1 have given orders to have it ascertained whether there is any objection in the opening of a likin office at Samshuf. As regards your contention that the levy of likin within the limits of a Treaty port is entirely contrary to Treaty, I would observe that the Treaty only provides that, likin shall not be levied on foreign goods within settlement limits, cannot be said that the levy of likin outside the settlements upon goads not covered by Transit Pass is contrary to treaty,

Hongkong Chamber of Commerce, Hongkong, zail June, 1899, Sir, The Cuinmitice of this Chamber have for some time bit under consideration the growing evil.caused by the unchecked "indow into this Colony of subsidiary silver tokens issued in the Cantos lint. These coins are supplied at a discount ranging from 1 to 23 per cent, to speculators, who introduce them to the Colony, and, by the aid of Chinese shroffs, force them into circulation, to the almost total exclusion of the legal subsidiary currency (of which there is now a most ample supply), there by practically exploiting the colonial resonue, and causing serious loss and inconvenience to the inhabitants. I am therefore instructed to beg you to inform His Excellency the Governor that this Chamber considers the evil has attained such dimensions as to call for an effective remedy, and that steps should at once be taken to prevent the entry and circulation in the Colony of any foreign subsidiary coins...

The Committee would be obliged if you can furnish the Chamber with a copy of the Ordinance recently passed in the Straits Settle nients to exclude the Japanese silver yen from that Colony, and would like to be informed what measures were adopted to prevent the introduction of that coin fliere...

I went with our agent to interview the Commissioner of Customs with a view of asking him to reduce the fine, i was obliged to humble myself in a most derogatory manner. After a long talk we got him to reduce it to $5,000, which fine I think most antragenus. If the French Customs are going to impose fines upon foreign shipping in such an enormous amount, the sooner Saigon is boycotted the better, as it is a disgrace for the Republican Government to act in such a manner to foreign shipping which is the mainstay of the pait..

Colonel Mainwaring in responding thanked His Excellency for the kind manner in which he had spoken, but wished to acknowledge thu a great pan of the praise that had been so lavishly bestowed upon him rightfully belonged to the officers of the Corps for the able assist

ENCOURAGING RESULTAN

Early this morning, 17th, the Bunch of the new dredger for Penang Harbour, took place from the yard of the builders, the Petung Foundry Company. The machinery is now being reinoved from the temporary hull that has been at work for some months and has done excellent work; large quantities of the mud on the fore-shore having been removed, and a marked increase in the depth of water being shown at Weld Quay. This is realy boon to the shipping, and, later on as the work progresses, will allow of goods belag shipped and discharged by tongkangs or sampans at almost nny state of the tide. The sanitary condition of the town will be further safeguarded when the mud flats are always covered with
