We will therefore declare your premises infected, place a guard of police about your properly and allow no person or thing to leave the premises whatever is within shall remain within, and whorver may be withio ahall semain there, that he may not be the means of camping the con- taglon beyond your own premises.

cation:-
(Copy.)
House of Commons, London, 5th June, 1896,
My dear Mr. Whitehead,-1 enclose Mr. Chamberlain's reply to a letter which I addressed to him, not long ago, urgently pressing upon him the claims of Hongkong to a additional anofficial representation in the Legislative Cannell. I dwelt upon the xirong and general feeling of the colony on the subject, on the facts that the pre- dominance of the Crown was not endangered, that the object was solely to ensure the fullest representation of local opinion, and so forth, I also asked whether there was any record is the Department of Lord Ripon's undertaking to you with respect to the concession of at least one or two additional anofficial seats. Before you receive this the decision of Mr. Chamberlain will probably have been published. I send this to complete the correspondence.
"I trust the Minister's decision will be favourable You know how strongly I sympathize with the wish of the Colony, and how I have thrown my small influence throughout into the scale for you If I can do anything in the future (assuming that the decision is unfavourable), please let me know.
With best and kindest regards,
Very faithfully yours. (Sd.) J. HENNIKER WEATONĄ
