PEEL AND THE FOREIGN PRESS. The French papers are much amused with Sir Robert Peel's speech, and give copious extracts from it, together with translations from the comments of the London journals. The Assemblée of Saturday devotes an article of four columns to the matter, but it is only remarkable for the feeble attempts made to translate the Yankee expression \"soft sawder.\" The redacteurs of the Assemblée, who probably put their heads together and consulted their dictionaries, give the result of their learned researches in the following note:-*** It is all soft sawder, an expression more American than English, and one which it is impossible to translate literally, sawder' leans a sawyer who handles his saw lazily, and does but little work. A 'soft sawder' is what, in the language of working people, is called un lambin, un grande iche, une poule mouillée.\" Having by this lexicographical process obtained a choice of epithets, the Assemblée selects lambin as the most appropriate, and nervously in the text of the article it is represented that Sir Robert Peel, instead of saying that the grand duke's frankness and cordiality was all \"soft sawder,\" called him a \"great drené\" (lambin.)\n\nIn the matter of the Asiatic Marine Insurance Office. NOTICE is hereby given that by an Order of this Court the shareholders of the said\n\nASIATIC MARINE INSURANCE OFFICE\n\nare required to pay the further sum of Company's Rupees Two thousand\n\non or before the following dates, that is to say the shareholders resident in Calcutta or the suburbs on or before the tenth day of March next, the shareholders resident in Hongkong and Bombay on or before the tenth day of May next, and the shareholders resident in Great Britain and all other places not mentioned in the said Order on or before the first day of August next.

I have had a large experience of brain disease, and I am satisfied now that smoking is a most noxious habit. I know of no one other cause or agent that so much tends to bring on functional disease, and through this, in the end, to lead to organic disease of the brain, as excessive use of tobacco,”—Dublin Medical Press.\n\nTHOMAS HUNT & Co., Hongkong, March 26, 1857.\n\nFOR SALE.\n\nTHE undersigned has this day established himself as Shipping Agent at this port, in conjunction with PALMER, 3, 10 AM YAN DER HOEVEN of Canton, under the Firm of VAN DER HOEVEN & KOP.\n\nA.

After this, the engine of the Central police arrived and commenced operations, but the hose pipe burst in a short time and caused some delay until tied up and made taut by Mr. Macdonald, one of the turnkeys of the Gaol, who was on the spot with the Governor of that establishment. This mishap occurred more than once to the great disadvantage of the Brigade, and the engine was eventually sent home. About half-past eleven or so, the roof of the building fell in with a crash that sent myriads of sparks into the air and seemed as if it were a welcome \"feu de joie\" to the Superintendent of the Fire Brigade, who arrived about that time. Messrs. Dent & Co.'s engine also arrived about this time and, taking up a position in D'Aguilar-street, played on the roof of the stables lately belonging to that firm, which had become ignited but which did not burn after the straw roof fell. A number of men from the U.S. gunboat Unadilla arrived on the scene during the evening and rendered good assistance, as did also the Naval Brigade of H.M.S. Pearl, consisting of ninety men under the command of Lieut. E. C. Rice, who also came promptly to the spot and assisted in the most praiseworthy manner in subduing the flames. The engine of the 73rd Regiment, with a considerable body of men, arrived shortly before the fire had burst itself out, but of all the different departments represented at the fire, the men of the Dockyard police were the most active in extinguishing the flames, and therefore great merit must be due to their exertions.\n\nThe attempts made to save the property were, although well meant, very improperly carried out, for the amount of damage done to part of the furniture of the block quite away from the fire is much to be regretted, as is also the spirit which directed the members of the police force to commence playing bowls in the Orient Salon during the early hours of the morning while the remains of the fire were being extinguished.\n\nThe wreck of the building is now in the hands of the Insurance Companies, with whom the policies on the building and its contents were taken out. As the place was completely gutted, there is very little hope of anything of value being saved, with the exception of the \"Fireproof safe\" belonging to the firm, which is the only thing in the whole store that withstood the flames.\n\nAmong the other Engines which arrived early on the ground, one brought up by M. Macaire of the M.I. str. Imperatrice, did good service and therefore must not be forgotten.\n\n311", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-132 - Sir MacDonnell - 1868 [8-9].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 277419, "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": "CO129-135 - Public Offices & Others - 1868", "page_number": 719, "title": "CO129-135 - Public Offices & Others - 1868", "content_text": "FA.

The plants, from overcrowding in the nurseries, were also weakened in the parts proceeding from the plumule, so that both radicle and plumule being so much damaged, the vitality of the plant was reduced to its lowest ebb. When planting, the holes also were not filled with soil, but were receptacles for a superabundance of water during every shower, which kept the roots in a miniature swamp, at a time when the plants, with their damaged organs, were not in condition to assimilate so much moisture. The trees were also planted too deep; in many cases I found the small stems were covered with soil to a depth of six inches.\n\n14. Had experience and intelligence, such as could only have been obtained by careful observation and study of the science of plant life, and a knowledge of expedients for the greatest economy of labour, been continually brought to bear on the direction of the work, we should not now have to record the sad result of the year's work.\n\n15. As bearing upon the foregoing remarks, it might be well to call to mind a few physiological facts upon which vegetable life depends.\n\n16. In many seeds the vital principle is so strong that, to scatter them upon the soil, and to cover them slightly with earth, is sufficient to insure their rapid germination; but in others, the powers of growth will only manifest themselves under more favourable conditions; it is therefore necessary to consider well upon what the circumstances most suitable to germination depend. In dealing with many varieties of seeds, the greatest care in applying the agencies of moisture, shade, soil, covering, &c., is essential. Different kinds of seeds require different kinds of treatment to meet their varied demands; and not only this during the process of germination, but between the time of collecting the seeds and committing them to their seed-beds, boxes, pots, or whatever may be the situation demanded. The nature of the seed, whether oily, resinous, hard, soft, having a thick or thin testa, &c.; the known duration of retaining vitality under ordinary circumstances and under altered and varying conditions, must all be taken into account, weighed and considered from manifold views; all this requiring the time and skill of an expert to deal successfully with.\n\n17. The extreme points of roots are exceedingly delicate, and are injured by trifling causes; moreover, since all newly-formed vegetable matter is extremely hygrometrical, they have the power of absorbing, with rapidity, any fluid or gaseous matter that may be presented to them. In roots of ordinary exogens, the tip or spargelet consists of very loose, tender cellular tissue, resting upon a blunt cone of woody matter, composed principally of woody tubes, and connected with the albumen of the stem. It is the opinion of most vegetable physiologists that the absorbing or feeding powers are conducted principally at the points, and that the general surface of the root possesses little or no feeding power. It is almost entirely through their action that the enormous waste of fluid, which takes place in plants by perspiration, is made good; hence their importance to plants, and the danger of destroying them becomes manifest.\n\n18. The functions of respiration, perspiration, and digestion, which are the particular offices of leaves, are absolutely necessary to the health of a tree, its healthfulness being in proportion to the degree in which these functions are performed, hence the importance of preserving those in a healthy condition is seen.\n\n19. An excellent authority on forest management says:- \"How necessary it is that foresters should become thoroughly acquainted with the laws that govern the healthy development of trees before they have the management of rearing them.”\n\nIII.—DEDUCTIONS ARRIVED AT FROM EXPERIENCE IN DEPARTMENTAL MANAGEMENT.\n\n20.—The consideration of the foregoing, and much more which, if recapitulated, would render this report too prolix, confirms me in the belief that it is most important that the Botanical and Forest management should be in charge of one and the same person, and that the Superintendent of the Gardens; as botanical, arboricultural and horticultural works are all so intimately connected, that in a small Colony like ours the three branches of one profession cannot be separate without detriment to one and all. The Superintendent has so many things to deal with in the three branches, that he should be as unfettered as possible by official routine and circumlocution, such as existed when the gardens were a sub-department of the Survey Department, when delays occurred in dealing with subjects requiring prompt attention, which were fatal to the business in hand. As one instance, I may mention the delay in dealing with the plants of Pithecolobium Saman last year, which ended in disastrous results. This plant was introduced, through Kew Gardens, from South America, and was successfully treated in our nursery, 1300 plants being reared, but the Survey Department could not be induced to move in the matter of transferring them to the forest establishment until after more than three months after I had reported them as requiring prompt attention. The importance of these things seems to be unappreciated by the officials of the Survey Department, which is, perhaps, not much to be wondered at, seeing that the knowledge of such things does not form part of their professional training. As one more instance of that department's inability to cope with this department's affairs, I may mention that during my absence in England one hundred and eighty species of plants were lost to the gardens, as I reported and furnished the names of to the Acting Surveyor General on the 28th August, 1878. Some of these plants, which had been introduced from England and Germany, and of which we had only single plants of many species, I found had been removed in pots to the Cemetery, and although I several times asked for their return, so that we could propagate them and thus preserve the species, I offering to let them have, after propagation, plants in return, my applications were never replied to, nor have we to this day received the plants.\n\n21. Mr. MARIES, a traveller from the Messrs. VEITCHS' Royal Exotic Nursery, London, brought for presentation to the gardens a valuable collection of plants, which, on a second visit to the Colony, he found in a dying or already dead condition, although, I heard plants of the same kinds presented to private individuals here were flourishing. Mr. Veitch, when I saw him in London, reported this to me. Foreseeing, before I went home, that valuable consignments of plants could not be successfully well cared for, I requested my correspondents not to furnish the plants, &c., of my lists of desiderata until my return.\n\n22. Simultaneously with its own investigations, this department, by correspondence, can assist the forest work, by introducing rare and valuable trees; and also in rearing such tender kinds as require more careful treatment than they could receive in the tree nurseries; and also in applying such information and experience as by correspondence, &c., are being continually supplied. The different operations, also, could be brought into a better system and state of organisation, by the staffs, &c., being able to reciprocate, if the whole of the two establishments were under one practical and professional direction.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nSir,\n\nThe Honourable THE COLONIAL SECRETARY,\n\nNo. 182.\n\nYour most obedient Servant,\n\nCHARLES FORD, Superintendent Botanical Gardens.\n\nGOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.\n\nMr. C.

The Committee are not it appears in possession of evidence showing how the names of Messrs. Turing, McDouall and Ryrie came to be inserted in the Crown Lease; but inevitable inference from all the circumstances is that they executed the lease as nominees and agents for the Committee. As to the two of them who had signed the \"shares,\" they necessarily took the lease subject to the rights of the shareholders, and there is no room for reasonable doubt that Mr. Ryrie, who must have had full knowledge of all that occurred, stands on precisely the same footing in this particular, as his co-Lessees.\n\nNow this Crown Lease is, through some misconception, printed in the Government Gazette of the 11th September, 1880, under the Title of the \"Trust Deed of the City Hall,\" and it is, I presume, in this misconception, that the somewhat confused notions as to Mr. Ryrie's powers which find their place in the C. S. O. already alluded to have had their origin. Mr. Ryrie does not, as there alleged, \"stand in the position of a trustee for the purposes for which the lease was granted by the Government;\" but when he executed the lease he became by operation of law arising out of the circumstances of the case one of three trustees for the Shareholders who as he knew had subscribed their money, and his \"legal estate\" became and is subject to their beneficial interests; which is a very different thing.\n\nTurning now for a moment to this Lease, which bears date the 6th day of March, 1866, I find that, in consideration of five current Dollars then paid to the Crown, and subject to an annual rental of one dollar, the Crown assigned to the three above-named Lessees, their Executors, Administrators and Assigns, the land on which the City Hall structure now stands for a term of 999 years, the lessees covenanting to build upon it a building costing not less than $10,000 within a specified time, and not to use the said demised premises otherwise than as and for a City Hall,\" there being a proviso for re-entry by the Crown for breach of such covenant, preceded by a recital that the demise had been made in order to provide a fit and proper site solely The Lease also contains a for the purposes of the said City Hall. covenant not to let, underlet, mortgage or otherwise assign over the\n\n(7)\n\nland. With the foregoing exceptions the lease is an ordinary Crown Lease. The relationship established by it between the Crown and the lessees is simply that of Landlord and Tenant, and so long as the conditions and covenants of the Lease are observed, the Crown has no concern with the building, its internal affairs or its mode of management. The mixed purposes which the City Hall was intended to subserve and the mode under which the money had been subscribed no doubt dictated this form of lease, which under the circumstances, was a very correct one, for, if the land had been conveyed in trust, the very delicate questions might have arisen, which the Executive has now sought to raise. Happily such complications seem to have been foreseen, and provided against.\n\nNow what are the rights of the shareholders in this building ? are they, in view of the shareholders being more than 20 in number, having no corporate existence and being engaged in an enterprise from which the element of private gain is not absent, such as can be legally recognized or legally enforced?\n\nI have no doubt they can. There never having been any agreement inter se, among the shareholders, they are not partners, and though their money was subscribed for a common purpose, there has never been any such association between them for the carrying out of that purpose as required the shareholders to be registered as a company. Doubtless it must be taken to have been the intention of the shareholders to divide the profits from the use of the Hall, if there were any, among themselves rateably; but it is now settled law that part owners who divide what is obtained by the use of the thing owned are not thereby constituted partners. (See Smith v. Anderson-Times, 17th July, 1880.)\n\nIt has been held that if tenants in common of a house let it and divide the rent among themselves they are not on that account partners, although they may pay for the repairs out of the rent before dividing it, The rights and obligations of the shareholders in the City Hall are those of co-owners, each shareholder having a right to transfer his interest in the building without the consent of his co-owners, and having no liability for the debts incurred in the management of the concern, beyond what he has specially undertaken to defray. Rights such as these are enforceable in equity (see Taylor v. Salmon, 4 Mylne and Craig, 134) and amount to a beneficial interest in the property, giving each shareholder\n\n27\n\n#\n\nDec.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-190 - Governor Hennessy - 1880 [10-12].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 307592, "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": "CO129-191 - Public Offices & Others - 1880", "page_number": 170, "title": "CO129-191 - Public Offices & Others - 1880", "content_text": "Thief Justice said that the Messageries Maritimes do not carry mails, or things subsidised within the meaning of the postal convention\n\nNr 22/3\n\n14\n\nopinion upon the\n\nCavender\n\nbetween\n\nSeest Pris & Frame\n\nThe F.

The plants, from overcrowding in the nurseries, were also weakened in the parts proceeding from the plumule, so that both radicle and plumule being so much damaged, the vitality of the plant was reduced to its lowest ebb. also were not filled with soil, but were receptacles for a superabundance of water during every shower, When planting, the holes which kept the roots in a miniature swamp, at a time when the plants, with their damaged organs, were not in condition to assimilate so much moisture. The trees were also planted too deep; in many cases I found the small stems were covered with soil to a depth of six inches.\n\n14. Had experience and intelligence, such as could only have been obtained by careful observation and study of the science of plant life, and a knowledge of expedients for the greatest economy of labour, been continually brought to bear on the direction of the work, we should not now have to record the sad result of the year's work.\n\n15. As bearing upon the foregoing remarks, it might be well to call to mind a few physiological facts upon which vegetable life depends.\n\n16. In many seeds the vital principle is so strong that, to scatter them upon the soil, and to cover them slightly with earth, is sufficient to insure their rapid germination; but in others, the powers of growth will only manifest themselves under more favourable conditions; it is therefore necessary to consider well upon what the circumstances most suitable to germination depend. In dealing with many varieties of seeds, the greatest care in applying the agencies of moisture, shade, soil, covering, &c., is essential. Different kinds of seeds require different kinds of treatment to meet their varied demands; and not only this during the process of germination, but between the time of collecting the seeds and committing them to their seed-beds, boxes, pots, or whatever may be the situation demanded. The nature of the seed, whether oily, resinous, hard, soft, having a thick or thin testa, &c.; the known duration of retaining vitality under ordinary circumstances and under altered and varying conditions, must all be taken into account, weighed and considered from manifold views; all this requiring the time and skill of an expert to deal successfully with.\n\n17. The extreme points of roots are exceedingly delicate, and are injured by trifling causes; moreover, since all newly-formed vegetable matter is extremely hygrometrical, they have the power of absorbing, with rapidity, any fluid or gaseous matter that may be presented to them. In roots of ordinary exogens, the tip or spargelet consists of very loose, tender cellular tissue, resting upon a blunt cone of woody matter, composed principally of woody tubes, and connected with the albumen of the stem. It is the opinion of most vegetable physiologists that the absorbing or feeding powers are conducted principally at the points, and that the general surface of the root possesses little or no feeding power. It is almost entirely through their action that the enormous waste of fluid, which takes place in plants by perspiration, is made good; hence their importance to plants, and the danger of destroying them becomes manifest.\n\n18. The functions of respiration, perspiration, and digestion, which are the particular offices of leaves, are absolutely necessary to the health of a tree, its healthfulness being in proportion to the degree in which these functions are performed, hence the importance of preserving those in a healthy condition is seen.\n\n19. An excellent authority on forest management says:--\"How necessary it is that foresters should become thoroughly acquainted with the laws that govern the healthy development of trees before they have the management of rearing them.\"\n\nIII.--DEDUCTIONS ARRIVED AT FROM EXPERIENCE IN DEPARTMENTAL MANAGEMENT.\n\n20. The consideration of the foregoing, and much more which, if recapitulated, would render this report too prolix, confirms me in the belief that it is most important that the Botanical and Forest management should be in charge of one and the same person, and that the Superintendent of the Gardens; as botanical, arboricultural and horticultural works are all so intimately connected, that in a small Colony like ours the three branches of one profession cannot be separate without detriment to one and all. The Superintendent has so many things to deal with in the three branches, that he should be as unfettered as possible by official routine and circumlocution, such as existed when the gardens were a sub-department of the Survey Department, when delays occurred in dealing with subjects requiring prompt attention, which were fatal to the business in hand. As one instance, I may mention the delay in dealing with the plants of Pithecolobium Saman last year, which ended in disastrous results. This plant was introduced, through Kew Gardens, from South America, and was successfully treated in our nursery, 1300 plants being reared, but the Survey Department could not be induced to move in the matter of transferring them to the forest establishment until after more than three months after I had reported them as requiring prompt attention. The importance of these things seems to be unappreciated by the officials of the Survey Department, which is, perhaps, not much to be wondered at, seeing that the knowledge of such things does not form part of their professional training. As one more instance of that department's inability to cope with this department's work, I may mention that during my absence in England one hundred and eighty species of plants were sent to the gardens, as I reported and furnished the names of to the Acting Surveyor General on the 28th August, 1878. Some of these plants, which had been introduced from England and Germany, and of which we had only single plants of many species, I found had been removed in pots to the Cemetery, and although several times asked for their return, so that we could propagate them and thus preserve the species, I offering to let them have, after propagation, plants in return, my applications were never replied to, nor have we to this day received the plants.\n\n21. Mr. MARIES, a traveller from the Messrs. VEITCH's Royal Exotic Nursery, London, brought for presentation to the gardens a valuable collection of plants, which, on a second visit to the Colony, he found in a dying or already dead condition, although, I heard plants of the same kinds presented to private individuals here were flourishing. Mr. VEITCH, when I saw him in London, reported this to me. Foreseeing, before I went home, that valuable consignments of plants could not be successfully well cared for, I requested my correspondents not to furnish the plants, &c., of my lists of desiderata until my return.\n\n22. Simultaneously with its own investigations, this department, by correspondence, can assist the forest work, by introducing rare and valuable trees; and also in rearing such tender kinds as require more careful treatment than they could receive in the tree nurseries; and also in applying such information and experience as by correspondence, &c., are being continually supplied. The different operations, also, could be brought into a better system and state of organisation, by the staffs, &c., being able to reciprocate, if the whole of the two establishments were under one practical and professional direction.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nSir,\n\nYour most obedient Servant,\n\nCHARLES FORD, Superintendent Botanical Gardens.\n\nNo. 182.\n\nGOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.\n\nMr. C.

Regarding the passage in paragraph 90 complaining of the injury that was done to some plants (pithecolobium saman) by the delay in the transfer of the Forest Department to Mr Ford's management, I may mention\n\nthat pending an answer to a letter I had addressed to the Governor on the subject of this transfer, I was able to resign the management to Mr Ford, but fearful lest in consequence of the delay any injury might be done to plants, I wrote to Mr Ford the note given in Appendix B, placing the professional services of Mr Cornean, his late locum tenens, at his disposal. At the same time, I directed Mr Cornean to carry out all Mr Ford's instructions in connection with such work as Mr Ford deemed urgent. Mr Ford, however, declined to give Mr Cornean any instructions, and the plants must have suffered in consequence.\n\n18.

M. DEANE**, Acting Colonial Secretary,\n\nColonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 11th March, 1882.\n\n## No. 16. SUPERINTENDENT, BOTANIC AND AFFORESTATION DEPARTMENT, TO ACTING COLONIAL SECRETARY.\n\nBOTANIC GARDEN, 18th April, 1881.\n\nSIR,\n\nI have the honour to submit my Report on the Progress and Condition of the Botanical and Afforestation Department for the year 1880.\n\n2. The removal from the gardens of plants and shrubs of which the individuals of some kinds were too numerous has been carried on for the benefit and better appearance of those remaining, as well as to make room for newer introductions. Considerable work has also been done in transplanting shrubs and trees which were too crowded or ill-placed.\n\n3. **Persea Nanmu. Oliv.** From the small tree of this valuable timber tree of Yun-nan, which Mr. Watters kindly sent from Ichang, we have procured about half a dozen young plants, by layering. The little tree has succeeded very well in our garden, and if a large stock of it could be obtained it might be a valuable addition to our plantations. I have tried to get seeds or plants from Yun-nan, and correspondents have kindly promised their assistance, but as yet nothing has come to hand.\n\n4. **Cytisus proliferous var. (\"Tagasaste\")**. The seedlings (about 50) which were planted on the hills about a year ago grew remarkably well until the hot weather and rains commenced, when, I regret to say, they all perished, proving the unsuitability of the climate for this fodder plant.\n\n5. **Rhagodia hastata (Australian \"Salt Bush\")**. The same may be said of this fodder plant as of the above \"Tagasaste,\" it having grown vigorously until the hot weather and rains set in, when it perished.\n\n6. **Pithecolobium Saman (The \"Rain Tree\")**. Small trees which were carefully planted in prepared ground in 1879 continue to thrive, many of them are six to seven feet high. But those which were planted in unprepared ground, although nursed by the trees of a young plantation in which they were planted, are only about two feet high.\n\n7. **Manihot Glaziovii (Ceara Scrap Rubber)**. In good soil a small plant, which I brought from Kew Gardens in 1878, and which was then only about three inches high, has grown to a tree about 15 feet high and is now seeding freely. It seeded last year also and from the seeds which were produced we raised several small plants which were planted on the hills, at about 400 feet altitude, last autumn, but the cold of the past few months killed them down to the ground—the lowest temperature recorded at the gardens, alt. 300 feet, was 46°—but all are now making new shoots from the surface of the ground. The old plants were not affected by the cold.\n\n8. **Liberian Coffee**. A few plants of this, which have been in the gardens for four years, do not thrive at all well, although the Arabian coffee grows luxuriantly and fruits abundantly.\n\n9. **Fai-cha wood**. The wood used at Ningpo for carving is called by this name. The tree from which the wood is obtained has not yet been identified, but as I have succeeded in obtaining a small plant of what is reputed to be the true one, there is some hope that when it flowers the doubt may be set at rest; judging from the appearance of the plant without flowers or fruit, it is a species of Evonymus.\n\n10. **Macadamia ternifolia (the \"Queensland Nut\")**. In my last report I mentioned that this had flowered for the first time here. Now I am able to state that the flowers were succeeded by a very fair crop of nuts which tasted quite equal in flavour to those produced in Queensland.\n\nPage 7\n\n## Enclosures", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-198 - Governor Hennessy Acting Governor Tonnochy - 1882 [3].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 321135, "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": "CO129-207 - Acting Governor Marsh - 1883 [1-3]", "page_number": 514, "title": "CO129-207 - Acting Governor Marsh - 1883 [1-3]", "content_text": "511\n\nGEORGE PHILIPPO.\n\nRegistrar Supreme Court.******\n\nChief Justice.\n\nFRANCIS SNOWDEN,\n\nPuisne Judge\n\nEDW.

They, the above-named prisoners, headed a band of rebellious subjects, who were all armed, ravaged and plundered the inhabitants there and availed themselves at the same time of the opportunity to attack the Imperial Camps, killing three Officers and over one hundred soldiers. This is a great crime against the laws of China.\n\nOn the 14th day of the 2nd moon (11th March 1884), I, with my regiment of soldiers and in company with some other regiments, defeated the rebels in the place called \"Pak Mong Tsai\".\n\nNow we find out that the said Wong Kamon, Liato, and Chanaka are taking their refuge in Hongkong.

Les différences qui existent entre le taux de la piastre de Ninh Binh et celui d'Hanoi et d'Haïphong font que ces prix sont intérieurement à ceux de ces deux places. Les nombreux achats de boeufs faits dans le courant de ce mois ont élevé leur prix au Thanh Hoa et l'ont porté de 50 ligatures à 65 et 70 ligatures.\n\nL'industrie dans la province est fort peu développée, on ne peut guère signaler que dans le Phu Nho une fabrique de fers forgés, nécessaires à l'agriculture, et de lances. Les Muongs fabriquent eux-mêmes dans les montagnes des fusils à mèche de forme spéciale, mais en bien petit nombre et ne pouvant faire l'objet d'un commerce. Il en est de même de leurs soies (Pha Lao), peut-être d'une qualité supérieure à celle des Annamites et qu'ils ne semblent vouloir produire que pour les besoins de leur consommation.\n\nLe commerce du riz, le plus important de la province, se fait un peu à Ninh-Binh, mais surtout à Phat-Diem et à l'embouchure du Day. Ce dernier point me paraît appelé un jour à être l'un des points les plus importants du commerce au Tonkin et peut-être le grand port de l'avenir. Les jonques de mer si nombreuses qui font le cabotage entre toutes les côtes de l'Annam et le Tonkin, pénètrent dans les provinces du Delta où elles vont échanger leur sel et leur saumure contre le riz qui leur manque, par l'embouchure du Day où les agents des grands centres de commerce viennent acheter leur cargaison. D'un autre côté, c'est par cette voie seulement que pendant une partie de l'année les fortes canonnières peuvent remonter à Hanoi. Un chenal creusé facilement dans la barre du fleuve le rendrait accessible aux navires à vapeur de fort tonnage et offrirait au commerce de tout le Delta des avantages incontestables que ne saurait leur offrir l'embouchure du Cua-Cam.\n\nUn moment interrompus, par suite d'une baisse considérable survenue sur le marché de Hong Kong, les achats de riz ont repris depuis quelques jours dans la province.\n\nPar suite de ces achats, les riz, dont les prix courants étaient de 7 à 8 ligatures, se vendent 9 ligatures le picul.\n\nPendant cette saison, les transactions sur les cotons sont à peu près nulles. Les grandes exportations qui se font couramment en Chine de coton d'Hainan sont ralenties en ce moment.\n\nLes bois de construction venant du Thanh-Toa sont toujours l'objet d'un grand commerce sur le marché de Phat-Diem.\n\n## AVIS & COMMUNICATIONS \n\n### Ministère de l'instruction publique, des beaux-arts et des cultes\n\n#### Académie de Paris.

Aux États-Unis, notamment, de nombreux imprimés provenant de France tombent en rebut pour ce seul motif.\n\nIl est donc recommandé, dans leur propre intérêt, aux expéditeurs et plus particulièrement aux éditeurs de publications périodiques, de revêtir les journaux et imprimés à destination des pays d'outre-mer, de bandes larges et assez consistantes pour résister au frottement qui se produit dans le trajet. Les paquets pesants et volumineux doivent, en outre, être consolidés au moyen de ficelles disposées de manière à être facilement dénouées.\n\nEnfin, la reproduction, sur l'exemplaire même, de l'adresse que porte la bande ou enveloppe extérieure, peut être considérée comme une précaution utile.\n\n## SÉNAT \n\n**Séance ordinaire 1888**\n\nMM. les sénateurs sont informés que les obsèques de M.

I have the honour to transmit to Your Lordship the enclosed Report of the Surveyor General on a proposal for the Junction of the East and West Prayas by the construction of a sea-wall and roadway of the same character in front of the Royal Naval Yard and Military Cantonments, together with a general plan and estimate of the cost of the work.\n\nThe design in its present shape differs materially from the plans previously submitted, the serious shoaling of the foreshore during recent years having rendered it necessary to move out the line of embankment into deeper water.

SALMON and Lieut.-General CAMERON, both of whom have, I understand, communicated with their respective Departments at home in support of the Project.\n\nHaving therefore no reason to apprehend that either the Admiralty or the War Office will require further modifications of the plan, and presuming that Your Lordship should accede approval to it, the only question which remains to be settled is the important one of contribution towards the cost of the work on the part of the Imperial Government.\n\nBefore entering upon the subject of the Admiralty portion of the proposed work, I should mention that the scheme, lately contemplated, of removing the Naval Yard to Kowloon, and obtaining for the Colony the land now occupied by it, has on further consideration appeared to be a very undesirable one for the Colony. Land is becoming of such value in Kowloon, that the sum likely to be obtained for the present site of the Naval Yard would not be sufficiently in excess of the sum which could be realised for the very much larger area required for the new site to prevent an exceedingly heavy loss to the Colony on the re-erection of the buildings.\n\nOn this ground alone the project did not appear to me to be worthy of further consideration on the part of this Government. There are however other objections to it. \n1. Owing to the rapid growth of population in Kowloon, I apprehend that there would soon arise there the very same condition which has caused so much trouble in Victoria; viz. that created by the cutting of the town into two parts, and the obstruction to free communication between them. \n2. I am disposed to think that with the Naval Yard at Kowloon, there would almost certainly be required some addition to our defence works, involving more expense to the Colony, not only in the cost of construction, but in the loss of the large area required for the necessary fort and to give free range to its guns.\n\nUnder these circumstances the scheme now proposed has appeared to me very far preferable as regards the Colony; and owing to its ready acceptance by the local authorities representing the Admiralty, I imagine it to be also not less desirable in the interests of the Navy. For it will be at once seen from a glance at the plan that the latter gain very largely by it in the following particulars: \n1. by the conversion of the foul and noxious Admiralty foreshore (at present so silted as to be inaccessible during low tide) into a large inland basin accessible at all times, and affording protection to the Naval lighters and boats now left exposed in the open during the typhoon season; \n2. by the formation, beyond the Praya...\n\n...\n\nof the Colonial Government to the foreshore in front of the Commissariat must, therefore, be borne in mind in any discussion that may arise in respect of proprietary rights, though I apprehend Your Lordship will waive those claims, and give the War Department the reclamation in question valued at $114,882, provided that Department should accede to the terms above proposed, viz.: payment of the whole cost of its share of the reclamation.\n\nTo prevent misconception hereafter it should be mentioned, that the precise cost of the works cannot be specified until after all details of design shall have been settled locally with the Royal Engineer Department, and until a tender for the execution of the work shall have been accepted: but the preliminary estimates now put forward are reported by the Surveyor General as being sufficiently approximate to form the basis of any negotiations with the Imperial Departments. Briefly recapitulated the cost of these works will amount to $691,000 of which I propose the Admiralty should pay at least $156,792, that the War Department should pay $320,000, if it desires to retain the lands reclaimed, that Mr. SHARP should pay $21,000, and that the Colonial Government should defray the balance, i.e. $193,208.\n\nI have not deemed it necessary to touch in this Despatch on the many minor provisions that have been stipulated for in local correspondence, both by the Naval and Military Authorities with regard to buildings, piers, fences, walls, roadways, gates, &c. in connexion with the scheme. Suffice it to say that I have met all these requirements, and that no pains will be spared to make the plan acceptable in all its details both to the Naval and Military Authorities. A strenuous effort however, will yet have to be made to obtain from the Naval Authorities some reduction of the great height of \"headway\" which they demand under the bridge over the entrance to the Naval Yard basin, as this height if adhered to will involve unduly steep gradients in the new Praya roadway.\n\nIn conclusion I would remind Your Lordship that the Colonial Government has been now ten years endeavouring to effect the realization of this most important undertaking, that in these ten years of fruitless effort and disappointment, and of almost interminable correspondence with the Imperial Departments, the population of the western town has had time almost to double itself, and to become congested to a dangerous degree, and that in consequence of a situation so full of grave anxiety, it is of vital importance that the War Office as well as the Admiralty should be moved to an early decision. For even if, through Your Lordship's efforts in that behalf, a satisfactory result should be arrived at, and I should then be enabled to cause this much needed work to be commenced during 1889, we can scarcely expect to have the embankment finished before 1893; and only then will it be practicable to establish the tramway communication with the eastern suburbs, so urgently required to lead the population in that direction, and to thus afford a remedy for the evils of overcrowding which at present threaten the health of the Civil community, the Garrison, and the Naval Establishment alike.\n\nI have the honour to be, \nMy Lord, \nYour Lordship's most obedient, \nhumble Servant,\n\n*The actual terms in this case to depend to a certain extent on Your Lordship's decision as to what is to be required from Marine Lot-holder under Mr. CHATER's scheme which is the subject of my despatch No. 234 of the 7th of August, 1888, and I am of opinion that a considerable premium should be paid in addition in respect of this reclamation.\n\nNo. 11.\n\nThe Right Honourable \nTHE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-241 - Governor Des Voeus - 1889 [1-7].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 339005, "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": "CO129-241 - Governor Des Voeus - 1889 [1-7]", "page_number": 441, "title": "CO129-241 - Governor Des Voeus - 1889 [1-7]", "content_text": "**men-of-war**\n\nColonial Ports by foreign men-of-war and Transports in time of peace.\n\n2.

The plans referred to have been transmitted to the Admiralty, and will be furnished to you as soon as they are returned.\n\nMr. Stanhope will remember, that in the arrangement proposed to him in the letter from this department, of the 16th January 1888, a smaller reclamation was contemplated, for the purpose of carrying the Praya roadway in front of the naval and military premises, and the Colonial Government was to provide a new naval yard at Kowloon, to take over a portion of the military land, and to contribute the cost of military buildings in another locality.\n\nIt now appears that there are very serious difficulties which render the construction of a naval yard at Kowloon practically impossible, and the present scheme has been prepared with a view of effecting the junction of the East and West Praya, without necessitating the removal of the present naval yard or any of the War Department buildings, to which, at the same time, increased accommodation will be added.\n\nIt appears indeed that, so far from any injury being done, the adoption of the present scheme would result in a very great advantage to both the naval and the military departments, and that in the case of the latter, a very large quantity of valuable land will be added to the present holdings.\n\nIt is estimated that the value of the land to be reclaimed in front of the War Office property will be at least 1,325,000 dollars, while the cost of that portion of the proposed works which is opposite to the military cantonments, and which will secure this reclamation, is estimated at only 320,000 dollars. In these circumstances, the Governor proposes that the War Department should undertake to bear the initial cost of its portion of the scheme. Lord Knutsford has nothing to add to the arguments by which Sir George des Voeux supports his proposal, and his Lordship hopes that Mr. Stanhope will accept an arrangement which appears to be so advantageous to the War Department.\n\n Lord Knutsford understands that a rearrangement of the military buildings is in contemplation, in connection with the provision of accommodation for the increased garrison, and he would be glad to learn whether, in event of the War Department being desirous of disposing of the portion of the North Barracks site alluded to by the Governor in paragraph 14 of his despatch, the price of 3 dollars a square foot therein offered would be accepted.\n\nIn paragraph 10 of Sir George des Voeux's despatch, he states that the military authorities have in contemplation to sell a portion of their property in the open market, and I am to express Lord Knutsford's doubt whether this can be legally done without the consent and assistance of the Governor. When, by the Treaty of Nankin, Hong Kong was ceded by China to Great Britain, the soil of the island vested in the Crown, and it seems to his Lordship that neither the civil nor the military authorities would have power to dispose of any portion of the original Crown lands in the island, without an express authority from the Crown. Such authority is delegated to the Governor by the Letters Patent constituting his office, but while successive Governors have granted leases to persons desirous of occupying land in the island, such leases containing a power to resume the land on certain conditions, it is believed that no freehold titles have been granted to any person. Large tracts of land were in the earliest days of the colony given up to the military authorities for military purposes, and these are vested in the Secretary of State for War, under the Ordinance 6 of 1860, but this arrangement would appear to give no more than a right to the possession, and not a right to alienate these lands. If this be so, any attempt to sell in the open market must, it would seem, fail from the inability of the military authorities to make a title. Lord Knutsford does not advance these questions with any desire of impeding the alienation of military properties, but at the same time he thinks it may be better to mention the view which is held in this department, in respect to the military reserves in the colonies.\n\nThe Under Secretary of State,\n\nWar Office.\n\nI am, &c.,\n\nJOHN BRAMSTON.\n\nMy Lord,\n\n(Enclosed with letter from Colonial Office of 6th May 1889.)\n\nSir G. W. des Vœux to Lord Knutsford.\n\nGovernment House, Hong Kong,\n\n15th January 1889. Referring to previous correspondence on the subject, I have the honour to transmit to your Lordship the enclosed report of the Surveyor-General on a proposal for the junction of the East and West Prayas, by the construction of a sea wall and roadway of the same character in front of the Royal Naval Yard and military cantonments, together with a general plan and estimate of the cost of the work.\n\n2. The design, in its present shape, differs materially from the plans previously submitted, the serious shoaling of the foreshore during recent years having rendered it necessary to move out the line of embankment into deeper water. But this alteration, though it will increase the cost of the work, will afford more than full compensation by the much larger area which will be made available for reclamation, and as the new design is still more favourable to naval and military interests than any previous one, there has been no difficulty in securing for it the approval of the Vice-Admiral, Sir N. Salmon, and Lieut-General Cameron, both of whom have, I understand, communicated with their respective departments at home in support of the project.\n\n3. Having, therefore, no reason to apprehend that either the Admiralty or the War Office will require further modifications of the plan, and presuming that your Lordship should accede approval to it, the only question which remains to be settled is the important one of contribution towards the cost of the work on the part of the Imperial Government.\n\n4. Before entering upon the subject of the Admiralty portion of the proposed work, I should mention that the scheme, lately contemplated, of removing the naval yard to Kowloon, and obtaining for the colony the land now occupied by it has, on further consideration, appeared to be a very undesirable one for the colony. Land is becoming of such value in Kowloon, that the sum likely to be obtained for the present site of the naval yard would not be sufficiently in excess of the sum which could be realized for the very much larger area required for the new site, to prevent an exceedingly heavy loss to the colony on the re-erection of the buildings.\n\n5. On this ground alone the project did not appear to me to be worthy of further consideration on the part of this Government. There are, however, other objections to it---\n\n(1.) Owing to the rapid growth of population in Kowloon, I apprehend that there would soon arise there the very same condition which has caused so much trouble in Victoria, viz., that created by the cutting of the town into two parts, and the obstruction to free communication between them.\n\n(2.) I am disposed to think that, with the naval yard at Kowloon, there would almost certainly be required some addition to our defence works, involving more expense to the colony, not only in the cost of construction, but in the loss of the large area required for the necessary fort, and to give free range to its guns.\n\n6. Under these circumstances the scheme now proposed has appeared to me very far preferable as regards the colony, and owing to its ready acceptance by the local authorities representing the Admiralty, I imagine it to be also not less desirable in the interests of the Navy; for it will be at once seen from a glance at the plan that the latter gain very largely by it in the following particulars :-\n\n(1.)

No. 2121\n\nSir,\n\nTreasury to War Office.\n\nTreasury Chambers, 15th February, 1890.\n\nThe Lords Commissioners of Her Majesty's Treasury have had before them your letter of the 6th instant, in further explanation of the barrack works at Hong Kong, for which Mr. Secretary Stanhope has ordered contracts to be entered into in anticipation of my Lords' covering sanction.\n\nMy Lords are aware of the difficulties that have prevented the preparation, as yet, of anything like a complete programme of expenditure under Head 3, \"Barracks at Coaling Stations,\" of Schedule 2 of the Imperial Defence Act, 1888. The War Department is still unaware of the amount of the proceeds of sales and Colonial Contributions that will be at their disposal for expenditure under this head, in addition to the 350,000l. named in the Act as the amount that may be spent out of the loan.\n\nThe estimate of total requirements made in 1888 was 764,000l., leaving no less than 414,000l. to be met from the uncertain resources above indicated. Moreover, if all works were postponed at each station until a complete plan had been framed for the particular station concerned, the strengthening of the garrison would be delayed. My Lords therefore are reluctantly submitting to the receipt of piecemeal estimates, first for part of the works at one station and then for part of the works at another, with only a distant prospect of finality. This method of procedure is unbusiness-like, but perhaps inevitable, and, as already pointed out to the War Department in my Lords' letter of 22nd November, 1888, is almost certain to lead to an excess over the Parliamentary division.\n\nMy Lords have been led to make these remarks by the more than ordinary variations that have distinguished the estimates for Hong Kong. In June, 1888, the Inspector-General of Fortifications formed a very rough estimate of the cost of replacing accommodation, if certain premises were sold; it was a round sum of 50,000l., without any details, and was quite independent of the cost of accommodating any increase of the garrison. In January, 1889, came a detailed estimate for the same service, which had been framed on the spot. It amounted to 50,600l. and comprised (adding 10 per cent. for contingencies) 16,500l. for 42 married quarters (or about 393l. each), and 11,000l. for barracks for two half batteries. Again in July, 1889, an estimate of 50,000l. was submitted, for barrack and hospital accommodation. Now, plans have been...\n\n## \n\n30\n\nBut, in addition to these, a considerable number of new married quarters are required in consequence of the increase in the Hong Kong garrison authorized by the Cabinet. 28 quarters have therefore to be built in addition to the 42 quarters to be replaced, and it is considered that, under present circumstances, 30,000l. is not too much to allow for the whole number.\n\nAs regards the last paragraph of the letter now under reply, I am to observe that it is difficult, until contracts shall have been entered into, to state exactly to what extent the estimate of 50,600l. for barracks to be provided in lieu of those to be sold will be exceeded; but that, in any case, it is anticipated that the amount will be far less than the sum realized by the sale of the barracks, as the value of land is increasing greatly in Hong Kong.\n\nI am to add that, in the meantime, arrangements cannot be made for the sale of the land, nor can the increased garrison be accommodated until the barracks shall have been built. Mr. Secretary Stanhope, therefore, trusts that their Lordships will give an early decision on the proposals in question, which have now been for a long time under consideration.\n\nW. ST. JOHN BRODRICK.\n\n31\n\nPrepared in this country for part of the whole scheme, including some accommodation for an increase of the garrison, and the estimate is 30,000l. for 70 married quarters, or about 429l. each, and 10,000l. for one-half battery instead of two. My Lords can feel no security that, when the plans have reached Hong Kong, modifications may not prove necessary, which will lead to a yet further increase of the expense. They do not know whether it is possible to devise any safeguard against such uncertainties; but they think it right to bring the facts to the notice of the Secretary of State.\n\nMy Lords give their covering sanction for the commencement of the works in question, at a total estimated cost of 40,000l.\n\nBut they would be glad if, in future, the character of the estimate submitted could be more precisely stated, so that my Lords might know whether they were considering only the rough preliminary guess, or the approximate estimate before plans, or the finished estimate after plans, or the results of any later stage of experience, and how far the estimate is for only part, or for the whole of a scheme.\n\nMy Lords must also strongly urge upon the Secretary of State that no further contracts should be entered into for works at coaling stations, without the previous approval of this department. If this rule be observed, their Lordships will undertake that no delay shall occur, on their part, in giving immediate attention to all pressing cases.\n\nR. E. WELBY.\n\n## No. 22.\n\nSir,\n\nColonial Office to War Office.\n\nDowning Street, 9th May, 1890.\n\nWith reference to the correspondence which has passed on the subject of the extension of the Praya at Hong Kong, in front of the North Barracks and Naval Yard, I am directed by Lord Knutsford to state, for the consideration of Mr. Secretary Stanhope, that Sir G. W. Des Vœux, who is now in England, has laid before this department a proposal for settling the question which would seem to be free from some of the objections which have been urged against previous suggestions, and which deserves the most serious attention, if indeed it has not already been brought directly to the notice of the War Office.\n\n2. It is argued by Sir W. Des Vœux that as long as the Naval Yard is in its present situation, the plan of carrying the Praya Road in front of it must be abandoned, owing to the steepness of the gradient at that part where it passed over the tunnel into the proposed naval boat basin, and it is suggested that the War Office should be invited to surrender to the Colonial Government all the lands at present held by the military authorities, in Hong Kong and Kowloon, except those occupied by and in the immediate neighbourhood of forts, and should receive in exchange a large area of land on Causeway Bay, and on the slopes above it, together with a reclamation from the harbour extending beyond the recent reclamation in the bay in question, to the breakwater, which forms the present boat refuge from Typhoons. Further, that the Colonial Government should agree, in consideration of the greater value of the land acquired in the centre of the town and at Kowloon, to make the necessary reclamation, to provide a new boat refuge elsewhere, and to erect free of charge all the buildings required by the military for their various establishments, including accommodation for the additional troops which are to be added to the garrison.\n\n3. In the contemplated area at Causeway Bay, there is said to be space sufficient not only for all military purposes but also for all the requirements of the Navy, and the scheme in its entirety includes the provision, in the same locality, of all the naval establishments now existing in Victoria and Kowloon.

As we are informed, matters are by no means so advanced as that, but it is the case that the project is being seriously entertained by the directorate of the Eastern Extension.\n\nPrimarily the idea was prompted by Imperial considerations, and it was as a naval strategic line, and as giving an alternative to the existing cable via Saigon that various admirals, chiefly Sir VESEY HAMILTON and Sir NOWELL SALMON, recommended this scheme as strategically advisable. But neither Hongkong, the Straits Settlements, nor the Imperial Government could give any subsidy, and commercially the cable was hardly wanted as the Saigon cable itself, even now, can scarcely be said to be quite fully occupied.\n\nAs to the chance of local traffic from Sarawak, Labuan, and North Borneo, that would be so infinitesimal that it would not be worth mentioning, however valuable an aid it might prove to the ultimate commercial development of those regions.\n\nThe scheme has again been suggested by the Company itself on the general principle of strengthening its cables by duplication or the provision of alternatives. And it is understood to be a fact that it is the Singapore-Saigon link that is the weakest, there being for this section only one cable. The Penang-Singapore link has three cables: Penang-Madras, two; Java-Australia, three; and Saigon to China, one being direct and one via Tonkin.\n\nIt is contemplated, anyway, to duplicate the Hongkong-Philippine section to Bolinao, and therefore the scheme now to be submitted to the shareholders for approval at the general meeting at the end of April will involve a cable from Singapore to Bolinao, taking Sarawak, Labuan, and North Borneo en route to Palawan and Bolinao.\n\nThe Manila Government have had a scheme in view for extending telegraphic communication through the Southern Philippines in short local links, and the existence of these would facilitate the connection by the route to Bolinao for Hongkong.\n\nAt the close of last year, we believe, the Hongkong and Straits Governments were approached again by the Company in the hope of obtaining subsidies, but \"owing to the state of the Colony's finances,\" Sir CECIL SMITH could hold out no hope. The same reply is understood to have been given at Hongkong.\n\nIt will therefore be seen that by no means can it be said that the scheme is sure to be executed. The proposed cable will run to about 1,900 miles, which at about £230 or more per mile will amount to not far under half-a-million of money. It so happens that the reserve of the Company is about £425,000, and it is uncertain how far shareholders will regard a proposal that would absorb an amount equal to the reserve funds.\n\nHowever, if approval be given to the scheme on the grounds of general policy, the funds for this would be raised by debenture bonds in the same way as money was obtained for the West Australian cable. The cable from Hongkong to Bolinao, however, (say 500 miles) would be constructed out of the reserve fund.\n\nOrdinarily, for such a line as is proposed, it would require an annual income of from £46,000 to £48,000 to make ends meet. There would be, say, 3 per cent. for amortisation, renewals, &c., 2 or 3 per cent. for working expenses, and 5 per cent. to meet interest on capital; total 10 or 11 per cent.\n\nThat is really, as we are informed, the position of the scheme, and it is premature just now to reckon upon its execution till the views of the shareholders are ascertained.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-258 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1893 [1-4].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 351370, "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": "CO129-258 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1893 [1-4]", "page_number": 285, "title": "CO129-258 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1893 [1-4]", "content_text": "4\n\n1\n\nfact that the present means of communication on the one hand vary that such a line, if laid, with Labuan.

In view even vital time of fields of she very great importance of the conc Lahnen, Adenial Salmon strongly recommended that the Company has for some time had under consideration the advisability of duplicating the existing cable between Singapore & Manila, a length of about 500 miles.\n\nFor the information of the Executive Council, the Directors would, if supported by the Govt, be prepared to consider the practicability of effecting this object by laying without delay a cable from Singapore to Labuan and there to connect with our existing Manila to Borneo line, to Broughing.\n\nThis route would give both Singapore and Borneo independent ...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-258 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1893 [1-4].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 351450, "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": "CO129-258 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1893 [1-4]", "page_number": 365, "title": "CO129-258 - Governor Sir Robinson - 1893 [1-4]", "content_text": "364\n\n10. Evergreen shrubs and trees carried on their leaves solid coverings of ice of an inch in thickness. The great weight of this ice caused the branches of trees to assume a pendent form, the strain in many cases causing the limbs to snap off with a crash. All vegetation throughout the hill regions of the Colony was thus covered with ice, as were also most other objects. Telegraph and telephone wires from Victoria Gap upwards were covered with ice of an inch in thickness, and in addition, carried icicles as much as 3 inches in length as close as they could be packed side by side. This caused many of the telephone wires to break, and the iron post at Victoria Gap which supported them was snapped off a few inches above the ground.\n\n11. The windward sides of the walls of the look-out house at the Peak were from top to bottom covered with perfectly transparent ice of an inch in thickness.\n\n23. Accompanying this report are six photographic views which were taken on the 16th January owing to the ice at various places in the Peak district. It is somewhat difficult to represent ice in photographs, as bright light has much the same effect as ice which owes its white appearance merely to reflected light, but it will be understood that the white in these views is produced by ice.\n\nNo. 1 is a view of Cryptomeria japonica trees and Cycas revoluta near Mountain Lodge, with Mount Kellet in the distant background.\n\nNo. 2 is the look-out house at the signal-station, Victoria Peak. It shows icicles on the house, and at the base of the house grass vegetation covered with ice. It was here where the measurements were taken of grass bents covered with 5 inches in circumference of ice.\n\nNo. 3 represents a tree of Pinus sinensis encased with ice.\n\nNo. 4 exhibits an ornamental structure in Mr. BELIOS' garden at \"The Eyrie\" in which were various tender plants encased with thick ice.\n\n12. All the hills on the mainland and Lantao island were likewise white with ice, one of the hills (3,147 feet) of Lantao having what appeared to be snow for some few hundreds of feet down from its summit. As early as the evening of the 15th January the summit of Taimoshan (about 3,300 feet) on the mainland had assumed a whitish appearance, presumably from ice or snow.\n\n13. The effect of the extremely low temperature on vegetation has been disastrous.\n\nIn appendix\n\nA the names of plants, chiefly exotic, in the Botanic Gardens which have suffered more or less are given.\n\n14. Appendix B enumerates indigenous plants which were injured.\n\n15. The damages in the Gardens consist chiefly in the injury or destruction of leaves, but some plants are quite killed, these being natives of much warmer regions than Hongkong. Many of the decorative plants which were not killed will be months before they can regain their ornamental appearance.\n\n16. Every possible precaution was adopted to minimise the effect of the cold. The plant-houses, which are provided with screens merely to produce shade, were all matted in and the roofs covered with straw.\n\nOf ferns in the houses Polypodium heracleum and Adiantum tetradactylon suffered most, other kinds being but little affected.\n\n17. In the orchid-house, which was covered with mats and straw, all our best orchids have suffered very greatly, many being entirely killed while others were so much injured that, even if they survive, it may be some years before they regain their previous luxuriant state. A healthy plant, received from Calcutta several years ago, of Dendrobium aggregatum is apparently killed while plants of the same species growing by its side, and also others on trees where they had no shelter, which I collected 10 years ago on the Lo-fau mountains, about 60 miles from Canton, have escaped unharmed. This seems to show the capability of the plant in adapting itself to colder regions than it is generally found. In ordinary winters the temperature is too low for many kinds of orchids and other tender plants. These should be provided with glass-houses in which a little artificial heat could be maintained.\n\n18. Tender pot-plants generally were removed to sheltered places and covered with mats.\n\n19. The highest point of the Gardens is 320 feet above sea level, the lowest part 175 feet. Some plants of the same kinds which were damaged at the upper portions were uninjured at the lower parts of the Gardens.\n\n20. Of exotic trees planted on the hills Albizzia Lebbek, Aleurites triloba (candle-nut-tree) and Eugenia Jambos (the rose-apple-tree) had all their leaves killed at and upwards of 600 feet above sea level. Trees of the rose-apple at about 800 feet altitude have been entirely killed.\n\n21. At 600 feet altitude indigenous plants began to be affected, the injuries increasing with higher altitude until at about 900 feet when the extreme limit of low temperature which some plants could bear was reached, and death ensued. Most of these are tropical plants of which Hongkong, Formosa, the Luchu Islands in the Far East, and Sikkim and Himalaya in India are the northern limits of the geographical area from which they have been recorded. Of the plants killed or injured, Ficus Harlandi, Benth., Gordonia anomala, Spreng., and Garcinia oblongifolia, Champ. are known only from Hongkong. Although many of our indigenous plants have not been yet discovered elsewhere, it is to be expected that when China is better known they will be found over a larger area than the restricted one of this island. The fact of the above named plants having succumbed to the late frost indicates that when they are discovered elsewhere they will be found southward of Hongkong.\n\n22. Considerable damage to vegetation seems to have been caused about Canton where the alluvial lands are highly cultivated. The Reverend Dr. B. C. HENRY, in a letter dated 26th January, informs me that \"The destruction of vegetation about Canton has been very great. The banana plantations are ruined, and the bamboos have suffered. The Aleurites triloba look all shrivelled up, while Begonias, Euphorbias, Crotons and scores of others are simply destroyed.\" What Dr. HENRY reports indicates severer weather at Canton than here, as is proved by the reports of the steamers above referred to, Aleurites triloba leaves being shrivelled up at Canton, while they are here at 300 feet altitude uninjured, but at 600 feet here they are affected, and completely destroyed a little higher up the hill.\n\nNo. 5 shows ice-covered bamboos and wire netting near Mount Austin Hotel.\n\nNo. 6 is a scene of Pine trees at about 1,000 feet above sea level.\n\nHonourable G.

I counted in the day several flocks of over 100 sheep and several heads of over 50 ponies. The mutton and beef of Yunnan is almost as good as at home. Mules are bred in the hills north of Teng Yueh, but the sires are very small jackasses, and saw none but the ordinary small transport mule, which does the Bhamo carrying trade. Many of the people here are solely occupied in tending flocks and herds; but there is also a good deal of cultivation in the uplands---buckwheat, maize, wheat, and opium in sheltered spots being the chief crops. The land is prepared by a sort of skinning process, 4 to 6 inches of soil, containing all the roots of the grasses, being stripped off the land and piled in heaps over its face. These piles are then set on fire, and allowed to smoulder, the ashes serving as manure.\n\nOn the afternoon of our march from the Hsiang Yang Bridge we descended from 8,400 feet by a very steep path from the downs to the Valley of Ta Hsi Lienu, near its chief market town, Ku Tung Kai. Near Ku Tung there are several large and flourishing villages, All the country, indeed, between Ku Tung and the Ta Ying Shan north of Teng Yueh presents a most pleasing appearance, the villages being surrounded with ample orchards and pastures. The excessive droughts of the winter and spring in Central Yunnan are here tempered by local spring rains, which is a great boon to the shepherd folk, who have no difficulty in finding grass for their herds.\n\nNear Ku Tung I halted a day, at the request of the villagers, to shoot wild (bar-heads), which do great harm by browsing on the young opium and wheat shoots, and I disposed of fifteen of these marauders. We then marched west from Ku Tung up a lateral valley and over a pass 8,500 feet, leaving the Shweli Basin, and passing into the Valley of Ku Yung, which belongs to the Taiping system. This track is so narrow as to be impassable at some places for mules laden, and the packs have to be carried, but a little spade work is all that is required to broaden it out. The chief botanical features of this and of the other neighbouring ranges which I traversed are rhododendron trees, sometimes growing to a height of 30 feet, and covered in March with masses of rich red blossoms, a small lilac-coloured oxslip, which fills, not unworthily, the place of the home primrose, and in high, damp, sheltered spots a small and graceful primula of a delicate mauve colour. The folds and summits of these ranges are still covered with dense forest, but there is little timber of much value. Teng Yueh is, however, supplied with wood from these hills. The Kalej pheasant is by no means rare, and on the lower slopes the common pheasant of the country (Stone's, or Phasianus elegans) is frequently met with.\n\nThe country through which I passed is a country in compartments, consisting of valleys divided from each other by broad mountain ranges. The further north-east the nearer to the headwaters of the Taiping and Shweli Valleys-I was able to penetrate, the narrower and smaller were the valleys, and the more extensive and complicated was the mountain system; but a description of one of the passes from valley to valley would apply to nearly all the others.\n\nKu Yung is a market of fifty houses in a long and narrow but fertile and populous valley about 10 miles by 1 mile. It is the starting-point of the main track to the Upper Irrawadi, Mytkina, and the Burmah jade mines via the Kao Liang Pass (10,000 feet), and a number of the Ku Yung people are in the habit of going over into Burmah on petty trading expeditions. The pass is still infested by robbers, though there are supposed to be 200-and really are some 90-soldiers at Ku Yung, and a post of 15 men at Tatto, where the ascent of the Kao Liang commences. There is also a Lisan headman, the agent of the \"Fu yi,\" or Lisaw Chief of Tan Tsa-Lan Ma, but hitherto we have quite failed to get redress for robberies committed on this part of the frontier.\n\nOn the 5th March we moved up the Ta Ho, at the junction of the Ka Yang stream with the Taiping River, which here runs through wild country over a rocky course (20-25 yards wide in March) with some fine pools; it is almost like a salmon stream at home, but though there are salmon in Monmouth and in Macedon, there are none in Yunnan, and in the upper waters of the Taiping mahseer are very difficult to catch.\n\nOn the 6th March, in heavy rain succeeding nocturnal thunderstorms, we marched up the Ta Ho gorge in a northerly direction, and then turned east up a stiff ascent to 7,800 feet, whence there was a good view of the precipitous mountains whence the Taiping River takes its source. San Cha Ho, 5 miles north of Ta Ho, and consisting, like it, of a few scattered Lisaw huts, is the junction of the three head-waters of the Taiping River, which are:-\n\n1. The Ta Ho, which springs from the mountains not far from the sources of the Shingaw River, which flows into the N'maikha (the eastern branch of the Irrawadi);\n\n2. The Tan Tsa stream which comes in from the north; and\n\n3. The Lun Ma stream which comes from the east of San Cha Ho. There is a route over into the Shingaw Valley from Ku Yung, viâ San Cha Ho, by which the N'maikha can be reached in four days. By this pass, the watershed is crossed close to the mountain Manung Pum, which is the most northerly point of the demarcated frontier. This track was reported to me as not being passable for mules, and as being used only by a few Lisaw porters. There is also stated to be a route into the N'maikha Basin from Tan Tsa over a snow mountain, which is difficult, and in bad weather impassable even for porters; this track would, after passing into the N'maikha Basin, strike the head-waters of its tributary the Tummaw. The population in these hills round the head-waters of the Taiping is very scanty, and so far as I could find out, the Chinese have at this point no pretensions to any jurisdiction in the N'maikha Basin.\n\nThe little Plain of Lun Ma, which we reached in five hours' rough mountain march from Ta Ho, is only 2 miles by a mile, and contains only two villages, one Chinese and one Lisaw. The Plain of Tan Tsa is situated about 5 miles to the north of and is even smaller than Lun Ma, but it is the residence of the local Lisaw \"fu yi,\" or hereditary Chief.\n\nAs we entered the Lisaw country near Ta Ho, I may give a few notes on these people. They chiefly inhabit the higher valleys and slopes at an altitude above the Kachin villages on the N'maikba side, and above the Chinese villages on the Yunnan side. They are mostly scattered about in small hamlets of three to five families; they have been expelled from most of the padi lands which they once possessed, and now live chiefly on maize and buckwheat. The commercial activity chiefly consists in bringing down hemp, firewood, wheat, and the bark of the Koutree (Edgeworthia Gardneri), from which paper is made, to the Chinese hazaars in exchange for salt, cotton, clothing, rice, and opium. They mostly grow their own tobacco; their houses are of bamboo wattles, and divided into three partitions and thatched with dried grass. In the Kuyang Lun Ma district they claim to have come from either Pa Chiao or Sima, near the British frontier, and they assert that their principal Chief used to reside at Meng Ka, near Sima, in the old days before the appearance of the Kachins; but their real origin must be looked for elsewhere. It is almost certainly to be found in the valley of the Upper Salwen, where the bulk of the population is still Lisaw. The Lisaw race is probably, like the Kachins, an offshoot from the south-eastern edges of the Thibetan plateau. About Meng Ka and Lun Ma there is obviously a strong strain of Chinese blood in the Lisaws, but on nearing the Upper Salwen the Thibetan type and physique is strongly marked. It does not appear that there is any tradition of the Lisaws ever having been in possession of any of the main valleys; indeed, they themselves state that they put in an appearance in these parts after the Chinese, but before the Kachins. The Lisaws near Ku Yung have adopted Chinese habits and language to such an extent that they can hardly understand their cousins from the Salwen, but even those who have adopted Chinese dress preserve the hempen gaiters, tightly bound under the knee and falling loosely to the ankle, which are a characteristic feature of their national dress. Cotton garments are an innovation. The \"black,\" or wild Lisaw of the Upper Salwen, of whom I saw a few specimens, were entirely clad in coarse hemp, and wore rude turbans of the same material; the gaiters, the long robe and short trousers completed the costume, while their ornaments consisted of light silver bracelets and necklets of plaited straw, from which hung small shells, pebbles, and bits of silver. The Lisaw always goes about armed with his heavy, broadsword in a univalve wooden scabbard, and with his crossbow and bundle of hardened bamboo-arrows, which will penetrate an inch of deal at a distance of 30 yards. Some part of his person, the strap of his sword, or even his pigtail, if he has one, is invariably adorned with small shells, though in other respects he may be a \"short coat,\" i.e., if he is dressed in Chinese fashion and has discarded the hempen or \"long coat\" of his ancestors. The women dress very differently in nearly every community which I visited, but their heads and bodies are always adorned with shells, bits of deers' horns, and odds and ends of silver and pebbles. The real Lisaw female dress is a hempen kilt and short hemp jacket, with a cap encrusted with shells, but in Upper Ming Kwang the kilt has become a tightish petticoat worn under a long cotton robe, with a broad cotton belt adorned with patchwork of red, green, and white.\n\nThe Lisaw coolie carries 50 lbs. on his back, and is a good porter in difficult country.\n\nPage 366", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-326 - Foreign Office - 1904.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 395063, "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": "CO129-326 - Foreign Office - 1904", "page_number": 400, "title": "CO129-326 - Foreign Office - 1904", "content_text": "5.

I asked him why he did so and the cook said that when he had finished his meal he could go away. The man was carrying a small bag. I then went on with my washing. Nothing more happened until about a quarter of an hour had passed when I heard an explosion abaft the 1st Class cabins on the upper deck. I was then standing near the top of the boiler drying my clothes. I ran into the saloon and asked the Captain if he had any arms. The Captain asked me what was the matter and I said there was something wrong. Dr. MacDonald was also in the cabin. A \"stink-pot\" was then thrown in through the window on the port side and a shot fired. I rushed out on the starboard side after Dr. MacDonald. I saw several men run round from the port side. I saw Dr. MacDonald fall. I put my hand near his head to protect him and was shot in the hand. I cried to the pirates not to shoot and received a shot in the mouth. I then ran below to the boiler room. I was unconscious for some time. The Engineer came and helped me. (Klin Mahomet, his mark) \n\nAli Akbar, 20, duly sworn, stated:- \n\nI came on duty at 6 p.m..

The rate at which salaries were paid last month was 2.2%; the rate at which remittances were made was 2.1%.\n\nI have therefore the honour to invite Your Excellency's consideration of the following propositions:-\n\n(a). that the introduction of the fluctuations of the silver market during the previous month into the computation of salaries is unsound in principle:\n\n(b). that the just and reasonable method of paying salaries is to adopt the rate at the end of the month, in order to enable civil servants to remit at approximately the same rate as that at which their salaries are paid.\n\nIt is to my knowledge that at least one of the leading firms in the Colony acts on this principle. It should not be impossible for the Government to act on a similar principle, and to devise a system by which the pay sheets should be prepared to enable this to be done. In the months of 1906, referred to in the table annexed to Your Excellency's letter, the fluctuations in exchange between the 25th, and the end of the month amounted in nearly all cases to about 1/4.\n\nI trust that in view of the importance of the subject that Your Excellency will bring the matter before the Executive Council for their advice, and that it may be submitted to the Secretary of State as soon as possible.\n\nI have etc.,\n\n(83.)

Satow in his despatch No. 8 of the 20th May, 1905 (pp. 9, 10, and 11 of the Burmah Government printed Report).\n\nOn the 1st May, 1906, Sir E. Satow addressed a note to Prince Ch'ing stating that, failing the acceptance by the Chinese Government of the draft Article laying down the watershed as the frontier, the Burmah Government would be instructed to occupy and administer the country.\n\nThe Wai-wu Pu's answer (undated in the translation in the Consulate) merely refers to the IVth Article of the Burmah Convention, stating that a settlement should be negotiated in an impartial spirit.\n\nThe author of the Petition referred to above is a not very prominent Tengyueh man, Wu Chia Yuan, whose name is not inserted in it because he has another case against the Tu Ssu Tuan Tseng, his Secretary Yang-wei-fan, and three Ming-kuang Chinese, Hsu Lin Hsiang, Chen Fu-yu, and Ku Fu-pa. The actual petitioners, ten in number, are all small merchants. The Petition states that the old custom was that for every tree belonging to the Tu Ssu cut by the traders, three large and three small boards were paid to him. (This statement does not agree with the Report, and is false.) A tree produced fifty or sixty sets of boards. No boards were paid to the Tu Ssu when bought ready-cut from the natives. \"Huang lien\" paid nothing to the Tu Ssu.\n\nThe new rules are that the sellers of trees pay a tax to the Tu Ssu, and one set of boards in fifteen is demanded; 10 taels for every load of \"huang lien\"; and 30 taels for newly-instituted road passes. The mountain passes have been shut to allow the accused in Wu Chia Yuan's case to enjoy a monopoly.\n\nI have the honour to submit that the reason for the Tu Ssu's action is to be found in the proposal (p. 19 of the printed Report and subsequent negotiations) to pay a sum extinguishing his rights in the Nmai-Hka Valley, and that he hopes to obtain a larger sum than that offered by declaring that his receipts have lately increased.\n\nOn the other hand, the nearest Burmah posts are at Loringu and Sadon, and although we claim the territory, we have no outward and visible sign of authority within some seven days' journey or more.\n\nIt would not have been any use to raise the question of the actual frontier with the Taotai, but I thought it advisable to take up the question of the increased rates of taxation. I have therefore written him a letter, translation of which I have the honour to inclose, stating that some merchants had petitioned me with regard to the tyrannical behaviour of the Tu Ssu in increasing their taxes, and that I should be obliged if he would instruct him to revert to the old tariff.\n\nIn his answer, translation of which I have also the honour to inclose, the Taotai states that he considered the matter an internal one, but that he will instruct the Pao Shan Hsien, in whose jurisdiction Tengkeng lies, to come to a just decision.\n\nI venture to express the opinion that the uncertainty of the Pien-ma villagers as to which country they belong will not, if long continued, facilitate the occupancy of the territory by the Burmah Government, for which they are anxious at present.\n\nI have, &c.

I observed that the matter was an internal one, and therefore did not do so, but I endorsed a Memorandum to the Yung Chang Prefect to instruct the Pao Shan Hsien to investigate the case.\n\nOn receipt of your note, I have again instructed the Prefect to transmit orders to the Magistrate to summon without delay the accusers, the accused, and the witnesses, and to investigate the case; not to permit the Tu Ssu to enforce tyrannical measures, nor to allow the merchants to escape the payment of just dues, and to come to a just decision.

President of the Superior Board of Health.\n\nDear Sir:- Doctors Angel Vallarino and Luis Buhot will do me the favour to inform you respecting the conditions of the passengers by the Steamship \"Suisang\" belonging to this Company in regard to whose report I last Saturday requested your kind consideration, which you were good enough to assure me should be given to it.\n\nI should be extremely grateful if with your customary sense of rectitude and politeness you would have the goodness to pay attention to what Messrs Vallarino and Buhot have to say, in order to arrive at a true understanding of the disputed facts which is of such importance alike for the health of the Republic and for the interests and just treatment of the China Commercial Steamship Company.\n\nThanking you in anticipation for according me the favour", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-352 - Public Offices - 1908.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 417039, "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": "CO129-352 - Public Offices - 1908", "page_number": 365, "title": "CO129-352 - Public Offices - 1908", "content_text": "362\n\nhave eventually disseminated in all parts of the Republic the disease against which we are labouring to protect it.\n\nFor this reason both the Board and the Ministry of the Interior supported the decision of the Delegates in respect to the removal of the \"Suisang\" to a distance of two miles from the coast.\n\nThe immigrants were not unprovided with water and provisions; in the first place because at the time when complaints to that effect were raised the \"Suisang\" had not yet left the Port, and secondly, because in lieu of only twenty-four hours' grace as requested by the British Consul, the vessel remained in Port from the 16th, the day on which the order for her departure was given, until the morning of the 20th, thus allowing amply sufficient time for obtaining the necessary supplies. Neither could such supplies have subsequently been wanting, for as may be seen from document No.42, the Delegate made application to the Chief of the Port requesting him to indicate some spot on the wharf at which the \"Suisang\" could take on board her supplies.\n\nThis communication bears date the 19th of June, as I have just been informed by the second Medical Delegate in a telegram dated the 4th instant which has not been included amongst the preceding copies. Neither were supplies wanting whilst the vessel was lying two miles off the shore, as is proved by document No.43 giving particulars of the accounts against the vessel for water and provisions supplied to it by means of the Tug \"Ramon Corral\".\n\nThe foregoing prove that the complaints made by the Chinese residents in Mexico before Their Excellencies the British and Chinese Ministers are entirely devoid of foundation.\n\nThe procedure adopted in the case of the \"Landrat Schieff\", the vessel which arrived at Salina Cruz subsequent to the \"Suisang\", has been precisely the same as in the case of the last-named vessel. All the vessels which have previously arrived at Salina Cruz, whether belonging to the China Commercial Steamship Company", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-352 - Public Offices - 1908.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 417050, "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": "CO129-352 - Public Offices - 1908", "page_number": 376, "title": "CO129-352 - Public Offices - 1908", "content_text": "373\n\nFive of whom had already found means of surreptitiously leaving the vessel.\n\nXIII. The order obliging the vessel to lie two miles off the Port did not deprive her of water and provisions, seeing that she had more than seventy-two hours during which to take on board such supplies; did it prevent her from renewing these supplies, because a spot was selected at the wharf, in the port, to which she could return for this purpose, when desired; and, as a matter of fact, she suffered from no scarcity of supplies, as the same were being furnished to her by the Tug \"Ramon Carral\".\n\nXIV. One of the objects of keeping the immigrants under observation in the barracks for a period of ten days, is in order to be able to re-embark those who prove to be infected with disease, and after the expiration of this period, to set at liberty those who are in good health, as it is only after the lapse of the time in question that they are permitted to establish themselves in the Republic.\n\nXV. The Chinese immigrants who arrived in the \"Landrat Schieff\" were not expelled from Mexican Territory, but having sickened during the period of observation in barracks, they could not be permitted to establish themselves in the country, and had to be re-embarked, the same procedure being followed in their case, as has been adopted in the case of all immigrants under analogous circumstances.\n\nFrom the foregoing Report the conclusion may be drawn that the Mexican Sanitary Authorities, in their reception of the China Commercial Company's steamers \"Suisang\" and \"Landrat Schieff\" have acted in a perfectly correct manner, and in accordance with the Regulations and customs established since immigrants first commenced to enter the Republic.\n\nMexico, 4th July 1908.\n\n(Signed) \nI have &c., \nE.

This shipment was, after some delay, accepted by the Director of the Havre Customs at the minimum tariff.\n\nThe shipments now in dispute amount to a total of 4390 cases, of which 2250 cases have already arrived, as stated, by the Menelaus.

We arranged for our goods to be transhipped at Hong Kong, the transhipment taking place in the roadstead, and the certificate of the Canadian origin of the goods being vised by the French Consul at Hong Kong in the usual way.\n\nMuch to our surprise difficulties were thrown in the way of admission of these goods into Havre at the minimum rate of duty and, as you will perceive from the enclosed copy of letter received from our agent at Havre, the goods were passed at the low rate purely as an exception and it has been stated that the full duty will be applied on future arrivals.\n\nWe may point out that the Tehuantepec route to which reference is made in our agents letter, is, in our opinion, much less direct than the Hong Kong. When shipped via Tehuantepec the goods are conveyed from Vancouver to Sulinas in a Canadian steamer, across Mexico by rail to Puerto Mexico (Atlantic seaboard) whence they are conveyed to Havre by the steamers of the Hamburg-America Line that being the only line in direct communication with Havre.\n\nThe only point to our mind is as to whether the condition underlined in the last paragraph of our agents letter namely that transhipment must take place in a country to which the minimum tariff also applies, is observed in the case of transhipment at Hong Kong. We shall be obliged if you will inform us if that colony is to be regarded as \"a country to which the minimum tariff with France applies.\"\n\nThere are about 5,000 cases of canned salmon now afloat and on the way to Havre by the Hong Kong route. 2000 cases are expected to arrive about the 17th instant.

This snow-range is doubtless the last source of the Irrawady and forms the divide between it and the Zayul or Brahmaputra system, which would carry it, as the Government of India has claimed, to the point where India meets Tibet.\n\nThis then is the boundary which has been chosen by His Majesty's Government as the only one which can properly be accepted, and the expedition of 1905 found no reason to modify the line, the only Chinese claims beyond the border consisting of certain family rather than Imperial rights alleged to be held by hereditary chiefs of Lisu districts on the Chinese side, including an irregular house and timber tax collected by Tengkeng, whilst it was clearly proved that no administrative control by Chinese officers existed to the west of the great range. In the course of my recent frontier tour constant rumours reached me of Chinese activity along the undelimited frontier, and it appears that the provincial Government evinced their interest in the question by sending deputies from the capital both in 1908 and 1909 to visit the tribal chiefs and to report on general conditions on the northern border line. I gathered from these chiefs that the Chinese had recently urged them to hold themselves in readiness for any trouble which might occur, threatening the loss of their hereditary rank if they proved themselves unable to maintain a force sufficient to safeguard their frontier regions. Such tactics cannot fail to unsettle the semi-barbarous chiefs, who have learned in the experience of centuries to place entire confidence in the prestige of China, the Empire which represents to these tribesmen all of power and wealth and dignity and which has marked a slow but certain line of progress to the limits of the wild country to the extreme west of Yunnan. It can scarcely be expected that Lisu or Kachin tribesmen will have much understanding of or regard for the intangible idea of an unmarked international frontier and, so long as they are convinced of the support of the Chinese authorities, they will not hesitate to undertake adventures such as have resulted in the Sima troubles of 1890, the Hpare affair of 1900 or this last raid at the close of 1900.\n\nThere can be little doubt that the recent establishment of a modern-drilled and well-equipped army in Yunnan has stirred provincial ambitions, and that a forward and even aggressive policy may be expected along the frontier unless some check is given to the irresponsible petty officials who have little to lose and all to gain by any successful move against their little-known neighbour of Burma. Such an incident as the destruction of the British boundary pillar reported in my despatch No. 2 of the 15th February, although of little moment in itself, cannot fail to illustrate the spirit which is inclined to actuate the minor officials of the frontier districts and will be unlikely to receive a check unless pressure is brought to bear on the more responsible authorities of the province.\n\nIn these circumstances I trust that you will see your way to advocating some action which will mark a definite disapproval of the Pien-ma raid, and which will ensure such punishment for the guilty chief as will prove a warning both to him and to his neighbours that the boundary cannot be violated with impunity. If once the Chinese were able to establish themselves in the broken and isolated regions on the western slope of the Irrawady-Salween Divide, it would necessitate prolonged and difficult operations to displace them and to regain the position which has been clearly defined by His Majesty's Ministers to the Government at Peking as marking the limits of our territory and influence on India's north-eastern frontier.\n\nI have, &c.\n\nEnclosure 2 in No. 1.\n\nARCHIBALD ROSE,\n\n3\n\nNgawchang Kha. The letter purports to be a petition addressed to you from the inhabitants of five villages on the above-named stream, complaining that the headman of Tengkeng, situated on the Salween, in China, has burnt the village of Upper Hpimaw and threatens to destroy their villages. I am also to forward a copy of a letter from the commissioner of the Mandalay division, dated the 24th January, 1910, with its enclosures, on the same subject.\n\n2. It appears that a raid has been committed by the chief of Tengkeng and his followers on the village of Hpimaw and certain neighbouring villages situated on the British side of the watershed claimed as the Burma-China frontier.\n\nThe villages mentioned are all in the unadministered tract on the north-east of the Myitkyina district, which was shown in the map forwarded to you with my letter, dated the 17th September, 1908. Tengkeng is on the Chinese side of the border, and with regard to it I am to invite a reference to the report by the late Mr. G. J. L. Litton on a joint survey of the Burma-Yunnan boundary by British and Chinese officials in 1905. Tengkeng is shown on the map which formed Enclosure No. 1 of Mr. Litton's report, and the claim of the chief of Tengkeng to exercise jurisdiction over Hpimaw and the neighbouring villages on the Ngawchang stream was described on pp. 8 and 11 of that report.\n\n3. It is not known whether any of the followers of the chief of Tengkeng are still in British territory, but in any case it is not possible to take immediate and effective steps from this side to eject them. For this purpose it would be necessary to dispatch an expedition on the scale and of the nature described in my letter dated the 17th September, 1908, and the present season is now too far advanced for this to be undertaken before November 1910. In the meantime, the lieutenant-governor thinks that the raid should be immediately brought to the notice of the Chinese authorities in order that, if possible, reparation may be exacted and the raiders punished. I am accordingly to suggest that, if you see no objection, you should bring the facts to the notice of the taotai at Tengyueh, and request him to take immediate steps to procure the withdrawal from British territory of the raiders from Tengkeng, if any of them are still remaining there, to punish the chief of Tengkeng for his action, and to require the chief to compensate the inhabitants of Hpimaw and the other raided villages for the injuries inflicted on them.\n\n4. A copy of this letter has been furnished to the consul-general at Yunnan-fu, in order that he may, if he thinks fit, place the facts before the Governor-General of Yunnan and Kueichow and move him to issue the necessary instructions to the taotai at Tengyueh.\n\nI have, &c.\n\nEnclosure 3 in No. 1.\n\nW. F. RICE, Chief Secretary.\n\nMr. Carey to Government of Burma.\n\nJanuary 24, 1910.\n\nI AM very unwell at the moment with neuralgia and complications, and send this on without retaining it until I am better, as it is urgent. I do not think that we should immediately send a column to turn out the Chinese, as Hertz suggests. I think we should address Rose and attempt to procure the withdrawal of the Chinese (if they are found to be still there), in the first instance, through him.\n\nAs you know, it is late to send out columns; it is also inadvisable in the face of the policy, which is defined clearly, to send expeditions into this country. I think that we shall not prejudice our claim by trying—anyhow, for this year—to get the Chinese to withdraw through the representations of the consul.\n\nAs regards the villagers who petitioned, Hertz might be instructed to inform them that the matter is being attended to with the view of the withdrawal of the Chinese and the payment to them of such compensation for the raid as may appear to be warranted after enquiry.\n\nSir,\n\nGovernment of Burma to Acting Consul Rose.\n\nRangoon, February 7, 1910.\n\nI AM directed to forward, in original, a letter (written in Chinese on a piece of board) which was brought to the assistant superintendent at Sadon in the Myitkyina district by a Lanshi named Chawn Tang Bawm, of Luagbaug, on the Upper\n\n[2729 b-1]\n\nB 2\n\n558", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-371 - Public Offices - 1910.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 428637, "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": "CO129-371 - Public Offices - 1910", "page_number": 562, "title": "CO129-371 - Public Offices - 1910", "content_text": "Enclosure 4 in No. 1.\n\nMr. Herts to Mr. Carey.\n\nJanuary 17, 1910.\n\nPLEASE refer to my demi-official letter dated the 28th August, 1909. Wilson has sent a Lashi named Chawm Tung Bawm, of Lungbang, on the Upper Ngawchang Kha, with a letter addressed to Rose, which I am forwarding to you original under a separate registered cover. The letter is written in Chinese on a piece of board, and purports to be a petition from the inhabitants of five villages on the above-named stream, complaining that the headman of Tengkeng, situated on the Salween in China, has burnt the village of Upper (or West) Hpimaw and threatens to destroy their villages. The names in Lashi of the five villages are Hpimaw (East), Kalam (East and West), Htantung and Lamyaw. As is not usual the Chinese names of the villages are different from the local Yawyin or Lashi names.\n\nA copy of the statement made by the messenger to Mr. Wilson, which is substantially the same as he has stated to me here, is also forwarded.\n\nThe elders of the five villages are said to have met at the village of Iltumshing and there to have got two Chinese traders, Ton San Ye and Chu Laopan, to write the letter.\n\nThe burning of Hpimaw appears to have taken place more than a month ago. After the destruction of the village the headman (or chief) of Tengkeng returned to China, but his men, some hundreds of them in all, it is said, are still in Lower Hpimaw and Hpawdi. The messenger took nine days to come here.\n\nIt is evident, if the above is true (and I have no doubt that it is substantially so), that we cannot permit the Chinese to remain in occupation of the Ngawchang Valley, for if we do, we shall not be able to make good our claim to the Irrawady-Salween Divide as the boundary between the two Empires. I can see no course open to us, therefore, but to dispatch a column without delay to compel the Chinese to return to their country, and to place beyond possibility of future question that the whole of the basin of the Irrawady belongs to us.\n\nI leave it to you to communicate with Rose on the subject of this letter, if you consider it necessary to do so.\n\nThe villages of Tengkeng, Tangtung, Lungpang (Langbang) and Hpimaw are shown in the map attached to the red book on the joint survey of the Burmah-Yunnan boundary by British and Chinese officials in 1905, in which book the claim of the Tengkeng headman to the Upper Ngawchang Valley and the advantages of the above-named boundary are discussed at length. From the opinion of the British officials who took part in the joint survey that the adoption of any other frontier will be highly detrimental to the interests of Burmah, I do not think that anyone will dissent.\n\nA translation of the Chinese letter is attached.\n\nEnclosure 5 in No. 1.\n\nTranslation of Chinese letter addressed to Acting Consul Rose.\n\nTHE humble petition of the elders of villages situated on the upper waters of the Hsiao Chiang (small river, i.e., the Ngawchang Kha) addressed to the British consul at Tengyuch.\n\nAbout the 15th day of the 9th month the headman of Tengkeng, named Twanhwe, collecting a force of 300 Yawyins and 200 of his own people, came and attacked our villages, He set fire to and entirely destroyed one village which consists of houses with thatch roofs. We are in great danger and our people have been scattered by this inroad into our country. He has also killed all our domestic animals such as pigs, fowls, and dogs, and taken our provisions. We therefore petition to your Honour to pity us, and to restore peace and order in our unhappy valley. Our villages lie within British territory and we humbly request that you will be kind enough to pay them a visit. We do not know why the Tengkeng headman is oppressing us by raiding our villages. We have no intercourse with his villages nor is there any feud between us. Our territory lies within the Kaoliang Pass Pillar and is watered by the Hsiao Chiang (Ngawchang Kha). We are unable to resist his attacks, so we petition your Honour to be kind enough to visit our country, which is in a very disturbed state, and to help us.\n\nThe headman in question is also said to have threatened the people living on the other side of the river (Ngawchang Kha). Our country does not belong to him, so we request you to come to us.\n\nWe are the elders and villagers of Tumaw, Kwankwan, Shanglaw, Kachi, and Shijang.\n\nDated the 1st year, 10th month, 26th day of the reign of Sein Ton.\n\nEnclosure 6 in No. 1.\n\nStatement made to Mr. Wilson, Assistant Superintendent, Sadon, by Chawm Tung Baum, of Lungbang.\n\nLABAU NU, Duwa of Lajawng, has brought in a Lashi named Chawm Tung Bawm, of Lungbang, a village near Hpimaw, to the British consul at Tengyuch. I have questioned Labau Nu and Chawm Tung Bawn carefully, and they furnish the following information:\n\n\"As the Lashis of Hpimaw and some fourteen or fifteen villages have not paid tribute for the last three or four years the Tengkeng fuyi about two months ago got together 500 men (Chinese, Black Lisu, Maru, and Lashi) and threatened to burn down the villages which refused to pay tribute. The Lashis on our side of the frontier got information of the fuyi's intentions from their friends and relations who live on the Chinese side, and some fifty or sixty of them, armed with guns and bows and arrows, awaited the approach of the fuyi and his following. A fight took place on the frontier and the Hpimaw men and their friends are said to have killed seven of the fuyi's men, and to have wounded a few more. The Hpimaw men had no casualties, but, as they were outnumbered, they retreated, and the fuyi and his men then sacked and burnt Upper Hpimaw.\n\n\"The fuyi is said to have stationed at the present time 300 men at Lower Hpimaw and 200 at the Lisu village of Hpawte. The detachment at Hpimaw is composed of transfrontier Chinese, Black Lisus, Marus, and Lashis, and the men are quartered in four or five Chinese houses which are built of sun-dried bricks. The men who are stationed at Hpawte are mostly from the Chinese side, but several Black Lisus who belong to Hpawte took part in the sacking and burning of Upper Hpimaw.\n\n\"No Chinese soldiers or men from the frontier levy are said to have been engaged, and the fuyi's followers are armed with cap-guns, flint-locks, and Kachin check guns.\"\n\nThe following information obtained from the messenger may also be of interest:\n\n\"There is a tree which grows on both banks of the Ngawchang Kha, the timber of which is much prized by the Chinese for making coffins. The Chingpaw name for the tree is 'shau hipun,' the Lashi name 'shau sik,' and the Chinese name 'sha mu.' The Tengkeng fuyi formerly levied a tax of 1 rupee to 1 rupee 8a. on every four planks extracted from the forests near Hpimaw, but during the last three years he has taken two planks out of every four in lieu of the money tax. Two well-to-do Chinese traders, named Chu Lauban, of Mingkuang, and Ton Sanye, of Kutung Pa, who deal largely in these planks, are said to have complained to the Chinese official at Yung-chang Fu about the Tengkeng fuyi's conduct. They were informed that Hpimaw was in the British sphere of influence, and were referred to the Tengyuch ting, who is said to have warned the Tengkeng fuyi to discontinue levying taxes, as Hpimaw was not in Chinese territory.\n\n\"Some three years ago a Yawyin (Black Lisu) discovered a couple of salt springs near two streams which flow into the Ngawchang Kha. He took samples from each spring to the Tengkeng fuyi, who boiled them down, and found that one produced excellent salt, while the other produced inferior stuff. The fuyi is said thereupon to have declared that both springs are in his jurisdiction, and to have prohibited their being worked without his permission.\n\n\"The writer of this letter is Ton Sanye, one of the Chinese traders referred to.”\n\nPage 559", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-371 - Public Offices - 1910.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 428897, "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": "CO129-372 - Public Offices - 1910", "page_number": 238, "title": "CO129-372 - Public Offices - 1910", "content_text": "4.

E. O'BRIEN-BUTLER.\n\nMr. Shih to Consul-General O'Brien-Butler.\n\nYunnan-fu, April 24, 1910. THE Administrator of Foreign Affairs makes the following communication in reply to the British consul-general:——\n\nThe administrator has received the consul-general's despatch of the 18th April, in which he states that he has sent copies of the administrator's despatch on the subject of the raid made by the Chief of Teng Keng on the village of Pienma to His Majesty's Legation at Peking and to the Government of Burmah, and that the petition sent by the villagers was not written by themselves, who regarded themselves as British subjects living on British territory, which fact is expressed under five items.\n\nThe frontier between Yunnan and Burmah north of the high conical peak has not been determined yet. According to the boundaries within which both nations now exercise jurisdiction, Pienma was formerly under the magistrate of Yunlung Chou in Talifu, and afterwards was transferred to the jurisdiction of the magistrate of Paoshan Hsien in Yungchang-fu, and the village is now under the control of the Chief of Teng Keng; and as the records of taxes collected by the Government and paid by the village can be referred to, it is a matter of fact beyond all doubt that the villagers are Yünnan people living in the province of Yunnan. The true facts were stated fully in the administrator's despatch of the 2nd instant (11th April). The consul-general, knowing well enough that the question about the frontier has not been settled, made no statement different from that of the administrator. However, he has argued much with regard to the fact of the villagers making the mistake in sending the petition. This the administrator cannot agree with. If this false petition could be considered as proof that the village is in British territory, it will be probable that when Burmese should be induced by some person to write a false petition, and to address it to some Chinese authority, the fact can also be taken as proof that they are Chinese subjects living in Chinese territory. This is, of course, contrary to reason, and therefore the petition, without proof being obviously deceptive, is of no importance. Though the petition was not rejected by the Burmese officials, yet it is regarded by the administrator as one which will produce no effect. As the consul-general made his statements under different items, the administrator will express his ideas as fully as he has done, with the earnest hope that the matter may be made certain, and no one will be deceived by it.\n\n1. Pienma and other villages are on the east of the Hsiaochiang River, and the inhabitants are assuredly Yünnanese living in the province of Yunnan. As to their language being different from that spoken by the people in the interior, the administrator knows this already.\n\n2. The villagers, being instigated by a certain bad person, acted against their superior, the Chief of Teng Keng, and getting that person to draw up the false petition, brought charges against the chief, and purposely made the mistake of addressing it in a wrong way. Since the petition was written for them, the words used must agree with their thoughts and not with the writer's. Though the villagers are ignorant and simple, the writer must not be so.\n\n3. They knew that they were under the Chief of Teng Keng, and had long submitted to his rule. If on being misled and making false charges, they addressed their petition to Chinese officials, they would be punished for the crime of quarrelling with their chief. They knew this very well, and so would not throw themselves into a net, even if they were very ignorant. The administrator fears that it is not in accordance with reason that the consul-general considers the fact of the petition being addressed to a British official as proof that the petitioners regarded themselves as British subjects living on British territory, and he cannot assent to it.\n\nThey were all silly, and so let themselves be misled. As the petition was dated in the Chinese style, the person writing it must also be a Chinese subject. He dared not address the petition to Chinese officials, and, besides Chinese officials, he only knew of the existence of the consul at Tengyueh.\n\n5. As they were not British subjects living on British territory, they did not know the different classes of British officials, and yet British officials have insisted that they are British subjects without any proof except the false petition which is rarely nothing, even without the administrator expressly stating this fact. In the petition, there is the expression \"Ling Shih Ta Jen\" (his Honour the consul), but it was sent to the Burmese local official at Sadon, and not to the person addressed in it; it is evident that the petitioners made this mistake on purpose.\n\nIn short, the inhabitants of Pienma and the other villages are Yunnanese living in the Province of Yunnan, according to the boundaries within which both nations now exercise jurisdiction, and there is plenty of trustworthy proof of this. If the consul-general takes this petition as proof to the contrary, the administrator is determined not to admit it.\n\nAs the consul-general has sent copies of the administrator's despatch to His Majesty's Legation at Peking and to the Government of Burmah, he must also report to the Viceroy, and request him to inform the Board of Foreign Affairs at Peking.\n\nIt is the administrator's duty to write this in reply to the consul-general, trusting he will take note.\n\nPage 236", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-372 - Public Offices - 1910.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 429090, "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": "CO129-372 - Public Offices - 1910", "page_number": 431, "title": "CO129-372 - Public Offices - 1910", "content_text": "4.

Such forces would be poorly armed and badly organised, and they would have little eagerness for action.\n\n3. Under the third head the nearest troops to the frontier would be 200 men of the 11th Ying, who are stationed at Kuyung Kai. These men all carry Mauser magazine rifles (nine cartridges), which are in good order, and they are the best of the Tengyuch brigade. Their commandant, Major Ma, is an intelligent Mahommedan, and his men show better discipline and better spirit than is usual with the Chinese forces. The ying includes a number of Kachins (Chashans) from Sansi, who speak a dialect almost identical with that of the Pienma Lashis. The 4th and 5th Ying are stationed at Tengyuch, and comprise together about 500 men, chiefly armed with single-loading Mausers, which are antiquated and in poor condition. They are led by Chinese officers of the old school, and have had no Japanese training, though they show a marked improvement on the troops of a few years ago both in physique and discipline. I had an opportunity a few days ago of witnessing their target practice, and they showed an invariable tendency to shoot low, though I have seen men of the 11th Ying showing excellent marksmanship. Colonel Chiang, one of the officers stationed at Tengyuch, is a man of undoubted energy and courage, reputed a tribesman by birth, and showing a forceful personality which is entirely un-Chinese.\n\n4. There are 1,500 troops at Talifu, and I have information that many of their officers are in reality Japanese, though they speak Chinese fluently, and the greatest secrecy is observed in regard to their nationality. They would be able to reach Hpimaw through Yun-lung Chou, crossing the Mekong by the Feilung Bridge and the Salween by the ferry below Tengkeng. It is probable that they could reach Hpimaw in about the same time as troops from Myitkyina, but I have been unable to gather any reliable information as to their transport and commissariat. Large numbers of mules are, however, constantly available at Talifu, the roads are fair, and local supplies would be obtainable until they crossed the watershed. A detailed account of these troops is given in my despatch of the 3rd March last (printed report, p. 18).\n\nI am of opinion that the Chinese would be unlikely to move up regular troops either under heads (3) or (4) to the unadministered territory, and think that the only probable resistance would come from the Lisu irregulars reported under head (2).\n\nLines of Advance.\n\nThere are eight possible lines of advance for the Chinese into the unadministered territory. From west to east they are as follows:--\n\n1. From Ku-yung Kai by San Cha-ho, across the watershed near Manung Pum, and into the Shingaw Valley,\n\n2. From Tan-tsa, across the Lang Ya Pass, into the Tummaw Valley.\n\n3. From the Tien-tang Valley by Malipa, across the Pan-wa Pass, to Chang Yin-kou on the Chipway River. Malipa is 8 miles to the south and Chang Yin-kou 6 miles to the north of the pass. This is probably the easiest route from China, Tien-tang being cultivated up to the head of the valley.\n\n4. Along the Mingkuang Valley, striking off at Ta-chai, then up the Cha Shan Ho to Ta Ya-kou Pass-12 miles from Ta-chai. This leads to Hparé, which is 9 miles beyond the pass. This is also a comparatively easy track, and, with No. 3, would probably be open for lightly-laden mules throughout the dry season. Supplies would be abundant right up to the watershed. Lisu porters are generally available throughout this district, and can carry from 60 to 70 lbs. in the baskets on their backs. They are most satisfactory in this capacity, uncomplaining in spite of hard marches and heavy weather, requiring no bedding, as fast as mules, and unfailingly cheerful.\n\n5. Also from Mingkuang. About 5 miles north of Ta-chai, the Hsiao-tang Ho Valley leads off from the main valley to the north-west; the track follows the river and crosses the pass at 10 miles from the Mingkuang Valley, then leads down to Lagwé (Tzu-chu), which is 12 miles to the north of the pass.\n\n6. From Mingkuang, at Ta-chu-pa, across Fen Shui Ling Pass, to Hpimaw, 28 miles. This is the track I followed, but it is regarded as the most difficult, and mules should not be taken unless weather conditions are most favourable; they would then need to be very lightly laden, and an advance guard would be necessary to clear the track. Three days' journey, the second very hard, as animals cannot stop all day, owing to the poisonous herbs in the jungle.\n\n7. From the Salween Valley, at Tengkeng, westwards up the Ku-tan Ho Valley, across the pass to Hpimaw; one and a-half days' journey. Difficult track, but open for lightly-laden mules in favourable weather conditions; path very steep and narrow, and difficult streams to cross. The Tengkeng levies would come from this direction, also any troops from Talifu or Yungchang.\n\n8. From the Salween, at Chengka (latitude 26° 15'), by Pai-pa, into the north of territory. This route is little known, and is not likely to be used.\n\nOf the above eight routes, 3, 4, and 7 are those which would in all probability be chosen in the event of any expeditions from the Chinese side. They could all be watched without difficulty, and the main party in the unadministered territory could be kept constantly in touch with news from the passes. This could be arranged from the Burmah side of the watershed more easily than from Tengyueh, as it would be difficult to obtain reliable men among the Chinese, whereas the Kachins proved themselves during my recent visit to be both eager and quick at gathering and carrying news. I could arrange for trustworthy information from Talifu and Tengyueh in regard to movements of troops, and possibly also from Ku-yung Kai, but it would be preferable, whenever possible, to use men for intelligence work whose homes are in Burmah, and who would be able to get through to Sima or Sadon in the event of any difficulty with the Tengyueh-Bhamo telegraph line.\n\nARCHIBALD ROSE,\n\nHis Majesty's Acting Consul.\n\nTengyueh, May 24, 1910.\n\n473", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-372 - Public Offices - 1910.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 429578, "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": "CO129-373 - Public Offices - 1910", "page_number": 315, "title": "CO129-373 - Public Offices - 1910", "content_text": "HONG KONG EASTERN\n\n34442\n\nCO 34472\n\nRECO\n\nREG 10 NOV 10\n\nForeign Office\n\n1910\n\n9th Nov\n\nLast previous Paper.\n\nA 2\n\n2\n\nOpium\n\nSirits of cores\n\n314\n\nStents to Conf 34 Na\n\n(16,835).

To make our force too strong to invite attack is the best means of averting hostilities.\n\n\"Following modification of arrangements described in my letter dated the 10th May is proposed by Lieutenant-Governor. We may abandon expedition to Hkampti proposed in my letter of the 27th August, and may add to Hertz's escort the 125 rifles of Barnard's escort. A total military police escort of 575 rifles and 32 signallers will thus be given to Hertz. One hundred men will be left by Hertz as rationing base at Makawng, and he will be accompanied to Pien-ma by the remaining 475 rifles as escort. Hertz will thus be enabled, if attacked by strong force, to occupy defensive position and await relief. Lieutenant-Governor recommends, as an additional precaution, stationing one battalion of native infantry (Gurkhas for preference), half at Seniku and half at Myitkyina, transport being provided for the half battalion at Seniku, who would be kept in readiness, if required, to follow and relieve Hertz. Military authorities have already been moved by Lieutenant-Governor to post, during absence of military police, half a battalion of native infantry to garrison Myitkyina. A whole battalion is now suggested by his honour. Chinese will doubtless be impressed by movement of regular troops to Seniku and Myitkyina. Until country has been inspected by Hertz it is not possible to decide location of police post which was mentioned in your telegram dated the 23rd ultimo. One post will probably be established near Htaw-gaw consisting of 175 rifles, with a small connecting post at Chinese attitude in Makawng of 50 rifles. Hertz's escort will supply the men. regard to operations of Hertz will govern question whether these posts will remain out or be withdrawn during the rains. If there is no interference on part of Chinese it is proposed when the rains begin to withdraw both posts, and next open season to send them out again. One civil officer and two British officers of military police should stay at Htaw-gaw with the post. Four hundred and seventy-five rounds of ammunition per rifle should be supplied to the men of the post. Escort should for this purpose, in addition to 200 rounds for practice before starting, be supplied with 700 rounds per rifle. It is, therefore, recommended by Lieutenant-Governor that, in addition to ammunition already supplied, 500 rounds per rifle for 607 men should now be supplied. Approval is solicited to these revised proposals, the object of which is to avert hostilities as well as to ensure safety of Hertz's escort. As soon as Pritchard's report is available proposals will be repeated by letter. Consul at Tengyueh has been requested that any indications of intentions of Chinese may be brought to our knowledge.\"\n\n2. Dated the 7th instant :-\n\n\"Unadministered tract on north-east frontier. See my telegram of yesterday. Assistant Superintendent, Sadon, has received following information:-\n\n\"About a month ago Hparé was visited by Chinese official with seven followers. He descended the valley (P) of the Chipwi from Hparé and presented Kachin, headmen of Lang-jaw, Makawng and Tsitsaw with Chinese official caps and tokens. Chinese official informed these chiefs, who said that they were British subjects, that they were subjects of China. Official then returned via Lang-jaw and Ma-li-pa to China. Another indication is thus afforded that, unless we forestall them by sending expedition this year, this tract will be effectively occupied and administered by Chinese.\"\n\nIt is important, in my opinion, that both expeditions should be carried out during present season, and I do not consider that any alteration of present plans is justified by information now furnished. Military authorities share this view, and consider that to overcome any probable opposition, strength proposed originally should be sufficient. It is proposed to issue orders accordingly, subject to your approval. Movement of troops proposed by Government of Burmah in support to the base from which the two columns act will be advisable as a precautionary measure.\n\nPage 339\n\nCHINA RAILWAYS.\n\nCONFIDENTIAL.\n\n[36170]\n\nNo. 1.\n\n[October 17.]\n\nSECTION\n\n34588\n\nRECR Foreign Office to Colonial Office.\n\nREGE 11 NOV TO\n\nSir,\n\nForeign Office, October 17, 1910.\n\nI AM directed by Secretary Sir E. Grey to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 6th instant, respecting the proposed railway and customs agreements between China and Hong Kong.\n\nSir E. Grey notes that Sir John Jordan and Sir Frederick Lugard agreed, at the informal conference held on the 2nd instant, that while in the question of the agreement as to the Canton-Kowloon Railway the principle of joint management of the two sections of the railway should be pressed upon the Chinese Government, it would be a mistake to offer as a counter-advantage to the Chinese the proposed customs agreement, and that the Earl of Crewe has consequently informed the Acting Governor of Hong Kong that the question of the customs agreement must not for the present be brought into the railway negotiations.\n\nWith regard to paragraph 5 of your letter under reply, I am to state that Sir E. Grey concurs in the view that the negotiations for the conclusion of the customs agreement should be conducted locally, and that for the purpose the commissioner of the Chinese Imperial Maritime Customs should be deputed to confer with a representative of the Hong Kong Government.

A number of murder cases await trial and discussion, but the lists of ordinary claims are smaller than usual owing to the efficiency and activity of the frontier deputy Chao, who has done excellent work during the summer months. Apart from the Tengkeng-Hpimaw affair, there have been no serious frontier raids.\n\nTampering with Frontier Pillars.--It will be remembered that the Chinese have constantly pressed for the removal of certain of our frontier pillars, alleging that they are wrongly placed and that the frontier should run farther west. They have been informed that His Majesty's Government is unable to enter into any discussion of this question so long after the delimitation of the frontier and the erection of the pillars.\n\nEarly in the autumn, the taotai sent a party to the northern frontier with instructions to destroy pillar No. 38, situated near the extreme north of the delimited boundary, at the top of the Shingaw Valley and immediately south of Manang Pum. The deputies entrusted with the task begged the taotai to put his instructions in writing, doubtless remembering the fate of Mr. Peng, the Yungchang prefect, who was dismissed from office for undue zeal in destroying the pillar in Lungchuan. The taotai refused to record his responsibilities in this way, however, and sent the deputies on their business. The Government of Burmah has since received a report that the pillar was defaced by the party. When the deputies returned to Tengyueh, they presented separate reports; one said that the frontier was wrongly demarcated, that he had been anxious to destroy the pillar in accordance with instructions, but that his colleague had resisted such extreme measures. The taotai was greatly enraged and immediately dismissed the protesting deputy from office. The unfortunate man tells me that they did not actually deface the pillar, and that they merely took a rubbing of the inscription. I am unable, however, to vouch for the accuracy of his statement.\n\nI fear that the Government of Burmah had some misgivings in regard to my attitude towards the destruction of the Lungchuan pillar in the spring, believing that I took too serious a view of a trifling incident. I adhere, however, to my original opinion that it is not safe to allow the least latitude to the Chinese in such a question, and I am convinced that we should have had serious trouble in regard to a number of the pillars during the past year if Mr. Peng's action had been allowed to pass without a serious protest. The subordinate officers on the Chinese side of the frontier unfortunately know that they are sure of support from the higher authorities in any act of aggression which does not bring down a prompt and vigorous rebuff from their Burmah neighbour, and I submit that the greatest watchfulness will be required along the frontier in the near future if we desire to avoid serious trouble and annoyance in connection with the already delimited sections.\n\nUndelimited Frontier.--The imprisonment of my former interpreter has so frightened the people that my sources of information in the direction of the undelimited frontier have now failed. I have certain information, however, that the Chinese propose to continue their administrative work during the coming open season, unless they are forestalled from the direction of Burmah. The officers who were concerned in the expeditions during last spring have all received promotion. The taotai proposed to visit Tengkeng in person this autumn, but his impulsive activity has received several shocks during the last few months, and it is now believed that he will abandon the project of a personal visit to the disputed area.\n\nBurmah Frontier Forts.--I have been obliged to call the attention of the taotai to the fact that the Burmah military posts at Kut-kai, Pankham, Lweje, Laokham, Warapum, Nampang, Alawbum, Šima, Sadon, and Loingu in no way infringe our treaty obligations, and that their erection was provided for by the Burmah Convention of 1894 (article 7) and by clause 2 of the Manni Agreement of 1902.\n\n## Commercial\n\nBhamo-Tengyueh Road.--The most important factor in the commercial situation has been the successful work on the trade-route, which has enabled traffic to proceed during the whole of the summer season in spite of a record rainfall. It will be remembered that for many years our trans-frontier trade has followed a natural mule-track, which becomes so bad in the rains that there is a constant loss of life both to men and animals. A road was made for a third of the distance between Tengyueh and the frontier during the last open season, and a gang of maintenance men has been employed throughout the summer. The reserve fund of the road committee, however, is exhausted, and our income derived from the mule tax is insufficient to carry on the work. I am exceedingly anxious to push forward the road construction during the coming season, in the hope of bringing the road right up to Tengyueh, even if it be but roughly constructed. Mr. Carey, the present commissioner of customs, has given me loyal support in this matter in dealing with our Chinese colleagues, and I feel that the best interests of our trans-frontier trade will be served by laying the foundations of a road whilst conditions are thus favourable. We have approached the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank with a proposal for a loan of about 2,000l., to be guaranteed by the mule tax, but the taotai and the ting do not at all like the idea of a loan and the responsibility attaching to it. I have suggested the abolition of the \"pao shang ying,\" or trade protection levy, which has swallowed up 9,000 taels a-year for the past eight years without any corresponding advantage. I still await the sanction of the Government of Burmah before pressing this unwelcome proposal on the taotai and sub-prefect--who divide most of the funds in their private interest--and I trust that they will support my efforts to ensure the completion of the work on the trade-route. The mule tax now amounts to nearly 50 per cent. of the total customs collection here, and I feel that the time has come to stop the present leakages, to get a road through as soon as possible, and then to remove or to substantially reduce this tax, which is an undue burden on the trans-frontier trade.\n\nImports.--It is interesting to notice that the first three-quarters of the year show an entry of 20,492 piculs of cotton yarn--our main import--as compared with 16,199 piculs during the same period of 1909. The merchants showed much anxiety at the beginning of the year lest this trade should be deflected from the Tengyueh route by the Tonquin-Yunnan-fu Railway. The fact remains, however, that they can still import at a profit, and can actually lay down yarn as far as Yunnan-fu itself at prices which will compete with railway-borne yarn. I can scarcely think that the French railway authorities will allow such an anomaly to continue for long, and it seems only reasonable to suppose that they will eventually lower their rates sufficiently to make the mule rates for thirty-two days' transport from Bhamo to Yunnan-fu prohibitive. In the meanwhile, however, the Tengyueh route holds its own, and, as population is greatly on the increase in Western Yünnan, there seems every prospect that the projected railway from Bhamo will have no difficulty in paying its way.\n\nDrawback Privileges.--Most of the imports into Yunnan coming by the Burmah route are taxed by the customs at Rangoon, but are granted drawbacks of seven-eighths of their import duty when they leave for China. Since the enforcement of the new Indian tariff, however, cigarettes have been withdrawn from the privileged list, with the result that this flourishing trade has dropped entirely from the Burmah route and the markets of Western Yunnan are supplied entirely from Tonquin. American kerosene also obtains no drawback; the import figures for this article show a return of 22,080 gallons as compared with 13,000 for 1909, and there is no doubt that there would be a great opening for this article if the same favourable treatment were accorded by Burmah as by Tonquin. I have represented these facts to the Government of Burmah, and I trust that the Indian Government will see its way to removing present disabilities, as it is of importance that the carrying trade on the Burmah-Yunnan trade-route should receive every encouragement in view of the new competition from the Tonquin railway, and the possibility of a railway from Burmah in the future.\n\nExports: Silk.--A great stimulus has been given to the export trade by the demand for Szechuan silk in Europe. Merchants find that it pays them to send \"huang ssu\" (raw yellow silk), and \"kai-chuang ssu\" (silk specially reeled for the European market), from Szechuan by the Tengyueh route rather than by the Yang-tsze and Shanghai, not entirely because the freights are lower, but because any export cargo assists their exchange business if their produce can be laid down in Rangoon without actual loss. This is an important factor.\n\nTransport Passes.--We find also that it costs 40 taels a picul to cover the li-kin and other native taxes between the producing centres in Szechuan, whereas a transit pass will cover the same amount for the same distance for 2.10 taels. The commissioner of customs therefore issued the first native transit pass ever granted in Tengyueh during last month. The taotai offered the most vigorous resistance, and even tried to find an excuse for imprisoning the bold merchant who thus endeavoured to avoid his duties to the local authorities. The taotai claimed that transit passes were privileges not open to native merchants, but the commissioner pointed out the error of this view.\n\n## 0\n\n## [1810 k―2] \n\n## 0", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-382 - Public Offices - 1911.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 434266, "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": "CO129-382 - Public Offices - 1911", "page_number": 267, "title": "CO129-382 - Public Offices - 1911", "content_text": "## 3 TEB || No. 1.\n\n**India Office to Foreign Office.-(Received December 31.)**\n\nIndia Office, December 30, 1910.\n\nWITH reference to my letter of the 8th December, regarding certain boundary pillars on the Burmal-China frontier, I am directed by the Secretary of State for India to forward, for the information of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, copy of correspondence received from India reporting damage done by the Chinese authorities to a boundary pillar to the south of Manang Bum.\n\nManang Bum is the northernmost point to which the frontier has been delimited, and it will be seen from previous correspondence that between that point and the Namting River the Chinese authorities have during the last year disputed the accuracy of eleven boundary pillars, destroyed one, and defaced another. I am to suggest that His Majesty's Minister at Peking should take a suitable opportunity of adding to his former representations to the Chinese Government a remonstrance in respect of the last case, which illustrates the futility of their demand for a joint delimitation of the frontier north of Manang Bum, since they themselves display such flagrant contempt for the results of joint delimitation south of it.\n\nI have, &c.\n\nR. RITCHIE.\n\n### Enclosure 1 in No. 1.\n\n**Government of Burmah to Government of India.**\n\n(Confidential.)\n\nMaymyo, October 28, 1910.\n\nI AM desired to invite a reference to Mr. Rose's letter of the 1st October, 1910, which formed Enclosure 4 of my demi-official letter to you, dated the 17th October, 1910, relating to the Burmah-China frontier.\n\n2\\. A telegram has been received from the assistant superintendent at Sadon, in the Myitkyina district, to the effect that a Kachin headman has reported to him that a Chinese official from Tengyueh, accompanied by ten Chinese and four Yawyins, visited Pangsengkyet recently, and destroyed the number on boundary pillar No. 38 at the top of the Shingaw Valley. Pangsengkyet is on the delimited frontier south of Manang Bum, and is shown on sheet No. 1 of the survey sheets relating to the northern party, Burmah-China Boundary Commission. It is not clear why the Chinese should have thought fit to interfere with this pillar, and we have enquired from Mr. Rose whether he can give us any information on the subject. It seems possible that the Chinese official was one of the deputies referred to in Mr. Rose's letter of the 1st October above mentioned.\n\n3\\. The assistant superintendent at Sadon has been instructed to make further enquiry, and to ascertain, if possible, whether only the number on the pillar was erased, or whether the pillar itself was demolished or removed.\n\n(Confidential.)\n\n### Enclosure 2 in No. 1.\n\n**Government of Burmah to Government of India.**\n\nMaymyo, November 23, 1910.\n\nI AM desired to invite a reference to my demi-official letter, dated the 28th October, 1910, relating to the reported destruction of the number on a boundary pillar on the Burmah-China frontier.\n\n2\\. I am now to enclose, for the information of the Government of India, a copy of a letter, dated the 21st November, 1910, received from the commissioner, Mandalay division, in which it is reported that the number has been destroyed and the top of the pillar damaged.\n\n[This Document is the Property of His Britannic Majesty's Government.]\n\n2\n\naméricain (insistance qui est actuellement l'un des principaux obstacles à la conclusion de l'emprunt de 250 millions), a dû certainement être porté à la connaissance du Gouvernement anglais par son Ministre en Chine. Le Président Taft, dans son message au Congrès du 5 décembre, a, du reste, fait état d'une promesse de la Chine à cet égard. \"Or, un pareil avantage ne saurait se concilier avec les principes d'égalité absolue convenus entre les groupes anglais, français, allemand, et américain pour les emprunts chinois.\n\nLa distinction suggérée entre l'engagement d'un conseiller financier, ou la nomination d'un simple contrôleur des fonds de l'emprunt, ne semble constituer qu'une différence apparente : car l'emprunt doit être affecté en partie à la réforme monétaire (dont il constitue l'amorce), réforme qui engage la réorganisation financière de la Chine, et la personnalité proposée est celle de Mr. Jenks, autour du projet de 1905 sur l'étalon monétaire d'or en Chine. L'importance de la question résulte à la fois de la situation politique et financière inquiétante de l'Empire, qui ne permet pas d'écarter l'hypothèse d'un contrôle futur des finances exercé par les prêteurs ; la nomination du premier contrôleur a donc une portée considérable.\n\nLes Gouvernements européens, donneurs ou garants des emprunts chinois, ne sauraient se désintéresser de la question, au bénéfice des Américains, qui n'ont pas prêté d'argent dans le passé à la Chine et ne paraissent guère plus disposés à le faire aujourd'hui — ce n'est pas un titre à nos yeux d'avoir sollicité des emprunts sans garantie en troublant l'action réfléchie de l'Europe, et l'on ne peut les considérer comme spécialement qualifiés pour contrôler l'argent occidental. La Russie, de son côté, n'a pas manqué de faire à Pékin et Washington cette remarque, en arguant de ses intérêts dans les emprunts antérieurs, et de sa qualité de garante de l'emprunt de 1895. La résistance de la Chine à la demande américaine est une preuve de plus de l'importance de celle-ci, et laissera d'ailleurs, sans doute, aux considérations qui précèdent un caractère théorique.\n\nQuant à l'application d'une partie des fonds de l'emprunt à la Mandchourie, projet qui a soulevé en Russie et au Japon des suspicions légitimes, elle ne paraît pas avoir fait l'objet d'un examen détaillé ni d'un programme arrêté de la part des Chinois et des Américains. Des renseignements que possède mon département, il résulte toutefois que les 50 ou 100 millions qui devaient être affectés à la Mandchourie auraient été vraisemblablement employés à la création d'une banque agricole, au développement des industries locales chinoises, et à des travaux dans le port de Kintchéou.\n\nSans revenir sur les considérations exposées dans les notes verbales adressées en novembre et décembre à l'Ambassade d'Angleterre, M. Pichon souhaite d'apprendre que Sir Edward Grey partage son sentiment sur les inconvénients de tout emprunt chinois conclu en dehors des garanties convenues entre les groupes anglais, français, et allemand.\n\nParis, le 24 décembre, 1910.\n\n**AFFAIRS OF CHINA, CONFIDENTIAL.**\n\n[47134]\n\n{ \n3447 \n[December 31.] \nSECTION 1. \n100 \n\nPage 2\nPage 3", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-382 - Public Offices - 1911.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 434754, "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": "CO129-383 - Public Offices - 1911", "page_number": 168, "title": "CO129-383 - Public Offices - 1911", "content_text": "# SKETCH MAP \nto show \n## SUGGESTED LINES OF DEMARCATION \nof the \n### BURMA-CHINA BORDER.\n\nT IBET \n28°N \n\nBrahmakund \nLobit R \n15220' \nSati \nWalung \nRima \nShirong \n“Nam Kiu“ Mts \n2 \nDaphapan \nR.. \nDapha Bum \n-227° \n26 \nDihing R. \nHukong Valley \nManse \nH \na \nx \nPatau \nTalo R \n.

I propose now to deal with the several points referred to in it.\n\n(i). I do not think the point is well taken, because the word \"hereafter\" in s. 4(i) of No. 50 of 1911 expressly relates only to its use \"having relation to the time from which the provisions of any section shall take effect\". But the word in the phrase \"in all editions of the Laws of Hongkong hereafter to be printed\" have no such relation, but only refer to a fact happening or which may happen in the future. But as the point has been taken it shows that the use of the word in another sense is unfortunate. But the suggestion of the Secretary of State has directed my attention to another important and kindred question. In some Ordinances, there is an express reference to something which may happen \"after the commencement of this Ordinance\". It is sufficient to notice one case out of several, the Companies Ordinance, which refers to companies registered after the commencement of the Ordinance, and here I am bound to say that the point I have taken above does not so clearly appear, and there is certainly a strong objection to the repeal in s. 4(1) of No. 50 of 1911, in view of the necessity of retaining this form of words in these Ordinances. The English language does not apparently allow me to do what I want to do, therefore after consultation with the Attorney-General, we have come to the conclusion that the only way out of the difficulty is to delete from s. 4(i) the words \"from\" \"or hereafter\" to the end. This will leave only the first two lines, which, as it is impossible now to use the form \"or other words of like meaning\" must be recast thus in order to deal with all varieties of expression:-", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-389 - Governor Sir Lugard Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1912 [3-4].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 437734, "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": "CO129-389 - Governor Sir Lugard Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1912 [3-4]", "page_number": 390, "title": "CO129-389 - Governor Sir Lugard Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1912 [3-4]", "content_text": ". sumofon \n\nTo giouslost and to moonsɔdded and \n\nJ TOWRIUS Hİ QMÓNCTO UNİ \n\nCù aðtalinude picas,gue del promet, .Jado dorsqueï ni babuioni \n\nsalon) molvivent latone?\" and IIVI to da .of oomsnitt) \n\n鼍 \n\nJío Bididos Waktu.8.

This frontier, I am to explain, forms the eastern boundary of the Kachin hill tracts of the Myitkyina and Bhamo districts, which are under direct administration, and the northern and north-eastern boundaries of the Northern and Southern Shan States, which are administered by the Sawbwas or native chiefs, or, as in the case of the Wa States, are beyond the pale of administration. I am to say that Sir Harvey Adamson is not disposed to endorse the opinion of the Acting Lieutenant-Governor, Sir George Shaw, expressed in the fourth paragraph of my letter above quoted, that the charges brought against this Government by the Wai-chiao Pu are true. Reports have now been received from the deputy commissioners of the two districts, and from the superintendents, Northern and Southern Shan States, and the following remarks are based on the information contained therein.\n\n### \n\n2. In their despatch of the 14th January, 1913, to His Majesty's Minister at Peking the Wai-chiao Pu cites a statement of the Yünnan Tutu \"that preventive measures have been carried on in Yünnan with the greatest strictness, the cultivation, smoking, and traffic in the drug are all being successfully suppressed; the interior is being gradually cleared, and there is every prospect of the final suppression of the drug. In the district of the tribal chiefs, which lie to the south and west along the boundaries of Burma and Tonkin, no pains have been spared on the Chinese side in rooting up the poppy again and again.\" Sir John Jordan disputes this statement in his reply of the 22nd January, 1913. He reminds the Wai-chiao Pu of a memorandum sent to them on the 18th July, 1912, embodying the contents of a despatch from His Majesty's consul-general at Yünnan-fu, stating that the latest opium crop in the province of Yunnan averaged about 80 per cent. of that obtained before the cultivation of the drug was prohibited, and that large stretches of poppy cultivation were visible during the season from the walls of Yunnan-fu itself; he cites a report of the 6th December, 1912, from a missionary, to the effect that more land had been given over to the drug than had been the case for many years past, and he concludes by characterising the statement of the Tutu as a very gross misrepresentation of the opium conditions of Yunnan. Sir John Jordan's scepticism is justified by the latest reports of the superintendents of the Northern and Southern Shan States. The latter officer writes: \"So far as is known the Chinese authorities have prohibited the cultivation of the poppy in Mong Mong, in North and South Mong Ngim, and in the neighbourhood of Ho-lwe in the extreme north of Mong Lem. In the rest of Mong Lem State and throughout the Hsip Hsaeng Panna (that is, all along the Kengtung border) the poppy is grown freely\"; and he adds that the market rates for the drug prevailing in these States are too low to attract imports from the adjoining Shan State of Kengtung. The superintendent, Northern Shan States, writes: \"Up to quite recently large quantities of opium were sent to Lashio from China. Even now, in spite of the protestations of Chinese officials, it is well known that there has been very little interference on the part of the Chinese authorities with the opium grown in Chengkang, Kengma, and Mong Ting. Opium belonging to Chinamen in Chefang has been destroyed with villages which grew it, but cultivation by Kachins in that State has not been touched, and fields were during the open season as clearly visible on the one side of the frontier as on the other. Large quantities of the opium grown in Chengkang and the neighbouring Chinese States are brought into Kokang to the middlemen, who deal with Lungling in China on the one side and the Chinese opium merchants of Lashio on the other.\" These statements are confirmed by the latest report on opium in Yünnan received from His Majesty's consul-general, Yünnan-fu, a copy of which was submitted to the Foreign Department of the Government of India with Mr. Rice's letter dated the 12th December, 1913. Appended to the consul-general's report is a translation of draft instructions prepared by the late Military Governor and the late Civil Administrator of the province of Yunnan, but not issued up to the date of the report. In these instructions it is claimed that in many districts of Yunnan the poppy has completely disappeared, but it is admitted that in a great number no attention has been paid to the orders, which have remained a dead letter. This admission appears to the Lieutenant-Governor to render superfluous any further disproof of the statements of the Yunnan Tutu, cited by the Wai-chiao Pu, regarding the success of the preventive measures.\n\n3. \"Once across the border,\" writes the Yunnan Tutu, \"the country is ablaze with poppy, for the Burma and Tonkin Governments have never made an attempt to check it; in consequence, the people flock across the frontier and carry on the cultivation of opium there.\" In forwarding a copy of this correspondence to His Majesty's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Sir John Jordan surmised that \"it is not unlikely that under the system known as 'trans-frontier cultivation' Chinese subjects living on the Yünnan side of the frontier own and cultivate fields of poppy within the territory of Burma,\" and he expressed the hope that the Government of India would be moved to take effectual measures for the suppression of the cultivation. It is perhaps unnecessary to remind the Government of India that the cultivation of the poppy in Burma proper has long been prohibited, and that cultivation in the hill tracts bordering on the Chinese frontier has hitherto been permitted only because of the difficulty of regulating it while cultivation continued unrestricted on the Chinese side of the border. The deputy commissioner, Myitkyina, considers that there has been a slight increase in the area cultivated in the Sadon hill tract of his district. He reports that in this tract a few tribesmen have hitherto been in the habit of crossing the frontier from China to grow the crop in British territory, not because of the restrictions imposed on poppy cultivation in their own country, but because the soil of the area cultivated is better than the soil near their own villages. He has, however, already issued orders to stop this practice. In the Bhamo district, the deputy commissioner considers that poppy cultivation has increased owing to the rise in the price of opium, and reports that many of the cultivators are Chinamen from over the border. In both districts the deputy commissioners consider that complete suppression of the cultivation could be enforced without any great difficulty. In the Southern Shan States the superintendent reports that, as the prohibition of opium has not been enforced in the States subject to China along the Kengtung border, there has been no emigration on that account from Chinese territory. He adds that in Kengtung there has been an increase of cultivation in recent years, but that elsewhere the cultivation is either declining or stationary. In the Northern Shan States all lands worked under the system of \"trans-frontier cultivation\" are said to be irrigated rice lands unsuited for opium cultivation. In 1911-12 some forty Chinese subjects of Chefang crossed the frontier and worked opium fields in the frontier circles of Wanting in defiance of customary law, but their crops were destroyed by the assistant superintendent, Kutkai, before they obtained any profit from them, and the attempt has not been repeated. The superintendent remarks that the high price now obtainable for opium has resulted in a considerable extension of the area under the crop. The general conclusion to be drawn from the various reports is that, except in the Kachin tracts of the Bhamo district, the cultivation of opium is not carried on in British territory by Chinese subjects living over the border, and the vivid picture which the Tutu draws of his people flocking over the border to cultivate the poppy is no more justified by facts than his description of the success which has attended the enforcement of preventive measures in his own territories. It is true that the cultivation of the poppy is permitted on the British side of the frontier, but this is merely a continuation of the state of affairs in force before the commencement of the anti-opium agitation in China.\n\n4. The Yunnan Tutu remarks that bad characters take the opportunity to smuggle, and owing to the intricacy of the paths it is impossible to stop the practice\"; and he adds that there is no prospect of a successful issue unless joint measures are taken by the authorities on both sides of the border for the suppression of this trade.\" As explained in paragraph 3 of my letter of the 20th August, 1913, this Government has hitherto acted on the principle that \"it is not incumbent on it to prevent the smuggling of opium into China,\" and the Tutu himself admits that owing to the intricacy of the paths it is impossible to stop the practice.\" In the past the stream of opium smuggling has flown westwards from China into Burma, and except, possibly, in ...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-417 - Public Offices - 1914.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 455528, "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": "CO129-424 - Governor Sir May - 1915 [9-10]", "page_number": 224, "title": "CO129-424 - Governor Sir May - 1915 [9-10]", "content_text": "## \n\nyour letter ho 170886 The 16th how. in the letter from the The 16th how. which 7.0. of was sent 7.0./53060 \n\n* your department and previous letters \n\n(Signed) H.

The forests being an easily-tapped source of revenue, they naturally suffer.\n\nLumber is one of the most important items in the export trade of the island. The approximate value of timber exported in 1914 was 600,000l, mainly composed of oak logs to Europe and oak sleepers to China. Soft woods, such as \"piune\" (i.e., conifers, but not the true pine, which is not indigenous), are used for pulp by the large paper mills in the island.\n\nThe principal forest trees are:—\n\nNara (Quercus grosseserrata).—A white oak, similar to the Austrian oak,\n\nSen (Kalopanax ricinifolius).—A short, stout tree, related to the ivy. Used for cheap furniture.\n\nGampi (Betula alba).—The white birch, and other birches.\n\nKatsura (Cercidiphyllum).—A member of the magnolia family, giving large logs; used for furniture.\n\nTamo (Fraxinus mandshurica).—White ash. A cheap wood, worth about 8d. per cubic foot. It has hitherto been...\n\nMatsu (Abies sachalinensis, and Picea ayanensis).—About 12,000,000 cubic feet of these trees, called \"pine,\" are cut yearly, for fuel and pulp. Yamanarashi (Populus tremula, var. villosa).—The aspen. used for match splints, but the supply is failing, and the next best wood, Populus maximowiczii, of which there is a good supply, is now being used, as also the lindens, for this purpose.\n\nMining,\n\nThe principal minerals worked are, in order of value :-\n\nCoal,\n\nSulphur,\n\nGold, silver and lead,\n\nCopper,\n\nIron,\n\nManganese,\n\nOil,\n\nHerring About 290,000 tons, value 675,000, in 1912.\n\nSalmon and sea-trout.—It is unfortunate that, both through reckless fishing and through the poaching methods of settlers living along river banks, the runs should now be much smaller than before. Attempts are being made to supply the deficiency by hatcheries. The present value per annum is only about 120,000l., at a liberal estimate, for salmon and trout caught in Hokkaido waters. Both fish are canned as well as dry-salted, and there is a small export; but the trade cannot stand up against the far more important Kamchatkan fisheries, which not only bring large sums to the Hokkaido every year, but also bring prosperity generally to the island, by providing employment for fishermen, boat-builders, net-makers, &c. Numerous concessions are held in Kamchatka by Japanese fishing-guilds based on Hakodate, and they employ Japanese labour and transport almost exclusively. It is instructive to note that one of the chief sources of wealth, and a great aid to the circulation of funds, in the Hokkaido is outside its boundaries, in foreign territory.\n\nCrabs are tinned for export; and large quantities of seaweed are sent to China.\n\nManufactures.\n\nIndustrially the Hokkaido is far behind the rest of Japan. The commonest manufactures are those which deal with agricultural produce as raw material, such as the brewing of beer, saké and soy, the manufacture of starch, peppermint oil, hemp rope, and fabrics. Following these come the canning or other treatment of marine produce, and the manufacture of paper, match-splints, &c., from foreign produce.\n\nThe manufactures carried out on the largest scale are:-\n\n \n Paper\n £ 500,000\n \n \n Saké, soy,\n £ 450,000\n \n \n Peppermint, crude (? doubtful)\n £ 160,000\n \n \n Starch\n £ 90,000\n \n \n Canned goods\n £ 82,000\n \n \n Beer\n £ 50,000\n \n \n Fertilisers\n £ 27,000\n \n\nThe total value of manufactures is estimated at less than 2,250,000.\n\nThe total value of mineral output in 1912 was about 1,000,000l.\n\nCoal is plentiful, and about 1,685,000 tons was mined in 1912. It is found chiefly in the Ishikari district; the best-known mines being those of Yubari, Horonai, Ikushunibetsu and Sorachi. There is only a small export, as the domestic demand is great; but foreign-going ships frequently enter the port of Muroran for bunker coal.\n\nSulphur.—Hokkaido sulphur is well-known. The output in 1912 was 30,000 tons of sulphur as well as about 15,000 tons of crude \"brimstone.\"\n\nThe quantities of other minerals mined are inconsiderable, but the poverty of inland communications make the progress of mineralogical survey slow, so that it is possible that there may be development in this field later.\n\nIn several parts of the island \"magnetic sand\" is found, but this, of course, has so far no commercial value.\n\nThe oil is said to be of rather better quality than that from the Echigo fields, but the output is negligible in volume. The Standard Oil Company at one time held an interest in the borings, but this has been taken over by Japanese oil companies.\n\nFisheries.\n\nAs stated above, the fisheries of the island are what first attracted merchants under the feudal régime, and they still employ a large proportion of the population (about 14 per cent. directly, and great numbers in related occupations). Reckless catching in past years has brought about a decrease in salmon, sea-trout, and herring, but the total value of catches remains steady. The gross value of fish and marine produce in general, taken annually, is about 1,500,000l. The principal items are...\n\nTrade.\n\nThe foreign trade for 1913 comprised :-\n\n \n Imports\n £ 795,000\n \n \n Exports\n £ 1,152,136\n \n \n Total\n £ 2,247,136\n \n\nThese figures do not, however, include the indirect imports and exports through Yokohama and other ports, which are proportionately high, owing to the lack of direct foreign freight from and to the Hokkaido.\n\nG.

In the other cases the number is arrived at by subtracting from the total increase the expected increase by excess of births over deaths at the average rate for Japan (12.8 per 1,000) on the population of the preceding year. The table is for 1911, the latest year for which all figures are available.\n\nESTIMATED Net Increase by Immigration, 1911.\n\n \n \n Japanese population and of 1910\n Increase by immigration in 1911\n \n \n Hokkaido\n 1,610,545\n 47,854\n \n \n Formosa\n 98,048\n 10,483\n \n \n Corea\n 171,543\n 36,951\n \n \n Kwantung*\n 62,338\n 4,285\n \n\nThe total increase in 1908-11 in Kwantung leased territory is composed of 13,735 males and 15,694 females. This may throw some light on methods of colonisation in China, since a large excess of males would be normal.\n\nThe approximate total of the net immigration of Japanese into territories under Japanese jurisdiction is therefore about 100,000 per annum.\n\nCL\n\nThe official \"Résumé Statistique\" states that in 1911 the number of passports issued to Japanese travelling to foreign countries was 29,950. Of these 7,774 were classified as emigrants, and 12,287 as fishermen. (Most of the latter would return to Japan in the same year, at the close of the season.) Travellers are not legally obliged to be furnished with passports, but in practice, especially if of the emigrant class, find them necessary, owing to the police and other regulations. These figures should therefore not be seriously incorrect.\n\nThe chief destination of these persons were:-\n\n \n Russia (at least 12,000 fishermen, who return in autumn)\n 16,210\n \n \n United States\n 3,895\n \n \n Hawaii\n 2,950\n \n \n China\n 2,143\n \n \n Canada\n 865\n \n \n Philippines\n 651\n \n \n Peru\n 411\n \n \n Australia\n 386\n \n \n Straits Settlements\n 259\n \n\nto another.\n\n15\n\nIt is plain that there cannot be any question of the population of Japan increasing so fast as to overflow its boundaries. In the first place its population increases, if anything, at a rate, slightly less than that of the United Kingdom (Japan, 10.6 per 1,000, United Kingdom, 11.06 per 1,000). In the second, the Hokkaido, with a total area of nearly one-fourth of the entire area of Japan, supports only about one-fiftieth of her population. It is estimated that there are in the Hokkaido 1,500,000 acres suitable for cultivation still undeveloped, so that, so far as concerns extent of territory, there is no pressure to cause emigration abroad. It is true that conditions of life in the Hokkaido are not easy for immigrants, but they are no harder than in the northern prefectures, nor is the climate any severer than that with which, say, the early settlers in New England had to contend, It certainly is less trying than that of Manchuria. That it is healthy is proved by the vital statistics, which show that the birth rate is so high and the death rate so low that the increment in population is 24 per 1,000,-twice that of the rest of Japan.\n\nYet 22 per cent. of the number of immigrants arriving in 1912 are recorded as having left the island in that year, and that is roughly in proportion for previous years. Though, under the circumstances, it cannot be said that an average immigration of nearly 50,000 per annum is small, it is difficult to escape the conclusion that at present the Japanese people are neither suited nor inclined to immigration on a large scale. They are, for one thing, at the mercy of their national diet. Even in the Hokkaido the amount of land under rice cultivation increases yearly, and every two or three years comes a bad crop, ruined by early frosts, with consequent famine and distress, as in 1913, with the result that in 1914 immigration figures dropped to 14,000.\n\nA meat and wheat-eating population would stand in no such danger. His Majesty's consul at Dairen informs me that even in that district the amount of land under rice is increasing. With regard to the Hokkaido, it is interesting to recall that Horace Capron, the adviser of the Hokkaido Development Commission in 1871-4, always contended \"that to ensure a healthy and vigorous development of the island it is necessary to change the habits and food of its present and prospective population; that it is folly to attempt a forced settlement depending on the rice of Nippon as their principal food.\" He maintained always that what the island really needed was white colonists, and this though he admired many Japanese characteristics.\n\nIt almost seems that the possible Japanese contribution to the development of any territory is at present confined to cheap labour. As an instance of this, one may mention that, among the chief sources of income of the Hokkaido is an annual sum of 300,000 derived from outside its boundaries from the salmon fisheries of Kamchatka, which are worked almost entirely by Japanese labour, and, it must be added, far more efficiently than could be done by Russian fishermen.\n\nG. B. S.\n\n476\n\nIt must of course be remembered that emigration to Australia, Canada, and the United States is restricted.\n\nIt is difficult to draw general conclusions from such statistics as the above; but defective as they are, they do seem to show that the volume of emigration from Japan, even to countries where admission is unrestricted, is so small that there cannot be any truth in the statement so often heard that population is pressing on the limits of territory or subsistence. In the year for which statistics are cited above, about 130,300 Japanese left the main island for the Hokkaido, Japanese possessions, and all parts of the world. In the same year the number of emigrants from the United Kingdom was 454,527. Of the 130,000 Japanese emigrants, 100,000 went to Japanese territory. About half of these did no more than migrate from one part of Japan to another.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-426 - Public Offices - 1915.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 459930, "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": "CO129-431 - Governor Sir May - 1916 [1-2]", "page_number": 63, "title": "CO129-431 - Governor Sir May - 1916 [1-2]", "content_text": "61\n\nJ.\n\nOJ\n\nIslن\".\n\n„Timko la yıĽELOVI, Dá\n\n#\n\n„Jel Kebrio” „GE.I roule volt o .sal en mi aboï\n\n2010, 00 ei whoð „ÍÍ „Jei soomevai, no baureİ\n\nKitui enak zou Ispred\n\nLoud ona “IrimusƆ ya snob Ale nienoiqu eni .Tooq ben\n\n· I !!

Although these brethren had a brief stay say 3 or 4 months, their illustrious lectures had affected the brethren's heart to a great extent, and the prosperity of Ghadar increased to tenfold. The Ghadar was issued in Hindi afterwards. Seditious books were published. With the advancement of the 20th Century the patriotism of Indians had increased more and more and the work was carried on with the greatest enthusiasm than before.\n\nBesides Urdu, Gurmukhi, Gujrati and Hindi dialects the Ghadar was issued in Pushto and Gorkha dialects as well. A book was published in the Bengali Bhasha (dialect).\n\nOne lac (one hundred thousand) seditious proclamations were published besides the Ghadar. 60 volumes of books were issued and it is a marvellous thing that all these were done by a second-hand old machine. Printing, circulation, and all other departments were established on a great new scientific system and this was all the reason of advancement that within a short time a big task was accomplished with a small capital by the help of the patriots which is marvellous in the history of India. This kind of work could not be traced in any history of the world. The valuable seditious articles and books are being distributed free. The poor artisans spend their well-cared savings in this good work. The poor patriots work free day and night.\n\nBrethren, See the Star of Ghadar is shining on your head; but Sepoys of Ghadar it has not reached the Zenith yet. You have done much work and there is still more to be done. As long as you do not reach your destination it will not be fit for the sepoys of Ghadar to stop sleep or slow down.\n\nGhadar is now merely a child of 2 years. He has just stepped into the third year.

The mountains here present a greyish hue, due to the abundance on the grassy slopes of a plant with silvery foliage, known locally as Viru-vira. This plant is a Composite, and is in repute as being a medicinal plant of considerable merit.\n\n## Mamancanaca Valley\n\nThe Mamancanaca valley is a very narrow one, and has no comparison with the Duriamenya valley, having a poor and stony soil. It is covered with scrub, Opuntias, Agaves, Furcraeas, Dodonaea viscosa, shrubby Solanaceae, plants in fact characteristic of dry and arid lands. In the upper part of this valley we camped for the night, and being Xmas-eve and short of provisions we shot, with the consent of the owner, Juan Bautista, a young bullock to replenish our larder.\n\n## The Ascent\n\nOn Xmas-day, my fever having abated, we started early for the snows, continuing our journey up the Mamançanaca valley for some distance, and then by way of the paramo of Jansabanaca to the peak known as Tayrona or Chundwa. My companions were Señor Garcia, Juan Bautista and his uncle and another Indian who travelled on foot. We rode as far as it was possible, and then tethered our animals to the rocks, to continue on foot. At this point we halted for a few minutes to take a little refreshment, and to admire the beautiful scenery. Here before us stood out the snow-capped peaks with their glistening slopes of frozen snow, crystal streams and cascades born of the melting snow. Below in the deep and distant valley on the right we saw the lakes of Janmeina, and noted cattle on its banks grazing in peaceful contentment. Janmeina is a chain of three lakes, and the picture from the snow-white peak down to the valley with the lakes, is one of unique and magnificent beauty and well worth a special visit of the artist. On walking to the other side of the ridge on which we stood we noticed also several picturesque lakes within closer view.\n\nThe upper part of the Sierra Nevada is exceedingly rocky, and the climb, though by no means difficult, was very arduous and trying. Climbing over huge boulders, rounding others too large to climb, and then crossing land slides composed of shale or finely broken rock, down which one might easily be carried hundreds of feet below, was the manner in which we made the final part of the ascent. At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon I reached the snow line, and shortly afterward the Indian who was carrying my instruments and camera, but Señor Garcia and the other two Indians, fatigued with the climb, returned to the point where we left the horses. I have no doubt that I should have been left alone to complete the latter part of the ascent, had not the Indian who accompanied me been charged with the responsibility of carrying my outfit. On reaching the top of the ridge at the snow line another panorama of remarkable splendor met our view, another range of snow-capped peaks and numerous little lakes situated at varying altitudes. More beautiful in grandeur appeared this entrancing panorama before us than the peak on whose ridge we stood. A false step here and one would be carried down the glacier hundreds of feet to the abyss below. Having taken the temperatures we descended the mountain, as it would have been quite impossible at that late hour of the day to have climbed the highest point of the peak, being obliged to return to our base camp in the valley. Apart from the question of time I doubt whether it would have been possible to have reached the summit of this peak without climbing equipment. Hurrying on, therefore, as fast as the rocky road permitted, we duly regained the point where our horses had been left, and where the other members of our party were awaiting us, and continuing our journey we reached our base camp at 7.30 at night.\n\n## Flora of the Sierra Nevada\n\nThe splendor of the mountain scenery of this upper zone, the snow-capped peaks and ridges, the picturesque lakes and lagoons quaintly situated at varying elevations, cannot be denied. Regarding the flora, however, of this region, as represented by the part traversed in this excursion, the Sierra Nevada has disappointed me. It is possible that there are other parts of the Sierra Nevada where the flora is richer in the upper reaches, but of this I have no personal knowledge, except regarding the Santa Marta side where the forest flora extends to higher reaches. I have ascended the mountains of India and Africa, the Ruwenzori of Africa, for example, and can say that the Sierra Nevada of Santa Marta bears no comparison with this African range, either in the variety of species or the beauty of the flowers. But the Ruwenzori has a different climate, the upper reaches of that mountain are nearly always enveloped in fine mist and the vegetation drips with moisture: there being no dry season of considerable duration as in the case of the Sierra Nevada. The flora of this mountain cannot therefore, be expected to be so luxuriant. On the Andes near Bogotá, well within a range of a thousand feet one meets with three distinct species of Frailejón (Espeletia spp) affecting different altitudes. Here on the Sierra Nevada I did not see more than one species, and that affecting only the upper zone; this Frailejón, though of the arborescent type, is of a different species to those of the Bogotá region, and has white or straw-colored flowers instead of yellow.\n\nPage 20\n\n## The Descent\n\nOn the 26th we left our camp at Mamancanaca and returning the same way as we ascended, we reached Circayuca at dusk. On the following day we proceeded on our journey to San Sebastian by another route, reaching there about mid-day. I had hoped to leave the same day for Valle Dupar, but unfortunately the tardy Indians did not provide oxen in time, nor did they appear till the evening of the following day.\n\n## San Sebastian to Valle Dupar Via El Talco\n\nWe left San Sebastian on the 29th, returning by way of El Mamon and El Talco and the valley of Guatapuri to Valle Dupar. The first part of our journey led us through interesting fertile lands, thence over the mountain known as El Mamon, the road reaching an altitude of 2,400 m, at its highest part. I was led to take this route in preference to the one via Puebloviejo, as it was said to be nearer and moreover enabled me to see a further part of this interesting mountain range. We were destined to camp the night at El Talco and this meant a descent from 2,400 metres to 750 over an awful track. El Talco is merely a camp on the road, and has apparently received its name from the supposition that talc is found in the locality. The mineral supposed to be talc is, however, mica, so the locality would be more appropriately named La Mica and not El Talco.\n\n## Guatapuri Valley\n\nThe road from El Talco to Valle Dupar is along the Guatapuri valley and a very rough one, the greater part being exceedingly rocky or stony. I noticed that efforts had been made to establish potreros in various parts of this valley, but the falling and decaying fences told the tale that success had not accompanied these efforts. The valley of Guatapuri from El Talco to Valle Dupar, is not, in my opinion, of any appreciable agricultural value.\n\n## The Sierra Nevada\n\nI have no hesitation in stating that I consider the Sierra Nevada range the most valuable region of this Department. Firstly, for the reason that within its limits can be grown a variety of products; from tropical crops in the lowlands, sub-tropical and temperate crops in the intermediate parts, to crops peculiar to cold regions in the upper zone. Secondly, because of the geographical position of the Sierra Nevada, being within easy reach of the most important markets of the West and of Europe. And lastly, because the Sierra Nevada should become the sanatorium of the Coast region, replacing the wasted forces of the tropical worker. Is not the Sierra Nevada the lungs of the Department, the accumulator of the forces which should be utilized to re-establish health and vigor?\n\nFrom a very hurried journey such as the one I have made, restricted to a relatively small area of this important range, I do not feel justified in treating the agricultural possibilities of the Sierra Nevada as a whole. The observations which follow, it should therefore be borne in mind, are framed from impressions made on this hurried trip, and are not the result of a detailed exploration of the range, such as I had desired to make and such as undoubtedly should be undertaken.\n\n## Wheat\n\nI had pictured the Sierra Nevada mountain, from what I had been told, a country of remarkable fertility and of wonderful and extensive wheat-growing lands. The Sierra Nevada is not in this respect any such \"El Dorado.\" There are in parts considerable expanses of fairly fertile lands, but there are equally large, if not larger areas of poor sterile lands. To describe the Sierra Nevada as a wheat-growing country, would be to display an ignorance of the wheat-producing lands of the world; for nowhere did I notice extensive areas where wheat could be grown and cultivated by modern methods such as would place the Sierra Nevada on a competing basis with wheat-producing countries. I do not say there is not land suitable for growing wheat, on the contrary, there are areas where wheat may be grown and grown at a profit for consumption in the country, lands without doubt superior to the lands above Bogotá devoted to that cereal. It is a matter of history that the early Spanish settlers grew wheat at or in the vicinity of Puebloviejo. I have there seen a millstone, found in recent years, which was doubtless hewn centuries ago from the granite boulders by the Spaniards for milling wheat. It is now employed for hulling coffee in one of the animal-drawn contrivances at Puebloviejo. This millstone might well find a place in the National Museum at Bogotá, as a record of the industry of the early settlers, an industry which it is to be deplored has not been emulated locally in more recent times. One of the principal features that struck me in this journey was the abundance of water everywhere. The Sierra Nevada is wonderfully well watered with beautiful clear crystal streams, affording abundant water for irrigation and power.\n\n## Possible Crops\n\nThe Sierra Nevada, as represented by the part I have traversed in this journey, is essentially the country for the colonist or man with small capital who is not afraid to work; for here is a country which is perfectly healthy and where the farmer's or planter's life is ideal. There are the lower zones adapted for cotton, cacao, sugar-cane, maize, etc. A little higher are lands suitable for coffee, ginger, citrus fruits, etc. Citrus growing should prove a new industry of great possibilities with suitable communication with the port at Santa Marta; for grapefruit and oranges should find a ready market in Panama and the United States, as well as the aguacate and granadilla and probably other fruits peculiar to this country and little known to the outside world. At a still higher elevation, wheat, barley, and oats might be grown in sufficient quantity to render the importation of these cereals from other countries no longer necessary. Is not the population of Santa Marta and the Coast generally importing potatoes from the United States, while here close at hand are suitable lands for the cultivation of that tuber, and indeed all classes of vegetables? With rapid communication with the Coast the cultivation of vegetables should indeed prove a ...\n\nPage 27\nPage 132", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-466 - Individuals - 1920.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 486686, "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": "CO129-466 - Individuals - 1920", "page_number": 365, "title": "CO129-466 - Individuals - 1920", "content_text": "## \n\nwhat his law \n\nhe depends \n\nALL loves and his time? \n\nWhen we have particulars Baker will raise promise and we will act \n\nThe RA Camera will communicate with Allori \n\nthe Lord Chan-Dewinter etc.; appoint \n\nand be 1920 as J.P. \n\nwent to being \n\nby the HONG KONG \n\n21201 \n\n1201 \n\n362 \n\nRE 27 APR 20 \n\nREC \n\nServices at Fel.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer now reminds the Board that the further gifts recited below have been made to His Majesty's Government.\n\n3. Federated Malay States.-In pursuance of the Resolution of 13th November 1917, the Federal Council decided to contribute a sum of £120,546 being the special revenue derived from enhanced railway fares in 1917 to the Imperial Government towards the expenses of the War. A sum of £85,306 6s. 4d. in excess of the £750,000 approved on 17th November 1917, for the year 1918, was collected in that year under the Federated Malay States War Taxation Enactment, and this additional sum has also been paid to the Imperial Government as well as £42,103 13s. 4d. representing the contribution from railway revenues during 1918. Further, the Federal Council resolved on 29th April 1919 to contribute £750,000 during the current year towards Imperial War Expenditure.\n\n4. Kelantan. The fund raised by the voluntary Income Tax imposed by British residents in Kelantan on 23rd February 1917 was closed, and the final instalment forwarded to the Imperial Government on 11th July 1919. The total contribution amounted to £1,285 7s. 4d.\n\n5. Sarawak. In April 1919 His Highness the Rajah of Sarawak intimated the desire of the Government of Sarawak to contribute £5,000 annually for six years to His Majesty's Government. Two instalments have been received.\n\n6. Brunei. A further contribution of £162 6s. 8d. has been received from the European Community in Brunei, being the proceeds of a voluntary Income Tax.\n\n7. Straits Settlements. The War Tax Ordinance of 1917 was renewed by Ordinance No. 2 of 1918 and again by Ordinance No. 9 of 1919. The £475,000 was received in respect of the year 1918, and £525,000 has been received in respect of the year 1919. These amounts represent the proceeds of the War Tax; in addition, £200,000 is being paid as a contribution from General Revenue for each of the two years.\n\n8. Turks and Caicos Islands.-In September 1918 the Legislative Board of the Turks and Caicos Islands voted a further sum of £450 as a contribution towards the cost of the War.\n\n9. North Borneo.-The sum of £613 17s. 11d. has been received from the inhabitants of North Borneo.\n\nThese sums have been paid into the Exchequer, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer recommends to the Board that for the present any other sums received shall be so treated. He proposes, however, that at the earliest convenient date this practice shall cease and such sums be devoted to the redemption of war debt.\n\nMy Lords approve.\n\nTheir Lordships' thanks have already been conveyed, through the Secretary of State for the Colonies, to the Legislatures and Communities of the Colonies and Dependencies concerned, but Their Lordships avail Themselves of this opportunity to place upon record Their appreciation of these spontaneous and generous contributions towards the expenses of the War. Let copies of this Minute be forwarded to the Secretary of State for the Colonies for transmission to the Federal Council of the Federated Malay States and to the Legislatures of the Colonies and Dependencies concerned, to the British Adviser to the Government of Kelantan, to His Highness the Rajah of Sarawak and to the British North Borneo Company.

During the years 1919 to 1921 the value of the Hongkong dollar has varied between 2s. 4d. and 3s. 3d., with violent rises and falls. It will be seen, therefore, that a sterling salary when expressed in dollars will vary within very wide limits, while the purchasing power of the dollar remains practically unaltered. The Colonial Government and some of those firms whose European Staffs are paid on a sterling basis have adopted special exchange rates to obviate the hardships which would otherwise result from these fluctuations in the value of the dollar. The salaries paid by the Government to the following classes of officers may be taken as an index of the general rates of pay for Europeans obtaining in Hongkong:-\n\n \n Cadet Officers\n £400-£1,200\n \n \n Crown Solicitor\n £1,000-£1,200\n \n \n Assistant Crown Solicitor\n £600-£800\n \n \n Chief Clerk, Colonial Secretariat\n £600-£800\n \n \n First Clerk, Colonial Secretariat\n £400-£600\n \n \n Medical Officers\n £600-£1,000\n \n \n Nursing Sisters\n £170-£225\n \n \n Senior Masters, Education Department\n £750-£850\n \n \n Masters, Education Department\n £100-£750\n \n \n Assistant Mistresses, Education Department\n £300-£400\n \n \n Engineers, Public Works Department\n £460-£950\n \n \n Senior Overseers, Public Works Department\n £400-£480\n \n \n Overseers, Public Works Department\n £260-£360\n \n \n Senior Sanitary Inspectors\n £400-£480\n \n \n Sanitary Inspectors\n £220-£360\n \n \n Revenue Officers\n £220-£360\n \n \n Chief Police Inspector and Chief Detective\n £500-£600\n \n \n Police Inspectors\n £400-£450\n \n \n Police Sub-Inspectors\n £320-£360\n \n \n Police Sergeants\n £220-£300\n \n \n Police Constables\n £160-£200\n \n\nThe cost of hotel accommodation for a single person varies from $145 to $250 per month, not inclusive of drinks, electric fans, and fires.

For people in better circumstances, and for larger families, the wages bill might amount to anything from $80 to $150 a month.\n\nAs a rough general estimate, the all-round expenditure of a senior Government Officer or senior Member of a large European firm, with a family of three or four persons, might be put at from $800 to $1,000 a month; of a junior, also with family, at $450 to $650: and of a European of the artisan class, with family, $250 to $350 according to size of family, habits, etc. In all these estimates, it is assumed that free quarters or rent allowances are provided.\n\nThe following are the present (1921) prices of some of the usual articles of consumption:\n\n \n (a) Locally raised:\n \n \n \n Beef\n 18 to 38 cents per lb.\n \n \n Mutton\n 25 to 42 cents per lb.\n \n \n Pork\n 15 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Chicken\n 35 to 60 cents each\n \n \n Capon\n 55 to 70 cents each\n \n \n Duck\n 32 to 55 cents each\n \n \n Turkey\n 40 cents each\n \n \n Pigeon\n 22 to 25 cents each\n \n \n Snipe\n ...\n \n \n Quail\n 18 to 20 cents each\n \n \n Partridge\n 15 to ... cents each\n \n \n Pheasant\n 14 to ... cents each\n \n \n Fish:\n \n \n \n Carp\n $1.25 to $1.75 each\n \n \n Cod fish\n about 24 cents per lb.\n \n \n Mullet\n 20 to 31 cents per lb.\n \n \n Oysters\n ...\n \n \n Perch\n 23 to 51 cents per lb.\n \n \n Pike\n 32 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Plaice\n 39 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Turbot\n 24 to 35 cents per lb.\n \n \n Crabs\n ...\n \n \n Lobsters\n 71 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Mackerel\n 20 to 32 cents per lb.\n \n \n Prawns\n 40 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Salmon\n 30 to 40 cents per lb.\n \n \n Shrimps\n 20 to 36 cents per lb.\n \n \n Soles\n 22 to 28 cents per lb.\n \n\nPage 30\n\nPage 31\n\n \n Fruit:\n \n \n \n Almonds\n about 45 cents per lb.\n \n \n Apples\n 32 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Bananas\n ...\n \n \n Carambola\n 4 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Pears\n 12 to 11 cents per lb.\n \n \n Persimmons\n 10 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Grapes\n ...\n \n \n Oranges\n 30 to 15 cents per lb.\n \n \n Vegetables:\n \n \n \n Long Beans\n about 12 cents per lb.\n \n \n Cabbage\n ...\n \n \n Carrots\n 20 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Lettuce\n 11 to 8 cents per lb.\n \n \n Mushrooms\n ...\n \n \n Onions\n 8 to 10 cents per lb.\n \n \n Parsley\n ...\n \n \n Potatoes\n 14 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Pumpkin\n ...\n \n \n Radish\n 5 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Spinach\n ...\n \n \n Tomatoes\n 18 to 21 cents per lb.\n \n \n Beet root\n 3 cents each\n \n \n Cucumbers\n 15 to ... cents per lb.\n \n \n Cauliflower\n 15 to ... cents per lb.\n \n\nThe pension rights and security of Government service and, on the other hand, the greater scope for individual enterprise in private employment are, of course, factors which must be taken into account in any comparison of rates of remuneration.\n\nACCOMMODATION AND COST OF LIVING.\n\nHouse rents in Hongkong are very high. For this reason, the Government and many of the large European firms either provide free quarters for their European employees or grant rent allowances in addition to salaries. The following, on which Government rent allowances are based, may be considered as reasonable rents:\n\n \n Salary not exceeding £600\n Rent $120 per month.\n \n \n Salary £600-£900\n $150\n \n \n Salary £900-£1,200\n $200\n \n \n Salary exceeding £1,200\n $250\n \n\n— 11 —\n\nPage 30\n\nPage 31\n\n12", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-474 - Governor Sir Stubbs - 1922 [1-4].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 492220, "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": "CO129-475 - Governor Sir Stubbs & Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1922 [5-7]", "page_number": 150, "title": "CO129-475 - Governor Sir Stubbs & Acting Governor Claud Severn - 1922 [5-7]", "content_text": "FROM 1922.\n\nStubbs\n\nCIRCULATION\n\nMr. Stubbs.\n\nMr. Grindle\n\nSir H.

Apart from denying the validity of the analogies advanced in that letter they repeat their previous argument that the restriction amounts to a prohibition of importation and, therefore, is in conflict with the policy of H.M.G. towards the convention for the abolition of export and import prohibitions and restrictions. This convention, however, is not applicable to any Colonies etc. which do not adhere or accede to it separately, and H.K. has now decided not to adhere (see despatch No.430 of 10th Sept. duplicate herewith). So far as H.K. is concerned, therefore, the convention may be ignored.\n\nThe Board also quote the precedent of the restrictions imposed on tin dredging machinery in the F.M.S.

A large number of trees were killed or damaged by the gale of August 20th and could not be replaced before the end of the year. The force of the gale did most damage between Castle Peak and Sheung Shui, where many fine specimens of Melaleuca Leucadendron were destroyed.\n\n### Trees Felled\n\nIncreased motor traffic necessitated the removal of a number of large shade trees from the sides of the motor roads. Other felling was carried out in connection with the development of building sites, the formation of dairy farms, and the leasing of the necessary grass-growing areas adjoining the farms, extensions of cemeteries, and work in connection with reservoir catchment areas.\n\n### Miscellaneous Planting\n\nPlanting of shade and flowering trees, shrubs, and creepers was carried on in large numbers of otherwise unused small open spaces in all parts of the Colony.\n\n### Undergrowth Clearing\n\nAnti-malarial clearing has now been extended to the Tai Po district, where systematic removal of undergrowth is carried out in the vicinity of houses and public buildings twice annually. During the year, the total areas cleared in connection with anti-malarial measures totalled 3,905,835 square feet. For other purposes, such as surveys, training of nullahs, and other public improvements, the areas cleared amounted to 2,642,805 square feet.\n\n### Insect Pests\n\nPine Tree Caterpillars (`Eutricha punctata`) appeared in the Pine plantations in many parts of the Colony in March and were in evidence at the end of the year. Serious damage was done to Pine trees during the month of June. Collection and burying of the caterpillars was commenced when there was no longer any hope of weather conditions destroying the pest. The total amount collected and destroyed in all parts of the Colony was 14,637 pounds.\n\n### Protection from Fire\n\nA total of 30 hill and plantation fires occurred during the year. No serious damage was done to any Government plantation, but large numbers of wild trees on the slopes of Tai Mo Shan were destroyed. Little or no assistance in dealing with fires was given by village people living within short distances of the burnt areas. Most of the fires appeared to be due to careless dropping of lighted tobacco or matches.\n\nThe wet days preceding the Tsing Ming and Chung Yeung festivals prevented the usual number of fires that break out in the vicinity of isolated graves and cemeteries. Fire barriers in plantations, in the vicinity of cemeteries and graves, were cleared, with the major portion of the work being completed before the end of the year. A new fire barrier was made at West Bay to protect the young plantations established there.\n\n### Forest Guards Service\n\nThe total number of persons arrested and charged with forestry offences during the year was 355. Of these, 300 were fined or imprisoned, 26 cautioned, 10 had their bail estreated, 10 were discharged, 6 bound over in personal bonds of $100 each, and charges against 8 were withdrawn. Full particulars of these cases are given in Tables I & II.\n\n| Outcome | Number |\n| -------------- | ------ |\n| Fined/Imprisoned | 300 |\n| Cautioned | 26 |\n| Bail estreated | 10 |\n| Discharged | 10 |\n| Bound over | 6 |\n| Charges withdrawn | 8 |\n\nFifteen persons who were convicted of a second, and in some cases, a third or fourth forestry offence were banished. A number of the persons so dealt with lived entirely on the proceeds of timber and other thefts, and their absence from the Colony has undoubtedly lessened the destruction of mature timber in the older plantations.\n\nChiefly as a result of penalties inflicted and warnings given in District Officers' Courts, the amount of illicit felling of the larger indigenous trees in outlying districts was much less than during the past five years.\n\nEfforts are still being made to stop the cutting of New Year Flower (`Enkianthus quinqueflorus`). Notices are now posted in all parts of the Colony for some weeks prior to Chinese New Year, warning the villagers against destroying this flowering shrub. This, and the fact that a plentiful supply is now brought down from Canton, has had the effect of lessening the more serious wholesale cuttings, but thefts of small quantities in the Wan Chai Gap and Tytam districts were again numerous.\n\nA Forest Guard was seriously assaulted by villagers from Chung Pak Long while on duty in the Pine plantations at Fan Ling. The offenders were subsequently arrested and sentenced to terms of imprisonment.\n\n### Forestry Service Paths\n\nOne new path leading from Stanley Gap to West Bay was made. All other paths were given such attention as they required.\n\n### Forestry Licences, New Territories\n\nFees collected during the year amounted to $4,099.70, as against $4,888.74 in 1926.\n\nPage 80", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-511-22 Annual general report 1927 12-10-1928 - 26-11-1928.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523647, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 1, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "CLOSED UNTIL \n\nPrevious \n\n1930 \n\nNo. 72762 \n\nSUBJECT. \n\nHong Kong \n\nChinese Labour \n\nRecruitment of for Western Samoa \n\nCO129/522/9 \n\nSubsequent \n\n82852/31 \n\nFILE C \n\n85065 780/13 5,000 7/48 N.M.Ltd.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523648, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 2, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "For 552\n\nRequests\n\nusbuchin\n\n27.12.29.\n\npropaol\n\nAm minimum period of senu it\n\nhm 3 10\n\no Ab 112\n\n21\n\nRequests\n\nagents in 16\n\nMA\n\nA\n\nGr Gen N.Z.

No labourer hereafter arriving in Western Samoa shall hereafter be under any circumstances criminally punishable by fine, imprisonment or otherwise for any breach of a contract of service.\n\nThe statement of the terms which is attached states that the engagement is for a term of 3 years at the end of which the labourer will be repatriated, but after consideration a labourer may engage for a further period of 3 years. As regards an extension of the period of the service to 4 years, the O.A.G. of Hong Kong states that 3 years is the usual term for contracts in the South Seas and is longer than the term for the East Indies, the distinction being due to the greater expense of conveying emigrants to the South Sea Islands and to the fact that most Administrations in these islands do not encourage free settlement of Chinese and are therefore liable to incur heavy expenditure on account of labourers repatriated at the end of their term.\n\nThe O.A.G. sees no objection to the extension of the term to 4 years, except that the labourer will be prejudiced in so far as his opportunity of making a better bargain with his employer as a condition of renewing his agreement will be deferred for the extra year, and from the point of view of the Hong Kong Government.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523650, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 4, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "4\n\nGovernment any such extension of the term would no doubt be quoted as a precedent for similar action in the case of other Pacific Islands which are allowed to recruit Chinese labour in Hong Kong.\n\nNauru, Ocean Island, and Makatea).\n\nAs regards the insertion of the proposed new clause in the contracts to be signed by emigrants on arrival in Western Samoa, the O.A.G. of Hong Kong recognises that to some extent a point of principle is involved. His enquiries elicited the rather disturbing fact that the insertion of the proposed clause was intended to regularise a practice which had already been in force for some time, (although not appearing as one of the terms of agreement on the basis of which recruitment of Chinese labour in Hong Kong for Western Samoa had been authorised by the O.A.G. and the Secretary of State).\n\nIn order not to conflict with the provision in the Samoa Free Labour Ordinance which prohibits punishment by fine for a breach of contract of service, the method of recovery of the 9d a day is not by way of fine but by deduction from future wages and recovery is not enforceable by imprisonment. The Western Samoa Administration declare it to be essential to maintain this mild deterrent against a tendency towards unreasonable absence from work. The O.A.G. explains that in Samoa the pay of casual labour is often high and the temptation to malinger may be great, while particularly on cocoa plantations the temporary absence of his workmen may at times cause\n\nan", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523651, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 5, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "5\n\n: \n\n62794/19/408/\n\nB\n\nan employer very serious loss.\n\nThe \"overhead charges\" are defined by the Western Samoa Administration as a portion of the cost of recruitment and repatriation.\n\nIn the case of Sarawak, the Secretary of State decided to turn down a proposal to insert in the terms of the agreement for service in the case of labourers emigrating to that territory, that each man should be required to acknowledge a debt of $48 to the Company, to be repaid by instalments in respect of the cost of his passage but that there is a material distinction in the Western Samoa proposal which may be summed up as concerning not the terms of the contract but the terms of a breach of the contract.\n\nIn the form recommended by the Western Samoa Administration I cannot see that any exception should be taken to the insertion of the proposed clause, but on the question of the extension of the minimum term from 3 to 4 years, I am more doubtful.

After some correspondence, the Governor of Hong Kong was informed in 1920 that he might permit recruitment of such labour in Hong Kong, subject to the observance of the local law as to Chinese passengers, which presumably meant that labourers must be technically free, that is, not have signed any contract when they left Hong Kong.\n\nThe correspondence is printed in Command 919. Although Chinese labour was wanted in Samoa, Chinese settlers were not, and in 1921 a request from the Chinese Government that labourers whose contracts had expired might be allowed to remain was refused. They could enter into a second indenture for three years, making six years in all, but beyond that the New Zealand authorities would not allow them to stay. (See 18155/21 and 39318/21)\n\nIn 1923, new terms and conditions for Agreements for Chinese labour were brought into force (See 44670/23 and 11713/24). The previous system had apparently been an ordinary indentured system. Under the new one, it was stated that all indentured labourers would become free labourers, but I am not sure that this is strictly true.\n\nThe general effect of the system, which, so far as we know, still remains in force, is that", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523659, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 15, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "the labourer enters Western Samoa under an \n\nobligation to work, although not for any \n\nparticular employer. \n\nVery wide discretionary powers are given to the Commissioner \n\nto see that the labourers carry out their \n\nobligations and in the allotment of them to employers. The system might always be \n\nrepresented as indenture to the Government \n\nwhich then divides the labourers up among \n\nemployers, but a great deal rests on the \n\nCommissioner. In fact, the absence of \n\ncomplaints suggests that he has used his \n\npowers well, and the system seems to work \n\nsatisfactorily. \n\nIn 1924, the Chinese authorities in \n\nCanton attempted to maintain that the \n\nrecruitment of Chinese labour for Western \n\nSamoa in or via Hong Kong, was illegal. \n\nThe suggestion was resisted and appears to \n\nhave been dropped by the Chinese.

It appears that the insertion of this additional clause in the labourers' agreement is intended to regularize a practice which has been in force for some time. It seems clear also that some such deterrent is desirable if the Government and the employer are not to suffer unnecessary loss should the labourer without good reason absent himself from work. I understand that in Samoa where the pay of casual labour is often high the temptation to 'malinger may be great, while, particularly on cocoa plantations, the temporary absence of his workmen may at times cause an employer very serious loss.\n\nThere is no reason either to suppose that the provision will inflict any undue hardship on the labourers or that the words \"of their own fault\" and \"without valid reason\" will be interpreted other than fairly.\n\n4.

This is the usual term for contracts in the South Seas. In the East Indies the labourer engages to work for his employer for a period of 300 to 360 working days before he can claim repatriation; but, owing to the greater expense of conveying emigrants to the South Sea Islands and to the fact that most administrations there do not encourage free settlement by Chinese and are therefore liable to incur heavy expenditure on account of men repatriated at the end of their term, the longer\n\nTHE RIGHT HONOURABLE\n\nLORD PASSFIELD,\n\n&c.,\n\n&c.,\n\n&c.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523680, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 36, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "38\n\nA longer period has been agreed to in such cases. Assisted emigrants are recruited in Hong Kong for Nauru, Ocean Island, and Makatea as well as Western Samoa on this condition.\n\n3. In no instance, however, has the period of engagement exceeded three years, although in Samoa and elsewhere the labourer may be permitted to re-engage himself for a further period of three years.\n\n4. There is no reason to suppose that emigrants could not be secured who would be perfectly willing to engage themselves for a period of four years, as the pay and conditions offered by the Samoa administration compare very favourably with those in many other places. It is realised also that, making allowance for time spent on the voyage and for a period of acclimatization, the cost of this labour to employers is apt to be unduly high. At the same time, the extension of the term of his agreement will prejudice the labourer in so far as he will be debarred for a period of one year from the opportunity of making a better bargain with his employer as a condition of the renewal of his agreement.\n\n5. Labourers recruited for Samoa are attracted by the conditions, and it would appear that the wages paid enable them to maintain a standard at least as high as they could have expected to maintain in China; and no complaints have been received from Samoa or from repatriated emigrants. Four years does not in all the circumstances seem excessive, an important point being that the labourers in Samoa remain under British control; and I recommend that the concession sought should be granted. Any such concession will, of course, be quoted as a precedent for an extension of the period of engagement to work in other Pacific islands; and it", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523681, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 37, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "3.\n\nA\n\n39\n\nit is with a full appreciation of the difficulty of refusing\n\nto recognize the precedent that I make my recommendation.\n\n6.\n\nA copy of this despatch has been forwarded\n\nto His Excellency the Governor-General of New Zealand.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nMy Lord,\n\nYour Lordship's most obedient,\n\nhumble servant,\n\nGovernor, &c.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 523682, "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": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "page_number": 38, "title": "CO129-522-9 Chinese labour in Western Samoa 22-10-1929 - 19-1-1931", "content_text": "Sir,\n\nWELLINGTON,\n\n22nd October, 1929.\n\n40 END\n\nI have the honour to inform you, on the advice of my Ministers, that the Administration of Western Samoa are anxious to arrange, if possible, for an extension of the period of service of Chinese labourers in the Territory from three years to four years.\n\n2.\n\nAs the Hong Kong Government are aware, these coolies are free labourers and not indentured, they are entitled if they wish to be returned to Hong Kong on the expiration of a period (at present) of three years, and no coolie is allowed to remain for more than two such periods.

This matter has been taken up strongly with manufacturers at home, and it is hoped that a change will shortly be made. As has been previously stated, the sale of tinplate in Japan is in the hands of a comparatively few firms, the most important being Mitsui Bussan Kaisha, Mitsubishi Shoji Kaisha, Iwai & Co., and Sale & Co., and a firm of manufacturers giving an agency to any particular one of the above mentioned, runs the risk of giving grave offence to the others.\n\nThe only satisfactory method of conducting business in Japan is to have a representative whose business should be to canvass firms frequently, obtaining orders through existing channels, but by his efforts stimulating business and diverting it to the proper quarters. Wherever possible, without giving offence, buyers should be induced to purchase direct, but this would undoubtedly take time. The purchase of tinplate through existing channels has the advantage of relieving firms to a large extent of financial responsibility.\n\nThe fact that the Japanese have a strong bent for imitation, would lead one to suppose that in the course of time they will manufacture their own tinplate on a greater scale than is being done at present. Already a very passable plate is being produced at Yawata, and projects are under consideration for the establishment of an additional tinplate works based on the collective practice of the best Welsh, American and German design. This factor should not be overlooked when considering development of trade in Japan, and consideration should be given to the fact that tinplate imports are likely to ultimately decrease rather than increase, although the consumption may rise.\n\nThere are two points which should be emphasised:\n\nFirstly. A great deal of harm has been done to the tinplate trade by the selling of \"merchant brands\" (that is to say, a merchant who has received a contract for perhaps 20,000 boxes of tinplate, purchases from five to six different works, puts his own brand on them and sends them out to Japan). It will at once be seen that it is impossible to obtain equal quality under these conditions, and this has been one of the chief complaints made against us.\n\nIt is difficult to know how to overcome this difficulty, as merchants naturally are not eager to give manufacturers the names of their customers, or to allow their customers to know the source of supply in case direct business follows but, unless tinplates are sold under works' or manufacturers' brands, it will be impossible to obtain the high standard of quality necessary.\n\nSecondly. The necessity for driving home the principle of reciprocal trade. For example, most of the tinned salmon and crab packed in the Kamchatka Peninsula is sent to England and is either sold there or distributed therefrom, but it goes to England packed in American tinplate. Now that we are able to give a quality equal to that of America, and at a competitive rate, there is no reason why this should continue. Firms at home purchasing canned marine products, should be asked to stipulate that in return for the business given to Japanese and the financial facilities offered by British houses, all canned marine produce going to England should be packed in British tinplate.\n\n## CHINA\n\nDuring 1929, 72,000 tons of tinplate were imported into China, representing a value of approximately £1.44 million. Of this, 45,000 tons are consumed by the oil companies, such as the Asiatic Petroleum Company (North and South China), the Standard Oil Company, the Kwang Hwa Company, and the Industrial and Commercial Oil and Refining Company; 5,000 tons are used by the egg produce firms, such as the China Egg Produce Co., D.W.O., Behr & Matthew, the Henningsen Egg Produce Co., and International Export, with factories at Shanghai, Nanking, Hankow, Tsingtao and Tientsin; 13,000 tons are used for general canning of meat, vegetables, biscuits, fruit, fish, etc., and 9,000 tons by the British-American Tobacco Co., and various native tobacco concerns. These figures are for China, including Hongkong.\n\nIn comparison with the other figures, the 13,000 tons for general canning may seem small, but it should be remembered that most of the locally made biscuits, sweets, etc., are packed in old kerosene tins boiled out and cleared, and fitted with a circular \"press on\" lid. They are also much used for the lining of wooden cases for various packing purposes, roofing, and almost universally by tin-smiths manufacturing all sorts of tinned ware. In addition to this, all local traffic in ground nut and wood oils for varnish is done in old four-gallon kerosene tins, while such oils are exported in bulk or in steel drums.\n\nOf the 72,000 tons mentioned, about 40 per cent. to 45 per cent. is of British origin, the remainder coming from the United States. The same faults as have been attributed to British tinplate in Japan also apply in China, and the period of change over from British to American sources of supply dates to about the same period as has been previously described.\n\nThe chief centres of business for tinplate in China are Shanghai, Hongkong, Hankow, Tientsin, Canton, Nanking and Swatow, and to a less degree Tsingtao, Amoy and Foochow. Shanghai acts as a centre of distribution, up the Yangtze north to Weihaiwei, and has influence as far south as Swatow. Hongkong acts as a distributor for Macao, Canton and to a certain extent Swatow, Amoy and Foochow, but owing to the difference in the Hongkong and Shanghai exchanges, most of the goods not directly imported to these three places come from Shanghai.\n\nWhen conditions are more peaceful, Hankow would do most of her own importation direct during the highwater period, May to September, as ocean-going steamers of 12,000 to 15,000 tons can get there at that period. A certain amount of material from Hongkong goes to Formosa, to those Chinese firms who are allowed direct trading facilities by the Japanese.\n\nThe unsettled conditions which prevail generally and especially round Hankow in the Honan and Hupeh areas, and in and around Canton extending to Swatow, have produced a feeling of nervous uncertainty among traders, and have restricted enterprise and extension of businesses at a time when China is rapidly awaking and should be taking her place among the traders of the world. Had she been at peace, internal communications, both road and rail, would have been rapidly opened up, with a consequent beneficial effect on trade generally. The railways, especially around Nanking and Hankow, having been used practically entirely for military traffic, have been let go to rack and ruin, with the result that trade in those areas is practically at a standstill.\n\nUnlike Japan, the tinplate trade in China is in the hands of a very large number of firms, all competing against each other and very few conversant with the technicalities of the trade. The evil of the \"merchant brand\" is even more pronounced in China than it is in Japan. Some native firms even go to the length of purchasing wasters, taking off the waster mark and substituting \"prime.\" The result of this is that British firms suffering in this way, have got the name of selling an inferior prime to that of America, and manufacturers at home should be warned that it would pay them in the long run to so brand their products that it would be impossible to erase the distinguishing marks. It is also suggested that every box of tinplate has inside the tin lining a printed slip stating the grade, i.e., prime, waster, or waste-waste.\n\n133\n\n323", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-531-10 Hong Kong University- encouragement of Chinese students to counteract American influence 30-5-1931 - 1-9-1931.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 529708, "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": "CO129-533-12 Additional revenue proposals- revision of postal rates 2-3-1931 - 8-10-1931", "page_number": 20, "title": "CO129-533-12 Additional revenue proposals- revision of postal rates 2-3-1931 - 8-10-1931", "content_text": "## the covering despatch \n\nThe draft minutes **AL** not enclose but she simply \n\n20 \n\nThe Course of the Report \n\n2) Convention that it was clear that it was \n\nthat the attention of the was to be directed particularly to certain points raised in (b) to (f) of this draft recommendations in 32.\n\n3) Ash to BAG.; Phones & Hommertinen \n\nThe general conclusions by 12 Burney & on particular recommendations he makes & on those made by the liaison are supplementary to his.\n\nSWGent. 2012 al 20 J.

See Dominions 56803/24 and connected papers up to 37882/25 in Dominions Office bundle herewith.\n\nIt was then maintained that the practice of recruitment of Chinese labour for Samoa was illegal and contrary to the Anglo-Chinese Convention of 1904. It was held here that the Convention did not apply, for various reasons - see Mr. Price's Minute of the 7th of February, 1925 on 2493/25. The most important point is that we contend that these labourers are not indentured.\n\nThe same considerations still apply, and I think we can take the line that the Convention may be ignored.

Sir Miles Lampson is, however, uneasy about the suggestion that it is usual for the recruiters who go to China to persuade far more Chinese to come to Hong Kong than have any chance of being actually engaged. It is probably true that this is the practice as the recruiting Company must have some reserve to cover the would-be emigrants who decline engagement at the last minute or who are found unfit.\n\nIf the statements of the Hong Kong authorities are correct, it does not seem to be a great hardship on the men as they are kept in Hong Kong and their only expense is their fare to the Colony and even that is sometimes paid for them. In any case, it is difficult to see how Hong Kong could prevent this. If labourers in China are persuaded that there are good chances of employment being obtained in Hong Kong, it would be very hard for the Hong Kong Govt. to prevent their coming to the Colony.

Lieb, Livingston and Company of Hongkong.\n\nIn making their complaint against the firm in question the Chinese authorities have, I observe, invoked the Migration Convention of 1924, which, in my opinion, is inapplicable in this instance for the following reason.\n\nIf it had been the intention of the parties to the Convention that it should govern all recruiting in China of Chinese labourers for service in British possessions, it would be difficult to defend its exclusion by the adoption of Macau, where labour is in China and sent to Hongkong to be recruited and shipped there. I consider that the Convention must be read as confined to \"indentured emigrants\", not only because that expression is used in Article 1 of the Convention but also because the Convention contains somewhat detailed provisions (Articles 2, 4, 7 and 8) as to the provisions which the indenture is to contain, and the steps to be taken to ensure that the migrants are really acquainted with the nature of the contract into which they are entering. I do not think, therefore, that it is possible to regard the Convention as applicable.\n\nSir Miles Lampson, K.C.M.G., C.B.,\n\n...\n\n \nhas been replaced with the correct closing as it was not provided in the original text.

It does not appear to be disputed that in this particular case there are no contracts at all and if this is the case, it is not necessary, in my opinion, to pursue the point raised in 1928 (see His Majesty's Consul General at Canton's despatch No.39 of June 11th, 1925, a copy of which was enclosed in Mr. Alairac's despatch No.441 of June 27th 1925) as to whether pre advances amounted to a form of indentured labour.\n\n5.

The facts of the case appear to be briefly as follows.\n\nMessrs: Gibb, Livingston and Company engage from time to time in the business of recruiting consignments of Chinese labourers for Samoa. Their Chinese recruiters visit Kuangtung and collect Chinese coolies who are induced to go to Hongkong where they are taken charge of by a Chinese boarding house pending examination and selection of those fit for export to Samoa.

The Chinese Authorities proceed to claim the right to control the recruiting of this labour in accordance with the terms of the Emigration Convention of 1904. To these representations His Excellency the Governor of Hongkong replies (to Mr. Phillips) that the Convention of 1904 is inapplicable because it refers only to the recruitment of indentured labourers and not to ... been unable to obtain assisted emigrants and that he has ... confirmation of the allegations against the Chinese boarding house, Mr. Phillips requests my instructions as to whether he should transmit this reply to the Chinese Authorities as he entertains misgivings as to the correctness of the attitude of the Hongkong Government in the matter.\n\n3.\n\nWith a view to clarifying the issues involved in this somewhat complicated case I submit the following explanation of the attendant circumstances of the case, as I understand them. To begin with an indentured labourer is one who leaves China under a contract to serve for a specified time under specified conditions in a foreign land. A free labourer (such as the ordinary Chinese emigrant to Malaya) is one who leaves China unbound by any contract to find work abroad.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-536-2 Recruitment of Chinese labourers for Samoa 26-5-1931 - 29-1-1932.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 531996, "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": "CO129-536-2 Recruitment of Chinese labourers for Samoa 26-5-1931 - 29-1-1932", "page_number": 32, "title": "CO129-536-2 Recruitment of Chinese labourers for Samoa 26-5-1931 - 29-1-1932", "content_text": ":C\n\n31\n\n3.\n\nAn assisted emigrant (from Hongkong) is one who signs no contract but receives advances to cover the cost of the journey. We have two Treaty engagements with the Chinese Government on the subject of emigration; the Convention of 1860 which provides that Chinese shall be free to enter into arrangements with British subjects to emigrate; and the Convention of 1904 which was concluded for the specific purpose of sending Chinese labour to South Africa.\n\nIt seems that in the present case the labourers are not indentured but assisted emigrants; that they sign no contracts, and that the Convention of 1904 is therefore inapplicable.\n\n5.\n\nIf this is so, the matter resolves itself into the question of whether or not the Chinese complaints against the methods of recruitment in China and the arrangements made by the Chinese recruiters and the boarding house in Hongkong can properly be dismissed in the manner proposed by Hongkong. This is of course primarily a matter of domestic concern to the Government of Hongkong; and the whole business may well be an attempt by the Chinese Authorities (similar to other attempts made in the past) to squeeze money out of this particular recruiting enterprise. At the same time a perusal of the papers leaves some doubt in my mind as to whether the complaints are entirely groundless. It would seem that some means might well be found for ensuring that only those coolies proceed to Hongkong who are reasonably sure of being exported to Samoa, or at least for safeguarding the rejected against financial loss.

As to the expenses of board and lodging while in the boarding house, the rejected does not pay a cent.

For each man who ultimately sails $17 is payable by Leung Hop to the \"Hak Tau\"; but from these sums of $17 Leung Hop deducts the expenses of all the \"Hak Tau's\" men (whether rejected or passed) while in the Boarding House, plus the fares of those who are sent back to the country. 40 cents a day is the charge for board and lodging in the Hop Kei Boarding House. The Boarding House only takes in men who are brought in to it by a \"Hak Tau\". Everyone who enters the Boarding House is entered in the register and is photographed. In 1930, 768 candidates in the Boarding House were photographed. Of these, 282 were passed by the doctor, but only 251 eventually sailed to Sanca.

Mr. Barker added that in some cases men will not leave their village unless their friends come too, and even though these friends do not look physically likely to be accepted, yet the \"Hak Tau\" brings them all down.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-536-2 Recruitment of Chinese labourers for Samoa 26-5-1931 - 29-1-1932.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 532008, "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": "CO129-536-2 Recruitment of Chinese labourers for Samoa 26-5-1931 - 29-1-1932", "page_number": 44, "title": "CO129-536-2 Recruitment of Chinese labourers for Samoa 26-5-1931 - 29-1-1932", "content_text": "43 END.\n\nThis system has been going on since 1918. Many men have gone to Samoa and returned home and are anxious to go again or to become recruiters. Leung Fo himself was in Samoa and is now in permanent employment in the Taikoo Docks. He does not rely on this recruiting for his livelihood, as it only happens at long intervals; and he does not make a very substantial profit.\n\nLet us take 15 men as a sample batch of \"Hak Tau\". On the 1950 proportion, 10 of these would be rejected and 5 would be passed. The 10 rejected would in any case stay in the boarding house for, say, 4 days at 40 cents a day each total $16. 10 fares back to the country at say $8 total $80. 5 men in the boarding house for say 10 days at 40 cents total $20. Grand total $56.\n\nNow for the 5 accepted men, $17 a head is credited to the \"Hak Tau\". Total $85 from which must be deducted the above $56. The \"Hak Tau's\" profit is $29 which certainly seems pretty small.\n\nAs to the allegation in the letter dated 18th April, 1931, from the Canton Municipal Government to His Majesty's Consul-General, Canton, that the candidates are required to pay up money, this is absolutely untrue.

On completion of flying practices at 1245, H.M.S. \"Defender\" proceeded to Saman Roads, coming to anchor at 1322. At 1830, weighed and proceeded to carry out a dusk patrol across the entrance to Bias Bay, anchoring in Harlem Bay, at 1852.\n\n3.\n\nThursday, 31st January.

Subsequently proceeding to rendezvous with Captain (D), 8th Destroyer Flotilla at 0900 off Waglan for exercises. On completion of exercises at 1005, H.M.S. \"Defender\" returned to the patrol area, and anchored in Mirs Bay at 1240. At 1830, weighed and proceeded to carry out a dusk patrol between Mirs Point and Single Island, anchoring in Saman Roads at 2000.\n\n4.\n\nFriday, 1st February • At 0445 weighed in order to make weather report, and proceeded to patrol off Single Island, subsequently anchoring off Mirs Point, prior to joining H.M.S. \"HERMES\" off Bate Island at 0940 for flying practices. These were carried out in Mirs Bay and the western part of the patrol area, and during this period H.M.S. \"DEFENDER\" was keeping W/T watch on 240 k/cs, H.M.S. \"HERMES\" being guard on 113 k/cs.\n\n5. At 1250 your signal 1145/1st February was received from H.M.S. \"KARNES\", and I was ordered to proceed as directed therein at 1300. About 25 minutes was lost through this signal first being passed by V/S in coded groups many of which were mutilated. Position at 1244 was 6.4 miles 213 deg: from Single Island, course 060 deg: speed 15 knots. Before parting company, Commanding Officer, H.M.S. \"HERMES\" informed me by signal that aircraft would be flown off in the afternoon to search out the area in the vicinity of Chilang Point.\n\n6. I accordingly set course for Chilang Point at 24 knots, intending to close in towards Goat Island and investigate the coast between Tai Sami Head and Chilang Point before establishing a patrol to the southeastward of Chilang Point.\n\n7.\n\nAt about 1400 I observed that one of the two aircraft sent out by H.M.S. \"HERMES\" was patrolling along the coast. I therefore decided that it would be unnecessary for me to waste time in closing Goat Island and maintained my course for position 8 miles south of Chilang Point.\n\n8.\n\nAt 1500 I overtook the S.S. \"SUISANG\" northward bound, to whose Master I passed a message requesting him to inform the A.P. vessel if he saw or heard anything of S.S. \"TUNGCHOW\".\n\n9.\n\nAt about 1510 I observed a small steamer in Hong Hai Bay (estimated position 5 miles 270 degrees from Tsiech Point) steering for Tai Sami. It appeared to me to be one of the small vessels which ply between the coastal villages lying between Mirs Bay and Hie Chi Chin Bay.

The Sub-Committee had considered various names, among them those of Mr. H.J. Brett, former Commercial Secretary of Legation, and Dr. Gordon Thompson of the Lester Institute, Shanghai who was now acting as the Honorary Secretary of the Medical Sub-Committee. It had decided to recommend the latter for the secretaryship of the Fund.\n\nThe Committee approved of this recommendation and decided to appoint Dr. Thompson.\n\nDr. Thompson being in receipt of a salary from the Lester Institute, the question was raised whether he should receive a salary or an honorarium. The matter was left to the decision of Sir Harold Fawcus and Mr. D.G.M. Bernard, the Hon. Treasurer.\n\nMr. Bernard suggested and it was agreed that when Dr. Thompson had taken over his duties they should include both those of secretary and of treasurer, cheques to be counter-signed by a member of the Finance Sub-Committee.\n\n3. **Resignation of Mr. Gull from Honorary Secretaryship**.\n\nReferring to a letter which he had sent to Lord Donoughmore on November 9th resigning from the Honorary Secretaryship of the Fund, Mr. Gull formally tendered his resignation to the Committee.\n\nMr. Gull was thanked for the services which he had rendered.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-563-19 Sino-Japanese War- fund for relief of distress in China 5-10-1937 - 17-11-1937.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 555555, "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": "CO129-563-19 Sino-Japanese War- fund for relief of distress in China 5-10-1937 - 17-11-1937", "page_number": 17, "title": "CO129-563-19 Sino-Japanese War- fund for relief of distress in China 5-10-1937 - 17-11-1937", "content_text": "17 \n\n5th November 1937 \n\n**THE FUND FOR THE RELIEF OF DISTRESS IN CHINA** \n\nDear Lord Donoughmore, \n\nI was informed yesterday afternoon by Mr Bernard, who was informed by Major Abrahams of the British Red Cross Society, that the Lord Mayor disapproved of the decisions reached at the meeting of the Executive Committee on Wednesday last. \n\nSubsequently, I had telephone conversations with both Mr Hersee and with Mr Gamon, the Assistant Secretary and Secretary respectively of the Lord Mayor, and it was arranged that Mr Bernard and myself should see the Lord Mayor this morning at 10.15. \n\nThe Lord Mayor stated his objection which rests upon the ground that it is undesirable that the organisation constituted by the British Red Cross Society, the China Association and the Conference of British Missionary Societies should be controlled by any one of the three bodies concerned. Mr Bernard explained how and why the decision to use the China Association offices as the central office of the three bodies had been reached and the degree of control contemplated. The Lord Mayor, however, desires the institution of an office separate from and unconnected with any one of the three bodies. \n\nI write accordingly to ask you what you would like done and to put before you Mr Bernard's suggestion that he should convene a meeting of the Finance Sub-Committee, of which he is Chairman, with a view to seeing what suggestions can be put before the Executive Committee at its next meeting. \n\nI shall be very much obliged if you will kindly let me know your views. \n\nYours sincerely, \n\nHon.

A list of drugs and other medical material most urgently required was before the Sub-Committee and a letter had been addressed to a number of Firms in London asking for tenders for supplies. It would be possible to place orders and despatch goods very shortly.\n\n### CLOTHING SUB-COMMITTEE\nDame Rachel Crowdy reported that a Meeting of the Sub-Committee had been held the previous day. Lists of the type of goods most urgently needed were agreed upon and the necessity for a centre for sorting was very urgent. In this connection the Chairman said that he had not yet received a reply from the Duke of Westminster in regard to his request for the use of the building near 14, Grosvenor Crescent, and it was not likely that a reply would be received just yet. Dame Rachel Crowdy stated that with the permission of the Lord Mayor, 81, Gresham Street was a place where gifts in kind could be sent and this information had been sent to all enquirers. It was agreed that if negotiations with the Duke of Westminster came to nothing the Clothing Sub-Committee should have power to take a suitable building to act as a warehouse.\n\nDame Rachel Crowdy, continuing, said that the sub-committee was of opinion that as soon as this work was put on a sound basis it was necessary to appoint a Clothes Committee of which the members of the Sub-Committee should be members. Dame Rachel put forward the following names: Lady Gladstone, (Chairman), Mrs. Gull, Mrs. Gordon Lennox, Lady Hosie, Mrs. Byrne, Mrs. Paterson and Lady Salmon.

Round the stand of the British Air Ministry are grouped aircraft of various types, engines ranging in power from 50 to well over 1,000 horse-power, fuselages and accessories which together occupy more than one third of the entire exhibition space.\n\nSuch famous military machines as the Spitfire, the Hurricane, the Fairey and others are on view, and towering above them the Vickers Wellington bomber, a \"geodetic\" machine capable of a non-stop flight of 3,240 miles with full military load. The geodetic principle attains a minimum of structural weight with a maximum of strength by employing as a foundation for the fabric covering, a kind of basket work of light metal spirals, and the Vickers Wellington is the second of this type to be produced.\n\nThe first geodetic machine was the Wellesley, which set up a world record last autumn by flying non-stop from Egypt to Australia, a distance of over 7,000 miles. It is computed that the Wellington, specially prepared for an utmost-distance flight, could cover 10,000 miles before its fuel was exhausted. Even in military form its range is such that the greater part of the world could be covered from three strategic bases only, for instance Great Britain, Egypt and Australia.\n\nThe aircraft displayed in the R.A.F. section have been chosen to indicate the quality of both offensive and defensive types of aircraft in service in Great Britain.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-581-16 British propaganda in Hong Kong 18-4-1939 - 29-10-1939.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 568558, "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": "CO129-582-2 Vagrancy Amendment Ordinance 1939 1-5-1939 - 19-12-1939", "page_number": 3, "title": "CO129-582-2 Vagrancy Amendment Ordinance 1939 1-5-1939 - 19-12-1939", "content_text": "I appears to me had one or two points shd. be cleaned up type approval is sanctioned\n\nThe Gov. 12 parcel of states tal Pop 4 ex pours\n\nth CP & order any workless alien & have the Colony; 12 actual fact, as\n\nfor as Son\n\nLe can croir\n\nan workless pisson, he de an aver or a Britel sabad, I have\n\nThe Colon - to his\n\nis emergence, legislation third may Le some justification for the existence such power.\n\nJe para 291 th for so\n\nTo amend the ordinar law with a view & providing And work less destitutes can be craned & have & o. c-order I & Caird.

On October 2, in a narrow passage off High Island, near Canton, a mine exploded 10ft. away, stalling the generators and rendering steering uncontrollable. At 11 p.m. last Tuesday, in the Taishek Passage, a mine exploded under the bows, doing grave damage, and killing 17 and seriously wounding 18 of the 180 passengers. The scene of this outrage is only six miles below Canton, and little doubt is felt that it was the work of pirate extortioners.\n\nPage 66 \nPage 531 \nPage 13 \nAve Maple 4/534 \nMP W. I. J.

The reason (that we changed our minds) was because the \"Kwong Tung\" sought the assistance of the army and police forces and took patriotic precautions, thus indicating that she was acting in opposition to this corps and refusing to pay the small sum (demanded). It happened to be the last trip of that steamer and she was going into dock for repair after returning to Hongkong. Furthermore, apparently our notice was taken as an unimportant document and was therefore ignored. We originally intended to bomb her while en route, but for the sake of our countrymen and to give due consideration of God's love to all that lives, we did not want to destroy all people and articles on board. How could we bear to cause destruction to so many lives on account of such a small amount? It was for this reason that we waited until the vessel was alongside the wharf and all passengers had disembarked before we bombed her. She has no cause for complaint in regard to this incident, because we had served her with two notices before action was taken, and therefore we cannot be blamed for being cruel.\n\nIf your company also wishes to put us off by withholding your reply, your vessel will likewise be bombed. This time the explosion will be quite terrible: the whole ship will be entirely smashed up and the damage will be beyond repair, and you will see then that our words are not vain talks. The ... \"Kwongtung\" is a small vessel flying a foreign flag that has been made to suffer the calamity in place of your steamer. We have reserved some margin for the \"Wusueh\" seeing that she is a big ship and there are many human lives and goods on board. If, however, you do not meet our demand in full, your vessel will have no chance to get out also. Please make up your mind as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late for you to repent. Even if you should withdraw from the Canton/Hongkong run and the whole vessel is strongly guarded by troops and police, we would have our ways and means to carry out our work. If you do not believe our words, we invite you to watch how capable we are.\n\nAfter receipt of this letter, you should reply by inserting an advertisement in the `Kwok ah Po` on the 1st and 2nd April, or else our action will follow. You are requested not to take passengers so as to avoid loss to lives.\n\nYours faithfully,\n**3rd Note of warning by Tung Hing Corps**\n\nThe advertisement to be inserted in the `Kwok ah Po` should be as follows: –\n\n19\n## NOTICE OF BETROTHAL\n\n| | |\n| --- | --- |\n| \"Being agreeable both in taste and sentiment and having | obtained the consent of the heads of our respective families, |\n| \"we have decided to hold our betrothal ceremony in Canton on | the 4th instant.

KLONGTUNG APPREHENDED BY MIE CENTRAL ANEA DETECTIVE UNTA YESTERDAY\n\nThreatening letters sent to steamers several times - S.S. Kwongtung bombed by magnetic mine – One of the terrorists student of Chi Yung Middle School.\n\n(The Culture News Agency)\n\nDuring the month of March this year, there were terrorists, calling themselves TUNG HING TUÂN, who sent threatening letters to Hongkong/Canton S.S. Kwongtung, S.S. Kumueh, and S.S. Kwong Pook Cheung, demanding money. They tried to blackmail S.S. Kwongtung for HK$100,000 and from S.S. Kumueh, HK$150,000. These shipping companies, upon receiving the threatening letters, without delay reported to the British Consulate-General, Canton, the latter requesting the Canton Central Police to take action. The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Lai, accordingly instructed the Central Area Detective Unit to shadow these terrorists and to bring them back for trial.\n\nIn spite of the fact that the Commander of the Detective Unit, Chan Hon Sang, under the instruction of the Commissioner of Police, sent members of his unit to investigate these terrorists, considering that they possessed the technical knowledge of manufacturing mines and knew how to control them, showed no sign of fear, and kept on sending threatening letters to steamers, using at the same time telephone messages to the S.S. companies, pressing for payment and dictating that the companies' replies should at once be published in the local dailies, failing to get satisfactory replies, the terrorists in a sampan and deep in the night succeeded in placing a magnetic timed mine alongside S.S. Kwongtung, which exploded at 7 the next morning.\n\nThe Head of Police Detectives, Li Yin Leung, on learning that the terrorists have boldly indulged in more horrible activities, issued orders to the Central Detective Unit to detail their men en bloc to spread a net embracing all the hotels, tea-houses, boarding houses, theatres, and public parks in the City. Scientific ways of investigation were also employed, and after two weeks' labour, the movements of the terrorists have been shadowed.\n\nThen came the time for action: at 7 p.m. on the 7th instant (April), one of the terrorists, WONG LUN CHO (aged 14), nicknamed BIG HEAD CHO, when proceeding to To To Gue (a tea-house in Saikwan) to send a telephone message to the Wuauch S.S. Company, demanding with threats payment of money, was arrested by the detectives on the spot.\n\nThe second arrest was at No.36(A), Lan King Lane, Tai Ho Road, Saikwan, in a butcher shop, when the terrorist CHEUNG SHUN NUW (aged 13), nicknamed HIGH NOSE POH, was arrested.\n\nThe Commander of the Unit, Chen, leading his men, proceeded quietly in the evening to ING TAK breakwater, Cha Tau Village of Nam Hoi District, and succeeded in arresting Public Enemy No.1, YIP CHAU (aged #). Another two men, PANG TO and CHAN YAŬ, who harboured these outlaws, were also put under arrest at the same time. A rifle was also found in the place.\n\nAt noon the next morning, these three were brought back to the City.\n\nThe following statements were made by the Terrorists under interrogation:", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-613-7 Incidents against river steamers- S.S.

Although the dimensions of the two mid-ship ladderways were adequate for the number of persons carried, the people in the after portion of the tween decks were trapped as the seat of the fire was in the vicinity of both ladderways. Alternative avenues of escape would have minimised the loss of life, and whereas it is recognised that anti-piracy precautions may conflict with other safety measures, the importance of a good distribution of exits as well as their size, cannot be stressed too strongly. \n\n(2) The fire fighting arrangements were wanting in many respects.

Sai On, and to report further on the subject of the measures which have been taken to implement the recommendations of the Court of Enquiry. \n\n2. With regard to the proposal that there should be more efficient fire patrols especially during the hours of darkness, a considerable improvement is reported. On the two principal passenger vessels the s.s. Fat Shan and the s.s. Wusueh, one officer and four crew have been engaged, in addition to the normal complement, for fire-fighting duties. Continuous patrols are maintained day and night both in port and at sea. Extra fire-fighting equipment has been supplied; each of these vessels is now equipped with large sand boxes and shovels, four extra fire hoses are permanently connected and ready for use, and the number of fire extinguishers has been increased from 30 to 40. Other river steamers are similarly equipped with fire-fighting gear, although no extra crew has been engaged. \n\n3. The recommendations concerning stowage of cargo and berthing of passengers have also received attention. The present position on the s.s. Fatshan and s.s. Wusueh is that cargo and passenger stowage is so arranged that passengers between decks are not carried in any compartment where cargo is stowed, passengers and cargo being closer to the aft. \n\n**THE RIGHT HONOURABLE A.

You might go on to say that in the face of this common menace the Commissioner of Police in Hong Kong has been instructed to provide whatever assistance the Canton authorities may require and that so far as Hong Kong is concerned the closest cooperation between the police forces of the two cities would be most welcome. You could add that since the only ship to suffer damage in Canton so far is a British ship, the British authorities are particularly anxious to do everything in their power to assist in the detection of the criminals and to prevent, if possible, similar outrages in the future.\n\nThe Commissioner of Police \nBritish Consul-General, \nCANTON.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-613-7 Incidents against river steamers- S.S.

Copies of these letters were at once sent by me to the Canton Chief of Police, H.E. the Governor of Hongkong, and the Commissioner of Police, Hongkong, with a request that full protection be afforded.\n\n3.\n\nAt approximately 8 A.M. on 22nd March, when the `Kwangtung` was lying alongside her wharf in Canton, a bomb exploded, blowing a hole in her side and causing her to sink to the bottom (which fortunately was only in 12 feet of water at the time). No one was hurt. The second enclosure is an extract from the Captain's log.\n\nThe third enclosure is a warning letter of 12th March received by the British river steamer `Anshun`. This also I have copied in the same manner as the letters addressed to the `Kwangtung`. The `Anshun`, which is the property of Messrs. Butterfield & Swire, used to run on the Yangtze and is of approximately 1,200 gross tons.\n\nI have the honour to be,\n\nSir,\n\nYour Excellency's most obedient, humble servant,\n\nHis Majesty's Ambassador,\n\nBritish Embassy,\n\nNanking.\n\n(signed)\n\nfor Consul-General.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-613-7 Incidents against river steamers- S.S.

S. Company Limited, arrived in the Port of Victoria about Noon on the 2nd February, 1947, and berthed alongside the west side of the pier known as the Tung On Wharf where she lay starboard side to.\n\nThere is no doubt in our minds that she was properly equipped, manned and stored for the forthcoming voyage and that Robert Wherry was the Master of the vessel.\n\nThe \"Sai On\" was due to sail for Canton at 6.0 A.M. on the 4th February, 1947, and all loading of cargo was completed about Midnight on the 3rd-4th February, 1947.\n\nAlthough a few passengers could have embarked the previous evening, it can be accepted that general embarkation did not commence until about 3.0 A.M. on the 4th February, 1947.\n\nThe Master estimated the number of passengers, prospective passengers and friends on board at the time of the casualty to be about 300, and we have no reason to question this approximation. About 128 tickets were sold to berthed passengers of which possibly 100 were on board leaving roughly 200 berthed passengers in the 'tween deck space on the main deck.\n\nThe \"Sai On\" was carefully inspected by the Water Front Searching Unit from 3.0 A.M. to 3.25 A.M. on the 4th February, 1947, when normal conditions prevailed and nothing of a highly inflammable nature was discovered. Members of the Unit again visited the vessel at 4.15 A.M. and noticed no exceptional circumstances.\n\nAt 4.58 A.M. the Fire Brigade received a call to the \"Sai On\", and on arriving at 5.0 A.M. found the vessel burning fiercely abaft the engine room and the fire spreading with very unusual rapidity.\n\nThe fire was brought under control at about 7.0 A.M., but we note with very deep regret that the latest figures available show that 132...", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-613-7 Incidents against river steamers- S.S.

For these reasons we are fully agreed that the possibility of incendiarism cannot be ruled out.\n\nIt is our considered opinion that due to the particular arrangement of the cargo on that projected voyage, and the fact that the largest clear space for passengers was right aft, the fire occurred in the one place which would, by spreading, quickly and effectively cut off all easy exit from the vessel for both stairways to the deck above would be shut off in one to two minutes and access to No. 4 cargo port would become almost immediately impossible.\n\nThe fact that passengers endeavoured to collect their baggage would add to the congestion.\n\nWe have made a most careful investigation of the position with reference to grilles and cargo ports; and there is no doubt in our minds that all grilles in passenger spaces were open except those which are permanent fittings, and that the available exits were sufficient for the number of persons on the deck at the time. All cargo ports on the off or port side were closed and locked, but Nos. 2 and 4 on the wharf side were open.\n\nWe are satisfied that, even if all the cargo ports were closed, the means of exit by stairways were adequate and that satisfactory passageways had been left to these stairways.\n\nWe can offer no comment on the practice of closing the off cargo ports, but if No. 4 port on the port side had been open it is possible that a number of persons could have escaped by jumping into the harbour. We strongly deprecate the practice of carrying passengers on top of the cargo, and in this case we are convinced that the clear deck space was insufficient for the numbers of passengers on that deck at the time.\n\nWe are not prepared to accept passageways between cargo as clear space, and it was noted that provided no cargo is carried on the main deck a total of 1019 persons may be accommodated there with a reduction of one passenger for each 6 superficial feet occupied by cargo.\n\nWe fully appreciate the difficulties which follow a major war in", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-613-7 Incidents against river steamers- S.S.

This resulted in the deaths of not less than 150 persons, residents both of Hong Kong and of Canton and of other parts of China. It has been an added cause of pity and of sorrow to us all that the circumstances of this calamity were such that the relatives and friends of many of those who may have been involved in it have remained and in some cases still remain in anxiety and uncertainty as to the fate of those dear to them. I know that Honourable Members will wish expression to be given to our feelings on this lamentable catastrophe and I will ask you to rise to your feet and to assent in silence to the resolution which I will now put to the Council: \n\"It is resolved that this Council deplores the grievous loss of life which resulted from the outbreak of fire on the steamer \"Sai On\" on the 4th February and expresses its profound sympathy with the relatives and friends, both here and in China, of those who died in this disaster.\" \n\nThe Resolution was adopted, members standing in silence.", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-613-7 Incidents against river steamers- S.S.

Press Extract from \"Times\" See the map!\n\nI am sorry that owing to pressure of other work I have held this file up for so long. I have also held it up to get hold of other Hong Kong papers, notably those connected with the proposals for rehabilitation loan since I had heard that a considerable amount of expenditure proposed under that loan was of a developmental character. This proves in fact to be so, as a closer examination of the schedule at the back of the file indicates. If I recognise the manuscript notes on it correctly, the Treasury have picked out items totalling $2,000,000 which they feel should be more properly met from Hong Kong's Colonial Development and Welfare allocation than from the rehabilitation loan.\n\nI do not think it is possible to examine the schedule in detail since it is a bare catalogue of items but the fact that some of the expenditure there proposed may ultimately become a charge against Hong Kong's C. D. & W. allocation should be borne in mind.\n\nThe proposals in the despatch at (3) bear strongly the mark of Dr. Herklots and reflect his interest co-operation. I understand that Dr. Herklots wishes to leave Hong Kong shortly, and I think it is for consideration whether we should endorse proposals depending so largely upon a practical and successful policy of co-operation, so long as there is doubt about who will be present in the Colony to carry them to their conclusion.\n\nA number of the proposals put forward are of an economic nature and should properly be financed by loan than by grant. I do not like the suggestion which is made here and there that because a project is to be run by Government it should not make a profit. The profit motive is somewhat under a cloud in these times but the transfer of commercial concerns to Government ownership will mean decreasing revenue from taxation which must be replaced by profits from Government owned enterprises if revenue is to be found for Government social Services.\n\nMy comments on the individual items of the programme are as follows:-\n\n(1) Roads.

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

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