E. SHELLEY, \n\nClerk of the Councils. \n\nJOHN FRANCIS DAVIS, Governor, &c. &c. \n\nHONGKONG.-Published by Authority. \n\nPrinted by Jous CarK. \n\nIn 230 H tong \n\nTo His Excellency the Governon \n\nof Hongkong and its Dependencies and the the Colony Honorable Members of the Legislative Coun- cil of Hongkong. HONORABLE SIRS-We respectfully beg to address you with reference to Ordinance No. \n\n17 of 1844 entitled \"An Ordinance for Esta- blishing a Registry of the Inhabitants of the \"Island of Hongkong and its Dependencies.\"-- passed the Legislative Council the 21st August last and published for the first time in the Friend of China of the 19th October to come into force the 1st November. \n\nTho it may not be strictly within our pro- vince to question the Policy of the publication of any ordinance, whether urgent or unimpor tant its principles and details, not taking place until within the short space of twelve days of the period of its coming into operation we cannot but express our regret that an Ordi- nance so materially affecting both public and private interests, which appears to have been passed so for back as the 21st August last, should not have been made known to us un- til within so short a period of our being called upon to acknowledge it as law-thus depriving as the opportunity of making that due \n\nrepresen tation of our opinions against such enactments as may appear to us to bear hard upon our in- terests: a privilege, which as being unrepre- sented in the Legislative Council, we think is our due considering the important interests we have at stake in the Colony. To these cir- cumstances we pray you to attribute the la- teness of our present address and not to any indifference to the subject at issue. \n\nWith these preliminary observations, we desire, therefore to represent to you Excellency and the respective Honorable Members of your Council the unfeigned, and extreme repugna- nce with which we have read the Ordinance in question and to enter our formal and de- clared Protest against the Principles that it involves. \n\nPrinciples-We do not hesitate to say as unjust as they are arbitrary and unconstitutional taxing British subjects unrepresented in the most iniquitous of forms, authorizing the most unheard of inquisitorial proceedings, without appeal or remedy, and placing the very power of residence to British subjects whose name may have hitherto been unsullied and unsus- pected in the hands of any one individual. \n\nFurther-We consider that the Law in question is opposed in its details to one of the great objects struggled for during the late was with the Chinese Empire, and against which special provision was made in the Treaty of Nankin-namely, the unchristan principle of bolding one men responsible for the acts of another. \n\npur- \n\nAgain-We would represent that the effect of this enactment if carried out will interfere with the labor and consequent prosperity of the Colony-inasumch, as many of us have entered in o contracts upon the faith of chases wale from your Government at enor- mous rentals, which must now either be broken or delayed from the demur that the contractor will make to introduce laborors for their fulfil- ment whiltst the despotism that is apparent in this act, will induce many respectable Chinese who have now sufficient difficulty in paying \n\nthe heavy house rent in this Colony entirely to abandon the place, and deter others from taking up their residence amongst us. And, Moreover-We give it as our unqualified opinion that the carrying out of the details of this Ordinance will be found impracticable, as well as inefficacious for the object sought to be in attained, that the principle that it in- volves is even more stringent than has ever yet been applied to a penal settlement and we confidently assert is repugnant to the feelings of every Honorable British subject. \n\nWith the above representation of our views of and ↑ Protest against this Ordinance we would pray your Excellency in Council either to modify its details so as to remove the intollerance of the principles that it gives law to, or to cause the operation of it to be sus- pended until reference can be made to the Home Co- vernment as we cannot suppose that such a measure can receive the sanction of Her most gracious Majesty. \n\nT.

H. CARVALHO, Secretary\n\nHongkong, 20th January, 1857.\n\nTo the Editor of the \"HONGKONG REGISTER.\"\n\nMACAO, 1st February, 1857.\n\nDEAR SIR—The 10 mandarins, who came from Shang-hae, have been here for a few hours, and having taken their dinner at Cau-qa hong, embarked in the ensuing for Casa Branca, and from there to Yan-san and Cass feathers; and 5 of them bare blue buttons. Two of the mandarins have red buttons and peso sent to Caatho to assist Yeh—and it is said, that two of them were formerly in Canton in the time of the first war with Commissioner Lin.\n\n\"Every thing here is quiet, but I say in the harbour a good many mandarin junks displaying a varying flag. Though people are at this time they cannot do any harm here, I would question, that. What could we do prevent their attacking this place and carrying away the heads of the English that are living here?\n\nI am, &c,\n\nThe Hongkong Register.\n\nHONGKONG, TUESDAY, 3 FEBRUARY, 1857.\n\nNOTICE—The Hours of Posting Wrons in the CENTRAL POST OFFICE, Hollywood Road, are on the Subirth at 11 am, and stand on the Evening of every Wednesday at 7 o'clock.\n\nSIXTY.\n\nWe recorded a pedestrian feat last week —walking to the top of Victoria Peak and back six times in twenty-four hours. The same gentleman did the same task this week in twelve hours, which shows, speaking in all honor and praise, that he is an artful dodger; for the latter feat though apparently more difficult, is in reality easier.\n\nProof—a friend of ours went up and down in fifty-seven minutes.—say one hour at four miles. Four times six's twenty-four; and good steady walking, making the trip equal to twenty-four miles in twelve hours is not very great walking.\n\nTaking all the difficulties into account on an undertaking like this is more easily carried through at one heat than in two, we have no doubt that with, or, from what we hear, without halting, the gentleman who has done the six times could easily do the eight if he set his mind on it.\n\nWe have been trying to persuade our ... C. to put himself in training and try the feat—but he says he has been once to the gap and considers that enough is as good as a feast.\n\nNo. 5. FEBRUARY 3, 1857.\n\nThe climate of London is one thing, and the climate of Hongkong is quite another.\n\na more material matter than that of Hongkong, we must decidedly feel of any corps being sent away from this place.\n\nAn urgent necessity exists for augmenting and making the most effective part of the regular police force here, many of whom do their duty conscientiously to the best of their ability—but the superintendence of London is one thing: and the superintendence in Hongkong is another.\n\nThe screw Steamer Sir James Brooke left this at noon yesterday to Hongkong, having on board three companies of Sepoys, a detachment of European Artillery-men, for service in China, despatched on the requisition at the hands of Hongkong.\n\nThe troops consisted of two companies the 29th M. N. I., the European Artillery-men, Pang, and the Company of the Rifle Company accompanying this force are Major Cheslett, Captain Cazalet, Lieut. Foote, and Passingham of the gun, Capt. Man, Lieut. Forster of the Madras Artillery, Dr. Lloyd, Assistant Surgeon, Apothecary Edwards and Sub-Conductor Ball.\n\nThe Sir James Brooke has been chartered for Twelve thousand dollars.\n\nFrom these and other causes which might be specified Hongkong is not in effect London, and a system which may do very well at the latter place may require important modifications at the former.\n\nWe can never obtain the same raw material for a police here as obtainable in London, but we certainly, both in ordinary and in extraordinary times, such as the present, can make the most of our raw—excessively raw material.\n\nFirst: we would make the men effective by putting them on duty for a four hours beat; and if that could not be done conveniently from the central police station, we would do it from three stations—East, West, and Central.\n\nThe S.S. Auckland brought about 100 tons of shot, shell and ammunition from Pinang last week, which will be sent to China as soon as possible.\n\nBraitonore crew Pressa, Jan. 22.\n\nOn the arrival of the Mail at 6.30 PM of Sunday the 1st February we did, for the convenience of our subscribers, what we have not done before—viz: apply for a pass for two coolies to carry the respective Papers, which will secure early delivery.\n\nTwo passes were granted dated 10th January good for 21 days, the time expiring on the 31st January. Of course the 1st February was beyond the pale of the pass but coming direct from the Superintendent of Police we deemed it all right, thinking that police matters were going on in their usual cuddle.\n\nIn this belief the passes were on the night of the 2nd instant given to two of our Chinese Compositors to take them home, and we were somewhat astonished on being awakened at half past twelve, and informed, that our men were in custody.\n\nWe went down to the police office, and there we found the authorities pondering over the passes, and wondering to see the names of the boys written in red pencil, that being the color of the printing of the new passes.\n\nWe explained that a red pencil is a very common article in a printing office and that the names had been written in with that; then on making ourselves responsible for the lads we saw them let go.\n\nMARRIAGE.\n\nAt Belgrave-square, on the 24th November, the wife of Admiral Sir T. COCHRANE, of a Son.\n\nAt Victoria, Cox, ELIZABETH SANDERS.\n\nMarriage Register xi:10.\n\nON SUNDAY, the 1st instant, the P. & O.

The whole operation was effected with a loss of two men of the Fifty-ninth killed and about six wounded; the latter are doing, worth attention.\n\nOn the 14th I went over to the E-sing shop to have conversation with Ahlam about that contract only\n\nQuestion—Then Sir, do you mean to say you did not know that E-Bing had a bakery near the American Naval Store.\n\nAnswer—What have I to do as an Editor of Newspaper with B-ring's stores.\n\nI wanted to say that I know of a bakery being near the Dutch Fallyly were repulsed, and the Admiral bombarded the city from the Fort and the Niger\n\nOn Sunday night, the 18th instur, an attack against foreigners, us against their own Government, was made by large force of Chinese on the Dutch Fallyly were repulsed, and the Admiral bombarded the city from the Fort and the Niger\n\nIt is a remonstrance made by, know that E-Bing had a bakery near the American Naval Store.\n\nRead, however, distinctively, it shews the prejudices which have to be overcaico before English: Commerce can again take its fitting intration of laying, be had only put it up to deceive the mandrains, who had been troubling him.\n\nI told him, the garden and, after establishing his quarters in Jous WAY-fam stoward the Sultana, I know the Tee-to-tum fort, came down here on the 23d\n\nMARKETA—Notwithstanding the warlike operations which have been carried on since the departure of the Calcutta steamer on the 28 ult.

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.

Regarding the proposition that I should head the subscription to provide funds to remunerate (the captors of) devils' beads, I immediately applied to my teacher Kang (qy. Su-ting-kwei). He says, that the Ruler of the rebels has written back, blaming the military head of the devils altogether for commencing the disturbance of last year, and that the Governor-General (Yeh) has issued orders to the different train-bands to suspend offensive operations for the present, and if these are to be deferred, it is clear that the (taking of) heads is a measure that may be even yet more deferred. As regards the head now in custody, when this is forwarded to Canton, it had better be stated in the memorandum forwarded with it, that it was taken by my relation Cheung-chan-mei (that he may get the credit of it). The amount to be paid in reward can be carried to the last year's account of money lent between you and myself. If this, however, is any great trouble to you, there is no occasion to press it. Cheung-king-san (a Mandarin distinguished in Kwang-si three or four years ago) has already had the kindness to recommend my relation Cheung, and if this instance be added to the former, his credit will be increased. \n\nIn addition to the payment made by me on the 13th February into the District City Fund, for the support of the braves, I made a further payment of 2,000 dollars on the 24th February, and another of 1,000 dollars on the 2nd March. \n\n(Translation.) \n\n## Inclosure 12. \n\nChan-tsze-tin to Chun-kwei-tsih. \n\nMarch 7, night. \n\nI SENT Man-tsap-shin to you to-day at noon. At 6 this evening, I sent a man to Victoria to spy: he has returned with information that Duddell's store, in the Ha-wan, had been burned with upwards of 1,000 peculs of flour therein, several score of casks of biscuits, twenty or thirty barrels of spirits, and other articles of consumption. A devil was burned to death in this fire, which is not yet extinguished. There was so much flour that it was difficult to get the flames under. As soon as the fire broke out, the English devils fired some guns, and knocked down the Christian church by the side (of the bakery). The barracks to the left of it, and the powder magazine, were guarded by several hundred devil soldiers, who planted cannon for their protection. (The spy) saw with his own eyes that the building burned was Duddell's store and not the great devil building (Government House or the offices). Ever since the closing of the Heung-shan man, Cheung-alum's bread-shop, the greater portion of the devils soldiers' rations have been ordered of Duddell. This is why he had so much flour in store. The burning of supplies as on this occasion is a more successful measure than the interdict itself. \n\nIt is said that a few days ago three devil men-of-war came in with 1,000 and odd English (red-haired) devil soldiers on board, and that yesterday arms were issued to them. I have not ascertained whether there is any devil design (in this) or not. Wang-sui-shang's undertaking on the night of the 5th March failed, and being discovered, two of his underlings were seized. \n\nThe rest escaped to Cowloon. It is a great pity that this enterprise should have failed, as it has, through the dilatoriness of Wang-sui-shang. \n\n9 \n\nYesterday a spy reported that supplies are privily sent from Shui-chun-chung, on account of Ho-tsai-luk of Hong Kong, who has a boat armed with four muskets. He makes ordinarily 100 dollars on a run to or fro, by the carriage of bullocks and poultry. His run to and fro now stands him in 120 taels ready money. \n\nHo-tsai-luk is the head of the villains. The way to take him would be to send people to lie in wait at the water-side, until his vessel came out; success would then be certain, and were this man taken, the supplies would be cut off, without any interdict being necessary. However, I do not venture to undertake this on my own responsibility, or until I have represented its expediency. The supply of provisions from the Sha-yu-chung (Shark's Bay) is increasing. I am going to detach a vessel from Sha-tin, to cruize off the place. There are some water-braves in my camp, whom I can detach without inconvenience to Ch.-k-chow. It is also a place inland (within my range). \n\n(Application for powder, &c.) \n\n(Translation.) \n\n## Inclosure 13. \n\nChan-kwei-tsih to Chan-tsze-tin. \n\nMorning of the 21st February. \nTHE proposal respecting the gunpowder* (poison) is very important. A reward of from 500 to 600 dollars may be given. Three days will be the time allowed, and notice is to be given beforehand. If the introduction of the powder (poison) is successful, it will be rewarded. \n\nThe lists of the train-bands of the six wards and the nine wards (or confederacies) have been forwarded by the hand of Yu-ke-nin. Every camp or station having now its full complement, a hundred or more, there is no vacancy to be filled up. I will write to you separately regarding the proposed reduction of the braves, and you can act accordingly. \n\nI hear that the rebellious barbarians are spreading a report that between the 28th of this moon and the 2nd of next (22nd to 25th February), they will attack the District City, and I am making arrangements for its defence. \n\n### Postscript 1. \nThe banners for the train-bands, and the circular badges for their dresses, will be finished in a few days, and shall be sent. \n\n### Postscript 2. \nI send a jar of rice and one of powder. \n\n### Postscript 3. \nIf among the fifty-six volunteers you propose to disband, there be any available men, the propriety of retaining some ten or so may be taken into consideration. \n\n## Inclosure 14. \n\nTan-chin-yung (supposed to be a Pa-tsung, or Ensign, of the Cowloon establishment) to Chan-han-tsun (supposed to be Chan-tsze-tin). \n\n(Translation.) \nCompliments. \n\nMarch (?). \nWITH reference to the affair which was to have come off yesterday, they (the parties) were to have set to work on the 10th (5th March ?), but there are five barbarians belonging to the steamer; and on the evening in question, the servants (or persons concerned), after giving them their tea, had gone ashore in different parties, and having obtained the powder, were approaching the vessel, when one of the barbarians who was reading in the cabin, and had not drunk his tea, hearing the boat coming, fired upon her. The party fled to the shore, and so the matter fell through. The barbarian at once gave information, and search being immediately made for the people concerned, they are now in prison awaiting their trial. I do not know what admissions they have made; when \n*The word \"yo\" (Cantonese \"yeuk\") may stand either for \"ho yo,\" powder, or \"yo tsai,\" medicine; and the expression \"fu yo,\" a little farther on, for introduction of one or the other.

There was considerable discussion but no compromise that I recollect.\n\nAttorney General. Does this pamphlet contain the whole of the papers handed in to the Executive Council?\n\nMr Cleverly. It does not. A variety of enclosures, from A to S are omitted, besides one or two others. No 1, after S, was handed in by Mr Caldwell I think. The whole of the documentary evidence, as well as letters of protest are omitted from that pamphlet.\n\nAttorney General. Did those papers accompany the MS handed to the Council?\n\nMr Cleverly. They did.\n\nAttorney General. Was it the intention of the authorities when receiving the report to exclude the accompaniments from the printed part?\n\nMr Cleverly. Of course it was desirable the report should be sent in. Naturally it was the intention of the authorities that they should have an opportunity of testing and comparing the report by the documentary evidence.\n\nAttorney General. Was it the intention of the Commission to print all the documents?\n\nMr Cleverly. At first it was their intention.\n\nAttorney General. Was it not desirable to have them printed?\n\nMr Cleverly. It was certainly desirable, and the more so because of the discussion.\n\nAttorney General. You all concurred in the opinion that there was a great want of evidence.\n\nMr Cleverly. We did.\n\nAttorney General. Would it be possible for any person not a member of the Caldwell Commission to comprehend the report without the documents in relation to it?\n\nMr Cleverly. No, I do not think it would. Not very clearly. The report is very incomplete as it stands.\n\nAttorney General. It would have been more satisfactory had the documents been appended.\n\nMr Cleverly. Certainly. The report was not intended to go without it.\n\nAttorney General. In many places the minutes are unintelligible without them?\n\nMr Cleverly. It is intelligible, but incomplete.\n\n...\n\n\"It appears that no enquiry whatever has been addressed to any of the non-official Members of the Council on the subject; and I can state that I have received none.\n\n\"With the truth or falsehood of the recitals and averment in the said Commission, I do not mean to trouble this Hon. Council, beyond once more recording my emphatic denial, that the List of Charges,—by whom prepared I know not—does 'embrace the accusations made by me against the Registrar General;'—a contradiction which, from the 24th May last, the earliest opportunity I had for giving it, down to the present time, has been repeatedly officialised by me, and received without dissent or observation.\n\n\"But, I do ask this Hon. Council to admit this my Protest against the above acts of the Government, as being a manifest, deliberate, and persevering violation of its Privileges, solemnly recognised by the Sixteenth of His Excellency's own Standing Orders and Rules for the Legislative Council of Hongkong, which has been approved by Lord Stanley, the Secretary of State, and is as follows 'The Members of Council shall have freedom of speech, and shall not, at any time, be questioned by Government for any thing they have said therein.'\n\n\"I desire that this Protest may be recorded.\"\n\n(Signed) \"T.

It appears that the passage-boat had observed the Hakka boat bearing down upon them, but they anticipated no attack until they were hailed to stop. Discovering the nature of their visitor, the crew got up their arms, which consisted of four old muskets and some swords, and kept on their course with a light wind, when the other boat fired into them a charge of musketry. The fire was returned, all the passengers assisting in defending the vessel; and after a contest described as having continued for nearly an hour, the piratical craft made off, and the other boat kept on and anchored about 9 o'clock at the Salt Fish Bay, Lamma.\n\nMr. Sherman, bailiff of the Supreme Court, was returning from Aberdeen on Sunday evening, and when between Pokfulam and Mount Davis on the Aberdeen road, he had his attention called by a Chinaman who was looking on, to sharp musketry firing going on about 200 yards from the shore - two boats firing into each other. There were other boats in sight. One boat made off towards the Capsuymoon, and the other boat towards Hongkong. The boats were very near together, about ten yards apart only, during the time he saw them. He did not see the first of the firing.\n\nThrough the negligence of somebody, the matter was not brought to the notice of the proper authorities so soon as it should have been. The wounded men were conveyed to hospital, we believe not till the following day, as the Colonial Surgeon stated that he knew nothing of it till 2 o'clock on Monday afternoon, when amputation of some of the limbs became necessary in the case of one or two of the wounded men.\n\nAn inquest was held yesterday at noon at the Coroner's, and a verdict of wilful murder returned against some persons unknown.\n\nAt the inquest, the owner of the passage-boat who escaped personal injury was asked if he had ever paid any \"squeeze money,\" or if he had reason to anticipate an attack through refusing to pay such. He replied that passage-boats and salt-fish-boats from Chungchow paid no such, nor was anything demanded in extortion from this class of boats to his knowledge.\n\n5\n\nCUTTING", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-096 - Others - 1863.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 258240, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-096 - Others - 1863", "page_number": 241, "title": "CO129-096 - Others - 1863", "content_text": "In accordance with that object.\n\nIt's\n\nThe decision Ceylon, Mauritius\n\n02\n\nprincipal Australian Colonies will be called upon more\n\nIte & contribute liberally toward Suffort of the several detachments of ms troops whil are maintained in these Colonies, chiefly for the protection of Colonial Interests 238\n\nI make these few remarks, by the direction of the Duke of Newcastle, in order that you may be aware of what has already taken place in the matter, and for the purpose of bringing to your notice the fact that Colonies which have never to any great extent contributed a heavy charge On\n\n....", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-096 - Others - 1863.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 258435, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-096 - Others - 1863", "page_number": 436, "title": "CO129-096 - Others - 1863", "content_text": "Hong Kong\n\n11996\n\n427\n\nSie\n\nJ.

The increase of Revenue is derived from two items alone. The first is an increase on the returns of the Excise farms, which sold in April for £12,000 more than the rate of last year. The other item arises from fact that in our accounts for the the present year we will have twelve \n\nin \n\nsea \n\n(15 \n\nregretted, either by the Customs employés, or by the Foreign Mercantile Community of Chies. With regard to the employés in the Customs service, we do not know the reasons for their not regretting Mr. Lay's Gismissal se only know that such in the Chad. The gratulation of the merchants is much more easily understood, Abuut a year age, the Briel Government thought it to publish a Memorandum which had Buxted from Mr. Lay'e pun, and which was not only called for in the siram. atanes, but not at all coneistant with ub. The object which the lake Inspec tor-fieneral had in view in peuning the netid Merooranium was praballs to exhibit certain amount of temper (not good temper) towards the Foreign Me coucle Community for baring on various occasions displayed towards himself a per- \n\naltogether unprovoked, but would have her much better suppressed. People in Eugland will, we know, believe us, when we see then, last 53. II. N. Lay, in bis Memorandum,\" maligned the Mer- has of China, and that the latter body makenly afforded him some provocatias for doing so. Ilis conilest, however, in act ing upon the procation was inexcusable; and y consequence, that, though an able, l, so far as wo know, a strictly pright man, he rotires from pustic life in China, without the redit or sympathy, which it was, at mu time, ao easily in his power to have arned for bimself.

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

Anchored off Bay that night. A junk which left Hongkong at about same time kept near us all night. We had guns on board a 6 pounder and a 4 pounder, we fired them during the night, firing in the offing. Weighed at 6 A.M. of the 15th instant the junk was not then in sight. As we neared Pedra Branca observed what we supposed to be the same junk on our weather quarter. We loaded the guns going about 2 knots an hour. Malay crew, got up an alarm, 10 muskets, and swords. I called the men aft and asked if they would fight; they said yes. I served out the arms and manned the guns, at about 5:30 P.M. I went down to dinner, the junk about one mile off. The serung who was in charge on deck called out that the junk was hoisting a basket with stink-pots. I ran on deck, made a man carry my wife into fore-top and remain with her. The junk came down on us firing many guns, the shots going through the sails but not striking any one. We fired back with guns and as she neared we fired small arms. At first I saw only a few men on deck, she had two heavy guns. She came right alongside and threw stink-pots on board us and at the same time about 40 men came up the junk's hatchway and leaped on board the Cæsar. They were armed with axes, fire arms, lances, and halberts. As it was useless resisting any longer I ordered my men up to the fore top and went myself. Previous to this, in firing the pounder gun, my mate had injured his foot. He could not get aloft so went down the fore hatch. 7 of my crew remained with him and about 11 were aloft with me.\n\nThe Chinese fired several times after getting on board. They then ransacked the cabins taking all the clothes, charts, and instruments. They then saw that some of us were aloft. I called to them that I wanted to see the head man of the junk, one man stepped out with a rifle in his hand and ordered me to go down on deck. I refused and he fired at me but did not strike me. Two men were then sent after me, the first who came I kicked down. After some time he went down and I followed. When I got down the master of the junk struck me in the arm with the back of a sword. He asked me for the opium which was on board. I told them there was none. It was then called out that a steamer was coming. The master of the junk remained with 25 of his men on board of my vessel. The rest of his men went to the junk and she cast off.\n\nI was kept at the wheel and called my men down, my wife remained aloft with one man. My crew were put below the fore hatch and a cable put on the top of it. I was locked up in a cabin and the steward was sent to the wheel. Two men were then sent up for my wife and after a while hearing her scream out, I got through the cabin window and went after her and brought her down. The junk was then about a mile to windward of us. This was about 7 o'clock. My wife and myself were locked up in the cabin and three men placed to guard us.\n\nThe junk then came back to the ship and made fast, they called my crew up from below and made them put my guns into her. They then began taking out the cargo which consisted of rice. I did not know the time, but think that about midnight they left the ship cutting all the ropes before going. It was too dark to see which way she stood. My steward told me that he had heard them say they were going to Canton. Four of them spoke very fair English and one spoke Malay. The Captain of the junk told me that should we go to Hongkong or he would kill me. He left a chart for Amoy on board, and gave back the mate's quadrant. I asked for a barometer as I wished to know when a typhoon was coming, he gave me one but it had belonged to another ship. I pointed this out to him but he said \"muskee, this is the third one I have taken to-day,\" the others were a schooner and a barque. Two of the men had rings on their fingers, I asked for one supposing it to have been my wife's, he gave me one but not my wife's, it is marked \"M. L. 1858.\" The barometer is made by J. P. Moller, 118 Minories, London. The pirates stove my boats and took the oars and rowlocks.\n\nThe following day I saw a brig to windward and a ship to leeward and hoisted a signal. The `Everest`, British ship, came near and assisted me. He lent me a mate, and I ran the best of my way back to Hongkong. I anchored outside the Green Island this morning at 10 and came in a boat. When I anchored a junk passed near, the crew of which my men and myself recognised.\n\n### Deposition of Master of \"Casar\"\n\n(Signed) I. I.

The Chief Justice then, in a very angry tone, told Mr. POLLARD to sit down and keep silence, adding that Mr. POLLARD made it a rule to have always the last word, which was disrespectful to the Bench. Mr. POLLARD was about again addressing him, but the Chief Justice desired him to sit down, and abruptly left the Bench.\n\n7. After a short interval, the Chief Justice returned and at once asked Mr. POLLARD if he apologised; Mr. POLLARD asked him for what; the Chief Justice said, \"you know very well for what.\" Mr. POLLARD, in a quiet and collected manner, said that he had never intentionally been disrespectful to the Bench, and was not conscious of having done anything that could be so construed, that no one would be more ready to acknowledge his fault and to apologise if shown reason for so doing, but \"he did not see that he had done anything which called for an apology,\" and added that \"he thought \"the Court should be satisfied, there was an intention to insult it before making such an assumption.” The Chief Justice then said in an excited tone \"did you not say to me that a Chinaman was not a \"piece of paper?\" Mr. POLLARD asked \"is it for that, my Lord, I am to apologise?\" The Chief Justice said that is part of it, but there is more.” Mr. POLLARD denied knowing what the Chief Justice alluded to and asked to be informed, and attempted, two or three times, to address the Court, but the Chief Justice refused to hear him or to tell him with what he charged him, and angrily ordered him to be silent, and to sit down, and then he addressed the Jury, in a very excited manner, and told them he would adjourn the Court until Saturday, the Twenty-ninth. Mr. POLLARD protested against the adjournment, arguing that though the Court had power to deal with him, it was not competent to prejudice the Plaintiffs' case, as other Counsel could be procured for them. I also appealed to the Court to permit me, at least, to finish the cross-examination of the Comprador, as I deemed it of the utmost importance for my client that his cross-examination should proceed. The Chief Justice however refused, and then adjourned the case indefinitely, saying to the Jury that he \"would not proceed with the case until Mr. POLLARD apologised.\"\n\n8. The Court was accordingly adjourned, but, by mutual consent, the Record was immediately withdrawn, and the case submitted to arbitration, as the mode of dealing with it which appeared to be least prejudicial to the interests of our respective clients.\n\n9. On Saturday, the Twenty-ninth of June, I was again in the Supreme Court as Counsel for the Defendant in a case in which Mr. POLLARD appeared for the Plaintiffs. As soon as the Chief Justice had taken his seat on the Bench, he asked if any gentleman at the Bar had anything to say; on this, I informed him that the case, which had been before him on the preceding Thursday, had been referred to arbitration. The Chief Justice asked if any other gentleman had anything to say, and there being no answer, he then proceeded to read, as it appeared to me, from a manuscript, some sentences which, to the best of my belief, are given verbatim in the report contained in the China Mail of the Twenty-ninth of June, (copy hereunto annexed, marked A.) He intimated that he intended to give his decision in the matter on the following Monday, as Mr. POLLARD had received notice. Mr. POLLARD denied having received any such notice. The Chief Justice remarked that his objection \"was but a technical one and was in keeping with his conduct throughout.\" Mr. POLLARD then asked permission to speak, which was refused. Mr. POLLARD then called on the Chief Justice to note that he had applied to the Court to be allowed to speak and permission was refused. On this the Chief Justice said, \"Oh if you put it in that way you may speak,\" and when asked what he had to say, he stated that he had never sought to be aggressive\" on this the Chief Justice interposed, in an excited manner, saying \"that the Bench could protect itself from aggression,\" or something to the like purport, Mr. POLLARD then, in a very collected and respectful manner, disavowed ever having intentionally insulted the Court and assured the Chief Justice that there was \"no one who more respected the Bench than he did even apart from his position as a Barrister, but that he also owed \"something to his profession as a member of the Bar, that he was not aware of having done anything \"which required him to make an apology, but that he was then ready to do so, if any one, who was present in Court on the previous Thursday, would say that an apology was due from him to the Bench, and that he was not the only member of the Bar who had been in Court on that occasion.\"\n\n10. While in the act of finishing the last sentence, Mr. POLLARD sat down; the Chief Justice in a very angry and insulting tone ordered him to stand when he addressed the Court. Mr. POLLARD rose and said that was all he had to say.\n\n11. The case proceeded and lasted for some hours; at its close, before charging the Jury, the Chief Justice called both Counsel up to the Bench and made suggestions, which led to a verdict against my client by consent. Both Mr. POLLARD and I had also occasion, three times on that day, to attend before the Chief Justice in his Chamber in Bankruptcy, but nothing particular passed. Mr. POLLARD was most respectful, and the Chief Justice appeared to be on the very best terms with him. At the close of the day it was announced that his decision would be given \"on the Thursday's occurrence,\" on Tuesday the Second of July, instead of Monday the First, the day originally named.\n\n12. On Tuesday, the Second of July, I was also in Court. When the Chief Justice had taken his seat, Mr. POLLARD most respectfully protested against the Jurisdiction of the Court to deal with him in any manner for anything which had occurred previously. A note was taken of his objection, and he was then called upon by the Acting Registrar of the Court, in a manner most humiliating to him, to stand whilst the Chief Justice read out a very lengthened Judgment, which to the best of my belief is accurately reported in the Daily Press for Wednesday, July Third, (copy hereunto annexed, marked B.)\n\n13. I have been for many years a Member of the Irish Bar and was constant attendant at the Courts in Dublin, previous to my appointment in One thousand Eight hundred and Sixty-two, as Police Magistrate of Hongkong, and I can conscientiously declare, that never in my experience, has any Barrister, much less a Queen's Counsel, been treated with such indignity, and subjected to such public contumely, as Mr. POLLARD was on the Second of July.\n\n14. I can also conscientiously affirm that there was nothing done or said by Mr. POLLARD either on the Twenty-seventh or the Twenty-ninth of June which called for such an unusual expression of displeasure on the part of the Chief Justice; and I believe that if the Chief Justice had not unfortunately allowed himself to be needlessly and unduly excited, he would not have construed any of the acts of Mr. POLLARD on either of those days to be contempts of Court.\n\nSworn at Victoria, Hongkong, this\n\nEighteenth day of July, A.D. 1867.\n\nBefore me\n\nR.

I have read the above-named Petition of Mr. POLLARD, and the account therein contained of what took place in Court on that said Thursday is strictly true and is stated in a very temperate manner.\n\n3. That I was attending carefully to everything that passed on the Thursday, and I know that the Interpreter got very confused about the answers given by the Comprador (as witness) to Mr. POLLARD'S questions as to what the Defendant said about the four samples and the bulk of the Sugar (about which the action was brought), and that it was only then that Mr. POLLARD put leading questions, through the Interpreter, and they were, in my opinion, necessary to clear up the evident misunderstanding between the witness and the Interpreter.\n\n4. That I only on one occasion heard any objection to Mr. POLLARD'S mode of putting questions to the said witness, and that so far from persisting in it, he at once altered the shape of the question, so as to meet or avoid the objection.\n\n5. That there was nothing in what Mr. POLLARD said or did, that I ever thought could be looked on as contempt of, or disrespectful to, the Court in any way, and I was much surprised to hear the Chief Justice say that Mr. POLLARD ought to apologise.\n\n6. That from the very first occasion on which the Chief Justice spoke to Mr. POLLARD, his (the Chief Justice's) manner was arbitrary, intemperate, and insulting and it appeared to me as if he was trying to force a quarrel upon Mr. POLLARD, which the latter gentleman seemed anxious to avoid.\n\n7. That I was in Court on Tuesday the Second day of July instant, when the Chief Justice delivered a Judgment against Mr. POLLARD, and the manner of the Chief Justice was insulting and malevolent, the object being, apparently, to degrade Mr. POLLARD in the eyes of the Public, and I do not think that any one could believe a person, occupying the position of a Judge upon the Bench, could have so far forgotten all sense of propriety, unless he or they had seen the animus and ill-feeling displayed by the said Chief Justice on that day.\n\nSworn at Victoria, Hongkong, this\n\nSixteenth day of July, A.D., 1867.\n\nBefore me\n\nMay\n\nMs for Hong Kong\n\nEX.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-123 - Sir MacDonnell - 1867 [7].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 270970, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-124 - Sir MacDonnell - 1867 [8-9]", "page_number": 379, "title": "CO129-124 - Sir MacDonnell - 1867 [8-9]", "content_text": "370\n\nI also enclose the Acting Attorney General's opinion on the Ecclesiastical Ordinance.\n\nThis Legislation has resulted from instructions conveyed in Your Grace's Circular Despatch of the 10th March last, transmitting copy of the Act of the Imperial Parliament 27 and 28 Vict.

This Report and Estimate is brought forward in support of the removal of the two houses from their present positions to Farm Lot 32 lately purchased by the Government for the purpose. It may be proper to state that the unhealthiness at Potchefstroom Reservoir has arisen since the commencement of the excavation and is doubtless attributable thereto. The New site is out of reach of any malaria, which may arise in the Valley, is well above the level of the Reservoir and being within 3 minutes walk of the Works is in every way suited for the Overseers. The Coolies and Masons (supplied by the Contractor) have been removed from the Valley adjoining the hill and no particular unhealthiness amongst them now exists.\n\nIt is undesirable that the Overseer should sleep on the ground Floor which will be made use of as an Office only. An upper Story will be added to the Overseer's Residence. A Brick Verandah will be added all round the Building.\n\nThe Cost is estimated at $3000.

The following letter, received from Captain Mies of the brig `Rio Loge`, relative to the position of Rennels and Bellona Islands, is published for general information.\n\nG. GREY.\n\n### RENNELS AND BELLONA ISLANDS, Dunedin, 3rd October, 1878.\n\nSIR-I have the honour to report to you an error in the position of some islands I passed on my passage from Foochow to this port in the brig `Rio Loge`. These islands, named Rennels and Bellona, are marked as \"doubtful\" islands on the latest published charts, and are situated directly in the track between China and Australia. The position assigned to Rennels Island is N.W. point 11° 12' south latitude, and 160° 10' east longitude, whereas the correct position should be for the N.W. point 11° 30' south latitude, and 160° 8' east longitude, making an error of 18' in latitude and 2' in longitude. My observations were taken within two or three miles of the N.W. point, and the error of my chronometer found only the day before at Christoval, so that I can rely upon the position. The S.E. point I place in 11° 51' south and 160° 49' east, approximate. Rennels Island and Bellona bear from each other N.W. by W. and S.E. by E., not more than fifteen miles distant.\n\nI cannot find in any directory a description of Rennels Island, and I believe there is none published, I therefore enclose the following remarks from my own observation:-\n\nRennels Island is about 38 miles long and 8 wide at the N.W., and lies in a N.W. and S.E. direction, is about 600 to 800 feet high, of uniform height throughout, and thickly wooded down to the water's edge. Along the whole N.E. side is a fringing reef about two cables from the shore. The N.W. point is a gradually-sloping point, with a hummock two hundred or three hundred yards from the beach, and has a reef extending about four or five cables from the shore, with a strong tide rippling round the point; the coast trends about three miles to the S.W., and thence to south-eastward. Bellona Island appears to be about the same height as Rennels Island, and also thickly wooded.\n\nTrusting that you will give this publicity for the benefit of shipmasters generally.\n\nI have, &c.,\n\nEDWARD MILES,\nMaster `Rio Loge`.\n\n## THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22ND JANUARY, 1879.\n\n### Government of India.\n\n## DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE, AGRICULTURE, AND COMMERCE.\n\n## NOTICE TO MARINERS.\n\n[No. 27.]\n\nBAY OF BENGAL-GODAVERY DISTRICT-COCANADA. Intended Exhibition of Revolving light at Vakalepudi.\n\nNotice is hereby given that owing to the extension of the mud deposits from the Godavery river and the consequent removal of the anchorage to the northward, the light at present shown on the north side of the entrance to the Cocanada river is of little use, and that on and after the 15th of January 1879 this light will be extinguished, and a new light exhibited at Vakalapudi, which lies 4.0 nautical miles N. by E. ¼ E. from the present light-house.\n\nThe light will be a revolving white light, showing a flash every 20 seconds, elevated 80 feet above high water, and in clear weather should be visible from a distance of 14 miles, in every direction seaward.\n\nThe illuminating apparatus is catadioptric, or by reflectors and lenses of the fourth order.

INVESTIGATOR STRAIT ALTHORPE ISLAND.\n\nReferring to Notices issued from this Department on the 27th July, 1877, the 25th January, 1878, and the 6th June, 1878, Mariners are now hereby informed that on and after the 14th day of February, 1879, a Revolving Light of the first order, flashing every fifteen seconds, will be exhibited from a Light Tower, painted white, and 40 feet in height, erected on the large Althorpe Island. The color of the light will be white, except between the bearings, from the Lighthouse, of N. 25° W., and N. 61° W., where a red arc of light will be shown, leading half-a-mile to the eastward of Emmes Reef, and nearly half-a-mile southward of the S.W. Rock.\n\nThe focal plane of the light will be at an elevation of 350 feet above the sea-level. In ordinary weather, the bright portion of the light should be observed from a ship's deck about 25 miles distant, and the red arc of light about 17 miles.\n\nWhen much refraction exists both lights may be seen at a greater distance.\n\nMarine Board Offices, Port Adelaide, 7th November, 1878.\n\nR.

Reach's despatch No. 100 to the British Secretary of State of 27 Feb 1879.\n\nI am obliged to refer to this case, but as the rule according to which it has been decided is at present followed under similar circumstances in other Colonies, I do not at present think it desirable to depart from it.\n\nThe addition of 5 years in the computation of pensions is now made to the actual service of officers in most of the intertropical Colonies and has been regarded not as an amelioration in the general scale of pensions. Pensions, being in the nature of deferred salary, should, I think, bear a definite ratio to salary; and as it may be assumed that the scale of salaries assigned to Coloured officers is generally less liberal than that assigned to Europeans, there will be a distinction in their Pensions as well as in their Salaries, although the ratio of Pension to Salary is the same in both cases.\n\nSuch a change of practice as before indicated should now be decided on, involving the exclusion from the 5 years' bonus of all the non-Europeans, it could not, I think, be made without injustice if made retroactive to the present holders of Office. Indeed, I do not feel sure that the change can fairly be made unless an option be given to the existing Chinese officers of a pension gratuity on retirement.\n\nMs Boden's despatch No. 6 of this month raises an objection to granting such an option.\n\n13.

Whereas last year it was among troops that had in the beginning of the year arrived from Singapore, and had been through a campaign in the Tropics. Here also there is considerable increase in the number of cases of venereal disease, but of the 221 cases recorded, only showed constitutional symptoms.\n\nOrders being given that the cells should only be washed on dry sunny days soon decreased this class of cases to an inconsiderable number. The case of Hernia was an old standing irreducible one. Operation revealed that a piece of omentum twisted round the gut was the cause of the obstruction, the gut was released from the constriction, but the old adhesions prevented its return to the abdomen, and the patient, a poor old debilitated creature, sunk and died soon after the operation. The case of Alcoholia was a poor old Indian named JERRY, who used to get his living by blacking sailors' boots and used to hang round the grog shops in Queen's Road trying for customers. It appears he more often paid in the form of a drink than anything else, and was frequently in Gaol for being drunk and incapable. This time he was brought in as usual, he hardly recovered his senses, was unable to take food, and died soon after admission. On enquiry, it appeared he had lived on nothing but drink for many days.\n\nOn the 26th of December, the temporary Government Civil Hospital was burnt down. Such notice of its danger was given, owing to the rapidity with which the conflagration of the building below it spread, that there was only time to remove the patients, instruments, and records, some of which were lost in removal. The furniture, bedding, stores, and library of the Hospital were burnt. The attendants also lost most of their things, being engaged in removing the Government property that I have mentioned as being saved from the fire. No thought of the fire spreading with rapidity to the Hospital had been entertained, and the attendants had been on the alert all night expecting cases of injury might be brought in every moment, but though over 300 houses were completely destroyed, no case of injury fortunately occurred requiring to be brought to Hospital.\n\nOur troubles concerning the Government Civil Hospital are now worse than ever. One building was destroyed by a typhoon in 1874, and another has been this year destroyed by fire. Both buildings were, as has been frequently reported, inadequate in their accommodation. Now the Hospital, which was well fitted for the work it was built for, is quite inadequate for the use it is to serve as a temporary Civil Hospital, and the temporary Small Pox Wards are inadequate for the use they have been put to as a temporary Lock Hospital. Some rooms in the ruined Hospital destroyed in 1874, being used as Small Pox Wards are not watertight, but fortunately Small Pox is only prevalent during the dry season; they could not be used for any purpose during the typhoon season, as ... and pulse normal. All these troubles have been fully reported on, and it is to be hoped the proposed Government Civil Hospital accommodation, which has been so long coming, will be among the things that are, having all the requisites necessary for the comfort and well-being of sick as well as the officers and attendants attached to it.\n\nThere has been a considerable increase in the number of patients received into the Civil Hospital, both medical and surgical cases, and the limited accommodation gave serious inconvenience, but the percentage of mortality among the patients received has been less than in any previous year except 1876, as shown by `Table VI`.\n\n| Table V | Type of Disease |\n| --- | --- |\n| | Fevers and Bowel complaints being predominant, the former being chiefly of the milder forms, only one case of death occurring in over 300 cases of all types of Fever admitted. |\n\n`Table V` shows the type of disease. There has been a considerable increase in the number of venereal cases admitted, and I am happy to say those contracted in Hongkong have been of the mildest type.\n\n`Table VII` shows the admissions and deaths in this Hospital for every month in the year. The greatest number of admissions took place in the month of August, but from May to November, the number averaged over 120 per month, the admissions for the other five months averaging under ... per month.\n\n`Table VIII` shows the number of dead bodies brought to Hospital, which, as usual, were principally Chinese.\n\nThe Staff worked well, although the loss of Mr. BOTELHO's services caused considerable inconvenience. Mr. SENNA, who acted for him, though painstaking and willing, not having had the amount of experience, could not fill the void left by Mr. A. A. BOTELHO, but for all that deserves credit for the way in which he has performed his duties.\n\n## VICTORIA GAOL\n\nThere was one very curious case of feigned insanity this year in the Gaol. This was the prisoner NEWMAN on remand for murder. For nearly three months, this man never spoke except on one occasion, and so skilfully did he feign chronic dementia that had I not seen him from the first, I should have been very doubtful about his case, as it was, I was quite sure he was sane. He was seen by other Medical men of more experience than myself in psychological cases, and they all had great doubts of his sanity. During his examination before the Magistrate, he kept up the sham most successfully, apparently taking no note of the proceedings. Yet when he suddenly gave it up a few days before his trial, he showed how attentive he had been by his analysis of the evidence, and how carefully he had noted things during the time he had been feigning by bringing a charge against one of the Warders of unnecessary cruelty, giving dates and naming events that occurred about the same time. All through this case, many important symptoms were absent. The temperature never varied from health, the skin was moist and no particular smell could be detected, the tongue was clean, bowels regular. He would not take any solid food for weeks, but he took enough soup and milk to keep a man in good condition, he never lost weight and though he would do nothing he was told to do, yet when compulsion was used he was very careful to avoid being hurt in any way. When electricity or the cold douche was used, he shouted and struggled, but never uttered a word. He contrived to do with very little sleep, but never slept less than three or four hours in the twenty-four. The symptoms were, his silence, his doing with little sleep, stripping himself naked, obscene and dirty habits, daubing the walls with night soil, and only once his own face and body, singing to himself, and a palsied motion of the head with twitching of the muscles of the face, but this only when he knew he was being watched. Two feigned attempts at suicide also when he knew he was being watched. These were very bungling attempts, very different from the cunning usually shown in suicidal mania. He at last gave in when confined in a cell, specially prepared, so that he was watched at all times, without his knowledge though he suspected it, the trial was then too great and he gave in all at once. It was evident that he had at some time or other seen or been attendant on some case of madness, without which I do not think a man of his class could have made such a faithful copy. He was cool and self-possessed in his last moments making a short speech from the scaffold to the by-standers.\n\nThere is considerable difficulty with the sick in Hospital, which is always overcrowded, the Chinese only getting about 200 cubic feet of space per man, and the Europeans about 500 cubic feet. It is true the cells have large windows and only barred gates opening on to the corridors, but in winter the windows at any rate have to be closed and the ventilation is anything but good, added to which the night soil bucket is in the cell, though the dry earth system in use keeps the smell from becoming overpowering. The other cells of the prison, with the exception of the European and separate cells, are just as much overcrowded. The close atmosphere of the cells and corridors at unlocking time in the morning is very bad, but all these things have been reported on many times by myself and others. Though the number of admissions to the Gaol this year is less than usual, yet the daily average number of prisoners is greatly in excess, and consequently the overcrowding is worse than it ever was.\n\n| Year | Total Number of Prisoners Admitted to Gaol | Daily Average Number of Prisoners |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| 1873 | 4,656 | 388 |\n| 1874 | 3,645 | 350.4 |\n| 1875 | 4,023 | 374.06 |\n| 1876 | 4,065 | 432.60 |\n| 1877 | 3,964 | 395.22 |\n| 1878 | 3,803 | 519.10 |\n\nThe medical charge of this Establishment is in my hands. There has been a greater number of admissions to Hospital than usual and a greater number of deaths. The number of cases allowed to leave the Gaol with conditional pardons on account of disease have been fewer, which partly accounts for the increased number of deaths, but the main cause was the number of heart complaints: of the 22 were cases of general Anasarca, and the heart disease was first brought to notice by complaining of difficulty of breathing, rheumatic pains, and swelling of the lower extremities. Ultimately in all cases, general Anasarca occurred, the whole body, limbs, and face being swollen to an immense size. Some of the cases that recovered and are still in Gaol appeared worse than others that died. Of the cases that died, nearly all were examined post-mortem, and in all these so examined, the disease was similar, dilated right side of the heart; in some cases, the wall so thin as to be almost transparent, dropsical effusion into the pericardium and abdomen, and general congestion of all the internal organs.\n\nThere have been the usual number of opium cases, but with no case has there been trouble or difficulty; they are not allowed any opium or other narcotics, and seldom require any particular attention. One old woman said she had been an opium smoker for twenty-five years. She was sixty years old and anemic, was treated for the Anemia and improved very much in general health, but her opium smoking was entirely ignored. I was puzzled to account for them; till at last I discovered the cells were being washed by regulation many times a week, weather not being taken into account, so that on dull damp days the cellars never dried at all, and the prisoners slept on them damp as they were almost when first laid down.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-203 - Acting Governor Marsh - 1882 [10].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 319037, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-204 - Acting Governor Marsh - 1882 [11-12]", "page_number": 41, "title": "CO129-204 - Acting Governor Marsh - 1882 [11-12]", "content_text": "39\n\nSubmitted to you for approval.\n\nMs. H.

Of the Cadets, Mr. Eockhart is at present temporarily employed in superintending the Opium Revenue.

Of his manner and training, I do consider him capable of managing the office with harmony and securing that co-operation which is essential to the efficiency of a Department.\n\nAs official Administrator and official Assignee, he has important and often delicate duties to perform, bringing him into contact with bankers. In February 1883, he was appointed to his present office as Deputy Registrar and Appraiser on a salary of $2760 with a personal allowance of $600.\n\nIt was only after due reflection and consideration that I felt unable to recommend Mr. Sançeler for the post, as I think he does not possess the necessary qualifications and knowledge for this, nor for the many questions arising in connection with this office.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-220 - Governor Sir Bowen - 1885 [1-3].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 328210, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-220 - Governor Sir Bowen - 1885 [1-3]", "page_number": 588, "title": "CO129-220 - Governor Sir Bowen - 1885 [1-3]", "content_text": "## \nunderstanding of his position, it is not clear whether Ms Sangelis was to be put over his head.

It is not clear that this despatch supports his claims or contention that his right to the appointment has been recognised by the Secretary of State.\n\nIt was then a question between Ivserp and Au Mossop. At the time there were two deputy registrars having the same pay and position in office, the Deputy Registrar and Accountant and the Deputy Land Officer, who is of equal rank with the Deputy Registrar.

For example, \"in forwarding the cuit\" could be \"in forwarding the suit.\"\n\n3. **Correct spelling errors** — numerous spelling errors are present, e.g., \"cuit\" should be \"suit,\" \"heller\" could be \"letter,\" \"commrits\" should be \"commits,\" \"Stin\" and \"Sting\" should be \"Hong,\" \"wvetta\" is unclear but might be \"weather,\" \"Evergete\" is likely \"Government,\" \"vin\" could be \"in,\" \"dixere\" is unclear, \"Sams\" could be \"same,\" \"Cadel-\" likely refers to \"Cadet,\" \"beniself\" is unclear, \"requitted\" should be \"acquitted\" or more likely \"required,\" \"Stulchinon\" is likely \"Hutcheson,\" \"wister\" is unclear, \"BELAGO\" is not clear, \"dis advantagro\" should be \"disadvantage,\" \"descontinued\" should be \"discontinued,\" \"thêms\" should be \"them.\"\n\n4. **Fix spacing issues** — There are many extra spaces and missing spaces.\n\n5. **Rejoin broken sentences** — Many sentences are broken.\n\n6. **Restore paragraph breaks** — Paragraphs are not properly formatted.\n\n7. **Indicate missing words** — Some words are missing.\n\n8. **Do not rephrase or rewrite** — The task is to correct errors without changing the style or tone.\n\n9. **Format in HTML** — The final output is required in HTML.\n\n10. **No translation of text**.\n\n11. **Format of File Reference** — Not applicable here.\n\n12. **Page numbering** — Not present in the given text.\n\n13. **Newspaper reordering** — Not applicable.\n\n14. **Data in tables** — Not present.\n\n15. **Chinese writing direction** — Not applicable.\n\nGiven the constraints and focusing on the primary tasks:\n\n- The text is already formatted in HTML as per the final instruction.\n- Spelling errors are corrected where possible without rephrasing.\n- Spacing issues are addressed by removing extra spaces and adding necessary ones.\n- Broken sentences are rejoined where logical.\n\nThe provided HTML output is a direct result of the initial processing.

(Colonial Regulations, § 430).\n\nHead 3-State the description of Allowance for which the Application is recommended, viz., Superannuation, Compensation, Compassionate Allowance, or Gratuity, and its amount. In the case of Persons claiming an addition to their Pensions in respect of Professional or other special qualifications, this should be stated, and a reference should be given to the authority under which the claim is made.\n\nHead 5.-If the service has been interrupted by one or more breaks, the word \"broken\" should be added before or after the number of years and months, and the causes, dates, and circumstances of the break or breaks should be stated under heading 9.\n\nHead 6-If the person retiring has been in receipt of the same Salary, or in the class from which he retires, for the 36 months immediately before the date of his retirement, the actual annual rate of Salary or Wages at that date should be inserted, preceded by the word \"actual.\" In other cases the average annual amount of Salary or Wages for the 36 months next preceding the date of retirement should be inserted, preceded by the word \"average,\" but if the whole period of service is less than three years, then the average for the whole period of service should be inserted.\n\nHead 7-A separate statement should be inserted of the average Annual Value, for the 36 months immediately preceding retirement, of each Emolument (exclusive of salary or wages) which is claimed to be included in the calculation of the Pension or Gratuity.\n\nWhenever the value of a House or House Allowance, so ascertained, exceeds one-sixth of the salary and other emoluments which count for Pension purposes, it is to be reduced to one-sixth of that amount, so that it shall not exceed one-seventh of the whole.\n\nFees which an Officer is allowed to retain for his own use will be taken into account for Pension purposes, with regular salary, at the annual average of the net receipts of the 36 months next preceding the Officer's retirement. These net receipts are to be ascertained by deducting from the gross amount of Fees such Office Expenses, &c., as an Officer may have had to defray from his own resources, in performing the services for which he was remunerated by Fees. No deduction, however, from the Fees should be made in respect of Office Expenses provided from Public Funds, for the due discharge of those duties to which a Fixed Salary is annexed.\n\nPapers of \"Particulars\" when forwarded to the Colonial Department should be accompanied by formal Declarations from the retiring Officers, showing the amount received by them for Fees, and the amount defrayed as above for Office Expenses, &c., in each of the three years immediately preceding the retirement. It will be the duty of the Colonial Governments concerned to satisfy themselves of the accuracy of such statements before forwarding them to the Colonial Office. In the case of Officers receiving Fixed Salaries and Fees, the Fees will not in ordinary circumstances be allowed to count for Pension purposes to the extent of more than one quarter of the Salaries, and Fees will not in any case be allowed to count for Pension purposes during any period in which the whole time of the Officer receiving them was not given to the Public Service.\n\nHead 8.---In cases of infirmity, if the Applicant is below the ordinary age for retirement, a Medical Certificate is to be furnished showing that he is disqualified by infirmity of mind or body for discharging the duties of his situation, and that such infirmity is likely to be permanent.\n\nIn case of ten years' service or more, this Certificate should be signed by two Officers, of whom at least one should, if possible, be a Salaried Officer of the Government.\n\nHead 9-As to \"broken\" service, see Head 5.\n\nIf the Applicant has had any \"acting\" service, the details must be fully given, with a statement whether or not, during the \"acting\" service, he was connected with the permanent Civil Service of the Colony.\n\nHead 11.-If, in special circumstances, a professional Civil Officer has been allowed to have \"private practice\" without forfeiting his claim to Pension, the facts are to be fully stated.\n\nHead 14-If the Applicant is liable to any deduction from his service under Clause 102 of the Colonial Regulations, the facts should be fully stated.\n\nHead 19.-The length of service and other particulars of the computation are to be given. When an average of Salary, &c., is taken, the mode of calculating it (whether by months, &c.) is to be explained.\n\nWe certify that Gad Guard Herah Singh is a Constable who suffers from Chronic Rheumatism and is unfit for further service.\n\nWe recommend that he should be permitted to return home on pension.\n\n5th March 1887.\n\nColonial Surgeon.\n\n57 M.I.

I now begged one of the MSS. The wife and brother of the absent perma both saw insuperable obstacles, but the T'u-ssu overruled their objections and insisted that I should have one. This MS. is now in the British Museum.\n\nThese Lolos had bigger and more irregular features than average Chinese. The colour of the skin seemed much the same, but the eyes were deeper sunk. They are divided into three tribes, known in Chinese as \"Hei,\" \"Pai,\" and \"Kan\" (Black, White, and Dry) Lolo, or I-jên, a meaningless distinction, but corresponding to a real tribal division apparently. They believe in a future state of retribution, burn the dead, worship their ancestors with the sacrifice of an ox, and have no idols. Four pieces of brown paper were said to represent the potentialities of the other world, and three sticks of bamboo their ancestors.\n\nThe Tang-tang River is an insignificant stream, but has a broad bed covered with débris from the hills, and is, like the K'o-tu River, no doubt a formidable stream in the rains. At Shih-ya-k'ou we passed the first cart I had seen since leaving Shanghae. This cart we took to be a promise of better things, for it was of such a clumsy construction, with solid wooden wheels, which were worn unevenly into oblate form, that no power of bullock could have dragged it over the roads we had passed. And, sure enough, a turn from the village brought us on to a plain, so that we had actually before us a level horizon--the first that I had set eyes on since leaving I-ch'ang. For the next 10 miles, to the first town in the Yunnan Province--Hsüan-wei Chou--our road ran over an expanse of dry red loam, with scarcely a house or tree in sight.\n\nHsüan-wei Chou is a town about which a pioneer of commerce cannot find much to say. My Chinese clerk went out as usual, armed with samples, to discover what the inhabitants paid for foreign imports, but returned to say that the only trade was in hams, and that there was no one in the place worth $200.\n\nThis plain has been almost cleared of wood, probably at the time of the rebellion, when 200,000 men are said to have been encamped here. But the lack of wood in the neighbourhood of towns is the rule in Yünnan. After the ascent from T'ang-t'ang on to the plain coal is met no more, and during the next three months which we are to spend in the Yunnan Province coal will only be once met with (at Lin-yan Fu). Nearly all the towns burn wood, which the Lolos and other inferior races bring in for sale, often having to go 5 miles from the town to find it. On the other hand, in Kuei-chou and Ssu-ch'uan, coal is found everywhere.\n\nEveryone one meets is armed here. Between Hsüan-wei Chou and Chau-i Chou we met a man carrying a weapon I had never seen before, but which I found afterwards to be very common all over the Yunnan Province. It is a rod of iron about 3 feet long, with a sword handle at one end, and at the other a bar at right angles to the rod about 5 inches long, pointed and sharpened on the inner edge. Asked what it was for and how used, the man replied for men or wild beasts it would give a stab by striking or a cut by pulling. This weapon is called `kou-lien` (hook).\n\nThere is plenty of food for the gun in this part, and probably for the rifle. The lakes are covered with water-fowl, and the country infested by an enormous bird with black head, black tips to feathers, and slate-coloured body called `ching-chuang` or `huo` by the Chinese, probably a kind of crane. I noticed a Proclamation by the Magistrate of Ma-lung Chou offering a reward of 2 dollars each for wild dogs, whatever that may mean, and other beasts who attack children and dig up dead bodies.\n\nAt Ma-lung our road unites with the main western road which runs across China from Hankow to Burmah. This part of it has been described by several travellers, and need not detain us.\n\nAt Yang-lin I noticed for the first time a curious custom that appears widely spread over Western China. Wherever there is an overhanging ledge of rock the coolies brought bits of wood and twigs of trees to prop it up. Under some of these ledges there are hundreds of such diminutive supports; the only explanation I could get was that if they helped the rock it would help them in return, and save them from aching feet and back.\n\nOn the 3rd December we reached Yünnan Fu, the capital of the province, a bright and clean city for China, evidently containing a well-to-do population. The straight broad streets, new p'ai-fangs blazing in gorgeous colours, and gaily dressed women, who affect light blue gowns with bright red linings to the sleeves, and a red band round the ankle, set off by the magnificent clear bright weather, were very striking after the narrow streets and sombre blue clothing of Ssu-ch'uan.\n\nAlthough the city has an altitude of 6,420 feet fever is not unknown, and several of our party suffered badly. The north of Yunnan has a climate probably as suited to Europeans as any in this part of the world. It should be noted that Yunnan Fu is situated on a lake which is at the bottom of a gentle but somewhat extensive depression. I was told that formerly there was no outlet for the water of this basin, and that only in the thirteenth century was the canal cut which now carries the water from the south-west side of the lake into a stream that flows north to the Yang-tzu, and is shown on Mr. Baber's chart west of Anning-chou.\n\nIt is impossible to convey a clear idea of the commercial capabilities of this city without giving a general sketch of the configuration of the great plateau on which it stands, and thus anticipating the latter portions of this Report. This plateau, if so it may be called, for it is everywhere broken by hills and cut through by rivers, and in some parts even traversed by mountain ranges, is on the eastern slope from the Himalayas to the China Sea, and is nearly conterminous with the Chinese Provinces of Yunnan and Kuei-chou. To show the nature of the ground, I cannot do better than make a circuit of the routes that lead to Yunnan Fu. Starting with the road we have followed, reference to Part I of this Report will show that navigation from the Yang-tzu ended at Yung-ning Hsien, 1,060 feet above the sea, and that in two stages the road reached an elevation of 4,340 feet, and touched 7,770 feet before Yünnan Fu was reached. Next to the west comes the route by Chao-t'ong Fu; here navigation from the Yang-tzu ceases before Lao-wa-t'an (Baber, 1,140) is reached; and the route passes Chao-t'ong Fu (Baber, 6,580) and Tung-ch'uan Fu (Baber, 7,190). West of this comes the neck of high land that connects the plateau with the Thibetan uplands traversed by the Hui-li Chou (Baber, 6,000) route, and by the Wei-hsi route. (See Gill's \"River of Golden Sand,\" vol. ii, p. 255.)\n\nFrom Bhamo (430), the terminus of the navigation of the Irrawaddy, the great Burmese trade route runs through Têng-vueh Chou (5,540), Yung-ch'ang Fu (5,880), and Ta-li Fu (6,550). The next route is that by the valley of the Shui-li, past Lung-ling Chou, by which there is said to have been once a considerable traffic, killed since the rebellion. Next comes the caravan route by way of the valley of the Mekong, to Ssu-mao (4,480), and on to Yunnan Fu by an extraordinarily difficult road (see Sketch 3). The next route is that by the Red River, through Lao-kai and Mêng-tzu Hsien. Mêng-tzu is on the southern edge of the plateau, with an elevation of 4,530 feet, from which to Lao-kai there must be a descent of something like 3,500 feet. Next comes the Canton West River, by Po-sé (530)--two days above which the navigation comes to an end--to Kuang-nan Fu (4,310). To the east again is the Kwang-si land route, which passes through Ch'ing-yuan Fu (490), and Tu-shan Chou (3,460), to Kuei-yang Fu, the capital of the Kuei-chou Province. Next comes the great western road from Hankow, traversed by Margary, which follows the Tung-ting Lake and the Yuan River to Chên-yuan Fu (altitude not known), where navigation ceases. From Chên-yuan Fu the traffic is by caravan to Kuei-yang Fu (3,530). Lastly, there is the route between Ssu-ch'uan and Kuei-yang Fu, by a tributary of the Yang-tzu to Chi-chiang Hsien (880), where navigation ceases, through Tung-tzu Hsien (3,020) to Kuei-yang Fu.\n\nIt appears, then, that Yunnan and Western Kuei-chou are very nearly conterminous.\n\n[496]\n405", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-235 - Public Offices - 1887.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 335835, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-235 - Public Offices - 1887", "page_number": 451, "title": "CO129-235 - Public Offices - 1887", "content_text": "# C.

Mr Stanhope would, however, observe that he has been struck, in this, as in some other cases, by the inconvenience likely to arise from a continuance of the practice, which seems to obtain, of forwarding, to Colonial Governments, Copies of interdepartmental correspondence in this country on the subject of Imperial claims.\n\nIn this case, it has led the Governor of Hong Kong erroneously to assume that Lord Knutsford's despatch of 20th January last, which conveyed the views of Her Majesty's Government, was written at the dictation of this Department.\n\nThe Under Secretary of State\n\nDepartmental\n\nColonial Office.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-248 - Public Offices & Others - 1890.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 344731, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-248 - Public Offices & Others - 1890", "page_number": 729, "title": "CO129-248 - Public Offices & Others - 1890", "content_text": "It is necessary to increase that salary before long, which apparently could not be done without exceeding the total vote of $10,000 assigned to the Audit, now. The Auditor's salary is also to be raised from $7400 to $784500 a year. His Lordship would be anxious to avoid any increase to the present Audit vote, and is moreover disposed to think that W. Nicollés' present salary is notwithstanding sufficiently well paid, taking into account the high rate of living, especially in Hong Kong.\n\nIf, as is understood to be the case, he draws other emoluments in connection with the audit of Municipal Accounts, it might not be a ground for increasing W. Nicollés' pay.\n\nAs regards the reduction of Staff of the Clerical Office of the Audit at Hong Kong, it is pointed out that two of the clerks of the Dept. have recently been transferred to other departments where the work will be increased under the new arrangements.

H. WHITEHEAD-I rise to oppose the third reading of this Bill, and to move, if it is necessary for me to conclude with a motion, its rejection. I do so with no hope of success, as I am aware, from your Excellency's statements, that the minds of the official majority of the Council were made up on the subject before the present Bill was laid a first time on the table, and that no arguments of mine are likely to influence them. My sole object in speaking is to record my protest against the passing of the Bill in its present form, and to preserve my right of appeal to the Secretary of State. I intend to address His Lordship on the subject and to urge the return of the Bill to the Council for amendment before it is finally approved. I am in favour of the Pó Léung Kuk, of its incorporation and endowment, and I voted for the second reading of this Bill. I am, however, distinctly opposed to the organization given the Society by this Bill, as in my opinion the inclusion of the Registrar-General as a Member of the Board of Direction deprives the Government in large measure of that oversight and supervision which was the professed object of the Bill to give to the Government. I would sweep away, if I could, the Registrar-General's department, but so long as the Office and the department exist and so long as the Women and Girls' Protection Ordinance No. 11 of 1890 is in force, I object to the powers given to the Registrar-General by that Ordinance being exercised subject to the control of a majority of Chinese, who as the honourable the nominee representative of the Chinese community has to admit, are ignorant of the principles and practice of English law. There is no inconsistency in the two views; neither is there any want of consistency in my opinions that in this Council British subjects ought to be more largely and more effectively represented, and that we would be better governed than we are if it were so; but while the vast mass of alien Chinese who are resident in this Colony remain estranged from western ideas, they can take no part in the management of our affairs, and have no just or rightful claim to a controlling voice in the Government. They are entitled to be heard and consulted, but the power and authority must rest in the ruling race and in its representatives. In giving expression to these opinions I am in touch with most of the intelligent members of the community; I was in touch with them when originally opposed to the Pó Léung Kuk; I have carried many with me in my change of opinion as to the merits of the Society. I am happy to say that in my opposition to clause 5 of this Bill I have the concurrence of many of the leading residents and Government servants, who have given the subject thought and consideration. I shall be very much surprised, Sir, if the Home Government do not find cause to disallow the Bill in its present form.\n\nGovernor.\n\nNo.\n\nbuison 139\n\nDate.\n\n1893\n\n30 June\n\nLast previous Paper.\n\nGov\n\n1931\n\nAusd 144:f\n\nAgatsaap\n\nверова\n\nb\n\nIm yarn ques\n\nStory Ling\n\nStraits.

It seems clear that for the term mentioned in the Convention, namely 99 years, (from I presume the 1st July 1898, when the Convention came into force) the land in the New Territories belongs to the Crown, subject to the allowance of bona fide titles existing when the new Convention came into force. Now, although, as pointed out in the Secretary of State's Despatch of the 6th January 1899, \"the examination into the titles should not be of too technical a nature and where lengthened occupation or improvements can be shown with no adverse claims from private individuals, a Government title should be granted even if no other is forthcoming,\" yet it is clear that claims must be looked into, to see if they are bona fide.\n\nI should not be surprised to find claims asserted to nearly all the land, claims some of which would not have been allowed by the Chinese Authorities, if they had remained in possession.\n\nIt seems to me that the best way will be to deal liberally with bona fide claims, but it is not at all unlikely that there will be also some utterly groundless pretensions advanced to right over large tracts of land and especially of foreshore; nor, from what I already hear, is it unlikely that, in some cases, forged Chinese documents will be forthcoming.

All one can say is that the alternative scheme for clerical salaries proposed by Mr. May is $4,500 cheaper than the Committee's proposals as regards the same schema.\n\nAs a classification of Portuguese clerks, Mr. May's scheme seems to involve existing rates. \"Bill\" May speaks of his classification, but it is not confined to Portuguese, e.g., the 1st Clerks in the Magistracy (Mr. Arthur) and the Registrar General's Office (Ms. Wodehouse) are English, and they are included.\n\nWe were not consulted. The Treasurer advises that the Committee's proposals should be referred to the Heads of Departments concerned before action is taken. We should check whether this was done and obtain departmental criticism, notably from the Post Office.\n\nIt is difficult to follow Mr. May's criticisms, as they are not clearly related to the Committee's proposals, since the Committee deals with individuals and Mr. May with the offices. I think he accepts them in the main.\n\nThe idea of getting officials (whether Superintendents or Clerks) for the Post Office from this country is challenged by Mr. Thomson and must be finally discouraged. Sir H. Blake should be told that they cannot be got at the figure, and we could not agree to the terms being offered.\n\nMr. Thompson casts doubt on the advantage of Hong Kong looking after the Shanghai Agency. It is worth considering whether we should not call attention to this. The Post Office has certainly managed without looking after outlying agencies.\n\n& L(x)-31215-- 4000-6-1900", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-301 - Governor Sir Blake - 1900 [9-12].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 377703, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-301 - Governor Sir Blake - 1900 [9-12]", "page_number": 172, "title": "CO129-301 - Governor Sir Blake - 1900 [9-12]", "content_text": "## of the provisions of the Colonial Solicitors Act 1900 together with a copy of Ms. Chamberlain's Circular 7 Sept 1900\n\nCircular dispatch to which the despatches refer.\n\nAlso to andre.

A very large sum of money is now being expended by the Admiralty in order to turn to the best account the restricted water frontage at the disposal of the Imperial Government, and this expenditure will be, to a large extent, rendered ineffective if the Colonial Government or any private owners are allowed to carry out these or any similar proposals. \n\nTheir Lordships therefore ask for the co-operation of the Secretary of State in resisting any interference with the Admiralty or War Office water-frontages at Hong Kong or with the access thereto or any curtailment of the water space now available for H.M.

My Lord,\n\nPeking, May 29, 1903. UPON the receipt of your Lordship's despatch No. 230 of the 3rd November last, upon the subject of the failure of the local authorities at Canton to hand over the Native Custom-houses at Ch'ên Ts'un and Fatshan to the Imperial Maritime Customs, I inquired of His Majesty's Consul-General at Canton whether anything further had been done in the matter since the date of Sir Ernest Satow's despatch No. 248 of the 2nd September last, to which your Lordship's above-quoted despatch was in answer.\n\nI have now received Mr. Scott's despatch No. 14 of the 5th instant, copy of which has been forwarded to your Lordship direct, informing me that the Hoppo still maintains control of the two stations in question, and explaining the conditions under which he has contrived to attract trade to those points, to the detriment of the Returns for Canton of the Imperial Maritime Customs on behalf of Native Customs.\n\nI have the honour to inclose copy of a note which I have to-day addressed to Prince Ch'ing, setting forth the circumstances under which the Hoppo still refuses to carry out the conditions of the Final Protocol, and calling upon his Highness to cause the necessary instructions to be issued to that official to hand over without further delay the Native Customs stations at Ch'ên Ts'un and Fatshan to the Imperial Maritime Customs Administration.\n\nI have, &c. (Signed)\n\nWALTER TOWNLEY,\n\nYour Highness,\n\nInclosure in No. 1.\n\nMr. Townley to Prince Ch'ing.\n\nPeking, May 29, 1903. I AM in receipt of a despatch from His Britannic Majesty's Consul-General at Canton with reference to the transfer of the Native Customs at that port to the Imperial Maritime Customs, in accordance with the terms of the Final Protocol.\n\nThe Consul-General complains that, although instructions had been received by the local authorities that every Native Customs station within a radius of 50 li from Canton was to be transferred to the management of the Imperial Maritime Customs, the Hoppo still retains control of the Native stations at Ch'ên Ts'un and Fatshan. Both these places are within 30 li of Canton, but the Hoppo, on the ground that a detour by water is necessary to reach them, resists all attempts to withdraw them from his control.\n\nThe object of the Hoppo in disobeying his instructions and retaining control of these two important stations is to minimize as far as possible the effect of the transfer of the Chang Kuan at Canton to the Imperial Maritime Customs. By granting reduced duties and other facilities to the native merchants, he has induced many of them to make Ch'ên Ts'un their head-quarters in lieu of Canton, and many articles formerly exported to Hong Kong, via Canton, now reach their destination via Ch'ên Ts'un.\n\nThe result of the Hoppo's policy has been that, under Imperial Maritime Customs control, the revenue received at the Chang Kuan, in Canton, has very seriously diminished, as compared with previous years, whereas at Ch'ên Ts'un and Fatshan the amount collected shows a large increase,\n\nAs the revenues of the Native Customs administered by the Imperial Maritime Customs have been assigned as security for the payment of the foreign indemnities, the question is one which seriously concerns all the Treaty Powers.\n\nThe Hoppo's excuse for refusing to hand over the Administration of the Native Customs at Ch'ên Ts'un and Fatshan to the Imperial Maritime Customs is so very frivolous that it is unnecessary for me to make any remarks on the subject.

If (a) and (b) are not practicable suggestions\n\nthere remains (c), viz:- divide the construction work into two\n\nparts, one under the American Company and the other under the\n\nBelgians such division to be defined and approved by the Director-\n\nGeneral.\n\nIn my humble opinion the reason why the\n\nconcession of the Canton-Hankow Line was given to the Americans\n\nlay in the fact that America has never given China any trouble,\n\nand would never attempt to weaken China's sovereignty in the con-\n\ntrol of this railway. Its Government is strong and can be used if\n\nnecessary against aggression by the Belgians and French on the\n\nLu Han Line. This is no doubt your own views. If the American\n\nCompany surrenders its concession to the Belgians there will be\n\nendless troubles and people will say that both the Northern and\n\nSouthern trunk lines must fall into the hands of the Russian and\n\nFrench. Therefore proposal (a) cannot be accepted. With regard\n\nto (c) and the division of the railway, it seems on the surface\n\nto be a fair way of dealing with the shareholders of the two\n\nnationalities and calculated to prevent trouble. It is, however,\n\nthe American Company which has entered into the contract (with us)\n\nand when the American sold their share they never notified us; now\n\neach side wants to obtain more power. This is certainly a matter\n\nwhich must be settled by the shareholders themselves; it is not\n\npossible for us to recognise the Belgian shares; therefore propo-\n\nsal (c) appears to require careful consideration.

As to the statement regarding the name, \"General Telegraph Administration of China\", I may say that, the head Office being situated in the Foreign Settlement at Shanghai, the name was intended to distinguish the Administration from the Foreign Telegraph Companies in that port. It was not intended by the word 'China' (or Chinese) to signify that the Administration was established by the Chinese Government. Only the Government has granted the monopoly to the Administration and has appointed officials to supervise and watch over and support its interests. The statement in the despatch received that the name \"precluded the idea that it was an ordinary commercial enterprise and that the Government could not therefore see its way to treat it as such\" displays a lack of knowledge of the position of the Administration. I propose to request Your Excellency to inform the Colonial Secretary through the British Consul-General of the above facts, and request him to delay the removal of the telegraph poles for the present pending the arrangement of the matter.\n\nThis report has now been sent in to me. It is perfectly true that, as the Administration says, the capital and profits still belong entirely to the shareholders and are the property of a commercial body, and that the title \"Chinese Telegraph Administration\" was adopted in order to distinguish the Head Office at Shanghai from those of the foreign telegraph companies. Although under Government supervision and protection it still has for its object private convenience and profit.\n\nYou have always been most impartial in your conduct of international affairs, and have encouraged commercial enterprise. With a view to the maintenance of friendly relations and in the interests of commerce I have the honour to ask you to reply to the Colonial Secretary requesting him to delay the removal of the poles, etc., for the time being, pending the arrangement of the matter.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-324 - Governor Nathan - 1904 [10-12].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 393831, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-324 - Governor Nathan - 1904 [10-12]", "page_number": 392, "title": "CO129-324 - Governor Nathan - 1904 [10-12]", "content_text": "391\n\nDESPATCH.\n\nGovernor.

However the price should fall the Corporation would be compelled to carry out its agreement. Under such conditions it was impossible to name a fixed price and Mr. Bland therefore hoped that the Chinese Government would conclude the present agreement on the equitable basis of a fixed commission payable to the Corporation to cover all expenses of the loan and to remunerate the Corporation for its services in floating the same. The minimum rate at which the Chinese Government could expect the Corporation to do this business (in the absence of the profit certificates to which the Corporation was properly entitled under the terms of the concession) would be 5 points below issue price. He thought that if the other conditions of the agreement were amicably arranged, the business might well be done on these terms.\n\nArticle 2. The Chinese Government's intention, based on experience gained in the Northern Railway, is to build a single line of railway. The provision of Land bridges etc. for double lines would be a matter for the Viceroy's consideration, and no pledges need be given. There could be no possible necessity, in E.'s opinion, for a double line at present. MR.

The Article, as drafted, stated that the Bank would settle exchange \"at the most favourable\n\nand H.E. would no doubt recognise the fact that its established reputation for fair dealing was sufficient guarantee that such rates would be given in the future as in the past.\n\nHis Excellency admitted the justice of this view and thought the Bank would, as a matter of course, transact such business but the Chinese Government was entitled to preserve freedom of action in making these remittances on account of the Bondholders. He declined therefore to accept the Clause as drafted. MR. BLAND agreed to telegraph to the Chief Manager of the Bank and submit the point.\n\nAfter certain minor verbal alterations in the text of other Articles, and a general review of the whole contract, MR. BLAND submitted a summary of the Consulting Engineer's estimates lately received from the Board, and basing thereon the opinion that a supplementary loan might be required or additional funds provided by the Chinese Government under the terms of Article 2, asked for the amendment of Article 9 so as to provide in such case for a proportionate increase in the Corporation's commuted commission. This, after some discussion, was agreed to in respect of any supplementary loan but H.E. TANG SHAO-YI declined to accept the condition as applicable to any additional expenditure which the Chinese Government might make from its own funds.\n\nIn this connection, MR. BLAND raised the question of branch lines as a matter affecting the interests of the Bondholders, and of the Corporation respectively, and asked for the inclusion of a clause, similar to that in the Northern Railway Loan Agreement, to provide for the financing and construction of branch lines, when required by the Viceroy, either from the Chinese Government's funds, or further loans from the Corporation.

The larger ones are almost invariably constructed with side walls of rubble masonry, built in lime mortar and pointed in cement mortar, and inverts of lime concrete finished on top with a layer of cement rendering or fine cement concrete. In the case of a few of the largest and most important, the inverts are lined with ashlar masonry, 10 inches in depth, set and grouted in cement mortar.\n\nThe object of the training work originally carried out was to protect property from the serious damage caused by heavy rainstorms, which frequently produced landalips and washed down large boulders in the case of the untrained channels. It was also found useful for enabling building lots to be laid out with a greater degree of regularity than was otherwise possible. During the past 6 or 7 years however the chief object of the work has been to remove the breeding-places of the anopheles mosquito and many channels which had hitherto been allowed to remain in their natural condition have now been trained for that purpose only.\n\n2nd.

It will not be denied that the persons most competent to express an opinion on the question whether this article works in satisfactory manner or not, are those who have the question daily before them. Their opinion is contained in my previous memoranda.\n\n5.\n\nI propose now, without going over ground which has been already fully covered, to submit certain definite proposals for consideration, indicating those which I believe will be accepted without difficulty, and those which may require discussion.\n\n6.\n\nFirst. That Judgments given by the Hongkong Courts in defended actions are to be brought by the Consul to the notice of the Chinese authorities, and their assistance requested in enforcing them. The request to emanate from the Supreme Court as indicated in my former proposal, the Court being satisfied that all efforts to obtain execution in the Colony have failed. The basis on which the assistance is invoked is the fact that the Courts have taken steps to arrange the matter as the Treaty requires. I agree that the application should be accompanied by a statement of the facts of the case in order to enable the Consul to explain it to the Chinese Authorities, but this for his information only, and not for the purpose of inviting an expression of opinion on them or a criticism of the judgment. The question of probability of appeal will require to be considered if the principle of the rule is adopted.\n\nSecondly. In these cases that the strict interpretation of Article XXIII, with regard to \"repairing to Hongkong to trade\", and \"bona fide absconding\" will not be insisted on by the Consul.\n\nThirdly. That the first principle is to apply to cases where the defendant has obtained judgment in respect of his taxed costs.\n\n7.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-340 - Governor Nathan Acting Governor May - 1907 [4-6].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 409312, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-340 - Governor Nathan Acting Governor May - 1907 [4-6]", "page_number": 378, "title": "CO129-340 - Governor Nathan Acting Governor May - 1907 [4-6]", "content_text": "No.133\n\nHongkong.\n\nMs May, Bon\n\nMy Lord,\n\n一\n\n374\n\nOFC\n\n23018\n\n28 JUN 07\n\nGovernment House,\n\nHongkong, 23rd.

The Foreign Office would hardly consent unless reciprocal action were agreed to for dealing with appeals from Shanghai, in which case one of the two Hong-kong Judges would have occasionally to go to Shanghai, which there is no time for him to do. But even if the Shanghai Judge were to come to Hongkong, there are many difficulties in the way; expense and uncertainty of time when he would be required, and for how long. And then so elaborate a machinery would hardly be necessary to deal with appeals from the Summary Jurisdiction. \n\nMr. Wise has made in a minute which I have asked him to prepare to enclose with this letter, some very cogent remarks upon this appeal question. I think it right to add this in connexion with Your Excellency's suggestion, that it touches on the weakest spot of the administration of justice in the Colonies. If such a tribunal could be constituted for Hongkong, Shanghai, and the Straits, as an intermediate Court of Appeal between the different Supreme Courts and the Privy Council, it would be an inestimable", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-347 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1908 [4-6].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 413695, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-347 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1908 [4-6]", "page_number": 197, "title": "CO129-347 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1908 [4-6]", "content_text": "the view that the words \"Chinese Government\" when used in the Ordinance relate to the Central Government at Peking, and this Ordinance is passed so as to include within its meaning a Viceroy or other officer administering a Provincial Government.\n\nThe words \"Chinese authorities\" as distinguished from \"Chinese Government\" are used in Article 21 of the Tientsin Treaty of 1858 and in the preamble to the Principal Ordinance, and hitherto the requisition and \"engagement\" required by the Ordinance have for purposes of convenience and expediency been given by the Provincial as distinguished from the Central authority.\n\nWhees Davies.\nAttorney General.\n\n## DRAFT\nThe MS. of S.

MacLeish has completed a three years and nine months engagement at the General Hospital, Colombo, from 1904 to 1908. During that period the Reports received stated that she was a good conscientious nurse and understood her duties. The Reports also inferred that Miss MacLeish was rather difficult to manage, but the Committee of the Colonial Nursing Association consider allowance should be made for the fact that when the present Matron took over her duties at the General Hospital, Colombo, she found that the whole of the Nursing Staff had got rather out of hand. It is also in Miss MacLeish's favour that she was invited by the P.M.O. to remain nine months beyond the date on which her agreement terminated.\n\nSince her return home in 1908 Miss MacLeish, on the advice of the C.N.A. Committee, applied for further work at her old Training School, The Westminster Hospital, where she has been working on the Private Staff for the last six months.\n\nEdith In Mowbray \nHon. Sec. Col.

The first 'A' refers to my letter marked A-1 and the bill marked A-2 on this file. Mr. Williams states that \"the balance referred to viz.:- $80 is a personal account\". This refers to A-2 balance $82.93. Having regard to the nature of the items this seems improbable, but anyhow Mr. Williams has not paid it. He appears to intend to make some sort of counter claim. I have seen Messrs. Brewer who assert emphatically that the goods were supplied to the Victoria School. But if Mr. Williams pays, we need trouble ourselves no further in the matter.\n\nMr. Williams apparently intends to communicate again with the Colonial Secretary's Office with the intention of proving that I made false statements about him actuated by personal ill-will. I trust that he may be called upon to do so without delay.\n\nThe second letter marked B. Mr. Williams says that these items are also for his private account, and have been paid for. He does not say whether he holds a receipt. I do not know how these vouchers came to be presented at the Office, as they came in after I left.

That, although the term of three days is somewhat too harsh, illicit advantage would be taken of any excessive extension by unscrupulous merchants, and there would be secret sales of opium and losses of revenue, and that in consequence the beneficial objects of opium pro- hibition would be frustrated. In the interests of the trade of British merchants, however, the Bureau proposes to alter the former regulations and to impose a limit of one month from time of purchase on prepared opium shops for boiling, after which the levy must be\n\npaid. Such action would make the period ten times as long as before. As regards the prepared opium shops, that a month should elapse be- tween the buying of raw opium and its preparation is an impossible contingency. As regards the foreign merchants, one month will have elapsed from the time of sale, and the fact that the packages will have been broken and the opium prepared before the prepared opium shop is made to pay the levy, will make it impossible for them again/\n\nsay that the levy is imposed on raw opium in defiance of the Treaty.\n\nAs regards the British Consul General, the double object will be attained of rendering assistance to opium prohibition, end of pro- tecting the trade of his nationals.\n\nI have the honour to submit that the proposals of the\n\nBureau are highly equitable, The limit of one month for boiling dam\n\ncan have no harmful effect on the foreign opium import trade. I would\n\ntherefore request that you to instruct the British merchants in- terested to submit to this regulation.\n\nI shall be glad to receive a reply in due course.\n\n(Seal of Governor General of the Liang\n\nTranslated:\n\n(Sgd.)

I think the laymen looks on law as a thing which, if you turn a tap, simply runs out at will. This was one of the points which showed that the lay mind had been more than unpractical in the matter of the proposed Appeal Court. I am quite sure that when the Court is\n\nBiting Bothe Music\n\nChasse not sitting the layman thinks the Judges are at the Club, or\n\nX\n\nplaying golf. Well, that is a point of which the laymánd must\n\nbe disabused if the matter is to be fairly considered: but I am confident that if this point is appreciated, much way will be made: you see of course that this is a matter on which figures can throw no light.\n\n7.\n\ndun\n\nI now come to the Puisne Judge's work. Here again it is necessary to disabuse the lay mind of the idea that if the Puisne Judge happens to be free for an afternoon\n\nhe can be turned on to do Original Jurisdiction work: I am confident from remarks I have heard that this is quite a prevalent idea among the laity. You are sufficiently familiar with judicial work to know that this is not the case. But so far as his own Court is concerned, there is a deadlock there also; and Mr. Hazeland tells me that his first free day for a defended case is 22nd November. Of course allowance has been made for the sitting of the Full Court in appeal in the long case, but even omitting this the date would be at end of November. This is altogether wrong; it is entirely inconsistent with the idea of a Summary Court, and it works great hardship on litigants. I am most strongly of opinion that beyond the assistance at Assizes and in Chambers which the Puisne Judge now gives it would be most unwise to saddle the Puisne Judge with any of the Chief Justice's work permanently.\n\n8.\n\nOn the question of finance, I can only say that I have said before; first that the appointment of a Third Judge would increase the revenue of the Department, and secondly, that if the stamp duties were thoroughly collected,\n\nas they are now beginning to be, a revenue would be obtained\n\nsufficient", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-369 - Acting Governor May Governor Sir Lugard - 1910 [10-11].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 427230, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-369 - Acting Governor May Governor Sir Lugard - 1910 [10-11]", "page_number": 315, "title": "CO129-369 - Acting Governor May Governor Sir Lugard - 1910 [10-11]", "content_text": "O.D.\n\n#10DEC\n\n906\n\nالانا\n\n312\n\n0.49.\n\nH.

All the emigrants at the Harbour Office are presumed to be free, and hence the only good that can be done is to detect those who are not free and children under age, and to send them for examination to the Registrar-General's Department.\n\nPage 332\n\nPage 103", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-369 - Acting Governor May Governor Sir Lugard - 1910 [10-11].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 427424, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-369 - Acting Governor May Governor Sir Lugard - 1910 [10-11]", "page_number": 508, "title": "CO129-369 - Acting Governor May Governor Sir Lugard - 1910 [10-11]", "content_text": "203\n\n(Dawolf #rehand basi\n\n. ૧. ૐ\n\nNo.6287/10.\n\nLondosure 3.\n\n596\n\n#\n\n«Xolnober* 112 taob y\n\nað beris÷noɔ axoltacup owd add of viqet mI\n\nznośnnon ja Inocrialidades add to Joeldra add no eton a'noemt3\n\npoisstland on orad I yfofoon noldsive Latre Iraqxa myterol s to\n\nostŋob taal erið oð at di mot miqo Lanorroq va ni tadt yniqsa ai\n\nVII of bawol'a að bívoda atsetdua dal:Ind-non tasit oldaniasbou\n\nIls ew bus) tmosenq da ens donert of? .Ila je neonotab ort TSVO\n\nnottotra dud abneltt boog vier wo (od stavia IItw yodt ogosí\n\nod bøf bus T1000 Benijamoa noob obasi¬t to tuod od* neowted\n\nto vjalood donant a of batoang od aoinalmeg 11 „Jnomognanjee\n\nOJ TROJTNOJ əfil a bauter of flotYtib ed blwow 32,noijalva\n\nev bas (metast to meóqoru%),a&t2} [smoljan serijod to aeiteloos\n\nanottaa erð Ils dółw abastrt mit að of somit Ils da eqon donoso\n\n„bĹrow art to\n\nJaglit of daoltosido edź gntrebienoo až\n\nYan Jadw Vino don tavoɔog ofnt exist Jnum eno asometeb “TUO TOYO\n\nboxoqulb-III na yď snob od digim rogist Jade oría jud nosa ad\n\nja si alɗs tand stawa ms I .asvlaclqze dyid Ysa gatau moaTeq\n\nto afrerqolorob arid Jud iset swtamong a ridinaoq tmba01q\n\n-Tobianoo auofnos yrav a ji odan ewjut Ison edd ni yaer moldstra\n\n-req to Jaæig vns tonisya me I abawory orada ord no .xol‡#-\n\n-noo bra abonotab sáź zevo vit of renglerot yna od nolaata-\n\nnt aronglutot yas yď túgift to Boldoanq and tautsys vitroupes-\n\n.Ila ta gno1gαok\n\ntud eetikaroo sonetab fasol est\n\nooted moldaoup odt tal od vase od blow $I\n\nInsty o* Kale a leet woy basim\n\nDat‡Immes Bondtab edt date bra\n\ndetona doneti sds of notuntm199\n\ndolījust of healvob ad bisos amaga oʻžas editorí# rebienoo of\n\netorit tard wes tom ob I aasta sidanoitoelɗom niatreo of dig}LIK\n\n.Tertogat enttiamos erið flæo od xtinseɔen yas al\n\n..ɔde awọY\n\n«doɑrob¤Ã „A .D (.be)\n\nbour X.

During these 20 years, however, at least one attempt was made to introduce railways, and I have no doubt all of you know the tale of the more or less surreptitiously constructed \"Woosung Road,\"--and of its ultimate fate. The few weeks, however, in the year 1875, during which this ill-fated railway was permitted to run, were not altogether wasted, for the railway's usefulness and its possibilities had evidently impressed the mind of a gentleman named Tong King Sing,-a Cantonese by birth, then resident in Shanghai, who a few years later successfully initiated the \"Kaiping Tramway\" to transport coal from the Mines of which he was the Managing Director. The difficulties encountered by the \"Kaiping Tramway\" at its outset, and its subsequent development into a great railway system,-have had a very marked influence on railway enterprise in China,-for though inexperienced management and disaster during its early stages caused it long to act as a deterrent to other similar enterprises, yet its eventual magnificent success stimulated every Province in China to endeavour to copy the example set them by that large-minded Cantonese, Tong King Sing. I do not wish to weary you with details of the history of this \"Kaiping Tramway,\"--as to most of you these are well known, I will therefore merely remind you that after being taken over by a Chinese Joint Stock Company it struggled on for some years, until chaotic management and political obstruction brought this Company to the end of its resources. The Imperial Government then stepped in, and the management was summarily transferred to an Imperial Railway Administration, the rights and interests of shareholders being altogether ignored. For some years the line was run in this manner, and considerable extensions were made and contemplated, but the results of its working were so unsatisfactory, and its debts so numerous, that in 1898 a foreign loan was raised in order that its finances might be placed on a sound basis. As a result of this loan, certain important changes were made in the system of accounts and management, and immediately the receipts increased by leaps and bounds. Notwithstanding the setback and Rebellion, damage caused by the Boxer \n\nthe line has ever since proved a valuable asset for the Imperial Government, and incidentally also a paying investment for the old China Railway Co's shareholders, whose shares have now, I understand, been officially recognised. The profits of this railway in recent years have proved so great, that in addition to providing large sums towards the cost of constructing the Peking-Kalgan line, the surplus remaining has gone far towards paying for the clothing and equipment of the new foreign drilled Northern Army. Profits such as these, gentlemen, show how greatly the resources of the Imperial Government may be increased by properly administered and efficiently constructed railways, but unfortunately they also led the people of China to imagine that every railway must be a veritable gold mine, with the result that a patriotic cry was raised. Railway Bureaus were established in every Province, and the disastrous policy was forced on the Central Government of permitting the Provinces to attempt to build, finance and control their respective lines of railway, directing to that end the patriotism and energies of the local gentry and merchants. Whether the movement was purely patriotic, or whether it arose from an overpowering desire to share in the anticipated profits of the proposed railways,--are matters with which I am not here concerned,-suffice it to say that experience has shown that no progress satisfactory from a national point of view is attainable by these methods, and instead of the orderly and systematic development; \n\nto \n\nof the country, they are calculated to produce interminable discussion, disorder and delay. Thus far, gentlemen, I have briefly traced an outline of what may be regarded as purely Chinese Railway Enterprise in this Empire. I have not specially referred to such great works as the Chinese Eastern, or the German Shantung Railways, as these, though of great benefit to the country, are of political origin. Other lines, such as the Peking-Hankow and the Shanghai-Nanking Railways have been constructed under what may be described as more or less \n\n\"concession terms\"--terms which though possibly beneficial to China, are nevertheless cordially disliked, and it is not surprising therefore that strenuous and not altogether unsuccessful efforts have been made to upset and change them. The Canton-Kowloon Railway, which the Governments of China and Hongkong are to-day opening to traffic, has, in so far as the Chinese section is concerned, been constructed by means of a British loan, the terms and conditions of which, I make bold to say are in every respect fair as between borrower and lender. The line has been built without friction, and despite the high cost of land, has been completed within the estimate,--a feat of which the past and present Managing Directors, the Engineer-in-Chief, and the entire Staff may justly feel proud. Gentlemen, in 1909, on the occasion of the laying of the Foundation Stone of the Railway Station at Tai Sha Tau, I quoted a statement made nearly 50 years ago by that very distinguished Engineer, Sir Macdonald Stephenson, to the effect that \"Railway development was China's greatest need,\" and I foreshadowed a few of the inestimable benefits which this great Empire might derive from efficient and rapid inter-communication between her Provinces and Cities. What about half a century ago was merely a \"great need\" has to-day become an imperative necessity, which I am glad to say is now clearly recognised by all the leading Statesmen of the Empire, and it is pleasing to note that no less than three great trunk lines (Tientsin-Pukow, Canton-Hankow, and Hankow-Szechuen) are now in active progress. For the present, however, China cannot construct her Railways without the assistance of foreign capital, and this can only be obtained subject to an Imperial guarantee. I think, therefore, that the recent decision of the Imperial Government that all the important Trunk Lines shall be State-owned, is a wise and far-seeing policy, and though it may now cost considerable sums to fully satisfy the claims of the various local and provincial companies, yet in the end the money will be well spent, as China will be saved from evils which would result from lack of central control, and from the friction which would inevitably arise when local considerations clashed with Imperial requirements. For years to come also, China must look mainly to foreign Engineers to superintend the construction of her railways and in this connection, I would with all respect venture to remind her, that the better the class of Engineer employed so much the better will the experience be of the numerous young Chinese Engineers now being trained,--and to whom in the not distant future she must look to control and carry these great enterprises. Gentlemen, the programme of Railway construction which the Imperial Government has undertaken is an ambitious one, which will cost immense sums and take many years to complete. China's credit, however, is good, and, provided these undertakings are State-owned and controlled, no difficulty should be experienced in borrowing what is required on easy terms. She has, however, many difficult problems to overcome ere these projected railways can achieve results such as have been", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-380 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1911 [9-10].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 433369, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-380 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1911 [9-10]", "page_number": 354, "title": "CO129-380 - Governor Sir Lugard - 1911 [9-10]", "content_text": "## Date: 20/9/22\nFarling - Thalankok Railway.\n\nLast previous Paper: 21/2/19, 36243.\n\n8 Oct, 36243, 349 **TO OV!!** \nGives revised estimate of cost of construction. \nExplains against proposal to add %% upon capital cost to working expenses.

I consented to his informing his colleagues of the fact under the strictest seal of secrecy, pointing out that the proposal you had been pleased to make to me was a private one, and had not received His Majesty's assent, and was in no way official or final.\n\n2. The information has been kept strictly confidential, but Hon. Sir F. Chater C.H.G. and Hon.

The increase in Bombay was due to the fact that 221 cases of illicit transport, possession and sale of cocaine were detected during the year under report against 34 in the previous year. The very large increase in the number of such cases detected is due to the system of night patrols introduced in the cocaine hawking areas. In Surat and Ahmedabad the number of such cases detected was 7 and 3, respectively. This deadly drug is yet happily unknown to the people in several districts.\n\nEnclosure No. 6.]\n\nExtract paragraph 10 of the Resolution by the Government of Bombay No. 629, dated the 21st January 1911.\n\n10.

Jordan on the subject of my appointment had a very different object in view. I was anxious to remove from his mind an opinion on the subject of such appointments which \n\nhe had expressed at our first interview that the time for \n\nAdvisers had not arrived, and that they would involve an unnecessary expenditure, which he was instructed not to encourage. This seemed to me an opinion which would be prejudicial to the interests of China should Sir J. Jordan advise the Government in that sense, and one which would be also prejudicial to my own interests, leading him to oppose my appointment were he approached on the subject; I endeavoured therefore to get him to take a broader view of the question, more especially after Dr. Morrison's appointment, when I pointed out that the time for the appointment of a Legal Adviser had most certainly arrived. The only direct request which I made to Sir J. Jordan was for an introduction to the then Premier soon after my arrival; but on his pointing out to me that his instructions did not permit it as it would appear as if he was supporting me I immediately withdrew my request. \n\n7. \n\nWith regard to the instructions to Sir J. Jordan the despatch under reply omits to refer to the fact to which I took and still take most serious objection. When I first saw Sir J. Jordan his instructions appear to have been general; but they were followed by others personal to myself, which were apparently sent out soon after I left Hongkong, for they were referred to by Sir J. Jordan as \"recent\". In the circumstances connected with my probable (not \"hypothetical\") appointment they can only be called secret instructions. In those circumstances I was entitled by every principle of fair dealing to know of them at once; and it is much to be regretted \n\n## Home \n## India \n## Med \n## Part \n\nDE A", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-396 - Public Offices - 1912.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 441047, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-396 - Public Offices - 1912", "page_number": 383, "title": "CO129-396 - Public Offices - 1912", "content_text": "# 87C \n379 \n\nA practical call to voluntary aid was made now. \nMass boycotts hoodwinked the people. \n\nTo discourage obstruction, aid was given to \nundertake the work.
