, members of the University Staff have ever striven to attain, not without some measure of success.\n\n## I. Third page\n\n### I. last paragraph\n\nThough I do not myself envisage the possibility of the eventual secession of Hong Kong from the Empire with the dark dismay which such a suggestion would create in the minds of large numbers of the British public, at the moment I demur at the statement: \"An institution which is likely eventually to be handed over to her.\" I should be sorry if China welcomed the resurrection of our University because she hoped one day to have it in her own hands. Our proposal is to erect a British University. Whatever future developments, we are asking now for financial support for such an institution, informed in the first instance by British ideas and ideals, British administration, British thought, British standards of education and learning. We ask the British public for no more, at this juncture. Certain elements in such an institution could never be 'handed over'. I should prefer the deletion of the first two sentences in this paragraph.\n\n## II. \n### II. Paragraph 4 (b)\n\n\"Chinese Nationalist feeling 1923/31\" I must offer the evidence of my own experience. Throughout these years - critical years in the history of Anglo-Chinese relationships - some of us maintained the closest co-operation, on easy, friendly terms with educated...",

A certain amount of opposition from the fishing \"laans\" became evident recently, but negotiations are in progress and it is not anticipated that the development of the scheme will be impeded.\n\n## 99\nThe value of the fish handled during the three months period stands at some $2,300,000. The lack of ice has resulted in the fishermen having to salt a large proportion of their catch, with the result that the supplies of salted fish are in considerable excess of those of fresh fish. The supplies of fresh pond fish have so far been disappointing but measures are now being taken whereby the full benefit of the catches will be available on the open market.\n\n## 100\nThe chief result of the fish marketing scheme has been a marked fall in wholesale and retail prices and the regular and not unsatisfactory supply of fish of all kinds to the markets.\n\n## 101\nApart from the success of the marketing scheme, the progress towards the general rehabilitation of the fishing industry has not otherwise been impressive owing to the severe shortage of craft, fishing nets and other necessary gear. A survey of the junk building industry has already been completed in respect of most areas in the Colony, and a survey of the junk-yards at Shekki and Macao will be carried out in the near future. It is hoped to obtain considerable supplies of general fishing requirements from the Shekki neighbourhood.\n\n# BOTANICAL & FORESTRY\n\n## 102\nThe Colony has been denuded of flowering shrubs, but it is proposed to start a nursery in the new Botanical Garden with a view to creating a new stock for planting next spring.\n\n## 103\nThe general forestry position is unsatisfactory owing to extensive damage and unrestricted cutting carried out during the occupation. Various seeds and young trees are, however, available. Seeds have been collected and pine seeds purchased, and these are now being sown in the nurseries. Within the limits of common humanity, steps are being taken to control the illicit felling of trees by a population starved of firewood. Some firewood for domestic consumption is being obtained from the Deep Bay area, but the main hopes still lie in Borneo.\n\n# NEW TERRITORIES\n\n## 104\nThe re-occupation of the New Territories was accomplished in three stages: first, the parts of the mainland easily accessible by road, then the outlying parts and finally the islands. The occupation of Lantau and of Feng Chow in Mirs Bay was completed by about the third week in November.\n\n## 105\nAmong the Administration's first acts was...",

Grantham)\n\nD. 10th June, 1949. R. 10th\n\n13.00 hrs.\n\nNo.566\n\nSecret.\n\nAddressed to S. of S.\n\nRepeated to Deputy Commissioner General (Colonial Affairs) by savingram.\n\nYour telegram No.652.\n\nChinese refugees.\n\nAs stated in my telegram No.514 net increase over last six months is about 118,000. The Colony could absorb further 150,000 approximately before facilities in the way of rations, fuel and accommodation would be strained to the utmost. So far as water is concerned (which in dry winter months is most serious problem) summer rains have already started. Arrivals over last six months are either,\n\n2\n\n(a) Refugees with some capital of their own who are able to live with friends or relatives, or\n\n(b) Poor refugees of coolie or artisan class who live in squatters areas (which are still most expanding and are periodically cleared up). Most of them come within category (a).\n\nClosing of frontier would not (repeat not) prevent infiltration of Communists.\n\n3. Comparative peaceful takeover of Shanghai by Communists will make Chinese in South China less likely to leave their homes than if the city had been sacked. Return trend towards Shanghai is already evident. They are anxious to get home if for no other reason than they find Hong Kong too expensive. Net influx last week just under 4,000. If therefore policy of Communists on taking over new areas continues as it has to date, I do not anticipate large influx of refugees. It is however always a possibility. Greatest danger as I see it is in deserting or defeated Nationalist soldiers whom we should disarm and push back over the frontier as quickly as possible. Approximately 3,000 from Amoy and Swatow have already been received, disarmed and returned to China.\n\n4. Position therefore is that there is still a long way to go before we reach saturation point and whilst there are few things I should like to see better than decrease in population let alone cessation of increase, there is really no half-way house (except reducing number of trains from Canton) between present open door policy and shutting door.",

        "content_text": "SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST, THURSDAY, MARCH 2, 1950.\n\nMONGKONG UNIVERSITY CONGREGATION\n\n(Continued from Page 3)\n\nWhatever idea in this very place, in the Colony of Hongkong.\" freedom to the less remember your University is always here to help you in your problems; use her as much in your post-graduate life as you did before.\n\nSome of you are destined to become leaders of your fellow men, others followers. In your lives we do not expect you to accept slavishly and blindly what you were taught here, but having been taught to think, to discern, to discriminate, and to reason, we are confident that you are equipped to choose your own way of life. May you live wisely, remembering always our creed, what of many other equally heroic restoration of the playing field ever our standard of learning, exploits performed in China; surely in this year of grace 1950, lads who fearlessly penetrated occupied Hongkong: who lived for months in the hills over-looking Kowloon, where one magnificent gift of $35,000 towards the pavilion by Mr and Mrs Leung Yew. By September next, 80 of our 180 women graduates will be able to live in the new hostel built through the generous gift of one million dollars by Sir Robert Ho Tung.\n\nHe then went on to tell the audience, which crowded this Great Hall, how he got the idea. He said that during his studies, while at the College of Medicine in Hongkong, more than 30 years previously, after his school work and lectures, after his book reading, he used to stroll the streets of Hongkong, it being known to only very few people. About the middle of 1942 we were visited by an officer of the R.A.F, who was planning a secret mission to the Netherland Indies and Malaya. At this stage of the war such missions had hitherto never been attempted in the Far East; they were in every sense of the word penetrating and hazardous unknown. One of the reasons for the visit of this officer was to recruit a dependable companion. He chose Lau Teng-kee, one of our undergraduates.\n\nAttainments\n\nNow what of our attainments in the training of good citizens? In practically every profession, in practically every walk of life, that humility is the essence of wisdom.\n\nLau knew full well the measure of paper which was a scarce and valuable commodity not couched in a completed form. It is therefore fitting that the new School of Engineering and Architecture building, that I shall be opening later this afternoon, should be named after him: thus his memory perpetuated.\n\nAlthough Dr Sloss' departure was a loss, we were very fortunate in securing the services of Dr Ride as his successor. Apart from his capabilities and personality, is the fact that he has been with the University for more than twenty years, and so knows all our aspirations.\n\nIt is very pleasing to have with us to-day, the Chancellor of the University of Malaya, the Right Hon. Malcolm MacDonald. I warmly welcome him. The University of Malaya was inaugurated on October 8, 1949, on which occasion I had the pleasure of sending a message of greeting to the Chancellor.\n\n\"I also express with the united hopes of the Hongkong University, which is the university of this British Colony that is mainly supported by the Colony, but the services it renders far beyond our small confines. It is uniquely situated at the door of China and thus it brings to the people of China the best that British and western culture can offer. Our doors are open to entrants from China, as well as from Hongkong and Malaya. We offer them our facilities freely and we ask for nothing in return. This is in accordance with the vision of our predecessors. If we succeed in carrying out our aim, we will have done something to foster a mutual appreciation between the inheritors of two of the world's most important cultures. (Applause).\n\nThere are two reasons why the University has made good progress. First and foremost, I would put the inspiring leadership given by the last Vice-Chancellor, Dr Sloss. Time and again he wanted to retire but at my urgent request he carried on.\n\nThe second reason, why such good progress has been made, is that the University has many friends not only amongst the alumni, but also amongst the citizenry of Hongkong. Most public life in this Colony, you will find our graduates playing an ever increasingly responsible and honoured part.\n\nIn closing, I feel I cannot do better than quote the message of another Vice-Chancellor, Sir John Medley, at the University of Melbourne in 1940.\n\n... my wishes which are the University's wishes to you are particularly important, with the University's wishes to you are in the customary very welcome increase mere fifty miles, He thought of liberally to found and maintain the beautiful streets, the artistic parks and wondered why and faith is more than justified incredible difficulty of landing was stolen from its hiding place success and prosperity in all your There are two reasons why the University made good progress.\n\nWhat Better Proof? What better proof could one desire than this of the statement I made a few minutes ago that a University is something more than a mere teaching institution. It was not what he was taught here that made Dr Sun Yat-sen \"give up his profession of curing men and spend his time curing his country\": but it was the effect on him of the life he shared with others, his teachers and his fellow students, in a British institution of learning in a British Colony.\n\nAs Father Ryan said in his talk before the Rotary Club last November, the youth of our educational institutions is \"the most important export of our Colony.\"\n\n(2) There must be 101s Chinese who are shareholders of the company. I could easily find out what percentage of them are Chinese by looking at the shareholders' returns in their file with the Registrar or availing myself of section 98 (1) of the Companies Ordinance of 1932. But I don't care to take the trouble at the present. Since the Chinese are the main sufferers, they should make their voice heard at the shareholders' meeting.\n\nM. H.

E. the Governor said: What a period of tragedy the world has gone through since the last Congregation nine years ago. Although I say this in no sense of self-pity, we in Hongkong were certainly one of the major sufferers. Even to-day in this hall we can see the ruin and devastation of war.\n\nThe University had to be abandoned physically in 1941, its spirit carried on and the light of learning was not extinguished. This was only made possible by the kindness of our friends in China, who took in some of our students, and thus enabled them to continue with their studies.\n\nThe progress at first seemed slow, and as late as 1948, that is only two years ago, I said in an address to the Court that the University was then in the position that it was in 1916.\n\nPerhaps I was unduly pessimistic, for in fact the progress that has been made is quite remarkable. As an instance of this might quote the figures of the number of students. In 1941 there were 572; in 1948 507; in 1949, 620. This number for 1949 represents the complete faculties and Medicine, but still lacks two years of medical students.\n\nOur Medical Faculty this and next year, our undergraduate strength will be at least 800.\n\nThanks To Government\n\nWe acknowledge with grateful thanks the help of the Hongkong Government. This University is already been filled, and it is proposed that Government department; we have no claim for financial help that have no claim for financial help.\n\nMay I in conclusion now say a few words to those who are the youth of to-day's ceremony, our Graduands. It has always been a matter of wonderment and of not a little amusement, to me, that when our Chancellor declares the Congregation open for the conferring of degrees, the story of the exploits in Malaya of one of our former undergraduates, Lim Bo-seng, loyalty; as long as we maintain your graduation is but the end of one stage in the school; but there is a difference. While here you have had the protection and guidance of your academic mother but now you are equipped to stand alone. Never be victims of such evil to stoop so low but will act Courageously and with courage and resolution.\n\nDAYA KHANRA.\n\nNanette Ho Kam Tim-cheng.
