On Saturday, 11th November, Lieutenant-Commander H. C. Carr, of H.M.S. Sandpiper, having been informed of the depredations of the pirates, sent a despatch to Lieut-Commander Hosie, of H.M.S. Tweed, at Kongmoon, to co-operate in an attack upon the position where the pirates were supposed to be in force. The pirates were reported to have an improvised battery about four miles from Samahui.\n\nOn Saturday night the pirates had demanded from some salt junks a sum of $300 and one gun, and had also made a steamer heave to and landed from her a large quantity of provisions. The pirates then attempted to disable her engines, but in this they were unsuccessful, and the steamer eventually escaped to Samshui where a report of the occurrence was made to the commander of H.M.S. Sandpiper.\n\nThe Sandpiper and Torpedo Boat No. 36 were immediately got under weigh and proceeded down stream past the place where the attack was reported to have been made on the steamer. A number of salt junks were met which the pirates had recently left after attempting to extort money. H.M.S. Tweed arrived on the scene shortly afterwards, and received instructions to proceed to the place where the attacks were reported to have been made, and anchor to protect a number of salt junks.\n\nThe Sandpiper then cleared for action and in company with Torpedo Boat No. 36 escorted a number of salt junks as far as Samshui. On Monday the Sandpiper and the torpedo boat returned to escort some more salt junks, and the signal was hoisted to the Tweed to follow in the wake of the Sandpiper to Shamshui, the torpedo boat bringing up the rear of the convoy.\n\nAt Samshui, the Tweed and torpedo boat coaled ship, and on Wednesday the Tweed left for Cha Tau San, the headquarters of the pirates, where she anchored on Thursday morning. About half-past nine o'clock, on Friday night, 17th inst., sounds of rapid firing of guns were heard from a launch about 300 yards ahead of the Tweed.\n\nCommander Hosie immediately ordered the gig to be manned and armed, and rockets were fired from the Tweed to the cutter on patrol duty that her assistance was required. The gig and cutter got alongside the steam launch in about 4 minutes to find that she was not in difficulties, but that she was a mandarin's boat, and the crew had resorted to the alarming method of indicating an evening's pleasure.\n\nLieut-Commander Hosie is nevertheless to be congratulated on the promptness of his action, which would have been very beneficial had the occurrence been what it was presumed to be when the alarm was raised on the gunboat.\n\n難", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-294 - Governor Sir Blake - 1899 [10-12].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 378294, "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": "CO129-302 - Public Offices - 1900", "page_number": 110, "title": "CO129-302 - Public Offices - 1900", "content_text": "## 2012 \n\n105 \n\nIt would be an advantage to have the regulation of affairs in the West River and Delta generally under one head so that questions arising in which H.M.

Full particulars of inspection of corps (Chapsztui) are given in the fourth enclosure of my despatch Secret of the 5th October. Canton Finance Ministry has published a notification that it has appointed men of this Corps to proceed to Kowloon as well as to Kongmoon, Lappa, Samahui, Kiungchow, Pakhoi, Swatow, Nanking, and Lungchow to establish offices for the collection of new taxes on the same system as at Canton. This is clearly an attempt to duplicate the customs organization in Kuangtung and Kuangsi Provinces, that is to say that wherever there are maritime or native customs, a collectorate of the Canton Government will be also established.\n\nIt cannot be doubted that the ulterior object is the extermination of maritime customs and the attainment of tariff autonomy.\n\nAnti-British Economic Boycott Committee at Canton has passed a Resolution to begin taking stock of British goods stored in Chinese shops or firms from the 1st November. Fifty thousand copies of the form used for this purpose will be distributed to shops etc. in order to fill in particulars. The aim is to re-establish boycott by intimidation of shopkeepers and merchants. Native Hotel Union at Canton has circularized hotel guides not to receive or accompany any passengers from or to British ships. Any guide violating this rule will be fined 50 dollars and discharged.\n\nOn 30th October, I discussed the Canton situation with Brennan who is now in Hong Kong. He fully shares my view that it is the deliberate policy of the Canton Government to destroy foreign treaties and also to undermine and overthrow the maritime customs. I associate myself with the last two sentences in telegram No.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-494 - Governor Sir Clementi - 1926 [9-10].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 } ]
