An article contributed by me to the Palriel last week was refused publication simply because I proposed to defend the gentleman now at the head of the local administration against the systematic an i simultaneous invectives with which both the papers are animated, thus creating a false and erroneous public opinion amongst the Portuguese there resident.

SEWERAGE AND DRAINAGE OF HONGKONG.

|

A flushing tank containing say 3,000 gallons should be constructed beneath the Parade Ground near to the urinal now under cos struction. This should be filled, daily during the dry season, from a well, or from the sea by pumping. In the case of a well, a centrifugal pump driven by an electric motor would prob. ably be the most economical means of pump- ing. Possibly the electric motor would, in all cases, be the most economical source of power, This fushing tank might indeed be filled with the sewage from the Peak. I am not, however, in favour of flushing sewers with sewage. The tank is apt to be a nuisance, as it requires occasional cleaning, but the system is often resorted to and might, if considered advisable,

tried.

The contents of this tank should be dis charged, alternately, down the two low-level sewers, a ra" pipe leading to each head, being provided. The flush should be discharged at or about low-water. The lowest of the two low-waters during the day should be selected, for one is often much lower than the oiler.

MR CHADWICK'S REPORT. At this aft roos meeting of the Legisla tive Council le report of Mr. Osbert Chadwick on the sewerage and drainage of Hongkong was laid on the table. It is dated the 13th May and in referring to the scope of the report, Mr. Chadwick states that, since the publica-be tion of a reput dated 18th April, 1992, I have made further enquiries concerning the sewer age and drainage of the City of Victoria, which, on the whole, tend in confirm the remarks and observations which I have made in the aforesaid report. In this report I accepted full responsibility for the general system of sewerage. In criticising it I am, therefore, Flushing cannot be effective until the outfall sitting in judgment on my own project.

As regards.

Sewers large enough to carry off rain-water would have only reccival during all these mouths the pal try quantity of sewage, which now flows, an amount wholly inadequate to flush such large pipes or conduit.

He cannot possibly supervise all the gangs of coolics, nor can he satisfy himself, by personal inspection, that the sewers of any one district or street are in such condition as to require dragging. Consequently gangs of coolies are told off to drag in a certain a strict, and they D so, whether this operation is required or not. I have suggested a means, whereby the inside of a sewer may be inspected by the aid of a lamp and mirrors, without going down the manhole. Whether this arrangement will materially mend matters or not the true remedy is more skilled supervision. ---

· FUMPING STATIONS.

It would be most expensive and almost im practicable to conduct all sewage to one pump. ing station. There must, therefore, be two intercepting sewers, with their respective heads near Murray Road, one flowing eastward and one flowing westward to two pumping stations. The ultimate outfall at which the sewage from the Eastern District should be discharged should be at North Point and that from the Western District in Sulphur Channel facing Green Island. I have already suggested in a Report of 1890 such an arrangement for the Eastern District. The syphon arrangement therein described would be most ecosomital, but an ordinary sewer, flowing partly full, would be most satisfactory though" probably considerably more expensive. I am leaving 'un record a plan and section of the copy at any

time it is considered desirable to carry it out.

I have brought forward the question of complete interc ption mainly because I con- templated the possibility of its having to be adopted in report made in 1800, and arranged As regards (c).

Returning to the immediate purport of this letter, I have to state that I have full con sciousness of having been guided by the dictates of duty and honesty and so acted satisfactorily to both Governments-the French and my own. In proof of my statement and just appreciation of the question, I append hereto translation of official documents. As P Portuguese I cannot endure to see the spirit that seeks to conceal under sophistical reasoning our laws, which are clear and liberal, and the ridiculous and unfounded fear of the French. If they were desirous of gaining hold over Macao, they would not certainly have found in the sanatorium ground for their aggression, above all under conditions which had been agreed upon to establish the same. As v.ce-consul for France it behoves me to testify to the pro- cedure of the French as always correct and loyal to the Portuguese Government and to dispel the fear of any sinister designs, or trea chery, unjustly attributed to the government of the noble and sympathetic Republic,

I would further remark, for the information of the Forvis, that when the question of the expropriation of the Bos Vista Hotel was dis- cussed by the Governor's Council, I said that in the same way as I had to recognise and affirm the right which any French subject possesses of acquiring leasehold property at Macao, so also could I not deny the right which the Government had of decreeing any resumption which seemed urgent and which public interests demanded, the more so when the Governor declared and affirmed that the expropriation was to convert the hotel into an hotel-sanatorium in which would be re-

ceived the convalescents of any nation, when Frenchmen and their families principally could avail themselves of the use of the institution,

Self praise apart, I would now add that at che farewell dinner given in honour of Gover- nor Conselheiro Ilona e Costa at the hotel sanatorium of Boa Vista as it was called, His Excellency, in proposing a toast to me as the president of the Senate, gave expression of the highest praise to the loyalty and correct mode of procedure that had been brought to bear on this ques ion and to the felicitous conduct of the matter whereby avoided the conflict of interests in the discharge of my various duties. I do not state this in self-praise, but as Bis Excellency declared it in presence of a large assembly consisting of the life of Macao, I thought might quote his speech in my defence to show that the allegation against me towards the nation lacks the foundation of fact.

Yours faithfully,

A. BASTO,

Government of Macao,

.No. 4,013. SIR-In reply to your despatch of yesterday, I hasten to inform you that the local authorities

It is now some time since the Government

of- Macao has had under consideration the founding of this institution which seemed of much convenience since various foreign guvern- ments have inanifested the desire, with the object above nientioned, of sending to Macao convalescents of their respective countries. Such a scheme bad also been thought of by various organisations at Macao, and the Provedor of the Santa Casa da Misericordia more than once already approached the present proprietor of the Hotel with a view to negotiate for its purchase. The Govemment, cannot therefore put aside the idea of the scheme whose realisation it was considering so that the interesis of all concerned may be conciliated. Your despatch, however, hastened the decision, since I believe that it will be a breach of good faith with the intending purchaser mentioned in your despatch under reply, if I were to agree to his purchasing of the building and immediately after the Government has to expropriate it in the exercise of its right and in conformity with Portuguese laws, thus possibly creating inconveniences and lasses which I desire only to avoid.

The scheme having been settled upon 1 trust that soon I may have the pleasure of informing you that this city is in possession of a building suited to the treatment of con valescents, which can be availed of by the subjects of the country which you so worthily represent in this Colony.—I have, &c.

Macao, 14th November, 1901. Sir, have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch of the 12th inst. in which, in reply to mine of the previous day, you inform me that foreigners can acquire immoveable property at Macas, according to civil laws, and at the same time you state the reasons which urged the expropriation, on that date, of the Boa Vista Hotel to serve as an hotel-sanatorium which will be open to con- valescents of all nations. Your Excellency added, in conclusion, that you hoped that soon you might have the pleasure of informing we that this city is in possession of a building suitable to the treatment of convalescents, and of

which French subjects ran avail themselves, While thanking Your Excellency for promptness of your reply, pernil me to state the following: Your Excellency is aware that the Government of the French Republic, for

the retention of her colonial dominions in the vast region of lado-China, finds itself bound to maintain a large number of civil and military officials, many of whom suffer in consequence of the caervating influence of the climate, render- ing it necessary for them to recuperate in a salubrious place, which up to now has been japan where the Republic has a sanatorium at its own. But now that the capital of Indo- China is to be changed to Hanoi, near Macao, it is very desirable that, the con valescents should, with saving of time and money, come to this city to recuperate their impaired health, this being the reason why M. Hardouin, consul for France at Canton, duly authorized, treated in private with your Excellency concerning the establishment of a sanatorium at Macao,

The Government in Lisbon, however,

thought that na foreign Government should be empowered to possess leasehold estate મા Macao, and M. Doumer, resigning himself to this decision, sought a solution of the matte that should not contravene that decision nor prejudice the rights of any party. The solu tion of the problem seemed to him to be the acquisition of a property in the name of a private individual, without any official status,

his to which its owner could receive, as guests, some convalescent fellow-country. men. The purport of my despatch of the zih inst. was for such an acquisition and not to contravene the laws of the country. And Your Excellency so far recognised the necessity of a sanatorium for foreigners that you thought that you should expropriate for that purpose the Boa Vista Hotel, and you had the goodness of informing me that is it would be received French Convalescents. But I much fear tha this building [Note.-The Hoa Vista Hotel has only 16 or 18 rooms], intended for convales cents and their families of every nation, has not sufficient accommodation for French sub- jects; and for this reason I beg to inform Your Excellency that Dr. Thoulon has in view to acquire in his own name a house at Macao, where he will receive a few convalescent Frenchmen observing, for this purpose. all the laws in force in this colony, To prove that in this there is no occult inten. tion nor the faintest, idea of offending against the territorial sovereigny (of Portugal) You Excellency can direct that the house of Dr Thoulon be under the control of the principal medical officer of Macao or of any other medica) officer who may be appointed resident surgeon.

If Your Excellency deem it expedient of necessary, 1 trust you will, submit the scheme, above mentioned to the Government in Lisbon, soliciting the approval thereof by telegrap seeing that it is the wish of the Governor- General of Indo-China to act always with fide of Macao cannot by any means place difficul.lity towards a friendly nation and not to eve ties in the way of any subject of whatever depart from the rules of (international) courtesy foreign nation from acquiring immoveable and from the lawe which guide us.-- I have etc.
