THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TMп FEBRUARY, 1903.

GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.-No. 56.

The following Report on the Queen's College, for the year 1902, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 6th February, 1903.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

REPORT ON THE QUEEN'S COLLEGE, FOR THE YEAR 1902.

No. 7.

QUEEN'S COLLEGE, HONGKONG, 19th January, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to present the Annual Report on Queen's College for the year 1902.

2. The total number on the Roll was 1,434, a slightly lower figure than in the previous year.

      This reduction is one of many indications of considerable im- provement in Attendance; for with fewer boys and with seven schoolday's less, there is actually an increase of 15,662 attendances in the course of the year. Again the number on Roll exceeded 1,000 in nine months and 1,100 in four, while the average daily attendance is 990. When it is remembered that in the summer, plague, cholera and dengue fever were prevalent, it must be admitted that a steady attendance under these conditions is highly commendable.

3. The fees were short of $30,000 by only $121. The cost of the College is enhanced by the fact that the fees of Free Scholars are not credited to this Department, though $216 is the annual cost of educating Student Interpreters for the Registrar General's Department, and $180 for the charitable education of children of Public Servants, which does not include the four Free Scholarships granted annually to encourage education in the Government District Schools of Saiyingpun, Wantsai, etc.

4. It is just five years since the services of Mr. J. W. JONES were first loaned to the Supreme Court for twelve months. It was therefore quite as much a matter of congratulation to the College as to Mr. JONES, when in October last the news of his permanent transfer to be Deputy Registrar, as from 7th June, 1901, reached the colony. No surprise can be excited at the decision of the Secretary of State, that in the future Educational Officers are not to hold acting appointments in other Departments. I venture however to express a hope, that this does not mean an absolute negation of the possibility of permanent transfer elsewhere. The experi- ence of the Government in the cases of Messrs. ARTHUR, JONES and WOODCOCK would appear to justify the conclusion that Assistant Masters are capable of performing excellent service elsewhere; and I maintain that the effect of such transfer on Queen's College is a salutary one; there being the stimulus to exertion with view to the recognition of the Government, and the infusion of new blood into the English staff, from time to time.

5. Once again we have at last ten English Masters. Mr. TANNER has been promoted to the Senior Grade. To fill the three vacancies amongst the Junior Assistant Masters, Mr. BIRD was appointed in October, Mr. CROOK arrived a few days ago, and Mr. HOLLIS is shortly expected. In addition to being University men of marked careers (Oxford and Dublin respectively) Messrs. BIRD and CROOK have had the advantage of practical experience as schoolmasters and will doubtless prove valuable acquisitions. Mr. DEALY last May went on leave for the second time in nineteen years' service.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

  6. The Report of the Education Committee recommends the appointment of an eleventh English Master, which appears necessary, there being now nearly 200 more boys daily receiving instruction than when ten English Masters were deemed sufficient.

  7. Mr. JAMES CHEONG, graduate of Melbourne University, who for more than three years did excellent and successful work as English Assistant Master, resigned at the end of August last on proceeding to Oxford. In April, Mr. WONG MING, 3rd Chinese Assistant, was loaned to the Magistracy for twelve months. In October, Mr. UN KAMWA, 4th Chinese Assistant, a useful and energetic Master, resigned to act as interpreter and translator to a local legal firm. The restitution of the full complement on the English staff will terminate the excessive strain thrown, during the last few years, on the Chinese staff by temporary promotions and appointments; though I cannot withhold from these young men, especially the Acting Pupil Teachers, the well deserved meed of praise for their cheerful energy in the discharge of their difficult duties.

  8. The desire of the Government to promote and encourage greater attention to the study of Chinese amongst natives and English alike, has not been without its effect on this College. Several Chinese Assistants formed themeslves into a class, and at their own cost engaged a Native Teacher chiefly for improvement in style. Mr. BIRD has begun the study of Chinese. Though I do not think that the knowledge of Chinese, written and spoken, should as formerly be obligatory on all masters; there can be no doubt that even a small acquaintance with the language of the boys is desirable to maintain the proper efficiency and discipline of the College.

  9. Messrs. RALPHS, GRANT and TANNER deserve warm congratulations upon the excellent results at the Oxford Local Examinations held last July. Twenty certificates were obtained by Queen's College boys; 3 Senior, 6 Junior and 11 Preliminary. The mark G, next in order to distinction was obtained no less than 16 times chiefly in Arithmetic and History. I am glad to note that Chinese boys are again coming to the fore, both in position and number of passes.

  10. The good results at the Half-yearly Examination (a practice instituted by myself in 1882) led me to anticipate satisfactory improvement at the close of the year, and I feel justified in saying that I have not been disappointed.

  11. Messrs. Ross and Krrro, appointed Independent Examiners of the Upper School, made a separate Report. I would beg leave, on behalf of masters and boys, to express our sense of the kindness and consideration shown by the Examiners.

  12. The examination of the Lower and the Preparatory Schools was conducted by myself, under Standing Orders from the Governing Body. The whole tone of the examination is higher than that of the previous year; the improvement being chiefly attributable to greater regularity in attendance, as reported above. With the exception of the Grammar paper in the three sections of Class IV, there was absolutely none of the provoking practice of inserting silly or irrelevant informa- tion. No further comment upon the Summary and Table below is needed than the statement that the Lower School has distinguished itself by marked general improve- ment; and the Preparatory School, taught by Acting Pupil Teachers, under the charge of a Senior Pupil Teacher, has maintained its usual high-level.

13. Observations on individual subjects :-

Reading. Though few failures occurred, it was rare to be able to assign marks higher than 80%. I make a point of treating most severely the mispronunciation of common words.

Conversation.-As usual, the percentage of passes is low. I applied a

slightly higher standard of intelligence.

Dictation.-Very good, especially the writing.

Arithmetic.-A very marked improvement on the results of recent years. A large number of boys successfully tackled the usual sort of problems. The work was neat, and less crowded into out-of-the-way corners.

Grammar. Very satisfactory, with the exception of one class. The masters of the three sections of Class IV admitted the questions to be fair, if not actually easy, yet the fact remains that the great bulk of the boys failed to get 50% marks. Knowing from personal observa- tion that those masters taught this subject very carefully, I can only conclude that they had been paying more particular attention to other details.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

Geography.Good. I expected that more boys would have been ac- quainted in Class IV with the draining operations of the Emperor U, and in Class V with the diurnal and annual motions of the earth.

Map-drawing from memory.--Excellent.

The maps of Hongkong, Africa and the 18 provinces of China that obtained over 80% marks were wonderful specimens of handiwork, and feats of memory.

Composition.-Very good indeed, the employment of suitable phrases, not

dictated by me, was very successful and praiseworthy.

Chinese to English.-Satisfactory. More boys made laudable attempts to translate the unseen piece that formed the fifth question in each

paper.

English to Chinese. This subject was, as usual, marked by the Second Master (Mr. A. J. MAY) who found himself able to award a very large proportion of high marks.

14. The following is a complete list of the Scholarships, all locally promoted and maintained without any assistance from the Government:-Morrison Senior and Junior Scholarships each tenable for three years, Stewart Scholarships for one year, Belilios Senior and Junior Scholarships each tenable for two years.

15. The non-Chinese boys past and present, assisted by the friends of the late Mr. W. MACHELL, have raised a small sum to endow a Special Prize in memory of his devoted zeal in behalf of the interests of the Senior non-Chinese Class. In spite of the handsome allowance for Prizes from the Government, we should be poorly off to provide recognition for our sixty scholars deserving of distinction, were it not for the generous beneficence of the public. The following is a list of the present contributors:-The Consul General for Portugal, Messrs. ARCULLI and DORABJEE NOWROJEE; Messrs. CHAN HE-WAN, CHAU PAK-CHEUN, HO FOOK, Ho KOM-TONG, HO TUNG, IP SHIU-KAM, KÓ YIK-KAM, LAU CHÁK-MIN, LEUNG YAN-PO Lo CHEUNG-SHIU, LO TÁT, LUK KING-FO, MOK MAN-CHEUNG, NG KWOK-CHING, SIN TAK-FAN, TSOI LAP-TSZ, U HANG-KAM, WONG KAM-FUK, YING HING-PONG, YING SHIU-PO, the Directors of the Tung Wa Hospital Messrs.

The following Directions and Scale of Fees for Bacteriological Examinations of doubtful cases of Plague and Cholera, at the Government Bacteriological Department, are published.

By Command,

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 20th February, 1903.

THE Bacteriological Examination of doubtful cases of Plague and Cholera, and of material suspected to be infected with the causative agents of these diseases, will be undertaken for the General Public, under the general conditions published in Government Notification No. 644 of 1902.

GENERAL DIRECTIONS AS TO THE METHODS TO BE ADOPTED IN PROCURING SUITABLE SPECIMENS FOR THE DEMONSTRATION OF THE CAUSATIVE AGENTS OF PLAGUE AND CHOLERA.

1.-The greatest care is to be exercised in procuring such material for bacteriological examination. 2.-The strictest antiseptic precautions are to be observed in every case.

3. In forwarding such infective material to the Bacteriological Department, it should be pro- perly protected in such packet which allows of no breakage or infection being conveyed from it to the outside world.

4. Such highly infective material should never be sent by post, but delivered to the Bacteriolo-

gical Laboratory by some intelligent and thoroughly trustworthy messenger.

5. Exact details as to the source of the specimens and the nature of the examination required

should be forwarded to the Government Bacteriologist, at the same time.

6.-It is highly important to mark the material forwarded as "URGENT," as the postponement of

the examination might vitiate an otherwise important result.

PLAGUE.

METHODS TO BE ADOPTED IN THE PREPARATION OF SPECIMENS FOR EXAMINATION.

Pestis Bubonica.

1. The skin immediately over the bubo must be thoroughly disinfected.

2. The needle, which is to be used for aspirating part of the contents of the bubo, must

be sterilised in oil or water.

3. The aspirating needle must be driven well into the bubo, and then considerable suction

power used, in order that as much of the bubonic contents as possible be withdrawn. 4. Where practicable, bacteriological cultures on nutrient media should be made immediately. 5. Several smears of the extracted material should then be made on microscopic glass slides,

fixed by means of heat, and stained at once.

6. Immediately subsequent to the withdrawal of the bubonic contents, the parts should be

thoroughly disinfected and protected.

7. All apparatus used in connection with the operation should be boiled in water 10 minutes,

or otherwise disinfected or destroyed.

Pestis Pneumonica.

1. The greatest care is to be exercised in dealing with the sputum expectorated by indivi-

duals suffering from this disease.

2. The sputum which is forwarded for examination must be absolutely fresh.

3. It must be sent in a sterilised receptacle.

4. No antiseptic is to be added to the sputum previous to its being forwarded for examination.

5. In all cases several microscopic slide preparations ought to be made at the bedside, and

these in addition to the sputum forwarded for examination.

Pestis Septicæmica.

     Such an examination is undertaken in a somewhat similar fashion as already described under "Pestis Bubonica." For fuller information, reference ought to be made to the Bacteriological Exami- nation of Blood as described in Government Notification No. 644 of 1902.

128

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

The Government Bacteriologist is prepared to undertake the examination of animals-sick or dead-supposed to be suffering from Plague, or having symptoms resembling Plague. In such cases, the animals in question must be forwarded to the Government Public Mortuary.

The General Directions detailed in this notification must be thoroughly attended to.

   All other material supposed to be infected with Plague and supposed to be requiring bacteriologi- cal confirmation, will necessitate such information being conveyed, as soon as possible, to the Govenment Bacteriologist, so that he may take the steps which appear to be necessary.

CHOLERA.

METHODS TO BE ADOPTED IN THE PREPARATION OF SPECIMENS FOR EXAMINATION.

Cholera in Man.

1. All suspicious cases ought to be examined bacteriologically, as many cases of true Asiatic

Cholera cannot be differentiated from those of Cholera Nostras.

2. The examination ought to be requisitioned for immediately suspicion is aroused.

3. Simple microscopic examination of the alvine dejections ought to be made by the attend- ant in charge of the case, in order to satisfy himself that there is sufficient ground for more detailed investigation.

4. If comma-shaped organisms are found in the dejections, the diagnosis of cholera is not complete, and the Bacteriological Department ought to be asked to make a thorough examination. This applies only to those suspected cases occurring either isolated or at the commencement of a possible epidemic.

5. The dejections sent for examination must be absolutely fresh.

6. They must be sent in a sterilised test tube.

7. Not a larger quantity than 20 c. c. of the fluid and flaky dejections may be sent.

8. No antiseptic is to be added to the specimen.

9. In all cases several microscopic slide preparations ought to be made at the bedside from recently evacuated dejecta, and these should accompany the material which is forwarded for examination.

10. The following details in regard to the case ought to accompany each specimen :

(.) Name of patient.

(b.) Address of patient.

(c.) Date and hour at which specimen was evacuated by the patient.

(d.) The approximate amount of dejecta evacuated by patient per hour.

e.) The colour, appearance, consistence, smell and reaction of the dejecta. () Report as to the addition of antiseptics to the dejecta.

Cholera in Water.

When such an examination is required, the Government Bacteriologist is to be informed, so that he may take the necessary steps to have a suitable quantity of water collected for his examination.

DRAINAGE.

Preliminary Explanatory Notes to Bye-Laws.

A. The following notes convey, in general terms, the principles that should guide the design and construction of house-drains. Before proceeding to lay down in detail the instructions which should be attended to, in order to apply the same satisfactorily, it must be observed that no code of instructions can possibly embrace every case that will occur. It must be remembered that no system of house-drainage that has yet been devised, or probably will ever be devised, does away with the necessity for care in use. The real re- medy for the inconveniences which are too often experienced from house-drains lies, not in any elaboration of appliances, but in careful construction, careful use, and a reasonably liberal water supply. Without the co-operation of the public. the Sanitary Authority is almost powerless to effect improvement. It is therefore to be hoped that the public will assist, by insisting on good construction and the proper use of house-drains.

B. The object of a house-drain is to carry off. from the dwelling to the street-sewer, water fouled by use, together with all the solid or semi-solid refuse which is usually associated therewith, such as refuse from cooking and the like; in short, the foul liquid usually known as sewage or sullage-water.

The house-drain must be self-cleansing." The sewage as produced in the daily life of the inmates must flow through the drain with a current sufficiently rapid to sweep along with it all suspend- ed matter, so that no permanent deposit can take place. A drain in which deposit takes place is a cesspool in disguise. from which offensive emanations find their way into the dwelling; and from which putrid sewage flows into the street-sewers, making them ex- ceedingly offensive, A badly constructed or badly kept house-drain is, therefore, not only a source of danger to the inmates of the house that it drains, but a public nuisance also. Unless house-drains are well made and properly used, no system of street-sewers, however perfect, can work in a satisfactory manner.

D. Water being the agent which cleanses the house drains, its liberal use by the inmates of the dwelling is essential to the proper maintenance of house-drains. The sew.ge must be well diluted. Nevertheless the quantity of water necessary for the proper cleansing of house-drains is not excessive. The water normally used by the inmates of a dwelling for washing and cooking is sufficient for this purpose, provided that it is readily obtainable at all times, either in the dwelling or in close proximity thereto,

E. The principal point to be attended to, in the design of house- drains, is so to arrange matters that the sewage, as produced, shall flow through them in the most rapid current practicable; so that all suspended matter shall be swept away at once and completely.

F. The speed of a stream flowing through a pipe or channel, of given size and shape, depends upon the following conditions : (a) The inclination of the chaunel. (b) The smoothness of its surface. (e) The volume of the stream.

The steeper the slope and the smoother the sides of the channel, the swifter will be the current. The greater the volume of the stream, inclination being the same, the greater the speed.

--

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

Thus if a 12′′ and a 3" pipe have the same inclination the velocity in the 12" pipe would be about twice as great as in the "pipe, pro- vided that both were half full. But to fill the two pipes to this extent, the quantity of water passing through the 12′′ pipe would be about thirty-two times that passing through the 3" pipe. But if the same quantity flowed through both pipes, then the current in the 3" pipe, being more concentrated, would flow more rapidly than that in the partially filled 12′′ pipe.

6. These considerations would lead to the conclusion that the best size, to be used for any house-drain, would be that which would just suffice to carry off the sewage with the pipe not less than half full. Within certain limitations, this is the case.

II. In the case of street-sewers draining large districts, from which the flow of sewage is comparatively regular and capable of estimation, the proper size of sewer may be calculated with some approach to precision. In the case of house-drains, however, such precision is impracticable. The rate of flow is irregular and the quantity of sewage depends upon the habits of the inmates. Were the size of a house-drain calculated to carry off even a most liberal water supply, which is, for practical purposes, the measure of the sewage, it would be found, in the vast majority of cases, to be much less than that which experience has shewn to be applicable in practice It has been found that a house-drain less than a certain size is inconveniently liable to stoppages, caused by extraneous matters, such as rags, paper and the like, which occasionally find their way into the best managed house-drains.

I. The minimum size of house-drain is usually fixed at from four to six inches in diameter. A four-inch drain, constructed in the usual manner, is probably somewhat small as a minimum; avla six-inch somewhat large. A diameter of five inches, were this size readily obtainable, would be a better minimum.

J. Whenever the minimum size will suffice it should be used. Indeed, subject to the limit laid down in the preceding paragraph, and to certain conditions to be set forth later on, the smaller the house-drain the better. The use of unnecessarily large house-drains amounts to au abandonment of the self-cleansing principle. If a drain is so large that the normal flow of sewage cannot fill it to a sufficient depth to establish a self-cleansing velocity, deposit takes place and goes on, either till the pipe is choked and the sewage escapes, through leaks, to the sub-soil, or until the deposit has accumulated sufficiently to reduce the area of the sewage-way to that which will establish a current sufficiently rapid to prevent further deposit.

K. In order that the size of house-drains may be reduced to the minimum practicable, in each instance. rain-water should be ex- cluded from them as far as possible. Rain-water cannot, however, be wholly excluded from house-drains. Many uncovered surfaces, such as back-yards, receive slops and foul-water in the course of daily use and this must be carried off by the house-drains. A dupli- cate set of drains for such areas, one for sewage and the other for rain-water, would be a costly complication and there would be no security that each set would be used for its proper purpose only. Some sewage would almost inevitably find its way into the rain- water drain, which, being of large size, would be imperfectly flushed and therefore offensive.

L. Rain-water should be diverted from house-drains to the full extent that is possible by the use of surface-channels As a general rule, when surface-channels cannot be used to divert rain-water, it must be admitted to the house-drain. Hence, in the majority of cases, the amount of rain-water to be carried off determines the size of the house-drain. In providing for the removal of rain-fail. from a given surface, it is to be remembered that it is not sufficient to provide a pipe of ample size to carry off the rain-fall. Traps and gratings must be provided in sufficient numbers and of sizes to admit the rain-water freely to the drain and the surface must have a fall to carry it to the openings. In many cases neglect of these precautions has caused flooding. This has been put down to the size of the pipes. wilereas the inlets were really at fault.

Rain-water cannot be lookod upon as a legitimate agent for cleansing house-drains from deposit. First y, there should be no deposit to remove from well constructed and properly managed drains; and secondly, because there are long intervals in which no rain falls so that this flushing agent fails when most wanted.

3. The irregularity and uncertainty of the flow of sewage, which precludes an accurate determination of size, makes it impracticable to calculate definitely the proper inclination of house-drains, Ex- perience shews that, under the normal conditions of use, an inclina- tion of one in thirty is desirable to ensure a self-cle using drain: especially when the drain conveys the sewege from a single trap or inlet. An inclination of one in thirty, therefore, should, as a rule. be given to honse-drains, Dr ins laid at much flatter gradients can be made to work perfectly, with e re provided that the flow of sewage is copious. ¿e., sufficient to fill the pipe nearly half full. The designer of house-trains, having no control over their subsequent usage, will do well to give them, in every case, the greatest practic- able fall.

N. The ordinar" "trap" or syphon is not a perfect preventive against the escape of sewage-tained air from house-drains, although it is the only appliance available for the purpose. The wa'er which scals the trap may evaporate during disuse, or a piece of fibrous matter may act like a syphon and draw off the water sufficiently to leave a free passage for the escape of sewage-tainted air. Again. if there be a series of inlets connected to a drain which is unprovide: w-th any free outlets, a sudden rush of water through one trap will force the air contained in the drain through the other traps or inseal them by drawing off their contents, and open a passage for the escape of sewage-tainted air into the dwelling, or int some confined space in

be its neighbourhood. Consequently, house-drains must lated," or rather provided with vents, to prevent the accumulation of sewage-tained air therein, and to secure the efficiency of the traps. "To effect this thoroughly, the drain must have, at or near its extre-

mities, openings giving a free escape to the air within it, and between these openings, there should be no trap or other obstruction to the free passage of air.

These ventilating openingsshould be so placed that any sewage- tainted air which may escape from them shall be as little offensive as possible. With this object the inner ventilating opening should be placed above the roof of the dwelling. This is usually done by carry- ing up a pipe, having a free opening at the top, above the roof and at a distance from any window. The second opening is usually made on the house-side of the trap which severs the direct communication between the drain and the public sewer. If, however, there be no trap between the house-drain and the sewer then there is no necessity for a second opening, the sewer itself serving the purpose. With a well constructed system of self-cleansing street-sewers this arrangement may be adopted with safety, even with advantage. Then every house-drain ventilator serves as a sewer ventilator also; and when this is done universally, no accumulation of sewer-tainted air can take place in any part of the system.

P. Care must be taken in selecting the position of the lower ven- tilating opening because the elevated ventilating pipe by no means secures a permanent upward current of air. According to the relative temperature of the air within and without the drain, to the direction and force of the wind, so an upward or downward current will obtain ̧ Q. Complete ventilation is especially important when any part of the house-drain system is in communication with the interior of the dwelling; or where the system is extensive and has numerous inlets. It is essentid where water-closets are used, or where the drains receive excrementitious matter. In the case of a short length of drain, leading from a single inlet, placed in an open space, such as a back-yard, thongh desirable. it is less necessary and may be omitted without serious danger.

R. Any direct communication between the interior of the house and the house-drain should be avoided. Pipes carrying water from baths or sinks, within the dwelling, should therefore deliver their effluent above trapped gulleys in the open air. The effluent from baths or sinks, on upper storeys should, whenever practicable, be received by open-topped pipes, delivering freely above trapped gulleys at or a little below the ground-level. If, s in the case of water-closets, a direct communication has to be made between a fitting inside the house and the drain, then there must be complete ventilation by means of a pipe carried up outside and to the top of the building.

Drainage Bye-laws.

1. Any owner or occupier of private premises about to construct, re-construct, alter or amend any drain shall give at least seven days' previous written notice of such intention to the Board, and such notice shall be delivered at the office of the Board, in a form of which printed blank copies may be obtained gratis in English and Chinese on application at the office of the Board, or, in the case of the villages, at any village Police Station between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

2. Every such notice shall specify the name of the street, the num- ber of the lot and the number of the house, if any, which it is intend- ed to drain, and shall be accompanied by a plan of the premises drawn on a scale of not less than twenty feet to the inch, and such plan must show the whole of the drains with their proposed sizes figured thereon, and a section or sections showing the proposed falls or inclination and drawn to the same scale and to a vertical scale of not less than ten feet to the inch. The plan must also show the position and course of all proposed surface gutters.

Except that in case of suburban lots which cannot be conveniently included within a plan of ordinary dimensions, the lot and the out- fall drain may be shown on a scale of not less than one hundred feet

to the inch.

3. Within seven days after receipt of the notice, the sanitary surveyor shall, by means of a written communication, in English or Chinese as may be necessary, inform the person who has given the said notice whether his designs and proposed mode of construction are approved or disapproved, and in case of disapproval such modi- fications or improvements as may be requisite in order to comply with the provisions of The Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, and of any bye-laws made thereunder shall be indicated in detail to such person by the sanitary surveyor, and it shall not be lawful for such person to commence the drainage works until the approval thereof by the sanitary surveyor shall have been previously obtained by him, and in the case of such approval the plan shall be filed in the office of the sanitary surveyor.

NOTE. The approval of plans by the sanitary surveyor under this bye-law certifies simply to the fact that the plans are in accordance with the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance and with the bye-laws made thereunder, but signifies to approval of the sufficiency or otherwise of the plan and throws no responsibility on

the Board.

4. Any person carrying out excavations for drainage works on any premises contiguous to a public thoroughfare, whereby the safety of the public may be jeopardized, shall light such excavations by means of a lantern or lanterns kept lighted through the night, and he shall further provide watchmen, erect hoardings and otherwise take such precautions as may be necessary for securing the safety of the public and the protection of adjoining properties.

5. House-drains shall be made of impervious materials with smooth internal surfaces, such as well glazed earthen-ware pipes or cast-iron pipes protected against rust or corrosion by suitable asphal- tic coating. The drains shall be so constructed as to be water and air-tight. In jointing pipes with cement, tarred-hemp shall be caulk- ed into the joint before the cement is applied, and care shall be taken that no cement or other jointing material projects from the joints into the interior of the pipes; and any such projecting material or other irregularities in the bore of the drain shall be carefully removed. 6. House-drains shall be firmly bedded in selected material free from large stones and well rammed into place.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

7. All stoneware pipes shall be well glazed and free from cracks and flaws and shall have a thickness of not less than one-twelfth of their diameter.

8. Disconnecting chambers shall be red brick manholes fitted with stoneware traps and ventilating grates of iron or stone.

9. Lime mortar used for the building of manholes shall be com- posed of three parts of sand or red earth and one part of good lime.

10. Lime concrete used for encasing drains shall be composed of four parts of good sound clean stone, broken to half inch cubes, two parts of red or yellow earth and one part of lime thoroughly well mixed and well rammed into place.

II. Cement mortar used for the jointing of pipes or any other work shall be mixed in the proportions of three parts of clean sharp sand and one part of good Portland cement and used fresh.

12. No main house-drain shall be less than six inches in clear internal diameter.

13. Subject to the limitation mentioned in the preceding bye-law, no main house-drain shall be larger than is necessary in the opinion of the Board to carry off the sewage of the dwelling, or the sewage with the rain-water, which, under conditions hereinafter specified in Nos. 37, 38, 39 and 40 of these bye-laws shall be admitted to the house-drain.

14. Every house-drain shall have the maximum fall, throughout its length, that the relative levels of the public sewer and of the most remote inlet, will admit of:

Provided always--

(a) That the maximum available fall does not exceed one in thirty (or 4 inches in 10 feet). If it does, then the part of the drain, more remote from the public sewer, may be laid with a fall of one in thirty; and the remainder, with such greater fall as may be necessary to connect with the pub- lic sewer.

(b) That the excavation, necessary to obtain the maximum avail- able fall, is not of such a nature as to endanger the sta- bility of the adjoining or neighbouring property.

In these and similar cases the gradient may be reduced subject to the approval of the Board.

15. Whenever a reduction of fall (below the standard grade 1 in 30) is necessary or permissible, it shall, wherever practicable, be made in the portion of the drain nearest to the outlet, rather than in the part nearest to the inlet, and in the main trunk of the drain rather than in the branches.

NOTE. The available fall in a house-drain, 100 feet long, is 2 feet 6 inches or one in forty. It will be better to make the first thirty feet from the inlet, with a fall of 1 foot, or 1 in 30; and th remaining length of 70 feet with a fall of 1 in 46.66, than give an uniform fall throughout.

It is clear that an obstruction at 4 would be more easily removed than one at B, in the pipe of uniform gradient, because it would have a greater head of water behind it ; and in flowing from the inlet to it, the stream will have attained a certain momentum, tending to carry it on, through the flatter part of the pipe.

16. Whenever the gradient of any portion of a drain is less than one in thirty, the Board may in its discretion require an automatic flush tank or any other suitable contrivance for attaining an effective flush to be used.

17. All changes of direction in house-drains shall be made by means of properly curved pipes or by half channels in manholes and between the points at which any change of direction occurs, all house- drains shall be laid in straight lines and regular grades from point to point.

NOTE.--(Inasmuch as changes of direction are the points at which obstructions most frequently occur, and for the purpose of removing obstructions generady, house holders will do well to provide, at each change of direction, a manhole, giving access to the drain. For this purpose the manhole should be made 3 feet by 1 foot 6 inches to the surface or to a depth of five feet above the drain. Beyond this depth the But such manhole manhole may be narrowed to 1 foot 6 inches by 1 foot 6 inches. should not be found in cook-houses or in places where they may be opened and used as receptacles for the disposal of solid rubbish.)

18. No drain shall be so constructed as to pass under any domestic building except when any other mode of construction is impractic- able. Any drain passing under a building shall be of cast iron coated inside with Dr. Angus Smith's patent composition or other material approved of by the Board and all such pipes shall be of a quality to be approved by the Board and the joints shall be properly caulked and run with lead, and (unless the written permission of the Board has first been obtained to lay it otherwise) shall be laid in one straight line for the whole distance beneath such building, and shall be imbedded and incased throughout its entire length in four inches. of good concrete.

Whenever a drain traverses soft or yielding ground, or where water may make its appearance in the trench, the drain shall be surrounded throughout its entire length with four inches of good concrete.

The stones composing the matrix of the concrete in both cases shall be of a size to pass through a half-inch ring.

19. No drain shall be constructed in such manner as to allow any inlet to such drain to be placed inside any building.

20. The aggregate area of the openings in any grating fixed on inlets to waste-pipes from baths or sinks shall not be less than four square inches and the waste-pipe shall not have a less internal dia- meter than 1 inches.

NOTE--The object of this is to secure an efficient flush.

21. Traps or gulleys for the removal of rain-water shall be pro- vided with gratings having the nett area of the openings not less than twice the area of the trap or pipe. Such gratings shall be sunk to a depth of at least one inch below the surrounding pavement, with a slope round them equal to half the width of the grating.

NOTE. It is not sufficient to provide pipes of ample diameter; there must be open- ings of sufficient size to admit the rain to them.

22. Traps at the inlets to drains shall be placed so that the water- level in them is not less than one foot below the ground, and such traps shall be placed as low down as the level of the house-drain or branch will permit of; provided that the depth be not more than two feet.

23. Traps shall have not less than two inches of water seal and shall be securely fixed to the drain. All stoneware traps shall be surrounded with a thickness of four inches of lime concrete.

24. No person shall construct or fix in connection with any drain or waste-pipe the form of trap of the kind known as the Bell- trap or any trap of the kind known as the D trap, and all traps connected with any private drains shall be properly jointed in cement mortar to the satisfaction of the Board.

NOTE.--Bell-traps and D traps from their form give rise to deposit of filth difficult to remove by flushing.

25. Every main house-drain shall be ventilated at its upper end by carrying up an iron ventilating pipe of a diameter of not less than four inches to a height of not less than three feet above the eaves of the building, and clear of all windows, skylights or other openings. The joints of all such pipes shall be properly caulked and run with lead.

26. Every main house-drain shall have a ventilating opening near to its lower end, and no trap or other obstruction to the free circula- tion of air shall exist between this opening and the one described in the preceding bye-law.

If there be a trap between the house-drain and the public sewer, then an opening shall be made on the house-side of the trap, and the said opening shall be so arranged as to give access to the trap for inspection, cleansing or repair.

If there be no trap between the public sewer and the house-drain no special opening need be provided at the lower end.

27. Drains leading from a single trap and not being more than sixty feet long, need not be provided with a ventilating pipe at their upper end unless such drains are laid, partly or wholly, under a building; but, if this be omitted, they shall be provided with a trap, disconnecting them from the public sewer, and shall have a ventilating opening at the lower end on the house-side of the trap.

28. Rain-water pipes and waste-pipes from baths, sinks and other similar appliances on the upper floors of buildings shall be of cast iron socketted pipes jointed with cement, or wrought iron pipes, with screwed joints, coated with bituminous composition, or galvanised, or of well glazed stoneware socketted pipes, or other approved ma- terials, securely fixed outside the wall, by means of wrought iron bands fitted round the pipe, or in the case of iron pipes by means of ears, made fast with wrought iron spikes not less than four inches long, and provided, at each point of connection, with a suitable head, and at their lower extremity with a bend, shoe or pedestal pipe and every opening in the wall of a building for the discharge of sullage water shall be provided with a fixed grating to the satisfaction of the Board.

Provided that in the case of rain-water pipes and waste-pipes abut- ting on any street, cast or wrought iron pipes only shall be used, properly jointed as above described, (unless permission has been granted by the Board to use pipes of other material), and wherever

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

practicable rain-water pipes shall be carried under the foot-path and discharge into the side channel. All joints of stoneware pipes shall be made in the manner provided by No. 5 of these bye-laws.

NOTE.-Zine, tin-plate, ivetted or lap-jointed sheet-iron will not be approved.

29. Waste-pipes, as well as down-pipes from roofs, shall not be connected direct with any drain but shall discharge in the open air near to or over a trap and they shall be brought down to within one foot or less from the ground.

30. No rain water-pipe from the roof of a building shall be used as a ventilating shaft to any drain which communicates or is designed to communicate with a public sewer.

NOTE.--Rain-water pipes terminate at the eaves of the house a point not high enough above windows to be a safe ventilating cutlet.

31. Any person who may have laid any drain or constructed drainage works connected therewith shall not cover up such drain or works until the same shall have been previously inspected and passed by the sanitary surveyor and such person shall give three clear days' written notice to the Board that such drain or works are ready for inspection, and such notice shall be delivered at the office of the Board in a form of which printed blank copies may be obtained gratis in English and Chinese on application at the office of the Board, in the case of villages, at any village Police Station between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

or,

32. Before any drain is covered in, it shall be inspected and tested by the sanitary surveyor to ascertain whether it is water and air-tight; and no drain that fails in this respect shall be passed. A fine of ten dollars shall be paid for every inspection after the first if the Board is satisfied that such further inspection has been necessitated by the negligence of the contractor or by bad workmanship or the use of improper materials. After a drain has been passed, the earth shall be carefully filled in, above and around the drain, and thoroughly rammed and consolidated. For a depth of at least six inches, above the summit of the sockets of the pipe, selected material, free from stones larger than will pass through a 2-inch ring, shall be used in filling in the trench.

33. The floors of cook-houses, stables, cow-sheds and the like, where practicable, shall be elevated above the ground outside the dwelling, and be provided with surface channels, passing out through the wall, and delivering above a trapped-gulley, outside. When new drains are being laid and where the floor is at the level of the ground outside, the surface-channel of the cook-house shall be connected to a trap, outside the house, by a straight open pipe, terminating above the water-level of the trap, which shall be accessible and in free com- munication with the air. Every such opening in the wall shall be provided with a fixed grating, at its upper end, to the satisfaction of the Board.

34. All surfaces of back-yards and paved areas of premises wher- ever practicable shall have a fall, towards the trap or inlet of the drain, of not less than one in forty and such inlet shall be placed as far from the walls as practicable.

35. Open surfaces such as back-yards, court-yards or other spaces, on which slops are thrown, or from which foul waters flow, shall be provided with trapped connections to the house-drains, for the re- moval of such waters as well as some of the rain-water, But such surfaces shall be properly paved, in the manner prescribed for back- yards and cook-houses, so that no sand or silt may be washed into the drains from them.

36. Wherever an outlet is available, surface channels shall be provided to carry excessive rain-fall from premises, and these chan- nels shall be properly connected with the storm-water channel in the street. Traps not less than 4 inches in diameter in connection with the house-drain shall be placed in this surface channel, which will carry off slops or sewage, as well as some rain-fall.

37. Rain-water shall be diverted from house-drains by means of surface channels or otherwise to the fullest extent practicable.

38. The rain-water from roofs, which slope towards enclosed court-yards, or back-yards, may, if diversion to the surface channel is impracticable, be received into the house-drain. But no ventila- ting pipe shall be used for the conveyance of rain-water from the roof.

39. No person shall, where it can possibly be avoided, lay any pipe for conveying sub-soil drainage in such manner or in such posi- tion as to communicate direct with any sewer, cess-pool or drain used for the conveyance or reception of sewage.

NOTE. It is important to exclude sewage-tainted air from the sub-soil. The, con- nection of sub-soil drains to sewers even if a trap is used is objectionable, because in dry weather the flow of the drain may cease and the water or the trap may dry up and leave a free communication between the sewer and the sub-soil drain. The object of sub-soil drainage is not only the removal of water, but the aeration of the sub-soil. The mouths of such drains therefore should be so placed that pure air can enter freely a condition incompatible with direct connection with sewers or house- drains.

40. In every case where the course of a drain shall be diverted, any cesspool previously existing and into which such drain may have previously emptied, shall be cleansed, deodorized and filled with clean earth.

41. All drains, or drainage works, shall be built and carried out in all respects in accordance with the provisions of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, and of these bye-laws and of any that may be made hereafter, and if no written notice as provided by No. 1 of these bye-laws shall have been given to the Board by any owner or occupier about to construct, re-construct, alter or amend any drain on his premises, and if by such default the sanitary surveyor shall have had no opportunity of inspecting and approving or disap- proving of any such drain actually built and already covered in, it shall be lawful for the Board on discovering the existence of such

237

238

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

drain or drainage works to call upon the owner or occupier to open and uncover the same for the purpose of inspection, and should such drain or works prove upon inspection to be defective either in respect of design, workmanship or materials they shall be deemed a nuisance and dealt with as such. Any owner or occupier who constructs, re- constructs, alters or amends any drain without such written notice as aforesaid, shall be deemed to have contravened these bye-laws.

42. All works connected with the construction of drains and drain-connections shall be carried out in strict accordance with the plans and sections previously submitted to and approved by the sanitary surveyor or with such amendments to such plans and sec- tions as may have been required by him, to make them comply with the provisions of this Ordinance and such works shall be carried out in a proper and workmanlike manner with the best materials of their respective kinds and shall be subject during their progress to the continuous control and supervision of the officers of the Board appointed in that behalf and shall be completed to the entire satisfac- tion of the Board.

43. Whenever any private house drain is about to be constructed or re-constructed the Board shall have power to require the provi- sion of a surface channel of approved materials and design, in lieu of a covered drain, in any position in which a covered drain, may appear to be undesirable.

Waste pipes from buildings and surface channels from cook-houses stables, cow-sheds, and the like shall discharge into such surface channel without the intervention of a trap; but any communication between such surface channel and a covered drain shall be by means of a trap.

ENTRY AND INSPECTION OF BUILDINGS.

1. The secretary of the Board shall furnish the sanitary inspectors with general authority in writing, in English and Chinese, to enter, between the hours of 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. and inspect, upon reasonable notice to the occupiers or owners, any building and curtilage in their respective districts for the purpose of acertaining the sanitary condi- tion, cleanliness and good order thereof or of any part thereof, and of any partitions, mezzanine floors, stories and cocklofts therein, or of the condition of any drains therein or in connection therewith. If it shall be requisite for the purpose of ascertaining the sanitary condi- tion of any domestic building or curtilage, to open the ground surface of any part thereof any sanitary inspector in possession of authority in writing signed by the secretary or by the medical officer of health after giving not less than forty-eight hours' notice in writing signed by either of the aforesaid officers to the occupier or owner of such domestic building or curtilage of his intention to enter the same for the purpose of opening up the ground surface thereof, may so enter, with such assistants as may be necessary, and open the ground sur- face of any such premises in any place or places he may deem fit, doing as little damage as may be. Should the material which has been used for covering such ground surface and the nature and thickness thereof, be found satisfactory and in accordance with law, such ground surface shall be reinstated and made good by the said Board at the public expense.

2. The secretary shall, upon the requisition of the medical officer of health authorise in writing, in English and Chinese, one or more of the Board's officers to enter any domestic building at any hour between 6 p.m. and midnight for the purpose of ascertaining whether such building or any part thereof is in an overcrowded condition.

3. No officer of the Board shall, between the hours of mid- night and 8 o'clock the following morning, enter any domestic building for the purpose of ascertaining whether such building or any part thereof is in an overcrowded condition, without the written permission, in English and Chinese, of the President of the Board.

2. All cattle imported into the Colony by land shall be driven direct to the cattle market at the village of Yaumáti, and their arrival reported forthwith at the Yaumáti Police Station. The officer in charge of such Station shall forthwith report every such arrival to the colonial veterinary surgeon together with such other particulars as may be ascertainable concerning such animals.

Cattle, swine, sheep or goats brought into the City of Victoria for sale or slaughter shall be at once conveyed or driven to the Govern- ment depôts at Kennedy Town.

3. All cattle, swine, sheep and goats imported into the Colony shall be forthwith inspected and in the case of cattle and sheep duly marked by the colonial veterinary surgeon and any such animal which he finds to be diseased or which he may suspect to be suffering from disease shall be placed in segregation and under observation at the depôts set apart for the purpose at Kennedy Town and Yaumáti.

4. The colonial veterinary surgeon shall in every instance, with all practicable speed, report to the Board the whole of the ascertain able particulars concerning the animals he places in segregation.

5. The owner of each animal placed in segregation shall pay ten cents per day for the keep of such animal until it is either passed as being free from disease or destroyed.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

6. If it appears to the colonial veterinary surgeon that an animal placed in segregation is suffering from a dangerously infectious disease, the Board may cause such animal to be forthwith slaughtered and the carcase thereof to be disposed of in such manner as the Board may deem fit.

12. Where it appears to the colonial veterinary surgeon that disease exists or has within 56 days existed in any place where animals are kept, the Board may declare such place to be infected and take such steps to prevent the spread of disease as the Board may deem fit. 13. When a place has been declared to be infected a placard shall be posted there to that effect and the removal therefrom, without the sanction of the Board, of any animal, carcase, fodder, litter, utensil or other thing therein is prohibited, and any persons residing upon or visiting such infected premises may be detained thereon by any officer of the Board, pending the disinfection of such persons and of their clothing to the satisfaction of the Board.

14. Every person having in his premises or under his charge an animal affected with infectious disease shall, with all practicable speed, report the same to the officer in charge of the nearest Police Station 15. The Police shall forthwith report to the colonial veterinary surgeon all cases of animal disease coming under their notice.

EDUCATION DEPARTMENT,

HONGKONG, 31st January, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to forward to you my Report upon the Education Department for the year 1902.

STAFF.

Mr. JAMES, M.A., and Mrs. JAMES, Headmaster and Headmistress of the Kowloon School, arrived in the Colony in February.

Second Assistant Masters were appointed to the District Schools at Sai Ying Pun and Wan Tsai in March.

Mr. YOUNG HEE was appointed Master and Supervisor to the same schools in April.

Miss CALCUTT, was appointed Infant Schoolmistress at the Kowloon School in May.

The Reformatory being empty, Mr. CURWEN and Mr. BULLIN have been em- ployed in other Departments during the greater part of the year.

I was absent on leave from the middle of April till the end of November, the Rev. T. W. PEARCE kindly acting for me.

THE COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION.

&

The Report of the Committee on Education was published in April. It is still not entirely decided how far the recommendations contained therein are to be adopted.

DRAFT OF A NEW CODE.

During my absence on leave I endeavoured, at the request of the Government, to familiarise myself with the working of the English Code, and with that view I visited a number of representative Secondary and Board Schools. I also drafted a New Code, which is now in the hands of the Government.

INSPECTION.

During the last few weeks of the year, after my return, it was thought advisa- ble that I should confine myself to general inspection and not hold the Annual Examination of the Grant Schools. I have thus been enabled to report fully on the condition of the Government Schools. I also visited the principal Grant Schools, many of them with Miss E. P. HUGHES, from whom I obtained much valuable advice. Miss HUGHES, for many years Principal of the Cambridge Training College for Secondary Teachers, is just returning from a year's visit to Japan, where she was sent to make a special report for the Board of Education. Her knowledge of Eastern requirements, added to her long experience in matters educational, lends great weight to her opinions.

THE KOWLOON SCHOOL.

The Kowloon School is the outcome of a widespread desire throughout the Colony for a school, where children of European nationality should be given the opportunity of being educated apart from Asiatic surroundings.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

That it has been possible to report such a school in full working order during the last seven months of the year, is due to the liberality and to the broad views of Mr. Ho TUNG. Some time previously Mr. Ho TUNG had offered to build at Kowloon and to present to the Colony a school where instruction in English should be given to scholars of all nationalities. The building was completed about the time that the Committee on Education made its Report. In view of the feeling as to the undesirability of mixed schools alluded to above, and emphasized in that Report, it was felt that to open a new mixed school would be courting failure. And it was finally decided to appeal to the good will of the donor, asking him to change the conditions of his gift, and to allow the school to be one for the children of Europeans exclusively. This he consented to do upon certain conditions for the improvement of Chinese education on the Kowloon side.

I

The following extracts from Mr. JAMES' Report require little comment. have paid several visits to the school since my return to the Colony, and am satis- fied that really good work is being done therein, although the initial difficulties are I am considerable. Mr. JAMES is fully satisfied with the work done by his Staff. pleased to be able to report a considerable increase in the attendance for the first month of the new year.

"The school was formally declared open by His Excellency Major- General Sir W. J. GASCOIGNE, K.C.M.G., Officer Administering the Govern- ment, on April 19th. On the 1st and 2nd of May I conducted an Entrance Examination in order to classify my pupils.

On 5th May,

regular school work was commenced.

Admissions.

The number of pupils admitted on the first day was 39; 18 more were admitted up to 31st December, thus making the total number of admissions for the year 1902, reach 57.

Attendance.

During this period the school was opened 125 times, and the aggregate attendance amounted to 4,913. This gives an average daily attendance of 39.3. The greatest number present on any one day was 51, and the smallest 14-the latter being accounted for by a typhoon. I give the average daily attendances for the different months :-

December,

The above table shows, in spite of the increasing number of admis- sions, a distinct falling-off in attendance on the approach of the hot weather. This, in my opinion, confirms the wisdom of the scheme which fixes the two hot months-August and September-as annual holidays, and allows work to be re-started in comparatively cool weather on 1st October.

Fees.

The following table will show the amount collected in fees during this period:-

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

The loss in fees for June and July is due to the fact that it was found necessary to reduce to the Lower School some pupils whom, mainly on account of their age, I had first of all placed in the Upper School.

Withdrawals.

Six children were withdrawn from the school in the course of the year-four because their parents were leaving the Colony, one (who has since been re-admitted) because she was too small, and one because it was thought that the Convent School would suit her better.

Staff.

The teaching staff during this period has consisted of the Head- mistress (Mrs. JAMES), the Infant Mistress (Miss CALCUTT) and myself.

Curriculum.

The following subjects were taught at the school during the year:- Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, English Composition, English History, Geography, English Grammar, Drawing, Sewing, Algebra and French.

We have been at considerable pains to make the teaching as interest- ing and attractive as possible to the infant pupils (who form a majority in the school), and their evident keenness on coming to school, coupled with the accounts which we receive from their parents, prove that we have met with a certain measure of success in this direction.

They have shorter hours and more frequent intervals than the bigger children. Miss CALCUTT gives them Object Lessons, and often makes them learn their ordinary lessons marching round the room; Mrs. JAMES teaches them to colour skeleton drawings with crayons, and also teaches them Musical Recitations with character gestures; while I teach them three times a week by the aid of Education Pictures.

Desks.

The new patent adjustable desks arrived from America towards the end of the year. They are now in use and are giving complete satis- faction. They are greatly admired by all the Schoolmasters who have seen them, while two schools-one in Hongkong and one in Canton-are taking steps to procure similar ones.

Gifts, &c.

H. E. Sir W. J. GASCOIGNE, K.C.M.G., presented the school with a framed portrait of himself: Mr. W. C. JACK presented the school with a flagstaff and a large British flag, while the Committee of the old Kowloon School defrayed the expenses of a Tea, a children's Pantomime and a Christmas Tree, for the benefit of the pupils.

Nationality.

When the school was started it was predicted that innumerable difficulties would arise in the way of maintaining it exclusively for Eu- * * * * * * were easily ropean children. These difficulties * overcome, without hurting the feelings of any of the Asiatic or Eurasian applicants who had to be rejected.

Religious Instruction.

It has

No religious teaching is given as part of the school course. been given out, however, that the school buildings are always (except during school hours) at the service of any Minister of the Gospel who may wish to give religious instruction here to those among the pupils who attend his church.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

Advantage of this has been taken, so far, only by the authorities of the Free Church, who hold flourishing Sunday School classes here every Sunday,

Boys and Girls.

The boys and girls in the school are taught side by side during the school hours, but are kept rigorously and carefully separated during play time. There seems to me a certain amount of advantage in letting them work together, as it introduces a healthy element of competition.

Play Ground.

I must point out that a play ground 7 yards square is hardly big enough for a lot of young Britons with a natural leaning towards British sports. I venture to hope that the year 1903 will see a more spacious play ground provided.

Retrospective.

*

It was with something like dismay that I discovered on opening school that my thirty-nine pupils varied in age from five to seventeen years, and that it would be necessary to divide them into eight separate classes. It is a significant fact that not more than two children used the word "Sir" when addressing me. * * * *

* * Since that time there has been effected a marked improvement in the behaviour and de- meanour of both boys and girls and I maintain that, by this alone if by no- thing else, the school has justified its existence. The actual amount of school work got through is a long way short of what would have been ac- complished at a similar school in England during the same period. Allow- ance must however be made for the following--(1) the climate; (2) the difficulty in getting books and appliances from England, the long time taken to bring them out, and the caution necessary when ordering; (3) the time taken in finally classifying the pupils, and in evolving a mous operandi for the teaching of eight classes by three teachers; (4) the illness of a member of the staff, and in short all the difficulties incidental to the starting of a new school.

I have reason to hope that the coming year will see considerably greater progress made, and that the educational machine will work with a greater degree of system, smoothness, and regularity.

THE BELILIOS SCHOOL.

*

*

*

"

The staff of the Belilios School was strengthened considerably in the

years 1900 and 1901 by the appointments of Miss BATEMAN and Miss CHUN YUT. In the latter half of 1901 the fees were practically doubled, now averaging about one dollar a month. In 1902 the Kowloon School withdrew a certain number of girls and small children from the Belilios School. From the following table it seems clear that the improvement in the teaching does not weigh with parents against the countervailing disadvantage of increased fees, or counter-attractions else- where.

I have eliminated the figures for the middle period of each year, as they are made irregular by the recurrence of plague. The figures are arrived at by adding together the total Enrolment of each of the four months. The last three periods represent the time during which the higher fees have been charged. The last peri- od is that in which the competition of the Kowloon School has been felt.

261

262

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

Of the 90 odd children in attendance at the end of the year, one-third were girls in the Upper School, one-third were girls in the Lower School, and one-third were boys in the Lower School. Miss BATEMAN, the Lower School Mistress, em- ploys methods in grounding small children which I consider to be most successful, and the Lower School is in a very healthy condition. Turning to the Upper School, I cannot, in the face of such rapidly declining numbers, say as much. The fault certainly lies not in the capacity nor in the industry of the teachers: nor can it be altogether attributable to the raising of the fees, since parents would not refuse to pay the same fee in the Upper School which they are willing to pay in the Lower School, if equally satisfied with the education. The fact, I believe to be, that a There specialising process is at work in the educational system of the Colony. seems a natural tendency for schools to aim at providing an education specially suited to the requirements of one or other section of the community. The Kowloon School, the reorganisation of the Diocesan School and Orphanage for Girls, the special classes at Queen's College, the gradual elimination of Chinese from St. Joseph's, all point in this direction. If this view is correct, it follows naturally that a school avowedly cosmopolitan will attract few scholars from classes of society for which more particular arrangements are made elsewhere, and will only appeal with certainty to classes which are too small to make their own particular wants a matter of special study. That the Belilios School is actually tending more and more to provide for this residuum is, I think, not unlikely. And the opinion is strengthened by reference to the roll of the Upper School, which contains the names of Japanese, Indians, Filipinos, and Chinese from the Colonies, besides the more normal elements.

Meanwhile in the same building there is a Vernacular School for Chinese Girls, totally distinct, and in a flourishing condition, under the management of a Chinese Staff. The school is about as good as can reasonably be hoped for under purely Native management. I quote from an examination recently held by Miss BATEMAN, whose good knowledge of Chinese makes her opinion valuable :-

"At your request I examined some of the highest classes in the Chinese Department of the Belilios School for Girls.

I

Arithmetic.

gave all the classes sums to do in the first three rules. exceptions they were all correct in their answers. The exceptions had taken two Multiplication sums as one sum. They were perhaps not accustomed to my English method of setting down the sums.

Reading.

All the classes read each from the book learned this year. The lowest from Book I, the next from Book II, and the highest from Book III. The reading was correct enough, but it was done at express speed, and once a pupil was shown where to start she went on, as if wound up, to finish the book. Without an instant's pause she would be off to the next lesson, and read it as if it were merely a continuation of the last.

Explanation of the Reading.

This too was correct, but done at the same rate as the reading. But I found, when I put one or two leading questions on the reading, I got perfectly correct answers without any hesitation.

Questions on various Subjects.

I questioned all the classes together. With one or two exceptions I got correct answers at once. Once or twice I had to get an answer by asking some other questions. In getting the questions ready I took their reading books as a guide. If I kept to the books I was on safe ground, but I could not get much that was outside the book matter.

                      They told me to whom Hongkong belonged, but had no idea of there being at

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1993.

town and several villages in Hongkong. They said they had never been taught. They gave me the names of the five continents, five oceans, countries of Asia, rivers of China, capital of China. I could not get any definitions of "island" or "river" from them. They answered well in other subjects, such as metals and their uses, &c.

The second day I gave them some written work.

The younger classes of those I examined made two sentences em- bodying two Chinese characters I had chosen. Their sentences were all good.

Letter-writing.

The elder classes wrote a letter. T gave as subject matter, the Public Gardens-what they would see and hear there, and whom they might see there. The letters were, on the whole, fair, one or two were rather stereotyped, and one, written by a pupil in class V, whose number is 131, is really very good. The set forms of her letter are well chosen, and the subject matter natural and showing an observant mind. She is the only one who writes of the pond and the gold fish and the little English children playing and fighting there."

Thus there are within the building a somewhat languishing Upper School of about thirty girls, a flourishing Lower School of about sixty girls and boys, and a Chinese school of about one hundred and forty girls.

It seems a pity that some at least of these last should not be receiving instruc- tion in English and Western Knowledge, such as their brothers and future husbands are now obtaining, especially when there is upon the premises a Staff with time at its disposal and special qualifications for the task. For these reasons I have obtained permission to allow a class of these girls to study English with Miss BATEMAN in the afternoons, continuing their Chinese studies in the morning. They will pay a reduced fee of fifty cents.

263

DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

Education in the Colony may, for administrative purposes, be arranged under three Heads. Under the first is Queen's College, entirely independent of the Education Department. The second includes the Grant Schools, which are con- nected with the Department, but by loose bonds; in consequence of which experience proves, that any reform set in motion by the Department takes at least a year to produce its results in the Grant Schools. The District Schools, however, like the Kowloon School and the Belilios School, are within the direct control of the Inspector of Schools. It was, therefore, natural that the changes in the educational policy, recommended by the Committee on Education, should produce their first fruits in these schools.

The District Schools are the survivors of a centripetal movement, by which in the year 1860 a number of them were brought together to form the Central School, now Queen's College. The rest, scattered beyond the reach of that centre of attraction, have pursued each one its isolated course. One after another they suffered extinction, until at the beginning of 1902 only the following were left:- at Wan Tsai, Sai Ying Pun, Yau Ma Ti, and Wong Nai Chung, English Schools; and at Wan Tsai, Sai Ying Pun, Tang Lung Chau, Pok Fu Lam, and Shek O, Chinese Schools.

It is necessary to give a brief description of these schools as they were at the beginning of the year under review for a proper understanding of the changes introduced in them. At Wan Tsai and Sai Ying Pun (English Schools), English, Arithmetic, and Geography were taught up to the Fourth Standard. The

264

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

study of the Chinese Written Language was entirely neglected, and in consequence scholars in the uppermost class were quite incapable of composing a few sentences correctly in their own language. Being what they were-schools professing to teach English-an equally serious fault was that from lowest to highest Standard the practice of colloquial English was almost entirely neglected. It was another weak point that the time devoted to Geography was by no means used, as it should have been, to implant those elements of general information or "Western Knowledge" which the youth of China lacks so universally.

The English Schools at Yau Ma Ti and Wong Nai Chung were smaller, but no less inefficient. Under the same roofs as the English Schools, but not other- wise connected with them, were the Vernacular Schools of Sai Ying Pun and Wan Tsai where instruction in the beginnings of the Chinese Classics was given, with a little Arithmetic, and in the Fourth Standard a little Geography. It was the excep- tion for scholars to pass from the top (Fourth) Standard of these schools into the English Schools adjoining; nor when they did so were their prospects of obtaining a valuable education very bright. The study of their own language dropped at the point where some use was just accruing from it: they might hope in four years more to have conned and perhaps learned by heart three School Readers, but not to understand an Englishman addressing them in the simplest phrases. The other Vernacular Schools were much less efficient.

Before my departure from the Colony in April the following changes had been made in the English and Vernacular Schools at Sai Ying Pun and Wan Tsai, now known as the Anglo-Chinese Schools of those two places:-

(a.) The English and Vernacular Schools were linked together in such a way, that the Vernacular School became the Lower School and the English School the Upper School.

(b.) A Fifth Standard was added to the Upper School. (Arrangements

have been made for the addition of a Sixth Standard in 1903.) (c.) In every Standard of the Upper School daily translation from English into Chinese and from Chinese into English has been insisted

upon.

(d.) Daily instruction in the Chinese Classics has been given to the Upper School by the Classical Master of the Lower School ; while at the same time one of the Masters of the Upper School has taken the Lower School in Western Knowledge.

(e.) The English lessons to the upper Standards of the Upper School have been combined with instruction in current topics of general interest, such as the recent treaty with China.

(f) Colloquial conversation was practised to some extent in every Stand- ard of the Upper School, though it has not been given nearly as much attention in the lower Standards as I should have expected, had I been present throughout the year.

It

(g.) A Master and Supervisor was appointed for these two schools, Mr. YOUNG HEE, who has divided his time between them. The recom- mendation of the Committee was that "English Masters should be "engaged......... to supervise the work of the Chinese Masters." was however considered desirable to engage the services of Mr. YOUNG, on the ground that while he spoke English naturally, having spent all his life in a British Colony, he was on the other hand a good Chinese scholar, a combination hard to obtain. Mr. YOUNG has shewn great zeal in the performance of his duties, and, although he has had no former experience of teaching, has greatly advanced his pupils.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

(h.) In return for these advantages given something more was expected from the Scholars. In particular it was desired that new Scholars unduly ignorant of their own Written Language should not be al- lowed to hamper the work of the translation classes. Consequently the vacant seats were allotted upon the result of test examinations held at the beginning of the year. The subject of the examinations was a simple narrative told by word of mouth, which the competi- tors were required to reproduce in literary Chinese. About twice as many candidates attended as there were seats to be filled; and the experiment-one recommended by the Committee on Education-must be considered successful.

(i.) The other point on which additional effort was expected from the scholars was in the matter of payment for their education. I did not venture to recommend that fees should be charged throughout these schools at once, though this further development has taken place from the beginning of 1903. It was however decided that all new Scholars should pay the small fee of fifty cents a month. No difficulty was experienced in collecting these fees, which pro- duced a revenue during the year of $152.50.

In order to give an opportunity to boys of good attainments whose parents might find a difficulty in paying this fee, a system of free scholarships, tenable for one year, has been started. On the result of the Summer Examination fourteen of these scholarships were given to scholars at Sai Ying Pun and fifteen at Wan Tsai, to date from January, 1903. The number is large and will probably be reduced in future years. The rather degrading practice of giving a great number of small money prizes of fifteen or twenty cents at Christmas, has been abandoned.

i

 I was able to do less with the school at Yau Ma Ti. Mr. YOUNG has visited it regularly on Saturdays, and a Fifth Standard has successfully been added. Here again the general weakness in colloquial is a blot on what otherwise would be a well conducted school. No serious attempt was made to work up the English School at Wong Nai Chung, and at the end of the year its closure was recommended, partly because the knowledge of English possessed by its one Master was insufficient to justify his position; partly also because the school is situated too near the Anglo- Chinese School at Wan Tsai to be necessary at present.

 Of the other Vernacular Schools than those of Wan Tsai and Sai Ying Pun there is nothing to report. The best that can be said of them is, that they are po- tential nuclei of Western thought and knowledge in the remoter districts of the Colony whether this justifies their existence is a question which will engage the attention of the Department during the present year.

 Sanction has been given for the engagement of a second Master and Supervisor- Mr. WILLIAMS of the Municipal Technical School at Birmingham, who is expected in a few days. Since my return from leave I have laid before Government a scheme for placing the Yau Ma Ti School on the same footing as the other two Anglo-Chinese District Schools, by the engagement of a third Master and Supervis- or and the establishment of a Lower (Vernacular) School. Should this scheme be sanctioned, there will then have been equipped three schools with a purpose and aim which it will be well to enunciate and bear clearly in mind. In the first place they are to teach the English language, not merely by Readers, Grammars and Spelling Books, but in the only way a language can be taught-by word of mouth. On their ability to accomplish so much the schools must stand or fall. The Chinese Written Language will also receive much attention and will be taught,

265

266

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 27TH FEBRUARY, 1903.

especially in the Lower School, in such a way as to reduce the drudgery attendant on the study to a minimum. The Humanities, History and Geography and Western Knowledge generally, will be treated as matters of great importance in view of the extraordinary ignorance under which the Chinese suffer, of what has passed and what is passing in the world they inhabit. Besides these subjects, Mathematics and others will be pursued as time admits. But if it is found in a year or two

that the Scholars cannot understand plain English, and if they cannot write a good letter in their own language, failure must be admitted, though they understand Bookkeeping as taught in school books, and can write Shorthand at the rate of 30 words a minute.

GRANT SCHOOLS.

The earlier date on which I have been this year required to send in my Report has rendered it impossible to give the usual returns and figures for the Grant Schools; the material for these, which itself requires careful sifting, not being available till the middle of January. I hope to send them with a short supplemen- tary Report in explanation of them shortly.

Besides these subjects, Mathematics and others will be pursued as time admits. But if it is found in a year or two

that the Scholars cannot understand plain English, and if they cannot write a good letter in their own language, failure must be admitted, though they understand Bookkeeping as taught in school books, and can write Shorthand at the rate of 30 words a minute.

GRANT SCHOOLS.

The earlier date on which I have been this year required to send in my Report has rendered it impossible to give the usual returns and figures for the Grant Schools; the material for these, which itself requires careful sifting, not being available till the middle of January. I hope to send them with a short supplemen- tary Report in explanation of them shortly.

The following Report of the Director of the Observatory for the year 1902 is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 10th March, 1903.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

HONGKONG OBSERVATORY, 5th February, 1903.

  SIR,-In the absence of the Director on leave, I have the honour to submit the Annual Report of the Observatory to His Excellency the Governor. The eighteenth volume of observations was published last summer, and the nineteenth volume is now being printed. It contains the usual astronomical, meteorological and magnetic observations.

  2. The comparison of weather forecasts, issued daily about 11 a.m., with the weather subsequently experienced, has been conducted on the same system as heretofore (comp. Annual Report for 1896 5). The results are as follows:

Success 56%, partial success 35%, partial failure 8%, failure 1%.

  Following the method used in meteorological offices and taking the sum of total and partial success as a measure of success, and the sum of total and partial failure as a measure of failure, it follows that :-

91% of the weather forecasts were successful in 1902.

  3. The China Coast Meteorological Register was printed every morning at the Observatory, and information regarding storms was telegraphed to Hongkong and exhibited on notice-boards as often and as fully as such information could be justified by the weather telegrams received. This happened on 95 days in 1902. The Red Drum was hoisted 5 times, the Red South Cone twice, the Black Drum 3 times, the Black South Cone twice, the Black North Cone 3 times and the Black Ball once. The Typhoon Gun was fired 3 times. Printed Bulletins for general distribution were issued on 26 occasions. The distribution of the China Coast Meteorological Register has been extended, and since last summer it has been delivered free daily to all shipping firms.

4. His Honour the Commissioner of Wei-hai-wei has been good enough to cause meteorological observations to be made there twice daily, and by the courtesy of the Eastern Extension and Australasian Telegraph Company, these observations have been transmitted to the Observatory free by cable since November last.

  5. The thanks of the Government are due to the Telegraph Companies, who continue to forward the meteorological telegrams from outports to Hongkong free of charge, and also to the staffs of the Eastern Extension and Australasian Telegraph Company at Sharp Peak, Malate, Iloilo, Bacolod and Cebu, who make and transmit observations twice daily.

6. Telegraphic connection with Victoria was interrupted as follows:-March 20th 10.26 a. to 2.30 p. ; 28th 7.10 a. to April 2nd 10.40 a. ; 8th 8 a. to 10th 9.40 a.; 10th 1 p. to 12th 9.48 a.; 12th 11.40 a. to 13th 11. a.; May 27th 4.10 p. to 28th 3.45 p.; June 20th 1.21 p. to 4.51

to 4.51 p.; July 3rd 1.8 p. to 7.15 p.; 17th 11.10 a. to 12.15 p.; 19th 8.43 a. to 10.20 a.; August 2nd 6.13 p. to 4th 9.25 p. 5th 10.45 a. to 12.3 p.; 6th 9.48 a. to 10.56 a.; 10th 7 a. to 6.24 p.; 12th 1.30 p. to 2.50 p.; 19th 7.10 a. to 10.25 a.; 28th 3.30 p. to 5.15 p. ; 29th 7.10 a. to 31st 10.40 a.; 31st 11.45 a. to 1 p.; September 6th 1.5 p. to 3 p.; 15th 1.25 p. to 3.45 p.; 16th 5.15 p. to 17th 8.15 a. 17th 11.55 a. to 1.10 p.; 29th 7.8 a. to 11.15 a.; October 13th 9.21 a. to 10.50 a. 25th 10.45 a. to 2.40 p.; November 11th 11.45 a. to 1.15 p. Interruptions occurred therefore on 39 days, and of course, also, during thunderstorms.

7. During 1902 in addition to meteorological registers kept at about 40 stations on shore, 1,253 ship logs have been copied on board or forwarded by the captains. The total number of vessels, whose log-books have been made use of, was 164. The total number of days' observations (counting separately those made on board different ships on the same day) was 9073.

   10. As stated in the "Instructions for making Meteorological Observations, etc.," meteorological instruments forwarded by observers who regularly send their registers to the Observatory are verified here free of cost. During the past year 1 barometer and 2 aneroids were verified. hundred barometers and aneroids on board ship were compared with our standard.

In addition, several

   11. In 1902, the number of transits observed was 2,842. The axis of the transit instrument was levelled 235 times and the azimuth and collimation errors, which are less liable to variation, were determined 20 times by aid of the meridian mark. The whole of the observations have been made and reduced by Mr. J. I. PLUMMER and are now ready for the press.

   12. The standard sidereal clock by DENT continues to give perfect satisfaction and has undergone no alteration during the year. The platinum points of the contact springs were cleaned once only, viz., on September 30. The expectation mentioned in the last annual report that the going of the Brock Clock would be improved by the alterations effected in 1901 has not been realized. The time- ball clock and the chronograph are in good condition, the latter having been cleaned on March 18th.

   13. The errors of the time-ball are given in Table II. The ball is not dropped on Sundays nor Government holidays. There was one failure in 1902, viz., on July 5, owing to a defective cell in the clock circuit, and on two days, viz., on July 18 and August 12, it was deemed inadvisable to hoist the ball in the prevalence of bad weather. On August 5 and 6 the line was under repair having been broken down in the typhoon of August 2. The ball was dropped successfully 293 times in 1902. The probable error was in January±0.10, in February±0.09, in March±0.09, in April±0.15, in May±0.18, in June±0.15, in July±0.14, in August±0.09 in, September ± 0.09, in October +0.09, in November±0.13 and in December ±0.15.

14. The cisterns of the barograph and standard barometers are placed 109 feet above M.S.L. The bulbs of the thermometers are rotated 108 feet above M.S.L., and 4 feet above the grass. The solar radia tion thermometer is placed at the same height. The rim of the rain-gauge is 105 feet above M.S.L., and 21 inches above the ground.

15. The monthly Weather Reports are arranged as follows :-

Table I. exhibits the hourly readings of the barometer reduced to freezing point of water, but not to sea level nor for gravity, as measured (at two minutes to the hour named) from the barograms.

Tables II. and III. exhibit the temperature of the air and of evaporation as determined

by aid of rotating thermometers.

Table II. exhibits also the extreme temperatures

reduced to rotating thermometer by comparisons of thermometers hung beside them. Table III: exhibits also the solar radiation (black bulb in vacuo) maximum temperatures reduced to Kew arbitrary standard.

Table IV. exhibits the mean relative humidity in percentage of saturation and mean tension of water vapour present in the air in inches of mercury, for every hour of the day and for every day of the month, calculated by aid of BLANFORD'S tables from the data in Tables II. and III.

Table V. exhibits the duration of sunshine expressed in hours, from half an hour before to

half an hour after the hour (true time) named.

Table VI, exhibits the amount of rain (or dew) in inches registered from half an hour before

to half an hour after the hour named. It exhibits also the observed duration of rain.

Table VII. exhibits the velocity of the wind in miles and its direction in points (1-32.) The velocity is measured from half an hour before to half an hour after the hour named, but the direction is read off at the hour.

Table VIII. exhibits the amount (0)-10), name (Howard's classification), and direction whence coming of the clouds. Where the names of upper and lower clouds are given, but only one direction, this refers to the lower clouds. With regard to the names of clouds; nimbus (nim) is entered only when the rain is seen to fall; when no rain is seen to fall cumulo-nimbus (cum-nim) is entered. This name indicates clouds intermediate between cum and nim. Cumulo-stratus (cum-str) is the well-known thunder cloud, while strato-cumulus (str-cum) signifies a cloud intermediate between stratus and cum. Sm-cum means alto-cumulus.

¿

Table IX. exhibits for every hour in the day, the mean velocity of the wind reduced to 4 as well as 2 directions, according to strictly accurate formula, and also the mean direction of the wind.

Below this is printed a list of the phenomena observed.

16. The following annual Weather Report for 1902 is arranged as follows:--

Table III. exhibits the mean values for the year (or hourly excess above this) obtained from the monthly reports. The total duration of rain was 678 hours. There fell at least 0.01 inch of rain on 132 days.

Table IV. exhibits the number of hours during a portion of which at least 0.005 inch of

rain (or dew) was registered.

Table V. exhibits the number of days with wind from eight different points of the compass. The figures are obtained from the mean daily directions in Table VII. of the monthly reports. Days with wind from a point equidistant from two directions given, are counted half to one of these and half to the other, c... half of the days when the wind was NNE are counted as N, and the other half as NE.

Table VI. exhibits the number of days on which certain meteorological phenomena were registered, and also the total number of thunderstorms noted in the neighbourhood during the past year.

Table VII. shows the frequency of clouds of different classes.

Table VIII. is arranged as last year.

Table IX. exhibits the monthly and annual extremes,

Table X. contains five-day means.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 13TH MARCH, 1903.

17. The observations of magnetic declination and horizontal force published in tables XI. and XII. were made with magnet No. 55 on Kew pattern unifilar magnetometer ELLIOT BROTHERS No. 55. The dips were observed with dip-circle Dover No. 71.

2

   The methods adopted in making observations and in determining and applying the corrections are explained in Appendix G of Observations and Researches male in 1885--"On the verification of the Unifilar magnetometer ELLIOT BROTHERS No. 55." The value of log K used was 3.44907 at 25°. The value of P was 7.04. The mean value of the magnetic moment of the vibrating needle was 577.27.

The times of vibration exhibited in Table XII. are each derived from 12 observations of the time occupied by the magnet in making 100 vibrations, corrections having been applied for rate of chrono- meter and are of vibration.

The observations of horizontal force given in Table XIII., are expressed in C.G.S. units. vertical and total forces have been computed by aid of the observed dips.

By Command,

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 20th March, 1903.

VICTORIA GAOL,

HONGKONG, 10th February, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to submit, for the information of His Excellency the Governor, the following report on the Victoria Gaol, for the year 1902.

2. The number of prisoners committed to the Gaol under sentences from the Ordinary Courts was 5,786, besides 149 soldiers and sailors sentenced by the Military and Naval Authorities. There were 53 prisoners admitted for debt, making a total of 5,988.

3. The corresponding numbers for the preceding year were respectively as follows:-

Convicted by the Ordinary Courts,

Sentenced by the Military and Naval Authorities, Debtors,

In default of finding security,

Total,..

4,858

182

...5,077

4. The percentage of prisoners admitted with previous convictions recorded against them to the total number of admissions was 113 as compared with a percentage of 13.37 for the year 1901.

5. The following table shows the daily average number of prisoners confined in the Gaol during the past 10 years :-

1893,

6. The Superintendent of the Gaol, in paragraph 10 of the Annual Report for the year 1898 (during which year the daily average number of prisoners in the Gaol was 511), called attention to the inadequacy of the Gaol accommodation. The question was again raised in paragraph 12 of the Superintendent's Annual Report on the Gaol for the year 1900, when accommodation for 570 prisoners was given as the total capacity of the Gaol.

7. During the year under review and especially in the month of May, when for several days the number of prisoners confined in the Gaol went up to 749, the Gaol was very much overcrowded.

For 171 days during the year the daily population of the Gaol varied between 571 and 749 prisoners and on 75 days of that period the numbers were over 600. During the latter art of the year a number of prisoners were located in the corridors, cell accommodation being insufficient.

8. The following table shows the number of convicts confined in the Gaol on the 31st December for the past five years :-

During the above five years there were 116 convicts released, time expired, etc. The figures in the above table call for special attention indicating as they do a continuous increase of long-sentence prisoners.

9. The number of prisoners admitted to the Gaol for offences not of a criminal nature was 2,729, made up as follows:-

11. There were 6 deaths and 3 executions during the year, and 35 prisoners released on medical grounds.

12. There were 84 juveniles admitted to the Gaol during the year, 64 of whom were sentenced to be detained for 48 hours and to be whipped, the remainder were sentenced to various terms of imprisonment.

13. There were 1,971 punishments for breach of prison discipline, being an average of 3.42 per prisoner, as compared with 2,411 with an average per prisoner of 4.83 for the preceding year. There were eight cases in which corporal punish- ment was awarded during the year. Seven of which were (with the birch rod) sentenced by the Assistant Superintendent alone and one with the cat-o'-nine-tails sentenced by the same Officer in conjunction with a Justice of the Peace.

Notwithstanding the overcrowded state of the Gaol during the year, the average number of reports per prisoner has been the lowest on record and speaks well for the maintenance of discipline throughout the prison.

14. There were 313 prisoners convicted from the New Territory during the year, of whom 16 were sentenced to 2 years' imprisonment and upwards.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH MARCH, 1903.

15. Constant attention is given to the instruction of long-sentence prisoners (first offenders) of good conduct, who are employed at industrial labour, viz.:-Boot and Shoe-making, Tailoring, Mat-making, Carpentry, Tinsmithing, Net-making, Mattress-making, Rattan work, Knitting, Printing and Book-binding the know- ledge of which is useful and educational, rendering many of them much better adapted to earn an honest livelihood after their discharge from prison.

The total number of forms printed at the Gaol during the year 1902 was 3,050,828, and 11,949, books were bound. The value of work done by the Printing and Book-binding Department was $29,039.13. Deducting the cost of paper, leather, etc., used during the year, from the net earnings, the total profits on all industrial labour amounted to $29,439.91 for the year 1902.

16. All minor repairs to the Gaol have been carried out by prison labour.

17. The conduct of the European Officers has, as a rule, been excellent, and their duties satisfactorily performed. The conduct of the Indian Staff has been on the whole good.

18. There have been no escapes or attempts to escape.

19. The new quarters for married and single Officers were completed and occupied in March. The Officers' old quarters within the prison have been con- verted, by prison labour, into a hospital for prisoners.

The new hospital is a separate building, capable of accommodating 30 prisoners.

20. There have been no suicides or attempts to commit suicide during the year.

I append the usual returns.

GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION. -No. 162

The following Report of the Examiners of Queen's College is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 19th March, 1903.

F. H. MAY,

Colonial Secretary.

HONGKONG, 19th January, 1903.

SIR, We have the honour to lay before you a report on the examination of the upper portion of Queen's College which we have recently conducted.

Before giving our remarks in detail on each of the subjects offered it would perhaps be well to make a few general observations.

The work shown up was on the whole satisfactory. The writing was good and the general neatness was highly to be commended. Some really excellent work was done by the boys at the top of IA. But there is often an enormous difference between the boys at the top and the boys at the bottom of any given form. The boy at the top of IA., for instance, out of a possible 1,700 marks gets 1,257, while the boy at the bottom obtains only 520.

The work offered by IB. appeared to us to be too advanced, few of the boys in this class were able to cope with the questions set them.

The answers presented to us shewed that the boys had been very carefully taught; but the great fault which we noticed in all the classes examined was a disinclination or disability on the part of the boys to think for themselves. Too great a reliance is placed on mere effort of memory. For instance, one of the ques- tions set for class IIA. in History was: "What do you know of Judge Jeffreys?" A great many boys evidently imperfectly remembering what they had been taught, answered this by saying: "He was a ready tool." In fact much of the nonsense written by many of the boys is due to the fact that, instead of trying to think what the question means and attempting to write an answer in their own words, they strove by mere effort of memory to reproduce verbatim what had been taught them.

But when it is recollected that all the work is done in what is, to the Chinese boys, a foreign language, the results are very satisfactory; it is all the more to be lamented that boys who can do such work in English should, with one or two exceptions, be so ignorant of their own written language.

We now append our remarks on each subject.

Reading and Conversation.-The reading was good throughout the school. The examination in colloquial was unfortunately held before the written examination, and it is very difficult to judge of the boys' capacities. On the whole the boys ex- plained the phrases which came in the course of their reading and appeared to understand the questions which were put to them.

Dictation.-In some forms this was very well done. In Class IIIC. 14 boys obtained full marks. Class IA. was not very satisfactory, and Class IB. collapsed entirely eight boys out of the eleven in this form failing to obtain any marks.

Grammar was very well done by all the school.

Composition.-Class IA. did not appear to understand the question set them. One or two boys, however, did good papers.

The composition for Classes II. & III. & N 2 & N 3 consisted of a short story read aloud to them. They then had to write down what they thought they had heard. The results were fair.

Geography. This was well done.

The map drawing of Class IIA., was very good indeed.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH MARCH, 1903.

Chinese to English.-It is difficult to say to what extent the boys are capable of translating from Chinese to English. The passages set for translation were from the books which had been prepared during the year. There is an English crib translation of these books and the passages selected were well translated by such boys as recollected their crib. Those who forgot the crib usually wrote rubbish.

The translation of Chinese to English appears to us to be a matter of such importance that we venture to go into the question in some detail. In one passage set to Class II. "The cession of Hongkong" is described.

The date given in the Chinese is≈+; (20th year of To Kwong). the crib owing to a misprint translates this as To Kwong 22nd year. In Class IIA out of 53 boys, 36 instead of looking at the Chinese words before them faithfully reproduced their crib and wrote 22nd year.

occurs. The

Again in one of the passages set to Class III. the phrase crib translates this "he communed with himself" and so wrote all the boys who recollected the crib; those who did not, wrote "he consumed himself." In fact an unintelligent use of the crib was evident. Those boys who got the translation. right got it word for word the same. Some boys began a paragraph before the Chinese passage given them and some continued the crib after the Chinese had come to an end, apparently not knowing in some cases what portions of the crib corresponded with the Chinese before them. We would suggest in future that in all forms a short portion of unseen translation, part of a simple petition or news- paper article, be made obligatory. It is at present impossible to say whether the boys can translate simple Chinese into English or not.

English to Chinese.-LI HO CHING in Class I. and three boys in Class IIA. did very good translations into Chinese. Many of the boys are apparently quite unable to write correct Chinese. A very large number of common characters were incorrect- ly written.

 Shakespeare was well done by the non-Chinese form, who had evidently been very carefully taught. The top boys in A. also did very creditable work con- sidering the difficulties which a play of Shakespeare must present to a foreigner. Many of the boys gave a good account of Macbeth's character-one of the questions asked-indeed it is surprising that boys who answered this question so well should have not been able to write a better piece of composition.

General Intelligence.-It was surprising that so few boys could give correctly the names of the Four Books and the Five Classics.

Special Translation.-Chinese to English and English to Chinese.

This paper, which was optional, was attempted by some thirty boys. Only three boys appeared to understand a piece selected from the SHU KING.

The piece of prose set for translation into English was well done in some cases; few boys translated the short sentences correctly.

LI HO CHING did well in both subjects.

 Algebra.-General. The papers set appear to have been too severe in all classes and the amount of work offered for examination to be beyond the abilities of the majority of the boys. The marks and percentage of passes are low, but it is to be remembered that the papers were set for a high standard on the work offered, whereas it is considered that it would have been better to include in the syllabus easy ques- tions only, on the more advanced work.

 IA.-As this is a scholarship class, boys should have been prepared to answer any question set on the work offered; consequently it is thought that only the book work of the more advanced portions should have been included.

To make this subject at all comparable to others, it was found necessary to award full marks for two thirds of the paper set.

385

386

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH MARCH, 1903.

Algebra.-IB. NI.-The marks obtained are a fair criterion of the attainments of these classes.

IIA., B.-A better standard of knowledge than that. of IA., B., NI. was shown, but still not very satisfactory.

IIIA., B., C., N 2, N 3.-These classes showed better work in this subject; a very fair standard being attained.

Euclid.-General.-The standard of work is generally good throughout the College; especially when it is remembered that the Chinese language does not lend itself at all to the form of reasoning adopted, and consequently this subject has not only to be learned in a language foreign to the majority of the scholars, but the reasoning has to be followed and expressed, even to themselves, in that language. The figures were in the majority of cases accurately and neatly drawn, Euclid.-IA.-Good as a whole.

Even among those who obtained only low marks there was a satisfactory absence of those absurdities in reasoning which shew that the work has been learnt. by heart without being understood.

IB, NI.--Satisfactory compared to the other mathematical papers.

IIA., B.-Very good throughout the class. The subject appears to be well understood.

IIIA., BC., N 2.-Disappointing compared to the other classes; the majority appear to have learnt the work by heart, and hardly any to understand it; as is shown by the indiscriminate arrangement of the steps in the reasoning, without any regard to any connection between them.

Arithmetic.-Good throughout in method; accuracy fair.

IA.-The great failure of this class was inaccuracy and the comparatively low marks are to be attributed to this cause: the subject, however, is well understood and accuracy is merely a matter of practice.

IB., NI.-Again very poor.

IIA., B.-Very satisfactory: accuracy was particularly good in this class. IIIA., B., C., N 2, N 3, N 4.-Accuracy was not so good, but there is evid- ence of careful training requiring only practice to develope it.

Mensuration. A better general standard was attained in this than any other mathematical paper.

IA.--Inaccuracy, already noticed in arithmetic, was the cause of the majority of failures in this class; the formula and method of applying them appear to be thoroughly understood by the majority.

IB.--Still not very satisfactory.

IIA., B.-Particularly good in this as in other mathematical papers.

Natural Science, Physiology.-NI-A good grasp of the subject has been obtained.

N 2.-The answers given were vague and not so precise and definite as is desirable in such subjects.

Book-keeping.-IA., B.-The paper set does not appear to have been sufficiently difficult; consequently, in marking notice had to be taken of minor errors in technical expression. The results obtained were, in the main, accurate.

IIA.-Good on the whole, though the paper appears to have been found rather too long. Few of the boys attempted all the questions set.

We have to thank Messrs. A. R. LOWE and H. E. MORRISS for setting the

papers.

We recommend the following boys for scholarship :--

POLICE SCHOOL,

HONGKONG, 31st March, 1902.

SIR, I have the honour to forward the following Report on the Police School for the year just ended.

(1.) On May 1st Mr. J. K. DEALY went to England on one year's leave of absence. I was left in charge, and the vacancy so caused was filled by Mr. E. RALPHS, one of the Senior Assistant Masters at Queen's College.

(2.) Two examinations were held- one in February and the other in September. At the former 10 European Constables presented themselves and all passed; at the latter 2 men came up for examination and both passed. They all received the usual certificates of exemption.

(3.) The total number of attendances made during the year was 4,734. School was open on 101 days, giving a daily average of 468. The highest attendance on any one day was 70, on January 16th.

(4.) I wish to add that the total attendance would have been greater had it not been that from May 5th to May 29th the Courts were under repair for the ins- tallation of electric light, thus limiting the accommodation for Indians and Chinese.

(5.) The following gives in detail the number of men attending during the year, as supplied from the School Register:

SANITARY BOArd Offices, January 20th, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit, for the information of the Board, the following Report upon the health of the Colony for the year 1902.

AREA.

The portion of the Colony within the jurisdiction of the Sanitary Board comprises (1) the island of Hongkong which has an area of 29 square miles and on which are situated the City of Victoria, the larger villages of Shaukiwan, Quarry Bay, Aberdeen and Stanley, and several smaller ones; and (2) that portion of territory on the mainland between the shore and the first range of the Kowloon Hills- extending from Lyeemoon Pass on the east to Laichikok on the west,-with a sea-frontage of about ten miles and an area of 18 square miles. The City of Victoria is built on the northern shore of the island with a frontage to the sea of about five miles, while the Harbour, which separates it from Kow- loon on the mainland, is rather less than a mile and a third wide at its narrowest part and somewhat over three miles at its widest part.

The domestic buildings of the City of Victoria number 9,234 (exclusive of Barracks and Police Stations), of which 920 are non-Chinese dwellings, while there are also some 130 European dwellings in the Hill District.

This shows an increase of 48 non-Chinese dwellings as compared with the previous year, and an increase of 140 Chinese dwellings. The plans of 808 new buildings and of alterations to 1,833 exist- ing buildings have passed through my hands during the year, with a view to seeing that they complied with the Public Health Ordinances of the Colony; these figures however include, as in former years, many alternative plans, and amendments to rejected plans. During the previous year plans of 1,369 new buildings and of alterations to 1,497 existing buildings were received, so that the records of the past year show a considerable decrease in the number of new buildings planned, and a fairly large in- crease in the number of alterations to existing buildings. The number of new houses completed during the year has been 898 as compared with 796 during the preceding year; many of these are of course houses which have been rebuilt.

CLIMATE.

     The average monthly temperature throughout the year has been 73.4° F. as compared with 72.1° F. during 1901; the maximum monthly temperature was attained in the months of August and September when it reached 81.8° F., and the minimum monthly temperature was recorded in the month of February being 59.5° F.

496.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 17TH APRIL, 1903.

  The highest recorded temperature during the year was 92.2° F. on July 27th, and the lowest 40.5° F. on February 4th.

The total rainfall for the year was 97.50 inches as compared with 55.78 inches in 1901 and an average of 77.86 inches during the past ten years. The wettest month was May with 26.73 inches, while there were also 26.5 inches of rain in the month of August; the driest month was February with only 0.02 inch. The greatest amount of rain which fell on any one day was 8.06 inches on August 2nd, while no rain fell on 223 days of the year; the relative humidity of the atmosphere throughout the year was 75.6 per cent. as compared with 75 per cent. in the previous year while during March to August it averaged continuously over 82 per cent. The average daily amount of sunshine throughout the year was 5.3 hours and on 51 days no sunshine was recorded.

  The above figures have been calculated from the monthly Reports issued by the Director of the Hongkong Observatory; the temperatures are taken at 108 feet above mean sea-level and at 4 feet above the grass.

The following table shows how uncertain has been the rainfall during the past twenty years:-

  In my Annual Report for 1899 I showed that the average rainfall during the decade ending that year was eleven and a half inches less than the average rainfall during the preceding decade. The above figures show that the average has fallen still further, for during the past decade it has been more than sixteen and a half inches less than during that ending 1892. Any estimates of water- supply, therefore, based on previous records of rainfall are subject to a very considerable discount from this cause, while a continuous supply can only be assured by taking, as the basis of calculation, the lowest annual rainfall of, say, the last twenty years.

GENERAL SANITARY CONDITION.

The Colony was visited in the early part of the year by two eminent Sanitarians-Professor SIMPSON, M.D., F.R.C.P., and Mr. OSBERT CHADWICK, M. INST. C.E., C.M.G., who had been specially deputed by the Secretary of State to report on its general sanitary condition. Several most interesting reports were submitted by them, which fully bore out the statements which have been reiterated in these Annual Reports as to the urgent need of better lighting and ventilation for the Chinese dwellings, and as to the serious extent of the surface-crowding in the City of Victoria. As a result of these Reports a Public Health and Buildings Bill is still before the Legislative Council which will, it is hoped, lead, when enacted, to a steady and continuous improvement in the general sanitary condition of the Colony, by its provisions for the better construction of buildings to be hereafter erected. This improvement in the construction of new buildings must, however, go hand in hand with schemes for the resumption of blocks of insanitary property and for the removal of obstructive buildings, especially in the City of Victoria, where the surface crowding varies in the several Health Districts from 64 to 832 persons per acre.

The provision of public sanitary conveniences, such as latrines, urinals and bath-houses, does not keep pace with the rapid growth of the population (by immigration), and many more of these are yet required to fulfil the needs of the teeming Chinese population of the Colony.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 17TH APRIL, 1903.

POPULATION.

497

     The population of the Colony at the Census taken in January, 1897, was 248,880, while at the Census taken in January, 1901, it was (exclusive of the New Territories) 283,975. This represents an increase of 35,095 within a period of four years and affords a remarkable proof of the rapid pro- gress of the Colony.

     The increase is, of course, very largely Chinese and is to be found mainly in Kowloon, where the population increased during the four years from 26,442 to 42,976, and in the City of Victoria, where it increased from 160,273 to 175,056.

The increase in the non-Chinese Civil population during the same period amounted to 951.

The following is the estimated population to the middle of 1902:-

Non-Chinese Civil Population,

City of Victoria including Peak and Stonecutters, Villages of Hongkong,

Chinese Population,

Kowloon,

Floating Population,

Total Chinese Population,

Army,. Navy,

14,185

51,560

44,755

.293,300

4,204

4,504

311,824

    The total strength of Troops in Garrison on June 30th, 1902, was 63 British Officers and 1,327 British Warrant Officers, N.C.O.'s and men, with 46 Indian Officers and 2,553 Indian Warrant Officers, N.C.O.'s and men. There were also 169 British women and children, and 46 Indian women and children making a total of 4,204. At the Census taken in January, 1901, there were 5,501 Officers and men and 2,139 camp followers resident in the Colony, making a total of 7,640.

     The total strength of the British Fleet on the China Station on June 30th, 1902, was 10,400, as compared with 11,598 in the previous year and 7,110 in 1900. At the Census taken in January, 1901, the actual number of Officers and men of His Majesty's Navy present in the Colony was 5,597, and the estimated average number resident here (ashore and afloat) throughout the year 1902, is put at 4,504.

     The Chinese boat population of the Colony (including 1,180 Chinese on the merchant ships in the Harbour) numbered 41,280 at the Census taken in January, 1901, and has been estimated at 44,755 to the middle of the year 1902.

The following is the number of registered boats belonging to the Port:-

Fishing and Trading Junks,

Cargo-boats, Lighters, Sampans, etc.,..

Total,

6,663 4,796

11,459

     The number of boats licensed in 1901 was 12,399, and in 1900 it was 12,367, so that the figures for 1902 shew a considerable falling off, mainly in the number of fishing and trading junks licensed, but this reduction is only apparent as it is more than compensated for by an increase of no less than 1,898 in the number of boats and junks licensed for the villages in the New Territory which are not included herein, as these villages do not come within the jurisdiction of the Sanitary Board and are not included in the estimates of population. The number licensed for each of these villages was as follows

For Cheung Chau, 1,727; for Tai O, 966; for Tai Pò, 1,187; for Deep Bay, 1,029; for Sai Kung, 918; and for Mirs Bay, 5; making a total of 5,832, as compared with 3,934

in 1901.

498

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 17TH APRIL, 1903.

The population of the Colony is classified primarily into Chinese and non-Chinese, the former being greatly in the majority. The non-Chinese comprise a white population of 12,805 of whom 6,742 are civilians and the remainder belong either to the Army or the Navy. The coloured races (non-Chinese) number 5,719 and include East Indians, Malays, Filipinos, Eurasians, Asiatic Portuguese and a few Africans and Japanese. At the Census taken in 1897 the Asiatic Portuguese numbered 2,267, while at that taken in 1901, they were returned at 1,956 only.

The Civil population is essentially a male adult one as no less than 72.9 per cent. of the Chinese population and 62.5 per cent. of the non-Chinese Civil population are males, while more than half the Civil population (50.2 per cent. of the Chinese and 56.4 per cent. of the non-Chinese) are between the ages of 20 and 45. The proportion of the population in Great Britain between these ages is only 33.8 per cent. The proportion of males at the Census taken in 1897 was, among the Chinese 70.9 per cent., and among the non-Chinese 58.6 per cent., and the reduction in the proportion of women both among Chinese and non-Chinese is, I consider, the direct result of the greatly enhanced cost of living of late years, and the increasing difficulty in obtaining suitable accommodation for families.

Kow-

   The City of Victoria is divided into ten Health Districts with an Inspector of Nuisances in charge of each District; there are also five Senior Inspectors for the City, each of whom has the general supervision of two Districts, while there are also special Inspectors for the work of disinfection, for prosecutions, for the control of the Chinese cemeteries, for drainage work and other matters. loon is similarly divided into two Health Districts, with an Inspector of Nuisances in charge of each, but has already become so important a suburb--the population having doubled in the last five years- that I think there is now ample scope there for at least three Inspectors, and the District should be sub- divided accordingly.

   In addition to the foregoing it is proposed to appoint five Plague Inspectors in the ten Health Districts of the City, that is one for each two Districts, and a Plague Inspector in Kowloon, whose special duties have been defined in another document.

   The following table gives the number of Chinese houses and floors (i.e., separate Chinese dwellings in most cases), and the number of inmates per house and per floor, in the City of Victoria.

There are also some 1,800 Chinese servants, etc., resident at the Peak.

I have in previous Reports called attention to the acute surface crowding which exists in the more central districts of the City. District No. 5 shows more than 800 persons to the acre, while Districts 6, 9, 4, 7 and 8 are also far too densely packed with human beings, and it is essential to the welfare of this Colony that a remedy should be speedily found and put into operation for this insani- tary condition. So far as I have been able to ascertain, there is no other City in the world which has 132 persons to the acre and yet this is the density of population of the City of Victoria as a whole, that is to say, including all the outlying vacant lands, and the villages, Race Course and Cemeteries in No. 1 Health District, the Public Gardens and all the vacant Military land in Nos. 2 and 3 Health Districts, and all the unoccupied hill-side below the upper limit of the City Health Districts (ie., about 450 feet above high water mark). Glasgow, which is the most densely crowded of the large cities of the United Kingdom, has but 61 persons to the acre.

It will also be seen from the first table that Health Districts 2 and 9, in which districts the outbreaks of Bubonic Plague almost invariably commence and are the most severe, show the greatest number of occupants per floor, namely, 8.8 and 9.0 as compared with an average for the City of 7.4; this, in itself, is excessive, although well within the limit of thirty square feet of floor space per head, which is all that is, at present, legally required in any dwelling in the Colony, except within the European District Reservation area, where each person must be allowed one thousand cubic feet of air space- thus necessitating a larger floor area.

The following table gives a comparative statement of the number of persons per acre in each of the Health Districts of the City in 1897 (when a provisional Census was taken) and in 1901 (when the decennial Census was taken) and shows that during the four years the number of persons per acre increased from 117.4 to 129.3, while almost all the central Health Districts of the City are daily be- coming even more crowded:-

  This is equal to a general birth-rate of 3.8 per 1,000 as compared with 3.6 in 1901, 3.3 in 1900, and 4.3 in 1899.

  The birth-rate among the non-Chinese community alone was 12.6 per 1,000 as compared with 11.9 per 1,000 in 1901.

  The nationalities of the non-Chinese parents were as follows:-British 98, Portuguese 70, Indian 27, German 16, Malay 16, French 3, Japanese 2, and Spanish and Norwegian one each.

  The preponderance of male births over female births is still very marked among the Chinese com- munity, being in the proportion of 190 male births to every 100 female births. The proportion among the non-Chinese community was 111 to 100 as compared with 107 to 100 in the previous year.

  The number of the Chinese births register d does not give an accurate record of the total number of births of Chinese that have occurred in the Colony, for many of the infants that die during the first month or so of life remain unregistered, although their deaths must be registered to obtain the necessary burial orders. It has been customary, therefore, to add to the registered births the number of infants of one month old and under that die in the various Convents, or are found by the Police in the streets or in the Harbour. The number during 1902 was 239 males and 364 feinales making a total of 603 and the addition of these figures to the registered Chinese births gives a total of 1,569 as compared with 1,410 during the previous year. The corrected birth-rate is, therefore, 6.1 per 1,000, while among the Chinese alone the rate becomes 5.3 per 1,000. The total Chinese births as calculated in the above manner show a proportion of only 125 male births to every 100 female births, while the dead bodies of infants found in the streets or left at the doors of the Convents show 66 inales to every 100 females, the explanation being that the Chinese have very little regard for the value of the lives of female children.

DEATHS.

  The total number of deaths registered during the year was 6,783, as compared with 7,082 during the previous year. The death-rate for 1992 was, therefore, 21.7 per 1,000 as compared with 23.5 in 1901, 23.9 for 1900, and an average of 23.0 per 1,000 during the past five years. These deaths in- clude 582 from Bubonic Plague.

  The following table gives the death-rates during the past twenty years, inclusive and exclusive of deaths from Bubonic Plague and exclusive in every case of the Naval and Military populations and deaths, as until the last eight years these latter populations were not recorded:--

     It is satisfactory to find that, in spite of the persistence of Bubonic Plague, the death-rate shows a considerable reduction during the past ten years as compared with the previous decade, but there can be no question that this rate is still exceedingly high, having regard to the fact that the population is so largely composed of young adults. Much yet remains to be done in the matter of the improvement of the sanitary surroundings of the inhabitants, and every substantial step in that direction must result in a reduction in the general death-rate.

The total number of deaths among the Chinese community was 6,431 which is equal to a death- rate of 21.93 per 1,000 as compared with 23.77 per 1,000 during the previous year. It is important to note that the death-rate among Chinese women is considerably higher than among Chinese men; the total deaths of Chinese women amounted to 2,119 which gives a death-rate of 26.66 per 1,000, while the deaths among Chinese men totalled 4,291 equal to a rate of 20.06 per 1,000; in twenty-one of the deaths the sex was not recorded. The most probable explanation of this great discrepancy in the death-rates for the two sexes is that the men are more readily able to leave the Colony when sick, and it may be assumed therefore that were it not for this circumstance the general death-rate among the Chinese would be considerably higher.

     The deaths registered among the non-Chinese numbered 352 of which 291 were from the Civil population, 43 from the Army, and 18 from the Navy; this is equal to a death-rate of 19.0 per 1,000.

     The nationalities of the deaths were as follows:-British 112, Indian and Malay 93, Portuguese 81, Japanese 43, German 10, French 6, Russian 2, Jew 2, Spanish, Swede, and Greek one each.

UNCERTIFIED DEATHS.

During the year there were 470 deaths registered in the City of Victoria, of Chinese who had not been attended by a medical man, as compared with 563 during the previous year, and 533 in 1900; in every such case the relatives of the deceased are interviewed and the dead bodies inspected and where necessary sent to the Government Mortuary for further examination, with the result that no less than 35 cases of Bubonic Plague, 21 of Cholera, 1 of Small-pox and 1 of Diphtheria were thus discovered and the premises dealt with in the usual manner.

AGE DISTRIBUTION OF DEATHS.

The number of deaths of infants under one year of age was 1,199, or 17.6 per cent. of the total the deaths, a rate which is far too high even for a tropical climate. The infant death-rate among non-Chinese community during the year has been 196.6 per 1,000 as compared with 129.2 per 1,000 in the previous year, but among the Chinese population the deaths of infants under one year of age exceed the total number of Chinese births, i.e., 966, and even when all deaths under one month are assumed to have been unregistered the infant death-rate works out at 796 per 1,000; this means either that the Chinese infant death-rate is enormous or that a considerable number of births remain unregistered or perhaps that a number of infants are brought into the Colony from the mainland and die here. In The great either case the condition is a most unsatisfactory one and calls for some remedial measure. bulk of these deaths of Chinese infants are attributed to diseases of a convulsive type, but further investigation is needed into the question of the causation of this high death-rate among Chinese infants.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 17TH APRIL, 1903.

DEATHS AMONG THE CHINESE. CHEST DISEASES.

503

     The number of deaths among the Chinese from respiratory diseases was 1,582 or 24.6 per cent. of the total Chinese deaths. This represents a death-rate from these diseases of 5.4 per 1,000 as compared with 4.6 in 1901. As in former years the death rate from these causes was heavier among the boat population than among the land population, having been 6.7 per 1,000 among the former as against 5.2 per 1,000 among the latter.

     The number of deaths of Chinese from Phthisis alone was 6.7, or 45 per cent. of the total deaths from the respiratory diseases.

NERVOUS DISEASES.

     The deaths of Chinese recorded under this heading number 564 and no less than 375 of these or 66.5 per cent. occurred in infants under one year of age, the alleged causes of death being Tetanus, Trismus and allied disorders of a convulsive type.

The number of deaths from these diseases during the past five years has been as follows:--

1899,

.564

No less than 442 of these deaths from diseases of the nervous system or 78.4 per cent. are returned from one or other of the two Convents, most of them being infants that have been left there in a moribund condition. A further reference to these deaths will be found under the heading of

Age Distribution of Deaths."

66

MALARIAL FEVERS.

     The total number of deaths among the Chinese from the Malarial Fevers was 393, as compared with 541 during the previous year, 887 during 1900, and 532 during 1899; this is equal to a death- rate of 1.3 per 1,000.

   The death-rate among the Chinese boat population alone, from this cause, was 1.5 per 1,000. The training of the nullahs on the outskirts of the City, as recommended in my Report for 1900, is the only practicable means of reducing the death-rate from this cause.

Sixteen deaths from Malarial Fevers are recorded as having occurred among the troops, and it would appear, therefore, to be especially necessary that all Barracks should be well isolated from the native population and that the sites should be most carefully selected and maintained free from mosquito breeding pools.

BERI-BERI.

There were 452 deaths from Beri-Beri among the Chinese during last year, as compared with 377 in 1901, and 361 in 1990.

As stated in previous Reports, I incline to the opinion that this disease is attributable to infected. food, and most probably to damaged rice or other grain which has been attacked by some fungoid growth.

ACCIDENTS.

     Among the accidental deaths of Chinese will be found 33 as the result of the collapse of buildings a matter to which I drew attention in my Reports for 1900, during which year twenty deaths were so caused, and for 1901, when 47 deaths were so caused. There can be very little doubt that this is a preventible cause of death, and the obvious remedy is a very much greater amount of supervision over the actual work both of building construction and of the repair of buildings, combined with a greater degree of legal responsibility imposed upon those who design and carry out such altera- tions or additions.

504

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 17TH APRIL, 1903.

INFECTIOUS DISEASES.

  The total number of cases of infectious disease reported by registered medical practitioners during the year was 1,171 of which no less than 572 were Bubonic Fever (Plague), and 410 were Cholera. I attach a tabular statement of the incidence of Bubonic Plague throughout the year (Appendix A.) but have not compiled a separate report on the outbreak for 1902, as a report on this subject is anticipat- ed from Professor SIMPSON as the result of his investigations in this subject. The whole of the Plague staff, including, during the height of the epidemic, considerably over two hundred Chinese disinfecting coolies, rat-catchers, etc., was inoculated with Haffkine's anti-plague serum with the result that not a single case occurred among the staff, whereas in the previous year out of thirty rat-catchers seven are known to have died of Plague while five others left the Colony sick-two of whom died at their homes in China. The results therefore of the Haffkine inoculation coupled with strict discipline in regard to cleanliness and the wearing of leather boots when on duty, were eminently satisfactory as regards the Plague staff. The following table shews the number of cases of the other infectious diseases reported during each quarter of the year :-

  Of these 599 cases 38 are known to have been imported, while in many other cases the source of infection could not be traced as the bodies were found in the streets or in deserted houses. Twenty- five of the imported cases were Cholera, nine were Small-pox, and four were Enteric Fever.

ENTERIC FEVER.

  The total number of cases of Enteric Fever reported during the year was 55 as compared with 75 during the previous year; the European cases numbered 28 as compared with 47 in 1901 and 34 in 1900, while there were 14 Chinese cases, 10 Japanese and 3 Indian. It is important to record, how- ever, that at least three of these European cases were imported from neighbouring ports, while one Chinese case and one "other Asiatic" case are also known to have been imported. Most of the Chinese cases are, however, not discovered until after death, and it is then often impossible to obtain infor- mation as to their length of residence in the Colony.

any

  The number of deaths among the Europeans was 4, which gives a case mortality of 14.3 per cent.. while the total number of deaths among the non-Chinese was ten. Two of these ten deaths occurred in men from the Mercantile Marine, leaving eight among the resident civil community. Six of the deaths occurred among the Japanese our of ten cases, while all of the 14 cases occurring among the Chinese were reported after death.

  Of these 14 Chinese cases so reported. 6 were in children at or under six years of age. while three others were under 14 years of

              age. I have in previous reports discussed this interesting fact of the occurrence of Enteric Fever in Chinese children.

     While of the non-Chinese deaths eight were between 20 and 30 years of age, one between 30 and 40 and one between 40 and 50.

SMALL-POX.

     There was a small outbreak of Small-pox in the early part of the year, 57 cases being reported. Seven of these cases occurred in Europeans, of whom one died and two in "other Asiatics" both of whom recovered; two of the European cases and one "other Asiatic" were imported.

In consequence of this outbreak a notification was issued by the Government on the representation of the Sanitary Board to the effect that persons could be vaccinated free of cost at the Government Civil Hospital, the Tung Wah Hospital, the Alice Memorial Hospital and the Nethersole Hospital while hand-bills were issued urging the Chinese to get vaccinated.

     The total number of deaths from this disease during the year was 41 while in 1901 it was 59, and. in 1900 it was 17.

The total number of vaccinations recorded last year was 6,475 as compared with 5,937 in 1901; 4,406 in 1900, 6,529 in 1899, and 7,051 in 1898. In my Reports for 1900 and 1901 I called attention to the considerable falling off in the number of vaccinations recorded, and in view of the rapid increase in the population the returns for last year cannot be regarded as satisfactory.

     A small bonus is now paid to the Chinese House Surgeons at the Native Hospitals (Tung Wah, Alice Memorial and Nethersole) for all successful vaccinations, with a view to increasing the number of well-vaccinated persons in the Colony and thereby reducing the mortality from Small-pox.

CHOLERA.

     A somewhat serious outbreak of Cholera occurred in the early part of the year, resulting in the notification of 460 cases, and I do not think there can be any doubt that the spread of the disease was encouraged by the shortage of the water-supply, with the contingent intermittent service.

     Only twenty of the cases occurred in Europeans and twelve of these died, while 408 cases occurred among the Chinese with 394 deaths, and 32 among the "other Asiatics" with 27 deaths. The Japanese were heavy sufferers in proportion to their number, as 20 cases occurred among this nationality with sixteen deaths; this is no doubt explained to some extent by the fact that the Japanese are, as also the Chinese, large consumers of raw vegetables. The Board specially warned the public against the consumption of raw vegetables and of unboiled milk or unfiltered water, by repeated advertisements in the public press, during the prevalence of the epidemic, but I am afraid that such warning would have very little influence with any but the most enlightened of the Asiatic community.

DIPHTHERIA.

Twenty cases of Diphtheria were reported during the year as compared with six cases during 1901. In my report for that year I pointed out that five of these six cases had occurred during the last six weeks of the year and that the most probable cause of this was the drought, with the consequent lack of water, and the foul condition of the sewers and storm drains resulting therefrom. The conti- nuance of the drought and the inadequate flushing of the sewers has I am sure much to do with the great increase in the number of cases of this disease, which has hitherto been of rare occurrence in this Colony. Eight of the cases were Europeans and one of then died, while the total deaths numbered five

PUERPERAL FEVER.

     Seven cases of Puerperal Fever were notified during the year, and five deaths were recorded from this disease-all of them among the Chinese community--while no less than 29 deaths were registered as due to Child-birth, and to morbid conditions incident to parturition as compared with 47 during the previous year. This represents a very serious loss of young adult lives and is undoubtedly due to want of proper attention, and to uncleanly surroundings.

In previous Reports for 1898, 1899, 1900, and 1901 I have called attention to the great want there is in this Colony for some maternity charity, in addition to the Maternity Hospital attached to the Government Civil Hospital, and some attempt will, I hope, be made to meet this want when the new extension to the Tung Wah Hospital is opened.

DISINFECTION STATION.

507

     The Disinfecting Station buildings and staff have been under the control of Inspector REIDIE throughout the year and the work has been carried out in a most satisfactory manner. Perchloride of mercury sprays have been in use now for a number of years for the disinfection of buildings and in the hands of trained men they have been found to give every satisfaction. During the year a new and larger steam apparatus was ordered from England which should be in working order early in 1903. It is proposed to place the present one in a building at Kowloon so as to avoid the necessity of convey- ing infected articles across the Harbour.

     The following is a return of the number of articles which have passed through the steam disin- fecting apparatus during the year :-

STAFF.

Assistant Medical Officer of Health: WILFRID W. PEARSE, M.B., D.P.H.

     In the early part of the year three of the five Senior Inspectors-Messrs. LYON, LAMBLE and CONOLLY-arrived from England, the other two having arrived at the end of 1901. Inspector L. E. BRETT returned from leave in England having obtained the certificate of the Sanitary Institute during his absence and Inspector F. FISHER, left for England on leave on the return of Inspector BRETT. Inspector HOGGARTH rejoined the Department; Inspector Hoop was retired on pension owing to ill health and unfortunately succumbed to an attack of heart failure some few weeks after his retirement; Inspector ROGERS has been lent to the Department of the Colonial Veterinary Surgeon during the period of elave of absence of the officer in charge of the Cattle Depôts and Slaughter Houses-Inspector WATSON.

    A number of temporary Inspectors were engaged by the Government during the epidemic of Bubonic Plague. The whole staff has worked exceptionally well during the year and much good work has been done.

     The following is a list of the Inspectors of Nuisances in the employ of the Board, on the fixed establishment, at the end of the year :-

SIR,-I have the honour to forward herewith my Annual Report for the

NEW HOUSE DRAINS.

year 1902.

1. Plans have been deposited and passed by me during the year for the drainage of 432 houses. The plans of 1,021 houses were carried forward from 1901 making a total of 1,453 in hand during the

year.

2. The drainage of 726 houses has been completed and the plans for 14 have been cancelled leav- ing 713 to carry forward to 1903.

3. In addition to the above, notices for repairs or additions to the drainage arrangements of 202 houses were carried forward from 1901, aud new notices were received for 417, making a total of 619 for the year. Of these, 525 have been completed, leaving 94 to be carried forward to 1903.

4. A summary of the above is appended in Tables A., B. and C.

INSPECTION OF PRIVATE HOUSE DRAINS.

5. The drains and sanitary fittings of 63 buildings have been tested and reported on.

Of this number, 42 required reconstructing and 21 amending.

Notices were served on the owners of the above 63 buildings calling upon them to execute the necessary work.

Of these, 59 have been complied with and the remaining 4 are in hand. 22,678 houses have been visited by the Drainage Inspector and Overseer, with the result that 2,026 drainage nuisances have been discovered.

Notices have been served in each case on the owner or occupier to abate the nuisance. 668 nuisances have been referred to the Honourable Medical Officer of Health and 340 to the Honourable Director of Public Works to be dealt with by them. 3,952 choked drain traps, on private property, have been cleansed by the Drainage Inspector.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 17TH APRIL, 1903.

Report of the Colonial Veterinary Surgeon, for the year 1902.

SANITARY BOARD OFFICE, HONGKONG, 2nd March, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to submit for the information of the Board the following Report for the year 1902.

Importation of Live Stock.

  Large numbers of cattle continue to be imported into the Colony from all the neighbouring provinces of the mainland, and a good standard of quality has been maintained throughout the year. It is a matter for regret that a great many of the best are exported to Manila where better prices are

obtainable.

During the year there have been seven cases of Anthrax and these, with one exception, occurred in cattle within twenty-four hours after being admitted to the Depôts. The exception had been in the Depôt for seven days. In each case the animal was found dead or died within a few minutes after being noticed ill. All the animals had come direct by steamer from Canton, so that it is difficult to avoid regarding this district as our source of supply of this disease. Every effort was made by cleans- ing and disinfection to ensure as far as possible that this disease did not become established in the Depôts and such efforts appear to have been successful, as there has been no recurrence of the disease. So far as I have been able to ascertain this disease has not been recorded before as existing among cattle in Hongkong.

There have been occasional cases of Foot and Mouth Disease in the Depôts of a very mild type, but by a liberal use of disinfectants and keeping the feeding and watering troughs clean there was no spread of the disease.

Animal Depôts.

  The total number of cattle admitted into the Depôt at Kennedy Town during the year was 38,531; in 1901 23,555 were admitted. At Hung Hom the total admissions were 5,065 as against 5,688 in 1901. Six hundred and fifty-two were rejected for slaughter as unfit for food at Kennedy Town and 227 at Hunghom.

  Of sheep and goats at Kennedy Town 32,654 were admitted to the Depôts, and 185,596 swine as compared with 28,818 and 180,387 respectively, of the previous year.

  The addition of a second storey to one of the swine sheds at Kennedy Town has been proceeded with during the year and the building is now being occupied. This will provide much needed housing for pigs and sheep which continue to be imported in increasing numbers. Plans have also been prepared and approved by the Board for the erection of two new cattle sheds at Kennedy Town as the present Cattle Depôt is much too small for the number of cattle imported.. During the past year a great many cattle have had to remain outside the Depôt owing to want of room and were tied up on the vacant ground adjoining the Depôt. This arrangement is unsatisfactory to all concerned. The owners lose by their cattle being exposed to the weather and by the continual waste of fodder, and there is great difficulty in keeping the ground on which the cattle stand even moderately clean. There is also a great risk of disease should any epidemic such as Rinderpest make its appearance. In order to relieve this congestion and make it possible to isolate suspicious cases, the old Tung Wah Mortuary has been repaired and fittings put up so that it can now be used as an isolation shed

The erection of a Crematorium at Kennedy Town has been in progress during the year and the building is now almost finished. Available ground for burying animals dying in Depôts has become very scarce round Kennedy Town and there have been some instances of buried pigs being dug up again so that the safe disposal of these dead animals was often a matter of some difficulty. Besides in the case of death from an infectious disease such as Anthrax there was always the possibility of the soil When once the Crema- or water becoming contaminated and acting as a source of future infection. torium gets into proper working order it ought to prove a safe, cleanly and efficient method of disposing of all such carcases.

Slaughter-houses.

Kennedy Town Slaughter-house. The entire control of this Slaughter-house was undertaken by the Board at the beginning of the year. The total revenue for the year amounts to $73,027.60, made up as follows:-Cattle contribute $15,301.85; sheep and goats $4,676.05; swine $53,049.70.

These figures represent both depôt fees and the slaughtering fees as these fees were amalgamated when the Board took over the management of the Slaughter-houses and are now collected as one fee.

Dairies and Cattle Shels.

In May an outbreak of Rinderpest occurred at the Dairy Farm Company's premises at Sassoon's Villas and at Pokfulum. The disease was of a virulent type. The total number of animals in contact. with the disease was 86, of these 39 did not take it, 24 took and died, 19 took it and recovered, and 4 were killed while suffering from the disease. This is the only outbreak of infectious disease recorded among the dairies and cow sheds for the year. All the dairies and cow sheds have been regularly inspected and the general condition of the cow sheds and health of the animals has been very satisfac- Goats are increasing in numbers and are being more used by Indians and Chinese as a source of milk supply. This may be due to the increased cost of buying and keeping cows, goats being much easier to feed and costing very much less to start with.

Markets.

Central Market. Owing to the scarcity of water for washing down purposes difficulty has been experienced in keeping the market perfectly tidy. The lighting of the ground floor of this market is hardly yet satisfactory and increasing business has made the rooms for dressing poultry too small to meet the wants of the poultry dealers.

Western Market.-A new Western Market is in progress.

                                 With the view of making more room in the market for the sale of perishable goods, the Board decided that the salt fish stalls should be converted into fresh fish, meat, or vegetable stalls, this decision to take effect at Chinese New Year 1903.

     Saiyingpun Market. This market is also congested but it is hoped that the erection of a tempo- rary market opposite the Sailors' Home will somewhat relieve this condition.

     Sookonpo. The dividing wall between the two halves of this market has been removed and the roof supported on pillars. The stalls have been re-arranged and the market greatly improved. This market may now be regarded as sufficient to meet the wants of the district.

     There is nothing worthy of remark in connection with any of the other markets within the City or on the Kowloon side.

In connection with the Markets I would like to call attention to the number of licensed hawkers. At the end of the quarter ending 31st December, there were 7,773 hawkers licensed. These men are allowed to sell, besides things not belonging to markets, vegetables and fruit. It may be that these men form a cheap source of food supply for the very poor, but since they buy from the dealers in the markets this is somewhat doubtful. In any case they entail a great deal of extra work to the Inspector of Markets. It is impossible for him to exercise a proper supervision over so many, and, paying no rent as they do, they compete unfairly with the market stall-holders. Besides in many cases these people are not hawkers in the ordinary sense of the term but squatters who take up a position on the side of the street and sit there all day to await customers.

Staff.

Inspector WATSON at the beginning of the year was in charge of Slaughter-house and Cattle Depôt, Kennedy Town, and was assisted by Inspector COTTON. In end of April Inspector WATSON went on leave and Inspector COTTON was appointed Acting Inspector in charge to be assisted by Inspector ROGERS loaned from the Sanitary Staff. Inspector MCEWEN has discharged the duties of Inspector of Markets throughout the year.

Mr. JOHANNSEN remains as Overseer of the Central Market and has assisted at the Slaughter-house and Depôts at Kennedy Town when any of the Inspectors was unfit for duty.

Towards the end of the year a beginning was made with the addition to the quarters provided for the Inspector in charge at Kennedy Town. It is hoped that the addition will have the effect of render- ing the quarters healthier. It is, however, somewhat remarkable that although malaria was very prevalent in some parts of the Colony during the year Inspector COTTON has never suffered from fever since he occupied these quarters on the 1st of May.

New Territory.

During the year, there were two outbreaks of suspected infectious disease among cattle reported from the New Territory by the Police, one from Hoi Ha in the district of Ko-Tong and the other from the district round Sha Tin. In both cases I visited the districts immediately on receipt of the report but was unable to be certain of the nature of the outbreak as all the animals concerned were either dead or better before my arrival. Fortunately in neither case did the disease extend beyond the limits of the villages first affected. I hope to be able during the year to devote more time and attention to the New Territory and more consideration to its needs in the way of improvements in the breeds of cattle buffaloes and pigs so that the New Territory may be of value to Hongkong as a source of its food supply in the way of beef and pork.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to provide for the more effectual prevention of frauds on owners and charterers of ships by stowaways, their aiders and abettors.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:

1. This Ordinance may for all purposes be cited as The Stowaways Ordinance, 1903.

64

2. Ordinance No. 22 of 1890, entitled An Ordinance to amend the Chinese Emigration Consolidation Ordinance, 1899," and Ordinance No. 7 of 1897, entitled "An Ordi- nance to provide for the punishment of Stowaways arriving in this Colony," are hereby repealed.

3. Every person found on board any ship with intent to obtain a passage therein without the consent of the owner, charterer, agent, master or other person in charge thereof, and every person arriving in this Colony on board any ship who, without the consent of the owner, charterer, agent, master or other person in charge thereof, has obtained a passage therein, and the aider and abettor of every such person, shall respectively be liable ou conviction by a Ma- gistrate to a penalty not exceeding one thousand dollars and, at the discretion of the Magistrate, to imprisonment, with or without hard labour, for a period not exceeding nine calendar months.

4. Every person so ou board any such ship may be de- tained and may be handed over to the Police and be taken without a warrant before a Magistrate, and such Magistrate may, on proof of the offence, summarily convict such offender.

5. In every case coming within the provisions of this Ordinance the onus of proving the required consent shall lie upon the accused.

Objects and Reasons.

This Ordinance, which is very drastic in its provisions, is introduced, as a last resort, in the hope that it will at once check and finally put an end to the at present con- stantly recurring cases of frauds on owners and charterers of ships by stowaways, principally between Hongkong and Manila.

The matter has been made the subject of communica- tions to Government from several quarters, among others from the Chamber of Commerce. Various measures have been taken to stop stowing away, but all hitherto done días been insufficient to countervail the exceptional temptations to introduce Chinese into the Philippines.

In one case, that of the Kaifong, no less than 134 stowaways were found concealed on the vessel on her arrival at Cebu, a port in the Philippines. The ship's officers made a timely discovery of the stowaways, and re- ported the matter to the American Authorities, so escaping a very heavy fine for a breach of the stringent laws against the introduction of Chinese into the Islands. As it was great delay and expense to the ship was occasioned, and the owners were obliged to enter into a boud for $70,000 gold to take the stowaways back to Hongkong.

Under the law at present in force in Hongkong

             a fine of $500 or, in default of payment of the fine, six months' imprisonment with or without hard labour may be inflicted on each stowaway and his aider and abettor ; but such a penalty has proved wholly inadequate in face of the large profits which are believed to attend the success- ful smuggling of Chinese into the Philippines, and in face of the fact that the stowing away is, it is believed, con- nived at and the profits shared in by members of the Chi- nese crow, stevedores, and brokers, and possibly sometimes by Europeans employed in or about the ship.

The fine imposed hitherto has always been paid at once, and it seems reasonably certain that there are persons connected with the business, as aiders and abettors, who are able and willing to pay occasional fines out of the profits accruing.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH APRIL, 1903.

When legislation in the direction now proposed was suggested last year by the Chamber of Commence the Government were unwilling to take the drastic measure suggested, and properly refused to do so until satisfied that the ship-owners had done all that they could to pro- tect themselves, by requiring the officers of their ships to observe all reasonable precautions against stowing away.

It has now, however, become evident that nothing short of the fear of imprisonment will deter those hitherto en- gaged in this business of "running" Chinese into the Philippines. The Government have accordingly recon- sidered the matter, and this Bill is introduced as a con- sequence of such reconsideration.

Made by the Chief Justice, under section 24 of the Supreme Court Ordinance, 1873, (No. 12 of 1873) for taxing of

Costs in the Summary Jurisdiction

of the Supreme Court.

1. In the following Rules the expressions "exceeding" and "not exceeding

569

refer in the case of

a Plaintiff to the amount recovered and in the case of a Defendant to the amount claimed.

2. In actions or proceedings other than those for the recovery of money and in actions where claims for the recovery of money are joined with other claims, the Judge, having regard to the value and nature of the subject matter of the action or proceeding, shall direct under which of the scales hereinafter set forth the costs (if any) shall be taxed.

     3. Notwithstanding anything in these Rules to the contrary, the Judge, if of opinion that the action involved a novel or difficult point of law, or that the question litigated was of importance to some class or body of persons, or of general or public interest, may award costs under Scale III to the Plaintiff on any amount recovered however small, or to the Defendant who successfully defends an action brought for any amount however small; and in actions other than those for the recovery of a debt or liquidated demand in money the Judge, if he shall think that the preparation or conduct of the case has involved unusual trouble or difficulty, or for other good cause shown, may, in awarding costs, direct that they shall be taxed on any scale higher than that hereinafter made applicable.

     4. Subject as aforesaid, no costs shall be allowed in actions not exceeding ten dollars, and in other actions costs shall be taxed and allowed in accordance with the following scales as well between solicitor and client as between party and party: Provide that where a client shall have paid or agreed to

pay a sum of money for the conduct of any suit or proceeding, or has agreed to pay costs and charges beyond those provided for in these Rules, the taxing officer may, in his discretion, as between solicitor and client, allow any costs or charges not exceeding the amount which may have been paid or agreed to be paid.

      5. Occasional costs shall only be allowed where from the nature of the case it was reasonable and necessary that they should be incurred.

     6. In awarding the costs of any action or proceeding, the Judge may at the hearing, for good cause shown, disallow the costs of any particular matter in connection with such action or proceeding.

     7. These Rules shall come into force on the 1st day of June, 1903, and shall apply only to actions and other proceedings brought and commenced on or after the said date.

WOOSUNG OUTER BAR.

Intended alterations in the Aids to Navigation at the Woosung Outer Bar.

      Notice is hereby given that, owing to the narrowness of the present deep water channel across the Woosung Outer Bar, the following additions and alterations will be made to the Aids to Navigation on or about the 15th instant.

      A Red Light will be exhibited from a White Pole surmounted by a circular shape erected on Princes' Wharf which will, when kept in line with Woosung Lighthouse, lead midway between the Lismore Wreck Light-boat and the 12-foot contour of the Woosung Spit, this being the line of deepest water. The two lights in line will bear S. 76°33′ W.

      The Woosung Light remains White from the bank of the Yangtze to the N.W.-ward of the Lighthouse to S. 22° W. It will be altered to Green from S. 22° W. to S. 64°50′ W., and to Red from S. 64°50′ W. to the left (or Western) bank of the Woosung River.

The Fort Buoy will be shifted 550 feet S. 27° 20′ W. from its present position, and from it the Woosung Lighthouse will bear S. 87° 45′ W., distant 53 cables; and be moored in 14 feet at Low Water of Spring Tides.

A 10-foot conical Buoy, painted in Red and Black Vertical Stripes, and surmounted by a Black spherical cage, will be moored in 18 feet at Low Water of Spring Tides on the North-eastern edge of the Woosung Spit, and from it the Woosung Lighthouse will bear S. 62° 15′ W., distant 101 cables.

      The least water at present on the line between the Outer End of Princes' Wharf and the position in which the 10-foot buoy is to be placed on the North-eastern edge of the Woosung Spit should not be less than 10 feet; and, on the eastern edge of the Green sector, not less than 11 feet at Low Water of Spring Tides.

On and after the 15th instant, the Outer Bar Signals will indicate the depth of water on the line when Woosung Light and the Red Light placed on Princes' Wharf are in transit.

      CAUTION: From 2 to 3 feet less water than that signalled will be found between the above mentioned 10-foot buoy and a point 700 feet North of the Lismore Wreck Light-boat. Vessels taking up an anchorage outside Woosung will be requested to avoid doing ŝo near the line of the Outer Bar Leading Marks.

All bearings given are magnetic.

Acting Deputy Coast Inspector.

Alterations in the Aids to Navigation at the Woosung Outer Bar.

      With reference to Notice to Mariners No. 167 (Special), dated the 6th April, 1903, Notice is hereby given that, owing to the narrowness of the present deep water channel across the Woosung Outer Bar, the following additions and alterations have been made in the Aids to Navigation.

584

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH APRIL, 1903.

A White Pole, surmounted by a circular shape, from which a Red Light is exhibited, has been erected on Prince's Wharf, which, when kept in line with Woosung Lighthouse, leads midway between the Lismore Wreck Light-boat and the 12-foot contour of the Woosung Spit, this being the line of deepest water. The two lights in line bear S. 76' 33′ W.

The Woosung Light remains White from the bank of the Yangtze to the N. W.-ward of the Lighthouse tɔ S. 222 W. It has been altered to Green from S. 22° W. to S. 64° 50′ W., and to Red from S. 64° 50′ W. to the left (or Western) bank of the Woosung River.

The Fort Buoy has been shifted 700 feet S. 47° 40′ W. from its former position and moored in 15 feet at Low Water of Spring Tides; from it, the Woosung Lighthouse now bears S. 87° W., distant 49 cables.

  A 10-foot Conical Buoy, painted in Red and Black Vertical Stripes and surmounted by a Black Spherical Cage, has been moored in 18 feet at Low Water of Spring Tides on the North-eastern edge of the Woosung Spit; and, from it, the Woosung Lighthouse bears S. 62° 15′ W., distant 10.1 cables.

  The least water at present on the line between the Outer end of Princes' Wharf and the 10-foot Buoy placed on the North-eastern edge of the Woosung Spit is 10 feet; and, on the castern edge of the Green Sector, 11 feet at Low Water of Spring Tides.

  The Outer Bar Signals now indicate the depth of water on the line when Woosung Light and the Red Light on Princes' Wharf are in transit.

DIRECTIONS.

As the narrow part of the deep water channel across the Woosung Outer Bar is abreast of th Lismore Wreck Light- boat, extending from 2 cables outside to 2 cables inside of her, inward bound vessels can afford to open the leading marks to the northward as soon as they are 2 cables inside the Light-boat.

Outward bound vessels should steer to pass

ing marks.

cable off the Fort Buoy, and then gradually come on to the line of lead-

CAUTION.

  There is from 2 to 3 feet less water, than that signalled, between the 10-foot Buoy off the Woosung Spit and a point 700 feet north of the Lismore Wreck Light-boat. Vessels taking up an anchorage outside Woosung are requested to avoid so doing near the line of the Outer Bar Leading Marks.

All bearings given are magnetic.

ABOLITION OF PILOT STATION AT ROTTNEST ISLAND (PORT OF FREMANTLE).

   The Fremantle Harbour Trust Commissioners, with the concurrence of the Hon. The Colonial Secretary, hereby notify, for general information and guidance of persons using the Port of Fremantle, that on and after the First day of August next (1st August, 1903), the Pilot Establishment hitherto existing at Rottnest Island, will be discontinued, and that the Pilot Service of the Port of Fremantle will thenceforward be worked from Fremantle.

   The Pilot Station at Fremantle will be worked as a Shore Station, provided with a steam pilot boat, launch, and sailing lugger.

   Rottnest Island is connected with Fremantle by telephone, and vessels bound for Fremantle will, on making Rottnest Island and requiring a Pilot, signal for same to the Signal Station situated at the main Lighthouse on the Island, and on this signal being male out it will be reported to the Pilot Station at Fremantle, whence Pilots will be despatched as required to board incoming vessels at the Pilot Boarding Ground (which is situated about five miles East of Bathurst Point, on Rottnest, as shown on new issues of Chart No. 1058).

Shipmasters are warned not to approach Rottnest nearer than three (3) miles, and to always pass in North of the Island and stand to the Eastward till Fremantle Time Ball Tower (Arthur Head) bears S.E. (Mag.), then steer S.E. towards Boarding Ground.

Sailing vessels working to the Southward with a head wind when East of Rottnest, not to stand closer than three miles to Rottnest Island or mainland.

When approaching Rottnest in the winter months, sailing vessels must guard against getting embayed South of the Island, as the winter gales generally commence at North with a falling barometer, and rapidly veer to the Westward.

Do not, under any circumstances whatever, heave to North, West, or South of Rottnest, but proceed to Pilot Boarding Ground.

At night, after picking up the Woodman's Point Leading Light stand East, through the Red and into the Bright Sector steer to the S.E. towards Boarding Ground, taking care to keep in Bright Ray.

The South Passage at Rottnest is ou no account to be attempted except by vessels whose Masters hold Pilotage Exemption Certificates.

The following Report of the Superintendent of Fire Brigade for the year 1902, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 8th May, 1903.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

FIRE BRIGADE DEPARTMENT,

HONGKONG, 16th March, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit the following report on the Government

Fire Brigade for the year 1902.

2. There were 76 Fires and 95 Incipient Fires during the year.

                                      Details re- garding each are attached. The Brigade turned out 70 times during the year.

The estimated damages caused by the Fires was $2,144,919.50, and by the Incipient Fires $1,159.50.

 3. A list is attached showing the number of Fires that have occurred during each of the last ten years, with the estimated value of property destroyed in each

case.

 4. The water in the mains was turned off from 11th November, 1901, to 24th May last, and again from 1st November last, during which period the steam engines and sea water were used.

5. Two large Fires occurred during the period of intermittent water supply. That of the 29th March was the largest conflagration that has taken place for several years. The Fire broke out at No. 280, Queen's Road Central, at about 3.10 a.m., and fanned by a strong breeze quickly spread across the street and up the hill. Before water was available a large area was in flames. By 7 a.m. it was well un- der control, though it continued to smoulder for many days; 47 houses in all were wholly or partially destroyed, and the total damage was estimated at $990,000, most of which was covered by insurance.

Another large Fire occurred on the 19th May in Wellington Street, near the Fire Brigade Station, which destroyed 15 houses.

6. Four Fires occurred in the Harbour during the

year.

7. A case of attempted arson was discovered at No. 335, Des Voeux Road West on the morning of the 6th December by P.C. 382 Ng Luk. The Fire had already got a good hold of the boarding of the staircase and the Constable with quick presence of mind beat out the Fire with his cape. He then examined the place and found some apparatus obviously intended to produce arson, but there was not sufficient evidence to prosecute any person.

8. A prosecution for arson was instituted in respect of the Fire at No. 318, Queen's Road West, on the 26th December. The two defendants were found guilty and sentenced to seven years' imprisonment with hard labour at the Criminal Sessions.

9. I attach a list of places where Fire Despatch Boxes are kept, and copy of re- port by the Engineer on the state of the Fire Engines, which are all in good order.

10. The conduct of the Brigade has been good.

11. I was appointed Superintendent of the Brigade from the 23rd April in succession to the Hon. F. H. MAY, and Captain F. W. Lroxs, of the Perak Police, was appointed Assistant Superintendent and arrived on the 17th September last, Chief Inspector MACKIE was appointed Second Assistant Superintendent from the 17th September.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

F. J. BADELEY,

Superintendent of Fire Brigade.

F. H. MAY, C.M.G.,

The balance to the credit of the Society on the 31st December was $16,126.44, compared with $15,217.19 on the correspond- ing day of 1901. The actual sum spent by the Managing Committee on the work of the Society was $7,563.98, as compared with $6,640.36 in 1901. The subscrip- tions during the year amounted to $7,248.25, compared with $6,823.50 in 1901. The Man Mó Temple increased its subscription to $2,208.26, Mr. Ho WING TSUN and Mr. TAM CHUNG PING have kindly audited the accounts.

-

 The Visiting Justices during the year have been Captain ANDERSON and Mr. CH'AN A FUK.

Four hundred and ninety-four women, ninety-three girls and thirty small boys were admitted during the year. A return attached to this report shows what steps were taken with regard to them.

The inmates of the Home receive daily instruction in elementary subjects, and they are able to earn some pocket-money by needlework in their spare time.

A report by Dr. J. C. THOMSON on the sanitary conditions of the buildings and on the health of the inmates is attached.

During the year the accommodation provided in the Home has been sufficient, but on previous years it has sometimes proved insufficient. It is proposed to in- crease the accommodation by taking over part of the buildings adjoining the Pó Leung Kuk which are now occupied by the Tung Wa Hospital, this arrangement being rendered possible by the new extension of the Tung Wa Hospital.

ENTRANCE TO THE HWANGPU.

ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS TO THE AIDS TO NAVIGATION.

   Notice is hereby given that, owing to the narrowness of the present deep-water channel across the Woosung Outer Bar, the following additions and alterations have been made to the aids to navigation :---

A white Pole, surmounted by a circular shape, from which a red Light is exhibited, has been erected on Princes Wharf, which, when kept in line with Woosung Lighthouse, leads midway between the Outer Bar Light-boat and the 12- foot contour of the Woosung Spit, this being the line of deepest water. The two Lights in line bear S. 76° 33′ W.

The Woosung Light remains white from the bank of the Yangtze to the nort! - westward of the Lighthouse to S. 22° W.; it has been altered to green from S. 22 W. to S. 64° 50′ W., and to red from S. 64° 50′ W. to the left (or western) bank of the Woosung River.

   The Fort Buoy has been shifted 700 feet S. 47° 40′ W. from its former position and moored in 15 feet at low water of spring tides; from it the Woosung Lighthouse now bears S. 87° W., distant 4.9 cables.

   A 10-foot conical Buoy, painted in red and black vertical stripes and surmounted by a black spherical cage, has been moored in 18 feet at low water of spring tides on the north-eastern edge of the Woosung Spit; and from it the Woosung Lighthouse bears S. 62° 15′ W., distant 10.1 cables.

   The least water at present on the line between the outer end of Princes Wharf and the 10-foot Buoy placed on the north-eastern edge of the Woosung Spit is 10 feet; and, on the eastern edge of the green sector, 11 feet at low water of spring tides.

   The Outer Bar Signals now indicate the depth of water on the line when Woosung Light and the red Light on Princes Wharf are in transit.

Directions.

As the narrow part of the deep-water channel across the Woosung Outer Bar is abreast of the Outer Bar Light-boat, extending from 2 cables outside to 2 cables inside of her, inward-bound vessels can afford to open the Leading Marks to the northward as soon as they are 2 cables inside of the Light-boat.

   Outward-bound vessels should steer to pass ¡ng Marks.

cable off the Fort Buoy and then gradually come on to the line of Lead-

Caution.

   There is from 2 to 3 feet less water than that signalled between the 10-foot Buoy off the Woosung Spit and a point 700 feet north of the Outer Bar Light-boat. Vessels taking up an anchorage outside Woosung are requested to avoid so doing near the line of the Outer Bar Leading Marks.

N.B. All bearings given are magnetic.

The following Report of the Acting Registrar General, for the year 1902, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 15th May, 1903.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

REPORT OF THE ACTING REGISTRAR GENERAL FOR THE YEAR 1902.

REGISTRAR GENERAL'S OFFICE,

HONGKONG, 1st April, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to make the following Report on the work of this Department for the year 1902.

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE.

 The revenue collected during the year amounted to $136,888.13, as against $127,566.16 collected in 1901, being an increase of $9,321.97. In Table I will be found a comparative statement of Revenue collected by this Department during the years 1901 and 1902 respectively. Two fresh items of revenue were added during this year, namely, Emigration House Licenses and Licences to Chinese Postmen and Postal Hongs. Very nearly all items of revenue show substantial increases, the chief of which are the revenue from Markets, an increase of $2,656.48; Hawkers, an increase of $1,476.50; Boat Licences, an increase of $899.90; and fees in con- nection with the Marriage Ordinances which show an increase of $776,00.

 The number of street hawkers is gradually increasing. The number of hawkers' licences issued during the year was 13,864, but many of these hawkers only did business for a short time. From the 1st of October until the 31st of December 7,773 different hawkers paid fees.

 Table I (B.) shows the amount of revenue received from the various kinds of boats.

 The number of stalls, shops, etc., and revenue derived from the various markets is given in Table I (C.).

The expenditure during the year was $24,230.33 compared with $16,429.62 in 1901. The increase is caused by the permanent appointment of Mr. CLEMENTI as Assistant Registrar General, the appointment of a Translator, the cost of training Student Interpreters, and the appointment of an Emigration Clerk, which was ren- dered necessary by the fact that, under the Chinese Emigration Ordinance, No. 37 of 1901, female and male Emigrants under 16 years of age have to be examined by an Officer of the Registrar General's Department. The licencing of Boarding Houses for Chinese Emigrants is also placed by the same Ordinance within the duties of the Registrar General.

PÓ LEUNG KUK INCORPORATION ORDINANCE.

(No. 18 of 1893.)

WOMEN AND GIRLS PROTECTION ORDINANCE.

(No. 9 of 1897 and amending Ordinances Nos. 31 of 1899 and 14 of 1900.)

The report of the Pó Leung Kuk Society for the year 1902 has been forwarded to you separately. Table II (4.) gives a Return showing how the women and girls, who came under the protection of the Registrar General, were provided for during the year 1902. Table II (B.) gives a Return showing particulars regarding girls who are required to report themselves to the Registrar General. Table II (C.) gives a return showing the number of persons reported to the Pó Leung Kuk as missing and of those who have been reported as recovered, for the year 1902. The sub- scriptions for the year 1902 amounted to $7,284.25 as compared with $6,823.50 in 1901, and the total revenue, to $8,334.25 compared to $7,873.50 in 1901. The expenditure was $7,563.98. There were 78 inmates on the first of January, 1902, and 66 on the 31st of December, 1902. During the year there were 617 persons

admitted, of which 261 were restored to parents or relatives or were sent to some Benevolent Society in China, 17 sent to Missionary Schools, 10 sent to Convents, 19 married, 10 adopted, and 2 died. In the case of the remaining 310 investiga- tions showed that no action was desirable. The work done by this Benevolent Society during the year 1902 shows a very large increase over the work done in former years. The Working Committee of the Pó Leung Kuk have shewn them- selves at all times most willing in investigating the cases brought under their notice. During the year there were 26 cases in which 36 persons were charged under the Women and Girls Protection Ordinances and there were 101 cases of closing of lodging-houses for prostitutes under Ordinance 31 of 1899.

EMIGRATION.

Table III gives a return showing the number of female and male Emigrants under 16 years of age examined and passed at the Emigration Office and at the Re- gistrar General's Office under The Chinese Emigration Consolidated Ordinance, 1889, as amended by the Chinese Emigration Amendment Ordinance, No. 37 of 1901.

From January 1st till the end of May, 4,873 females and boys were examined at the Harbour Office, an Officer from the Registrar General's Office being present on each occasion. From the 1st of June till the end of December, the examination took place at the Registrar General's Office; and during this period 5,439 female and boy emigrants were examined, making the total for the whole year of 10,312 compared with 9,312 in 1901.

Emigration during the months of Jane and July was at a low ebb, owing to the provisions of Ordinance 37 of 1901 whereby boarding-houses for emigrants had to be licensed, and emigrants had to lodge 48 hours in a licensed boarding- house previous to being examined by the Emigration Officer or Registrar General. After the Chinese had become accustomed to the working of the new law, emi- gration proceeded at the usual rate; but during the two above mentioned months emigrants to the Straits Settlements avoided passing through Hongkong as much as possible. One hundred and thirty-nine emigrants were detained for enquiries, and the usual arrangements were made for restoring to their relatives and friends, those who were found to have been persuaded to emigrate under false pretences.

Boarding-houses for Chinese emigrants are divided into hotels for males and females, an annual licence fee of $50 being charged for these, and emigration houses for males only, the licence fee for which is $10. During the year 1902, thirty-three hotels and seven emigration houses were registered.

Under the Bye-laws for the licencing, regulation and sanitary maintenance of Boarding-houses for Chinese Emigrants made under Section 4 of Ordinance No. 37 of 1901, licences are only issued to persons whose characters are satisfactory, and the Registrar General has power under those Bye-laws to withdraw at any time a licence for a boarding-house, if in his opinion the keeper of such boarding-house has ceased

to be a fit and proper person to keep such boarding-house.

It is hoped that this Ordinance, while not interfering with the legitimate emigration trade, will be of service in preventing certain emigration abuses which undoubtedly exist.

CHINESE POSTAL HONGS.

A

Under Gazette Notice 273 of 1902 made under Section 9 of Ordinance No. 24 of 1902, licences for Chinese Postal Hongs are issued by the Registrar General. fee of $5 is charged for licencing each Postal Hong. The letter-carriers of these hongs are required to have a distinguishing badge worn on the right arm when actually engaged in the delivery of Chinese Hong correspondence. This Hong correspondence has also to pay postage. During the year 44 Postal Hongs were registered with 162 letter-carriers.

The revenue derived from this source was $2,275 compared with $1,750 in 1901.

POPULATIONS.

British and Foreign Community.

18,524

Chinese.

293,300

 The population of the New Territory, according to the census taken by the Police in 1901, was 102,254.

"

MARRIAGES.

(Ordinance No. 14 of 1875, as amended by Ordinances No. 14 of 1896

and No. 15 of 1902.)

 The number of marriages solemnized during the year was 129 as compared with 140 in 1901. The scale of fees has been amended by Ordinance No. 15 of

1902.

BIRTHS AND DEATHS.

(Ordinance No. 16 of 1896, as amended by No. 20 of 1899.)

Table IV (4.) gives the number of Births and Deaths registered during the year. The death rate at various ages and the causes of death will be found in Table IV (B.) and IV (C.).

BIRTHS.

The births registered during the year were as follows:-

Chinese, Non-Chinese,

Males.

Females.

Total.

633

333

966

123

111

234

756

1,200

 This is equal to a general birth-rate of 3.8 per 1,000 as compared with 3.6 in 1901, 3.3 in 1900, and 3.4 in 1899.

 The birth-rate among the non-Chinese community alone was 12.6 per 1,000 as compared with 11.9 per 1,000 in 1901.

 The nationalities of the non-Chinese parents were as follows:-British 98, Portuguese 70, Indian 27, German 16, Malay 16, French 3, Japanese 2, and Spanish and Norwegian one each.

The preponderance of male births over female births is still very marked among the Chinese community, being in the proportion of 190 male births to every 100 female births. The proportion among the non-Chinese community was 111 to 100 as compared with 107 to 100 in the previous year.

The number of the Chinese births registered does not give an accurate record of the total number of births of Chinese that have occurred in the Colony, for many of the infants that die during the first month or so of life remain unregistered, although their deaths must be registered to obtain the necessary burial orders. It has been customary, therefore, to add to the registered births the number of infants of one month old and under that die in the various Convents, or are found by the Police in the streets or in the harbour. The number during 1902 was 239 males and 364 females making a total of 603 and the addition of these figures to the registered Chinese births gives a total of 1,569 as compared with 1,410 during the previous year. The corrected birth-rate is, therefore, 6.1 per 1,000, while among the Chinese alone the rate becomes 5.3 per 1,000. The total Chinese births as calculated in the above manner show a proportion of only 125 male births to every 100 female births, while the dead bodies of infants found in the streets or left at the doors of the Convents show 66 males to every 100 females, the explana- tion being that the Chinese have very little regard for the value of the lives of female children.

During the year 1902 there were 27 prosecutions under the Registration of Births and Deaths Ordinance, in which 31 persons were prosecuted. There were 4 cases for failing to report birth, 22 for unlawful removal of dead bodies, and one case of failing to report death.

INTERPRETATION DEPARTMENT.

 The six Student Interpreters appointed in 1900 continued to make satisfactory progress in their studies.

DISTRICT WATCHMEN.

 A statement of revenue and expenditure for this fund during the year is given in Table VI (4.) and the state of the force on the 31st December, and other particulars will be found in Table VI (B). One hundred and thirty-five cases were brought by the District Watchmen before the Police Magistrates.

 The contributions to the Fund for the year were $17,461.69 as compared with $12,647.96 in 1901, being an increase of $4,831.73. This is chiefly due to raising the rate of contribution from the shops fromper cent, on the assessment to per cent. on the assessment. On the last two quarters of the year the contributions were paid at the increased rate, the contribution for the first two quarters being paid at the old rate of per cent. The expenditure for the year was $12,760.24 and a sum to the amount of $12,695.54 was paid towards the erection of the new District Watch House in Tai Ping Shán. The expenditure in 1901 was $12,697.44. A loan of $5,000 repayable in five years' time was obtained from the Government, for the purpose of providing the necessary funds for building the new District Watchmen's house at Tai Ping Shán, and the Government also gave a grant of $3,000 for the same purpose. The balance at the end of the year was $7,281.93, which must be considered as most satisfactory, and it will be possible to repay immediately the Government loan of $5,000.

 The new District Watchmen's house sitatuted at Tai Ping Shán was com- pleted during the year, and the watchmen belonging to the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Districts took up their quarters there on August 1st. There are quarters on the top floor of this building sufficient for the accomodation of one married European Police Sergeant or for two unmarried Sergeants, who will be placed there by the Captain Superintendent of Police, and who will exercise some supervision over the men stationed there.

682

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 15TH MAY, 1903.

The pay of the District Watchmen is insufficient to attract men of a suitable class, and the District Watchmen's Committee have advised that the pay be increased, and that the increased scale of pay commence from the 1st of January, 1903. During the year, there were seven resignations and eight dismissals.

CHINESE RECREATION GROUND.

A statement of revenue and expenditure is given in Table VII. The total expenditure for the year was $582.46. The revenue obtained from the lease of shops, stalls, etc. amounted to $1,257.02, compared with $1,090.52 in 1901. There is a balance of $3,668.20 to the credit of the Fund.

CHARITABLE FUNDS.

Tables VIII and IX give statement of account of the two Funds administered by this Department.

TUNG WA HOSPITAL.

During the year, the building of the extention to the Tung Wa Hospital in Pó Yan Street, Tai Ping Shán was completed, and will be opened early in 1902. The building of the branch Hospital at Kennedy Town, for the treatment of contagious diseases is nearing completion.

An Ordinance (No. 42 of 1902) entitled An Ordinance to amend The Chinese Hospital Incorporation Ordinance, No. 3 of 1870, was passed by the Legislative Council, and received His Excellency the Governor's consent on the 9th of September, by which the maximum number of the Committee is increased by four additional members. It was found advisable, on account of the additions to the Hospital causing extra work to the Members of the Committee, to increase their number.

Table IV (E.) gives a return of the number of Patients under treatment and other statistics concerning the Tung Wa Hospital during the year 1902. Com- pared with the corresponding figures of last year there was a decrease of patients under treatment and an increase of 9,000 out-patients.

LEGISLATION.

The following are the Ordinances passed in 1902 which more particularly affect the Chinese and this Office:-

No. 21 of 1902.-Pawnbrokers Amendment.

No. 37 of 1902.-Liquor Licences Amendment Ordinance.

No. 39 of 1902.-Junks (Collision) Ordinance.

No. 42 of 1902.-Chinese Hospital Incorporation Amendment Ordinance.

By Ordinance No. 21 the fees for Pawnbrokers' Licences have been increased, and the maximum pawnbrokers' charges fixed. The number of pawnbrokers has largely increased during this year.

By Ordinance No. 37 the licence fees for Liquor Licences have been increased for revenue purposes.

* Including 15,386 Conservancy and Dust Boats of 495,332 tons. Including 17,210 Conservancy and Dust Boats of 637,052 tons.

4. For vessels under the British Flag, this Table shows an increase of 387 ships of 358,148 tons. These figures are, however, misleading, for River Steamers are responsible for an increase of 397 ships of 157,539 tons. This leaves a net decrease of 10 Ocean-going ships, with an increase in tonnage of 200,609 tons.

The above increase in River Steamers is due to the fact that the one vessel which ran in 1901 and not in 1902 is more than counterbalanced by two which started to run at the end of 1901, and two which started to run at the beginning of 1902.

The fall of 10 Ocean-going vessels is a genuine decrease, which loses a por- tion of its significance when we consider the increased size of vessels as evidenced by the increase in tonnage.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22ND MAY, 1903.

For vessels under Foreign Flags, we find a large increase, viz., 1,267 ships of 1,358,709 tons, of which 301 ships of 93,627 tons are due to River Steamers, one new French vessel having started to run in 1902, and another Frenchman having run more often in 1902 than in 1901. The remainder, 966 ships of 1,285,082 tons, is due to-

1. An increase of 453 Norwegian ships of 372,021 tons

and smaller increases in other nationalities.

A sailing ship under Sarawak colours visited the Port during the year; their first appearance in the waters of the Colony.

5. The actual number of ships of European construction (exclusive of River Steamers and Steam Launches), entering the Port during 1902, was 718, of which 350 were British, and 368 Foreign. These 718 ships entered 4,047 times, giving a total tonnage entered of 6,284,258 tons. Thus, compared with 1901, 37 more ships entered 477 more times, and gave a total tonnage increased by 728,926

SUNDAY CARGO-WORKING.

(Ordinance No. 6 of 1891.)

18. During the year, 458 permits were issued under the provisions of the Ordinance.

MARINE SURVEYOR'S SUB-DEPARTMENT.

20. Return No. XXIII gives a report of the work performed by this Sub- Department during the year 1902.

The total tonnage of vessels surveyed during the year 1902, amounted to 417,974 tons, an increase of 41,435 tons over tonnage surveyed during 1901. Of this total tonnage, 337,551 tons represent the tonnage of vessels surveyed for passenger certificates; 67,923 the tonnage of vessels for bottom inspection only, and 12,500 the tonnage of licensed launches. The number of licensed launches surveyed in 1902 was 210, a decrease of 7, as compared with the number surveyed in 1901.

In the Return the surveys and reports on Government Pumping Stations, Disinfectors, Steam Road Roller, Stone Crusher, Dredger and Pontoon Crane do not appear, Government Launches now number 17, they are surveyed twice a year and take up a considerable amount of time and attention of this sub-department.

The revenue derived from the work of this sub-department amounts to $19,458.24, an increase of $3,467.20 over the revenue for 1901.

In view of the fact that the fees for surveys of steam-ships for passenger certi- ficates having been doubled since 1st November, 1902, it may safely be estimated that the revenue of this sub-department for 1903 will be well over $30,000.

GENERAL.

23. This is probably the last Annual Report of this Department which will be signed by me, and being so, I should like to be allowed to make herein a few remarks on the subject of the Bridge across the Harbour which I advocated in the Annual Report for 1901.

I have been favoured with information concerning a bridge about to be built across Sydney Harbour, which is to be 3,000 feet long, and 170 feet above water level. This height is necessary to allow of the passage of ships under the bridge, a require- ment not called for in our case, owing to our good fortune in having an entrance at each end of the Harbour.

The Sydney bridge crosses a portion of the Harbour where the depths are from 6 to 12 fathoms, and is to carry two lines of railway, two roadways of 30 feet each, and two footways of 12 feet each, so that the deck cannot be less than 120 feet wide, 45 feet wider than our new Praya. Tenders have been called for, and so far as my.information on that point goes, it seems that those received vary between 14 and 13 millions Sterling.

Hongkong's need for easy communication between the two sides of the Har- bour is, in my opinion, very great, probably greater than that of Sydney. Shipping has increased steadily during the last 20 years from 13 million tons to 21 million tons, entered and cleared. In 20 years also (1881-1901, the population has increased from 160,402 to 283,975. During the last 10 years (the period during which the statis- tics have been kept in the Harbour Department) Cargo, landed and shipped, has increased from 6 million tons to 83 million tons, and the local passenger traffic in Junks and Launches has risen from 44 million to 73 million.

The cry is for more room. Both for inhabitants and for shipping. From a sanitary, economical, and commercial point of view, it is desired. More room for shipping can only be obtained by dredging some of the shallower parts of the Harbour, more room for the inhabitants is already at hand on the Kowloon side of the water; I think it would be well if, instead of providing further space for the increasing population by means of reclamations from the water area, already insufficient for the needs of shipping, all reclamation at or about the harbour frontage was prohibited, and Kowloon and the New Territory utilized and developed, a course which cannot be thoroughly carried out until communication is made easy.

Hongkong has arrived at its present state of prosperity principally by reason of its natural advantages, first, its geographical position, and, secondly, its excellent harbour. Nothing we can do or leave undone can destroy the former of these advantages, it behoves us, however, to see that it is not rendered ineffective by reason of our reducing the capability of the latter to accommodate the ever-increas- ing amount of shipping, which has been frequently and truly referred to as "the life-blood of the Colony."

Taking Sydney as a rough guide, I suggest that the cost of such a bridge as I advocate will be amply provided for with $9,000,000.

737

738

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22ND MAY, 1903.

The present reported passenger traffic between Hongkong and Kowloon is not less than 6,000,000 annually, which, I suggest, would be increased 50% by the facilities offered by the bridge to the increased population of Kowloon and the New Territory, for, once the bridge is decided on, the other side of the Harbour will begin to increase, and the development will go on side by side with the construction of the bridge. Assuming, then, 9,000,000 passengers annually, and further assum- ing 25° of them to be of a class capable of paying a very modest toll of 5 cents and the remaining 75°, to be coolies at 1 cent, this would give an annual income from the bridge toll of $180,000, which will be 2° on the suggested cost of $9,000,000. In addition, there would be a toll on vehicles, animals, etc., the value of which cannot now be estimated, but would be considerable.

I am not prejudiced, possibly other means are forthcoming for securing the desired end. A tunnel has been suggested, and no doubt offers some advanta- ges not possessed by my scheme, but after consideration I am still in favour of the bridge. However, whether the means adopted be bridge, tunnel, or anything else, I submit confidently that easy communication must be had with the Kowloon side unless we are content to spoil our natural harbour, while leaving Kowloon and the New Territory undeveloped.

GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.--No. 339.

   The following Report on the Botanical and Afforestation Department, for the year 1902, is published.

By Command,

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 19th May, 1903.

REPORT ON THE BOTANICAL AND AFFORESTATION DEPARTMENT, FOR THE YEAR 1902.

No. 11.

BOTANICAL AND AFFORESTATION DEPARTMENT,

HONGKONG, 4th April, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit the Annual Report on this Department for the information of His Excellency the Governor.

STAFF.

2. The Superintendent left for home on the 6th of August on four months' vacation leave, with the intention of retiring at the end of that time.

3. The Assistant Superintendent was acting as Head of the Department from the 7th August until the end of the year.

4. Sickness amongst the Chinese Staff was very prevalent throughout the year, 1,218 days having been recorded. Much of the sickness was attributable to the epidemic of Dengue Fever last summer.

BOTANIC GARDENS.

5. Plant Sales and Loans.-The revenue derived from these last year was $936.01 as compared with $958.18 for the previous year. Of this amount the sum of $688.13 was received for 1,596 plants sold, and $247.88 for 3,182 plants on loan.

6. Drought.-Much time and labour were expended during the first four months of the year on account of the exceptionally dry weather and the inadequacy of the water supply for the Gardens. Coolies were employed to carry water from the Garden Road Nullah where there is always a good supply.

7. Typhoons. These were very frequent during July, but did very little dam- age to trees and shrubs. On the 2nd of August, however, there was a strong gale accompanied by a heavy rainfall which wrecked many large trees in the streets and did some damage to the Gardens, but not so much as might have been expected from the force of the wind.. Two landslips occurred in the New Garden-one at the east end of the Gallery Walk and the other above the same walk.

8. Rockeries. Most of the plants in the large rockeries at the north-east entrance to the Old Garden, and those in the small rockery at the west end of the Rose-bed Terrace were taken up; those which were worn out thrown away and new ones planted in their places.

9. Plant Houses.-Nos. 2 and 3 houses, mentioned in last year's report as being in course of construction, were finished during the year and are a great im- provement on the former structures. The rockery at the south end has been pro- vided with a bamboo roof similar to the roofs of the plant houses.

10. Walks. In paragraph 13 of last year's report it is stated that repairs to walks were suspended between March, 1900, and October, 1901. As a matter of fact, about 600 square yards were re-surfaced with cement and granite during that time, rather more than was done between October, 1901, and the time the report was written.

11. Elephant's Head Banana.--When Mr. E. H. WILSON, who was from 1899- 1902 collecting plants and seeds in China for Messrs. J. H. VEITCH & SONS, was here in 1899, he gave me a few seeds of a Banana he had collected in Yunnan, and informed me that the plant was known by the natives, who grew it for the centre of the stem which they used as food, as the Elephant's Head Banana. Three of the seeds germinated and two of the plants thus obtained arrived at maturity and

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 29TH MAY, 1903.

flowered and fruited last year. The species appeared to be new, although closely allied to Musa glauca, Roxb., so I drew up a description and made a sketch of the plant which I sent to the Gardeners' Chronicle where it is described and figured, on pages 450 and 451 respectively of Vol. XXXII, Third Series, of that Journal, under the name of Musa Wilsoni. The native name evidently refers to the inflores- cence which has a striking resemblance to an elephant's head. The two plants were objects of beauty for a considerable time on the lower terrace in the Old Garden, but as the species is monocarpic they died after fruiting. I hope to obtain some young plants from the seeds saved, as it is a most interesting acquisition.

12. Heterostylism in Stachytarpheta indica, Vahl.-In Hongkong there are two forms of this plant, which is a common road-side weed-one with dark blue flowers with leaves having a strongly marked venation, which I take to be the type, and another with light blue flowers having leaves with a much less prominent venation. On an examination of the flowers of these two varieties I found that the pistils in the dark blue flowers protruded beyond the corolla tube, the stigmas being con- siderably above the anthers, but in some of the light blue flowers the stigmas only reached to the top of the corolla tube and just above the anthers, whilst in others the stigmas were below the anthers. I examined the flowers of a large number of plants and found all the styles of any particular plant to be always of the same length.

13. Additions to the Hongkong Flora.-The following plants have not been recorded from Hongkong before, so far as I am aware.

Calanthe curculigoides, Wall.-In March, 1901, I discovered a plant on Mount Parker, but as it was not in flower it could not be named with certainty. It flowered in October last year and proved to be the above.

Ipomoea carnosa, R. Br.-Found in flower on the seashore at Chai Wan Tsai last December, growing amongst Ipomoea biloba.

Erythrina indica, Lam.-This plant was also found at Chai Wan Tsai in December, probably naturalized, as it is cultivated in Hongkong.

Senecio vulgaris, Linu.-A specimen of the common groundsel was found in the Gardens in December, probably introduced with European seeds.

Sphenoclea zeylanica, Gaertn.-This plant was discovered at Sookunpo, in a swamp in August last, and later on in the year I found it at Little Hongkong.

Eurya distichophylla, Hemsl.-Male and female plants of this were found on Mount Parker in November last. I take it to be this species as it agrees fairly well with HEMSLEY'S description in the Index Flora Sinensis, Vol. I, p. 77. There is a specimen of this plant in the Herbarium of the Botanic Gardens under the name of Eurya acuminata, found by Mr. FORD on Mount Parker, but apparently it is not that species although closely allied to it, as, besides other differences, it has dark purple (nearly black) flowers, whereas according to KURZ, Eurya acuminata has white flowers.

Fatoua pilosa, Gaudich.-A plant found on rubbish heaps and detected on the bank east of College Gardens, in October last.

Scutellaria indica, Linn., var. insignis.-This plant was first found by Mr. FORD On Tai Mo-shan; afterwards it was collected by myself on Lantao Island, and in October of last year I discovered it in Hongkong on a high hill, west of Washer- men's Ravine, Causeway Bay. HEMSLEY in the Index Flora Sinensis, Vol. II, p. 295, says that specimens had been received from Dr. HENRY intermediate in character between this and the ordinary S. indica. As the plant under review evidently maintains its character, having been discovered in three different localities, I have given it a varietal name. It is an exceedingly pretty thing, quite unlike ordinary S. indica, and well worth growing as a foliage plant. There are two or three plants under cultivation in the Botanic Gardens, and I hope to send a living specimen to Kew later on.

Peperomia pellucida, Kunth.-I am not quite sure about this plant, but as it is the species common about Georgetown, Penang, (CURTIS), it might have reach- ed here. It is a common weed in the vicinity of the Gardens during the summer months, but originally a native of the West Indies and Brazil.

Mirabilis Jalapa, Linn.-This American plant is colonized in Hongkong as in other parts of China.

16. Rainfall.-The total rainfall for the year, as registered in the Botanic Gardens, was 110.03 inches. The first ten years' record is now complete, and last year's fall is 23.52 inches above the average for that period (1893-1902). The fall for the first four months of the year was 5.57 inches below the average for the cor- responding months of the last ten years. In May, June, July and August 97.65 inches were registered, being 39.68 inches above the average for the same months during the last decade. The last four months of the year showed a fall below the average, for the ten years' period, of 10.55 inches. The greatest fall was in August, 31.95 inches, and the smallest in February, 0.02 inches. Statistics are given in Appendices A and B.

17. Herbarium and Library.--Very little progress has been made with Her- barium work for some years, and there is a mass of material awaiting incorporation. Many books also require binding. Annual Reports, Bulletins, &c., have been received from the under-mentioned Establishments, to the chiefs of whom the thanks of the Department are due:---

MOUNTAIN LODGE GROUNDS.

18. During the year great progress was made with the laying out of these Gardens, and before the Superintendent left for home, most of the work in them had been completed. Work was carried on afterwards as far as funds would allow, but there are still some small matters to finish in the Gardens, as well as nearly the whole of the grounds, amounting to about 45 acres, which surround the building. The typhoon on the 2nd of August did very great damage to the shrubs and plants which had only been put in during the previous month, and consequently they have not made as much progress as they would have done under more favourable cir-

cumstances.

KING'S PARK, Kowloon.

19. His Excellency Sir WILLIAM J. GASCOIGNE, K.C.M.G., cut the first sod of this Park on August 6th, and on the same day Lady GASCOIGNE planted a camphor tree in the Park, in connection with the festivities then being celebrated in comme- moration of the Coronation of His Majesty the King.

20. Nothing further, however, was done in laying out the grounds, but previous to the Superintendent's departure for England, a sum of $5,000 was placed in the Estimates of the Public Works Department for 1903, for carrying on the work.

WESTERN DISTRICT PARK,

21. The land on the north side of Lower Richmond Road was treated in a somewhat similar way to that which had been done on the south side of the same road in 1898, but not so much was done in the way of beautifying the place,

ECONOMIC GARDEN.

22. Perhaps it is as well to place on record the fact that Mr. LI PAK is doing excellent experimental work on his estate at Castle Peak. He informs me that his grounds amount to about 600 mow, (about 60 acres), and he has under cultivation sugar cane, mulbery trees, fruit trees, flowers and vegetables. Mr. LI PAK has adopted western methods in his cultural experiments, and he deserves every success in his undertaking.

23. Last year cuttings of Honolulu and Province Wellesley sugar cane were supplied to him by this Department, and these were grown side by side with the Chinese variety.

24. Samples of juice obtained from the three varieties were recently analysed by Mr. FRANK BROWNE, the Government Analyst, and the following is an extract from his Report:-

FORESTRY IN HONGKONG.

26. Tree Planting.-The total number of trees planted in Hongkong was 6,402.

27. Tree Seed Sowing.-A quantity of pine tree seed was sown broadcast which was estimated to produce 66,000 trees. Owing, however, to the exceptionally dry spring very little of the seed germinated, so that the actual number of trees produced is very far short of the estimate. Where necessary, sowings will be made again this year. Statistics are given in Appendix C.

779

780

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 29TH MAY, 1903.

28. Grass Fires.-A very large number of fires occurred during the year and 22,607 trees were destroyed. The great.destruction of trees was attributable, no doubt, to the very dry state of vegetation in general, prevailing during the early months of the year. Of the 49 fires recorded, including one near Cheung Sha Wan, New Territory, no less than 39 were reported in January, February, March and April, and these were the means of destroying 21,486 trees. The other 10 occurred in September, October and November and, as vegetation was much less dry at that Further time than in the early months of the year, only 1,211 trees were killed. statistics are given in Appendix D.

29. The Police Department rendered great assistance in extinguishing these fires and the several officers concerned deserve great thanks for their timely help, without which many more trees would have been destroyed.

30. Thinning of Plantations.-This branch of Forestry was almost at a stand- still for the first four months of the year when work in other directions was being actively prosecuted. May, June, July and August were exceptionally wet which rendered the work of felling exceedingly difficult. Only 8,124 were felled and these were sold for $232.44. Statistics are given in Appendix E.

31. Fire Barriers.-About 33 miles of old barriers were cleared and about one mile of new ones made.

32. Protective Service.-The number of trees reported as illicitly cut was 752. 33. The Forest Guards had 41 cases before the Magistrate and convictions were obtained in 39 cases.

34. Banian Trees.-In 1901 the large Ficus retusa trees on the west side of Robinson Road, between Elgin and Austin Roads, Kowloon, were lowered, as the Public Works Department proposed to do away with the bank and make a foot-path on that side of the road. In all 29 trees were successfully transplanted.

FORESTRY IN THE NEW TERRITORY.

35. Tree Planting.-The number of trees planted amounted to 31,746, the majority of which were the ordinary pine tree. Most of these were planted along the Taipo Road and a few at Pingshan. Included in the total are 2,781 camphor trees planted along the Taipo Road, and 112 Castilloa elastica planted below the same road, between the fourth and fifth mile-stones.

36. Tree Seeds sown.-Pine tree seeds were sown broadcast in the catchment area of the new reservoir, which includes the hills between the sixth and seventh mile- stones. A sufficient quantity of seed was sown to produce 46,800 trees but, as in the case of Hongkong, very few of the seeds have produced trees.

37. 24,200 sites were sown to replace the failures of the previous year. tistics are given in Apendix G.

――

Sta-

38. Camphor Trees. The Superintendent made experiments in sowing cam- phor tree seeds in pots and planting the young trees out in the middle of the summer when about five months old, with the hope of finding out a cheaper method of rearing this particular tree than had been practised hitherto.

39. The seeds germinated successfully, and the young trees were about 6 inches high when planted out, some in prepared trenches and others in pits, but they have made very little progress since, and do not give much promise of success.

40. There is ample evidence that camphor trees will grow in the New Territory from the fine specimens to be seen at different places over there. There are some noble looking trees at Ho Sheung Hung; seven, which I measured at 3 or 4 feet from the ground, had the following circumferences and were about 75 feet high:-

20 feet 7 inches.

15 feet 9 inches.

13 feet 3 inches.

11 feet 4 inches.

8 feet 6 inches.

6 feet 8 inches.

These trees the villagers designated "small pine-trees and brushwood" and endea- voured, fruitlessly I am glad to say, to obtain permission to cut them down.

41. Fire Barriers.-About 4 miles of old barriers, 15 feet wide, were cleared to protect the young trees on both sides of the Taipo Road.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 29TH MAY, 1903.

42. Firewood.-Through the courtesy of the Captain Superintendent of Police, Mr. FORD arranged to have the approximate quantities of firewood exported from certain districts in the New Territory recorded. These returns give, taking a load as 70 catties, a total of about 60,000 piculs for the year from the four places-Shatin, Saikung, Lantao Island and Sheung Shui. This does not represent, however, the total quantity exported, as firewood comes from other places in the New Territory besides those mentioned. Putting the cost of a picul at 75 cents it gives the subs- tantial figure of $45,000, which, after paying for labour and all other expenses, must leave a considerable margin of profit. The thanks of the Department are due to the Captain Superintendent of Police and his officers for their kind co-operation in the matter. Statistics are given in Appendix F.

REVENUE.

43. The total Revenue of the Department is given in Appendix H.

SIR, I have the honour to submit my report for the year 1902.

I have the honour to be,

The Honourable

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

WILLIAM HUNTER.

J. M. ATKINSON, M.B.,

Principal Civil Medical Officer,

etc., etc., etc.

SIR, I have the honour to submit, for the information of His Excellency the Governor, the following Report on the work done in the Bacteriological Department during the year 1902.

As there

I arrived in the Colony from London on the 27th February, 1902. was no Bacteriological Laboratory in the Colony, and no suitable place for the immediate establishment of such, the Principal Civil Medical Officer proposed that I should be allowed to establish, temporarily, a Laboratory in the Kennedy Town Infectious Diseases Hospital. This suggestion I gladly availed myself of, and with the assistance of Dr. THOMSON, the Medical Officer in charge of that Institution, I was able to obtain part of the office and dispensary of the Hospital for laboratory accommodation.

A serious drawback to the immediate commencement of my duties was occasioned by the loss, through shipwreck, of the whole of my bacteriological apparatus shortly after it had left London. The Crown Agents for the Colonies were instructed to re-order the apparatus with the least possible delay, but notwithstanding all their efforts, the whole of the apparatus for the equipment of a Bacteriological Laboratory did not arrive in Hongkong until the end of June, 1902, that is to say, about four months after my arrival in the Colony.

In the month of March, the Principal Civil Medical Officer requested that the work at the Government Public Mortuary should be undertaken by me. To this proposal I gladly assented, as much of the work there was of a bacteriological nature, e.g., the examination of cases of plague and cholera. I commenced my duties at the Mortuary on the 20th March, 1902.

Immediately on commencing my duties at the Public Mortuary, a regular system of post-mortem and bacteriological examinations on rats was instituted. The services of four Japanese medical men were obtained in May for this particular work, and all rats found dead or alive in the Colony were regularly examined for plague by these gentlemen, who worked under my direction.

On the 13th of October, 1902, these Japanese doctors returned to Japan, and the services of three qualified Chinese Doctors were obtained. Accordingly on the 14th of October, 1902, Drs. Ho Ko TSUN, LEE YIN SZE, and CHAN FAI KWONG, each of whom had been trained in the Hongkong College of Medicine for Chinese, commenced their duties as assistants in the Bacteriological Department. Dr. Ho

-

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE 5TH JUNE, 1903.

Ko TSUN was appointed Laboratory Assistant, his duties being mainly to assist me with routine pathological and bacteriological work, while Drs. LEE YIN SZE and CHAN FAI KWONG were appointed Bacteriological Assistants, and assisted me in the routine examination of rats sent to the Public Mortuary.

I take the opportunity at this point of bearing testimony to the excellent services which have been rendered by these qualified Chinese Doctors. I found them well trained and anxious at all times to take a thorough grasp of the oppor- tunities vouchsafed to them of gaining a knowledge of Pathology and Bacteriology. They grasped the somewhat delicate technique for bacteriological work with wonderful rapidity, and I have repeatedly noted the care which they bestowed on the systematic examination of enormous numbers of rats.

I regret to say that at the commencement of the Plague epidemic of 1902, the Caretaker of the Public Mortuary fell a victim to the disease.

The Assistant Caretaker was appointed in his place, and has so far performed his somewhat difficult duties with care and to my satisfaction.

It is now the practice to have all coolies connected with the Public Mortuary inoculated with plague vaccine as prepared by Professor HAFFKINĖ.

During the year, 2,816 human bodies were examined at the Public Mortuary. These figures, I understand, represent a number of post-mortems larger than in any previous year since the Institution was established. Further, I am sure that these figures are probably unique. I know of no institution where, given suitable accommodation, apparatus, and assistance, greater scope would be afforded for pathological and bacteriological research.

In addition to the routine post-mortem work, there have been 117,839 rats examined bacteriologically, approximately 400 rats examined daily during the year. Of these, 2,015 were found to be infected with Plague.

During the autumn of 1902, the Government Vaccine Institute was transferred from the Medical to the Bacteriological Department.

In the month of October, the management of the Institute was taken over by me from the Acting Colonial Veterinary Surgeon.

The preparation of Small-pox Vaccine was begun in the month of October. So far the vaccine sent out from the Institute has given the utmost satisfaction.

Since my arrival in the Colony, a considerable amount of pure bacteriological work has been done. Considerable difficulty was experienced, however, in obtain- ing suitable apparatus for experimental work.

During the months of May, June and July, Professor SIMPSON and I carried out a series of very extensive researches in regard to the possibility of producing Plague in all lower animals, more particularly in those animals.which are closely associated with man-calves, sheep, goats, pigs, fowls, etc. The results, notwith- standing the conditions under which the experiments were performed, were of a highly satisfactory nature, and should set at rest much of the hitherto varied discussion on this subject. The details of these experiments and the interpretation of the results will of course be fully dealt with by Professor SIMPSON in his report. Had it not been for the great assistance rendered by the Principal Civil Medical Officer and the Government Analyst in supplying certain apparatus, the research could not have been carried out. During the summer a series of pathological and bacteriological examinations were made at the Dairy Farm, Pokfulam, and the Kennedy Town Slaughter houses, on cattle suffering from what appeared to me to be a form of Septicemia Hæmorrhagica.

What has been felt during the past year is the want of a properly equipped and centrally situated Bacteriological Institute. As already mentioned, the Medical Department has allowed me part of the office and the dispensary in Kennedy Town Hospital. Any bacteriological research which one may propose to undertake has to be done there, and this Hospital can be shown to be a most inconvenient place for carrying out bacteriological work. In the first place, there is no accommoda- tion, and secondly it is very inaccessible owing to its distance from the other branches of the Department, namely, the Vaccine Institute and the Public Mortuary. It has been a matter of regret that, owing to these circumstances, the preparation of plague vaccine and scrum, &c., has been quite out of the question. At the present time, however, I am glad to be in a position to state that a con- venient site has been obtained for a Bacteriological Institute. Its completion is now only a matter of time.

GENERAL REMARKS ON THE CAUSES OF DEATH.

17

During the early part of the year a small epidemic of Small-pox occurred. Thirty-nine cases were examined at the Public Mortuary. The first case was re- ceived in the 7th week of the year, and from that time onwards the number of cases per week increased slowly until the 14th week of the year. Subsequent to this date, the cases became much fewer. The majority of the cases occurred in young children. The type of the disease was usually severe, confluent Small-pox forming by far the largest number of cases.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH JUNE, 1903.

The number cases of Dysentery is small. In the two cases returned as the cause of death, the pathological changes were marked to an extreme degree. Dur- ing the year one frequently came across cases showing limited Dysenteric ulcera- tion, altogether insufficient however to occasion death.

Septicemia, apart from cases of plague, was the cause of death in 4 cases, 3 of them being due to infection with Streptococeus pyogenes, the other to Pneumococcus.

The case of Leprosy was of the tubercular variety.

Tuberculosis accounted for the death of a large number, namely 151. The majority of cases occurred in children or young adults. In the general miliary forms, the lesions were of the most pronounced character, pathological changes being present in all the internal organs to such a degree as is scarcely ever seen in Europe.

Two cases of Tubercular Pericarditis were found, typical minute miliary nodules being scattered over the serous surfaces of the Pericardium. Numerous tubercle bacilli were found in those nodules in each case. In one of the cases, the infection could be traced to caseating mediastinal glands, the other organs in the body being apparently healthy.

Eleven cases of Tubercular Enteritis and 3 of Tubercular Peritonitis occurred ---a rather large number. All of the cases presented very pronounced lesions, and the tubercle bacillus was abundant in all the cases.

A large number of cases of death of infants have been registered under the name Marasmus. This term, which really means a gradual dying off, has been employed to designate certain conditions which one meets with frequently in infants, and which are the result of obscure causes, namely, congenital syphilis, defective nourishment, intestinal atrophy, diarrhoea, &c. The cases, as already mentioned, are all infants from a few days to a few weeks old. A post-mortem examination held on such a body reveals practically nothing excepting acute hyperemia of the internal organs, no definite pathological lesion being discoverable.

Five cases of Aneurism were met with during the year, all of them being of the saccular form. At this point it is interesting to note the great prevalence of atheroma amongst the Chinese. In almost every adult, say after the age of 20 or 25, one will, if carefully looked for, find patches of atheroma in the aorta and other more peripherally situtated vessels.

The cases of Appendicitis are numerous.

                         In several instances the vermi- form appendix had been rounded off in a ball-like fashion containing its interior pus from which pure cultures of B. coli commune were obtained.

The usual large numbers of cases of Fracture of the spleen occurred. In all cases the spleen was previous pathological and more brittle than normally. In hardly a single instance were there any signs of external violence.

Total number of cases 379.

Cholera,

A very severe outbreak of this disease occurred during 1902 in Hongkong. The first case which was received at the Public Mortuary was during the 10th week. From that time onwards the number of cases examined increased rapidly, till the 19th week of the year was reached. After the 21st week, the number of cases diminished rapidly, with the exception of a slight recrudescence during the 33rd, 34th, and 35th weeks of the year. From the accompanying Chart, a good idea is given of the course of the disease, and such a chart is quite typical of an epidemic of cholera in sub-tropical countries. It will be noted that there is a sudden advent of the disease and then a more or less sudden disappearance. Again one will be able to note another important point, namely, the appearance of the disease as soon as the temperature begins to rise, and its disappearance co-incident with a fall in temperature. The epidemic under discussion began approximately about the beginning of April and was present more or less continuously until the month of October. Thus this outbreak of Cholera is quite in harmony with the investigations made by those working in other sub-tropical parts of the world. Although epidemics of cholera have been known to occur during the colder seasons of the year, yet the majority occur in summer. Thus the 1902 epidemic of cholera in Hongkong corresponds favourably with the results of HIRSCH, which are based on the investigation of 920 epidemics and are quite indisputable. Of these 920

823

THE HONGKONG‍GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, ɔ̃тп JUNE, 1903.

epidemics, 647, or 70 per cent., took place during the summer months. If we omit those in regions where the mean temperature for the year does not exceed 15 C., we have 668 epidemics, or 74 per. cent., which occur during the same period of time.

The post-mortem examination of the 379 cases of Asiatic Cholera has supplied some interesting details as to the pathological changes which may be met. with.

At the commencement of the epidemic, it was noticed that a larger number than usual of deaths from intestinal diseases were reported, these cases being classified as diarrhhoa, infectious diarrhoea, choleraic diarrhoea, or cholera. In regard to this point it is important to remember that the diagnosis may be specially difficult in the first cases where no epidemic yet exists. The first cases of an epidemic are frequently violent and run a rapidly fatal course. Appearances similar to cholera are also met with in severe cholera nostras, and acute poisoning with arsenic, tartar emetic, or mercury, and frequently discussions have arisen at the beginning of an epidemic as to whether the disease in point was true Asiatic Cholera or Cholera Nostras. Fortunately we possess to-day a means of decisively recognising almost all cases. With the help of the method which KocH gave us in 1893, there can be no doubt about the disease being Cholera, if the result of the examination is positive. During the past year, this method has been applied in every case at the commencement of the epidemic, although after the disease had fully established itself as an epidemic, cases were received at the Mortuary which were so striking and characteristic that the microscopic test was alone employed, and owing to the prejudices of the Chinese, as partial a post-mortem made as possible.

So far as the anatomical changes are concerned, it has been observed that the more rapid the death, the slighter the post-mortem changes. It was the routine custom at the Mortuary during 1902 to examine the intestinal contents for the vibrio cholera in almost every case, and certainly some cases-which to the naked eye did not warrant a diagnosis of cholera-proved themselves, after bacteriological examination, to be undoubted cases of the disease. This was more particularly the case in individuals who had previously been enfeebled by other diseases, e.g., Beri- beri, Tuberculosis, Dysentery, &c. Further. the first cases of the epidemic, which are usually of a severe and rapidly fatal character, were markedly devoid of any severe or typical choleraic post-mortem change.

In general, the post-mortem appearances met with during the epidemic were the following:-The external appearances, including the Boxer Pose, were in the majority of cases well defined. The cyanosis present during life and the injection of the superficial veins were in inost-cases absent. Post-mortem rigidity was a marked feature, and further those peculiar and long-standing post-mortem muscular contractions which may be called forth by light tapping were sometimes found well marked. This phenomenon was found to be most frequent in the extremities.

In addition, these bodies were scarcely ever found in a state of decomposition even during the height of summer. This, which is a feature of subjects dead from Cholera, is probably due to the anhydramic coadition of the tissues in general.

The examination of the abdomen is in all cases of peculiar interest. The rose colour of the small intestine and the sticky, slimy, and dry appearance of the peritoneum are striking contrasts to the normal colour of the stomach and large intestine. In a large number of cases so intense was the acute hyperæmic reaction that instead of the rose red colour being met with, the whole small intestine was converted into a dark purple mass of congestion with hemorrhages into the in- testinal mucous membrane and with the presence of a large amount of broken down blood detritus in the intestinal contents. In these cases, the intestinal contents are of a deeply blood stained colour, and the microscopic examinations in all instances demonstrated the presence of enormous numbers of vibrio cholera, practically a pure culture.

The contents of the intestine are so well known as not to require special reference.

The other abdominal organs present little pathologically. In women hæmor- rhagic extravasations were commonly met with about the internal genital organs. Frequently the women examined were pregnant. In such cases the fœtus was always examined, but apart from such pathological changes as would be produced by intoxication, nothing was found. No cholera producing micro-organisms were ever found present in the foetus.

1. The first case was Septicæmic in type.

2. The epidemic was mainly established by the prevalence of the bubonic

type of the disease.

3. The epidemic was prolonged chiefly by a continuance of the Septicæmic

type of the disease.

4. Pneumonic types of the disease were most frequent at the commence-

ment of the epidemic.

5. The Bubonic type was most frequent during the middle of the epidemic. 6. The Septicæmic type was most frequent towards the end of the epidemic. 7. The Pneumonic tpye was most prevalent amongst young children.

8. The Bubonic and Septicæmic types were mostly found between the ages

of 20 and 40.

9. After the age of 40 the number of cases of plague diminished rapidly.

So far as the pathological anatomy of plague is concerned, one has nothing to add to the voluminous investigations and writings of Indian Commissions, and the valuable researches of WILMS in Hongkong. The description given by him agrees entirely with my own results.

The question of the bacteriological diagnosis of plague cases is one of the most important if trustworthy results are to be obtained. The methods adopted are too well known to be again recorded.

Beri-Beri.

During the year, 149 post-mortem examinations have been made upon the bodies of persons dead from this disease. All forms of the disease are met with, but for general purposes we may speak of a dropsical form and an atrophic form. So far as 1902 is concerned, the dropsical form of the disease has formed by far the larger number of cases.

The pathological anatomy of this disease is of great interest, and as no recent references in regard to the post-mortem appearances as met with in Hongkong have been made, the following is of interest :----

The Dropsical Form.-On superficial examination, the dead body of a case of Beri-beri is frequently characteristic a cyanotic, swollen face with protruding eyes, foaming mouth, and swelling of the veins of the neck are all frequently met with.

On Section-a characteristic appearance is the great infiltration of the subcu- taneous tissues with serous and mucoid like fluid.

The pericardium is often distended with fluid, which quantities, when one considers the normal size of the sac. yellow colour.

may reach enormous The fluid is of a clear

The heart is enlarged, sometimes enormously, and the condition of the ventri- cles is usually dilatation of the right ventricle with contraction and thickening of the left ventricle. The cardiac muscle is frequently in a condition of fatty de- generation. On opening the heart, enormous quantities of extremely dark red blood escapes, which is perfectly fluid. On allowing it to stand for a few minutes freely exposed to the air, it becomes of a brighter red colour and begins to clot. As is generally now accepted, this peculiarity on the part of Beri-beri blood is accounted for by the fact of the presence of an excess of CO2.

The aorta, arteries and veins are frequently the seat of extensive atheromatous degeneration.

The lungs are as a rule edematous and emphysematous. The empyhsema may be so extreme as to completly cover the pericardial sac.

Hydro thorax is frequently present and is often bilateral.

So far as the abdomen is concerned, there is usually a certain amount of Hydroperitoneum. This may be extreme. The fluid as in the other cavities is clear, yellowish and viscid in character.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH JUNE, 1903.

 The intestines, and in particular the small intestine, present a somewhat typical appearance. The slaty-grey colour, the thickened walls and swelling of the intestinal mucous membrane are quite characteristic. In a few cases punctiform hæmorrhages may be present either in the serous or in the mucous membranes.

The liver is generally enlarged, with increased specific gravity and weight. This is mainly due to venous hyperemia and the presence of an increased amount of fibrous tissue. A large majority of livers examined show fine cirrhosis.

The pancreas is usually fibrous.

 The kidneys are congested and slightly cirrhotic. Occasionally nephritis or hæmorrhage is present.

 The spleen is very variable in size, and is in the majority of cases fibrous. is very congested.

It

The brain and spinal cord are usually infiltrated with serous fluid. They are firm on consistence and hyperæmic.

To recapitulate, oue may say that the main changes met with are dropsical accumulations, venous hyperomias, and general fibrotic accumulations in the various internal organs.

In the liver and spleen this fibrotic change is usually well marked by the occurrence over the capsule of these organs of localised whitish grey thickenings which ramify and branch in a tree-like fashion. This peculiar form of capsular thickening is met with in other diseases, such as chronic malaria, etc., but in beri- beri it is usually peculiarly well defined.

In atrophic cases the appearance of the dead body is one of anæmia. The dropsy is absent and the body appears usually in a state of extreme emaciation. The condition of the heart and other internal organs are in correspondence with those in the dropsical form, only there is the absence of fluid accumulation.

In a few instances microscopical preparations have been made of the organs, muscles and nerves of cases of Beri-beri. but the results have not so far been completed.

The routine bacteriological examination of dead and living cases of Beri-beri has been carried out in a few cases, but so far the results have been unsatisfactory.

BODIES TOO DECOMPOSED FOR POST-MORTEM EXAMINATION.

During the year 1902, 402 bodies, including one skeleton, were returned as "too decomposed." These figures show a marked increase as compared with the preceding year, and this is probably accounted for by an approximate increase in the number of bodies found in the harbour, on neighbouring islands, the hillside and the streets. This question of decomposed bodies at the Public Mortuary is one of the greatest importance. During the cooler months there are naturally fewer, but during the hotter seasons of the year-at a time when the Mortuary is

This table shows clearly that July and August, the hottest season, are the months during which the largest number of decomposed occur. In fact during the short interval of 10 days from the 1st to the 10th of August, no fewer than 50 decomposed bodies were received at the Mortuary.

The work at the Mortuary, under these circumstances, is carried on with considerable difficulty and risk. There is no method there at present of immedia- tely dealing with such decomposed organic matter. Certainly the most efficient way of getting rid of decomposed bodies would be cremation, immediately on their arrival at the Mortuary.

ÕPPORTUNITIES AFFORDED FOR CARRYING OUT THIS RESEARCH.

The systematic examination of rats found alive or dead was begun when I as- sumed charge of the Government Public Mortuary on the 20th March, 1902. was evident from the very commencement that if this work was to be carried out on an extensive scale and in a systematic manner with uniformity of results, extra accommodation at the Mortuary would have to be provided. Accordingly with the consent of the Principal Civil Medical Officer (the Public Mortuary at that time being under the supervision of the Medical Department), I had the existing old Coroner's Court adjoining the Mortuary so reconstructed that the examination of rats could be undertaken satisfactory for the time being. The Coroner's Court consisted of two fair size! rooms, and with slight alterations these were fitted up so that one room was devoted to the actual post-mortem work, the second room being used as a microscopic or research room. At the same time the arrangements made last year could only be of a temporary character, no system being possibly obtainable whereby the examinations could be satisfactorily carried out from a modern sanitary point of view.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH JUNE, 1903.

During the months of March, April and of May these examinations were systematically carried out by myself. In May the services of 4 Japanese Doctors were obtained, and their researches, supervised by myself, were carried on until the 13th October, "when they returned to Japan. From the latter date onwards, the work has been done by myself assisted by Chinese Qualified Doctors and Students of the College of Medicine in Hongkong. These examinations were gone on with even during the hottest weather, the daily number of rats examined- counting six days to a week-averaged nearly 400. This reaches approximately between 2,000 or 3,000 rats examined per week.

THE METHODS EMPLOYED.

Exact details as to the place where each rat was found was furnished by the Sanitary Department. The post-mortem on each rat was under antiseptic precau- tions, and smears both of the heart blood and spleen pulp were made on micros- copic glass slides. These were dried, fixed and stained by the usual tinctorial methods and examined microscopically. In almost all cases plague infection in rats is one most pronounced, the stained smears usually containing millions of typically ovalbipolar plague bacilli. If any doubt existed as to the nature of the organisms present GRAM'S method of decolorisation was employed as a counter test. Seeing that so enormus a number of rats were examined by such a limited staff, these methods were the only possible. Subsequent to the post-mortem examina- tions, all the rats are cremated in an apparatus erected in the immediate neigh- bourhood.

THE INTERPRETATION OF THE RESULTS.

The

The post-mortem and bacteriological examination of large numbers of living and dead rats is a research which must be carried out with considerable care. diagnosis of the presence of plague bacilli in any tissue or organ by means of the microscope alone is frequently one of extreme difficulty, and this is all the more so because in the tissues of man and animals micro-organisms occur which by the microscope alone cannot under any conditions be distinguished from the plague bacillus. The research is even complicated to a much greater degree in regard to the diagnosis of the presence of plague bacilli in rats. Rats suffer from a large number of septicemic diseases. These diseases frequently break out amongst them in epidemic form with a heavy mortality. Among the many micro-organisms causing these epidemic diseases may be mentioned B. DANYSZ and B. v. SCHILLING, etc. Other micro-organisms such as B. of fowl cholera, B. swine plague, etc., are also pathogenic for rats. Morphologically and tinctorially all the above mentioned micro-organisms resemble the B. Pestis. Therefore it is evident that even though plague is prevalent among rats in any particular city, one has to be on guard for the possible occurrence of other epidemic diseases which might account for an increased death-rate at any time among them.

The rat is one of the most susceptible animals to plague infection, the gray as well as the white rat probably sharing this almost equally.

The paths of infection in the rat are numerous.

The skin, the mere rubbing of plague material on the shaved abdomen of a rat is sufficient.

The mouth, the throat, and the nose are frequently sources of infection. In these cases one frequently has evidence of infection of the nearest lympathic gland, e.g., of the neck. The glands are sowllen, oedematous and hæmorrhagic, and are full of plague bacilli. This condition may be met with in rats found alive, but pre- senting symptoms of disease.

In other cases it is not difficult to trace the infection by way of the alimentary canal.

The stomach and small intestine show marked swelling, edema and hæmorrhagic infiltration. The intestinal follicles and mesenteric glands are the seat of great œdema and blood extravasation. The glands may even reach the size of a pea, and they contain enormous masses of plague bacilli.

Further infection may take place by way of the lungs setting up what is called an Aspiration Pneumonia. This may either be patchy or affect whole lobe of a lung, and the consolidated patches always show great hæmorrhagic infiltration. The parts are always choked with plague bacilli.

832

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH JUNE, 1903.

The method of infection in these cases is certainly direct, from contact with other rats dead from plague or suffering from plague, or plague infected material. It is a well known fact that the dead body of a rat is usually devoured as food by other rats.

The forms of plague as met with in rats may be divided into acute and chronic.

In the acute form, death occurs in a few days. There is loss of appetite, the hair becomes ruffled, and they usually sit in a corner of the cage curled up, pre- senting a very listless appearance. The post-mortem examination shows a marked inflammatory re-action in the spleen, lungs and liver. The spleen and liver are much enlarged, dark in colour, and contain enormous masses of bacilli. The lungs are hyperæmic, the heart is full of fluid and tarry looking blood, which also has numerous bacilli. Frequently the peripheral lympathic glands are enlarged, and these may present all the appearances commonly met with in a Bubo in human subject.

In the chronic form, death may not occur for some considerable time, even for months. The post-mortem examination presents indurative swellings in the lungs, liver and spleen, some of which are usually in a condition of so called caseation. Plague bacilli are found in those areas which are capable of transmitting the disease.

In addition to rats, a number of other dead animals, as mice, dogs, cats and fowls, have been examined for the presence of B. pestis.

The number of fowls examined is small and the result was always negative. Four dogs were examined with a similar result. In the case of mice, a number have been examined, and in many distinct evidence of plague infection was found. So far as cats are concerned, the results obtained are highly interesting. Towards the end of the year one of the Godown Companies in Kowloon, who keep large num- bers of cats for destruction of rats, observed a higher death-rate than usual amongst their cats.

Several of these were forwarded to me for examination, and in most cases the post-mortem examination showed unmistakable evidences of marked plague infection. Subsequently the cat mortality in these godowns greatly in- creased, and all the cats were forwarded to me. In almost all instances the cats died of plague. Further, several cats were forwarded to me immediately they showed signs of illness. They were kept under observation in isolation. Their chief symptoms was loss of appetite, ruffling of the hair, marked wasting, and in some cases paralytic phenomena showed themselves in the hinder extremities. In one instance the cat lived for over a week. In other two they died about 48 hours after I had them under observation. The post-mortem changes were mainly those of acute congestion with the presence of plague bacilli in the heart, blood and spleen. In one instance a small bubo was found in one groin, but did not present the extensive hæmorrhagic extravasation present in human beings.

The occurrence of plague infection in cats is one of the greatest importance from a domestic point of view. Undoubtedly the cats at present under considera- tion contracted plague from the plague infected rats in the godown. That the rats there were infected had conclusively been proved previous to the infection in the cats. The method of infection here had probably been in the majority of cases a direct one, per os, although of course other possible channels of infection cannot be completely disregarded.

THE GOVENMENT VACCINE INSTITUTE.

During the greater part of the year, Dr. CLARK, the Acting Colonial Veterinary Surgeon, had charge of this Institution.

In the month of October the duties of Director of the Vaccine Institute were taken over by the Government Bacteriologist.

The preparation of Small-pox Vaccine was at once commenced.

The total number of calves paid for the manufacture of vaccine was 23, an expenditure of $150.

The total number of tubes of vaccine prepared during the year was 3,652, of which the Government Bacteriologist personally prepared 2,475.

The value of this lymph was $1,460.80.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH JUNE, 1903.

During the year tubes of vaccine have been supplied to the local Hospitals and the Gaol, as well as to the Naval and Military Authorities, to the private practi- tioners in the Colony, and to Canton and some of the other neighbouring ports.

Altogether 4,616 tubes of vaccine were issued, the value of which was $2,499, of which $315.50 was paid into the Bank.

Considerable care has been taken to keep up the efficiency of the Vaccine, and so far it has given the utmost satisfaction to all who have used it.

BACTERIOLOGICAL LABORATORY.

After the arrival of the Bacteriological apparatus from England, a series of interesesting post-mortems and bacteriological examinations were made upon cattle at the Dairy Farm, Pokfulam, and the Kennedy Town Slaughter-house. The animals in question suffered from what appeared to be chronic diarrhoea. The stools were liquid and slimy and contained appreciable quantities of blood-stained mucus. There was loss of appetite, gradual emaciation, and the symptoms in the majority of cases gradually became aggravated, and was followed by death from exhaustion.

The post-mortems made upon such carcases were extremely interesting, as many of the lesions found might from a superficial glance raise the suspicion that the animals had succumbed to infection with Plague. There was great congestion of the skin, subcutaneous tissues and muscles. Ecchymosis in great abundance were usually present in the serous membranes. The stomachs and intestines were inflamed and presented ulceration, which in some cases was very extensive and extended over considerable areas of the mucous membrane. The mesenteric, re- troperitoneal, scapular and groin glands were always enlarged, and the cut surfaces presented considerable congestion with frequent blood extravasation.

Cultures were made on ordinary nutrient media from the intestines, glands, spleen, heart, blood, &c., and at the same time guinea pigs, pigeons, &c., were inoculated direct from the tissues of the dead carcase. There could be no chance of much contamination having taken place with other bacteria as the carcases used for those purposes were perfectly fresh, the almost comatose animal being killed immediately before the examination was made.

In addition to these, a large number of smears on microscopic glass slides were made from as many hæmorrhagic glands as possible, and the various internal

organs.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH JUNE, 1903.

The microscopic preparations on being stained in various ways showed the presence of small rods resembling diplococci. This diplococcoid appearance was called forth by the more intense staining reaction at the poles of the rod-an appearance similar to that presented by B. pestis, and a large number of other rod- shaped micro-organisms. They did not retain the stain when treated by GRAM'S method.

The organism grew upon all media as gelatine, bouillon, agar-agar, potato, milk, &c. On all of these media the growth characteristics were similar to those of B. coli.

The organism was non-motile.

All the animals inoculated died after 24 to 48 hours with symptoms of post- mortem appearances of Septicemia with the occurrence of many hæmorrhages throughout the various internal organs. One pigeon was inoculated intra-mus- cular, and after death at the point of inoculation one found a white, thick, and hard swelling with marked necrosis of the surrounding muscle fibres.

}

Owing to a variety of reasons, the research was not prosecuted further, but it is the intention to follow up the disease more closely on the next favourable opportunity.

From the symptoms and pathological appearances, coupled with the bac- teriological investigations, one is drawn to conclude that these animals suffering from a form of Hæmorrhagic Septicemia-a group of diseases affecting large numbers of different animals.

In view of the fact that such a disease or group of diseases prevails amongst cattle, it would be important to determine how widespread this disease is in the Colony, and in all cases to clearly distinguish the disease from what is called Rinderpest-a disease which so far has baffled all the attempts of bacteriologists to reveal its exciting agent.

Further, in view of the fact that this form of Septicemia breaks out, apparently regularly each year, it would be useful to determine whether the animals in such herds could be protected by some method of active Immunisation.

During the year, an attempt was made to prepare HAFFKINE'S vaccine and plague curative serum. Operations were commenced, but had to be given up owing to want accommodation in the Infectious Diseases Hospital, its distance from the other branches of the Department, and further to want of suitable animal accom- modation in the immediate neighbourhood. It is felt that until some adequate accommodation in the form of a Bacteriological Laboratory, combined with the centralisation of the work requiring to be done, the preparation of complicated curative vaccines and sera cannot be undertaken.

  The following Report on the Health and Sanitary Condition of the Colony of Hongkong, for the year 1902, is published.

By Command,

F. H. MAY,

Colonial Secretary.

REPORT ON THE HEALTH AND SANITARY CONDITION OF THE COLONY OF HONGKONG, FOR THE YEAR 1902.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 21st March, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to submit, for the information of His Excellency the Governor and for transmission to the Right Honourable the Secretary of State, the Medical Report on the health and sanitary condition of the Colony of Hong- kong for the year 1902, together with the returns, &c., appended thereto.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

You obedient Servant,

The Honourable

THE COLONIAL SECRETARY.

J. M. ATKINSON, Principal Civil Medical Officer.

POPULATION.

The estimated population of the Colony for 1902 was 311,824. There ́were 1,200 births and 6,783 deaths, of the latter 582 were from plague.

The birth-rate was 3.8 per 1,000 as compared with 3.6 per 1,000 in 1901.

The death-rate was 21.7 per 1,000 as compared with 23.5 per 1,000 in 1901.

The following figures will show the comparison of the death-rate in the Chinese and non-Chinese during the past two years:-

PREVALENCE OF SICKNESS IN DIFFERENT SEASONS OF THE YEAR, AND GENERAL CHARACTER AS TO THE MILDNESS OR SEVERITY OF

THE DISEASES PREVAILING.

Small-poa.--This disease was much less prevalent than in 1901, 57 cases only being notified during the year as against 91 in 1901. As usual most of these cases occurred in the early part of the year.

Cholera. For the first time since 1888 Cholera was again epidemic in Colony. During the year, 460 cases were notified, over 300 of these occurred in the second quarter of the year.

This disease appears to have been prevalent all over the East, the Philippine Islands especially having suffered. In all likelihood it was introduced to Hong- kong from Canton.

Plague. This disease was much less prevalent than during the previous four years, 572 cases only being notified as compared with 1,651 in 1901.

The first cases occurred at Jardine's Bazaar at the East end of the town. A whole block of houses there was vacated and thoroughly disinfected, the rat- runs being filled up. &c.

This principle of vacating infected blocks, cleansing them and rendering them rat free was carried out during the year, in this way houses were closed as follows:-

The

Rats.-Much more active measures were taken to exterminate rats. number of rat-catchers was considerably increased early in the year and as a result 117,839 rats were destroyed during the year.

The number of rats caught during the past three years is as follows:---

1900, 1901, 1902,

46,593 77,763 .117,839

Since March a systematic bacteriological examination has been made of all rats caught. The services of three Japanese doctors, versed in this work, were obtained from the Japanese Government for six months and since then work has been carried on by Chinese bacteriological assistants, specially trained by the Government Bacteriologist, who arrived in the Colony at the end of February.

879-

880

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 19TH JUNE, 1903.

The result of the examination is interesting, at first in March only .03 per cent. of the rats caught were infected with plague.

At the end of May the percentage of plague infected rats was 5.9, this rose until the third week in July when it reached 7.8 per cent., since then it gradually fell until November when it was 1.7 per cent.

Notwithstanding the fact that from September to the end of the year plague in man had practically ceased, plague infected rats were still found, the percentage varying from 1.7 per cent. to 1.1 per cent. at the end of the year and then in- fected rats came from practically every health district in the Colony.

Haffkine's prophylactic. The whole of the plague staff was inoculated with anti-plague serums and not a single case occurred amongst them. It was im- possible however to induce Chinese generally to be inoculated.

Enteric fever. There were 55 cases as compared with 75 in 1901. These were equally distributed throughout the year. the numbers for the respective quarters being 16, 12, 12 and 15. Five of these were imported cases.

Malarial fever.-There was a still further reduction in the number of deaths returned as amongst the Chinese from malarial fevers, the figures for the last three years being 393 in 1902, 541 in 1901, and 887 in 1900.

Anti-malarial measures, viz., removal of undergrowth, training of nullahs and draining of stagnant pools, were continued during the year.

Beri-beri.-There were more deaths reported from this disease than in previous years, the numbers being 452 as against 377 in 1901 and 361 in 1900.

Dengue. An extensive outbreak of this disease took place.

Some fifty cases occurred in the autumn of the previous year, the disease evidently having been introduced from Singaporc.

Every section of the community were affected, over 400 cases having been admitted to the Government Civil Hospital alone. The earliest cases occurred towards the end of June, it was prevalent in July, more prevalent in August and commenced to decline in September with the onset of the cool weather and in October it soon died out. Considerable inconvenience was caused commercially as many firms employing large numbers of men had great difficulty at the height of the epidemic in obtaining workmen.

It is to be hoped that this disease is not going to become endemic.

the year 1902:-

GENERAL SANITARY CONDITION OF THE COLONY.

The sanitary condition of the Colony has been improved of late years. more especially by the provision of open spaces in the rear of buildings thus doing away with back to back houses and introducing more light and ventilation to the Chinese dwellings. Much however remains to be done.

Professon SIMPSON and Mr. OSBERT CHADWICK, C.M.G., arrived in the early part of the year.

Their reports conclusively show that overcrowding and many insanitary dwellings and areas exist.

Mr. CHADWICK states "I am further of opinion that nothing short of the general resumption of insanitary tenements, and their entire re-construction, will bring about any thorough improvement in the sanitary condition of Hongkong."

The Legislature has introduced and passed a new Public Health and Build- ings Bill which has consoldidated and improved the various existing Public Health and Buildings Ordinances and it is hoped and expected that this Bill will do much to further the better sanitation of this Colony.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to repeal The New Territories Rent Recovery Ordinance, 1902, and to make other provisions in lieu thereof.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as The New Territories Short title. Rent Recovery Ordinance, 1903.

2. The New Territories Rent Recovery Ordinance, 1902, Repeal of is hereby repealed.

For the purposes of this Ordinance a Magistrate in Power of the New Territories shall have all the powers conferred Magistrate. upon a Magistrate for the recovery of civil debts by the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890; and the Forms in Part II of Forms. the Second Schedule to the Magistrates Ordinance, 1890, with such variations as circumstances may require, may used for the purposes of this Ordinance and shall be good and sufficient in law.

any, already commenced.

909

Objects and Reasons.

The object of this Ordinance is to provide for the bear- ing and determining of claims to rent in the New Territories. By Ordinance 14 of 1902, it was provided that such claims should be heard and determined by the Land Court es- tablished under Ordinance 18 of 1900. That Court how- ever was intended when it was constituted to be a Court for settling claims to land in the New Territories and for establishing titles to laud therein and for no other purpose..

It was not intended, and it is not desired, that the Land, Court shall continue to exist after it has done its work of settling titles to land. The Land Court, in short, is a Lands Titles Court and that alone; and will be dissolved as soon as its work of settling titles is done.

This Ordinance therefore repeals Ordinance 14 of 1902, which declares that all claims to rent in respect of land in the New Territories shall be heard and determined by the Land Court, and provides in lieu thereof that rent in the New Territories is to be recovered before the Supreme Court when the rent claimed exceeds $200 and before a Magistrate when the sum claimed does not exvced that

amount.

After consideration and from the experience of the past the Governinent have come to the conclusion that in the case of claims over $200 the parties should be admitted to the privilege of a hearing in the Supreme Court in its Original or Summary Jurdisdiction according to the amount involved, where the advantage of legal assistance can readily be obtained.

In proceedings before a Magistrate in the New Terri- tories the parties will also be at liberty if they please to retain legal assistance, but as the amount involved in any such case will be necessarily small there will not be the same need for legal assistance.

REPORT ON THE HONGKONG VOLUNTEER CORPS,

From the General Officer Commanding in China and Hongkong to His Excellency the Governor of Hongkong,

q'c.

F. H. MAY, Coloniaí Secretary.

HEAD QUARTERS OFFICE, HONGKONG, 7th May, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to forward, for Your Excellency's information, the Report of the Commandant of the Hongkong Volunteer Corps on the training per- formed and the general condition of the Corps during the past year.

It will be seen that there has been a falling off in numbers, but this was to be expected owing to the change in the composition of the Corps-a change which was naturally not acceptable to all former members.

But I am thoroughly satisfied that the change was a wise one, Garrison Ar- tillery and Engineers being the two units in the Garrison which require strengthen- ing, and in which the assistance of Volunteers, well trained, is of the highest value. It speaks well for the common sense and loyalty of the Corps generally that this change was so largely accepted, once it was made clear that it was in this respect that their services were most required.

With regard to Major PRITCHARD's remarks in paragraph 37 as to the present difficulties in training the men so far distant from their Head Quarters, I would inform Your Excellency that this had not escaped my observation, and that I am considering the feasibility of establishing a Drill Practice Battery at Scandal Point where both the Artillery and the Volunteers can receive practical instruction.

I have the honour to be,

£

Sir.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

2. It will be seen from Enclosure No. 8 with the corresponding document for the training season 1901-1902, that the total strength of the Corps is now 274 of all ranks as against 318 of all ranks on the former date. I attribute the falling off in numbers to the recent change in the Corps from Field, Machine Gun and In- fantry Companies to Garrison Artillery.

3. During the past season 1 member has died, 61 have resigned-33 in Colony and 28 on leaving the Colony-17 have been struck off as absent without leave.

EQUIPMENT.

6. There has been no alteration in the Equipment of the Corps since last

season.

The C. R. A. has kindly placed at the temporary disposal of the Corps for drill purposes two 15-Pr. B. L. Guns. If sufficient accommodation could be provid- ed, I should be glad of two more of these guns in order to train the Officers, Non- commissioned officers and men in Battery fire discipline; but until the new Head- quarters are provided this cannot be done.

APPOINTMENTS, ETC., OF OFFICERS.

7. The changes, etc., among the Officers of the Corps during the season have been as under :-

The Contingent was inspected by General DoRWARD and General FUKUSHIMA on board the S. S. Empress of India; by General PARSONS and Colonel Roy in Canada; by General O'GRADY HALY on board S. S. Tunisian; and at Alexendra Palace by H.R.H. the Duke of CONNAUGHT and Lord ROBERTS, Commander-in Chief; also by Her Majesty the Queen and H.R.H. the Prince of WALES.

They formed a Guard of Honour to H.R.H. Princess CHRISTIAN, also at White- hall on the Coronation Day, and were inspected by and received Coronation Medals from His Majesty the King. They also formed part of a Guard of Honour on the arrival in London of General Lord KITCHENER.

All ranks enjoyed the trip immensely and the arrangements were well carried out for them by the Canadian Pacific Railway Company. The Contingent arrived back in the Colony on September 30th, and were inspected by His Excellency the Governor. They had all much improved in drill and smartness, and great credit is due for this to Major CHAPMAN and Company Sergeant-Major BARRETT, R.G.A., who accompanied them.

DISCIPLINE, TRAINING, ETC.

26. The discipline of the Corps has been exceedingly good throughout the

season.

The usual squad, carbine, rifle and company drills have been performed and well attended.

See Enclosure No.

Musketry practice has been carried out during the season. 9, by the musketry regulations for 1903 Artillery are not classified.

The Engineer Company musketry return is attached.

Drill with 15-Pr. B.L. Guns at Head Quarters, and with the guns at Lyemun, Stonecutters' Island, Belchers and Kowloon East have been carried out during the season; also 1 Aiming Practice from 6" and 10" B.L. Guns at Lyemun and Stonecutters' Island. It is hoped that during the coming year heavy gun practice may be carried out from one of the Forts in the District.

27. Under the head of drills the figures are as follows:- Those who have become efficient with more than 30 drills:-

Of the 68 Non-efficients, 17 have been called upon to make good the loss to the Corps Funds, i.e., $25 each, 4 have been excused owing to the nature of their employ- ment, 2 will be struck off the strength as absent out of Colony without leave, 32 are absent (with leave, from the Colony), and 13 recruits have been unable to com- plete the necessary number of drills.

CAMP OF INSTRUCTION.

28. From the 10th to 20th October, 1902, a Camp of Instruction was held under canvas at Stonecutters' Island.

916

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

The Camp was fairly well attended and much practical work was performed, including gun drill with 10" B.L., 6" B.L. and 3-Pr. Q.F. Guns at Stonecutters', West and East, also Company, carbine and rifle drills. Numerous lectures were given by the Staff, and the C.R.A. kindly gave a very instructive lecture on Artillery in Coast Defence.

The Engineer Company, in addition to musketry and infantry drills, did daily drills with the engines and search lights under the supervision of the Royal Engi- neer Instructors. Major BAKER BROWN, R. E., kindly gave an instructive lecture on Electric Light in Coast Defence, which was well attended and much appreciated by the Artillery units as well as the Engineer Company.

The same Officer also carried out an examination of the Engineer Company in their technical work.

29. The C.R.A. inspected the Artillery Units at Stonecutters', West, on October 18th. The guns of the Fort were completely manned and there were spare detach- ments at the 6" B.L. Guns. Each officer and detachment was seen separately by the C.R.A. and given orders by him personally so that the inspection was very thoroughly carried out. The C.R.A. expressed himself very pleased with the drill of all ranks and stated that he considered that after such a short period of drill the progress made had been exceptionally good and that the officers especially seemed to have been well-trained and knew their work very well.

30. Colonel L. F. BROWN, C.R.E., Acting General Officer Commanding, in- spected the Corps and Camp on Sunday, 19th October, and there were present 155 of all ranks.

MISCELLANEOUS.

31. The Annual Inspection of the Corps by His Excellency the General Officer Commanding was held on the 28th March, and it will be seen from the Parade State (Enclosure No. 7) that considering the strength of the Corps there was a good number on parade.

The absentees from the Inspection are as under:-

51 absent with leave (mostly out of the Colony).

5 on Medical Certificate.

3 absent from the Colony without leave.

14 absent without leave (in the Colony).

32. His Excellency the Governor's Shield was shot for on the 5th April, 1902, by teams of 8 from each unit, and won by the late "B" Machine Gun Company, now Left half No. 1 Company Hongkong Volunteer Artillery.

33. The shield presented by His Excellency Sir W. J. GASCOIGNE for Maxim Gun Practice was not competed for owing to the change in organisation. The con- ditions have now been altered and approved by His Excellency and the competition will in future be for Gun drill, the gun or guns to be selected by the Commandant. This year it is proposed to carry ont the competition with 15-Pr. B.L. Guns, that being the only gun at which the men can drill frequently without proceeding to the Forts.

34. The Corps took part in the King's Birthday Parade at the Happy Valley on November 10th.

35. New Regulations for the Corps were published in the Government Gazette of 14th November, showing the new constitution, and some alterations in the uni- form of the Corps.

36. The change in the constitution of the Corps was brought about owing to an urgent letter from the Officer Commanding Royal Artillery, who pointed out the absolute necessity of more Garrison Artillery in the command, and when it was found that no more Garrison Artillery could be furnished he strongly urged that the Volunteer Corps should be altered accordingly. The matter was put before the members of the Corps, when the majority at once came forward and agreed to the change, and I wish to take this opportunity of saying that I consider great credit is due to all rank for thus taking the matter up, as it was done against the personal wishes of a large number and entirely because it had been put forward that the Corps would be of greater service in the defence of the Colony.

The change was sanctioned on July 25th and new regulations were published on November 12th.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

37. The difficulties in the way of training Volunteers here as Garrison Artillery are very great, and considering these and the short time that has elapsed since the change, I consider the progress made has been very good, but unless some arrange- ments can be made for drill guns near the Headquarters the numbers can never be kept up to the approved strength nor the efficiency be as good as could be wished. At present any drill with heavy guns has to be done at one of the Forts in the District and for one hour's drill the men have to give up 2 to 3 hours to allow for proceeding to and fro. This practically limits these drills to Saturday afternoon, and accounts for many of the men resigning as they cannot possibly give up the time. I understand there is a proposal that drill guns should be mounted at Scandal Point for the use of the R.G.A. and the Volunteers, and when these are mounted I hope to get more members and a much higher state of efficiency in the Corps; in fact without these guns I consider that it will be practically impossible to keep the present number together.

38. The Engineer Company has increased in strength from 25 to 29. They have done good work during the year and the O.C.S.M.R.E. reports very favour- ably on their efficiency.

in

a

I

Early in the year a proposal was sent in that a shed should be put up central position at Kowloon, and that an engine, &c., and an electric search light in- stallation should be placed there for special instruction of the Volunteers to obviate the necessity of all the instruction being given at Belchers and Stonecutters. understand that this is now approved and sanctioned, and I hope the work will be put in hand as soon as possible. This should much improve the efficiency of all members of the Engineer Company, and the shorter time to be devoted to technical drills should, I hope, attract more recruits to this very useful portion of the Corps.

39. Another difficulty the Corps have had to contend with was the introduc- tion of a new Provisional Infantry Drill which arrived early in August. The majority of the men, however, have now been instructed in this.

40. A Volunteer Rifle Meeting was held at the Kowloon Ranges on February 28th and March 14th of this year, a good percentage of the Corps attended and some good shooting was done.

41. An Ambulance Class has been conducted this year by Surgeon Captain F. O. STEDMAN, M.D. Nine members of the Corps presented themselves for examina- tion, which was held by Captain PARKER, R.A.M.C. The result has not yet been received.

SERVICES.

42. The Staff and the instructors have carried out their duties in a very satis- factory manner.

I would also wish to record my thanks to Major BAKER BROWN, O.C.S.M.R.E., to whom the efficiency of the Hongkong Volunteer Engineers is entirely due and who has given much time and trouble in assisting them.

I have the honour to be,

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

Mr. SUN UN-PAN was promoted from the Harbour Department to the post of Second Assistant Clerk.

Mr. UN SHIN TSEUNG was promoted to the post of First Assistant Clerk on the 6th February, but was invalided from the Service on August 17th, Mr. Sux UN-PAN being promoted to his post.

Mr. CHAN IU SHING was appointed Second Assistant Clerk on promotion from the Sanitary Department on October 1st.

Mr. LEUNG SHIU CHIU was engaged temporarily from the 18th of August to the 30th of September.

POLICE.

The admissions to the Hospital were nearly the same as last year, the number being 938, as against 937 in 1901. The strength of the Force was 881, as against 886 in 1901.

There were 52 less Europeans, 42 less Indians, and 103 more Chinese admitted.

There was a marked diminution in the number of malarial fever admissions, the figures being 176, as against 407 in 1901, a result due, in a great measure, to the more active anti-malarial measures carried on and to the more regular use of quinine as a prophylactic.

Even more marked is the diminution of malarial fever cases in the New Terri- tory, as may be seen from the following comparative table which includes returns from the nine Police Stations to the north of the Kowloon hills:--

TROOPS.

There was a considerable increase in the number of admissions to Hospital notwithstanding that the number of Troops was somewhat less.

From Table IV it will be seen that the mortality was higher amongst the Eu- ropeans and much lower amongst the Indians than in the previous year.

The average daily rate of sickness was less in both European and Indian Troops.

Amongst the deaths in 1902 were ten from malarial fever, three from plague, two from dysentery and one from liver abscess.

GAOL STAFF.

Eighty-six members of the Gaol Staff were admitted to the Hospital during the year out of a total staff of 91. Three were invalided-two for rheumatism, and

one for phthisis.

There were no deaths.

SANITARY DEPARTMENT.

There was a large increase in the number of admissions during the year, the figures being sixty-four, as against thirty in 1901. This is accounted for by the increased number of men employed in this Department, more particularly in rat extermination. There were four deaths-one foreman and a disinfecting coolie having died from cholera and two others from natural causes. No members of the staff were invalided.

The rate of mortality for the year was 4.5 per cent., as against 5.18 in 1901. The average daily number of sick was 111.38 as against 111.72.

Women and Children.-The number admitted was 357 as against 281 in 1901 and 325 in 1900.

This increase in the number of Women and Children shows the need of further accomodation. This will be supplied by the Vietoria Hospital which is now rapidly approaching completion and will I trust be occupied this year.

NATIONALITY.

Europeans.-956 were admitted during the year as against 1,026 in 1901.

Indians.-834 were admitted as compared with 817 in 1901.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

Asiatics (Chinese and Japanese).-1,315 were admitted during the year, as against 1,098 in 1901, an increase of 217. The majority of these must have been Paying Patients as there were fewer Police Cases and Free Patients treated than in the previous year. It is interesting to note that Asiatics are availing themselves more of the benefits offered by this Institution.

Dengue.-No less than 422 patients were admitted suffering from this disease.

The first case occurred on the 28th June, 90 cases were admitted in July, 241 in August, 56 in September and 33 in October. The outbreak subsided with the onset of the cold weather, only two cases being admitted in November.

Nearly all the members of the Nursing and Medical Staff contracted the disease which is very infectious. It cannot, however, be said to be contagious, as many of the attendants did not contract it until they had been attending cases for fully two months.

Enteric Fever.-There were 34 cases under treatment with 8 deaths. 15 of them were imported cases and 3 occurred amongst members of the Police Force, viz., Two Europeans and one Indian.

The disease was much more fatal amongst the Chinese, as out of 8 admitted 6 died, whereas with the Europeans out of 21 cases, 2 only proved fatal. The 5 Indians attacked all recovered.

Cholera. There were 14 cases of cholera admitted with 10 deaths, these occurred in connection with the serious outbreak of this disease in the early part of the

year.

Dysentery. There were 74 cases, with 6 deaths, a diminution both in the number of cases and in the number of deaths as compared with the previous year.

Diphtheria. There were 6 cases under treatment with one death.

Beri-beri.-There was an increase in the number of cases as compared with the previous year, the figures being 62 as against 41. Five of the cases were fatal.

Malarial Fever.-There was a decided decrease in the number of patients admitted from this class of disease, the figures being 349 as compared with 787 in 1901.

This marked diminution is to a great extent accounted for by the active anti- malarial measures which have been carried out during the past few years.

Surgical Operations.-There were 176 operations performed during the year, as against 188 in 1901. Amongst the most important were the following:-

· Liver Abscess.-Five cases were operated on, with two deaths. Post mortem examination proved that in both these cases there were multiple abscesses.

Lithotomy. Two cases were successfully operated on, in one the lateral opera- tion was performed and in the other the median. The calculus in the former weighed 139 grammes, in the latter 4.5 grammes.

Tracheotomy.-There were two cases operated on for diphtheria with one death. This case was that of a Chinese female child picked up in the street, who was practically moribund when admitted.

Excision of Spleen.-This was a case of rupture of the spleen which did not reach the hospital until some hours after the injury. The abdomen was found full of blood, the ruptured spleen was rapidly removed, saline fluid was transfused, but the patient had lost too much blood before admission, and died after the operation.

Femoral Aneurism.--The external iliac was ligatured but as pulsation recurred in the aneurismal sac three days after the operation, the artery was again tied higher up and this time successfully. The patient, a Sanitary Inspector, has since resumed his work.

Anaesthetics.-Chloroform was administered 111 times and ether once.

Fractures and Dislocations.-The following were treated during the year:- Compound Fractures.

LUNATIC ASYLUMS.

Tables IX and X give the admissions and deaths during the year and the diseases from which the patients were suffering.

There were 30 more admissions than in the previous year, and at times it was with difficulty that the hospital could accomodate all who were brought in.

MATERNITY HOSPITAL.

Table XI gives the admissions and deaths during each month of the year. There were 67 admissions as against 54 in 1901.

There were no fatal cases.

Nineteen were wives of Government Servants, 35 Private Paying and 13 Free. Twenty-eight were Asiatics.

A scheme was instituted in 1902 for training Chinese women to act as mid- wives. There are already two Chinese women undergoing this training.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

It is with much regret that I have to record the death in the Government Civil Hospital, on the 24th November last, of Dr. CHUNG KING Ü.

He has been the Resident Medical Officer at the Tung Wah Hospital since 1895 and it is to a great extent due to his tact and skill that so many improvements have been effected there. He died from consumption after several months' illness, and was succeeded by Dr. JEU HAWK.

PUBLIC MORTUARY AND VACCINE INSTITUTE.

The Government Bacteriologist, Dr. HUNTER, shortly after his arrival at the end of February last, took over the work at the Public Mortuary and the Vaccine Institute.

KENNEDY TOWN INFECTIOUS HOSPITAL.

During the year the hospital premises have been enclosed by a substantial iron railing.

Two hundred and six patients were treated, 17 being cases of small-pox, 52 cholera, and 94 were admitted suffering from plague.

The large increase in the number of cholera cases was due to the outbreak of the disease which occurred last spring and summer.

There was a decided diminution in the number of cases of small-pox and plague as compared with the previous year.

The European Nursing Staff was completed by the arrival in May last of Wardmaster MCKAY.

Dr. JEU HAWK was appointed resident medical officer during the time that cholera and plague were prevalent.

The Hospital Hulk "Hygeia" was moored off Kennedy Town Hospital from the 28th February to the 1st July and several cases of small-pox were treated there.

VACCINATIONS.

The following Vaccinations were performed during the year:-

ANTI-MALARIAL MEASURES.

These have been vigorously continued during the year in the Western District. Several of the Nullahs here should be trained, I refer more especially to the one above Ripon Terrace to the West of the Nethersole Hospital. Several of the others require constant attention, viz., the one to the West of Richmond Terrace, &c.

The neighbourhood of Macdonnell Road has been dealt with. Much un- dergrowth has been removed, pools of stagnant water have been drained and the nullahs have also been partially trained.

In the winter months a general fumigation of the servants' quarters in the houses of this district was carried out by the Sanitary Board Staff with the object of killing off the anopheles with which they were found to be infected.

The military authorities have also been carrying on similar measures extensively on their land below Kennedy Road.

APPENDIX.

CASE OF ABSCESS IN LEFT LOBE OF LIVER.-OPERATION, DRAINAGE, RECOVERY. W.W., Clerk, English, age 30, residing in Hongkong, was admitted on February 3rd, 1902. He stated that he been feeling unwell for 10 or 12 days, bowels constipated, vomiting more or less continuous, no history of dysentery. His temperature was 102° F., his tongue very much furred, breath offensive, hepatic dulness slightly increased, the upper part of the abdomen was semewhat distended. Urine S. G. 1,027, reaction alkaline, free from albumen and sugar. Patient was placed on low diet with milk O. ii daily, Carlsbad Salts şi in water each morning, and Calomel gr. i in powder given at bed time.

        i in powder given at bed time. Bowels were freely opened the following day, blood examined for malaria, but no parasites were found. On February 8th his temperature was normal and there had been no vomiting for several days. Patient improved steadily and on the 14th was able to take a walk in the garden. Two days afterwards his temperature rose steadily to 103° F. and the abdominal pain returned. On the 18th he complained of distinct pain in epigastrium, worse on pressure, the left lobe of the liver was slightly enlarged, there was slight cough, and pain in epigastrium on coughing. Spleen was enlarged, and a pleuritic rub was detected at the left base in the axillary line. The following day he vomited once.

On the 21st February, chloroform was administered, Potain's aspirator used, and the left lobe of the liver explored. No pus was found. The swelling at the upper part of the abdomen appeared less when patient was under chloroform.

He had an attack of bilious vomiting on the 23rd instant and three days later chloroform was again administered and an abscess found in left lobe of the liver. It was freely opened, a silver tube inserted, but very little pus came away.

                                       The tube was removed on the 28th instant as it was supposed to be blocked, dis- charge slight. On March 1st the opening leading to the abscess cavity was well dilated with a long pair of Sinus forceps, about seven ounces of pus came away and a long silver tube was re-inserted. Temperature kept normal, the abscess cavity gradually closed. Tube was removed on the 15th and the cavity packed with gauze. Patient was discharged from Hospital quite recovered on April 11th.

CASE OF HEPATIC ABSCESS BURSTING INTO THE LUNG AND BOWEL.-RECOVERY.

R.W.H., American sailor, age 31 years, was admitted on July 20th, 1902, with a history of dysentery since the previous December. Temp. 102° on admis- sion, liver dulness very much increased, bulging of the lower intercostal spaces, and he was spitting up "brick red" pus. A pleuritic rub was noticed at the lower half of the right lung posteriorly, and a peculiar catch at the end of inspiration over the base. The sclerotic was a pearly hue. His bowels had been moved twelve times in the previous eight hours. The stool was watery, offensive, and dysenteric in type, free from blood. He was placed on milk diet with chicken broth, custard pudding, etc., and a powder containing Salol gr. v, Pulv. Ipecac. Co gr. iv given every 4 hours.

#

The sputum on examination showed broken down liver tissue, cells altered, with red blood corpuscles, much debris, and the amoeba coli. Tubercle bacilli were absent and various forms of cocci present. Urine free from albumen and sugar, acid reaction. Temperature for the next four days was of a hectic type reaching 102° F. in the evening, and dropping to 99° F. towards morning. Sputum continued copious, cough severe, and the liver dulness was considerably diminished. Diarrhoea still continued, from 7 to 20 stools in 24 hours, placed on Mist. Cret. et Bel. every 4 hours, with fair result, about 8 stools on an average being passed in the 24 hours.

On August 1st it was decided to administer chloroform and try to locate the abscess cavity and drain.

The liver was punctured in several places without result, and Potain's aspirator

being used.

On May 5th his temperature dropped to normal, cough and sputum were less and Pulv. Ipecac Ver. gr. xxx was given to check the diarrhoea. The patient passed a quantity of liver abscess pus in a stool on August 7th, up to this date he had lost 8 lbs. since his admission to Hospital. On the 20th patient was again placed on chalk and Bel. mixture. Stools averaged two to three per diem, cough had almost gone, little or no sputum, and temperature kept normal.

F. G., age 50, marine engineer of Scotch nationality, was admitted suffer- ring from alcoholism. According to the history of the case given by his friends. who brought him, patient had for many years been a steady drinker, but went to excess during the previous week. A few hours before admission patient tried to jump out of a second storey window, hence the anxiety of his friends to put him under restraint.

When admitted patient was in the usual maudlin-argumentative state of a chronic drinker who had taken too much, but not enough to send him to sleep. In appearance he was a short, stout, thick set man with florid flushed face and short neck. He talked fairly rational, knew where he was, and though disposed to be violent was amenable to firmness and reason. He stated he wanted a good sleep as he had not slept for many nights. His pulse was 86, and his temperature 100° F., after a glass of milk and soda water (as he was thirsty), and a sedative draught patient went to sleep. He had a good night, slept 6 hours, and at 5.30 a.m. draught was repeated, he then slept until 8 a.m. He stated he felt quite well, temp 101-4° F., pulse 88, a diaphoretic mixture was ordered every 4 hours, and milk, soda-water, chicken broth, etc., besides the ordinary low diet, which includes beef-tea.

At 7.30 p.m. temperature rose to 103 F., notes read "patient comfortable, takes his food, talks quite rational and feels better. States his resolve to stay in Hospital for at least a week, or until he is quite cured."

At 9.30 p.m. temperature was 103.4°. Phenacetine gr. ii and caffeine given in powder, ice-bag applied to the head; the powder was vomited.

gr. iv

His temperature steadily rose and at 10.10 p.m. reached 105'6' F. Cold sponging was started, ice-bag to head continued and ice and milk and soda given at intervals to allay thirst, patient grumbled at being cold sponged, talked rationally at times but sufferred from delusions.

10.40 p.m. temperature reduced to 103° F. Cold sponging stopped. 11 p.m a loose brown watery motion was passed. 11.10 p.m. Temperature rose suddenly to 105.6°, pulse 114, thready, patient incoherent. Cold sponging re-started 11.50 p.m. Temperature 102° F., Inj. Strych. Hypo grains x. given Brandy gi and water given at intervals of ten minutes. 12.10 a.m. Temperature 104.8 Cold sponging re-started. 12.40 a.m. Temperature 109° F., bowels open, motion loose, offensive, and brown colour. 12.50 a.m. Temperature 110° F. taken at axilla and rectum, and remained 110° F., in spite of every effort to reduce it. Patient was wrapped in sheets wrung out of ice water, and sheets in position rubbed with lump ice. Patient kept quite unconscious from 12.10 a.m., with noisy respiration, pulse 150, racing, till 1 55 a.m. when he died. Temperature registered 110° F. in axilla and rectum just before death, and in rectum five minutes after death.

TREATMENT OF PHTHISIS BY UREA.

Phthisis.-The treatment of this disease by urea, as suggested by Dr. HARPER in the Lancet of 1901, was tried in several cases, but the results were disappointing and as far as we are concerned this drug must be added to the already large list of drugs reputed to be cures but failing to hold their reputation. How Dr. HARPER obtained such excellent results is a mystery. The drug was only used in cases in which tubercle bacilli were found in the sputum. The dose was from fifteen grains up to thirty grains thrice daily. In not a single case (save one perhaps) was any decided benefit noticed.

The tubercle bacilli disappeared in some cases at first, and in others no effect was noticed, whilst in others they reappeared after a time though the patient was still taking the drug. It had no appreciable influence on the weight.

Of the ten cases in which it was tried, three died in Hospital.

In one case (Dr. Lowson's) after 6 weeks in Hospital, twenty grains of urea

were given and increased to thirty grains three times a day.

This patient was very ill and was aspirated several times, he had all and every attention in diet, &c., his weight went from 9.1 to 10.5 stones and the tubercle bacilli disappeared almost completely, this is the one exception referred to.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

CASE OF PARTURITION, CONTRACTED PELVIS, CRANIOTOMY, SEPTICÆMIA, PERINEORRHAPHY. RECOVERY.

C.C.T., Chinese female, age 19 years, primipara, was admitted to the Ma- ternity Hospital on September 24th, 1902, at 9 p.m. with a history of having been in labour for twenty hours. During this time she was attended by Chinese midwives who failed to deliver her.

On admission temperature was 102° F., labour pains strong and frequent, and on examination per vaginam the membranes were found ruptured. The head was just engaged in the pelvic brim which was contracted laterally, presentation occipito- anterior, and a commencing caput succedaneum was felt. Both rectum and bladder were empty. As operative interference was not urgent it was decided to watch the patient for a little and see if any progress was made, especially as the pains were good, and the uterus normal for the sceond stage of labour as ascertained by palpation.

In less than an hour patient was again examined per vaginam. Labias and perineum were found to be cedematous, the caput succedaneum had increaed in size, and no progress was made. Nenilles axis-traction forceps was applied with dif- ficulty as the blades refused to lock, until after considerable manipulation. Traction light, and strong produced no impression on the head even after an hour's steady work, and the forceps showed a tendency to slip. A pair of Barne's forceps, also Assilini's were tried, but both slipped, the former suddenly, resulting in a complete rupture of the perineum. With the advice of Dr. ROBERT GIBSON, who kindly saw the case with me, and who tried all the forceps in the Hospital, it was decided to perform as craniatomy especially as the labour pains were very frequent and forcible. Bandl's ring could be distinctly felt a hand's breadth above the pubes, with thinning of the lower uterine segment, and a rupture of the uterus was only a matter of time. Accordingly chloroform was administered, Simpson's perforator and cranioclast used and a male child 8 lbs. weight was delivered in twenty minutes. The placenta came away in ten minutes. Ergot was administered, there was no post partum hæmorrhage.

Both uterus and vagina were thoroughly douched out with a warm Lysol douche. The perineum showed a complete rupture into the rectum which was torn to the extent of one inch. It was not thought advisable then to repair the rupture, so the parts were thoroughly cleansed and patient, who was quite worn out, was put to bed.

ت

Temperature next morning was 101 reaching 103. 2 in the evening. The vagina was douched out twice during the day with a weak solution of permanganate of potash. A mixture containing Ext. Ergot. Liq. m. xx with Tinct. Opii. m. v was ordered every four hours. For the next two days the temperaturé remained steady between 102 and 103° F. Blood examined showed no malaria, patient had all the symptoms of fever, furred tongue, pulse 90, hot dry skin, headache, etc., also the uterus was very tender, lochia offensive, and as a Sapræmic infection was thought to be present the uterus was douched out twice daily with 1 in 2000 solution of corrosive sublimate.

On the 29th inst. as the lochia was still offensive and bad coloured, and the Temp. 103-42, chloroform was given, and the uterus thoroughly curetted with a blunt curette, then douched out for five minutes with a Lysol douche. A liberal Slop diet was given, e.g., milk, beef-tea, brandy, chicken broth, eggs and milk, etc., and Pil. Quininae gr. v given every four hours. Bowels were opened with castor oil. For the next five days temperature varied between 100·8 to 103°, pulse 88 to 96, uterine tenderness and headache continued, though getting gradually less and the bowels were kept open with House Mixture given every second night. The corrosive sublimate douche was continued twice a day.

On October 5th (tenth day after parturition) the temperature fell to normal and remained so during the progress of the case. The lochia was now sweet and of the "Serosai" type, uterine tenderness gone, and uterus retracting normally.

Convalescence was uneventful and patient was transferred in a fortnight to the Asiatic Female Ward in the Government Civil Hospital, with the idea of repairing the perineum when all uterine discharge had ceased.

941

942

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

On November 13th chloroform was administered, the edges of the torn rectum. trimmed and brought together by means of three strong catgut sutures which were left buried. The perineum was then freshened, fine "purse-string" sutures of silkworm gut were inserted and tied carefully. The usual after-treatment was carried out. Bowels were kept confined for a week, then opened with a small enema. The vagina was washed out thrice daily with a weak antiseptic lotion, and the parts kept clean. As catheter was passed every 6 hours, and the patient lay on her side with knees lightly strapped together. The silkworm gut sutures were removed on the 12th day, and patient was discharged from Hospital, a few days later, perineum sound and ample, and having complete control of her motions.

This case is interesting as one of pure septicemia in which the absorption of morbific material into the blood gives rise to symptoms of blood poisoning without the development of local lesions. The attack coming on immediately after child- birth indicates infection during or previous to labour. As this patient must have been in the hands of the Chinese midwives for 12 hours or more, and subjected to manipulation with their unwashed hands, and long septic finger nails, one marvels both at her rapid recovery and the vitatily of the race.

CASE OF PARTURITION COMPLICATED BY MALARIAL FEVER.

M. C., an English lady, was admitted to the Maternity Hospital on December 21st, 1902.

Patient was a primipara, up to full time, and stated that she had been suffer- ing from fever for some days and her temperature had reached 105° F. Though not in labour when admitted, patient was recommended to come in at once owing to the fever, and especially as both she and her relatives were very anxious.

Temperature on admission at 9 p.m. was 101.6° F. descending to 98° F. on the following morning. She was placed on low diet, milk and chicken broth with a diaphoretic mixture to be taken every 4 hours. A blood film was examined at noon which showed patient to be suffering from malarial fever of mixed infection, (simple tertian and æstivo-autumnal).

A five-grain quinine pill was ordered thrice daily and one pill was given at 6 p.m. when the temperature was 98.2° F.

Symptoms of commencing labour were then apparent, and the pains continued during the night. At 6 a.m. on the 23rd instant the temperature was 100° F. reach- ing 100.5° F. at 12.15 p.m. when the child was born.

Beyond slight post-partum hæmorrhage, checked by hot lysol douche, the labour was normal.

Pil. Quinine grains five was now ordered every four hours but the temperature steadily rose and at 8 p.m. same evening reached 104° F. Except for a severe headache patient stated she felt very comfortable. The diaphoretic mixture was continued and by noon on the 24th instant her temperature registered 97.4° F. The temperature now remained normal and on the 27th a blood film was examined when a few ring form parasites were found, but no simple tertian parasites were to be seen. Quinine was continued and patient discharged 18 days afterwards free from malaria after repeated careful blood examinations, temperature having been normal for 20 days.

This case is interesting from the fact that patient had only arrived in this Colony a few months previously, she never had malaria before, and did not come from a malarial district, but during her stay in Hongkong, she had resided in a locality known to be infested with anopheles and where malaria was rife (Macdon- nell Road).

Immediate blood examination revealed the cause of the fever, and the subse- quent rise of temperature after labour caused no anxiety as to sepsis, etc., besides enabling us to ease the mind of the patient and her relatives as to prognosis.

CASE OF MADURA FOOT.

An Indian, aged 36, was admitted on 4th January. The right foot was swol- len with several sinuses leading to dead bone. The sinuses were discharging an oily purulent material smelling very offensively. The disease was of three months' duration and the patient had been in Hongkong for eleven months, previous to this he lived in the Punjaub. The disease somewhat resembled syphilitic necrosis and he was treated with iodide of potassium for some time but without any result. A sincar from the discharge was full of streptothrix. He was advised to submit to amputation but he declined this radical treatment and left on 28th February.

This case shows that the streptothrix infection exists in this Colony and further cases of this interesting disease may be expected to occur.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 1st March, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to forward to you the Annual Medical Report on the Government Lunatic Asylums for the year ending December 31st, 1902.

On March 7th I took over charge from Dr. J. BELL, who proceeded on leave. I attach Table IX which shows the admissions and deaths that have occurred during the

year, and Table X the number of patients under the respective diseases. The total number of patients admitted to the Asylums was 120, as against 90 in the year 1901, which shows a considerable increase and the need for such an Institution in the Colony.

Europeans.-Three females were admitted during the year. Two suffered from alcoholism and peripheral neuritis, and one a Roumanian Jewess, from acute mania, both this woman and the American female who was admitted in April, 1895, now remain in the Asylum. They are quite incurable. The number of male patients admitted shows an increase of 18 over last year. Of these, 12 were suffer- ing from alcoholism or delirium tremens. Such cases require continuous vigilance and attention and can be treated with greater safety in the Asylum than in the Hospital. They have the same dieting and skilled attendance, and when violent can be restrained from injuring themselves and others. The moral effect on a patient suffering from alcoholism when he finds himself in an Asylum cannot but be beneficial, at least for a time. Two of the patients admitted have, to my know- ledge, given up drinking when they discovered their nearness to ordinary insanity. No fresh cases of mania following intemperance have come under my notice during the year.

One case of the Dementia from this cause recovered.

The English sailor admitted in January, 1899, is still in the Asylum. He is quite incurable, and is the noisest Lunatic under my care.

Of the 29 Europeans admitted, 1 was under observation, 3 were handed over to their friends and sent home, 17 were discharged cured, 1 died, leaving 7 remain- ing on December 31st.

The man who died was an Englishman ages 68 years, admitted in September, 1901, suffering from Senile decay. He succumbed to an attack of Diarrhea following general debility.

Indians and Coloured.-There were four admissions during the year and two deaths, both from dementia.

Asiatics (Chinese and Japanese).-The admissions this year were 87, as against 76 in 1901. The number of females were 20 shewing a decrease of 5, as compared with last year, and a corresponding increase of 16 male lunatics.

There were 10 deaths. 38 patients were sent to Canton, 35 handed over to their friends when claimed, 3 under observation were discharged, leaving 11 patients in the Asylum on December 31st.

The death-rate amongst the Chinese patients was certainly very high in proportion to that of previous years; but it must be remembered that the majority of Chinese lunatics are brought in by the Police who find them half starved and wandering about, neglected by their friends. Many of these cases are diseased both physically and mentally, and with such lowered vitality they readily succumb to their physical condition or any onset of acute disease.

Dementia appears to be the commonest form of insanity amongst the Asia- tics; 44 cases were treated during the year.

I am pleased to be able to report that no accident occurred during the year. One Chinese patient attempted to commit suicide in his room by hanging, but the vigilance of the attendants averted this calamity.

Wardmaster J. R. LEE returned from leave in April. and resumed duty in the Asylum in August.

943

944

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

The Asylum buildings are in a good state of repair: The European block was painted and colour-washed outside during the year.

Minor internal improvements

were also carried out.

The fireplaces in each ward are satisfactory, and added much to the comfort of the patients in the winter months.

Electric light was installed in October. All the wards are well lit, ventilation is improved and risks from fire lessened.

Urinals and water-closets -- automatically flushed-are a necessity,

                    -are a necessity, as with the present sanitary arrangements it is almost impossible to keep the latrines free from

odour.

The padded rooms are unsatisfactory, though they were re-padded lately. The painted canvas coverings are difficult to clean and prevent getting offensive.

The rubber-coated pads which you suggested for the special rooms will be a great improvement from a hygienic point of view.

The present buildings though admirably suited as a Detention House for the insane, cannot be said to be suitable for the treatment of mental disorders. Its only advantage is its proximity to the Government Civil Hospital, which obviates the necessity of a Resident Medical Officer. The insane requires for efficient treatment bright and pleasant surroundings and above all things occupation both in-door and out-door. This they cannot have in their present cramped space. Accommodation is also limited, and both the European and Asiatic blocks have been over-crowded several times during the year. With the growth of the Colony this

becomes a serious matter.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

THE PRINCIPAL CIVIL MEDICAL OFFICER.

KENNEDY TOWN, HONGKONG, 8th January, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to report, for the information of His Excellency the Governor, regarding the Infectious Diseases Hospital at Kennedy Town, for the year 1902.

I enclose a Return of Diseases and Deaths in the Hospital during 1902. Small-pox.-17 cases of small-pox were admitted, of whom 3, all Chinese, died. Further experience confirms my opinion of the value of Salol in the treatment of this disease, to which I referred in my last year's report.

Cholera.-52 cases of cholera were admitted, of whom 33 died. Of the fatal cases a large proportion were moribund at the time of arrival, 21 dying within 24 hours after admission. The racial mortality was as follows:-

During this epidemic anti-plague serum was for the first time available. was obtained in monthly instalments from the Pasteur Institute in Paris, and was used systematically throughout the epidemic. The method of administration and the quantity used were as recommended by the Pasteur Institute Authorities. Allow- ance was made for sex, age, and other circumstances, but as a rule 40 c. c. of the serum were injected intravenously, and 20 c. c. subcutaneously, on admission, and 20 c. c. subcutaneously on each subsequent day while fever lasted. In spite of this, the mortality from plague was 85.11%. During the past three years the mortality

has been:

1900,

1901,

1902,

77.5%

76.5

85.1 19

This actual increase of mortality I regard as an accidental circumstance in the consideration of a comparatively small number of cases; but the anti-plague serum as supplied to us from Paris is manifestly useless, though this uselessness in Hong- kong may be due to deterioration through lapse of time and through exposure to hot temperatures during transit from Paris.

Towards the end of the Plague epidemic I reported specially on this subject, under the date 7th August, 1902, and showed the main details of every case treated with the serum up to that date in the form of a tabular statement, which, however, I do not think it necessary to reproduce here. I suggested that it would be well to initiate arrangements forthwith for a supply of anti-plague serum being prepared in this Colony in good time for the next probable recrudescence of the disease, as the question of the value of such a serum is one of great practical importance to the Colony, and the curative qualities, if any, are at a maximum immediately after production from an immunized animal. What I suggested was authorized," and I understand that the Government Bacteriologist has this matter in hand.

Observation Cases.-A much larger number of cases than usual were sent to Kennedy Town for observation purposes. The diagnoses are shown in the appended Return of Diseases, and they for the most part suggest the infective conditions under suspicion of which these patients were sent to this Hospital.

946

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

THE STAFF.

Mr. C. F. O'BRIEN was Wardmaster in charge at the beginning of the year. Mr. W. MCKAY was appointed Second Wardmaster on 6th May, coming from England to take up this post, and has been in charge since 21st June, on which date Mr. O'BRIEN was dismissed from the service.

Dr. JEU HAWK acted as resident House-Physician throughout the epidemic season, from 28th April to 17th September.

When female European patients were under treatment, Nursing Sisters were detailed from the Civil Hospital for duty at Kennedy-Town, two Sisters being now held in readiness for immediate attendance when required.

The staff of Chinese "boys," amahs, and other employées was increased and diminished as was found necessary to meet the very varying conditions that existed in course of the year.

Dr. R. LAMORT acted for me during my absence from Hongkong at the begin- ning of last year. I resumed charge on my return to the Colony on 5th February.

THE HOSPITAL Buildings.

The Hospital buildings are in good repair, and the grounds have been enclosed with an iron fence. A grant of plants in pots made from the Public Gardens greatly improves the appearance of the Hospital.

Pending the erection of a Bacteriological Laboratory, part of the office, part of the dispensary, and certain out-buildings have been placed at the disposal of Dr. HUNTER for laboratory purposes.

HYGEIA".

A few of the small-pox cases were treated on board the "Hygeia," which was anchored off Kennedy Town throughout the epidemic season, ready for use when required.

Report of the Medical Officer of Victoria Gaol.

VICTORIA GAOL,

HONGKONG, 10th January, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to submit, for the information of His Excellency the Governor, the medical report on the health and sanitary condition of Victoria Gaol for the year 1902.

Dr. R. LAMORT acted for me during my absence from Hongkong at the begin- ning of last year. I resumed medical charge of the Gaol on my return to the Colony on 5th February.

The health of the Gaol Staff has been good, but dengue was severely pre- valent among the warders and guards during the epidemic of that disease.

The new Warders' Quarters have been completed, and the new Gaol Hospital became available for patients on 11th June.

The sanitary condition of the Gaol is satisfactory. But overcrowding has been more or less continuous since the New Territory was taken over, and the question of increased Gaol accommodation for the Colony is one of pressing importance. Both the number of admissions to the Gaol last year-5,988-and the daily average population-576-are the largest on record; and reference to Table IV, showing general statistics connected with the Gaol during the past ten years, will show how serious is the increase as compared with all previous years. An important con- sideration that does not appear in the figures is, that on account of the serious crime that has had to be dealt with by the Courts during the past year or two, there is a great increase in the number of long-sentence prisoners, that is, in the comparatively permanent population of the Gaol, so that there is no prospect that even a consider- able diminution of crime in the Colony might tend to rectify the existing state of congestion in the Gaol. In 1901 the number of admissions was 5,077, and the daily average number of prisoners 499.

In spite of these circumstances the general health of the prisoners has on the whole been satisfactory. While the number of admissions to Hospital is larger, partly on account of more adequate hospital accommodation being available, the rate of sickness and mortality in the Gaol, as shown in Table II, is less than in the previous year.

3,973 prisoners were vaccinated. All prisoners are vaccinated on admission, unless health reasons render it undesirable, or evidence of previous small-pox or recent vaccination renders it unnecessary.

During the epidemic of dengue 131 prisoners were attacked. All made good recoveries. One case of cholera occurred. There was no plague.

947

948

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

Twenty prisoners were found to be suffering from leprosy at the time of admission to the Gaol, and were deported. Fifteen others were discharged on medical grounds (beri-beri, cholera, insanity, serious heart or lung disease, &c.).

There were six deaths from natural causes, and three executions. no case of suicide.

No case of corporal punishment required any after-treatment.

I append the following Tables:-

I. Return of Diseases and Deaths in 1902. II. Rate of Sickness and Mortality in 1902. III. Vaccinations during the past ten years. IV. General Statistics of the Gaol for ten years.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

REPORT OF THE MEDICAL OFFICER TO THE TUNG WAH HOSPITAL.

TUNG WAH HOSPITAL, HONGKONG, 14th February, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to submit, for the information of His Excellency the Governor, the Annual Report of the Tung Wah Hospital for the year 1902.

The number of patients in the wards at the beginning of the year was 144; 2,576 were admitted during 1902, making a total of 2,720 cases; 1,422 were discharged; 1,169 died; leaving 129 patients in the Hospital at the close of the

year.

The admissions during the past ten years have been as follows:-

1902,

Of the 2,576 admissions, 95 were transferred for treatment to other institu- tions, as follows:-20 to Government Civil Hospital, 3 to the Lunatic Asylum, 71 to Kennedy Town Infectious Diseases Hospital, and 1 to the Italian Convent.

Of the fatal cases, 364 were in a dying condition at the time of admission. There remains a net total of 2,117 actually treated in the Tung Wah Hospital, of whom 675, i.e., 31.9 per cent., were under treatment by European methods, and 1,442, i.e., 68.1 per cent., under Chinese treatment.

The diminution in the number of admissions is due to the smaller number of plague cases; the number of those actually treated is practically the same as last year's figure (2,146); and the proportion under European treatment is slightly larger, 31.9 per cent., as compared with 30,4 per cent. in 1901.

There is, moreover, a marked tendency to improvement in the work of the Tung Wah Hospital which cannot be expressed in figures. All cases diagnosed malaria are required to take quinine, whether under European or Chinese treatment. By a recent resolution of the Directors, all cases of infectious disease go under European methods of treatment, and are hence more under the control of the Inspecting Medical Officer; the violent jealousy that previously existed against the introduction of European methods, especially among the native doctors, has to a large extent subsided, and they are frequently ready to be advised by the European- trained house-surgeon, who thus influences the treatment of many cases of fracture, dislocation, abscess, &c., which remain nominally under Chinese treatment; and many matters pertaining to the regular changing of bedding, clothing, &c., formerly secured only by continuous effort and watchfulness, have now become routine practice.

302 dead bodies were brought to the Hospital mortuary to await burial. 126 of these, and also 120 bodies of persons who died within the Hospital itself, were sent to the Government Public Mortuary for internal examination.

Free burial was provided by the Hospital for 2,703 poor persons. The number of visits to the Out-Patient Department was 88,842. 456 destitute persons were provided with food and shelter for short periods. 1,706 persons were vaccinated at, and in connection with, the Hospital.

It was

The Tung Wah Hospital was again used during the plague epidemic as a con venient centre for the diagnosis and observation of cases of the disease. not found necessary to open a plague branch of the Hospital during 1902.

During the cholera epidemic, two large airy wards were set apart for the treat- ment of this disease. Several cases originated within the Hospital, but the Assistant Medical Officer of Health, after careful enquiry, came to the conclusion that the cause was contamination of the water supply outside the Hospital.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

The new buildings, to form an extension of the Hospital on the opposite side. of Po Yan Street, are now finished, except that water and gas have not yet been laid on; and the Infectious Diseases Branch seems nearing completion.

During my absence from the Colony at the beginning of the year, Dr. R. LAMORT acted for me as Inspecting Medical Officer, and I resumed duty on my return to Hongkong on 5th February.

Dr. CHUNG KING UE, after repeated absences due to ill-health, was invalided on 17th September, and his illness proved fatal a few weeks later. During his absences Dr. Ho Ko TSUN acted for him, doing in all some six months' service as House-Surgeon, and his work was very satisfactory. On Dr. CHUNG'S retirement, Dr. JEU HAWK, who holds the degree M. D. of the University of Oregon, U. S. A., was appointed to succeed him.

I desire to place on record my high appreciation of the large service rendered by the late Dr. CHUNG to the Tung Wah Hospital. His kindness, courtesy, tact, and professional skill combined to enable him to effect the very great improvements that were made during his tenure of office, and for which the credit is practically entirely due to him.

I attach the following Tables:-

THE WORKING OF THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT IN THE NEW TERRITORY.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL MEDICAL DEPARTMENT,

21st February, 1903.

Mr. Ho NAI Hor, Chinese Medical Officer, resided at Tai Po and visited periodically the several Police Stations and villages in the New Territory. I enclose his report on the work done in 1902.

From this it will be seen that more than double the number of patients were treated than in the previous year, the figures being 2,908 in 1902 as compared with 1,267 in 1901.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

Malarial Fever.-There was a considerable diminution in the number of cases occurring especially amongst the members of the Police Force.

This I attribute, to a great extent, to the prophylactic administration of qui- nine, from the 1st May to the beginning of December. Each of the Police, whether European, Indian or Chinese, was given three grains of quinine daily.

Cholera.-This disease was prevalent in May. Active measures were taken to check it by the issue of notices warning the Chinese against eating unripe fruit, un- cooked vegetables, &c., and advising them always to boil their drinking water.

Small-pox.―This disease was epidemic at Tai Po and Sha Tin districts in the Spring of the year, some twenty cases occurring with but one death.

Prompt measures were taken by vaccinating all the Civil Staff, and as far as possible most of the villagers, with calf lymph, and apparently with success as the disease did not spread to the neighbouring districts.

Vaccinations.--Free vaccination was carried on at the Police Stations during the winter months and altogether during the year 336 vaccinations were performed as compared with 78 in 1901.

..

Plague. No case was reported as having occurred during the year.

TOXICOLOGICAL.

3. The toxicological cases investigated comprised eleven cases of suspected human poisoning. The poison found in seven of these was opium. In a case of suspected intent to poison, a powder was found to contain sugar mixed with ten per cent. of arsenic.

WATERS.

4. The results of the analyses of samples taken each month from the Pokfu- lum and Tytam Reservoirs, from the Kowloon Service, and the Cheung Sha Wan supply, indicate that these supplies continue to maintain their excellent qualities.

Owing to the scarcity of the public supplies in Victoria during the first few months of the year, water had to be brought over from a stream at Tsin Wan. Owing to the possibility of this water becoming contaminated, daily examinations were made from March 17th to May 21st. After heavy rain the chlorine figure. was increased, and a slight turbidity lasting for about 36 hours was caused, but, otherwise, the quality of the water remained unimpaired.

In an Appendix will be found particulars of the monthly analyses of the public supplies, and of other waters.

7. A number of various kinds of food were examined for the public at the specially low fees laid down in the Ordinance.

8. The result of the systematic method of taking samples by the Police has been that the sale of adulterated liquor has ceased in the Colony.

BLOOD STAINS.

9. Twenty-nine articles consisting of clothing and weapons were examined.

BUILDING MATERIALS.

10. Samples of lime, mortar, cement, and red earth, have been sent for analysis.

In connection with some enquiries into the cause of the collapse of several buildings it was necessary to examine several mortars. In order to observe the effect of the heavy rains of 1902 on good and bad mortar, samples were prepared containing various proportions of lime and red earth. It was found from experi- ments lasting over three months that mortars, when not containing more than eight volumes of red earth to one volume of lime, became harder when kept under water, than when exposed in the ordinary way. Mortars containing more than eight volumes of red earth to one volume of lime became weaker with increasing age, whether exposed in air or in water. Mortar made in the proportion of two volumes of red earth to one volume of lime, underwent no deterioration when kept under sea-water, but became perceptibly stronger than a portion of the same sample ex- posed to air only.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 26TH JUNE, 1903.

LIME.

11. Nine samples were examined. The quality of this material demands atten- tion. It is frequently contaminated by much lime carbonate, also by sand.

CHINESE DRugs.

12. Thirteen were sent to the laboratory for identification, and, in the case of mixed drugs, for the presence therein of noxious constituents.

EXAMINATIONS FOR THE PUBLIC.

13. A considerable number of articles of various kinds have been examined for the public. The list comprises ores, coal, liquor, milk, lime, cement, petroleum, tin, opium, medicine, granite, and water. For these examinations the public have paid $1,849.50 in fees.

SPECIAL REPORTS.

14. Special reports have been supplied on:----

Naphtha.

Mortars.

Spirit of wine.

Chloride of lime.

Hongkong Poisons Regulations.

15. Value of the work done.-The value of the analyses performed as deter- mined from the tariff of charges published in Government Notification No. 664 is $7,820.00.

NOTICE TO MARINERS. No. 3 of 1903.

GULF ST. VINCENT-PORT ADELAIDE RIVER.

LIGHT'S PASSAGE HARBOR WORKS.

Masters of Vessels, Pilots, and others are informed that during the construction of the training wall near the entrance to the Port Adelaide River, lights will be exhibited from the piles which have been erected as follows :-

-

An ordinary ship's riding light will be shown from the pile furthest to seaward, viz., abreast of the remains of the old pile lighthouse, and two others at distances of about half a mile between each on the starboard hand from seaward. The outer one abreast of the old pile lighthouse, stands in about 12ft. and the other two in 6ft, and 3ft. respectively.

Four beacons for dredging marks will also be erected on the flats south and eastward of No. 1 leading beacons. These beacons will be surmounted by a head in the shape of the letter X. When the dredgers are working at night, these beacons will be lighted as follows :--The southern pair, one light on each; the northern pair, two white lights vertical, 3ft. apart on each.

   As these beacons and lights are on the flats, well out of the channel, no difficulty to navigation is anticipated. Steam- ers passing dredgers, barges, and pile drivers, or any work in progress, are required to slow down. (See By-law September 8th, 1892.)

This affects Admiralty Chart No. 1750.

2. What is the annual sum paid by the Colony to the Crown Agents during the past three years, giving salary and commissions separately, or what annual sum has been charged to the Colony for the services of the Crown Agents?

3. (a.) Are all orders for material, etc., sent to Europe on behalf of the Colony, made

through the Crown Agents?

(b.) If not, what system is adopted with regard to such orders which are not exe-

cuted by the Crown Agents?

4. (a.) What system is adopted to ensure that all orders on behalf of the Colony are executed by the firm best able to carry out the work at the most reasonable price?

(b.) If orders are put up to tender only for those firms on the Crown Agents' lists,

how are these firms selected?

(c.) Can any reputable firm on application be placed on the Crown Agents' lists, or do the Crown Agents exercise a right to refuse to place a firm on their list? (d.) In the event of such a refusal, has the firm thus rejected any right of appeal

and, if so, to whom?

5. Will the Government state whether they received a letter from the Secretary of the Sanitary Board sent by direction of the President, conveying the folloring resolu- tion unanimously adopted at the meeting of property owners at the Sanitary Board office on 18th May, convened by advertisement in European newspapers in the Colony, namely:-"That the permission of II. E. the Governor be obtained to have the report, which was read by Dr. Pearse at the meeting on the subject of over- crowding and its abatement, printed and circulated amongst the European land owners in the Colony"?

Or is it true, as rumoured, that the report has been withdrawn from circulation and that the information which has been placed at the disposal of the Chinese will not be available for European land owners?

9. Does the Government approve of the request of the Chairman that the Europeans

should leave the meeting of land owners abore referred to?

10. Will the Government instruct the Government Printers to print a larger number of copies of Ordinances, as it appears that the Passenger Act (No. 1 of 1889)

CANCER RESEARCH FUND.

The idea of forming a Cancer Research Fund in England with the object of investigating the cause, nature, and treatment of Cancer originated in October, 1901, in some conversations between a private gentleman and a member of the Council of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.

   It was confidently anticipated by this gentleman that through his own influence, in the City of London and elsewhere, he would be able to obtain, within a very short period, £100,000 or £150,000 for the establishment of such a Fund.

   It was then, as it still is, thought that £100,000 at least is necessary, because of the great com- plexity and difficulty of the undertaking, and because of the great length of time all such scientific investigations require for their prosecution and verification. It was intended, therefore, to raise a sum of money, the interest on which would suffice, or nearly suffice, for the annual working expenses, that the capital should be invested in the names of five Trustees, and that in the happy event of the inves- tigation proving successful, the Fund should subsequently be employed either in furthering the prevention of Cancer, and for the continuance of the treatment of poor persons afflicted with the disease, or for the scientific investigation of other diseases and their treatment.

   The two Royal Colleges were requested to take control of the investigation, and they consented to do so on condition that the money was forthcoming in the manner stated, and without any appeal for funds being made either by, or in the names of, the Royal Colleges.

   Unfortunately the gentleman referred to was taken seriously ill almost immediately after this understanding with the Royal Colleges; and his death followed in the early part of the Spring of 1902, without his having been able to bring the matter under the notice of his official and private friends.

   It was not, however, allowed to drop, and promises of donations of £5,000 each from the Gold- smiths' Company, Mr. BISCHOFFSHEIM and Messrs. WERNHER, BEIT & COMPANY were shortly obtained. Further, an appeal letter was published in "The Times" of April 18th, signed by ADELINE, Duchess of BEDFORD, and seventeen other influential ladies and gentlemen, and the cause was warmly advocated by "The Times" in "Leading" and "Special" articles. *

As soon as £30,000 were in hand, the two Royal Colleges consented to make a start in the inves- tigation, though recognising the fact that with so small a fund, it would be imperative to spend the capital itself, and that thus the period over which the research could be maintained, as well as the scope of the research itself, would have to be limited.

   The Scheme was set going by the Royal Colleges in July last (1902). The Executive Committee appointed to carry out the administration of the Fund consists of the Presidents of the Royal College• of Physicians and of the Royal College of Surgeons, the Director of the Royal Veterinary College, the Professor of Pathology of the University of Cambridge, and representatives of the Royal Society, and of other important bodies.

   The General Committee consists of donors of £1,000 and upwards, of representatives of the Colonial Office, of the Local Government Board, and of various other Public Bodies.

His Royal Highness the Prince of WALES consented to become President of the Fund, and His Majesty the King has graciously allowed his name to be added as Patron.

   The important position of Superintendent of Cancer Research was filled in October last, by the appointment of Dr. E. F. BASHFORD. Dr. BASHFORD has made a thorough investigation of the work done on the Continent, and is now in communication with scientific workers in the Colonies, and in the United States.

The investigation has already become active in several directions. A Statistical Committee, con- sisting of well-known experts and of representatives from the Colonial Office, is fully engaged in A Patholo- considering the best methods of statistical investigation, both in this country and abroad. gical Committee is also engaged in studying the subject of Cancer in animals-a field of enquiry which up to the present has not been cultivated. An endeavour is being made to collect animals suffering from Cancer, and to keep them on a farm to be provided for the purpose, with a view to the investiga- tion as to heredity, diet, and treatment. This part of the research must necessarily be an expensive and an extensive one; but it is believed that the knowledge to be obtained from this study will be of such a character as to fully justify the outlay.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 17TH JULY, 1903.

1035

Another branch of the investigation is the careful examination of the records of malignant disease in the large hospitals. From this investigation, reliable Pathological data of considerable importance will, it is hoped, be obtained, indicating the lines to follow, in more extended enquiries, into the inci- dence of the disease as it occurs in this country, in India, and throughout the Colonies. It is the wish of the Committee to avail itself of all sources of information, and of the services of all who are willing to aid the research, whether in this country, in India, in the Colonies, or in foreign countries.

It has been calculated that in order to thoroughly carry on the research in its various branches, without break or loss of continuity, £3,000 a year at least is required. At the present time only a little over £50,000 has been received, but it is hoped that public-spirited men in India and in the British Colonies will assist the efforts made in the United Kingdom to raise the necessary capital.

It is the desire of the Executive Committee to make the objects of the Fund widely known to all British subjects, whether in India or in the Colonies, with a view to enlisting their interest in the scientific objects, as well as in the pecuniary position, of the Fund.

(4.) What were the number of designs received in the recent competition for the Post

Office?

(5.) Can the Government give the date approximately when they will be in a position to invite tenders and proceed actively with the work of the construction of the Post Office?

QUESTIONS.-Mr. SHEWAN, pursuant to notice, asked the following Questions:-

Will the Honourable the Colonial Secretary be good enough to give the following information respecting the working of the Crown Agents system with regard to this Colony:

1. (a.) What method is adopted for paying the Crown Agents?

(b.) Do the Crown Agents receive a commission on orders executed in addition to

regular salaries?

(c.) Do they receive remuneration from other Crown Colonies in addition to this? 2. What is the annual sum paid by the Colony to the Crown Agents during the past three years, giving salary and commissions separately, or what annual sum has been charged to the Colony for the services of the Crown Agents?

3. (a.) Are all orders for material, etc., sent to Europe on behalf of the Colony, made

through the Crown Agents?

(b.) If not, what system is adopted with regard to such orders which are not exe-

cuted by the Crown Agents?

4. (a.) What system is adopted to ensure that all orders on behalf of the Colony are executed by the firm best able to carry out the work at the most reasonable price?

(b.) If orders are put up to tender only for those firms on the Crown Agents' lists,

how are these firms selected?

(c.) Can any reputable firm on application be placed on the Crown Agents' lists, or do the Crown Agents exercise a right to refuse to place a firm on their list? (d.) In the event of such a refusal, has the firm thus rejected any right of appeal

and, if so, to whom?

5. Will the Government state whether they received a letter from the Secretary of the Sanitary Board sent by direction of the President, conveying the following resolu- tion unanimously adopted at the meeting of property owners at the Sanitary Board office on 18th May, convened by advertisement in European newspapers in the Colony, namely "That the permission of II. E. the Governor be obtained to have the report, which was read by Dr. Pearse at the meeting on the subject of over- crowding and its abatement, printed and circulated amongst the European land owners in the Colony"?

6. If so, has any reply been sent thereto? If not, why not?

7. Is the Government aware that the President of the Sanitary Board stated at the Board on the 19th instant that no answer had been received to that letter, but that the report had been laid on the table and was accessible to the Press if they wanted it?

1068

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

8. Does the Government propose to print and circulate Dr. Pearse's report in terms of

the resolution? Or is it true, as rumoured, that the report has been withdrawn from circulation and that the information which has been placed at the disposal of the Chinese will not be available for European land owners?

9. Does the Government approve of the request of the Chairman that the Europeans

should leave the meeting of land owners above referred to?

Amendment

of s. 3 of Ordinance 21 of 1901.

Repeal.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to amend The Foreshores and Sea Bed Ordinance, No. 21 of 1901, and to repeal sub-section (1.) of section 1 of Ordinance No. 11 of 1902.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. The first proviso to section 3 of Ordinance No. 21 of 1901 shall hereafter be read and construed as if the words one month" instead of the words "three months" appear- ed therein in the sixth and twelfth lines thereof.

2. Sub-section (1.) of section 1 of Ordinance No. 11 of 1902 is hereby repealed.

Objects and Reasons.

To reduce the period of notice required by the first proviso to section 3 of Ordinance No, 21 of 1901 from three months to one month.

The reduction is desired because it has been found nu- necessary and inconvenient in practice to require such a long period of notice as three months to be given before the Governor can grant Crown Leases of Foreshore or Sea Bed.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to amend Ordinance No. 18 of 1900 entitled "An Ordinance to facilitate the hear- ing, determination, and settlement of land claims in the New Territories, to establish a Land Court, and for other purposes."

WHEREAS by virtue of the Convention dated the 9th day of June, 1898, between Her late Majesty Queen Victoria and His Majesty the Emperor of China, and by virtue of the New Territories Land Court Ordinance, 1900, all land in the New Territories is the property of the Crown du- ring the term specified in the said Convention: And where- as by the third section of the said Ordinance it is declared that, subject to the provisions of the said Ordinance and notwithstanding any previous registration, all claims in relation to land in the New Territories, so as aforesaid the property of the Crown, shall be heard and determined by the Land Court: And whereas the rights of the Crown in the said land in the New Territories and the interests of the public therein have been, and may hereafter be, in- juriously affected by decisions of the said Land Court upon claims in respect of land in the New Territories, the pro- perty of the Crown as aforesaid; and it is expedient to provide for the protection of such rights and interests: And whereas for the purpose of affording such protection it is expedient to make provision for appeals by the Crown from decisions of the Land Court upon claims made in respect of land in the New Territories the property of the Crown as aforesaid.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:--

1. This Ordinance may be cited as "The New Terri- tories Laud Court (Amendment) Ordinance, 1903."

2. The Chief Justice may at any time upon good cause shown grant to the Crown leave to appeal to the Full Court of the Supreme Court from any decision of the Land Court heretofore made, or hereafter to be made, on any claim in relation to land in the New Territories, whether the Crown did or did not appear before the said Land Court on the hearing of such claim; and may pending such appeal stay

all proceedings arising directly or indirectly out of any may stay decision on any such claim so appealed from.

proceedings pending appeal.

3. The procedure to be followed on such appeal shall be Procedure. as nearly as may be the same as is from time to time pre- scribed in case of appeals from the Puisne Judge to the Full Court.

1071

Objects and Reasons.

To supply an omission in the New Territories Land Court Ordinance, 1900, by providing that the Crown may appeal to the Supreme Court in cases where Crown rights and public interests in land in the New Territories are in- juriously affected by a decision of the Land Court.

There is reason to believe that the Land Court has from time to time been imposed upon by the production by claimants of forged documents of title and of other fraud- ulent evidence in support of claims in respect of land in the New Territories the property of the Crown, and that by such means decisions of the Land Court in favour of claim- ants have from time to time been improperly obtained.

The right of appeal which the Ordinance coufers is how- ever a general one, and is not confined to those cases in which the decision of the Land Court is believed to have been erroneous owing to the Court having been frandulently imposed upon. There are other cases, apart from those tainted with frand, in which the decisions of the Land Court do now and may hereafter so seriously and injuriously affect public interests that it is not only expedient but imperative to seek the opinion of the highest judicial authority on the matter in question.

The extensions granted were unimportant. They included a small area for the Peak Tramway Co.'s car depôt, which is held on a short lease; a small trian- gular area adjoining MacDonnell Road for Inland Lot 1384; and a small wedge- shaped area which had originally been intended to form part of Hung Hom Inland Lot 224, but had, evidently through an oversight, been omitted.

The grants on short leases comprised an area of 4 acres at Pokfulam, let to the Dairy Farm Co. for cultivating grass for their cattle; over an acre at Cause- way Bay, let to Kennedy's Trustees for the erection of temporary stabling for ponies; about of an acre at Causeway Bay, let to Messrs. GORDON & Co., En- gineers; and about 14 acres at Magazine Gap, which had been formerly occupied under Squatter's licence, let for gardening purposes.

All of these areas are under yearly leases.

The permits to occupy land for short periods comprise several small areas let for work-yards or for storing building materials.

The grant to a squatter consisted of a small area at Fuk Tsin Heung, Kow- loon, (Kowloon Inland Lot 1142).

The yearly lease converted into one for 75 years was for a small area adjoining Inland Lot 1549 on Conduit Road, which was practically inaccessible otherwise than from the lot mentioned.

3. Lease Plans.-Plans and particulars (in duplicate) of 109 lots were fur- nished to the Land Office in connection with the issue of leases..

4. Boundary Stones.--Boundary stones were fixed for 35 lots in Hongkong and 24 in Kowloon.

5. Sites for Booths at the Race-course.-A sum of $1,662.30 was realized by the letting of sites for the erection of booths and stands at Happy Valley during the Race Meeting.

6. Squatters' Licences.-The number of Squatters' licences on roll at the commencement of the year was 992, representing an annual rental of $2,507.30. During the

  year, 12 were written off, leaving 980 still on the roll, the fees for which amounted to $2,429.63.

7. Military Lands.-Sites were granted to the Military Authorities for two electric-light emplacements on the Praya wall in the Western district of the City. Negotiations were in progress throughout the year with regard to an exchange of lands involving large areas between the Colonial Government and the Military Authorities. A settlement in the matter had not been arrived at by the close of the year.

8. Naval Lands.-Kowloon Marine Lot No. 35 was acquired by the Naval Authorities and a sum of $43,700 paid into the Treasury in commutation of the Crown rent.

1076

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

9. Piers. In consequence of the numerous applications received for the right of erecting piers opposite the ends of public streets, in certain portions of the City, recourse was had to public auction for the disposal of such rights, with the result that a substantial sum ($53,520) was realized. With the exception of $1,020 paid for a pier on a short lease at Yaumati, the above amount was derived from 3 piers opposite the West end of Wing Lok Street, Queen Street and Sutherland Street, respectively, for all of which leases extending to the 31st December, 1949, will be issued. Rent is payable under the Piers Ordinance (No. 37 of 1899). Licences were issued for 10 temporary piers in Hongkong, 6 in Kowloon and 6 in the New Territory, the amount of fees payable for these being $1,659.48.

10. Granite Quarries.--A new system of letting the granite quarries was adopted. Hitherto, a monopoly of the right of quarrying granite has been let by tender or public auction for a term of one year and, though the quarries in Hong- kong and Kowloon were put up separately, it generally happened that all of them fell into the hands of one man. The quarries have now been divided up into small groups and let for periods of 5 years, Government reserving to itself the right to lease any number of new quarries which may be required. The annual income from this source is $25,525, exclusive of quarries in the New Territory.

There was a marked decrease, as compared with 1901, in the two first items, the new houses for which plans were submitted numbering only 500 as against 952. In the fourth item, there was an increase of 237.

12. Certificates.--Certificates for 937 new buildings were issued under section 53 of Ordinance 15 of 1889, an increase of 244 as compared with 1901.

13. Verandahs and Balconies.-Permission was granted for the erection of 117 verandahs and balconies.

14. Notices and Permits.-Notices relating to structures in a dangerous condi- tion were served in 144 cases, whilst 1,583 permits and 74 notices of a miscellaneous nature were issued.

15. Ordinances.-A Bill consolidating the laws in force relative to buildings and containing numerous amendments was read a first time on the 11th March, but was subsequently withdrawn in consequence of its being ascertained that it did not embody all the suggestions which the Sanitary Experts (Mr. O. CHADWICK and Professor SIMPSON) proposed to make with a view to improving the sanitary con- dition of the City.

Another Bill, entitled the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, in which all the laws in force relating to these matters were consolidated and amended, was read a first time on the 7th July, 1902. It had not, however, been passed by the close of the year. Its principal features were the abolition of cubicles not directly lighted by windows, the requirement of lanes and larger yard-spaces, and the abate- ment of overcrowding by requiring a greater floor-area and cubic space per head in the case of most of the existing houses.

16. General Remarks.--An unsatisfactory feature of the year was the large number of collapses of buildings which occurred, many of the buildings involved being new or nearly so. In several cases the collapses were attended with con- siderable loss of life. With a view to preventing such occurrences in future, numerous provisions have been inserted in the new Ordinance referred to above. They include a substantial increase in the thickness of walls and the building of certain portions in cement mortar, the insertion of iron tie-rods in unsupported ex- ternal walls of considerable length, the prohibition of persons practising as Archi- tects unless authorized by the Governor in Council and the imposition of increased responsibilities upon Architects.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

The Naval Yard Extension and Messrs. BUTTERFIELD & SWIRE'S Shipyard Works were in progress throughout the year, and building operations were going on over the entire area bounded by Ice House Street, Des Voeux Road, Pedder Street and Connaught Road. The South-eastern section of Princes Buildings was also begun. The erection of so many large buildings simultaneously taxes the re- sources of the Colony in the production of the materials and the supply of skilled labour required to carry them out.

The Pavilions at the Peak, which had been leased to the Peak Club since 1897, were restored to the purpose for which they were originally erected, namely, a summer resort for the Senior Officers of the Civil Service. Considerable alterations and extensions of the Government Offices were undertaken. All the Government Buildings, with slight exceptions, were maintained in a good state of repair.

In the New Territory, the principal work executed was the repair of the old Customs Station at Capsuimun. There were 7 new Police Stations occupied by the close of the year and, except at Sha Tin, all the Police stationed in the New Territory are now comfortably housed, either in new buildings or in old ones which have been adapted for the purpose.

18. Maintenance of Telegraphs.--A direct telephone line with metallic circuit was constructed between Government House and Mountain Lodge. Communica- tion was established between the Government Exchange at the Central Police

1078

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

Station and the Animal Depôts at Kennedy Town, and a telephone instrument was added at the Disinfecting Station. The line to Tai Po, which was originally constructed along the route of the old pathway over the hills, was diverted to follow the new road from Shatin Inlet onwards.

19. Maintenance of Public Cemetery.--The Cemetery was maintained in good order, with the exception of one or two places where landslips occurred in conse- quence of the heavy rainstorms. The damage caused by these was fortunately not of a very serious nature. Permits to the number of 92 were issued for the erection

or repair of monuments.

20. Maintenance of Praya Wall and Piers.-The sea-wall suffered damage in several places on the Kowloon side during the typhoon season. Repairs were executed to a number of the timber piers belonging to Government, and Blake Pier was cleaned and tarred.

21. Maintenance of Lighthouses.-Gap Rock and Waglan Lighthouses under- went repairs and were painted and done 'up. The fresh-water tank at Gap Rock was divided into two sections by constructing a wall across it, so as to enable it to be cleaned out without emptying the whole tank at once.

22. Dredging Foreshores.-32,600 cubic yards of material were excavated by the Government Dredger, of which 5,400 cubic yards, being suitable, were deposited in the Praya Reclamation, and the balance was deposited at sea. 2,600 yards were excavated by coolie labour from Bowrington Canal and disposed of by the con-

tractor.

The Dredger was hired by Messrs. PUNCHARD, LOWTHER & Co., for work on the Naval Yard Extension, from 15th October to the end of the year.

23. Miscellaneous Works.-The following are the principal items of expen- diture under this vote representing, in some cases, only a part of the cost of the work, in consequence of its execution extending into more than one year :-

24. Maintenance of Roads and Bridges in City.-The process of removing the blue stone metalling and replacing it with grey granite was continued and most of the principal roads were restored to good condition. A new steam-roller-the second obtained for road-maintenance work-arrived during the year and was kept well employed. Many of the roads suffered greatly from the heavy rainstorms, the effect of which was intensified by the rat-proof grids on the street gullies, which

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

became choked and prevented the water escaping into the storm-water drains. Por- tions of some of the roads in the higher levels were blocked or carried away by landslips caused by the rains.

25. Maintenance of Roads and Bridges outside City.-These roads also suffered from the heavy rainstorms, there being several landslips which caused considerable damage and inconvenience. Otherwise, they were maintained generally in good condition.

26. Maintenance of Roads and Bridges in Kowloon.-The use of granite macadam is being extended to the principal roads with beneficial results, but there still remains much of this to be done. The great amount of work being done in levelling some sites and reclaiming others, necessitating the conveyance of large quantities of earth along the roads, and the laying of the new water main and removal of the old one in Station Street North rendered it almost impossible to maintain some of the roads in a satisfactory condition. Station Street South was improved by cutting away part of the hill between Austin Road and the Gas Works, whilst the embankment, which carries Station Street North across the mud-flat North of Mongkoktsui, was raised.

27. Maintenance of Roads and Bridges in New Territory. The laying and removal of the water mains mentioned in the preceding paragraph and the transport of stone to the site of the new Kowloon Reservoir prevented the Taipo Road being kept in good order between the third and fifth milestones. The remainder of the road, so far as it had been completed, was maintained in a fair state of repair.

28. Maintenance of Sewers.-There is nothing of importance to record under this heading, except that the heavy rainstorms and the landslips which they pro- This was duced caused a great deal of extra work in clearing the nullahs, etc. especially the case in the lower part of Albany Nullah, where it crosses the Naval Yard, the point of discharge being much obstructed by past accumulations of detritus. With the diversion and extension of this portion of the nullah in con- nection with the Naval Yard Extension, this will in future be obviated.

29. Gas Lighting, City.-The total number of gas lamps in use at the end of the year was 887, an increase of 42 during the twelve months. This increase is principally accounted for by the lighting of private lanes and streets referred to in last year's report. The number given is exclusive of 15 lamps within the Military Cantonment, the lighting of which is borne in equal shares by the Government and the Military Authorities.

30. Electric Lighting, City.-No alteration has been made in the number of electric lamps, which remains at 75.

31. Gas Lighting, Kowloon.-The total number of lamps was increased from 168 at the end of 1901 to 186 at the end of 1902. This increase was due to exten- sions of the built-over areas, principally in or near Yaumati.

32. Maintenance of Public Recreation Grounds.-In consequence of the flood- ing of Happy Valley during heavy rainstorms, a pipe drain, 18 inches diameter, was laid from the ditch at the North end of the Race Course to the nullah skirting the new portion of the ground. Portions of the Queen's Recreation Ground were filled in and re-turfed.

33. Maintenance of Clock Tower.-There is nothing special to record under this heading.

34. Forming and Kerbing Streets.- A large amount of work was done under this heading, the following being some of the principal items:-

A large amount ($8,505) was expended upon making small extensions of sewers and drains and constructing connections from new buildings; work of this nature being exceptionally heavy on account of the great number of new buildings erected.

37. Maintenance of Water-works, City and Hill District. The year 1902 will be a memorable one on account of the severe drought experienced during the early part of it; the subsequent heavy rainfall condensed into a period of about three months; and the necessity of again resorting to intermittent supply in consequence of the early cessation of the rains, the rainfall of September being the lowest on record.

During the entire year a constant supply of water was maintained for 160 days only, the supply being intermittent for the remaining 205 days. The following were the periods of intermittent supply:-1st January to 24th May and 1st Novem- ber to 31st December.

An account of the earlier stages of the drought having been given in last year's report, it is only necessary to repeat here that the contents of the reservoirs had been reduced to 146 million gallons on the 1st January. In view of the fact that the shrinkage in the reservoirs from 11th November, 1901, when the intermittent. system was introduced, to the 1st January, 1902, was 95 million gallons, or at the rate of 13 million gallons per week, it became necessary to consider what further measures could be adopted, besides those already in force, in order to maintain a supply of water until the commencement of the rainy season. In order to econo- mize the supply remaining, the following steps were taken :--

(a.) On the 13th January, the hours of supply to the City were reduced

from 4 to 3 daily.

**

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

(b.) On the 22nd January, the practice of turning on water for cleansing and disinfecting purposes was discontinued, the Sanitary Board having been previously instructed to make other arrangements for obtaining a supply.

(c.) A few days later, all supplies to shipping and for building purposes

were disconnected.

Attention was next turned to the adoption of measures to supplement the supply from other sources, and, on the 12th February, a committee, consisting of the Harbour Master, the Registrar General and the Director of Public Works, was appointed by His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government with full powers to take whatever steps they thought necessary for the purpose.

Prior to this, an inspection had been made of several of the principal streams on the mainland within reasonable distance of the City, resulting in the selection of one near Tsiin Wan.

The question of resuming possession of the Lai Chi Kok stream, which had been leased to the Steam Water Boat Co., was considered, but was abandoned on account of the daily yield being somewhat inadequate, besides which its resumption. would have caused serious interference with the supply to the shipping. The set- tlement of the Company's claim for damages would also have been a troublesome

matter.

Though considerably further afield, being six miles distant from the City, the stream near Tsün Wan was free from these objections. It had a yield of about half a million gallons per day and was used only for driving a sandalwood-grinding mill, and, as samples tested by the Government Analyst showed the water to be suitable for potable purposes, arrangements were at once made to render it available for transport to the Praya where it could be distributed for the supply of the population of the low-level district.

By negotiation with the owner of the sandalwood mill, the use of his dam and channel was obtained, the latter being extended for a distance of over 300 yards to a point near the shore whence a bamboo pier, 400 feet long, was constructed to carry a large wooden shoot for discharging the water into lighters. It was found necessary to line the new channel, as the water flowing along it became very muddy on account of the washing away of the softer portions of ground through which it was cut, and this was done with 9" stoneware pipes.

Three large lighters, each capable of containing over 90,000 gallons, were hired and, after being thoroughly cleansed, were fitted up with timber bulkheads in order to adapt them for conveying water. number of lighters was increased to five. referred to and towed to the Praya.

Before the end of the drought, the These were filled from the shoot already

On the Praya, three tanks having a combined capacity of 100,000 gallons were constructed of brick and concrete. One was situated near Wing Wo Street, another at the West end of Wing Lok Street, and the third at Eastern Street, all three being connected by a line of wrought or cast iron pipes, 6 and 7 inches diameter, laid along the Praya wall. Barricades were erected at the tanks, with entrances and exits, to enable the stream of people to be regulated and thus avoid loss of time through the confusion which might otherwise have arisen.

At the central tank, a 6-inch centrifugal pump, mounted on a barge, and pro- vided with the necessary boiler and connections to the lighters and tank, was stationed for pumping the water, all the tanks being supplied simultaneously through the pipe-line already mentioned. About 20 large taps, each of which was capable of filling a 5-gallon bucket in a minute, were provided at each tank in the first in- stance, 5 more taps being added subsequently. A duplicate set of pumping machinery was fitted up and held in readiness in case of a break-down occurring to the one in use.

Military guards were stationed at the tanks to maintain order and ensure that all who came to obtain water should take their turn in their order of coming.

The arrangements were got into working order on the 10th March and, from that date onwards till the 17th May, a regular, daily supply was maintained from the tanks, varying from 247,000 gallons at the beginning to 432,000 gallons at the end of the period mentioned.

1081

1082

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

Simultaneously with the inauguration of this supply, the water in the mains was shut off from a portion of the City extending along the Harbour front and back to Queen's Road, bounded by the Central Market on the East and the Sailors' Home on the West and containing a population of about 47,000. As the daily supply from the tanks was increased, the cut-off area was extended back to Holly- wood Road and High Street until it ultimately included a population of about 63,0

,000.

Practically the whole of the water obtainable from the stream near Tsun Wan was being imported towards the termination of the drought, the total quantity derived from this source being over 23 million gallons, or about one-third of the contents of Pokfulam Reservoir. Taking it over the whole period, the average daily supply delivered per head of the population of the cut-off area was 5'8 gallons.

In addition to the above, arrangements were made with Messrs. BUTTERFIELD & SWIRE for obtaining a supply from their principal reservoir for the Eastern district of the City. A line of pipes connecting with the reservoir referred to was placed at the service of the Government by Messrs. JARDINE, MATHESON & Co. for 8 hours daily and a supplementary main, over a mile in length, was laid. The quantity that could be obtained from this source was originally stated to be 15 million gallons, but, in consequence of an error which had been made in calculating the contents of their reservoirs, Messrs. BUTTERFIELD & SWIRE subsequently dis- covered that they were not in a position to supply so much. The actual quantity obtained was a little over 14 million gallons.

With the curtailment of the area served from the City Waterworks, it became possible to reduce the hours of supply and these were limited to two hours daily on the 31st March and to one hour on the 28th April.

In consequence of the steady continuance of the drought up to the end of April, instructions were given by His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government to make arrangements for importing more water to the City at any cost. Numerous schemes for so doing were considered and several were initiated.

For the supply of the Eastern district, it was decided to convey water from a small stream at Tai Wan in Kowloon Bay, distant 5 miles from Blake Pier, in a similar manner to that adopted in the case of the Tsiin Wan stream.

A dam was built across the stream, whence the water was conducted in an open channel, 700 yards long, to a tank near the sea-shore. From this point, three lines of canvas hose, supported on trestles, were laid for a distance of 567 yards across the foreshore to where lighters could be filled at all states of the tide. A large tank, into which the water was to be pumped, was fitted up at Ship Street, numerous taps being provided for drawing it off into buckets. These works were completed, but were not brought into service on account of the rainy season setting in before they could be availed of.

In order to supply additional areas in the central and western low-level dis- tricts, beyond those already supplied from Tsün Wan, works were undertaken for bringing water from a stream at Tai Lam Chung, near Castle Peak Bay and distant 13 miles from Blake Pier. These works comprised the construction of a dam; 1,206 lineal feet of open channel; 2 miles of cast iron pipes, 12 inches in diameter; trestle bridges over ravines and a trestle pier at the sea shore. Brick tanks, each having a capacity of 34,000 gallons, to receive the water from this source, were constructed on the Praya, one opposite Pottinger Street and the other opposite French Street. All these works were about half finished when the rains set in.

For transporting the water, two lighters were lent by the Superintendent of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, and five others were hired from the Godown Company and Naval Authorities, all of them being fitted with bulkheads and otherwise adapted for the purpose. Some other works of a similar nature to those already described, but of less magnitude, were also undertaken and a scheme was considered for obtaining a supply of river-water from Moto Mun, distant about 60 miles from the Colony. It was proposed to transport the water in tank steamers to be chartered for the purpose, but apart from objections on the score of expense, which would have been very great, it was found that it would be impracticable to maintain a regular daily supply by its adoption and the scheme was therefore abandoned.

Towards the end of the drought, the streams rendered available by the City Water-works continued to yield about 300,000 gallons per day.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

The water in Tytam reservoir-Pokfulam and Wong-nei-chong being empty -reached its lowest level on the 10th May, when there remained in it 6,000,000 gallons. At the same rate of draw-off as prevailed during the preceding 10 days, this was sufficient to last for other 18 days, or practically until the end of May. Rain began to fall in appreciable quantity on the 8th May and, on the 13th, a fall of nearly 7 inches occurred, effectually terminating the severe drought which had extended over a period of practically nine months. By the 25th May, the condition of the reservoirs justified a return to the system of constant supply, and this was accordingly put in force after a period of intermittent supply extending over 195 days, or 6 months.

The total expenditure on the works undertaken to supplement the supply was $66,900.

As already mentioned, in consequence of the early cessation of the rains and the exceptionally dry weather during September, recourse was again had to inter- mittent supply on the 1st November. Tytam and Pokfulam reservoirs had ceased to overflow on the 1st September and Wong-nei-chong at an earlier date, the combined contents of all three reservoirs on the 1st November amounting to 354 million gallons. This had been reduced to 293 million gallons at the close of the year.

The total quantity of water supplied during the year, exclusive of what was imported or obtained from Messrs. BUTTERFIELD & SWIRE's reservoir, was 947,517,000 gallons filtered and 24,753,000 gallons unfiltered, making a grand total of 972,270,000 or 322 millions less than during 1901.

The average consumption of filtered water per day was 2,595,000 gallons, which, with an estimated population of 214,300, gives an average daily consumption of 12.11 gallons per head for all purposes. The daily consumption per head, during the period of constant supply, amounted to 17.6 gallons and during the latter period of intermittent supply to 10.5 gallons. In consequence of the exceptional conditions prevailing during the earlier period of intermittent supply, no accurate figures for it can be given, but, taking the entire population, the quantity supplied averaged 6.5 gallons, exclusive of unfiltered and imported supplies.

Full details of the consumption, contents of the reservoirs, &c., will be found in Appendices C., D. and E. The analyses made by the Government Analyst showed that the quality of the water throughout the year was excellent.

¿

The water pumped to the High Level District of the City amounted to 30,450,000 gallons over the whole year, equal to an average daily consumption of 83,424 gallons, whilst 17,443,000 gallons were pumped to the Hill District, giving an average daily consumption of 47,788 gallons.

The grand total pumped during the whole year amounted to 47,893,000 gallons.

Tabulated statements containing particulars of the quantity pumped to the Hill District and High Levels respectively, in successive years since 1892, will be found in Appendices F. and G.

The whole of the motors were maintained in a good state of repair. The steam pumping engine at Bonham Road was maintained in working order, though, in consequence of the great demand for its services, some difficulty was experienced in finding an opportunity to effect repairs when required.

The number of meters in use in the City at the end of the year was 406 and in the Hill District 149.

The quantity of water supplied by meter was:-

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

The reasons of the great decline in the first three items, as compared with 1901, have already been sufficiently explained. The fourth item, which shows a large increase over 1901, is largely dependent upon the condition of the sugar-refining industry.

During the year new services were constructed or old ones altered and im- proved in 447 instances and in addition 340 services were inspected and connected to the mains. The services of 1,425 houses were inspected, 667 of which were found to be old and inadequate for supplying the tenements to which they were laid, though not actually causing waste of water. All defective services were re- paired after the usual notices had been issued.

38. Maintenance of Waterworks, Kowloon.―Kowloon, in common with the City, suffered from the severe drought. Fortunately, the wells, which form the source of supply in connection with the old waterworks, continued to yield water throughout the dry season. The Cheung Sha Wan Intakes, at which im- provements had been made, were utilized to the fullest extent possible and assisted greatly in enabling a supply to be maintained.

The total consumption for the year amounted to 164,922,000 gallons or an average consumption of 452,000 gallons per day, which, with an estimated popul- ation of 56,500, gives 8 gallons per head per day for all purposes. Details are given in Appendix H.

The pumping engines were maintained in good repair throughout the year. During the year, 71 private services were constructed or repaired. The num- ber of meters in use was unaltered, namely 144.

39. Maintenance of Waterworks, Aberdeen and Shaukiwan.-The water supply at both these places was maintained in a generally satisfactory manner, the total consumption amounting to 5,932,000 and 7,325,000 gallons respectively. Details are given in Appendices J. and K.

40. Water-works, Miscellaneous.-The following is a statement of the prin- cipal items of expenditure under this heading, several of them being for works which were carried out primarily on account of the severe drought, but designed to be of lasting benefit in connection with water supply.

In some cases the amount given is only part of the cost of the work, as it had not reached completion by the end of the year, or had been begun in 1901.

Water-works Ordinance.-A new Ordinance prepared principally with the object of causing economy in the use of water by penalizing the waste or ex- travagant use of it, was read a first time on the 4th June and, after undergoing extensive amendments, passed on the 13th August. The principal provisions of the Ordinance as passed were the disconnection of all services to tenement houses whenever a supply of water was rendered available from public fountains in their vicinity and the metering of all services to premises other than tenement houses. Steps were taken to carry these provisions into effect and, as mentioned elsewhere, public fountains were extensively fitted up in certain districts of the City. In consequence of instructions received from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, however, the disconnection of the services to tenement houses was not proceeded with and the fixing of fountains was discontinued.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

New Regulations were prepared under the Ordinance, in which the price of filtered water was fixed at 50 cents per thousand gallons, as against 25 cents hitherto charged.

42. New Law Courts.-The foundations, including the basement for the heat- ing chamber, were in progress during the year and were nearly completed at its close. The total number of piles driven was 1,447. It was found necessary to make some alterations in the basement in order to accommodate the heating appa- ratus properly and these involved some delay in the work. Considerable delay was also caused by the discovery of unsatisfactory material in a portion of the founda- tions, necessitating its being taken up and replaced with good material. The work was proceeded with in a very dilatory manner during the latter part of the year. Tenders for the superstructure were received in December.

43. Governor's Peak Residence.-The buildings were completed in July and occupied by His Excellency the Governor on his return to the Colony in September. Sundry small alterations were subsequently made, which were practically completed by the end of the year.

The main building contains the following accommodation on the ground floor:-

Dining room, drawing room, billiard room, boudoir, Governor's office, office for Private Secretary and Aide-de-Camp and waiting room; and on the upper floor:-- 4 large bed-rooms, two of which have dressing-rooms attached, and three smaller bed-rooms, besides bath-rooms. The hall and principal staircase occupy a large amount of space on both floors, being lighted by means of a large skylight. Wide enclosed verandahs are carried round three sides of the building.

In a wing attached to the main building are the kitchen, larder, pantry, a man- servant's room and a drying-room on the ground floor and a school-room, drying- room and maid's room on the upper floor. An enclosed verandah is provided

round two sides.

A short distance from the main building and connected with it by a covered way, are the servants' quarters containing 3 boys' rooms, 2 amahs' rooms, a cooks' room and accommodation for 16 coolies, besides cook-houses, &c. Separate quar- ters are provided for the gardeners and there is also a shelter for chairs. Entrance gates and a small gate-lodge have been erected at the entrance to the grounds.

In the main building, all floors of verandahs and bath-rooms are constructed of iron beams and concrete and laid with encaustic tiles; the floors of the kitchen, pantry, &c. on the ground floor being similarly laid, but supported on the solid ground. All other floors are of teak-wood. The main staircase is constructed entirely of teak with carved screen at foot and massive main balusters.

The principal rooms on ground floor, the hall and staircase have panelled wooden dadoes and the kitchen, larder and all bathrooms have dadoes of white glazed tiles. All the ceilings and cornices are of wood, except in the case of the verandahs, &c. where they are formed by the underside of the concrete floors already mentioned. The ceilings of the principal rooms on the ground floor are suitably panelled.

The main roof is covered with double pan and roll tiling, whilst the roof of verandahs and of towers at angles of building are of cement concrete.

Hot and cold water are laid on to all bath-rooms and the lighting of the build- ing is by gas; electric light not being available at the Peak. A lightning conductor has been fixed on each of the four towers.

Storm-water is carried off in open channels, as far as practicable, and a system of drains is provided for waste water and connected with the Peak main drain.

The approach road and some of the principal pathways about the grounds have been concreted, whilst a number of the oid paths have been improved or new paths made round the adjacent hills.

The buildings were erected under the supervision of the Public Works Depart- ment from designs supplied by Messrs. PALMER & TURNER, Architects.

44. No. 7 Police Station.-This work was completed in September when the Police entered into occupation of the buildings. These occupy the site of the old Station, at the junction of Pokfulam and Queen's Roads, being arranged round the

1085

North, East and South sides of it, with a compound in the middle, whilst the West side is left open. They are all of two storeys in height, with a basement where the site, which varies considerably in level, admits of one.

On the North side, facing Queen's Road, are the charge room, separate mess rooms for European, Indian and Chinese Constables, a dormitory for 4 Chinese firemen, an Interpreter's room and 3 cells on the ground floor, and, on the upper floor, quarters for an Inspector (4 rooms and bath-room), a Sergeant's room, a dormitory for 4 European Constables, a bath-room and store-room. In a basement. which extends under a portion of the building and opens on to Queen's Road, there is a workshop and store and accommodation for a fire engine.

On the South side are two dormitories for Indian Constables (32 beds in all) and two for Chinese (also 32 beds in all). A basement for storage purposes ex- tends under part of the building.

On the East side are the various kitchens, cook-houses and bath-rooms, besides a drying-room and lamp-room. Latrines áre provided in a separate building.

The buildings are of brick, plastered over externally, and are roofed with double pan and roll tiling. A masonry and brick verandah, with concrete floor, projects from the North block over the footpath in Queen's Road, whilst the two remaining blocks have verandahs of iron and concrete, which serve as corridors. The floors of all rooms are of hardwood, iron beams being inserted where required to support the joists. The ceilings and cornices are of wood. The floors of bath- rooms, cook-houses, &c. are of cement concrete supported on iron beams. The compound is surfaced with concrete and is enclosed on the West side by a sub- stantial boundary wall.

45. Public Latrines and Urinals.-A latrine at the junction of Kennedy and Market Streets, Yaumati, containing 50 seats, begun in 1901, was completed. Another, containing 46 seats, situated near Gillies Avenue, Hung Hom, was begun and completed during the year; whilst a third, containing 38 seats, close to No. 3 Police Station, Queen's Road East, was begun. Urinal accommodation was provided in all of these, besides a room for an attendant. An iron latrine at Yaumati, which had been superseded by one of the more permanent structures mentioned above, was removed and re-erected North of Soy Street, Mongkoktsui. Four urinals of masonry and concrete, lined with glazed bricks, were begun in the early part of the year, but only one reached completion before its close, the principal cause of the delay being the failure of a local company to supply the glazed bricks. All the urinals referred to are situated in the City--one in Ice House Street; one in Queen's Road, under the Parade Ground; and the remaining two on the Praya, near the Canton and Macao Steam-boat Company's pier and the West end of Wing Lok Street, respectively. The contractor for the one under the Parade Ground absconded when the work was about half done and great difficulty was experienced in making arrangements for its completion.

46. Additional Accommodation at the Sheep and Surine Depôt.-The addition of an upper floor to one of the sheds on the middle terrace at Kennedy Town, was completed at the close of the year. The floor is constructed entirely of cement concrete, strengthened with iron rods and supported on steel joists which are in turn carried on rows of cast iron columns. The old roof and cast iron columns support- ing it, which were removed to make way for the new floor, were re-crected. Wrought iron fences divide the floor into pens and gangways and cement concrete troughs extend throughout the entire length of the building at the various rows of pens. A sloping gangway, constructed wholly of iron and cement concrete gives access to the new floor. Large openings protected with iron bars, are provided round the shed for ventilation.

47. Completion of Gaol Officers Quarters.-The whole of these buildings, which are situated at the junction of Arbuthnot Road and Wyndham Street, were at length completed and occupied by the Gaol staff during the early part of the year. There are three separate main blocks of buildings, all of which are 3 storeys in height, with coolie quarters either wholly or partly detached.

No. 1 Block contains six sets of married quarters-3 sets of 4 rooms and 3 sets of 3 rooms each-with separate kitchen, bath-room and servants' accommoda- tion. No. 2 Block is for Indian Warders and contains two dormitories (28 beds

each), two large mess-rooms, a recreation room and 6 bath-rooms, whilst 2 cook- houses, 2 cook's rooms and latrine accommodation are provided in a separate build- ing. No. 3 Block is for European Warders and contains two dormitories (20) beds each), a large mess and recreation room, a common room, 4 bath-rooms, 2 water-closets and 2 lavatories. In a small detached building are the kitchen and coolie quarters.

The buildings are all of Canton red brick, plastered externally, and roofed with double pan and roll tiling. Balconies are provided on all the main blocks, being constructed of cement concrete, with iron beams, pillars and railings, and supported on massive stone corbels. The floors of all rooms are of hardwood, the joists being supported on iron beams where required. The ceilings and cornices are of wood. The staircases are of stone with iron balusters and rails. All bath-room floors are of cement concrete. The compounds are surfaced with concrete and iron railings are provided for protection round the various retaining walls which form the site into terraces.

48. Tai Po Road.--The whole of the work has been completed, with the ex- ception of the surfacing of the road and the trimming of some banks in the last 5 miles and fixing railings to bridges, and executing some cutting in the last mile. The road is open to ricksha traffic throughout its entire length of 18 miles from Tsim Sha Tsui Point to Tai Po. Two miles of it consist of roads in the Old Territory, which were made before the New Territory was taken over, thus making the length of roadway constructed under the vote "Tai Po Road" 16 miles.

Commencing from Tsim Sha Tsui Point, in order to avoid confusion in re- ferring to the mileage of the road, the first 3 miles are practically level. After this, the road begins to ascend the Kowloon Range of hills running along the Southern slopes at a gradient generally of 1 in 20 up to a gap at a height of 441 feet, which is reached at about 4 miles. It then traverses the Northern slopes of the range at comparatively easy gradients until it reaches the gap overlooking the Sha Tin Valley. The highest point of the road is 517 feet above Ordnance Datum, the level of the gap last mentioned being 442 feet, and its distance 64 miles from the starting-point.

į

Following a downward gradient of 1 in 40, the flat land of the Sha Tin Valley is reached at 83 miles and the road then runs level along the North side of Tide Cove or Sha Tin Inlet to about 113 miles. Leaving Tide Cove, another ascent commences over a gap 370 feet high, which is passed at 13 miles, and the road then falls by easy gradients to the shore of Tolo Harbour which is reached opposite the village of Wong Nai Au, at 17 miles. Crossing a large stream by a bridge of 120 feet in length it touches a small island, where the landing pier for Tai Po is situated and, after traversing an embankment, 2,000 feet in length, passes through a cutting and terminates near Tai Po village, where it joins an old pathway.

The width of the road is 1-4 feet.

There are in all 17 bridges, 13 of one span, 2 of two spans, 1 of three spans and 1 of 4 spans. The spans vary from 10 to 30 feet in length. All the bridges have masonry abutments and piers and are constructed of cement supported on steel joists. Iron railings are provided.

49. Western Market. The foundations were nearly completed up to ground level. They consist of hardwood piles of an average length of 29' 10", numbering in all 376, with longitudinal and cross bearers on top. Around and above the bearers is cement concrete. All the trenches for foundations, being in made ground, had to be closely timbered and much trouble was experienced with water which came in very freely, particularly at the South-West corner of the site. portion of the old Praya wall had to be taken up in connection with the work.

A

50. Harbour Office.-The foundations were completed before the close of the year. They are of similar construction, to those just described for the Western Market, the number of piles being in this case 735, of an average length of 24'. 10".

Less trouble was experienced with water than in the case of the Western Market foundations. Some alterations were made in the plan of the building after the commencement of the work, necessitating alterations in the trenches which had been dug and all of which were closely timbered.

To enable the cultivated areas in New Kowloon and several areas near Sha Tan-kok to be re-mapped on a larger scale--the scale on which the original survey was plotted having been found too small in these cases-fresh traverses had to be made, the cultivated lands South of the old boundary being also included.

One Indian Sub-Surveyor, with 6 Indian and 6 Chinese chain-men, was engaged upon the work, which was connected at four points with the trigonometri- cal survey, upon which the topographical survey is based.

The areas cadastrally surveyed during the year amounted to 11,715.81 acres, including 219,292 fields. These figures do not compare favourably with those of the preceding year, when over 11,000 acres were dealt with by a considerably less staff, the reason being that the work during 1902 was confined to much more diffi - cult ground, which consisted of the most hilly parts of the whole territory.

The following were the areas cadastrally surveyed :-

The staff engaged upon this portion of the work consisted up till June of two Inspectors, 42 Surveyors, 88 Indian Chain-men and about 60 Chinese coolies. In July, 1 Inspector, 12 Surveyors and 43 Indian Chain-men were sent back to India and, after about a month's cessation, field operations were resumed with 1 Insper- tor, 27 Surveyors, 37 Indian Chain-men and about 55 Chinese coolies.

The demarcation of the areas surveyed during 1900 was completed by the 10 Surveyors mentioned in last year's Report, who are included in the Cadastral staff enumerated above. They dealt with 13,446.84 acres, which included 97,960 fields, constituting 32,824 holdings.

One Surveyor, with one Indian coolie, was detailed throughout the whole year for special work in connection with the Land Court.

year,

Five office assistants were obtained from India in the early part of the one having been previously appointed locally. The number of maps dealt with during the year was 296, the boundaries being compared and the holdings and fields inked in and numbered as the sheets were received from the Surveyors.

Two Chinese tracers were engaged in November to assist in producing copies of the maps for the use of the Land Court.

Sickness was somewhat prevalent among the staff, one Surveyor and two Indian coolies dying during the course of the year, and six Indian coolies being in- valided back to India. Two Surveyors were discharged on account of incompetence.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

52. Byewash Reservoir, Tytam.-The formation of the site of this reservoir entails the construction of a very considerable length of dam, about 480 feet in all. The foundations for the dam turned out to be much less favourable than was ex- pected, the rock being in a very decomposed state in many parts, with open joints between the more solid masses, whilst in other places, where the rock was good, fissures occurred through which water flowed freely. It was consequently found necessary to carry the foundations to a considerably greater depth than was antici- pated and to adopt measures for filling in the joints and fissures. To effect this, holes 2 inches diameter and from 4 to 6 feet deep, were drilled in the foundations, in which wrought iron pipes were inserted to the extent of about a foot and carefully wedged and filled in round about. Liquid cement grout was then poured into the pipes, which were from 11 to 30 feet long, in order to afford pressure for forcing the cement into the fissures. The process proved satisfactory in overcoming much of the leakage through the joints.

The excavation of the foundations over a length of about 280 feet was practi- cally completed and a portion of them was filled in with cement concrete by the end of the year.

The new bungalow in connection with the reservoirs was nearly completed.

53. City and Hill District Waterworks.

(i.) Main connecting High Level Service Reservoirs.-The 6-inch wrought iron main referred to in last year's report was completed. It was found necessary to re-arrange portions of the old mains at the foot of the Peak Road with which connections were made to enable the new motor to be utilized for pumping into the high-level service- reservoirs on the Peak Road and in the upper part of Glenealy.

A

ii.) Service Reservoir on Mount Gough. The excavation to form the

site of the reservoir was completed at the close of the year. considerable amount of rock was met with in the course of the work.

(iii.) Main to Service Reservoir on Mount Gough. The laying of the 3- inch wrought iron main from the Bowen Road Motor to the Service Reservoir was nearly completed.

54. Kowloon Waterworks. The assent of the Secretary of State to the large scheme referred to in last year's Report was received in January and Messrs. DENISON, RAM & GIBBS were at once instructed to proceed with the work.

(i.) Storage Reservoir.-A contract for the construction of the storage reservoir, including a caretaker's bungalow, was let to Mr. TSANG KENG in May. Fair progress had been made with the excavation of the foundations for the main dam by the end of the year as well as with the cutting of a trench of great depth into the hillsides. against which the dam abuts. The rock in the bottom of the dam is of a very jointy nature intersected with veins of decomposed stuff which can be easily dug out with a pick.

Some paths in connection with the work had been cut, a face-wall at top-water mark and extending some distance below it had been built and the construction of the bungalow was in progress.

(ii) Main to Storage Reservoir.-A contract for laying about 34 miles of 12-inch cast iron main, with connections to the old intakes above Cheung Sha Wan; for constructing several new intakes; and for taking up the temporary 4-inch main which was laid in 1900 to the old intakes, was let to Mr. WONG A CHI in April. The laying of the new main was sufficiently advanced by the be- ginning of October to admit of its being utilized in place of the 4-inch main for conveying the water from the old intakes to sup- ply Mongkoktsui and Yaumati. By the end of the year, three miles of it had been laid and two new intakes completed, whilst several others were well advanced. A watchman's bungalow at the intakes was about completed and the whole of the old main had been taken up, the pipes being cleaned and returned to the Government Store.

(iii.) Service Reservoir near Kowloon Tong.-Tenders for the construc- tion of a large service reservoir at Kowloon Tong, capable of con- taining two million gallons, were called for in December. (iv.) Defining Boundary of Drainage Area. Large concrete pillars have been established to define the boundary of the drainage area of the reservoir in course of construction and of the intakes above Cheung Sha Wan.

55. Praya East Reclamation.- Negotiations were in progress throughout the year with the Naval and Military Authorities regarding the boundary between their reclamation and the projected scheme and with the owners of several Inland Lots, the conversion of which into Marine Lots had not hitherto been effected. The negotiations had not been concluded at the close of the year.

56. Police Station, Sheung Shui.-The buildings were completed and occupied by the Police in May, making the sixth new permanent Station built in the New Territory. The main building contains a charge-room, two cells, two rooms cap- able of accommodating 8 and 4 Indian Constables, respectively, two rooms each cap- able of accommodating 4 Chinese Constables, two rooms for European Constables, two for a European Sergeant, and one for the Inspecting Officer, besides 3 bath- rooms, store and lamp-room. In a separate wing, which is connected with the main building by a covered way, are the kitchens, drying-room, store and Indians' bath- room, besides an Interpreter's room and some accommodation for servants. Suitable latrine accommodation is provided and a yard measuring about 88 feet by 22 feet has been enclosed by a boundary wall.

The buildings are of the same description as those for No. 7 Police Station, already described, the main building being 2 storeys high.

57. Police Station, Tai (.-This is situated near the South-western extremity of Lantao Island and is the seventh permanent Station erected in the New Territory. It was completed and occupied by the Police in November.

The main building contains the following accommodation:--Charge-room, two cells, separate dormitories for 8 Indian and 4 Chinese Constables and 4 Chinese boatmen, one room for a European Constable, two for a European Sergeant and one for the Inspecting Officer, besides 3 bath-rooms and a store. A separate wing, which is connected with the main building by a covered way, contains the kitchens, drying-room, store and Indians' bath-room, besides an Interpreter's room and some accommodation for servants. Latrines are also provided. The main building is 2 storeys high.

58. Market at Kowloon Point.-A contract for levelling the site, which was entered into about the end of 1901, was completed in October. The work consisted of removing a mass of earth and rock and constructing a retaining wall, 35 feet in height, along the South side of the site, which is situated at the junction of Chater and Macdonnell Roads.

59. New Shed at the City Disinfecting Station.-A contract for the erection of a two-floor shed and out-offices on an unoccupied portion of the site of the Dis- infecting Station was let early in the year, the work being completed and handed over to the Sanitary Board in November. The ground floor is used as a store and the upper floor as coolie quarters, thus enabling the men employed at the Station to be housed on the premises. Facilities for bathing are provided, a supply of hot water being rendered available.

60. Resumption of Property. The proposal to resume property in order to provide married quarters for the Indian Police was not carried out, but a sum of $14,000 was expended out of the Vote for that purpose in resuming certain areas near the lower end of Ladder Street to enable Lower Lascar Row to be extended Eastwards. The resumptions were made on the advice of the Sanitary Experts and had not all been completed at the close of the year.

61. Covering in Yard of Gaol.-This work consisted of constructing a roof over the upper yard on the West side of the gaol. The roof is supported on wrought iron columns and is covered with double pan and roll tiling. It was completed by the end of the year.

62. Altering Gaol Windows in order to prevent cases of suicide among the prisoners. This work involved considerable alterations in the windows of the cells, numbering 413. It was satisfactorily completed by the end of the year.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

63. Extension of Cattle Inspector's Quarters.-A contract was let in November for adding a small wing containing two floors, with one room on each floor, to the original building, which consisted of a small bungalow. As the occupants have suffered much from malarial fever, it was considered advisable to provide a room on an upper floor. The verandah of the bungalow was enclosed with mosquito- proof netting. Work in connection with the extension was begun before the close of the year.

54. Widening Conduit Road.In response to a petition signed by the owners of lots bordering on the road, the work of widening it from 12 feet to 16 feet was undertaken early in the year and had nearly been completed by its close. The completion of the work was greatly delayed by landslips which occurred near the Eastern end of the road and were due to the severe rainstorms, especially that of the 2nd August, when some very large masses of rock came down. The making good of these involved some alterations and the construction of considerable retain- ing walls. The work of constructing a portion of the road near its Western extre- mity, referred to in last year's report, was taken over from the owner of Inland Lot 703, who failed to complete it within the time agreed upon.

65. Fence round Plague Hospital.---In consequence of a portion of the iron- work, which was obtained from England, being lost in transit, some delay occurred in carrying out this work, but it was nearly completed by the end of the year. The fence is of iron, 5 feet 6 inches in height, iron entrance gates being provided.

66. Electric-Light Installation at Civil Hospital.--This work was carried out by the Hongkong Electric Company, Limited, and was completed in October. The following is a statement of the number and disposition of the lights :-

Twenty-three fans were also provided; 18 of which are in the Upper and Lower Hospitals, 2 in the Maternity Hospital, and 3 in the Residence and Quarters.

67. Resuming Land at Starling Inlet. The necessary steps in the way of marking out by means of boundary stones the boundaries of the land to be resumed were taken, 37 stones being fixed.

68. Park in Western District of City.-A parapet wall was built in Lower Richmond Road and some iron railings were erected to fence off a slope Westwards of the area on which the Diocesan School boys are permitted to play cricket. Some hollows in the ground were also filled in preparatory to turfing the slope to the North of Lower Richmond Road.

69. Storm-Water Nullah, Mongkoktsui.-This work was completed in Decem- ber. It consisted of the construction of a nullah 9 feet wide by 8 feet deep and 830 feet in length, immediately South of Kowloon Inland Lot 761. The outer end of the nullah suffered some damage during the typhoon season and it was found necessary to drive some piles in order to protect it.

70. Quarantine Station for Dogs.--The building, which adjoins the Kowloon Cattle Depôt, was completed and handed over to the Sanitary Board in March. It contains accommodation for 10 dogs and a small exercising yard.

71. Training and Diverting Nullahs near Lower Tramway Terminus.-The work described in last year's Report was completed in March. The new pathway, along the Western boundary of War Department land, affords a much shorter route than formerly existed to many of the houses on Kennedy and Macdonnell Roads and is much used. It is 12 feet in width and is surfaced with concrete.

72. Public Bath-house at Cross Street, Wanchai.-A contract for this work was let in January. Owing to the delays which occurred in connection with the supply of the glazed bricks required, the work had not been fully completed at the

1091

1092

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

close of the year. The structure is of brick, plastered externally, the walls being lined internally for a height of 5 feet with glazed bricks. It contains 40 compart- ments, which are divided off by small partitions of glazed brick, and each compart- ment contains a small-sized Shanghai tub. The floor is laid with concrete and rendered over with cement, wooden gratings being provided alongside the baths. A boiler is fitted up for the supply of hot water and the necessary tanks and hot and cold water services have been provided. A small latrine and caretaker's quarters adjoin the bath-house.

73. Cattle Crematorium and Refuse Destructor.-The installation, which is in proximity to the Animal Depôts at Kennedy Town, consists of one cell for each pur- pose, the destructor being intended for dealing with rubbish removed from houses where Plague cases have occurred. The cells are connected with a common chimney-shaft. The work was not fully completed at the end of the year, but nearly so.

74. Additions and Alterations to Government Offices.-In order to afford additional accommodation for the Colonial Secretary's and Public Works Depart- ments, an extension at the South end of the building was undertaken. The exten- sion contains two offices on the ground floor for the Public Works Department and one large fire-proof room on the upper floor for the Colonial Secretary's Records. All the rooms have boarded floors, the flooring of the fire-proof room being laid on top of cement concrete arching, supported on steel joists. This effectually discon- nects it from the rooms on the ground floor and the roof is also composed of cement concrete arching, similarly supported and covered with a layer of asphalte to render it watertight. The steel joists are encased in the concrete in both cases and a fire-proof door of special construction is provided.

The principal alterations consisted of cutting out the arches between the pillars of the verandah on the West side of the building and reducing the size of the pillars themselves in order to improve the lighting of the ground floor rooms.

The whole of the work was well advanced at the end of the year.

75. District Watchmen's Quarters.-The sum of $1,000 was subscribed by Government towards the construction of this building, which was erected on a site granted by Government within the Taipingshan Resumed Area. The work was carried out by Messrs. PALMER & TURNER, Architects, on behalf of the District Watchmen's Committee, the balance of the cost being defrayed from funds at their disposal.

76. Erection of a Derrick on new site, Gap Rock.-This work consists of the formation of a new and alternative landing-place on Gap Rock, the transfer to it of the derrick from the old landing place and the provision of a new derrick, at the latter. The carrying out of the work, which is nearing completion, was attended with much difficulty, which was greatly increased by the stormy weather experi- enced during the Summer months.

77. Repairs and Alterations to Government Pavilions. When the buildings were vacated by the Peak Club, it was found necessary to carry out extensive alterations and repairs in order to render them suitable for occupation by the Senior Government Officers as formerly. These were completed in time to enable the buildings to be occupied for a portion of the hot season.

78. City Waterworks Extension,-Tytam Tuk Scheme.-In accordance with the advice of Mr. O. CHADWICK, C.M.G., surveys and preliminary works were undertaken with a view to constructing a storage reservoir at Tytam Tuk, from A site in the which the water could be pumped up to the Tytam Tunnel. upper part of the estuary was selected, where it appeared possible that a dam A number of borings with a large impounding capacity could be constructed. were made and three trial pits were undertaken in order to obtain reliable information regarding the nature of the foundation to be met with. The trial pits or wells are constructed of brick in cement built on top of a cast iron curb ring and are of a diameter of 5' 8" internally. The depths to which they had been sunk at the close of the year were 32′ 5′′, 30′ 0′′ and 8' 0", respectively, below Ordnance Datum; no rock had, however, been met with at these depths. Two barges, equipped with boilers, steam winches, derricks, &c., were in use, the wells being kept dry by means of a pulsometer pump or by baling, according to circum- stances. Digging was carried on by hand or by a grab bucket operated by the steam winches, as found most suitable. The men employed on the work suffered a good deal from malarial fever of a severe type.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

A contour survey, extending from the shores of the estuary up to 200 feet above Ordnance Datum, was about completed and surveys in connection with the determination of the drainage area and diversions of roads, along which the pump- ing main would be carried, were in progress.

79. City Waterworks-Provision of Public Fountains.-Under the new Water- works Ordinance, (No. 29 of 1903), passed in August, the occupiers of tenement houses were to be supplied with water by means of public fountains, the services to such houses, unless in exceptional cases, being disconnected from the mains. Accordingly, the fixing of fountains was proceeded with and 233 in all were erected in the Western district of the City. Instructions were, however, received from the Secretary of State to suspend action under the Ordinance, so far as regarded the provisions mentioned above, and the fixing of fountains was discontinued.

80. Rainstorm and Typhoon Damages.-Though the rainfall of the year was not excessive-97.50 inches-it was nearly all condensed into 3 months, 80.82 inches falling from the 8th May to the 13th August inclusive. Following upon a period of excessive drought, this rainfall wrought much damage in the way of land- slips and caused great injury to roads, whilst the somewhat numerous typhoons were-responsible for serious damage to buildings, especially those of a temporary or less substantial character.

The estimated cost of making good the damage done amounted to about $36,800, of which nearly $26,000 was expended up to the end of the year. The principal items of expenditure were the following:-

Roads in the City,

Roads outside City,...

Landslips on roads and damage to nullahs, Landslips in Public Cemetery,

Buildings, principally matsheds,

Telephone lines,.....

Praya wall and piers,

$12,399

3,782

4,945

793

2,389

471

196

As already stated, these sums represent only part of the cost of repairing the damage in some cases.

81. Coronation Celebrations.-Arrangements were made for illuminating a number of the principal Public Buildings, including the Queen's Statue, on the occasion of the Coronation of Their Majesties the King and Queen. All prepara- tions had been practically completed for the night of the 27th June when the arrangements were cancelled in consequence of His Majesty's illness. The illumina- tions subsequently took place on the night of the 9th August, but were unfortu- nately marred by a heavy downpour of rain, which occurred at an early stage of the proceedings.

The following are some particulars of the Buildings treated :-- ·

Queen's Statue-730 incandescent electric lamps outlining the canopy,

                                  &c. Government House--530 incandescent electric lamps forming the devices

of a Crown, Prince of Wales' feathers and the letters E. R. Clock Tower--4,000 small, coloured glass lamps, besides 56 flare lamps. In addition to the above, about 6,000 lanterns were used in illuminating the Post Office, Supreme Court and other buildings.

The only other events in connection with the Coronation celebrations, which require to be recorded here, were the unveiling of the Duke of CONNAUGHT'S Statue (presented to the Colony by the Honourable Sir CATCHICK PAUL CHATER, C.M.G.) on the 5th July, and the turning of the first sod of the King's Park in Kowloon on the 6th August, both of which ceremonies were performed by H. E. Major-General Sir WM. JULIUS GASCOIGNE, K.C.M.G., Officer Administering the Government. On the occasion of the latter, a tree was planted near Austin Road by Lady GASCOIGNE. The scheme for the formation of the Park involves the removal of the Rifle Ranges to a new site and the settlement of the boundaries of land bordering on the Park required by the Military Authorities for the erection of Barracks. These matters were still under negotiation at the end of the year.

82. Perch on Rock near Lyemun.-

Railing in Openings in Sheds at Animal Depôts.-The expenditure incurred under these headings was on account of work done, but not paid for, during 1901.

1093

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

83. Site for New Post Office, Treasury, &c.-The area of the Reclamation pertaining to Marine Lots Nos. 99 and 100, bounded by Connaught Road, Pedder Street and Des Voeux Road on the North, East and South sides, respectively, was acquired by Government for the site of the New Post Office. It is also intended to provide accommodation on the site, by erecting a three-storied building, for the Treasury and other departments. Competitive designs for the building were called for from Architects in the Colony and in Shanghai and Singapore. The area of the site is 25,414 square feet; the amount paid for it being $508,280, or at the rate of $20 per square foot.

84. Plague Account.-A sum of $16,231 was expended under this heading, principally for the erection of various matsheds for housing the Sanitary Staff, &c., ($4,765); the construction of a pier and pathway to the Plague Cemetery at Cheung Sha Wan ($2,944); and fixing wire rat-proof nettings over the gully gratings ($1,932).

85. Boundary Pillars, New Territory.-Three granite obelisks, bearing suitable inscriptions, were fixed-one near the shore of Mirs Bay and the others on the North and South sides of Lantao Island, respectively to define where the East and West boundary lines of the New Territory intersect the land. The positions of the obelisks were determined by H. M. S. "Bramble."

""

86. Alterations of Roads.-As the result of negotiations with Messrs. BUTTER- FIELD & SWIRE, it was arranged that the diverted portion of the Shaukiwan Road being constructed by them past their shipyard should be widened from 30 feet to 75 feet. From the configuration of the ground, it would have been almost imprac- ticable to have effected any widening of the road after the construction and laying out of their shipyard had been completed.

A proposal was submitted to the Kowloon Wharf and Godown Company, for carrying out certain alterations and exchanges to enable the public traffic to be diverted from the Praya at Kowloon, which is so greatly obstructed by their tram- way lines and trucks and the conduct of their business generally. The Company submitted an alternative proposal, which the Government expressed itself prepared to accept on certain terms. The terms, however, were not acceptable to the Com- pany and, as a compromise agreeable to both parties could not be arranged, the matter dropped.

87. Surfacing Private Streets and Lanes.-A large amount of work was exe- cuted under this heading, the expenditure amounting to $32,531.69. The cost of the work was charged to the various owners whose property is affected by it in the case of each street or lane.

88. Jubilee Road.-The first half of this road, from Kennedy Town to its point of intersection with the path to Sassoon's Villa (Farm Lot 40), was completed in the early part of the year and work on the remaining portion to Aberdeen was well advanced by its close.

89. Jubilee Hospital. The buildings were roofed in and otherwise in an advanced state by the end of the year.

90. Harlech Road and Road between Wanchai and Wongneichong Gaps.- Work on these roads was at a standstill during the year. As mentioned in last year's report, both of them are being constructed by the Military Authorities.

91. Electric Tramway.-An Ordinance authorizing the construction of an electric tramway from Kennedy Town to Shaukiwan, with a branch line to Happy Valley, was passed in April. Up to the end of the year, the work of laying the tramway had not been begun.

PRAYA RECLAMATION WORKS.

92. Expenditure. The expenditure for the year was $110,708, as compared with $91,772 in 1901, and $150,650 in 1900.

93. Area rendered available for Building.-The total building area to be pro- vided by the Reclamation is 33 acres. An area of 27 acres has been made available, and the whole of it, except about one acre, has been taken over by the several parties entitled to it.

94. Section No. 1 West.-The Concrete Block Staff, after levelling the rubble foundations and laying the concrete bed, on the line of the sea wall, set 680 lineal feet of two-course block work, containing 3,000 tons of concrete.

This completed the blocksetting on the Praya Reclamation.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 24TH JULY, 1903.

The superstructure of the sea wall (740 lineal feet) is being built by Mr. CHAN A TONG and the reclaimed area is being filled in with dredgings from the foreshores, and with spoil from building operations in the neighbourhood. At the end of the year the work stood at an average of about 2′ 6′′ under the finished level.

95. Section No. 6 West.-The whole of the works (except Water and Sew- erage Works) required to complete this section are being carried out by Mr. TSANG KENG. Work equivalent to 29 per cent. of the value of his contract was execut- ed during the year, leaving 11 per cent. to be done. The principal works executed during the year were the erection of the entire superstructure of the sea wall (1,200 lineal feet), and the depositing of 56,000 cubic yards of earth filling. At the end of the year there still remained to be done 10,000 cubic yards of earth filling, and the whole of the forming and surfacing of the streets.

96. Reconstruction of Government Piers.-The Diving Staff levelled the rubble foundations, laid the concrete bed, and set 424 tons of concrete blocks, to form the base for a Boat-slip and Landing for the Harbour Master, opposite the New Har- bour Office.

97. Staff and Plant.-Mr. I. A. REMEDIOS, Clerk and Storekeeper, had three

months' leave on account of ill-health.

The Diving Staff was considerably reduced during the latter half of the year, on account of the work nearing completion.

""

The "Praya was docked twice for cleaning, and had very extensive repairs

done to the boiler.

The "Praya" and one Block Barge performed useful work in connection with the importation of water for domestic purposes, during the latter part of the long drought the "Praya" towing the water-boats, and the Block Barge serving as a pumping station.

One Block Barge was continuously employed during the second half of the year on the trial works for the proposed Storage Reservoir at Tytam Tuk and the "Praya" was also employed from time to time on these works.

The two Hopper Barges, which were formerly used for conveying earth for filling in the reclamation, were sold to Messrs. PUNCHARD, Lowther & Co.

Mr. J. F. BorLTON, Executive Engineer, was appointed Acting Assistant Director of Public Works on the 4th July.

Mr. A. H. HOLLINGSWORTH, Assistant Engineer, was promoted to be an Ex- ecutive Engineer in succession to Mr. J. R. CROOK, who left during 1900 to take up an appointment in Gibraltar.

99. Public Works Commission.-The Commission, after holding 10 meetings in all and examining a number of the leading Architects and Engineers in private practice in the Colony, as well as all the Senior Officers and Overseers of the De- partment, submitted its report on the 29th March. The following additions to the Staff were recommended :--

2 Executive Engineers.

1 Assistant Engineer.

5 Overseers, 2 of whom were for the supervision of work

under the Buildings Ordinance.

1 Clerk to supervise Water-works accounts.

The only year were the appointment of one of the overseers for the supervision of the Government system of telephones and of the two oversees for Buildings Ordinance work. The latter, however, had not arrived in the Colony.

were the app ecommendations carried into practical effect by the close of the

100. Visit of the Sanitary Experts.-Mr. OSBERT CHADWICK, C.M.G., who was more immediately concerned with the operations of the Department than his colleague, Professor SIMPSON, arrived in the Colony on the 28th February, and left again on the 14th May. During his visit, he went thoroughly into the questi- on of the Water Supply, both of Hongkong and Kowloon, making inspections of all the existing works and of those in progress and examining into possible future sources of supply. He also dealt with the Sewerage and Drainage Systems, making numerous inspections of the existing works. The results of his investiga- tions are contained in the following reports:-

The Sanitation of Hongkong, 10th April, 1902.

The Water Supply of Hongkong, mainly with regard to the full development of the supply from the Tytam Tuk Valley, 18th April, 1902.

The Sewerage and Drainage of Hongkong, 13th May, 1902.

Mr. CHADWICK also prepared, in collaboration with Professor SIMPSON, a report on the Question of the Housing of the Population of Hongkong; assisted in the preparation of a new Buildings Ordinance; and drew up a memorandum containing suggestions as to the carrying out of the Kowloon Water-works Scheme.

Mr. HOLLINGSWORTH, Executive Engineer, and Mr. XAVIER, Assistant Engineer, were detailed to supply Mr. CHADWICK with the information he required. The ser- vices of the clerical and drawing office staff were also largely called upon in con- nection with the copying of reports and the preparation of the numerous illustra- tions in the report on the Housing of the Population.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to prevent intrusion by persons other than the servants of the occupier of premises into the portion of such premises used as servants' quarters.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as The Servants' Quart- ers Ordinance, 1903.

2. "Occupier" means any person in actual occupation of any premises.

3. It shall be unlawful for any person other than a servant of the occupier of any premises to be in or remain in or in any way to make use of any portion of such premises as is provided by such occupier for the use of his servants except with the permission of such occupier...

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

Objects and Reasons.

To check the growth of the habit at present largely in- dulged in by servants of introducing, into the quarters provided for them by their masters, outside coolies and others who in most cases pass the night there. The result is that these servants' quarters are frequently overcrowded at night to an extent which renders the occupier of the premises liable to be prosecuted.

This Ordinance makes it a punishable offence for outside coolies and other persons not in the employ of the occupier of premises to ocenpy, without his permission, quarters which he has provided for his own servants only.

33. The Water-works Consolidation Ordinance, 1902, is herely repealed, but such repeal shall not affect any- thing lawfully done or suffered thereunder nor be taken to revive any Ordinance thereby repealed.

Objects and Reasons.

The Water-works Consolidation Ordinance (No. 29 of 1902), which provided for the disconnection of all services to tenement houses, except in special cases, and the supply of such premises with water from public fountains placed in the streets and lanes, did not meet with the approval of the Secretary of State for the Colonies and instructions were received to modify its provisions in such a way as to enable the services to be retained whilst facilities were to be afforded for controlling the supply of water in case of need.

This has been done by providing in the present Bill for the supply of practically the whole of the Chinese portion of the City through "rider-mains". These are subsidiary mains, to which all the services to the houses near which they are laid will be connected, and, as they can be shut off by means of valves from the principal mains, the supply of water to the houses can be restricted to any extent cón-. sidered necessary without shutting off the water from the City generally as has to be done at present. The powers of restriction are vested in the Water Authority, subject to the general control of the Governor-in-Council.

The areas within which the "rider-inain "

system is to be applied are to be defined by the Governor-in-Council and, when an area has been so defined, all services to tene- ments within it will be disconnected from the principal mains and connected to the "rider-mains " as they are laid, unless the Governor-in-Council expressly allows any tene- ment to retain its service connected with the former. This is necessary to provide for premises in which any trade may be carried on, for which a constant supply of water may be practically essential, or which, for other reasons, it may be considered desirable to exempt from the "rider- main" system.

The cost of constructing the "rider-mains

" and making the necessary alterations in the services will be charged against the owners of the various tenements within the areas defined by the Governor-in-Council.

Outside the areas defined by the Governor-in-Council and in all cases of exemption within these areas, all ser- vices are to be provided with meters.

This is merely an extension of the system which has been in force outside the City of Victoria for a number of years past. In the Hill District and in Kowloon all sup- plies through services to private premises are at present metered.

In the case of metered supplies an allowance of water in proportion to the rateable value of the premises will be given in respect of the water rate, which is included in the general rates, but all water used over and above that al- lowance will be charged for as excess consumption." This, it is hoped, will conduce to the prevention of waste, which is the chief object aimed at in this Bill, as it was also in that which it is intended to replace.

In periods of scarcity of water, the intermittent system of supply will be put in force in the "rider-main" districts only and, as it will be possible to afford every tenement a supply within a very brief period, it is believed that the necessary economy in the consumption will be effected without extending the system to the City generally. This will enable the occupiers of premises which are supplied by meter to enjoy a constant supply of water and it will also provide means for dealing with outbreaks of fire, as all the principal mains will be constantly charged with water.

Until the "rider-maius" have been applied to a con- siderable portion of the City, it may be necessary to revert to the univeral application of the intermittent system as hitherto, but it is hoped that, with their application over an extended area, this will become unncessary.

CORRESPONDENCE RESPECTING PROPOSAL TO REMOVE THE NAVAL YARD.

HONGKONG, 9th April, 1903.

SIR,--On the 26th ultimo you were good enough to receive a Deputation composed of representatives of the various Commercial interests in this Colony when the question of the proposed new Admiralty Dock was discussed and when as Chairman of the Deputation I had the honour to inform Your Excellency that we proposed to draw up a petition to the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies praying that a Royal Commission be appointed to consider the whole question relating to the dock.

In consequence of the unanimous support this movement has received from all sections of the Hongkong Community a petition has now been prepared and though the time at our disposal has been limited signatures have been readily obtained including those of all classes and nationalities represented here and embracing most, if not all, of the leading business firms in the Colony.

I have now the honour to hand Your Excellency this petition with the request that you will be pleased to forward it to the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies and would further ask that Your Excellency be good enough, as soon as possible, to telegraph a summary of the petition to London.

In conclusion I would beg on behalf of this Community to express our grati- tude for the kindly sympathy Your Excellency has shown to us in this matter and to express the hope that with your able assistance the great improvement for the Colony advocated in our petition may be carried out.

His Excellency

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

HONGKONG, April 4th, 1903.

To the Right Honourable THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE COLONIES,

LONDON.

The humble petition of the undersigned residents in the Colony

of Hongkong on behalf of the Community

RESPECTFULLY SHEWETH that your petitioners desire to bring to your notice the following facts concerning a matter of great moment to the Colony and one which has a very direct bearing on its future advancement and prosperity.

2. We refer to the question of the Admiralty Dock now under construction and the contemplated extension of the Naval Yard.

3. We understand that certain unforeseen engineering difficulties have arisen and that an opportunity may have thus presented itself by which it is possible that if representations be made by the residents of Hongkong, the site of the Dock may be changed without detriment to the efficient docking and repairing of H.M. Ships of War.

4. The question of the present position of the dock is one of such vital importance to the future development of our Colony that we consider we are justified in approaching you on the subject in the hope that a representation of our views may result in the whole question being reconsidered by the various advisers of His Majesty who are concerned in the matter.

5. In support of our contention that much harm must eventually result to the Colony by the proposed Naval Establishment occupying what should, looking to the future, be part of our most important business centre, we beg to submit the following facts.

6. A glance at the attached map of Hongkong will show that the Naval Dock Yard is in the centre of the sea front of the City of Victoria and we would point out that the general tendency is for all leading places of business to congregate in the immediate vicinity of the proposed dock.

7. The praya reclamation scheme, so far as it has been carried out, has pro- vided a much needed stretch of level ground on which large offices have been erected to meet the growing trade requirements of the Colony, and, by increasing the number of main roads running from East to West, has much relieved the congested traffic which formerly had to be concentrated in the Queen's Road and on the old praya.

8. The present position of the Naval Dock Yard unfortunately blocks the extension eastward of this great improvement, cuts the praya in two, congests the traffic, and confines it to a single narrow road. Unless this obstruction is removed, the natural expansion of our city will be irretrievably ruined, much to the dis- advantage of the Colony at large, as, owing to the conformation of the ground, it is the only possible direction in which expansion can take place.

9. We need hardly emphasize the further disadvantages which will be ex- perienced through smoke and noise seriously affecting the comfort of those whose offices or residences are situated in the vicinity of the Dock. Moreover as the work would be going on frequently by night as well as by day these disadvantages, which are particularly felt in a tropical climate, would be specially objectionable to a large section of the community. In this connection we must also consider the serious depreciation in the value of property which will unquestionably result from the above causes. This will be far reaching as it will affect all residential property from the Tram Line eastward as far as the Naval Hospital, and as high up as the Peak.

The noise which will arise from the work at the Dock has been foreshadowed during the present construction and in one case led to a summons for a nuisance being taken out at the Magistracy against the Contractors.

10. Nor are the above the sole arguments for the removal of the Dock Yard which we can adduce.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

11. We understand that even though land now in the possession of the War Department as well as other land were included in the Naval Yard site, the level ground at the disposal of the Naval Authorities would be barely sufficient to meet the present requirements of His Majesty's Navy in the Far East. We believe that` the trend of events is such as to point in the future to a still greater expansion of the British Naval Forces in this part of the globe and under these circumstances we believe we are justified in raising the point that in the near future the new Dock Yard will be found inadequate for the purposes of H. M. Navy.

12. There are, moreover, we believe, other sites which might equally well be made use of for the purpose of a Naval Establishment, but on this point we refrain from saying more as we trust the whole question may shortly form the subject of an enquiry on the part of the respective authorities concerned.

13. The question of the removal of the Naval Yard from its present site is one of such great importance to the Colony as to justify, in our opinion, its in- curring the necessary expenditure to recoup the Admiralty for the money already spent upon the new works.

14. In conclusion we would therefore strongly urge that in the interests of the Colony a Royal Commission be appointed on which all the interests concerned be represented to report not only on matters now under consideration by the various Government Departments but also on the advisability of removing the Dock to another site.

And Your Petitioners will ever Pray, &c.

No. 184.

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 8th April, 1903.

SIR,I have the honour to forward a petition addressed to you by a Committee representing the entire Community of Hongkong. *I enclose the report of a deputa- tion that waited upon me on the subject by which you will see that I entirely agreed with the views of the deputation and undertook to commend the prayer of the petition to the favourable consideration of His Majesty's Government.

2. As will be observed from the terms of the petition, in the event of the decision of the Lords of the Admiralty to meet the wishes of this Colony a site can be offered on the island of Hongkong equally defensible, with ample room for expansion, and at which a Dock begun now would probably be finished at smaller expense and in less time than it will take to complete the Admiralty Dock now in process of contruction, while the cost of the transfer will be borne by the Colony.

3. Apart from the arguments for the change put forward by the petitioners, I venture to submit that the whole question of a Naval Dock at Hongkong is worthy of careful reconsideration by my Lords of the Admiralty. The Hongkong & Whampoa Company have at present five dry docks besides three slips. In one of these docks H.M.S. Powerful has been docked. The Company is prepared, if the Naval authorities desire it, to construct another dock capable of accommodat- ing the largest vessel afloat, they are prepared to supply the Dock with the latest improvements in machinery and to lay down a plant capable of dealing with any repairs that could be required for H. M. Ships and to give to the Naval authorities perpetual right of priority. Messrs. BUTTERFIELD & SWIRE are also at present con- structing a dock of the largest size. I venture to say that with such docking facilities existing and prospective the repairs of His Majesty's Ships would be executed in an entirely satisfactory manner and at a very substantial saving to the Imperial Govern-

ment. The Dock Company have a thoroughly efficient staff with the best appliances. and there is constant work, while a Naval Dockyard must have an expensive establishment always at full strength while it is improbable that the work required for the Fleet on the China Station will keep the Dock fully occupied all the year round. The annual expenditure involved is very considerable and I would urge upon the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty the advisability of sending out a Commission to inquire on the spot into the important questions involved. There is in Hongkong capital and enterprize sufficient to carry out any scheme of docks that His Majesty's Government may decide to be necessary.

DOWNING STREET,

5th June, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No. 184 of the 8th April last, forwarding a petition from residents in Hongkong to the effect that the Naval Yard should be removed to another site.

the

2. It is suggested that the present site of the Naval Yard is inadequate for purposes of His Majesty's Navy, but I am informed by the Lords Commis- sioners of the Admiralty, that though it would no doubt be an advantage if more room were available for extension, the area of the Naval Yard, when completed, will be 39 acres, and there is space for the construction of another dock of the largest size, should an additional dock be found necessary at some future date. There is therefore no necessity, from a Naval point of view, for any change of site.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

3. Their Lordships also state that as the abandonment of the scheme for the extension works now under construction at the Naval Yard would mean postponing, for an indefinite period, the provision of a sufficient equipment for the British Naval base in the Far East, they could not under any circumstances consent to stop those works, the early completion of which they believe to be necessary to security.

4. Subject however to these extension works being completed, and to the Navy continuing to occupy the present Yard and anchorage until new accommoda- tion had been provided, their Lordships would be prepared to entertain a proposal to transfer the Yard, as soon as the Colony at its own cost had made equivalent provision for Naval requirements on an approved site. I enclose an extract from a letter from the Admiralty on this subject.

5. You will observe that this scheme would involve the Colony in very heavy expenditure and the expenditure would not be limited to the provision of a new Naval Yard and Dock, since the removal of the existing Yard would also neces- sitate the removal of the whole or a large part of the Military Establishment adjoin- ing the Naval Yard, and the erection of new Ordnance stores, magazines, barracks, &c., and possibly of new defence works.

6. I have very carefully considered the whole subject, and while I am at once most reluctant to negative a proposal put forward by influential members of the community and supported by yourself, and am well aware how strong are the objections to existing arrangements, I regret to have to inform you that I have come to the conclusion that the expenditure would be heavier than the Colony could bear, and I therefore request you to inform the petitioners that I do not find myself able to meet their wishes.

EXTRACT

From a letter from the Admiralty to Colonia! Office, dated 9th March, 1903.

Their Lordships' first duty is to provide for the necessities of His Majesty's ships on the China Station, present as well as future, and under no circumstances can they assent to abandon the present works, the early completion of which they believe to be necessary to security.

Subject, however, to the requirements of the Navy being met, their Lordships are anxious to place no obstacle in the way of the commercial expansion of the Colony, and they fully recognize that it is best whenever possible to establish Naval Stations outside the boundaries of great Commercial Harbours.

Whilst, therefore, their Lordships, for the reasons already stated, cannot see their way to themselves negotiate for any new site for the Naval Yard, they would not refuse to consider an offer from the Colony to re-provide equivalent accom- modation on an approved site.

In suggesting equivalent accommodation, their Lordships have in view not only the Docks, Basins. Stores, Magazines, Workshops and other accessories to a Naval Yard, but also the available anchorage and whatever defences are necessary to ensure security equal to that obtained under present conditions, and it might also be necessary to replace the Naval Hospital which is in the vicinity of the present Yard.

1168

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

It is further necessary that the Navy should continue to occupy the present Yard and anchorage until the new establishment is ready, and can be handed over to them.

If the Colonial authorities are prepared to deal with the matter on this basis, I am to suggest that they should in the first instance foward full particulars of any site they propose to offer, which must not be on the mainland.

Should their Lordships find it possible to accept any one of the sites, the details of all necessary works would next have to be considered and agreed to. These could then be executed by the Colonial Government to their Lordships' satisfaction, but entirely at its own cost.

When completed the new establishment could be taken over by the Navy, and the present Yard handed over to the Colonial Government.

The following Report on the New Territory, for the year 1902, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 7th August, 1903.

REPORT ON THE NEW TERRITORY, FOR THE YEAR 1902.

1173

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

COLONIAL SECRETARY'S OFFICE,

HONGKONG, 19th March, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit the following Report on the New Territo- ries, for the year 1902.

LAND.

During 1902 the demarcation of the whole of the New Territory with the exception of (1) the coastwise strips from Tai Lam Chung to Tsun Wan, and (2) Lamma Island, was completed. Branch Offices for taking claims were opened at Ping Shan (April 1st to October 18th), and at Sai Kung (July 7th to October 25th), on the mainland: and at Mui Wo, Pui O, Tung Chung and Tai O in Lan Tao Island. All claims on the mainland have been filed except for the narrow strip from Tai Lam Chung to Tsun Wan. These are now being received at a branch office at Tsun Wan which it is hoped, will be closed in May. This will finish claim-taking on the mainland.

The total number of Lots demarcated in 1902 was a follows:-

Total,.

Mainland, 133,631 Lan Tao, 27,994

...161,625

The total number of Lots claimed was:

Total,..

Mainland, 164,971 Lan Tao, 18,289

.183,260

The Full Court had 120 sittings during the year; while the President (Mr. GOMPERTZ) held 129 Single Court sittings in the Land Court and heard 19 cases under the Rent Recovery Ordinance, 14 of 1902. Rent Rolls were made out for Survey Districts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, and for the Districts of Tung Chung and Mui Wo in Lan Tao Island.

The Rent Roll for the rest of the Territory is being pushed on and will be complete before the end of 1903.

An Ordinance to regulate the tenure of land in the New Territory under the style of The New Territories Titles Ordinances, 1902, was passed at the close of the year, but has not been put into operation yet.

SURVEY.

The Traverse Survey was completed in December, the following being the areas surveyed during the year:-

District.

Kowloon, Un Long, Lantao Island,

Lamma Island,

Tsing I Island,

Sub-districts.

Tsun Wan, and part of Luk Yeuk. Tại Lam Chung.

The whole, with the exception of small portions previously surveyed near Mui Wo and Tung Chung.

The whole.

The whole.

The whole.

The whole.

Chik Lap Kok Island,

Ni Ku Chau Island,

To enable the cultivated areas in New Kowloon and several areas near Sha Tau Kok to be re-mapped on a larger scale,-the scale on which the original survey was plotted having been found too small in these cases,-fresh traverses had to be made; the cultivated lands south of the old boundary being also included.

One Indian Sub-Surveyor, with 6 Indian and 6 Chinese Chain-men, was en- gaged upon the work, which was connected at four points with the trigonometrical survey, upon which the topographical survey is based.

1174

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

The areas cadastrally surveyed during the year amounted to 11,715.81 acres, including 219,292 fields. These figures do not compare favourably with those of the preceding year, when over 11,000 acres were dealt with by a considerably less staff, the reason being that the work during 1902 was confined to much more diffi- cult ground, which consisted of the most hilly parts of the whole Territory.

The following were the areas surveyed :-

District.

Kowloon, Tung Hoi, Un Long, Lantao Island,

Sub-districts.

Kau Yeuk, Luk Yeuk, Tsun Wan. The whole.

Tai Lam Chung.

The whole, with the exception of small portions previously surveyed near Mui Wo and Tung Chung.

Tsing I Island,

The whole.

Chik Lap Kok Island,

The whole.

Ni Ku Chau Island.

The whole.

Tap Mun Island,

The whole.

Pak Lap Chau Island,

The whole.

Kau Sai Island,

The whole.

Im Tin Tsz Island,

The whole.

The staff engaged upon this portion of the work consisted, up till June, of two Inspectors, 42 Surveyors, 88 Indian Chain-men and about 60 Chinese coolies. In July, 1 Inspector, 12 Surveyors and 43 Indian Chain-men were sent back to India and, after about a month's cessation, field operations were resumed with 1 In- spector. 27 Surveyors, 37 Indian Chain-men and about 55 Chinese coolies.

The demarcation of the areas surveyed during 1900 was completed by the 10 Surveyors mentioned in last year's Report, who are included in the Cadastral Staff enumerated above. They dealt with 13,446.84 acres, which included 97,960 fields; constituting 32,824 holdings.

One Surveyor, with one Indian coolie, was detailed throughout the whole year for special work in connection with the Land Court.

Five office Assistants were obtained from India in the early part of the year, one having been previously appointed locally. The number of maps dealt with during the year was 296, the boundaries being compared and the holdings and fields inked in and numbered as the sheets were received from the Surveyors.

Two Chinese tracers were engaged in November to assist in producing copies of the maps for the use of the Land Court.

Sickness was somewhat prevalent among the Staff, one Surveyor and two Indian coolies dying during the course of the year and six Indian coolies being in- valided back to India. Two Surveyors were discharged on account of incompe-

tence.

PUBLIC WORKS.

The works in progress, or completed, during 1902, were the following:-

(I.) Tai Po Road.--With the exception of some minor works, confined to the last 5 miles, the whole of the work was completed, the road being available for ricksha traffic throughout its entire length. The distance from Tsim Sha Tsui Point to Tai Po is 18 miles, the first 2 miles consisting of roads south of the old boundary. which were made before the New Territory was taken over. Police Station, Sheung Shui.-The buildings were completed and occupied by the Police in May: accommodation is provided for a Sergeant, 2 European, 12 Indian and 8 Chinese Constables; be- sides a charge-room, two cells, etc.

(III.) Police Station, Tai O.-This station, which is situated near the south- ern extremity of Lantao Island, was completed and occupied by the Police in November. It contains accommodation for a Ser- geant, a European Constable, 8 Indian and 4 Chinese Constables. and 4 Chinese boatmen, besides a charge-room, two cells, etc. Seven Police Stations have now been built in the New Territory, 6

being on the mainland and 1 on Lantao Island.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

(IV.) Defining Boundaries.-Two large granite obelisks, bearing suitable inscriptions, were erected on Lantao Island, and a third near the shore of Mirs Bay, the former defining the points where the western limit of the Concession meets the north and south shores of the Island, and the latter the point where the eastern limit meets the shore of Mirs Bay. The points were established by H. M. S. Bramble.

(V.) Kowloon Waterworks.-Though being constructed principally for the supply of the population south of the old boundary of British Kowloon, these works are situated almost entirely within the New Territory. Substantial progress was made with the excavation of the foundations of the main dam for the large storage reservoir and about 3 miles of 12-inch cast-iron main were laid. The main was brought into service in October for conveying to Mongkoktsui and Yaumati the supply derived from the old intakes above Cheung Sha Wan and several new intakes were constructed and connected

up.

AFFORESTATION.

Tree Planting.-The number of trees planted amounted to 31,746, the major- ity of which were the ordinary pine tree. Most of these were planted along the Taipo Road, and a few at Ping Shan. Included in the total are 2,781 Camphor trees planted along the Taipo Road and 112 Castilloa elastica planted below the same road between the fourth and fifth mile-stones.

Tree Seeds sown.-Pine-tree seeds to produce 46,800 trees were sown broad- cast in the catchment area of the new reservoir and between the sixth and seventh mile-stones, and to produce 24.200 trees in sites to replace the failures of the previous year.

Camphor Trees.-Experiments were made in sowing camphor seeds in pots and planting the young trees out in the middle of the summer when about five months old in order to find a cheaper way of rearing this particular tree than has been prac- tised hitherto. The seeds germinated and the trees were 6" in height when they were planted, some in prepared trenches and some in pits, but they have made very little progress since and do not give much promise of success. That Camphor-trees will grow in the New Territory when placed under suitable conditions is proved by the fine specimens at Ho Sheung Heung. The trunks of seven of these have the following dimensions in circumference at three or four feet from the ground:-

20 feet 7 inches: 15 feet 9 inches: 13 feet 3 inches: 11 feet 4 inches :

11 feet; 8 feet 6 inches: 6 feet 8 inches :

Fire Barriers.-About 4 miles of old Fire Barriers, 15 feet wide, were cleared to protect the young trees on both sides of the Taipo Road.

MEDICAL.

Mr. Ho NAI HOP, Chinese Medical Officer, resided at Taipo and visited pe- riodically the several Police Stations and villages in the New Territory. He treated 812 native patients more than in the previous year.

Malarial Fever.-There was a considerable diminution in the number of cases occurring, especially amongst the members of the Police Force. This is attributed, to a great extent, to the prophylactic administration of quinine. From the 1st May to the beginning of December each of the Police, whether European, Indian or Chinese, was given three grains daily.

Cholera. This disease was prevalent in May. Active measures were taken to check it by the issue of notices warning the Chinese against eating unripe fruit, uncooked vegetables, &c., and advising them always to boil their drinking water.

Small-pox. This disease was epidemic at Taipo and Sha Tin Districts in the spring of the year, some twenty cases occurring with but one death. Prompt measures were taken by vaccinating all the Civil Staff, and as far as possible most of the villagers with calf lymph, and apparently with success as the disease did not spread to the neighbouring districts.

Vaccinations. Free vaccination was carried on at the Police Stations during the winter months and altogether during the year 336 vaccinations were performed as compared with 78 in 1901.

1175

1176

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

Leprosy. The Leper Asylum was visited regularly once a week by Dr. Ho. The total number of inmates was 27.

Plague.-No cases were reported as having occurred during the year.

Staff.-Mr. Ho resigned at the end of the year and was succeeded by Mr. LAU LAI a licentiate of the Hongkong College of Medicine for Chinese.

EDUCATION.

The Committee that reported on Education in the Colony generally made certain recommendations with regard to the New Territory which have not yet been given effect to.

HARBOUR DEPARTMENT.

The Station at the Island of Cheung Chau was opened in September, the one at Tai O in the Island of Lantao, in October, 1899; that at Taipo in Mirs Bay, on board the Police Steam Launch, in January, 1900; that in Deep Bay, on board the Police Steam Launch, in November, 1901; and that at Sai Kung in April, 1902.

From 1st January to 31st December, 1902, 8,359 Licences, Clearances, Per- mits, &c., were issued at Cheung Chau; 3,390 at Tai 0; 3,253 at Taipo; 3,010 at Deep Bay; and 3,108 at Sai Kung.

The Revenue collected by the Harbour Department from the New Territory during 1902 was $13.896.05.

POLICE.

I attach a table showing the distribution of Police in the New Territory in 1902. (Appendix I.)

There were 14 Europeans, 96 Indians and 41 Chinese with 10 Boatmen stationed in the New Territory on land, and 6 Europeans, 35 Chinese doing duty in launches.

There was a very satisfactory decrease in serious crime as compared with 1901, the figures for the last four years being as follows:

Police were employed, in addition to their ordinary Police duties, in collecting Crown Rent, and the Water Police have licensed boats and received the fees on be- half of the Harbour Master.

The new Stations at Sheung Shui and Tai O were occupied on the 19th May and 3rd November respectively.

The Chinese Force stationed on the border has continued active, and it is to a great extent due to its presence that there have been fewer incursions of robbers from over the northern boundary. Increasing appreciation of the presence of the Police is shown in the readiness with which reports of all sorts are made to them: although at times clan combinations and fear of revenge still make it difficult to elicit evidence.

CRIMINAL STATISTICS.

Returns of the number of cases brought before the Magistrates are appended. They show a satisfactory decrease in crime and especially in crime of a serious nature. (Appendix II.)

66

66

Mr. HALLIFAX, the District Magistrate in the New Territories, reports that . though the number of cases brought before the Magistrates shews a reduction. "there is an ever increasing amount of work in the way of arbitration of disputes, nearly all of them trifling: questions of money, marriage and Fung shui are the most common. By far the greater number of these cases are fairly easily settled. "as soon as it is possible to get down to the bed rock of facts: an outside decision "is all that is asked for without any reference to the sentimental points raised on "both sides. Fung shui does at times give trouble: but in no case yet has either party been able even after a week or fortnight to give an idea of their case clear "enough for practical purposes.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 7TH AUGUST, 1903.

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE.

I attach a statement of Revenue and Expenditure for the year 1902. (Ap-. pendix III.)

The collection of Crown Rent has been rendered very difficult owing to the want of a rent-roll based on demarcation. Demarcation is now practically complet- ed and the rent-roll based on it will be ready in the early autumn, when collection of the rent with arrears should be comparatively easy if undertaken with vigour.

Transfers of holdings and parts of holdings are frequent and as the machinery for recording such transfers was not ready, the collection of rent has suffered. The New Territories Titles Ordinance now provides for this want. Changes in the Trustees of common funds are also a constant source of trouble.

GENERAL.

The people seem to be more prosperous than they were in a small way: a num- ber of new houses are going up of a better class than the existing ones; there are a few new shops; a few new tea-houses show increased traffic, especially on the cattle routes; the cultivation of pineapples is noticeably extending; and in spite of the fact that paddy is now at $3.90 a picul, there is no real distress as far as can be seen. But with the exception of the Un Long Powder Factory, and a few establishments in Tsin Wan, there is no new undertaking of any size, unless the increased activity of the brick-kilns can be so designated.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient servant,

His Excellency

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 21st May, 1903.

I have the honour to forward for your information a report on the New Terri- tory, for the year 1902.

2. The reports forwarded with my previous despatches mentioned in the margin. 17th March. will have shown the steps taken from the hoisting of the British flag at Taipo on the 16th April, 1899. It will be remembered that on the taking over of the New Territory we found a population roused to a spirit of active antagonism by lying reports carefully disseminated apparently with the concurrence of the Chinese 12th August, Authorities. The attacks made upon our troops were easily defeated, and active hostilities ceased after two engagements, to be succeeded by a period of distrust, happily not of long duration.

3. The district of San On, North of Ko Peninsula, leased to Great Britain under the Convention of 1898, he's not enjoyed a good reputation. Armed robbery on shore and piracy in the surrounding waters were too common to excite comment locally, powerful clans levied tribute from outlying cultivators, and settled their differences with rival clans by a ready appeal to force without the intervent any Chinese Official. Might was right, and during the journey through the district of Mr. LOCKHART, then Colonial Secretary, after the suppression of the outbreak, the small villages expressed a hope that they would be protected against the bullying to which they were subjected by the larger villages.

4. The first thing to be done was to ensure peace and to generate as far as pos- sible among the inhabitants a feeling of personal security. Military posts were established on the frontier and commanding positions, and Military and Police co-operated in a system of patrols. The location of permanent Police Stations was determined, each Station being connected with Hongkong by telephone, and the division of New Territory into districts undertaken. The Territory was divided into eight districts, which were subdivided into forty-seven sub-districts, the village elders, who were the natural leaders of the people. being appointed district elders. with judicial power to deal with petty cases in their several districts.

5. At the same time Mr. LOCKHART was given a general controlling power over these district courts with co-ordinate jurisdiction. I was under the impression that these powers would have been appreciated by the elders and that the Courts would have been resorted to: but as a matter of fact the elders displayed no anxiety to take the duties upon themselves, and from the beginning the community showed perfect confidence in Mr. LOCKHART, and subsequently in Mr. HALLIFAX, who is now acting as Police Magistrate in the New Territory, but whose practical work is more often that of an Arbitrator, whose decision is accepted without demur.

6. Taipo Hu, a small market town at the head of Tolo harbour in Mirs Bay, was selected as the most suitable position for headquarters, situated as it is in almost the centre of the Territory, and this position has now been connected with Kowloon Peninsula by an excellent road, with easy gradients, 18 miles in length, upon the construction of which $225,133 have been expended. This road obviates the necessity of communicating with Taipo Hu by sea, a sometimes rough and dangerous passage. I am considering the possibility of arranging for the further extension of roads in the New Territory by local co-operation and without expense to the general revenue.

7. Having established Police Stations, and arranged for the patrol of the territo- rial waters by Police launches to check armed robberies ashore and afloat, the ques- tion of Crown Rents and Taxes had next to be considered.

The district is a poor one, and almost entirely dependent upon agriculture and fishing, and, north of the range of Kowloon Hills, the main source of revenue must for the present be the Crown Rent upon land. This necessitated a survey, and demarcation of the holdings, for which purpose a staff of Surveyors and Demarcators were obtained from India. At the same time a Land Court was established to deal with all claims and grant leases to those who could prove title by deeds, or, in the absence of adverse claim, by occupation. To understand the difficulties of the Demarcators it must be remembered that much of the cultivation is on hilly ground, the small rice plots, which must be perfectly flat to admit of periodical flooding when the rice is sown, being terraced in patches, some of which are but a few square yards in area. Up to the 31st March the total number of such farms demarcated was 283,975, while the total number of holdings for which claims have been presented to the Land Court was 219,517. In this Land Court I determined that Solicitors and Barristers should not have a right to appear without the special permission of the Court, as the claims were for small amounts and I felt that substantial justice would be done at the smallest cost to the claimants. In the performance of this duty, Mr. GOMPERTZ, Assistant Colonial Secretary, who has from the beginning been a Member of the Land Court, has done excellent work. His report, given in Appendix No. 2 forwarded with the report on the Territory for 1900, shows some of the difficulties that presented themselves in the settlement of these claims, and the attached map of a portion of the map of claims for the land and village of Sam Shui Po, in the Kowloon Peninsula, now before the Land Court, will further show how these claims overlap in apparently inextricable confusion. Here the assistance of Counsel has been permitted as the claims represent very large sums, the value of land south of the Kowloon range having enormously increased since the taking over of the Territory. An exemplification of this is given in the case of a portion of the shore of Devil's Peakeninsula, west of Lyemun Pass. The claimant obtained about eleven years ago a right to about 127 acres for the purpose of establishing fishing ponds. The consideration was five dollars per annum. Having paid one or two years' rent he was five years in arrear when the first whisper was known that the land would probably be ceded to Great Britain, upon which rumour he paid the arrears, and in due course laid his claim before the Land Court, which confirmed his grant. The total amount paid by him was about thirty dollars. As soon as his claim was confirmed he sold it to a local company for fifty thousand dollars, as the bay, a portion of which is included in the claim, is suitable for the construction of a dock. I hope that the labours of the Land Court may be concluded by the end of this year, when Mr. GOMPERTZ will revert to his substantive appointment of Assistant Colonial Secretary.

8. The Revenue collected from the Territory during the year was $45,334.03. I question whether the revenue to be derived from Crown Rent at the rate fixed at present will exceed $60,000, so far as the New Territory is concerned, outside the portion between the Kowloon range of hills and the Harbour: but for this portion I look forward to a steady development as soon as the claims to the land have been settled. As will be seen in reference to Appendix No. 4 p. 19 of the report for- warded with my despatch No. 61 of 19th February, 1900, the right to alter the amount of Crown Rent there laid down for the three classes of cultivable land was reserved, but, having regard to the density of the population and their condition, I question whether any general increase will be found advisable. The area of the New Territory is about 370 square miles, of which the cultivated area is about 45,000 acres or 61 square miles.

miles. The estimated population is 100,000. Therefore, although the population shows but 270 persons per square mile of the total area, the population per square mile of cultivated area is 1,639, and while to the produce of the land must be added the result of the fishing, in which a considerable number of the inhabitants are engaged for a portion of the year, it is evident that, having regard to the density of the population, there can be but little taxable mar- gin in the absence of other than agricultural industries. Although up to the present the hills have not been utilised for astoral | urposes, I am not without hope that by the introduction of more succulent grasses the 200 square miles of now barren hills may be made to support cattle sufficient to supply the demands of Hongkong, now dependent upon the import of cattle from the North and West River sources that recent action of the Governor of Kwang Si in prohibiting ex- port has shown to be somewhat precarious. The Botanical Department is at present

examining into this question. For the improvement of agriculture, sugar canes have been imported from the Straits Settlements and Honolulu, and over eleven thousand plants distributed among the Chinese, and improved sugar mills have been introduced, while a wealthy and enterprising Chinese gentleman has established an experimental farm, in the conduct of which the Botanical Department is giving him assistance and advice.

9. The Expenditure was for the year 1901, $326,668.73, of which $163,741.11 was chargeable to the Land Court and Public Works Extraordinary-charges that will soon cease. It may, therefore, be roughly taken that the normal expenditure of the Territory will be about $162,000. With the certain development of New Kowloon and the probable improvement of the pastoral capabilities of the hills, I am of opinion that within seven or eight years the Revenue and Expenditure of the New Territory will quadrate, and later on the Territory will materially assist in the General Revenue.

10. So far no systematic geological examination has been made either of the mainland or of the large island of Lantao, but as a silver mine has been worked on the latter, it is possible that when the state of the revenue justifies the employ- ment of a Geologist, minerals may be found in payable quantities, in which event the congestion of the agricultural population would be relieved and new conditions established that would increase prosperity. At present our most serious difficulties are armed robberies on shore and afloat, which, though steadily diminishing, are still of too frequent occurrence. They are the most common offences in the Southern provinces, and, so far as I can learn, the Provincial Authorities do not attempt to deal with such cases until some village is reported as being specially notorious as harbouring robbers, when, if the Authorities do not consider them too strong, a force is sent out and as many as possible arrested or the village destroyed. But at this moment there are on the Canton Delta two towns well known as being the headquarters of organized gangs that commit the piracies of the West River. As however they can muster över one thousand fighting men, the Canton Viceroy does not dare to interfere with them. Such habits and customs cannot be con- trolled at once without a much larger Police force than we have at present, but the Police have, by a judicious system of patrolling, materially reduced the number of those offences, and a fair proportion of the perpetrators have been made amenable and are undergoing punishment, while the peopic, who were at first disinclined to appeal to the Police, now show a readiness to come forward and give assistance in the work of detection.

11. The education in the New Territory has up to the present been left in the hands of the village teachers; but a school is about to be established in the large village of Un Long in which English will be taught by a competent Chinese Master.

12. On the whole I consider the development of the New Territory satisfactory. There have been some difficulties experienced by the Public Works Department in carrying out their operations, but they have been surmounted without friction with the inhabitants, and without extravagance. The Taipo Road has opened up a beautiful country round the shores of Mirs Bay, free from the fog that make re- sidence on the Peak so trying in the spring and early summer, and eight to ten degrees cooler than Hongkong. It is probable that in years to come country houses will be built in this district, and other developments take place, that will conduce to the comfort and well being of the Colony.

I have, &c.,

PLAGUE CASES TREATED IN THE KENNEDY TOWN HOSPITAL.

KENNEDY TOWN HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 6th July, 1903.

SIR, I have the honour to report, for the information of His Excellency the Governor, regarding the Plague cases that have been treated in Kennedy Town Hospital this year up to this date.

2. Two hundred and eighty-two cases of Plague have been admitted to this date, of which 87 were discharged cured, 171 died, and 24 are still in Hospital, but all convalescent. All these 24 will almost certainly recover completely, and for purposes of my calculations in what follows I shall class them with those cured. As the epidemic seems practically over, future admissions to the Hospital this year will probably scarcely interfere with general statements that may now be made; and this year's figures may, I think, be quite fairly compared tentatively with the total figures for previous years.

3. At the beginning of the epidemic, as fresh curative serum is not yet avail- able locally, and as last year's experience sufficiently proved serum imported from Europe to be useless, I decided to continue trials I had made to some extent in the two previous epidemics as to the curative value of oil of Cinnamon. As an aromatic volatile oil it is antiseptic, and it is absorbed into the blood unchanged, so I

gave it in large doses in the form of the essence, in the hope that it might be absorbed in sufficient quantities to exercise its antiseptic action against the Plague Bacilli. After a further series of 30 cases, however, I abandoned it as useless.

4. The next series of cases, over a hundred in number, I treated on general principles, symptomatically, until the 18th of May, when you suggested to me a further trial of Carbolic Acid in larger doses than when I previously used it in this Hospital.

5. I consented to make such further trial, though, I confess, without much hope of its proving of value.. I had in 1901 used this drug in a series of over 200 cases in doses of 80 grains a day, and while the mortality in that year was 76.5 %, slightly less than the average, I did not think it had been much affected by the

treatment.

6. It was, I think, your proposal that one should begin with an initial dosage of 144 grains in 24 hours, but rapidly diminish the quantity given. I determined, however, to push the remedy to the utmost, and, while watching carefully against any appearances of poisoning, to give the drug in full doses so long as Plague Bacilli were present in the blood. I accordingly gave 144 grains of Carbolic Acid daily, divided into two-hourly doses of 12 grains each, and administered, as two years ago, in a mixture flavoured with Syrup of Orange and Chloroform water, in some cases over long periods. Inspector KNIGHT, for instance, consumed over 2,500 grains of

pure Carbolic Acid before his blood was free from Plague Bacilli.

7. With these enormous doses, I expected evidence of Carbolic Acid poisoning to appear frequently, but it was practically unknown. In a few cases Carboluria developed, but the omission of one or two doses was usually sufficient to clear the urine, and permit resumption of the remedy in full doses. In certain cases dys- peptic symptoms occurred, but in these greater dilution of the mixture with water was all that was required to overcome this obstacle to its consumption.

This absence of untoward symptoms is probably an incidental testimony to the purity of the Apothecary's stock of Carbolic Acid, as Carboluria is believed to be due more to impurities in the acid than to the drug itself.

8. As a result of observation of its use in a series of 143 cases, I consider Car- bolic Acid in large doses the most hopeful means of treating Plague thus far at our disposal in Hongkong.

1276

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 28TH AUGUST, 1903.

9. Before looking at the actual figures, there are two circumstances that need to be mentioned, and for which due allowance must be made:-

(1) The treatment with Carbolic Acid was commenced late in the epidemic, at a stage when there is a greater natural tendency to recovery, the disease being invariably more virulent early in the season.

(2)-Coincidently with my beginning the use of Carbolic Acid, Dr. BELL announced his modification of Ross's method for the examination of a thick film of malaria blood as a method for the examination of plague blood; and as a consequence of this improved means of diagnosis a much larger number of very mild cases, many of which would not have been diagnosed as Plague in former years, were proved to be Plague and sent to Kennedy Town. These cases swelled the pro- portion of cases recovering.

10. I should like in passing to express my sense of the great value of BELL'S method for the diagnosis of Plague. I at once put it in routine use both at Tung Wah Hospital and at Kennedy Town Hospital. At Kennedy Town it has not only added to precision of diagnosis, but it has enabled one to watch more definitely the progress of the illness; and I have used this, as I have mentioned, as my guide in the use of Carbolic Acid, while disappearance of the Plague Bacilli from the blood circulation has become a sine quâ non before discharge from the Hospital.

11. The following tables show the racial aud general mortality before and during the use of Carbolic Acid; and to facilitate comparison I submit the total figures for the current year, to date, alongside the corresponding figures for 1901 and 1902:-

13. When all allowances, such as I have before referred to, have been made, I think it must be admitted that Carbolic Acid is of undoubted value in the treat- ment of Plague, when given in such doses as to allow its sufficient concentration in the blood to exert its antiseptic action on the bacilli. It is, however, by no means a specific remedy; and, while reporting thus favourably on its use, I would urge upon His Excellency's attention the desirability of carrying into effect before next epidemic season proposals already sanctioned for the production locally of a Curative Serum for the treatment of Plague.

14. I attach a Table showing the main facts regarding each of the Plague cases admitted this year, entered in series in the order of their admission to Hospital; and also notes in more detail with temperature charts of six typical Plague cases, illustrating different forms of the disease, and some of them presenting features of peculiar interest.

I have the honour to be,

The Honourable

Dr. J. M. ATKINSON,

(b.) where no person has been certified by the Land Court to be the owner or customary mortgagee of such land, or where the person liable makes default, then by any person or persons who appear to be or who claim to be in actual beneficial occupation of such land, and they may deduct the amount of Crown Rent so paid by them from the rent, if any,

due by them in respect of such land to their immediate landlord.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH SEPTEMBER, 1903. 1337

    7. The expression "agricultural land" as used in these Rules shall mean land which is used solely and exclusively for purposes of agriculture or fruit-growing.

    8. Every sum now due or payable or which shall hereafter become due and payable to the Crown on account of Crown Rent may be recovered in the manner hereinafter provided.

A.--(1.) The proper officer shall prepare from the Rent Rolls general notices in the form prescribed in Schedule A specifying the name of each person from whom Crown Rent appears to be due and the amount due by him. The notice shall be exhibited in a Police Station or some other convenient place within each district.

(2.) When any such sum has fallen due and a written notice of demand for it has been served on any one of the persons liable for it or published in the prescribed manner, and fifteen days, or such further time as may have been allowed by such notice, have elapsed from the time of such service or publication without such sum having been paid or satisfied, such sum shall be deemed to be in arrear and every person liable for it shall be deemed to be a defaulter.

B. With a view to the recovery of arrears the officer appointed by the Governor in that behalf may issue an attachment and may seize by virtue thereof any personal property of the defaulter and may also seize any live stock or effects or any crops to whom- soever belonging which may be found on the land in respect of which the arrears are due and may after the prescribed notice sell the same by public auction in the prescribed manner.

C.-The attachment may be made by a Land Bailiff who shall publicly notify the attachment in the prescribed manner and shall take an inventory of the property attached.

D. If the arrears cannot be recovered in the manner aforesaid the proper officer may proceed against the land in respect of which the arrears have accrued as next hereinafter provided.

E. (1.) The proper officer may by notice of sale (to be served or published in the prescribed manner) declare his intention of selling, at the expiration of three months from the date of such notice of sale, the land in respect of which the arrears have accrued, and, if at the expiration of such period such arrears have not been paid or satisfied, the said officer may sell by public auction the whole of such land or such portion thereof or such interest therein as he may deem sufficient.

(2.) Provided that in case of any auction sale of land held under this section it shall be competent for the proper officer to fix a reserve price below which no such land shall be sold, such reserve price not to exceed the amount of the arrears together with interest thereon at the rate of eight per cent. per annum, and costs: and provided further that in the event of no bid equal to or exceeding the amount of such réserve price being offered at the time of sale, a report to that effect shall be furnished by the proper officer to the Governor who may, at any time after one week from the date of such auction sale, declare by notification in the Gazette that such land is resumed by the Crown, and such land shall be and become the property of the Crown from and after the date of such notification.

F.-The proceeds of such sale shall be applied in the first place in satisfaction of the arrears together with interest thereon at the rate of eight per cent. per annum and costs, and in the event of there being any surplus remaining, the said officer shall, if he is satisfied as to the right of any person claiming such surplus, pay the amount thereof to such person, and if he is not so satisfied shall hold the amount in trust for the person who may ultimately succeed in due course of law in establishing his title thereto.

G. The purchaser at a sale held under the last preceding paragraph shall be deemed to have acquired the right offered for sale free from all incumbrances created over it and from all subordinate interests derived from it except such as are expressly reserved by the said officer at time of sale.

II.-All costs of any proceedings under these Rules for the recovery of arrears may be

recovered in the same way as if they formed part of such arrears.

I-If any person, having any interest in any property liable to be sold under the provisions of these Rules, at any time previous to such sale tenders to the said officer the arrears with interest and costs, the said officer shall thereupon desist from any further proceedings in respect thereof.

J.-If any person whose personal property, crop or land has been attached or advertised for sale under the rovisions of these Rules disputes the propriety of the attachment or sale he may apply to the Supreme Court in its Summary Jurisdiction for an other to stay the proceedings and the Court after hearing the said officer and making such fur- ther enquiry as may be necessary shall make such order in the premises as shall be just.

1338

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH SEPTEMBER, 1903.

K.-No application shall be entertained by the Court under the last preceding paragraph unless the applicant has deposited in Court the amount of the arrears and costs, or given security for the same to the satisfaction of the Court.

L.-If a person liable to pay any sum due under these Rules cannot be found, the notice required by Rule 8 A (2) of these Rules shall be published by affixing a copy, in the form prescribed in Schedule B, to his house, or to a temple, or to police station or other conspicuous building in the vicinity.

M.-Under paragraph B of these Rules the proper officer may, at his own instance, or on the oral application of a Land Bailiff or other officer of his department, issue a warrant of attachment in the form prescribed in Schedule D).

The Land Bailiff or other officer to whom the attachment is addressed shall notify the same by affixing or posting a copy thereof to or upon a conspicuous part of the premises in which the seizure is effected.

N.---The attachment of moveable property shall be effected by an actual seizure, and an inventory shall forthwith be taken of such property by the attaching officer, who shall keep the property in his own custody, or in the custody of one of his subordinates, and shall be responsible for the safety thereof.

He shall not enter any dwelling house after sunset or before sunrise, nor shall he break open the outer door of a dwelling house. But when he has duly gained access to any dwelling house, he may unfasten or break open the door of any room in which he has reason to believe there is any property liable to attachment.

().-The attachment of crops shall be effected by notice prohibiting the person in possession from removing or dealing with the same. Such notice (Schedule E) shall be posted up on the land on which the crops are growing, and a copy thereof shall be posted at a temple, police station or other conspicuous building in the vicinity.

    Whereas Bubonic plague has now ceased to be epidemic in Hongkong and elsewhere but whereas the disease is now endemic in Hongkong and several ports in China, it is expedient to repeal the Royal Decrees of the 28th March and 16th May 1903, and to substitute another Decree, therefore it is hereby decreed:

    1. For the purposes of this Decree the Inspection Station shall be in the River Menam Chow Phya opposite the Custom House at Paknam.

2. Any vessel, which having cleared from Hongkong or y Port in China arrives in Siamese waters on or after the date of the present Decree, shall drop anchor at the said Inspection Station and shall stay there until such a time as the Medical Officer shall have boarded her and have given pratique.

    3. No person other than Health Officer or one of his assistants shall communicate from any ship coming from Hongkong or any port in China with the land or from the land with such ship or from such ship with other ships or from other ships with such ship before she has received pratique.

    4. The Master or other person having the control of any vessel in quarantine shall give the Health Officer such information about the vessel and the voyage and the health of the crew and passengers and otherwise as the Health Officer may require and shall answer fully and truly questions put to him by the Health Officer, and shall if required by the Heltli Officer furnish the necessary boats and appliances for the landing of the passengers or crew at the Quarantine Station, and shall, in a general way, give the Health Officer all necessary assistance to enable him to grant pratique to the

vessel.

    5. The Health Officer may board any vessel arriving in Siamese waters and inspect every person in the vessel. He may, if he thinks necessary, call for inspection of the ship's bills of health emigration papers or other documents which he may require to enable him to grant pratique and he shall use every lawful means which to him may seem expedient for ascertaining the sanitary condition of the vessel and persons therein.

    6. Any vessel which shall be so loaded as to be unable to pass over the bar at the entrance of the river Menam Chow Phya shall, in order to obtain permission to lighten or load at the outside anchor- age of Koh-si-chang or of Anghin

(a) give through the ship's agent in Bangkok to the Health Officer of the Local Government Board previous written notice of the ship's expected arrival at such outside anchorage ;

    (b) deliver to the Customs officer stationed at outside anchorage a written declaration stating that no death from or case of bubonic plague has occurred on board from port of departure.

    7. The Health Officer shall be and is hereby empowered to deal with all infected vessels and persons as he may think proper to prevent the spreading of the disease.

8. Any and all persons committing a breach of the present Decree or assisting in any way in the commission of such breach, and the master, Captain or other person having the control of any vessel or boat, on board of which such breach has been committed or which has been in any way engaged in the commission of such breach, shall be severally liable to a fine not exceeding two thousand ticals or to imprisonment not exceeding six months or to both such punishments.

9. Any cost incurred by the Government, in the maintenance of any person removed to the Quarantine Station shall be repaid by the agents of the vessel.

    10. The execution of the present Decree shall be and is hereby entrusted to the Minister of the Local Government, with the full assistance of the Naval Department.

3. A person who receives or harbours a Chinese woman who has left her husband because of his cruelty to her or because of his failure properly to maintain her shall not be deemed to have received or harboured such married woman without reasonable excuse.

Objects and Reasons.

To check the growth of a habit of enticing away married women from their husbands reported as becoming prevalent in the New Territories.

As the civil remedy is in such cases, owing to the cir- cumstances surrounding the persons affected, of no practical value, it is proposed to make it an offence punishable on summary conviction to receive or harbour a woman married according to the law or custom of China who, without reasonable excuse, leaves the protection of her husband.

The Bill declares cruelty or failure properly to maintain a wife to be reasonable excuse for her leaving her husband.

Extract from the Secretary of State's despatch No. 16 of 16th January, 1903, to His Excellency Sir H. A. Blake.

It was not intended to make any such distinction in regard to the grant of Sterling Salaries, as is contemplated in your despatch No. 512, between officers of the Hongkong Service who are and those who are not entitled to exchange com- pensation. According to the principle laid down in the case of the Straits Settle- ments and the Federated Malay States, the salaries of all non-clerical posts which exceeded $1,200 a year were to be included in the Sterling Scheme; and officers appointed after the beginning of August, 1901, to any such posts came under the Sterling Scheme, regardless of the question whether or not they would have been entitled, under the existing rules, in virtue of domicile or in other respects, to ex- change compensation.

C. J. IRVINE,

Chief Harbour Master.

REFERRING to Notice to Mariners Nos. 3 and 4, dated May 15th and July 25th, 1903, respectively, further notice it hereby given that the following alterations which have been found necessary will be made on or about the 30th Auguss

next :-

The Beacons forming No. 1 Lead will be removed altogether.

  In lieu thereof two Beacons showing Green Lights will be placed on the North Bank, one near the present Reflecting Beacon and the other opposite the present No. 1 White Light, as shown on plan which may be obtained at these offices.

  Two Light Beacons (both red) will be placed on the North Bank, which when in line, will lead through the Cutting to the Bend, and will be hereafter termed No. 1 Lead.

Sailing Directions.-To enter the River pass the Occulting Light Buoy at a distance of about 50ft., and steer between the White Light on a Pile abreast the old Lighthouse and the first Green Light, which is placed between the Reflecting Beacon and the Cutting, on a N.E. by E. course, passing the second Green Light at a similar distance until the New Lead on the North Bank (now termed No. 1 Lead) comes in line. Keep them in line until abreast of No. 2, then steer for No. 3 as before.

I

This affects Admiralty Chart No. 1750.

P.S. Owing to the nature of the work in progress, this notice may require to be amended from time to time, and therefore should be treated as tentative only.

During the progress of the work at the Light's Passage Harbor, Masters exempt from pilotage may, if they so desire, avail themselves of the services of a pilot to assist them in passing the works, either in or out, at one-half of the usual pilotage rates.

If the usual exemption flag is not hoisted, it will be taken as a signal that a pilot is required. At night, if a pilot is wanted, the usual signal for a pilot should be shown.

CURRENCY IN HONGKONG,

(Correspondence respecting proposal for an enquiry.)

HONGKONG GENERAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, HONGKONG, 28th February, 1903.

 SIR,-I am directed to inform you, for the information of His Excellency the Governor, that in November last the Singapore Chamber of Commerce addressed this Chamber, drawing attention to the steps taken by that Chamber with the object of investigating and considering the possibility of arriving at some method by which the fixing of Exchange between gold and silver in Singapore and the Straits Settlements might be solved, and asking for this Chamber's views as to the advisability of taking any action in the same direction with regard to the currency of Hongkong.

 At a meeting of the Committee specially called to discuss this matter, held on the 23rd December last, it was decided to reply that, although they greatly appre- ciated the friendly desire for joint action, the Committee regretted that, by reason of the very different position occupied by the two Colonies, they were unable to see their way, whilst China still retains a silver currency, to take any steps which might tend to lead the Government to adopt another Standard.

 Since the expression of opinion by the Committee, a requisition from five members was received calling for a Special General Meeting of the Members of the Chamber, for the purpose of discussing the question of local currency, and this Meeting of Members was held on the 18th instant, when the following Resolution was carried by a majority.

That in the opinion of this Meeting it is desirable the Straits Currency Commission should extend its enquiries to Hongkong with a view to ascertaining whether reform of the Colony's currency arrangements is advisable."

In this connection, I enclose copies of the following papers:--

1. Published minutes of Committee Meeting held 23rd December, 1902.* 2. Notice calling Special General Meeting of Members for 18th February,

1903.*

3. Published minutes of Special General Meeting.*

SIR,-With reference to your letter of the 28th ultimo, I am directed to inform you that a copy of the Resolution therein contained will be forwarded to the Secre- tary of State for the Colonies in due course.

Secretary,

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

I have. &c..

No. 174.

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 2nd April, 1903.

SIR,-I have the honour to transmit for your information the enclosed copy of a letter from the Chamber of Commerce regarding the proposal to fix a rate of Exchange between gold and silver and so relieve trade in this Colony from the difficulties and embarrassments caused by the fluctuations in their relative value. As stated in the letter, a majority of the Chamber have at a recent meeting adopted the following Resolution: "That in the opinion of this Meeting it is desirable the Straits Currency Commission should extend its enquiries to Hongkong with a view to ascertaining whether reform of the Colony's currency arrangements is advisable."

I laid the letter from the Chamber of Commerce with the Resolution there- in contained before my Executive Council, and was advised by a majority that it would be well to have a Commission appointed to enquire into the currency question so far as it affected Hongkong, but that such a Commission should be separate and distinct from that appointed to enquire into the question in Singapore. The Council offered no opinion on the ultimate question

opinion on the ultimate question as to whether a gold standard should or should not be adopted for Hongkong, but advised that in the event of His Majesty's Government deciding to appoint a Commission, the Hong- kong Chamber of Commerce should be invited to nominate two gentlemen for appointment as members, one to represent that section of the Chamber which is in favour of the status quo, and the other to represent the section which is in favour of adopting a gold standard.

I enclose* also for your information copies of the proceedings of the Cham- ber of Commerce at a Meeting of the Committee held on the 23rd December, 1902, and of a General Meeting of the Chamber held on the 18th February, 1903, at which the Resolution now forwarded was adopted by a majority of 40 to 25.

As it appeared to me that the papers read on that occasion by the gentlemen who proposed the Resolution in opposition to the conclusion formed by the Com- mittee of the Chamber at the Meeting of 23rd December had been carefully prepar- ed, while the time occupied in the discussion was palpably not sufficient to admit of well considered reply, I communicated with a number of the most important Merchants, Managers of Shipping Companies, and Bankers in the Colony requesting their views on the subject. I attach their answers which will show that, among the mercantile men who have the largest stake in the Colony, including British, German and Chinese, there is an almost unanimous feeling against any interference. with the present currency so long as the Chinese currency remains what it is.

*

The arguments put forward in these various statements cover the whole ground from a business point of view, and a glance at the gold value of shares ten years ago and now shows that the gold value of capital then invested has increased

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 9TH OCTOBER, 1903.

very considerably even with the depreciated dollar. But there is another aspect of the question that requires very grave consideration even before a Commission be decided upon, for the appointment of a Commission would at once further affect Exchange. Can this Colony afford to pay the cost of conversion? Assuming a gold reserve, with paper currency and token silver coins, is the paper to be inconvert- ible? If not, gold selling sometimes at a premium, our reserve will be demanded for conversion into gold leaf, of which there is enormous consumption in China, and must be replaced, while of the large token coin there will probably be a perennial supply of counterfeit from China that we can only exclude by the establishment of a rigid Customs service and the total change in the character of the port, which has grown and thriven upon its freedom from restrictions. While if the silver rises beyond the token value of the coin then the silver currency will be at once con- verted into bullion.

These are questions that can be answered in London as well as in Hongkong, and require to be very carefully considered before any step is taken that will disturb present conditions. Whether Hongkong turns to the East or to the West it is evident that she will have to meet Exchange fluctuations on one side or the other. At present the double calculation is made by the merchant or commission agent in Hongkong. If we seek to transfer that trouble to the Chinese importer and exporter, will he not prefer to continue to deal in Exchange with his accustom- ed currency in Chinese ports to which the Exchange Banks will transfer their busi- ness, and where he will be met by all the most active merchants and brokers who will perforce be drawn by trade competition from Hongkong? Such an exodus from this port would profoundly affect its prosperity which has grown upon the principle of minimum interference with the freedom of trade and a maximum of convenience for the Chinese traders.

22nd August, 1903.

  SIR, I have the honour to acknowle lge the receipt of your despatch No. 174 of the 2nd April, with its enclosures, on the subject of the currency in Hongkong.

  I regret that I have not returned an earlier reply to your despatch, which has, however, been receiving my careful attention. I transmit to you herewith a copy of Resolutions agreed to at a recent Conference between Delegations from the United States, China and Mexico, and Representatives of this country, regarding the mone- tary systems of silver-using contries and the establishment of a national currency in the Chinese Empire, together with a copy of a Message from the President of the United States which led up to the Conference. The Delegations are now discussing the silver question with Representatives of different Governments in Europe.

  It does not appear expedient to discuss further at the present stage the possi- bility of establishing a gold standard in Hongkong, the difficulties of which are clearly stated in your despatch. It appears to me to be out of the question to

entertain the idea of adopting a gold standard of currency for the Colony while China remains a silver standard country, and I do not, therefore, consider that it would be expedient to appoint a Commission to enquire into the subject.

(Enclosure.)

CONFERENCE between DELEGATIONS from the UNITED STATES, CHINA, and MEXICO, and REPRESENTATIVES of GREAT BRITAIN.

POINTS regarding monetary systems for silver-using countries on which the Conference unanimously agree:-

1. That the adoption in silver-using countries of the gold standard on the basis of a silver coin of unlimited legal tender, but with a fixed gold value, would greatly promote the development of those countries and stimulate the trade between those countries and countries already possessing the gold standard, besides enlarging the investment opportunities of the world.

2. That a national currency for the Chinese Empire, consisting of silver coins which shall be full legal tender throughout the Empire, is urgently desirable.

As soon as practicable, steps should be taken for the establishment in China of a fixed relation between the silver unit and gold.

3. That approximate uniformity in the coinage ratio between gold and the silver coins of such countries as may hereafter adopt a gold standard is desirable.

4. That, if there are no further serious changes in the price of silver bullion, it is desirable that the coinage ratio between gold and the silver coins of those silver-using countries which may hereafter adopt a gold standard should be fixed at about 32 to 1.

5. That fluctuations in the price of silver bullion would, to some extent, be prevented by reasonable regularity in the purchases of silver required by each Government for actual coinage purposes, and that such regularity is desirable, and might be adopted, as far as possible, in each country, subject to its monetary policy

and convenience.

8. If a meter be found to be out of order, or if it be removed for repair or alteration, the fact will be noted on the memorandum, mentioned in Regulation 6. On fixing a new meter or re-fixing the old meter a second memorandum will be left at the tenement. The consumption for the time that the meter was out of order or for the time that the service was without a meter will be calculated according to the average daily rate of consumption that obtained during the period between any two successive readings, whilst the meter was in good order, immediately preceding the removal of the meter.

9. If the consumer doubts the accuracy of the meter, which measures the water supplied to the tenement owned or occupied by him, then the meter will, on demand, be tested by the Water Authority. The consumer, or any person appointed by him, may be present when the meter is tested. The results of the test will be binding both on the Water Authority and on the consumer; and the quantity of water indicated by the meter, from the first reading of the quarter as defined in Regulation 7, shall be corrected according to the results of the test.

If the meter be found to indicate correctly or if it be found to indicate too little, then a fee of $10 shall be paid for testing.

If the meter be found to indicate too much then no fee shall be paid for testing.

10. Meters will be maintained by the Water Authority, and all repairs, except those caused by wilful damage or negligence, will be made by the Water Authority free of cost to the consumer.

11. The value of the amount of water consumed during the quarter will be ascertained and calculated in accordance with Regulations 1, 7 and 8 as the case may be. The owner of any tenement to which a metered supply is given shall be liable to pay for that supply until he has given notice to the Water Authority in writing of his wish to have the supply discontinued.

12. The price to be paid for the construction, alteration or repair of any services made at the request of the owner or occupier shall be in accordance with the list of prices in Schedule 2. The Water Authority shall, as soon as practicable, after the completion thereof, present an account to the person who so requested in the form 4 in Schedule 1. The amount as shown in such account shall be paid into the Colonial Treasury within fourteen days of the presentation of the account.

13. In all cases of metered supplies an account shall be delivered quarterly of the amount to be paid for the water consumed in the preceding quarter and for the meter rent. The account shall be in the form B in Schedule 1, and the amount thereof shall be paid into the Colonial Treasury within fourteen days of the presentation of the account.

14. The suspension of the water supply may be effected by severing the pipe, conveying the supply to be suspended, or by such other means as the Water Authority may deem necessary.

15. All new services and alterations to old services are to be done in accordance with the instruc- tions of the Water Authority.

The Water Authority whilst consulting the wishes of the consumer, as far as practicable, reserves the right to determine finally all matters concerning the construction or alteration of services, such as the size of the connection to be given, the diameter of the pipe to be used, the manner in which it is to be laid, and the number, size, pattern and position of the taps.

16. Notice of intention to construct a new service, or to alter or extend any existing one must be given to the Water Authority by filling in a printed form which may be obtained, on application, at the Office of the Water Authority. This notice (form () must be delivered at the said Office, address- ed to the Water Authority, at least three clear days before work is commenced.

17. All new services or alterations, extensions, or repairs to existing services must be carried out to the satisfaction of the Water Authority. Pipes and fittings of approved quality only are to be used. Samples may be seen at the Office of the Water Authority.

18. No pipes, valves, or other fittings forming part of a service shall be covered up until they have been inspected and tested by the Water Authority. As soon as a service has been inspected and approved, it will be connected with the water-works, and the supply will commence. The connection will be made by the Water Authority's servants only.

   19. Whenever the owner or occupier of any tenement wishes that a service should be made, altered, extended or repaired at his cost by the Water Authority, he must make application by filling in a printed form (form D), obtainable on application at the Office of the Water Authority.

As soon as possible after the receipt of this form, duly filled in and signed, the Water Authority will cause the premises to be inspected and will arrange with the owner or occupier as to the manner of construction of the proposed service.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 9TH OCTOBER, 1903.

1479

     20. The applicant for a service having signified to the Water Authority his acquiescence in the final arrangement proposed by the Water Authority, the service will be constructed accordingly.

21. The Water Authority does not undertake to restore any ornamental floors, wall-surfaces or other decorations, which may be disturbed by the work.

     22. The Water Authority will not be responsible for the maintenance or repair of any service constructed by the same, after the date of the account for construction.

     23. The Water Authority, notwithstanding that its requirements have been complied with as regards services, does not hold itself liable for any damage that may arise in premises by bursting or overflowing. Nor will the Water Authority by any permission or act extend its responsibility beyond the main-pipes in the public thoroughfares.

     24. All pipes, used in the construction, alteration, extension or repair of services must be of cast- iron of approved thickness and quality or wrought-iron, both to be coated with bituminous composition, or galvanized wrought-iron piping (the latter, however, is not recommended).

     25. Wrought-iron service pipes must be of the quality known as "Best Water Piping" and must be of the following weights :-

26. Cast-iron pipes must be substantially joined with lead and yarn. Wrought-iron pipes must have screwed joints and sockets.

27. Lead pipes will only be permitted in new services when not in direct communication with any principal or rider-main or when the water which passes through them cannot be used for drinking or cooking purposes (down-pipes to water closets or overflow pipes from cisterns, for example): Provided always that owners of premises which are now provided with lead-services will not be compelled to remove them unless in the opinion of the Water Authority they are too weak, or otherwise defective.

     28. Every service must be provided with a strong gland stop-cock with solid bottom, either of brass or of cast-iron (if of cast-iron, the plug to be asbestos-packed), or with a screw-down stop-cock with a loose-valve; or, in the case of services larger than 2′′ in internal diameter, with a sluice or slide-valve.

The stop-cock or valve must be fixed under the public foot-path where there is one, and as near to the tenement as practicable, and must be provided with a cast-iron cover and lid so that it may at all times be accessible; or, the stop-cock may be fixed above ground in the tenement immediately inside the door in some readily accessible place.

29. All draw-off taps are to be of the pattern known as "screw down," or of such other pattern at the Water Authority may approve. Patterns of the taps may be seen at the Office of the Water Authority.

     30. Every cistern, to which water is supplied from the water-works, must be provided with an "Equilibrium" ball-valve of approved pattern, and the ball-valve must be so adjusted as to close the supply when the water-level in the cistern is two inches below the edge or overflow if there be one. A brass screw-down stop-cock must be fixed behind each ball-valve.

     31. The overflow pipes of all cisterns must be brought out to the outside of the building and shall terminate in some conspicuous position, so that any leakage may be easily detected. No overflow pipe from any cistern shall on any account be connected with any drain or sewer or with the waste pipe of any bath or sink or with the overflow from any other cistern. Each cistern shall have a separate overflow pipe.

32. All water-closets must be provided with automatic water-preventing flush tanks of approved pattern and under no circumstances shall the service be in direct communication with any water-closet pan, latrine or urinal. In every such case a cistern or tank shall be interposed so as to prevent the possibility of any return of foul liquid or gas to the service or mains.

33. The outlet of every draw-off tap shall be in some open and conspicuous place, so that leakage may be easily detected; and on no account shall the outlet be below the high-water level in any cistern, tank, or other vessel into which the tap delivers.

1480

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 9TH OCTOBER, 1903.

  The inlet of every bath or lavatory basin must be separate and distinct from the outlet, and the inlet must be at the top of the bath.

34. No overflow pipe shall be altered without the permission of the Water Authority.

  35. In case of any defect being discovered in the service to any tenement, the Water Authority shall serve notice upon the owner or occupier of such tenement in the form Ein Schedule 1.

  36. The notice' to be given under section 5 of the Water Works Ordinance, 1903, shall be in the form Fin Schedule 1.

  37. All notices required to be given or sent under the said Ordinance shall be issued under the hand of the Water Authority and shall be served either by delivering the same to the person or persons to whom they are addressed or by leaving the same at the residence or place of business of such person or persons or by leaving the same on the tenement or tenements to which such notices relate.

  38. No water passing into, through, or upon, or near any tenement from the water-works shall be misused or wasted.

  39. Should it come to the knowledge of the Water Authority that the water supplied from the water-works is being wasted or misused from any cause whatever within any tenement, the Water Authority may forthwith disconnect the service supplying such tenement from the water-works and shall not re-connect such service until he is satisfied that reasonable means have been taken to prevent such waste or misuse.

40. No water shall be drawn from the water-works except from public fountains and house services in the manner laid down in these regulations without the written permission of the Water Authority, except in the case of fire when water may be obtained from the fire hydrants fixed in the streets for that purpose.

$24 for every additional 300 tons.

The above scale is for twelve months. For six months six-twelfths of the fee will be charged, for nine months nine-twelfths, and so on, at the rate of one-twelfth for each month; but no fee is to be less in amount than three-twelfths. In all cases of new steam-ships, or of steam-ships coming under survey for a Passenger Certificate for the first time a full twelve months' fee must be paid, notwith- standing that a certificate for twelve months may not be required, and in no case of an incomplete declaration will less than three-twelfths be charged.

The fee paid in accordance with the foregoing scale covers any number of visits that a Surveyor may require to make before he is able to grant his declaration, as well as the inspection of the lights and fog signals, and of the marking of the vessel, which inspection must be made by the Surveyor before he can grant his declaration. The fee does not, however, apply to, or include, any inspection of lights, fog signals, or marking made subsequently to the granting of the declaration.

The above fee does not cover any service under the Chinese Passengers' Acts, or measurement for tonnage.

A special survey is to be deemed to be a survey requiring more than two visits by a Government Surveyor or Surveyors, or a survey in cases in which from age or any other circumstances there are reasonable grounds for doubting the seaworthiness of the vessel. Where the case requires unusual attention and occupies an unusual amount of the Surveyor's time the higher fee of $60 and upwards will be charged, according to the special circumstances of the case and the number of visits made.

    Where a declaration has been granted for a steam-ship under this Ordinance, the survey under the Chinese Passengers' Acts will be made on payment of half the usual fee mentioned above. The fee paid in accordance with the above scale covers the inspection of the lights and fog signals, and the marking of the vessel, made at the time of survey under the Chinese Passengers' Acts. It does not, however, apply to, or include, any inspection of lights, fog signals, or marking, made subsequently to such survey.

    The fee for survey under the Chinese Passengers' Acts does not cover any survey of a steam-ship for a Passenger Certificate under this Ordinance, or measurement for tonnage, or inspection of crew

spaces.

    Travelling expenses (if any) and subsistence expenses (if any) due according to the scale authori- zed by the Governor will be charged in addition to the fees.

Titles Ordinance, 1902, (No. 47 of 1902).

WHEREAS it is expedient to repeal the New Territories Titles Ordinance, 1902.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:--

F. H. MAY,

dinance No. 47 of 1902.

1616

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1903.

Objects and Reasons.

The object is to repeal the New Territories Titles Ordinance because it has become apparent that the system of title by registration thereby established is unworkable and because it is found that the system if it could be brought into operation would clash with the Land Court Ordinance, 1900, in a manner contemplated neither by its framer nor by the Legislature when it passed the Ordinance.

The conflict with the Land Court Ordinance arises from the interpretation given in the New Territories Titles Or- dinance to the expressions "Customary land" and "Cus- tomary landholder".

The effect of that interpretation may be to override section 14 of the Land Court Ordinance and to confer "title" in a manner never intended and impossible to permit.

It was

never intended and cannot be permitted that title to land in the New Territories should be acquired otherwise than by grant from the Crown as in the case of land in the other parts of the Colony but it is open to question whether the effect of, the interpretation clause of the New Territories Titles Ordinance is not to vest in the Land Court the power to confer title independently of grant from the Crown. It was never intended that the Land Court should have power to do more than investigate claims to land and report thereon to the Governor. It was always intended and that intention still prevails that the ultimate right to grant or to refuse a title should rest with the Governor- -an intention which clearly appears in sec- tion 14 of the Land Court Ordinance, 1900.

No inconvenience will thereby be caused to anyone because no land has yet been brought under the operation of the Ordinance.

H. S. BERKELEY, Attorney General,

"Provided also, that two members sitting together shall form a quorum and in case of a difference of opinion the decision of the senior member sitting shall prevail".

24. Wherever in the Principal Ordinance or in any General bye-law or rule or regulation made thereunder the expres- definition. son officer of the Board" or "servant of the Board " appears the same shall be read and construed to mean "officer or servant of the Sanitary Department".

Objects and Reasons.

The object of this amending Ordinance is to effect cer- tain amendments in the Principal Ordinance principally on the recommendation of the Sanitary Board.

The practical working of the Ordinance has shown these amendments to be necessary. An amendment is also made in the Arbitration clauses by which power is conferred upon the arbitrators, provided for in the Ordinance, to take into their consideration, in determining the amount of com- pensation which may be payable in any given case, the fact that the rental of the premises is enhanced by reason of its being overcrowded; and by direction of the Secre- tary of State amendments are made to various sections of the Principal Ordinance by which a Sanitary Department is created and the Principal Civil Medical Officer is consti- tuted its Administrative Head.

In order to give effect to the Board's recommendation a new definition of the expression "external air" is submit- ted to Council. The Board having reported that section 48 of the Principal Ordinance as it stands is unworkable, that section is repealed by the Amending Ordinance and has been recast to accord with the Board's recommend- ation. The object is to expedite and facilitate legal action in case of overcrowding. The present procedure is too cumbrous.

1621

1622

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1903.

A similar course is taken with respect to sections 153 and 154 of the Principal Ordinance; and on the recom- mendation of the Board sub-sections (3.) and (4.) of section 175 are transposed in the Amending Ordinance.

The Amending Ordinance also deletes the last clause (the proviso) of section 46 of the Principal Ordinance. This has been done on the recommendation of the Sani- tary Board because as the section stands it is found to prevent any finality in determining the number of per- sons who may inhabit a floor as by altering the size of a cubicle a man may at present increase or decrease the number of persons allowed. The proviso was a concession made at the time when it was believed that every third house would be taken down and lateral windows in cubicles thereby provided.

""

The words " room andenbicle heretofore having in many instances the same meaning will for the future have a distinct meaning and be dealt with under separate sections of the Ordinance, and by the amendments made at the Board's suggestion a "cubicle" (i.e., a sub-division of a room) as soon as it has a window one-tenth of the flour area becomes a room The amendments therefore do not prevent 46 cubicles in future houses but only prevent the existence of windowless cubicles except where such cubicles exist in rooms which are themselves sufficiently lighted.

A REPORT ON QUEEN'S COLLEGE.

MIDSUMMER, 1903.

EDUCATION DEPARTMENT,

HONGKONG, 25th September, 1903.

SIR,I have the honour to forward a report on Queen's College submitted to the Governing Body by the Examiners.

2. It appears to the Governing Body that the teaching at Queen's College should be so organized that a boy who has succeeded in reaching the upper Classes ought (with reasonable diligence and ability) to have acquired a fair knowledge of Chinese, a reasonably good knowledge of English, as it is spoken and written and printed, and ought to be able with considerable facility to translate from one language to the other. These attainments will be to him, in after life, of much greater value than a superficial knowledge of Algebra and Euclid, for instance, or long lists of tributary rivers, &c., stored away in his memory, till time effaces them.

3. Knowing Chinese and English, the literatures of both countries lie open before him if he pushes his studies, as opportunity offers, after he leaves the College.

4. The Governing Body do not undervalue special subjects but speak only of relative importance.

5. The Governing Body can well appreciate the difficulty some masters, who do not know very much English themselves, must have in imparting their know- ledge of that language to the boys in the lower part of the school. But speaking generally, they agree with the recommendations of the Examiners.

6. The question of suitable Readers is a difficult one, and the Governing Body is of opinion that it might be referred to the Committee now sitting to consider the teaching of English among other subjects taken in connection with the Oxford Local examinations.

7. Will you kindly authorise payment of the Examiners' fees.

I have the hoyour to be,

Sir,

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1903.

SIR, AS requested in C. S. O. 4452/03, we inspected Queen's College during the last fortnight of the summer term, and have now the honour to submit the following report.

METHOD OF CONDUCTING THE EXAMINATION.

The examination was held, by the desire of the Government, in a different way from usual. It has hitherto been an examination of the Upper School only (Classes I, II, and III,) and has been held at the end of the winter term in con- nection with the Christmas examinations; prizes and promotions depending upon it. It thus involved the examination of every individual scholar in every one of the subjects studied by him, and an exact comparison of the papers in each subject, in order that the order of merit in each subject and in each Class might be ascer- tained. The labour of such an undertaking, dealing as it must with more than a thousand papers, is considerable. It does not leave much time to the examiners for such considerations as the efficiency of the Staff, the discipline, or the nature or the methods of instruction. Indeed, the nature of the examination tended to prevent the examiners from casily considering these vital points. Their first duty was to declare which boy had best assimilated the educational diet provided for him. That diet might be unwholesome; and the healthier instinct the one that turned from it. But, however unwillingly, the examiners were compelled to award praise and blame on the results before them, after which any criticism in a contrary sense that they might make, would be apt to fall unheeded.

Further the system was objectionable, in that, while the examiners were not put in the best position for doing that which they were best qualified to do, they were not the persons best qualified for the task actually given them. However painstaking and skilful an outside examiner may be, the best judge to decide who deserves prizes and promotions will still be the master who has had the Class under his eye day after day throughout the year. And it will often happen that the decision of the examiners will stultify the predictions of the master, and so inevitably disable his judgment in the eyes of his scholars.

The examiners have in fact hitherto attempted to draw up the school in a graduated order of merit. The duty is analogous to that of arranging troops in review order, first the taller and then the shorter. Such a duty in the latter case is best performed by those who are closest in touch with the men, and not by the Inspecting Officer. He has other and more widely important duties to fulfil. He has to see that such exercises as are performed are smartly performed: but he also considers the intrinsic value of the exercises, and it is his business to make sure that they are the most useful that can be devised.

Impressed by these views the examiners have paid little attention to 'places and marks,' but have set themselves to enquire whether the work of the school is laid upon the soundest possible lines, and whether what is in fact being done, is being done in the best possible way.

From this altered view of their task, it followed that the examination could no longer be limited to the Upper School. Not all boys in the Lower School will rise to the Upper; but the Upper has with few exceptions passed through the Lower School. And it is found that the effects of bad teaching in the lower Classes are not easily got rid of. Moreover the Lower School is, speaking broadly, staffed by Chinese masters, and the Upper School by English masters; and, further, there seems a tendency to place the least experienced Chinese masters in the lowest Classes. It seemed to the Examiners that if it came to a choice between inspecting the Upper and Lower Schools, the latter could less safely be neglected. In order to cope with the extra work thus imposed upon them, their number has been in- creased from two to three.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1903.

It was considered advisable to hold the Inspection at Midsummer instead of at Christmas as in former years, in order to interfere as little as possible with the Christmas examination for promotions and prizes.

THE ARRANGEMENT OF CLASSES.

The school is divided into Classes, numbered from I to VIII, of which the first three constitute the Upper, and the rest the Lower School. Each Class is divided into two, three, or four Divisions, distinguished by letters A, B, C, D. The Divisions of a Class do the same work; but they are otherwise quite independent, cach under its own master.

Promotions take place twice a year as a rule in the Lower School, and once a year in the Upper School. The top boys go from Division A of one Class into Division A of the next. The number of scholars in a Division varies between 20 and 60, reckoning by the average attendance.

The great majority of the boys are Chinese, but there are also a number of Portuguese, Indians and Eurasians, with a very few English. The Headmaster has, since the last inspection, given up the two special Classes in the Upper School for non-Chinese. The Headmaster does not identify himself with any Class or Division, but exercises supervision over all.

RESULTS ATTAINED IN THE VARIOUS SUBJECTS.

The inspection (which lasted about a fortnight) included the examination of individual boys, the inspection of note books, and a study of the methods employed by the masters. Below are given the conclusions we have drawn, arranged under the different subjects.

Colloquial English.-In order to be able to make a more thorough investigation of the results obtained in this subject, we confined ourselves for the most part to an examination of a selection of 5 boys in each Division, so chosen as fairly to represent it. In Class VIII, representing 6 months to a year's work, a fair beginning seemed to have been made; and the boys understood a number of sentences relating to their work, such as "Put away books," "Clean your slates." The master gave such orders in English, though he made the mistake of translating them into Chinese immediately afterwards. We did not find any attempt made to teach the boys to do the talk- ing till much higher Classes were reached. We regret that the colloquial acquired in Classes VII, VI, V and IV by boys who have presumably been studying from 2 to 5 years by no means shewed a sufficiently rapid improvement. In fact only in IV A under a European master did the boys begin to talk a little. All we could get was a Chinese version of English sentences spoken to them by us.

To give examples of yery general faults, in Class VI A., the master was still giving the orders "Put away your slates" and "Stand up" in Chinese, in V B none of 4 boys asked knew the names of the four seasons.

In the Upper School we took the boys out on the verandah and asked them to describe what they saw in the streets and shops before them. Except in Classes I and II there was little attempt at conversing. We noticed that boys in a Class taught by an English master were much more willing to make an attempt than those in a Class under the direction of a Chinese master.

In the Lower School there was a general unwillingness to attempt to say anything. No doubt this was partly due to nervousness. Colloquial is a difficult subject to teach; but when every lesson can be made a lesson in colloquial, we cannot help thinking that much of the inability to speak or understand English is due to the fact that the Chinese masters employ Chinese and not English, when giving directions connected with the ordinary routine work. We have no wish to question the zeal of the Chinese masters; they appeared to be carrying out to the best of their ability a very difficult task, but in the Lower School, Chinese as a medium of communication between master and boy was, as we have said, far too

common.

What is sometimes called the New Method, the Gouin, and other related systems, are now almost universally employed in France and Germany and very generally in England, but are apparently unknown or not approved of at the Col- lege, as means of teaching colloquial English.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1903.

Composition including Handwriting, Spelling and Dictation.-Original com- position in English is offered for examination in the Upper School. The teaching of Colloquial, Handwriting, and Spelling in the Lower School forms a course of preparation for it.

In Class I, "The Stocks as a Punishment for Highway Robbery" was set as an Essay. It was expected that about one page of foolscap or 200 words would be written. In marking these papers our attention was principally confined to the language used, no marks being deducted for weakness of arrangement nor for lack of ideas so long as the matter was germane to the subject. At the conclusion of what represents an eight years' course of study of English we expected, not absolute correctness of idiom, but an absence of gross grammatical mistakes-much the same standard in fact as is attained in the composition of Latin in Public Schools. There too, the course has occupied about eight years; though as Public School boys have not the inestimable advantage of hearing Latin spoken daily, the test is very favourable to Queen's College. Under this test no paper containing more than 6. gross mistakes in 200 words could be passed. Out of 63 papers corrected, 19 passed with credit, 19 passed, 25 failed. Of the last, 1'1 or 18 per cent. of the total num- ber were very bad. Considering the Class as a whole some excellent work done at the top is counterbalanced by the performances of boys, who should apparently have hardly reached the Upper School at all, much less the top Class.

In support of this view we attach papers (see Appendix) selected quite at random from the first 19, and the last 11. The first 19 papers are divided almost equally between Divisions A and B, but the last 11 are all in Division B.

Certain blunders are so common throughout the Upper School, that we feel it should be not impossible to trace them to a common source and then stop them. A notable example is the use and abuse of the word "shamne" and its derivatives. It will hardly be believed that of 63 papers corrected in Class I, no less than 20 contained these and kindred mistakes "will never be ashame" (this form alone recurred in 14 papers) "cause him much ashamed", "make ashame on the sufferer", &c., &c. Another very general mistake is failure to balance the tenses of verbs in a sentence correctly, especially in conditional sentences, where 'has' or 'had' is needed in the apodosis. "I will not dare to do what he had done", "If the Government do not punish the offenders, the people could not be safe."

In Class II the subject for composition was a letter, the recipient of which was to be informed that there was "some talk of increasing the time devoted to Chinese studies in the schools of the Colony," the writer giving his own views. (This was a very popular subject: some original views were developed. Incidentally it may be mentioned that a very large majority were in favour of the increase, the dissen- tients being non-Chinese with few exceptions.) On correcting the papers we found the greatest inequality in them and in order to come to some definite con- clusion on this point we shewed them to a lady who has had many years' experience as mistress of a school under the London School Board. She kindly classified them for us as follows:-

This classification corresponded sufficiently closely with our own estimate. Here again there is a long but very feeble 'tail.' It is obvious that in a Class representing a year out of the school life there should not be a difference represented by four years in the attainments of the first and last dozen scholars. As it stands the Class reaches the Fifth Standard. It should reach the Sixth Standard, and would do so, were it not for the deficiencies of a score or more of boys who should never have been admitted into it.

In Class III a short story was read to fifteen boys selected by the examiners as representing the 3 Divisions. Eight gave the sense of it correctly; the rest failed through inability to follow it, though it was delivered several times over very slowly and distinctly. Only one out of the eight was in Division C: thus Divisions A and B passed 7 out of 10 which is creditable, and Division C failed utterly.

1628

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1903.

Writing, Spelling, and Dictation in the Lower School were on the whole good, especially the Handwriting, which was generally speaking very good throughout the school. Many mistakes in Dictation were made in some Divisions of the Lower School, but others did very well, VI C, and VI B, for instance.

Reading. This subject was on the whole well done. In Class I the boys read scenes from Macbeth. The various characters were distributed among the Class, and were sustained with intelligence, and very creditably. In the Lower School there is a tendency to slur the final consonants, though otherwise the pronunciation and delivery were good. But we have to point out that the system under which the reading is taught in the Lowest Classes is most unsatisfactory: A distinction is made between reading and the meaning of the passage read. The process appears to be that the boys are first taught the sound of the words, and at a later date are taught a Chinese translation of the passage which whey have read. Instruction in this Chinese version moreover does not keep pace with instruction in reading, so that on asking how much the boys had prepared, me were met with the answer:-The class has read to (say) page 60, but the treaning has only been explained up to page 40. Reading and explanation were seated as different subjects. This distinction a pears to us to be foolish and thould be abolished. Chinese boys are only too willing to memorize instead of trying to understand, and it can be of no service to any boy to be able to repeat certain sounds, without understanding in the least what those sounds mean.

When taking a new lesson, many of the Chinese masters do not attempt to explain the matter to the boys beforehand, and so create an interest in it. The master in Class V B was an exception; he briefly explained what the new lesson was about, so that the boys when they began had some idea of what they were going to read.

The reading books appear to be unsuitable. The stories contained in them are not very interesting, and deal with subjects with which a Chinese boy is unfami- liar. Reading Books suited to local needs are no doubt badly wanted.

Geography and History.-A Committee is at present considering the methods of teaching these subjects in the Colony, and we do not think it necessary to make detailed criticisms upon the courses of study. It must however be pointed out that the necessity of studying the periods and countries chosen for the Oxford Local Examinations every year, has the effect of making the teaching disjointed and fragmentary. For instance the teaching of Geography in the Upper School this year is confined to Europe (Class III), England and Wales (Class II), and India (Class I). A boy might, as it seems to us, pass through the school without knowing anything about some countries, while his mind was packed with details about others of no more importance. Similarly unless a regular course of instruction in History is laid down, the know- ledge of a boy who has passed steadily through his Classes will probably suffer from want of continuity. He might take up the Norman period in Class III, the Hanoverian period in Class II, and the Norman period again for the Oxford Local in Class I. There is moreover a subdivision of Classes to suit the needs of the candidates for this examination, which must be disorganising to the or- dinary school work.

Geography. The subject is first studied in Class VI by the rather old fashioned and unattractive method of teaching "definitions," which are committed to memory. An island is a piece of land entirely surrounded by water. Example, the Isle of Wight." The subject should surely be first attacked by beginning with the Geography of Hongkong, and all the more because from the school windows nearly every kind of geographical features-isthmus, bay, strait, peninsula, mountain, valley, watershed-can be seen.

In VI C the subject was a failure: out of 37 boys, 21 replied "No" when asked if they had ever seen an island. In VI B only 4 boys knew what a harbour was. VI A i and VI A did better. A few boys were able to describe

" the position of the Pacific Ocean in relation to Hongkong. Asia is studied in Class V B. Here again 9 boys said they had never seen an island. It appeared that interest in the study was not raised by bringing it into relation

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1993.

with facts observed out of school. For instance, every boy must have seen the mail steamers which enter and clear the port every few days. But the great majority were unable to shew on a map where they come from and whither they are bound. The study of China in Classes IV B and C was much better, doubtless owing to the fact that the Chinese masters were themselves more interest- ed in the subject; in IV A, on the other hand, where the master is a European, only a very few boys were able to give a reply to the question "What is a treaty port?" although in other subjects this Division was considerably the strongest of the three. Europe is taught in Class IV. No doubt the subject is a hard one for Chinese masters. Nevertheless they should endeavour not to solve the difficulty by teaching mere lists of names to their scholars. And some omissions seem hardly excusable. Out of 4 boys asked in III B, two said that Gibraltar belonged to Spain, one to England, and one to Portugal. Few boys in III knew what the source of a river was. On the other hand, the general nature of the Governments of England, France, Russia, Germany, was well known. Class IV A under an English- man shewed a very different state of affairs. There alone we obtained some sort of a description of the physical features of Switzerland, and an intelligent deduction from the well-known large sale of Swiss milk of the fact that that country contains much pasture. The Geography lessons in Class II (C and B) appeared to suffer from similar defects of method. It is a significant fact that the tributaries on the right bank of the Thames "Kennet, Wey, Mole and Derwent" were very generally known by the scholars (though not by their examiners), but no idea could be elicited as to the nature of the scenery along the banks. A wall-picture of a hay- making scene-brick farm-house, wagons, country-lane---would have taught so much more than that barren list could. In Class II 4 a very intelligent apprecia- tion of the connection between the coal fields and the neighbouring manufacturing centres was elicited. The physical nature of the country was well understood. Class I took India. The master of I B objected to some of the questions asked, on the ground that they were hardly Geography. And yet it is hard to see how India can be profitably studied by a class of young men for a year without considering these and kindred matters. The truth appears to be that the Oxford Local, in requiring a very detailed knowledge, assumes a general knowledge which cannot safely be assumed in the case of Chinese students. In Class I A, 13 boys out of 21 passed; and in Class I B only 17 out of 33. The questions asked were:

1. What makes the North-West Frontier important to India ? 2. From what part of India do the Hongkong Police mostly come? 3. What was the Indian Mutiny? Did it affect Madras?

4. What are the Native states?

(Fairly correct answers to the 1st, 2nd and 4th questions or to the 3rd and one other gave a pass.)

History. History is correctly taught in Class I, by the means of well con- sidered dictated notes. We did not set a paper, but looked through one set by the The result was good, but the tendency of the boys was to depend too much on the notes, and to reproduce them by memory.

master.

We heard an interesting lesson on the reign of John by the master of III A. It might have been thought somewhat discursive, but we are not prepared to condemn this as a fault. A great difficulty in teaching History is to make the subject sufficiently interesting to Chinese boys.

Translation. (Chinese to English, English to Chinese.) --The Lower School was examined in these subjects vira voce, the upper portion by means of set papers. It was difficult to elicit much from the Lower School; a few simple sentences or words were set for translation into Chinese, but the knowledge of English in this part of the school is so limited, that it seemed useless to set unseen sentences for translation from Chinese into English. Many of the boys were ignorant of what one would im- agine that every boy would know. The majority asked were unable to translate cor- rectly into Chinese the phrase "The Governor of Hongkong"; only 2 boys, out of four Classes to whom the question was put, knew the English equivalent for the Chinese R(Registrar General). In one Class eight boys were asked to write down the Chinese for "It will not rain": half of them wrote When asked, the boys admitted that the phrase had no meaning in Chinese;

1629

but inasmuch as it was word for word the equivalent of the English words, they appeared to think that though meaningless, it was in some peculiar way, a tran- slation.

The Upper School was set short papers in these subjects. Three passages from a Chinese newspaper were set for translation into English. This paper In Classes was done by 242 boys, and was on the whole done very badly. I and II a boy was considered to have passed if he made a fair attempt. at two passages, and succeeded in translating them in such a way that the meaning would be intelligible to a person who had not seen the original. A boy in Class III was considered to have passed if he understood one passage, and did not make more than four gross blunders in translating it into English. Judged according to this standard in Classes I and II 21 boys passed, and 117 boys failed to pass, of whom 77 sent in exercises which were quite worthless. In Class III, 55 boys attempted the translation into English and 7 passed; 48 failed, of whom 26 sent in work which was worthless. Translation would appear to be little practised in the school. Many boys are unable to transliterate the commonest characters. The character for instance appears as Ga, Gar, and Car, while

appears under an infinite number of forms; Chuk, Chirk, Chur, Churk, Chak, etc. The simplest titles are misunderstood: LI KA CH'EOK, the well-known Official in Canton, is variously described as a Viceroy, a General, an Admiral, an Ambas- sador, a Corporal and a Policeman. H. E. the Viceroy of Canton was usually spoken of as Mr. SAM. The failure of the boys was due as much to their inability to write correct English as to their ignorance of written Chinese. Few shewed themselves able to write three consecutive lines in English without at least one gross blunder. It is needless to multiply examples of this; the 8th boy in the school who has presumably been learning English for some time, and who (if one may judge from the exercise he sent in) is quite unable to write a sentence in correct Chinese, composes the following sentence in English "The two generals are also received from the Japanese King of stars," meaning to say "the two generals also received stars from the Japanese King." Papers were also set for translation from English into Chinese. In Class I A B 10 boys wrote correct Chinese, but the Chinese written by four boys out of this number, though correct, had so little relation to the English set, that it was worthless considered as translation.

Classes II and III did better than Class I, the English passages set were easier. Too many common characters are however written wrong, and the style was seldom good. The almost universal use of for the plural should be discouraged. Many common English words were not understood, e.g., Pirate, Junk, Fort, Tear off, etc. It is curious that only 15 boys out of 106 knew the Chinese for the Bogue Forts. Class I B. failed absolutely: of the 43 boys in this Division 36 sent in exercises which were quite worthless. They appeared to be neither able to understand the English nor to write Chinese. We consider that the teaching of translation from English into Chinese and vice versa, and the teaching of Chinese at Queen's College is unduly neglected. In our opinion there is no boy in the school at present who could make a translation of a despatch or petition from Chinese to English, which could be accepted without very careful checking.

A Chinese boy who enters Queen's College knowing nothing of his own written language is not likely to learn any, while the boy who enters knowing some- thing about it, is, under the present system, extremely likely to forget what he already knows.

Mathematics.--The Arithmetic was good on the whole, but rather slow, though some improvement was apparent in the higher Classes.

The importance of smartness in addition to accuracy should be impressed up- on the scholars. Their slowness was sometimes caused by the desire for unnecessary neatness, and by using their rulers too often. Discipline was excellent throughout, with this modification that there was some 'cribbing' among the lower Classes. It is satisfactory to note however that this fault diminishes in the higher Classes and disappears about Class IV.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 20TH NOVEMBER, 1903.

Algebra was offered by Classes I, II, and III. The various Divisions of these Classes shewed good results on the whole, though Class II was rather weaker than the others. Several boys in Class I failed to find an extraordinary, though simple, solution to an equation. Types of such should be more frequently given.

Euclid. Offered by Classes I and II. Questions re axioms and postulates were considered by most boys to be answered by quoting the number in the book, only about 15 per cent. answering properly. A few did not understand the questions. The proposition set was done fairly well in Class I but not so well in Class II.

It is unnecessary in our opinion for the scholars to be able to quote from memory the numbers of the propositions referred to.

Perhaps the difference in the quality of Euclid as compared with Algebra is due to the greater knowledge of English required; but we think that the Geometry might be improved, as there is no want of the mathematical faculty among the boys. Practical examples frequently given of the definitions, axioms, &c. might improve their conceptions of this subject.

About 20% of Class I solved an easy rider, but most either made a false as- sumption or missed out the important step in the reasoning.

Mensuration.-Offered by Class I, was very good, though some confused the volume of a cone with that of a cylinder.

The course of study appears to be perfectly well suited to the College, and the methods of teaching, subject to the foregoing remarks, appear to be good.

Discipline and Organization.-Except in the matter of promoting boys who do not deserve promotion, the organization of the thousand boys of the College is very good. We say this however with a knowledge that the less experienced Chinese masters are to be put under an English Normal Master, and that the Staff teaching Chinese is to be strengthened. The discipline of the school is excellent, with however the exception of one important point. The importance of making civil replies is not sufficiently impressed on the scholars; and this applies to the majority of the Classes. When a boy is asked by an examiner what his age is, he might well be taught to reply "I'm fifteen, Sir," and not to blurt out a blunt "fifteen'

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS.

In conclusion, we have the following general recommendations to make.

Colloquial English.-This should be (what it certainly is not at present) the most important instrument for teaching English. From the outset boys should be taught to talk to the master and to each other. That this can be done is beyond dispute. If it were done, we should not find that boys after 3 or 4 years' education. in English were unwilling to reply to the most simple questions.

History and Geography.-It is highly desirable that a syllabus should be carefully thought out and laid down, so as to extend throughout the school without variation from year to year.

Mathematics. This is much the strongest subject, and we recommend that less time be devoted to it and more to the teaching of English, until the deficiencies of that subject are improved.

Reading.-Reading is studied in the Lower Classes as it were under two heads, reading without and reading with, a comprehension of the meaning of what is read. This system is quite indefensible and should be amended.

Chinese.---The teaching of Chinese should be altogether reorganized.

Organization. The less competent Chinese masters should be placed under the supervision of English masters.

Appendix.

The Storks as a punishment for highway robbing.

By stocks we mean a frame with two holes in which the feet of offenders are closed. This is a sort of punishment against those who are guilty of crime. The object of such penalty, which can be made really useful, is to cause the criminals to feel ashamed of having done a wrong thing, and to purify them from the guilt of having looked on such a crime. Those who steal something from others or violate the laws, are often put into stocks and carried to the place where they have committed the theft and there the people may laugh and make a ridicle of them. This chastisement is necessary, as those who have been imprisoned will immediately forget what they have suffered after being set free and will commit further offence, but this condemnation will make the people recognize their face as soon as they are in sight and serve as an example and a warning that will be useful in preventing them from assimulating such faults. In this way, those who have suffered such penance must of course fear and hate it. To put it quite shortly, this chastisement should be preventive and everybody ought to leave off committing the crimes which lead to this disaster. This is the way for punishing an offender or thief in Hongkong, China and Siam.

The Stocks as a punishment for highway robbery.

The stock is used to bound the thieves and the robbers from their hand to feet. The Chinese Custom is usualy with this punishment. I saw several men were covered on his neck with the stock in Canton, and when they finished to covered by the stock; they also put into the prison. I saw a man was covered by the stock near Queen's Road last week for he robbed somebody's things in the highway; I suspected that the reason is used to give the people to look at him and cause him very shame and so he did not do this in hereafter. In this punishment is best to be imprisoned for if a man who put into prison that every person could not see him but if he was covered with the stock, and stood in the street etc; he is very shame than imprisoned. If a thief steals something and sentenced him to be stood in the street with the stock in his neck; I think he will willingly to be imprisoned and dislike to put the stock in his neck. If he put into prison for several days is better than the stock covered on the neck for several hours. It is very seldom with this punishment in Hongkong. In this way is really useful to take care the other people. I dare say no body shall be like this punishment.

Note. This essay was attempted by the 63 boys of Class I. In classifying the results 19 papers were marked as passed with credit, and 11 as very bad. Specimens selected entirely at randeni from these two classes are given here.

And whereas it appears to His Majesty that due facilities are given by the Government of Japan for recovering and apprehending seamen who desert from British Merchant ships in that country:

And whereas under Acticle XIV. of such Treaty it was provided that the stipulations therein contained for the recovery of deserters from the vessels of their respective countries should not apply to the subjects of the country where the desertion takes place :

And whereas it is desirable to repeal the said Order in Council of the 19th day of May, 1898 : Now therefore His Majesty, by virtue of the power vested in Him by the hereinbefore recited Sub-section (1) of Section 238 of "The Merchant Shipping Act, 1894," and by and with the advice of His Privy Council, is pleased to order and declare, and it is hereby ordered and declared, that from and after the publication hereof in the London Gazette, seamen not being slaves (and not being British subjects) who, within His Majesty's dominions, desert from ships belonging to subjects of His Majesty the Emperor of Japan shall be liable to be apprehended and carried on board their respective ships :

And His Majesty by virtue of the powers vested in Him by the provisions of Section 738 of "The Merchant Shipping Act, 1894," and by and with the advice of His Privy Council, is further pleased to order and declare that upon and after the publication hereof in the London Gazette the Order in Council made on the 19th day of May, 1898, and published in the London Gazette on the 20th day of May, 1898, shall be revoked and the same is hereby revoked accordingly :

The following Report on a Cattle Disease in the Colony of Hongkong is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 31st December, 1903.

1765

A. M. THOMSON, Acting Colonial Secretary.

A PRELIMINARY REPORT ON A CATTLE DISEASE IN THE COLONY OF HONGKONG.

GOVERNMENT PUBLIC MORTUARY,

HONGKONG, October 31st, 1903.

SIR,-We have the honour to submit the following Report for the information of His Excellency the Governor.

Since the year 1896, the Colony of Hongkong has suffered from the effects of an extremely fatal disease amongst its cattle. As to the existence of the disease prior to this date, we have no information.

In the year 1896, while the Colonial Veterinary Surgeon was absent on leave, a very fatal epidemic of disease broke out amongst the cattle belonging to the Dairy Farm Company at Pokfulum. This outbreak attracted considerable attention, and was the subject of investigation by many of the local medical men. Further outbreaks of apparently the same disease occurred during the years 1898, 1899, 1901 and 1902.

In addition to the existence of the disease at the Dairy Farm in Pokfulum, epidemics of a similar nature occurred in other Dairies, in the Kennedy Town Cattle Depôt, and in the New Territory.

From an examination of all official records at our disposal, of epidemics since 1896, the general consensus of opinion appears to be that the disease was Rinderpest.

No record of the symptoms and post-mortem appearances could be obtained.

Mr. WALKER, Manager of the Dairy Farm Company, has kindly placed his notes, taken during the progress of the various epidemics occurring at Pokfulum, at our disposal. These consist of temperature records with remarks thereon, symp- toms, and attempts made to procure immunity from the disease.

The following is a digest of Mr. WALKER's remarks. There was no loss of cattle until the year 1896. Reliable information as to the cause of the outbreaks was not ascertainable. He inclines to the opinion that food has something to do with the spread of the disease, and the introduction of infection. Straw, brought from the mainland, he believes to be the chief source of infection. From his notes of the various epidemics down to and including that of 1902, he is convinced that "the disease has been the same all through" and is that which is known to him as Rinderpest. His conclusions as to the identity of the disease during the different outbreaks are supported by the fact that he has never seen a recurrence of the disease in an animal which had taken the disease and got better, even although the animal in question was in direct contact with sick animals.

His description of the symptoms is briefly as follows:

 The initial symptom is a rise in temperature. The rise in temperature is very rapid. It may reach 105° F. or 106 F. in 24 hours. In milch cows, the secretion of milk was arrested almost immediately after the temperature began to rise. The animal still kept on feeding. In 2 or 3 days food was refused. A little later diarrhoea set in. The visible mucous membranes became reddened. A discharge, variable in amount, was visible from the eyes, nose and vagina. The animals "shiver" and have a staring coat. The diarrhoea was black and offensive. Its duration was 1 or 2 days. In mild cases the diarrhoea proceeds no further. In more severe cases blood appears in the fæces and the diarrhoea continues. The character of the continued diarrhoea is thin and watery, with flakes of mucous membrane, streaked with blood. The animal lies most of the time, the anus is in- flamed and raw, and frequently considerable straining is observed. At other times the fæces are passed unconsciously.

1766

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 31ST DECEMBER, 1903.

So far as the mouth is concerned, patches of the mucous membrane becoine inflamed and detached, leaving raw surfaces in a few European cattle-he has never observed this appearance in native cattle and only occasionally in half-breeds. Believing the disease to be Rinderpest, he followed the treatment generally found successful in South Africa. That is to say, he inoculated healthy animals with the defibrinated blood of recovered animals as a preventative and further carried out the same method in regard to sick animals as a curative. The general results of his treatment led him to believe in the efficacy of this method.

Mr. WATSON, Senior Inspector in Charge of the Kennedy Town Animals Depôt and Slaughter House, who has had many years' experience of native cattle, both in the Depot and the Island, and rendered us valuable assistance during the present investigation, made the following statement:-

That so far as he can see, the symptoms, etc., of the disease under consideration, are identical with those observed during the epidemics of past years.

Mr. COTTON, 1st class Inspector of Animals Depot and Slaughter House, Ken- nedy Town, who has had, at the instigation of the Government, the opportunity of coming in contact with sick animals during the past epidemics, and more particularly in the New Territory in 1899, states:-"That with reference to the present disease existing among cattle in the Depôt.........I have taken particular observations and failed to observe any different symptoms from those shown by the animals affected in the Hunghom Cattle Depôt and in the New Territory during the outbreak of the disease in 1899."

For further information in regard to reports to the Government, reference may be made to C.S.O.s 193 of 1899 (Extension), 85 and 691 of 1900, and C.O.D. 130

of 1901.

In 1902 a severe outbreak of the disease occurred at the Dairy Farm, Pokfulum. During this epidemic we both had an opportunity of investigating the disease. Symptoms were noted, post-mortem and simple bacteriological examinations were made, but owing to the prevalence at the time of a severe outbreak of Plague and the conduction of experiments on Plague in animals by Professor W. J. SIMPSON, it was found impossible to carry out a systematic examination. For details in regard to the symptomatology and post-mortem appearances met with at the Dairy Farm during this epidemic reference may be made to Appendix F. In Professor SIM- PSON'S Report on Plague Prevention in Hongkong mention is also made of this epidemic and its possible relation to Plague.

Since our arrival in the Colony early last year, post-mortem examinations have repeatedly been made on animals found dead in the different cattle depôts in the Colony and occasionally the lesions found by us resembled the disease under con- sideration. A microscopical examination of the blood and tissues was made in several instances and micro-organism was found similar to the one we are about to describe as having a causal relationship to the disease under consideration. the examinations made were only microscopical and the micro-organism seen by us presented no definite morphological peculiarities, we were unable, in the absence of biological and experimental data, to form an opinion as to its relation to the disease.

As

In June of this year an epidemic appeared among the cattle housed in the Kennedy Town Depôt. From the symptoms, post-mortem appearances and micros- copic examinations we were convinced that we had to deal with the same disease as at Pokfulum in 1902.

The commencement of this year's epidemic appeared to be a favourable oppor- tunity for further investigation of this disease. The occurrence of epizootics amongst the cattle all over the Colony in different years and at different seasons of the year, has been attended by serious loss to Hongkong. Cattle owners through- out the Colony have lost heavily. The residents of the Colony consuming butcher meat and milk have been affected. The loss in cattle has seriously interfered with farming in the New Territory, and should the establishment of a cattle raising industry in the New Territory become an accomplished fact, this disease will be a factor with which such an industry would have to reckon.

As has already been roted, the conclusion generally arrived at by those who have come in contact with the sick animals is that the disease which they had before them was Rinderpest. From our own preliminary examinations, however, the

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 31st DECEMBER, 1903.

appearances presented by the diseased animals-intra-vitam and post-mortem-differed from those usually regarded as pathognomonic for what is generally recognised as true Rinderpest. The absence of certain symptoms and the characteristic and constant post-mortem appearances coupled with the presence of a definite micro- organism in the blood and tissues have led us to the conclusion that the epizootic is something very different from Rinderpest, and required investigation.

                       investigation. Accord- ingly we requested the Government, through the medium of the Sanitary Board, to grant us such facilities as would enable us to do so. Permission having been got, the enquiry was commenced early in June, of the present year. In the first instance it was our int ntion to investigate this disease with a view towards its prevention. However on undertaking the enquiry we found so much of interest in regard to the symptomatology, pathology and bacteriology of the dis ase that we considered it advisable to make a preliminary report on these questions only. making this report we hope that we have so dealt with the disease as to show conclusively that the cattle epidemics here in Hongkong are not rinderpestic but of a different etiology. This report deals only with the question "What is the Disease?" The important questions as to the modes of infection, curative treat- ment, and immunity against the disease have not been considered by us at present. As such questions can only be tackled after a thorough knowledge of the pathogenesis of the disease,. we have left them to be dealt with at a future date.

In

At the commencement of our enquiry, the temperature of all the animals presented for slaughter at the Kennedy Town Cattle Depot was taken; all animals having a suspicious rise in temperature were at once isolated and placed under observation. The temperature of these animals was taken twice daily and symptoms as they presented themselves noted. Immediately the nature of the disease became evident the animals were quarantined in the old Tung Wah Mortuary, which is fitted up for segregation purposes. The condition and temperature of such animals were noted daily and on death occurring, a post-mortem examination was undertaken as soon as possible. This method of segregation of animals has been adopted by us since the commencement of the present enquiry and is still being carried on. This procedure was found necessary owing to the fact that the disease is most insidu- ous in its onset. It was a common occurrence to find an animal with a temper- ature of 106° F. and with no other manifestation of ill health. The method in addition was of advantage in that all cases of sickness were discovered and that no suspicion could arise as to the quality of neat sent out for consumption. It may be as well at this point to state that so far we have alsolutely no data as to the com- municability of the disease to man. Inspectors, boys and coolies who were daily in contact with the disease have so far enjoyed perfect health.

Up to the date of writing this report, 224 animals (experimental included) have been either infected or attempts have been made to induce infection. These animals consisted chiefly of bullocks. In connection with the particular species of animal affected it is important to note that during the course of this epidemic only one buffalo contracted the disease, but this coincidence may be accounted for by the fact that during the summer very few buffaloes have been brought into the Colony for slaughter.

The mortality amongst the affected animals averaged 70 per cent.

The disease as met with during our investigation, was in the majority of cases an acutely fatal one. Death usually occurred within a week. In other cases the disease was of a more chronic nature, death occurring 10-15 days after the com- mencement of the rise in temperature.

An

In those cases in which recovery took place after the disease had run a typical course, the temperature reached its normal figure in about three weeks. Appendix (A.) is attached giving full details in regard to the symptomatology of the disease. The chief characteristics regarding this are rise in temperature, diarrhoea of a mucoid and bloody character, rapid emaciation accompanied by great weakness and prostration. No lesions of the mouth, skin and feet have been observed. diarrhoea commences in the majority of cases two days after the temperature has reached its maximum-vide Temperature Charts appended.

The

 Post-mortem.The results are uniform, and characterised by congestion, in- flammation, ulceration and necrosis of the gastro-intestinal tract and by a hæmorrhagic condition of the visceral, deep and superficial lymphatic glands.

1767

1768

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 31ST DECEMBER, 1903.

Bacteriologically a micro-organism was invariably found in the blood, organs and tissues. It possesses the characteristic morphology, biology, and experimental effects which are detailed in Appendix.

Experimentally the investigation was limited to the question of the causal relationship of the micro-organism to the disease. That such a relationship exists is fully proved by the insemination of a pure culture of the micro-organism in question into a previously healthy animal and its subsequent contraction of the disease in typical form and with typical results.

For full data in regard to the post-mortem results and micro-organismal nature of the disease, reference may be made to Appendices attached.

The following is a comparative statement of the differences and resemblances between this disease and Rinderpest :-

RESEMBLANCES BETWEEN

This Disease and Rinderpest.

1. Rapid emaciation and weakness common to both.

2. Diarrhoea.

3. Intestinal lesions.

4. Hæmorrhagic lymphatic glands. This condition is constant in the disease under consideration. It is common in Rinderpest.

5. Cardiac petechiæ.

Our conclusions are as follows:-

1. The disease is a form of Hæmorrhagic Septicemia.

2. It has no connection with Rinderpest.

3. It is allied to Pasteurellosis.

Appendix A.

SYMPTOMS.

Preliminary Note.-There is a greater variation in temperature among Chinese cattle than among European. Taken per rectum it is found to vary between 99° F. and 102 F. The average normal temperature is found to be about 100.5° F. The normal temperature of European cattle is usually reckoned at 101.5° F.

Chinese cattle bear pain with greater fortitude than European cattle do. This seems to be due to their temperament and to the fact that they are less well-bred. Cattle are sometimes seen landed during rough weather with both hip-joints dislocated and extensive laceration of the adductor muscles of the thighs. When these animals are allowed to lie undisturbed, the temperature remains normal, the animal eats, drinks and ruminates, and the only thing to indicate that anything is the matter is a slightly quickened breathing.

Owing to the intimate association between Chinese cattle and their owners dom- estication is more thorough than in European breeds. Docility, obedience to, and familiarity with man are noteworthy of all Chinese cattle as we meet with them in Hongkong.

Symptoms-For convenience of description we have divided the symptoms into three stages.

First, the stage during which fever is the characteristic symptom; second, the stage during which a peculiar foetid diarrhoea is well marked; and third, the stage during which there is great prostration and blood-stained diarrhoea. The last two stages inore or less run into each other.

(1.) In the early part of the disease an elevation of temperature is the only noticeable symptom. The animal eats, drinks and ruminates and behaves as if in perfect health. The rise in temperature is usually very sudden. It is com- mon to find an animal with a normal temperature in the morning and a tem- perature of 103° F. to 105° F. in the evening and a pulse of 100 to 120 per minute. Occasionally a slight cough can be noticed. This febrile condition may last from two to four days. Towards the end of this stage the animal begins to show signs of ailing. It becomes less inclined to eat, ruminates intermit- tently. The fæces become coated with a thick tenacious mucous which gives them a polished and varnished appearance. The animal's coat begins to "stare" a little and the belly becomes tucked up. The animal although eating and drinking fairly well begins to lose flesh rapidly. The ears hang listlessly; the eyes are unuaturally brilliant with frequently a considerable amount of dried tears at the inner canthus. The nose at first moist and natural begins to get hard and dry, and there appears a slight discharge from the nose which the animal becomes too indifferent to remove. The temperature now usually falls a degree or so. Often there are occasional colicky pains in the abdomen; the animal holds its breath, arches its back and gives a short painful grunt. This spasm only lasts for a short time, and when it passes off the animal appears as usual and will often eat a little. The bowels instead of being constipated become loosened and diarrhoea sets in gradually. The com- mencement of the diarrhoea may be regarded as the beginning of the second stage.

 2.) With the onset of the diarrhoea there appears to be some relief, and the animal eats and drinks more freely. Griping pains in the abdomen are still noticeable at intervals. The diarrhoea is at first perfectly healthy looking. It is necessary at- this point to explain that the normal droppings of Chinese cattle are almost identical with those of sheep in Great Britain so that the appearance of the fæces at the begin- ning of the dirrahcea resembles exactly what would be regarded in home cattle as per- fectly normal excreta, viz., soft and pultaceous. During this stage the temperature usually falls a degree or two, e.g., from 104° F. or 105° F. to 102 5 F. or 103° F. The excessive mucous which enveloped the excreta, during the febrile stage now disappears. The discharge from the nose becomes very profuse. The eyes become hidden by a thick glairy mucous which overflows, trickles down the cheek and becomes agglutinated to the hairs. The conjuntival mucous membrane is reddened. The rectal and vaginal mucous membranes are sometimes reddened, at other times normal. Over the upper third of the shoulders, on the upper aspect of the neck and over the rump there is frequently to be seen a scaly furfuraceous condition of the skin which causes the hair to stand erect over those parts. At other times this condition is not noticeable until the disease is more advanced. Shortly after its commencement, 12 to 24 hours, the character of the diarrhoea alters, it becomes thin,

.

1770

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 31ST DECEMBER, 1903.

watery, almost black in colour and has a very offensive smell. There is often a good deal of straining and as the disease progresses the anus becomes excoriated. The pain in the abdomen now appears to be constant and there is almost continuous grinding of the teeth. The animal lies the greater part of its time, when standing the head hangs down, the belly is tucked up and held rigid. The expirations are short and painful and frequently accompanied by a grunt. The eyes become sunken and the discharge from them and from the nose increases and becomes thinner with more of a muco purulent character. Rumination ceases. The animal refuses all food but continues to drink greedily. Muscular twitchings of the panniculus, muscles of the neck and shoulder and of the thighs are often seen. The twitchings of the muscles of the head and neck cause the animal to make peculiar short jerky nodding movements and the legs are frequently picked up as if they had been struck sharply. This black and highly offensive diarrhoea may persist for from 24 to 48 hours, and not infrequently death occurs at this stage. Emaciation proceeds rapidly and there is great weakness and prostration. The character of the diarrhoea again alters, and this marks the opening of the third stage of the disease.

3.) The discharges become clear and straw coloured. The fluid frequently contains pale pink blood clots, shreds of a croupous or diphtheritic looking ex- udate resembling casts of the bowel and a great deal of mucous. This material is frequently passed involuntarily and trickles down soiling the hind quarters and tail. In stronger animals it is often ejected with considerable force and preceded and followed by painful straining. The rectum is often partially everted and the mucous membrane appears reddened and inflamed. In fernale animals there is a whitish glairy mucoid discharge from the vagina and the mucous membrane of the labiæ and vagina is reddened and shows a few hæmorrhagic looking spots. The animal becomes rapidly weaker and loses flesh fast. When standing it is very unwilling to move and when made to do so, moves very slowly and stiffly as if every movement caused pain. It lies the greater part of the time.

       It lies the greater part of the time. When it lies down it usually makes one or two attempts to do so, stops and seems afraid and finally lies down all in a heap. Instead of resting on its sternum after the usual manner of oxen, it more often rolls over on to its side and lies with legs extended and head and neck flat on the ground. The head is often held as far back as possible. The temperature often falls to normal and may remain so for 24 hours. death approaches the temperature becomes subnormal and death usually takes place without a struggle. The carcase in deaths from chronic cases presents an ex- tremely, dirty, emaciated, loathsome appearance. The natural orifices of the body are patent and soiled with their discharges.

As

Appended are four photographs,* two of which give a fair idea of the appearance of healthy Chinese cattle, the other two present representations of cattle suffering from the disease. These photographs were inserted to bring out more forcibly the difference between healthy cattle and those suffering from this disease and to illustrate the description of the symptoms, viz., the degree of emaciation, "tucked up" ap- pearance and the discharges from eyes and nose.

GENERAL REMARKS ON POST-MORTEM EXAMINATIONS.

In many

During the course of this investigation very good opportunities have been afforded us for conducting post-mortem examinations on typical cases. instances, however such an examination could not be undertaken owing to the rapidity with which decomposition sets in during the hotter seasons of the year. In addition to the climatic factor, the size of the animal itself prevents the rapid radia- tion of heat, and the bulky nature of the stomachs and bowel and their contents favour the rapid growth of post-mortem micro-organisms. Indeed the changes, which set in after the death of the animal are so rapid that 3 to 4 hours after death, a satisfactory post-mortem cannot be made. Although a considerable number of animals succumbed to the disease, it was impossible to find a favourable opportunity to perform the post-mortem examination within the limit of time between death and the onset of decomposition.

The general results of the post-mortem examinations held by us were remark- ably uniform. From an external examination of the animals, the first noteworthy point is the presence of extreme emaciation. The eyes are sunken, a thick yellowish muco-purulent discharge is found around the eyes and nose. This is found agglu-

tinated to the hair of the cheek. The flanks are sunken, the anus and vagina are relaxed and excoriated with the presence of a discharge similar to that found around the eyes.

Such an aggravated condition is constantly present in cases surviving 5 to 8 days. In more acutely fatal cases, these appearances are less definite, in fact, in a few cases, the external examination of the carcase may show nothing noteworthy.

Circulatory Organs.-The condition of the pericardium. It may be normal. In many instances petechiae are found in the parietal and visceral layers. They are about the size of a lentil and as a rule are most abundant in the visceral layer.

The pericardial sac occasionally contains a small amount of straw-coloured fluid. Otherwise the general appearance of the sac is normal.

The heart frequently shows small circumscribed hæmorrhagic extravasations both intra-muscular and endocardial. Otherwise the heart is to all appearance normal, although in a few instances the muscular substance is extremely soft and flabby. In one or two cases, tenacious ante-mortêm clots have been found. In one case, valvular vegetations were found in the right heart. These appeared recent in origin. Their significance was not determined.

In old animals, a noteworthy point is the occurrence of marked hypertrophy of the cardiac muscle, more particularly on the left side. This condition appears to be due to the hard outdoor work done by these cattle.

Respiratory Organs.-The nares, larynx and trachea were frequently congested. Occasionally submucous hæmorrhages were found. There has never been any appearance suggestive of erosion or ulceration. The lungs may be normal, but in the majority of instances are congested. In a large number of cases interlobular emphysema was present. Cases of oedema and infraction of the lungs have been found. In two cases multiple abscesses were present. In one case, P.M. No. 5, the animal had been ill for 21 days. In the other case, P.M. No. 26, the animal was sick for 12 days.

In both cases the abscesses were variable in size and shape. The smaller abscesses were about three-eighths of an inch in diamater and enclosed in dense fibrous capsules. In many cases these walls appeared to have broken down giving rise to the formation of large abscesses of very irregular outline. The pus was thick, creamy and blood stained and contained the characteristic bacillus as well as ordinary pyogenic cocci.

In no case was there ever any appearance of pleurisy or consolidation of the lungs. The appearance of tubercular disease was also absent from every post- mortem made by us.

રી

Cavity of Abdomen.-No excess of fluid was ever present. The peritoneum appeared to be normal with the exception of the presence of a few petechiae. There were never signs of peritonitis. The great omentum was usually congested with a few

petechiæ. The general appearance of the gut was congested, in several instances subserous hæmorrhages were found along the mesenteric vessels. The bowel was usually empty.

Gastro Intestinal Tract.-The mucous membrane of the tongue was occa- sionally congested. The buccal mucous membrane was in a similar condition In no case was there any abrasion, erosion or ulcerations of the buccal or lingual mucous membrane. The pharynx and oesophagus were always found normal.

The first three stomachs were constantly normal.

It may be interesting to note that in several cases Amphistoma Conicum was found in the rumen and reticulum, These parasites were sometimes found in so large numbers as to completely cover the mucous membrane over particular areas. It appears to have no causal relationship to the disease, since it is frequently met with in the abattoir in perfectly healthy cattle. The food in the omasum was always in a perfectly normal condition, and not dry, caked and powdery as in many diarrhoeic conditions of the gastro-intestinal tract. The abomasum was normal in three cases only. In all other cases this organ presented what might almost be termed a characteristic appearance, and was the seat of one of the most pronounced patho- logical lesions met with in this disease. Congestion, inflammation, submucous hæmorrhages, necrosis and ulceration were of common occurrence. Congestion and inflammation frequently extended thoughout the entire organ. At times these changes were confined to the anterior or posterior portions of the viscus, the central portion being normal. Submucous hæmorrhages, variable in size, shape and extent constituted a marked feature of the pathological condition, of the organ in this disease. The occurrence of necrosis and ulceration is variable in degree. In some instances it is extremely widespread, extending over the entire mucous surface of the stomach. In other cases, the process is more or less confined, like the congestion and inflammation, to the anterior, middle, or posterior divisions of the organ. As already incidentally mentioned, in three fatal cases the stomach was normal. In other fatal cases congestion, inflammation and hæmorrhages may be practically the only changes observable, ulceration and necrosis being in abeyance, In such cases the presence of nodular lymphoid-like masses, ranging in size from a pea to a bean, irregular in outline, and encircled by a zone of intense hyperemia which at times is in addition distinctly hæmorrhagic is frequently found. These masses project slightly beyond the level of the surrounding mucous membrane. They are variable in consistence, those which appeared to be of more recent origin were firm, while others, probably more advanced, were soft, pulpy, and readily broken when handled. The latter frequently showed a slight apical depression in which could be seen the commencement of ulceration.

In those cases where extensive necrosis and ulceration were most in evidence, the necrotic areas presented the following appearance. The dead mucous membrane was of variable extent, from quarter of an inch to one inch in diameter, of very irregular outline, of whitish colour and was easily detachable from the subjacent tissues, leaving a flat, ragged edged ulcer, the floor of which was very granular with intergranular collections of pyoid-looking material.

In some cases the ulcers presented a distinctly punched out like appearance, their floors being necrotic. In one case the ulcers had extended deeply into the muscular wall.

In no case had perforation taken place.

The duodenum may be found normal. The pathological changes in this gut are less frequently of such an extent or gravity as in the abomasum. They how- ever partake of the same character. Congestion is of common occurrence; inflam- mation, general or patchy, is not infrequent; and ulceration and necrosis have been found. The lesions found in this gut were usually most pronounced towards its junction with the abomasum.

The small intestine usually presents an appearance somewhat similar to that found in the duodenum. In the majority of cases, however, the lesions are deve- loped to a lesser degree, the occurrence of ulceration and necrosis being rare. The Peyer's Patches were frequently ulcerated. In other cases no ulceration had occurred but they were enlarged and softened. Others were normal. The bowel was usually all but empty. Such contents as were present, were of a

thin, greyish yellow character with streaks of mucus and traces of blood. In one or two instances distinct solid masses were found. These presented the appear- ance of casts of the gut. They were extremely friable, greyish yellow in colour and were non-adherent to the mucous membrane of the bowel.

The ileo-cæcal valve may be normal. In many cases congestion, hæmorrhages, ulceration and necrosis are met with. The character of these changes is identical with that of the abomasum. The cæcum and large intestine are also involved in changes similar to those found in the abomasum, although the degree of such changes is less. Congestion and submucous hæmorrhages are frequent, but the occurrence of ulceration and necrosis is somewhat rare. In the large intestine, along the crests of the longitudinal rugæ congestion, inflammation and hæmorrhages occur. These give the mucous surface of bowel a peculiar streaked or striped appearance. Such a condition is frequently found extending throughout the whole of the large intestine.

The contents of the cæcum and large intestine resemble those found in the small intestine. The rectum presents an appearance akin to that found in the large intestine. The anus is frequently excoriated.

The liver is as a rule unchanged. Fatty infiltration is fairly common. Jaundice is also met with. In one case insular hæmorrhages were found scattered in the parenchyma. Chronic biliary cirrhosis caused by the presence of the Distoma Hepaticum in the bile ducts was frequently met with. This condition has probably nothing to do with the disease as it is daily met with among healthy animals in the slaughter-house.

In the majority of cases the gall bladder was found to contain a thick glairy bile. In many cases this had distended the organ to twice its normal size. The mucous membrane was often found congested and inflamed. In other cases necrosis and ulceration were present in addition Hæmorrhages and petechiae were occasionally found.

The spleen was found unaltered in the majority of instances. Congestion and enlargement may be present. In other cases infarctions and hæmorrhages are found in its substance. Rarely the spleen may be even diminished in size.

Genito-Urinary Organs.-The kidneys are usually normal to the naked eye. The pelvis and ureters are also healthy. The bladder, however, may show con- gestion with submucous hæmorrhagic extravasations. No ulceration or necrosis have been found.

၂)

The majority of animals examined were males. From the small number of males examined, it is scarcely possible to make any general statement with regard the effects of this disease upon the female generative organs. However ulceration of the vagina appears to be fairly common. One case of pyometra was examined, but the siguificance of this condition in relation to the disease in question was unde- termined.

The Lymphatic System.-A constant feature of the disease is the condition of the lymphatic glands. In every instance of the disease so far met with the lymphatic glands throughout the whole body were the seat of marked changes, these consisting of extensive hæmorrhagic extravasation into their substance, congestion with enlargement, and frequently the presence of a large amount of infiltration. The peri-lymphatic connective tissue was usually the seat of serous infiltration. Exact details in regard to the condition of the individual lymphatic glands in each case is given in the Appendix on post-mortem examinations.

BACTERIOLOGY OF THE DISEASE.

serous

After a careful analysis of the symptoms and pathological appearances present- ed by this disease, it becomes evident to the investigator that there is no limit as to the extent of the morbid process in the body of an affected animal. The changes met with are certainly most pronounced and most frequently found in some struc- tures, e.g., the lymphatic glands, the abomasum, etc., but they are not necessarily

1783

1784

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 31ST DECEMBER, 1903.

confined to these. In fact there can exist no doubt in the mind of the morbid an- atomist, who has performed a few necropsies on the bodies of these diseased animals, that he has before him, a disease of a decided septicæmic nature, the pathological appearances of which are chiefly characterised by the occurrence of widespread and multiple hæmorrhages into the organs and tissues, and of necrosis and ulceration more particularly in certain parts of the alimentary system.

The bacteriological enquiry into the nature of the exciting agent of this disease has yielded most satisfactory results. As will be described presently, this investigation has clearly shewn the disease to be distinctly septicaemic in nature, and excited by the growth in the blood, organs and tissues, and the excrement and discharges of the infected animal of a definite species of micro-organism which possesses certain well marked morphological and biological characteristics.

This micro-organism can be isolated from every case of the disease either intra-vitam or post-mortem. The latter method of obtaining the micro-organism in pure culture is purely a question of careful bacteriological technique, the causative agent being present in considerable numbers in the different fluids and tissues of the dead animal. The most certain results are attained by the preparation of plate cultures from the lymphatic glands, more particularly from those which pre- sent a deeply hæmorrhagic appearance.

The demonstration of the micro-organism during life is a procedure of much greater difficulty. The discharges from the eyes, nose, rectum and vagina certainly contain the organism in considerable quantity, but owing to the presence of numbers of other micro-organisms in these excretions, its isolation is requiring of much technical skill. Further, films of blood obtained from the ear and prepared by Ross' method, occasionally show one or two typical micro-organisms. Their microscopic demon- stration in drops of blood and their successful cultivation from the blood stream during life are by no means constant factors. Indeed it would appear that the presence of the micro-organism in the circulating blood is not demonstrable during all periods of the disease. There is reason to believe that towards the end of the fatal form of the disease and more particularly during the agonal period, the micro- organism can be demonstrated with a much greater degree of certainty.

Again, in the discharge resulting from the occurrence of complications and sequelae of this disease, the micro-organism has been recovered in almost pure culture. In one instance of the chronic form of this disease, in which death resulted from the presence of miliary abscesses in both lungs, the micro-organism was obtained in almost pure culture from one of these pus foci.

In several other instances, subcutaneous abscesses resulted from experimental inoculation. In these the micro-organism was constantly present, although rarely in pure culture.

These remarks clearly emphasize the septicæmic nature of the disease, a morbid process called forth by the growth in the blood stream and tissues of a particular micro-organism of which the following is a description.

Microscopic Appearances.

It is a short rod. Its length is rarely twice its breadth. It is extremely minute and frequently great difficulty is experienced in dertermining its rod-shaped nature. In films, the micro-organism appears at the first glance to be a micro- coccus or a diplo-coccus, but careful scrutiny shows that it is really a short bacillus with rounded ends and flattened extremities. When one end is pointed towards the observer the micro-organism appears to be a coccus. When the bacillus gives the appearance of a diplo-coccus, this illusion is due to the fact that the central' por- tion of the rod remains unstained. This central part is contained within two delicate stained lines the walls of the rod-the whole giving the appearance of two juxta posed cocci. Its exact shape. varies. It most frequently appears as an oval shaped rod, but coccoid and biscuit-shaped forms are met with.

This "bipolar staining" is by no means confined to any one species of micro- organism.

The micro-organism is found for the most part lying free in the plasma be- tween the leucocytes and red blood corpuscles. Rarely it is enclosed in the white blood cells. In the blood the individual rods are usually isolated, but in the spleen, hæmorrhagic lymphatic glands, etc., the bacilli are often united into small clumps- s taphylo-coccoid in appearance.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 31ST DECEMBER, 1903.

The number of these rod-shaped micro-organisms found in different film pre- parations varies considerably. Films prepared from the spleen and hæmorrhagic, lymphatic glands usually contain considerable numbers of the micro-organism. The number of those present in the blood is small.

The morphological appearance of the micro-organism varies considerably according to the conditions under which it lives. As already mentioned it may be like a coccus or become biscuit-shaped. In other cases it may become distinctly longer and thicker so that no difficulty is experienced in determining its bacillary or rod-shaped outline. In cultures, particularly in bouillon, there appears to exist a tendency on the part of the organism to elongate into threads. The micro- organism does not appear to possess a definite capsule.

Motility.

In no strain of this micro-organism so far isolated, has any trace of motility been observed. So far as can be made out, the crganism is possessed of no cilia.

Tinctorial Reactions.

All the ordinary aniline dyes stain the micro-organism readily. If there is any preference perhaps carbol-fuchsin and gentian violet give the clearest pictures. The bipolar appearance is most clearly seen after treatment with carbol-fuchsin and half per cent. acetic acid.

The micro-organism does not retain the colour when treated by GRAM's method of staining. This is constant in all strains of the organism so far met with.

Relation to Oxygen.

The micro-organism is a facultative anærobe.

Optimum Temperature.

It grows most luxuriantly at the aminal body temperature.

Cultural Characteristics.-Gelatine Plates.

To the naked eye the colonies appear after 48 hours as minute white points. These in the course of a few days increase in size and form definitely rounded colonies with somewhat irregular edges. They are semi-transparent, glistening, and of a whitish hyaline appearance.

With the aided eye, little more can be made out, excepting the roughly granular character of the growth.

Colonies of the micro-organism lying in the depth are smaller in size and more opaque.

Gelatine Strokes.

The growth forms a thin whitish coating. Its spread is extremely limited, the colonies tending to remain discrete.

Gelatine Stabs.

The growth is limited, but occurs throughout the extent of the line of inoculation. It is granular, whitish, and semi-transparent in appearance. The growth is more abundant in the upper layers of the gelatine than in the under- lying portions. The surface of the gelatine becomes covered with a whitish hyaline layer which only under exceptional circumstances reaches the wall of the tube.

It never liquefies gelatine.

Agar-agar Plates.

To the naked eye the colonies after 24 hours appear as rounded, structure- less, glistening, and semi-transparent bodies of a greyish white colour.

With the aided eye these colonies are found to possess sharply demarcated edges. Their substance is finely granular.

Deeply situated colonies are rounded with smooth edges. They are deeper in colour and present no appearance of granulation.

1785

1786

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 31ST DECEMBER, 1903.

Agar-agar Slopes.

The growth is widespread and heaped up. The edges of the growth are smooth. The general appearance of the growth is smooth, shining, and hyaline. The condensation water is always cloudy with a considerable granular deposit.

Agar-agar Stabs.

The growth occurs throughout the whole extent of the line of inoculation. It is thread-like and granular. Its colour is whitish-grey. Considerable growth takes place on the surface of the columns of agar-agar. This ultimately reaches the walls of the tube.

Peptone Bouillon.

In this medium the growth is frequently slow. The medium becomes diffusely cloudy.

The extent of this cloudiness varies. It is accompanied by the formation of a considerable granular deposit, which on shaking the culture tube rises and breaks up and gives rise to a diffuse cloudiness. In the course of a few days the initial cloudi- ness more or less vanishes and the medium'appears as a hazy fluid with an abundant deposit. Occasionally a delicate pellicle of growth forms on the surface of the broth. This membrane is so fine that the slightest handling of the culture tube tends to break it up-the fragments sinking as a deposit to the bottom of the tube.

Milk.

So far no strain has caused coagulation, even after several weeks. The reac- tion of the medium is sligtly acid after the micro-organism has grown for some time.

Potato.

The growth on this form of medium is subject to considerable variation. Micro-organisms freely isolated from the living or dead animal grow very sparsely on this medium. In certain instances no growth at all is obtained. This seems to depend entirely upon the acid reaction of the medium-a circumstance which has always to be taken into consideration when dealing with such a variable form of nutrient medium as the potato. If the potato be not acid, a growth is always obtained. However this growth varies in its amount and appearance in different strains of the micro-organism tested.

In certain cases a typhoid like growth is obtained, delicate, moist, and in- visible. In other instances the growth is luxuriant, of a greyish-yellow or greyish- white colour. The colonies are flat or heaped up and present a shiny appearance. The medium in the neighbourhood of the growth is never pigmented.

Spore Formation.

There is no evidence of the formation of spores.

Resistance of the Micro-organism.

No experiments have been undertaken so far to determine the action of injurious agents upon the micro-organisms. It is proposed to undertake this in a later research.

Chemical Reactions. Pigmentation. Odour.

Pigment is formed under no condition.

no characteristic odour.

Cultures of the micro-organism have

In albuminous and peptone medium this gas is constantly formed as shown by the reaction obtained with basic lead acetate.

Indol.

The formation of this body varies in amount. In certain cases it is accom- panied by a reduction of nitrates, so that the nitroso-indol reaction can be obtained, the formation of indol by this micro-organism depends as in other cases upon the particular form of peptone present in the nutrient medium.

EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION.

This part of the investigation has been prosecuted to a limited extent, indeed only so far as to place the micro-organism which has been isolated from cases of the disease upon an irrefutable basis and to determine whether it fulfils the postulates of KOCH. Having satisfied ourselves in regard to these points, we have, apart from a few preliminary experiments, decided to postpone this important part of the research. It is proposed to deal fully with this part of the investigation in a later

report.

In the first place, feeding experiments were resorted to. Sinall pieces of the internal organs, e g.,

the lymphatic glands, spleen, &c., were given to a number of fowls. The condition of these animals including their body temperature was regularly noted. Although these animals were fed upon considerable quantities of infected tissues no reaction was obtained, all maintaining a perfect state of health.

Further numbers of fowls were allowed to wander about the shed in which the sick animals were kept, and on opportunity presenting itself, all of them vora- ciously fed upon the intestinal excreta of the sick animals. Sometimes large quantities of solid or semi-solid masses of necrosed tissues and casts of the bowel were devoured by these animals and although the fowls were wandering about the shed during the greater part of the summer and picking up what excreta they could find, only in one instance was a fatal result obtained. This fowl was examined bac- teriologically and in its blood and internal organs the specific bacillus was found.

Again, large numbers of pigeons were constantly present in the infected shed and although they readily fed on the infective material passed per rectum by the sick animals, only one of these was found dead, its blood containing the charac- teristic micro-organism. From these results -although only preliminary--one is thoroughly justified in concluding that so far as feeling experiments are concerned these animals-fowls and pigeons-are extremely resistant.

The results obtained by the feeding of animals of the same species as those di-eased, with blood and pieces of the internal organs obtained from the fresh dead body of a diseased animal were highly satisfactory

For details in regard to this experiment vide "Heifer Calf D."

The disease in this animal ran a typical course. It was marked by a high temperature, characteristic diarrhoea, rigors, &c., during life, and the subsequent post- mortem and bacteriological examination proved the conditions present to be due to the disease under consideration.

The foregoing completes our experimental data obtained by feeding. Highly interesting results were obtained in one bullock by the subcutaneous inoculation of fresh blood taken from a diseased ox. For details in regard to this experiment vide "Bullock A." The disease in the inoculated animal ran a typical course and gave characteristic post-mortem and bacteriological results.

As already mentioned experiments were undertaken with pure cultures of the bacillus which had been isolated from the disease. These experiments were of a limited number and only proceeded with as far as the point where a conclusion could be drawn as to the causal relationship of the micro-organism to the disease. Inoculation and feeding experiments with the culture were carried out on small animals as mice, rabbits, guinea pigs and birds. The result obtained was subject to considerable variation. Fresh strains of the bacillus recently isolated from a dead animal gave in the majority of cases a positive result. Each species of animal dying rapidly from septicemia. The bacillus could be recovered from the bodies of these dead animals with little difficulty. Cultures of the micro-organism which had been growing in the laboratory for some time gave in the majority of instances a negative result. This apparently depends upon the very rapid diminution in virulence of the bacillus when grown upon artifical nutrient media. Experiments in regard to this question will be dealt with fully in a later report.

The most interesting experiment and the crucial test as to the causal relation- ship of the bacillus to the disease is given in detail under the heading "Heifer Calf E." From this experiment alone, there can exist no further doubt as to the bacillary nature of the disease which we have had the opportunity of investigating. The bacillus which we regard as the exciting agent of this pestilent disease fulfils therefore to the full extent Koch's postulates:

(1.) It can be isolated from every case of the disease.

(2.) Pure cultures of the bacillus give rise to a similar septicæmic and

hæmorrhagic disease in many of the lower animals.

(3.) Pure cultures of the micro-organisms give rise to the discase in

characteristic form in bullocks of the same species.

(4.) And from all animals experimented with, including oxen, the

bacillus can again be isolated in pure cultures.

BULLOCK "A".

The animal was perfectly healthy previous to experiment. Its temperature averaged 100° F. to 101° F. for two days previously.

On the 3rd day it was inoculated subcutaneously into the upper third of the neck, just in front of the shoulder with 10 c.c. of fresh blood from Ox No. 145, obtained from the heart within a few minutes after death.

The disease in Ox No. 145 ran a typical course-vide P.M. No. 39.

As will be observed from the accompanying temperature chart, a decided rise in temperature was obtained on the 4th day after inoculation. Up to the 7th day after inoculation the animal showed no symptoms of disease. Food and drink were taken as if in perfect health.

On the 8th day after inoculation the animal refused food, rumination was suspended, and generally speaking showed an appearence of ill-health.

On the 9th day, diarrhoea set in. The discharges presented the characteristic black fluid, and foetid condition found in animals which had contracted the disease under natural circumstances. Rapid emaciation and severe prostration accom- panied the onset of the diarrhoea.

On the 10th day, the animal was unable to rise, and lay with legs stretched out, and head and neck flat on the ground. Respirations became short, hurried and shallow, and painful grunts accompanied each expiratory effort.

The animal rapidly sank, and died on the morning of the 11th day after inoculation.

Post-mortem Examination.

The skin and subcutaneons tissues over the point of inoculation were deeply congested, with extensive hæmorrhagic extravasation. Lying deeply in the sub- cutaneons tissues were found the remains of the blood inoculated. There was no necrosis or breaking down of tissue in or about the area of inoculation. From this focus of inoculation, the congestion and hæmorrhagic infiltration of the tissues spread almost over the entire left side of the body, extensive extravasations of blood had occurred into and along the muscular sheaths. The pericardium was slightly reddened. Numerous petechia of varying size were present in the epicar- dium. The visceral layer was normal. The trachea was normal, the lungs con- gested and all the mediastinal lymphatic glands were deeply hæmorrhagic. The liver was jaundiced and slightly fatty. Thick tenaceous bile was found in the gall bladder. the sac itself being normal. The spleen was normal in size and appear- The The rumen, reticulum and omasum presented nothing abnormal abomasum was deeply congested throughout its whole length. More or less ex- tensive extravasations of blood were found scattered throughout the mucous mem- brane. Varying sized ulcers, rounded in shape, with ragged edges were numerous. In the majority of cases the centre of these ulcers was occupied by a mass of necrosed tissue. The duodenum and small intestine were much congested, but not ulcerated.

There was no ulcera- tion or necrosis. The rectum was intensely inflamed but not ulcerated. kidneys and bladder were normal. The mesenteric lymphatic glands were deeply hæmorrhagic. The peripheral lymphatic system was profoundly affected, the pre- scapular, precrural, and superficial inguinal glands on both sides of body being intensely hæmorrhagic.

The submaxillary and parotid glands were similarly affected.

The bacteriological examination of the blood, organs and lymphatic glands showed the presence of large numbers of typical diplo-coccoid looking bacilli the majority of which were agglomerated into staphylo-coccoid like clumps.

HEIFER CALF "E."

The animal was placed under observation for two days previous to the com- mencement of the experiment. The temperature varied between 101.5° F. and 102.5° F. The animal appeared to be in perfect health.

On the 29th of September, 1903, the animal was fed with a bouillon culture of the bacillus. The micro-organism used for this purpose was isolated in pure culture from a typical case of the disease. It was grown for 5 days in neutral peptone bouillon, a luxuriant growth with abundant deposit being obtained. Altogether about 250 c.c. of this culture was poured over the animal's throat.

On the afternoon of the 5th day after feeding, the animal gave a temperature of 103.8° F. No other symptoms was noticeable at this period.

On the afternoon of the next day a temperature of 105° F. was reached. In addition to this rise in temperature, slight rigors could be seen.

The animal, however, fed well, etc., and showed no signs of distress.

On the 7th of October, the rigors were more pronounced. In addition, the conjunctival, nasal, and vaginal mucous membranes were congested.

On the 8th of October, there appeared a distinct discharge from the eyes, nose and vagina. There were marked rigors and muscular twitchings of the neck, shoulders, and thighs.

On the 9th October, diarrhoea commenced. The discharge was of the usual thin, black and offensive character, showing here and there traces of blood.

The diarrhoea gradually increased in severity, and blood and mucus became more and more in evidence. From this stage onwards the animal obviously sunk fast, and on the afternoon of the 12th of October, was killed in extremis.

It was considered judicious to kill the animal at this stage as it was obvious that life could not be prolonged until morning. Supposing death had taken place during the night a satisfactory necropsy woull have been impossible owing to the rapid onset of decomposition.

Post-mortem Examination.--The skin and subcutaneous tissues were markedly congested. The pericardium contained a small quantity of blood-stained watery fluid. The parietal layer was normal. The visceral coat showed the presence of numerous minute blood extravasations. These were most pronounced along the tracts of the coronary vessels. The heart was normal. Nothing abnormal was found in the trachea or lungs. Several of the mediastinal glands were deeply hæmorrhagic, the majority, however, only showed enlargement, slight congestion and serous infiltration. The liver and gall bladder were normal. The latter was distended with thick, glairy, tenacious bile. The rumen, reticulum and oma- sum were normal. The abomasum was acutely inflamed, more particularly towards its upper end. Minute and irregularly shaped hæmorrhagic foci were found scattered throughout the surface of the mucous membrane.

Ulceration was just commencing. There was no marked necrosis. Spreading over the whole extenf of the mucous membrane, was a delicate film of greyish, and easily detachable exudate. The duodenum was inflamed but not ulcerated. The changes in the small intestine resembled those met with in the abomasum. It was acutely inflamed and ulceration and necrosis were on the point of commencing.

The cæcum was very much congested. Hæmorrhagic extravasations were diffusely scattered over the entire mucous surface. These varied in number and size, being most numerous and of greatest extent towards the cæcal or blind end.

The ileo-cæcal valve was normal. In the vicinity immediately around the valve ulceration was marked.

The large intestine was generally inflamed. Hæmorrhagic foci were scattered throughout its entire length, ulceration and necrosis were just on the point of beginning. The rectum was in a similar condition. The spleen was normal.

The mesenteric lymphatic glands were enlarged and congested. Many were deeply pigmented; a few, however, were deeply hæmorrhagic. The kidneys were healthy.

The urinary bladder was inflamed, small hæmorrhages were found in the mucous membrane. The animal was pregnant. The foetus was about 3 months old. The uterus and appendages were normal. A post-mortem examination was made on the fœtus but nothing pathological was detected. The peripheral lymphatic system of the animal was distinctly pathological. Both parotid glands were normal. The right submaxillary gland was also normal but that on the left side was deeply hæmorrhagic. The prescapular lymphatic glands were enlarged and congested and contained an excessive amount of serous or mucoid like fluid. The right precrural lymphatic gland was enlarged and congested-that on the left side was deeply hæmorrhagic. The inguinal lymphatic glands were deeply congested and infiltrated with mucoid fluid. The iliac lymphatic glands were deeply hæmorrhagic.

Blood films, smears from different organs and cultures, were made and the bacillus demonstrated microscopically and obtained in pure culture.

HEIFER CALF "D".

For two days prior to experimentation the animal was under observation. The temperature was taken morning and evening and found to vary between 101.5° F. and 102.5° F. To all appearance the animal was in perfect health. On the afternoon of the third day the animal was fed with an emulsion of blood, spleen and lymphatic gland. In all about one pint of this emulsion was given. The in- fective material from which the emulsion was prepared was obtained from Ox No. 145, as in the case of Bullock "A." For 3 days after the experiment no obvious change was observed in the condition of the animal. On the 4th day, feeding was again resorted to, a pint of blood being obtained from Ox No. 176, vide post-mor- tem chart No. 31. In this ox, the disease had run a typical course.

On the 3rd October, 1903, a decided reaction was manifest, the temperature in the evening reaching 105:2° F. The animal still remained to all appearance healthy. On the following day occasional rigors were noticeable. The animal con- tinued to take its usual quantity of food and water up until the 6th of October, when it left the half of its ration untouched and greedily drank more than its usual allowance of water. On the next day all food was refused, rumination was sus- pended, the belly was "tucked up," the back arched, and the head and cars hung listlessly. The coat began to "stare" and a scurfy condition of the skin was noticeable over the withers and rump.

On the 8th of October diarrhoea set in. At first this was very slight, amount- ing only to a softer and more pultaceous condition than is usually found in Chinese cattle.

On the following day the diarrhoea was more severe.

The fæces were thin, black and fœtid and here and there streaks of blood were to be found. This was accompanied by flakes and croupous looking casts of the bowel. These were greyish yellow in colour, friable in consistence with an admixture of blood.

The animal was found dead on the morning of the 10th of October, 1903, and a post-mortem examination was held.

Post-mortem Examination.-The skin and subcutaneous tissues were deeply

congested.

The pericardium was reddened and contained a small quantity of blood-stain- ed fluid. Its visceral layer contained a number of minute hæmorrhagic extra- vasations specially along the course of the coronary vessels, the parietal layer also contained several irregularly shaped blood extravasations.

The

The heart was normal. No endocardial hæmorrhages were found. trachea was congested, the lungs were healthy and all the mediastinal lymphatic glands were deeply hæmorrhagic.

The liver, gall bladder, spleen, rumen, reticulum and omasum were healthy. The abomasum was in a condition of acute congestion. Towards its upper end and more particularly at its junction with the omasum, the mucous membrane was extensively ulcerated, the ulcers were of a distinct punched out appearance, they varied much in size, their edges were ragged and the centre of each contained a greyish white mass of necrosed tissue. Towards the pyloric end a similar con- dition existed, the ulceration, however, being less extensive and the ulcers smaller in size. Scattered throughout the whole area of the abomasum were numerous small hemorrhages into the mucous membrane. The duodenum and small intestine presented a condition similar to that found in the abomasum, the ulcers being scattered throughout its whole length. Extensive hæmorrhagic extravasations were found in the peritoneal surface of the small intestine. These continued along the tract of the blood vessels for a considerable distance into the mesentery. Around the ileo-cæcal valve the ulceration was well marked, the valve itself being very ragged. The cæcum was intensely inflamed and contained a solid cast of the mucous membrane occupying the whole lumen of the gut. It was greyish yellow in colour and very friable in consistence. Throughout the whole area of the mucous membrane there was extensive ulceration, necrosis, and hæmorrhagic extravasation. The large intestine and the rectum were found in a similar con- dition.

The mesenteric lymphatic glands were generally enlarged and hæmorrhagic.

The kidneys were normal.

The urinary bladder was congested and its mucous membrane covered with a delicate, greyish white and readily detachable exudate.

The peripheral lymphatic glands were generally markedly pathological. The precrural, prescapular, and inguinal glands on both sides of the body were deeply hæmorrhagic. Both parotid and the left submaxillary glands were hæmorrhagic. The right submaxillary gland was enlarged and contained a large amount of mucoid looking material.

The animal was preguant, a 3 months' male foetus being found in the

uterus.

The uterus was normal.

The post-mortem examination of the fœtus showed only a few hemorrhages into the visceral layer of the pericardium. All other organs and tinues were normal. The micro-organism could not be found in the foetal tissues.

The characteristic micro-organism was found microscopically in the blood and lymphatic glands and subsequently obtained in pure culture.

Appendix F.

SYMPTOMS AND POST-MORTEM APPEARANCES NOTED DURING THE EPIDEMIC AT POKFULUM IN 1902.

A notable rise in temprature 103°-106.5° F. was at first the only notice- able symptom. For two or three days this high temperature was maintained without much alteration in the condition of the animal except that the secretion of milk in milch cows was arrested almost simultaneously with the onset of the fever. At the end of the 2nd or 3rd day diarrhoea set in. This came on gradually. The animal lost appetite, rumination was suspended; there was great dullness and weakness, staring coat, arched back, and the animal occasionally ground its teeth. As the diarrhoea progressed the pulse became weaker and respiration was more hurried. Occasionally colicky pains were present. The visible mucous membranes became reddened and congested and covered with a small amount of thick tenacious mucous. The eyes were swollen and watery. As the diarrhoea became more marked the fæces became streaked with occasional tinges of blood and a thick mucus was often passed in small quantities.

}

Straining and tenesmus were usually slight. The animal often lay down a good deal and towards the end emaciation was very rapid. Death was usually pre- ceded by a marked fall in temperature.

In certain cases, the animal may appear to be recovering, becomes brighter for a day or two, shows some desire for food, diarrhoea becomes less acute and the temperature falls slowly when suddenly the temperature rises again, diarrhoea sets in accompanied by great prostration and the animal dies in a short time. There were no lesions in the visible mucous membranes, only congestion and there was no skin eruption. Death occurred at all stages of the disease.

Post-mortem Appearances.---The mouth, abomasum, large and small intestines were the only parts of the alimentary tract affected.

The mucous membrane of the mouth was reddened and congested but there were no ulcers or abrasions.

The abomasum was the seat of marked lesions. It was reddened throughout with inflamed patches here and there. Scattered over the folds of the mucous membrane were necrotic patches and ulcers. These were irregular in outline and varied in size from a pin's head to ten-cent piece. The ulcers had raised edges with hæmorrhagic floors and occasionally necrotic tissue in their cavities.

The small intestine was frequently congested throughout its entire length. Inflamed patches could be seen on the mucous membrane. Peyer's Patches were ulcerated. These ulcers were sometimes minute in size, at other times three to four inches in length with raised ragged edges and bleeding points in their depres- sions. Under the mucous membrane of the intestine petechial hæmorrhages were frequent and here and there all along the mucous membrane were small necrotic patches about the size of a pin's head.

The large intestine showed small petechial spots on both its serous and

mucous coais.

The liver was unchanged in the earlier stages, of the disease. Later on it became enlarged, congested, softened and fatty.

The respiratory tract was normal.

The heart showed the presence of petechial spots. The kidneys, bladder and muscular tissue were normal. The lymphatic glands throughout the body were found enlarged, softened and congested. On section they presented a mottled appearance. Petechial spots and what looked like areas of hæmorrhagic infraction and small necrotic spots about the size of a pin's head soft, friable, and resembling boiled rice were frequently met with. This appearance was well seen in the large body glands as the prescapular and popliteal and although the small intestine and abomasum may show marked lesions, the lymphatic glands of the mesentery may not be affected, the majority remaining healthy while one or two may show the typical hæmorrhagic appearance. In these cases which died early the stomach and bowel lesions may be absent or only slighthy in evidence, and in such the lymphatic glands were the seat of the lesions. Again, in cases which were appar- ently recovering but had a relapse and died, there were the remains of the stomach and bowel lesions in the shape of cicatrices and healing ulcers, but here again the same condition of the lymphatic glands was found.

2. If there is offered to any such ex-Governor being under the age of fifty-five years any office under the Crown either in the Colony or elsewhere which, regard being had as well to the state of his health as to his previous services, such ex-Governor may be pro- perly called upon the accept, the Secretary of State for the Colonies may suspend either wholly or in part as he in his absolute discretion may think fit the pension of such ex- Governor during his tenure of such office in case of acceptance or in case of non-acceptance until he attains the age of fifty-five years.

When the officer applying for a pension or allowance is himself the Head of a Department, or is a Judge, the certificates required by this clause from the Head of a Department must be given by the Governor.

No. 7.

It shall be lawful for the Secretary of State for the Colonies, in cases of peculiar or Cases of extraor extraordinary merit, in which special services have been rendered altogether in excess and dinary merit. beyond the usual scope of those which the officer is paid to perform, to sanction the grant by the Governor in Council of pensions or retiring allowances at higher rates and on more favourable conditions than those which may for the time being be authorised by this Minute.

Such ordinary pensions need not be reported to the Secretary of State except-

(a) in the case of pensions payable in Great Britain, when the amount awarded should be simply reported to the Colonial Office, and at the same time instructions given to the Crown Agents to issue the pensions; and

(b) in the case of officers who have served in more than one Colony, in which case it is desirable that the usual pension paper of particulars should be sent to England inasmuch as the amount awarded may affect the amount payable by other Colonial Governinents.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH JANUARY, 1902.

2. No service other than service on the Fixed Establishment on full or half pay will be taken into account in computing pensions or retiring allowances, except that, where the service on the Fixed Establishment has been immediately preceded by an unbroken period of service on the temporary establishment, or of service paid for out of an open vote or of both such services, such period will be taken into account. Provided always that of the period of service paid for out of an open vote not more than two-thirds shall be counted for the purpose of this clause. Leave of absence on half salary will only be counted at the rate of one month for every two months of such leave, provided that vacation leave, in cases where full salary is not available, shall be counted as though it were leave with full salary. But leave taken before the end of 1886, inclusive of vacation leave taken (after June, 1876,) in conjunction with half pay leave will, to the extent of one-sixth of an officer's resident service, be counted as full service for pension.

3. Service will be deemed to commence for pension purposes, in the case of Cadets as well as of other officers, at the date on which they commence to draw salary, provided that if a Cadet fails to pass the final examination in the native language within the prescribed period, the period by which the date of his passing his final examination is overdue will be deducted from his term of service when his claims to pension are considered.

4. Notwithstanding anything herein before contained a period not exceeding one year during which an officer is absent on leave without salary such leave being granted on grounds of public policy may be counted for the purpose of this clause as service on full pay.

Abolition of office.

2. For the purpose of this clause Salary includes personal allowance, allowance for house rent, estimated value of free quarters, rations, and any other unquestionable remuneration for personal service and any fees paid out of the Treasury by way of salary, but so that the amount to be allowed for house rent or for estimated value of free quarters shall not exceed one-sixth, nor the amount to be allowed for fees one-fourth of the whole of the other emoluments of the office.

No. 14.

1. In case of the abolition of the office of an officer who is borne on the Fixed Establishment of the Colony, a temporary pension may be granted to the officer whose office is abolished, on the condition that he shall hold himself ready to be recalled to service, and with the understanding that he will be re-employed as opportunity offers in preference to new applicants for office.

2. If the officer whose office is abolished is not qualified for other employment, or if there is no reason in the opinion of the Governor to expect that he can be shortly re- employed, a pension may be granted to him free from the conditions as to re-employment mentioned in this clause.

3. In the case of an officer whose office is abolished his pension shall be at the rate of the number of sixtieths of his salary exceeding the number of the completed years of his service by the numbers following (that is to say) :-

6. The officer appointed by the Governor for the purpose shall decide whether any land in the New Territories is agricultural, building, or uncultivated land, and he shall also decide within which of the above three classes any such land falls; but in the event of any person being dissatisfied with any such decision, an appeal shall lie therefrom to the Governor.

   7. The expression "agricultural land" as used in these Rules shall mean land which is used solely and exclusively for purposes of agriculture or fruit-growing.

8. Every sum now due or payable or which shall hereafter become due and payable to the Crown on account of Land Tax may be recovered in the manner hereinafter provided.

A.-(1.) The proper officer shall prepare from the Rent Rolls general notices in the form prescribed in Schedule A specifying the name of each person from whom Tax appears to be due and the amount due by him. The notices shall be exhibited in a Police Station or some other convenient place within each district.

(2.) When any such sum has fallen due and a written notice of demand for it has been served on any one of the persons liable for it or published in the prescribed manner, and fifteen days, or such further time as may have been allowed by such notice, have elapsed from the time of such service or publication without such sum having been paid or satisfied, such sum shall be deemed to be in arrear and every person liable for it shall be deemed to be a defaulter.

B. With a view to the recovery of arrears the officer appointed by the Governor in that behalf may issue an attachment and may seize by virtue thereof any personal property of the defaulter and may also seize any live stock or effects or any crops to whomso- ever belonging which may be found on the land in respect of which the arrears are due and may after the prescribed notice sell the same by public auction in the prescribed

manner.

C.-The attachment may be made by a Land Bailiff who shall publicly notify the attachment in the prescribed manner and shall take an inventory of the property attached.

D. If the arrears cannot be recovered in the manner aforesaid the proper officer may proceed against the land in respect of which the arrears have accrued as next herein- after provided.

E-(1.) The proper officer may by notice of sale (to be served or published in the prescribed

manner) declare his intention of selling, at the expiration of three months from the date of such notice of sale, the land in respect of which the arrears have accrued, and, if at the expiration of such period such arrears have not been paid or satisfied, the said officer may sell by public auction the whole of such land or such portion thereof or such interest therein as he may deem sufficient.

(2.) Provided that in case of any auction sale of land held under this section it shall be competent for the proper officer to fix a reserve price below which no such land shall be sold, such reserve price not to exceed the amount of the arrears together with interest thereon at the rate of eight per cent. per annum, and costs: and provided further that in the event of no bid equal to or exceeding the amount of such reserve price being offered at the time of sale, a report to that effect shall be furnished by the proper officer to the Governor who may, at any time after one week from the date of such auction sale, declare by notification in the Gazette that such land is resumed by the Crown, and such land shall be and become the property of the Crown from and after the date of such notification.

F.-The proceeds of such sale shall be applied in the first place in satisfaction of the arrears together with interest thereon at the rate of eight per cent. per annum and costs, and in the event of there being any surplus remaining, the said officer shall, if he is satisfied as to the right of any person claiming such surplus, pay the amount thereof to such person, and if he is not so satisfied shall hold the amount in trust for the person who may ultimately succeed in due course of law in establishing his title thereto.

G. The purchaser at a sale held under the last preceding paragraph shall be deemed to have acquired the right offered for sale free from all incumbrances created over it and from all subordinate interests derived from it except such as are expressly reserved by the said officer at the time of sale.

H.-All costs of any proceedings under these Rules for the recovery of arrears may be

recovered in the same way as if they formed part of such arrears.

I.-If any person, having any interest in any property liable to be sold under the provisions of this Ordinance, at any time previous to such sale tenders to the said officer the arrears with interest and costs, the said officer shall thereupon desist from any further proceedings in respect thereof.

38

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE. 11TH JANUARY, 1902.

J.-If any person whose personal property crop or land has been attached or advertised for sale under the provisions of these Rules disputes the propriety of the attachment or sale he may apply to the Supreme Court in its Summary Jurisdiction for an order to stay the proceedings and the Court after hearing the said officer and making such further enquiry as may be necessary shall make such order in the premises as shall be just. K-No application shall be entertained by the Court under the last preceding paragraph unless the applicant has deposited in Court the amount of the arrears and costs, or given security for the same to the satisfaction of the Court.

L.-If a person liable to pay any sum due under these Rules cannot be found, the notice required by Rule SA (2) of these Rules shall be published by affixing a copy, in the form prescribed in Schedule B, to his house, or to a temple, or to a police station or other conspicuous building in the vicinity.

M.-Under paragraph B of this Rule the proper officer may, at his own instance, or on the oral application of a Land Bailiff or other officer of his department, issue a warrant of attachment in the form prescribed in Schedule D.

The Land Bailiff or other officer to whom the attachment is addressed shall notify the same by affixing or posting a copy thereof to or upon a conspicuous part of the premises in which the seizure is effected.

N.-The attachment of moveable property shall be effected by an actual seizure, and an inventory sball forthwith be taken of such property by the attaching officer, who shall keep the property in his own custody, or in the custody of one of his subordinates, and shall be responsible for the safety thereof.

He shall not enter any dwellinghouse after sunset or before sunrise, nor shall he break open the outer door of a dwelling house. But when he has duly gained access to any dwelling house, he may unfasten or break open the door of any room. in which he has reason to believe there is any property liable to attachment.

0.-The attachment of crops shall be effected by notice prohibiting the person in possession from removing or dealing with the same. Such notice (Schedule E) shall be posted up on the land on which the crops are growing, and a copy thereof shall be posted at a temple, police station or other conspicuous building in the vicinity.

The attaching officer shall immediately after seizure proclaim, by beat of gong or other manner, that if the amount due is not paid within ten days, or cause shewn why the property should not be sold, such property will be sold by public auction. P.-On the expiration of ten days, if no good cause to the contrary has been shown and the

arrears and costs are still unpaid, the property may be sold.

Provided that when the property seized is of a perishable nature, or when the expense of keeping it in custody appears likely to exceed its value, it may be sold at The expense of the maintenance of live-stock and the custody of moveable property, while under attachment, shall form part of and be recoverable in the same way as the other costs of the attachment.

once.

No officer having any duty to perform in connection with any sale under these Rules shall, either directly or indirectly, bid for, acquire, or attempt to acquire any interest in any property sold at such sale.

Q. Any sale under these Rules may be adjourned from time to time if the said officer shall see good reason for such adjournment. Every such sale shall be stopped if, before the lot is knocked down, the arrears and costs (including the costs of sale) are tendered to the officer conducting the sale.

R.-Where it becomes necessary to take proceedings against the land under paragraph D of this Rule, the proper officer shall record in his office a statement of the case, giving the reason for the process adopted and the area and boundaries of the land, and the nature of the interest sold. He shall, excepting in cases in which he considers it to be unnecessary to do so, annex a plan of the land. A copy of such statement, authenticate by the signature of the said officer, shall, on application, be given to the purchaser.

The notice under paragraph E shall be in the form in Schedule F and shall be served personally on the person named therein or, if that be impracticable, shall be published, by beat of gong or other manner, at some place on or adjacent to the land to be sold. A copy of the notice shall also be posted up on the land itself and at a temple, police station or other conspicuous building in the vicinity.

39

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH JANUARY, 1902.

S.-In the case of moveable property and crops, the price of each lot shall be paid at the time of sale, or as soon after as the officer holding the sale directs; in default of payment, the property shall be again put up and sold. On payment of the purchase- money, the officer conducting the sale shall give a receipt for the same.

On every sale of immoveable property under these Rules, the person declared to be the purchaser shall pay, immediately after such declaration, a deposit of twenty- five per centum on the amount of his purchase-money to the officer conducting the sale, and in default of such deposit, the property shall forthwith be put up again for

sale.

The balance of the purchase-money shall be paid by the purchaser on or before the fifteenth day after the sale of the property, or, if the fifteenth day be a Sunday or other holiday, then on the first office day after the fifteenth day.

In default of payment within the period mentioned above, the deposit shall be forfeited to Government, and the property shall be resold, and the defaulting pur- chaser shall forfeit all claim to the property, and to the whole or any part of the sum for which it may subsequently be sold.

T.-On payment of the purchase-money, the purchaser shall receive from the proper officer a certificate of title to the land or interest in land, as the case may be, sold to him; and the land or interest in land so sold shall forthwith vest in the purchaser abso- lutely, and he shall be forthwith put in possession of the purchased property, the aid of the Police being afforded if needful.

The sums to be deducted from the proceeds of the sale, besides the arrears originally due to Government, shall be :-

(a.) any further arrears that have accrued up to the day of sale; (b.) the costs incurred by the process and sale.

  The following Notice received from the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies is published for general information.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 11th January, 1902.

J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, Colonial Secretary.

NOTICE.

  In consequence of the establishment of Martial Law at all South African ports, it has been decid- ed with the concurrence of the Governments of the Cape Colony and Natal that on and after the 1st January, 1902, permits will be required by every person proceeding to Cape Colony or Natal, to enable him (or her) to enter those Colonies, and no person unprovided with such permit will be allowed by the authorities in South Africa to land in that country, except under special circumstances.

  Application must be made in person at the Permit Office, 39, Victoria Street, S.W., between the hours of 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. on and after the 2nd December, 1901, and should be made at least three weeks before the date of sailing. Permits will be issued with as little delay as possible, but the office cannot guarantee their issue within a period of less than three weeks from the date of application.

  Each applicant will be required to produce a certificate, signed by the Agent General for the Cape Colony or Natal, a Member of Parliament, Justice of Peace, Banker, Parish Priest or Minister, or Officer of H.M. Forces, to the effect that he is in possession of at least £100 or is in a position to maintain himself on arrival in South Africa, that the object of his journey, viz. :-

country as indigent.

is bona fide, and that he has not been deported or sent out of that

  Subjects of Foreign Powers, who may wish to proceed to South Africa from ports in the United Kingdom, can obtain a permit on production of satisfactory evidence to the same effect from their respective Embassies or Legations in London.

  Passengers from ports not in the United Kingdom must supply themselves with permits from the Colonial Secretary or some officer appointed by the Colonial Government in the case of Colonial ports, or from the British Consular Officer at a foreign port of embarkation, who will satisfy himself, as far as possible, that the applicants fulfil the above conditions.

Members of a family proceeding to South Africa will be shewn on the permit issued to its head, provided that a separate permit will be required for each son or daughter over 16 years of age.

It should be clearly understood that these permits are available only to enable passengers to land in South Africa, and are no guarantee that they will be allowed to proceed inland. Those who wish to do so must apply for permits at the port of disembarkation. The latter are warned that there are still thousands of persons waiting at the coast ports for an opportunity to return to their homes, who will probably, have precedence over later arrivals.

YANGTZE RIVER. CHINKIANG DISTRICT.

    North Tree Beacon light has been shifted 400 yards N. 30 deg. E. from its last position, in consequence of the washing away of the river bank.

    2. The depth of water on the Silver Island Crossing, with the range marks in line, is reported to be only 14 feet when reduced to Chinkiang zero. A deep water channel probably exists somewhere in the crossing. A re-survey will shortly be

made.

SAMSHUI.

    A sandbank has formed in the West River between Si In Kau and Outer Point. Ample water channels lie on either side keeping close to the North and South banks.

The sandbank is marked by a sampan made fast to a white painted spar buoy and bearing a red light on a bamboo pole between sunset and sunrise, and a red flag similarly between sunrise and sunset.

    In the event of strong Northerly winds the sampan will probably have to remove elsewhere and the spar-buoy will alone remain in position.

At present there are 4 feet of water on sandbank. The "Bar" between the Summer and Winter anchorage gives 2 feet more water than is on this sandbank.

BIAS BAY.

A rock with less than 6 feet of water over it is in a position about N. 25 E. 2 cables from N. end of Bate Island.

The following Report on the Victoria Gaol, for the year 1901, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 22nd February, 1902.

J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, Colonial Secretary.

PRISON DEPARTMENT, HONGKONG, 24th January, 1902.

 SIR,I have the honour to submit, for the information of His Excellency the Officer Adminis- tering the Government, the following report on the Victoria Gaol, for the year 1901.

2. The number of prisoners admitted to the Gaol under sentence from the Ordinary Courts was 4,858, besides 182 soldiers and sailors sentenced by Courts Martial. There were 29 persons admitted for debt, and 8 in default of finding security, making a total of 5,077. Of these, 679 were old offenders.

3. The corresponding numbers for the preceding year were respectively as follows:--

Convicted by the Ordinary Courts, Courts Martial,

Debtors,

In default of finding security,

.....5,263

127

30

12

Total, including 702 old offenders,............5,432

The daily average number of prisoners confined in the Gaol was 499, as compared with 486 for the year 1900.

4. There were 334 prisoners convicted from the New Territory during the year, of whom, 25 were sentenced to 2 years and upwards.

There were 180 convicts in the Gaol on the 31st December, 1901, against 141 on the 31st De- cember, 1900, 96 on the 31st December, 1899, and 55 on the 31st December, 1898, showing an increase of 125% during the past 3 years.

the

The military and naval prisoners sentenced by Courts-Martial and admitted to the Gaol during year show an increase of 55% over that of the preceding year, and 93 in excess of, those admitted in 1899. This increase is doubtless owing to the large number of soldiers and sailors serv- ing in North China during the military operations last year.

5. The number of prisoners admitted to the Gaol for offences not of a criminal nature was 2,345, made up as follows:-

There were 2,411 punishments for breaches of prison discipline during the year, being an average of 4.83 per prisoner as compared with 2,344, with an average per prisoner of 4:82, for the preceding year. There were 14 cases in which corporal punishment was awarded during the year, 11 of which were (with the birch) sentenced by the Assistant Superintendent alone, and 3 with the cat'o-nine-tails, sentenced by the same Officer in conjunction with a Justice of the Peace.

10. The industrial employment of prisoners remains the same as last year.

There were 2,513,887 forms printed and issued during the year, and 6,107 books were bound during the same period. The value of the work done in the Printing Department amounted to $22,224.59. Deducting the cost of the paper, etc., used during the year from the net earnings, the net profit amounted to $18,849.15. The total profit on all industrial labour amounted to $24,783.47, as compared with $17,458.34 for the preceding year.

11. All minor repairs to the Gaol have been carried out by prison labour. The new wing men- tioned in the report for 1900 was completed and occupied by long-sentenced prisoners early in the year. The Warders' old quarters, which were altered and fitted up as a hospital during 1899, is not yet available for the sick prisoners, as the new quarters for the staff, which should have been com- pleted in 1900, are still in the hands of the contractor.

12. Owing to the excessive number of prisoners confined in the Gaol during the year, it was frequently necessary to locate 3 prisoners together in small cells constructed for the accommodation of one only; the capacity of each cell being 760 cubic feet. The overcrowded state of the Gaol is somewhat serious, particularly in the hot weather when sickness is prevalent. The building of a larger prison is receiving the attention of the Government.

13. The conduct of the staff has been good.

14. Mr. MAY proceeded to England on leave on the 5th September, 1901, from which date I assumed charge of the Gaol.

15. With the usual returns, I append, for the first time, a report showing expenditure for the staff, and maintenance of prisoners for the year 1901.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient Servant,

The Honourable

The COLONIAL SECRETARY.

Restriction on Importation of Dogs.

An imported dog shall, for a period of six calendar months after its landing, be detained and isolated at the expense of its owner upon premises in the occupation, or under the control, of a veterinary surgeon, which shall have been previously approved in writing by the Board for that pur- pose, and such premises are in this Order referred to as the "place of detention."

    (2.) During the said period the dog shall not be moved from the place of detention except to another place of detention or to a vessel for exportation, and in either case only with a licence of the Board authorizing such movement.

(3.) This Article shall not apply to (a) an imported dog which is shown to the satisfaction of the Board to be a bonâ fide performing dog; or (b) to an imported dog which is intended to be exported from Great Britain within forty-eight hours after its landing; but every such dog shall be subject to the other Articles of this Order.

(4.) This Article shall come into operation on the fifteenth day of March, one thousand nine hundred and two.

Conditions of Licence.

3. The Board may insert in any licence granted by them under this Order authorizing the land- ing of an imported dog such conditions as they think necessary or desirable for the following purposes: (i.) for prescribing and regulating the detention and isolation of the dog so far as the same is

not prescribed and regulated by this Order;

(ii.) for prescribing the person by whom and the premises on which the dog shall be detained

and isolated;

(iii.) for regulating the movement of the dog to the place of detention, or vessel for exportation, and for prohibiting or regulating its movement during a period of six calendar months after its landing, or until its exportation, as the case may be;

(iv.) for prescribing the confinement of the dog in a suitable hamper, crate, box, or other recept-

acle during the movement of the dog by railway, or along a highway or thoroughfare ; (v.) for prescribing the mode of isolation of the dog;

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22ND FEBRUARY, 1902. 179

(vi.) for prescribing the muzzling of the dog;

Withdrawal of Licence in cases of Default.

  5.-(1.) If the owner or person in charge of an imported dog is convicted of an offence under this Order in relation to the dog, the Board, or an Inspector of the Board, may give notice to such owner or person in charge, requiring him to move the dog to a vessel for exportation within a time specified in such notice.

  (2.) If the owner or person in charge of the dog after receipt of such notice, fails to move the dog as required by the notice, he shall be deemed guilty of an offence against the Act of 1894.

Re-landing prohibited of Imported Dogs moved to Vessels for Exportation.

  6. An imported dog which has been moved to a vessel for exportation in accordance with a licence or notice under this Order shall not be relanded in Great Britain without a licence of the Board autho rizing such landing.

Proceedings under Customs Acts for Unlawful Landing.

8.-(1.) If any person lands or attempts to land a dog in contravention of this Order, he shall be liable, under and according to the Customs Acts, to the penalties imposed on persons importing or attempting to import goods the importation whereof is prohibited by or under the Customs Acts, without prejudice to any proceedings against him under the Act of 1894 for an offence against that

IMPORTATION OF DOGS ORDER OF 1901.

T. H. ELLIOT, Secretary.

The Board of Agriculture desire to draw the attention of Local Authorities and of the public generally to the provisions of this Order, which regulates the landing in Great Britain of dogs brought from any country except Ireland, the Channel Islands, or the Isle of Man.

This Order, which consolidates and amends the Importation of Dogs Order of 1897 and the Orders amending it, takes effect from the 1st of January, 1902, except as to Article 2 which is par- ticularly referred to hereafter. It will be observed that no imported dog is allowed to be landed in Great Britain without a licence of the Board of Agriculture obtained previous to landing.

Until the 15th March next, the landing of dogs will be authorized under substantially the same conditions as to detention and isolation as have hitherto obtained. After the 15th March the landing of dogs will be subject to Article 2 of the Order, which expressly provides that every imported dog must be detained and isolated at the expense of its owner upon premises in the occupation or under the control of a veterinary surgeon, which shall have been previously approved in writing by the Board for that purpose, for a period of six calendar months, during which period the dog may not be moved from the place of detention except as provided in that Article. This Article does not apply in

182 THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 22ND FEBRUARY, 1902.

the case of an imported dog which is intended to be exported from Great Britain within forty-eight hours, or of a performing dog, with regard to the detention and isolation of which special conditions will be imposed by the Licence authorizing its landing.

CONDITIONS OF LICENCES.

   The Board may insert in any Licence granted by them authorizing the landing of an imported dog, such further conditions as they think necessary or desirable for prescribing and regulating the detention and isolation of the dog, upon the place of detention authorized in the Licence, or for any of the purposes set forth in Article 3 of the Order.

   Every dog which is brought to Great Britain from any other country except Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man, and which is not accompanied by a Licence issued by the Board of Agri- culture authorizing the landing of the dog in Great Britain must at all times while on board a vessel in a port in Great Britain be (a) secured to some part of the vessel by a collar and chain and muzzled with a wire cage muzzle so constructed as to render it impossible for such dog while wear- ing the same to bite any person or animal, but not so as to prevent such dog from breathing freely or lapping water; or (b) confined in an enclosed part of the vessel from which the dog cannot escape. And if any such dog die, or be lost from such a vessel, the person in charge of the dog is required. forthwith to give notice of such death or loss to the Board.

   The Memorandum A 160/A as to the Importation of Dogs into Great Britain from abroad, dated: the 8th August 1900, will cease to have effect when Article 2 of this Order comes into operation.

   In order that as little inconvenience as possible may be caused in the enforcement of the Order, the Board trust that local authorities will assist them by taking steps to make its contents known as widely as possible in their districts.

DISEASES OF ANIMALS ACTS 1894 AND 1896.

IMPORTATION OF DOGS INTO GREAT BRITAIN.

   On and after the 1st day of January, 1902, the landing in Great Britain of dogs from abroad. will only be permitted subject to the provisions of the Importation of Dogs Order of 1901, which in effect requires that after the 15th of March next every imported dog shall be detained and isolated at the expense of its owner upon premises in the occupation or under the control of a Veterinary Surgeon for a period of six calendar months from the date of landing.

Until the 15th of March next dogs will be allowed to land upon conditions substantially the

same as at present.

   The disease of Rabies having ceased to exist both in Great Britain and in Ireland, it has become of the utmost importance that the most effective steps should be taken to prevent its re-introduction from abroad, and the Board have felt it incumbent upon them, in the interests of dog owners in this country, to amend their regulations in the manner above described and to warn persons who may propose to travel that after the above mentioned date the isolation and detention of dogs on the pri- vate premises of their owners can no longer be sanctioned.

   By the Dogs (Landing from Ireland) Revocation Order of 1901, the restrictions on the movement. of dogs between Ireland and Great Britain have been removed.

SALARIES OF CIVIL SERVANTS.-His Excellency the GOVERNOR addressed the Council as follows:- "Before we proceed to the orders of the day, gentlemen, there is a matter I wish. to say a word or two about-namely, a telegram I have received from the Secretary of. State for the Colonies. In October last the estimates of expenditure went home and at that time we were aware that in the Straits Settlements and the Federated Malay States an increase had been granted in the salaries and emoluments of the Officials. However there was no provision made for any increase here further than that recommended at the time by the Committee. A short time afterwards I received from the Secretary of State a copy of the despatch that had been sent to the Straits Settlements in answer to the representations made by the Straits Settlements and Malay States. The Secretary of State had determined that in future all appointments the emoluments of which were over $1,200 a year shall be paid in sterling, as also the salaries of the European Police, Prison Warders. and other subordinate positions occupied by Europeans appointed from home, but as regards the

present holders of these there were certain exceptional advantages at present, such as the advantage of officials receiving when they are on leave their half-pay at 3/8 a dollar, and pension at the same rate. [The COLONIAL SECRETARY-4/- on leave and 3/8 on pension.] Yes. Well, the Secretary of State felt that he could hardly interfere with these advantages enjoyed by the present holders. So, as far as the present holders of these were con- cerned, they received the option whether they would have their salaries in future paid in sterling at what the practical valuation of the sterling was, taking into consideration the possible advantage to pension pay, but that they would have the alternative of an increase not on the pay but that while actually serving in the Colony the compensation allowance for exchange should be given on the whole instead of the half salary. That increase was not to be calculated in either their leave or their pension, but was to be a purely local increase while they continued to serve in the Colony, during the lifetime of the present holders. Well, when that came before me, in that despatch the Secretary of State informed me that he did not at present propose to increase the salaries of the officials in Hongkong until he was satisfied as to the financial position of Hongkong. When I received that despatch I saw at once the position in which this Colony would be placed if the officials in the Straits were to be paid better than the corresponding positions were worth in Hongkong. Both Colonies are recruited, and will be recruited in the future, by Cadets who go through the same examinations, and in accordance with their positions on the list these Cadets have the option of choosing where they go. Naturally, if we are the worst paid Colony in the East, we must expect to get simply the remainder.

the remainder. The most successful will naturally choose the best paid position. I wrote in answer to that and I pointed out this to the Secretary of State and also that we find it extremely difficult to get recruits for our Police, Water Police, and Warders, or any position for which we want Europeans in this Colony. I pointed out further the position in which this would place Hongkong. Furthermore, I went into the question of the financial position of the Colony, and-I am speaking entirely to the unofficial members of this Council-I think it is unnecessary for me to say anything upon that matter. Anybody who has seen the list of public companies, shares, and other matters which are within the cognisance of anybody who chooses to take the trouble to inquire, must see that the operations in this Colony are very much larger than in Singapore ; and I think as far as I, after nearly three years' experience, can gather, the financial position of this Colony is as sound as that of any in the British Empire. I pointed out that, and in answer to that I received this telegram from the Secretary of State on the 12th :- Referring to Despatch 443, I agree to proposed grant to Government officials additional exchange compensation, to begin the first of next month, on condition laid down in the case of the Straits, and subject to consent by the Legislative Council, who must be warned that more revenue may be required.' He pointed out in his despatch that possibly very large votes would have to be taken as a consequence of a possible revisitation of the plague, also possi- bly as the result of the visits from the two experts coming out, and that it was right to put this before you.

But that being so, I place the matter before you. Every official member except myself is interested in this and it is, I need hardly say, a matter upon which they can neither speak nor vote. The following are the number of people who would be affected. There would be on the whole a total of 311 public officials affected by this--135 in the

Police, 26 in the Gaol, 17 in the Harbour Master's office, 27 under the Sanitary Board, 32 in the Public Works Department, 9 in the Colonial Secretary's Office, 10 in Queen's College, 24 in the Medical Department, etc.--and the amount that will be necessary to pay that increased exchange compensation during their service in the Colony would be about $120,000 a year, as far as I can see. These are the facts the only facts-I have and am able to place before you. My own view is that it would be very injurious to this Colony, if it were placed upon a basis of inferiority to the Straits Settlements and the Malay States, and further I may tell you that we have the greatest difficulty at the present moment with our present salaries in procuring men for the Gaol, the Police, the Water Police and those small appointments for which Europeans are required. The Colonial Secretary has placed in my hands a letter from the senior unofficial member, Mr. Chater. He states that he is sorry at being unable to be present and adds :-'I am very strongly of opinion that our Civil Service here should not be placed in a worse position than in Singapore, and I feel sure that the community would be of the same opinion.' That is all I have to say upon the subject, and I place it before you."

Honourable Dr. Ho KAL.--"I understand, Sir, the unofficial members are chiefly con- cerned in this matter and that the official members will neither dicuss nor vote."

His Excellency the GOVERNOR.-" No, they will not."

Dr. Ho KAI then addressed the Council, and moved the following resolution :-

"That the decision of the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies. regarding the further grant of exchange compensation to Civil servants of this Colony, subject to the approval of the Legislative Council, be approved by this Council."

Mr. BELL-IRVING seconded.

Mr. WEI YUK supported the resolution.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to provide for the more effectual control of Chair and Jinricksha Coolies in private employ.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Private Coolie Short title. Ordinance, 1902.

2. In this Ordinance, the word "Coolie means a Interpreta- Chinese employed as the bearer of a private chair or the tion. puller of a private jinricksha.

3. In the absence of any contract to the contrary, the Contract of contract of service between a coolie and his employer shall service be deemed to be a contract of service for one calendar presumed to

              be by the month at least and, unless then determined, shall be deem- month. ed to be a contract of service determinable at one calendar month's notice.

certain

4. In the absence of any contract to the contrary, every Undertaking coolie shall, by his contract of service, be deemed to have to perform contracted to perform such additional services as carrying services notes, running errands, and performing such other light implied in duties inside and outside the house as he may be called contract. upon by his employer to perform.

5. Every coolie who shall neglect his duty or absent Misconduct himself from his duty without the leave of his employer

              and penalty. without just cause (the onus of proof of which shall be upon such coolie), or shall leave his employer's service without giving one calendar month's notice to such employer, or shall disobey any lawful and reasonable order of his employer, or shall use any abusive or insulting language to his em- ployer, or shall behave abusively or insultingly to his employer, or be guilty of riotous or disorderly conduct, shall, upon summary conviction before a Magistrate, be liable to a penalty not exceeding fifty dollars and, in de- fault of payment, to imprisonment with or without hard labour for a period not exceeding three months.

201

Objects and Reasons.

Private chair and jinricksha coolies have almost in- variably in this Colony been hired by the month and the usual custom has been to provide them with free quarters on their employer's premises. Until recent times it was generally supposed that sub-section (3) of section 3 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1845, which dealt with misconduct on the part of domestic servants, applied to such private coolies. Doubts, however, arose as to whether they tech- nically came within the term "domestic servants," and in consequence there has of late been no control whatever over them. There is no reason why such coolies, residing on the premises, should be exempted from the penalty for misconduct to which house boys, house coolies and cooks have been liable for considerably more than fifty years in this Colony. This Ordinance places them accordingly on an equality with ordinary Chinese domestic servants in that respect.

Section 4 makes it clear that an agreement to perform the additional services which it has always been the custom for chair and jinricksha coolies to perform, is implied in the contract of service unless expressly excluded.

The misconduct of many of the coolies of the class men- tioned in this Ordinance has formed of late the subject of numerous complaints, and it is trusted that the provision of a penalty for such misconduct may conduce to some im- provement in this respect.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to amend The New Territories Land Court Ordinance, 1900, (No. 18 of 1900) and The New Territories Land Court Amend- ment Ordinance, 1901, (No. 27 of 1901).

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:

1. This Ördinance may be cited as The New Territories Land Court Amendment Ordinance, 1902.

2. Section 4 (15 a) of Ordinance No. 27 of 1901 is hereby repealed.

3. The following section, to be numbered 15A, is hereby inserted in the New Territories Land Court Ordinance, 1900, between section 15 and section 16 of that Ordinance :-

"15A. Whenever the Governor in Council shall decide ▾ that any land in the New Territories the ownership of which has not been determined by the Court ought to be resumed for a public purpose within the meaning of section 2 of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordinance, 1900, it shall be lawful for the Governor to proclaim by Notification in the Gazette that such land is required by the Government, and such land shall forthwith revert to the Crown and all rights of every claimant his assigns or representatives and of every other person in upon or over or in respect of such land or any part thereof shall thenceforth absolutely cease and determine.

Provided nevertheless that the Court shall proceed in due course to hear and determine every claim in relation to such land as if such land had not been acquired under this section, and that such claim or claims, if allowed, and their allowance shall be reported to the Governor who shall thereupon refer the matter back to the Court to decide and award what compensation shall be paid to the claimant or claimants and in what manner such compensation shall be apportioned between the different claimants if there is more than one, and the amount so awarded

by the Court as compensation, together with interest thereon at the rate of seven per cent. per annum from the date of the reverting of the land to the Crown, shall be paid by the Government to such person or persons as the Court may direct. The decision of the Court as to the amount of compensation shall be final.

*T

Objects and Reasons.

The Secretary of State desired the following alterations to be made in Section 4 (15 a) of the New Territories Land Court Amendment Ordinance, 1901, viz.:-

1st. The omission of the words "the acquisition of "

in the second line.

2nd. The substitution of the words " ought to be resumed for a public purpose within the meaning of Section 2 of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordinance, 1900," for the words, "is required in the public interests".

It has been deemed simpler to repeal the Section in question and to re-enact it with the above mentioned alterations. These amendments render the language less vague, and also introduce a definite reference to the Crown Lands Resumption Ordinance, 1900, which seems desirable.

5. All fees hitherto charged and received by the said Land Officer under the authority of the Colonial Govern- ment and accounted for by him to the Colonial Treasurer for the public purposes of the Colony, shall be deemed to have been legally charged and received by the said Land Officer.

Objects and Reasons.

Since the Ordinance for the Registration of Deeds, etc., in the Land Office (Ordinance. No. 3 of 1844) came into force, statutory provision has been made for the registration of a Lis Pendens (Ordinance No. 10 of 1856), and for the registration of its discharge, as well as for the issue by the Land Officer of a Certificate of entry of such discharge (Ordinance No. 2 of 1896).

Moreover, the Code of Civil Procedure, Ordinance No. 5 of 1901, requires a Writ of Foreign Attachment to be re- gistered in the Land Office, and makes provision for the filing in such office of a Certificate that the Writ has been dissolved, or that the judgment in the action has been satisfied (see section 462). Fees to be paid for these matters were fixed by the said Code.

It became, therefore, in any case desirable to amend the original List of Fees specified in Ordinance No. 3 of 1844, and to bring it into line with the present practice of the Office.

Some few fees seem also to have been received and paid over to the Colonial Treasurer, without express Statutory authority, the Land Officer acting on instructions received from time to time by the Government, as for instance in the case of the reasonable charges for parchment plans and for affixing the Public Seal to Crown Leases.

Ordinance No. 5 of 1888 authorizes the charge of $5 for the official Signature of the Governor, and it has been the practice of the Land Office to charge this fee for affixing the Public Seal to a Crown Lease which is also signed by the Governor, such practice having been authorized for more than fifty years. It is provided by this Ordinance that one fee shall cover both the Seal and the Signature.

It seemed better that all such fees should receive proper Statutory authority and their receipt heretofore be vali- dated and legalized.

The fees, in many instances, might, not unfairly, have been raised in view of the greatly diminished value of the dollar now, as compared with A.D. 1844; but this has only been done in one instance, namely, where deeds, etc., are registered relating to more than one Lot or section of a Lot. In some instances several Lots are included in one instrument and additional work is thereby thrown on the Land Officer. In such cases the registration fee is raised to ten dollars instead of five.

A

BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to further amend The Bankruptcy

Ordinance, 1891.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:

1. This Ordinance may be cited as The Bankruptcy Short title. Amendment Ordinance, 1902.

2. This Ordinance shall be read and construed as one Construction. with the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, (as amended by Ordinances No. 6 of 1892, No. 24 of 1895 and No. 2 of 1901) hereinafter called the principal Ordinance.

19

3. The word "debtor in section 4 of the principal Ordinance shall be deemed to include :-

Meaning of

the word "debtor" in section 4 of Ordinance

1901.

(a.) A person who is domiciled in the Colony. (b.) A person who within a year before the date of the No. 20 of

presentation of the petition has ordinarily resided or had a dwelling house or place of business in the Colony.

(c.) A person who, though not himself personally within the Colony, carries on business by an agent within the Colony and possesses assets therein.

In the case of a person who is not a British subject, the meaning of the word "debtor" is not confined to a person who is personally present in the Colony when he commits the act which, by the principal Ordinance, is made an act of bankruptcy.

Memorandum by the Attorney General, on the Bill entitled an Ordinance to further amend the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891.

The Bankruptey Amendment Ordinance, 1901, (No. 2 of 1901) was sent by the Secretary of State for the consider- ation of the Board of Trade.

It was returned with a copy of an opinion by Mr. MUIR MACKENZIE, which dealt, not only with the Hongkong Ordinances, but with the wider question of the desirability of modifying the Bankruptcy law in England and the Col- onies generally, so as to obviate the hardship to local cred- itors in such circumstances as those discussed by the House of Lords in the case of COOKE v. The C. A. VOGE- LER Co., Law Reports (1901) Appeal Cases p. 102.

The main object of the Bankruptcy Amendment Ordi- nance, 1901, was, however, to remedy another kind of hardship, which still more urgently required legislative action in Hongkong, viz., the case of firms carrying on business there, some of the partners being neither Britsh subjects nor domiciled in the Colony.

Referring, however, to the special Bankruptcy legislation of this Colony, Mr. MUIR MACKENZIE points out what he deems to be a singular defect in the Bankruptcy Amend- meut Ordinance, 1901, viz., that it does not deal with the case of a foreigner trading in his own name by an agent in the Colony. Cases of that kind occur seldom, if ever, among the Chinese in Hongkong, and the Ordinance in question was passed to meet the hardship disclosed by the local case of Re Kung Hing ex parte Ah Wee (July 9th, 1900). It was approved of both by the Chief Justice who tried the case in question and by the Chamber of Commerce.

Mr. MUIR MACKENZIE Suggests the desirability of an enactment providing that "a debtor" in section 4 of the Bankruptcy Ordinance, 1891, should mean that which, in the Appellant's argument in Cooke r. Vogeler it was con- tended it did mean, namely, a person who fulfilled the requirements of sub-section 1 (d.) of section 6 of the English Act of 1883, and that the meaning of " a debtor" should not, in the case of a foreigner carrying on business in the Colony, be confined to a person who is personally present in the jurisdiction when he does the act which by the Statute is made " 'an act of bankruptcy."

206

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

Section 4 of Ordinance 2 of 1901 made the wording of section 6 (1.) (d.) of our local Bankruptcy Ordinance pre- cisely similar to section 6 (1.) (d.) of the English Act.

Section 6 (1.) (d.) in both the English Act and the Hong- kong Ordinance, therefore, now reads as follows

(d.) The debtor is domiciled in the Colony or, within a year before the date of the petition, has ordinarily resided or had a dwelling house or place of business in the Colony.

The object of the present Ordinance is to make the fur- ther amendment pointed out by Mr. MUIR MACKENZIE as desirable.

There can be little doubt that Ordinance No. 2 of 1901, as supplemented by this Ordinance, effects a considerable improvement in our local law, having regard to the special circumstances of Hongkong.

The Lord CHANCELLOR in Cooke v. Vogeler stated :--

"I am by no means prepared to say that it might not be a reasonable thing to apply the English law of bankruptcy to a trader who, though himself person- ally abroad, exercised a trade through the instru- mentality of an agent, and possessed assets in this country capable of being reached by bankruptcy ad- ministration."

It is satisfactory that, at present, the Bankruptcy Amend- It deals ment Ordinance, 1901, has not been disallowed. chiefly with Bankruptcy proceedings against firms, and Chinese firms in this Colony are very numerous and are constituted in a mauner peculiar to China, and legislation applicable to the special requirements of this Colony, though perhaps not suited to the business conditions obtaining in England and most of the other Colonies, is necessary here.

Although, in England, a firm cannot be adjudicated Bankrupt there is no reason why this should be so in Hong- kong. The chief practical effect here of such an adjudica- tion is to render the joint and several property of all the partners, so far as it can be got at, available to pay debts, and for years previous to the local decision referred to (July, 1900) Chinese firms had been adjudicated Bankrupt without any special difficulty arising.

In practice, property in China, out of the jurisdiction, cannot be obtained by the trustee; and, as regards any alteration of status, a Chinaman out of the jurisdiction who does not come to Hongkong would probably care little for the adjudication and not be sensible of any change of status whatever.

The chief advantage is that the joint property of the firm in this Colony would be affected, and while it is often most difficult to ascertain who the partners really are and what property each may individually possess, it is much easier to ascertain whether certain property belongs to the firm (with its fancy name) or not.

Attorney General.

A BILL

ENTITLED

An Ordinance to further amend the Supreme Court Summary Jurisdiction Ordinance, 1873.

Be it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:

1. This Ordinance may be cited for all purposes as the Short title. Supreme Court Summary Jurisdiction Amendment Ordi- nance, 1902.

2. Section. 2 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873 is hereby Amendment amended by substituting for the words and figures "13 of of section 2 1873" the words and figures "5 of 1901".

of Ordinance No. 14 of

1873.

3. The definition of "Principal Register" which occurs Ibid. in section 2 of Ordinauce No. 14 of 1873 is hereby repealed and the following definition is substituted there- for :-

66

Principal Register shall mean the Cause Book kept under the Code of Civil Procedure, 1901.

4. Section 25 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873 is hereby amended by substituting for the word "twelve" the words "twenty-four".

Amendment of section 25

of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873.

5. Section 35 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873 is hereby Repeal of repealed.

section 35 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873.

6. Section 50 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873 is hereby Amendment amended by substituting for the words "at present" the of section 50 words "from time to time".

of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873.

207.

Objects and Reasons.

""

The Code of Civil Procedure, 1873, was repealed by Section 2. Ordinance No. 6 of 1901, and the new Code of Civil Pro- cedure (Ordinance No. 5 of 1901) has taken its place. As, however, in the Interpretation clause of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873, dealing with Summary Jurisdiction, the expression "Code of Civil Procedure was defined to mean 66 the Code of Civil Procedure introduced by Ordinance No. 13 of 1873," some difficulty has arisen, and it has been thought desirable to leave no doubt that the provisions of the old Code of Civil Procedure no longer apply to the Supreme Court in its Summary Jurisdiction and to make the provisions of the new Code applicable.

Under the new Code of Civil Procedure, no register of Section 3. suits is established: its place is taken by a Cause Book. (See section 690 of the new Code.)

The twelve hours' notice of special defence has been Section 4. found in practice to be too short.

Section 35 of Ordinance No. 14 of 1873 appears to be Section 5. superfluous, now that the new Code is substituted for that of 1873.

The alteration in section 50 is necessary to make the Section 6. forms in use at any time in the Supreme Court applicable

to the Summary Jurisdiction of that Court.

WATER STORAGE CAPACITY IN HONGKONG AND 'KOWLOON.

Replies to the Honourable T. H. Whitehead's Questions.

With regard to the City of Victoria, a reservoir and catchwater at Wongneichong Gap were com- pleted in April, 1899. The maximum capacity of the reservoir is 33,994,000 gallons.

No other works for adding to the storage for the City Supply have been completed in the years. mentioned.

One additional storage reservoir at Tytam has been begun and preparations are being made to commence another. The combined capacity of these two will be about 100,000,000 gallons.

   With regard to Kowloon, no storage in the ordinary sense of the term has hitherto existed, the works originally constructed consisting of dams across the outlets from three valleys of considerable area to prevent the escape of water underground, provision being also made for conveying the water thus intercepted into wells, from which it flows through pipes to the pumping station.

One of the dams was practically reconstructed and was also raised 5 feet, the work being com- pleted early in 1899.

A main was laid and small dams were constructed across several stream-courses at Cheung Sha Wan in the New Territory, the work being completed in 1900, to render the water of the streamis available for waterworks purposes. No storage reservoir was constructed as there was no suitable site. for one.

In 1901, several improvements and modifications were made in the Cheung Sha Wan Intake and main in order to supply the whole districts of Mongkoktsui and Yaumati from this source, thus leav- ing the supply obtained from the original works available for the remainder of the Peninsula. This arrangement has worked satisfactorily.

The second part of the question is in a form which does not admit of being answered exactly.

   The scheme for increasing the supply for the City obtainable by gravitation from Pokfulam and Taitam, towards the carrying out of which the steps mentioned above are being taken, as described in Mr. COOPER'S Report, is estimated to yield 4,000,000 gallons per day, or sufficient for a population of 266,000 people. The present population is estimated at 213,000.

The new scheme for Kowloon, for the carrying out of which tenders are now being invited, is estimated to yield 1,575,000 gallons per day, or sufficient for a population of 157,000 people. The population of the districts to be supplied, as ascertained from the Census of 1901, amounts to 66,244.

SIR,

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 3rd September, 1901.

I have the honour to forward a copy of a petition received by me and signed by over one hundred of the principal British inhabitants of the Colony.

2. The petition prays that a school may be established for Europeans only. The statements made in the petition are in accordance with the facts, and hav- ing very carefully considered the question myself, and submitted the petition for examination and report by the late and present Inspectors of Schools, I find my- self forced to the conclusion that, however opposed the proposal may be to the accepted theory of State aided education, the establishment of a school for Euro- pean children is in this Colony highly expedient.

3. Putting aside the deteriorating moral effects of the mixture of the two races in school-a deterioration I venture to say not confined to European boys- it is evident that European scholars who are obliged to regulate their progress by that of their Chinese classmates, who are painfully endeavouring to assimilate West- ern education taught to them in a foreign language, are placed at a serious disad- vantage. Under such a system I can understand the failure of the scheme of Government Scholarships adopted during the administration of Sir George Bowen, and abandoned in 1893.

4. It is important for the Colony that English boys should learn Chinese, and that Chinese should learn English, but the result of the present system of mixed teaching is that English boys leave the Government School half instructed and Chinese boys leave knowing neither their own language nor English. The report of the last examination held at the Queen's College, which I attach,* shows this clearly.

5. I have spoken on this subject many times with the Bishop of Victoria, who has had a long experience of educational matters in China, and I agree with him that English should be taught to the Chinese students as a special subject; that they should have some knowledge of the characters of their own language before they enter upon the study of English and that their instruction in the ordinary Western school curriculum should be imparted in the Chinese language. There are, I understand, an ample supply of suitable books for the purpose translated into the Chinese language.

6. In the same way Chinese-at least colloquial Chinese-could be taught as a subject to English boys, for whom it would be necessary if the sphere of their future labours were to be in the Far East.

7. It must be remembered that the children for whose education the estab- lishment of a European School is desired are the children of respectable parents. who cannot afford to send them home and who, in many cases, are driven by the present system to the abandonment of their education as, in their opinion, the least of two evils.

   8. I enclose a copy of the observations of the Inspector of Schools upon the petition. Mr. IRVING roughly calculates the cost of a school such as that pray- ed for at $4,000 a year over and above the fees. This amount is not large. It might be reduced by increasing the fees, but having regard to the exceptional cost of living for Europeans of the class for whom the school is desired, I question if higher fecs could be paid without serious inconvenience.

   9. A petition on the subject of separate education has also been received from a number of Chinese gentlemen who pray for the establishment of a school where higher fees than those paid at the Queen's College may be charged. They are anxious to avoid the association of their children with the poorer classes at Queen's College and are willing to pay fees sufficient to support the school without cost to the Colony, but they require the assistance of Government so as to secure a proper succession of Masters. I shall address you on this subject in a separate despatch.

   10. The present petition I venture to strongly recommend for your consideration.

Enclosure No. 1.

HENRY A. BLAKE,

Governor.

To His Excellency

SIR,

Sir HENRY BLAKE, G.C.M.G.,

Governor, etc., etc.

   We, the undersigned residents in Hongkong, beg to call your Excellency's attention to the following facts with regard to Education in Hongkong, in the hope that means may be found for the provision of Education for the European children in the Colony, better than exist at present.

   1. The need of suitable Education for European children in the Colony is now very great. The European population is steadily increasing. The number of European children in the Colony between the ages of 5 to 16 (inclusive), as shown by the recent Census, is 175 males and 202 females. Of these a very large proportion are the children of parents of small means, including many em- ployés of the Government, who cannot afford either a private education, or to send their children to Europe for schooling. To these a school in the Colony where a suitable education can be obtained is an absolute necessity.

   2. At present no suitable education for European children, other than Por- tuguese, is provided in the Colony. This statement may seem at first somewhat surprising in view of the number of schools maintained or assisted by the

.

ONGKON

229

Government in which "a European education" is said to be "given in a Euro- pean language." We venture, however, to think that the following considerations. will show that our statement is not inaccurate :-

(a.) The schools in the Colony assisted by Government are 96 in number.

Of these, 70 schools are in Class I, "in which a Chinese education is given"; 3 schools are in Class II, in which "a European education is given in the Chinese language." The schools in these two classes are obviously not available for European children. The schools in Class III, "in which a European education is given in any European language," are 23 in number. But in the great majority of these schools the masters are Chinese only; and these Chinese masters are not only incompetent to give a European education to European children, but also habitually use their own language as the medium of instruction in explaining the English books, which they teach, to their pupils. Such schools are, therefore, also not available for Europeans. There are only two Grant-in-aid Schools in Class III which have English teachers, and are open to Europeans. In addition to the schools in these three Classes, there are the Queen's College and the Belilios Public School maintained by the Government, in which there are English teachers; and also eleven schools maintained by the Government, in which there are only Chinese teachers. Thus of a total of 109 schools there are only 4 available for English children.

(b.) We consider that even in those four schools in which there are English teachers, European boys cannot secure a proper education. Educa- tion should include both the acquirement of knowledge, and also the formation of character. In both these respects we consider that the education of the European children suffers very much from the fact that Europeans and Asiatics are mixed, and the European child has to be educated side by side in the same class with large num- bers of Asiatics.

As regards the acquirement of knowledge, this mixture of races operates very injuriously upon the European. The Chinese come to these schools to learn English, not to acquire general knowledge. In his report for 1866, Mr. STEWART, who was the Headmaster at the Central School and Inspector of the Government Schools, wrote: "Nothing seems to find favour with the Chinese which does not bear a market value. Hence the comparative success of the Central School, English being convertible into dollars."() The following year "the Principal of of St. Saviour's College dwelled especially on proving the difficulties one meets here in educating Chinese. They don't study for the sake of acquiring know- ledge, but for the sake of dollars and to enable them to earn money, and the Very Rev. Father anticipated that with very few exceptions we would never succeed in having Chinese conversant with our Sciences, but we must content ourselves with forming clerks and compradores."(2) In his Report for 1899, the late Inspector of Schools explains the more regular attendance at the schools in which English is taught, as compared with the Chinese schools, by the fact that "the education given is a special one having a distinct money value."

                                    We do not wish to call in question the wisdom of the Chinese in this matter; but we

I would point out that in a school in which the "ty of boys are Chinese,

who come to learn English and not for the sake of acquiring knowledge, the European boy, who comes to acquire knowledge and not to learn English, must be at a very serious disadvantage. That the Chinese boys often do better than

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

  European boys in the examinations at such schools does not militate, as it might at first sight seem to do, against this statement; for the Chinese boys have undoubted ability, and, moreover, they far outnumber the English boys, and are of much more advanced age than their European class-mates. The methods of education, moreover, have to be adapted to the instruction of the Chinese, and many an English boy is of necessity kept back whilst instruction is laboriously imparted to those who have a very inferior knowledge of the medium of instruc- tion. The above remarks apply also to the so-called "Foreign Classes" in the Queen's College, where Europeans and non-Chinese Asiatics are mixed. (1)

    As regards the formation of character, it is not easy to write without the risk of giving offence to our Chinese neighbours. It is not our wish to do this, for we gladly recognise the worth, and high character, of many of our Chinese fellow-residents in the Colony. But the Chinese boys in the schools are numbered by thousands, large numbers of whom, be it noticed, come from the mainland, and are in no way connected with the Colony; and the ordinary standards of truth, honour, and morality amongst the masses of the Chinese people undeniably differ very widely from our European standards. Chinese children are fully conversant with many matters which are purposely kept from the knowledge of European children. Constant contact with Chinese, both in class-room and play-ground() must affect the formation of the character of the European boy; more especially as the average age of the European boy is much below that of the Chinese, and the younger are always apt to follow the older. It is a note- worthy fact that some of our most respected Chinese fellow-residents have recently started a school for their own children, because they do not think it desirable that they should be thrown into constant contact with the boys in the Queen's College. What is not desirable for Chinese boys in this respect is not desirable for Europeans; but the Europeans who have to send their children to the existing mixed schools, have not the wealth to enable them to imitate the Chinese in this matter of starting a school for themselves.

3. "Perhaps," said Mr. STEWART in his Report for 1870, "the greatest educational want in Hongkong is that of a school or schools for European and American children of both sexes.

The school need not be à free one. After the preliminary expenses of site and building, with which the Government might fairly charge itself, the fees would go far to make the school self-supporting Under whatever regulations it might ultimately be placed, such a school is very much wanted, and it is a matter of astonishment that parents have not long ago made a strenuous movement in this direction."(3) If the want existed in 1870, much more does it exist in 1901, when the number of European children has greatly increased.

increased. Efforts have been made to meet the want, notably in the case of the Hongkong Public School," which was commenced in 1880. This school was started by an influential committee; it had the advantage of good school-rooms provided free of rent in St. Paul's College; but it failed. The chief reasons of its failure were as follows:-First, The Government Grant-in- aid being calculated for schools with large numbers of Chinese pupils and with Chinese teachers, was wholly inadequate to help a school with a smaller number. of pupi and with European teachers: Secondly, The fees that could be charged were necessarily low. For these two reasons it was necessary to raise a large a dual subscription in the Colony for the support of the school. Then, in the third place, it was a matter of very great difficulty for the managers, who of

Could any plan be devised more calculated to render a boy listless and inattentive throughout the rest of his school course?

(2) A senior master in ue Queen's College stated that he sent his son to be taught there, but always took good care to keep his son in his own room away from the Chinese boys during the mid-day recess. It is a noteworthy fact that the European masters in these mixed schools have, without exception, sent their own children elsewhere for education.

course had not the control of a large staff of teachers, as the Government has, to retain a teacher permanently at the school; the attractions of Government posts, and other causes, leading to frequent vacancies in the post of teacher. The same cases would operate now on any, private endeavour. They simply confirm the fact, now well recognised at home, that for the effective carrying on of education the State must undertake the work. The Public School in Shanghai, with 230 pupils, of whom 80 per cent. are European, the rest being Eurasian and quarter- Eurasian, could not be carried on without an Annual Grant from the Municipal Government of Tls. 4,000 with certain special grants in addition.

                               In. Hongkong, as in Shanghai, low fees could be charged; but experience has proved that Mr. STEWART'S anticipation that such a school might be nearly supported by the fees was too sanguine; and in these days it is useless to argue that necessary education should be provided by charitable contributions and not by the rates.

4. It has been urged against the proposal to found a school for Europeans only, at the cost of the rate-payers, that it would be "Class Legislation." As a matter of fact the present system is one "Class Legislation" in favour of the Chinese as against the Europeans. All the schools in Class I and Class II and almost all the schools in Class III are available for the Chinese only. The Government has just voted $9,000 to build a school in Yaumati, and that in spite of the fact that others wished to establish such a school, asking for nothing more than a Government Grant-in-aid. It is idle to say that that school and scores of other schools maintained or supported by Government are available for Chinese and Europeans alike. Even the schools in which English is taught, wherǝ they have Chinese teachers, and instruction carried on in the Chinese language, are no more available for Europeans for the purpose of education, than the sea is available for them as a place of residence. It is true that a large proportion of the rates is paid by the Chinese. It is equally true that no inconsiderable proportion is paid by Europeans. The Chinese are bountifully provided by the Government with an education such as they desire. The Europeans are not. We do not grudge the Chinese the advantages given to them: we only ask for similar advantages for Europeans. This Colony is a composite one. Both Europeans and Chinese are absolutely essential for its very existence. By 'all means let the Chinese have the advantage of a good education; but we cannot believe that it is wisdom or justice on the part of the Government to make it impossible for Europeans of small means to remain in the Colony unless they are prepared to forego a proper education for their children.

5. It does not fall within our province to enter into details as regards the character and management of such a school as is suggested; but there are certain points of importance, arising from the peculiar circumstances of Hong- kong to which we think it well to call your Excellency's attention.

(a) In view of the fact that there are many Europeans in Hongkong who require something more than a Primary Education for their children, we think that a school for Europeans ought to combine both Primary and Secondary Education. The scale of fees might easily be adjusted in such a way, that those who desired a higher education should pay higher fees. It must be remembered that the Queen's College provides the Chinese with more than a Primary Education.

(b.) We consider that it should be possible for the children to obtain

Christian teaching in the school. At present the only religion taught in the Government Schools is Confucianism! Europeans

may justly claim that their children should i

tures should be given by the Ministers of various Denominations to the children of such parents as might wish for it, would in our opinion be essential.

(c.) In view of the manner in which the European population is scatter- ed, and the difficulty of locomotion, especially in the suminer, we consider that it would be necessary to make some arrangement for the boarding of some of the children. This is very largely done in Government Schools in India.

   6. In conclusion, and on account of the foregoing considerations, we venture to appeal to your Excellency for the establishment of a school for Europeans only, where people of small means may be able to obtain a suitable education for their children. Whatever may be advanced in argument as a matter of theory, we do not believe that any European in the Colony, from your Excellency downwards, can really consider that the system of mixing a small number of European children with vast numbers of Asiatics in the same schools is really beneficial. As a matter of practical politics such a school as we have advocated is most urgently needed. We most earnestly hope, therefore, that your Excellency will be able to give a favourable response to our appeal.

Notes on the attached Petition of the Residents of Hongkong, praying for the establishment of a School for the Use of the Childern

of European Residents exclusively.

With reference to the question whether such a school should be established by the Government of Hongkong, the following three points must be settled :---

A. Is there any inherent objections to such a school the ground that, while supported by general taxation, it would be for the benefit

of one class only?

B. If justifiable in principle, is it necessary ?

C. If necessary, what kind of school should it be?

A. As I understand the matter, public funds may be devoted to that will add to the strength or wealth of the Colony such objects ar tion of batteries and forts, public works, and the equipment of the ris tion with knowledge and character enabling them to subserve the gene

234

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

Now, as to this last object, there is one section of the community perhaps of more vital importance than any other, and that is the members of the mechanical and engineering trades, the skilled British labour in the dockyards and manufac- tories, the engineers on local steamers and steam-tramways. They are the back. bone of the Colony in time of peace, and their professional knowledge would be a potent factor in its defence in war time. Many of them are already members of the Engineer and other Companies of the Volunteer Force.

I base my justification of such a school as is proposed principally on the good it would do the Colony by strengthening this vitally important class. To justify its creation, such a school must shew itself an addition to the local and imperial armoury it is no question of granting a compassionate allowance to one section of the community, however deserving.

:

B.-There are in the Colony, according to the recent Census, 175 boys and 202 girls between the ages of 5 and 16. Few of these are children of the comparatively wealthy classes who can afford to live at the Peak. Most of them have parents of the professions above enumerated. To such parents there are three courses open. Either they can send their children home to be educated; or they can avail them- selves of the existing schools; or they can let their children grow up with- out instruction. As regards the first alternative, it is simply out of the question on the score of expense in most cases, the expense not only of sending them But in home but of the maintenance of two establishments out of one income. the few cases where they can be so sent home, they are probably lost to the The second alter- Colony it is at least as likely as not they will never return. native before them is to send their children to Queen's College or some other of the local schools. Apart from the educational question, and speaking of the climate, there seems no particular reason why children should not grow up in Hongkong. And it is hard to exaggerate the value to the Colony and the Empire's Far- Eastern interests which there would be in a thoroughly acclimatised, technically trained, well educated nucleus of mechanicians and engineers, who having lost nothing of the natural characteristics added thereto a knowledge of the Chinese language (such as they could hardly fail to pick up) and a full understanding of Chinese methods of business. At present this dream is unrealisable in part. One of two characteristics must be absent: the education must go or the character must suffer, though probably the requisite education is not attainable by any exist- ing means.

The character must suffer. I have the greatest respect for the many good qualities of the Chinese, and I feel that I can say without offence, that I should strongly object to send children of my own to attend a mixed school. The Right Reverend the Bishop of Victoria, who was for 20 years (I believe) Head of a Chinese Missionary College in Ning Po, and should know, if anyone does, is a signatory of the Petition, para. 2 of which expresses my meaning very clearly.

So universally is this opinion held that the second alternative is in practice. hardly an alternative at all. The children are brought up, or allowed to grow up, ignorant. The sons will be more ignorant still. When we might have had a strong full-blood. British community born to the soil, to carry on our commerce against American, German, and French competition in the Far East, we are lay- ing fo ourselves an unlearned, unskilful, unpatriotic generation of " white to be the standing disgrace of the Colony.

Assuming the school to be unobjectionable and necessary, it remains to hat its nature should be. The Petition asks for both Primary and Education. The necessity for the latter must be conceded if my view er is a correct one, and it should be carefully arranged to suit the prac- ments of the Colony.

What the cost to the Colony would be can hardly be estimated at present.

There would be considerable difficulty in finding a site. Unless it develops into a success, perhaps the Belilios Reformatory might be adapted to this use.

SIR,

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 24th September, 1901.

I have the honour to forward a letter received from eight of the leading Chi- nese gentlemen of the Colony, praying that facilities might be afforded them for securing for the children of the better class Chinese a good English education, their reasons for desiring a special school being given. I deferred dealing with this until the general question was being considered, but remembering that the better classes of Chinese are quite as anxious as any European to preserve their children from contact with children of a lower class, intimate communication with whom would be prejudicial to their moral character, I sympathise with the desire of the writers, and hope to receive authority to meet their views as well as those of the European Petitioners for a separate school.

2. The question might present itself that the wealthy Chinese could them- selves engage the teachers; but I do not think that they could secure the same class of teachers and the same continuity that would result from the employment of teachers by the Government.

3. I entirely agree with the remarks of the Inspector of Schools, and, if we can secure the attendance of the children of the Chinese upper classes, many of whom will if the schools succeed come down from China, and some of whom will probably form part of the official class of the future, the consequences may be far- reaching and the benefit to this country may amply repay the small outlay that the scheme demands. If the school turns out a success the fees can be raised so as to cover all the expense, for the class tor which the schools are intended is wealthy and can well afford to pay, I shall be glad to be authorized to enter upon this interesting experiment.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble pers

Enclosure No. 3.

PETITION FROM LEADING CHINESE GENTLEMEN OF THE COLONY

SIR,

FOR AN ENGLISH SCHOOL FOR THE EDUCATION OF THE

CHILDREN OF THE CHINESE UPPER CLASSES.

HONGKONG, 2nd March, 1901.

 On behalf of an important and influential section of the Chinese Community we desire respectfully to draw the attention of His Excellency the Governor to the urgent need for a suitable English School for the education of the children-both boys and girls of the upper classes of the Chinese resident in this Colony.

 2. The efforts of the Government have hitherto been directed almost exclu- sively to the spread of an elementary education among what may be called the lower and lower middle classes both Chinese and non-Chinese. But the higher and more thorough training of the children of the more well-to-do classes has never been provided for.

 3. The Queen's College and the Belilios Public School are excellent Govern- ment institutions in their way, but the exceedingly large number of pupils attend- ing these schools and the paucity of English teachers, and the indiscriminate and intimate intermingling of children from families of the most various social and moral standing, render them absolutely undesirable as well as unsuitable for the sons and daughters of respectable Chinese families.

 4. As Government Board Schools, the above institutions answer their purposes admirably, but, we submit that, in view of the large increase to the Chinese popu- lation of a Eigher social status and permanently residing in this Colony, it is time. that some provision should be made for a secondary education for their children.

 5. At present, Chinese, who wish to give their sons a good English education, have either to send them to England or the United States for a long period or to engage at great expense a private tutor, who after all may not be a trained teacher. In the first case the children are parted from their parents at a most impression- able age and in a very great risk of finding themselves unable on their return to resume their proper position in the family.

 6. The want is now increasingly felt of a school at which such a thorough knowledge of English could be obtained as would enable boys to leave school at a suitable age, and on proceeding to England to at once enter on the special course. of study prescribed for the profession which might have been selected for them by their parents.

7. The best interests of the family demand also that the liberal education of Chinese boys should be accompanied by a commensurate advance in the education of se girls, and it is for this reason that the scheme which we now beg to Excellency's most favourable consideration makes equal provision

expense entailed upon the Government by the adoption of the scheme first sight appear great, but we do not consider that it will be in any way of proportion to the results which are to be looked for. It is at present a con- stant complaint that, having received an education in the Government Schools, the Chinese have failed to assimilate to any extent English sympathies and ideas, and are ever backward in responding to the call of public duties. But we are confident that thorough education on the lines which we now suggest

soon remove all

cause for such complaint. Such an education will not only endow our young men and women with more open minds and greater public spirit, but will result in the more cordial co-operation of the British and Chinese nations and closer intercourse between them.

9. It is well said that "large outlay on education is, if wisely directed, far "from being necessarily open to the charge of extravagance. On the contrary, "an excellent system of public education is one of the best forms of national in- 66 vestment. In commercial and industrial efficiency, in a higher level of civic duty, "and above all, in the wider diffusion of moral culture and religious feeling, the "nation is amply repaid for what it spends."

10. We beg to subjoin a scheme which roughly represents our proposals. Should His Excellency deem them worthy of consideration, we shall be happy to discuss them more fully in a personal interview at any time that His Excellency may desire.

We have the honour to be,

I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No. 343 of the 3rd September, enclosing a memorial from certain British inhabitants of Hongkong asking that a Government School may be established for European children your despatch No. 380 of the 24th September, enclosing a letter fro Chinese residents asking that a suitable English School may be establis the assistance of Government, for the education of the boys and girls of the Cu. upper classes.

2. In view of your strong recommendation, and the arguments with which it is supported, I am prepared generally to approve of the adoption of both these proposals.

238

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

3. Before, however, any definite steps are taken towards the establishment of either school, I shall be glad to be furnished with further and fuller details of the initial and the annual cost of each school, so far as they can be foreseen at present.

    4. I think that it will be necessary for the Colonial Government to limit the amount of its building grant in the case of the proposed Chinese Higher School. I am very doubtful whether Government could afford to contribute a sum equal to or not much below $100,000, if so much were raised by private contributions.

5. You will doubtless also consider and report in due course how the estab- lishment of these two new schools will affect the Queen's College, and whether it will be possible to effect any reduction of the expenditure on the latter school.

6. I observe from the account of the system of education in Hongkong, which has been drawn up by Mr. IRVING for the Board of Education, that there is a school for sons of the troops in the Colony. If this is in any way controlled or supported by the military authorities, I presume that it will cease to exist on the opening of a Government School for European Children. I also assume that the British and American pupils at the Belilios Public School are likely to be trans- ferred to the new school.

7. It is of course understood that the new schools will be placed under the supervision of the Inspector of Schools.

COMMITTEE OF INQUIRY INTO THE ADEQUACY

OF THE

STAFF OF THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT.

We, the undersigned, were appointed by His Excellency the Governor to be mbers of a Committee of Inquiry into the Adequacy of the Staff of the Medical Department of the Colony.

2. We have accordingly proceeded on the lines laid down by the Government, and have conducted our inquiry with special reference to:--

(1.) The numerical strength of the staff of the Medical Department.

Appendix I.

(2.) The position and duties of the Principal Civil Medical Officer.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

The following is a list of witnesses from whom we have taken evidence in the course of our inquiry:

The Principal Civil Medical Officer and Superintend-

ent of the Government Civil Hospital, ............................Dr. J. M. ATKInson.

The Acting Assistant Superintendent of the Govern-

ment Civil Hospital,

The Medical Officer of Health,

The Deputy Health Officer of the Port,

.Dr. J. BELL.

.Dr. F. CLARK.

Dr. J. H. SwAN.

Dr. R. M. GIBSON of the Alice Memorial and Nethersole Hospitals.

A copy of the evidence given by them accompanies the report, which we beg to submit below for the consideration of His Excellency the Governor.

We have taken the second question which was to be dealt with first, as it is essential to determine the position of the Principal Civil Medical Officer before dealing with his staff.

REPORT.

Question 2.--The position and duties of the Principal Civil Medical Officer.

Answer. We are of opinion that the Medical and Sanitary Departments should be wholly separate and that the Medical Officer of Health should be independent of the Principal Civil Medical Officer. The Medical Department should be under the juris- diction of the Principal Civil Medical Officer who, however, should not be an adminis- trative officer only, but should retain his present position as Superintendent of the Gov- ernment Civil Hospital. The Sanitary Department should be under the administration of the Medical Officer of Health subject to the control of the Sanitary Board.

Question 1.-The numerical strength of the Medical Department.

 Answer.-After mature consideration we have come to the conclusion that the staff as at present constituted and consisting of :---

1 Principal Civil Medical Officer, who is also Superintendent of the Govern-

ment Civil Hospital;

3 Assistant Surgeons;

1 Health Officer of the Port;

is not sufficient to carry on the work of the Medical Department efficiently. In our opinion, 7 Medical Officers are required :

1 Principal Civil Medical Officer;

4 Assistant Surgeons; and

2 Health Officers of the Port;

the two last named being Government Officers, who should devote their whole time to Government work and should be forbidden to engage in private practice either ashore or afloat.

We have ascertained in the course of our investigations how much time is taken up with Government Medical work in the various branches of the Department, and we beg to submit the subjoined list of duties in tabular form to be assigned to the several officers, one for epidemic and the other for non-epidemic times.

1 Assistant Surgeon.

2 Health Officers of the Port-one to

We are of opinion, from evidence given, that, speaking generally, one of the above 7 officers could always be away on leave, his duties being arrange for by the Principal Civil Medical Officer.

We further consider that some closer supervision should be exercised over, or new rules drawn up for the regulation of, the absence on leave of the officers of the Govern- ment Medical Department with a view to at least arranging for the presence in the Colony during Plague time of the nearest approach to the full staff.

There should always be a Medical Officer on duty at the Government Civil Hospital, and during his tour of duty he should not be permitted to leave the Establishment un- less for an urgent professional call.

We would suggest that the two Health Officers of the Port divide the Port duties between them, and that during his hours of duty, the officer on duty should always be available for the Port work. One of the two should reside at Kowloon, and during the hours he is not on duty for Port work he should attend to the Kowloon Plague Hos- pital and Mortuary, and the Government subordinate officials resident at Kowloon.. During the hours when the other of the two is not on duty for Port work, he should be

employed at the Government Civil Hospital or as the Principal Civil Medical Officer may require. This latter officer might easily attend to the Hygeia during non-epidemic times when he is not engaged on Port duty.

It was stated by Dr. ATKINSON in the course of his evidence that "it is the inten- tion of the Government to have a medical inspection of all ships entering the Harbour." In framing our opinion as to the above mentioned staff for Port work, we have not allowed for the carrying out of this intention, which would necessitate a much larger staff.

 In conclusion, we consider that it is imperatively necessary that during epidemic times one Medical Officer should reside at the Kennedy Town Hospital.

E. D. C. Wolfe, Esq., (Secretary).

The Chairman.-Gentlemen, I presume it is clear what the Committee has been appointed for. It is to look into the adequacy of the Medical Staff of the Colony. As the instructions were not very definite, I wrote to the Colonial Secretary, and he sent me Appendix I. a letter which I have here (No. 2796 of the 31st October). Now what we are going to enquire into is: (1.) the numerical strength of the Staff of the Medical Department; and (2.) the position and the duties of the Principal Civil Medical Officer. I enquired whether we were to look into the question of salaries, and the Colonial Secretary replied.

in the negative. There are a lot of documents on the subject of the Medical Department which, I think, should be read. I will ask the Secretary to read them, with a view to leading up to the main questions.

       The Secretary then read a letter dated the 6th of June from Dr. J. BELL, Acting Adpendix u.Principal Civil Medical Officer, applying for another Assistant Surgeon. (No. 169).

The Chairman.-You had now better read this despatch from His Excellency to the Secretary of State.

Appendix III.

Appendix IV.

 The Secretary then read despatch No. 218 of the 10th of June from His Excellency to the Secretary of State, forwarding the Acting Principal Civil Medical Officer's appli- cation, and recommending it for approval for reasons stated.

 This was followed by Colonial Office Despatch No. 259 of the 7th August from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, approving of the appointment of a new Assistant Surgeon, who was to be appointed on a 3 years' agreement and not permanently.

The Chairman. This Assistant Surgeon has now been permanently appointed, I understand. But still another Assistant Surgeon is required. (Vide Appendix V, the Principal Civil Medical Officer's Report of the 18th September).

Colonel HUGHES.-Is that the Assistant Medical Officer of Health?

The Chairman.-No.

us.

Colonel HUGHES.-I don't think there is any necessity to do so.

The Chairman.-We now come to a paper containing an application for house allowance in lieu of free quarters by the Principal Civil Medical Officer, dated the 19th of September. Do you wish to have it read?

Colonel HUGHES.-No.

Mr. SHARP.-No.

A minute was then read dated 19th September and written by the Colonial Secretary to His Excellency, on the subject of Colonial Office Despatch 259 (Appendix IV) and the Principal Civil Medical Officer's Report of the 18th September (Appendix V), and proposing that a Committee should be formed to enquire into the needs of the Medical Department.

This was followed by His Excellency's Minute of the 20th of September in reply to the Colonial Secretary, and going into the subject matter of the Principal Civil Medical Officer's Report of the 18th September (Appendix V).

Appendix VIII,

The Chairman.---Finally, there is a letter No. 331 of the 21st October (C.S.O. 3203) from the Principal Civil Medical Officer requesting that the Female Venereal Ward be converted into a Ward for Destitute Chinese and Indians and that the Matron of the Female Venereal Ward be pensioned off. We had better read it though I don't know why it is included. I don't see that it comes within the scope of the enquiry at all.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

The only other business that remains to-day is to make some arrangement as to what procedure this Committee ought to adopt. I propose that, when we meet again shortly, we ask Dr. ATKINSON to give evidence, and, later on, Dr. BELL. Dr. THOMSON is away.

    Our enquiries will be limited to the number of Medical men wanted in the Colony, exclusive of the Sanitary Department.

Colonel HUGHES.-I understood the Colonial Secretary to say the Sanitary Depart- ment was to be included.

The Chairman.-What is Dr. CLARK? Is he the Medical Officer of Health ?

Colonel HUGHES.-Yes.

The Chairman.-Then the business resolves itself into two things-the position of the Principal Civil Medical Officer, and what his duties ought to be, and the number of Assistants he ought to have under him. We have to give our opinion as to whether he is to be an Administrative Officer, and have control of all the other Medical Officers, or not, and to state what his duties should be.

Dr. STEDMAN. We shall have to have Dr. CLARK's views on the Sanitary Board. Colonel HUGHES.-Why?

Dr. STEDMAN.-Because his views on the matter ought to be considered.

Mr. RICHARDSON.-He can state whether he thinks the Sanitary Board ought to be subordinate or not.

The Chairman.--We will ask him to attend.

It was agreed to meet again on Wednesday afternoon at four o'clock, and to request Dr. ATKINSON to attend.

The Committee then adjourned.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 6th June, 1901.

SIR,

I have honour to draw your attention to what I consider is a need, as far as the Medical Department of this Colony is concerned, in the hope that His Excellency will consider the demand legitimate and will give it his support.

I refer to the necessity of having another Assistant Surgeon attached to this Department permanently.

I need only mention the trouble we have just had in getting temporary assistance, and, in view of the fact that plague and small-pox are always likely to be with us, at any rate for many years to come, it will nearly always be one officer's work to attend to the Infectious Hospital for the greater part of the year, now that the nursing of and attendance on infectious cases has been placed on a proper footing by His Excellency.

Attendance on the wives and families of Government servants has also increased with the increase of the subordinate staff of the various departments.

Extra work in connection with malaria in the New Territory is constantly crop- ping up, and we will always be able in non-epidemic times to keep an additional officer usefully employed.

With the newer methods of observation, a knowledge of which we have acquired lately both in connection with malaria as well as other diseases, the Assistant Superin- tendent of the Hospital has his time much more fully occupied and is no longer so much available for outside work as formerly.

Medical men, like others, require leave occasionally, and for the next two years I trust, if permitted, both myself and Dr. THOMSON will be granted leave home so that the Department will be one short for that time, if we are to have a rest. I may mention that I am now doing my 16th consecutive summer in the tropics without any change.

For these reasons, therefore, I trust His Excellency may be induced to favour my suggestion, and if, as I presume it must be, it is referred home, to give it his approval.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient Servant,

J. BELL,

Acting Principal Civil Medical Officer.

SIR,

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 10th June, 1901.

I have the honour to inform you that the Acting Principal Civil Medical Officer has reported that, in his opinion, the appointment of another Assistant Surgeon, to be attached permanently to the Medical Department, is a pressing necessity.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

2. Great difficulty has been experienced during the present year in obtaining tem- porary assistance, and, in view of the danger that, for many years to come, plague and small-pox will probably be epidemic in this Colony, one officer will nearly always be required to attend to the Infectious Hospital for the greater part of the year.

3. The necessity for attendance on the wives and families of Government servants has increased with the increase of the subordinate staff in the various departments.

4. A considerable addition to the work of the Medical Department is occasioned by the prevalence of malaria in the New Territory, and in non-epidemic times it will always be possible to keep an officer usefully employed on such works. Moreover, as the result of the newer methods of observation in connection with malaria and other diseases, the Assistant Superintendent of the Hospital has his time very fully occupied and is no longer available for outside work as was formerly the case.

5. In view of these facts, I am of opinion that the time has come when another Medical Officer must be appointed, and I hope that, if you approve of my proposal, it may be possible for the officer selected to leave for this Colony at an early date.

6. The salary and house allowance will be the same as those granted to the Second and Third Assistant Surgeons, together with exchange compensation on salary.

 I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No. 218 of the 10th of June in which you request that another Assistant Surgeon may be appointed to be attached to the Medical Department, and to inform you that, in view of the necessity which apparently exists for a reconsideration of the present plan of organisation in the Medical and Sanitary Departments, I do not consider it advisable at present to make a new permanent appointment of the kind indicated.

 I am, therefore, proceeding to select an Assistant Surgeon who will be appointed on a three years' agreement, the Government having the option of retaining his services at the close of that period. Meanwhile, I shall be glad if you will furnish me with a general scheme showing the effect of recent new appointments in the Medical and Sanitary Departments and of any further proposals that it may be necessary to make as to the requirements of these Departments in Hongkong itself and in the New Territory.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

¡

SIR,

HONGKONG, 18th September, 1901.

With reference to C.O.D. No. 259, dated 7th August last, I have the honour to report as follows:--

The Medical Department as at present constituted consists of:-

Principal Civil Medical Officer, Dr. ATKINSON.

Three Assistant Surgeons, Drs. LowsON, BELL and THOMSON. Health Officer for the Port, Dr. JORDAN.

Deputy Health Officer for the Port, Dr. Swan.

Medical Officer of Health for the Town. Dr. CLARK.

Assistant Medical Officer of Health for the Town. Dr. PEARSE.

The Principal Civil Medical Officer, in addition to his administrative duties as head of the Medical Department, has at present to take charge of wards in the Government Civil Hospital.

He is also now President of the Sanitary Board.

As the administrative work of the Medical Department and of the Sanitary Board requires a great deal of care and consideration, it is, in my opinion, enough for one officer, and the Principal Civil Medical Officer should, therefore, be relieved of all executive work at the Hospital and his duties there limited to consultation work only.

The three Assistant Surgeons have to perform the duties of:-

Assistant Superintendent at the Government Civil Hospital, Medical Officer to the Lunatic Asylums, Medical Officer to the Maternity Hospital, Medical Officer to the Infectious Diseases Hospital at Kennedy Town and the Hospital Hulk Hygeia, Visiting Surgeon to the Tung Wah Hospital, Medical Officer to the Victoria Gaol, and Medical Attendant to the subordinate Government Officers with a salary under $2,000 a year.

These duties, in my opinion, cannot be efficiently performed by three Medical Officers.

For sake of comparison I would mention that, at the Wolverhampton and Stafford- shire General Hospital, where the in-patients in the year are 1,859 as against 3,030 in this Hospital, there are, to my personal knowledge, three Resident Medical Officers, and it must also be taken into consideration that, as a rule, there will generally be one Medical Officer away on leave.

Situated as we are in an isolated Island, with yearly recurring epidemics of plague to deal with, we cannot depend upon obtaining outside medical help when necessary. Fortunately this year we have been able to obtain assistance from the Indian Medical Staff Corps, owing to the war with China.

I have given the matter my earnest consideration, and, in my opinion, to carry on the multifarious duties of the Medical Department, we require at least two more Assist- ant Surgeons.

The

One is sanctioned in the present Despatch, temporarily for three years. second Assistant Surgeon, in my opinion, is required for the rapidly growing suburb of Kowloon where there are a number of resident Government Officers, Police, &c., and where this year a special Plague Hospital and a Public Mortuary have been erected, and to work this part of the Colony from the mainland involves great delay and loss of time.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

The above should be the minimum staff at my disposal.

 There are other medical requirements which this scheme does not comprehend. I refer to the medical service of such outlying places as Quarry Bay and Shaukiwan, both prosperous and rapidly growing villages or rather small towns; the population of Quarry Bay already exceeds 1,000 including a European staff of some fifty or sixty, and in addition a large Dockyard is being built by Messrs. BUTTERFIELD & SWIRE, which when finished will practically double the population.

 There are in addition the villages of Aberdeen, with its Dockyard and Paper Factory, and of Stanley, on the South side of the Island, and the many populous districts in the New Territory.

 These medical services might, in my opinion, be fulfilled by native Apothecaries holding some such qualification as the Licentiateship of the Madras University, as is so efficiently done in the Straits Settlements.

 A scheme for the obtaining and employment of such, I am submitting to His Excellency in another subject which I have been asked to report upon.

 Whilst dealing with this question, I would take the opportunity of drawing atten- tion to the pay of the Principal Civil Medical Officer; from the enclosed list of similar appointments in different Crown Colonies it will be seen that it does not correspond to that of a similar appointment elsewhere.

 Taking the Straits Settlements, the Principal Civil Medical Officer there receives $7,200 a year with house and horse allowance as against the pay here of $5,400 a year rising to $6,000.

 I would respectfully submit that the present pay is scarcely commensurate with the responsibility and the duties the Principal Civil Medical Officer has to perform as head of the Medical and the Sanitary Departments.

 I would also suggest that the Senior Assistant Surgeon be termed Superintendent of the Government Civil Hospital and that he receives a somewhat larger salary, say $4,800 a year, as he would be responsible for the working of the Government Civil Hospital, the Lunatic Asylums and the Maternity Hospital.

 In epidemic times one of the Assistant Surgeons should be Resident Medical Officer to Kennedy Town Hospital.

 This is now a necessity and one which it has not been able, with our small staff, hitherto to arrange for, and it can only be done if my suggestion that another Assistant Surgeon be obtained is approved of.

I attach a comparative statement of the Medical Staff here and at Singapore.

 Finally, I think the title of "Assistant Surgeon" as applied to the Officers of the Medical Department should be abolished and they be styled "Colonial Surgeons." The term "Assistant Surgeon" is now chiefly, if not entirely, used to designate native practitioners trained in India.

I have the honour to be,

Sir.

Your obedient Servant,

J. M. ATKINSON, Principal Civil Medical Officer.

YOUR EXCELLENCY,

Appendix VI.

Minute by the Honourable the Colonial Secretary.

This matter requires careful consideration. All departments should be properly manned, and if the Medical Staff is undermanned it should be strengthened. To faci- . litate a consideration of this question, I attach a Report of the Committee which consi- dered the Medical Establishment in 1895, the year after the great serious outbreak of plague in this Colony. I am inclined to think that a reference of this question to another Committee would be the most satisfactory method of dealing with it except that the only points to be decided now are:---

(1.) Whether a Second Assistant Surgeon should be appointed.

(2.) Whether the salary of the Principal Civil Medical Officer and Dr. BELL

should be increased.

Perhaps these points could be decided in Executive Council without much trouble.

Appendix VII.

:

Minute by His Excellency the Governor.

HONOURABLE COLONIAL SECRETARY,

Circulate for Executive Council. The matter will require careful consideration. My own view is that the P. C. M. O). should have administrative control of the entire Medical Departments including Health and Port Health Officers and be relieved of the duty of Medical Officer of the Government Civil Hospital. In the enumeration of the duties, I do not think there will be much work for a Medical Officer at Kowloon that would at present occupy his whole time; but it is a rapidly growing place and it may be well to have one there. The proposal as to the plague matshed was that it should be looked after by a Chinese practitioner trained in the College of Medicine bere, with a general supervision by a Government Medical Officer. I understand that the work of Kennedy Town Hospital would not take up all a Medical Officer's time and the Hygeia is no longer used as a hospital, Dr. BELL having reported that she is not required. She is therefore simply lying by as a receiving ship in case an infected vessel enters the port and has to be disinfected.

As to the question of salary, as the staff is at present approved, the Medical Staff of Hongkong costs $25,920 as against $24,000 in Singapore, and if the additional Assistant be asked for and approved, the cost of Hongkong Staff will be $29,520. Under these circumstances, I question if any increase in individual salaries would be approved. I quote from the Colonial List, but I do not know if there are other such Officers employed by the Municipality and doing work here done by the Government Medical Staff. The P. C. M. O. of Singapore has the administrative superintendence of Penang and Malacca as well as Singapore, therefore his work is more extended than that of the P. C. M. O). here.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 21st October, 1901.

SIR,

 I have the honour to report that, since I left on leave, very few patients have been admitted to the Female Venereal Wards.

 Since receipt of instructions contained in the Secretary of State's Despatch No. 52 of 17th April, 1894, only those who have voluntarily attended have been treated.

 It appears that, since the Captain Superintendent of Police proceeded against these people, the private practitioners have started examination rooms and hospitals for these women, and they prefer to attend there, as no certificates are issued here.

 This being so, it seems useless to reserve these wards for that class of patient, especially as we are so hard pressed for room for destitute Indians and Chinese.

I recommend that the Female Venereal Wards be done away with and that they be utilized as 3rd class wards for destitutes, this will give us 28 more beds, and there will still be a ward available for the few female venereal cases which may voluntarily come to hospital; this year up to date there has been only eight female venereal patients admitted.

 As the raison d'être for Mrs. ACKERS' post (Matron of the Female Venereal Wards) has ceased, I recommend that she be pensioned off for loss of office.

If the staff of probationers is maintained, we shall be able to work the wards with- out any addition to the staff of Nursing Sisters.

There is at present a vacancy for one probationer Nurse, and I request that I be authorized to advertise for one, provision for her salary in made in this year's Estimates.

We shall require, to work these wards, two more Chinese boys (Nurses) at $9 a month and one more coolie at $7 a month. I enclose a tabular statement showing the present staff and the staff I suggest. I have not included the amah, as our staff of amnahs is sufficiently large.

The room now occupied by Mrs. ACKERS, I propose to reserve for the Assistant Surgeon already sanctioned. I may state that Drs. Lowson and MARQUES formerly occupied these rooms for some time.

( Enclosure.)

OFFICE OF THE MEDICAL OFFICER OF HEALTH FOR THE COLONY,

33, PARLIAMENT STREET, CApe Town,

November, 1901.

ALLEGED IMMUNITY OF CHINESE FROM PLAGUE INFECTION.

(1.) With reference to the statement in the English papers to the effect that in Cape Colony the Chinese population has enjoyed immunity from infection of Plague, during the present outbreak of the disease, and to the request of His

252

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

Excellency the Governor of Hongkong to be informed as to the cause of this alleged immunity, if it exists, I beg to state that :----

(2.) There are not at my disposal accurate data upon which to base a calcu- lation as to the relative number of Chinese at present residing in Cape Colony as compared with the rest of the population. The last Census of the population of the Colony was taken as far back as the year 1891, and according to these returns there were only two hundred and fifteen Chinese males (no females) residing in Cape Colony, but it is certain that this number has largely increased; exactly to what extent, however, it is impossible to say.

   (3.) The number of cases of Plague which have been discovered up to the present among Chinese during the outbreak is only ten, all of whom were males, namely

One at Cape Town,

Eight at Port Elizabeth, and

One at Uitenhage.

Of which number, seven have died, namely :

Six at Port Elizabeth, and

One at Uitenhage.

Of the remainder-

One at Cape Town, and

One at Port Elizabeth, have been discharged cured; and

One at Port Elizabeth is still under treatment.

   (4.) A round enumeration of the Chinese, Asiatics (Indians) and Aboriginal Natives at Port Elizabeth, made during the last few days, has resulted in the discovery of 390 Chinese, three hundred and eighty-four being males and six females. Of 707 Indians, four hundred and ninety-one being males and two hundred and sixteen females; and of eight thousand eight hundred and thirty Aboriginal Natives. This enumeration of Aboriginal Natives is more likely, however, to be inaccurate than that of Chinese and Asiatics.

   (5.) Although these figures are quite insufficient for the purpose of arriving at a final conclusion, yet a rough indication of the relative incidence of the disease among Chinese, as compared with other races, and especially Indians, may be obtained. They' give, in the case of Port Elizabeth, for the Chinese population a case incidence of over two per cent. of the community and a mortality (so far) of over one and a half per cent.; and a case mortality (so far) of seventy-five per cent. of total known attacks.

   These rates may be compared with the incidence on Indians living in the same place, among whom four cases of Plague, all of whom have died, have been discovered, which give a case incidence and mortality of 0.57 per cent. of the In- dian community, and a case mortality of 100 per cent. of the attacks. They may also be compared with the rates for Aboriginal Natives living in Port Elizabeth, ainong whom forty-four cases of Plague have been discovered, of which number, twenty have died, fourteen have been discharged cured, and ten still remain under treatment; giving a case incidence of a little less than a half per cent. of the Abo- riginal Native population.

   As the final result of so many of the cases among natives at Port Elizabeth is not yet known, no useful rates of mortality can at present be obtained for these Natives, but it is of interest to compare the case mortality in different races among

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 1ST MARCH, 1902.

253

all cases of Plague which have so far occurred throughout the Colony (including Port Elizabeth). This has amounted--

among Europeans to 34.1 per cent. on a total of two hundred and

fourteen cases ;

among Aboriginal Natives to 42.7 per cent. on a total of one hundred

and ninety-two cases; and

among

Coloured persons, chiefly consisting of half-castes and Malays, to 56.7 per cent. on a total of four hundred and thirty-six cases.

(6.) So far, therefore, as we can judge from the above figures both the inci- dence of the disease and the mortality, when attacked, is greater among Chinese than among other races.

(7.) It is impracticable to say how far these results have been influenced by inoculation with "Haffkine's Prophylactic," as, apart from the fact that our re- cords do not in every case state the race of the person inoculated, there are so many sources of fallacy in the application of inoculation figures that no reliable deduction can be made. Moreover the number of persons inoculated is so small compared with the size of the communities living in infected areas that, I think, under any circumstances but little effect can be attributed to the inoculation on the course of the epidemic as a whole. Perhaps an exception to this statement may be made in regard to the inoculation of the large body of Natives (between six and seven thousand) who were removed from Cape Town at the beginning of the outbreak and placed in a new Location at Uitvlugt in the vicinity of the city.

The total of inoculations to date, a large number of which, however, have been performed on Natives and Asiatics living in uninfected portions of the Colony, amount to twenty-nine thousand seven hundred and eighty-one, of whom six thousand three hundred and fifty-five were Europeans, and twenty-three thousand four hundred and twenty-six were Coloured, Asiatics, and Aboriginal Natives.

   In no case shall such premises be re-occupied except under a certificate of the Board signed by the Secretary that such premises are fit for human habitation.

   Subject to the approval of the Governor, the Board may, when necessary, erect matsheds, or hire buildings or charter vessels and use them for the accommodation of the persons so removed.

   4. All receptacles, whether public or private, for excremental matter shall be kept thoroughly disinfected by the owner thereof to the satisfaction of the Medical Officer of Health or other duly authorized Officer of the Board, by causing to be thrown into such receptacle after use a sufficient quantity of any such disinfectant as may be approved by the said Board.

4. The chief points of contrast ween the Examination is indelibly printed on my brain) and the Examination just now are nearly all clean and remarkably well written; where exception, the majority of papers being dirty and almost illeg infinitely severer; in 1882 the action of the gauge was very delicate hopeless translation, you could decipher that the boy had a fairly cor allowed to pass; in Composition, three sentences grammatically correct irrespective of subject matter; in Arithmetic, there was an allowance for me. to condone for a wrong digit in even a total or product; beyond all this, a

I objected to anything but a rigid being applied to all alike; and maintained that, in mathematical subjects except for so cal error, no leniency could be shown.

5. A further proof of the increase of standard is to be found in the larger proportion or examined in certain subjects. Every boy is now examined in Reading, as against three-quarters the school. All the Chinese are examined in Translations, whereas in 1882 twenty per cent. did not offer these subjects. More than half the boys are now examined in English Composition, as against less than one-quarter in 1882; in Grammar 85° as compared with 46 %, and in Geography 69 % with 39% The full significance of the difference will be more apparent when it is understood that 781 boys were in 1902 examined in English Grammar as against 170 in 1882. On the other hand, twenty years ago. Copy Writing was accepted for more than three-quarters of the whole school as a subject which might assist in averting failure; this concession is now made to only one-seventh, Several subjects now forining part of the curriculum were not taught in 1881-Shakespeare, Algebra, Euclid, Mensuration, Book-keeping, Natural Science, and Physiology. One outcome of this general

raising of the standard of education in Queen's College has been that for the last twelve years, through entering for the Oxford Local Examinations, our boys have, with varying success, been able to submit to a test of their English attainments by English Examiners in England,

    6. I feel confident that this brief historical review will not be misconstrued into an expression of satisfaction with either the progress made or the standard attained in so long a period as twenty years. My desire is merely to place on record a statement of the fact that some advance, however inadequate, has been made in that time. No one can be more eager or ambitious than myself to see the standard of work at Queen's College raised immeasurably higher; but I may perhaps be permitted to say that nobody knows better the inherent difficulties in the way. The formation of an Advanced Class above and beyond the First Class has long been a cherished scheme of mine. Unfortunately, however, less than half a dozen boys remain in the College at the beginning of the new school year, who would be fit to proceed to higher work; and of these we should have no assurance whatever that any would remain so long as even six months, whereas two years would be the least possible time, in which any result could be hoped to be effected; and in saying this I refer to both non-Chinese and Chinese alike. Of circumstances not under our control, it is to be noted that so long as Plague recurs annually in the Colony education must suffer.

7. The present most crying educational needs of Queen's College would appear to be:--

(a.) the maintenance of the full strength of the English staff, vacancies being supplied as

expeditiously as possible;

(b.) more efficient training of Junior Chinese Assistants by the appointment of a Normal Master, who, for a small extra salary (like that of the Head Master of the Police School), should devote, in addition to his ordinary class duties, six hours a week to the careful instruction of Pupil Teachers ;

(c.) the restoration of Native Chinese School for the boys in the Lower and Preparatory

Schools;

(c.) the erection, or enlargement, of schools at Wantsai and Saiyingpun under English Masters, to act as feeders to Queen's College, the curriculum of which place would have to be carefully, followed, that boys might on admission be fit for the Upper School or for Class IV at the lowest.

8. I returned to the Colony after eighteen months' leave and resumed duties on 1st November, 1901. Mr. A. J. MAY (Second Master) had been Acting Head Master during my absence, evidently

odabratically

e of the College. I may especially mention ensed accommodation was provided at the nt was secured in the results at the Annual

9. I found on my return three English and two Chinese Masters, all energetic and capable men, re- moved from the staff: Mr. MACHELL by death, Mr. BARLOW by retirement on pension, Mr. WooDCOCK by transference to the Sanitary Board, Mr. PUN YUN FONG by resignation, and Mr. UN KAM WA on loan to the Supreme Court. If to these losses, we add the absence for four years as Acting Deputy Registrar, of Mr. JONES, the resignation of Mr. CHIU CHI-TSUNG and Mr. LUK KING-FO, and the transfer to the Supreme Court of Mr. WoNG KwOK Ü, which took place a couple of years ago, we find that we have lost 4 Senior English and 5 Senior Chinese Masters.

10A year was occupied in filling the vacancy caused by Mr. MACHELL'S retirement and subse- quent death, Mr. W. B. SEYMOUR of London University, who promises to be a useful addition to the staff, arriving in Jane last. There are still two vacancies caused in July and October, which we nxiously long to hear are suitably filled. It must be remembered that six English masters were considered the minimum number necessary for the 400 boys at the Central School; it is therefore evid- ent that for 1,000 boys per month (and often per day) ten English masters are far indeed from an ex- travagant demand.

11. With only half the English staff present, and with Junior Chinese Assistants rapidly promoted to fill the vacancies caused by five changes in the Senior Chinese staff, while all the Chinese Assistants were temporarily raised three places to supply the vacancies on the English staff-it is manifest that Mr. MAY had serious difficulties to cope with in securing the efficient working of the College, and that great credit is due to him and the English and Chinese masters for the considerable success gained.

12. The Governing Body instructed me to examine the Upper School this year, in addition to the Lower and Preparatory Schools, which by standing order are annually examined by the Head Master. Unfortunately at the beginning of the Oral Examination, I was absent for several days through indisposition. As no time could be spared, I was obliged to authorize Mr. MAY to examine Classes V-VIII in Reading, Classes V and VI in Conversation, and Class VII orally in Grammar. With these exceptions, and the omission of the Translation Papers from English into Chinese, which were as usual entrusted for marking to the Second Master, I have personally conducted the entire Examination of the 910 boys present.

    14. On the whole, this is the best Examination within my memory for many years. manifest improvement in the non-Chinese sections. The excellence of the English Composition in the Chinese Classes IIA-IVC inclusive was, in my opinion, the chief feature of the Examination. English Grammar and History were subjects specially good in all classes.

In the Upper School, Arithmetic, Algebra and Euclid were good; Book-keeping in IIA very good; In IAB, N1.2 Geography was weak, and in IAB Dictation and Composition poor.

    In the Lower School, with the exception of Arithmetic, which was very weak, all the subjects were much above the average.

The Preparatory School maintained its usual high level.

I shall provide the Governing Body with a separate Report with fuller particulars.

15. The results at the Oxford Local Examinations held at this centre were most encouraging, the number of certificates obtained last July by boys of this College being far in excess of previous successes for many years, there being 4 Senior, 3 Junior, and 9 Preliminary.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, STH MARCH, 1902.

   16. Two years ago, the Honourable the Colonial Secretary, in his address at the Prize Distribu- tion in this hall, expressed a hope that a Gymnasium might be provided for the use of our boys. The matter has been under the consideration of the Government and plans were submitted some months ago by the Honourable the Director of Public Works. The issue is awaited with interest.

17. The playground accommodation originally intended for 700 boys is naturally barely suffi- cient for 1,000. It has been suggested that a triangular piece of waste ground to the south-west of the College might be given for this purpose by the Government. The cost of levelling and enclosing- would not appear to be a very serious consideration. It might, however, be more advantageous to erect the Gymnasium on this site, instead of encroaching on the lower playground.

18. The usual Tables of Expenditure and Attendances are appended.

I have the honour to be,

SIR,

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 31st December, 1901.

I have the honour to report that, in consequence of a number of complaints which reached the Governinent in connection with the difficulties of procuring and retaining reliable coolies for private chairs and jinrickshas, I appointed a Com- mission, in August last, for the purpose of enquiring into the cause of these com- plaints and suggesting a remedy.

2. The Commission held fourteen meetings during the months of September, October and November, and examined a large number of witnesses.

The Report in which the evidence of these witnesses was reproduced, and in which the Commissioners formulated their suggestions for the removal of the alleged grounds of discontent, was submitted to me last month. I gave it my very careful consideration and perused all the evidence upon which the recom- mendations of the Commissioners were based.

3. I did not find myself in agreement with the deductions drawn from the evidence by the Commissioners, and was unable, therefore, to concur in their recom- mendations. I invited the Members of my Executive Council, however, to give me the benefit of their views on the subject, and caused them to be informed of the opinions held by myself.

4. On the 20th instant, the question was fully considered in Executive Council, especially as to the question whether there should or should not be compulsory registration of private coolies, and it was advised by a majority of the Members of Council that no steps should be taken to carry out the recommendations of the Committee. This advice was given on the ground that the recommendations, if carried out, were not calculated to bring about the desired result, nor, in the long- run, to satisfy the employers of private coolies, inasmuch as the real causes of discontent appeared to be traceable to the state of the labour market of Hongkong. and China and other natural economic conditions.

5. I have now the honour to transmit for your information six copies of the Report together with a statement of my own views, which I drew up after reading the Report but before I consulted the Executive Council.

6. I also enclose an extract from the China Mail of the 20th instant from which it appears that the difficulties dealt with by the Commissioners who drew up the Report may be mitigated by other methods than those suggested by them- methods which would be less subversive of sound economic principles.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

(Enclosure.)

Extract from "China Mail" of the 20th December, 1901.

The difficulty in procuring ricksha coolies seems to have been almost met by the recent action of the authorities in placing 500 extra public rickshas on the streets. There are now twelve hundred of these conveyances plying in Hongkong, and the coolies, finding that their earnings are not so profitable as before, are throwing aside the public ricksha and going into private employ. The public ricksha owners grumble that many of their machines are lying idle for want of coolies. The grumble, of course, is justifiable when one takes into consideration the fact that the licensee has to pay $72 a year to the Treasury for the licence for each ricksba.

Minute by His Excellency the Governor on the Report of the Committee appointed to enquire into and report on the Question of Chair and Jinricksha Coolies.

Honourable COLONIAL SECRETARY,

I have very carefully read and considered this report and the evidence upon which it is based. The causes of the difficulties complained of are fairly set forth in the answer of the first witness to question 7 of page 1A-(a.) the demand for coolies is greater and the coolies are more or less limited in number; (b.) they are under no control and they can do as they like; (c.) the cost of living has increased and wages are still going up. The latter reason given is borne out by 17 of the 32 responses in Appendix E. and is emphasised by Inspector HANSON in his answers to questions 9 and 10, page 11. On the other hand, as suggested in questions 3 and 4, page 14, as private chair coolies are usually housed, the increased cost of lodging outside ought to tend to increase the supply of private chair coolies.

Another reason of the alleged discontent of private chair coolies is that they object to performing the light work outside the mere carrying of chairs that has hitherto been within the scope of their duty.

The proposals put forward by the Members of the Commission to meet this state of discomfort are compulsory registration of all coolies employed as private ricksha or chair coolies, and the reduction of the fares of public ricksha and chair coolies so that their possible earnings would cease to be a temptation to private chair coolies to leave private employment and become licensed public chair coolies. The establishment of a coolie farm was also suggested, question 10, page 15, but Mr. HANSON'S answer "There is no doubt that if these people are put into the hands of one person, the community will have to pay largely for that man's mono- poly" confirmed by Mr. DYER BALL's answer, question 6, page 23, is borne out by the demand of NGAN WING CHI who had evidently been approached on the subject of a monopoly, and was prepared to undertake the supply of 2,700 private chair and ricksha coolies in three classes at eleven, ten, and nine dollars respectively.

On the subject of registration, the views of the witnesses are very divergent. Registration has been tried before and proved a failure, because the masters would not be troubled by any restriction of the kind so long as they could get their work done. Mr. MAY's answer to question 2, page 6, shows how far this disinclination went to accept any trouble even in a case where it was notified to the master by the police that one of his boys was a thief. The answer was: "Well, so long as he does not trouble me, I don't mind." The evidence of Mr. DENNYS, late Crown Solicitor, showed that he is strongly opposed to any interference by compulsory registration of private coolies as an interference with freedom of con- tract, questions 6 to 9, page 29; and at question 6, page 31, he gives he reasons for

>

7

A

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 15TH MARCH, 1902.

329

the present difficulty, that is, that a street or cargo coclie can earn more money than a private chair coolie. The evidence of Mr. SAUNDERS, pages 92 to 99, is also very strongly against registration, on the grounds of interference with freedom of con tract (question 3, page 94) and also of the danger of intensifying the present dis- comforts (question 4, page 94) "There is a limited supply of these people and, if you weed them out, there will be an insufficient supply." Mr. SAUNDERS' evidence appears to have been rather a resistance to persistent arguments of the Commis sion favour of registration making employment of unregistered coolia an offence, than the volunteering of his views on the questions under discussion

The

Mr. BREWIN, the Registrar General, declared himself in favour of compuls registration, question 6, page 57, but the answers to the questions from 4, to question 7, page 59, show some of the practical difficulties of identification. examination of the witnesses shows that the Commission entered upon the inquiry with strong views upon the advisability of compulsory registration a art necessity for reducing the fares of the public ricksha_coolies and chair coolies so that their earnings would cease to induce private chair and ricksha olies to elect to serve pure licensed coolies rather than to enga re as private cooties. Inspector HeSOx said, questions, pag 15, that two

                 make from sixty to eighty dollarsmooth.with a public ricksha, but at question page 16, he pla the probable duration of a coolie's ricksha life at three years, while NGAN WACHI, in answer to question 11, page 90, shows that over ten of his ricksh, men have died, because they had a long run over the new road from Kowloon to Slatin

V

Mr. BREWIN, in answer to question 6, page 60, said that cargo coolies are the best paid. The question at the bottom of the page assumes that in such case the reduction of the ricksha and chair fares would not have much effect in driving the men into private employ. Mr. FUNG WA CHUN, question 10, page 65, placed the earnings of a street coolie with a pole at 40 cents a day while other coolies make $15 a month. And that the increase in wages is not confined to Hongkong is shown by Mr. LAU CHU PAK (questions 3 to 12, page 71) by which it appears that in South China wages Lave risen 30 % in the villages. The first three witnesses agree that compulsory registration will probably produce a strike. ~

I have analysed the evidence thus carefully as I consider it highly undesirable to interfere with sound economic principles except very strong local reasons are shown--that I cannot find in the evidence given before the Commission. Freedom of the port and freedom of contract are two principles under which Hongkong has grown and prospered. The original Registration Ordinance was repealed because the European population showed that they did not care to avail themselves of its provisions, and the passing of such an Ordinance as is now recommended might have far reaching consequences, extremely inconvenient to Europeans dependent upon the services of chair coolies. It has been shown in the evidence that Regis- tration Offices have been tried on more than one occasion and have failed from want of support, and it is evident that any master who desires to be satisfied as to the character of his chair coolies, can refuse to engage any coolie who does not produce some evidence of his character. All that is required is a common agree- ment between a number of employers. Or, if a number of people find it difficult to obtain coolies, it is evident from the statements of Chinese witnesses that there are men in the Colony who would undertake to apply them if arrangements were made with them. Mr. HANSON points out, on page 14, the objection the Chinese coolies have to many restrictions, and it seems to me that compulsory registration would reduce the labour supply and further raise the wages.

But the question as to fares and as to the issue of tickets as recommended in para. 21 might be considered in Executive Council. In para. 20 Inspector HANSON's statement is quoted. These amounts may possibly have been earned in one of the busy months before the large increase of 1,200 rickshas, but, granting the

statement that, for the year the average nett earning was $10, this cannot be reckoned exhorbitant remembering the short life of a ricksha coolie, and is not more than can be earned by afcargo coolie.

If a system of tickets could be adopted it would, in my opinion, save many disputes especially with people who do not carry very small change, and who generally receive Chinese coins in exchange. I have spoken to Mr. HEWETT on the Shanghai system which, he tells me, works well, and if such tickets were issued by Government, probaply books of them would be bought freely and used by sailors, &c., &c. As to the amount, a sum equal to one penny farthing does not appear to be very startling even for the shortest journey, and is decidedly ferate for fifteen minutes, but this could be considered in Executive Council. ncreased competition must bring down the earnings and with lower fares we might find such a curtailment in the number of rickshas as would reproduce the inconvenience felt last year.

At 6 p.m., on the 29th October, while the steam launch Ut Fat was at anchor nine men armed boarded he from small boats, weighed anchor, and steamed up the Canton robbing a coal junk on the way of several tons of coal. They proceeded up the kast River, probable intention being to ue the launch to rob junks and passage boats. Their plans wer w however, by the launch recidentally running aground near Tung Kun. They thereupon left the crew regained possession and brought her back to Hongkong. Only a few articles of were stolen. This launch caried passengers regularly between Hongkong and Tai O the robbers was found.

Owing to the number of robberies which occurred on launches in 1900 by armed robbers disguised as passengers, special legislation was introduced compelling launch owners to provide adequate protection to the crew and passgengers against surprises, and to prevent armed robbers obtaining access to launches under the guise of ordinary passengers. It is satisfactory to record that these measures have proved effetual, no case of this nature occurring turing 1901. (In the case of the Ut Fat mentioned above the passengers had all gone adore and, the watchmen had laid aside their arms and were off duty. The lives and property of passengers, which the special measures were framed to protect, were not therefore involved..

GAMBLING.

9. There was a great deal of gambling during the year, though less than in the previous year. The European Police officers charged with its suppression, all discharged their duties in this connec- tion with great zeal and ability. Police inade successful raids, under warrants, on 81 gambling houses (of which 18 were broken in July alone), as against 85 in 1900. I have recently induced the Police Magistrates to largely increase the fines which it had become customary to impose on persons con- victed of keeping gambling houses. It is too early yet to form an opinion as to whether the fines now imposed are heavy enough to act as a deterrent.

PROPERTY REPORTED STOLEN AND PROPERTY RECOVERED.

10. The value of the property reported stolen during the year was $91,042.90.

The value of the property recovered by the Police and restored to owners was $6,152.17.

EXECUTIVE STAFF.

   24. An Additional Assistant Superintendent was added to the Executive Staff, which now consists of 1 Captain Superintendent, 1 Deputy Superintendent, and 2 Assistant Superintendents. Mr. P. P. J. WODEHOUSE was appointed to the new post, and at once proceeded to Lahore to study Hindustani and Indian Police Methods. During his absence the services of Captain GOODWIN, R.A., and afterwards, of Lieutenant CoWIE, R.A., were kindly lent to this Department by the military author- ities. Both Officers rendered most valuable assistance in smartening up the Indian Contingent in drill and otherwise, selecting Indian recruits, and in many other directions.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 15TH MARCH, 1902.

ARMS ORDINANCE.

   26. During the whole of the year a Proclamation has been in force prohibiting the export of arms and ammunitions of war from the Colony.

   The following arms and ammunition were seized and forfeited by the Police Magistrate during the year, viz.:-1,288 rifles, carbines, and muskets; 885 revolvers; 146 pistols; 2,653 bayonets; 8 swords; 241,350 rounds of ammunition; 3,400 boxes percussion caps; and 3 cwt. of nipples for muskets.

MUSKETRY.

27. The European and Indian Contingents went through a course of Musketry on the new Rifle Range, the conditions being the same as in 1899 (no course was fired in 1900), except that Martini- Enfield Carbines were used in place of the old Martini-Henry. The results show a marked improve- ment in the shooting of both Contingents, especially of the Indians, of whom only 53 failed to qualify as second class shots or better, as against 154 in 1899. This improvement may be partly, but not entirely, attributable to the use of the newer weapons.

POLICE SCHOOL,

HONGKONG, 13th January, 1902.

SIR,I have the honour to submit the following Report on the Police School for the year ended December 31st, 1901.

  1. The School was open on 104 days. The total number of attendances registered in the School Roll was 4,580. This gives a daily average of 44. In 1900, the daily attendance averaged 34.5.

2. The number of different men who have been in School at all, during the year, is: -English Constables 29, Indian Constables 67, Chinese Constables 128, Gaol Staff (Guards and Assistant Warders) 85, and Garden Boys 4; a total of 313, as against 255 in 1900.

3. At an examination, held on March 5th and 6th, in the Police Library, six Constables-Nos. 4, 71, 99, 111, 115 and 131-passed and were granted Certificates of Exemption: and, at a further examination, held on August 26th, 27th and 28th, eight other Constables-Nos. 25, 59, 61, 90, 93, 98 and 128--were similarly successful.

4. The following table is not without interest, as it contrasts the attendances, etc., during the past three years :-

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 15TH MARCH, 1902.

GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.-No. 161.

The following Report of the Director of the Observatory, for the year 1901, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 15th March, 1902.

J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, Colonial Secretary.

HONGKONG OBSERVATORY, 31st January, 1902.

SIR, I have the honour to submit my annual report for 1901 to His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government. My seventeenth volume of observations was published last autumn, and the eighteenth volume is now being printed. It contains the usual astronomical, meteorological and magnetic observations.

2. The comparison of Mr. FIGG's weather forecasts, issued daily about 11 a.m., with the weather subsequently experienced has been conducted on the same system as heretofore (compare Annual Report for 1896 § 5). We have:

Success 59°, partial success 34°, partial failure 6°, failure 1 °

Following the method used in meteorological offices and taking the sum of total and partial success as a measure of success, and the sum of total and partial failure as a measure of failure, we find, finally, that 93 % of the weather forecasts were a success.

3. The China Coast Meteorological Register was printed every morning at the Observatory, and information regarding storms was telegraphed by Mr. FIGG and exhibited on notice-boards as often and as fully as such information could be justified by the weather telegrams received. This happened on 93 days in 1901. The Red Drum was hoisted once, the Red South Cone once, and the Black South Cone once. The Typhoon Gun was not fired during the year.

4. Telegraphic connection with Victoria was interrupted as follows:-January 18th, 7 a. to 10.30 a.; February 11th, 7 a. to 9.30 a.; February 16th, 4 p. to 17th, 10.20 a.; 17th, 1 p. to 18th, 8.30 a. ; 28th, 7.45 a. to 1.16 p.; March 3rd, 2.30 p. to 4th, 7 a; 4th, 8.30 a. to 10.20 a.; April 6th, 6.3 p. to 8th, 12.35 p.; May 8th, 1 p. to 4.36 p. ; 20th, 3.18 p. to 5.15 p.; June 8th, 5.50 p. to 9th, 8.50 a. ; 20th, 12.5 p. to 3.17 p.; August 4th, 8.10 a. to 12.35 p.; 5th, 7 a. to 9.40 a. ; September 30th, 5 p. to 10 p.; October 1st, 7.54 a. to 10.54 a.; November 12th, 7.25 p. to 10 p. ; 17th, 9 a. to 12.38 p.; December 3rd, 8 a. to 1 p.; 3rd, 4.20 p. to 5.55 p.; 5th, 9.10 a. to 7th, 3.30 p.; 11th, 4.35 p. to 7.10 p. ; 20th, 8.12 a. to 9.20 a.; 29th, 8 a. to 30th, 10.30 a. Interruptions occurred, therefore, on 30 days, and of course, also, during thunderstorms.

5. During 1901 in addition to meteorological registers kept at about 40 stations on shore, 2,007 ship-logs have been copied on board or forwarded by the captains. The total number of vessels, whose log-books have been made use of by Miss DOBERCK, was 245. The total number of days' observa- tions (counting separately those made on board different ships on the same day) was 15,731.

6. The following is a list of ships, from which logs have been obtained in 1901. The majority are steamships, and the others are distinguished as follows:-bk., barque; sh., ship; bqt., barquen- tine-Adria, Airlie, Albion (H.M.S.), Alcinous, Alexander (U.S.S.), Alexandria, Amara, Ainiral Charner (French man-of-war), Andalusia, Anna, Anping Maru, Antenor, Antonio Macleod, Ariake Maru, Argonaut (H.M.S.), Arratoon Apcar, Australian, A wa Maru, Ballaarat, Banca, Bengal, Ben- larig, Bingo Maru, Bisagno, Bombay, Bormida, Braemar, Brand, Brandenburg (S.M.S.), Brooklyn (U.S.S.), Burnside (U.S. Cable ship), Calchas, Canning, Canton, Catherine Apcar, Carinthia.

8. As stated in the "Instructions for making Meteorological Observations," meteorological in- struments forwarded by observers who regularly send their registers to the Observatory are verified here free of cost. During the past year, I thermometer was verified and several hundred barometers and aneroids on board ship were compared with our standard.

    9. The mean values of the spectroscopic rainband (1-5) in 1901 were as follows:--January 2.0, February 1.0, March 1.8, April 2.2, May 2.6, June 2.1, July 2.1, August 2.2, September 1.8, October 1.7, November 1.0, December 1.3. Year 1.82.

     10. In 1901, the number of transits observed was 3,349. The axis of the transit instrument was levelled 231 times and the azimuth and collimation errors, which are less liable to variation, were determined 28 times by aid of the meridian mark erected in 1884. Stellar observations were discon- tinued between June 3 and August 2, and again between September 19 and November 20. About one half of the observations have been made and the whole have been reduced by Mr. J. I. PLUMMER, the remainder of the observations have been made by Mr. F. G. FIGG and myself.

    11. The standard sidereal clock by Dent has gone uninterruptedly thoughout the year in a per- fectly satisfactory manner. The platinum points of the contact springs were cleaned once only, viz., on August 29, an operation which does not appreciably interfere with the rate, but usually alters the arc of vibration to some extent. The standard mean time clock by Brock continued to go in the unsatisfactory manner mentioned in previous reports until June 4, when, the cord of the driving weight, having been found broken, the clock was thoroughly overhauled, and the pendulum taken to pieces and cleaned. As the compensation of this clock was much in excess, the zinc tubing was short- ened three millimetres, and there is reason to believe that the going of the clock since these alterations has been materially improved. The time-ball clock continues to give satisfaction.

12. The errors of the time-ball are given in Table II. There were six failures in 1901. The ball is not dropped on Government holidays, nor, since December 1st, on Sundays, and on 50 days this year it has been under repair. The cause of the failures on February 17, June 6 and June 10, was that the piston jammed at the top of the shaft tnost probably in consequence of hardened oil in the shaft on the first occasion, and from rust on the mast upon the later dates. On July 20 the current failed to discharge the lock, and on November 21 and November 25, the back spring having become loose, the piston would not rest upon the tooth. The ball was dropped successfully 286 times in the year, and on five days was not dropped, there being no assistant available. In consequence of the repeated repairs necessary to the old ball, the zinc having become crystallized and very much cracked, a new one was ordered from the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Company which has been erected and which was dropped for the first time on August 23. The new ball has been constructed of brass with spring steel ribs, and to obviate any accumulation of rain-water in the interior of the ball, a small hole has been drilled at the lowest part of its circumference. The probable error was in January± 0.22, in February± 0.09, in March +0.12, in April± 0.28, in May +0.11, in June 0.11, in July± 0.10, in August ± 0.09, in September± 0.10, in October± 0.09, in

± November±0.10, and in December ± 0.20.

   13. The cisterns of the barograph and standard barometers are placed 109 feet above M.S.L. The bulbs of the thermometers are rotated 108 feet above M.S.L., and 4 feet above the grass. The solar radiation thermometer is placed at the same height. The rim of the rain-gauge is 105 feet above M.S.L, and 21 inches above the ground.

14. The monthly Weather Reports are arranged as follows:-

Table I. exhibits the hourly readings of the barometer reduced to freezing point of water, but not to sea level nor for gravity as measured (at two minutes to the hour named) from the barograms.

Table II. and III. exhibit the temperature of the air and of evaporation as determined by aid of rotating thermometers. Table II. exhibits also the extreme temperatures reduced to rotating thermometer by comparisons of thermometers hung beside them. Table III. exhibits also the solar radiation (black bulb in vacuo) maximum temperatures re- duced to Kew arbitrary standard.

Table IV. exhibits the mean relative humidity in percentage of saturation and mean tension of water vapour present in the air in inches of mercury, for every hour of the day and for every day of the month, calculated by, aid of Blanford's tables from the data in Tables II. and III.

Table V. exhibits the duration of sunshine expressed in hours, from half an hour before to

half an hour after the hour (true time) named.

Table VI. exhibits the amount of rain (or dew) in inches registered from half an hour before

to half an hour after the hour named. It exhibits also the observed duration of rain.

Table VII. exhibits the velocity of the wind in miles and its direction in points (1--32). The velocity is measured from half an hour before to half an hour after the hour named, but the direction is read off at the hour.

Table VIII. exhibits the amount (0-10), name (Howard's classification) and direction whence coming of the clouds. Where the names of upper and lower clouds are given, but only one direction, this refers to the lower clouds. With regard to the names of clouds; nimbus (nim) is entered only when the rain is seen to fall; when no rain is seen to fall cumulo-nimbus (cum-nim) is entered. This name indicates clouds inter- mediate between cum and nim. Cumulo-stratus (cum-str) is the well-known thunder cloud, while strato-cumulus (str-cum) signifies a cloud intermediate between stratus and cum.

Sm-cum means alto-cumulus.

Table IX. exhibits for every hour in the day, the mean velocity of the wind reduced to 4 as well as 2 directions, according to strictly accurate formulæ, and also the mean direc- tion of the wind.

Below this is printed a list of the phenomena observed.

15. The following annual Weather Report for 1901 is arranged as follows:---

Table III. exhibits the mean values for the year (or hourly excess above this) obtained from

the monthly reports. The total duration of rain was 751 hours.

0.01 inch of rain on 137 days.

There fell at least

Table IV. exhibits the number of hours during a portion of which at least 0.005 inch of rain

(or dew) was registered.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 15TH MARCH, 1902.

Table V. exhibits the number of days with wind from eight different points of the compass. The figures are obtained from the mean daily directions in Table VII. of the monthly reports. Days with wind from a point equidistant from two directions given, are counted half to one of these and half to the other, e.g.. half of the days when the wind was NNE are counted as N, and the other half as NE.

Table VI. exhibits the number of days on which certain meteorological phenomena were re- gistered, and also the total number of thunderstorms noted in the neighbourhood during the past year.

Table VII. shows the frequency of clouds of different classes.

Table VIII. is arranged as last

year.

Table IX. exhibits the monthly and annual extremes.

Table X. contains five-day means.

16. The observations of magnetic declination and horizontal force published in tables XI. and XII. were made with magnet No. 55 on Kew pattern unifilar magnetometer Elliot Brothers No. 55. The dips were observed with dip-circle Dover No. 71.

    The methods adopted in making observations and in determining and applying the corrections are explained in Appendix G of Observations and Researches made in 1885-On the verification of the Unifilar magnetometer Elliott Brothers No. 55." The value of log K was 3.44907 at 25°. The

77K value of P was 7.28. The mean value of the magnetic moment of the vibrating needle was 579.33.

The times of vibration exhibited in Table XII. are each derived from 12 observations of the time occupied by the magnet in making 100 vibrations, corrections having been applied for rate of chrono- meter and arc of vibration.

The observations of horizontal force given in Table XIII., are expressed in C.G.S. units. The vertical and total forces have been computed by aid of the observed dips.

His Majesty in Council may order that the said Act shall apply and the same shall accordingly apply to the said Superior Court and British Possession, subject to any exceptions, conditions, and modifications specified in the Order.

And whereas by the said Act it is further provided that His Majesty in Council by the same or any subsequent Order may as respects the Court and British Possession named in the Order provide for all matters authorised by the said Act to be prescribed, and for all matters appearing to His Majesty to be necessary or proper for giving effect to the Order and to the said Act and that an Order in Council applying the Act to a Court in a British Possession may provide that solicitors of that Court may be admitted by virtue of the said Act to be solicitors in any part of the United Kingdom, namely, England, Scotland or Ireland, or in two or one of those parts only.

And whereas application has been made by the Governor of the Colony of Hongkong that the said Act may be applied to that Colony.

NOW THEREFORE His Majesty in pursuance of the said recited Act and in execution of the powers thereby in His Majesty vested is pleased by and with the advice of His Privy Council to Order and it is hereby Ordered that the Colonial Solicitors Act, 1900, shall apply to the Supreme Court of the Colony of Hongkong and to the Colony of Hongkong and that solicitors of the Supreme Court of the Colony of Hongkong may be admitted by virtue of the said Act to be solicitors in England and in Ireland, and Law Agents in Scotland subject to the conditions herein-after specified.

The following Report of the Commission appointed by His Excellency the Governor to enquire into the Public Works Department, was laid before the Legislative Council on the 10th instant, and is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 11th April, 1902.

REPORT-.

J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, Colonial Secretary:

1. A Commission (see Appendix No. 1) was appointed by His Excellency the Gov- ernor to enquire into the Public Works Department on the 11th October last.

2. The Commissioners originally appointed were as follows:-:

Honourable J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, C.M.G., Chairman.

Honourable H. E. POLLOCK, K.C.

Honourable J. THURBURN.

Colonel L. F. BROWN, R.E.

ROBERT G. SHEWAN, Esq.

Owing to his having to leave the Colony, the Honourable H. E. POLLOCK resigned his seat on the Commission, and Mr. G. C. C. MASTER was appointed to fill the vacancy.

Mr. E. D. C. WOLFE was appointed Secretary.

The first meeting was held on the 18th October, 1901, and the last on the 18th March, 1902. Ten meetings were held altogether.

An unavoidable delay arose as it was deemed advisable to examine as a witness Mr. CHADWICK, the Sanitary Expert, who only arrived in the Colony on the 28th of February and did not appear before the Commission until the 13th of March.

Thirty witnesses in all were examined by the Commission including all the Senior Officers and Overseers of the Public Works Department and most of the leading Engineers and Architects engaged in private practice in the Colony, who are brought into intimate relations with that Department.

3. The Commission made a careful enquiry into the duties and responsibilities of the Public Works Department with a view to being in a position to report on the matters specially referred to it, viz.:-

(a.) The constitution and sufficiency of the staff.

(b.) The advisability of increasing such staff or of making any changes in its

personnel.

(c.) Generally what changes should be made in the working of the Depart-

ment.

4. A clear and succinct statement drawn up by Mr. CHATHAM, Director of Public Works, of the Ordinances and Regulations under which the operations of the Public Works Department are carried on, of the present staff and the duties discharged by it, and of the expenditure on account of the Department from 1894-1900, will be found in Appendix No. 2.

5. A careful perusal of the evidence taken by the Commission will show that it is clear that the staff, as at present constituted, is not sufficient to discharge efficiently the varied and important duties entrusted to it.

6. An instructive Statement (see Appendix No. 3) is attached by Mr. CHATHAM to his Report of the 25th September, 1901, in which he makes proposals for increasing the staff of his Department. That statement shows the amount of estimated and actual expenditure on account of public works from the year 1894 to 1900, and reveals the fact that during the period under review, owing to insufficiency of staff, it has not been possible to expend the money voted in the Estimates.

Evidence.

66.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The Director of Public Works states:-"From the tatement it will be seen that the estimated expenditure for 1901 is almost exactly double the actual expenditure for "1894, whilst the Estimates for 1902 show an increase of $80,000 over those of 1901. Comparing the Estimates for 1902 with the actual expenditure for 1897, when the "staff numbered 10, the increase is seen to be nearly $400,000, whilst the staff has been "increased by one solitary member, consisting at the present time of the Assistant "Director of Public Works, 3 Executive Engineers, 6 Assistant Engineers, and 1 "Draftsman. It must be unnecessary for me to point out that the expenditure for this year will fall far short of the estimated amount, notwithstanding the fact that all the drawings required in connection with the Law Courts and the Governor's Peak Resid- ence, and the requisition for materials for the same are being supplied by outside architectural firms. Equally, it will be impossible for the Department to overtake the programme of works drawn up for 1902, unless it be materially strengthened without delay. In this way works which are considered of great urgency are falling into arrear, and, if the Department is not to be rendered capable of keeping pace with the greatly "increased demands upon it, the consequences to the Colony generally will be most **"serious."

?

7. The Commission is of opinion that this statement shows clearly that the staff is not sufficient to carry out the works entrusted to it.

But that opinion is also supported by the evidence of Mr. CHATHAM and the other members of his staff who were examined as witnesses, and also by the evidence of the Engineers and Architects in private practice.

Mr. CHATHAM and the other members of his staff in their evidence show, beyond a doubt, that work is neglected owing to the Department being und manned, and the En- gineers and Architects complain of unnecessary delays to which they have been subjected and which are acknowledged by Mr. CHATHAM as due to insufficiency of staff and want of time to overtake the increasing amount of work.

Mr. CHADWICK also is of opinion that the staff is not sufficient, and requires to be increased.

RECOMMENDATIONS AS TO STAFF.

8. The Commission, being satisfied not only of the advisability but of the absolute necessity in the interests of the Colony that the staff should be increased in order to overtake the work entrusted to it, begs to make the following recommendations as to in- crease and change in the personnel of the Department.

DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS.

9. It is clear from the evidence taken that the Director of Public Works is at present so overwhelmed with his duties that he is tied to his desk and has no time for the work of supervision, which, in the opinion of the Commission, is of supreme importance if the Department is to be carried on efficiently. Indeed, the Commission is unable to under- stand how the work of the Department can be performed thoroughly and effectively in the absence of such supervision.

The Commission, therefore, strongly recommends that steps be taken at once to re- lieve the Head of the Department of all routine work and other duties which can be dis- charged by the Assistant Director of Public Works. Mr. CHATHAM is of opinion that such a course will enable him to devote time to the exercise of general supervision, which, in the opinion of the Commission, is essential.

ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS.

10. Owing to the promotion of Mr. CHATHAM to be Director of Public Works, this post is at present vacant. The Commission recommends that the vacancy be filled without delay and that the officer selected for the post should be one of experience, and activity and possessed of powers of organisation.

11. Mr. CHATHAM is of opinion that an additional Assistant Engineer should be pointed to assist in maintenance work generally, including roads, and that another Eu- Pages:-- ropean Overseer should be appointed to supervise the roads inside the City of Victoria.

The evidence showed that the staff, as at present constituted, is not sufficient to exercise proper supervision over the roads, and the Commission is, therefore, in favour of increasing the staff as proposed.

The Commission took a great deal of evidence regarding the unsatisfactory condition of the roads, especially in the City of Victoria.

The evidence regarding roads shows that road-making in this Colony is not an easy matter, and that opinions vary as to the best mode of constructing roads, and the most suit- able materials to be used in such construction. Amidst such a variety of opinion it is difficult to arrive at a definite conclusion, but, as the present condition of the roads cannot be regarded as satisfactory, the Commission would urge the necessity of every attempt being made to bring them into a state creditable to the Colony.

In view of the evidence of Mr. CHADWICK as to the asphalt road laid under his instructions at Malta, which has worn so well, and of the evidence of other witnesses as to the desirability of giving wood pavement a trial, the Commission recommends that a portion of a road in a busy thoroughfare be laid with asphalt and another portion with wood pavement with a view to ascertaining whether roads constructed of either material are likely to prove a success in this Colony.

The attention of the Director of Public Works should also be directed to the evidence given before the Commission regarding roads, as the preponderating weight of that. evidence tends to show that the present mode of constructing roads is faulty.

12. The evidence of M FARRELL makes it clear that he has not time to attend to the Evidence. work involved in the laying and maintenance of telegraphs and telephones in addition to Pages: the duties of supervising the roads outside the City of Victoria. Mr. CHATHAM is also of opinion that one Overseer should devote his entire time to telegraphs and telephones. The Commission endorses that opinion and recommends its adoption.

Mr. TOOKER recommends that iron poles should be substituted for the timber poles Evidence. now in use. Mr. CHATHAM also advises the same course, which the Commission thinks Page 31 should be followed.

- CEMETERY.

31-32

13. In view of the shifting nature of the population of Hongkong, the Commission Evidence.. strongly recommends that the care of all the monuments in the Cemetery should be un- dertaken by the Government-a recommendation which it has the less hesitation in making, as the estimated extra expenditure involved is trifling..

BUILDING ORDINANCE.

14. A new Building Ordinance has been drafted and is at present before the Legislative Council. It is not, therefore, necessary for the Commission to enter into details regarding that measure, which is now being carefully considered by the public and will be fully discussed elsewhere.

The question of the staff required to carry out the Building Ordinance, so far as the Public Works Department is concerned, is one which comes within the purview of the Commission.

The present staff consists of:-

1 Executive Engineer.

1 Assistant Engineer.

1 Overseer.

Evidence.

16-17

The increase in the staff proposed by Mr. CHATHAM is two Inspectors or Overseers. The Commission is not certain whether the increase proposed will be sufficient, but it might be given a trial, and if it proves insufficient, the staff should be still further strengthened.

WATER AND DRAINAGE.

15. Mr. CHADWICK is of opinion that Water and Drainage should be reconstituted Pages: as a separate Department independent of the Public Works Department, whilst Mr. CHATHAM Considers that such a separation is undesirable, but recommends that, whilst Water and Drainage remains a sub-department of the Public Works Department, it should be strengthened by appointing one Executive Engineer to be in charge of the Water only and another Executive Engineer to be in charge of the Drainage, instead of having only one Executive Engineer in charge of both Water and Drainage as at present, and by the appointment of a more responsible Clerk to take charge of the Water accounts.

139 142-145 175-181

184-185

Whilst fully sensible of the value of the opinion of an export of such experience as Mr. CHADWICK, the Commission is of opinion that, with a view to concentration and to the saving of increasd expense, which almost invariably results from the creation of separate departments, it would be well to follow the advice of Mr. CHATHAM and to strengthen the staff engaged on Water and Drainage in the manner proposed by him, but not to reconstitute it as a separate department.

As to the general question of the water-supply, though it has not been directly referred to it for inquiry and report, the Commission ventures to invite attention to the evidence given regarding it by the various witnesses and to the statements printed in Appendix No. 4, No. 5, and No. 6.

The evidence and these statements show that provision for increased water-supply has not been made so rapidly as the necessity of the case demanded.

The Commission regards the question of water-supply as one of immediate and pressing urgency, and desires to record its opinion that steps should be taken forthwith to put in hand such schemes as can be most rapidly carried out with a view to placing the Colony well ahead of its requirements instead of allowing it to lag behind in that respect.

The question is not only one of present urgency but one which concerns the future. The importance of not only providing against actual requirements but also possible future wants cannot be too strongly insisted on, as the prosperity of the Colony and the welfare of its inhabitants now and in the future are intimately connected with an ade- quate supply of water.

LIGHTING.

16. The Commission is of opinion that the lighting of the Queen's Road, between Fletcher Street and Arsenal Street, should be improved.

LAND WORK,

Evidence.

Pages:

131-184 188-159

17. The evidence given to the Commission shows that the work of the Department as regards land has not been carried out in a manner satisfactory to the public. There have been numerous complaints of delay, especially recently, and Mr. CHATHAM Confesses that such complaints are justified. He, however, points out that the staff dealing with land has not been properly constituted, rendering it impossible to overtake the work. For some considerable period-about two years--the work had been conducted by the Officer who had hitherto filled the post of Land Bailiff. He is of opinion, however, that with the staff as now constituted, consisting of à Land Surveyor, an Assistant Surveyor and a Land Bailiff, there ought to be no difficulty in carrying on the work in a satisfactory

manner.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

445

99-100

From the evidence of Mr. KING, Land Bailiff, it seems that the co-operation be- Evidence. tween the Public Works Department and the Police, who can give much valuable Pages:- assistance in the direction of preventing illegal squatting on land, has not been so close as is desirable. The Commission feels sure that it will be sufficient merely to call atten- tion to this matter to secure closer co-operation in future.

:

OFFICE ACCOMMODATION.

18. Mr. HUGHES, in his evidence, drew attention to the want of office accommodation. Evidence This matter is receiving attention, and it is hoped by Mr. CHATHAM that he will be able Pages:- to provide accommodation sufficient for the staff recommended by him.

ENTRUSTING GOVERNMENT WORK TO PRIVATE FIRMS.

102-103

19. One question on which a good deal of evidence was given was whether it is Evidence. desirable to entrust the carrying out of Government work to private firms.

Pages :----

10-11

84

119-121

146-147

The evidence given does not show clearly that such a course would, as a rule, lead 1120-11 to either greater efficiency, better work or saving of public expenditure, whilst, as Mr. 134-139 CHADWICK points out, there are objections to giving out Government work in the manner 180-163 proposed, and difficulties as to selection of firms which could not be easily met.

After careful consideration and in view of the fact that Mr. CHATHAM states that the staff, if increased as proposed by him, will be sufficient to carry out all works involving an expenditure equal to that for which provision is made in the Estimates for 1902, the Commission is not in favour, under ordinary circumstances, of giving out public works to private firms, and is of opinion that this should not be done except in cases of a special nature or of urgency, when the staff of the Public Works Department is not able to carry out a work.

J81-182

ARCHITECTS.

-

20. Mr. GALE is of opinion that two of the Assistant Engineers in the Public Works Evigne. Department should be qualified Architects. Mr. CHATHAM agrees with that opinion, Page 87 and the Commission recommends that it be adopted.

SUMMARY OF INCREASE OF STAFF AND ESTIMATED ADDITIONAL EXPENDITURE.

21. The increase in the staff of the Public Works Department recommended by the Commission beyond what is provided in the Estimates for 1902, may be summarised as follows:--

1 Executive Engineer for the supervision of Extraordinary Works.

1 Executive Engineer for Drainage or Water-works.

1 Assistant Engineer for general Maintenance Work (Government Buildings,

Roads, &c.)

1 Overseer for Roads inside the City.

1 Overseer for Telephones.

2 Overseers or Inspectors for performing the duties imposed on the Public

Works Department by the Building Ordinances.

1 Overseer for Water-works, City and Hill District.

1 Experienced Clerk to take charge of the Water accounts.

Evidence.

Evidence.

126-128

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902

-

The present staff is not up to the strength provided for in the 1902 Estimates; which accounts for the apparent disparity between the summary given above, and the increase of staff referred to in the evidence, which refers entirely to the staff in existence. when the Commission was first appointed.

The expenditure on account of these increases in the staff beyond that provided for in the Estimates for 1902, is estimated at $29,500 (See Appendix No. 25.)

CROWN AGENT SYSTEM.

22. In view of the statements made regarding the Crown Agents, the Commission Pages:-- thought it only fair to all parties concerned that those statements should be thoroughly investigated, though the Crown Agent system was not referred to it for inquiry and report.

140

148-149 182-183

Evidence.

Appendix No. 22 contains a list shewing the various firms that supplied goods and materials to this Colony, during the last ten years, through the Crown Agents. The variety of firms on the list shews that the field of selection for purchases is a wide one and not too circumscribed, as has been suggested.

      Mr. DENISON in his evidence stated that he knew an instance in which he was pur- Page 122 chasing iron for his clients at a much cheaper rate than that at which it was being

supplied at the same time to the Colony by the Crown Agents.

Evidence.

-་

From the correspondence in Appendix No. 19, it appears that Mr. DENISON is mistaken and that, as a matter of fact, the Crown Agents were supplying the Colony with iron at a cheaper rate than that at which Mr. DENISON obtained it for his clients.

It was also stated by a member of the Commission that the Crown Agents had Pages: forwarded a consignment of cement to Hongkong without having received any requisi-

tion in the usual way from the Government.

127-128

168

The documents in Appendix No. 23 shew that the cement in question was duly ordered by the Director of Public Works, Mr. ORMSBY, who appears to have forgotten that he had sent his order and to have misled others into believing that the Crown Agents had forwarded the cement without authority.

Those witnesses who have had practical experience of the Crown Agent system, including Mr. CHADWICK, all speak highly of it, and the Commission is of opinion that it works well and that it would not be easy to substitute for it any other system that would work so satisfactorily.

DISCHARGE OF DUTIES BY P. W. D. FROM 1ST OCT., 1899 TO 30TH SEPT., 1900.

23. The second subject of reference on which the Commission was appointed to report is stated in the Commission as follows:-

The manner in which the duties devolving upon the Public Works Depart- ment have been performed during the period of two years preceding the 1st day of October, 1901.

In view of the evidence given to the Commission, it is of opinion that, owing to insufficiency of staff, it was not possible for the Department to discharge its duties thoroughly.

2

Through want of staff, public works, including water-works, have been delayed, and the general business of the Department has not been conducted with that promptitude which the Commission regards as most necessary and desirable.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

24. In conclusion the Commission recommends that no expenditure on account of public works should be included in the yearly Estimates, unless there is every reason to anticipate that such moneys will be expended during the financial year, and that such works as are approved in those Estimates should be taken in hand without delay and not postponed unless for exceptional reasons.

I

agree with the above Report except that I am not of the opinion that the Crown Agent system works well. I think the Government would be better served by its own Agents, under its own orders, whom the Government could change when dissatis- fied. I do not think that the Crown Agents should be entrusted with the floating of loans. That should be done through a Bank or financial firm of first class standing.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

STAFF AND DUTIES.

The staff consists of the Director, Assistant Director, 3 Executive Engineers, 6 Assistant Engineers, 2 Land Surveyors, an English Draftsman, a Superintendent of the Clerical and Accounting Branch, a Land Bailiff, 20 European Overseers, and 124 Clerks, Foremen and others.

The staff on the Praya Reclamation consists of two Executive Engineers, a Chief Clerk, two Overseers and 46 Divers, Bargemen and others.

The total number of these two establishments is, therefore, 206, the monthly salaries and wages amounting to over $12,000.

In addition to these, the Survey Party, engaged upon the New Territory, which consists of an English Officer in charge and 152 Indians, &c., is under the Director of Public Works. There is also a sum of about $350 per week expended in wages for labour employed departmentally on house service work for Water Supply.

The Director of Public Works is a Member of the Executive and Legislative Councils and is also Chairman of the Public Works Committee, Chairman of the Queen's and Wongneich'ung Recreation Grounds Committee, a Member of the Sanitary Board and Member of the Squatters' Board. He is frequently appointed to serve on Com- mittees. During the past 8 months, Committees of which he was a member have dealt with the following subjects:-

Additional Market accommodation; Removal of Explosives Magazine; Removal

of the Gaol to Stonecutters; Housing of Officials; Taxation of Land in the New Territory; and Provision of a Quarantine Station.

For the four first mentioned subjects, plans and estimates had to be prepared. The ordinary work of his office includes all transactions in Crown Land, appli- cations for extensions or conversions of lots, valuations of land, compensation to squat- ters, laying out of roads and lots, reporting non-fulfilment of building covenants, ad- vising Government as to all public works, revising specifications for important works, obtaining and submitting estimates, referring to Government matters connected with the Building and Waterworks administration, directing the staff of the Department, making arrangements to fill vacancics and other matters connected with the staff, and reporting on the staff and numerous other subjects. Besides all this, many important matters came up for consideration. The following which have been dealt with during the past 8 months will serve as examples :--

>

(1.) The Electric Tramways Ordinance.

·

(2.) The Kowloon Water Supply Scheme, estimated to cost $835,000.

(3.) The Praya East Reclamation Scheme, estimated to cost about $5,000,000. (4.) The abolition of the Quarry Farm and introduction of a new system of

letting the Granite Quarries.

(5.) The devising of an improved type of Chinese houses.

(6.) The reply to the Petition on the Sanitary Condition of the Colony.

Of the entire correspondence which reaches the Colonial Secretary's Office, fully one-fourth emanates from the Director of Public Works, the remaining three-fourths coming from the other Government Departments (15 in number) and the general pub- lic. Of the latter portion more than one-fourth of the documents are referred to the Director of Public Works on account of their raising subjects which come within his

scope.

The Director ought also to exercise some supervision over the execution of works, but, under existing conditions, this is quite impossible.

452

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The Assistant Director of Public Works.-This office was only revived in 1898, and, owing to the inadequacy of the Staff, it has never been possible to organize its duties properly. The duties of the Assistant Director ought to be to deal with the routine work and to assist in exercising supervision over the preparation and execution of contracts and the operations of the Staff generally. He is also entrusted with the general supervision of the Praya Reclamation Works.

From the statement given of the Director's duties, it will be plainly seen that there is amply sufficient for the Assistant Direct or to do, without any risk of unduly curtailing the work of the former.

Mr. Tooker, Executive Engineer, has charge of the Maintenance Works, exclusive of Water and Drainage items, Dredging Foreshores, Miscellaneous Services and por- tion of Miscellaneous Works. He is also in charge of the Building Ordinance Works and supervises Private Streets Improvements and the clearing of stream courses with a view to the abatement of fever.

He has the following staff of overseers and foremen to assist in carrying on the above work.

Maintenance of Buildings and Miscellaneous Works:-Messrs. MUGFORD, COYLE, WOLFE and another. The last mentioned appointment is vacant on account of the overseer having decamped and no one having been obtained to fill his place. Application has been made to the Colonial Office to appoint a suitable man. There are also two foremen, C. GRANT and HUI KWAI, employed on this work.

Maintenance of Roads and Telephones:-Messrs. DOUGHERTY and CARROL. These two officers are both on leave at present and their places have been temporarily filled by Messrs. FRANKLIN and FARRELL. The latter supervises the telephone work. There are also engaged on roads, the following foremen :-NIMMO, PORTARIA, NEVES, LI SING and U PAT.

Maintenance of Cemetery.-A foreman gardener, named HUI SZE, and two working gardeners are employed in addition to men furnished by a Contractor. The extension of the Cemetery from time to time by forming new terraces is carried out by Contractors. Maintenance of Public Rereation Ground.-A custodian named GODWIN is employed in looking after the Happy Valley and supervising the coolies employed in grass- cutting, &c.

Building Ordinance Work.-Mr. CRISP is the only overseer employed on this work. He devotes the whole of his time to it.

Clearing of Stream Courses.-This work is looked after by Sapper WILLIAMS who has been lent for the purpose by the Military Authorities.

Private Streets Improvements. Mr. XAVIER, Assistant Engineer, conducts the work, and a foreman named L. CASTRO is employed in looking after it. Apart from the operations of surfacing, &c., the names of all the owners concerned in each lane have to be ascertained, the cost apportioned among them and bills sent out to them."

Mr. Gale, Executive Engineer, has charge of all Public Works Extraordinary with the exception of the Praya Reclamation and Waterworks.

The works at present actually in progress are the following

Law Courts Foundations; Governor's Peak Residence; No. 7 Police Station; three Police Stations in New Territory; Gaol Officers' Quarters; Tái Pó Road; Pokfulum Conduit Rond; Western Market Foundations; Harbour Office Foundations; Home for Quarantined Dogs; Training and Diverting Nullah near Tram Station and Catch- water at Mount Cameron.

Land Branch.-Application has been made to the Colonial Office for a properly qualified Surveyor to conduct the work of this branch. At present, the duties are carried on by Mr. KING, Land Bailiff.

The work is of a responsible nature, involving at times troublesome questions, and it is necessary that it should be under qualified supervision. Mr. KING's duties are, of course, confined purely to office work, as he has no knowledge of surveying.

The surveying is performed by Mr. JACOB, who appears to be a capable man, but, as he is a native of India and has not full command of the English language, he is not qualified to assume charge of the work. I consider him fitted to act as an assistant.

Mr. GREY, a surveyor who was appointed locally, is at present exclusively enga- ged in surveys connected with the New Territory for the Land Court.

Two tracers, TANG NGOK WAN and WENG A FAT, are employed in connection with land survey work, preparing sale and lease plans, and keeping the plans and records

up to date.

SIR,I have the honour to transmit for your consideration the enclosed copy of a letter from the Acting Director of Public Works, respecting the urgent necessity for increasing the Staff of his Department.

2. Having considered the demands upon the l'ublic Works Department, I agree with Mr CHATHAM that, in view of the rapid increase of the Colony, the proposed in- crease of Staff is necessary.

3. I accordingly submit Mr. CHATHAM's proposals for your approval, and propose to embody them in the Estimates for 1902 unless I hear to the contrary from you by telegram.

4. I shall also be glad to learn by cable whether the appointment of Principal Land Surveyor, proposed in my Despatch, No. 167 of 30th April, 1901, can be included in the Estimates for 1902 which are now in hand.

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE,

HONGKONG, 5th June, 1901.

SIR,-In forwarding the Establishment Estimates of this Department for 1902, I desire to point out the urgent necessity for increasing the Staff in order to render it capable of carrying out efficiently the numerous and important Public Works in pro- gress or about to be undertaken.

I feel somewhat diffident in putting forward my proposals, as I am only a locum tenens, but the necessity for increased staff is so palpable that I would fail in my duty if I did not point it out. It is with the Engineering Staff alone that I propose to deal.

I find that in C.S.O. 2359/1900, Mr. ORMSBY gave it as his opinion that the staff, with the addition of one Assistant Engineer, (referred to as "Special Engineer" in his minute), would be sufficient to carry out the works included in this year's Estimates, provided certain Officers returned from leave and no resignation or casualties occurred.

All the Officers returned from leave, with the exception of Mr. DRURY, who was transferred to the Imperial Service. To fill the vacancy thus created, several promo- tions were made, and a new Assistant Engineer was appointed locally at a salary of $1,800 per annum.

458-

:

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The Department is, therefore, up to the full strength contemplated by Mr. ORMSBY when writing his minute. There have been no resignations or casualties among the Officers.

The staff is, however, in my opinion, inadequate for carrying on the large works in progress or in contemplation, and for complying with the continual demand for plans and estimates of new projects.

In order to support my opinion, I would point out that, notwithstanding the tak- ing over of the New Territory and the enormous development now going on in the Colony, no addition whatever has been made to the Engineering Staff.

+

I give below a statement of it as it existed in 1892 and in 1898, selecting these years because the former saw the Department put on a proper footing to cope with the work of that period, and the latter was the year prior to the taking over of the New Territory.

I have omitted Officers engaged on the Praya Reclamation Scheme from the state- ment, as that work stands by itself.

From the comparative statement I have given, it will be seen that there has been absolutely no increase and, to any one acquainted with the Colony for the past 10 years, it will be obvious that a staff which was sufficient in 1892 must be wholly in- adequate now. At that time the Engineers charged with the supervision of the Build- ing Ordinance and ordinary Water and Drainage Works had an opportunity of devoting a portion of their time to special undertakings forming part of the programme of Ex- traordinary Public Works. Now, however, that is practically out of the question, as building work throughout the Colony is so active that it is with difficulty the extensions of roads, water mains and sewers can be overtaken in time to meet the requirements.

In the same way, the demands for Extraordinary Public Works, including Water- works, Markets, Police Stations, Sanitary Works, etc., are far in excess of what they were. Finally the New Territory, where 7 Police Stations and 14 miles of road have been constructed or are in progress, makes considerable inroads upon the time of the Engineering Staff.

I have, therefore, to submit for the consideration of His Excellency the Governor the following recommendations :-

(1.) Mr. A. H. HOLLINGSWORTH to be an Executive Engineer, thus restoring the number of Officers of this class to 3 as in 1892. Mr. HOLLINGS- WORTH has been an Assistant Engineer for the past 4 years and has been carrying on the Water and Drainage Works since Mr. CROOK'S departure for Gibraltrar.

(2.) The additional Assistant Engineers to be obtained from England, each with a salary of $2,400, and Exchange Compensation, and Travelling Allowance of $360.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902:

 The only other matters to which it is necessary for me to call attention are the appointment of the Principal Land Surveyor, sanctioned in C.S.O. 1144/1901, and the proposal to add one or two more Land Bailiffs to the Land Survey Branch, C.S.O. 608/1901.

 In accordance with His Excellency's minute of the 15th October last, in C.S.O. 2359/1900, I have not included in the Estimates the provision required for the former appointment, as the approval of the Secretary of State has not yet been received.

 The Squatters Board have recommended the appointment of two additional Land Bailiffs, and I have reported that I consider one will be sufficient. In the event of either proposal being approved, provision will require to be made in next year's Esti- mates in addition to the staff appearing in the Estimates as submitted..

 SIR,-I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your despatch No. 222 of the 12th June last, submitting Mr. CHATHAM's proposals for the increase of the staff of the Public Works Department.

 2. I caused a copy of your despatch, with its enclosure, to be transmitted to Mr. ORMSBY for any observations that might occur to him, and I enclose a copy of his reply.

 3. I approve of the promotion of Mr. HOLLINGSWORTH to the rank of Executive Engineer, and I see no objection to provision being made on the Estimates for 1902 for the appointment of an additional Assistant Engineer, to fill the vacancy caused by Mr. HOLLINGSWORTH'S promotion, and an additional Land Bailiff.

 4. In view of your telegram of the 6th instant, I am not prepared to press Mr. ORMSBY'S suggestion in regard to the post of Principal Land Surveyor. The Crown Agents for the Colonies will accordingly be asked to select a candidate from this country for the appointment. They will also be asked to engage an additional Assistant En- gineer, who will, of course, not leave this country before 1st January next at the earliest.

SIR,I have the honour, acknowledge receipt of your letter No. 25364/1901 of the 30th ultimo and to return as directed the enclosure therewith received.

2. I note that Mr. CHATHAM proposes (a) the promotion of Mr. HOLLINGSWORTH to the rank of Executive Engineer; (b) the appointment of two additional Assistant Engineers from England; (c) the appointment of a Principal Land Surveyor (also I presume from England) and one additional Land Bailiff

3. With regard to (a) I agree with Mr. CHATHAM. Mr. HOLLINGSWORTH, since Mr. CROOK's transfer to Gibraltar, has been in full charge of the Water Works and Drainage Works of the Colony, a distinct branch of the Department, which, I believe, was always in charge of an Executive Engineer. It would practically cause no change except in Mr. HOLLINGSWORTH'S title; as he has been for a year carrying on the duties of an Executive Engineer, directly under the Head of the Department.

4. I do not agree that two additional Assistant Engineers are now required. Last year, Mr. CROOK's transfer to Gibraltar and Mr. GIBBS' resignation occurring within a few months and thus weakening the Department by the loss of two of the most ex- perienced and efficient officers, caused a great strain on the staff, while not much help could be expected from the three newly appointed officers--Messrs. Mossor, Fisher, and TRIMMINGHAM. But now it may be assumed that these officers have acquired the needful experience of local conditions and methods of work, and become useful and efficient members of the staff.

5. It must be borne in mind that in Hongkong there is little or no Departmental work, but that all work is done by contract, also that all payments are made in the Treasury, and thus the Engineering Staff spared duties which take up fully half of the time of officers holding similar appointments in Ceylon, while it is always possible to obtain, for special works, the services of private Engineering Firms, as has been done lately in regard to the New Kowloon Water Supply, the Victoria Jubilee Road and Hospital and other works.

6. Five large permanent Police Stations have been built in the New Territory, two more have been contracted for, which completes all the buildings required in that district for a long time to come. If no special loan for the more rapid development of the Territory is contemplated, the construction of the main road to Taipó and Sam-chun must necessarily go on slowly, at, say, the rate of three or four miles annually, and this only takes up the time of an Assistant Engineer (Mr. HUGHES) who has been on this special work since its commencement. The whole of the construction and inaintenance work in the New Territory would be considered a small charge for one District Engin- eer in Ceylon.

7. Keeping in mind the comparatively small area of the Colony, I think great care should be taken not to unduly increase the permanent and pensionable establishment. I am therefore of opinion that one additional Assistant Engineer will be sufficient.

8. I ste no necessity for the appointment of a Land Surveyor from England. Owing to the very limited area of the Colony, and the smallness of the lots put up for sale, surveys are of the simplest nature. The Department have in Mr. B. W. GREY an officer fully qualified to do the work of Land Surveyor, with Mr. JACOB as Assist- Mr. GREY was trained in the Ceylon Survey Department and holds a licence, obtained after examination by the Surveyor General of that Colony, to practise as Land Surveyor.

ant.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

9. The Government having gone to the great expense of a complete cadastral · survey of the New Territory by a special staff lent by the Government of India, the addition of the New Territory will add little, if anything, to the work of the Surveyor of the Department.

10. An additional Land Bailiff is certainly necessary owing to the extension of the area of the Colony. This appointment should be filled locally, as a knowledge of Colloquial Chinese is absolutely essential.

11. I regret that I have been unable to endorse the views of the Acting Director of Public Works, supported as they are by His Excellency the Governor, but possibly. some of the reasons I have advanced against such a large permanent increase in the staff have not been fully considered.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient Servant,

·R. 'D. ORMSBY,

Director of Public Works, Hongkong.

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE,

HONGKONG, 25th September, 1901.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit the following report with regard to iny pro- posals for increasing the Engineering Staff of this Department,

In June last, when forwarding the Establishment Estimates for 1902, I reported that I considered the appointment of two additional Assistant Engineers necessary in order to render the Department capable of carrying on the works in progress and of complying with the continual demand for plans and estimates of new projects (C.S.O. 1786 of 1901).

On the 11th instant, having been asked what further increase of staff I considered necessary in view of the programme of works drawn up for 1902, I stated that I con- sidered that two more Assistant Engineers would be required to carry it out in addition to the two already asked for, making four in all (C.S.O. 2219 of 1901).

Both these recommendations received the approval of His Excellency the Governor, but before the latter were forwarded to the Secretary of State, a despatch No. 265 dated the 13th August was received from the Secretary of State forwarding a communication from Mr. ORMSBY and stating that one Assistant Engineer would be appointed in the beginning of January next.

From this it appears to be necessary for me to justify my recommendations by comparing the staff of a few years ago and its capabilities with the staff of to-day and the demands which are made upon it.

462

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

In Mr. COOPER's Annual Report for 1894, Appendix J, will be found the follow- ing note:-

Fair Average Yearly Expenditure is-

on Annual Recurrent Works on Extraordinary Public Works

Total,...........

.$150,000

300,000

.$450,000

The Engineering Staff in that year consisted of 3 Executive Engineers, 4 Assist- ant Engineers and 2 Draftsmen-a total of 9. Mr. COOPER, prior to his appointment to Ceylon, considered it advisable to strengthen the staff by the addition of one Assist- ant Engineer, and this increase was made in the beginning of 1897, bringing the total up to 10.

I attach a statement showing the amounts provided in the Estimates and actually expended during the respective years from 1894 to 1900, after eliminating the expend- iture on Praya Reclamation, Resumptions of Property for public purposes, Survey of New Territory, and Works not actually carried out by the staff of this Department. It also shows the amounts provided in this and next year's Estimates.

From this statement it will be seen that the estimated expenditure for 1901 is almost exactly double the actual expenditure for 1894, whilst the Estimates for 1902 show an increase of $80,000 over those of 1901. Comparing the Estimates for 1902 with the actual expenditure for 1897, when the staff numbered 10, the increase is seen to be nearly $400,000, whilst the staff has been increased by one solitary member, consisting at the present time of the Assistant Director of Public Works, 3 Executive Engineers, 6 Assistant Engineers and 1 Draftsman.

ན:

It must be unnecessary for me to point out that the expenditure for this year will fall far short of the estimated amount, notwithstanding the fact that all the drawings required in connection with the Law Courts and the Governor's Peak Residence and the requisitions for materials for the same are being supplied by outside Architectural Firms. Equally, it will be impossible for the Department to overtake the programme of Works drawn up for 1902, unless it be materially strengthened without delay. In this way works which are considered of great urgency are falling into arrear and, if the Department is not to be rendered capable of keeping pace with the greatly in- creased demands made upon it, the consequences to the Colony generally will be most serious.

I have confined my remarks so far to the carrying out of the works for which provision is made in the Estimates. There are also to be considered the continually increasing duties and responsibilities which are added to the Department by various Ordinances and the enormously increased demand for plans and estimates of Works which are rendered necessary by the great expansion of the Colony.

That great expansion is in progress is, I think, sufficiently proved by the fact that in 1894 the land sales amounted to $72,852, bearing an annual rental of $2,304, whilst in 1900 the amounts were $810,614 and $26,308 respectively.

I do not propose to refer to the Building Ordinance Work, for the carrying out of which recommendations have been submitted by the Public Works Committee in a separate report.

Mr. ORMSBY's remarks in paragraph 5 of his letter are not to the point. The practice followed now as regards the carrying out of work and the making of payments is exactly the same as in former years. I cannot recommend the practice of employing private Engineering Firms, except in einergencies or where some special reasons exist. It is, in my opinion, expensive and, as a rule, unsatisfactory.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETFE, 11TH APRIL, 1092.

I beg to conclude by stating that I am fully convinced that, unless immediate steps are taken to increase the staff of this Department by adding four Assistant En- gineers, very serious consequences are likely to arise. Mr. ORMSBY has fallen into the too common error of regarding this Colony as small because its area is somewhat limited, but it must be borne in mind that it contains the fourth largest City in point of popu lation in the Colonial Empire (vide p. XXIV of the Colonial Office List) and that it ranks third amongst the Shipping ports of the world.

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE, HONGKONG, 6th December, 1901.

SIR, I have the honour to forward, for the information of the Public Works Com- mission, a copy of Mr. Cooper's Report on the Water Supply of the City of Victoria and Hill District and to subjoin the following remarks with regard to what has been done in order to give effect to the recommendations contained in it.

On page 11 will be found particulars of a project for increasing the capacity of Notifica Tytam Reservoir which included the raising of the dam and the extension of the tion, No. catchment area by the construction of a catchwater to the East a little over one and a 11th July, half miles long. These works were completed early in 1897.

260 of

1898.

Ibid.

Ibid.

The estimated capacity of Tytam Reservoir is now 384,800,000 gallons to over- flow level and can be increased to 407,000,000 gallons by inserting sluice boards 2 feet in height on top of the overflow dam.

On page 14, under the heading "Distribution of Water within the City and Hill Districts," reference is made to certain works which were in progress at the time. the Report was written and to the necessity of laying new mains in certain roads. These works have been carried out, as lias also the construction of the covered service reservoir at the l'eak referred to in paragraph.120.

The repairs to No. 2 Tank have not been carried out however, the tank having been disconnected from the distribution system since the date of the Report. I consi- der that it will be necessary to reconstruct this tank entirely and that it will be advisable to move the position of it at the same time, as its present site cannot be regarded as a satisfactory one.

On page 17, under the heading "Particulars of Proposed Works to meet Present Requirements" are detailed certain works, which include a reservoir at Wonguieich'ung Gap, catchwaters to increase the catchment areas of this reservoir and of that at Tytam and certain additional Filter Beds.

These works have all been carried out and the only modifications which were male in the proposals were the substitution of thin steel for cast iron pipes for conveying the water across the ravine below Tytan Reservoir and the omission of the 5" cast iron main from Wongneich'ung Reservoir to the Ty tam Conduit.

The former modification was made by Mr. Cooper himself. With regard to the latter the provision of the 5" main was considered unnecessary in carrying out the work, as the natural stream course was available for conveying the water the greater part of the distance, a small dam and pipe being provided to lead it into the conduit.

Of the works referred to in the tabulated statement on page 17, all have been carried out with the exception of the first item and the repairs to No. 2 Tank, already mentioned.

With regard to the Improvements of Pokfulam Conduit, there is no definite information on the subject as to what Mr. Cooper's intentions were. I have no doubt, however, that he meant to improve or alter the syphons which convey the water flow- ing through the conduit across several deep valleys occurring along the route.

I am of opinion that the best method of carrying out the improvements will be to bridge the valleys in the same manner as has been done in the case of the Tytam Conduit.

The object of the work is to enable a larger proportion of the supply, to be drawn from Pokfutain Reservoir during the summer months, as that Reservoir fills up and is. liable to overflow at a much earlier period than Tytam.

In the Estimates for the year 1897 it will be found that the sum of $267,000 appears opposite the item "City and Hill District Waterworks" under the heading "Estimated Cost," instead of $260,000 as given in the Report. The additional sum of $7,000 was to cover the cost of extending the City maies to North Point an Wongnei- ch'ung, a work which has been carried out.

The only other item described in Mr. Cooper's Report, towards the carrying out of which steps have been taken, is the Reservoir referrel to on page 20 as that on Site No. 3, paragraph 159, a contract for which has just been let.

:

I consider it desirable to proceed as early as possible with the construction of the. Reservoir on Site No. 1, page 19, and have given instructions for the necessary plans, &c., to be prepared.

It has been found necessary to carry ont certain works in connection with the City and Hill District Waterworks, which do not appear in Mr.. Cooper's Report, beyond the mere mention of the fact that the construction of the filter beds below Bowen Road would furnish facilities for actuating a small hydraulic motor in the event of a supply being required above Bowen Road.

This motor has been established and has been so constructed as to be capable of pumping alternatively into a service reservoir above Bowen Road for the supply of the High Level District, or into one at Mount Gough for the supply of the Hi'l District. The former reservoir is nearing completion and the latter is being begun. Meanwhile, the motor is being used to pump into small iron tanks on Mount Gough, which supply the houses on Barker Road and at Magazine Gap.

In consequence of the formation of Conduit Road and the erection of numerous houses above it, a new service réservoir has been constructed some distance above Belilios Terrace and the necessary mains in connection with it have been laid. A main is now being laid along Bowen Road to connect this reservoir with the one referred to in the preceding paragraph as being nearly completed above Bowen Road.

Two new filter beds have been constructed at West Point for the purpose of enabling the additional quantity of water drawn from Pokfulam Reservoir to be dealt with.

A 3" additional rising main to the Peak has been laid and a 5′′ inain has been laid in substitution for the 3" formerly existing from the Peak Reservoir to Victoria Gap. The pipes obtained by dispensing with the latter have been utilized for the main required in Barker Road, which connects through to the Magazine Gap Road main.

The following is a statement of the expenditure incurred under the heading, City and Hill District Waterworks" in carrying out the above works, commencing with the programme contained in the tabulated statement on page 17 of Mr. Cooper's Report:-

i

It will be gathered from the foregoing remarks that very considerable works have been carried out during the past 5 years for improving and extending the water supply of the City and Hill District but that the addition of Storage Reservoirs has been allowed to lag behind somewhat. The principal causes of this have, I think, been the pressure of other necessary public works and the inadequacy of the staff to undertake more. It can safely be asserted, at all events, that the existing staff has been kept fully employed in connection with the works which have been carried out during recent

years.

I append a tabular statement of Mr. Cooper's recommendations with notes as to what has been done towards carrying them out.

REPORT OF PROCEEDINGS OF THE PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE

at a Meeting held on the 27th August, 1901.

Present: The Honourable the Acting Director of Public Works (William Chatham), Chairman; the Honourable the Acting Colonial Treasurer (Charles McIlvaine Messer); the Honourable Catchick Paul Chater, C.M.G.; the Honourable Dr. Ho Kai; the Honourable John Thurburn.

1. Supervision of Building Operations in the Colony. (C.S.O. 2137.)

The Chairman explained that this question, which had arisen out of the collapse of houses in Cochrane Street, had been referred to the Committee by direction of His Ex- cellency the Governor in Council. He then read a report by Mr. Tooker, dated 23rd · July, on the subject of the recent collapse, and a lengthy minute by the Honourable Acting Attorney General on the same subject, which was contained in C.S.O. 1901.

2518

The following recommendations were unanimously adopted by the Committee:-

1.) The duties of the Public Works Department to be confined to general super- vision as regards the construction of new buildings, the staff being increased in order to render such general supervision effective.

(2.) In the case of alterations or additions to existing buildings, the duty of inspec- tion in order to ascertain the structural capability of such buildings to undergo such alterations or additions to devolve upon the Public Works Department.

(3.) The Director of Public Works to have full discretion in the matter of sanc- tioning or refusing to sanction any alterations or additions to existing buildings. His decision shall, however, be subject to appeal to the Governor in Council as provided by Section 87 of Ordinance 15 of 1889.

(4.) The staff of the Public Works Departinent for the supervision of work under the Building Ordinances to consist of at least one Assistant Engineer at a commencing salary of £300 and travelling allowance of $360 per annum, and four thoroughly com. petent Overseers at commencing salaries of £200 each with travelling allowances of $270 each per annum.

(5.) All Architects or Engineers, in order to be admitted as competent to submit plans or proposals under the Building Ordinances, must hold the certificate of some Body or Incorporated Society, recognized by the Government, as a guarantee of their fitness to practise as Architects or Engineers. This stipulation to come into force upon the passing of the Ordinance.

(6.) All works carried out under the Building Ordinances to be supervised until their completion by an Architect or Engineer of the standing specified in clause (5), who must have power to employ, at the expense of the party on whose behalf the work is being executed, such amount of skilled supervision as he may consider necessary.

(7.) Any party not possessed of the qualification specified in clause (5), who may attempt to submit plans or carry out work, falling within the scope of the Building Ordinances, to be punishable by law.

(8.) All buildings hereafter erected of the type known as Chinese tenement houses to have courses of hoop iron bond built into the walls at the level of the foundations, each floor and the caves of roof. The hoop iron to measure 14" wide by 34" thick and to consist of two bonds in each course in 14" walls and three bonds in each course in 18" walls and foundations. The bonds to be continuous, whenever practicable, and to be lap-jointed. Where continuous bonds are impracticable such bonds to be arranged as required by the Director of Public Works.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

2. Surface Overcrowding. (C.S.O. 2841.)

The Chairman mentioned that this matter had also been referred to the Committee by His Excellency the Governor in Council. He then read a letter from the Secretary of the Sanitary Board, dated the 28th June, 1901, forwarding certain resolutions with regard to the height of buildings and other matters, and a minute by himself arising out of the letter referred to,

The following recommendations were unanimously adopted by the Committee:--

(1.) No building shall be hereafter erected or raised to a height exceeding one-and- a-half times the width of the street upon which it fronts. Provided always that no domestic building shall be of more than four storeys in height including a ground floor and three upper floors. For the purposes of this section, the width of street and height of building shall be measured in accordance with Section 6 of Ordinance 34 of 1899." This section shall not apply, however, to the re-erection of buildings which have already been erected in excess of the height specified.

Exceptions to the above rule inay be granted by the Governor in Council.

(2.) No balcony shall, except with the sanction of the Governor in Council, here- after be permitted in any street, whether public or private, which measures less than 25 feet in width.

(3.) No verandah shall, except with the sanction of the Governor in Council, hereafter be permitted in any street, whether public or private, which measures less than 50 feet in width.

(4.) No verandah shal, except with the sanction of the Governor in Council, hereafter exceed three storeys in height, including a ground floor and two upper floors, except in streets of 60 feet in width and upwards.

The Committee strongly recommend the immediate enactment of their recommend- ations under the heading "Surface Overcrowding, as some time will probably elapse before the new Building Ordinance can be passeď.

PUBLIC WORKks Office, HONGKONG, 23rd December, 1901.

་י

SIR,-In accordance with your instructions, I have the honour to submit a report upon the suggestion which I made before the Public Works Commission on the 6th instant, viz., to lay down Australian Hardwood Block paving in Queen's Road from the Government Civil Hospital to Wanchai Market and in Des Voeux Road, say, from the Harbour Office to the City Hall.

2. Two of the many kinds of wood which grow in the forests of Western Australia have recently come to the front as eminently suitable for street paving, these are known as Jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata), and Karri (Eucalyptus diversicolor). A full description of these woods is given in a report by Mr. J. Edine Brown, Conservator of Forests for Western Australi, dated 1899.

3. Jarrah is without doubt the principal timber tree in the Western Australian forests, for general constructive works, necessitating contact with soil and water, the timber of this tree stands foremost. The late Baron Sir F. Von Meueller, the great and well known botanist of Victoria said: "the Jarrah is famed for its indestructible wood, which is neither attacked by the borings of the chelura, teredo, or ternute." The wood when thoroughly seasoned weighs about 60 lbs. per cube foot, and the prin- cipal uses to which it is as yet applied, are street paving, piles, jetties, bridges, boat- building and railway sleepers.

4. Karri is not so well known as Jarrah owing to the somewhat limited field of its growth, and at present comparative inaccessibility of its haunts, it is very like Jarrah in its appearance, indeed so like, that it takes a good judge of the two to distinguish each. It is hard, heavy, elastic and tough. It is said that for underground or water- works this timber is inferior to Jarrah, and still instances have been known of the timber having been in the ground for 30 or 40 years with only an ordinary amount of decay. For street paving it is most valuable and perhaps superior to its colleague, the Jarrah, inasmuch that its surface does not get so slippery by wear. This timber is now largely used in London for street paving.

5. The method of paving I would recommend is as follows:--

A cement concrete foundation at least 6′′ thick to be laid first formed smooth on the surface and to the shape of the finished road, upon this foundation the paving, forme l of blocks goaked in creosote 6" x 6" x 3" to be laid, the joints between the blocks to be racked with fine gravel, and subsequently granted with a mixture of boiling tar and pitch.

:

6. As I stated before the Commission, I am convinced that macadam roads as they exist here at present are no longer suited for the main thoroughfare in the centre of the City.

Doubtless the weight of ricksha traffic is little more than cwt. per inch width of tyre, which is small compared with that of an ordinary loaded two-wheeled cart esti- inated at 9 cwt. per inch width of tyre, but it is the amount of the ricksha traffic

which tells.

In 1890, there were 500 ricksha licences issued, and up to date of the current. year as many as 1,200.

1. In 1895, 615 trucks and carriages were licensed, and up to date of this year the number has reached 1,255.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

7. Speaking of macadamised roadways, Mr. H. Percy Boulnais (now City Engin- eer of Liverpool) in his book on Municipal Engineering, says: "Telford's object was the complete separation of the road metal from the subsoil by a firm and regular foundation, and this system has ever since held its ground."

The advantages to be gained by constructing a roadway in this manner may be summed up as follows:-

(1) Economy of construction, as a considerable quantity of metalling is saved.

(2) The prevention of the rising up or "spewing" of the clay or other soft

material on which the roadway rests.

(3) A solid foundation is secured which will successfully resist the weight

and precussions of the traffic.

(4) The increased facility for the drainage of the roadway, water being

ruinous to it.

No. 3 of the above advantages helps to explain why it is that, with a proper foundation hard stone can be used advantageously, as, having a good support, the traffic is enabled to wear the surface evenly.

8. In connection with the subject herein treated, the following statement by Mr. Boulnais is interesting. The great objections to macadamised roadways, are as

follows:-

(1) They manufacture too much mud and dust.

(2) They are too absorbent.

(3) They are very noisy, and damaging to vehicles.

(4) They constantly require mending but never seem quite sound.

(5) They are frequently encumbered by men and carts engaged in either" re-

pairs, cleansing or watering.

(6) They are very expensive to maintain and cleanse. I would call special attention to No. 2 of the above. Sanitarians are now agreed that in centres of population it is most desirable to have the thoroughfares non-absorbent.

9. Turning now to wood paving, its principal advantages may be stated as follows:---

(1) It is the quietest of all known pavements.

(2) It is much safer than either asphaltic or granite paving for horses travel-

ling upon it..

(3) It offers very little resistance to traction.

(4) It is very clean.

(5) Absorbes very little moisture.

(6) It is inexpensive to maintain. Its chief disadvantage is that it is not easy

to open

for the purpose of laying gas and water pipes etc., and it has to be left a little time after repairs before traffic is again allowed upon it.

This difficulty might, however, largely be met by a notice in the Gazette that parties wishing to lay gas pipes etc., in certain roads could do so before a certain date, as the roadway would not be allowed to be opened afterwards except for a very special purpose.

473

474

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

 10. The question of cost must, of course, as in most matters, be a considerable factor in the choice of a road pavement, but the old saying that "a bad article is dear at any price" holds good.

 For the purpose of comparing the annual cost of hardwood paving and of macadam it will be expedient to take the first cost of the former and that of a properly laid macadam roadway, viz., a roadway with a good foundation covered with durable metal. The subjoined table gives the comparison in respect of Queen's Road from the Civil Hospital to Wanchai Market and Des Voeux Road from the Harbour Office to the City Hall.

 11. Through the courtesy of Mr. Henry Blake, son of Sir Henry Blake, G.C.M.G., I obtained the price of Australian hardwood (Jarrah or Karri) direct from Australia, since I was before the Commission. It is more than I anticipated, so that the cost of paving formied of these timbers would be $9.50 per square yard instead of $6.00 as I stated in evidence, thus the first cost of such pavement would be very expensive, but I am convinced, and Mr. Blake, who knows the timber well, agrees with me, that it would be practically indestructible under ricksha traffic. The figures in the table show that this paving, over the area suggested to be paved, would cost about $1,000 per annum more than what a good macadam road would cost, but for general superior qualities there would be no comparison, and it should not be lost sight of that the tendency is for the traffic to increase in Hongkong and for prices to go up, so much so that I would not be surprised if the cost of maintaining main macadamised roads here went up to $1.00 per square yard in a few years.

 12. However the high price of Australian hardwood induced me to enquire if one of the many excellent Borneo hardwoods would not suit our purpose equally as well at a much less cost, and I believe that Borneo camphor would fulfil the requirements. It is a good sound hardwood and seems in every way suited for street paving, and of a very reasonable cost. The table shows that its annual cost including interest on original outlay, would be much less than the cost of a good macadam road, of course the use of this wood for street paving would be quite a new departure, but I would strongly recommend that a small portion be laid down in Queen's Road, say, opposite- the Post Office, as an experiment, as soon as possible.

I have the honour to be,

Appendix No. 12.

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE, HONGKONG, 1st January, 1902.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit a report upon the lighting of Queen's Road East between Arsenal Street and the Wanchai Market, for the information of the Public Works Commission.

This road is at present lighted by 8 Electric lamps of 2,000 candle power each, there is, however, no denying that the trees in this neighbourhood greatly obscure the light from these lamps, shadows are cast and dark places are formed, so that it becomes a question of either removing the trees or supplementing the light by some means.

The latter could be done by erecting a few gas lamps with incandescent burners "S" pattern.

I submit a plan B showing the proposed positions.

The cost would be as follows:-5 lamps at $50-$250.00.

The annual cost of lighting the same would be $165.00.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

H. P. TOOKER,

Acting Assistant Director of Public Works.

The Honourable J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, C.M.G., Chairman, Public Works Commission.

477

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE, HONGKONG, 23rd January, 1902..

SIR, With reference to Mr. MASTER'S letter of the 16th instant, in connection with my report upon the lighting of Queen's Road East between Arsenal Street and the Wanchai Market, I regret the mistake on my part as to the exact portion of Queen's Road referred to by Mr. MASTER when I was before the Public Works Commission..

I admit that the bend in the road opposite Victoria Barracks is badly lighted owing to the trees obstructing the rays from the adjacent electric lamp.

One gas lamp fitted with an "S" pattern Incandescent burner would, however, surmount the difficulty, and I show upon plan B the position I would suggest.

The lighting of the road opposite the Arsenal Yard is also somewhat shaded by trees at present, but until the roadway here is widened, which will shortly be done, when it may be found desirable to alter the positions of some of the electric lamps, I cannot recommend that any additional lamps be provided at this place. The total num- ber of additional lamps, I suggest should be fixed in Queen's Road East, is therefore 6, the initial cost of which would be $300.00 and the annual cost of lighting $198.000.

478

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

I here take the opportunity of correcting in red the Annual cost of lighting the additional lamps suggested in my two previous reports the figures previously given were the monthly cost in each case,

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

H. P. TOOKER,

Acting Assistant Director of Public Works.

The Honourable J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, C.M.G.,

Colonial Secretary.

Appendix No. 13.

PUBLIC WORKs Office, HONGKONG, 11th January, 1902.

Sir, I have the honour to submit the following report upon the gas lighting of Kowloon for the information of the Public Works Commission.

Kowloon was first lighted with gas in 1892 when lamps were fixed in the Public streets of Tsim Sha Tsui and Yaumati and subsequently in Hung Hom and Mongkok.

The total number of Public Street lamps in Kowloon at present is 167. The dis- tricts of Hung Hom, Yaumati and Mongkok have largely developed of late years. Land has been sold, houses built and streets laid out, so that while the older portions of Kowloon are sufficiently lighted at present the districts just mentioned require some further consideration in this respect. After careful inspection on the ground I think it would be desirable to erect 8 more lamps in Hung Hom, 17 in Yaumati and 18 in Mongkok, the cost of which would be as follows:-

43 lamps at $50

Annual cost of lighting..

$2,150.00

1,393.20

I attach a plan A showing proposed positions of lamps.

I have the honour to be,

SIR,-I herewith beg for permission to offer an explanation re the papers I put be- fore the Commission on Friday last. In reading Mr. Tooker's minute:"Please inspect these inflammable structures," I was quite under the impression, (and always have been) that piles of empty baskets, planks, and old boxes on roofs came under the head- ing of inflammable structures.

As I misconstrued the meaning of above minute, I hope an humble apology will be -accepted from me.

I beg to remain,

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT, HONGKONG, 13th January 1902.

Proposed Law Courts.

 SIR,-With reference to the two questions that were raised on the 20th December last, when I was examined before the Public Works Commission, I have the honour to report as follows:-

1. The Choice of Architects.

 With regard to the question raised by one of the inembers, I beg to refer to Mr. CHAMBERLAIN'S Despatch No. 132 of the 16th June, 1896, (see Sessional Papers for 1896 No. 31/96, page 487), which was published and in which he states the objections to local architects being employed, and that, in his opinion, it will be desirable to employ the Con- sulting Architects, Messrs. WEBB & BELL, who designed the Birmingham Law Courts and other notable buildings and who also have considerable experience in making designs for buildings in the Tropics.

2. Deviations from Original Sketches.

 The original sketches were received on the 29th October, 1898, the Secretary of State in forwarding these sketches stated as follows:-

 "The Architects have prepared these sketches with a view to ascertaining that the arrangements of the buildings are generally suited to local requirements, before the expense of detailed designs is incurred," and Mr. ORMSBY reported on the 16th November, 1898, that the sketches had been laid before the Chief Justice, Mr. Justice WISE, the Acting Attorney General, the Crown Solicitor and the Registrar, and were generally approved, a few alterations being suggested. The alterations suggested and which have been adopted are as follows:-

"The Judges do not require a special room for their clerks.

  The Chief Justice prefers that his private room should adjoin that of the Puisne "Judge.

"The Jury Room and Robing Room should be transposed.

"Accommodation on ground floor (one room) should be provided for Custodian.

 "A special entrance for the clerical staff as suggested by the architects is considered. "advisable.

"The Store Room should be on the ground floor.

"Additional room for records.

"A Lift to be provided; and

"Hoods should be provided to all windows on the West."

 The late Mr. FRANCIS was the only person who raised any objections to which the Director of Public Works replied.

"

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The Sketch Plans were duly transmitted to the Colonial Office and Contract Draw- ings prepared at home were forwarded to the Hongkong Government. These drawings were considered by His Excellency the Governor Sir HENRY A. BLAKE, and were laid before the Legislative Council on the 23rd November, 1899, (Hansard see Extract at- tached, page 30), by the Director of Public Works, Mr. ORMSBY.

Subsequently Mr. ORMSBY suggested, that the plan should be modified so as to make the principal entrance face West instead of East.

A Committee consisting of the Acting Chief Justice (Mr. GOODMAN), the Puisne Judge, (Mr. WISE), the Acting Attorney General (Mr. POLLOCK), the Acting Land Officer and Registrar (Mr. SETH), the Crown Solicitor (Mr. BOWLEY) and the Director of Public Works, (Mr. ORMSBY) was appointed to consider the suggestion which it adopted.

I have the honour to be,

The Plans of the New Law Courts.

  "The Director of Public Works :-By Your Excellency's direction I beg to lay on the table the plans of the proposed New Law Courts. The architects require some further information before completing certain architectural details, which information will be forwarded in due course. The general arrangement of the courts was approved by the Chief Justice and the other officials concerned some time ago, to whom the original sketches were, at Your Excellency's suggestion, submitted. Certain alterations and improvements were suggested by the officials who have to occupy the buildings, and these have all been attended to, I think, in a satisfactory manner by the architect. The ground plan has been approved, and consequently there is no reason why there should be any delay in proceeding with the foundations, which, I think, can be com- menced early in the coming year."

484

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

Appendix No. 18.

HONGKONG, 16th January, 1902.

DEAR SIR,-With reference to the question whether the Public Works Department Staff is overworked or not, I should say not..

No doubt they do as much work as can reasonably be required of them, and if they got through all the work required of the Department, they would be, to a certain extent, overworked, but the works they are unable to do without being overworked are left until there is time to do them.

In many

of the branches I consider the supply equal to the demand, as, for ins- tance, the Praya Reclamation.

The following is my idea of the Staff necessary to carry out the works set forth in the Estimates for 1902, and any small additional works that may be required :-

1. The Director of Public Works.

2. Praya and all other reclamation works, except in the New Territory, 2 Executive Engineers.

3. Waterworks, except New Kowloon Waterworks, one Executive and one Assistant Engineer.

4. New Government buildings, including the New Territory, one Executive and two Assistant Engineers.

5. Building Ordinances, (private buildings) one Executive Engineer and two *. Building Inspectors.

6. New Roads and Bridges, one Assistant Engineer, and one Surveyor (Indian).

7. Maintenance of existing roads and buildings, one Assistant Engineer.

8. Crown Lands, one Superintendent, (Assistant Engineer) and one European Land Surveyor.

I should think an Assistant Engineer, one European and one Indian Land Surveyor and a Building Inspector in addition to the present staff, would be sufficient.

It must be borne in mind that the work for 1902 is exceptional, but on the other hand it would be as well to provide for future works. The staff of the P. W. D. should be in proportion to the size of the city and towns of the Colony.

I should point out that I have not included the Survey of the New Territory in my estimate, as I understand this is being done by a special staff, and, with reference to surveys, I think there should be a survey of the city and suburbs of Victoria, and a He permanent Surveyor to keep pace with the alterations continually being made. should have a record of all new buildings, &c., and as soon as they are completed, plot them on a plan of the city.

HONOURABLE. DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS,

Since 24th June, 1895, we have lost two clerks from the book-keeping and account office (viz., Messrs. Chan Fan and Chan Kam To) and Mr. Leung Lau Fan's departure will make the third.

During his twelve months' connection with the Department, he has been receiving instructions in work much of which, as far as I can learn, is suitable for this Office only, and cannot be applied generally in another.

He has no sooner arrived at a really useful stage than he is to depart. His and similar departures involve a re-arrangement of the work which is for a time weakening, besides working discontent amongst others, giving them an idea that this office is only a convenient way to something better.

So far as this office is concerned, and I believe the Government, the time given to instructing these men has been practically thrown away, as in any other Department, there is little chance of their being able to apply what they have been taught here.

For the sake of the officers themselves it would be unfair to prevent their transfer, but looking at the case from a purely business point of view, I consider it would be to the advantage of the Government to pay these men a salary sufficient to keep them at the posts they have been specially trained to work in. In the event of Mr. Leung Lau Fan's transfer I have the honour to submit the following for your consideration.

HONOURABLE DIRECTOR PUBLIC WORKS,

Mr. Ormsby, by Public Works Office letter No. 59 of 26th January, 1898, and ac- companying Indent No. 2 of 1898, requisitioned for three hundred (300) tons of Port- land Cement. Copy of letter and indent herewith.

It would appear that when the advice arrived in the Colony it was forwarded to the Praya Reclamation where they knew nothing about it, as no record of the order was in that office.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The cement should have been ordered by and recorded in the letter book &c., of the Praya Reclamation, and not the Public Works Department, The cement arrived in the months of June and September, 1898, and was taken delivery of by the Praya Re- clamation.

This was the only consignment of Cement ordered or received by the Praya Reclamation or the Public Works Department during Mr. Ormsby's term of office in the Colony,―i.e., 19th October, 1897-12th March, 1901.

Herewith copies of letter and indent.

CHAIRMAN, PUBLIC WORKS COMMISSION,

With reference to your enquiries regarding a consignment of cement, which the Crown Agents are reported to have sent to this Department without having received any order to do so, the facts of the case are as stated in the above minute. As only one consignment of cement was ordered or received during Mr. ORMSBY's term of office, there is no room for any doubt on the subject.

Sir, I have the honour to represent that our probable requirements in Cement this year, over and above the quantity now contracted for with the Green Island Cement Company, will be about 1,200 tons. I am somewhat doubtful as to their being able to supply this, at least with cement fit for immediate use.

I therefore recommend that at least 300 tons be ordered from England through the Crown Agents and submit an indent accordingly.-I have, &c.,

Messrs. SHEWAN TOMES & Co.,

DEAR SIRS, -In reply to your letter of yesterday regarding your new offices on Praya Extension M. L. 2AB North Block, we are instructed by the Land Investment Co. to explain that we cannot commence work until we receive the approval of the Public Works Department to the plans and obtain permission for verandahs over Crown Land. The plans were sent to the Director of Public Works on January 22nd.

In the meantime a contract for the building has been entered into and all the con- structional ironwork ordered from home.

We wish to point out that for some time, but little progress will be seen as we cannot expect to get any stonework ready for about 4 months, after which the erection of building will proceed rapidly.

Yours truly,

LEIGH & ORANGE.

    The following Report of the Committee on Education was laid before the Legislative Council on he 10th instant, and is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office. Hongkong, 11th April, 1902.

J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, Colonial Secretary.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION.

PART I.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE EXISTING SYSTEM.

1. Before proceeding with their duty of pointing out the defects which exist in the Educational System of the Colony, and of making suggestions for their amend- ment, the Committee think it convenient to recall the leading features of the different schools with which they are concerned.

QUEEN'S COLLEGE,

2. Of these schools, Queen's College stands first in numbers and reputation, and will be first considere. Formerly known as the Government Central School, Queen's College was founded to give an education to Chinese boys. The course which that education was intended to pursue is indicated in the report for 1864 of the then Inspector of Schools, Mr. STEWART. He writes:-

With the present year the scheme sanctioned by the Board came into operation. The School was henceforth to be one where "those only were to be admitted who intended to study English; and. "to prevent that neglect of their own language which is so frequently "found in the case of those who enter on that study, a system of ex- "aminations was introduced, by which boys were to be admitted to "the Chinese classes for one year, on showing that they possess a "competent knowledge of certain elementary books, that is, Chinese "Classics, and on the following year were to be admitted to the "English classes by passing successfully on the work of the previous "year."

The scheme here indicated of an entrance examination in Chinese was allowed to fall into dissuetude. It may be said at once that one of the recommendations of the Committee will deal with its re-establishment.

3. Some eighteen years later, the Education Department was relieved of the control of Queen's College, and in 1882 Dr. WRIGHT, the present Headmaster, was appointed. His experience of the School extends over twenty years, and the following extract from his latest report describes the changes that have taken place during his term of office :--

"1. On the 22nd January, 1882, I first arrived in the Colony "to assume the duties of Head Master. I propose, therefore, briefly "to compare the conditions existing twenty years ago and now.

"Thus at the present time we have twice and a half as many boys "as twenty years ago; Fees seven times the amount; Total Net "Annual Expense to Government one and a half times, while the "cost of each individual scholar is nearly two-thirds of the figures "in 1882.

492

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

"3. I arrived at a time when the work at the Central School had "been publicly called in question, and my opinion, as a stranger, was "desired. At the Prize Distribution, after conducting the examina- "tion, I was able truthfully to say to Sir JonN POPE HENNESSY "that I was surprised at the success of Chinese boys in coping with "the difficulties of the English language; and I may add that this 'impression has not faded, but on the contrary has been confirmed "with increased experience. That a Chinese boy should in five years advance from the study of the Alphabet to an intelligent "acquaintance with a play of Shakespeare and a period of English History is to me little short of the miraculous ; when due allowance "is made for the novelty of the simplest ideas, which are conveyed in ́ "idioms, without parallel in his own language.

6.

6

"4. The chief points of contrast between the Examination held by "me in 1882, (which naturally is indelibly printed on my brain) and "the Examination just concluded, are as follows. The papers now "are nearly all clean and remarkably well written; whereas twenty "years ago these were the exception, the majority of papers being "dirty and almost illegible. The standard now applied is infinitely "severer; in 1882, the action of the gauge was very delicate and "sympathetic; e. g., if from a hopeless translation, you could deci- "pher that the boy had a fairly correct idea of the original, he was "allowed to pass; in Composition, three sentences grammatically correct constituted the test of a pass, irrespective of subject matter; "in Arithmetic, there was an allowance for method, which was sup- "posed to condone for a wrong digit in even a total or product; "beyond all this, a personal element was introduced into the equa- "tion in the case of delicate or weak minded boys, or of boys whose "attendances had been affected by sickness or other cause. I "objected to anything but a rigid uniform standard being applied to "all alike; and maintained that, in mathematical subjects, except for "some slight clerical error, no leniency could be shown. The "severer standard was gradually adopted, to avoid pressing too "heavily at first.

66

"5. A further proof of the increase of standard is to be found in "the larger proportion of boys examined in certain subjects. Every "boy is now examined in Reading, as against three-quarters of the school. All the Chinese are examined in Translations, whereas in "1882 twenty per cent. did not offer these subjects. More than "half the boys are now examined in English Composition, as against "less than one quarter in 1882; in Grammar 85, as compared with "46°, and in Geography 69°。 with 39%. The full significance of "the difference will be more apparent when it is understood that "781 boys were in 1902 examined in English Grammar as against "170, in 1882. On the other hand, twenty years ago, Copy Writing was accepted for more than three-quarters of the whole school as a "subject which might assist in averting failure; this concession is "now made to only one-seventh. Several subjects now forming part of the curriculum were not taught in 1881-Shakespeare, Algebra, Euclid, Mensuration, Book-keeping, Natural Science and Physio- "logy. One outcome of this general raising of the standard of "education in Queen's College has been that for the last twelve "years, through entering for the Oxford Local Examinations, our boys have, with varying success, been able to submit to a test of "their English attainments by English Examiners in England.

"6. I feel confident that this brief historical review will not be "misconstrued into an expression of satisfaction with either the progress made or the standard attained in so long a period as "twenty years. My desire is merely to place on record a statement "of the fact that some advance, however inadequate, has been made "in that time."

4. The 910 boy's present at the last examination were divided between a Prepara- tory, a Lower, and an Upper School, the numbers in each being 269, 362, and 279 respectively. About a tenth of these boys are non-Chinese of various races and nationalities, some of whom take their places with the Chinese boys in the Pre- paratory and Lower Schools, while 50 are segregated in separate classes of the Upper School. The education given to these non-Chinese boys appears to be good on the whole.

5. Referring to the Chinese students, attention is drawn to the following opinions. expressed by the Head Master in his latest report to the Governing Body

"Reading is not of a high standard though a great majority of boys pass."

Conversation is not a successful subject."

Again, referring to the General Intelligence Paper, he writes:-

The four Chinese sentences were carefully selected by me so as to be well "known to any educated Chinaman. Yung Kai Pong was the only "scholar out of 21 boys who was really acquainted with the con-

text.'

The value of the instruction given in English subjects and the Chinese Writ- ten Language is estimated in section 37.

6. A striking feature in the education at Queen's College is the number and diversity of the subjects taught. They include Algebra, Euclid, Shakespeare, Book- keeping, Mensuration, Physiology and Science.

7. As might have been expected in a Chinese day-school of its size, Queen's College does not appear to engender any spirit of esprit de corps among its boys, a state of things more easily deplored than remedied. A school newspaper has been founded, which is no doubt a step in the right direction.

DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

8. There are at present in the Colony twelve District Schools, that is, Schools maintained by the Government and under the direct control of the Inspector of Schools. It must be obvious to any one acquainted with the Colony that these schools were not established where they are in the fulfilment of any ordered scheme. The whole of the centre of the City of Victoria has no school for boys; Kowloon has no Vernacular School: insignificant hamlets-Sheko and Pokfulum-arə favoured. The explanation is, that the existing schools are a survival from a time when the education of the Colony had not yet been largely entrusted to Grant Schools.

The policy of Dr. EITEL, who was Inspector of Schools between the and 1897, was, generally speaking, to reduce the number of District Schools and to increase the number of those under the Missionary Bodies. The effects of this policy are shewn below, thus:-

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

9. The District Schools are:-

1.-Schools teaching the English Language and Western Knowledge to Chinese

Boys, hereinafter called ANGLO-CHINESE DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

The words "Western Knowledge" are used for want of a better term to express a knowle lge of history and geography, the natural sciences, and modern civilization.

These are four in number-one at Saiyingpun in the West of the City of Victoria, two in the East at Wanchai and Wong-nei-chung, and one on the Kow- loon side at Yaumati. The masters are Chinese. The instruction, which is free, does not go beyond the four lowest Standards, and approximates to that given in the Preparatory and Lower Divisions of Queen's College. The boys usually acquire a fair knowledge of Arithmetic, and have read through (and sometimes know by heart) the School Readers; they seldom can speak or understand English Col- loquial. With the exception of Wong-nei-chung, these Schools are always full, especially in the lower Standards. The majority of the scholars are sons of small shop-keepers, but about one-third belong to the labouring classes.

Most of them

before joining have attended some. Private Vernacular School, but have obtained nothing more than a very superficial knowledge of their Written Language: very few have studied in the Vernacular District Schools next described or in the Vernacular Grant Schools.

II.-Schools teaching the Chinese Written Language and Western Knowledge in the Chinese Vernacular to Chinese Children, hereinafter called

VERNACULar distrICT SCHOOLS.

Of these, six are for boys, namely, two attached to the Anglo-Chinese District Schools above described at Saiyingpun and Wanchai, and one in each of the outly- ing villages of Sheko, Pokfulum, Aplichau, and Tanglungchau.

The instruction given in these schools is free, and is very similar to that given in Private Vernacular Schools. Beginning with the Trimetrical and Thousand Character and certain other Classics, which are learned by heart, the scholars are taught first to read and then to write the characters. Subsequently they learn their meanings, first as isolated characters and afterwards in their context. Unfor- tunately they nearly all leave school before getting as far as this, that is to say, unable to read. A little Arithmetic is taught. Geography is taught in the higher classes, but not hitherto in such a way as to be of much practical use.

                                 The boys who attend this class of schools are usually sons of labourers and mechanics, and have to begin to earn a living at about ten or eleven years of age.

The shortcomings of these-schools are in the main those of the Vernacular Grant Schools described below.

There is also one Vernacular District School for Chinese girls-the Chinese. Division of the Belilios Girl School. It is conducted on precisely the same lines as the boy schools, except that the knowledge of Chinese acquired is greater : this is partly due to an able teacher, and partly because the girls spend a longer term of years at school than the boys. Chinese desirous of giving an extended education to their children would be content with the

III.-A School giving an English Education to European, Chinese and Eurasian

Girls and Infants-the BELILIOS PUBLIC SCHOOL.

In this school about a hundred girls obtain under English mistresses a very sound though not ambitious English education. In the Preparatory School young children of both sexes and many, nationalities are taught according to the latest methods. A fee of $1,50 a month, reduced under special circumstances, is charged in the Preparatory and Upper Schools alike. Special attention is paid to English. Composition, English Literature, and the Geography and the History of the British Empire.

of

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1092,

GRANT SCHOOLS.

10. Those schools, like the District Schools, have not been designed to fill a part any definite system of education, but are the results of various and disconnected efforts extending over nearly sixty years. For convenience of description they may be divided into three classes, though such a classification must not be consi- dered accurate in detail. It is at any rate more accurate than that which is given in the Grant-in-Aid Code, and which is therefore ignored throughout this Report.

11. These classes are:-

I.-Schools giving an Education in English or Portuguese to Scholars of all Nationalities, hereinafter called ENGLISH GRANT SCHOOLS.

These include most of the old establishments of the Colony. The Diocesan School and Orphanage is a boarding and day school for boys (Europeans, Chinese and Eurasians, the Chinese being in the majority) to whom a primary education in English is given. The Diocesan School for Girls, originally founded for Europeans and Eurasians, is a school of the same class, only Chinese are not admitted. St. Joseph's College is a large Roman Catholic School for boarders and day boys. The boys are mainly Portuguese, Filipinos and Chinese, and the education is very similar to that given in the Diocesan School. Besides the Diocesan, the chief Girl Schools are the Italian Convent, where a similar education is given, principally to Portuguese, Eurasians, and Chinese orphans, many of whom are boarders, and the French Convent, managed on very similar lines. There are also four schools in which an elementary education is given in the Portuguese language.

Lastly, the Church Missionary Society has a small school giving an English education to Chinese girls.

Various as they are, these schools all unite in one common principle-they are Christian schools. Non-Christian Chinese may and do attend them, but with- out affecting the distinctive religious tone. They are genuine Grant-in-Aid Schools in the sense that the Grant is not the sole source of revenue. Fees are charged or remitted at the discretion of the Managers, guided by their judginent as to whe- ther individual cases are worthy objects of charity.

11.--Schools teaching the English Language and Western Knowledge to Chinese Boys, hereinafter culled ANGLO-CHINESE GRANT SCHOOLS.

The most important of these is the Roman Catholic Cathedral School, taught by Lay Brothers with the assistance of Chinese masters.

The students are young men who have completed their Chinese education to their own satisfaction, and desire to learn English for business purposes. The school gives instruction up to the Fifth Standard.

None of the other schools go above the Fourth Standard, nor do they call for description in detail. In this connection it is noticeable that under the existing Grant-in-Aid Code no distinction is drawn between English infants learning to read, and Chinese students beginning the study of English after their Vernacular education is complete. Hence it is a common thing for a young Chinaman of eighteen or twenty, his natural gift for memorising accentuated by a prolonged education in his own language, to present as his year's work 30 pages of a reading book in monosyllables concerning Ann and her Goat.

Fees of about one dollar a month are paid in these schools. Except in the Roman Catholic Cathedral School, the instruction is left entirely to the Chinese teachers. No written Chinese is taught.

496

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

III.-Schools teaching the Chinese Written Language and Western Know'edge in the Vernacular to Chinese Scholars, hereinafter called VERNACULAR GRANT SCHOOLS.

These schools are without exception under the management of various Mis- sionary Bodies, none of the Private Vernacular Schools of the Colony caring to accept the Grant. As in the case of the Anglo-Chinese Grant Schools, the Verna- cular Grant Schools are left, with few exceptions, so far as secular instruction is concerned, to the charge of the Chinese teachers, who do not appear as a class to be sufficiently impressed with the necessity of maintaining their schools in disci- pline, cleanliness and order; while the children, provided as they are with a free education at the hands of the Government, remain to all appearances destitute of any conception of the obligations they are under. Any hopes the Government may have entertained of winning the goodwill of the rising generation through the establishment of these schools appear altogether unrealised.

The Girl Schools stand on a somewhat different footing. The teachers have been trained in Mission boarding schools and Convents; and the influence of their training is manifest in discipline order and cleanliness, while the supervision of the Managers is more regular and effective.

The Chinese Written Language is taught in the same unsatisfactory way as in the Vernacular District Schools described above. Arithmetic is an optional subject, and the four simple rules are taught with fair success. Geography is taught (very) badly) in the Fourth Standard, where many of the Scholars were at the last examination ignorant that Hongkong was a British Colony: a number hazarded the opinion that it belonged to Russia. Most of them, as well as some of the teachers, seemed unaware that the Chinese expression meaning "red-headed as applied to Englishmen is resented by them. But this is not all the children from whom alone such knowledge was expected are a very small minority, as the following figures show. Out of 795 boys who obtained passes in the last examination, only 54 or 7 per cent. were in the higher Standards (Fourth or above). The proportion of girls was better, 146 out of 818, or 17 per cent. The percentage of boys and girls taken together was 12 per cent, and was the same for 1900 and for 1899.

man

No fees are charged in the Vernacular Grant Schools.

There have always been a large number of Private Vernacular Schools main- tained by the Chinese themselves and quite independent of Government aid. The Vernacular Grant Schools have never been able to do more than hold their own against them, as the following table shews:-

The decrease in the number of Grant Schools is also very marked, while the average number of children in each has increased from 27.5 in 1897 to 33.8 in 1901. The visible explanation of these facts is the rise in prices and rents during the last few years, leading to the disappearance of the less profitable schools and to overcrowding in the rest. As a large number of the Grant Schools are Adventure Schools, the master and not the Mission standing to gain or lose by the Grant, and as the Grant does not increase while prices and rent do, it is plain that the masters of these schools suffer more from such causes than do those of the Private Schools, where if expenses increase fees are increased proportionately. This remedy has not commended itself to the Managers of the Grant Schools where no fees are charged.

SUMMARY.

12. It is not easy to obtain a correct statement of the number of children receiving education in the Colony. The total enrolment certainly exaggerates the number. The average attendance underestimates it, but is on the whole the safer guide. The latest figures are as follows:-

PART II.

THE CLASSES OF CHILDREN REQUIRING EDUCATION.

13. In the Second Part of the Report the different classes and races of children in the Colony are reviewed, and an endeavour is made to decide how far the Government is responsible for providing them with education. Consideration is next given to the questions, how far and in what respects the education already provided for each class falls short of the provision to which it is morally entitled,

which it is expedient that it should receive.

These opinions have for convenience sake been cast into the form of Resolu- tions, which are accompanied where necessary by explanatory notes.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11Tп APRIL, 1992.

14: The Government of Hongkong may reasonably be expected to provide or assist in providing an education for four classes of children:-

First.-Children of British parentage resident in the Colony. Second. Children of Chinese parentage resident in the Colony. Third. Children of Portuguese extraction resident in the Colony. Fourth.-Children of mixed European and Chinese parentage (Eura-

sians) resident in the Colony.

The case of Parsees and other Indian British subjects, of whom there are a considerable number in the Colony, has been disregarded. Probably some settle- ment of their case will have to be made before long, such as the establishment of a small school for their use. No definite recommendations are made on this pont, which does not appear to be of instant importance.

Among the classes and races who can hardly expect the Hongkong Govern- ment to defray the cost of their English studies are French and American subjects from Annam and the Philippines

The Portuguese from Macao may seem to present a parallel case, but a distinction can be drawn. It is the duty of the Government not to abandon a large section of its subjects, while on the other hand it is quite impossible to distinguish between the Portuguese who are domiciled in Hongkong and Macao.

15. Further, in Imperial interests it is desirable to offer instruction in the English Language and Western Knowledge to all young Chinese who are willing to study them, even though they are not residents of the Colony: provided that the instruction can be furnished at a reasonable cost.

The majority of the 900 boys at Queen's College belong to this class. After having studied Chinese in their own schools on the mainland, they are attracted to the Colony by the facilities it gives for the study of English. No distinction is made between them and the sons of Chinese residents of Hongkong, and it is recom- mended that this policy remain unaltered. The additional expense to the Colony is triffing, and the gain to British interests in China by the spread of English and of friendly sentiments towards our Empire should well repay the cost.

CHILDREN OF BRITISH PARENTAGE..

16. It is essential that the children of British parentage be educated by themselves, and not side by side with children of other nationalities or races.

This opinion is mainly based on two reasons: first, because the education of the British children is retarded by the inevitably slower progress of their class- mates, to whom English is a foreign language; secondly, because they have to consort during their most impressionable years with the offspring of alien beliefs and other ethical standards.

17. There is no public school in the Colony reserved for the children of British parentage alone. It is recommended that steps be taken to remedy this state of affairs.

The principle here involved has already been approved. (See Appendix A.)

CHILDREN OF CHINESE PARENTAGE.

18 The Chinese who attend schools under Government control fall into two classes, namely, those who attend the Anglo-Chinese Schools, and those who attend the Vernacular Schools.

.:

It has already been pointed out (section 9) that the same children seldom attend first one class of these schools and then the other. The gratuitous education given in the Vernacular Schools makes them attractive chiefly to the

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

poorer classes who are unlikely to prolong their children's education; while the students who attend the Anglo-Chinese Schools, where fees are charge, have usually first acquired their Chinese education on the mainland, or in Private Schools in the Colony.

It should be the policy of the Government to influence the education of Chinese children from their early years, but little can be done whilst the Verna- cular Schools remain what they are.

ANGLO-CHINESE SCHOOLS.

19. In the Anglo-Chinese Schools instruction in the English Language is of course essential: it is to give this instruction that the schools were founded, and to obtain it that they are attended.

It is essential that Western Knowledge should be a compulsory subject in every Standard.

It is essential that the students should possess on entering a sufficient knowledge of the Chinese Written Language, which knowledge should be maintained and improved during the school course.

The Committee are fully alive to the extreme importance of spreading the English Language among the Chinese: but they maintain that the spread of Western Knowledge is no less essential. Their opinion that a knowledge of Eng- lish has not always proved sufficient in itself to ensure a feeling of goodwill towards the Empire, is supported by the authority of Lord CROMER, who writes in his Report upon Egypt for 1900, page 51 -"The Egyptians, as a rule, think that they will have a better chance of obtaining Government employment if they know English than if they are ignorant of that language. Within certain limits, they are probably right. The English on the other hand, provided they are really acquainted with Egyptian circumstances and requirements, regard the matter wholly from an educational point of view.

                   They wish to confine the study of foreign languages, whether English or French, to what is really necessary and useful to the Egyptians themselves. They are not led away by the superficial, and, in my opinion, generally erroneous view, that the study of French or English necessarily connotes the creation of French or English political proclivities." It is highly desirable that a fair exposition of our policy in the East, and of China's relations with the other Powers, should be presented to every Chinese scholar: but these ideas can be conveyed in the Chinese language no less well than in English.

The argument that Chinese should learn English to the exclusion of their own Written Language is often heard, but it will not bear serious consideration. No Chinese, however learned in English and Western Knowle lge, can hope to be of influence with his countrymen, nor can he indeed con nunicate with them, if ignorant of the written character which binds the Chinese Empire together.

Too much besides has been made of the time which must be spent on the study of the Chinese Written Language: for a Chinese to learn to write clearly and intelligibly, and to read plain prose is no such immense undertaking. And it is quite possible that existing difficulties will so ne, day be lessened after the methods which have approve themselves to the natural mentors of China-the Japanese.

20. The Anglo-Chinese Schools as at present constituted are defective in ail three essentials.

As regards English, in colloquial, composition, and intelligent reading alike, the results attained are not commensurate with the time devoted to the study.

500:

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

Western Knowledge is taught unsystematically and disjointedly, and moreover is not taught at all in the lower Standards.

}

The knowledge of the Chinese Written Language, insufficient as it is, which the students possess on entering the Anglo-Chinese Schools, is not made use of as it should be to aid them in acquiring English and Western Knowledge, nor is any attempt made to train them to utilise it as a medium of expression.

21. The following remedies are suggested:

(a.) English should be taught with a view to its practical use less attention should be paid to grammatical forms, and more to com- position:

(b.) Western Knowledge should be taught systematically in all Stand- ards, and it should be taught in Chinese until the students have acquired so good an understanding of English as to enable them easily to receive instruction in English.

Under the present Code the scholars in Anglo-Chinese Grant Schools are sup- posed to receive instruction in all subjects through the medium of English, from the lowest Standards upwards. How it could ever have been thought possible to explain arithmetic or geography in English to boys who know no English, is not clear. As a matter of fact the masters have ignored this condition systematically, throwing themselves on the reasonableness of the Inspector of Schools. In Queen's College and the Anglo-Chinese District Schools, Chinese has always been the actual medium of instruction.

It is certain that the boys' knowledge of English will not suffer by the abolition of this Formula.

(c.) Before entering these schools, students should be required to shew that they possess a useful knowledge of the Chinese Written Lan- guage.

The practical steps that should be taken to secure this are explained in sections 38A, 43, and 51.

(d.) Constant translation from English into Chinese and from Chinese into English, both oral and in writing, should be insisted upon. (e.) English masters should know Chinese, both for the purpose of teaching and also to enable them to supervise the work of the Chi- nese masters.

This knowledge need not always be very profound. If the English master were in a position to see that the Chinese master was properly carrying out his duties, an important point would be gained.

22. It is further recommended that inducements should be held out to students to prolong their studies in the Anglo-Chinese Schools, and the following expedients are suggested:-

16

}

(a.) That foundation scholarships be offered giving free education in

these schools.

(b.) That certificates should be given by the Government to students

passing a Government examination,

The principle involved in (a.) is that of the Despatch of 1854 which laid down

the lines on which education in India was to proceed. It directs that "the best pupils of the inferior schools should be provided for by means of scholarships in "schools of a higher order, so that superior talent in every class may receive that

encouragement and development which it deserves."

66

Foundation scholarships have hitherto been granted from the Anglo-Chinese District Schools into Queen's College. The principle might be extended by offering scholarships from the Vernacular Schools into any Anglo-Chinese District or Grant School at the option of the holder. Opportunities of getting to the front should be

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE; 11TH APRIL, 1902.

given to the clever and ambitious children of poor parents. With the shifting and very ignorant population of Hongkong, the most that can be done is to pick out and encourage all promising material, and so contrive things that the ablest men of the next generation shall be on our side.

 The Government examination suggested in (b.) should be designed to take the place of the Oxford Local Examination, to which schoolmasters and the public generally appear to attach somewhat too much importance. What is required in Hongkong is an examination that will test the ordinary work of a school, and not one the preparation for which entails special tuition; one suited to local educational conditions and not designed to prove the attainments of English boys educated in England.

!

VERNACULAR SCHOOLS.

23. In the Vernacular Schools instruction in the Chinese Written Language is essential.

 It is essential that Western Knowledge should be a compulsory subject in ' every Standard.

The argument which was used to defend instruction in the Chinese Written Language in the Anglo-Chinese Schools, justifies also the existence of Vernacular Schools.

In Vernacular Schools it will not be possible for the bulk of the scholars to acquire any practical acquaintance with Western Knowledge and with the Chinese Written Language, and also with English (written or spoken) as well. Very important as the study of English is, Western Knowledge is still more so; and where the two studies cannot be conducted at the same time, Western Knowledge must take precedence.

 24. The Vernacular Schools as at present constituted are defective in both essentials. Western Knowledge is arranged to begin in the fourth year of study, but nine-tenths of the scholars leave school after three years or less; consequent- ly to them it is never taught at all. As for the instruction in the Chinese Written Language, it is given too much with the object of memorising the Classics, and too little with the idea of teaching the children to read and write. Explanation of what they read is not given till the fourth year, so that again nine-tenths of the children derive no practical benefit from their study.

25. The following remedies are suggested:-

(a.) That Western Knowledge be carefully taught from the lowest class

upwards.

(b.) That the Chinese Written Language be taught on more practical

lines.

As regards (b.) two main points have to be borne in mind: the average period of study in the Vernacular Schools is three years or less, while the principal object to be attained is not the study of the ancient classical literature but to learn to read and write simple prose. It is necessary that the meaning of the characters should be taught from the outset, and that the commoner characters should be selected and taught first. If this were done, a child whose education was cut short after two or three years would have learnt little, but that little would be of use, not resembling as at present a cypher without a key.

There is no reason why this practical instruction should not be based on the Confucian and Mencian Classics, while to banish these would be an unnecessary challenge to the fundamental principles of Chinese social life.

2.

502

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

26. It is further recommended that inducements be held out to children to prolong their studies in the Vernacular Schools, and the following expedients are suggested:---

(a.) To permit the teaching of English as a special subject in the higher

Standards.

(b.) To offer scholarships from the higher Standards of the Vernacular

Schools into the Anglo-Chinese Schools.

The principle that underlies these recommendations is to use the eagerness of the Chinese to learn English, as an inducement to them to submit themselves longer to educational influences. The instruction in English given to the highest Standards of the Vernacular Schools will, it is hopel, benefit children who cannot afford to continue their education in the Anglo-Chinese Schools.

CHILDREN OF PORTUGUESE EXTRACTION.

27. There are two classes of schools in the Colony, both under Roman Catholic management, which provide an education mainly intended for the Portuguese, namely, (a.) those in which English, and (b.) those in which Portuguese is the medium of instruction.

The first class includes St. Joseph's, where Portuguese scholars predominate, though there is a tendency to admit too many Chinese: the latter not only fail to get the education best suited to their needs (as describe l above) but also keep back their European class-mates, by reason of the greater dificulties which a Euro- pean language and European ideas present to them. Neither should Annamese and Filipinos be allowed to predominate in a school primarily intended for the children of Hongkong.

PORTUGUESE VERNACULAR SCHOOLS.

28. It is unnecessary for the Government to foster the study of the Portu- guese language, and it is recommended that the support given to these schools be withdrawn.

There are four of these schools. At the last examination 75 children (mostly girls) were presented, nearly all of whom were in the lower Standards. Many scholars make use of these schools merely as preparatory schools, completing their education in the English Schools, where they are hampered by their ignorance of English and forget, for want of practice, the Portuguese they have acquired.

CHILDREN OF MIXED PARENTAGE (EURASIANS).

29. The existing English and Anglo-Chinese Schools are suficient to meet the needs of Eurasians; who can as heretofore choose which class of school they prefer to attend.

Queen's College is open to all Eurasian boys, and will continue open to those who elect to be educated as Chinese. The Diocesan School and Orphanage is largely attended by Eurasians: so also is St. Joseph's. The Belilios Public School and the Diocesan School for Girls were founded for the special benefit of Eurasian girls.

FEMALE EDUCATION.

30. The education of girls in the Colony should follow the lines indicated for boys as a general rule.

GIRLS OF BRITISH PARENTAGE..

31. The education of girls of British parentage is as defective as their brothers and for the same reasons.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

GIRLS OF CHINESE PARENTAGE.

ANGLO-CHINESE GIRL SCHOOLS.

32. There is no present need for the creation of Anglo-Chinese Schools for girls. The High School for Girls will satisfy any existing demand for a more advanced education in English. (Sections 63-65 and Appendix A.)

It must not be forgotten that the large attendance at Queen's College and the other Anglo Chinese Boy Schools is due to a desire to acquire English for business purposes. This stimulus is absent in the case of girls.

VERNACULAR GIRL SCHOOLS.

33. They should be conducted on the same general lines as the Vernacular Schools for boys. At the same time it is a matter of some delicacy to impose stringent conditions upon the education of girls whose parents regard that education as somewhat of an extravagance, and who might be easily inclined to withdraw their daughters from school. The following passage from a recent Report by the Inspector of Schools commends itself to the judgment of the Committee :-

"To find themselves amenable to education must be an invalu- "able lesson to the Chinese girls and a wholesome one to their "parents and brothers, so that whether that which they learn is worth "learning or not, it is a distinct advantage that they and their "men-folk are alike convinced of their capacity for intellectual "exercise. The self-approbation of your male Chinese requires no "such stimulus."

The time is ripe to put increased pressure on the schoolboys; but in the case of the schoolgirls it can hardly be said to be so.

                     It is therefore necessary for the time being to make distinctions in the treatment of the two classes of children.

PORTUGUESE AND EURASIAN GIRLS.

34. These classes are provided for by the Roman Catholic Convents on the one hand, and the Diocesan School for Girls and the Belilios Public School on the other. The last-named is attended by a considerable number of Chinese, but the restriction upon the admission of Chinese, which is recommended in English Boy Schools, is at present unnecessary.

PART III.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF EXISTING SCHOOLS.

35. In the First Part of the Report a description has been given of the various systems of schools under Government control, and incidentally some of their weak points have been exposed. In the Second Part the different classes of children in the Colony have been enumerated; enquiry has been made how far their wants are at present supplied; and the general lines have been indicated on which further improvements should be effected.

In the Third Part the existing schools are considered in detail in the light the principles determined in Part II; and where they are found wanting, definite

suggestions are made to remedy their shortcomings.

QUEEN'S COLLEGE.

36. It is recommended that Queen's College revert to the purpose for which it was originally intended, and supply an education to Chinese only.

...

:

504

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The only scholars on whom the exclusion of non-Chinese might inflict a hardship are the Indians. Until therefore provision for them has been made as contemplated in section 14, this recommendation can hardly be carried out : meantime the school, numbering nearly 1,000 boys and combining the functions. of an English and of an Anglo-Chinese School, is attempting more than it can perform.

The abolition of the non-Chinese Classes can be effected at once, and will not inflict any serious hardship on the scholars, a large proportion of whom know Chinese. Until they reached the Upper School these boys received their education side by side with Chinese boys, and it is fairer that they should continue to do so while they remain in the school, than that they should monopolize the services of two English masters as they do at present.

The following criticisms and recommendations apply to the Chinese classes only.

37. As in the other Anglo-Chinese Schools, the knowledge of English acquired at Queen's College does not appear satisfactory, considering the time spent upon it; Western Knowledge seems taught without sufficient regard to the local point of view; and the knowledge of the Chinese Written Language possessed by the scholars is very imperfect..

To verify these conclusions the Committee made use of the following tests. An examination was held of the twenty top boys, who were required, (a) to translate about 150 words of simple English narrative into Chinese, (b.) to write an essay in English of about 250 words, (c.) to translate about 250 words of sim- ple Chinese narrative into English. No great accuracy in translation was expect- ed; and in the essay the matter was regarded as of no importance, so long as it was germane to the subject. Out of the twenty boys only two could be classed as good, while two others did fairly. The rest were bad, and the work done by many of them was quite worthless.

It is not probable that even these results could be equalled by Chinese schoolboys elsewhere in the Colony. The Committee feel it is their duty to put these significant facts plainly before the Government.

As regards Western Knowledge too much time is spent over the acquisition of dry facts relating to early and mediaeval English History, and to the geography of countries which are only remotely connected with the Far East. Nor is it made sufficiently clear that the past and present condition of other countries have had and still exercise an important influence on the Chinese life of to-day.

38. As regards the teaching of the Chinese Written Language the follow- ing more detailed recommendations are submitted:

(A.) That an entrance examination be held each term, the test for admission being ability to write an ordinary narrative intel- ligently, and to read and understand the news column of a Chinese newspaper.

The time spent by the average Chinese boy prior to his admission into Queen's College should, if directed to more practical purpose, enable him easily to pass the test examination. The desire to enter Queen's College is so strong and the deinand for admission so great, that the proposed examination may reasonably be expected to influence the course of study in the Private Schools of the Colony and on the Mainland.

(B.) That translation from English into Chinese and vice versa be

seriously studied under competent teachers in all the classes.

In order that this may be done to any good purpose it will be necessary to engage Chinese Composition Masters, the present Chinese masters being as a class incompetent to teach their written language. This division of duties is

i

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

a temporary necessity. Good Chinese scholars who know no English are plenti- ful. Chinese who combine a competent knowle lge of English and their own language are hardly to be found.

39. As regards the organisation of the school the following recommendations are submitted:-

(A.) The duties of the Staff should be so re-arranged, that every Division of every Class may receive instruction in English from an English master for not less than one and a half hours a day.

The assumption that Chinese masters of the quality at present obtainable are competent to teach the beginnings of English is unwarranted, and results in stock mispronunciations and mistakes of idiom being handed down from generation to generation. The Preparatory and Lower Schools are at present taught English almost entirely by Chinese masters, some of whom are pupil teachers from the up- per Classes.

(B.) The English masters should each be in charge of a Class: the Divisions of Classes should be each under a Chinese master subordinate to the English Class Master.

No Class Master should be in charge of more than three Divisions, and no Division should contain more than fifty scholars reckoning by the

average attendance.

Thus every unit of fifty scholars would receive not less than one and a half hours' instruction daily from an Englishman, and would for the rest of the school time be under a Chinese Division Master subordinate to the English Class Master.

(C.) The salaries of the Chinese Staff are inadequate and should be increased.

The present scale of pay gives $1,138 a year to the First Assistant Master; $898 to the Second Assistant Master; and so in a descending scale to the Tenth, who receives $328. These rates are not sufficient to attract suitable men even with the present modest requirements, much less masters capable of teaching translation from and into Chinese.

If at any future time it shall become possible to find Chinese masters compe- tent to teach the Chinese Written Language and English Subjects without the assistance and supervision of an English Class Master, large reductions in the cost of the Staff will become possible. Such masters would be well worth the salaries now given to First Class Translators in the Colony, viz., $1,500 to $2,400 a year. Meanwhile the rate of pay of the Division Masters should be increased to the standard which experience has shown to be necessary in other Government Departments.

(D.) Pupil Teachers should be organized under a practical system. They

should receive instruction from a qualified Normal Master.

6.

:

The present pupil teachers" are pupil teachers in name only. They should be bound for a term of years, and receive instruction daily, out of school hours, both in general subjects an in the science of teaching.

(E.) Subjects like Algebra, Euclid, the more advanced parts of Arithmetic, Menguration, and Book-keeping, which are taught more as a mental exercise than for practical purposes, should not be taught to boys who have not attained to a thorough knowledge of English. Western Know- ledge on the other hand should be taught from the lowest Class upwards.

Theoretically no doubt, and if properly taught, these subjects are an excellent mental training: but as a matter of fact Chinese boys, with their strong bias towards memorising, learn these subjects by rote or by formula more often than otherwise.

505

506

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

When English is once thoroughly mastered, there is access to the whole of the culture of Europe, and no need for mental gymnastics.

(F.) Promotion from Class to Class should be slower, more regular, and depen- dent on no considerations other than the ability of the students promoted.

In Queen's College the numbers in attendance fluctuate largely; and there is an unfortunate tendency to fill up the gaps thus caused in the higher Classes by making promotions solely or chiefly to this end.

If through natural causes the numbers in the higher classes become reduced, it is better that they should remain so, and that the revenue of the school should fall, than that boys should be pressed forward before the natural time of their promotion.

DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

40. The Anglo-Chinese District Schools which should be conducted generally ou the lines prescribed in Part II, may be expected to relieve the overcrowding at Queen's College, as well as to provide a somewhat less advanced education at a

lower cost.

41. The Vernacular District Schools have for long been treated as if there were no natural connection between them and the Anglo-Chinese Schools, even when the two were held under the same roof. In view of this, the following recommendation is made:-

Vernacular District Schools should be established in connection with Anglo-Chinese District Schools, and linked to them; and opportunities should be given by scholarships or otherwise, enabling the more intelligent of the boys after passing through the Vernacular Schools to continue their education in the Anglo-Chinese Schools attached.

One advantage to be gained by linking these classes of schools is, that so it will be possible to employ Chinese Composition Masters to teach the Chinese Language in both their presumable lack of Western, Knowledge will matter little, as instruction in that branch can be given in both schools by the English-teaching Chinese masters. Another advantage of the "linked system" is that continuity of education is as-

sured,

42. The salaries of the English-teaching Chinese masters are inadequate. They should be made equal to those proposed for the Chinese masters at Queen's College.

43. Boys desirous of entering the Anglo-Chinese Schools from Private Schools must pass the Examination laid down in section 38 A.

Boys who have previously passed the Fifth Standard at a Vernacular District or Grant School might be excused this entrance examination.

44. English masters should be engaged to give instruction in English and Western Knowledge in the Anglo-Chinese Schools; it should also be their duty to supervise the work of the Chinese masters.

Great importance is attached to this recommendation. It is at present impos- sible to find the required number of Chinese masters capable of teaching Western Knowledge or English, or even translation to and from Chinese, in a satisfactory manner without constant supervision.

The proportion between the numbers of masters (both English and Chinese) and scholars should be those recommended for the Anglo-Chinese Grant Schools. below.

GRANT SCHOOLS.

45. Assistance under the Code is at present refused to Private Schools, i.e., schools where admission is restricted, and to schools which are carried on with a view to private emolument-Adventure Schools.

j

1

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The propriety of aiding schools where the admission is restricted was recognized by the Government, when it consented to establish the British School and to assist the Chinese High School (See Appendix A),

The ruling against Adventure Schools, such as many of the Vernacular Schools are, has in practice never been enforced, and there appears to be no reason why it should be, so long as they are efficient and meet a real want.

It is therefore recommended that Private Schools and Adventure Schools shall not as such be excluded from the benefits of the Code.

46. Grants should be made to three classes of schools:-

1. English Schools, giving an education to Europeans and other non-

Chinese ;

2. Anglo-Chinese Schools;

3. Vernacular Schools.

Under the present Code the first two classes are amalgamated, with unfortunate results. The principle that European children should not be hampered by Chinese class-mates was laid down in Part II, when the needs of British and Portuguese children were considered. The existing Grant Schools where English is taught will have to elect whether they will become English Grant Schools or Anglo- Chinese Grant Schools. As a matter of fact, all the existing schools fall naturally into one or other category, except the Diocesan Boy School, where in 1900 there were 80 Europeans and Eurasians and 106 Chinese. Two courses remain open to this school, to refuse admittance to one or other class of boys, or to form an English side and an Anglo-Chinese side, each properly equipped.

A somewhat meaningless division is made of the Vernacular Schools into schools in which a "Chinese education" or a "European education " is given in

                                     "is the Chinese language. This classification is ignored throughout the Report.

ENGLISH, GRANT SCHOOLS.

47. The following suggestions are made for their improvement:-

ސ

(1.) The proportion of teachers to scholars should not be less than

one to forty, reckoning by the average attendance.

(2.) The proportion of Chinese scholars to non-Chinese should not

exceed ten per cent. reckoning by the average attendance. (3.) The great importance of physical training should be recognized. 48. The maximum Grant obtainable should be $18 for each scholar, reckon- ing by the average attendance.

The Grant earned last year in this class of schools amounted on an average to $8.22, reckoning by the average attendance. The present Grant was fixed at a time when the gold value of the dollar was far higher than it is at present, and its purchasing power far greater; and the Committee feel that it is hopeless to expect Managers to incur further expenditure, by engaging more teachers and generally by improving the efficiency of their schools, on the present inadequate remuneration.

It is intended that the Grant of $18 shall include all separate Grants, and that it shall be possible only for schools of the highest efficiency to earn it.

ŠLAPANGANGANGBO CHINESE GRANT SCHOOLS.

49. The services of an English master should be secured for every Anglo- Chinese School in the following manner:-

No school should be considered efficient unless instruction is given anu supervision exercised by a qualified English master for one and a half hours daily for ever

every f

fifty boys in average attendance. The English master should speak and read Chinese:

507

508

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The results obtained by these schools as a class have been hitherto so unsatis- factory because of the want of English masters. The English Language and Western Knowledge cannot be taught satisfactorily here any more than in Queen's College or the District Schools by Chinese alone.

Under the system proposed a school of 150 boys or two schools of 70 or 80 He should himself boys each would fully occupy the time of one English master. teach English, and should superintend and direct the instruction given by the Chinese

masters.

Under present conditions, it is not practicable to insist upon the English masters knowing Chinese. But the Committee recommend that no school where the requisite number of masters are without this knowledge should be considered as qualified to earn the maximum Grant.

It has been represented to the Committee that if this policy is carried out, it will lead to the withdrawal of some of the existing Anglo-Chinese Grant Schools from their connection with the Government. Though it is highly desirable that all these. schools should conform to the suggestions above indicated and increase their efficiency, still it is better that they should withdraw, than that they should continue inefficient and at the same time be in receipt of a Grant. o far as these schools are Prepara- tory Schools, attended by boys who are anxious to obtain a good knowledge of Eng- lish, the Committee are emphatically of the opinion that supervision by English masters is necessary.

But, as a matter of fact, these schools principally serve the purposes of boys who wish to learn just enough English to fit them to be servants or shopmen; and in so far as they are doing useful work which cannot conveniently be carried on by other existing institutions in the Colony, they deserve Government assistance. This assistance they should continue to receive in the mean time, but not on such a scale as will enable them to enter into unfair competition with ethicient private schools, or to induce boys by the offer of tuition at nominal fees to waste their time by learning a smattering of English, which will be of no use to them in after life.

To meet this state of affairs the following recommendations are made :--

(i.) A limited number of Elementary Anglo-Chinese Schools under Chinese

teachers should be assisted by the Government.

(i.) A Grant of $6 for every scholar in average attendance should be

given them.

iii.) No Grant shonld be given for tuition above the Third Standard. (iv.) There is no need at present of any increase in the amount of money set apart for this class of school; and as soon as the number of English Classes in the Vernacular Schools (see section 26) is sufficient, and. the success of that experiment assured, il is recommended that the Government show'd then consider the advisability of withdrawing the Grant altogether from these Elementary Anglo-Chinese Schools.

50. Besides the English master, Chinese masters should be engaged in not less a proportion than one to every fifty boys in average attendance.

51. Boys desirous of entering these schools from Private Schools must pass the examination laid down in Section 38A.

Boys who have previously passed the Fifth Standard at a Vernacular District or Grant School might be excused this entrance examination.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

52. The maximum Grant obtainable should be $18 for every scholar, reckoning by the average attendance.

The Grant earned last year in these schools amounted on an average to $6.48, reckoning by the average attendance.

Of the existing schools none have higher Standards than the Fourth, with the exception of the Roman Catho ic Cathedral School which takes scholars up to the Fifth. In fixing the Grant it is assumed that it will be paid in full only to schools where a fair proportion of boys are in the highest Standards. The increased expen- diture caused by the engagement of English inasters and of better qualified Chinese masters fully justifies the proposed increase in the Grant.

VERNACULAR GRANT SCHOOLS.

53. The Vernacular Grant Schools for Boys are not at all in a satisfactory condition; nor is any very material improvement likely to take place, until more thorough supervision can be given them by the Managers. It is not, however, proposed to disestablish them: they should be retained as a framework on which to build an improved system. All that can profitably be attempted for the present is to weed out some of the less competent masters.

the

54. The maximum Grant obtainable should be $7 for each scholar, reckoning by average attendance.

This is the same Grant as can be earned under the present Code by a school in which a fair proportion of the children are in the upper Standards. No increase is needed, since the additional revenue gained by charging appropriate fees will, it is hoped, be sufficient to attract a superior class of master. (See Part V, Fees.)

GRANTS IN AID OF RENT.

55. A Grant equal to two-thirds of the rent paid should be made to schools occupying leased premises.

The present Grant in aid of rent is 30 % of the rent of the school quarters. It was authorised only two years ago and has been of service, but has proved inadequate to redress the disadvantage incident to schools in densely populated districts.

BUILDING GRANTS.

56. The instability of Grant Schools, especially the Vernacular Schools, arises from their being too often housed in premises leased from month to month. No increase in the Grant in aid of rent will remedy this state of affairs. But Managers have no encouragement to erect permanent school-buildings unless they can feel assured of liberal assistance from the Government. The provisions of the Code (Appendix B. Section 27) governing Building Grants appear to be satisfac- tory, but the sum now voted for this purpose ( $3,000 for three years) is insufficient.

THE CODE.

57. It is not the purpose of the Committee to draw up a new Code, but only to indicate what its general character should be.

The existing Code which will be found in Appendix B is based on the first local Code of 1872, and is now out of date. Its principal shortcomings are enu- merated below, the references being to the sections of the Code.

 Section 1a and b-As stated above, these restrictions, that schools shall be public and not carried on with a view to private emolument, are unnecessary.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902

Section 2c.-In view of the greater efficiency now required from masters more especially from those of Anglo-Chinese and Vernacular Schools, great care should be taken by the Education Department that none but fully qualified meu obtain appointments.

Section 3.-It will be more convenient to adopt an opposite principle, and instead of making a reduction from the maximum Grant the exception, to limit the maxi- mum Grant to cases of exceptional efficiency.

Section 8.-The payment of a portion of a Grant directly to the teacher should be discontinued.

Sections 10 & 11.-The system of payment by the result of an individual examin- ation of each scholar should be discontinued. It is recommended that the system in vogue at Home be introduced, and that the Grant shall not directly depend on the

success or failure of any individual scholar.

One effect of the present system is to strengthen the hands of the parents and weaken those of the teachers. This is especially true of the Chinese Adventure Schools. The teacher is in the unpleasant position of having his year's remuneration dependent on the good-will of the scholars, whether they choose or do not choose to present themselves on the day of examination.

Another effect of the system is that the best Grant is earned by the Master who having brought his best pupils up to the passing point leaves them there, and devotes himself exclusively to the stupid and backward. He has no inducement to teach more than the minimum imposed by the Code.

But it should be made impossible for a school to obtain a full year's Grant for a scholar who has entered within four or five months of the end of the year, as happens frequently under the present system.

Section 16. The course of instruction for Vernacular Schools requires com- plete revision. The following points are important:---

(a.) Mental Arithmetic and the Multiplication Table should be taught. (b.) The explanation of Chinese characters should keep pace with the

reading of them.

(c.) The History first taught should be that of China, viewed in its

relation to other countries. The Geography should be political and commercial rather than physical.

(d.) The only special subjects taught should be (1.) English in the Sixth and Seventh Standards, and (2.) Needlework in the Girl Schools as at present.

Section 18.-In the Anglo-Chinese Schools, it will probably be found possible to teach Algebra (or Euclid) and Physical Geography (or Elementary Natural Philosophy), but in the two highest Standards only. They should form part of the ordinary course.

It is impossible to formulate one course of study for English Schools and Anglo-Chinese Schools alike. In the case of the English Schools advantage should be taken of the latest experience gained at Home thing, no fol.

PART IV.

ADDITIONS NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.

58. In the preceding Parts of the Report the existing educational institutions. have been described (Part I); the needs of the children of the Colony have been enumerated (Part II); and improvements have been suggested, with the purpose of adapting these educational institutions to these needs (Part III).

The present system of education however is in want, not of amendment merely, but of enlargement as well. In the Colony, the British population has hitherto had no distinct part in the system of education, such as its numerical and intrinsic importance entitles it to. There is a very decided demand among the Chinese for a better education than can be obtained at present.

A third direction

in which the educational system requires extension is among the inhabitants of the New Territory.

BRITISH SCHOOLS.

59. A recognition has already been made of the desirability of taking steps to prevent the children of British parents born in the Colony from growing up un- educated, or at best educated in undesirable surroundings. Correspondence on the subject is given in Appendix A.

It is not desirable to lay down hard and fast rules for the conduct of the British Schools until experience has been gained in working them. But the following suggestions are made.

60. One school should be established in Victoria and one at Kowloon.

In the City of Victoria, the central position of the Belilios Reformatory with regard to the Naval Yard, the East Point Sugar Refineries and Quarry Bay indi- cates the building as very suitable for the British School, if it can be adapted to this purpose. It is true that children from West Point will have a long distance to go, but this is inevitable for some scholars wherever the school is placed. The proposed el ctric tramway will minimise this inconvenience, which arises from the straggling nature of the City.

It has already been decided by the Government to limit the attendance at the Kowloon British School to children of British parentage. In this way the Kow- loon population is well provided for.

61. A boarding house should if possible be established in connection with the Victoria British School.

This provision will enable a number of parents to make use of the school who

· otherwise woull have to seek another home for their children. It is likely that it will encourage the Residents of Canton and other Treaty Ports to send their children to Hongkong for their education.

62. All boys of sufficient age should be required to join a Cadet Corps, if the Military Authorities can arrange to form one.

A HIGH SCHOOL FOR CHINESE.

63. General sanction has been obtained for the formation of such a school in the correspondence given in Appen lix A. But hitherto no décision has been arrived at among the leading Chinese as to the precise form which it should take.

The following points appear essential, if the school is to be of such a nature as to merit a place among the schools controlled by Government.

64. The school should be open to all Chinese of respectable antecedents and connections.

65. The fees should be fixed on a high scale.

511

512

:

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

-

This provision is essential in order that the cost of the Staff and other charges should, in so far as it exceeds that of the other Anglo-Chinese Schools, fall on the. scholars and not on the ratepayers.

THE NEW TERRITORY.

66. In considering what education should be provided for the New Territory, due regard must be paid to its financial position, which is that of a debtor to the Colony, with no immediate prospect of freedom from the obligation. The lack of good communications in this barren and mountainous country must also be taken into consideration, as well as the poverty of its inhabitants.

Despite all drawbacks, over 4,000 out of a total of 17,500 male children under 16 years of age are in attendance at Private Schools, of which there are over two hundred, and pay fees averaging 20 cents to 30 cents a month. This spontaneous desire for education deserves all possible encouragement.

67. A scheme has elsewhere been formulated for assisting the present schools. with a Grant: but it appears probable that this expedient would result, not in raising the pay of the teachers and in due course their qualifications as well, but in a reduction of the school-fees; and would thus tend to discourage a praiseworthy self-reliance, without benefiting education. Further, it is certain that any direct attempt to induce the present teachers to adopt new methods would be futile, and might give rise to unfortunate misunderstandings. On the other hand any hasty attempt to supplant private schools by Government schools would be sure to rouse the hostility of the teachers, who would be thrown out of employment, and would no doubt use all their influence to thwart the change; and for this reason and owing to the nee l for economy, a quiet and unobtrusive beginning is required.

68. To improve Vernacular Education the Government must rely chiefly on indirect means, making use of the undoubted desire that exists to learn English. A few Anglo-Chinese Schools should be opened in the most populous centres; and Vernacular Schools, in which a good education should be given by competent and progressive teachers, should be linked to them. Fees should be charged at least equal to those that are usual in the neighborhood. Admission to the Anglo- Chinese Schools should be granted only to boys who have passed an examination in Chinese. At first the examination should only test the proficiency of the boys' studies according to the old-fashioned methods of teaching Chinese, but gradually its scope can be enlarged until it becomes a real test of the candidate's ability to read and write his language. Anxiety on the part of their pupils to obtain admission to the Anglo-Chinese Schools will necessarily compel teachers of Private Vernacular Schools to modify their system of instruction so as to accord with the requirements of the entrance examinations. The Government Vernacular Schools will no doubt be well attended for the same reason, and they will act as model schools for the neighbourhood. If the experiment is successful, Government Vernacular Schools may be opened in the principal market-towns; but at its fullest development it is not probable that more than three Anglo-Chinese Schools and twelve Vernacular Schools will be required.

To commence with, it will suffice to open Anglo-Chinese Schools at Jen Long and Sheung Shui, and to attach Vernacular Schools to them.

No unnecessary expense should incurred on them until their success is assure 1; in the first instance school-houses should be rented not built, and the staff should be limited to one master to each school.

FEMALE EDUcation.

69. The time has not come for assisting female education in the New Territory.

PART V. SUEC

FINANCE.

70. In considering the cost to Government of the various changes which have been recommended in the course of this Report, it will be necessary to calculate such expenditure only as must immediately follow the adoption of the new policy. Whether, and if so when, that policy should receive its fullest development, are questions which the future must decide.

QUEEN'S COLLEGE.

71. The following table has been used as a basis from which the cost of carrying out the recommendations contained in sections 36-39 has been estimated. Reckon- ing the average attendance at 950 scholars, the Staff needed is :-

For 450 scholars in the Preparatory School 3 English and 9 Chinese masters

72. In addition, allowance must be made for one English Master being constantly on leave, and for the supervisory duties vested in the Headmaster. Two additional English masters will be needed for these reasons, making a total of eleven-the number for which provision is made in the Estimates for the current year.

73. As against 19 Chinese masters required, provision is made in the 1902 Esti- mates for 11, together with 5 pupil teachers. Thus an increase of 3 in the Chinese Teaching Staff must be made.

74. The present Staff of Chinese masters is underpaid (see section 39 C), and it is found impossible to retain the services of teachers of even the present quality at the present rate of pay. The following scale is suggested:-

masters from $840-$1200 per annum.

7

.

$480-$720

5 pupil-teachers at $240

""

On an average their salaries will be found to amount to $12,540 a year.

75. In addition, until such time as thoroughly competent Chinese masters can be found, and the organization of the Staff simplified accordingly, Composition Mas- ters must be engaged (see section 38 B). One should be put at the disposal of each of the 9 Class Masters. Their pay should average $420 per annum, making an additional charge of $3,780.

76. The Normal Master referred to in section 39 D should be paid $600 per

annum.

77. Thus the total increase in the cost of Queen's College will be :--

To 19 Division Masters and Papil-Teachers, $12,540

This increased cost amounts to about seventy-five cents a month for each scholar."

514

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

78. It will be sufficient if two English Masters are engaged for the Anglo- Chinese District Schools (see section 44). Their pay should be that given to the Junior Assistant Masters at Queen's College, namely $1,800 rising to $2,400. This with compensation will entail an average annual expenditure of $6,300.

79. The salaries of the 6 Chinese Masters in the Anglo-Chinese Schools should be raised to the level of the Chinese Masters at Queen's College, with an average of $810 per annum, or a total of $4,860. Their present salaries and bonuses amount to about $2,600, making a net increase on this account of $2,260.

At.

80. In accordance with the recommendations embodied below under the heading Fees, a small fee should be charged in the Anglo-Chinese Schools. the very low figure of 50 cents a month, $1,800 per aunum may safely be counted upon. The actual increase to the cost of the District Schools will thus be :-

GRANT SCHOOLS.

81. In 1901, an average attendance of 836.39 scholars in English Schools earned $6,983 being an average Grant of $8.22 for each scholar.

The Grant earned by

435 scholars in average attendance at the Anglo-Chinese Schools was $2,822 or: an average of $6.48. The maximum Grant recommended for each class of school has been fixed at $18: but as this will only be given where all the circumstances. of a school combine to raise it to a very high order of merit, it will be safe to estimate the average Grant earned at $15.

The number of scholars earning the Grant may be regarded as unchanged in the English Schools, namely, as 836. But owing to the inefficient nature ofia number of the Anglo-Chinese Schools, it may be considered certain that some of them will fail to reach the standard required by an amended Code; and it is unlikely that the number of scholars will rise above 250 for some years.

82. The net increased cost in the Anglo-Chinese Grant Schools is thus obtained :-

BRITISH SCHOOLS..

84. Of the further provision for education asked for in Part IV, the two British Schools will each entail the following approximate charges :-

@ $1,200; to Mistress for the Infant School

$ 2,850

Until some experience has been gained, it will be impossible to make any more accurate estimate than the above. The rate at which fees should be charged is very doubtful.

THE CHINESE HIGH SCHOOL.

85. Whether the High School is placed under Government, or whether it is managed as a Grant School, the expense of its up-keep will be about the same. An average Grant of $17 (for a high standard of efficiency may be anticipated) to 100 scholars male and female gives a total of $1,700, and it is not probable that a larger sum will be needed in the near future.

THE NEW TERRITORY.

86. The immediate expenditure upon the New Territory will include salaries of two English-teaching and two Chinese-teaching Masters in the linked Anglo-Chi- nese and Vernacular Schools at Uen Long and Sheung Shui. The masters will need to be well paid in order to compensate them for what they will consider banishment from Hongkong. And as it is not proposed to place them under the immediate supervision of an Englishman, the two English-teaching Masters will need a considerable knowledge of English. Their salaries should be at the rate of $1,200 per annum.

The Chinese-teaching Masters should be paid at the rate of $480 per annum. Rent of the school houses and other charges will cost at least $150 for each linked school. School fees should be charged in the Anglo-Chinese Schools from the outset, and should bring in not less than $600 per annum.

87. Thus the total cost should be estimated as follows:-

The percentage of the total Revenue spent on education has always been small and is still decreasing.

91. Adding $34,912, the estimated cost of the proposed increases, to the expen- diture on education for the past year, a total of $95,575 is obtained, a sum less than 2 per cent, on the estimated revenue of 1902 ($4,105,965).

SCHOOL FEES.

92. Where reimbursements by school fees have been counted on in the foregoing calculations, the estimates have been very cautiously made. On this subject the Committee are in agreement with the Indian Education Commission of 1882, section 354 of whose report runs as follows:

6.

*

*

"Policy of the Department in regard to Fees.-The advisability of raising the rates of fees to the highest point consistent with the con- "tinued spread of education has been repeatedly acknowledged. It is, "if not only, yet chiefly, by this means that Government institutions "of the higher class will be enabled to approach the self-supporting stage, a result to which many educational Despatches look for- "ward; and also that privately-managed institutions will attain "to greater efficiency and success.

            The policy which "we recommend has its natural and necessary limits in the fact "that any increase in fees beyond the capacity of the people to "pay them will result in a loss of pupils and thus defeat the object "it is intended to secure. *

* We recommend that it be an "instruction to the Departments of the various Provinces to aim at raising fees gradually, cautiously, and with due regard to necessary exemptions up to the highest amount that will not check the spread of "education, especially in colleges, secondary schools and primary "schools in towns where the value of education is understood."

6.

6.

Again, in section 194, Recommendations as to Fees, the Commis- sioners write: We think it generally desirable that even in primary "schools fees should be raised as far as is consistent with the spread "of education. * * ** The whole educational fund is inade- quate to the supply of schools for every group of villages, and 'those who enjoy the advantage of a school should contribute towards "its cost so as to promote the establishment of similar institutions "elsewhere. But we do not overlook the wants of the struggling

poor, or of exceptionally backward races and tracts.'

CC

The proper policy of the Government towards its poorest subjects is set forth in section 204 of the same report :-

A poor law is unknown in India.

"Poor Classes.- "The rules of caste enjoin the performance of those charitable duties, "by the performance of which the relief of the destitute is dis-

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

}

"tributed over the area of the family and even of the whole caste. "In every caste, not excluding Brahmans, cases of great poverty "exist. But as the caste descends in the social scale, the ins- "tances of poverty increase, and the well-to-do are less able to "render aid to the poorer members of their class. The best remedy is perhaps to relax the rule which requires that edu- 'cation, even in schools which are not entirely supported but 'only aided by the State, should not be purely gratuitous. We "therefore recommend that in all board-schools, a certain propor- "tion of pupils be admissible as free students on the ground of poverty; "and in the case of special schools established for the benefit of the poorer classes, a general or larger exemption from payment of fees be "allowed under proper authority for special reasons. There may be "schools which specially undertake the education of the poor, and "which, under the operation of the above rule, will be unable to 'charge fees, and must thus depend upon charitable assistance and 'grants from the State. The grants which they may earn under "the result system will be very small, and their case seems to deserve 'special encouragement. We therefore recommend that assistance be ' given to schools and orphanages in which poor children are taught "reading, writing, and counting, with or without manual work."

PART VI.

MISCELLANEOUS RECOMMENDATIONS.

HIGHER EDUCATION.

93. There should be no attempt to provide any sort of University Education, until a far firmer grounding for it can be found than now exists in the schools of Hongkong.

Generally speaking, the Committee view with disfavour the idea of selecting one or two promising students, and giving them a free Professional or University Education in England, as has been done in past years.

NORMAL SCHOOLS.

94. There is a very general idea that the main desideratum of Education in Hongkong is a Normal School. While it is fully recognized that the qualifications of the present teachers leave much to be desired, financial difficulties in the way of such a school appear very great, and no practical scheme has yet been suggested. As far as the Chinese teachers of English are concerned, the system recommended in sections 39, 44, and 49, ensures that they shall teach under the control of an English master; and it is hard to see what more they could gain from a Normal School. At the same time it is recognized that Chinese masters should be encouraged to keep up and extend their knowledge of English, as otherwise the teaching in the Junior Classes especially will be apt to deteriorate. This tendency should be met by making promotion in the Teaching Staff of the Government Schools, and the maximum Grant in Grant Schools, depend upon the masters passing regular qualifying examinations.

95. It is still less easy to see how the Normal School proposed would effect any radical improvement in the masters of the Vernacular Schools. If Chinese who have spent a number of years in Anglo-Chinese Schools are still not competent to teach English or Western Knowledge without European supervision, the present teachers of Chinese in Vernacular Schools would be even less qualified to teach Western Knowledge or their Written Language in a practical way, notwith- standing that they had spent one or two years in a Normal School. But it is certain that after such a course of study they would demand an increase in their

517-

518

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

emoluments. This increase would eventually fall on the Government, as well as the cost of the Normal School: but the Committee do not recommend any more money to be spent on Vernacular Schools unless real efficiency can be assured.

ORGANIZATION.

96. Under the existing arrangement the Education Department is organized under two distinct heads. Queen's College, by far the most important school in the Colony, is under its Headmaster: the Inspector of Schools is responsible for the other scholastic establishments.

This arrangement, obviously an unsatisfactory one, should be abandoned when occasion offers.

CONCLUSION.

97. It is desirable to state briefly the principles which were accepted by the Committee as those which should govern the distribution of the expenditure upon education. The Portuguese community present no difficulty: their education is already provided for by the Roman Catholic Corporations, and all that remains to be done is to increase the Government share of the cost. The education of the children of British parents has been provided for on grounds which are justified by the interests of the Empire and of the Colony alike. The only difficult problem is met when the education of the Chinese in the Colony is con- sidered. To what extent is that education a duty incumbent upon the Govern- ment? Beyond that point, how far is it expedient in the interests of the Colony or the Empire? Should the funds available be so handled as to give the greatest number a limited course of instruction; or would they be expended to greater advantage in thoroughly educating a smaller number?

The Hongkong Government has never pretended to supply education to all the children within its jurisdiction, never having asked the ratepayers for the very large sum which would be needed, were it so largely to increase its responsibilities. It is equally unnecessary and undesirable that such an extended provision should be made. A very large number of the Chinese resident in Hongkong prefer to send their children to be educated in their own country: they do not pretend to be citizens, or anything more than strangers in the land; yet it would be impossible to discriminate so as to avoid taxing them for an education which they would never take advantage of. Moreover it would be necessary under the conditions con- templated to put narrow limits upon the courses of study. To suggest, for instance, that taxation should be extended in order to pay for a ten years' course for every child in the Colony is a reductio ad absurdum.

Thus, the argument that provision should be made for the entire population leads naturally to the conclusions, firstly, that taxation should be largely increased in order to provide a smattering for the children of persons who neither ask for it nor desire it; and, secondly, that no attempt should be made to provide a thorough educa- tion. The Committee hold that what education is given should be thorough, and that better results will be obtained by assisting to enlighten the ignorance of the upper classes of Chinese than by attempting to force new ideas on the mass of the people. Civilised ideas among the leaders of thought are the best and perhaps only means at present available of permeating the general ignorance: for this reason much more attention has been paid to the Anglo-Chinese Schools than to the Vernacular. At the same time the principle has been adopted that the cost of a good education should be borne by the recipients so far as they can possibly afford it. The tax- payer who reaps the benefit of every advance in the intelligence of the Com- munity may fairly be called upon to supply the balance.

CORRESPONDENCE RELATING TO THE PROPOSED

ESTABLISHMENT OF (1) A BRITISH SCHOOL;

(2) A CHINESE HIGH SCHOOL.

GOVERNOR TO SECRETARY OF STATE.

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 3rd September, 1901.

SIR,

 I have the honour to forward a copy of a petition received by me and signed by over one hundred of the principal British inhabitants of the Colony.

 2. The petition prays that a school may be established for Europeans only. The statements made in the petition are in accordance with the facts, and hav- ing very carefully considered the question myself, and submitted the petition for examination and report by the late and present Inspectors of Schools, I find my- self forced to the conclusion that, however opposed the proposal may be to the accepted theory of State aided education, the establishment of a school for Euro- pean children is in this Colony highly expedient.

3. Putting aside the deteriorating moral effects of the mixture of the two races in school-a deterioration I venture to say not confined to European boys- it is evident that European scholars who are obliged to regulate their progress by that of their Chinese classmates, who are painfully endeavouring to assimilate West- ern education taught to them in a foreign language, are placed at a serious disad- vantage. Under such a system I can understand the failure of the scheme of Government Scholarships adopted during the administration of Sir GEORGE BOWEN, GEOrge Boweș, and abandoned in 1893.

 4. It is important for the Colony that English boys should learn Chinese, and that Chinese should learn English, but the result of the present system of mixed teaching is that English boys leave the Government School half instructed and Chinese boys leave knowing neither their own language nor English. Thes report of the last examination held at the Queen's College, which I attach,* shows this clearly.

 5. I have spoken on this subject many times with the Bishop of Victoria, who has had a long experience of educational matters in China, and I agree with him · that English should be taught to the Chinese students as a special subject; that they should have some knowledge of the characters of their own language before they enter upon the study of English and that their instruction in the ordinary Western school curriculum should be imparted in the Chinese language. There are, I understand, an ample supply of suitable books for the purpose translated into the Chinese language.

6. In the same way Chinese--at least colloquial Chinese-could be taught as a subject to English boys, for whom it would be necessary if the sphere of their future labours were to be in the Far East.

7. It must be remembered that the children for whose education the estab- lishment of a European School is desired are the children of respectable parents who cannot afford to send them home and who, in many cases, are driven by the present system to the abandonment of their education as, in their opinion, the least of two evils.

8. I enclose a copy of the observations of the Inspector of Schools upon the petition. Mr. IRVING roughly calculates the cost of a school such as that pray- ed for at $4,000 a year over and above the fees. This amount is not large. It might be reduced by increasing the fees, but having regard to the exceptional cost of living for Europeans of the class for whom the school is desired, I question if higher fees could be paid without serious inconvenience.

9. A petition on the subject of separate education has also been received from a number of Chinese gentlemen who pray for the establishment of a school where higher fees than those paid at the Queen's College may be charged. They are anxious to avoid the association of their children with the poorer classes at Queen's College and are willing to pay fees sufficient to support the school without cost to the Colony, but they require the assistance of Government so as to secure a proper succession of Masters. I shall address you on this subject in a separate despatch.

10. The present petition I venture to strongly recommend for your favourable consideration.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble Servant,

The Right Honourable

Enclosure No. 1.

A PETITION FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A BRITISH SCHOOL.

To His Excellency

SIR,

Sir HENRY BLAKE, G.C.M.G..

Governor, etc., etc.

We, the undersigned residents in Hongkong, beg to call your Excellency's attention to the following facts with regard to Education in Hongkong, in the hope that means may be foun 1 for the provision of Elucation for the European children in the Colony, better than exist at present.

1. The need of suitable Education for European children in the Colony is now very great. The European population is steadily increasing. The number of European children in the Colony between the ages of 5 to 16 (inclusive), as

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

521-

v

shown by the recent Census, is 175 males and 202 females. Of these a very large proportion are the children of parents of small means, inclu ling many en- ployés of the Government, who cannot afford either a private education, or to sen l their children to Europe for schooling. To these a school in the Colony where a suitable education can be obtained is an absolute necessity.

2. At present no suitable education for European children, other than Por- tuguese, is provided in the Colony. This statement may seem at first somewhat surprising in view of the number of schools maintained, or assisted by the Government in which "a European education" is said to be "given in a Euro- pean language." We venture, however, to think that the following considerations

will show that our statement is not inaccurate :--

(a) The schools in the Colony assisted by Government are 96 in number. Of these, 70 schools are in Class I, "in which a Chinese education is given"; 3 schools are in Class II, in which "a European education is given in the Chinese language." The schools in these two classes are obviously not available for European children. The schools in Class III," in which a European education is given in any European language," are 23 in number. But in the

great majority of these schools the masters are Chinese only; and these Chinese masters are not only incompetent to give a European education to European children, but also habitually use their own language as the medium of instruction in explaining the English books, which they teach, to their pupils. Such schools are, therefore, also not available for Europeans. There are only two Grant-in-aid Schools in Class III which have English teachers, and are open to Europeans. In addition to the schools in these three Classes, there are the Queen's College and the Belilios Public School maintained by the Government, in which there are English teachers; and also eleven schools maintained by the Government, in which there are only Chinese teachers. Thus of a total of 109 schools there are only 4 available for English children.

(b.) We consider that even in those four schools in which there are English teachers, European boys cannot secure a proper education. Educa- tion should inclu le both the acquirement of knowledge, and also the formation of character. In both these respects we consider that the education of the European children suffers very much from the fact that Europeans an 1 Asiatics are mixed, and the European child has to be educated side by side in the same class with large num- bers of Asiatics.

As regards the acquirement of knowledge, this mixture of races operates very injuriously upon the European. The Chinese come to these schools to learn English, not to acquire general knowledge. In his report for 1866, Mr. STEWART, who was the Headmaster at the Central School and Inspector of the Government Schools, wrote: "Nothing seems to fin favour with the Chinese which does not bear a market value. Hence the comparative success of the Central School, English being convertible into dollars."() The following year "the Principal of of St. Saviour's College dwelled especially on proving the difficulties one meets here in educating Chinese. They don't stuly for the sake of acquiring know- ledge, but for the sake of dollars and to enable them to earn money, and the Very Rev. Father anticipated that with very few exceptions we would never succeed in having Chinese conversant with our Sciences, but we must content ourselves with forming clerks and compra lores."(2) In his Report for 1899, the

late Inspector of Schools explains the more regular attendance at the schools in which English is taught, as compared with the Chinese schools, by the fact that "the education given is a special one having a distinct money value." We do not wish to call in question the wisdom of the Chinese in this matter; but we would point out that in a school in which the majority of boys are Chinese, who come to learn English and not for the sake of acquiring knowledge, the European boy, who comes to acquire knowledge and not to learn English, must be at a very serious disadvantage. That the Chinese boys often do better than European boys in the examinations at such schools does not militate, as it might at first sight seem to do, against this statement; for the Chinese boys have undoubted ability, and, moreover, they far outnumber the English boys, and are of much more advanced age than their European class-imates. The methods of education, moreover, have to be adapted to the instruction of the Chinese, and many an English boy is of necessity kept back whilst instruction is laboriously imparted to those who have a very inferior knowledge of the medium of instruc- tion. The above remarks apply also to the so-called "Foreign Classes" in the Queen's College, where Europeans and non-Chinese Asiatics are mixed. (1)

As regards the formation of character, it is not easy to write without the risk of giving offence to our Chinese neighbours. It is not our wish to do this, for we gladly recognise the worth, and high character, of many of our Chinese fellow-residents in the Colony. But the Chinese boys in the schools are numbered by thousands, large numbers of whom, be it noticed, come from the mainland, and are in no way connected with the Colony; and the ordinary standards of truth, honour, and morality amongst the masses of the Chinese people undeniably differ very widely from our European standards. Chinese children are fully conversant with many matters which are purposely kept from the knowledge of European children. Constant contact with Chinese, both in class-room and play-ground(2) must affect the formation of the character of the European boy; more especially as the average age of the European boy is much below that of the Chinese, and the younger are always apt to follow the older. It is a note- worthy fact that some of our most respected Chinese fellow-residents have recently started a school for their own children, because they do not think it desirable that they should be thrown into constant contact with the boys in the

Queen's College. What is not desirable for Chinese boys in this respect is not desirable for Europeans; but the Europeans who have to send their children to the existing mixed schools, have not the wealth to enable them to imitate the Chinese in this matter of starting a school for themselves.

3. "Perhaps," said Mr. STEWART in his Report for 1870, "the greatest educational want in Hongkong is that of a school or schools for European and American children of both sexes.

The school need not be a free one. After the preliminary expenses of site and building, with which the Government might fairly charge itself, the fees would go far to make the school self-supporting Under whatever regulations it might ultimately be placed, such a school is very much wanted, and it is a matter of astonishment that parents have not long ago made a strenuous movement in this direction."(3) If the want existed in 1870, much more does it exist in 1901, when the number of European children has greatly increased. Efforts have been made to meet the want, notably in the case of the 16

  Hongkong Public School," which was commenced in 1880. This school was started by an influential committee; it had the advantage of good

(1) A young English boy who goes to the Queen's College and is placed in a low class is compelled to sit idle under a Chinese assistant, who teaches his Chinese pupils, in the Chinese language. Could any plan be devised more calculated to render a boy listless and inattentive throughout the rest of his school course?

(2) A senior master in the Queen's College stated that he sent his son to be taught there, but always took good care to keep his son in his own room away from the Chinese boys during the mid-day recess. It is a noteworthy fact that the European masters in these mixed schools have, without exception, sent their own children elsewhere for education.

school-rooms provided free of rent in St. Paul's College; but it failed. chief reasons of its failure were as follows:-First, The Government Grant-in- aid being calculated for schools with large numbers of Chinese pupils and with Chinese teachers, was wholly inadequate to help a school with a smaller number of pupils and with European teachers: Secondly, The fees that could be charged were necessarily low. For these two reasons it was necessary to raise a large annual subscription in the Colony for the support of the school. Then, in the third place, it was a matter of very great difficulty for the managers, who of course had not the control of a large staff of teachers, as the Government has, to retain a teacher permanently at the school; the attractions of Government posts, and other causes, leading to frequent vacancies in the post of teacher. The same cases would operate now on any private endeavour. They simply confirm the fact, now well recognised at home, that for the effective carrying on of education the State must undertake the work. The Public School in Shanghai, with 230 pupils, of whom 80 per cent. are European, the rest being Eurasian and quarter- Eurasian, could not be carried on without an Annual Grant from the Municipal Government of Tls. 4,000 with certain special grants in addition. In Hongkong, as in Shanghai, low fees could be charged; but experience has proved that Mr. STEWART'S anticipation that such a school might be nearly supported by the fees was too sanguine; and in these days it is useless to argue that necessary education should be provided by charitable contributions and not by the rates.

*

4. It has been urged against the proposal to found a school for Europeans only, at the cost of the rate-payers, that it would be "Class Legislation." As a matter of fact the present system is one "Class Legislation" in favour of the Chinese as against the Europeans. All the schools in Class I and Class II and almost all the schools in Class III are available for the Chinese only. The Government has just voted $9,000 to build a school in Yaumati, and that in spite of the fact that others wished to establish such a school, asking, for nothing more than a Government Grant-in-ail. It is idle to say that that school and scores of other schools maintained or supported by Government are available for Chinese and Europeans alike. Even the schools in which English is taught, where they have Chinese teachers, and instruction carried on in the Chinese language, are no more available for Europeans for the purpose of education, than the sea is available for them as a place of residence. It is true that a large proportion of the rates is paid by the Chinese. It is equally true that no inconsiderable proportion is paid by Europeans. The Chinese are bountifully provided by the Government with an education such as they desire. The Europeans are not. We do not grudge the Chinese the advantages given to them: we only ask for similar advantages for Europeans. This Colony is a compositeone. Both Europeans and Chinese are absolutely essential for its very existence. By all means let the Chinese have the advantage of a good education; but we cannot believe that it is wisdom or justice on the part of the Government to make it impossible for Europeans of small means to remain in the Colony unless they are prepared to forego a proper education for their children.

5. It does not fall within our province to enter into details as regards the character and management of such a school as is suggested; but there are certain points of importance, arising from the peculiar circumstances of Hong- kong to which we think it well to call your Excellency's attention.

(a.) In view of the fact that there are many Europeans in Hongkong who require something more than a Primary Education for their children, we think that a school for Europeans ought to combine both Primary and Secondary Education. The scale of fees might easily be adjusted in such a way, that those who desired a higher

523

524

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

education should pay higher fees. It must be remembered that

the Queen's College provides the Chinese with more than a Primary Education.

(b.) We consider that it should be possible for the children to obtain Christian teaching in the school. At present the only religion. taught in the Government Schools is Confucianism! Europeans may justly claim that their children should have the opportunity of Christian teaching. Some arrangement such as exists in Board Schools in England, by which teaching in the Christian Scrip- tures should be given by the Ministers of various Denominations to the children of such parents as might wish for it, would in our opinion be essential.

(c.) In view of the manner in which the European population is scatter- ed, and the difficulty of locomotion, especially in the summer, we consider that it would be necessary to make some arrangement for the boarding of some of the children. This is very largely done in Government Schools in India.

6. In conclusion, and on account of the foregoing considerations, we venture to appeal to your Excellency for the establishment of a school for Europeans only, where people of small means may be able to obtain a suitable education for their children. Whatever may be advanced in argument as a matter of theory, we do not believe that any European in the Colony, from your Excellency downwards, can really consider that the system of mixing a small number of European children with vast numbers of Asiatics in the same schools is really beneficial. As a matter of practical politics such a school as we have advocated is most urgently needed. We most earnestly hope, therefore, that your Excellency will be able to give a favourable response to our appeal.

SIR,

Enclosure No. 2.

A PETITION FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A HIGH SCHOOL FOR CHINESE.

HONGKONG, 2nd March, 1901.

On behalf of an important and influential section of the Chinese Community we desire respectfully to draw the attention of His Excellency the Governor to the urgent need for a suitable English School for the education of the children-both boys and girls-of the upper classes of the Chinese resident in this Colony.

526

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

2. The efforts of the Government have hitherto been directed almost exclu- sively to the spread of an elementary education among what may be called the lower and lower middle classes both Chinese and non-Chinese. But the higher and more thorough training of the children of the more well-to-do classes hast never been provided for.

3. The Queen's College and the Belilios Public School are excellent Govern- ment institutions in their way, but the exceedingly large number of pupils attend- ing these schools and the paucity of English teachers, and the indiscriminate and intimate intermingling of children from families of the most various social and moral standing, render them absolutely undesirable as well as unsuitable for the sons and daughters of respectable Chinese families.

4. As Government Board Schools, the above institutions answer their purposes admirably, but, we submit that, in view of the large increase to the Chinese popu- lation of a higher social status and permanently residing in this Colony, it is time that some provision should be made for a secondary education for their children.

5. At present, Chinese, who wish to give their sons a good English education, have either to send them to England or the United States for a long period or to engage at great expense a private tutor, who after all may not be a trained teacher. In the first case the children are parted from their parents at a most impression- able age and incur a very great risk of finding themselves unable on their return to resume their proper position in the family.

6. The want is now increasingly felt of a school at which such a thorough knowledge of English could be obtained as would enable boys to leave school at a suitable age, and on proceeding to England to at once enter on the special course of study prescribed for the profession which might have been selected for them by their parents.

7. The best interests of the family demand also that the liberal education of Chinese boys should be accompanied by a commensurate advance in the education of Chinese girls, and it is for this reason that the scheme which we now beg to submit to His Excellency's most favourable consideration makes equal provision for girls.

8. The expense entailed upon the Government by the adoption of the scheme may at first sight appear great, but we do not consider that it will be in any way out of proportion to the results which are to be looked for. It is at present a con- stant complaint that, having received an education in the Government Schools, the Chinese have failed to assimilate to any extent English sympathies and ideas, and are ever backward in responding to the call of public duties. But we are confident that thorough education on the lines which we now suggest will soon remove all cause for such complaint. Such an education will not only endow our young men and women with more open minds and greater public spirit, but will result in the more cordial co-operation of the British and Chinese nations and closer intercourse between them.

9. It is well said that "large outlay on education is, if wisely directed, far "from being necessarily open to the charge of extravagance, On the contrary, "an excellent system of public education is one of the best forms of national in- "" vestment. In commercial and industrial efficiency, in a higher level of civic duty, "and above all, in the wider diffusion of moral culture and religious feeling, the "nation is amply repaid for what it spends."

10. We beg to subjoin a scheme* which roughly represents our proposals. Should His Excellency deem them worthy of consideration, we shall be happy to

Enclosure No. 3.

NOTES ON ENCLOSURE No. 1 BY THE INSPECTOR OF SCHOOLS.

 With reference to the question whether such a school should be established by the Government of Hongkong, the following three points must be settled :-

A. Is there any inherent objection to such a school on the ground that, while supported by general taxation, it would be for the benefit

of one class only?

B. If justifiable in principle, is it necessary?

C. If necessary, what kind of school should it be?

A.-As I understand the matter, public funds may be devoted to any object that will add to the strength or wealth of the Colony: such objects are, the erect tion of batteries and forts, public works, and the equipment of the rising genera- tion with knowledge and character enabling then to subserve the general welfare. Now, as to this last object, there is one section of the community perhaps of more vital importance than any other, and that is the members of the mechanical and engineering trades, the skilled British labeur in the dockyards and manufac- tories, the engineers on local steamers and steam-tramways. They are the back- bone of the Colony in time of peace, and their professional knowledge would be a potent factor in its defence in war time. Many of them are already members of the Engineer and other Companies of the Volunteer Force.

I base my justification of such a school as is proposed principally on the good it would do the Colony, by strengthening this vitally important class. To justify its creation, such a school must shew itself an addition to the local and imperial armoury it is no question of granting a compassionate allowance to one section of the community, however deserving.

B.-There are in the Colony, according to the recent Census, 175 boys and 202 girls between the ages of 5 and 16. Few of these are children of the comparatively wealthy classes who can afford to live at the Peak. Most of them have parents of the professions above enumerated. To such parents there are three courses open.

Either they can send their children home to be educated; or they can avail them- selves of the existing schools; or they can let their children grow up with- out instruction. As regards the first alternative, it is simply out of the question on the score of expense in most cases, the expense not only of sending them But in home but of the maintenance of two establishments out of one income. the few cases where they can be so sent home, they are probably lost to the The second alter- Colony it is at least as likely as not they will never return. native before them is to send their children to Queen's College or some other of the local schools. Apart from the educational question, and speaking of the climate, there seems no particular reason why children should not grow up in Hongkong. And it is hard to exaggerate the value to the Colony and the Empire's Far- Eastern interests which there would be in a thoroughly acclimatised, technically trained, well educated nucleus of mechanicians and engineers, who having lost nothing of the natural characteristics added thereto a knowledge of the Chinese language (such as they could hardly fail to pick up) and a full understanding of Chinese methods of business. At present this dream is unrealisable in part. One of two characteristics must be absent: the education must go or the character must suffer, though probably the requisite e lucation is not attainable by any exist- ing means.

The character must suffer. I have the greatest respect for the many good qualities of the Chinese, and feel that I can say without offence, that I should strongly object to send children of my own to attend a mixed school. The Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Victoria, who was for 20 years (I believe) Head of a Chinese Missionary College in Ning Po, and should know, if anyone does, is a signatory of the Petition, para. 2 of which expresses my meaning very clearly.

So universally is this opinion held that the second alternative is in practice hardly an alternative at all. The children are brought up, or allowed to grow up, ignorant. Their sons will be more ignorant still. When we might have had a strong full-blooded British community born to the soil, to carry on our commerce against American, German, and French competition in the Far East, we are lay- ing up for ourselves an unlearned, unskilful, unpatriotic generation of "mean whites" to be the standing disgrace of the Colony.

C. Assuming the school to be unobjectionable and necessary, it remains to consider what its nature should be. The Petition asks for both Primary and Secondary Education. The necessity for the latter must be conceded if my view of the matter is a correct one, and it should be carefully arranged to suit the prac- tical requirements of the Colony.

What the cost to the Colony would be can hardly be estimated at present.

There would be considerable difficulty in finding a site.

Unless it develops into a success, perhaps the Belilios Reformatory might be adapted to this use.

EDWARD A. IRVING, Inspector of Schools.

P.S.-I should add that I am in agreement with those points raised in the Petition to which I have not alluded except the matter of religious instruction. I hold that if this is given at all it should be before or after school hours.

GOVERNMENT HOUSE, HONGKONG, 24th September, 1991

I have the honour to forward a letter received from eight of the leading Chi- nese gentlemen of the Colony, praying that facilities might be afforded them for securing for the children of the better class Chinese a good English education, their reasons for desiring a special school being given. I deferred dealing with this until the general question was being considered, but remembering that the better classes of Chinese are quite as anxious as any European to preserve their children from contact with children of a lower class, intimate communication with whom would be prejudicial to their moral character, I sympathise with the desire of the writers, and hope to receive authority to meet their views as well as those of the European Petitioners for a separate school,

2. The question might present itself that the wealthy Chinese could them- selves

engage the teachers; but I do not think that they could secure the same class of teachers and the same continuity that would result from the employment of teachers by the Government.

3. I entirely agree with the remarks of the Inspector of Schools, and, if we can secure the attendance of the children of the Chinese upper classes, many of whom will if the schools succeed come down from China, and some of whom will probably form part of the official class of the future, the consequences may be far- reaching and the benefit to this country may amply repay the small outlay that the scheme demands. If the school turns out a success the fees can be raised so as to cover all the expense, for the class for which the schools are intended is wealthy and can well afford to pay, I shall be glad to be authorized to enter upon this interesting experiment.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble Servant,

The Right Honourable,

JOSEPH CHAMBERLAIN, M.P.,

SIR

DOWNING STREET,

6th December, 1901.

I have the honour to acknowle lge the receipt of your despatch No. 343 of the 3rd September, enclosing a memorial from certain British inhabitants of Hongkong, asking that a Government School may be established for European children; and of your despatch No. 380 of the 24th September, enclosing a letter from certain Chinese residents asking that a suitable English School may be established, with the assistance of Government, for the education of the boys and girls of the Chinese upper classes.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

2. In view of your strong recommendation, and the arguments with which it is supported, I am prepared generally to approve of the adoption of both these proposals.

3. Before, however, any definite steps are taken towards the establishment of either school, I shall be glad to be furnished with further and fuller details of the initial and the annual cost of each school, so far as they can be forescen at present.

4. I think that it will be necessary for the Colonial Government to limit the amount of its building grant in the case of the proposed Chinese Higher School. I am very doubtful whether Government could afford to contribute a sum equal to or not much below $100,000, if so much were raised by private contributions.

5. You will doubtless also consider and report in due course how the estab- lishment of these two new schools will affect the Queen's College, and whether it will be possible to effect any reduction of the expenditure on the latter schol.

6. I observe from the account of the system of education in Hongkong, which has been drawn up by Mr. IRVING for the Board of Education, that there is a school for sons of the troops in the Colony. If this is in any way controlled or supported by the military authorities, I presume that it will cease to exist on the opening of a Government School for European Children. I also assume that the British and American pupils at the Belilios Public School are likely to be trans- ferred to the new school.

7. It is of course understood that the new schools will be placed under the supervision of the Inspector of Schools.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble Servant,

!

PRELIMINARY MEMORANDA ON PLAGUE PREVENTION IN HONGKONG.

FIRST MEMORANDUM.

SIR,

SANITARY BOARD. OFFICE, 20th January, 1902.

As requested by His Excellency I have the honour to furnish him with a brief memorandum on the measures which it is advisable to take in order to combat the annual and seasonal recurrence of plague. Two deaths have been already reported from this disease within the past fortnight, and it is important from a preventive point of view that vigorous action be promptly taken.

2. No success is likely to accrue from the adoption of any measures limited to dealing with plague in human beings and which does not take cognizance of the fact, that plague in rats and mice also disseminate the infection. It does not serve any very useful purpose to remove the sick and cleanse everything in the infected houses and above ground if the infection is being also carried by plague stricken rats from house to house or district to district by the subterranean movements of rats, whether this be effected by rat burrows or by sewers and drains. Both rat and human plague possess infective powers and each can spread the disease not only to its own species but also to the other.

3. Plague is, in fact, primarily a disease among rats, the infection of which can be conveyed to human beings, but once established in human beings the infection is communicable to others by means of the expectoration, by the discharges from the bowels, and by the urine and by discharges from the buboes or glandular swellings which form in this disease. The clothes, the food and surroundings of a plague patient are likely to be infective and spread the disease to others, while the rats in the house which were previously healthy, by eating the food or coming in contact with the clothes or discharges catch the infection and also spread the disease. Ac- cordingly no measures are complete which do not include the prevention of the disease in rats as well as in man. It is because of this intimate connection between rat plague and human plague that the following measures are advised.

4. To begin with the preventive measures against rat infection, it is absolutely essential to know in what houses, areas and quarters of the town the rats are infected with plague. To obtain this intelligence I would advise the appointment of two or three trained medical officers to bacteriologically examine daily the rats which are found dead by the rat-catchers and any that are alive which may appear to be ill. Large numbers of rats do not become infected all at once, but the infection, as in human beings, gradually spreads from one to another until plague among them becomes epidemic. Once the disease acquires a firm hold on the rats the danger to a locality is very great. I think it might be possible to obtain the loan from the Indian Government of some Assistant Surgeons specially trained in plague bacterio- logical work. The rat-catchers also should be at least doubled in number. The disease among rats could then be localised and the information obtained would cor-

:

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

respond in usefulness with the notification and early discovery of plague cases among human beings. It would then be possible to concentrate, with precision, attention on the infected localities and bring special measures to bear on them, with the view of destroying the rats and their infection before these localities became dangerous in any high degree to man. In connection with the habits of rats it may be mentioned here that whenever rats begin to die in numbers, whether from disease or poison, there is a disposition for the others to emigrate from that locality in a more or less distinctly defined direction. This phenomenon of migration should be borne in mind and watched so that on its first appearance the rats coming into a healthy locality may be destroyed.

 5. These measures would not interfere with, but should go on side by side with the more general destruction of rats throughout the town and district carried out by the public, the object of which is to destroy the underground agents which are susceptible to the disease and thus prevent the infection from being disseminated further than the already infected areas. If the rats and mice are destroyed in a locality before plague is imported, plague becomes comparatively a manageable disease.

 6. The methods of destruction at the disposal of the public are of a limited nature, consisting mainly of the laying down of poison such as arsenic and phosphor- ous, the employment of rat traps, the pouring of crude carbolic acid down the runs of rats and the killing of them when they endeavour to escape, and, in the case of large firms with godowns and warehouses, the employment of rat-catchers. The methods at the disposal of the sanitary authority are also somewhat limited but can be carried out in a more systematic manner. They consist in the pumping of car- bonic acid gas or sulphureous acid gas into small sections of drains and sewers previously blocked up for that purpose, and into the holds of ships and boats infested with rats, the employment of rat-catchers on special areas, the taking up ground floors in infected houses, demolition of the rat runs and the setting up of another slightly infectious disease among rats which is not communicable, like plague, to other animals or to human beings. This disease can be produced by feeding rats with cultures of a coccobacillus discovered by DANYSZ.

 7. No single method is altogether satisfactory in getting rid of all the rats, healthy and unhealthy, but each method when employed systematically materially assists in obtaining that object, and the continuous regular and systematic em- ployment of all these methods in a district ultimately produces excellent results.

 8. For the preparation of DANYSZ virus to be employed to set up disease among rats and mice, I would advise that the services of Dr. HUNTER, the newly appointed bacteriologist to the Colony, be made use of and be placed at the disposal of the Sanitary Board for the time being. I would further advise that thousands of doses of this virus be systematically distributed in different parts of the town not only during every day of the plague season but throughout the whole year in order that an impression may be made on the enormous number of rats, which exist in Hong- kong.

 9. This desirable result will not be effected in Hongkong unless special mea- sures are at the same time taken at the wharves and landing stages to prevent healthy or sick rats from being imported. Every newly arrived ship moored at the landing stages, without being subjected to precautionary measures, adds its quota of fresh rats to the warehouses and godowns. This is a matter for careful considera- tion, and precautions similar to those taken in other ports should be introduced at the landing stages and wharves of Hongkong and Kowloon.

 10. Once the requisite measures are taken against rat plague, which, some times, in addition to the foregoing, necessitate the evacuation of a badly infected area in order to save the inhabitants from being extensively attacked with plague,

543

¿

then, the measures against human plague resolve themselves into those that are ordinarily employed against an epidemic disease such as small-pox. These consist in arrangements for an early discovery of cases, the tracing out of their connection with previous cases, removal of the sick from the healthy, cleansing and disinfection of the infected house, and inoculation, if possible, of those persons who reside in loca- lities in which the disease prevails. These measures, it will be observed, are distinct from the everyday routine sanitary duties of an ordinary nuisance and conservancy inspectorial staff whose time in Hongkong is occupied in the morning in supervis- ing the removal by contractors of the nightsoil and refuse, and in the afternoon in making house to house inspections with reference to house nuisances. The inspect- ors usefully combine with their duties in the afternoon that of ascertaining whether there is any sickness in the house, but as they cannot possibly, in the few hours at their disposal, get over more than a few houses the number of sick persons they discover is necessarily very small. As a matter of fact a large number of the cases discovered are dead or dying. There is one trained disinfecting Inspector. For ordinary times when the Colony is free of epidemic diseases an establishment of this kind, with the Medical Officer of Health and Assistant Medical Officer of Health, may, possibly, be sufficient, but at times of emergency and particularly when an epidemic disease becomes endemic, recurring year after year, special officers and special establishments are required to contend with the special conditions that have

arisen.

y

..

11. The town and district should be divided into conveniently sized districts with a medical man and sanitary inspector in each, their work to consist in the discovery of cases, house to house visitation, and supervision of preventive measures. If they could be assisted by some of the more influential Chinese residing in the district it would be a great advantage. Whenever a case of plague occurs in a house not only should the necessary measures be taken for that house but a zone of houses and buildings surrounding and adjacent to the infected house should be inspected daily by the medical man of the district to ascertain that the inhabitants are healthy and not suffering from any suspicious symptoms. The history also of every case should, as far as possible, be always traced out and recorded as it often gives the clue to the discovery of other cases and other unsuspected infected localities. Par- ticularly the whereabouts of relations and friends who have had communication with the sick or to whom clothes or other articles have been sent from the infected houses should be ascertained. A daily inspection should also be made of the houses within the zone in order to ascertain that all rats have been destroyed and that fresh rats have not taken their place. I understand that there is great difficulty in ob- taining trained medical men for this work. The same difficulty has arisen in other places and has been overcome by securing the temporary services of medical men from elsewhere.

12. Inoculation with Haffkine's prophylactic should be encouraged. If the protective effect of the prophylactic were carefully explained to the inhabitants in the immediate neighbourhood of a plague house, or to those who have come in contact with a person sick of plague, many, probably, could be persuaded to be inoculated, especially if some of the more enlightened residents in the district showed an example by being inoculated themselves. This prophylactic is very efficacious. In Poona, Bombay, and Capetown I found it gave a very great protection to those inoculated, the difference of attacks between those inoculated and not inoculated being nearly 80 per cent. The Plague Commission sent to India from England re- ported very favourably on the protective effect of Haffkine's prophylactic especially when two inoculations were carried out at intervals of one week from another. The prophylactic is not an absolute protection, but it diminishes the chances of attack immensely, and, at the same time, if an inoculated person should be attacked it re- duces the chances of death. The 'inoculation is a very simple process more quickly

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, Hтu APRIL, 1902.

done and less painful in its doing than that of ordinary vaccination. The inocula- tion causes in a few hours fever, headache, malaise, and discomfort for about thirty- six to forty-eight hours and a painful swelling at the site of the inoculation which necessitates rest for a day or two. The discomfort and pain experienced in the inoculated arm are, however, seldom greater than those following vaccination against small-pɔx and only last a few days instead of a fortnight as in the case of vaccina- tion. The inoculation against plague with properly prepared material is perfectly harmless. If the inhabitants residing in a zone surrounding an infected. house are inoculated, they are rendered in a high degree immune to the plague and the risk of the spread of the disease among the inhabitants in that particular area, which is a dangerous area, is much reduced.

13. In Hongkong with its proximity and daily intercommunications with Canton and Macao which appear not to be free of plague, it is necessary to prevent, as far as possible, the importation of plague because every such importation is likely to add to the number of infected centres. This requires arrangements and medical officers for the inspection of incoming passengers from these places. Possibly in the Port as in the districts, Assistant Surgeons from India trained in plague work could be employed under supervision.

14. Connected with the removal of the sick from the healthy, I understand there are special difficulties owing to the Chinese having a dread of being taken to an European hospital.

It is believed, however, that these difficulties could be overcome to a large extent by allowing the large firms to establish private hospitals with Chinese doctors and nurses to attend the sick. If such hospitals are erected on suitable sites approved by the Medical Officer of Health, are equipped with the proper sanitary appliances requisite in an infectious hospital, and the necessary precautionary measures of dis- infection carefully carried out in order to prevent them from becoming centres of infection for the locality in which they are situated, I see no objection. For all sanitary purposes the hospitals would require to be under the supervision of the medical staff of the Sanitary Board. It would be an immense advantage to secure in this way the assistance and co-operation of the different firms in the early discovery and isolation of the sick.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient Servant,

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

SECOND MEMORANDUM.

SIR,

HONGKONG, 20th March, 1902.

I have the honour to submit to His Excellency a resumé of the conclusions which I have arrived at during a somewhat short stay in the Colony investigating plague.

2. The material for the study of this disease is mainly taken from the past, owing to the fact that, during my stay in the Colony, only a few cases of plague have occurred. The conditions and circumstances which favour the annual recurrence and epidemicity of the disease have, however, been more or less present as in preced- ing years.

3. The population of Hongkong is mainly Cantonese, and there is a stream of people passing continually from the towns and villages of the Province of Kwan- tung and adjoining territory to Hongkong and vice versa. This continuous circulation by steamers and by junks goes on throughout the year, but is more particularly great in volume at and after the New Year and again at the tombs festival in April. It is between the New Year and the date of the last return from the festival that Hongkong incurs a serious risk of infected persons, infected clothes, and infected rats being brought into the Colony, varying in different years appar- ently with the amount of plague in these Chinese villages and towns. Later the risk is reversed by infected persons, things and rats, being carried in boats from Hongkong to the mainland. This was the case in 1894, and it repeats itself in other years. In a little over a fortnight, the Chinese will be going home to celebrate the tombs festival.

4. One of the circumstances that tend to keep up the recurrence of plague, is this intimate intercourse with infected areas; another is that Hongkong is a great emporium, with hongs and godowns filled with stores and infested with rats suscep- tible to the disease; a third is the poor class of people of which the greater part of Hongkong consists; and a fourth is the conditions under which a large proportion of this class live. It is essentially a labouring class, floating in its character and non-residential, mostly consisting of males, with their wives and families in the vil- lages of China and, like all people of this class in Eastern towns, living under very insanitary conditions. Hongkong is peculiar in possessing a greater proportion of these insanitary classes and of housing them on a smaller space than other towns. In the early days, owing to the limitation of available land for building purposes and the rapid increase of population, a system came into vogue, when sanitation was considered of no particular account in the East, whereby the inhabitants were crowded into houses built close to one another and heightened as necessity arose without reference to the admission of fresh air and sunlight into the rooms, and each room was subdivided by partitions into cubicles or cabins, generally without windows, which were used separately as a house for several inmates. This system of housing once introduced has continued to the present day, and is permitted everywhere except on the ground floors and in houses in lanes less than 15 feet wide, where cubicles are only allowed on the top floor. It has been permitted to continue even in Kowloon, on the opposite side of the harbour. The result is that, in the older part of the town, there is a greater population per acre than in any town in the East I am acquainted with. In No. 5 District, for instance, there is over 840 persons per acre, which is more than three times the worst and most crowded area of Calcutta. Apart from too many houses being erected on too small a space, the evils attendant on the overcrowding of a dirty class of people are accent- uated by the kind of buildings erected. It is possible to erect high buildings

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, HTH APRIL, 1902. which are sanitary, but in Hongkong the buildings are insanitary in structure and design, and also high. The proximity of the older houses to one another obstructs sunlight, and the internal structure of the houses, apart from cubicles, further darkens the rooms so that it is often not until one reaches the second or the top storey that there is a sufficiency of air and light to secure a healthy habita- tion. It is in these dark rooms and shops that rats and human beings have a com- mon habitation.

5. The endemicity of plague in Hongkong as distinguished from re-infection, is kept up mainly by infected rats in the godowns and stores and in these dark and insanitary places. The insanitary conditions of the older streets and buildings is a legacy of the past. They were referred to by Mr. CHADWICK in his report of 1882, in which he remarks that "both the design and construction of existing buildings is defective. The Building Ordinance requires complete revision. The amended laws must be enforced with more rigour and intelligence than at present, particularly as to alleys, lanes and open spaces." Mr. CHADWICK's report led to the Public Health Ordinance of 1887, which originally contained clauses intended for the improvement of buildings by providing open spaces at the rear, but which, unfortunately, were deleted in deference to the strong opposition that was raised by one of the Chinese members of the Sanitary Board and by others. It was represented that "landed property in the Colony to the extent of millions of dollars will be sacrificed, vested interests greatly interfered with, and public confidence shaken to the ground."

Since this Ordinance the anxiety of the Government to improve the sanitation of the Colony is shown from the many enactments passed with that object in view. They are as follows:-

Scarcely more than six years have elapsed since the appointment of a Medical Officer of Health, and during this period, especially since the passing of the Insanitary Properties. Ordinance of 1899, much has been done to open up and endeavour to make habit- able a very large number of the worst houses. Dr. CLARK's work and that of the Sanitary Board in this respect are worthy of the highest commendation, and it is a matter of surprise to me, the large number of improvements that have been effected in so short a time. But notwithstanding the activity of the Medical Officer of

Health, who is untiring in his devotion, his labours are not so productive of benefit as the conditions require, because even with the existing Ordinances there is neither the

power nor the organization to remedy the past or prevent insanitary dwellings and insanitary areas being constructed in the future. The existing Ordinances, will be explained later on, do not even secure sanitary dwellings. Moreover to prevent further overcrowding it is essential to raise the existing minimum of superficial area and cubic space permitted for each person and to spread out the population. In Kowloon there has been since 1861 land which could have been utilised, and since 1899 there is abundance of land on that peninsula. Land will also be available in Hongkong itself when the several reclamation schemes which are in hand and which are proposed, are carried out, and the projected tramway is begun and completed. But there will be little use of this land from a sanitary point of view if buildings and streets are permitted to be constructed which are insanitary and the rooms of the buildings are permitted to be subdivided into cubicles without windows, each cubicle accommodating as it often does an entire family.

7. With reference to the water-supply and sewerage, they are stupendous works which the Government may well be proud of. The gathering-grounds of the water- supply were, however, not calculated to cover a succession of years of comparatively small rainfall or the enormous waste that always occurs when water is freely sup- plied in the houses of a large Eastern population. Hence the difficulties that have* arisen with regard to scarcity of water for potable and for cleansing purposes. In my opinion, the sewers and small covered storm-water channels should not be de- pendent on the ordinary water-supply for flushing. may, however, be said at once that neither the scarcity of water nor the system of the drainage has any- thing to do with the plague epidemics. I have only one suggestion to make with regard to the water-works and that is, that after filtration of the water at the Albany filter-beds it should be received into covered reservoirs. This has already been recom- mended by Mr. CHADWICK. The exposure of water in an uncovered tank after it has been filtered is wrong in principle as it is liable to contamination which, with typhoid and cholera occasionally visiting the island, is dangerous.

consider-

8. Having mentioned the circumstances which render Hongkong susceptible to re-infection from the mainland, more specially in epidemic years, and the conditions which favour plague endemicity in Hongkong itself, I shall turn to a consideration of the measures which are feasible and which should be taken to prevent the inhabit- ants suffering annually from plague. It is impossible to pull down the whole of that portion of the town inhabited by the Chinese and reconstruct it or any able part of it, though there are districts, which I shall mention later, that must be treated in this way, while even with the most radical improvements rapidly effected, many years must necessarily elapse before any very great change can be effected: Under these circumstances it is important to concentrate every effort as regards plague prevention on the chief modes by which it spreads, and on organi- zation for its prevention. This concentration of effort is not to take the place of sanitary, reform, but it will allow of the inhabitants living in comparative safety while the greatly needed sanitary changes in the town are being gradually effected.

9. The proximity of Hongkong to the Chinese Coast and the very intimate intercourse between the districts of Canton, the West River and Hongkong, together with the fact that the prevalence of the disease in the towns and villages of Southern China are not notified, renders the problem of preventing the importation of the disease specially difficult. I would suggest, if it can be arranged with the Foreign Office, that the Medical Officers of the Consulates in different parts, or the Consul himself, might submit a weekly

bulletin as to the infected towns or villages in his district in Southern China. Arrangements might also be made with some of the leading medical missionaries for a similar bulletin, and it might be possible, with the concurrence of Sir ROBERT HART and the Chinese Authorities, for a weekly

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

bul-tin on this subject to be sent by the Medical Officers of the Customs or by the Commissioners of Customs of the different districts. These would at least assist in giving the Government timely information of infected villages and towns. It is important for this Government to know, at all times, the exact location and state of plague in Southern China for, without this intelligence, no precautions of a precise nature can be taken against the importation of the disease from the infected district, and general precautions are likely, as a rule, to be ineffective. There is no necessity of declaring any place infected, but whenever plague exists in any village or town, suitable

    arrangements should be made for boarding the vessels coming from the district to ascertain if there is any sickness on board. There are at least four months in the year, from the middle of January to the middle of April, which are dangerous, and for these four months, or even longer, special precautions might readily be adopted, particularly if it is known what villages in Southern China are infected.

10. Medical inspection of the steamers loses much of its value, because the voyage by steamer is so short in its duration. In the case of junks which take longer to sail from port to port, medical inspection is likely to prove more efficacious. Still the examination of passengers can only be a slight screen while the further medical surveillance for 10 days, which forms part of the system of medical inspection, is, by reason of the peculiar circumstances of the Colony, quite impracticable. It is the cus- tom in Europe for the purposes of surveillance to take the name and address of all passengers landing and keep them under medical surveillance by visiting their homes or making them report themselves daily at a central office or offices for 10 days. In the Colony of Hongkong surveillance would be useless because of the very large numbers entering, because of the Chinaman having more than one name, of the the probability of the wrong address being given and the impossibility of main- taining an effective watch over the accumulating numbers. The main advantage of the system adopted in Europe is accordingly lost, and it is under these cireum- stances a question open to argument, although it is certain that plague cases are imported into the Colony, whether medical inspection as understood in Europe is of sufficient value to justify its adoption, and if adopted whether it would not be soon found to be impracticable. A modified system of inspection should, I think, however be introduced during the first months of the year. Ships and junks coming from the Chinese coast, more particularly those coming from districts in which plague is known to exist even in the slightest degree, should be boarded by boarding officers previous to their admission to the harbour to ascertain if there is sickness of any kind on board, and if there is the slightest suspicion of sickness whether sup- posed to be infectious or not and there is no medical man on board, the ship or junk should be visited by one of the Medical Officers assigned to the port for that purpose. Such Medical Officers and in fact all the Port Health Officers should be part of the Sanitary Department and should report direct to the Medical Officer of Health. Hongkong has no Custom House officers who could have performed this duty. I am, however, informed by the Harbour Master that three or four Boarding Officers would be sufficient for the purpose. Personally, I am further of opinion that the Canton steamers-Native and European-should, during the first six months of the year, carry at their companies' own expense a medical man who might be a Chinese graduate, educated at the Hongkong College of Medicine for Chinese, to examine the Chinese passengers en route and report to the Boarding Officers.

12. These arrangements are quite different from placing passengers and ships from infected districts under observation at a quarantine station, and they do not attempt medical surveillance once a passenger has landed. They are simply a rough screen against actual or suspected cases. The system is neither surveillance or quarantine, and it would not be followed by either of these. The sick or sug picious only would be dealt with and taken to hospital or to the quarantine station for

observation, all others would be freely passed, and, without delay, greater care being taken with those boats coming from districts in which it is known by the bulletins suggested, that plague exists.

13. Special measures should also be taken for the systematic destruction of rats on in-coming steamers and junks from the Chinese coast, from infected ports, and which go to the wharves or into the docks. The junks and steamers anchoring in mid-stream need not be dealt with, nor need ships in transit, provided the precautions referred to in my previous memorandum for the prevention of rats coming on shore from the ships and boats which are moored to the shore are rigorously and properly enforced.

14. The defence against the importation of plague being so weak, it is all in the town shall be particu- larly strong in order that full control over the disease may be obtained. This cannot be said to have been the case hitherto, for there exists no special and separate organization for that purpose.

the more important that the defence against its spreading so weak, it is all

15. In addition to the ordinary intercourse between China and Hongkong already mentioned, there are thousands of emigrants brought into the town from the districts of Pakhoi, Hoihow, Canton, Amoy, Swatow and the Chinese coast generally to be despatched to Singapore and elsewhere. The busy season is from the New Year to May and, so far as I have been able to ascertain, there is absolutely no control over their housing or movements during their temporary stay in the Colony. Immediately on their arrival they go to the common lodging-houses, boarding-houses, and tene- ment houses in the town, and are collected from these by the Chinese agents and contractors who have brought or have had them brought from China. No emi- grant is allowed to leave the Colony without his or her history having been enquired into and a permit being given, and without a cursory medical inspection before leav- ing;

for this purpose the emigrants meet at the Harbour Master's Office on one day and are inspected on boardship by the Medical Officer of the Port and the Assistant Harbour Master on the next. If rejected by the Medical Officer, the emigrant, unless obviously suffering from plague, goes back into the town, no one knowing where he goes. In the case of American, Philippine and Canadian ports, the medical examina-• tion, as distinct from mere medical inspection, is very complete and each emigrant is bathed and his or her clothes and baggage are thoroughly disinfected.

16. The protection of this Colony does not appear to have come into the arrangements. I would advise that emigration be regulated as it is elsewhere, and with this in view, arrangements should be made that the emigrant-houses are known, registered and kept under special control; that they are inspected daily, that their sanitary condition as regards cleanliness, superficial area, cubic space, sunlight and ventilation, is thoroughly looked after, that a proper register of the names of the inmates is kept by the emigrant-house keeper and that the state of health of every emigrant in this Colony is also known, and this can only be obtained by regular medical inspection of the emigrants in the emigrant-houses and immediate com- pulsory notification of all sickness, whether infectious or not, by the emigrant-house keeper.

17. The early discovery of plague cases is one of the requisites necessary for dealing with the disease. Plague, with its millions of minute and invisible microbes. capable of self-multiplication, is more formidable than an army even with smokeless powder and it is as essential, when dealing with plague, to have the earliest possible intelligence of its several movements, as it is for a General in the field to know the exact and if possible the intended movements of the enemy he has to meet.

18. The usual method adoped in plague and other infectious diseases to obtain. early intelligence of the disease is compulsory notification by the medical men attending the case and by the householder in whose house the case occurs, which is

then followed up by a very careful inquiry by a medical man with the object of tracing out the causes of the disease, .., whether it is due to infection from another case, to infected clothing, to an infected house, to infected rats, or to other causes, aggravated by the conditions under which the patient was living. As pointed out my last memorandum there is no organization for acquiring the second portion of this intelligence, and for that purpose I recommended the appointment of medical men in districts.

in

19. As regards the first portion I find that the system for acquiring early in- formation of all cases, which is adopted in England, has been bodily transferred to this Colony without relation to the differing conditions. What is admirably adapted for the conditions of England does not apply to the conditions of Hongkong. Any one reading the Ordinances of Hongkong in regard to infectious diseases without being cognizant of its inner life would consider the bye-laws most excellent. They impose notification on medical men, lodging-house keepers and on householders. But, with the exception of the few European medical men who may be called in occa- sionally by the Chinese or other Asiatic to attend on them, the bye-laws so far as they relate to the Chinese population are a dead letter. It is the Chinese and Asiatics that are chiefly attacked with plague, and as the Chinese and Asiatics practically comprise over 90 per cent. of the Hongkong community, the value of such bye-laws can be estimated accordingly. The method fails, as has been repeatedly pointed out by the Medical Officer of Health in his plague reports.

20. More serious even than the non-reporting of cases, is that a large propor- tion of the cases are found dead in the street or floating in the harbour. The dead bodies are conveyed at night from the houses and are thrown into the street or harbour. In 1898, no less than 36 per cent. were thus found, in 1899, 40 per cent., and in 1900, 37 per cent., and this occurred notwithstanding the employment of special constables-soldiers, police and others--for the express purpose of preventing it. Until this is put a stop to, there is no chance of plague being effectually dealt with. The throwing of dead bodies into the street is much worse than leaving the dead body in the house, and all the inmates abandoning the house. In the latter case, it is known at least where the infection is, but in the former case when the dead body is thrown into the street, all trace of the infected house and clothes is lost and an unknown centre of disease remains with probabilities of infecting others, either then or in the next year's season for plague.

21. My professional duty lies in pointing out the fact that, while this continues, plague will not be got rid of in Hongkong. It is for the Government to devise an efficient method to prevent it, or to check it to a minimum extent and which shall not have any more serious drawback than the plague itself. I may, however, be permitted to suggest a method for consideration which seems to me more likely to be attended with success than those hitherto tried. I have very carefully considered the question and have consulted others on the subject, and I have come to the conclusion that the Chinese in Hongkong must be treated in this respect more in accordance with Chinese customs. The responsibility should be thrown on them-. selves. I would recommend that the City of Victoria and Kowloon be divided into districts and sub-districts, and each sub-district into streets, and if there is a long street sub-divide this again. Then, that each householder be served with a notice pointing out the importance to his own welfare of the plague being prevented and the necessity of his complying with the law and notifying to the Central Sanitary Office, or office of the medical officer in the district, or the police office, any case of sickness or death in his house, and also warning him that, in the event of a dead body being found in his street, that not only he but all the householders in that street, will be subjected to a fine which will be placed in a common fund to defray the expenses of providing watchmen, blocking up the street and of taking other measures to prevent the spread of plague. There is, I understand, a register of Chinese householders kept by the Registrar General.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL. 1902.

It has been suggested to me that cremation of the bodies thrown into the street would stop the practice, but I am loath to recommend a measure which would probably hurt the religious feelings of the Chinese.

The method which I suggest does not hurt the religious susceptibilities of any one, but it brings home to all through their pocket that each Chinese resident has certain responsibilities and duties to perform with reference to the prevention of plague, and, doubtless, when this is thoroughly understood, the Chinese of Hongkong will soon organize among themselves a system of reporting instead of as hitherto giving no assistance.

22. It is essential and only fair at the same time that every household in the Colony should be informed by means of hand-bills what are the causes and symp- toms of plague and what should be done in the event of plague breaking out in the household. The vast majority of the population is ignorant of the wishes of the Government and of its benign intentions in the matter of plague prevention. Instead of viewing any regulations which they may hear of as intended for their benefit, as well as of the community at large, and in the carrying out of which everyone is nterested, they treat them with the greatest suspicion and alarm and as just objects for evasion.

Certain hand-bills have been printed in English and Chinese giving informa- tion about plague and its prevention. I would recommend that, with some modi- fications, at least 100,000 copies be printed on coloured and attractive looking paper and that they should not only be distributed so that every householder, shopkeeper, caretaker and godown holder should be given one or more copies but that a copy should be posted on every door of a household, in a conspicuous place in every junk, sam- pan, native vessel, steamer, craft, workshop, restaurant and factory. In this hand- bill special prominence should be given to the destruction of rats and equal promi- nence to the addresses of the places where sickness can be notified. Enormous sized posters should also be placed in prominent places in the streets and also in the more public resorts of the Chinese. A conference of Chinese doctors should also be held and the necessity of notification and early reporting should be explained to them; similarly the Chinese contractors of labour and, if possible, the heads of the guilds, should be made fully acquainted with the wishes of the Government.

23. Another and additional method of improving the intelligence branch of the plague department and locating the disease is the bacteriological examination of all rats daily secured by the rat catchers. It was with this object that I recom- mended three doctors trained in this kind of bacteriological work. As the number of rats secured are gradually mounting up and, I hope to see over 1,000 disposed of in a day, probably more doctors will be required for this bacteriological examin- ation. It may be taken as a fact that an infected rat in a house or in a locality means plague in that house or locality sooner or later unless prompt measures are taken to eradicate the infection. Even the Chinese in their villages recognise the fact that when rats are dying in a house, it is dangerous. For the purpose of locating plague, the daily examination of the rats bacteriologically gives most valuable information and it is all important that this information should be promptly acted upon. By this means the infection can be localised and the measures of prevention concentrated on the infected area.

24. Having organized the machinery for the early discovery of human and rat plague together with the machinery for tracing out its ramifications and conditions of extension, the plague department is in a position to deal with the disease. In January a case of plague in Jardine's Bazaar was reported to the Medical Officer of Health by a European medical practitioner. The plague patient was the Chinese wife of an Indian who always employed a European doctor. It was merely accidental then that this case came to the knowledge of the authorities. On careful enquiry,

:

TY

which occupied much time, it was discovered that other suspected cases had occurred in adjoining houses and had gone home and died in their villages in China. It was a locality also in which an infected rat had been found some time before. The block of buildings to the extent of some 20 houses were closed and the inmates were temporarily housed by the Government in a new set of buildings. On examination of the block after its abandonment, 23 dead rats were discovered and the houses themselves were found to be rat-ridden in floors, ceilings and walls; a rat could pass from one end of the block to the other through these rat runs.

25. It is important to thoroughly grasp the fact that plague spreads slowly at first whether among rats or human beings. It is no doubt influenced by the wea- ther, so are armies, which seldom mobilise or carry on active operations in the depth of winter, and it is during a mobilisation of plague, which is a slow process at first but very rapid afterwards, that effective work can be done to destroy it.

When an epidemic once gets beyond a certain stage none of the measures which were useful at the beginning will influence the duration of its destructiveness. Measures such as the vacating of a whole block, on account of rat or human plague will prove succesful if applied promptly and at an early stage, but cannot be recommended later on because of their impracticability.

26. The abandonment of the block is a mere temporary measure and of little permanent value unless the rats in the block are destroyed and the houses made rat- proof. In many of the old houses I have examined, I find the footings of the walls consisting of loose rubble stones so that rats are able to pass easily under the floors from house to house, and in old houses with hollow walls to pass up to the ceiling and often by this means into the rooms of the upper storeys. The filling up of the rat runs in the footings with glass and cement and a three or four-inch layer of cement on and at the sides of the footings and on the floor are necessary to render the ground floors safe.

27. As in the vacating of large blocks, which is quite feasible and useful at the commencement but which is impracticable later on, so it is with the isolation of contacts. After a certain stage, it is impracticable to provide for contacts and keep them under observation. The vacating of the house is the chief measure. When this is done promptly it has been ascertained that the number of contacts falling ill afterwards forms but a small percentage. If arrangements are made for the disinfection of the clothing and effects of the contacts and they are thoroughly examined by a medical man, they can be allowed to go to certain districts, pro- vided it was not a case of pneumonic plague which, at the highest computation, forms a very small percentage of the plague cases. In such a case the contacts from the floor should be provided for.

The system until lately practised of vacating a floor for six hours only during the fumigation should, therefore, be replaced by a complete vacation of the building in all cases.

28. If a case of plague occurs in a house a medical inspector with an inter- preter should immediately visit the house and make as careful an enquiry as possible into its history and the manner in which it was probably caused. If it is a case of pneumonic plague the inmates of the floor should be treated as contacts and isolated for 10 days. If not a case of pneumonic plague the clothes and effects of the inmates of the floor should be disinfected by steam and they should be permitted to leave. If it is possible to get them to report themselves for ten days at the Sanitary Office of the district in which they reside, it is useful; if not possible then the risk run is after all small. The house itself should then be vacated ; and by the house I do not mean the one room which may contain half a dozen families, but the whole building; and a bye-law should be passed without delay to

·

give effect to this. The building having been vacated the floors, ceilings and walls should be thoroughly examined for rat runs; rat poison and rat-traps should be laid down for one night and then the building should be cleansed and disinfected. Usually it will be found necessary that the owner should make the house rat-proof and put it in a sanitary condition before it is re-occupied. If a sufficiency of light and air cannot by structural alterations be admitted, it should be declared on that account unfit for human habitation and should not be re-occupied. The rats in the adjoining houses should be destroyed and examined bacteriologically and, if found necessary, these houses should also be rendered rat-proof and altered so as to admit a sufficiency of air and light.

A similar procedure of vacating the house should be carried out when rats infected with plague are discovered therein, or when several infected rats are found in the adjoining street.

29. The plague work should be independent of the ordinary sanitary routine work of the day, and therefore requires a special establishment which can work in conjunc- tion with the Sanitary Department and get the benefit of its assistance. But the two should not be amalgamated to that degree that one set of duties are lost in the other. The Director and executive Head of both should be the Medical Officer of Health for the Colony. His time must not, however, be occupied with clerical work, which should be relegated to a capable head clerk or if necessary several clerks work- ing in his office. I would recommend that the weekly bulletins received by the Government and all official documents relating to the Health of the Colony, or to outbreaks of disease in other countries should be sent direct to the Medical Officer of Health; while official documents relating purely to administrative work should be addressed to the administrative President of the Sanitary Board.

30. The duties of the special Plague Department summarised, are:---

(1) The discovery, location and microscopical examination of plague

cases whether-

(a) rat plague;

(b) human plague.

(2) The tracing out of the history of the human plague and the con- nection with others, if any, of each case and the following out the course of rat plague.

3) The removal of patient and disinfection of clothes, &c.

4) The examination of contacts and disinfection of the contacts' effects. (5) The vacating of buildings.

(6) The destruction of rats and the cleansing of infected buildings. (7) The seeing that infected buildings and adjoining buildings are made

rat-proof and that air and light is admitted into these buildings. (8) The careful supervision as regards cleanliness and freedom from rats of the houses provided by the Government for people removed from any block of buildings.

persons.

(9) The boarding of vessels when required and inspection of sick (10) The establishment of a quarantine station for the observation of any

sick persons coming by boat from an infected district. (11) The inspection of the quays and reporting to the Harbour Master any relaxation or infringement of the regulations relating to the precautions in the harbour to prevent rats from coming on shore. (12) The general destruction of rats in godowns and elsewhere. For

this

purpose several of Clayton's machines for pumping gas would be useful. The distribution of rat poison in the storm-water

(

channels, houses, quays, stores, &c.; the superintendence of the work of the rat catchers; the preparation of cultures of Danysz bacillus and its distribution.

(13) The special destruction of rats in infected areas.

(14) Preventive inoculation with Haffkine's prophylactic.

(15) The keeping of the necessary registers and notices, also bulletins received from Southern China and the issuing of the weekly

reports.

These duties, it will be seen, are distinct from the ordinary routine of the Sani- tary Department, which is occupied chiefly in matters relating to the scavenging and conservancy of the City of Victoria, the villages and Kowloon; to the abate- ment of nuisances, etc.; to the drainage of houses; and to the dealing with cases of small-pox, cholera, diphtheria and other infectious diseases.

31. Neither do the duties in any way touch the larger sanitary questions of the Colony such as the distribution of the water-supply and its purity as apart from the constructive work, the maintenance of the sewerage and its flushing arrangements, the laying out of streets, public and private, projecting new streets and scavenging lanes, improving the line of old streets, the reservation of open spaces, the construc- tion of healthy houses, the space to be left between and about buildings to secure free circulation of air, the provision of public and private latrines and urinals. Nor do they include the abolition of cubicles without windows nor the larger questions relating to insanitary property. There are areas such as No. 5 district in which nothing short of acquiring the property, compensating the owners, and demolishing and reconstructing, can improve the sanitary conditions, and there are others in which the conditions can gradually be improved. There is also the very important duty of preventing what is actually even now taking place of insanitary areas springing up in the town; and of blocks of buildings being erected to contain hundreds of inmates without the owner of the buildings being obliged to provide for each house a latrine in the backyard, and for every block a public latrine with a proportional number of seats to the number of inmates the block is likely to contain.

32. It is only necessary to enumerate these sanitary duties which are now more or less carried out by different and independent officers, but are not co-ordinated under the head of a department, to make it obvious that a Sanitary Board, meeting infrequently and having a President who is particularly well fitted for the position, but who is not expected to devote his whole time to the duties or even the greater portion of his time, who has no administrative or executive powers other than carry- ing out the decisions of the Board in meeting and who is not on the Executive Council of the Government, cannot give that continuous and detailed attention to the sanitary requirements which the rapidly growing City of Victoria on one side of the harbour and the town of Kowloon on the other, demand.

33. In order, however, that the President and Sanitary Board shall be able to effectively deal with these questions, it is necessary that the Public Health and Building Ordinances shall give them the necessary powers. I have already men- tioned that the internal design of a Chinese house as constructed in this Colony is insanitary. The rooms, as a rule, are far too deep, the object of this depth being to sub-divide each room into a number of cubicles for the accommodation of families or lodgers. Though there may be windows at each end of the room,

                                the great depth materially obstructs the light. For instance, to take an example from the better class of buildings, many of the houses that are being erected on the Praya are eighty feet deep without lateral windows and contain long narrow rooms of fifty-five feet in depth, by twelve or thirteen feet in width, lighted in front by a window and also in the rear by another window which looks into a backyard of twelve feet in depth. The houses are sixty feet high and behind the backyard of twelve feet, approached by a

bridge, are the kitchens, on each floor. The kitchens form a building as high as the house, and practically cut off the greater part of the light from the back. These long tunnel-like rooms are dark of themselves and are still further darkened by insufficient open space behind. As if this were not enough, a masonry verandah ten feet wide is added in front on each storey and projected not on the site belonging to the house but over the public street. This verandah still further obstructs the light. When occupied as a tenement dwelling each room is still further darkened by being sub-divided into cubicles each separately occupied by a cubicle holder who may have his wife and family or his friends living in it. The air in these cubicles is stag- nant and the light in them, from a sanitary point of view, is most inadequate. The projection of these several-storied masonry verandahs over public streets is a curious privilege or custom that has arisen in all streets over fifty feet in width. It is tantamount to the Government making a present of a certain amount of land for habitable purposes-for most of these verandahs are practically rooms-to every builder of a house. On the Praya, it is a gift of ten feet for eighty, but in some parts of the town the proportion of land given is greater. In Queen's Road the street is fifty feet wide and the houses on each side of the street have three-storied verandahs. Each verandah encroaches on the public street ten feet to eleven feet, so that practically the street originally fifty feet has been narrowed to less than thirty feet. In determining the height to which a building shall be erected the full width of the street from house to house and not the actual width of the street from verandah to verandah is taken as the measure. It seems as if the builder gave nothing and received a good deal.

34. In any future Ordinance and in any future sales of land the Government should have powers to prescribe the type of house to be built in different parts of the Colony. The long deep rooms without any lateral windows to them are very objec - tionable. It is obvious also that rules and regulations suitable for European houses at the Peak are not suitable for Chinese houses or for houses of the warehouse and office class. Excellent plans of improved Chinese houses have been prepared by the present Director of Public Works, and by one or two of the local architects. Powers should also be obtained to regulate the maximum proportion of the roofed over area of any domestic building hereafter erected in such a manner that every such building shall have an adequate open space attached to it. This open space should in future be at least one-third of the total area, and the streets and scavenging lanes should not be included in calculating this total area. Back yards should bear a minimum proportion to the height of the houses and not as now to the depth. The depth of a house should be regulated by its lateral windows, the objection to deep rooms is removed with lateral windows. No cubicles should be allowed in new houses unless each cubicle is provided by a window. In old houses the cubicles should be gradually eliminated except perhaps in top storeys, where skylights and special arrangements for ventilation can be introduced. To prevent overcrowding, the superficial area or floor area should be raised from thirty to fifty feet per head.

35. There are other matters which call for attention, but probably the fore- going will suffice to indicate that many important measures require to be enforced and that the details of them can only be properly considered and efficiently carried out by having an administrative President of the Sanitary Board whose whole time is devoted to this work and whose title might be "Sanitary Commissioner" for the Colony.

SIR, In accordance with instructions, received through the Crown Agents for Report-- the Colonies, from the Secretary of State for the Colonies, I have made a preliminary examination into the sanitary condition of Hongkong, from an engineering point of view, and I have the honour to submit the following preliminary report thereon.

2. In the various despatches which have been sent to me for my instruction Reference to and guidance, mention is made of the possible connection between the epidemic of works on Plague and its recurrence, and the sanitary works, which have been carried out since my last visit, more especially the sewerage-works.

3. Inasmuch as Professor SIMPSON, M.D., F.R.C.P., has been appointed to investigate Canse of the question of Plague, it seems to me to be unnecessary for me to enter into this ques- referred to tion; for it belongs rather to the province of the Medical man, than to that of the Professor Engineer. Suffice it, therefore, to say that, up to the present, no evidence has no reference reached me which leads to the belief that any engineering work, which has been to it in this carried out, has occasioned or even contributed to, the outbreak of plague, or to its periodical recurrence. Some recommendations, which I made in 1882, have not indeed been carried out, and the result of this inaction will be better described by Professor SIMPSON, than by myself. The reasons for the non-compliance with the said recommendations, will be discussed later on.

distributary system of pipes, to meet the largely increased water-supply. Sir ROBERT RAWLINSON was requested to visit Hongkong, and report on the water-supply, and other matters. On account of his advanced years and his other avocations, he. felt it impossible so to do, and I was appointed. in his stead, to go out and arrange for the completion of the water-supply system, the necessary pipes for which had already been indented for from England. During my absence, however, Mr. PRICE had submitted a sewerage-scheme, prepared by Mr. F. COOPER, C.E., C.M.G.

                                      I was also instructed to thoroughly investigate the same and prepare a final scheme for adoption.

8. On my arrival in 1889, I found that Mr. PRICE had retired and had been succeeded by Mr. S. BROWN, as Director of Public Works. Mr. COOPER, though originally appointed for sanitary works, was acting as Assistant to the Director of Public Works. My first work was to make arrangements for laying the distributary pipes, which were shortly to arrive from England, so that the benefits of the new water-supply might be realised as soon as possible.

9. The Government decided, for reasons that I need not now state, that the Departments Water and sewerage works were to be a separate and independent Department, under constituted Mr. F. COOPER, as Resident Engineer. It became, therefore, my duty to organise this newly-created Department. Stores and workshops were provided and a com- plete system of accounts was inaugurated. Mr. A. M. QUILL and afterwards Mr. CROOK were appointed Assistant Engineers in the new Department.

pendent department.

Pipe-laying commenced in 1889.

10. The work of laying the new mains, and of improving the old distributary system was carried on with vigour. Arrangements were also made for extending the water-supply to the Peak District, and to other districts above the level of the conduits. The water-supply of Kowloon was also studied.

Sewerage

11. At the same time, I examined the sewerage scheme, which had been pre- scheme considered. pared by Mr. COOPER.

Whilst approving in general terms Mr. COOPER's design, I made, after consultation with him, certain modifications, tending to simplification and economy. The revised Scheme was described in three reports which I sub- mitted to Government, doubtless after consideration and approval by the Sanitary Board, of which I was then a member. I believe that the plans of the whole sewerage system were not actually completed and submitted, during my stay in Hongkong, but all the leading lines of main sewers, such as those in Queen's Road, were studied by Mr. COOPER, and by myself. Mr. XAVIER, the only Officer of the Public Works Department, now in the service, who was with me in 1890, states. that the sewerage of the High Level District was commenced during my visit of 1890. Diameters, levels and gradients were determined, and the positions of the out-falls were fixed, in accordance with the Praya Reclamation, then commenced. The complete plans were subsequently submitted to, and approved by me, after my return to England. Practically little or no sewerage-work was carried out, during my stay in Hongkong. I was appointed Consulting Engineer to the Water and Drainage Department.

Appointment of Mr. COOPER as Director of

12. On the death of Mr. S. BROWN in 1891, the appointment of Director of Public Works was offered to Mr. COOPER. I was asked by the Colonial Office whether this arrangement was consistent with the efficient construction of the water- Works. and drainage-works, for which I was responsible as Consulting Engineer. Consider- ation to keeping that the works had made good progress, and that the services of two expert and Sewerage assistants were available, I replied that I saw no cause for withholding so important. separate. promotion, from Mr. COOPER.

13: Shortly after Mr. COOPER's appointment as Director of Public Works. Resignation feeling that the work, which I was called upon to perform, no longer justified the pointment of payment of an annual salary, I resigned the post of Consulting Engineer.

Since that time, I have had no regular communication with this Colony. One or two matters have indeed been referred to and reported on by me, notably a pro- ject for increasing the water-supply, the new water-supply for Kowloon, with requisitions for stores, appointments and other minor matters. I may here add that the question of insanitary dwellings did not come before me, in 1899-1900. I was fully occupied with other matters.

14. The present scarcity of water, which according to all rules of probabilities, Proposals may be expected to be prolonged for some time, renders it obvious that prompt project to steps should be taken to augment the present supply, and, what is yet more im- be deferred. portant, to take measures to prevent waste and extravagance. It would unduly delay the submission of this report, were I to attempt to make herein, any definite proposal, as to the works to be undertaken, for the definite augmentation of the water-supply, so as to meet the requirements of an increasing population. Before any reliable scheme can be submitted, surveys and other investigations must be made, which will occupy more time than I can now place at the disposal of the Colony. In this report, therefore, I will limit myself to suggesting works and operations which can be carried out promptly, and I shall merely indicate the general lines on which future extensions should be carried out, according to the evidence now before

(a.) Catch-water channels, in connection with Taitam Reservoir, bringing in water from adjacent Gathering-grounds, not draining directly to the reservoir.

(b.) A reservoir to contain 33 million gallons, with a long catch-water

channel, at Wong-nei-chong Gap.

(c.) Additional filter-beds at Bowen Road; with a service-reservoir, so designed as to afford an additional supply, by pumping, to the Hill District.

(d.) A service-reservoir at the Peak.

The hydraulic motor and Proposed pumps, at Bowen Road, have been erected, and the rising-pipes have been laid. second service-reservoir is under construction, near to the summit of Mount Gough. A service-reservoir has also been constructed, at an elevation of 650 feet, to supply the upper zone of the City. This reservoir replaces that originally constructed, near Belilios Terrace, a site now occupied by buildings.

18. The Taitam dam has also been raised, so as to give an additional depth of Increased 12' 6", thus increasing its capacity from 305 millions of gallons to 406 millions. This Taitam

capacity of work was in hand, when Mr. COOPER reported, and was finished in 1897.

on three occasions, namely, in 1892, (when the distributary system was hardly complete), and in 1897 and 1898, has it been found practicable to continue the supply, without resorting to restriction.

The effect of the new works has been to increase the gathering-ground by 54 per cent., the Reservoir accommodation by 36 per cent., and the effective water- supply by 26 per cent., whilst the population of the City and Hill Districts has increased by about 17 per cent.

The following statement shows the increase of storage and gathering-ground which has been made since 1892:-

The supply has not, therefore, increased in proportion to the extension of the gathering-ground. The reason for this is that the waters of certain areas do not flow direct to the reservoirs, but are collected by. catch-drains, which do not inter- cept the full quantity, during violent rain-storms.

A further reason is that the total supply, given in the text, includes a large quantity of water picked up, along the course of the conduits, and which therefore is only affected indirectly, by the storage. The area of these intercepted gathering- grounds is not included in the areas, given in the statement, because the supply from them, is only partially developed.

works pro-

20. In addition to the works proposed by Mr. COOPER, for meeting the immediate Further wants of the City, works which have, as aforesaid, been fully carried out, he pro- posed by posed other deferred works, for meeting the future wants of the Colony. These Mr. COOPER.

are:-

(a.) The construction of three new reservoirs within, and fed from, the existing Taitam gathering-ground. These are shewn on Drawing No. 7, accompanying Mr. COOPER'S Report of 1896. Sites Nos. 1 and 2, are on one of the tributary streams, above the existing reservoir and have a joint capacity of 110 millions of gallons, whilst that at site No. 3, is situated immediately below the by-wash of the same, and has a capacity of 20 millions of gallons.

(b.) The construction of a reservoir, below Taitam, at site No. 4, having a capacity of 100 millions of gallons, and a new gathering-ground of 375 acres of which 128 acres is intercepted by the Taitam catch- water. As the level of this reservoir is but 180 feet, above O. D., the water, stored in it, would have to be pumped into Taitam. (c.) The construction of a small reservoir, in the bed of the Taitam stream," at a level of 108, having a capacity of 4 millions of gallons. This is to be merely a store-pond, to collect the dry-weather flow of the main Taitam stream, so that it may be pumped, with the water of Reservoir No. 4, into Taitam.

(d.) The construction of a large storage-reservoir, in the Pokfoolum ̧

valley, below the existing dam. The waters of this were to be con- ducted to the lower zone of the City, by a special pipe. The capacity of this reservoir was to be 78 millions, and special filter-beds were to be constructed, in connection therewith.

(e.) Raising the existing Pokfoolum dam, so as to increase its capacity by

23 millions of gallons.

None of these works are yet completed, and the small reservoir at No. 3 site, alone, is in hand.

The reser- Effect of voirs, at sites Nos. 1, 2 and 3,* are, practically, within the existing gathering-ground works as of Taitam reservoir. Their construction would not add to the total water-supply, due proposed, to the rain falling on, and flowing off from, the gathering-ground, but merely would trict. render a greater proportion thereof available for use, by storing water that would flow to waste. The effect of these works would be practically the same as that which would be produced by increasing the capacity of the Taitam Reservoir, by further raising the dam, were it safe so to do.

22. When Mr. COOPER wrote his Report in 1896, he calculated, in accordance with As to the

advisability previous experience, that the reservoirs on sites Nos. 1, 2 and 3, as well as the augmented Taitam dam would fill, even in a very dry season.† Subsequent events, without in- however, have shewn that such is not the case.

• No. 3 indeed will receive the water from a small additional catchment area, which now escapes the Taitam Reservoirs.

† On closer examination of Mr. COOPER's report, it does not appear clear whether he considered that all these reservoirs would fill in a very dry season.

   Summary of conclusions

to Taitam system.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

The Taitam Reservoir never filled in 1901. Consequently, the additional reser- voirs would not have filled, and the water-supply for the water-year 1901-2, would not have been increased, by their construction, by a single gallon.

If, however, the new reservoirs had been filled during the water-year 1900-1 and kept full, up to the end of that water-year, then their contents would be a most valuable addition to the supply at the present season. But would they have been filled? I find from the Log-book that, although the rainfall for 1900-1901 was 75 inches, the Taitam Reservoir did not overflow, or at least, if it did, the quantity which escaped could not have been great. Unfor- tunately, there is no means of estimating, with even an approach to accuracy, the amount of water overflowing during any season. The only plan, there- fore, is to ascertain the probable quantity which may be collected from a given area, with a given rainfall, from the results obtained during years in which there was no overflow. Again, the rainfall recorded at the Observatory has hitherto been assumed as the basis of all calculations, as to water-supply. Now, observations have been made at Taitam and Pokfoolum for a number of years, and appears that the rainfall at Taitam is not always equal to that at the Observatory, but often greater. One has, therefore, to fall back on the assumption, not wholly scientifically warranted, that the rainfall at Taitam and at the Observatory, though not equal, are at least proportional. In other words, when a deficiency is recorded at the Observatory, there will be a proportional deficiency both at Taitam and Pok- foolum. Again, supposing that the rainfall observations, taken at the Taitam and Pokfoolum stations, are absolutely exact, it does not follow that they represent the rainfall, over the whole of the gathering-ground. The rainfall on the heights may be more or less than that on the relatively low ground, where the gauges are situa- ted. Therefore all calculations based on rainfall observations, made at any one sta- tion, are, to say the least, open to doubt. The only facts that we can rely upon are that, during recent years, unusual droughts have occurred, and that during these droughts, a certain supply has been collected from given gathering-grounds.

it

23. I have come, therefore, to the preliminary conclusion that, as regards the Tai- with regard tam system, the construction of additional reservoirs, within and fed by the existing Taitam gathering-ground, will not appreciably augment the water-supply, simply * because there was no overflow in the two successive water-years, 1899-1900 and 1900-1901. The only way in which additional storage could effect any improve- ment, would be to make it so large as to make it possible to carry forward a reserve- stock, from some previous year or years of superabundance.

Arrangement

of statistics -

misleading.

24. The arrangement of rainfall statistics and water-supply by calendar years, is by calendar misleading. The principal quantity of rain falls in May, June, July, August years vide Table II). In September, also, welcome rain may be expected, filling up reservoirs that may be already falling, and replenishing the streams that are inter- cepted, along the lines of conduit. September, therefore, may be included as a water- giving month. In the five months, May to. September inclusive, water has to be stored, in order to maintain the supply, through the ensuing seven dry months, during which but little rain is to be expected. Most of the water, reaching the water-works, during the dry months, is rain that has been absorbed and stored by the soil, and which is percolating through it, to the various streams, which form the feeders of the reservoirs. Some also may come in the form of violent showers, when a large per- centage of the rain-water runs off from the surface.

26. The Water Authority therefore should, in future, report to Government Return to be annually, on two dates, namely, as soon as practicable after 1st October, and again accordance at or after 1st May. The first report should state the stock in hand, on 1st October, with water- and the maximum stock, in the reservoirs, during the wet season and at its conclusion. The measures of restriction, which should be taken, during the coming dry season, should also be set forth.

The report, rendered as soon as practicable after 1st April, should set forth, in full, the operations which have taken place during the elapsed water-year, namely, the quantity of water collected from various sources, during the past water-year, and the total supply given to the City and Hill Districts with the balance, carried forward. In short, all the information, which is now given in the (calendar) annual reports of the Water Authority, should be recorded, but it should be arranged by the water-year and not by the calendar-year. The annual report of the Water Authority may contain a resumé of the results of the calendar-year, but this return will only be of use with regard to financial matters.

these reports.

27. The regular submission of these two reports, will call the attention of the Object of Water Authority and of the Government, to the situation, as regards water-supply. It will be seen whether the stock in hand will probably suffice to carry on the supply unrestricted, during the coming dry season, or whether restriction will be necessary, and if so, when and how it should be applied.

For example, if the reservoirs have not filled, by the end of September, and if their level is falling, at that date, it will be well to apply severe restriction and continue it until they are full, or until sufficient water is in stock, to maintain an unrestricted supply with safety, during the coming dry season. If welcome rain should fall, during the dry season, then the constant supply may be re-established, forthwith. It will be better to apply restriction, during the wet season, when, even in dry years, the natural moisture is abundant, than to defer it until the winter months, when the greatest commercial activity prevails in the City, and when the demand for water is greatest. In short, at the end of September the Water Authority should submit a budget, setting forth the stock of water in hand, with

an estimate of the probable receipts from rain and the estimated expenditure, during the coming dry months, and at the end of the water-year he should submit a balance-sheet, shewing the actual transactions of the past water-year.

28. The following statement, arranged in debtor and creditor form, serves to give a general idea of the amount of storage which must be provided in order to maintain a uniform supply equal to that due to the average rainfall of a long cycle. supply equal Or, in other words, to carry forward, from years of abundance, to supplement deficiencies during years of drought. It is evident that the maximum supply that can be maintained, at a constant rate, over a given cycle of years, is that due to the average rainfall, during the said cycle. To do this there must be sufficient storage in order that there shall be no overflow, even in the wettest year.

of a cycle.

Now, the average rainfall at the Observatory, for 17 consecutive years, amounted to 85 inches, nearly.

To ascertain the amount of storage the account has been made out for One Acre only, so as to avoid inconveniently large figures, and, for the same reason, the observed rainfalls have been taken, to the nearest inch only. It has been also assumed that 60 per cent. of the rainfall is available for collection.

Then the average supply that one acre would given is :-

There is, of course, a balance of 250,000 gallons, at the end of the period, to carry forward to the next year.

Additional gathering- ground as well as storage required.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

It will be observed that, at the end of the water-year 1894-95, there was a balance of 1,363,642 gallons, to carry forward, at the end of April, to the next year, or rather more than a whole year's supply. But even this would not suffice, because there must, in addition, be space in the reservoir to receive the excess of rain over consumption, in the subsequent wet months. As it happened, the next year was one of low rainfall-54 inches. Therefore it will be more instructive to see what happened during the water-years 1893-94 and 1894-95. Here the balance brought forward on 1st May, 1894, was 1,092,022 gallons. From May to October, 1894, inclusive, 100 inches fell, as shewn in the statement given, and at the end of October there was a stock in hand of 1,872,928 gallons, or 780,906 gallons more than the stock at the commencement.

*

It is, therefore, evident that events may take place, which will necessitate carry- ing forward a balance of 1,368,642 at the end of the year and we might require room for 778,906 more, in all 2,147,548 storage capacity, or 675 days' supply would be the amount of storage required, to equalise the supply for a long cycle of years, and bring it up to the amount due to the average rainfall of the period in question.

In a recent paper, before the Institution of Civil Engineers, it was stated that in India two full years' supply was found to be necessary in the case of Town supplies. Applying these figures to Taitam the gathering-ground of which is 1,093 acres, then the daily supply, due to 85 inches of rain, is 3,456,000 gallons, and the storage to maintain it would be 3,456,000 × 675=2,332,800,000 gallons. These figures are not given as absolute but only to indicate the order of magni- tude of the storage requisite for full development of a given area.

Suffice it, therefore, for the present to say that the proposed reservoirs, within the existing Taitam gathering-ground, will add but little to the available supply.

30. Therefore, within the Taitam District, additional gathering-ground, with appropriate storage, is required, rather than an extra storage, with the same gathering-ground. Now additional gathering-ground can only be obtained by going lower down the valley, and pumping the water collected, up into the Taitam Reser- voir. The construction of reservoirs, at sites Nos. 4 and 5 should, in my opinion, take precedence of any works at sites Nos. 1, 2 and 3. Indeed, I am of opinion that it would be well to go further in this direction, and construct a reservoir or reservoirs still lower down, of ample capacity, so as to collect the rainfall of the whole gather- ing-ground, down nearly to sea level. Mr. COOPER does not give any particulars of in ascertaining the reasons. why he limited himself to a small portion only, of the lower gathering-ground.

31. I recommend, therefore, that the Taitam-tuk valley, with its various ramifica- tuk valley to tions be surveyed from about high-water mark, up to about 250 feet Q. D. be carefully be surveyed for reservoir surveyed, with a view of ascertaining what storage accommodation can be obtained, by the construction of one or more reservoirs, so as ultimately to develop, to the utmost possible extent, the full gathering-ground. Gauges should also be erected, to measure the flow of the main Taitam stream, as low down as possible.

32. One of the advantages of the low-level pumping scheme is that considerable level supply relief could be obtained, almost immediately. A gauge has been erected, at or near by pumping, the site No. 5. This gauge has been recorded for some time past. Taking last

season's record, it appears that at least 30 millions of gallons passed this gauge, during September last, and about half that amount in October. I am convinced, by personal inspection, that this gauge is not measuring the full flow of the stream, and, moreover, it is not sufficiently large to measure, even an ordinary flood-discharge, so that the recorded flow is considerably below the truth. If, therefore, a small re- servoir had been in existence, at site No. 5, and a steam-engine and pipe had been provided, about 45 millions of gallons could have been pumped into the Taitam tunnel, or about the stock in hand at the moment of writing this Report,

At Pokfoolum there is, at present, 70 millions of gallons storage to a gathering-ground of 416 acres, or 168,000 gallons storage per acre, whilst at Taitam there is 406 millions of gallons storage to 1,093 acres or 371,000 gallons storage per acre. Consequently, by augmenting storage at Pokfoolum, an increase of supply may be anticipated; if it be safe to assume that the proportion of available rainfall is the same in both cases. This, however, seems to be doubtful, for, according to the evidence before me, it appears that the overflow at Pokfoolum, last year, was not great.

34. There are, however, sentimental if not real objections to Pokfoolum as a Disadvan- source of supply. The crests of the hills, forming the boundary of the gathering foolum as a ground, are crowned with houses. These do not indeed drain into the gathering- source of ground, but there will always be a suspicion that filth may be washed down from them, into the reservoir. There is also more traffic, through the Pokfoolum gathering- ground, than in the case of Taitam. Lastly, the buildings of the Convent are on the immediate margin of the site of the proposed reservoir, so that there would be suspicion of contamination from them. Therefore, I consider that works at Taitam

36. In a report, dated 7th August, 1894, I discussed the disadvantages of the As to the intermittent system of supply, in any case, and I further pointed out that, in the intermittent. case of Hongkong, the well-known evils of this system were aggravated, by the fact that the distributary system was designed for a constant supply, and, therefore, houses were not provided with cisterns, ball-valves, and other appliances, essential to the proper conduct of an intermittent supply. The evils of an intermittent supply were thus summarised:-"The intermittent supply, even in its most perfect cf. cit. "*form, has a radical defect. The water must be stored, in or near the dwelling, paras. 31-32. "and is, therefore, liable to contamination, of the most serious nature. *

"In addition to this defect, which is inseparable from the intermittent system,

it presents, as carried out in Hongkong, the following disadvantages:-

(a.) The entrance of foul air, foul liquids, and possibly disease-germs,

into the public water-mains.

(b.) The growth of fungoids and corrosion in the pipes.

(c.) The undue wear and tear of the distributary system.

(d.) The difficulty of equitable distribution of water, throughout the

water-works area.

(e.) The waste of water.

(f.) The failure to provide efficient fire-service.'

These evils are fully discussed, in the subsequent pages of this report. I must, however, record my opinion that the intermittent system is, at the present moment, being carried out with great skill, and as efficiently as the existing conditions permit,

As to the times at

which the intermittent system should be applied.

Shutting off house-ser- vices as a means of restriction.

  Improved arrange- ments for giving an intermittent

supply.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL. 1902:

37. In the 41st paragraph of the said report, I stated that:-

"It seems clear that intermission should be postponed to the last moment, "and that, if it has to be adopted, then the water should be shut off for at least "15 hours a day."

In writing this, I had principally before my mind, the relatively small reduction in consumption, that intermission brings about. In paragraph 14, of the said report, it is shewn that the consumption is not reduced, in direct proportion to the hours of daily intermission. By giving a supply for half the day, only, the consumption is not reduced by one-half, but almost inappreciably. Indeed, in order to bring about a reduction of one-half, the hours of supply must be limited to three hours or one-eighth of a day. This condition exists, even now.

What I decided to emphasise was, that it was better to have a short period of severe intermission, than a long period of slight intermission. Whatever may have been my views in 1894 as to the time at which restriction of consumption, by intermission or otherwise should be introduced, subsequent events shew clearly that, if the reservoirs are not full in September, restriction should be resorted to, and continued until at least sufficient stock is accumulated, to carry on the unrestricted supply, until the end of the water-year.

38. In the 41st paragraph of the report cited, the following suggestion is made :- "Indeed, it is worthy of consideration whether, if restriction has to be adopted, the "best plan would be to shut off all house-services, leaving the people to obtain "their water from public taps, temporarily erected, if necessary, in the manner "adopted in England during frosts." I still consider that this would be the best course to pursue, especially if, at the termination of the wet season, the reservoirs were not full. Only houses provided with meters, would be allowed to retain a con- stant supply, and then a proper price for water would bring about the required economy. If this measure did not produce the desired reduction in consumption, then intermission might be resorted to. There is, however, a slight practical difficulty in shutting off all house-services, owing to the easy accessibility of the service stop- cocks. They can easily be opened again, by unauthorised persons. This, however, would be obviated by the adoption of the arrangement, which I will now describe, as a means of improving and facilitating the intermittent system of supply.

39. Inasmuch as many years must elapse before works of sufficient magni- tude, materially augmenting the general supply, can be carried out, and, there- fore, before the occasional introduction of the intermittent supply can be avoided, it is proper to consider the arrangements that can be made in order to render this system as efficient, and as little objectionable, as possible.

40. The following arrangement would greatly improve matters. At present, house-services are connected, directly, to the street mains. I suggest that subsidiary mains, wrought iron pipes, of small diameter, should be laid parallel to the principal mains ("Rider-mains"), on one or both sides of the street, thus:-

of convenient size, the water-supply to which could be turned on and off, independ- ently, and in rotation. The water could then be turned on to and shut off from "Block" a large group of blocks, in rotation. No. 1 block would receive water from 3 a.m. to 4 a.m., No. 2 from 4 to 5; and so on.

In short, the Town would be supplied just as London was, when the intermit- tent system was in force. The principal mains would always be changed, under full pressure. No pollution could enter, through open ball-hydrants-rather an important point, at the present moment especially.

41. I recommend this arrangement, not merely because it will improve and Advantages of proposed facilitate the management of an intermittent supply, and mitigate its evils, but also Block" because it will be a permanent improvement. It will facilitate the shutting-off of system. house-services, because the valves, on the rider-mains, may be so arranged, as to be practically inaccessible to unauthorised persons. Such is not the case with the house-service cocks, now in use.

It will greatly facilitate the application of the existing law, with regard to the prevention of waste. Arrangements may be made, whereby the test-meters may easily be applied, when required.

The detection of waste will also be facilitated. The Inspector need only apply the "stethescope," to one of the valves, commanding the whole block. If there be no sound of flowing water, he can pass on to another block. He need only examine, house by house, if he finds symptoms of leakage, within the given block.

Lastly, it will be most advantageous, if the streets are asphalted, or otherwise improved. The Rider-mains may be laid along the side-walks, so that if a house- service requires renewal, re-construction or repair, the street-surface need not be disturbed.

prevention-

42. The consumption of water per head per day, for all purposes, about 17 Waste gallons, is not extravagant. Nevertheless, there is ample evidence to shew that is necessity. much waste occurs in houses of every description, both European and Chinese. Indeed, I have reason to believe that, in the matter of waste and extravagance, there is little to choose, between these two classes of houses; for, after all, the taps in Euro- pean houses, are in the hands of Chinese servants.

Now, the fact must be realised that the water-supply, derivable from and within the Island of Hongkong is finite. The area of the island is small. There are not

many

available gathering-grounds or reservoir-sites remaining, especially if they are to be at a sufficient altitude to supply by gravitation. Two important gathering- grounds, or rather the water-rights appertaining thereunto-those of Quarry Bay and Aberdeen-have been granted to private individuals, and their resumption would disturb important industries. It is clear, therefore, that economy in the use of water is absolutely necessary.

waste classi-

43. Waste of water may be classified under two heads-"Negligent" and Causes of "Wanton." Negligent waste may be defined as that caused by imperfection of taps fed. and fittings, leaky taps and pipes. This may be due, either to the use of imperfect materials, in the first instance, or by neglect in maintenance and repair, or to both.

Wanton waste is almost wholly due to neglect to close taps, and also, to some extent, to extravagance in the use of water, owing to the existence of baths of unnecessary size, watering gardens and the like.

44. Negligent waste, which elsewhere as a rule, is the most important cause Prevention of excessive consumption, is to be prevented by the use of good materials and by waste. good workmanship, in the first instance, and by assiduous house-to-house inspection followed by prompt execution of repairs. As all house-service materials have been provided and fixed or approved by Government, there can be no doubt that the house-services are good, in the first instance. House-to-house inspection is

also practised, as far as the available staff will permit, so that there can be little doubt that the house-services are maintained in as good a condition, as in any other well-regulated town.

45. Though the gross consumption of water is not great, especially for a tropical town, and though there may be but little negligent waste, there is evidence to shew that there is much wanton waste. Now, inspection, no matter how perfect, is practically impotent to check wanton waste. The law may make it penal to leave a tap open, but it is usually impossible to bring the offence home to an indivi- dual, and so secure a conviction. I learn however that prosecutions have, not infrequently, led to convictions. One may, indeed, shut off the service, but to do so is to punish many, for the offence of one. The only way to check wanton waste is to measure the consumption of water, in each tenement, by means of meters, and to charge an adequate price for all water consumed, over and above a prescribed quantity.

46. It is to be regretted that the Water Ordinance of 1890 was not passed, as originally drafted. The said draft Ordinance was discussed and approved by the Sanitary Board and by the Executive Council. It contained the following clause: "(16.) The Water Authority may direct that the supply of water taken or used by "or through any service shall be measured or regulated by means of a meter or "otherwise as may be provided by any Regulations made hereunder :" thus, con- templating the general use of meters. The word "may" was probably used be- cause, at the time that the Ordinance was drafted, the water-works were not in full operation, and, therefore, it was hoped that the ordinary precautions against negli- gent waste would suffice to keep the consumption within bounds. Be this as it may, the clause in question was strongly objected to, by the Unofficial members of Council, on the ground that it would be most inconvenient to owners of house property, who would have to control their tenants, or pay for the water which the latter wasted. The Ordinance was re-drafted, I will not say amended, and passed, in the form in which it now stands. Clauses 10 to 13, inclusive, (Ordinance 16 of 1890), were inserted in lieu of the objected to clause, which permitted the general use of meters. It was hoped that these clauses would suffice to keep consumption within reasonable bounds. I venture to believe that if meters were introduced together with a proper scale of charges, the consumption of water would be so reduced, that the necessity for restriction would never recur, or at least be a rare, instead of a normal, occurrence.

47. The powers, given by Ordinance 16 of 1890, have been several times applied by Mr. COOPER, and from his various reports, it appears that in every instance a most marked reduction has been brought about by its application (vide Annual Reports of Director of Public Works.) I find, however, that of recent years, these provisions have not been enforced, partly on account of inadequate staff, partly because of the prevalence of intermittent supply, during which the system is inapplicable. The powers of the Ordinance do not appear to have ever been applied, on a comprehensive scale, but rather as an experiment to demonstrate the existence of waste.

48. The method of waste prevention, prescribed by the existing Ordinance is, to say the least, cumbrous, and somewhat difficult of application. If applied generally, a large staff of Inspectors would be required. The construction of rider-mains, as herein before described, would much facilitate the application of these clauses. The test-meters might be left in place permanently, and read occasionally, and if waste existed in any block of tenements, the supply to them might be shut off, as the law directs. The numerous test meters would, however, have to be provided. and maintained by the Government, instead of at the expense of the individual as would be the case, if the general use of meters, provided for in the Draft Ordinance, were adopted. The actual maintenance is performed by Government, but the cost. thereof is covered by the meter-rent, which covers also interest and sinking-fund.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

A very large staff would be required for examining the test-meters. The in- convenience to the consumer would be great, because the penalty for wanton waste is to discontinue the supply for a month. It would be out of the question to provide each house with a test-meter. The system must be applied by blocks or groups. It may happen that the waste takes place in one or two houses out of a large block of tenements, in which case inmates of all the houses in the block would be punished, by shutting off the supply, on account of the misdeeds of a few.

recom-

49. The general introduction of meters, in connection with every house-service, Universal would, I am convinced, be far more effective and cause less inconvenience to the meterage general public. The cost of the necessary stock of meters would be considerable, mended. but it would be an interest-bearing asset, as the meter-rent would be so fixed as to cover maintenance, interest, depreciation and sinking-fund. I therefore unhesita- tingly recommend the introduction of meters, in every case in which there is an internal house-service.

The landlord might be empowered to add meter-rent and extra water charge to any existing house-rent. He might also have the option of having the service, dis- connected if he did not care for the responsibility connected with a meter. Tenants might enter into direct agreements with Government as to payment for water and of meter-rent. I may mention that the Municipal Council of Singapore have, as I am informed, decided to introduce meters generally.

Kowloon and

water.

50. In accordance with Ordinance 19 of 1897 meters are used, in the case of Meters in all house-services in Kowloon and in the Hill District. The quantity allowed-15 in the Hill gallons per head per day-is so large, and the price, namely, twenty-five cents per Districts- 1,000 gallons, is far too small to exercise any deterrent effect. The price should be price of at least fifty cents per thousand, as recommended by a Committee of the Sanitary Board, appointed 18th April, 1890, and composed of N. J. EDE, Esquire, the late J. J. FRANCIS, K.C., and myself. I think, moreover, that it would be well to provide an ascending scale of charges, the details of which may be considered, when the meter principle is adopted or otherwise.

water supply.

51. I have inspected the Kowloon water-works and find that they have been Kowloon carried out in a thoroughly satisfactory manner. Naturally, water is a scarce com- modity in Kowloon, owing to the great increase of population, and small area of gathering-ground that was available, at the time these works were undertaken. It is satisfactory to note that the supply is holding out as well as could be expected, considering the drought that has hitherto prevailed during the current water-year.

53. It has been suggested that a supply of water, from the New Territory, could as to the be brought over to Hongkong. Such is doubtless the case, but it would certainly be obtaining a a very costly work. The area of gathering-ground, on the slopes of the hills im- water supply mediately facing Hongkong, is not great and there do not appear to be any good New Terri- reservoir sites, at the necessary elevation, on this face. Indeed, the proposed reser- voir, about to be constructed for the supply of Kowloon, is close to the ridge-line and will derive most of its water by means of catch-water drains, from the North slopes of the hills, that is to say, on the sides furthest from Kowloon. Further North again, there appears to be another available site. This will, however, necessitate a conduit nearly 20 miles long. Then, conducting the water across the harbour, by a submerged syphon, will be difficult, though by no means impossible. It will, how- ever, certainly be costly. If a bridge or tunnel be made for general communication purposes, then the problem would be simplified.

54. I do not, therefore, consider that the scheme of bringing water, across the har- bour from the New Territory, is one that should be contemplated at present, or until all the resources of the Island have been fully developed. I am, however, decidedly New Terri- of opinion that all available sources of water-supply, within the New Territory, should be carefully studied, not only as regards Hongkong, but with regard to the territory itself. When settling the land, gathering-grounds and reservoir sites should be reserved, so that they may not be found to be occupied, when they are wanted.

55. The conclusions which I have arrived at may be summarised as follows:-

(a) The works recommended by Mr. COOPER, as urgently required, have

been carried out, with good results.

Conclusion.

(b) The works suggested by Mr. COOPER, as future or deferred exten- sions, have not been constructed. In one sense this is well, for sub- sequent experience has indicated that some of the works that he proposed in 1896, would not have realised the results which he anticipated. Mr. COOPER based his calculations on but four years' observations. Now there are ten years of records to guide one. (c) I have come to the conclusion that increased storage, alone, that is with the existing gathering-grounds, will not effect any material increase in the supply. What is required is an increase of gathering- ground, with an appropriate proportion of additional storage.

(d) The must suitable site for future extension is the Taitam-tuk valley

below the present Taitam dam.

(e) The water, collected below the Taitam dam, will be at a low level and

must be pumped up, into the Taitam tunnel.

(ƒ) One great advantage is presented by the adoption of pumping, and that is that an appreciable relief may be attained, in a short time. Had pumping works existed, last September, below Taitam, at least 30 millions of gallons could have been pumped into the tunnel, during that month, and about half as much in October.

(g) The present supply is, were it properly distributed, sufficient for the wants of the existing population. There is, however, no margin for any material increase.

(h) The time has, therefore, arrived for preparing a comprehensive scheme for the ultimate and full development of the sources of supply in Hongkong, commencing with the Taitam-tuk valley.

(i) The necessity for the introduction of an intermittent supply, with all its evils, would be obviated or at least rendered much less frequent were waste and extravagance repressed.

(j) In my opinion, universal meterage is, in the present case, the only efficient and equitable means of preventing waste and extravagance. I, therefore, recommend that the law be altered to the form in which it was originally drafted, and that meters be introduced, in every case in which there is an internal service.

(k) The price of water, supplied by meter should be increased. (1) As some years must elapse before works of sufficient capacity can be constructed to obviate, entirely, the occasional necessity for an inter- mittent supply, I recommend that the arrangements be made as described for improving that system, and reducing its evils to a minimum.

.

(n) As a means of restriction, rather than to introduce intermission, it would be better to shut off all house-services, other than those provided with meter, leaving the people to obtain water from the public fountains.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, JITH APRIL, 1902.

i

(2) All water-supply statistics should, in the future, be arranged by the water-year, commencing 1st May, and not by the calendar year. (o) The project for supplying Hongkong with water from the New

Territory need not be contemplated at present.

(p) The newly acquired territory should be carefully examined as regards gathering-grounds and reservoir sites. These when settling the land should be reserved forthwith so that, when required for Hongkong, for the New Territory or Kowloon, they may not be found in occupation.

56. The Separate System of sewerage has been greatly criticised; but I have The separate never as yet seen or heard any serious and logical objection to it. Suffice it, there- fore, to say that, were I to design the sewerage works of Victoria again, I should, in all matters of principle, introduce the identical system. I have introduced the separate system, in two tropical towns, namely, Kingston, Jamaica, and Port Louis, Mauritius, and I have never had any reason to regret so doing. Works on the same principle are now well advanced at Port of Spain, Trinidad. Before these works were commenced, the Hon. WALCH WRIGHTSON, C.M.G., M. Inst. C.E., the Director of Public Works, Trinidad, was, at my suggestion, sent to Jamaica to inspect the Kingston works and make enquiry as to their working. He consulted, not only the persons in charge, but also unofficial medical practitioners, many of whom were much opposed to sewerage of any kind, and on his return, he adopted, without modification, the plans that I had prepared.

The existing stone channels, "therefore, should revert to their legitimate use, the conveyance of storm-water, "from the surface of the district, and from the hills above it." This sentence sums up in short the principles upon which the whole Sewerage System has been designed and constructed. It expresses, in a few words, the difference between the present system, and that which I suggested in 1882, by which the existing Storm- water Drains would have continued to serve as Sewers, as well as drains; an arrangement which I and, I believe, the majority of engineers, now utterly condemn.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

It is to be observed that I do not make use of the word "Separate System" in these reports. My reasons for avoiding these words were, doubtless, that it had become, even then, a powerful irritant; but more so, because it is not practicable or desirable to introduce an absolute Separate System. A great deal of dry weather surface-water, such as the washings of back-yards, is, to all intents and purposes, Sewage, and must, therefore, be admitted to the sewers. With it, some rain-water must also enter. The quantity of rain-water, thus admitted to the sewers, can, by proper arrangements, be reduced to an almost negligible quantity, so much so, that it is scarcely necessary to increase, materially, the size of the sewer-pipes to enable them to convey it, in addition to the sewage-proper.

60. I find that, in the discussion of Sewerage and Drainage matters, confusion often arises, through the-lax use of terms. People often speak of "sewers" when they mean "storm-water drains," and vice versa. Again, the word "sewage" is often taken to mean human excrement, in contradiction to domestic slop-water, which is often but erroneously supposed to be an innocuous fluid, which, excreta being excluded, may be neglected, or dealt with in some elementary manner. Whereas it is a fact that only in a limited number of diseases, do fœces and urine contain pathogenic organisms, whereas slop-water may, and often does, contain not only those found in the excreta, but also those of almost every other zymotic disease. The but too current idea that, if excreta are removed, no more need be done, is therefore, the reverse of the truth.

In recent writings, I have found it desirable to define these expressions, and to give technical meanings to the several terms, perhaps not in strict accordance with the Dictionary or with English Acts of Parliament, but in accordance with the sense in which they are to be used, in discussing the subject.

66

Sewage" means water, sullied, foul or contaminated with matter, in solution or suspension, derived from the use of water in the daily avocations of

                        man, whether it contains fœces or urine, or not.

""

"Surface water means rain-water, flowing off from the surface of the ground or from those of yards, roofs, and the like.

"Sub-soil water" is water which has been absorbed by the soil, and which is retained by, or percolating through its pores.

2

A "Sewer" is a pipe or conduit, used or intended to be used, for the reception and conveyance of Sewage as defined.

A "Street-sewer" is a sewer situated on Crown land, and which is the property

of the Crown.

A "House-sewer" is a sewer situated within a private tenement, which is the property of the owner of the tenement in question.

A "Drain or Storm-water channel" is a channel or conduit open or covered, used or intended to be used to receive and convey surface-water. Here the word drain will include a "nullah."

A "Sub-soil drain" is a channel, conduit or pipe, used or intended to be used for the reception and conveyance of sub-soil water.

The meanings of "Private drain" and "Private sub-soil drain" are obvious.

I shall use these terms throughout this report and any others that I may write, strictly in the sense of these definitions. I strongly recommend that they be used in the same sense, in all future documents. On reading over my old reports, I find that I have not always been as strict in my terminology, as is desirable. If, therefore, any are to be re-published, I should like to make the necessary corrections therein.

* According to a decision of an English Court, "Sewage" is anything which gets into a sewer. if it gets into the sewer is sewage, which is absurd.

61. The leading differences between the Sewerage Project of 1888 and that of Difference 1890 occur in the number, position and levels of the out-falls. Designing before the Reclamation works were commenced, when the fore-shore was relatively shallow, prod and irregular on plan, Mr. COOPER proposed three principal out-falls, namely, at Belcher's Point, Possession Point, and a third, near to the Bowrington Canal. Central This, however, he regarded as temporary only, and suggested the ultimate prolong- ation of this section of sewer to North Point; where a pumping-station was to be provided.

The gravitation out-falls were to be laid at about Low-water mark, Spring Tides. As, however, the new Praya was to be constructed in deep water, and with a regular alignment, along which there would be a strong tidal current, I proposed to provide five out-falls, for the Western and Central Districts, constructed in the face of the new Praya wall, sewerage being carried out into deep water. By increasing the number of out-falls, it became possible to increase the gradients of the sewers.

The out-fall levels were raised. The centre-line of the out-fall was to be fixed at mean sea level, instead of low-water-mark, Spring tides, so that the sewer would be free from tide-water, for one-half the year, instead of for a short time only as would be the case with an out-fall åt extreme low-water mark. As regards the street sewers, there is no difference, in principle, between the two projects.

This want is, doubtless, due to insufficiency of Staff, for Mr. COOPER is far too careful a man to neglect to have proper records, if he had the means of making them.

It may be safely asserted however that such is the case, in all matters of prin- ciple. Some slight alterations in detail may have been made. The whole of the out-falls and some sewers on the Reclamation have not yet been completed, on account of the non-completion of the Praya Reclamation works.

64. The proposed arrangement for the interception of the sewage of the Works Eastern District, has not been carried out.

                The sewage is admitted to the har- bour, by numerous out-falls not extending to low-water mark. The reason why District. interception was not carried out was, I believe, as follows. Then, as now, the reclamation of this fore-shore was contemplated. It was therefore considered that, if out-falls on the New Praya wall were permissible, they could also be adopted, in the case of the Eastern Reclamation, thus saving the cost of the intercepting- syphon, as well as that of pumping: at any rate, it was not thought well to attempt inter-ception, until something had been settled concerning the future of the foreshore.

As regards the street-sewers of this district, they have been executed in virtual accordance with the project of 1890.

free from obstruction or deposit. There is, however, a tendency to deposit in the flatter sewers, those running along Queen's Road, and across and along Des Voeux Road and new Praya; so much so that it is thought necessary to pass a scraper through them, periodically, as a matter of routine. Such is also the case in the sewers along Garden, Robinson and other Roads, but there the obstruction is chiefly due to the entrance of roots, generally of the Banyan tree. The only way to remedy this is either to do away with the trees, or put in cast-iron pipes. Trees in a town are a nuisance and should not be permitted. Of all trees for such purposes

the Banyan is one of the worst. The roots, of plants of the fig tribe grow with surprising rapidity, and have great power of penetration.

The occurrence of deposit in the low-level sewers is not as it should be. The gradients of the sewers in Queen's Road and Des Voeux Road are good, and there is an abundant flow of sewage through them. Those on the new Reclamation must be regarded as temporary only. Levels recently taken by Mr. XAVIER, give evidence of considerable settlement. The centre lines of the sewers, at the outlets, are materially lower than originally projected (mean sea level or 3.70 0,D,), appar- ently owing to settlement. Consequently, these sewers are tide-locked for a larger proportion of the year, than was intended, and therefore there are longer periods of stagnation than is perhaps desirable. The sewers on the Reclamation will therefore require re-construction. It does not seem desirable however to do so forthwith. It will be better to wait until the Reclamation works are not only completed, but also fully occupied by buildings; when the soil will be so far consolidated, that fur- ther movement will be improbable. For reasons which I shall give in the next paragraph, the accumulation of deposit in the low-level sewers, is a cause of expense, rather than a danger to health.

66. I have examined the deposit, which was being removed from a sewer on the Des Voeux Road, It certainly was not sewage deposit, which is a black, foetid, semi-fluid substance. It was composed of coarse sand or grit, broken glass, small bottles, bits of joss-sticks, and the like, stained black by sewage. It was moreover nearly inodorous.......... Moreover there was little smell, from the manhole. Clearly, the deposit is not due to the sewage proper, but to solid matter, which ought not to have found its way into the sewers. I am informed that the sample which I saw, was typical in character. quithen to gareni sali kad

There is also evidence to show that the scavengers occasionally open sewer- manholes and throw dry refuse into them and into the gulleys. This is aggravated by the improper construction of the gulleys, both sewer and storm-water. The scavengers also, when washing down the gutters sweep much detritus into the gulleys, which ought to have been removed by dry scavenging. It is obviously to the interest of the scavenging-contractor to dispose of as much refuse, in this way, as he can, and so to save the expense of removing it by boat, the more so, because, unlike excreta, the refuse

vers are under the control of the Public Works Department, whilst the scavenging is directed by the Medical Officer of Health. I shall revert boyhow to this matter later on. It seems certain therefore that Mr. COOPER was right in stating, as he always did that the accumulation of deposit in the low-level sewens was due to the introduction of matter which should never find its way, in any quantity, into a sewer, and which no sewer could, under the circumstance, be expected to carry off.

Mr. COOPER always held that no amount of flushing would suffice to remove Flushing such deposit as now finds its way to the sewers, and that it would accumulate, low-level whatever were the gradient of the sewers. I cannot quite agree with this opinion, for unless the deposit only comes from the immediate vicinity of the low-level sewers, a..supposition that is hardly...tenable,..then it must find its way down the higher level sewers, which have superabundant gradients, and in which no appre- ciable deposit is found.

Therefore, it is desirable to provide means of with great vigour, using sea-water for the purpose.

As to the necessity of additional flushing.

Sea-water.

  Gulleys and traps.

The total capacity, of those which are fed from the water-works, amounts to 7,718 gallons. Supose that these discharge twice a day (some usually discharge but once), then the total consumption of potable water will be 15,436 gallons a day.

The remainder are supplied from nullahs, or streams, and their joint capacity amounts to 2,566 gallons. I am decidedly of opinion that more use might be made of the water of nullahs and streams but I should be inclined to reserve it for the Drains.

70. It has been suggested that more flushing is desirable, and that sea-water might be used for this purpose. I am, however, of opinion that the Street Sewers (saving and excepting those low level sewers, already referred to) require little or no more flushing, than they get at present. It is the House Sewers that require flushing. If these are kept clean, by adequate flushing, then the street-sewers will take care of themselves; if they have proper gradients, as they certainly have, in all the upper parts of the town, I do not consider that it would be well to go to the expense of introducing a supply of sea water throughout the town, merely, to flush the Street Sewers. Chinese houses, if properly constructed, with scavenging- passages in rear, practically, have no house sewers. In European houses, the consumption of water is sufficient to keep both House and Street-Sewers clean. Of course, it would be a great improvement, if every house Chinese or otherwise was provided with a water-closet or flushing tank. To provide a complete network of distributary pipes, for salt water, all over the town, so as to reach every tenement, would be exceedingly costly. Again, there is little information as to the durability of cast and wrought-iron piping, when used in connection with sea-water. It is conceivable that some relatively costly material, such as lead or copper, might be required, for service-pipes at least. Altogether I do not consider that the advantages of intro- ducing a duplicate supply, universally, as regards House and Street Sewers, would justify the great cost of such a work. I do, however, consider that, in some cases at least, salt-water might be provided for scouring gutters and flushing storm-water drains as well as for flushing the low-level sewers. I will revert to this subject when discussing the Drainage question (Storm-water Drains and Nullahs).

71. I learn with surprise that many gulleys in the public streets, connected with the street-sewers are untrapped. I am unable to say why this omission has been made. The only explanation which I have heard, is that it was considered better to ventilate the street-sewers, through untrapped gulleys at the sides of the street, than by gratings in the manhole-covers in the centre thereof. I can, however, scarcely conceive that this was the reason. Certainly, all gulleys and other inlets to the street-sewers, ought to be trapped. I must however say that I have not noticed many nuisances from the untrapped sewer gulleys. Probably this is due to

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

the fact that the opening, from the gulley to the sewer, is greatly restricted.. The state of the weather may have some influence in this matter, for sewer air does not always ascend.

The original idea was to provide two traps, in the side-channels of the street, one (in case of junctions, two) was to have been small, and with a closely-barred grating, destined to take any dry-weather flow to the street-sewer. The second, placed lower down, was to have a large and open-barred grating, was to have been connected to the storm-water Drain, and was intended to take flood water, during heavy rain.

This arrangement has been found to present the difficulty that when the side- channels are washed down an undue amount of road detritus, vegetable matter and the like, is swept into the sewers through the Street Sewer gulley. This inconvenience has been greatly aggravated by the improper use of the gulley-gratings, that have been provided. Large open-barred gratings with sloping bars, were to have been provided solely for use in the inlets to storm-water drains. They were made large and open-barred, to admit rain-water freely. The sewer-gratings were to have been small and close-barred, so as to admit as little surface water as possible to the sewers. But I find that the Drain-gratings have often been used as Sewer-gratings.

Much dry-refuse, also, is but too often thrown into the gulleys, both of the Street Sewers and of the Drains. To remedy this evil, the Honourable the Director of Public Works has devised a special form of trapped gulley, common to both sewer and drain, trapping both. It is provided with a locked cover, so that it is inaccessible to unauthorised persons. One of these is in use at the foot of Icehouse Lane. Some minor modifications may be desirable. I am, however, of opinion that this arrangement might be tried, on a larger scale, when doubtless, some thoroughly satisfactory type will be evolved. The radical remedy for this trouble will, however, be found in an improvement of the scavenging system, a question to which I will return later on.

72. I am of opinion that more trapped sewer-gulleys are desirable, in some parts More

trapped of the town. The side-channels of the streets in many cases, are very nearly level. sewer gulleys Now the side-channels receive the effluent from down-pipes from verandahs, required. the washings of which are practically sewage. Indeed, I believe that chamber-slops are, in some cases, poured down the rain-water pipes. The effluent from the down-pipes has often a long distance to travel, before reaching a gulley, and owing to the flatness of side-channel and its small fall, stagnation results. In such cases, it would be well to provide additional gulleys, near to the foot of the down-pipe. This, moreover, would have the effect of diminishing at least, the necessity for washing the side-channels, an operation which tends to introduce into the sewer road-detritus, and other solids.

I therefore recommend that the maintenance of the Street Sewers be cleansing of entrusted to that department of the Sanitary Board, which has the control of sweat te scavenging, namely, the Medical Officer of Health. I may here state that with the Sanitary sewers, drains including nullahs, open or covered, should be included.

Ventilation

  of sewers. Vents not Ventilators required.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

I have conferred with the Medical Officer of Health on this subject, and he states that he is quite prepared to take over the administration of the street sewers as well as drains, nullahs, etc. He will not require the services of an Engineer for this purpose.

   At most, it will be only necessary to increase the number of Sanitary Foremen. The Foremen, now in charge of the Street Sewers, should be transferred, for in the absense of Record Drawings, they possess the necessary knowledge of the Sewerage System. As the Director of Public Works is a member of the Sanitary Board, he would be able to give advice upon any engineering points, that might

arise..

75. I have fully set forth my views, as to the Ventilation of Sewers, in a report of 1890; and I have little to add to what I then wrote. The main point to be remembered is that it is impracticable to establish a constant current of air in a given direction through a sewer, by means of ventilating shafts. Sewage, unless it be stagnant, evolves an inappreciable amount of gas, though it is capable of tainting a vast quantity of air. Personally, therefore, I have never been able to recognise the advantage of sewer-ventilation, in the sense of drawing a current of air through sewers, and thus contaminating more air than necessary, with sewage emanations. It always appeared to me that the best place for contaminated air, was the sewer itself. My impression is that the idea of ventilation has, to a great extent survived from the days of large combined sewers and drains, not self-cleansing, into which men have to enter, for the purpose of cleaning them. What is wanted are Vents, not Ventilators, in order to prevent an accumulation of pressure, when there is a sudden rush of sewage. Much may be done, in this direction, by connecting across the summits of sewers, by means of pipes, laid so high as to be dry.

B

Let A.B. and C.D. be two branch-sewers, flowing to some main sewer, B.D. If the heads were connected across, by a dry pipe C.A; then, supposing that there were a sudden rush of sewage down, say, A.B., the air displaced would enter B.D., rise up again through D.C., and flow through the dry pipe C.A.; to replace the air dis- placed from A.B. If the heads of a large network of sewers, are connected in this manner, there can be no prejudical accumulation of pressure. It is not essential that the connecting-pipe should be dry. It may serve as a Sewer, for the houses along its length. Thus, A.C. might flow from A. to C., but it should open into a manhole at A., at a higher level than the outlet of the sewer A.B. An inspection of the sewerage plans, shews that there are many places in which the suggested arrange- ment could be carried out, at very small cost. I am of opinion that it would be desirable so to do.

76. My views as to the necessity or otherwise for the ventilation of Street-Sewers are not, I admit, universally shared by the profession; I am not now referring to House-Sewers, where very different conditions prevail. Ventilation, by gratings, in the manholecovers, situated in the middle of the street, is certainly objectionable; though in accordance with very general practice. Ventilation, by means of un- trapped gulleys, is still more so.

J

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

 Assuming that, in accordance with common opinion, street sewers have to be ventilated, the most efficient way of so doing has to be considered. In my opinion, the best way is to make every house-sewer and ventilating-pipe a sewer- vent or ventilator, by omitting the. intercepting-trap of the house-sewers. Mr. CROOK, when I last met him, informed me that he had done so, in several cases. This system is common, indeed, almost universal, in America. Several local Autho- rities, in England, have adopted this plan, and a large number of experts are in favour of it. I have adopted it, in the case of Kingston, Jamaica, and Port Louis, Mauritius, and further, have decided to do so, in the case of Port of Spain, Trini- dad. In the two first-named places, the works have been in operation for some years, and I have heard no complaints concerning this manner of ventilation, or more properly, Venting.

 77. In the case of Hongkong, an objection may be raised to this system of Application combined House and Street Sewer ventilation, on account of the great differences of of combined level, which exist, between contiguous dwellings. The mouth of a given ventilat- of house and ing pipe will often be near to, and at the same level as, a neighbouring dwelling- to Hong-

room.

ance.

I do not, however, consider that this is an objection, of great practical import- The number of ventilating-pipes would be so great, that the nuisance, from each, would be inappreciable. It is to be remembered that sewer-air will not be continually pouring out of all and sundry ventilators, like smoke from a chimney. The air will be going down some, up others, according to wind, temperature and various other conditions. The diffusion and dilution will be so great as to prevent any appreciable nuisance.

At any rate, the nuisance will be less than that due to the untrapped gulleys or gratings in a street or lane; often narrow and surrounded by lofty houses. Again, every house-sewer of any length is, or ought to be, provided with a ventilating-pipe, which will, from time to time, emit stenches, and which, I maintain, will generally be quite as offensive as if the house-sewer were one in uninterrupted communication with the street-sewer, possibly more so, on account of inadequate flushing of the house-sewers.

 The main point to be considered is whether there are sufficient house-venti- lators, to bring about the desired end. In the case of new Chinese houses, erected ⚫ according to the laws now in force, or which, it is to be hoped, will shortly be in force, there will be practically no house-sewers. The sewage flows from the back- yards, into an open channel, in the back-lane, which discharges into a trapped-gulley, connected with the street-sewer direct. As there is no house-sewer, there is no ventilating-pipe. To carry out the idea, in such cases, it would be necessary to take power to erect ventilating pipes, against the houses, or elsewhere.

ventilation.

 78. The question of Sewer Ventilation is one of the utmost difficulty, and con- Recommend- cerning which no two authorities agree. Probably no one system is capable of stono universal application. Therefore, I recommend tentative procedure. The City of Victoria is sub-divided into several districts, each having its special outfall.

Let one district be taken in hand. Let the sewer-gulleys be trapped; using improved traps, as suggested by the Director of Public Works. Let the gratings of the manhole- covers be stopped up, and above all, let the heads of the sewers be connected-up, as described in paragraph 75, then see what happens.

If any inconvenience occurs, owing to traps being forced, or otherwise, then let arrangements be made for the provision of Vents. My opinion is that these should be numerous and small, and above all, as inconspicuous as possible. Cast- iron pipes, of from four to six inches in diameter, carried up the sides of houses, just above the roof-gable, will in most cases be best.

 A conspicuous ventilating-shaft is always assumed to vomit forth stenches, whether it does so or not. I remember a case in Malta, where a ventilating-shaft,

like a mill-chimney, was the subject of prolonged and heated correspondence, between the Admiral Superintendent, and the Sewerage Authority, the former reiterating complaints of the stenches which it emitted, and demanding that it should be raised. During the whole of this time, this ventilator was absolutely disconnected from the

sewer.

-

On account of the great differences in level, which obtain in Victoria, it may be well to divide the sundry districts into zones of equal level, by introducing properly-formed traps in the street-sewers. Each zone might be separately vented, thus preventing a great out-pouring at any one group of vents. I do not recommend that this be done, until the necessity for so doing has been established by experience. Any attempt to produce a definite current, in some fixed direction up or down, is to be deprecated. It will not succeed, on account of the wind-eddies which prevail in Hongkong. It is moreover undesirable.

79. The construction, renewal, alteration and repair of House-sewers is now supervised by the Sanitary Board, who are provided with a Sanitary Surveyor, for this

purpose. The construction is performed, only by certain contractors, licensed by the Board. No unauthorised person is allowed to do any work, in connection with house-sewers. The Architect designs the house-sewers and the plan is sub- mitted to the Sanitary Surveyor, for his approval. If the contractor for the con- struction of the house, is not one of the licensed contractors, he must arrange with one of them, to carry out this part of the work. The house-sewer contractor, finds the pipes and other appliances, obtaining them wherever he pleases. After com- pletion, but before the ground is filled in, the work is inspected and tested for water- tightness, by the Sanitary Surveyor.

80. The pipes and other materials are procured locally, and are, doubtless, the best that are at present available.

I am, however, of opinion that they are not of the pattern and quality that is now considered essential. I see pipes, apparently of Chinese make, that are not fit to be used, for any sanitary purpose, whatsoever. Speaking from memory, neither the Chinese pipes, nor those manufactured by the Aberdeen Company, are as good as they used to be.

81. The use of indifferent pipes and fittings is a serious evil. The Sanitary Surveyor, in order to get work done at all, has to pass house-sewers, constructed, not as he thinks they ought to be, but in the best way that he can get them done, under the circumstances, and with the available pipes. If crooked or deformed pipes are used, it is impossible to construct a true and accurate sewer. Then house- sewers are indeed tested, after construction, with water under pressure. If, on testing, one or more pipes prove to be leaky, then the only satisfactory plan is to take out the whole length and re-lay it. It is difficult, almost impossible to break out one pipe and replace it, with another so as to make a satisfactory job.

82. It is therefore desirable, in the interest of all concerned, including Owners and Architects, that all sewer-pipes should be tested and inspected, before they are before use. ・ used. The Contractor would then know that he is using materials with which he can make good work, and that will pass the final inspection and test provided that he lays and joints properly. Under this arrangement, much less will be left to the individual judgment of the Inspector. He will not be called upon to decide whether the work is good enough, in his opinion, or as good as can be made with the materials available, but whether it is in accordance with the general Specification, a document which should be accessible, both to Architects and to Contractors.

Tests to be applied to

83. Every Sewer-pipe should be tested with an Hydraulic Pressure, of one at sewer pipes. mosphere. Few pipes will actually burst under this pressure, this test is mainly of use for detecting cracks or porosity; of course, occasionally, a very bad pipe will burst.

in a mass of clay-puddle. To test in this manner, will occupy twenty-four hours or more, whilst, given a proper testing-press and appliances, the hydraulic test is usually effected in one or two minutes.

In addition to the hydraulic test, pipes should be callipered and examined for straightness, and no pipe deviating, more than some specified amount from the standard dimensions, must be accepted. I shall be happy to furnish, when I return to England, a copy of the Standard Specification, which has been used for some time past, for sewer-pipes manufactured for works, carried out under my direction. The standard regulations concerning house-sewer construction, though not textually applicable to Hongkong, might also be of use.

84. It is perhaps now too late to introduce the system which has been As to the adopted elsewhere, under which all pipes and appliances are imported by the Sewer- age Authority.

use.

I am of opinion, therefore, that all pipes should be inspected and tested before There would be difficulty in testing at the works of the manufacturer, as many of them are at a great distance. Probably, the best plan would be to provide a depôt, at which testing could be effected. This might be worked, on the lines of a Bonded Ware-house, contractors, stacking pipes there, and taking them away after testing as they required them. It would not be necessary that each individual contractor should take away the identical pipe that he brought in. He might merely obtain a receipt for so many approved pipes, and be entiled to draw against the

same.

To establish a Standard of Quality, it will be well to import a small con- Importation signment of pipes, bends, junctions, traps and hoppers, made to the specification, pipes, traps and of the standard pattern, which has been adopted elsewhere. I have adopted a and five-inch pipe, as the universal size for house-sewers. I am of opinion that a four- inch pipe is too small, and a six-inch too large. A five-inch house-sewer suffices for almost every class of tenement. Formerly there was difficulty in obtaining five- inch pipes. Now this is not so. Thousands have been supplied to works abroad; and numerous Local Authorities now specify five-inch house-sewers.

I have largely employed this size for street-sewers.

These repeated inspections, not merely waste the time of the Government Officers, but cause inconvenience to the owner, as they delay construction, and postpone the occupation of the tenement. If the pipes and material, were inspected and tested, before use, there is no reason why a house- sewer should not be passed, at the first inspection. Failure so to do, must be due to want of care, on the part of the contractor, for which he should suffer. I therefore recommend that a fee of $10 be paid by the contractor, to the Government, for every inspection, after the first.

cases, is to bed the ordinary sewer-pipes in lime and red earth concrete. This is not good enough. If cement were used, the cost of bedding in concrete, would be nearly if not quite equal to the extra cost of the iron pipe. Again, bedding in concrete necessitates or ought to necessitate two inspections, one before the concrete is put in, and a second after so doing to see if the pipes have been dislocated by ramming in the concrete...

88. I am glad to see that the use of cast iron is becoming more general than it and ventila- used to be, for rain-water pipes, ventilating-pipes and the like. It would be good to make the use of cast-iron compulsory for all such purposes. Cast-iron pipes offer such facilities for construction and fixing, that they will probably cost little more than stoneware pipes properly jointed and fixed.

89. In the case of House Sewers, efficient "Venting" is more necessary, than in the case of Street Sewers. Indeed I am prepared to admit, that even Ventilation, in the sense of the establishment of a current of air, or the permission of a current of air to flow through the system, is in the case of House Sewers, desirable. But the arrangements which will secure effective Venting will effect Ventilation also, if properly constructed. A house-sewer, especially that of a lofty building, must, in order to be efficiently vented, be open at both ends. If it were not, then a sudden· rush of sewage, such as the flush of a water-closet would either force or un-seal traps.

The present arrangement of House-sewer ventilation is one that is common elsewhere; though not now universal. The ventilating pipe terminates in an open outlet above the roof. At or near ground-level there is an opening, on the house side of the disconnecting-trap, called a ventilating inlet. This, here as elsewhere, quite as often serves as an outlet, and causes a nuisance. To get over this difficulty, it is common in England to use a flap-valve of talc, opening inwards, so as to close when there is a down-draft. Now in the first place this tale valve generally gets out of order; and either never opens or never shuts. It seems, however, to have escaped the notice of those who devised this arrangement that when the Talc valve is closed, on account of a down draft, the house-sewer is unventilated or un-vented, for it is open only at one end.

By abolishing the Intercepting Trap, this difficulty is obviated, another great advantage of the system of common ventilation of House and Street-sewers. If there be an intercepting trap, then the only way of properly ventilating a House- sewer efficiently, is to place the so-called inlet in some unobjectionable place, either by carrying up a pipe or otherwise.

90. The construction of house-sewers might be improved in many matters of detail, greater ease of access, for the purpose of removal of obstructions, might be given. All these arrangements are, however, fully described and figured in the Instructions for the construction of House-Sewers, a copy of which I propose to provide. I will, therefore, not pursue this subject further at present.

DRAINS, STORM-WATER CHANNELS AND NULLAHS.

91. No Drain, Surface-water Channel, or Nullah should be covered or closed in, if this can possibly be avoided. A Drain must necessarily receive some filth or garbage, which is practically sewage, or rats and other animals will die in it. The dry-weather flow through it, will be negligible, certainly insufficient to flush it efficiently; on account of the large size, necessary for conveying. storm-water. I have invariably observed that covered storm-water Drains are productive of greater nuisances than decently-constructed Sewers. Storm-water Drains should, whenever practicable, be open, so that they may be scavenged, like a If they must be covered, then they should be large enough for men to go through them, with ease.

92. The want of complete Records, again prevents me from making any definite recommendation as to the course to be adopted with regard to the Drains in Victoria and the Hill-District. There can be no doubt that the Drains now receive more filth and sewage than they ought to do. This appears to be due, partly to

defective scavenging, whereby much dirt and even excreta are thrown into the drains through the gulleys; and partly to overflows or leakages from the Street Sewers. The first evil may be cured by improved scavenging, a question which will be dealt with in a subsequent section, and the second, by more efficient inspection of Sewers. I can cite a case, in support of the latter statement, which came to my personal knowledge: On visiting one of the open storm-water Drains, which had been constructed, from my designs, in 1890, I found that a stream of unmistakable sewage was flowing down its floor. This had been evidently going on for a considerable time, unknown to the officer in charge of the sewers. On examination, it was found that a manhole of a sewer above was blocked with dry-refuse, and that the sewage was overflowing into the nullah or drain. The trap, leading to the sewer-pipe, under the floor of the drain, was also plugged up with refuse. This incident supports the recommendations which I have made, to the effect that the maintenance of Sewers and Drains should be handed over to the Sanitary Board. An Engineer and one Inspector cannot possibly inspect a spread-out town, like this City, in an efficient manner. The Board, on the other hand, have numerous Inspectors, who are continually circulating, through the town, and who therefore could not fail to detect and report such an obvious nuisance, were it their duty to do so.

At present it is not their duty, and, naturally, they confine themselves to their business.

 93. I understand that the amendment of the Drainage System has never been The whole considered, in a comprehensive manner. Probably this is due to the insufficiency drainage to of staff. Deviations and re-constructions have taken place, from time to time, and be revised. some improvement has doubtless taken place. From such plans as exist, it would appear that numerous Drains exist that are obsolete and useless; or at least could be made so, by some re-arrangement of the side-channels of the street. They were originally put in to serve as sewers, a purpose for which they are no longer required, on account of the construction of Sewers. It appears that, up to 1894, and even later, little was done to re-construct House Sewers. It was obviously impos- sible to connect an old House Sewer, one foot or more square, to a pipe. Therefore, some of the old Drain Sewers were allowed to remain, and still exist, notwithstanding the fact that they are no longer needed. I am, therefore, of opinion that the whole Drainage System should now be examined and surveyed and levels taken. This done, a comprehensive scheme of reform should be drawn up.

 94. I can, with the information available, only describe the general principles Principles which should guide the design of drains or storm-water channels.

The most important point is to keep storm or surface-water on the surface, that is in the side-channels, to the utmost extent possible. So long as side chan- nels can carry the waters of a heavy storm, no covered drain should be permitted. It would be better to risk occasional inundation, than to have the permanent nuisance of a covered drain. At any rate, the covered Drains should be reduced to a minimum length. Some covered storm-water drains must always exist, notably those which traverse the City, from South to North, bringing down rain-water, from the hills above; the covered. Nullahs, in short. These are fairly numerous, so that there should be no difficulty in bringing surface-water into them, by short lengths of covered drain. Some of the South-and North-running Drains might, in places be un- covered, even now. In cases where insanitary areas are resumed by the Crown open channels should, wherever practicable, be substituted for covered. A proper arrangement of street will permit this to be done.

These covered Nullah drains, those running down through the town have, for the greater part of their length, ample gradients and keep clear of deposit, even with the normal dry-weather flow through them. From about Queen's Road to the Praya, they have necessarily flat gradients, and their inverts, though higher than they were, are considerably below high water mark. Consequently, the dry-weather flow is

on which drains should be designed.

wholly insufficient to flush them, in the tide-locked parts, and stagnation takes place. In addition to the filth, brought down by the drain from above, some is doubtless washed in by the tide. I venture to believe that the nuisances complained of, with regard to the Drains, are due to stagnation in their flat parts; and I am convinced that many nuisances, attributed to the Sewers, are really due to the Drains. From time to time, up-currents occur and stenches issue from the open mouths of these drains, or from the untrapped storm-water gulleys, leading to them. To prevent up-cur- rents of air, tide-flaps were formed, tried and failed. I believe that they were wrecked during typhoons.

To flush the lower, flatter and tide-locked parts of the drains, a perfect tor- rent of water would be required; far more than could ever be afforded by any water-works. It may even be impracticable to supply a sufficiency of salt-water for this purpose. It would be somewhat dangerous to trap the mouths of the drains, with cast-iron plates dipping below low-water level. An obstruction might be caused, which might bring about the bursting of the drain, during a rain-storm.. This actually happened in 1889.

I am free to admit that both the flushing of the lower part of the existing Drains and their ventilation throughout, are problems of the greatest difficulty.

It seems, therefore, that the best programme, for present adoption, may be summed up as follows:-

(a) Abolish all unnecessary Drains, and reduce the lengths of

                   any that cannot be dispensed with, to a minimum. Whenever practicable, open any Drains that are at present covered. By careful scavenging and management of the Sewers, minimise the amount of filth that finds its way to the storm-water Drains.

7) Flush the branch Drains with the water of the streams above. When a complete plan of the Drains is before me, I shall be glad to further consider this difficult subject.*

95. I recommend that the maintenance of all sewers, drains, storm-water chan- nels and nullahs, covered or open, be handed over to that Department of the Sanitary Board, which is charged with street scavenging and cleansing, namely, to the Depart- ment of the Medical Officer of Health. By "maintenance." I mean scavenging, cleansing, flushing, removal of obstructions and all operations, which do not involve breaking up the surface. New works should be carried out, as heretofore by the Public Works Department, and then handed over to the Sanitary Board. There would then be no division of authority. If a Sewer or Drain were obstructed, then at least, the responsible person would be known. The Medical Officer of Health now commands the services of a humerous and well organised scavengers' staff. The Public Works Department has one Engineer, two European and three Chinese foremen, to supervise the City of Victoria, the Peak, Aberdeen, Shauki- wan, and the whole of the Kowloon Peninsula, an absurdly inadequate staff.

The Medical Officer of Health-I speak after conference with him-would hardly require any addition to his staff, other than the transference of the Overseers and Foremen, now in charge of the Sewers and Drains.

To carry this arrangement into effect, he must be provided with correct record- drawings of the existing Sewers and Drains. He should, moreover, have the services of a Chinese or Eurasian draftsman to keep the plans up to date.

The existence of such plans is absolutely essential to the

                        proper administration of the Sewerage and Drainage works, whatever be the nature and constitution of the Authority to whom they are entrusted.

SCAVENGING AND REMOVAL OF EXCRETA.

of scaveng-

96. The Scavenging of the City is carried on, under the direct supervision of Organization the Medical Officer of Health, and is now performed in a far more complete and ing depart- efficient manner, than in times past. Formerly there were Depôts for dry-refuse, ment. scattered about the town, in rather insufficient numbers. Householders were supposed to cause their dry-refuse to be conveyed to these depôts, which were, from time to time, emptied by a Contractor who removed the rubbish in boats. As the distances to the Depôts were, in many cases, great, the inhabitants, not unnaturally, did not do so completely, but either stored it in back-yards, stuffed it down the sewers, or got rid of it, in some irregular manner. As the dry-refuse is worthless, the Contractor had no interest in seeing that the rubbish was fully collected and removed. The less refuse collected, the better was it for him.

The City is now devided into ten Districts. Every two Districts are pre- sided over by a Senior Sanitary Inspector. Under him, again, in each several District, there is a European Sanitary Inspector, as well as a Portuguese or Indian Foreman. The Contractor merely furnishes baskets, brooms, and gangs of labour- ers, with Chinese Foremen, who work under the direction of the aforesaid Inspectors, who, again, are under the supervision of the Medical Officer of Health.

The Contractor also provides junks, of approved pattern, with which he removes the rubbish and throws it into the sea, at specified places. The Con- tractor is responsible that no refuse is thrown into the harbour, and if this takes place, he has to pay the cost of dredging out any accumulation, near to the stations of the receiving-junks. The whole system appears to work well. The only defect seems to be that, despite the stringent provisions of the contract to the contrary, too much dry-refuse finds its way into the Drains and Sewers. I suspect that this is due to want of care in completely removing the dry refuse, before wash- ing down the side-channels in the streets. This evil is undoubtedly aggravated by the improper construction of the gulleys. The gulleys are now cleansed by the scavengers. I believe that, when the scavenging of the Sewers and Drains is under the Scavenging Authority, more care will be taken, by all concerned to prevent matter from entering which will have to be removed by the same Authority, or rather by the Contractor under him.

·

97. Removal of excreta is now performed by an independent Contractor; who Removal of pays the sum of $73,000 annually, with respect to the manurial value of the excreta. excreta. It is to his interest, therefore, to remove as much as he can, provided that it is worth carrying. As heretofore, no doubt some excreta, too dilute to be worth carrying, such as the washings of the pots, finds its way to the sewers.

                               As long as it goes to the Sewers, and not to the Drains no harm will result. It will only necessitate a little additional care in the cleansing and washing-out of gulleys.

I have no hesitation in stating, that as regards overcrowding, the present con- Comparison ditions of Victoria are, generally, rather worse than better, than they were in 1882. state with As regards cubic capacity, per individual, they are about the same; but, as regards ground-area, the conditions are worse, owing to the great number of lofty houses that have been built, during the past twenty years; or less. Many of the old rookeries, the centre of the town exist, in a state little different to that which I described in 1882. Even the new buildings on the Praya Reclamation are, as regards construction, scarcely less insanitary than the old. I do not propose here to go into details, with regard to house-construction and overcrowding. This matter has received the attention of Professor SIMPSON, and he will no doubt deal with it in his final report; and I know that my views and his, are in complete agreement,

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 14TH APRIL, 1902.

In this matter, the recommendations, made from time to time, during the past twenty years by the Professional Advisers of Government have been practically set aside. The reason for this is simple. If the number of people, which can be packed on a given plot of ground is reduced by limiting height, and by reserving open spaces, obviously the value of that plot, is reduced also. Now land is costly in Hongkong, either it has to be excavated in the hill-side, or reclaimed from the sea. Naturally, the land-owner desires to get the best rental for his land, by crowding as many tenants upon it as possible. Consequently, during the past twenty years, numerous Building Ordinances, drawn up by the Professional Advisers of the Government, have been brought before the Legislative Council, but in each case, many salutary provisions have been withdrawn or emasculated at the request of the Unofficial Members of Council, representing the landed interest. The Government has hesitated to use its official majority. Since the outbreak of plague, the mercantile section of the community have realised that their interests are not quite independent of the health of the Chinese population. Commerce is disturbed by quarantine in other ports and otherwise. Hence the Petition, which was sent to the Secretary of State for the Colonies.

The Commercial and Land-owning interests are opposed. The former desire freedom from epidemic or pandemic disease. The latter, the majority of whom are Chinese, and not British subjects, desire to get the greatest possible rents, which connotes overcrowding and insanitary dwellings. The two objects are absolutely 'incompatible, one or other must go to the wall. Which is to yield, the European who founded the Colony, or the Chinese who comes to it for his own purposes?

99. One thing is certain, and that is so long as dwellings are overcrowded and insanitary, no amount of external sanitation will give immunity from epidemics of disease. The water-supply, sewerage, drainage, scavenging-all may be perfect, but there will be no complete security, so long as dwellings are over-crowded and filthy. Vigorous measures, such as those now enforced by the Sanitary Board, will no doubt mend matters and tend to prevent an epidemic, but they cannot be depended upon to prevent one certainly and entirely.

·

<

The Government in short have to face the problem, which is still awaiting complete solution elsewhere; namely the housing of the working classes. In London and other towns, it is found almost impossible, on account of the high price. of land, to buy up insanitary properties and replace them with proper dwellings at a remunerative price. That is to say, it is not, as a rule, practicable to buy up insanitary areas, and rebuild the dwellings, so that they can be let at a rent that the displaced population can pay; and at the same time pay interest and sinking-fund, on the capital expended, in purchase and reconstruction. So much is this the case, that many hold the opinion that full value, computed upon rack- rental, and with consideration for compulsory sale, should not be paid, in the case of insanitary building. I am further of opinion that nothing short of the general resumption of insanitary tenements, and their entire re-construction, will bring about any thorough improvement in the sanitary condition of Hongkong. Unless some drastic legislation be adopted, limiting the purchasing price, resumption and reconstruction will prove unremunerative and the loss will have to be paid for by some one. Is the loss to be borne by the community at large, or by the owners of the insanitary property, or how is it to be proportioned? The Housing of the Working Classes Act, 1890, lays down precise instructions, as to the valuation of insanitary property, and enjoins that deductions be made with respect to its improper use or condition. It further enjoins that the usual allowance of 10 per cent. for compul- sory purchase, shall not be added.

100. The resumption of Taipingshan affords an example of the non-remunera- shan. tive character of insanitary districts, under existing conditions, as to the purchase of property. The greater part of Taipingshan is still vacant. There are on it only a

few dwellings, by no means too sanitary in character. The non-occupation of this district is, I understand, due to the fact that the Government cannot find tenants who are prepared to pay the price per square foot that the Government paid for this district. It is said that the tenants are not forthcoming because of the very moderate, I may say insufficient, restrictions as to height and open space that the existing law requires.

591

tion of Tai-

101. It seems to be undesirable that so valuable a site as Taipingshan, should Re-occupa- remain so long unoccupied. It is of course out of the question to allow buildings pingshan. of the old and insanitary type to be erected thereon. Rather than allow it to be unoccupied, it would be better to build sanitary buildings and let them for what they would fetch. It has however been suggested to me that Taipingshan affords an excellent site for much-needed public buildings. It would, I am informed, be the best possible place for the Proposed Medical School, owing to its propinquity to the Civil Hospital, the Alice Hospital and the Tung-Wa Hospital.

Again, it would be an excellent spot for some dwellings of the subordinate staff of Government officials. These persons now have the greatest difficulty in obtaining quarters, at rents that they can afford to pay, that are consistent with decency, self-respect and health. Having had some experience in selecting subordi- nate officers for Hongkong and elsewhere, I am prepared to say that I feel certain that competent well-conducted men cannot be obtained far less retained for the salaries now offered, as long as house-rent and living is as costly as it is. If good quarters were. provided, similar to Married Sergeants' quarters, it would greatly facilitate matters. One of the first questions asked by candidates is whether quarters are provided, and what is the cost of living. If I could assure them that free quarters are provided, and describe their character, I could often secure the services of competent men. who now refuse to accept employment.

of staff.

102. Most of the defects which I have described are due to the insufficiency of Insufficiency the Public Works staff and to repeated changes which take place there. Much diffi- culty has been experienced in the preparation of this report, by the absence of proper record-drawings and surveys. I am sure that none of the Engineers, who have held the post of Director of Public Works, failed to appreciate the necessity for proper surveys and records, and the fact that they are wanting is, to my mind, proof positive that the Department has for years past been undermanned. I have, however, expressed my opinion fully on this matter in another place. I shall hope to make some further suggestions on this point in a special report.

103. The following is a brief resumé of the conclusions which I have arrived Summary. at, with regard to sewerage, drainage, scavenging and house-construction :- *

(") The Sewerage System has been carried out, in general accordance with

the principles laid down by myself in 1890.

(4) The entrance of improper solids into the sewers is principally due to two causes-want of care in scavenging, and improper construction of the sewer-gulleys.

(e) Sewer-gulleys ought to be trapped, and provided with close-barred

gratings.

(ƒ) Flushing is sufficient in the upper and steeper parts of the Sewerage

system.

(k) To avoid division of authority, bringing about to some extent the evils described under (~), it is desirable that the maintenance, that is, cleansing and flushing of the Sewerage System and Drainage System: be transferred from the Public Works Department, which has a miserably insufficient staff, to that department of the Sanitary Board, which has the supervision of the scavenging (the Medical Officer of Health.) Under the expression Drain I mean and include all storm- water channels and nullahs whether covered or open, within the urban area.

C.O.D. 186/98.

6th October, No. 285.

November, 1898. C.S.O. 2812.

On this date and referring to previous correspondence, the Governor reported to the Secretary of State (No. 78) the Legislative Council's unanimous resolution of 28th February, that the new Law Courts and accessory offices should be erected on reclamation plot 2 in front of the City Hall and that the site of the present General Post Office and Supreme Court be reserved for erection of a new General Post Office which should also afford accommodation for such other Government Offices as might be decided on. The Governor proposed :

(a) preparation of designs for the new Law Courts and accessory offices by the Consulting Architects, and on their receipt to prepare estimates locally and invite tenders; and

(b) that plans for the new G. P. O. be prepared locally.

He proceeded to refer to D. P. W.'s (Mr. ORMSBY'S) preliminary views as to which offices could be accommodated with the G. P. O. He stated that an esti- mate for a three storied building on the present G. P. O. and Supreme Court site was put at $130,000. The Governor then went into the question of the Colony's ability to meet the expenditure involved, and hoped that the Secretary of State would be satisfied on that head and approve of the proposals. A report of the proceedings in Legislative Council and report by the Director of Public Works, also papers on the financial side of the question were enclosed.

On 22nd July, 1898, the Secretary of State, in reply to the Governor's despatch No. 78 of 18th March, 1898, approved of the preparation of plans locally for the new Post Office and other offices, but asked for further information as to the financial ability of the Colony to meet the expenditure involved in view of the effect on the revenue from Land Sales of the decision to limit the terms of Crown Leases.

The Governor reported to the Secretary of State as regards the financial ques- tion that he did not think the revenue from Land Sales would be seriously affected. On the discussion of the plans of the new Supreme Court, Mr. MAY suggested putting the G. P. O. on the ground floor and Supreme Court above, thereby releas- ing the valuable site of the present G. P. O., but the Director of Public Works advanced objections and the Governor decided not to re-open the matter.

On 23rd November, the Director of Public Works submitted a proposal that the Government should exchange the site of the present G. P. O., etc., with Messrs. JARDINE, MATHESON & Co., for a site occupied by their offices in front of the present building at the corner of Des Voeux Road and Pedder's Street, and the Government welcomed the suggestion as providing a solution of this trouble- some matter, but the negotiations fell through, and it remained, therefore, to face the question of re-erecting the G. P. O on its present site which involved the necessity 'of finding temporary accommodation.

594

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902.

   The Executive Council advised the erection of a three-storied building on the present site of the G. P. O. and Law Courts to accommodate a new G. P. O., Treasury, Local Auditor's Office, Registrar General's Office, Education Depart- ment and Sanitary Board Office, and that competitive designs be invited locally. Thereupon the Director of Public Works formulated particulars and conditions and suggested raising the estimate to $175,000. The matter, however, remained in abeyance owing to the impossibility of finding temporary accommodation aud until the new Supreme Court came to be completed.

In September, 1901, the matter took a fresh start when the Colonial Secretary 27th September, 1891.

(C.S.O. 2921/01.) (Mr. STEWART LOCKHART) proposed the reclamation in front of Messrs. JARDINE, MATHESON & Co., on the Praya, as a site. The Director of Public Works was all in favour of this site as being the most convenient position possible, near present building so still central, and near the principal landing place. The new proposal came before Executive Council on 17th October, 1901, and it advised submitting the matter to the Secretary of State. This course was followed on 9th January, 1902, in a despatch No. 9 which reviewed the intricate history of the question which first came up in 1894, explained the many advantages of the proposed Praya site over all others, which advantages were held to fully compensate the Government for the additional cost involved. A telegraphic reply was asked for as Messrs. JARDINE, MATHESON & Co. were only willing to allow the Government the refusal of the offer of the land for two months. It was suggested that Sir H. A. BLAKE be consulted.

15th February, 1902.

On this date the Secretary of State telegraphed approval, and on the 22nd February, the Officer Administering the Government proposed to take over the 22nd February, 1902. land forthwith and to invite competitive designs locally as the staff of the Public Works Department was not sufficient to undertake the work and as delay ought to be avoided.

The Secretary of State replied that this might be done.

The Government by letter formally accepted. Messrs. JARDINE, MAtheson's offer.

Steps are now being taken to settle definitely the exact amount of accom- modation required by the various offices to be housed in the building to be erected, and the Director of Public Works is preparing the necessary notices inviting com- petitive designs.

SIR,

GOVERNMENT House, HONGKONG, 9th January, 1902.

   I have the honour to inform you that, for some time past, this Government has had under its consideration a new scheme in connection with the proposed new Post Office, and as the scheme has now been fully matured, I have to submit it for your consideration.

   2. The proposal which has hitherto been kept in view, but in connection with which no action has been taken, is that the new Post Office should be built on the site of the present Law Courts. The new proposal, which appears to me to have many advantages over the old, is to erect the Post Office on the reclamation in front of the Offices of Messrs. JARDINE, MATHESON AND COMPANY. This will ne- cessitate the purchase of an expensive site, but, on the other hand, the Government will have as an asset the valuable site upon which the present Post Office and Law Courts now stand..

3. Before laying before you the details of the new scheme, I will recapitulate the somewhat intricate history of the reports and negotiations which have led to its adoption, and in order to elucidate my remarks, I attach a small plan of the City on which are indicated all the various sites which have been selected or considered suitable for the new Post Office, and which are now abandoned in favour of that which I have mentioned.

4. The matter was first dealt with by the Committee appointed by Sir WIL- in report, dated November, 1896, that the Post Office should be erected on a site on the Reclamation. From the Appendix to the report, specifying the conditions of competition subject to which it was proposed to invite designs from Architects, it will be seen that the site, which I have marked "A" on the accompanying plan, was the one selected.

LIAM ROBINSON in 1894, which recommended G

5. Subsequently Messrs. ASTON WEBB and INGRESS BELL, who were appointed Architects for the new Law Courts, selected site "A" as the most suitable for the Courts and recommended that the Post Office should be erected on site "B".

6. This recommendation was referred by His Excellency the Governor to the Public Works Committee, which decided that the existing site marked "C" on plan, was moré central and suitable for the purpose than site "B" and would afford the desired accommodation if the area at present occupied by the Courts were added to it.

7. The Committee's proposal, though good in many respects, is open to serious objections, the principal being that excessive delay and inconvenience would be caused in the carrying out of the work.

8. To explain this, I must emphasize the fact that the new Post Office was to embrace the sites of the present Post Office and Supreme Court, and that, at the present time, practically half the ground floor of the Supreme Court is oc- cupied by the Post Office.

9. It will, therefore, be seen that before the construction of a new Post Office can be begun on the existing site, both the Courts and the Post Office must be removed.

""

10. The removal of the former to the building to be erected upon site "A will not take place before 1905 at the earliest, nor will its removal render possible the commencement of the new Post Office for the reason mentioned in paragraph S.

11. It follows, therefore, that, in order to admit of the new Post Office being begun within a reasonable period of time, both the Courts and Post Office (includ- ing the Treasury) must be removed to temporary premises. The idea of procuring suitable accommodation otherwise than by erecting temporary buildings must be dismissed because investigations have shown that no suitable buildings are avail- able.

12. Putting aside the inconvenience and expense which would be caused by the erection of temporary buildings, there is the serious risk attached to such a proposal of a fire occurring which might involve irreparable loss.

13. The only other important objection to the proposal is that all Mails arrive or are despatched by steamer and consequently the disadvantages of a Post Office which does not front on the Harbour are very great.

14. Having thus dealt with the sites hitherto recommended, I will now turn to the one (marked "D" on plan) which has recently been put forward.

15. The advantages possessed by this site are undoubtedly great, and it will be observed that its distance from the present Post Office is so inconsiderable that it may be disregarded. They are as follows:-

(1.) It is on the Harbour Front.

(2.) It is adjacent to the principal landing place of the City-Blake Pier.

596

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH APRIL, 1902,

3.) It is on the route of the proposed Tramways.

(4.) It is surrounded on 3 sides by main streets all of which are 75 feet

in width.

(5.) It

possesses the further advantage that no interference will be caused with the working of the Office, which can continue to occupy the present building until the new one has been completed.

16. The only disadvantages it possesses are that the land must be purchased from its present owner and that the cost of the foundations will be greater on this site than on the present one.

 17. With regard to these disadvantages, I have ascertained from Messrs. Jardine, MatheSON & Co. that Sir ROBERT JARDINE is prepared to sell the area, which comprises 25,414 square feet, at $20 per square foot, or at a total cost of $508,280.

18. As the site of the existing Post Office, Courts, &c., would be rendered available for sale by the transfer to site " D," the Colony would be recouped for this outlay.

19. After providing for the construction of a public street in order to develop the land, for the purpose of which a certain area of private property must be ac- quired, there will remain an area of 38,942 square feet for sale, the value of which is estimated at $629,328. From this must be deducted the cost of resuming the area just mentioned, which is estimated at $80,000, leaving the net return from the sale of the land $549,323.

20. With regard to the extra cost of the foundations, this may be taken at about $60,000, as an offset against which there is the avoidance of the cost of temporary buildings and of the dislocation of the work which must inevitably result from attempting to utilize the existing site.

21. It will, therefore, be seen that the advantages of adopting the new site are very great and may be regarded as fully compensating for the additional cost which would be involved in carrying out the proposal. ·

22. In submitting the above scheme for your consideration, I have the honour. to request that you will inform me of your decision in the matter as soon as pos- sible by telegraph, as Messrs. JARDINE, MATHESON & Co. have intimated in the letter, of which I enclose a coyy, that they will allow the Government to have the refusal of their offer for only two months, and that they desire to be in- formed as promptly as possible of its acceptance or decline.

23. As Sir HENRY BLAKE is fully acquainted with the details of the scheme, I have the honour to suggest that you should apply to him for any information or explanation you require during his absence in England.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble Servant,

W. J. GASCOIgne,

Major-General,

Administering the Government.

CIRCULAR.(2)

SIR,

DOWNING STREET,

28th February, 1902.

I have the honour to transmit to you, for your information, a copy of a Parliamentary paper containing an Agreement between Great Britain and Japan, which was signed at London on the 30th of January, 1902.

I have the honour to be,

The Officer Administering the Government of

HONGKONG.

Sir,

Your most obedient, humble Servant,

J. CHAMBERLAIN,

Despatch to His Majesty's Minister at Tôkiô forwarding Agreement between Great

Britain and Japan of January 30, 1902.

The Marquess of Lansdowne to Sir C. MacDonald.

Sir,

Foreign Office, January 30, 1902.

   I HAVE signed to-day, with the Japanese Minister, an Agreement between Great Britain and Japan, of which a copy is inclosed in this despatch.

   This Agreement may be regarded as the outcome of the events which have taken place during the last two years in the Far East, and of the part taken by Great Britain and Japan in dealing with them.

   Throughout the troubles and complications which arose in China consequent upon the Boxer outbreak and the attack upon the Peking Legations, the two Powers have been in close and uninterrupted communication, and have been actuated by similar views.

   We have each of us desired that the integrity and independence of the Chinese Empire should be preserved, that there should be no disturbance of the territorial status quo either in China or in the adjoining regions, that all nations should, within those regions, as well as within the limits of the Chi- nese Empire, be afforded equal opportunities for the development of their commerce and industry, and that peace should not only be restored, but should, for the future, be maintained.

From the frequent exchanges of views which have taken place between the two Governments, and from the discovery that their Far Eastern policy was identical, it has resulted that each side has expressed the desire that their common policy should find expression in an international contract of binding validity.

   We have thought it desirable to record in the Preamble of that instrument the main objects of our common policy in the Far East to which I have already referred, and in the first Article we join in entirely disclaiming any aggressive tendencies either in China or Corea. We have, however, thought it necessary also to place on record the view entertained by both the High Contracting Parties, that should their interests as above described be endangered, it will be admissible for either of them to take such measures as may be indispensable in order to safeguard those interests, and words have been added which will render it clear that such precautionary measures might become necessary and might be legi- timately taken, not only in the case of aggressive action of an actual attack by some other Power, but in the event of disturbances arising of a character to necessitate the intervention of either of the High Contracting Parties for the protection of the lives and property of its subjects.

:

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 18TH APRIL, 1902.

613

The principal obligations undertaken mutually by the High Contracting Parties are those of maintaining a strict neutrality in the event of either of them becoming involved in war, and of coming to one another's assistance in the event of either of them being confronted by the opposition of more than one hostile Power. Under the remaining provisions of the Agreement, the High Contracting Parties undertake that neither of them will, without consultation with the other, enter into separate arrangements with another Power to the prejudice of the interest described in the Agreement, and that whenever those interests are in jeopardy they will communicate with one another fully and frankly.

The concluding Article has reference to the duration of the Agreement which, after five years, is terminable by either of the High Contracting Parties at one year's notice.

His Majesty's Government have been largely influenced in their decision to enter into this import- ant contract by the conviction that it contains no provisions which can be regarded as an indication of aggressive or self-seeking tendencies in the regions to which it applies. It has been concluded purely as a measure of precaution, to be invoked, should occasion arise, in the defence of important British interests. It in no way threatens the present position or the legitimate interests of other Powers. On the contrary, that part of it which renders either of the High Contracting Parties liable to be called upon by the other for assistance can operate only when one of the allies has found himself obliged to go to war in defence of interests which are common to both, when the circumstances in which he has taken this step are such as to establish that the quarrel has not been of his own seeking, and when, being engaged in his own defence, he finds himself threatened, not by a single Power, but by a hostile coalition.

His Majesty's Government trust that the Agreement may be found of mutual advantage to the two countries, that it will make for the preservation of peace, and that, should peace unfortunately be broken, it will have the effect of restricting the area of hostilities.

I am, &c.,

(Signed)

LANSDOWNE.

Inclosure.

Agreement between Great Britain and Japan, signed at London, January 30, 1902.

     THE Governments of Great Britain and Japan, actuated solely by a desire to maintain the status quo and general peace in the extreme East, being moreover specially interested in maintaining the inde- pendence and territorial integrity of the Empire of China and the Empire of Corea, and in securing equal opportunities in those countries for the commerce and industry of all nations, hereby agree as follows:-

ARTICLE I.

The High Contracting Parties having mutually recognized the independence of China and of Corea, declare themselves to be entirely uninfluenced by any aggressive tendencies in either country. Having in view, however, their special interests, of which those of Great Britain relate principally to China, while Japan, in addition to the interests which she possesses in China, is interested in a peculiar degree politically, as well as commercially and industrially, in Corea, the High Contracting Parties recognize that it will be admissible for either of them to take such measures as may be indispensable in order to safeguard those interests if threatened either by the aggressive action of any other Power, or by dis- turbances arising in China or Corea, and necessitating the intervention of either of the High Contracting Parties for the protection of the lives and property of its subjects.

ARTICLE II.

If either Great Britain or Japan, in the defence of their respective interests as above described, should become involved in war with another Power, the other High Contracting Party will maintain a strict neutrality, and use its efforts to prevent other Powers from joining in hostilities against its ally.

ARTICLE III.

If in the above event any other Power or Powers should join in hostilities against that ally, the other High Contracting Party will come to its assistance and will conduct the war in common, and make peace in mutual agreement with it.

ARTICLE IV.

The High Contracting Parties agree that neither of them will, without consulting the other, enter into separate arrangements with other Power to the prejudice of the interests above described.

ARTICLE V.

Whenever, in the opinion of either Great Britain or Japan, the above-mentioned interests are in jeopardy, the two Governments will communicate with one another fully and frankly.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 18TH APRIL, 1902.

ARTICLE VI.

   The present Agreement shall come into effect immediately after the date of its signature, and remain in force for five years from that date.

   In case neither of the High Contracting Parties should have notified twelve months before the expiration of the said five years the intention of terminating it, it shall remain binding until the expi-. ration of one year from the day on which either of the High Contracting Parties shall have denounced it. But if, when the date fixed for its expiration arrives, either ally is actually engaged in war, the alliance shall, ipso facto, continue until peace is concluded.

   In faith whereof the Undersigned, duly authorized by their respective Governments, have signed this Agreement, and have affixed thereto their seals.

Of Foreign Ocean-going tonnage, 2,637,552 tons entered and 2,609,902 tons cleared.

Of Foreign River Steamers, 48,545 tons entered and 49,503 tons cleared, making a grand total of Foreign tonnage of 5,345,430 tons entering and clearing.

Of Steam launches trading to ports outside the Colony, 82,564 tons entered and 82,564 tons cleared.

   4. For vessels under the British flag there appears from this table a startling decrease of 796 ships, but, taking from this the decrease of 781 river steamers, and 29 sailing vessels as described below, the result is a net increase of 14 ocean steamers. In tonnage, British shipping shows an increase of 58,441 tons; but if the decrease in river steamer and sailing ship tonnage of 113,193 tons and 69,876 tons respectively be taken into the calculation, this increase will amount to 241,599 tons in ocean-going

steam tonnage.

   The decrease above referred to in river steamers may be explained as follows:-Four British river steamers (2 West River, 2 Canton) which ran in 1900; have not done so in 1901. During the former year they entered and cleared 949 times with a collective tonnage of 136,692 tons. Against this must be put 109 river steamers of 22,790 tons, which ran in 1901 and not in 1900. This leaves 59 river steamers of 709 tons to be accounted for, and this is explained by the fact that the larger river steamers have run fewer trips, and the smaller ones more trips.

It may here be mentioned that three coasting steamers were employed during part of the year as transports (transports are not included in this table). If we compare their figures for 1901 with those of 1900, it is found that, in consequence of their being so employed, they entered and cleared Certain other steamers 73 times less in the latter year with a tonnage diminished by 71,173 tons. not coasters, have also been taken off the run, as transports, and it is but a natural presumption that, had they not been so, their visits would have assisted to swell the figures of British shipping.

This will help to account for the small net annual increase in British ocean-going steamers. For vessels under Foreign flags, there is shewn an increase in both number and tonnage, viz., ships of 478,533 tons. This is to be explained as follows:-

663

(I.) Foreign river steamers have increased by 405 ships of 81,476 tons, owing to three vessels having started running this year, viz., I French, 1 Portuguese, and 1 Chinese. (II.) Several small ocean-going vessels of German and French nationality (including some junks under French colours which were for a short time treated as French ships) have come on the run during the year.

(III.) Ocean steamers on the Home run continue to increase in size.

One Corean steamer visited the port for trading purposes during the year, the first on record.

5. The actual number of ships of European construction (exclusive of river steamers and steam

launches) entering the port during 1901 was 682, being 337 British and 345 Foreign.

These 682 vessels entered 3,570 times, and gave a total tonnage of 5,555,332 tons.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 18TH APRIL, 1902.

617

Thus, compared with 1900, 27 less vessels entered 130 more times and gave a total tonnage increased by 288,310 tons.

TRADE.

7. The information under this heading is still less accurate than it might be if greater assistance was given by those from whom the particulars are obtained, and who alone are in a position to afford it. The following returns must, therefore, be received with due allowance for this apparent indifference

to accuracy.

The principal features to be remarked in the reported trade of the Port for the year 1901 are:-

(i.) A decrease in the Coal imports of 12.3 %. (ii.) A decrease in the Cotton imports of 27.8%. (iii.) A decrease in the Rice imports of 8%. (iv.) A decrease in the Timber imports of 18.7%

(v.) A decrease in the Hemp imports of 42.3 %.

(vi.) An increase in the General imports of 9.8%.

(vii.) Also small increases in case and bulk Kerosine and in Liquid Fuel.

The net decrease in import cargo is 123,335 tons or 3.4%.

In exports there appears to be an increase of 150,823 tons or 7.7 %.

In transit cargo, a decrease of 9,163 tons or 10.4%.

8. The total reported import trade of the Port for 1901 amounts to 24,687 vessels of 9,014,955 tons, carrying 6,347,285 tons of cargo, of which 4,212,700 tons were discharged at Hongkong. This does not include number, tonnage, or cargo of Local Trade junks.

STEAM LAUNCHES.

$251,597.39

   12. On the 31st December, there were 255 steam launches employed in the Harbour; of these, 122 were licensed for the conveyance of passengers, 110 were privately owned, 17 were the property of the Colonial Government, and 6 belonged to the Imperial Government in charge of the Military Authorities.

Two Masters' Certificates were suspended for three months, three for two months, two for one month, and ten Masters were cautioned, one Master and one Engineer's Certificates were cancelled.

   Four hundred and ninety-two (492) engagements, and four hundred and thirty-five (435) dis- charges of masters and engineers were made from 1st February to 31st December.

   Twelve steam launches were permitted to carry arins, &c., for their protection against pirates; of these, three were previously permitted and nine during this year.

EMIGRATION.

   13. Sixty-nine thousand seven hundred and seventy-four (69,774) Emigrants left Hongkong for various places during the year; of these, 44,855 were carried by British ships and 24,919 by Foreign ships; 129,030 were reported as having been brought to Hongkong from places to which they had emigrated, and of these, 95,454 were brought in British ships and 33,576 by Foreign ships.

MARINE COURTS.

(Under Section 13 of Ordinance No. 26 of 1891.)

17. The following Court has been held during the year :---`

On the 24th December, enquiry respecting certain charges of misconduct brought by the Master against HARRY GORDON HARBORD, Mate of the British Barque " Vale of Doon," Official No. 63,211, of Hongkong. The Mate's Certificate of Competency was suspended for six months.

SUNDAY CARGO-WORKING.

(Ordinance No. 6 of 1891.)

    18. During the year, 439 permits were issued under the provisions of the Ordinance. Of these, 109 were not availed of owing to its being found unnecessary for the ship to work cargo on the Sunday, and the fee paid for the permit was refunded in each case, and 48, permits were issued, free of charge, to Mail Steamers.

The revenue collected under this heading was $44,800; this was $1,250 more than in 1900. The revenue collected each year since the Ordinance came into force is as follows:-

1892, 1893, 1894,

The large amount collected for these Sunday permits is worthy of remark and especially so in connection with the petition of a few years ago against the increase of Light Dues, in which the Secretary of State and others were asked to believe that, so precarious is the shipping trade of this important centre, that, a charge of 24 cents (Mexican) per registered ton would "tend to deter vessels from coming to the Port."

626

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 18TH APRIL, 1902.

Now what do we see? That since 1897 (the year of the petition) the amount paid for Sunday permits has increased year by year until in 1901, in addition to the $58,375 paid by shipping for Light Dues at the rate of one cent per registered ton, we have a contribution of $44,800 from 282. ships aggregating 466,802 tons, or at the rate of 9 cents a registered ton, for the benefit of one day's work in the discharge or shipment of cargo. It is evident from this, I think, that there still remains some inducement for ships to come to Hongkong, and that the benefit to be derived thereby is not so small as to be influenced by the payment of dues even exceeding the paltry 2 cents above referred to. It must be remembered that while dues are paid per ton of ship's register, freight is charged usually per ton of cubic measurement and that approximately a ship carries 1.875 of her registered tonnage: 2 cents therefore per ton of ship's registered tonnage represents only 1 cents per cargo ton, or, in other words, it only takes 13 cents of freight to pay 2 cents of Harbour dues.

A ship whose earnings on a round voyage are so small or so precarious that an expenditure of a sum representing less than one halfpenny a ton of her freight may make an appreciable difference in her balance sheet at the termination of her voyage, is not one likely to bestow much benefit on this or any other port, and I venture to think that the staying away of such evident pauperism would be a thing rather to be desired than otherwise.

SEAMEN.

   19. Twenty thousand five hundred and eleven (20,511) Seamen were shipped and 23,189 dis- charged at the Mercantile Marine Office and on board ships during the

year.

ΟΙ

One hundred and ninety-two (192) "Distressed Seamen were received during the year. these, 69 were sent to the United Kingdom, 5 to Sydney, I to Vancouver, 2 to Bombay, 3 to Calcutta, 1 to Brisbane, 1 obtained employment on shore, 2 went as passengers to Shanghai, 1 to Singapore, 1 to Melbourne, 2 to Manila, 1 to the United Kingdom, 1 taken charge of by United States Consul, 4 disappeared, 1 dismissed, 7 died at the Government Civil Hospital, 1 remained at the Government Civil Hospital, 2 at the Sailors' Home, and 87 obtained employment.

   Three thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight dollars and four cents ($3,888.04) were expended by the Harbour Master on behalf of the Board of Trade in the relief of these distressed Seamen, and $207 by the Colony.

MARINE SURVEyon's Sub-DEPARTMENT.

20. Return No. XXIII gives a report of the work performed by this Sub-Department during the year 1901.

   The tonnage of vessels surveyed during the year 1901 amounted to 376,539 tons, an increase of 49,253 tons over tonnage surveyed during 1900.

During the same period the number of licensed steam launches surveyed increased from 187 in 1900 to 217 in 1901.

The tonnage of licensed passenger launches surveyed during the year amounts to 12,668 tons. The revenue derived from the work of this Sub-Department for 1901 amounts to $15,991.04 against $15,036.59 in 1900.

   In the Return the surveys and reports on Government Pumping Stations, Disinfectors, Steam Road Roller, Stone Crusher, Dredger and Pontoon Crane do not appear, Government Launches now number 16, they are surveyed twice a year and take up a considerable amount of time and attention of this Sub-Department.

Telegraphic and telephonic communication has been kept up with the Gap Rock, Cape D'Agui- lar and Waglan Island during the year. From Gap Rock station 885 vessels have been reported as passing and in addition 133 messages were received and 3,433 sent, including the daily weather report for the Observatory.

From Cape D'Aguilar station, 1,668 vessels were reported, and in addition 1,792 messages were sent and 12 received.

Forty-eight hours and twenty minutes of fog were reported from Gap Rock during the year, and the fog signal gun was fired 309 times. On no occasion was the relief delayed by the rough sea.

    On the 2nd of March the Waglan Island Light-house was taken over from the Chinese Govern- meut, and arrangements were completed for signalling vessels. From the 18th July, 710 vessels were reported as passing inwards and in addition 35 messages were received and 28 sent.

The fog signal gun was fired 127 times. Owing to the telephonic communication being interrupted, 30 vessels were not reported. On one occasion the relief could not be effected for three days owing to the rough sea.

GENERAL.

i

23. The Harbour Office is now nearly completely shut in fron a view of the Harbour; the pre- paration of the new site goes on slowly.

The problem of providing berthing accommodation in the Harbour for the ever increasing tonnage frequenting the Port is one that is getting more difficult each year, and though there may not be any very pressing necessity just at present, there can, I think, be no reasonable doubt that, with the constant advance in size, draught, and number, as well of Ships-of-War as of the Mercantile Marine, and of Foreign as well as British Shipping, the water space which, up to the present time has sufficed, will, before inany years, be found quite inadequate.

The first note of warning has been sounded. Owing to the increase in size and number of His Majesty's Ships on the China Station, as well as of the Ships-of-War of Foreign nations, and to the reclamation to the shore of deep water by the extension of the Naval Yard, the Man-of-War anchorage, which formerly accommodated all Ships-of-War, British as well as Foreign, has recently been found at times insufficient for even our own ships, and the excess has had to be accommodated elsewhere, and thus while Foreign Ships-of-War are still, as formerly, berthed when practicable in the special anchor- age, this is frequently found impracticable, and their berths are assigned to them by the Harbour Master, a course also sometimes rendered necessary in the case of British Ships-of-War.

   The necessity for providing special anchorages for the accommodation of Ships-of-War, coal ships and ships with gunpowder or dangerous goods, as well as for keeping three fairways clear for the passage of ships through the Harbour, curtails very much the available deep water space, and, in order to provide further berthing room without extending the anchorage to an inconvenient distance East and West, the question of deepening the comparatively shallow area lying between Yaumati and Stone Cutters' Island, and of removing the shoal patches off Quarry Bay and in some other parts of the Har- bour, will have to be seriously considered, and probably a system of more or less constant dredging provided for.

   The water area within the Harbour Limits comprises approximately 7 square miles, of this about one-half is of a less depth than 44 fathoms at Low Water; Fairways and special anchorages take up another 14 square miles, leaving only 24 square miles of deep water available for the very large and constantly increasing amount of shipping trading to the Port, and although a depth of 44 fathoms may seem an excessive requirement to-day, there is a universal tendency towards larger and deeper draughted ships, and it is probable that, at no very distant date, a considerable percentage of the ship- ping of the Port will not be able to do with a lesser depth. Nearly 2 square miles more of deep water could be added to our present space by increasing by one fathom the depth over the area be- tween Yaumati and Stone Cutters' Island.

1

In the meanwhile the subject of improving the navigation conditions has received consideration. The principal obstructions to navigation at the Eastern end of the Harbour are, the Penguin Shoal off Quarry Bay, and a shoal in mid-channel South of Cust Rock. As neither of these carry a less depth than 27 feet at Low Water Springs, they are not at present a danger to the ships of the Mer- cantile Marine, though it is quite possible they may become so before long owing to the tendency towards larger and deeper draughted ships.

   But it has been pointed out that they are even now an obstruction to some of His Majesty's Ships which make Hongkong their headquarters.

   A proposal of the Vice-Admiral and Commander-in-Chief to remove them by dredging was considered, and an estimate of the cost obtained, but this proved to be so large that it had to be aban- doned and some alternative found.

A beacon has been built on a 12-foot patch inside and to the Northward of the Lyeemun Pass, from which from the 1st January this year a red light has been displayed at night, a similar light is also shewn on the North side of the l'ass itself.

   It is now proposed that a light shall be placed on Blackhead's Hill and another (automatic) on Cust Rock,

   This can be carried out at a comparatively small cost, as the already approved scheme of shifting Cape D'Aguilar light to Green Island and Green Island Light to Cape Collinson will make the Cape Collinson's apparatus available for Blackhead's Hill, and a considerable improvement can thus be effected which will curry us on until the time arrives when the larger schene of general improvement already referred to above can be carried out.

   24. While on the subject of Harbour improvement, I desire to place on record, and to invite possible criticism of, a proposal which has already been before the Government in a special form, and

therefore reproduce it in this ny Annual Report.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 18TH APRIL, 1902.

629

It will be almost universally admitted, I think, that the population of the town of Victoria is gradually growing beyond the numbers that can be satisfactorily and healthily housed, and while schemes are more or less tentatively put forward, having as a partial object the relief of this over- crowding, the real question of how and where to find good and sufficient housing room for our ever- increasing numbers has not really been tackled.

-*

     In 1894 we were somewhat suddenly male to face the fact that, the conditions of life amongst the very large numbers of Chinese of the lower class dwelling in Hongkong was such as to demand ame- lioration, and, since that memorable year, special efforts have been made with this object, and withi these efforts has resulted an almost universal demand for more room.

    Since the Island of Hongkong has practically little more room for the purpose, it seems remarkable that, just at about the time when the demand was forced upon us, the supply should have appeared in the acquisition of what is known as the New Territory.

    Our boundary on the mainland was thrown back and more than 200 square miles added to Hongkong.

In this large tract of almost unoccupied land, we have to hand, at once, the remedy for overcrowd- ing in our City, and if we really mean business when we speak about relieving the pressure in the dwellings in Victoria, we must give all half-measures the go-by in favour of the one full measure of providing.housing room whereby the surplus population can be accommodated on the other side of the Harbour. By this means a double purpose will be served, the unhealthy conditions now existing in Victoria will be removed and, at the same time, the New Territory will be opened up and developed, to the advantage of the Public Revenue and of the Colony generally.

    But in order to accomplish this, it is absolutely necessary that we should have easy communica- tion with the other side, and by "easy" I mean something very different from the present Ferry

⚫ service.

Communication between Hongkong and Kowloon should be by means of a Bridge across the

Harbour.

    The advantages to be derived by such a means of communication are so obvious, that they need hardly be alluded to. The mere thought of the difference between walking over to Kowloon direct, or riding over in a chair or a ricksha, or, better still, in the electric tramcar, compared with the present more or less comfortless passage in moderate weather and no passage at all in bad weather, should be sufficient to commend the scheme beyond question.

    Nor is the scheme, in my opinion, anything less than a practical one, for there can be no en- gineering difficulty, I should say, in building a bridge about one mile long over water averaging in depth about 37 feet and with a maximum of 52 feet at Low Water.

Nor will such a bridge be any practical obstruction, or even inconvenience, to shipping.

    The line I would propose would be from Pottinger Street to Tsim Sha Tsui and so striking. Robinson Road, Kowloon.

    The style of the bridge is not of importance at the present moment, but I would suggest one break in it, to be closed by a "swing" or a "draw" bridge, not for general use, but chiefly for the conve- nience of more or less disabled ships wishing to go into dock from the further side of the bridge.

    The Harbour would be practically divided into two parts, the Eastern and the Western, and at the first glance, it might seem that, a ship in the Western half bound North, or a ship in the Eastern half bound South, would be seriously inconvenienced, but this is not really so.

To a given point in her voyage, the ship going North would, at a speed of 10 knots, sacrifice 45 minutes if she started from the West of the bridge and went out through Sulphur Channel, while the ship bound South and being to the East of the bridge would sacrifice even less. How often one sees in the present day, ships spending aln ost as many minutes in "pointing" after they have left their buoy if they happen to be adversely swung, while, on the other hand, ships under similar circumstances can be seen leaving just as they would do if the bridge existed, that is to say, going out by Lyeemun Pass if bound South and vice versâ.

By placing the bridge where I propose, the well established coasting steamers of the Douglas S. S. Co. would have their Wharf on the Eastern half of the Harbour. Their first port being only about 175 miles distant, 45 minutes might be of importance to them.

    It would necessarily be a low-level bridge both for the convenience of the approaches and for better security from typhoons. A clearance not exceeding 40 feet at high water would, I consider, be ample.

630

THE HONGLONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 18TH APRIL, 1902.

   That the cost of such a bridge would be considerable is undoubted, but any reasonable expend- iture would be justified in a cause such as I have alluded to. Besides which, the bridge can be made. remunerative by the imposition of a toll.

Not less than 6,000,000 passengers annually pass between Hongkong and Kowloon (3,000,000 each way) this number would probably be increased by one-half if a bridge existed.

   Nine million (9,000,000) passengers at an average toll of 1 cent would be a substantial return on the money laid out, and this the direct return only, the indirect return, in the form of rates, &c., would probably be even greater, while the advantage to be gained in being able to carry telegraph cables, &c., across the bridge instead of in their present rather precarious. position and the possibility of using the bridge as an aqueduct for a supply of water to Hongkong from the Kowloon range cannot altogether be overlooked.

HYDROGRAPHIC NOTICE No. 43.

BRANCH HYDROGRAPHIC OFFICE, OFFICE OF THE CAPTAIN OF THE PORT,

MANILA, P. I., April 1st, 1902.

HYDROGRAPHIC INFORMATION. NORTH-WEST COAST OF LUZON.

   Regular soundings decreasing from thirteen to seven fathoms hard bottom, were found in the bight of the Coast between Cape Bojeador and Laoag River, a depth of seven fathoms being about a mile from the shore. These soundings deepen on approaching Laoag River.

   Mount Kauit is a sand hill from three hundred to four hundred feet high, partially covered with a sparse growth of bushes. Its bighest point is about central and rises like a nipple. It is a conspicuous land mark, being the only considera- ble elevation near the shore line.

   A good anchorage off Laoag River may be found by bringing Mount Kanit to beat north-east and heading in for it, anchoring in seven fathoms, sand bottom, when Kulili Point should bear South 24 West. On this bearing Laoag River is open and in range with Mount Kauit, a bar closing the mouth of the river.

   Port Salomague; The red and white buoy, reported in United States Coast Survey Notice to Mariners No. 7, of November 8th, 1901, as moored off the extremity of the reef extending from the north point of Salomague harbor, is no longer there.

A BILL

ENTITLED

AN ORDINANCE to exempt certain Crown Leases and Agreements for Crown Leases, and Per- mits granted by the Crown, from the operation of sections 3 and 4 of the Foreshores and Sea Bed Ordinance, 1901.

WHEREAS doubts have arisen as to the applicability, in Preamble. whole or in part, of sections 3 and 4 of the Foreshores and Sea Bed Ordinance, 1901, (Ordinance No. 21 of 1901) iu certain cases, and it is expedient to prevent further difficulty.

BE it enacted by the Governor of Hongkong, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof, as follows:-

1. Sections 3 and 4 of the Foreshores and Sea Bed Or- Sections 3 dinance 1901 shall not apply

(1.) To cases where, in the opinion of the Governor in Council declared in writing, an agreement to grant a Crown Lease and the grant of such Crown Lease of Crown Foreshore, Sea bed, or Crown land covered with water, will not cause or constitute any sub- stantial interference with public rights or alleged public rights of navigation or fishing.

(2.) To any grant, or demise, by the Crown of the right of erecting and maintaining, or to any permit to erect and maintain, any pier or wharf in, upon, over, across, and above Crown foreshore, Sea bed, or Crown land covered with water. *All such grants, demises, and permits may be made or granted by the Crown subject, where applicable, to the provisions of the Piers Ordinance 1899 as amended by Ordinance No. 17 of 1900, and shall not be deemed to infringe any public rights or alleged public rights of naviga- tion or fishing.

Provided that nothing in this Ordinance shall be deemed to derogate from the special rights of sea access (if any) of any holder of any Marine Lot holding under a Crown Lease.

erected.

Objects and Reasons.

Since the earliest days of the Colony, it has been the practice for the Crown to erect and maintain, and to grant permission to erect and maintain, piers over the Crown foreshore (including the sea bed) in cases in which the Governor has deemed such erection and maintenance to be expedient and proper. Care has, of course, been taken in so doing to avoid interfering with any special rights of access to, and regress from, the sea, claimed by Marine lot

owners.

In a large commercial port like Hongkong, such piers are necessary in order to afford proper facilities for commerce and passengers. When such piers are of ordinary dimen- sions and the Harbour Master has reported that they are unobjectionable so far as the requirements of harbour navi- gation, etc., are concerned, no one ever suggested, before the passing of the Foreshores and Sea Bed Ordinance, No. 21 of 1901, that any public rights of navigation or fishing are substantially interfered with, even assuming them. to exist.

The Law of England was, by Ordinance No. 6 of 1845, section 4, introduced into this Colony "except where the same shall be inapplicable to the local circumstances of the said Colony or of its inhabitants" and, rightly or wrongly, it has never been understood that public rights of navigation and fishing existed of such a kind as to render the erection of a pier sanctioned by the Crown a public nuisance interfering with such rights.

The wording of the Foreshores and Sea Bed Ordinance, 1901, has, however, given rise to doubts as to the legality of permitting the erection and maintenance of piers, unless the preliminary requirements of that Ordinance have been complied with. This has occasioned much public incon- venience,

687

F

6.88

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

Where a Lease of the actual soil of foreshore and sea bed becomes necessary, as, for instance, for a wharf of solid masonry, it may be practicable to comply with the requirements of that Ordinance. But in the case of ordi- nary piers the only thing granted and demised is "the right of erecting and maintaining a pier in, upon, over, across, and above, so much of the Crown foreshore and Crown land covered with water, situate at.........as is shown on the plan hereunto annexed and thereon coloured red" (see ordi- nary printed Form in use). Here it would seem strange to insert a covenant, for instance, "reserving to the Crown all mines and minerals under the demised lauds," see section 4 (s-s. iii) of Ordinance 21 of 1901, especially as no lands are actually demised. Yet this is required, if the Foreshores and Sea Bed Ordinance applies to such piers.

It was only quite recently that the Pier question was supposed to be settled by Ordinance No. 37 of 1899, as amended by Ordinance No. 17 of 1900, and it was not intended to affect that settlement by the Foreshores aud Sea Bed Ordinance.

It appears, therefore, to be best, in the interests of the Colony, to provide that such Ordinance shall not be deemed to extend to cases where only the right of erecting and maintaining a pier or wharf in, upon, over, across, and above, Crown foreshore and Crown land covered with water is granted or demised, and that it shall not apply in any case where, in the opinion of the Governor in Council, no sub- stantial interference with public rights of navigation or fishing is likely to result from a demise of Crown foreshore or sea bed.

The following Report on the New Territory, for the year 1901, was laid before the Legislative Council on the 30th April, 1901, and is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 1st May, 1902.

Acting Colonial Secretary.

REPORT ON THE NEW TERRITORY. FOR THE YEAR 1901.

Land Court.

I attach (Appendix No. 1) a Report from Mr. GOMPERTZ, President of the Land Court, on the work done by his Department during 1901.

The work of adjudicating upon the claims to land has naturally been somewhat slow owing to the amount of preliminary work which devolves upon the Land Court before any actual adjudication of claims can take place.

Early in the year the Court held its first sittings, and enquired into the claims at Ma Wán Island and in the Islands of Cheung Chau and Peng Chau, and subsequently dealt with the intricate claims to land bordering on the harbour.

The actual method of procedure adopted by the Land Court, preliminary to the investigation of claims, is set forth in Mr. GOMPERTZ's Report. The whole of the New Territory, with the exception of the Sai Kung Peninsula and Ts'in Wán, has now been demarcated, and claims to over two-thirds of this area have already been lodged with the Land Court.

In view of the difficulties incident to the inception of work of this description, the Land Court may be congratulated on the work already done. The number of lots already demarcated is 158,598 ; the number of claims lodged with the Land Court 69,253. Rent Rolls for Tái Pó and for the districts of Mui Wo and Tung Chung in the Island of Lan Tao have been made out: and, without being unduly optimistic, one may prophesy for the year 1902 a much accelerated rate of progress.

Survey.

   I print as Appendix No. 2. a Report from Mr. TATE on the Survey operations in the New Territory up to the close of the Field Season, 1900-1901 (July 15th, 1901).

Mr. TATE has returned to India, and the completion of the Cadastral Survey is under the diretion of Mr. NEWLAND. The headquarters of the Survey are at present at Tái Pó. In November, it was found necessary to bring 48 trained Indian Survey coolies from India, as the Chinese coolie was found unsuitable for this class of work.

The Topographical Survey and the Triangulation on which the mapping has been based are now completed.

During the year 1901,、 11,087 35 acres and 174,677 fields were cadastrally surveyed. In 1900, the area surveyed was 35,257·77 acres and 226,588 fields. This difference is due to the fact that the Surveyors are at present working with the Demarcators, both Survey and Land Office operations being carried on at one and the same time. The change in scales from 16 inch to 32 inch has also retarded the progress of the Survey.. This change in scale was found to be essential: it was impossible to represent the small terraced fields or to survey in detail the villages on the scale of 16 inch to the mile.

I attach some photographs, which Mr. NEWLAND has forwarded to me, which will give some idea of the nature of the ground at present being surveyed.

The districts surveyed during the year were:-

The whole of the Shataukok District. Sub-Districts: Shun Wan, Tsoi Hang, Lam Tsun, Hap

Wo and portions of Lung Yeuk Tau of the Sheung Ü District.

A portion of the Sub-District Kau Yeuk of the Kau Lung District.

A portion of the Sub-District Cheung Muk Tau of the Tung Hoi District.

The Islands of Peng Chau, Kat O and Double Island, in Mirs Bay.

Portions of Lan Tao Island near Tung Chung and Mui Wo.

The accompanying map* will show at a glance the situation and extent of these districts.

Botanical and Afforestation Department.

697

   Mr. FORD, the Superintendent of the Botanical and Afforestation Department, has furnished me with the following details concerning the work done by his Department in the New Territory during the past year.

   Tree planting has been continued round the Police Stations, and some twenty thousand miscel- laneous trees have been planted along the sides of the new road between Cheung Sha Wan gap and Sha Tin.

   With a view of discovering a more economical mode of raising plants than that of sowing the seeds in nurseries and afterwards transplanting the seedlings, experiments have been made by sowing on the hills in situ. About 98,000 trees were reared in this way near the new road. With the exception of 5,000 camphor shoots, they were all pine seeds. The pines are doing well but the camphors are almost a failure. However, further experiments are to be made this year, which should prove whether it is possible to grow camphor trees on the hills so as to be a commercial success.

During the past 3 months, about 4 miles of fire barriers, 15 feet wide, have been made to protect the trees along the sides of the new road and around Chinese graves.

   Grass turfing, to the extent of 16,000 square yards, has been done to cover loose soil near Police Stations; in future it would perhaps be better for work of this sort to be undertaken by the Public Works Department in connection with the erection of new buildings.

Harbour Department.

A station in Deep Bay, on board the Police steam-launch, was opened in November, 1901. There are now four stations in the New Territory.

During the year 1901, 6,703 Licences, Clearances, Permits, etc., were issued to Junks at Cheung Chau; 4,117 at Tai 0; 3,411 at Tái Pó and 531 at Deep Bay. These figures shew an increase of 182, as compared with those of last year.

:

   The revenue collected by the Harbour Office Department from the New Territory during 1901 was $9,222.30; in 1900, the revenue was $8,390.75.

Public Works Department.

I attach a Report (Appendix No. 3) from the Director of Public Works shewing the work done. by his Department during the year.

   The work of erecting and draining permanent Police Stations and of constructing telephoric communication between various parts of the New Territory has been steadily pushed forward. The Police Station at Sai Kung, begun in 1900, was completed at a cost of $13,650.60. The station at Sheung Shui has also been completed, and the one at Tai O in the Island of Lan Tao has been commenced.

   The new road to Tái Pó, the total length of which when finished will be about 18 miles, has been completed for 13 miles and good progress has been made with the remaining section.

The amount spent on the new road during the year was $74,648.86.

Education.

   Little has been done as yet for the promotion of Education in the New Territory, but it is hoped that before long, Anglo-Chinese and Vernacular Schools will be started at Un Long and Sheung Shui.

Medical Department.

   I attach a Report (Appendix No. 4) from Mr. Ho NAI HOP, the Medical Officer in the New Territory.

A

   Mr. Ho resided at Tái Pó and attended 2,096 cases during the year. This shews a large increase on the number of cases attended during the previous year; no doubt, most of the inhabitants having availed themselves of Mr. Ho's services. There has been a great improvement in the health of the Euro- peans stationed in the New Territory. The number of cases of malarial fever shews a large decrease; the percentage of admissions to Hospital of such cases dropped from 90 % in 1900 to 52.5 % in 1901. This is due, no doubt, to the prophylactic measures adopted, and to the destruction of the breeding places of the Anopheles mosquito. I append a Report (Appendix No. 5) from Dr. ATKINSON, the Principal Civil Medical Officer, giving statistics on the subject of malaria in the New Territory.

698

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

Police.

   The Chinese authorities, at the suggestion of this Government, established a force of soldiery along the northern border of the New Territory during the latter part of the year under review. These "braves" have co-operated with our Police in preventing the incursion of bands of robbers across the borders. The close co-operation has enabled the Government to effect a reduction in the number of police stationed in the New Territory and has had a good effect in checking crime.

Crime.

   I append (Appendix No. 6) a return of the crimes committed in the New Territory during the year 1901 which have been tried before the Police Magistrates.

The number of cases heard was 551, involving 708 accused persons.

   In my Report last year, I drew attention to the criminal statistics and pointed out the apparently large increase in crime which had taken place. This increase was probably due, as I then observed, to the more complete development of the Police organisation and to the growing confidence of the natives in British methods of administering justice. This year it is satisfactory to be able to report that, although there has been a slight increase in the number of serious offences, there is no increase in the number of crimes committed.

There was one case of murder, for which three men stood their trial and were convicted. One of the murderers was hanged; the sentences on the other two being commuted to imprisonment for life.

   There were 25 gang robberies, in connection with which 21 persons were convicted and sentenced to long terms of imprisonment.

   The special legislation passed in 1901 to protect the lives and property of passengers by launches from attack by armed robbers disguised as passengers has been effectual; no case of this kind having occurred during 1901.

The figures for this year shew a decrease of 35 cases and of 99 accused persons, as compared with the year 1900. Breaches of the Opium Ordinance are still responsible for the largest list of offenders, - 161 cases having been tried under this enactment alone.

Revenue and Expenditure.

I attach a statement of the Revenue and Expenditure on account of the New Territory which has been prepared by the Acting Colonial Treasurer (Appendix No. 7). The Expenditure for the year 1901, exclusive of expenditure on behalf of Police services was $252,376.14. Of this amount, Public Works Extraordinary, including the Survey, were responsible for $163,101.45. Expenditure on behalf of the Police Establishment amounted to $101,884.01. It will thus be seen that the total Expenditure for the year was $354,260.15. The total Expenditure for the year 1900 was $345,654.14, the increase in expenditure for the year 1901 is, therefore, $8,606.01. Large as the amount of money expended during the year under review may appear to be, it should be remembered that much of it has been sunk in permanent improvements, in the building and draining of Police Stations and in the construction of the new road. There are also smaller sums such as the $9,321.03 expended in connection with the lighthouse on Waglan Island and the $6,029.82 spent on the hire and charter of launches, which, though charged to the New Territory account, are of considerable benefit to the trade and commerce of the Island of Hongkong.

   The Revenue collected amounted to $53,890.63. The moneys collected under Junk Licences, Pawnbroker's Licences and Stone Quarries shew but little variation with the sums collected under these heads in 1900.

Licences for the sale of Spirits and Kerosene Oil, issued for the first time during the year 1901 brought in the sum of $3,015.98, and a slightly larger sum was derived from permits to collect stone and ballast.

The most satisfactory item in the Revenue return, however, is the large increase in the sum collected for Land Tax.

   During the year, the services of the Registrar General were made use of to impress upon tenants the importance of paying rent without delay. The amount collected was $28,797.65, as against $1,300.00 collected in 1900. As I have pointed out in previous

As I have pointed out in previous reports, the difficulties in connection with the settlement of claims to land, make the collection of rent a slow process, but with the gradual settlement of these claims and with the completion of the Survey and the Rent Roll a considerably augmented. revenue from this source may be expected. Although it may be some time before the New Territory will be able to pay its way, it is satisfactory to be able to report that during the year 1901 the revenue collected more than trebled the amount collected in 1900.

There are also signs of advancement in other directions. A cracker factory has been erected near Un-lung and a factory for the distilling of native spirits is in course of erection at Ts'un-Wan.

    A very large establishment for the preparation of Soy for export is in full work at Kowloon City, and, like the other enterprises I have mentioned, is entirely supported by Chinese capital. I understand further that the Land Court finds that the customary mortgages, to which much of the agricultural land was formerly subject, are being redeemed on every hand, by the landowners, and this I regard as significant of a general advance in the value of property, and of an appreciation of this advance by the villagers themselves.

    It is certain that, when the land settlement is further advanced and titles to land settled, progress will be more rapid. Capitalists are quite prepared to invest their capital in various enterprises, but refrain from doing so until they are able to obtain a proper title to the land they wish to purchase.

    It must also be remembered that the New Territory has proved a valuable acquisition in certain ways which are not generally remembered, especially by those inclined to decry the extension of the Colony of Hongkong.

    As regards water-supply, the water for the Kowloon Peninsula is at present obtained from the New Territory, and it is difficult to see how the present and future water requirements of the ever- increasing population of Kowloon could have been met had not the New Territory come under the ægis of Great Britain. It is not too much to say that, without the New Territory, the develop- ment of Kowloon must have been arrested, whereas, through its aid, the continued progress of Kowloon is assured. It is also not altogether beyond the bounds of probability that some day it may be necessary to utilise the water from the watershed of Taimo Shan for the supply of the Island of Hongkong.

    I am also informed, by those competent to express an opinion, that Mirs Bay contains some of the finest harbours in the world and that it is not necessary to cross the Kowloon Hills to find an ideal area for exercising troops.

    I have always held the opinion that the New Territory was not "a white elephant," as I have not infrequently heard unkind critics describe it. Events have already justified the favourable esti- mate of its future which I formed and embodied in the Report I wrote after I had visited it for the first time. It is not prudent to prophery unless one is certain, still I venture to predict that before long the inhabitants of this Colony will wonder how even the most arrant pessimist could have held any but the most favourable views regarding the future of the New Territory.

    This will be my last report on the New Territory and, in bidding it farewell, I do so with great. regret, mingled with pleasant reminiscences of conflicting work carried on in the midst of most charming and beautiful scenery, and lessened by the recollection that I have been and still remain a staunch believer in its future.

Appendix No. 1.

LAND COURT,

SIR,

HONGKONG, 15th March, 1902.

I have the honour to forward herewith my Report on the work of the Land Court up to the 31st December, 1901.

Judicial and Semi-judicial Duties.

1. The operations of the Court fall naturally into two main divisions.

Section 3 of Ordinance 18 of 1900 provides that "all claims to land in the New Territories shall *** be heard and determined by a Land Court." Section III and succeeding sections provide for the jurisdiction and procedure of the Court and allow for Appeals to the Full Court in certain cases. That is to say, that in all disputed claims, the Court has to take the evidence of the parties concerned and finally to adjudicate between them. This is, in fact, work which is purely judicial and might have been dis- charged by the Supreme Court of the Colony had that tribunal possessed the necessary leisure. The Land Court has also further duties, in the exercise of which its functions are rather those of a special Commission, as when it examines into and allows or disallows, for one reason or another, as against the Crown, claims which are not contested by rival claimants but which require careful scrutiny in order to ascertain whether the titles are such as would have been recognized by the Government of China. On this side of its jurisdiction, its functions are also within the scope of the 'Ordinance and might, I think, be classed as semi-judicial in their nature.

Ministerial Duties.

Altogether apart from, however, and outside of the jurisdiction imposed by the Ordinance, it has been necessary to undertake operations of considerable extent calling for the employment of a large body of men and the disbursement of considerable sums of money. These duties which are perhaps best classified as ministerial have for their object :

رها

(1.) The preparation and collection of claims in such manner as to ascertain clearly which are those in which there are contesting parties and to winnow out the disputes from the great mass of uncontested claims.

(2.) The formation of a Crown Rent Roll based upon those among the claims, perhaps 96

per cent. of the whole, as are not disallowed by the Court.

Seeing that this latter or ministerial portion of my duties has been somewhat extensive, and seeing also that in order of time it is necessary to make preparation for the presentation of claims before the hearing and adjudication can conveniently be proceeded with, it may be advisable to teal in this Report first of all with these ministerial functions of the Department.

2. It is, of course, obvious that a claim to land is, in its very nature, dissimilar from a suit to recover money. Supposing, for instance, that A. B. comes forward and declares his desire to lay claim to a certain field, it is impossible for the officers of the Court, without a map of holdings, to determine the situation of the land he professes to claim. Even if A. B. produces a survey plan purporting to show his own holding, still without a general scheme showing the relative positions of all claims within the District, there is no means of knowing what other persons have claims conflicting with that of A. B.

On taking up my duties in June, 1900, I found that there were indeed available the excellent cadastral or field to field maps of the Indian Survey extending over approximately one-half of the cultivated land. No holdings, however, were shown on these as it had been manifestly impossible for the Survey Field Staff, who were Indians unacquainted with Chinese, to make any enquiries as to the ownership. A Chinese demarcation staff was, therefore, got together as fast as suitable men could be enlisted; and by the end of 1900 had reached a complement of 88 men. Gradually, however, it became apparent that, in view of the peculiar circumstances of the New Territory with its thousands of minute holdings, it would be necessary to largely increase the Cadastral Staff unless the estimate of the time necessary to complete its operations was to be very considerably exceeded.

In June, therefore, His Excellency determined to telegraph to India for 29 additional Field Surveyors and to authorize a corresponding increase in the strength of the Chinese Demarcation Staff, which at the present time comprises no less than 190 men divided into Field parties of 4 men: three coolies and one Demarcator to each party.

Demarcation.

3. The duty of a Demarcator is to discover, in the first instance, the owners of cultivated ground, or of ground showing signs of recent cultivation. He is accompanied by an Indian Surveyor who inserts each holding on a map under his directions. Every holding is numbered; the numbers appearing on the map as far as possible in consecutive order. Tickets bearing these numbers, together with a description of the holding are issued to all persons claiming an interest in the land; and full particulars of ownership are entered in a demarcation register kept by the Demarcator. A medium of communi- cation is thus established between the people and the Court.

f

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

701

The range of a Demarcator's enquiries is limited by the cadastral map. Any land on a cadastral map showing clearly marked boundaries may thus be included in the demarcation register even should an owner be not forthcoming in the first instance. Hills, foreshore areas covered by graves-in fact any land at a distance from the general areas of cultivation-are, however, omitted from the demarcation scheme and provided for separately.

    Having regard to the responsible nature of their duties, Demarcators have been selected where possible from the educated class and they have, on the whole, displayed a high standard of intelligence and honesty. Each man is called upon to give security in a Bond for $100: which sum is forfeited in the event of the person secured being convicted under the Ordinance dealing with the receiving or soliciting of an illegal gratification. The prejudice against out-door labour common to the educated in every Eastern country has, of course, been some hindrance to free enlistment, but the difficulty has been partially obviated by the influence of Mission Schools in which it appears that some 20 per cent. of the Demarcators have received their education. I attach (Appendix A) a copy of Demarcation Rules I have prepared for the guidance of the staff. A practical acquaintance with these Rules is required of every candidate before his period of probation is considered at an end.

    4. To keep the Register properly is no sinecure in a country where a minute sub-division of pro- prietary rights is almost universal. Nearly every piece of cultivated land is the subject of a double ownership (a.) that of the customary lessor or rent charge owner who has, moreover, in certain contin- gencies, the reversion of the lessee's interest; and (b.) the customary lessee who has practically the whole ownership of the soil for himself and his heirs subject to the punctual payment of the rent charge. Both lessor and lessee may, and they frequently do, mortgage the whole or part of their rights, and these mortgages are again frequently assigned and re-assigned several times over.

There is no doubt that the head and front of all our difficulties in effecting a satisfactory settle- ment of the land question has been the enormous complexity of the rights of ownership and though with riper knowledge our methods of tabulation have improved and the risk of error has greatly decreased, still I think it will be conceded that the Demarcator's task is a formidable one and that if he - does his work faithfully he has thoroughly earned his modest salary of $15 by the end of the month. In all perhaps 30 per cent. of the demarcation staff have either been dismissed as unsatisfactory or have resigned through ill-health-two men have actually died in harness during the wet season.

The main obstacles to the quick progress of demarcation are as follows:-

(a.) The Chinese staff of the Land Court has to work hand in hand with Indian surveyors ;

and neither party understands the language of the other.

(b.) The holdings are in many cases very small-in some villages they average more than 100

to the acre.

(c.) Holdings near the boundary of the New Territory often belong to persons resident outside British jurisdiction and the owners occasionally neglect to come forward and furnish particulars of their rights, even after being specially summoned.

(d.) On Chinese holidays and festivals, and during seed time and harvest, information has

been less readily forthcoming than at other times.

(e.) In the case of poor pieces of hill cultivation, that have paid no taxes to the Chinese Government: the squatters are reluctant to lay claims that may be made the basis of taxation later on.

(f.) The divergent interests of local clans and peasant cultivators have given rise to fears on

both sides as to the intentions of Government.

    But, on the whole, where large parties of Demarcators have swept over a district taking village by village consecutively-public opinion in each village being prepared by work among its neighbours- Land Court operations have been met in a friendly spirit by the inhabitants.

5. It becoming apparent early in 1901 that the 16" scale was not large enough to enable (1.) village sites; (2.) the greater part of the cultivated holdings within the deep narrow valleys among the hills to be properly surveyed, in the month of February, His Excellency authorized a scale of 32" being employed whenever the Land Court should agree with the Survey Officer that its adoption was necessary.

In districts in which the survey had been completed before this change of scale had been decided upon, no detailed survey of village sites was available. In such cases all houses (including schools, temples, out-houses and the like) have been numbered village by village, and demarcation registers have been made from this starting point, demarcation tickets being issued, to allow householders to report their interests in the ordinary way.

Claims.

6. As soon as the demarcation of a district is in full swing, claimants are invited to come in, and as soon as it appears likely that every land owner is provided with Lot number tickets, a final date is announced in the Gazette after which no claims for land within that district will be received.

All claims must be presented on special forms provided by the Court. Local customs give rise to ambiguity which it is the object of the claim form to avoid. The distinctions between the nominal and actual payments made to a "tax lord," between the holders of yearly and perpetual leases, and between the

702

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

 terms of one customary mortgage and another are all provided for. I attach (Appendix ) a copy of the claim form now in use.

   Deeds and other proofs of title are filed with the various claims. In disputes, any claimant who is dissatisfied with the statement of his case allowed by the Court form, is allowed to attach a petition containing additional particulars.

   As hills, graves, foreshore, &c., usually lie outside the limits of the cadastral survey, special arrange- ments have been made by which such claims can be presented to the Court prior to survey. These claims are of all kinds, e.g., of a village to grazing rights, or to a village site, of a family to burying rights, of capitalists to fishing and foreshore rights and the like. Rights to cut trees have also been claimed. These undemarcated claims often encroach on demarcated areas; they sometimes conflict also

inter se.

   Conflicting, or seemingly conflicting, statements have been found in claims presented to the Court. Some of these have been due to the ignorance of the claimants: to the indefiniteness or unimportance of the interest claimed.; or to clerical errors. To reconcile these statements without the necessity of a formal hearing in Court, the Ordinance has been amended by Ordinance 27 of 1901 so as to allow the Registrar to summon lot-holders for a preliminary enquiry. In this way apparent disputes are being weeded out from those in which there are really contested issues, in order that the latter may come before the Court in due course. The success of claim taking on the mainland has been chiefly due to the zeal and energy of Mr. J. R. WOOD, who as Registrar has been in charge of the Tai Pó, branch office throughout the year.

   7. Immediately after the expiry of the last day fixed for the reception of claims, there are available the materials of a Rent Roll as follows:-

(1.) All uncontested claims to agricultural land.

(2.) All lots shown in the cadastral maps for which no claims have been laid. For these unclaimed lots the particulars of ownership must be obtaind from the demarcation registers.

   To these are added, from time to time as disputed claims are disposed of, all those lots which being in dispute have been held over for the decision of the Court. These do not, however, average more than about 4 per cent. of the whole.

   In the Tai Pó (No. VI) Survey District there are in all 29,344 demarcated lots. Of these, 25,482 have been formally claimed by the cultivators, leaving a balance of 3,862 lots unclaimed, or about 13.16 per cent. I attribute this high percentage of lots unclaimed principally to the instructions given to the Demarcators that all ground under actual or recent cultivation is to be mapped and given a lot number, whether an owner is immediately forthcoming or not. This plan obviates the necessity of going back later to survey lots omitted originally because an owner was not forthcoming; but it has also entailed the survey of much poor cultivation in the occupation of mere squatters who are in no hurry to assume the burdens of ownership.

   8. It will, I think, be recognized that the training of an adequate staff, together with the experiments necessary for the proper co-ordination of the Demarcation and Survey parties, was calculated to absorb several months in preliminary operations.

   Moreover the principles by which the validity of a claim was to be tested could be none other than those of the Law of China and it was necessary for the Court to make itself familiar with the general provisions of that Law no less than with the local customs modifying its operation within the area to be dealt with under the Ordinance.

   It is not necessary at this stage to describe at length the adequacy or otherwise of the materials ready to the hand of an enquirer into Chinese Land Tenure, but it will be easily understood that some months had gone by before we were in a position to hold formal sittings for the adjudication of claims.

First Formal Sittings of the Court.

   9. It was not, in fact, till the 20th February, 1901, that I held a Court for the first time at Ma Wán Island to enquire into the local claims which were for the most part of minor importance; and further similar sittings were held by me at frequent intervals on the Islands of Cheung Chau and Ping Chau. The Full Court, composed of Mr. POLLOCK as President and myself as Member, held its first sitting at Lyeemoon on the 1st March, 1901, and we continued to sit either in the Chinese Temple at Sai Ts'ó Wán or in an empty shop-house at Ch'a Kwo Leng throughout the summer.

Lyeemoon to Kowloon City.

   10. Most of the land in this neighbourhood is occupied either by the workmen in the stone quarries, which fringe the coast line for a space of more than four miles, or by petty cultivators residing in the villages of Sai Ts'ó Wán and Tái Kun Tong.

   But little difficulty, however, was caused by either of these classes, the padi land being held on incon- trovertible Chinese titles while the status of the quarrymen as licensees of the Chinese Government was fully established by their own headmen.. The dry and shifting cultivation, on the other hand, we found

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

703

to be mostly in the hands of persons who frankly owned themselves squatters on Crown Land being either stragglers from the stone cutters' villages on the water's edge or boat people who found the chief part of their subsistence upon the sea.

We found, however, that the water front extending from the Lyeemoon Pass to the western corner of Kowloon Bay was covered by a network of large claims mostly laid by persons who had acquired their title by purchase since or about the time of the Convention, influenced, no doubt, by the excellent sites available for docks and other industrial enterprises.

After an extensive enquiry lasting over several months, during which we took the evidence of some 160 witnesses, the majority of these large claims were entirely disallowed on the ground usually that the vendors could show no legal (or indeed equitable) title by Chinese Law.

11. In

many cases the amount of the consideration money paid by the purchaser was absurdly low, in others, payment of the whole sun was reserved and the full amount was to be finally handed over only after a good title had been shown by the vendors. It seems, therefore, permissible to believe that these purchases were often regarded merely as a promising speculation by the persons concluding them.

In the case of one claim, aggregating some 200 acres in extent and comprising a wide extent of hill-side and valley, the Chinese claimants had made an agreement for sale to a European gentleman resident in the Colony who had conceived an enterprising plan for augmenting the local food supply by the establishment of a sheep and poultry farm.

   This claim was disallowed on the grounds that the would-be vendors could only show good title to about an acre and a half of ground, but I believe that a high rate of mortality among the sheep and an epidemic which carried off some thousands of head of poultry had already decided the purchaser to abandon his courageous experiment.

Appeals.

   12. It might have been anticipated that the early decisions of the Court resulting as they did in the disallowal of a large percentage of claims to land frequently of considerable value would have resulted in a considerable number of Appeals to the Higher Courts. However, I find that, as a matter of fact, leave to appeal has been applied for in five cases only. In two instances the application has been subsequently withdrawn and in a third I understand that the parties intend to abandon the Appeal as soon as the delimitation of another claim in which they are interested has been satisfactorily arranged. In the remaining two claims the Appeal is still pending, but in neither of them has the Appellant taken any steps to have his case called on for final determination.

   13. In my Report for last year I suggested that the largest percentage of troublesome cases would be found in the land bordering on the harbour-the "New Kowloon" of Ordinance No. 30 of 1900. This prediction has proved substantially correct, not only, I believe, because of the enormous rise in the value of such land since the Convention, but because it was so ncarly worthless under Chinese Rule that per- sons entitled to the ownership, if indeed there were any such, took little or no trouble to assert those rights thereby laying the way open for the fabrication of every kind of fraudulent and fictitious claim by other persons later on.

   I am glad to be able to report that the settlement of the eastern portion of New Kowloon is now almost complete.

Sam Shui Po and Lai Chi Kok.

   For the western portion which ranges from Sam Shui Po to Kau P'a Kang on the north-east of Lai Chi Kok, regular sittings of the Full Court are now held four days in every week. I have no hesitation in pronouncing this to be by far the most difficult area in the New Territory; for the once deserted foreshore is now covered with a network of claims sometimes ten or twelve deep.

   It became early apparent that a special map of these claims would be necessary, and in July, 1901, Mr. B. W. GREY was detailed for the survey work with Mr. A. J. MACKIE as his Demarcation Officer. Much delay was caused by the neglect of claimants to mark out their land with boundary stones when called upon; while frequently the boundary stones once planted have been torn up during the night by rival claimants or carried away by pilfering grass-cutters or marauding junk men. The survey of this district which is plotted on a scale of 32" is now nearly complete, having necessitated some seven months of regular work in the field. The total number of large claims thus specially surveyed is 122, ranging in extent from 190 acres to acre .033, while the total sum of their areas added together amounts to some 1,100 acres.

   14. It is instructive to compare with this plentiful crop of litigation, the conditions prevailing in a rural area like the Island of Lan Tao where, out of a total of 9,853 holdings demarcated up to date, there have emerged only some four or five real disputes. It seems fairly clear that in the districts removed from the demoralising neighbourhood of the City of Victoria there should be little trouble in settling allsuits between claimant and claimant. There remain certainly one or two vexed questions: for instance, ew have yet to determine the exact status of "tax lord" or "rent charge owner "; and, again, we must look to experience to teach us the best method of dealing with family or "clan" estates where no partition has yet been effected; while again the exact proportion in which the dues of the Crown are to be paid

by the parties interested when there is, as commonly, a divided ownership in the soil, has still to be finally ascertained. It should be possible, however, in the near future when full materials are available to formulate general Rules which, if not unduly rigid, will be capable of general application.

15. As to the form of Titles it has been definitely decided that a Land Registry on the Torrens System is to be established for all land to the North of the Kowloon Watershed leaving New Kowloon under the Land Office in Hongkong. I have now in preparation a Draft Code to regulate Transfers and Mutations in Chinese Customary Land.

Results achieved.

   16. The results achieved by the Land Court during the last 18 months may now be briefly recapitulat- ed as follows. The whole of the New Territory on the mainlaind exclusive of the Sai Kung Peninsula and of Ts'in Wan has been demarcated, while each owner of land has a number ticket for every lot he claims to be his property. Over more than two-thirds of this area the claims have been already got in, and the balance should be in my hands within the next three months. The disputes in the outlying districts are relatively few in number, and several months of regular sittings will probably dispose of those already in my hands. The total number of claims received over the whole Territory up to 31st December last is 69,253. The total number of lots demarcated being 158,598. Eleven thousand three hundred and fifty (11,350) houses have been numbered to supplement those of the Survey Maps that have been plotted on a 16" scale. Rent Rolls of the Tai Pó District and again of Tung Chung and Mui Wo, which comprise the greater part of the cultivation in Lan Tao, are now being made out, and fresh districts will be proceeded with as soon as, to the materials now in my hands, are added the completed lot areas now under computation by the Cadastral Survey Staff.

STAFF.

17. The personnel of the Land Court was largely augmented during the year.

   The native field staff was increased from 88 to 190 men; the establishment has been further strengthened by the appointment of an Additional Registrar (Mr. E. D. C. WOLFE); Deputy Registrar, (Mr. CHEUNG TSOI); and two Demarcation Officers-(Messrs. S. R. MOORE and A. J. MACKIE.) Mr. B. W. GREY was attached to the Court as Special Survey Officer during the greater part of the year.

In December, Mr. H. E. POLLOCK having resigned the post of President, I was appointed by the Governor as his successor, Mr. H. L. DENNYS, late Crown Solicitor, joining the Court to fill my place as Member of the Court. I must express my hearty thanks to Messrs. TATE and NEWLAND, the Officers successively in charge of the Indian Survey, for their cordial co-operation and their unfailing readiness to assist in every detail of the difficult work of demarcation in a new country.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

H. H. J. GOMPERTZ, President, Land Court.

APPENDIX A.

DEMARCATION RULES.

PRELIMINARY REMARKS.

The object of Demarcation is to ascertain on the spot the exact position and area of each individual holding in order that it may be recorded in the Survey Map and an appropriate Lot Number given to it. To this end it is important that all persons claiming land should have full notice before Demarcation

commences.

   Notices should be distributed in the adjacent villages for at least a week before beginning work and the l'emarcator and his coolies should go about and inform people that they must come forward and potent out their land.

The evening before Demarcation begins the area it is expected to cover on the following day should be marked out with tall bamboos surmounted with a red flag; these should be left standing, while the work goes on, to show the villagers on what land the Demarcator is working.

1. The Demarcation should start close up to the Boundary Line of a Survey District and work along it, the lots being numbered consecutively from the commencement.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

705

2. Often a piece of land is shown to the Demarcators as being the property of say-the Li family- this means usually that the Li family or T'ong pay the taxes or that the taxes are paid in their name. The Demarcator should enquire whether the family cultivate or occupy the land themselves or whether it is leased out. If it is leased out for a term of years only or by the year the name of the family should be written in the column "Owner" and the name of the lessee in the column "Occupier".

appear in

3. If the Lease is in perpetuity "ch'eung p'ai", the name of the perpetual lessee should the "Owner" column with a note that the taxes are to be paid by the Li family.

4. Having ascertained who is the person whose name is to be shown as owner, mark out the limits of the lot carefully with bamboos, one at every angle and give it a Lot number.

5. If the Demarcator is working with a Surveyor he should then give the Surveyor the number, taking care that he gets the right one, and proceed to fill up his Demarcation book details.

6. Having made his entries in the book, the Demarcator is to enquire into the ownership of the next Lot. In no case however are the bamboos to be taken up before the Surveyor has quite finished with a Lot.

7. Every claim should be separately marked out and have a separate Lot number but if people come up later and claim portions of a field that has been already demarcated as one Lot and given a Lot number and this Lot number has been put down by the Surveyor in his map, the Demarcator should not go back and subdivide it.

8. The proper course is to make a note with the names of the parties in the Demarcation book and give each of the parties a slip with the Lot number written on it, telling them to come to the Office of the Land Court.

9.-(1.) The Demarcator will as a rule be accompanied by three coolies, one carrying bamboos, one with a pickaxe, and a third to assist the Demarcator enquiring into the ownership of the Lots. The coolie with the pickaxe should carry slips of paper with Lot numbers on them and give one to each owner of a Lot.

(2.) Every person claiming ownership in any Lot, the perpetual lessee, the mortgagee in possession and the tax-payer should have a Lot number ticket given to him.

When one person claims several Lots situated not far from each other the Demarcator should-write on the back of the Lot number paper a short memo. of the rent paid or the cultivator's name in order that the claimant may be able to remember to which field any one Lot number paper applies.

10. In the case of an area often of considerable size being held by the members of one family and cultivated by them, it will frequently be found that no division has ever been properly made. In such cases the Demarcator must refuse to go into the question of the various shares. He should give the whole area claimed one Lot number and tell the parties to come to the Court if they want a partition effected.

11. In any case of a disputed boundary the Demarcator must remember that he has no power to settle the boundary.

A B

D

C

A B

   12. To take such a case as shown here, the fields are D & C, the owner of C claims that his boundary isat AA while the owner of Blaims that the boundary line is at BB. The Demarcator should put down the two fields together as one Lot with one Lot number and make an entry in the book that the Lot is divided but that the boundary of the divisions is disputed; and also put down the names of the parties. He should then go on to the next Lot. Each claimant must have a Lot number paper with the number on it.

   13. If the Demarcator comes to an area which has been or is under cultivation or which appears to have well marked boundaries but for which he can find no claimant he can give it a Lot number and make a note in the book that no owner has come forward.

706

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

   14. When a house inhabited by several members of the same family is claimed by more than one of them, give the house and ground that goes with it one Lot number but put down the names of the various claimants.

15. Rules for dealing with Mortgaged land :-

(1.) If a man has mortgaged part of his holding, make the part mortgaged a separate Lot. (2.) Put down the name of the owner and also that of the mortgagee.

(3.) If there is more than one mortgagee put down the name of the mortgagee in possession --that is the person who is either (a.) actually cultivating the land himself, or who (b.) receives the rents from the tenant.

(4.) If a part only of a house is mortgaged the mortgage can be disregarded.

   16. It is of the very greatest importance that the Lot number on the map and that in the Demarcation book should agree. Any carelessness on the part of the Demarcator in this respect will be followed by instant dismissal.

17. (a.) No tickets are to be issued to persons other than claimants, except to applicants on behalf

of a claimant who is not present.

(b.) No name must be entered in the Demarcation book unless a ticket has been issued.

   18. When once an entry has been made in the Demarcation book, no crossing out or erasure is allowed. A circle may be drawn round the original entry if it is incorrect and additional information written at the side.

19. Numbers on the tickets will be written in both English and Chinese characters.

   20. A Demarcator must post Demarcation notices in every village included in his map. If there are no such villages, then in the two nearest villages. He will report, if these notices are disturbed.

   21. One District number and one series of Lot numbers will be given to each map-unless special instructions are issued.

   22. If any cultivated land is omitted from demarcation or if any houses are unnumbered, the demarcator in whose district it is will report the matter at once.

   23. Demarcators will be careful to see that Lots on the boundaries of neighbouring maps are not demarcated twice over. Should this happen the persons responsible will be punished. The demarcator who is on the spot first is responsible for demarcating fields any part of which lies upon his map; he

must let other demarcators on the same ground know when he has done this.

   24. All demarcators will check each week's work with the Cadastral Surveyor, doing so not earlier than 2 P.M. on Saturday. The maps and the Demarcation book must be in agreement.

   25. A demarcator is not allowed to leave his district except between the hours of 5 P.M. on Saturdays and 8.30 A.M. on Mondays. On working days any demarcator discovered idling between 9 A.M. and 4.30 P.M. will be severely punished.

the

26. Fields on either side of a stream or road must be demarcated separately.

27. Any demarcator or demarcation coolie who himself or through his family has any interest in property in a district assigned to him must report the matter before the district is opened, any disregard of this rule will be severely dealt with.

   28. Any demarcator or coolie wishing to deal in land in the New Territory whether by sale, lease or mortgage, will first ask permission. Any redemptions of mortgage must be at once reported.

   29. All demarcators will make a weekly report to the inspector in charge of them; on finishing or commencing a district, they will report to the inspector at once. On finishing a district a demarcator will report himself at the office, unless otherwise instructed.

   30. No leave in the ordinary course except at Chinese New Year and at Christmas time will be given during the field season. Any demarcators applying for leave mest give a fortnight's notice.

31. All such offences as laziness, wilful disobedience of orders or of any of these rules, absence from duty without leave, carelessness in demarcating holding boundaries or giving out Lot No. tickets, may be punished summarily and at the discretion of the Member of the Land Court with a fine not exceed- ing $5.00 in any one case. Fines to go to a reward fund to be divided at the end of the year among those members of the Demarcation staff whose work has been most satisfactory. Any demarcator or demarcation coolie who is fined may if he likes appeal to His Excellency the Governor; whose decision shall be final.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

Appendix No. 2.

REPORT ON THE SURVEY OF THE NEW TERRITORY, AT THE CLOSE OF THE FIELD SEASON OF

1900-01-15TH JULY, 1901.

  1. The Topographical Survey of the New Territory has been completed, and about 500 square- miles including islands has been mapped on the scale of 1 inch to a mile. The nature of the country is broken and mountainous, and the greater part is some of the most difficult country to survey that I have ever seen.

2. The Triangulation on which the mapping has been based is also completed. Details have been given in

    my previous reports, which it is useless to repeat here. A memorandum on the marking of stations visited in the course of the Triangulation is attached as an Appendix.

3. The Cadastral Surveys are in progress, and will probably not be completed for another two years to come. I give, briefly, the results obtained :-

(i.) In 1899-1900 an area was surveyed, on the scale of 16 inch to a mile, of 41,000 acres.

(i.) In 1900-01 the outturn has amounted to an area, on the scale of 32 inches-1 mile,. of 8,638 acres containing 134,166 fields, the average size of each of the latter being .06 of an acre and about a third part of a mau. A further small area of 650 acres has been surveyed on the scale of 16 inches-1 mile; and re-survey was necessary of one block rejected at the close of the Season of 1899-1900, which amounted to about 200

acres.

4. Adding those figures, we obtain a total of 9,488 acres, or, say, in round numbers, of 9,500 acres as the result of the Cadastral Survey operations in the past Field Season: and the great decrease in the outturn is chiefly due to the system adopted of carrying on the demarcation of holdings pari passu with that of the Survey. But if the purposes of the Rent Roll are served by working on these lines, the system must be continued-as I have shewn in a previous report-and if the Land Court finds. that it suits them to have the maps made and the titles of holdings registered at one and the same time, there is no other course open than to continue working on these lines. Indian experience does not help one very much, as the conditions are so very different in the New Territory, and it is better and safer, in the absence of all previous information such as a summary settlement, would provide, to work slowly, establishing every step taken in the preparation of the Rent Roll, with the map of individual holdings at hand for purposes of reference.

5. The traverses, upon which the Cadastral Surveys are made, have been advanced very far ahead of the Detail Surveys; and probably less than a fifth, and even a sixth, of the New Territory has been not yet traversed. The portions of the mainland where no traverses have been run, are that narrow peninsula which separates Mirs Bay from Junk Bay, and whose southern extremity forms the northern limit of the Fut-i-mun Pass, or outlet into the open sea, the valleys which lie at the heads. of Tsin Wàn and Gin Drinkers Bay, the southern slopes of Taimoshan, and the Shing Mun Valley, and the valley of Lam-Kwat-An. On the Lantau Island the cultivated areas round Tung Chung have been surveyed and also in the vicinity of Mui-wo. The other cultivated areas on this island have not yet been prepared by means of traverses for the Detail Survey for cadastral purposes.

During the forthcoming winter the traverse operations should be completed, they should be commenced about the 1st of October, and the end of the Field Season should see them completed and the stations marked.

The country that will be dealt with in the forthcoming Season and the one to follow, is the most broken and rugged part of the New Territory. The only open portions are insignificant and will be taken up in a few blocks each, they lie at the head of Tide Cove and Tsin Wan, and Gin Drinkers Bay, and along the south coast of Lantau; the remainder is mountainous and difficult.

extending the Triangulation.

Sometimes it has been necessary to determine the bearing of a station in addition to fixing an initial point of a traverse, and in a sequence with the latter; then for such a point a mark stone of type No. 2 has been used; and one of No. 1 for marking the initial point; therefore whenever a mark stone of

type No. 1 is met with, it may be safely assumed that it marks a station of observation of the Triangulation of the New Territory.

   When a solitary mark stone of type No. 2 is discovered, it denotes, also, the site of a station of the New Territory Triangulation.

   But when two mark stones--one of class 1 and another of class 2-are found in close proximity to one another, then the former marks the station of observation, and the latter a station for the traverses whose bearing with reference to the station of observation, has been determined.

As a rule most of the minor points fixed by means of observations taken from stations to them, have been marked by cairns in the first instance. But in the absence of a cairn the highest part of a summit fixed by Triangulation can safely be taken as having been the point observed to; and here, if it is necessary, a cairn may be erected. Conspicuous peaks, or rocks on hill tops, easily seen and recognised from a distance need no special marks being placed or cut on them; and none have been left in such cases.

REPORT ON WORK EXECUTED BY THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT IN THE

NEW TERRITORY, DURING THE YEAR 1901.

Sai Kung Police Station.

This station was completed at a total cost of $13,650.60 of which $11,506.65 was expended during

Sheung Shui Police Station.

The contract was let in the end of May and good progress had been made by the close of the year. A sum of $11,238.44 was expended and it is anticipated that the work will be finished by the end of March, 1902.

Tai O Police Station.

This station was commenced about the same time as the one at Sheung Shui, but very little progress was made owing to the financial difficulties of the contractor. Mr. CHAN YEW TING has now taken over the contract under agreement with the Government and more satisfactory progress is being made.

Ping Shan Police Station.

   The drains of this station have been extended for some distance from it, to a concrete sump which is periodically, cleansed out. This arrangement for disposing of sullage water is found to act satisfac- torily. Cost $138.70.

710

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

Au Tau Police Station.

Here also the drains have been extended for some distance in order to overcome a nuisance which had arisen through the disposal of the sullage water too near the building. Cost $264.

An unsuccessful attempt was made to obtain a water supply by, sinking a well near the station, but as no water was met with, it has to be filled in again. Cost $124.75.

San Tin Police Station.

A mez-

   This is a native dwelling which has been adopted for the accommodation of the Police. zanine floor was put in to form a living room for the Sergeant in charge, a new cell built and various other alterations and additions made at a cost of $99.72. The drains are now being put in order.

Tải Po Police Station.

The drains have been extended and improved at a cost of $568.04.

Starling Inlet Police Station (Sha Tau Kok.)

In this case it was found advisable to extend the drains so as to discharge into the tidal waters. The work was carried out at a cost of $294.72.

Offices and Quarters at Tái Pó.

   These consist of matsheds which required a good deal of repair, principally owing to damage caused by storms, the cost has been $1,549.57.

The drains at the Quarters have been put in order and extended to the sea and the concreting of the ground surface has been renewed and partly rendered with cement at a cost of $537.46.

   A well which had been sunk near the Quarters was lined with rubble and properly finished off at a cost of $40.30.

The tennis-court was enlarged and re-laid with turf at a cost of $247.15.

Leper Village near Au Tau.

Twelve wooden huts for lepers were erected and enclosed in a bamboo fence at a cost of $2,199.70. The lepers formerly occupied some miserable hovels situated in a swampy piece of land.

Tải Tỏ liead.

   This road is completed and open to traffic for a distance of 13 miles. Good progress has been made with the remaining portion which extends to Tái Pó.

Some delay has been caused through the non-arrival of iron joists ordered from England, and required for the construction of the bridges, a number of which are in readiness to receive them; but these are now due and will be speedily put in place. The filling to form the embankments across which the road will be carried to Tái Pó is being obtained by cutting the top off a small island in order to form a site for the erection of permanent quarters. The island occupies a very suitable position for the purpose and will be connected with the mainland by the embankments referred to.

                                                          The amount expended on the road during 1901 was $74,648.86.

Telephone Service.

   Several improvements have been made in the telephone service, the principal being the fixing of a new annunciator at Tai Pó and the establishment of separate wires to Au Tau and Ping Shan in place of the single wire which formerly served both places.

Maintenance of Buildings.

   Considerable repairs were effected at the various old Customs Stations and other premises occupied as Police Stations. The total expenditure under this heading was $5,928.

Five new Police Stations have now been completed and two more are in progress.

Waterworks Intake.

A number of improvements were effected at the Cheung Sha Wan Intake in order to utilize more fully the supply of water available from this source. By making some modifications in the distribution mains, the entire districts of Yaumati and Mongkok-tsui have now been supplied from this important auxiliary of the Kowloon Waterworks, thus leaving the supply from the former works, all of which has to be pumped, available for the districts of Tsim Sha Tsui and Hunghom.

MEDICAL DEPARTMENT,

TAI Pó, 24th January, 1902.

   SIR, I have the honour to submit to you my annual report upon my medical work done in the New Territory during the year ending December 31st, 1901.

   The total number of patients attended by me during the year was 2,096, of which 1,482 were new and 614 old cases. They are shown in the following table:-

   The number of cases in the Civil Departments was much greater than that of the previous year. This was due to the increase of the staffs, as, besides the magistracy already existed, the Land Court and the headquarter of the survey party are both stationed at Tái Pó during the whole period.

   The number of cases of vaccination performed by me during the year. was 142. This was done both at Tái Pó and other out-stations, notice had been put up in front of each station in the winter season, giving the dates of my visits and informing the villagers of free vaccination.

   Epidemic of small-pox had once been prevalent in Sun Chün, village of Sha Tau Kok District, in April of the year, 13 out of the 16 children in the village had taken the disease and were treated by me in their own village. They were all improved under treatment, having no fatal cases.

                                                            In order to prevent its further spread, I vaccinated every member of the village and the epidemic was brought to an end.

   In adition to my list of visits of the previous year, the Leper Asylum was to be visited from November. This leper settlement was formerly composed of a small island situated on a swamp and was liable to be flooded in case of typhoon. The new Asylum is built by the Government on the hill side just opposite to the old one. Since their removal into the new establishment, I have regularly visited them once weekly and treated them accordingly.

   The health of the Police staff was generally much improved this year. The number of cases of malarial fever had been much smaller than that of the year previously. Preventive treatments had been vigorously carried out during the season by the use of quinine and arsenic. The use of the former had been met with a good effect, and of the latter practically ineffectual as a preventive measure.

   One European Constable, JAMES NEW, died of sun-stroke on June at Sheung Shui Station This was the only case of death among the Police, which took place in the New Territory during the

year.

I had examined four cases of committing suicide, 2 cases were committed through the use of a. poisonous herb named "Ho Min Tang," one by hanging, and the other by opium poisoning.

The poisonous leaves found in the stomach of the deceased by post-mortem examination, were forwarded to the Government Analyst for chemical examination and were found to contain the active principle of the alkaloid gelsemine.

712

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

This herb grows wild on the hill and can be found anywhere. It is alleged that only about three leaves would be sufficient for a fatal dose. In committing suicide this herb is most commonly used among the Hakka people here, as it is easily available and requires only a small quantity to cause rapid collapse and death.

I have the honour to be,

Dr. J. M. ATKINSON,

Principal Civil Medical Officer,

Appendix No. 5.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 1st March, 1902.

   There has been a marked diminution in the number of malarial fever cases from the Police Stations in the New Territory during the year 1901.

On comparing the admissions to the Hospital for this class of disease for the last two years we find that the nine Police Stations to the North of the range of hills bounding Kowloon give the follow- ing figures:-

In other words the percentage of malarial fever admissions to Hospital from the New Territory dropped from 90 per cent. in 1900 to 52.5 per cent. in 1901.

This was undoubtedly occasioned to a great extent by the active prophylactic treatment which was commenced on the 1st May, 1901, and continued up to 1st November of that year.

   This varied. At those stations marked* Professor KocH's method was used, viz., one gramme of quinine being given daily for two days, followed by an interval of five days without any quinine, and so on; at those marked † a daily dose of three or five grains of quinine was given, whereas at one, station, viz., Au Tau 3 grain of arsenic was given twice daily.

The result of this prophylactic treatment is still further shewn by a Table marked A which I attach showing all the cases of malarial fever at the Police Stations in the New Territory from March to December, 1900 and 1901, and the prophylactic treatment adopted.

This return includes the cases treated by the Resident Medical Officer in addition to those sent in to Hospital.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

713

  From this it will be seen that quinine is the best prophylactic, and of the two methods, if anything, the daily administration of a small dose has been followed by the best results.

i

Another important factor in this diminution is that the Police were in 1901 housed in permanent buildings. At Sha Tau Kok in 1900 the Police were under canvas.

  Recognised precautions were more fully taken against malaria; the neighbourhood of the Police Stations were kept as free as possible of Anopheles; the Police were instructed how to recognize Anopheles pools and were shewn the methods of destroying the larvæ; all standing collections of water were as far as possible got rid of and many trees eucalyptus and others were planted.

  In August, shortly after my return, I visited the New Territory accompanied by the Captain Superintendent of Police; we inspected Tái Pó and Sha Tau Kok.

  I recommended that the numerous paddy fields adjoining the Police Station at Sha Tau Kok should, if possible, be resumed and reclaimed, there is constantly stagnant water on them which forms excellent breeding places for Anopheles.

I also recommended that, to better drain the swampy grounds around the Police Stations, numbers of eucalyptus trees should be planted, what is required is to plant these trees on the damp areas at the base of the hills, not on the slopes of the hills.

  Again, in October with the Acting Captain Superintendent of Police, I visited Cheung Chau, Tai O', Ping Shan and Au Tau.

  As plague has been prevalent at Cheung Chau, I recommended that steps be taken to kill off the rats, which are still prevalent there; this has been done.

  We arranged for the transfer of the lepers from the Swampy Island near Au Tau Police Station to the buildings erected for their habitation on the hill side opposite to their old abode; they have since been transferred and are visited weekly by the Resident Medical Officer.

  Attached is a return marked B from Dr. THOMSON'S Report on the "Examination of Mosquitoes showing the number of mosquitoes examined by him from the several Police Stations during the year ending 30th September, 1901. This conclusively shows, as was to be expected, that the station where most malarial fever cases occur, the proportion of Anopheles found is also greater.

  I also enclose the Report of the Resident Chinese Medical Officer.* In my opinion there should be at least two resident Medical Officers, one for the East and another for the West of the New Territory, the one in the West might be stationed at Un Long or Ping Shan, and the one in the East as at present at Tái Pó; the work is much too arduous for one, the distances he has to travel are very great and it is practically impossible for him to do justice to the large resident population; in addition to this he can never get away on leave.

Another important requirement is a registration of births and deaths.

  It must be remembered that all the Chinese living in the New Territory are British subjects and several cases of infanticide have already occurred; in order to check the native practice of abandoning their female children, some such measure is necessary.

I would suggest that each Police Station should be a place for registration.

SANITARY Board Offices, March 17th, 1902.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit, for the information of the Board, the following Report upon the health of the Colony for the year 1901.

AREA.

   The portion of the Colony within the jurisdiction of the Sanitary Board comprises (1) the island of Hongkong which has an area of 29 square miles and on which are situated the City of Victoria and the villages of Shaukiwan, Quarry Bay, Aberdeen and Stanley; and (2) that portion of territory on the mainland between the shore and the first range of the Kowloon Hills-extending from Lyeemoon Pass on the east to Laichikok on the west,-with a sea-frontage of about ten miles and an area of 18 square miles. The City of Victoria is built on the northern shore of the island, while the Harbour, which separates it from Kowloon on the mainland, is about a mile and a third wide at its narrowest part.

The domestic buildings of the City of Victoria number 9,046 (exclusive of Barracks and Police Stations) of which, 872 are non-Chinese dwellings while there are also some 130 European dwellings in the Hill District.

and an

This shows an increase of 134 non-Chinese dwellings as compared with the previous year, increase of 312 Chinese dwellings. The plans of 1,369 new buildings and of alterations to 1,497 existing buildings have passed through my hands during the year, with a view to seeing that they complied with the Public Health Ordinances of the Colony. During the previous year plans of 1,319 new buildings and of alterations to 3,186 existing buildings were received, so that the records of the past year show a slight increase in the number of new buildings planned, and a large decrease in the number of alterations to existing buildings. This latter results from the very considerable number of alterations in regard to open spaces, which followed the passing of the Insanitary Properties Ordinance No. 34 of 1899, for in 1899 plans of alterations to but 772 existing buildings passed through my hands. The number of new houses completed during the year has been 796.

CLIMATE.

   The average monthly temperature throughout the year has been 72.1° F. as compared with 71.6° F. during 1900; the maximum monthly temperature was attained in July when it reached 82.2° F. and the minimum monthly temperature was recorded in the month of February being 54.8° F.

The highest recorded temperature during the year was 92.7° F. on August 3rd and the lowest was 38.4° F. on February 4th.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

   The total rainfall for the year was 55.78 inches as compared with 73.73 inches in 1900 and an average of 77.2 inches during the past ten years. The wettest month was May with 14.10 inches, while there were also 14 inches of rain in the month of August; the driest month was January with only 0.685 inch. The greatest amount of rain which fell on any one day was 4.23 inches on April 7th, while no rain fell on 213 days of the year; the relative humidity of the atmosphere throughout the year was 75 per cent. as compared with 77 per cent. in the previous year. The average daily amount of sunshine throughout the year was 5.5 hours and on 35 days only was no sunshine recorded.

   The above figures have been calculated from the monthly Reports issued by the Director of the Hongkong Observatory; the temperatures are taken at 108 feet above mean sea-level and at 4 feet above the grass.

The following table shows how uncertain has been the rain fall during the past twenty years:-

In my Annual Report for 1899 I showed that the average rainfall during the decade ending that year was eleven and a half inches less than the average rainfall during the preceding decade. The above figures show that the average has fallen still further, for during the past decade it has been nearly fifteen and a half inches less than during that ending 1891. Any estimates of water-supply, therefore, based on previous records of rainfall are subject to a very considerable discount from this cause, while a continuous supply can only be assured by taking, as the basis of calculation, the lowest annual rain- fall of, say, the last twenty years.

GENERAL SANITARY CONDITION.

   The Colony was again visited during the year by an epidemic of Bubonic Plague and in conse- quence it was decided to obtain from England the services of two distinguished experts in sanitation to report on its general sanitary condition; Professor SIMPSON, M.D., F.R.C.P., and Mr. OSBERT CHADWICK, M. INST. C.E., C.M.G., were accordingly appointed and are to visit the Colony early in 1902 and, it is hoped that the adoption of their recommendations will do much to free the Colony from these annual visitations of Bubonic Plague.

  During the year the various existing Public Health Ordinances were consolidated, with but verbal amendments; with a view to prevent the raising of existing buildings to an inordinate height a short Ordinance was passed (No. 30 of 1901) providing that no existing building which does not at present exceed in height one and a half times the width of the street on which it fronts shall be so raised as to exceed that limit of height, and that no new building shall be erected to a greater height than one and a half times the width of the street on which it fronts, unless the building at present occupying such site exceeds that height, in which case the new building may be carried up as high as the existing one so long as the scale contained in Ordinance 15 of 1894 is not exceeded. In other words an attempt has been made to check any further increase in the excessive surface crowding of the City, but it yet remains for some measure to be introduced which shall reduce this surface crowding to within more reasonable limits.

The question of the resumption of insanitary or obstructive buildings has been left in abeyance pending the Report of the experts, but it is essential that many of these buildings should be removed in order to open up, and admit light and air, to the many enclosed courts and alleys which abound in the City of Victoria.

There is still most urgent need for additional urinals throughout the Colony, only two or three new ones having been erected in connection with Chinese public latrines during the year 1901, while many more public latrines are also needed, to supply the wants of the Chinese community.

POPULATION.

721

The population of the Colony at the Census taken in January, 1897, was 248,880, while at the Census taken in January, 1901, it was (exclusive of the New Territories) 283,975. This represents an increase of 35,095 within a period of four years and affords a remarkable proof of the rapid pro- gress of the Colony.

     The increase is, of course, very largely Chinese and is to be found mainly in Kowloon, where the population has risen from 26,442 to 42,976, and in the City of Victoria, where it has risen from 160.273 to 175,056.

The increase in the non-Chinese Civil population during the four years amounted to 951. The following is the estimated population to the middle of 1901 :-

     The total strength of Troops in Garrison on June 30th, 1901, was 87 British Officers and 2,035 British Warrant Officers, N.C.O.'s and men, with 51 Indian Officers and 2,603 Indian Warrant Officers, N.C.O.'s and men. There were also 169 British women and children, 202 Indian women and children and 315 camp followers, making a total of 5,462. At the Census taken in January, 1901, there were 5,501 Officers and men and 2,139 camp followers resident in the Colony, making a total of 7,640.

     The total strength of the British Fleet on the China Station on June 30th, 1901, was 11,598, as compared with 7,110 in the previous year and 7,738 in 1899. At the Census taken in January, 1901, the actual number of Officers and men of His Majesty's Navy present in the Colony was 5,597, and the estimated average number resident here (ashore and afloat) throughout the year 1901 is put at 5,074.

     The Chinese boat population of the Colony (including 1,180 Chinese on the merchant ships in the Harbour) numbered 41,280 at the Census taken in January, 1901, and has been estimated at 42,408 to the middle of the year 1901.

The following is the number of registered boats belonging to the Port:-

Fishing and Trading Junks,

Cargo-boats, Lighters, Sampans, etc..

5,118

7,281

..12,399

The number of boats licensed in 1900 was 12,367, and in 1899 it was 10,885.

     These figures do not include 1,393 fishing junks licensed for Cheung Chau, 1,018 for Tai (), 1,357 for Tai Po and 166 for Deep Bay, as these villages on the New Territory do not come within the jurisdiction of the Sanitary Board nor are they included in the estimates of population.

The population of the Colony is classified primarily into Chinese and non-Chinese, the former being greatly in the majority. The non-Chinese comprise a white population of 11,923 of whom 4,558 are civilians and the remainder belong either to the Army or the Navy. The coloured races (non-Chinese) number 5,002 and include East Indians, Malays, Filipinos, Eurasians and a few Africans and Japanese, while the Asiatic Portuguese alone number 1,983.

The Civil population is essentially a male adult one as no less than 72.9 per cent. of the Chinese population and 62.5 per cent. of the non-Chinese Civil population are males while more than half the Civil population (50.2 per cent. of the Chinese and 56.4 per cent. of the non-Chinese) are between the ages of 20 and 45. The proportion of the population in Great Britain between these ages is only 33.8 per cent. The proportion of males at the Census taken in 1897 was among the Chinese 70.9 per cent., and among the non-Chinese 58.6 per cent. and the reduction in the proportion of women both among Chinese and non-Chinese is, I consider, the direct result of the greatly enhanced cost of living of late years, and the increasing difficulty in obtaining suitable accommodation for families.

   The City of Victoria is divided into ten Health Districts with an Inspector of Nuisances in charge of each District; there are also five Senior Inspectors for the City, each of whom has the general supervision of two Districts while there are also special Inspectors for the work of disinfection, for prosecutions, for the control of the Chinese cemeteries, for drainage work and other matters. loon is similarly divided into two Health Districts, with an Inspector of Nuisances in charge of each, but has already become so important a suburb-the population having doubled in the last five years- that I think there is now ample scope there for at least three Inspectors and the district should be sub- divided accordingly.

   The following table gives the number of Chinese houses and floors (ie., separate Chinese dwellings in most cases) and the number of inmates per house and per floor in the City of Victoria:-

I have in previous Reports called attention to the acute surface crowding which exists in the more central districts of the City. District No. 5 shows more than 800 persons to the acre while Districts 6, 9, 4, 8 and 7 are also far too densely packed with human beings, and it is essential to the welfare of this Colony that a remedy should be speedily found and put into operation for this insani- tary condition. So far as I have been able to ascertain, there is no other City in the world which has 129 persons to the acre and yet this is the density of population of the City of Victoria as a whole, that is to say including all the outlying vacant lands, and the villages, Race Course and Cemeteries in No. 1 Health District, the Public Gardens and all the vacant Military land in Nos. 2 and 3 Health Districts, and all the unoccupied hill-side below the upper limit of the City Health Districts (i.e., about 450 feet above high water mark). Glasgow which is the most densely crowded of the large cities of the United Kingdom has but 61 persons to the acre.

    It will also be seen from the first table that Health Districts 2 and 9, in which districts the outbreaks of Bubonic Plague almost invariably commence and are the most severe, show the greatest number of -occupants per floor, namely 9.1 as compared with an average for the City of 7.6; this, in itself, is ex- cessive, although well within the limit of thirty square feet of floor space per head, which is all that is, at present, legally required in any dwelling in the Colony, except within the European District Reser- vation area, where each person must be allowed one thousand cubic feet of air space-thus necessitating a larger floor area.

The following table gives a comparative statement of the number of persons per acre in each of the Health Districts of the City in 1897 (when a provisional Census was taken) and in 1901 (when the decennial Census was taken) and shows that during the past four years the number of persons per acre has increased from 117.4 to 129.3, and that almost all the central Health Districts of the City are daily becoming more crowded:-

This is equal to a general birth-rate of 3.6 per 1,000 as compared with 3.3 in 1900, 4.3 in 1899 and 4.7 in 1898.

The birth-rate among the non-Chinese community alone was 11.9 per 1,000 as compared with 15.1 per 1,000 in 1900.

The nationalities of the non-Chinese parents were as follows:-British 104, Portuguese 72, Indian 37, German 13, Eurasian 4, French 4, Jew 2, American, Russian, Philipino and Malay one each.

!

The preponderance of male births over female births is still very marked among the Chinese com- munity, being in the proportion of 186 male births to every 100 female births. The proportion among the non-Chinese community was 107 to 100 as compared with 137 to 100 in the previous year.

burial orders. It has been customary, therefor

    The number of the Chinese births registered does not give an accurate record of the total number of births of Chinese that have occurred in the Colony, for many of the infants that die during the first month or so of life remain unregistered, although their deaths must be registered to obtain the necessary to add to the registered births the number of in- fants of one month old and under that die in the various Convents, or are found by the Police in the streets or in the Harbour. The number during 1901 was 128 males and 194 females making a total of 322, and the addition of these figures to the registered Chinese births gives a total of 1,410 as compared with 1,485 during the previous year. The corrected birth-rate is, therefore, 4.7 per 1,000, while among the Chinese alone the rate becomes 4.2 per 1,000. The total Chinese births as calculated in the above manner show a proportion of only 139 male births to every 100 female births, while the dead bodies of infants found in the streets or left at the doors of the Convents show 66 males to every 100 females, the explanation being that the Chinese have very little regard for the value of the lives of female children.

    It is satisfactory to find that, in spite of the persistence of Bubonic Plague, the death-rate shows a considerable reduction during the past ten years as compared with the previous decade, but there can be no question that this rate is still exceedingly high, having regard to the fact that the population is so largely composed of young adults. Much yet remains to be done in the matter of the improvement of the sanitary surroundings of the inhabitants, and every substantial step in that direction must result in a reduction in the general death-rate.

    The total number of deaths among the Chinese community was 6,670 which is equal to a death- rate of 23.77 per 1,000 as compared with 24.1 per 1,000 during the previous year. It is important to note that the death-rate among Chinese women is very much higher than among Chinese men; the total deaths of Chinese women amounted to 2,693 which gives a death-rate of 35.42 per 1,000, while the deaths among Chinese men totalled 3,969, equal to a rate of 19.40 per 1,000; in eight of the deaths the sex was not recorded-the most probable explanation of this great discrepancy in the death-rates for the two sexes is that the men are more readily able to leave the Colony when sick, and it be

                                                       may assumed therefore that were it not for this circumstance the general death-rate among the Chinese would not be less than 35 to 36 per 1,000.

    The deaths registered among the non-Chinese numbered 412 of which 302 were from the Civil population, 96 from the Army, and 14 from the Navy; this is equal to a death-rate of 20.5 per 1,000.

    The nationalities of the deaths were as follows:-Indian and Malay 160, British 116, Portuguese 86, Japanese 10, German 9, American 8, French 7, Spanish 5, Jews 3, and Italian, Danish, Austrian, Swede, Chilian, American Negro and Eurasian, one each.

UNCERTIFIED DEATHS.

    During the year there were 563 deaths registered in the City of Victoria, of Chinese who had not been attended by a medical man, as compared with 533 during the previous year and 463 in 1899; in every such case the relatives of the deceased are interviewed and the dead bodies inspected

and where necessary sent to the Government Mortuary for further examination, with the result that no less than 43 cases of Bubonic Plague were thus discovered and the premises dealt with in the usual manner. In previous Annual Reports I have urged that this work should be done by a duly qualified Licentiate of the Hongkong College of Medicine, attached to the Sanitary Staff, and I am still of the opinion that a native practitioner, whether Chinese, Japanese or Indian, should be permanently attached to the staff for such duties as these, which are really outside the scope of an Inspector of Nuisances.

AGE DISTRIBUTION OF DEATHS.

The number of deaths of infants under one year of age was 1,315, or 18.6 per cent. of the total deaths, a rate which is far too high even for a tropical climate. The infant death-rate among the non-Chinese community during the year has been 129.2 per 1,000 as compared with 122.6 per 1,000 in the previous year, but among the Chinese population the number of deaths of infants under one year of age exceeds the total number of births, even when all deaths under one month are assumed to have been unregistered; this means either that a very large number of births remain unregistered or else that a large number of infants are brought into the Colony from the mainland and die here. In either case the condition is a most unsatisfactory one and calls for some remedial measure.

                                           The great bulk of these deaths of Chinese infants are attributed to diseases of a convulsive type, but I am inclined to think that further investigation might show that not a few of these deaths from convulsions are due to malarial infection, and it was on those grounds that I urged the Board during the past year (and on several previous occasions) to obtain authority to make the fullest investigation into the many deaths of infants which are returned from the various Convents in the City. Should the bulk of these deaths prove to be directly or indirectly due to malaria, we would have the strongest grounds for urging the immediate adoption of a comprehensive scheme for dealing with all Anopheles pools in in the vicinity of domestic dwellings, for it must be borne in mind that by such means not only would the infant death-rate be materially reduced, but the incidence of malaria among the European residents of the Colony would be proportionately minimized, as it has been found in other Colonies that it is mostly the native infants that furnish the necessary malarial organisms to the Anopheles mosquito.

DEATHS AMONG THE CHINESE.

CHEST DISEASES.

   The total number of deaths among the Chinese from respiratory diseases was 1,287, or 19.3 per cent. of the total Chinese deaths. This represents a death-rate from these diseases of 4.6 per 1,000 as compared with 5.1 in 1900. As in former years the death-rate from these causes was heavier among the boat population than among the land population, having been 5.2 per 1,000 among the former as against 4.5 per 1,000 among the latter.

    The number of deaths of Chinese from Phthisis alone was 695, or 54 per cent. of the total deaths from the respiratory discases. Phthisis is intimately associated with overcrowded and insanitary dwellings, and it is a significant fact that while the Phthisis death-rate in the City of Victoria is 2.5 per 1,000, in Kowloon, where the evils of surface crowding have fortunately not yet arisen to any great extent this rate is only 1.3 per 1,000, or very little more than half the City death-rate.

i

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

NERVOUS DISEASES.

727

The deaths of Chinese recorded under this heading number 843, and no less than 583 of these or 69.1 per cent, occurred in infants under one year of age, the alleged causes of death being Tetanus, Trismus and allied disorders of a convulsive type.

The number of deaths from these diseases during the past five years has been as follows:-

1899,

...743

    No less than 674 of these deaths or 90.7 per cent. are returned from one or other of the two Convents, the infants having been left there in a moribund condition. A further reference to these deaths will be found under the heading of "Age Distribution of Deaths."

MALARIAL FEVERS.

    The total number of deaths among the Chinese from the Malarial Fevers was 541, as compared with 887 during the previous year, 532 during 1899, and 506 during 1898; this is equal to a death-rate of 1.9 per 1,000.

The death-rate among the boat population alone, from this cause, was also 1.9 per 1,000.

The training of the nullahs on the outskirts of the City, as recommended in my Report for 1900, is the only practicable means of reducing the death-rate from this cause, while no time should be lost. in securing an extensive European reservation in New Kowloon, within which the native popu- lation, other than a small number of personal servants, should not be permitted to reside, for it has been

• abundantly proved that the native population, and especially native children, constitute the main source of infection of this disease, the poison being conveyed by the Anopheles mosquito.

    Fifteen deaths from Malarial Fevers are recorded as having occurred among the troops, and it would appear, therefore, to be especially necessary that all Barracks should be well isolated from the native population and that the sites should be most carefully selected and maintained free from mosquito breeding pools.

BERI-BERI.

    There were 377 deaths from Beri-Beri among the Chinese during last year, as compared with 361 in 1900, and 197 only in 1899.

    As stated in previous Reports, I incline to the opinion that this disease is attributable to infected food, and most probably to damaged rice or other grain which has been attacked by some fungoid growth.

ACCIDENTS.

    Among the accidental deaths of Chinese will be found 47 as the result of the collapse of buildings-a matter to which I drew attention in my Report for 1900, during which year twenty deaths were so caused. There can be very little doubt that this is a preventible cause of death, and the obvious remedy is a very much greater amount of supervision over the actual work both of build- ing construction and of the repair of buildings, combined with a greater degree of legal respon- sibility imposed upon those who design and carry out such alterations or additions.

INFECTIOUS DISEASES.

The total number of cases of infectious disease reported by registered medical practitioners during the year was 1,847 of which no less than 1,651 were Bubonic Fever (Plague); I have dealt with the outbreak of Bubonic Plague in a special report, and I also attach a tabular statement of the incidence of this disease throughout the year (Appendix A.) The following table shews the number of cases - of the other infectious diseases reported during each quarter of the year:-

   Of these 196 cases no less than 49 are known to have been imported, while in many other cases the source of infection could not be traced as the bodies were found in the streets or in deserted houses. Twenty-five of the imported cases were Enteric Fever, seventeen were Cholera and eight were Small- pox.

   I have no doubt that the question of the medical inspection of vessels, immediately on their entering the Harbour, which has been urged by me year after year, will receive the most careful attention of the sanitary experts, as there can be no doubt that such a provision would protect the Colony from the importation of many cases of infectious disease which are now unrecognized until after landing, or even escape detection altogether.

.

ENTERIC FEVER.

The total number of cases of Enteric Fever reported during the year was 75 as compared with 85 during the previous year; there has been, however, a large increase in the number of European cases, which totalled 47 during last year as compared with 34 in 1900. It is important, to record, however, that no less than 22 of these European cases were imported from neighbouring ports, while one Chinese case and one "other Asiatic" case are also known to have been imported. Most of the Chinese cases are, however, not discovered until after death, and it is then often impossible to obtain any information as to their length of residence in the Colony.

The number of deaths among the Europeans was 14, which gives a case mortality of 29.8 per cent. Four of these Europeans deaths occurred in men from His Majesty's Navy, one from the Army, and five from the Mercantile Marine, leaving four only among the resident civil community. There were four deaths among the "other Asiatics" (all of whom were resident civilians) and sixteen among the Chinese.

There were 20 Chinese cases reported and 6 of these were in children at or under three years of age, while a seventh was in a child of eight years.

Six out of the eight "other Asiatics" cases occurred among Japanese adults, and the case mortality among these "other Asiatics" was 50 per cent.

SMALL-POX.

There was an outbreak of Small-pox in the early part of the year, 42 cases being reported in March and 28 in April; the total number of cases reported during the year being 91. Eleven of these cases occurred in Europeans, of whom one died; there were eight imported cases, two of whom were Europeans, five were Chinese and one other Asiatic.

In

   În consequence of this outbreak a notification was issued by the Government on the representation of the Sanitary Board to the effect that persons could be vaccinated free of cost at the Government

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902.

729

 Civil Hospital, the Tung Wah Hospital, the Alice Memorial Hospital and the Nethersole Hospital while hand-bills were issued urging the Chinese to get vaccinated. Additional vaccinators were also appointed to go from house to house and offer vaccination to the inmates, while, moreover, a large stock of vaccine was obtained from Saigon to supplement the local supply.

   The total number of deaths from this disease during the year was 59, while in 1900 it was 17, and in 1899 it was 35.

   The total number of vaccinations recorded last year was 5,937 as compared with 4,406 in 1900, 6,529 in 1899, and 7,051 in 1898. In my Report for last year, I called attention to the consider- able falling off in the number of vaccinations recorded, and in view of the rapid increase in the population the returns for last year cannot be regarded as satisfactory.

#

   The recommendation made by me in 1897 has been approved during the past year, that a small bonus should be awarded to the Chinese House Surgeons at the Native Hospitals (Tung Wah, Alice Memorial and Nethersole) for all successful vaccinations, with a view to increasing the number of well- vaccinated persons in the Colony and thereby reducing the mortality from Small-pox.

   In March of last year, I took over the duties of Director of the Vaccine Institute tempora- rily from the Colonial Veterinary Surgeon, who was proceeding on leave, and who has since retired from the service through ill-health, and in view of the fact that the lymph issued from that Institution has not always given the best results, I devoted considerable care and attention to this most important work, and am glad to be able to record that all the practitioners who have used the lymph prepared by me have reported that it has been of excellent quality. The number of tubes of vaccine prepared during the year was 8,445, of which I personally prepared 6,707, and the value of this lymph was $4,222.50. Small quantities have been supplied (on payment) to the Military and Naval authorities, to the private practitioners in this Colony and in Canton, and to the American Government at Manila, but the bulk of it has been used in the local Hospitals and the Gaol, while at the end of the year there was a reserve stock of considerably over 3,000 tubes, in anticipation of any outbreak of Small-pox which might occur during the Spring of 1902. In the Spring of 1901, it was found necessary to telegraph to Saigon for $500 worth of vaccine, but this should not, under ordinary circumstances, be necessary as it is quite possible to prepare sufficient lymph at our own Institution to meet all ordinary eventualities. The total number of tubes prepared during 1900 was 3,651.

CHOLERA.

   Seventeen cases of Cholera were imported from Singapore on board the S.S. "Cheung Chew in the month of February, but the disease spread no further. Twelve of the patients died.

DIPHTHERIA.

   Six cases of Diphtheria were reported during the year-the patients all being Asiatic Portuguese. Five of them occurred during the last six weeks of the year and the most probable cause of this was the drought, with the consequent lack of water, and the foul condition of the sewers and storm drains resulting therefrom. Two of the patients died.

PUERPERAL FEVER.

   Seven cases of Puerperal Fever were notified during the year, but fifteen deaths were recorded from this disease-all of them among the Chinese community-while no less than 47 deaths were registered as due to Child-birth, and to morbid conditions incident to parturition. This represents a very serious loss of young adult lives and is undoubtedly due to want of proper attention, and to uncleanly surroundings.

   In previous Reports for 1898, 1899 and 1900, I have called attention to the great want there is in this Colony for some maternity charity, in addition to the wards which are used for this purpose at the Government Civil Hospital, and some attempt will, I hope, be made to meet this want when the new extension to the Tung Wah Hospital is complete. It is possible also that the scheme for the provision of Dispensaries for the Chinese will do something to reduce this very considerable item in our Bills of mortality.

STAFF.

pre-

Dr. WILFRID W. PEARSE, the newly appointed Assistant Medical Officer of Health, arrived from England early in August.

During the year Chief Inspector DANDY unfortunately broke down in health and had to retire from the service; Inspector MACEWEN joined the Department and two of the five new Senior Inspect- ors-Messrs. GRICE and CARTER-arrived from England. Inspector L. E. BRETT was granted a year's leave in England and Inspector KNIGHT was absent on leave for three months, while Inspectors. HOGGARTH and MILLS left the Department.

   A number of temporary Inspectors were engaged by the Government during the epidemie of Bubonic Plague.

The whole staff has worked exceptionally well during the year and much good work has been done.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2ND MAY, 1902. METHOD OF DEALING WITH OUTBREAKS OF BUBONIC FEVER (PLÄGUE).

i

733

   1. Notification.-Cases, of infectious disease are required to be reported at once to the nearest Police Station (Telephone No. 15) or to the Medical Officer of Health (Telephone No. 120) or to the Sanitary Board (Telephone No. 257). This is compulsory on "all persons knowing or having reason to believe that any person has been attacked by or is suffering from" Bubonic Plague, Cholera or Small-pox (Bye-law 5 of the Bye-laws governing Notification of Infectious disease contained in Sche- dule B. of Ordinance 13 of 1901); but it is almost universally evaded by the Chinese and even by the Chinese "Doctors." The penalty for its evasion is $50.

2. Detection of the Sick In the absence of notification this can only be effected by means of house to house visits. The Sanitary Board has power to institute, in addition to the visits of the District Inspectors, such special house to house visits in any district in which either of the abovenamed diseases may prevail, and must define the limits of such district (Bye-law 8 of the Bye-laws governing "Disinfection of Infected Premises" contained in Schedule B. of Ordinance 13 of 1901).

3. Ren oval of the Sick and Dead-Ambulances for the removal of the sick are kept at the various Police Stations, at the Canton Wharf, at the Board's matsheds at Praya East, Praya West, Yaumati and Hunghom, and at the Steam Disinfecting Station in Taipingshan, and sick Chinese are removed in these ambulances to the Tung Wah Hospital on application to the Sanitary Board, the Medical Officer of Health, or the Police, and are there examined by a Chinese Doctor trained in Western medicine and are either drafted at once by him to the Plague Hospital or detained under observation in case of doubt. Non-Chinese cases are almost invariably reported, in the first instance, by a registered medical practitioner and such cases are, on the certificate of the medical attendant, removed direct to the Kennedy Town Hospital. Should such medical attendant certify, however, that the patient "is being lodged and cared for without danger to the public health," he is not removed to Hospital. In making any application for removal, care should be taken to state distinctly whether the patient is alive or dead, for in the case of dead bodies, a coffin or a dead-box is forwarded for the removal. The ambulance is attended by a Chinese constable, or a coloured foreman, who conveys the details concerning the case to the Hospital Authorities. Light well made coffins, contained in closed hand-carts, are now used for the removal of dead bodies to the Government Mortuary; these are kept at the various Police Stations, at the Board's matsheds and at the Steam Disinfecting Station, and information concerning the death is forwarded on a card attached to the body.

   4. Treatment of the Sick.-This is entirely in the hands of the Medical Department. The Govern ment Hospital at Kennedy Town is supplemented by a series of Matshed Hospitals, also at Kennedy Town and by a Matshed Hospital at Mongkoksui (Kowloon), which are managed by the authorities of the Tung Wah Hospital but are under the supervision of the Medical Department.

5. Disinfection of infected premises.-This is carried out by European officers assisted by coloured foremen, Chinese foremen, trained coolies and a varying number of carrying coolies. As soon as it is known that a case of the disease has occurred at any house, a Chinese constable is sent from the nearest Police Station to detain all persons found therein (Bye-law 3 of the Bye-laws governing disinfection of infected premises contained in Schedule B. of Ordinance 13 of 1901), and the officer in charge of the disinfection proceeds to the house and having provided these persons with Government clothing (if they are unable to provide un-infected clothing for themselves) he removes their own clothing, bedding, curtains, and carpets, to the Steam Disinfecting Station, the clothing being tied up in coarse unbleached calico sheets soaked in a solution of chloride of mercury, and conveyed through the streets in closed baskets. New goods, silk clothing which has not been recently worn, furs and leather goods are not removed to the Steam Disinfector, but must as a general rule remain on the premises until they have been fumi- gated. When the clothing, etc., is returned (in the course of some two hours) from the Disinfecting Station, it is handed to the owners who have already vacated the premises, and the Government clothing is returned to the Disinfecting Station to be steamed before it is again used. The people displaced from their homes during the disinfection and cleansing of the premises, (which usually occupies some 5 or 6 hours in all) are at liberty to make use of the Board's matshed shelters until this is complete, but usually proceed with their ordinary avocations or seek shelter in the street or in a neighbour's house. The disinfection of the premises consists in the spraying of the walls with a solution of perchloride of mercury (1 in 1,000) followed by fumigation with free chlorine, obtained by the addition of diluted sulphuric acid to chlorinated lime (1 pint of a 1 in 5 solution of the crude acid to each Ib of the chlo- rinated lime). Floors and furniture are then scrubbed with a solution of one of the coal tar preparations of carbolic acid, and the walls are then lime-washed, chlorinated lime being added to the lime-wash in the proportion of 1 b. to the gallon.

6. Burial of the dead.-This is carried out under the superintendence of one of the Board's European Officers, all bodies being buried at the Kennedy Town Plague Cemetery, unless a special permit has been granted for burial elsewhere.

7. General sanitary precautions.-Chlorinated lime is supplied to all the public latrines for use in the buckets, and the officers of the Board are instructed to see that it is freely used.

A staff of Chinese rat-catchers is maintained who receive a monthly wage of five dollars and a reward of 3 cents for every rat brought in by them; they are supplied with rat-traps and all the ne- cessary apparatus, and towards the end of the year they were bringing in as many as 1,800 rats a week in the city of Victoria alone-the total number of rats paid for during the year 1901 was 77,301.

-Report of the Sanitary Surveyor, for the year 1901.

SANITARY BOARD OFFICES, HONGKONG, 17th February, 1902.

SIR, I have the honour to forward herewith my Annual Report for the

NEW HOUSE DRAINS.

year 1901.

   1. Plans have been deposited and passed by me during the year for the drainage of 1,051 houses. The plans of 741 houses were carried forward from 1900, making a total of 1,792 in hand during the

year.

   2. The drainage of 715 houses has been completed, and the plans for 56 have been cancelled, leaving 1,021 to carry forward to 1902.

   3. In addition to the above, notices for repairs or additions to the drainage arrangements of 147 houses were carried forward from 1900, and new notices were received for 363, making a total of 510 for the year.

Of these, 308 have been completed, leaving 202 to be carried forward to 1902.

4. A summary of the above is appended in tables A, B and C.

INSPECTION OF PRIVATE DRAINS.

   5. The drains and sanitary fittings of 54 buildings have been tested and reported on; of this number, 9 required reconstructing and 45 amending.

   Notices were served on the owners of the above 54 buildings, calling upon them to execute the necessary work, which in each case has been complied with. In addition to the above, 21,482 houses have been inspected by myself or the Drainage Inspector, with the result that minor drainage defects have been discovered in 2,017 instances. Notices have been served on the owner or occupier in each case to carry out the necessary work. Six hundred and sixty-one (661) nuisances have been reported to the Medical Officer of Health, and 417 to the Director of Public Works to be dealt with by them. The drains of 1,181 private houses have been cleansed by the Drainage Overseer.

WATER-CLOSETS AND URINALS.

   6. No new Water-closets have been erected during the year. Urinals with automàtic flushing tanks have been erected in the following licensed public houses, by order of the Board

7. Certificates have been granted during the year for 796 new houses and two additions, cer- tifying that they have been built in accordance with the entire provisions of the Public Health Ordinance of 1901. This is the largest number of new buildings certified in any one year since the records have been kept, viz., 1889. (See Table B.)

CEMETERIES.

8. The Plague Cemetery at Kennedy Town is nearly full, there being room for about 50 more bodies. As an extension could not be very well made, owing to the nature of the ground, a valley at Cheung Sha Wan has been selected for future burials, and the work of laying out this cemetery is now being proceeded with.

Report of the Acting Colonial Veterinary Surgeon, for the year 1901.

-

SANITARY BOARD OFFICES,

HONGKONG, March 20th, 1902.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit, for the information of the Board, the following Report for the year 1901.

IMPORTATION OF LIVE STOCK.

   Occasional cases of Foot-and-mouth Disease have been brought into the Colony to the Depôts during the year from the neighbouring mainland where the disease appears to be more or less endemic, but, by prompt isolation, a liberal use of disinfectants and frequent cleansing of the watering tanks, it has been possible to prevent any spread of the disease.

The quality of the animals brought into the Colony for slaughter has been much above the average during the past year, and this is probably due in part to the greater demand occasioned by the fact. that Hongkong now supplies the Manila market.

ANIMAL DEPÔTS.

   The total number of cattle admitted into the depôts at Kennedy Town during the year was 23,555, as compared with 20,801 during the previous year, while at the Hung Hom Depot the admissions were 5,688, as compared with 5,348 during 1900. Five hundred and seventy-nine cattle were rejected as unfit for slaughtering purposes at Kennedy Town and 380 were rejected at Hung Hom.

   The number of sheep and goats admitted to the Kennedy Town Depôts during the year was 28,818 while 180,377 swine were admitted, as compared with 153,765 during the previous year.

During the year, arrangements were made to close in all the sheep and swine depôts with iron-bars between the roofs and the top of the seven-foot enclosing walls, thus preventing any possibility of theft. ...The accommodation for cattle is still very inadequate and provision should be made in the Estimates for the ensuing year, for at least two additional cattle sheds, while a further shed for pigs will also be needed to keep pace with the rapid increase in the number of animals imported for slaughter.

   It has also been proposed to build a Depôt and Slaughter House between Shaukiwan and Quarry Bay, and a site has already been selected, but the matter has, so far as I am aware, gone no further at present.

SLAUGHTER HOUSES.

   Arrangements were made during the year for the Board to take over the entire control and man- agement of the Slaughter Houses at Kennedy Town from the first day of January, 1902, in lieu of the previous arrangement of leasing the collection of fees to a contractor, and an additional Inspector was also appointed from that date to assist the Inspector in charge in this work. I have every reason to believe that the new arrangement will work smoothly and will result in a considerable increase of revenue to the Government.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2nd 'MAY, 1902.

749

    The Hung Hom Slaughter House will continue to be leased for the present and also the slaughter- ing of animals in the various villages.

    The total number of animals slaughtered at Kennedy Town, Hung Hom, Shaukiwan and Aber- deen during the year was as follows :-

DAIRIES AND CATTLE SHEDS.

    Early in March an outbreak of Rinderpest occurred in one of the sheds belonging to the Dairy Farm at Pokfulam. The shed contained thirty-three head of cattle and twenty-eight of them con- tracted the disease, of which fifteen died. Mr. LADDS reported that the general type of the disease was of a very mild character owing to the fact that he had inoculated the whole of the herd some time previously. The disease did not spread to the remainder of the herd, all of which were re-inoculated at this time as a protective measure, and the outbreak was at an end within three weeks.

    In November a small outbreak of Foot-and-mouth disease occurred in the Wong-nei-cheong Dairy Farm; there were twenty-three cows and three calves on the farm, and twelve cows and one calf contracted the disease; the calf died from the disease and one cow died of injuries contracted by breaking loose when convalescent.

    With the exception of these small outbreaks, nothing of importance occurred in any of the dairy farms of the Colony during the year. The farms and cattle sheds have been regularly inspected by the Inspector of Markets and have been found to be kept in a clean and airy condition and în accordance with the Bye-laws.

MARKETS.

    Central Market.-The lighting of this market was considerably improved by an increase in the height of the windows and by the re-arrangement of the electric light pendants, and may now be regarded as satisfactory so long as the place is kept regularly painted and lime-washed, as this latter is a most important factor in the lighting of such a building.

Western Market.-A start has been made in the matter of the erection of a new Western Market on the Reclamation in front of the Harbour Office and as soon as the building is complete I hope that we shall see the present market, which is not in a sanitary condition, and can hardly be made so, swept away and the space utilized in part for the improvement of the sanitary condition of the neigh- bourhood.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 2nd MAY, 1902.

In January of last year the Board called the attention of the Government to the deficiency in the market accommodation of the City of Victoria, and recommended the erection of temporary markets on vacant sites of Crown land. I understand that this matter is now receiving the attention of the Public Works Department.

.

The market accommodation at Shaukiwan is still very inadequate and a new market is certainly required in that village. An extension of the Wanchai Market, which is far too small to meet the needs of the population of that district, has been planned, but had not been put in hand at the end of the year.

There is still but one Inspector of Markets for the whole Colony, and his duty also comprises the supervision of the Cattle Depôts and Slaughter House in Kowloon. I think the time has come for the Board to strongly urge the appointment of a special Inspector for Kowloon, so that the present Inspector of Markets can devote the whole of his time to the markets in the City and in the villages of Shauki- wan and Aberdeen and to the cattle sheds and dairies on the Hongkong side of the water.

STAFF.

Inspector WATSON remains in charge of the animal depôts and Slaughter Houses at Kennedy Town, and Inspector COTTON carried out the duties of Inspector of Markets during the year, but was appointed to the Depôts and Slaughter Houses from January 1st, 1902, when the new scheme for the management of the latter by the Board came into force. Inspector MACEWEN was appointed Inspector of Markets from the same date.

   Mr. JOHANNSEN has continued to perform the duties of Overseer of the Central Market and has occasionally assisted at the Depôts at Kennedy Town when one or other of the Inspectors has been on

the sick list.

The Government has decided to improve the quarters provided for the Inspector in charge of the Kennedy Town Depôts by the addition of a two-storied wing to the building-thus enabling this officer to have a bed room on an upper floor, which is most desirable in this climate.

SANITARY BOARD.

I have the honour to be,

Your obedient Servant,

By Command,

A. M. THOMSON, Acting Colonial Secretary.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 9th May, 1902.

No. 37.

GENERAL POST OFFICE, HONGKONG, 5th April, 1902.

    SIR,-I have the honour to submit the Annual Report on the Hongkong Post Office for the year 1901.

DEPARTMENTAL CHANGES.

2. Captain HASTINGS, the Postmaster General, after an absence of 18 months in England, returned to the Colony and resumed his duties on the 19th September. Unfortunately he was obliged through illness to remain at home after only a month in office, and, I regret to add, never returned to duty. During his absence I was in charge of the Department.

3. Twenty-eight new appointments were made during the year, and twenty-one clerks resigned or were dismissed. The new appointments included a Deputy Superintendent of the Money Order Office, three Assistant Marine Officers, and a Correspondence Clerk-all of these Officers were very much required with the increased business in the Department as a whole. The principal cause of the resig- nations was the fact that these men alleged that they could secure more remunerative employment, and less hard work, outside the Post Office.

    4. The Postmaster at Shanghai, Mr. SOLLY, obtained his long delayed leave of absence and proceeded to England in April. There was considerable difficulty experienced in arranging for his duties, and the Government were obliged to transfer Mr. DIXON, the Superintendent of the Money Order Office, to act as Postmaster at Shanghai, the latter's place being taken by the Deputy.

5. Both of the Travelling Marine Officers at Shanghai resigned during the year, after but a short period of service, on the ground of the insufficiency of the salary attached to their Office. It was with some difficulty that their places could be efficiently filled.

INTERNATIONAL AND LOCAL CORRESPONdence.

6. A statement of the International and Local Correspondence received and despatched during the year will be found in Table A. It shews a satisfactory increase on the business of the previous year, the totals being-Received: Letters and Postcards (including 107 Insured and 258,720 Registered) 2,453,297; Other articles 1,563,590, and-Despatched: Letters and Postcards (including 153 Insured and 196,190 Registered) 2,639,013; Other articles 789,100.

7. I attach a summary-Table B-showing the number of bags, &c., received and despatched, which also shews an increase on that of 1900. The total number actually dealt with at this Office being Bags 81,269, Packets 8,678, Parcel Post Boxes 4,926, and Loose Letter Boxes 2,258. I have this year been able to give the number of steamers conveying these Mails, viz., 5,914 Inwards and 6,626 Outwards. Included in the former are 44 United States Mail Packets, 27 English P. & O. Contract Packets, 27 Messageries Maritimes Co.'s Packets, 26 German Mail Packets, and 14 Canadian.

year

8. It may be of interest also to mention that during the year the English mails were received at this Office on 2 occasions in 26 days, on 7 occasions in 27 days, on 11 occasions in 28 days, on 18 occasions in 29 days, and on other occasions in 30 to 35 days. On the two occasions referred to, once was by the P. & Ŏ. Contract Packet and the other by a German Mail Packet. Twice during the the mail by the Messageries Maritimes Co. had to be transferred, owing to accidents to their ships,-on one occasion the transfer was made to a steamer of the Japanese European line, at Colombo, and on another to the P. & O. Mail steamer at Singapore. In the last mentioned case the Marine Officer, I am pleased to say, brought both mails sorted to Hongkong.

9. With the exception of the loss of the P. & O. Mail Steamer "Sobraon" while on her

                                      while on her way from Shanghai to Hongkong in April, (on which occasion the mails were fortunately saved and reached Hongkong in time to be despatched by the next German Mail Packet leaving 5 days later), and also on two or three other occasions when there was a delay of a few hours, the Mail Packets left Hongkong at their regular and appointed times. These mails all reached London in good time with the exception of the mail despatched on the 3rd June by the Messageries Maritimes Co.'s steamer "Laos," when, owing to plague on board on her arrival at Marseilles and her being quarantined, the mails were some days late in arriving in London.

768

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 9TH MAY, 1902.

POSTAGE STAMPS.

   10. The usual Statement of Monthly Sales of Stamps at Hongkong will be found in Table C. The total sales for the year amounted to $239,377.49, an advance on the sales of the previous year of no less a sum than $21,765.25. For comparison I may mention that the sales for the ten years pre- vious to this were as follows, and goes to prove that even with the adoption of the Penny Postage the loss sustained in 1899 is being quickly made up :-

1891, .$ 92,275.87

1899,

.$216,791.45

1900,

..$217,612.24

   11. The sales of stamps at the Bristish Post Office at Shanghai and at the British Postal Agencies in China will be found in Table D, and amounted to $84,105.28, an increase of $6,599.12 on the previous year's receipts; the Shanghai Post Office receipts under this head being $38,749.64 in 1901 against $32,027.90 in 1900.

PARCEL POST.

   12. Again this year the Parcel Post business shews a steady advance on the previous one. The total number of those received (including 3,607 Insured) amounted to 43,161, and of those despatched (including 4,424 Insured) amounted to 38,679. Details will be found in Table E.

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE.

13. The Revenue and Expenditure for the year 1901 will be found in Table F. It will be seen that the Revenue received from all sources was $355,912.74, exceeding that of 1900 by $30,309.41, and the Expenditure was $273,685.51, an increase of $38,422.43 on that of previous year. The net balance to the credit of Hongkong Post Office on the year's transactions amounted to $82,227.23.

MONEY ORDERS.

   14. The Money Order business done during the year 1901 was again a large one and exceeded that of the previous year by the sum of $79,762.03. The total amount of Orders issued and paid amounted to $621,381.26 and $560,521.39 respectively. I attach a statement of the year's transactions -Table G.

   15. The sales of Imperial and Local Postal Notes in 1901-Tables H and I-amounted to £6,918.12s. 1d. and $8,093.06 respectively, and exceeded the sales of the previous year-the former by £768.148. 11d. and the latter by $1,691.56. The selling rate of the Imperial Postal Notes ruled high for the greater part of the year owing to the uncertain and frequent fluctuations in the rate of exchange.

person

   16. As already mentioned, a Deputy Superintendent of the Money Order Office was appointed owing to the increasing work in this Branch. This Officer's principal duties consisted of Indian Orders, and the Office was fortunate in being able to transfer an old and experienced employee in the of Mr. Moosa to this work. As will be seen the Orders drawn on India in 1901 exceeded those of the previous year by the large sum of Rs. 101,524. The additional help so much needed had hardly been given before the Superintendent, Mr. DIXON, one of the most capable and efficient officers in the Service, was removed by being transferred temporarily to Shanghai, thereby handicapping the Office in a most

serious manner.

GENERAL.

   17. I think I can fairly claim that the mails were delivered in as short a time after arriving at this Office as could reasonably be expected. I may mention the following averages-delivery to Box- holders by the French Packet was effected in 1 hour and 25 minutes after receipt, by the English Mail in 20 minutes after receipt, by the American Mail in 35 minutes after receipt, and by the German Mail in 1 hour and a quarter.

During the year many improvements were made to the Shanghai Office, and I am pleased to be able to state that this Office is much more used than formerly by the public. In the past it was report- ed they did not receive the courtesy and attention to which they were entitled and consequently went elsewhere.

Many Foreign Post Offices were established in China during the year at places where none formerly existed. At some places this Office had Agencies, but, unfortunately where we had not any, no Offices

not-any, or Agencies have been opened. It is necessary, I think, that Postal Agencies should be established at

Chefoo, Tientsin and Peking, as the large and increasing number of British residents at these places render it only a national right that, providing no appreciable loss be anticipated, they should be given the facility to post in their own offices.

I have the honour to be,

Your obedient Servant,

The Honourable

THE COLONIAL SECRETARY.

SCHEDULE A.

In the following rules:-

**

RULES.

The expression "energy means electrical energy.

The expression "generator" means the dynamo or dynamos or other electrical apparatus used for the generation of energy. The expression "motor" means any electric motor carried on a ·

car and used for the conversion of energy.

The expression "pipe" means any gas or water pipe or other

metallic pipe, structure, or substance.

The expression "wire" means any wire or apparatus used for telegraphic, telephonic, electrical signalling, or other similar purposes.

The expression

current means an electric current exceeding

one thousandth part of one ampere.

1. Any dynamo used as a generator shall be of such pattern and construction as to be capable of producing a continuous current without appreciable' pulsation.

2. One of the two conductors used for transmitting energy from the generator to the motors shall be in every case insulated from earth, and is hereinafter referred to as the "line"; the other may be insulated throughout, or may be uninsulated in such parts and to such extent as is provided in the following rules, and is hereinafter referred to as the "return.'

816

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 16TH MAY 1902.

·

3. Where any rails on which cars run or any conductors laid be- tween or within three feet of such rails form any part of a return, such part may be uninsulated. All other returns or parts of a return shall be insulated, unless of such sectional area as will reduce the difference of potential between the ends of the uninsulated portion of the return below the limit laid down in rule 7.

4. When any uninsulated conductor laid between or within three feet of the rails forms any part of a return, it shall be electrically connected to the rails at distances apart not exceeding 100 feet by means of copper strips having a sectional area of at least one-sixteenth of a square inch, or by other means of equal conductivity.

5. When any part of a return is uninsulated it shall be connected with the negative terminal of the generator, and in such case the ne- gative terminal of the generator shall also be directly connected, through the current indicator hereinafter mentioned, to two separate earth connections which shall be placed not less than 20 yards apart. Provided that in place of such two earth connections the Company may make one connection to a main for water supply of not less than three inches internal diameter, with the consent of the owner thereof and of the person supplying the water, and provided that where, from the nature of the soil or for other reasons, the Company can show to the satisfaction of an inspecting officer of the Govern- ment that the earth connections herein specified cannot be constructed and maintained without undue expense, the provisions of this rule. shall not apply. The earth connections referred to in this rule shall be constructed laid and maintained so as to secure electrical contact with the general mass of earth, and so that an electro-motive force, not exceeding four volts, shall suffice to produce a current of at least two amperes from one earth connection to the other through the earth, and a test shall be made at least once in every month to as- certain whether this requirement is complied with. No portion of either earth connection shall be placed within six feet of any pipe except a main for water supply of not less than three inches internal diameter which is metallically connected to the earth connections with the consents hereinbefore specified.

6. When the return is partly or entirely uninsulated the Company shall in the construction and maitenance of the tramway (a) so se- parate the uninsulated return from the general mass of earth, and from any pipe in the vicinity; (b) so connect together the several lengths of the rails; (c) adopt such means for reducing the difference produced by the current between the potential of the uninsulated return at any other point; and (d) so maintain the efficiency of the earth connections specified in the preceding rules as to fulfil the fol- lowing conditions, viz.:-

(i) That the current passing from the earth connections through the indicator to the generator shall not at any time ex- ceed either two amperes per mile of single tramway line or five per cent. of the total current output of the station. (ii) That if at any time and at any place a test be made by connecting a galvanometer or other current-indicator, to the uninsulated return to any pipe in the vicinity, it shall always be possible to reverse the direction of any current indicated by interposing a battery of three Leclanche cells connected in series if the direction of the current is from the return to the pipe, or by interposing one Leclanche cell if the direction of the current is from the pipe to the return.

In order to provide a continuous indication that the condition (i) is complied with, the Company shall place in a conspicuous position a suitable properly connected and correctly marked current-indicator, and shall keep it connected during the whole time that the line is charged.

The owner of any such pipe may require the Company to permit him at reasonable times and intervals to ascertain by test that the conditions specified in (ii) are complied with as regards his pipe.

7. When the return is partly or entirely uninsulated a continuous record shall be kept by the Company of the difference of potential during the working of the tramway between the points of the uninsu- lated return furthest from and nearest to the generating station. If at any time such difference of potential exceeds the limit of seven volts, the Company shall take immediate steps to reduce it below that limit. 8. Every electrical connection with any pipe shall be so arranged as to admit of easy examination, and shall be tested by the Company at least once in every three months.

**

9. Every line and every insulated return or part of a return except any feeder shall be constructed in sections not exceeding one-half of a mile in length, and means shall be provided for insulating each such section for purposes of testing.

i.

10. The insulation of the line and of the return when insulated, and of all feeders and other conductors, shall be so maintained that the leakage current shall not exceed one hundredth of an ampere per mile of tramway. The leakage current shall be ascertained daily before or after the hours of running when the line is fully charged. If at any time it should be found that the leakage current exceeds one half of an ampere per mile of tramway the leak shall be localised and removed as soon as practicable and the running of the cars shall be stopped unless the leak is localised and removed within 24 hours. Provided that where both line and return are placed within a conduit this regulation shall not apply.

1. The insulation resistance of all continuously insulated cables used for lines, for insulated returns, for feeders, or for other purposes, and laid below the surface of the ground, shall not be permitted to fall below the equivalent of 10 megohms for a length of one mile: A test of the insulation resistance of all such cables shall be made at least once in each month.

L

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 16TH MAY, 1902.

12. Where in any case in any part of the tramway the line is erected overhead and the return is laid on or under the ground, and where any wires have been erected or laid before the construction of the tramway in the same or nearly the same direction as such part of the tramway the Company shall, if required so to do by the owners of such wires or any of them, permit such owners to insert and maintain in the Company's line one or more induction-coils or other apparatus approved by the Company for the purpose of preventing disturbance by electric induction. In any case in which the Company withhold their approval of any such apparatus the owners may appeal to the Governor in Council, who may, if he thinks fit, dispense with such approval.

13. Any insulated return shall be placed parallel to and at a distance not exceeding three feet from the line when the line and return are both erected oyerhead, or eighteen inches when they are both laid underground.

14. In the disposition, connections, and working of feeders the Company shall take all reasonable precautions to avoid injurious interference with any existing wires.

15. The Company shall so construct and maintain their system as to secure good contact between the motors and the line and return respectively.

16. The Company shall adopt the best means available to prevent the occurrence of undue sparking at the rubbing or rolling contacts in place and in the construction and use of their generator and motors.

any

17. In working the cars the current shall be varied as required by means of a rheostat containing at least 20 sections, or by some other equally efficient method of gradually varying resistance.

18. The Company shall, so far as may be applicable to their system of working, keep records as specified below. These records shall, if and when required, be forwarded for the information of the Governor in Council.

    28. Assault occasioning actual bodily harm. Malicious wounding, or inflicting grievous bodily hárm.

29. Offences in connection with the Slave Trade punishable by the laws of both States. Provided that the surrender shall be made only when, in the case of a person accused, the com- mission of the crime shall be so established as that the laws of the country where the fugitive or person accused shall be found would justify his apprehension and commitment for trial if the crime had been there committed, and in the case of a person alleged to have been convicted, on such evidence as, accord- ing to the laws of the country where he is found, would prove that he had been convicted.

In no case can the surrender be made unless the crime shall be punishable according to the laws in force in both countries with regard to extradition. ·

    In no case, nor on any consideration whatever, shall the High Contracting Parties be bound to surrender their own subjects, whether by birth or naturalization.

ARTICLE II.

    In the dominions of His Britannic Majesty, other than the Colonies or foreign possessions of His Majesty, the manner of proceeding shall be as follows:-

1. In the case of a person accused-

    The requisition for the surrender shall be made to His Britannic Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs by the Minister or other Diplomatic Agent of His Majesty the King of the Belgians, accompanied by a warrant of arrest or other equivalent judicial document issued by a Judge or Magistrate duly authorized to take cognizance of the acts charged against the accused in Belgium, together with duly authenticated depositions or statements taken on oath or upon solemn affirmation before such Judge or Magistrate, clearly setting forth the said acts, and containing a description of the person claimed, and any particulars which may serve to identify him.

The said Secretary of State shall transmit such documents to His Britannic Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Home Department, who shall then, by order under his hand and seal, signify to some Police Magistrate in London that such requisition has been made, and require him, if there he due cause, to issue his warrant for the apprehension of the fugitive.

On the receipt of such order from the Secretary of State, and on the production of such evidence as would, in the opinion of the Magistrate, justify the issue of the warrant if the crime had been com- mitted in the United Kingdom, he shall issue his warrant accordingly.

24

When the fugitive shall have been apprehended, he shall be brought before a competent Magis- trate. If the evidence to be then produced shall be such as to justify, according to the law of England, the committal for trial of the prisoner, if the crime of which he is accused had been committed in Eng- land, the Magistrate shall commit him to prison to await the warrant of the Secretary of State for his• surrender, sending immediately to the Secretary of State a certificate of the committal and a report upon the case.

After the expiration of a period from the committal of the prisoner, which shall never be less than fifteen days, the Secretary of State shall, by order under his hand and seal, order the fugitive criminal to be surrendered to such person as may be duly authorized to receive him on the part of the Govern- ment of His Majesty the King of the Belgians.

2. In the case of a person convicted-

    The course of proceeding shall be the same as in the case of a person accused, except that the warrant to be transmitted by the Minister or other Diplomatic Agent in support of his requisition shall clearly set forth the crime of which the person claimed has been convicted, and state the fact, place, and date of his conviction. The evidence to be produced before the Magistrate shall be such as would, according to the law of England, prove that the prisoner was convicted of the crime charged.

    After the Magistrate shall have committed the accused or convicted person to prison to await the order of a Secretary of State for his surrender, such person shall have the right to apply for a writ of habeas corpus if he should so apply, his surrender must be deferred until after the decision of the Court upon the return to the writ, and even then can only take place if the decision is adverse to the applicant.

ARTICLE III.

    In the dominions of His Majesty the King of the Belgians, other than the Colonies or foreign possessions of His said Majesty, the manner of proceeding shall be as follows:-

1. In the case of a person accused-

The requisition for the surrender shall be made to the Minister for Foreign Affairs of His Majesty the King of the Belgians by the Minister or other Diplomatic Agent of His Britannic Majesty, accom-

panied by a warrant of arrest or other equivalent judicial document issued by a Judge or Magistrate duly authorized to take cognizance of the acts charged against the accused in Great Britain, together with duly authenticated depositions or statements taken on oath or upon solemn affirmation before such Judge or Magistrate, clearly setting forth the said acts, and containing a description of the person claimed, and any other particulars which may serve to identify him.

   The Minister for Foreign Affairs shall transmit the warrant of arrest, with the documents thereto annexed, to the Minister of Justice, who shall forward the same to the proper judicial authority, in order that the warrant of arrest may be put in course of execution by the Chamber of the Council (Chambre du Conseil) of the Court of First Instance of the place of residence of the accused, or of the place where he may be found.

The foreigner may claim to be provisionally set at liberty in any case in which a Belgian enjoys that right, and under the same conditions.

The application shall be submitted to the Chamber of the Council (Chambre du Conseil

   The Government will take the opinion of the Chamber of Indictments or Investigation (Chambre des Mises en Accusation) of the Court of Appeal within whose jurisdiction the foreigner shall have

been arrested.

   The hearing of the case shall be public, unless the foreigner should demand that it should be with- closed doors.

   The public authorities and the foreigner shall be heard. The latter may obtain the assistance of counsel.

Within a fortnight from the receipt of the documents they shall be returned, with a reasoned opinion, to the Minister of Justice, who shall decide and may order that the accused be delivered to the person duly authorized on the part of the Government of His Britannic Majesty.

2. In case of a person convicted-

   The course of proceeding shall be the same as in the case of a person accused, except that the con- viction or sentence of condemnation issued in original, or in an authenticated copy, to be transmitted by the Minister or other Diplomatic Agent in support of his requisition, shall clearly set forth the crime of which the person claimed has been convicted, and state the fact, place, and date of his conviction. The evidence to be produced shall be such as would, according to the Belgian laws, prove that the prisoner was convicted of the crime charged.

ARTICLE IV.

   A fugitive criminal may, however, be apprehended under a warrant signed by any Police Magis, trate, Justice of the Peace, or other competent authority in either country, on such information or complaint, and such evidence, or after such proceedings as would, in the opinion of the person issuing the warrant, justify the issue of a warrant if the crime had been committed or the prisoner convicted in that part of the dominions of the two contracting parties in which he exercises jurisdiction: Pro- vided, however, that, in the United Kingdom, the accused shall, in such case, be sent as speedily as possible before a competent Magistrate. He shall be discharged, as well in the United Kingdom as in Belgium, if within fourteen days a requisition shall not have been made for his surrender by the Diplomatic Agent of the requiring State in the manner directed by Articles II and III of this Treaty.

   The same rule shall apply to the cases of persons accused or convicted of any of the crimes speci- fied in this Treaty, and committed on the high seas on board any vessel of either country which may come into a port of the other.

ARTICLE V.

   If within two months, counting from the date of arrest, sufficient evidence for the extradition shall not have been presented, the person arrested shall be set at liberty. He shall likewise be set at liberty if, within two months of the day on which he was placed at the disposal of the Diplomatic Agent, he shall not have been sent off to the reclaiming country.

ARTICLE VI.

   When any person shall have been surrendered by either of the High Contracting Parties to the other, such person shall not, until he has been restored, or had an opportunity of returning to the country from whence he was surrendered, be triable or tried for any offence committed in the other country prior to the surrender, other than the particular offence on account of which he was surren- dered.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 16TH MAY, 1902.

ARTICLE VH.

823

. No accused or convicted person shall be surrendered if the offence in respect of which his surren- der is demanded shall be deemed by the party upon which it is made to be a political offence, or to be an act connected with (connexe à) such an offence, or if he prove to the satisfaction of the Magistrate, or of the Court before which he is brought on habeas corpus, or to the Secretary of State, that the requisition for his surrender has in fact been made with a view to try or to punish him for an offence of a political character.

ARTICLE VIII

    Warrants, depositions, or statements on oath issued or taken in the dominions of either of the two High Contracting Parties, and copies thereof, and certificates of or judicial documents stating the fact of conviction, shall be received in evidence in proceedings in the dominions of the other, if purporting to be signed or certified by a Judge, Magistrate, or officer of the country where they were issued or taken :

    Provided such warrants, depositions, statements, copies, certificates, and judicial documents are authenticated by the oath or solemn affirmation of some witness, or by being sealed with the official seal of the Minister of Justice, or some other Minister of State.

ARTICLE IX.

The surrender shall not take place if, since the commission of the acts charged, the accusation, or the conviction, exemption from prosecution or punishment, has been acquired by lapse of time, accord- ing to the laws of the country where the accused shall have taken refuge.

ARTICLE X.

    If the individual claimed by one of the two High Contracting Parties in pursuance of the present Treaty should be also claimed by one or several other Powers, on account of other crimes committed upon their respective territories, his surrender shall be granted to that State whose demand is earliest in date; unless any other arrangement should be made between the Governments which have claimed him, either on account of the gravity of the crimes committed, or for any other reasons.

ARTICLE XI.

    If the individual claimed should be under process, or condemned by the Courts of the country where he has taken refuge, his surrender may be deferred until he shall have been set at liberty in due

course of law.

    In case he should be proceeded against or detained in such country on account of obligations contracted towards private individuals, his surrender shall, nevertheless, take place, the injured party retaining his right to prosecute his claims before the competent authority.

ARTICLE XII.

Every article found in the pessession of the individual claimed at the time of his arrest shall, if the competent authority so decide, be seized, in order to be delivered up with his person at the time when the surrender shall be made. Such delivery shall not be limited to the property or articles ob- tained by stealing or by fraudulent bankruptcy, but shall extend to everything that may serve as proof of the crime. It shall take place even when the surrender, after having been ordered, shall be prevented from taking place by reason of the escape or death of the individual claimed.

The rights of third parties with regard to the said property or articles are, nevertheless, reserved.

ARTICLE XIII.

    Each of the High Contracting Parties shall defray the expenses occasioned by the arrrest within its territories, the detention, and the conveyance to its frontier, of the persons whom it may consent to surrender in pursuance of the present Treaty.

ARTICLE XIV.

    The stipulations of the present Treaty shall be applicable to the Colonies and foreign possessions of the two High Contracting Parties.

824

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 16TH MAY, 1902.

The following Rules are published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 12th May, 1902.

A. M. THOMSON, Acting Colonial Secretary.

RULES

FOR THE

MANAGEMENT OF THE CIVIL SERVICE BUNGALOWS, VICTORIA PEAK.

   1. In these Rules the following words and expressions shall have the meanings hereinafter set against them---

Permanent Officer.-A public servant holding an office in the service of the Colony and drawing a salary of one thousand eight hundred dollars a year and upwards.-Officers not being in the regular employ of Government who may be appointed to act for public servants or in temporary posts or Officers engaged for limited periods shall not be included under the term "Permanent Officer," but any Officer engaged by the Govern ment shall, after three years' service, if at the expiration of that term he elect to re- engage for a further period, be considered a "Permanent Officer." Under this definition, no Officer who formerly possessed the right to reside in the Bungalows shall be debarred from the continued exercise of that right.

Summer. The first day of May to the thirty-first day of October inclusive in each year. Married Officer-Widowers whose families are in the Colony shall be included under this designation, which, however, shall not include married Officers whose families are not in the Colony.

Residence.-An Officer shall be deemed to be in residence who shall personally or by his family occupy the Bungalows by night for at least two-thirds of the nights during which the Bungalows may be at his disposal.

Family. Includes the wife or children.

2. The Bungalows are for the use of such Permanent Officers only of the Hongkong Civil Service. as are usually appointed from England.

3. As a rule, no Officer who is either an owner or a lessee of a place of residence at the Peak shall be eligible for a turn at the Bungalows unless he has let the same for three of the summer months at least. The Committee, however, shall investigate all claims to residence in the Bungalows on the part of such Officers, but no decision of the Committee in such cases shall be deemed binding as a precedent.

4. The management of the Bungalows shall be vested in a General Committee of six, to be elected at an annual meeting to be held in April by the Civil Servants entitled to use the Buildings. Three members of the Committee shall be Heads or Assistant Heads of Departments. The Committee shall elect two of their members to be Chairman and Secretary respectively. In the event of any member of the Committee resigning his post or leaving the Colony during his year of office, it shall be lawful for the General Committee to elect a substitute. The names of the General Committee elected at such annual meeting shall be reported to the Colonial Secretary forthwith after the date of election.

    5. Sub-Committees shall control details connected with either block of houses. Both Sub-Com- mittees must be represented at meetings of the General Committee, at which three shall be a quorum. Each Sub-Committee shall elect one of their members to be Secretary and Treasurer.

6. Officers drawing a salary of three thousand dollars a year and upwards will be accommodated at the Pavilions, but the Committee may make any other arrangement that may appear desirable.

7. The claim of any Officer to residence in either set of Buildings shall be decided by a vote of the General Committee.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 16TH MAY, 1902.

827

8. Each term of residence is for fourteen days, from Tuesday evening to the Tuesday morning next but one. If there are no applications for the houses occupied, residence may be continued, subject to Rule 11.

9. In April of each year the Secretary of each Sub-Committee shall ascertain what Officers propose to make use of the Bungalows during the summer, and a list shall be made out by each Sub- Committee accordingly. Any Officer who shall not be in the Colony during two months or more of the summer shall lose his right to residence for that summer. Applications for residence received after the 30th April will be submitted to the General Committee, whose decision shall be final.

     10. The choice of date of residence shall be arranged by ballot by two or more members of the Sub-Committee. Each Officer will be entitled to the choice of a turn of residence, or to the refusal of any vacancy which may occur, in the order in which his name stands on the ballot list for the time being. If after the first ballot, there are any turns available, a second ballot shall be taken of the names of married Officers only. After every married Officer has had an opportunity of taking a second turn, a ballot will be held of the names of unmarried Officers. Officers declining to take up any second turn that may be offered to them will be excluded from any subsequent ballot until every Officer shall have had the offer of a second turn. On the occurrence of any further ballot, the names of married and unmarried Officers will be ballotted without distinction and without regard to the number of turns any Officer may have already acquired.

11. Turns may be exchanged, but all exchanges must be notified to the Secretary of the Sub- Committee.

12. No Officer is allowed to keep the quarters allotted to him standing unoccupied, except in very bad weather, or under other exceptional circumstances; nor to give away his turn; nor, by a merely nominal residence, to place the house at the disposal of others. Any infraction of this Rule will be regarded as a disqualification for future allotment.

13. Officers occupying the Pavilions shall subscribe a sum not exceeding $10 and those occupying the Villas shall subscribe a sum not exceeding $8 a fortnight to a furniture fund, the actual amounts to be subscribed being decided at the Annual General Meeting.

14. When the General Committee is informed by the certificate of the Principal Civil Medical Officer that the ill-health of any Officer, or serious illness in his family makes it imperative that he or his family should at once reside at the Peak, they may grant him or his family immediate occupation of whichever Bungalow may be thought most desirable, the inmates vacating it if necessary. The Committee shall then make such arrangements for the rest of the year as may appear most equitable.

15. The coolies in charge of the premises are not entitled to gratuities, which Officers are requested not to give.

     16. Furniture is not to be transferred from one house to another, nor is any article (especially bedding) to be placed in the servants' quarters or back premises. Each occupant is responsible for breakages during his term of residence, which must be paid for in money, not by replacing the articles.

17. Oil, coal, blankets, bed-linen and table-linen are not supplied. With these exceptions the Committee will endeavour to keep the houses furnished with everything essential. Suggestions, and more especially reports of any defect in the buildings, should be sent to the Secretary of the proper Sub-Committee.

18. Accounts of receipts and expenditure will be circulated at the end of each year.

19. The interpretation of the above regulations shall lie with the General Committee.

    Approved by His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government in Council, this 3rd day of May, 1902.

SCHEDULE A.

A. M. THOMSON, Acting Colonial Secretary.

!

In the following rules:---

RULES.

The expression "energy means electrical energy.

The expression "generator" means the dynamo or dynamos or other electrical apparatuș used for the generation of energy. The expression "motor" means any electric motor carried on a

car and used for the conversion of energy.

The expression "pipe" means any gas or water pipe or other

metallic pipe, structure, or substance.

The expression "wire" means any wire or apparatus used for telegraphic, telephonic, electrical signalling, or other similar purposes.

The expression

44 current means an electric current exceeding one thousandth part of one ampere.

1. Any dynamo used as a generator shall be of such pattern and construction as to be capable of producing a continuous current without appreciable pulsation.

2. One of the two conductors used for transmitting energy from the generator to the motors shall be in every case insulated from earth, and is hereinafter referred to as the "line"; the other may be insulated throughout, or may be uninsulated in such parts and to such extent as is provided in the following rules, and is hereinafter referred to as the "return."

868

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 23RD MAY, 1902.

3. Where any rails on which cars run or any conductors laid be- tween or within three feet of such rails form any part of a return such part may be uninsulated. All other returns or parts of a return shall be insulated, unless of such sectional area as will reduce the difference of potential between the ends of the uninsulated portion of the return below the limit laid down in rule 7.

4. When any uninsulated conductor laid between or within three. feet of the rails forms any part of a return, it shall be electrically connected to the rails at distances apart not exceeding 100 feet by means of copper strips having a sectional area of at least one-sixteenth of a square inch, or by other means of equal conductivity.

5. When any part of a return is uninsulated it shall be connected with the negative terminal of the generator, and in such case the ne- gative terminal of the generator shall also be directly connected, through the current indicator hereinafter mentioned, to two separate earth connections which shall be placed not less than 20 yards apart. Provided that in place of such two earth connections the Company may make one connection to a main for water supply of not less than three inches internal diameter, with the consent of the owner thereof and of the person supplying the water, and provided that where, from the nature of the soil or for other reasons, the Company can show to the satisfaction of an inspecting officer of the Goven- ment that the earth connections herein specified cannot be constructed and maintained without undue expense, the provisions of this rule shall not apply. The earth connections referred to in this rule shall be constructed laid and maintained so as to secure electrical contact with the general mass of earth, and so that an electro-motive force, not exceeding four volts, shall suffice to produce a current of at least two amperes from one earth connection to the other through the earth, and a test shall be made at least once in every month to as- certain whether this requirement is complied with. No portion of either earth connection shall be placed within six feet of any pipe except a main for water supply of not less than three inches internal diameter which is metallically connected to the earth connections with the consents hereinbefore specified.

6. When the return is partly or entirely uninsulated the Company shall in the construction and maintenance of the tramway (a) so se- parate the uninsulated return from the general mass of earth, and from any pipe in the vicinity; (b) so connect together the several lengths of the rails; (c) adopt such means for reducing the difference produced by the current between the potential of the uninsulated return at any other point; and (d) so maintain the efficiency of the earth connections specified in the preceding rules as to fulfil the fol- lowing conditions, viz.:-

(i) That the current passing from the earth connections through the indicator to the generator shall not at any time ex- ceed either two amperes per mile of single tramway line or five per cent. of the total current output of the station. (ii) That if at any time and at any place a test be made by connecting a galvanometer or other current-indicator to the uninsulated return to any pipe in the vicinity, it shall always be possible to reverse the direction of any current indicated by interposing a battery of three Leclanche cells connected in series if the direction of the current is from the return to the pipe, or by interposing one Leclanche cell if the direction of the current is from the pipe to the return.

In order to provide a continuous indication that the condition (i) is complied with, the Company shall place in a conspicuous position a suitable properly connected and correctly marked current-indicator, and shall keep it connected during the whole time that the line is charged.

The owner of any such pipe may require the Company to permit him at reasonable times and intervals to ascertain by test that the conditions specified in (ii) are complied with as regards his pipe.

7. When the return is partly or entirely uninsulated a continuous record shall be kept by the Company of the difference of potential during the working of the tramway between the points of the uninsu lated return furthest from and nearest to the generating station. If at any time such difference of potential exceeds the limit of seven volts, the Company shall take immediate steps to reduce it below that limit. 8. Every electrical connection with any pipe shall be so arranged as to admit of easy examination, and shall be tested by the Company. at least once in every three months.

9. Every line and every insulated return or part of a return except any feeder shall be constructed in sections not exceeding one half of a mile in length, and means shall be provided for insulating each such section for purposes of testing.

10. The insulation of the line and of the return when insulated, and of all feeders and other conductors, shall be so maintained that the leakage current shall not exceed one hundredth of an ampere per mile of tramway. The leakage current shall be ascertained daily before or after the hours of running when the line is fully charged. If at any time it should be found that the leakage current exceeds one half of an ampere per mile of tramway the leak shall be localised and removed as soon as practicable and the running of the cars shall be stopped unless the leak is localised and removed within 24 hours. Provided that where both line and return are placed within a conduit this regulation shall not apply.

11. The insulation resistance of all continuously insulated cables used for lines, for insulated returns, for feeders, or for other purposes, and laid below the surface of the ground, shall not be permitted to fall below the equivalent of 10 megohms for a length of one mile. - A test of the insulation resistance of all such cables shall be made at least once in each month.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 23RD MAY, 1902,

12. Where in any case in any part of the tramway the line is erected overhead and the return is laid on or under the ground, and where any wires have been erected or laid before the construction of the tramway in the same or nearly the same direction as such part of the tramway the Company shall, if required so to do by the owners of such wires or any of them, permit such owners to insert and maintain in the Company's line one or more induction-coils or other apparatus approved by the Company for the purpose of preventing disturbance by electric induction. In any case in which the Company withhold their approval of any such apparatus the owners may appeal to the Governor in Council, who may, if he thinks fit, dispense, with such approval.

13. Any insulated return shall be placed parallel to and at a distance not exceeding three feet from the line when the line and return are both erected overhead, or eighteen inches when they are both laid underground.

14. In the disposition, connections, and working of feeders the Company shall take all reasonable precautions to avoid injurious interference with any existing wires.

15. The Company shall so construct and maintain their system as to secure good contact between the motors and the line and return ⚫ respectively.

16. The Company shall adopt the best means available to prevent the occurrence of undue sparking at the rubbing or rolling contacts in any place and in the construction and use of their generator and motors.

17. In working the cars the current shall be varied as required by means of a rheostat containing at least 20 sections, or by some other equally efficient method of gradually varying resistance.

18. The Company shall, so far as may be applicable to their system of working, keep records as specified below. These records shall, if and when required, be forwarded for the information of the Governor in Council.

REGISTRAR GENERAL'S OFFICE,

HONGKONG, 27th March, 1902.

/

     SIR, I have the honour to make the following Report on the work of this Department for the year 1901.

REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE.

The revenue collected during the year amounted to $127,566.16, as against $132,729.63 collected in 1900. The decrease is due to the large falling off in the number of certificates of identity issued to Chinese entering the United States. The revenue derived from this source is $9,350 less than last On the other hand, the revenue from cargo-boat licences shews an increase of $1,481 and that from year. markets an increase of $1,361.

     The expenditure during the year was $16,429.62, compared with $13,058.53 in 1900. The increase is caused by the separation of the posts of Registrar General and Colonial Secretary.

     It is now ten years since the Registrar-General's first annual report on the work of his department, and the short comparison which is given below between the years 1891 and 1901 will not be out of place.

The revenue derived from the lease of market premises shews an increase of $31,300. More than half of this comes from the Central Market but the rents of all the markets have advanced naturally and inevitably with the increase of population. As a rule, market premises are let by sealed tender, and any other method would, I think, prove unsatisfactory. It is certain that whenever the rent paid to the Government falls much below the rack-rent, the lessee sublets the premises and pockets the difference. Instances of this being done are always coming to light, but it is impossible to put a stop to the practice. The number of shops and stalls occupied has risen from 634 to 824. The Taipingshan Market was closed in 1894 and one at Taikoktsui was opened in 1899. The erection of temporary markets on the Praya Reclamation has been approved and will relieve the pressure on the Saiyingpun and Western Markets, and the extension of the Wanchai Market will most probably prove remunerative.

Exceptional circumstances account for the small revenue derived from hawkers' licences in 1891, but the figures since the year 1894, in which the present system of paying the fees quarterly was reverted to, shew a steady and remarkable increase.

PÓ LEUNG KUK INCORPORATION ORDINANCE.

(No. 18 of 1893.)

WOMEN AND GIRLS PROTECTION ORDINANCE..

(No. 9 of 1897 as amended by No. 14 of 1900.)

The

  The report of the Pó Leung Kuk Society for the year 1901 has been forwarded to you. present financial position of the Society reflects credit on all concerned. The subscriptions for the year amounted to $6,823.50, and the total revenue to $7,873.50. The expenditure was $7,656.31. There were 50 persons in the Pó Leung Kuk on the 1st January and 389 were admitted during the year. Of these, 187 were restored direct to parents or relatives or were sent to some Benevolent Society in China, 3 were adopted, 5 placed at school, and 50 were married. Investigation into the cases of 116 shewed that no action was desirable or necessary. The work entailed by investigation into so many cases is very onerous, and it is not infrequently tedious and disagreeable, but there has never been any difficulty in finding gentlemen willing to undertake the task.

  Thirty-eight girls, of whom 14 were eventually found again, were reported to the Society as missing in Hongkong.

  Three hundred and thirty-five women and girls were detained under Part II of Ordinance 9 of 1897, as compared with 298 in 1900. Table II (4.) shews what action was taken in each case, and Table II (B.) gives particulars as to girls who have been handed back to their guardians under security and on condition that they reported themselves at stated times to the Registrar General.

EMIGRATION.

  Nine thousand seven hundred and sixty-two female passengers and boys were examined at the Harbour Office in 1901, as compared with 9,943 in the previous year. Of this number, 82 women were detained for enquiries, 73 of whom were found to have been persuaded to go abroad under false pretences. The usual arrangements were made to restore them to their relatives and friends. Emigration to the Straits Settlements was suspended for nearly four months during the prevalence of plague in this Colony..

"

CONTRACT CHINESE LABOUR IN BRITISH NORTH BORNEO.

  The negotiations with the British North Borneo Government relative to the advance of wages made to coolies proceeding to British North Borneo have resulted in the following arrangement. In future, the cost of bringing the coolie to Hongkong, housing him there, and providing him with a small outfit, will be reckoned as $10. $5 will be handed to him on board the steamer before leaving and $10 will be paid to him on his signing the contract on his arrival in British North Borneo. This secures the coolie $15 in cash out of a nominal advance of $25 and will, I hope, put an end to all difficulties.

CERTIFICATES OF IDENTITY TO CHINESE ENTERING THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, &c.

  The revenue under this head was $1,750, as compared with $11,100 in 1900. This large decrease is due to a much more rigid interpretation of the rules governing the immigration of Chinese, by the American Authorities. The wives and children of Chinese now resident in the States and of Chinese proceeding there with certificates, are no longer required to take out certificates themselves.

The number of certificates issued during the year was:-

Table IV A. gives the number of Births and Deaths registered during the

year.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 23RD MAY, 1902.

873

The death-rates at various ages and the causes of death will be found in Table IV B and IV C. The Births among the British and Foreign Community numbered 240, as compared with 261 in 1900; of this number, 124 were males and 116 females.

   The Births registered as having occurred in the Chinese Community were 848, as against 678 in 1900.

   The subjoined Table shews the number of Births of Chinese registered during the years 1891- 1901 inclusive:-

The decrease is very striking, and on the suggestion of the Sanitary Board directions have been given by the Government for special efforts to be made to secure the registration of all births. During the last eleven years three Censuses of the Colony have been taken and the following information was obtained regarding the number of females and the number of families in the Chinese Community:-

There is apparently an increased reluctance to register births and very probably an increased reluctance among Chinese women to being confined in Hongkong.

On the 15th July, the Kowloon City Police Station was declared a District Register Office and up to the end of the year 29 births and 52 deaths were registered.

There were 9 prosecutions under the Ordinance in 1901 under the following headings:-

Failing to report death,

Unlawful removal of dead bodies,

.1 case. ..6 cases.

The number of Deaths in the British and Foreign Community was 412, as compared with 302 in 1900. Of these, 99 died from Plague. The number of deaths among the Chinese was 6,670, as com- pared with 6,471 in 1900. 1,513 died from Plague. 367 of the deaths among the British and Foreign Community and 3,043 among the Chinese were certified to by a registered Medical Practitioner or were the subject of a Coroner's Enquiry.

INTERPRETATION DEPARTMENT.

The institution of an Interpretation Department which was recommended by a Committee appointed by His Excellency Sir HENRY BLAKE in October, 1899, has been approved, and regulations fixing the salaries of the various classes of interpreters and translators and other details, have been drawn up and were published in Government Notification No. 581 of 1901. Under these regulations six student-interpreters were appointed on the 1st of December and are making satisfactory progress with their studies.

DISTRICT Watchmen.

:

875

A full statement of the Revenue and Expenditure for the year is given in Table VI A, and the state of the Force on the 31st December, and other particulars will be found in Table VI B. The District Watchmen were instrumental in bringing 175 cases before the Police Magistrate, and the Committee is again indebted to the Chinese newspapers-the Tsun Wan Yat Po and the Wai San Yat Pò-for continuing to publish weekly lists of these cases for the information of subscribers.

The contributions to the Fund for the year were $12,647.96, as compared with $10,598.29 in 1900. The expenditure was $12,697.44, as compared with $12,804.12 in the preceding year. The balance to the credit of the Fund on the 31st December was $6,970.71.

Although the pay of the District Watchmen was increased in 1897, it is found that the present rate of pay is insufficient to attract or retain the services of good men. In a Force of 70 men there were 8 dismissals and 11 resignations in the year.

   A contract has been entered into for the building of the Central Watch-house on the Taipingshan Resumption Area at a cost of $12,000; the building is to be completed by the 31st July next.

   Three vacancies in the District Watchmen Committee have been caused by the resignation of Mr. WEI A YUK, and the deaths of Mr. IP CHUK-KAI and Mr. TSOI TSZ-MEI, all three members of the Committee since its foundation in 1891. The vacancies have been filled by the appointment of Mr. CHAU TUNG-SHANG, Mr. U Hoi-CHAU and Mr. LAU CHỦ-PÁK.

CHINESE RECREATION GROUND.

   A statement of Revenue and Expenditure is given in Table VII. The total expenditure for the year is $1,416.17. This includes a sum of $756.55 which had to be spent on repairing the buildings and seats damaged by the typhoon of November, 1900. A revenue of $1,090.52 was obtained from the rent of shops, letter-writers' tables, &c. There is a balance of $2,993.64 to the credit of the Fund.

CHARITABLE FUNDS.

Tables VIII and IX give statements of account of the two Funds administered by this Office. The calls upon the charity of the Registrar General are very numerous and these funds are employed by him to meet them as far as possible.

TUNG WA HOSPITAL.

During the year a subscription of $40,000 was raised towards the cost of erecting a Branch Hospital for the treatment of contagious diseases at Kennedytown. The foundation stone was laid by His Excellency the Governor on the 18th November.

   The financial position of the hospital is now receiving the serious attention of the Chinese. For some years the expenditure has exceeded the ordinary revenue and it is generally recognised that the time has come to re-establish the hospital on a sound financial basis,

Subjoined is a Table shewing the number of patients admitted for treatment and the number of out-patients for each of the last eleven years. Whilst the number of in-patients has increased by 24 per cent., the number of out-patients has decreased by as much as 47 per cent. Attention was drawn to the decrease in the number of out-patients in the Departmental Annual Report for 1898 and the causes to which the Directors of the hospital attributed it, were mentioned:

No. 20 of 1901.-Gunpowder and Fireworks Ordinance.

No. 30 of 1901.-Buildings Amendment Ordinance.

No. 37 of 1901.-Chinese Emigration Amendment Ordinance.

   By Ordinance No. 20 of 1901 the manufacture of gunpowder and fireworks can only be carried on under licence.

:

876

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 23RD MAY, 1902.

Ordinance No. 30 of 1901 restricts the height of buildings and limits the erection of verandahs. Under Ordinance No. 37 of 1901 boarding-houses for Chinese emigrants must be licensed and intending emigrants must lodge in them previous to embarkation.

Two Orders in Council dated the 9th October, 1901, place Chinese music and public processions under the same restrictions in the southern part of the Kowloon Peninsula as in Victoria. Rules dated the 9th and 19th November, respectively, prescribe for the licensing of Fishing Stakes and Stations in the New Territory and for the issue of Liquor Licences in those parts of the New Territory outside New Kowloon,

MISCELLANEOUS.

There have been several labour disputes during the year though none has forced itself on public attention. In each case that came to my notice the employés obtained a rise of wages. No attempt has been made to collect accurate statistics, as the object of the enquiries might have been misunderstood.

STAFF.

On the 15th March, I was appointed Registrar General. On the 1st August, Mr. CLEMENTI was appointed Assistant Registrar General, but Mr. BALL continued to act in the post until the end of year. Mr. SUNG SING was appointed First Clerk on the 11th November. Six student interpreters were appointed on the 1st December.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 23RD MAY, 1902.

GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.-No. 316.

The following Report of the Pó Leung Kuk, for the year 1901, is published.

:

By Command,

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 23rd May, 1902.

Report of the Pó Léung Kuk Sotiety, for the Year 1901.

The following ten gentlemen were elected to act as the Managing Committee for the year:-

KÚ FAI-SHAN. CH'AN KING-WAN. KÁN T'IN-HING. CHAN PÓ-TỤNG. CH'AN WING-Ü. LAU HING-SÜN. LAI SUN-HING. UE PIK-UE. CH'AN KIT-FU. WONG SHIU-TÓNG.

   Mr. LAU WAI-CH'UN and Mr. Wei Long-shán were appointed to act as Treasurers. A statement of the Assets and Liabilities of the Society and a declaration by the Treasurers, and two statements shewing the working account and revenue and expenditure during the year are attached. The balance to the credit of the Society on the 31st December was $15,217.19. The actual sum spent by the Working Committee on the work of the Society was $6,640.36 as compared with $6,257.90 in 1900. Despite this increase the Society has been able during the year to pay off an overdraft of $1,302.01. This satisfactory result is due to the liberal subscriptions received from various sections of the Chinese Community. The Man Mó Temple subscribed $1,350, the lessee of the two Chinese theatres $1,000, and various guilds subscribed $4,473.50.

Messrs. SHUM KUN-SAI and WONG HOI-PANG have kindly audited the accounts.

   The Visiting Justices during the year have been Captain ANDERSON, the Honourable WEI A YUK. and Mr. CH'AN FUK.

   The number of women and children admitted into the Home during the year was 389 being 52 more than in 1900. A return attached to this report shews what steps were taken with regard to them.

   The Society is indebted, as in former years, to the various Benevolent Societies of Canton, Macao and other places, for their co-operation in restoring women and children to their relatives, and for their assistance in other directions.

   The inmates of the Home receive regular elementary instruction daily, and are encouraged to occupy their time with needlework. Many of them are able to earn a little pocket-money by making up clothing for Chinese shops.

   The report of Dr. THOMSON on the sanitary condition of the buildings and on the health of the inmates is attached.

The accommodation provided in the Home is at times insufficient.

A. W. BREWIN, President.

HO KAI, .

Vice-President.

   We, LAU WAI-CH'UN and WEI LONG-SHAN, members of Board of Direction of the Pó Leung Kuk Incorporated Society, do solemnly and sincerely declare that the attached statement of the Assets and Liabilities of the above Society on the 31st December, 1901, marked "A" and signed with our names on the 5th February, 1902, is a true statement, and we make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing the same to be true and by virtue of the provisions of "The Statutory Declaration Act, 1835."

LAU WAI-CH'ÜN.

WEI LONG-SHÁN.

   Declared by the declarants LAU WAI-CH'UN and WEI LONG-SHAN, at Victoria, Hongkong, this fifth day of February, 1902.

PÓ LEUNG KUK, HONGKONG, 22nd February, 1902.

SIR, I have the honour to report, for the information of the Honourable the Registrar General, regarding the Pó Léung Kuk for the year 1901.

I have satisfied myself throughout the year that the sanitary condition of the buildings and drains is satisfactory, that the dormitories are maintained in a clean and orderly condition, and that the food supplied is wholesome and sufficient.

The general health of the inmates has been good; but 17 cases of Beri-Beri occurred during the year. Most of these having occurred between July and September, I had the whole place very efficiently disinfected and colour-washed by the Sanitary Board's employés.

PÓ LEUNG KUK, HONGKONG, 22nd February, 1902.

SIR, I have the honour to report, for the information of the Honourable the Registrar General, regarding the Pó Léung Kuk for the year 1901.

I have satisfied myself throughout the year that the sanitary condition of the buildings and drains is satisfactory, that the dormitories are maintained in a clean and orderly condition, and that the food supplied is wholesome and sufficient.

The general health of the inmates has been good; but 17 cases of Beri-Beri occurred during the year. Most of these having occurred between July and September, I had the whole place very efficiently disinfected and colour-washed by the Sanitary Board's employés.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

Dr. J. M. ATKINSON,

Principal Civil Medical Officer,

3.-MAP OF ROADS AND STREETS.

In anticipation of Government being asked to expose for sale Crown Land in Hongkong and in British Kowloon or to grant leases of Land in the New Territory, and with a view to safeguarding against a repetition of the state of affairs in respect of roads, lanes and buildings as that which now exists in Hongkong and Kowloon, will the Honourable the Director of Public Works inform the Council (1) whether a clearly and well defined Map showing Roads and Streets of adequate width has been or will be prepared; (2) whether such Map will in due course be submitted to this Council; (3) when approved whether the same will be recorded officially and shall not be departed from without the sanction of the Council; and (4) whether a copy of such Map will be deposited in the Office of the Sanitary Board for the information and guidance of the Board's Officers?

6.-INCREASED WATER STORAGE.

Will the Honourable the Director of Public Works inform the Council whether the Gov- ernment has taken the necessary measures to temporarily provide, if it be possible to do so in the time now available, for an adequate or additional water storage capacity should there be a short rainfall this season, so as to safeguard the ratepayers and the people from again next year suffering the inconveniences and evils arising out of a water famine, and state how much additional water storage has been provided, if any, since the 1st of January this year, and how much additional storage it is estimated will be provided between now and 31st January, 1903?

Objects and Reasons.

To amend and consolidate the existing law as to the supply of water in the Colony with a view to prevent a recurrence of the late water famine by regulating such supply and reducing waste to a minimum.

It is proposed to effect these objects by enacting that in the case of every teuement supplied with water from the water-works such supply shall be regulated by meter and that excess consumption (as defined under section 2 of this Ordinance) shall be paid for by the owner or occupier.

In the case of tenements not supplied from the water- works public fountains will be erected at suitable places to meet such demand.

As the waste principally occurs in Chinese tenement houses and the cost of excess consumption in nine cases out of ten will have to be paid by the owner, it is conceived that such owners will elect to disconnect their services and allow their tenants to have recourse to the public fountains, a system which used to be universal in the case of such tenements. At the same time any person who prefers to be connected can be so.

Provision is made for conferring on the Water Authority the necessary powers to enable him to carry out the above- mentioned proposals.

SIR,

REPORT

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

ON THE

WATER-SUPPLY OF HONGKONG.

MAINLY WITH REGARD TO THE FULL DEVELOPMENT OF THE SUPPLY.

FROM THE TAITAM-TUK VALLEY.

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE,

HONGKONG, 18th April, 1902.

 1. The reasons which led to the conclusion that the Taitam-tuk Valley is Reasons for the most suitable one for development, are as follows :-

developing Taitam gathering

 Other gathering-grounds exist, but their areas, above the level which would ground. admit of the delivery of the water, by gravity, into the general system is but small. As far as can be seen from existing maps, no good reservoir-sites exist within them. To get any large quantity of water, the reservoirs must be put low down, and pumping must therefore be resorted to. A long length of conduit or pipe would be required, to bring in the water from them. The conduit from Taitam exists, and is capable of conveying a far larger quantity of water, than it is now called upon to deliver. Therefore, though it will be well to examine other gathering-grounds, and even to reserve them for future use, if any favourable conditions be found to exist, the Taitam Valley should be the scene of immediate operations.*

for resorting

at first.

 2. The original project, drawn up by Mr. COOPER was, firstly, to construct two The reasons reservoirs, having a joint capacity of 110 millions of gallons, fed by, and placed to pumping within, the Taitam gathering-ground, and above the existing reservoir. Then, later on, to construct, lower down the valley, a further reservoir, having a capacity of 100 millions at a level of 180 above O.D., so that the contents thereof would have to be pumped up to the Tunnel. Since this project was submitted, events have occurred, which point to a reversal of the policy. Taitam Reservoir never filled, during the rainy season of 1901, and it is doubtful whether 100 millions escaped collection in 1900, in which year the rainfall was also below the average. Therefore the gathering-ground should be increased, as well as the reservoir- capacity, and this can only be done by going further down the valley, and resorting to pumping, consequently let pumping be resorted to at once.

Another great advantage of this arrangement is that the supply could be materially increased, at* an early date. During the exceptional drought of 1901-02, the stream, below Taitam, yielded at least 45 millions of gallons, in September and October, which would have been a valuable addition to the general water-supply.

As to the

position of

station.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH JUNE, 1902.

3. The pumping-station should be placed on the shore, well below the site of the pumping any reservoir that may, at any future date, be constructed. It should be on the beach, near to a spot in the neighbourhood, at which there is about one fathom of water, at low tide, to facilitate landing coals. It will be more economical to take the water down to the coal-supply, than to carry coal up to the pumping-station. Bringing the water down to the pumping-station will not involve any appreciable increase of power, the water would be conveyed, down to the engines, in a pipe of appropriate diameter from which the pumps would draw direct. The water will then rise by gravity to the height of the water-level in the reservoir, or reservoirs, and all that the engines will have to do is to lift the water from the level of the new reservoir to the level of the Taitam Tunnel.

It will be time enough to erect a second or third, when the reservoirs are finished ; and when the actual quantity to be pumped is known by actual observation.

5. It is premature to discuss the details of the pumping-plant. I will now merely say that the engines should be of the most economical type, triple expansion, fully jacketted. The size of the engine, upwards of 100 horse-power, is such as to justify considerable expenditure on arrangements tending to fuel-economy. As regards fuel-consumption, I would observe that the actual fuel-consumption of the small engines, now in use, must not be taken as the basis of the calculation of the probable fuel-consumption. The large engine will probably consume, per horse- power per hour, at most one-half, and very probably one-third, the coal that the small engines require..

6. The low-level reservoir or reservoirs, should have a capacity, singly or of the reser- jointly, of at least about 400 millions of gallons. In the absence of surveys, it is impossible to state where the reservoir should be constructed, or whether there should be several. One reservoir, that to be constructed in the first instance, should be formed, by throwing a dam across the Taitam-tuk stream, as near as possible to sea level, so as to collect, directly, or by catch-water channels, all the waters of the streams, flowing into the head of the Taitam-tuk Estuary. If it be impracticable to make a single reservoir of sufficient capacity, at this site, then others might be built higher up. Perhaps that proposed by Mr. COOPER, at site No. 4, might be one of these. It may be even advantageous to construct those proposed, at sites 1 and 2. They, with Taitam, could be filling, the town being supplied, solely by pumping from the low-level reservoir. For the present, suffice it to say that one reservoir, of the greatest capacity practicable, should be constructed, with its dam as near to sea-level as possible. This should be the first to be constructed.

As to the diameter of the rising

sumption.

7. The approximate length of rising-pipe, from the pumping-station to the basin, at the mouth of the Taitam Tunnel is, allowing for the irregularity of the ground, about 9,000 feet, and the lift, including friction, is approximately 400 feet, measured from the bottom of the lowest reservoir. To convey 2,500,000 gallons a day, one pipe of 21" diameter, or two of 15" diameter, would be required. Inasmuch as one engine only is to be provided in the first instance, it will be economical to lay one 15" pipe first; which will amply provide for the water pumped by one engine. The second pipe may be laid later on, when more is known as to the actual yield of the new works. The pump-horse-power of each engine will, therefore, be 105, corresponding to about 124 indicated horse-power.

8. An engine, of the proposed type, should not consume more than 2 lbs. of Welsh or 3 lbs of Japanese coal, per I. H. P. per hour, in actual continuous work. So that the daily consumption, going full speed, will be 12424-4 tons of coal per day, costing, say, $10 on wharf, or $40 per day, or at the rate of $0.032 per

1,000 gallons pumped, for coal only. The staff, including an European with an allowance for oil and waste, will cost about $25 per day, bringing the total nett cost of pumping to $0.05 per 1,000 gallons. When pumping from a full reservoir, or from one higher up the valley, the lift and consequently the coal consumption, would be reduced, but not in direct proportion, for there is a certain power at which the engine gives its best efficiency.

9. The quantity of water that can be obtained from the Taitam-tuk valley As to the will depend a good deal upon the capacity of the reservoirs, whether they be large quantity of enough to carry forward a reserve, from one season to the next, as explained in the previous report. A rough approximation to the probable minimum, during a very dry year may be calculated. Taitam, with a gathering-ground of 1,093 acres, in- cluding catches and a storage-capacity of 406 millions, maintained, during the water year of 1901-1902, allowing for the broken portion of the current month, a total supply of about two millions per day, on the average of the whole rain-year. The new works will add about 862 acres of gathering-ground which contribute, direct, to the proposed low-level reservoir, and the water from a gathering-ground to the East of the Taitam-tuk Village, having an area of 245 acres, can be brought in, by constructing a small subsidiary reservoir, and a short length of conduit; thus giving a total additional area of 1,107 acres, and therefore practically equal, in point of area, to the present gathering-ground of the Taitam Reservoir. Therefore, one may safely assert that with a reservoir or reservoirs, equal in capacity, to the existing Taitam Reservoir, the proposed works will at least add as much water as Taitam now affords, or in other words double the supply which is now, during a drought, about two millions of gallons per diem. This is on the assumption that the additional storage only bears the same proportion to the added gathering-ground that the existing storage bears to the existing area of gathering-ground. In all probability, by providing more storage, the supply could be materially increased. There is good reason to believe that the estimate of yield which I have given, will be materially exceeded in practice, for the following reasons. The proposed low-level reservoir will receive a larger proportion of its water, direct from its gathering-ground, than Taitam does, and will, moreover, collect any water that escapes from Taitam, or from the catches which feed it. It will also receive any water percolating down through the soil, which now gets away, unperceived, to the

sea.

Lastly, by means of catch-water channels, water may be collected from the slopes of the hills, surrounding Taitam bay, from Cape D'Aguilar on the East to near Stanley Village on the West.

capacity of

plant.

10. The size of proposed engine was mainly determined, in the first instance, As to the with regard to the fact that the flow of Taitam in a very dry year, 1901-02, was for proposed a month on end at least, at the rate of one million gallons in 24 hours. The pro- posed engine could raise this quantity without any appreciable storage, only a small collecting-pond, as proposed by Mr. COOPER. I feel certain that with adequate storage, a permanent additional supply of 2,000,000 gallons per day, could be main- tained, at the very least, in a dry water year. The proposed engine, therefore, will not be too large. If future experience shews that less, say for example only one million gallons a day can be obtained, then all that has to be done is to erect a second engine, of the same size, as a reserve. If, on the other hand, it is found that an additional supply of two millions or more can be maintained, then a second and third can be added, two to do the work, and with one in reserve. Or, on the other hand, if still more be obtainable, then even a fourth engine may be provided. I find that, during water-year 1901-02, an average daily supply was given from Taitam, from April to October inclusive, at the rate of 2,400,000 gallons a day, under constant supply, for the remainder of the year, the average rate of supply was 1,500,000 gallons a day, so that about one million of gallons extra per day would have maintained the constant supply, for the whole year.

Programme

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH JUNE, 1902.

11. I regret that I am unable to form a more precise estimate of the probable yields of the increased gathering-ground. I have been carefully through the data which have been collected, during the past 12 years, and I shall give, in an Appendix, an abstract of the results which I have obtained, with regard to the percentage of the rainfall which is available under various conditions of rainfall. The value of the data, which has been collected, is however greatly diminished by the fact that it is not practicable to estimate, with even approximate accuracy, the quantity of water which escapes through the waste-weir, during heavy rain. The only plan is to con- fine one's self to the investigation of periods, during which there was no overflow, thus materially reducing the number of available observations. Again, the methods of measurement, now available, are not sufficiently accurate to give precise results. I shall offer later on some suggestions as to improvement in this matter.

12. I shall not attempt to give any estimate of the probable cost of the works which I have recommended. The data before me, in the form of plans, are not sufficient to permit of the preparation of even a rough estimate. The submission of estimates, based on insufficient data, is a most objectionable practice and one apt to mislead. I therefore recommend that the sum of $20,000 be sanctioned for preliminary work, such as surveys, gaugings of streams and the like.

13. The first thing to be done, is to commence a survey of the Taitam of operations. Valley, extending from sea-level to about 300 feet above it. This survey should be made with the utmost accuracy, so that it may be available as a portion of the new survey of the Island, a work, so much needed, as I have frequently pointed out. Whilst surveying, it would also be well to include the whole gathering ground of Taitam, including areas utilised, by means of catch-water drains. I would here observe that sections 21 and 22, of Ordinance 16 of 1890, Demarcation and Reservation of gathering-grounds, do not appear to have been complied with. The Taitam gathering-ground should therefore be carefully survey- ed and delineated with permanent Boundary Stones. Whenever convenient, for example those at the summits of hills, should serve as trigonometrical points, and their positions should be referred by means of rectangular co-ordinates, to some one fixed point, such as the Kowloon Observatory. I cannot too strongly insist upon the necessity for recording, permanently, leading survey-points; so that they may be available for future work. It is greatly to be regretted that this was not done, in the case of the Collinson Survey of 1845. I, and many others, have invariably failed to find on the ground, the trigonometrical points, on which this survey was based. Therefore, all the valuable information, which is contained in the field-books and computation sheets, which exist or did exist, in the R. E. Office, are practically valueless. Had the trigonometrical points been permanently marked, by means of substantial pillars or otherwise, much of the work of 1845 would still be available, for purposes, such as the

such as the present.

As an example of the importance of permanently marking survey-points, not only on the ground, but by records also in the office, I may site the Survey of Malta, with which I was formerly connected. The trigonometrical points were well marked on the ground, and the co-ordinates of each recorded in the office. Government surveys, for any purpose, whatsoever, were all connected to two or more points. The result was that, in the course of not very many years, a nearly complete cadastral plan has been produced, at trifling expense. Whereas here, surveys have been made of the City, of the Peak district, of Taitam and other places, but there is nothing to link them together.

Levelling-operations need not in the first instance be carried higher than is required, for the immediate necessities of the case.

Two gauge-

    -weirs should be erected, on the main Taitam-tuk stream, at sites which have been selected. One of these, which should be at least 40 feet in width, is intended to measure moderate floods, up to 4 inches per day. The other, a V

gauge, is intended to measure smaller flows, with greater precision than the large flood-gauge is capable of doing. Each of these gauge-weirs should be provided with a self-recording instrument, with clock-work, giving a continuous record of the depth of water passing over each gauge. The object now is to obtain an estimate of the total water, flowing off from the whole area; including moderate floods. Now, during floods, the rate of flow varies from hour to hour, so much so that daily measurements are most misleading. A continuous record is, therefore, essential to accuracy.

 Steps should at once be taken to obtain proposals and quotations for the first pumping-engine. The best procedure in such cases is to draw up a Preliminary Specification, setting forth merely the work which the engine is to do, and the general conditions under which it is to be performed.

Then call upon a

number of Firms, who make a speciality of such work, to make proposals. Having obtained proposals, let the best design be selected on its general merits, and not merely with regard to cost. Having selected the design, then let details be arranged, and a final plan and specification be drawn up.

 I have already furnished the Director of Public Works with the necessary specifi- cation. If this be transmitted to the Crown Agents for the Colonies, the proposals will be ready for my consideration, on my return, and I shall then be able to report, finally, as to cost.

 At or about the same time, the surveys will have made sufficient progress, to, enable the Director of Public Works to submit a preliminary Design and Estimate of cost.

 At the same time, let pipes be ordered. As the pressure, in parts at least, is somewhat great (400 feet), and as the ground over which they have to be laid is rugged, I am under the impression that steel or wrought-iron piping will be suitable, on account of its lightness, and of the ease with which it can be jointed. The best plan, however, will be to obtain preliminary tenders both for steel and cast- iron piping.

To realize some benefit, at the earliest date, let a small temporary dam be constructed, at some convenient spot, and from it to the permanent pumping- station, let a temporary conduit be laid.

 If these operations be carried out with expedition, it will be possible to obtain some additional water, during the dry season of 1903-4.

remarks on

 15. It is evident that the Water-question is pressing. It is one which should take General precedence of all other sanitary improvements, such as those of sewerage and drain- the proposed age. The defects, which I have mentioned in connection with the latter are productive scheme. of nuisances, but are not menaces to health, certainly not in comparison with the present water-famine-cholera is at present in our midst. May this not be due to the fact that, owing to the scarcity of water-works water, people are collecting water from all sorts of places, such as nullahs and streams, obviously open to contamination? The actual scarcity of water is not the only, indeed, the principal menace to the public health. The intermittent system, under which the mains are emptied, for a considerable portion of each day, makes it possible for contamination to find its way into the mains. If, by any mischance, the bacillus of cholera were to find its way into the mains, the consequences might be grave. An incident, similar to that which occurred at Maidstone, might occur. Consequently every effort should be made to obviate the necessity for the intermittent system: and, as this cannot be done at once, steps should be taken to render the intermittent system as little objectionable as possible, in the manner suggested in a previous report.

As to the

finite charac- ter of the water-supply of Hongkong.

Deductions

to be drawn from the

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH JUNE, 1902.

At the present moment, it is not practicable to present well-considered reports, plans and estimates. Yet it is necessary to act with promptitude. I have, therefore, endeavoured to devise a programme of work that is certain to produce a benefit, proportional to the expenditure, while leaving ample margin for modi- fications in future design, should further investigations render it desirable so to do.

The expenditure which I have recommended is, I feel convinced, certain to effect, at an early date, a material improvement; and, most probably, will be a first step towards further advances.

16. It must not be supposed that the works which have herein been suggested, will provide Hongkong with a "practically unlimited supply of water," a phrase but too often used at the opening of new water-works, and one which was current in 1889, when the Taitam Water-works were opened. Its fallacy was fully demonstrated during the following year; when, but for some welcome rain, during the dry-season, the stock in the reservoir would have been nearly exhausted, before the commencement of the rainy season.

. Further, I assert that all the supply that can be obtained, within the Island of Hongkong, is finite. Speaking somewhat at random, I doubt the possibility of much more than doubling the present supply, from all sources, by works within the island, of practicable character. There are certain remaining gathering-grounds, notably that draining to Saiwan, whose waters might be utilised. By all means, therefore, let such gathering-grounds be surveyed, and reserved for future use. Again, there are some valuable sources, which may someday, have to be abandoned. I find that, during an ordinary water-year, about one-sixth of the annual supply is derived from streams intercepted, along the courses of the two conduits. If the northern slopes of the hills, above the conduits, are built over, then these streams may have to be abandoned. Again, many now advocate the abandonment of Pokfoolum, some urging this step, on account of the excellent building-sites which would be liberated, others on sanitary grounds. such a step, though I am decidedly of opinion that precedence of any at Pokfoolum.

I do not, of

I do not, of course, advocate works at Taitam, should take

17. From the preceding considerations, the following deductions may, logically, be drawn. The Island of Hongkong can only provide water for a finite mentioned population, the exact number of which I am not prepared to state. The population,

above

considera-

tion.

therefore, must be kept within bounds. Now there is no serious difficulty in so doing. In Hongkong the population does not increase, by the excess of births over deaths. It grows in proportion to the number of dwellings. Each new house is promptly filled to overcrowding. The measures which have been recommended, for the prevention of overcrowding and the construction of insanitary dwellings, tend in the right direction. As the land belongs to the Crown, it is easy to restrict the number of leases granted. I understand that it is proposed to undertake Reclamation to the Eastward of the Naval Yard. If this Reclamation be occupied by insanitary monstrosities, like the dwellings recently erected on the. Praya Reclamation, then the population will increase largely, under extremely insanitary conditions. All future industrial establishments, involving the use of large quantities of water, such as Sugar Refineries, Paper-works, Dye-works and the like, should only be permitted on the mainland. Pressure should be brought to bear, on minor establishments of this character, which do not possess independent supplies, to remove to the mainland, by increasing the price of water, supplied by meter. In short, Hongkong should be, as far as possible, reserved for commerce, properly so called, whilst Kowloon and the New Territory, should be the industrial centre.

Lastly, Waste of Water must be strictly prevented. Though the present water-consumption, per head and per day, is reasonable, it can, certainly, and must be reduced. If the consumption had been reduced to within the amount which has

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH JUNE, 1902.

been shown to be practicable, then it is hardly an exaggeration to say that the present water famine would not have occurred. I will again repeat that the Universal Use of Meters coupled with an appropriate price for water, over and above a certain quantity, is the only efficient means of checking waste. Therefore, I recom- mend that the existing Water Ordinance be amended, in the sense of the original Draft Ordinance of 1890.

I hope to make a more complete examination of the New Territory shortly, and will embody any further remarks in a special report.

I have pointed out that the measuring present arrangements are far from perfect. As the drawings of the improved pparatus at arrangements are in hand, and as the instruments and appliances can be made locally, and filter- I will not lengthen this report by giving a full description of them.

As regards the measurement of the yield of filter-beds, I would observe that the best appliance is a modification of the Venturi Meter devised in connection with a small water-works in the West Indies. If, as is probable, the Albany Filter-beds require alteration, I recommend this adoption of the form of Venturi Meter, which has this advantage that it gives at a glance, without reference to tables or calculation, the quantity of water afforded by the filter-bed, and also the head of water lost in passing through the sand, information which is essential to proper filteration. I also recommend their introduction in connection with the new Kowloon Filter-beds. They are made by Messrs. KENT, 101, High Holborn, London. I cannot remember the price, but it is not great. Prices could be obtained by informing Messrs. KENT of the maximum and minimum quantities to be measured by each gauge.

The quantity that can raised by No. be pumped, in this manner, is some fixed proportion of the water, consumed by the 3 Motor. lower Zone. Now, however, the consumption of water, in the lower Zone, or that part thereof which is supplied from Pokfoolum, is so small that very little work is obtained from the hydraulic motor. The steam-engine, originally provided as a reserve, is now used, almost continuously. This condition is aggravated by the fact that No. 2 Tank is in a ruinous condition, and cannot be filled. If this tank were reconstructed, as I recommended for other reasons, in another report, the flow of water through the motor would be rendered uniform and more work would be obtained from it. I therefore recommend the prompt reconstruction of No. 2 Tank.

22. A large proportion of the water, supplied to the Peak, must always be pumped, by steam, at the Bonham Road Station. As aforesaid, the quantity of water, which can be pumped by hydraulic power, is a fixel fraction of the water consumed, within that portion of the lower Zone. For this reason, the necessary quantity of water, for working the motor, may not always piss through it. Again, though water from Taitam can be pumped, at this station, by steam, this water cannot be used for driving the motor, on account of the relatively low level of

Albany Reservoir, 350 feet above O.D., as against 430 feet, in the case of Pokfoo- lum. As the supply from Pokfoolum is relatively small, conditions may arise, as at the present moment, under which there will not be water enough to provide the motive-power for pumping even the present supply, far less an increased supply, to the Peak. Practically, therefore, the existing steam-engine is the principal means of pumping to the Peak, and the hydraulic motor must be considered as an auxiliary, to relieve the engine, and so save coal, whenever conditions obtain, permitting its use. It is not safe to trust to one steam-engine, especially to one that has been over-worked, and now requires thorough over-hauling.

23. A new hydraulic motor and pumps have been recently erected, in con- nection with the Bowen Road Filter-beds and Reservoir. It is so constructed that which it will it can pump a reduced quantity of water to the Peak, or a larger quantity to the raise water. 700 feet level, with equal efficiency. It was originally designed to pump to a

proposed reservoir on Mount Gough, at a level of 1,550. As, however, the Mount-- Gough Reservoir, is not yet constructed, reduced high-lift pump-rams have been provided, so that it can pump a lesser quantity of water, to a height of 1800 feet. Therefore, No. 4 Motor at Bowen Road, can now pump 15,000 gallons per day, if not actually into the highest reservoir, on the summit of the Peak, it will, no doubt, pump into the large service-reservoir, which is 70 feet lower, and it will certainly pump into the general system of mains, when the pressure is reduced by the draw-off.

24. The consumption of water at the Peak now amounts in summer to 70,000 cannot be gallons a day. Most of this is pumped by the existing steam-engine. Now the a principal hydraulic motor at Bowen Road can, with the reduced rams, pump only 15,000 gallons a day against the full head. If, however, the existing rams were replaced by larger ones, as originally proposed, it would then pump 26,000 gallons in 24 hours to the reservoir on Mount Gough. It cannot pump more, being limited by the supply of water for motive power, afforded by the Bowen Road filter-beds. The Bowen Road motor cannot be regarded as a principal or even an alternative source of supply to the Peak. The Bonham Road engine must be the principal source of supply, and the supply from Bowen Road must be regarded as secondary only. Moreover, the Mount Gough reservoir is not high enough to command the whole of the Peak Districts.

zone.

25. There is another reason for regarding the supply to the Peak from Bowen Road as secondary only. There appears to be a tendency to build above the con- for 700 feet duit up to the level of about 700 feet. The consumption of water, in this zone, is, therefore, likely to increase and it is probable that, before long, the Bowen Road motor will be fully occupied in pumping to the 700 feet reservoirs (it is provided) with large pumps for this purpose). This is a further reason why Bowen Road motor cannot be regarded as a principal source of supply to the Peak.

   New Engine and Boiler

provided at Bonham Road.

26. These considerations shew that steam-power, at Bonham Road Station, must always be regarded as the principal source of the Peak supply. If the existing engine were to break down, it is clear that the Peak supply would be reduced to the small amount that the Bonham Road motor can pump, a quantity again limited by the consumption of water in the District supplied by gravity from Bonham Road Station. There must therefore be a reserve pumping engine at Bonham Road Station. In laying down a new engine it will be well to have one which will provide for future contingencies. I therefore recommend the prompt erection of a steam-engine, boiler and pumps capable of raising 100 gallons per minute, to the summit of the Peak. The pumps, like those of the Bowen Road motor, should be so arranged that they can, if required, raise a much larger quantity of water to the lower level (700 feet zone) thus utilising the full power and developing the best efficiency of the engine, under both conditions.

to Peak.

27. The original rising-main from Bonham Road Station to the Peak is 27" Rising_main in diameter. It has recently been duplicated with one of 3" in diameter. I learn that the old rising main is much corroded and that, at the present moment, it is not used. There is little doubt that it could be cleaned and repaired, were it worth while so to do.

I find, however, that even two three-inch pipes will not suffice to carry the water that the proposed new steam-engine will pump. The new engine is to pump 100 gallons per minute, and the hydraulic motor will lift, when going full speed, about 40 gallons per minute. It is, therefore, desirable that a rising main, large enough to convey the water pumped, both by the new steam-engine and by the hydraulic motor, when working simultaneously, should be laid down. To this end I recommend that a new main, composed of equal lengths of 5′′ and 6′′ diameter, be forthwith provided. The larger pipe should be placed at the top of the hill, where the lesser pressure obtains. The existing mains should be removed, cleaned and re-coated. They may then be used elsewhere, perhaps in connection with the Kowloon Water-works.

28. The effect of the proposed works, at Bonham Road, will be as follows. Effect of proposed The proposed new engine will lift 100 gallons per minute to the Peak. Working arrange- for twelve hours daily, it will give a supply of 72,000 gallons, about the present. ment. summer supply of the Peak District. When the No. 2 tank is re-constructed, the existing hydraulic motor will be able to work day and night, raising 57,600 gallons of water in addition to that raised by the steam-engine. Lastly, the Bowen Road motor will raise 15,000 gallons per day with the existing reduced rams, or 26,000 with those of the larger diameter as originally proposed. The Peak, therefore, may receive, from these three sources, 155,000 gallons per day. If the proposed new steam-engine were worked, night and day, then a further supply of 72,000 gallons per day could be given. By the time that this is wanted, it will be advisable to duplicate the proposed new engine, but this will not, I believe, occur for many years

to come.

have, therefore, reduced the expenditure to sterling, using the approximate rate of exchange that ruled during the several periods.

The capital cost of the water-works, throughout the Colony, may therefore be estimated at £435,441 or at the rate of £1.45 per head of the population, a very moderate sum, as the following figures, taken from the Presidential Address of Mr. JAMES MANSERGH, M. Inst. C.E., fully shew:-

Conclusion.

The supply, during 1901, was at the average rate of 3.53 millions of gallons per day. The capital cost per million gallons per day is, therefore, £435.441 £123,354.*

The total expenditure, therefore, per million gallons per day, is also by no means excessive.

30. Nor is the taxation excessive.. The total Water Revenue collected from all sources in 1901, was $168,966 or at the rate of $0.562 per head per annum. Taking it per 1,000 gallons delivered, the rate was

$0.13 per 1,000 gallons, a low price.

168,966 1,287,000

31. I think, therefore, that it is clear that the Government of Hongkong may safely incur a fresh expenditure on water-works, at least equal to that incurred up to date, and also increase the water-rate or price for water sold by meter in such manner as to pay maintenance, interest and sinking-fund, on the augmented capital.

Re HONGKONG-KOWLOON, WATER SUPPLY.

GENTLEMEN,

WESTMINSTER, S. W.,

20th December, 1901.

1. I have the honour to return, herewith, the plans and papers, concerning a proposed water supply for Kowloon, and I beg to report thereon as follows:-

2. The works, now proposed, are more extensive and will afford a larger supply than those originally projected by Mr. GIBBS, and described in his report, dated 8th January, 1900. I am of opinion that the rapid increase of population, stated by the Director of Public Works, fully justifies the additional cost of the

more extensive scheme.

the original scheme, and obviously would not produce a nearly three-fold increase in the yield. In the report of the Director of Public Works, paragraph 12 section 2, a "Catch-water" is mentioned. This, I presume, brings in the water from some area, amounting to 400 acres, not shewn on the plan, and therefore making a total of about 800 acres. Applying to this area the Hongkong data, quoted in my report of 17th August, 1900, the available daily supply would be 1,488,000 gallons a day, an amount agreeing substantially, with that estimated by the Director of Public Works, namely, 1,575,000 gallons a day.

4. According to the same data, a reservoir capacity equal to 200 days' consumption, will be required to maintain the supply. The now proposed reservoir is to contain 310 millions of gallons, so that, according to Hongkong experience, it should suffice to maintain the desired supply.

5. I am glad to learn that it is now proposed to construct a masonry dam. I do not consider that it would be safe to construct an earthen dam, of the height now proposed, nearly 100 feet. Indeed I hold the opinion, one shared I believe by most Engineers, that masonry (including concrete) should be preferred, whenever the conditions for its use, are reasonably favourable,

6. The section of the masonry dam is judiciously designed. I have inves- tigated the stresses, and I find that the conditions of stability, usually accepted, are fully satisfied, even when the reservoir is full to the very crest, in other words when the water-level, during a great flood is 4 feet above the cill of the waste-weir. The stresses per square foot are, speaking from memory, less than those which obtain in the case of the Taitam Dam.

7. I agree with the Director of Public Works, that the damn should be carried up to carried up, at once, to the full height. The saving, due to leaving off at a lower level, will be small. The reservoir capacity, even at the full height, is by no means excessive. The crest of the dam is to serve as a road or path. By completing the dam at once, this roadway can be constructed at its final level, and will not require subsequent alteration.

8. I presume that trial-pits have been sunk, along the centre line of the dam, and that the depths of foundation, shewn on the sheet of sections have been fixed in accordance with their indications. No longitudinal section of the dam is given, so I am unable to ascertain the intentions of the designers, in the matter of found- ations. I am however of opinion that in getting out the foundations, stepping should be avoided. The base of the foundations. should, as far as possible, be an uniformly inclined line. Abrupt changes of level should be avoided, as far as possible, because sudden variations in depth tend to cause irregular settlement.

9. No drawing of the waste-weir has been sent to me, I am not therefore in a position to offer any opinion as to its sufficiency. The position of the waste-weir as indicated on the general plan, is satisfactory. The length of the waste-weir should be sufficient to discharge 4" of rain, falling on the gathering-ground which contributes directly to the reservoir, plus the maximum quantity of water that the catch-water channel can convey. The latter should be provided with overflows, at points where it crosses natural drainage channels.

10. The draw-off arrangements are satisfactory in principle. Some minor alterations in detail seem desirable. It is hardly necessary to go into this question at present, for the outlet apparatus will not be required, for some time to come.

11. It is worthy of consideration whether the sectional area of the outlet- culvert might not be increased with advantage, so as to provide water-way for the passage of rain-water during moderate floods. If, during a great flood the unfinish- ed dam is overtopped, no great damage will result. This is one of the great merits of masonry as against earth. An earth dam, if overtopped, would be des- troyed.

construction.

 12. I recommend that the dam be constructed departmentally, and not by Method of contract, so as to ensure perfect workmanship, an arrangement adopted by Mr. MANSERGH, Past President Inst. C.E., in the case of the dams for the Birmingham Water-works. At any rate, most careful supervision will be required. Competent European foremen or inspectors must supervise the work continuously. All cement should be provided by the Government.

13. In the case of the Taitam Dam, the late Sir ROBERT RAWLINSON, K. C. B., directed numerous small drains to be formed in the mass of the concrete behind the dam. the inner lining of masonry intended to be water-tight, in order that should any water find its way through the said lining it would flow freely away,

                         freely away, and not accumulate in any fissure or cavity, causing an upward hydrostatic pressure, tending to reduce the stability of the structure. I consider that this would be a wise pre- caution. In the case of Taitam it was not however adopted, because those in charge of construction thought that the concrete would be sufficiently porous, to prevent any such prejudicial accumulation. As a matter of fact, the Taitam dam leaks considerably through the mass of the concrete. I maintain that concrete should be impervious, the interstices between the stones being completely filled with mortar. Percolation through concrete tends to its disintegration. Mr. MANSERGH informs me, that in the case of the Birmingham Dams, he is not draining the whole mass of the concrete, in the manner recommended by the late Sir ROBERT RAWLINSON, but he is taking every precaution to render the whole mass absolutely homogeneous and impervious. The only drains which he introduces are to remove the land springs, found in the excavations for the foundations, and he has also provided a single drain, at a low level, below the whole length of the dam, to remove any water which might by chance percolate through the water face, below the foundations, and this drain communicates with the out-let culvert.

The main reason why be disturbed. the water of "Pokfolum Reservoir" is so turbid after heavy rain, is because so much bare soil is exposed, within its gathering-ground, owing to excavation for roads, and for building-sites.

 15. In conclusion, I beg to record my opinion that the project for the water- supply of Kowloon is sound and one that may be sanctioned.

SIR,-I have the honour to report that I have visited the site of the proposed Con rming. works in company with the Honourable the Director of Public Works and with Mr. Peport and GIBBS, C.E. I have also inspected the Plans, and fully discussed them with the approving said Engineers. I beg to confirm the opinion, which I have already expressed in a report dated 20th December, 1901, to the effect that the Design is in every way satisfactory; and that the Project is one that should be carried out forthwith.

Composition of concrete.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH JUNE, 1902.

2. There are, however, some points concerning which some modification or reconsideration appears to be desirable. One of these concerns the composition of the Concrete.

Three qualities of Cement Concrete are specified, for different portions of the work, composed as follows:-

Parts by Measure.

1st Quality. 2nd Quality. 3rd Quality.

Now, I am of opinion that in making concrete, care should be taken to make the resultant mass thoroughly homogeneous and free from voids. To fulfil this condition, it is essential that the voids between the broken stone forming the matrix shall be entirely filled with cement mortar, and secondly that the interstices between the sand-grains shall be completely filled with cement. Most of the troubles which have occasionally been experienced in connection with concrete, are traceable to porosity. Portland cement, though practically insoluble when in solid mass, is not so when finely-divided. If water be caused to percolate through a porous mass of Portland cement and sand, the interstices between the grains not being fully filled with cement, the mass will disintegrate in time.

It has, therefore, been my practice, in case of important works like the present, not to resort to any arbitrary prescription, as to the composition of concrete; but to determine, experimentally, the percentage of voids in the matrix and in the sand, and then to fix the proportions in a scientific manner.

3. The proportion of voids in the broken stone may be determined as follows. Take a sample of the broken-stone, and soak it in water. Then drain off all water, broken stone. not actually absorbed. Take any water-tight vessel, such as a bucket or cask. Weigh it empty. Let its weight empty, or tare, be T, then fill with water, and let the weight of bucket and water be W, so that the nett weight of the contained water will be W-T. Empty out the water, and fill the bucket with stones. Weigh again, let the weight of the bucket and stones be S. Now add water, so as to fill-the- interstices, between the stones. Weigh again. Let the final weight (bucket, water

and stones) be P. Then

The percentage of voids in stones, broken to approximately uniform cubes, like road-metal, is about 50%. This may however be materially reduced by using assorted sizes, the smaller particles inserting themselves between the larger masses. Haying determined the actual percentage of voids, a sufficient proportion of cement mortar must be provided, to fill them, when the cement and sand are mixed and moistened ready for use, in a plastic condition.

4. The voids in the sand which is to be mixed with the cement may be deter- mined in like manner. Usually they amount to about 33%, so that three of sand to one of cement, is about the poorest mixture that can be expected to be non-porous. It usually suffices however to determine, experimentally; the volume of plastic mortar which is formed by some given proportion of cement, sand and water. For example, take say one cubic foot of cement and two of sand. Mix with water, into a paste of proper consistency, and measure the resulting mortar in a cubic foot box. Usually two and one will give 2 to 2 of finished mortar. Suppose that the latter is the case, and that the percentage of voids, in the matrix, is 50%. Then the proper proportions will be 41: 2: 1.

SHIZ

The proposed mixtures may or may not fulfil the conditions of the case. This will depend upon the percentage of voids in the matrix.. The first quality mortar seems likely to be homogeneous. One of cement and two of sand makes, usually, about two parts of mortar, which, with the usual voids, will suffice for 4

L

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH JUNE, 1902.

parts of broken stone. The second and third quality mortars seem less likely to be homogeneous. The best and only certain plan is to determine the proportions experimentally, according to the voids actually found in the matrix.

5. I attach so much importance to complete solidity that, if concrete propor- Use of red

Recent experiments made in Germany, show that the addition of Puzzolana to Portland cement, improves its setting properties. Portland cement, in setting, liberates a certain proportion of hydrate of lime. When Puzzolana is present it combines forthwith, with the lime liberated, thus preventing effervescence and obviating porosity. In certain water-works in Mauritius a mixture of burned coral-lime, coral sand, red earth and a small proportion of cement, was used with success. It was also found that the addition of red earth to the cement and sand mortar, used for jointing pipes, completely obviated porosity, which was most difficult to avoid when sand alone was used. I think that it would be well worth while to experiment with various mixtures of stone, sand and cement, with and without red earth, the voids in any case being filled. If 9" cubes, of the several samples, were made, and sent home to me at the University College, I shall be happy to have them crushed, in the testing machine, belonging to the Engineering Laboratory. The exact strength of each mixture would then be known, and it could be allotted to the part of the work for which it

proves suitable.

7. It is desirable to construct a regular Drain or Culvert running along the Construction whole of the length of the dam, at the lowest point of the foundation and located drainage of immediately behind the water-tight mass, forming the water-front or inner lining of the dam. This Drain will serve to collect and carry off any spring-water, that may be found during construction. It should have a free outlet at the lowest level possible, so that, should there be any failure to produce an absolutely water-tight junction with the soil or rock, it will effectively prevent any accumulation of water under full pressure, beneath the foundation, so as to exert a prejudicial upward pressure. If there be any other water-bearing springs or fissures, in any part of the foundation, their water should be collected and conveyed to the main drain or to the outlet channel from it, which should always be left open. If there be any leakage it is better that it should be visible and escape freely than that it should accumulate and perhaps do unseen and unknown mischief.

superstruc-

8. I trust that if the suggestions which I have made as to the composition of Drainage of concrete be adopted the whole mass of the dam will be homogeneous and water- tare of dam. tight. Nevertheless I think that it would be a prudent precaution to provide open channels or drains, extending through the whole mass from the outer-face to with- in about 4 feet of the inner water-tight face. These drains might be of 3" Chinese stoneware pipes, of the commonest quality, spaced vertically and horizontally, about ten feet apart. These pipes can do no harm, they will cost little, and they may, if any local mistake be made in construction, be the means of relieving a congestion of water, which might be prejudicial. They will, at least, afford the means of localising any leakage, should one exist. I am fully aware that the pro- vision of drains, through the mass of a masonry dam, is not a common practice. Mr. MANSERGH is not doing so at the Birmingham water-works. But it is to be remembered that these works are being carried out in England, departmentally, and with an abundance of highly skilled supervision, and not by a Chinese con- tractor, and limited skilled inspection.

Subsidiary filter-beds.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 6TH JUNE, 1902.

10. I am of opinion that it will be advisable to reduce the diameter of the out- let valves in the tower to 6", providing proper taper-pieces for connection with them. With suitably-formed taper-pieces the delivery will not be appreciably reduced, and the smaller valves will be much easier to open and shut, than the large, and much less liable to breakage, in so doing. Some arrangement for closing the outlets, outside the tower, in the event of breakage, should be provided. These matters can be arranged, when the indent for the iron-work is sent in.

11. The drawings of the filter-beds have not yet been completed. If they are designed, on the lines of those now in use in Hongkong, they will answer well. I recommend however that each filter-bed be provided with a separate Venturi- meter constructed in accordance with a special arrangement, adapted for the regula- tion of filtration. On my return to England I will be happy to obtain a quotation for these meters.

12. It would also be well to provide one large recording Venturi meter, for registering the daily consumption of water from the service-reservoir.

13. It is desirable to measure the flow of the streams close below the reservoir, during construction. The arrangements should be such as to admit of accurate measurement, not only of dry weather flow, but also of moderate floods.

Probably the best arrangement would be one similar to that suggested for the measurement of the flow of Taitam stream; a large V notch for measuring small flows, and a wide square notch, for floods. It will be well also to have a self- recording water-level indicator, at each gauge.

14. The service-reservoir drawings are not yet complete. It is very properly to be roofed. I have recently used roofs composed of concrete on steel girders and joists supported by cast iron stanchions, an arrangement which has usually proved more economical than masonry arches and piers. Whether this would be the case, in the present instance, I cannot say. It would however be well to get out alter- native designs for the two classes of roofs. The proposed circular form lends itself to the site and naturally has the shortest length of wall, for a given capacity. I must however state that, owing to the difficulty in devising an economical cover- ing, I have rarely found circular reservoirs economical in first cost.

15. The principal filter-beds are to be placed near to the reservoir. It is proposed to intercept certain streams along the pipe track, between the filter-beds and the service-reservoir, and at each intake to construct a small filter-bed to filter the water of the stream, prior to its admission to the main.

I suggest the use of the Fischer Artificial Filter for these subsidiary beds. This filter consists of flattened bottles, made of porous material, composed of sand and glass, fused together. Each bottle is rectangular 3′ 3′′ × 3′ 3′′ × 4". These are placed upright, in a suitable tank. A large filtering-area is provided, with relatively small floor-space. The water surrounds the filter-plate and passes through its pores, to the interior cavity, whence it is drawn off by appropriate pipes. The main advantage of the Fischer Filter, in the present case, is the ease with which it can be cleaned, and managed. A small cistern is provided at an elevation of about 10 feet, into which filtered water is pumped. The cleaning of the filter is accomplished, merely by altering the adjustment of certain valves so as to reverse the direction of the flow through the filtering material. The filtered water enters the interior cavity, passes out through the pores of the material, and forces off the adhering slime, which is then sludged out of the filtering-chamber. I have experimented on one of these filters, in connection with some very dirty water, and found that it could be cleaned with the utmost ease. I do not assert that the Fischer Filter effects better, even as good, results as well-managed sand-filtration, but I am confident that it will give better results than an ill-managed sand-filter. I fear that it will be both expensive and difficult to secure good management, in the case of small scattered filters.

 16. In the cases of intakes just referred to at which filter-beds are to be Interception provided, it would be well to provide an arrangement, by which the water of the waters. stream is automatically intercepted during floods, so as to prevent unnecessary clogging of the filter beds. This may easily be done by constructing weirs and notches with a receiving channel, below and parallel to the crest. The channel will be so proportioned that when the stream is delivering more than a certain quantity, the cascade or apron overleaps the receiving channel. This arrangement is illustrated in works on water-supply.

This may be done, either by constructing special gauge weirs in the overflow channel, as already des- cribed for use during construction, or by using well-constructed iron-sluices in lieu of the stop-boards with which it is now proposed to crown the waste-weir, after the first three months of the wet season. I am of opinion, that it will be a good plan, in any case to have proper iron sluices, as there is to be a bridge over the waste weir, from which they could be manipulated by means of some simple mechanism. By so doing, the stop sluices will always be to hand where required, and there will be no excuse for neglect to erect them when the time arrives for so doing. Moreover, I see no reason why these sluices should not be so contrived as to open automatically when the water rises to their upper edge. If so arranged, they might be left permanently in place.

 To this end they should be carried on horizontal pivots, placed at one-third of their total height from their lower edge.

SIR,

F. H. MAY Colomini Secretary.

REPORT ON THE QUESTION OF THE HOUSING OF THE

POPULATION OF HONGKONG..

HONGKONG, May 14th, 1902.

  We have the honour to submit for the information of His Excellency a conjoint Report on the question of the housing of the population of Hongkong, and in compliance with the request of His Excellency in Council to prepare a Bill which might reasonably be expected to obviate the necessity for further Sanitary legisla- tion, for the next few years at least, we append a draft Bill on the lines indicated.

  1. The insanitary areas in Hongkong have been formed, first, by the crowding together of too many houses on too small a space; secondly, by sanitary defects in the design of dwelling houses; and thirdly, by overcrowding of the inha- bitants in these houses.

CROWDING TOGETHER OF TOO MANY HOUSES ON TOO SMELL A SPACE.

  2. The crowding together of too many houses on too small a space has been effected by the construction of narrow streets and lanes and by the omission to provide adequate open space in the rear of houses in the shape of back-yards and of back-lanes. The houses have thus been brought into close proximity to one another instead of being well separated with ample space between them. The conditions vary in intensity according to the age of the built over areas. The worst condi- tions are to be found where back to back houses have beer constructed or where the lane between the rear of houses is not more than 6 or & feet wide. In either case neither light nor ventilation is accessible from the back while only a very inade-

quate amount is obtainable from the narrow street or lane in front owing to the height of the houses being out of all proportion to the width of the street or lane. Similar unhealthy conditions occur when the rear of the house abuts on the hill- side with the additional circumstance that the house is rendered damp during the rains from percolation of water from the hill.

The best conditions are to be seen in the newest localities, more especially in Kowloon where the houses are separated from one another by wider streets and where back-yards or back-lanes and in some cases back-yards and back-lanes are pro- vided, but even here, though a great improvement on the old areas has been effected and, in that respect, the conditions are more healthy, yet as will be shown later the separation is not to such an extent as to prevent the areas when completely built over becoming more or less insanitary and bearing a resemblance in a minor degree to the insanitary areas of the older period. Between the old and the new localities there is every variety of density, and as the density of the houses approxi- mates more to the one or to the other, so do the insanitary conditions vary. Houses like individuals require a certain amount of space to themselves to be healthy, and if that space is encroached upon in any way and the houses are brought in close *proximity to one another without compensating arrangements for adequate ventila- tion and exposure of the rooms to sunlight, it is only a matter of time for the locality to become unhealthy.

+

·

3. The necessary amount of separation of houses where property is valuable and where a large population is to be housed is usually secured by regularly laid out streets which bear a proportion in their width to the height of the houses facing them and by a definite proportion of back-yard and back-lane in the rear which also bear in their width a relationship to the height of the house as well as to its roofed

over area.

The importance of the width of the street is readily appreciated because it faci- litates traffic and for that reason there is of recent years no difficulty as a rule in obtaining ample separation of houses facing a street, but the importance of the space behind houses and the necessity for a similar amount of space as exists in the street before another house is permitted to be built in the rear, is not so manifest and consequently there is always a tendency on the part of property owners to curtail this space; the greater their success in curtailment the more unhealthy does the locality become. Wide streets in front of houses, without wide spaces behind to separate them from the houses in the rear, do not provide sufficient air space to secure a healthy locality.

Crowding together of Houses under old Regulations.

4. The crowding together of houses on too small a space is well exemplified in Plate I, which represents an area, bounded by Hollywood Road, Queen's Road Central, Wellington Street and Aberdeen Street. The area of the block is 171,224 square feet, equal to 3.93 acres. It contains 142 houses comprising 470 floors. The area of streets upon which buildings front within this block is 19,890 square feet equal to 0.45 acres. The area of the back-yards and other open spaces around the buildings is 5,516 square feet, equal to 0.13 acre. Thus no less than 85 per cent. of the total area is roofed over, and if the open space of the streets and lanes be excluded, that around buildings only amounts to 3.2 per cent. It is obvious that the crowding together of houses in this block, could hardly be greater, and resump- tion for the purpose of opening out wider streets and improving the sanitary condition of the houses is urgently needed.

Plate II gives a sectional view of another block, which is bounded by Holly- wood Road, Cochrane Street, Lyndhurst Terrace and Pottinger Street. From the streets, which are moderately wide, the block has an excellent external appearance and is likely to give an erroneous impression of the interior which on inspection is found to be packed with houses, separated by narrow lanes. This Plate further illustrates the arrangement of basements which is so common throughout the City.

*

THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902. 989

Plate III is another illustration of buildings being erected too close to one another. On a piece of land of 86 feet in depth two rows of houses have been built separated by a lane of 8 feet. The front houses face Queen's Road, and are four storeys in height. The houses in the rear, are also four storeys high, the two lower of which abut on the side of the hill and are below the level of the street. known as Circular Pathway, while the two higher face, and are entered from, Circular Pathway. It is evident that each house obstructs the light and ventilation of the other and that the two lower stories of the houses at the back of the Queen's Road houses are practically basements.

It is seen from the plan that the space behind the Queen's Road houses is only 8 feet in the form of a lane. This 8 feet space gives, when a line is drawn from the building line of the houses in the rear at the level of the lane, to the back eaves of the Queen's Road houses, an angle of 82°, or the height of the houses is nearly 7 times that of the open space in the rear instead of being either equal to, or 11⁄2 times, or certainly not more than twice.

The usual angles taken for the rear, measured in the same way from the building line to the eaves of the opposite building vary between 45° and 63°, a fair standard being 56°. From the lines drawn on the plan, representing these angles, it is apparent there is no space for another house between the hill side and the rear of the four-storied houses in Queen's Road and the close proximity of the two rows of houses to one another renders both insanitary.

5. The preceding Plates deal with closely packed areas which have existed for many years and which have

        grown up either under old regulations or when there were none. They are typical of the general condition of such areas in different parts of the town. The following three Plates deal, not with the past but with the present; they represent areas on which buildings are now being erected and which are springing up under existing regulations. They show that existing regulations do not prevent crowding together of houses.

The lot consists of two blocks, containing 37 houses of which 21 are old, and 16 The houses are 40 feet in height. The blocks are divided by a 16′ 0′′ private lane which is the frontage of 10 houses in the south blocks and which also forms the open space required by section 56 of Ordinance 13 of 1901* for the rear of the houses in the north block.

990 THE HONGKONG GOV" GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902.

By this section of the Ordinance ten square feet for each foot of width is required at the rear of the houses facing Third Street as they are over 40 feet deep and less than 50 feet. The inclusion of the lane which is really the frontage of the houses on the south side in the calculation of open space for the rear of the houses in Third Street is unsatisfactory enough, but there appears to be nothing in the Ordinance when the houses in Third Street are re-built to prevent the private lane in the rear being encroached on, and the houses being thus brought nearer to one another, or to prevent the owner, should he make Pokfulum Road the frontage and entrance into the houses to contract the private lane, which is no longer a lane on which houses front, to 8 or 11 feet wide which would act as the open space in rear of such buildings and would conform with the existing provisions of the law.

it

7. Plate V, which shows the section of one of the houses in the south block, makes appear that there is between the lower floor of the house and the hill-side a moderately sized open area, throughout its entire width, but a reference to the ground plan shows that this is not the case. The houses are built in echelon fashion

and thus one corner of the building is practically against the toe of the hill-side the open space being triangular in shape.

.

The total area of Inland Lot 799 covers 29,414 square feet. The area built over is 23,620 square feet.

    feet. The area of private lane is 4,480 square feet. The area of open yard is 1,314 square feet. The total area of open space is 5,794 square feet, which is 19 per cent, of the total area, accordingly in this building lot a little over 80 per cent. of the ground is covered with buildings and if the area of the private lane be excluded not more than 4 per cent. of the built over area is devoted to open yards.

8. Inland Lot 816, which is also shown on Plate IV, is bounded on the north by Second Street which is 36′ 0′′ wide, on the south by Third Street which is 30' 6" wide, on the west by Water Street which is 54' 0" wide, and on the east by vacant land the average width of which is 19′ 0′′ and which is in separate ownership and may be built on. It consists of five blocks containing 38 houses, 40 feet in height, of which 24 are new and 14 are old. The 14 old houses face Second Street and comprise one block, 16 of the new houses face Third Street and comprise the second block, while the 8 other new houses have been erected in the intervening space between the row of houses in Second and Third Streets, and comprise the third, fourth and fifth blocks, separated laterally from each of the other blocks by 2 lanes which are respectively 6 feet and 9 feet wide.

The first and second blocks possessed each a space at their rear, before the building of the other blocks of sufficient size to secure an adequate amount of light and ventilation, but the erection of the blocks between them, has altered the character of the lot area, formed two objectionable narrow lanes in addition to two wider private lanes and has materially obstructed the light and circulation of air in the blocks. The building lot as regards crowding of houses upon it is very little superior to or different from older lots. The only difference is that inside the lot six of the houses have small backyards, in compliance with section 56 of Ordinance 13 of 1901. There are also two cross private lanes in order to comply with the regulations as to height of buildings in relation to width of streets, the height of these houses being governed by Ordinance 15 of 1894 as the plans were submitted in 1900, before Ordinance 30 of 1901, re- stricting the height of houses to 1 times the width of the street, was passed. The same arrangement in regard to the crowding together of the houses, however, could have been made even under the Ordinance of 1901. There is moreover nothing in the Ordinance governing the height of houses to prevent the width of the street being taken as a part of the open space required by section 56. In this connection one of the private lanes which is the frontage of two of the interior houses and the width of which governs the height of the houses is also calculated as the open space required by section 56 to be provided in the rear of the houses fronting Water Street.

accordingly 83 per cent. of the total area is built over; and if the private lanes and streets be deducted less than 2 per cent. is devoted to back-yard.

9. Plate VI is Inland Lot 797 which shows buildings that conform to the Ordinances in regard to back-yards and open spaces in the rear. It consists entirely of new houses of which there are 36, but it is only another example on a small scale of the insanitary areas that can be constructed, even when all the houses are new, under the existing regulations, with narrow streets and lanes, and too many houses crowded together.

The lot is bounded on the north by Third Street 30′ 6′′ wide, on the south by a retaining wall to about the level of the second floor and above that by Pokfulam Road 32′ 0′′ wide, on the west by buildings, and on the east by a private street 15' 0' wide.

SANITARY DEFECTS IN THE DESIGN OF CHINESE HOUSES.

10. The defects in design of houses which contribute to their unhealthiness, are caused by their great depth without lateral windows, the position of the kitchen in relation to the dwelling house, the position of the back-lane in relation to the kitchen and the dwelling house, the construction of rooms or basements against or too close to the side of the hill and the division of rooms into cubicles. All of them serve to obstruct the light and free circulation of air so necessary for a healthy dwelling.

Besides the close, narrow and ill ventilated streets and lanes, formed by the

process of erecting too many houses on too small a space, the structure of the houses and of their interior, is not in accordance with sanitary principles. The newer houses are often worse in this respect than the older, for at one time the tendency was to build shallow houses from which sunlight and fresh air were excluded in consequence of other houses being built later in too close proximity to them. As time has gone on the houses have generally become deeper and deeper, until there are being erected on the Praya Reclamation back to back buildings of from 75 to 90 feet each in depth with an extra 10 feet of verandah in each encroaching on the public street.

11. Plates VII and VIII are sections of houses on the Praya Reclamation. In both the buildings are 75 and 90 feet respectively without counting verandahs or balconies. The dwelling rooms in Plate VII are 55 feet long and 12 feet 6 inches wide, in Plate VIII they are 90 feet long and 13 feet wide. There are no lateral windows.

In Plate VII there are windows in front opening into the verandahs and windows behind opening into a small back-yard, 12 feet in width which is the amount of open space required by the Praya Reclamation Ordinance. Behind the back-yard is the kitchen which, owing to there being a kitchen for each floor, forms a building as high as the house, immediately in the rear of the small back-yard, the means of com-

992

THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902.

munication between each storey of the house and the kitchen being by a bridge 3 feet 6 inches wide. The design, it will be seen, is admirably adapted to exclude sunlight and fresh air. There is first of all the long narrow tunnel-like rooms, without lateral windows, which prevent a sufficiency of light reaching, during any part of the day, the greater portion of the room. There is next the small back-yard obstructed by the bridges leading to the kitchens, there is then the high building containing the kitchens abutting immediately on the back-yard, and forming with it a deep well, which only brings light and air to the upper storeys, and finally there is the verandah in front. With a design such as this the rooms on the lower storeys are dark, and oppressively hot and close owing to obstruction of light and stagnation of the air.

12. On a further examination of Plate VII it will be seen that notwithstanding the provision of a back-yard to each house, the design practically leads to the formation of back to back buildings and when analysed resolves itself into 3 blocks of buildings, two of which are the dwelling houses and the third the kitchens forming the middle block, which is separated from the others by narrow spaces called back-yards. The benefits intended to be derived from the back-yard are counteracted by the high build- ing in the centre. With this obstruction removed a far greater amount of light and air would have been admitted into the different rooms, for the block of kitchens which form the obstruction occupy a space of 21 feet 6 inches in depth which, added to the two back-yards, would have made a combined open space in the rear of 42 feet in width which is a greater amount of space than is required by an angle of 56° and a good deal more space than that required by an angle of 63°. The houses on both sides are rendered insanitary by the three extra storeys of kitchen building.

If a kitchen or outhouses had been only required on the ground floor, which is usually the case with European houses in this Colony, and which at the most, are only 12 or 15 feet in height, the design of the kitchen building behind the back- yard and against that of the house in the rear would not have been objectionable except for the absence of a scavenging lane between them, because, out-buildings of the height mentioned would not have obstructed the light and air of the lower storeys of the dwelling houses when the main buildings above that height were separated from one another by a space of over 40 feet. The usual arrangement in Europe to facilitate scavenging, is to have behind the out-buildings an additional small back-lane and such a lane is especially necessary in tropical towns.

This back-lane has been in some instances adopted in Hongkong but, as the kitchens on each storey form a building sometimes of a height of nearly 60 feet, the back-lane does not serve to increase the area of open space available for light and ventilation between the backs of the houses, as is the case when it is between out-buildings of only 12 or 15 feet in height, but it only adds a fresh place for the deposit of filth. The back-lane, behind high kitchens even when the latter have windows facing the lane, which is often not the case, can at the best only affect the kitchens and not the dwelling rooms of the house while for scavenging pur- poses a lane of this kind is ineffectual because for it to be used as such everything would have to be thrown from the windows which is not a desirable practice to encourage. Seeing that in tenement houses, which practically means over 90 per cent. of Chinese houses, there must be a kitchen on each storey for the use of the occupants it is necessary to adopt some other position for the kitchen than that in the rear of the back-yard and this position must be such as not to obstruct the light of the dwelling room, while securing in the rear of the houses, by means of combined back-yards and a scavenging lane, a sufficient distance between opposite buildings to prevent the crowding together of buildings, and to secure an adequate amount of space for light and ventilation of the dwelling rooms.

Back-lanes situated behind kitchen buildings in the rear of back-yards do not light and ventilate the dwelling house. There are houses now being constructed in the Colony which are not only provided with back-yards but also with 15 feet back-lanes, yet because of the position of the kitchen, the back-lane is rendered

useless for the purpose of bringing light and a free circulation of air to the dwelling house, as the supply of light and air obtainable from the back-lane is obstructed by the high building containing the kitchens and never reaches the dwelling rooms of the house for which it was intended. The fact is both back-yard and back-lane are rendered ineffective because of defects in the arrangement and design of the house. This is exemplified in accompanying sketch A where the kitchen building is between the back-yard and back-lane.

It will be seen that a fair amount of ground is given over to provide open spaces. The width of the two back-yards and the back-lane making a width of 45 feet, all of which is practically wasted by being broken up into three separate open areas by two rows of high buildings used as kitchens instead of being combined and thus forming one open space of 45 feet between the dwelling houses. The amount of space actually given up is equal to of the roofed over area together with a scavenging lane of 6 feet in width.

13. Plate VIII illustrates the necessity for limiting the depth of a dwelling house which is not furnished with lateral windows; the dwelling rooms shown are 90 feet in depth by only 13 feet in width, the open space in the rear of this tunnel being practically valueless for the lighting and ventilation of the dwelling rooms. In the Bill provision has been made that no building shall exceed forty feet in depth without lateral windows.

14. Plate IX shows the requirements as to rear space of a Chinese house of an ordinary height of 50 feet with a back-lane of 6 feet in width, for scavenging

purposes.

15. Plate X; which represents a type of house recently built in one part of Hunghom, indicates the direction in which improvements have already been made on the lines indicated.

The kitchen is attached to and forms part of the house. It extends to about half the width of the rear wall of the house which permits a window to be placed in the other half, which looks out into the open yard in the rear. Behind the kitchen is a smaller building which is a latrine for the ground floor. The yard in the rear is enclosed by a wall of about 8 feet in height with a door into a scavenging lane of 15 feet in width. It is not necessary to have scavenging lanes of this width, 6 to 8 feet would meet the requirements of the case, and the remain- ing space could be enclosed by a low wall and would serve to increase the area of the yard behind the house.

Basements and Buildings abutting on Hill-side.

16. In Hongkong the tiers of streets which run from east to west and which have been cut out of the hill-side favour the building of houses which on one side of the street have their rear brought close to the side of the hill and which on the opposite side have the lowermost storey below the level of the street thus forming a basement. If the plots of land abutting on the street are of considerable width two rows of houses are built with a narrow intervening lane between the rows. It is very seldom that an adequate amount of space is provided between the rear of the house and the hill-side, or a good sized area between the street and the basement. As a rule the rear of the house is brought close to or forms part of the hill-side and the basement has for one of its sides the retaining wall of the street or is built up

in close juxtaposition to it, with a small area of a few feet encroaching on the street pathway and covered by a grating which is intended to give light and ventilation to the basement. If a building is in rear of the basement, which is frequently the case, the entrance of light and air is still further excluded from the basement.

17. Plate XI gives a section of the buildings between High Street and Queen's Road West. It is on an area which is notorious for the number of cases of plague that occur in the houses every year. Before 1894 the basements were used for human habitation, but this has since been prohibited, and now they are used as stores and work-shops. They are, however, dark, ill ventilated, damp, insanitary and infested with rats. This year on plague breaking out in one of the houses an infected rat was found in the basement of the house in which the case occurred. As the block had a bad name for plague it was vacated and the inhabitants housed in a block of houses with no basements, with the result that there have been no further cases among the persons removed.

Houses containing basements of the kind described are always unhealthy, and more or less infested with rats, and are never dry during the rains.

Basements are also to be found in houses fronting streets which run down the hill-side. Whenever practicable these should be filled up.

In future houses, all basements should be abolished. There are many houses built without them so that there is nothing impracticable in demanding, in all new houses, the abolition of the basement.

If basements are to be allowed at all, which should be quite exceptional, they should be at least 8 feet away from the retaining wall of the street. The house being thus provided with an area in front of the basement can be entered by a properly constructed arched step-way. It is important that the basement thus formed shall have a wide back-lane or yard behind it.

Cubicles.

18. A Chinese tenement house is usually three or four storeys in height. Each storey consists of one long room with a kitchen attached. It is not a floor in the Euro- pean sense of the term, which often consists of half a dozen separate rooms. It is important to remember that a floor as referring to a Chinese tenement house, means a single room. It has been previously stated that this room is long and narrow extending from the front of the house to the back without lateral windows, and on account of its great depth is as a rule deficient in fresh air and exposure to sunlight. In order to make this room serviceable for more than one family, it is partitioned off into small cabins or cubicles. The partitions of the 4 or 6 cubicles into which the room is divided are by section 70 of Ordinance No. 13 of 1901,* not permitted to be higher than 6 feet.

*70. The following requirements shall be observed with regard to cubicles and partitions :-.

(a.) In domestic buildings fronting streets of a width of less than fifteen feet, no cubicles or partitions

shall be erected, or if already existing shall be allowed to remain, except on the top floor. (b.) In domestic buildings fronting streets of a width of fifteen feet or over, no cubicles or partitions

other than

"ping fung" (ie, shop divisions) shall be erected, or if already existing

shall be allowed to remain, on the ground floor, and in the case of every such "ping fang" there must be a space between the top thereof and the ceiling or under side of the joists of the room of not less than four feet, which may be closed in only by wire netting, lattice work or carved woodwork, arranged in such a way as to leave at least two-thirds open and as far as practicable evenly distributed.

(c.) No cubicles or partitions shall be erected, or if already existing shall be allowed to remain, in any

kitchen.

(d.) Where one cubicle only is hereafter erected or already exists in any room of a domestic building, no portion of the structure of such cubicle shall exceed eight feet in height; where two cubicles only are so erected or exist, no portion of the structure of either of such cubicles shall exceed seven feet in height; where more than two cubicles are so erected or exist, no portion of the structure of any such cubicles shall exceed six feet in height. In all cases, however, there must be a space between the top of every portion of the structure of such cubicles and the ceiling or under side of the joists of the room of not less than four feet, which may be closed only by wire netting, lattice work or carved woodwork, arranged in such a way as to leave at least two-thirds open, and as far as practicable evenly distributed.

(e) No cubicles whatever shall be erected in any room of a domestic building, or if already existing shall be allowed to remain, unless such room is provided with a window or windows opening directly into the external air and having a total area clear of the window frames of at least one- tenth of the floor area.

(f) No portion of the structure of any cubicle except the necessary corner posts shall be nearer than two inches to the floor of such cubicle, and no structure shall be erected, of if already existing shall be allowed to remain, within any cubicle, which is of a greater height than the maximum height allowed by this section for any portion of the structure of such cubicle or which provides a cover or roof to the cubicle.

(g.) No partition shall be erected, or if already existing shall be allowed to remain, nearer than four feet to any window the area of which is included in calculating the window area specified in sub- section (e.)

(h.) No cubicle used for sleeping purposes shall have a less floor area than sixty-four square feet, and a

less length or width than seven feet.

For the purposes of this section every sub-division of a domestic building, unless such sub-division has a window or windows opening directly into the external air and having a total area clear of the window frames equal to one- tenth of the floor area of such sub-division, shall be deemed to be a cubicle.

When a long and already ill lighted room is subdivided by three or four or even as many as five or six cubicles, the effect is that in only the cubicle next to the window is there any light or fresh air. The others are quite dark and the air is stagnant in them. In addition to the families which occupy the cubicles there are, as a rule, some beds in the remaining portion of the room on which the tenant and family or friends sleep. The amount of overcrowding which this arrangement causes is sometimes to encourage over 20 people to sleep in one room. None of the cubicles, except the front and back, have any windows except in the case of corner houses. Nothing will remedy this state of things but the abolition for all future houses of cubicles unless they have a window to each and the limitation of cubicles in existing houses to top floors, where skylights and special arrangements for ventilation can be introduced and perhaps to corner houses which have lateral windows opening into side streets of not less than twenty feet in width.

19. Plate XII illustrates the arrangement of cubicles in houses in Aberdeen Street and Square Street.

Verandahs.

20. The large masonry verandahs three and four storeys high encroaching on the public streets to the extent of 10 feet on each side lessen the width of the streets and at the same time darken the rooms of the houses, especially of the two lower floors. In all new streets, verandahs encroaching on the public way should not be allowed. Many houses have not these masonry verandahs, but have small balconies of a lighter structure on their own land.

Plate XIII shows a row of houses in the same street with balconies on their own land and another row with masonry verandahs encroaching on the public street. The houses with the balconies get their rooms better lighted and ventilated than those with the verandahs. There is no encroachment on and narrowing of the public way. Masonry verandahs projecting on to the street were first constructed as a concession and privilege. Now it is almost looked upon as a right which permits the builder to construct in a three or four-storied house 2 or 3 extra rooms at the expense of the Government, i.e., on Government land, because the verandahs become practically rooms of the house. If a builder desires to attach verandahs to his house he should be allowed to do so only on condition that the verandahs do not encroach on Crown land. Similarly so in regard to balconies. The erection of balconies on narrow streets only renders these streets narrower and should be discontinued.

General Statement regarding Design of Chinese Houses.

21. From the foregoing it will be gathered that the Chinese tenement houses in Hongkong differ in style from the European. They also differ from the ordinary Chinese houses in Canton or other Chinese city, where the buildings are not more than two storeys in height and often not more than one. By some gradual process of evolution they have taken on the worst features of both kinds of houses and none of their best. The tenement houses in Hongkong consist of several storeys, each storey containing one long room lighted at each end by a window but without lateral windows. Each room is subdivided into cabins called cubicles which accom- modate an entire family. The room on each floor communicates in the rear by a bridge with the kitchen which is separated from the house by a small yard; and in front with a masonry verandah which encroaches on the public street and which being separated by partitions from the adjoining houses is used as an additional room for the house.

The length of room without lateral windows, the kitchen buildings in the rear and the smallness of the back-yard, by obstructing the free access of light and air cause the two lower storeys at least to be dark and badly ventilated. The verandahs in front still further increase this undesirable condition and the cubicles in the

i

room intensify it to such an extent that none of the rooms are healthy habitations. The cubicle system leads to overcrowding in its worst form and, with the absence of light and fresh air, under its worst conditions, for with the existing design of buildings whenever there are more than two cubicles in a room even in the upper storeys the compartment is dark and devoid of fresh air. With darkness, absence of fresh air and overcrowding it is impossible to keep them clean.

New Designs.

22. In order to secure lateral windows to the rooms of Chinese houses and so provide a window for each cubicle, designs of various kinds have been sent to the Building Authority and several of these are now reproduced. They show that the problem is not an insoluble one and that the difficulties connected with the proper housing of the Chinese are not insurmountable.

23. Plate XIV represents an improved type of Chinese houses designed by the Honourable W. CHATHAM, Director of Public Works. It solves the cubicle question in the room, for it gives to each a window which will permit of sufficient amount of light and ventilation in the cubicle. The only objection to the building as a whole is that there is no provision for a back-yard, which is an important place for the inhabitants of the house if they are not to do their washing and carry on their general domestic work in the back-lane. Besides in a back-yard a water pipe can be placed for the use of the inmates instead of as now having a water pipe for every storey with extravagant waste and consequent scarcity in the dry

season.

24. Plate XV is a design sent in by WM. DANBY, Esq., M. Inst. C.E., to the Chairman of the Committee re the Housing of the Chinese, as far back as 10th July, 1894. It is an excellent design and plan, not only intending to cover the question of cubicles but also that of the relation of houses to one another. We do not however agree with Mr. DANBY as to the number of persons he thinks these houses would contain and yet remain in a sanitary condition. He would allow 21 square feet for each person; 30 is the existing rule but it ought not to be less than 50 square feet. As Mr. DANBY's communication to the Housing Committee is important it is reproduced in the Appendix.

25. Plate XVI represents a design by Messrs. PALMER & TURNER. It has many. advantages in its arrangements especially with reference to the staircase which in the ordinary type of house is excessively steep and narrow as well as being dark, but the amount of yard or courtyard is not sufficiently wide for each house. Instead of being 11 feet it should be at least 15 with a certain amount in the rear extending the width of the house and courtyard.

OVERCROWDING.

26. There are two kinds of overcrowding in Hongkong-one produced by the close proximity of the houses, crowding the occupants of the houses on a small area; the other by too many inmates occupying one house.

Both of these may occur apart from one another but it is usual for them to be found together producing conditions of the worst kind. Plate I, showing a block of houses in Health District No. 5, furnishes an example of both kinds, for not only are the houses crowded together thus raising the density of population

but the houses themselves are overcrowded with people. The interior of this block should be resumed and one or more streets cut through it so that the remaining buildings can be laid out on sanitary principles.

*

There are many smaller areas like it, which can be rectified only by remov- ing every other row of buildings. The latter process would reduce the surface overcrowding, but it would not affect the overcrowding of the people in the

* Since this report was drafted a number of the houses in this arca have been destroyed by fire and it is very important that advantage should be taken of the opportunity thus afforded to carry out the necessary reforms.-W. J. S.

998 THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902.

of the Board, as we consider that such a Board is capable of doing much good work. on behalf of the Colony. The Bill accordingly imposes upon the Sanitary Commis- sioner the duty of dealing with all nuisances and sanitary defects of whatever nature, but leaves to the Board the power of granting licences, permits, exemptions, etc., of controlling the policy of the Department and of advising the Government as to the sanitary needs of the Colony. We consider moreover that there should still be a Medical Officer of Health and an Assistant Medical Officer of Health who, with the Surveyor and the Colonial Veterinary Surgeon would continue to be the chief executive officers of the Board. It has moreover been deemed necessary to trans- fer the Port Health Officers to the Sanitary Department as their duties are essentially sanitary and their separation only tends to render inefficient the work of sanitary administration.

With regard to the Building clauses contained in Part III of the Bill, careful consideration has been given to the Report submitted by the local Architects, and many of their suggestions, have been adopted such for instance as the non-applica- tion of the Ordinance to buildings already planned (within certain limits of time) and contracted for, the right of an authorized architect to appear before the Execu- tive Council before his name is removed from the list, the question of the rights of adjacent owners, and other matters of smaller moment to which our attention has been directed by the said report.

With regard to the setting back of buildings in narrow private streets, it has not been thought necessary to go beyond the law of 1889, which required an open space of seven and a half feet at least as measured from the middle of the lane or street, to be left in front of any such new building.

The provisions of the European Reservation Ordinance of 1888 are incorporated (with some amendment of the boundaries) in Part III and it will be found that several of the clauses in this Part relating to construction only apply to build- ings outside such reservation, as they have been especially drawn to meet the conditions which obtain in Chinese tenement houses and others of that class.

With regard to the resumption of insanitary property, many blocks of build- ings throughout the City of Victoria will undoubtedly have to be gradually bought up by the Government and the areas laid out in a more sanitary manner, more open space around each building being an especial desideratum in many of the most congested areas, and we have accordingly incorporated in this Bill the clauses of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordinance which appear to follow closely the provisions of the Imperial Housing of the Working Classes Act and to provide all the neces- sary powers for the resumption of insanitary or obstructive buildings. In such cases compensation for resumption is always given, but the Bill does not propose to offer compensation to the owners for the erection of sanitary dwellings on land at present unoccupied, nor for the re-erection, on land already occupied, of dwellings of an improved type to those now in existence. The right of an owner of property to re-erect dwellings of an insanitary type, because his present dwellings are insanitary, should not be admitted.

In regard to the question of cubicles it should be specially noted that the Bill does not prohibit cubicles, but regulates them by requiring that every cubicle shall be provided with a window into the external air. As every cubicle is a dwelling compartment for one or more persons, and often for an entire family, it is only in accordance with the ordinary laws of sanitation to require that it shall be separately lit and ventilated by a window into the external air. The law has required since 1894 that

every "habitable room" shall be so provided * and it is not in accordance with the spirit of that law that a dwelling-room with one or two windows, should be sub- divided into a number of rooms, each occupied by a family, of which only the room

* Ordinance 15 of 1894, s. 8.--(@) Every person erecting a new building shall provide every habitable room therein with one window, at least, opening directly into the external air, and he shall cause the total area of such window or windows, clear of the window frames to be at least one-tenth of the floor area of every such room.

THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902. 999

at the front of the building and possibly the one at the back can have windows into the external air. No person can legitimately claim the right to house tenants in window- less rooms, merely with a view to increasing the rental of his property, and where such has been done, no claim to compensation should be entertained for the discontinuance of this dangerous practice.

 Every material amendment of the present law has, we believe, been enclosed within square brackets so that the reader may see at a glance what is new and what is not, and the following is a table showing the arrangement of the clauses, together with a brief resumé of the amendments with notes of the reasons why they have been incorporated in this Bill, where such reasons appear to be called for.

8. Constitution of the Sanitary Board. We have provided here for the appointment of a

Sanitary Commissioner who shall be ex-officio Chairman of the Board.

In order to pre-

serve a majority, of unofficial members on the Board we have been reluctantly compelled to provide that the Medical Officer of Health should cease to be a member of the Board, his seat being taken by the Sanitary Commissioner, although we consider that the services. of the present Medical Officer of Health on the Board have been invaluable. In any case, however, the Medical Officer of Health should attend the meetings of the Board as their professional adviser, and chief executive officer.

31. Board may review notice. This clause provides a right of appeal to the Board by any person

dissatisfied with the action of the Sanitary Commissioner.

32. On non-compliance with notice, complaint to be made to a Magistrate. Proviso. It has been thought advisable to give the Sanitary Commissioner power to abate certain nuisances forthwith, if the notice is not complied with, instead of making application to a Magistrate for an order and penalty; this power has been taken more especially in regard to nuisances intimately associated with the dissemination of plague.

33. (1) Power of Magistrate to make an order dealing with the nuisance. (2) Penalty. 34. (1) Order of prohibition of use, etc., of building unfit for human habitation. (2) Closure of

premises which have become a nuisance to the neighbourhood. The latter clause is new, as there appears to be at present no powers for dealing with such premises, and it is possible that offensive or objectionable trades might be carried on in undesirable localities, and yet not fall within the definition of "Offensive trades" given in section 6

43. Establishment of dangerous or offensive trades.

44. Nuisances in factories, workshops or workplaces.

45. Prohibition of occupation for domestic purposes of any building in which a dangerous or offensive trade is carried on. The four foregoing clauses are new; it is very desirable that cement works, white lead factories, alkaļi works and so on, should not be established in overcrowded parts of the Colony, nor that such premises should be occupied as dwellings without some control by the Sanitary Authority.

BASEMENTS.

46. Basements may not be occupied without permission.

47. Filling in of basements which are insanitary. This is a new clause which appears to be very

necessary in connection with the question of the dissemination of plague by rats.

OVERCROWDİNG,

48. Overcrowding defined.

49. Overcrowding prohibited.

Overcrowding in European Reservation or Hill District,

50. (1) Steps to be taken to abate overcrowding. (2) Magistrate may make order for abatement.

101. Construction of walls regulated.

WALLS.

102. External and party walls, thickness of. The required thickness of external and party walls

has been slightly increased on the recommendation of the Director of Public Works. 103. Limitation of length of walls. Walls over 76 feet in height require approval of Building Authority. The alteration in the limit of height of walls from 80 feet to 76 feet has been made partly because the height of such walls is now measured from the level of the adjacent foot-path instead of as formerly from the top of the footings, and partly to accord with the provisions of section 185 sub-section (5) of the same Ordinance. In any case the Building Authority has power to permit walls of a greater height. Thickness of cross walls to be two-thirds that of main walls.

104.

105. Damp proof courses must be provided.

106. Construction of foundations.

107. Party walls to be carried up above roof. ·

108. Openings through party or external walls.

109. Lath and plaster walls prohibited. Such walls are most undesirable owing to the intimate connection between rat-infested premises and plague, and the facilities which such walls give to the breeding of rats within the building.

BONDING FOR THE WALLS OF DOMESTIC BUILDINGS.

110. Bonding of walls provided for. This is a new clause inserted on the recommendation of the

Public Works Committee of the Legislative Council.

BRESSUMMERS AND LINTELS,

11. Bearings of bressummers and lintels.

CONCRETINg of GrouND SURFACES.

112. Prohibition of habitation of domestic buildings until impermeable floors have been provided.

Proviso.

113. Repairs to impermeable material over ground surface.

FLOORS.

114. Level of ground floors to be above level of ground outside.

115. Distance between floor timbers of contiguous buildings.

116. Floors to rest on corbels of brickwork or stonework.

117. Space to be left between floors defined. A space of nine feet only between floors in a tropical country is inadequate and the space has accordingly been increased in this clause.

118. Ventilation under boarded floors in the lowest storey. A space of a few inches only under a wooden floor is inadequate and the requirements of the law in this respect have accordingly been increased to two feet six inches, thus rendering the space accessible and capable of being kept cleansed and free from rats.

119. Regulations governing mezzanine floors.

120. Wooden floors to be made reasonably water-tight,

121. Cement skirtings required. This clause has been inserted so as to provide an additional

protection against rats in the Chinese quarter.

STAIRCASES.

122. Regulations governing tread and rise of stairs.

CEILINGS.

123. Ceilings prohibited outside European reservation. This is intended as a further protection

against rats in the Chinese quarter.

A

128. Roofs to rest upon brickwork or stonework.

WOODWORK.

129. Bond timbers or wood plutes not to be built into walls.

30. Timber or woodwork near five or chimney opening prohibited.

ARCHES.

131. Regulations governing construction of arches.

132. Material for coping, cornices, etc.

PROJECTIONS, ETC.

133. Eaves-gutters and rain water down-pipes to be provided.

134. Projections into public thoroughfares prohibited. Proviso in the case of public buildings.

VERANDAHS, BALCONIES AND AREAS.

135. Encroachments on Crown land prohibited. We are most emphatically of the opinion that all encroachments upon Crown land by means of verandahs, balconies etc., should be absolutely prohibited in future. Such structures very materially lessen the width of the public streets and are thus an important factor in the darkening of the lower floors of dwelling houses. All such structures should be provided by owners on their own land.

RESTRICTION ON PARTITIONS, OBSTRUCTIONS AND ENCLOSURES IN VERANDAHS AND BALCONIES.

136. Verandahs and balconies not to be enclosed. This clause is intended to cover all existing

verandahs and balconies on Crown land or over any street.

KITCHENS, FIREPLACES AND CHIMNEYS.

137. Kitchen accommodation must be provided in domestic buildings.

138. Limitation of extent of kitchens in tenement houses.

139. Construction of chimney of fireplace.

140. Fireplaces adapted for use of charcoal to have hoods.

141. Floors under oven, stove or fireplace to be incombustible.

142. Chimneys not to be fixed near woodwork.

143. Thickness and height of chimney above roof defined. 144. Corbelling and foundations of chimneys regulated:

145. Thickness of back of chimney opening defined.

WINDOWS, CUBICLES AND Rooms.

146. Windows in rooms required.

147. Limitation of depth of luildings. One of the most important causes of the insanitary condi- tion of many of the dwellings in this Colony is the excessive depth of buildings in relation to their width, and this clause is designed to prevent the further erection of domestic buildings of great depth without lateral windows. The enforcement of this clause may occasionally necessitate the resumption of a portion of a building-lot by the Crown, but in view of the insufficient width of many of the publie streets in the Colony, and the lack of open spaces this resumed land can well be utilized to increase the width of the public street or streets abutting on such lot or be reserved as an open space for the improvement of the neighbourhood. The option of resuming any portion of a building-lot in connection with this clause should rest with the Government, as it is conceivable that the land may be laid out in several different ways, and it is only suggested that resumption might ensue when the building-owner can make no use whatever of a portion of his land. ́ 148.` Cubicles without windows prohibited in domestic buildings hereafter erected. Very little improvement in the sanitary condition of the vast majority of the Chinese dwellings in the Colony can be hoped for until this question of cubicles is dealt with in a rational manner, and we consider that it will be no great hardship to require all cubicles in buildings hereafter erected to possess windows into the external air.

149. Requirements as to cubicles in existing buildings.

The number of cubicles, not separately

lit by windows or skylights on any storey has been limited to two, and in lieu of the present sliding scale as to the height of the partitions, the Bill provides for a maximum height of six feet. The size of the cubicles has also been amended to accord with the proposed increase in the area of floor space to be allowed per head by clause 48 of this Bill.

150. Obstruction of windows prohibited.

PRIVIES, WATER CLOSETS ANd Latrines.

151. Construction and dimensions of privies regulated.

152. Ventilation of privies and latrines and rendering of walls with cement.

153. Construction of floors of privies and latrines specified.

154. Privies and latrines not to be connected directly with drain or sewer. 155. Direct connection of water-service with privies, etc., prohibited.

156. Receptacle and seat in privy required.

157. Construction of water closets and urinals without permission prohibited.

158. Privies to be provided in factories and other industrial establishments. 159. Latrines to be provided for tenement houses.

160. Inadequate provision of latrines to be dealt with by Sanitary Commissioner,

PUBLIC LATRINES.

161. Sanction of the Board to be obtained before erection of a public latrine. 162. Application by Board to Government for additional public latrines. 163. Notification of intention to erect a public latrine.

OPEN SPACES, SCAVENGING LANES, ETC.

170. (1.) Open spaces to be provided for existing buildings. (2) Buildings with two main front- ages. (3) Modifications in special cases. (4) Obstructions in such open spaces prohibited.

171. Open space or area to be provided between new building and hill side.

172. Subsoil drainage of such open spaces or areas.

173. Structures in areas prohibited.

174. Open spaces in the rear of new buildings on land not yet sold by the Crown.

175. Open spaces in the rear of new buildings on land already sold by the Crown. The Bill provides that the open spaces in the rear of new buildings shall bear a definite proportion to the roofed over area of the buildings and if the mean of the three scales which now exist (namely section 54 of the Public Health Ordinance of 1901, section 56 of the same Ordinance, and the Schedule of the Praya Reclamation Ordinance No. 16 of 1889, all three of which should be now repealed) be taken, it will be found that the new scale is not much in excess of the existing ones. It will be observed moreover that the erection of one-storey kitchens, bath-rooms and latrines in the open spaces, or yards is permitted, which is an advantage not permitted by the existing sanitary laws.

176. Further provisions in regard to open spaces around buildings on land not yet sold by the

Crown.

177. Further provisions in regard to open spaces around buildings on land already sold by the Crown. It appears to be necessary, especially in connection with buildings abutting on private streets, to provide for the preservation of the open spaces in front of buildings as well as in the rear.

PUBLIC STREETS.

178. Preparation of plan of projected public streets and lanes by the Building Authority. The Ordinance should (definitely lay down that a plan is to be prepared of all pro- jected streets in the districts not yet built upon but which are available for purchase, so that intending purchasers of Crown land may be in a position to design their buildings to the best advantage.

PRIVATE STREETS.

179. New private streets to be approved by the Building Authority.

We would ask that the Bill may be referred to the Attorney General so that its phraseology may be altered, where necessary, to the legal form, and any flaws in its construction rectified, and we believe that if the Government can secure its adoption by the Legislative Council with only such alterations as the Attorney General may deem necessary, the Colony will possess an Ordinance which will gradually secure a great improvement in its general sanitary condition, and will lead to the suppression of those diseases which are dependent upon overcrowding and insanitary conditions for their propagation.

We have the honour to be,

SIR,

Appendix.

Mr. W. Danby to Chairman of Committee re the Housing of the Chinese.

HONGKONG, 10th July, 1894.

Having given much thought and attention for many years past to the practic- ability of introducing a better and more sanitary type of Dwelling House for the Chinese Working Classes of this Colony, I should be glad if you would lay the following suggestions, with accompanying plans, before the Committee, now sitting on the subject of House Accommodation for the Working Classes.

2. Before proceeding further, however, I may state, that I have probably designed and superintended the erection of more Chinese Houses in the Colony, than any other Architect, and am consequently well acquainted with their many defects, and the points on which improvements should be insisted upon, and also the objections likely to arise from property owners, when such improvements are first proposed. At the present time, so long as the plans of proposed Chinese Houses comply with the requirements of the existing Building and Public Health Ordinances, we Architects are powerless to introduce such improvements as we should like, if our clients refuse to adopt our suggestions, which they almost invariably do.

3. In preparing the accompanying design, I have adopted a somewhat different type of building, to what we have at present in the Colony, a departure to which at first sight some objections will probably be raised by some of the Chinese owners of property. I have, however, shewn and explained the general design to many Chinese, who after going into it, have expressed themselves much pleased with it, and are of opinion that it is a type of building which would eventually become popular with the Working and Coolie classes.

4. The plans sent herewith have been more especially designed for the large blocks of vacant ground at Kennedy Town, of which the Hon. C. P. CHATER is Crown Lessee, their respective numbers being Inland Lots Nos. 953-954 and part

-

THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902. 1009

कृत

of Inland Lot No. 906; the Committee will see, however, that the type of building now proposed, can easily be adapted to the new buildings which will have to be crected on the condemned area in Taipingshan, after the Government have resumed the ground, and laid it out on more sanitary and modern lines.

5. My suggestion is to erect blocks of model working class Dwellings, having a large open area in the centre for light and ventilation, with streets and wide passages on the outside, and surrounding the premises on all four sides (vide Drawings). thus securing further light and ventilation.

6. On referring to Drawing No. 2 (which is a detail of Block A on Drawing No. 1) it will be noticed that the General Entrance to the premises is on the side facing the 50-feet Public Street, the Entrance will be 4 feet 6.inches wide opening into an Entrance Lobby (laid in cement concrete) 15 feet long and 14 feet wide, and leading direct into the large Open Area or Yard 39 feet long by 36 feet wide. The caretaker or concierge would reside in this lobby, for which there is ample room, at the front corner of the Blocks, and on the Ground Floor, two shops are shewn, for the sale of Chinese groceries, provisions, &c., &e.

7. At the opposite end of the Yard to the Entrance, a large cook-house (15′× 12′) and latrine accommodation is provided, one latrine for men only (15′ × 12′) and one for women and children (15′ × 8'

The question of latrine accommodation is one to which I attach very great importance, hitherto it has almost invariably been neglected both by the Govern- ment and owners of property. In all Building Regulations both in Great Britain and other places, you will find provision made for the erection of privies, &c., and that by the "Building Owner." According to the existing Hongkong Ordinances, a building owner can, if he so wishes it, erect say 500 houses in one Block, and there is no provision in any of the Ordinances compelling him to provide suitable latrine accommodation for the occupants of the said houses. The present time, with the lessons taught us by the visitation of the Plague, and when it is proposed to re-construct certain portions of the City, is, in my opinion, a favourable -opportunity for introducing new Regulations referring to this matter.

8. As before mentioned, a Special Latrine, with a separate Entrance is pro- vided for women and children. You will probably be informed that women will not go to such places; on enquiry, however, I find that such is not the case, the fact being, as I am creditably informed, that in the Public Latrines now opened in the City (and which latrines are few in number and some long distances apart), no special provision of any kind is made for women and children; they have either to make use of receptacles in their cook-houses or living rooms, or resort to the Latrines used by men.

I respectfully venture to suggest that your Committee should strongly recom- mend the Government to adopt measures for the improvement of this very unsatis- factory state of things.

9. The proposed latrines would have cement concrete floors, and the walls, for a height of 5 feet would be rendered with neat cement. They would have ample light and ventilation from large doors and openings at each end, thus securing a good current of air through each of them and owing to the ample light in them, there would be no difficulty in keeping them clean and free from offensive smells.

The floors of the cook-rooms immediately above them, would be constructed of cement concrete (carried on iron joists) and other materials impervious to moisture.

10. All the cook-houses throughout the building would also be constructed in a manner similar to the latrines, with concrete floors, so that no water could percolate through them, they also would have ample light and ventilation on two

$

1010 THE HONGKONG GOV GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902.

sides, each cooking range would also have a separate flue, which is not usually the case, the smoke from the lower cook-house generally finding its way into and filling the cook-house immediately above it. The new cook-houses, thus having plenty of light and ventilation, and good flues will easily be kept clean and sweet, especially as there will be no dark corners for dirt to accumulate.

11. An iron verandah, 6 feet wide in the clear (or 2 feet wider than the usual iron balconies now permitted in the public streets) is proposed to be erected in the "Open Yard" at the level of each floor, this verandah will give access to all the rooms on each floor.

12. An unusually good, wide and well ventilated, and well lighted general staircase is provided, the steps being of hard wood 4 feet wide (and with iron balusters) enabling the occupants to easily pass each other when ascending or des- 'cending. This staircase communicates with each floor of the building. I wish to draw the special attention of the Committee to this staircase, as one of the features of the proposed new buildings. The ordinary staircase in the usual type of Chinese houses in the Colony (including even good ones) is dark, rickety and very steep, in fact, absolutely dangerous: knowing them as I do, the wonder has been, more accidents have not occurred. I have on several occasions endeavoured to get a clause inserted in the Building Ordinances limiting the height and tread of steps in Chinese Dwellings as is done in the Building Bye-laws of Municipal Towns in England and other places. Ground in this City is valuable, in the future it will become more so, the tendency will be to increase the height of new buildings, which means also the making of the staircases much steeper than they are now, and conse- quently more dangerous, as is now the case in nearly all 4-storied houses. The steps in the suggested new type of house, would be 12 inches wide and 6 inches rise. In some Chinese good houses, the tread is only 5 inches and height 9 inches. It requires practice, and a cool head, to descend a long flight of say 4 stories of such steps, especially when there is only a rope to hang-on too, or an apology for a hand rail. I had occasion some time ago, to show the late Mr. S. BROWN (Surveyor General) such a staircase, and it was only with the greatest difficulty we got him down safely. A recommendation from your Committee on this matter would probably be the means of a clause on the lines now suggested, being introduced into any new or amended Building Ordinance. The minimum tread of steps in any house used for human habitation should be 8 inches and the maximum rise of the step 8 inches.

13. It will be noticed that each habitable room is unusually well lighted and ventilated, most of the rooms on each floor having large doors and windows on three sides, and the others on two sides, none of them having any obstructions of any kind. These would give the respective rooms an extraordinary amount of light and ventilation in every direction, and it is a well known fact, that the more light and ventilation you have (even in Chinese houses) in rooms, especially such as are now referred to (which would be both living and sleeping rooms), the cleaner and sweeter they would be kept by the occupants, in addition to which, they would be more conclusive to the improved health and general tone of the people living there- in. Each room opens direct on to the 6-feet verandah, which would be for all practical purposes, an extension of the respective rooms abutting on to it.

It is also proposed to have iron balconies, 4 feet wide, on the first and second floors of such blocks as have a frontage to the 50 feet wide public streets.

14. If it would be thought desirable (of which I have no doubt in my own opinion) I have provided for Ablution Rooms on the first and second floors, as it cannot but be thought objectionable, that men, women, and children should have no alternative but to perform these necessary duties, either in the cook-house (which is required and used for other purposes) or in the presence of their fellow lodgers.

THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902. 1011

 If we wish to encourage and promote clean habits and a more sanitary mode of living among the working and coolie class of Chinese residents in the Colony, let before condemning them for their dirty habits, give them the means of becom- ing clean and improving their objectionable mode of living, &c., &c.

us,

15. The floors of all the ground floor rooms, would be of concrete, and the walls (external and internal) rendered for a height of 18 inches in neat cement.

16. The only underground drain in the Block, would be the one leading from the large gully, in the centre of the open yard. It would be laid in a straight line to the 20-feet private street, passing under the floor of the latrine, it would be of 6 inches diameter glazed earthenware socket pipes, pointed in cement, and bedded in concrete, having man-holes at each end for inspection and cleaning purposes.

17. Water would be laid into each cook-house and ablution-room, and a small stand-pipe, in the open yard for general purposes, which stand-pipe would also be used by the tenants generally (having a large enclosed open yard) for washing their clothes, &c., which would be done in the usual Chinese manner, a little soap and small wooden tub. If no provision of this kind is made, they have no alter- native but to resort to the side-walks of the public streets as is now the case.

18. The living rooms vary somewhat in size, they are so designed, however, that they could be easily let out to friends, clansmen, or married families, who may wish to live together.

19. Such a Block, as the one referred to on Drawing No. 2, Block 4 on Inland Lot No. 954, would accommodate 371 adults, allowing each adult 300 cubic feet and 21 superficial feet. The estimated cost of such a building (exclusive of the cost of the ground) is about $8,500.00 or, say, at the rate of $28.50 per adult.

20. Twenty-seven (27) Blocks of houses as described, can be erected on the three plots of ground referred to, viz.:-

or at the rate of 2,136 adults per acre. The net actual building area of the three plots of ground is 419 acres.

21. I should like here to caution the Committee against being lead away by misstatements as to what is overcrowding. A letter by a well known Medical Gentleman (Dr. CANTLIE) appeared in the local papers a few days ago, in which he said: "In Britain 1,000 persons to an acre is the sanitary limit,* any number over that constitutes surface overcrowding as distinct from overcrowding," this statement is very vague and likely to do harm, and, in my opinion, no importance whatsoever should be attached to it, unless the writer of the letter gives us his au- thority for the statement, and how his figures were arrived at. Was the acre area mentioned the net actual area covered by buildings, or did it include streets, gar- dens, yards, parks, commons, &c., extending over many acres? The before men- tioned number of people that can be accommodated in the suggested new buildings, and allowing each individual 300 cubic feet, and also in a 3 storied building only, is at the rate of 2,136 adults per acre, and I am sure that the learned Doctor him- self would, or could not, by any possible means call it "overcrowding."

* Query.-W.J.S.

1012 THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902.

22. Some building owners and others may possibly think that the type of house, sketched out herein, is too good, and too expensive for the poorer classes of Chinese; if they go thoroughly into the question, however, I feel sure that they cannot but think $23.50 per adult is a very reasonable, if not cheap rate, for such a class of house as now proposed, and it will bear favourable comparison with the cost of the ordinary low, ill ventilated, ill lighted, dark and dirty type of existing Chinese houses, especially when consideration is given to the superior accommoda- tion provided in the new houses, in the matter of open yard, light, air, latrines, ablution rooms, good cook houses, verandahs and a good, safe, and well lighted general staircase. The occupants can secure more privacy, the sexes and married people can easily be kept separate, and in a much better manner than in the exist- ing houses. The concierge, living as he would be, in the Entrance Lobby would have a greater control over the inmates in every respect, he would be able to pre- vent tenants leaving without paying their rent, or removing their belongings un- known to the landlord. He would be able to supervise the general cleanliness and sanitary condition of the premises, and be in fact, the residential agent of the

owner.

23. It is generally understood that new, or amended Building Regulations are about to be introduced. This is an unusually favourable opportunity for the Gov- ernment to take a new departure in the matter of the erection of healthy houses for the poorer classes of Chinese, it would be a measure in which the Govern- ment would have the support of the whole of the community. I have, therefore, ventured to address your Committee on the subject, being one in which I have always taken a great interest, and the importance of which has been forced on the attention of the Government and community lately in a very strong and emphatic

manner.

24. With a view, therefore, of furthering this project, I would very respect- fully suggest that the Government be asked to erect one or more Blocks of houses such as are referred to herein, as an experiment. I feel sure, however, from my experience on the subject, that with proper management they will always be sought after and that the Government (or owner) will always command good tenants, and will eventually be able to dispose of the property at a reasonable profit.

25. This locality (viz., the west end of the City) is a far more popular district with the Chinese, than the east end, viz., Causeway Bay: they will not go so far east, especially when the bulk of the Chinese hongs and shipping offices are in the central and western portions of the City; this City is like most of the large towns and cities of Europe and America, which have almost invariably extended (and are still extending) westwards (this applies both to ancient and modern cities) the reasons for which, although so universal, has never, in all cases, been satisfac- torily explained.

26. I have not gone into the question of the cost of the ground, comprising Inland Lots Nos. 953, 954 and 906, as I understand information on this subject. has already been laid before you.

Yours truly,

The words "infectious disease" mean and include Bubonic Plague, Cholera, Small-pox, Diphtheria, Scarlet Fever, Typhus Fever, Enteric Fever, Relapsing Fever, Puerperal Fever, Measles and Whooping Cough and such other diseases as may from time to time be defined by the Board by resolution for the purpose.

2. When any person suffering from any infectious disease has been removed from any premises or has recovered or has died the medical officer of health shall take such steps as he may deem necessary for the disinfection and purification of the said premises.

3. Any building or part of a building in which any person attack- ed by bubonic plague, cholera, small-pox, or such other epidemic, endemic or contagious disease as may be, from time to time, notified in the Gazette, or in which the body of any person who has died of any such disease shall have been, or shall be found, shall forthwith, after the removal therefrom of the diseased person or of the dead body, be thoroughly cleansed and disinfected, to the satisfaction of the medical officer of health; and-if in the opinion of the medical officer of health or of any legally qualified and registered medical practitioner it is necessary, in the interests of the public health-the persons residing in such building or part of a building shall be detained therein or shall be removed, to such buildings or vessels as the Board may direct and there isolated and kept under observation until such time as they may, in the opinion of the said medical officer of health or other medical officer in charge of such buildings or vessels, be safely released; and it shall not be lawful for any person to re-occupy any such building or part of a building until it has been thoroughly cleansed and disinfected as aforesaid.

4. If any article of clothing or bedding or any other article which has been in contact with any person or any dead body in any way affected by any such disease can, in the opinion of the medical officer of health or of a sanitary inspector be preserved with- out danger to the public health and can be effectively disinfected, then any such article shall be removed from any premises in which it shall be found by coolies hired by any person acting under the instructions of the Board, or of one of its duly authorized officers, with such precautions and in such manner as the [Sanitary Com- missioner] shall from time to time direct, and shall be effectively disinfected and then returned to the owner or owners thereof. No person, save as aforesaid, shall handle any such article until it has been disinfected.

5. If, however, in the opinion, duly certified in writing, of a sanitary inspector or of any other duly authorized officer of the Board, or of a legally qualified and registered medical practitioner, any bedding, clothing, or other article which has been in contact with any person or any dead body in any way affected by any such disease, or which shall have been found upon any premises recently occupied by such person or body cannot be effectively disinfected or ought, in the interests of the public health, to be destroyed then it shall, if [the Sanitary Commissioner or] the medical officer of health or other officer of the Board duly authorized to act on his behalf, concurs, be destroyed in such manner and in such place and with such precautions as the [Sanitary Commissioner] may from time to time direct.

DRAINAGE.

Preliminary Explanatory Notes to Bye-Laws.

A. The following notes convey, in general terms, the principles that should guide the design and construction of house-drains. Before proceeding to lay down in detail the instructions which should be attended to, in order to apply the same satisfactorily, it must be observed that no code of instructions can possibly embrace every case that will occur. It must be remembered that no system of house-drainage that has yet been devised, or probably will ever be The real re- devised, does away with the necessity for care in use. medy for the inconveniences which are too often experienced from house-drains lies, not in any elaboration of appliances, but in careful construction, careful use, and a reasonably liberal water supply. Without the co-operation of the public, the Sanitary Authority is almost powerless to effect improvement. It is therefore to be hoped that the public will assist, by insisting on good construction and the proper use of house-drains.

B. The object of a house-drain is to carry off, from the dwelling to the street-sewer, water fouled by use, together with all the solid or semi-solid refuse which is usually associated therewith, such as refuse from cooking and the like; in short, the foul liquid usually known as sewage or sullage-water.

C. The house-drain must be "self-cleansing." The sewage as produced in the daily life of the inmates must flow through the drain with a current sufficiently rapid to sweep along with it all suspend- ed matter, so that no permanent deposit can take place. A drain in which deposit takes place is a cesspool in disguise, from which offensive emanations find their way into the dwelling; and from which putrid sewage flows into the street-sewers, making them ex- ceedingly offensive. A badly constructed or badly kept house-drain is, therefore, not only a source of danger to the inmates of the house that it drains, but a public nuisance also. Unless house-drains are well made and properly used, no system of street-sewers, however perfect, can work in a satisfactory manner.

D. Water being the agent which cleanses the house-drains, its liberal use by the inmates of the dwelling is essential to the proper maintenance of house-drains. The sewage must be well diluted. Nevertheless the quantity of water necessary for the proper cleansing of house-drains is not excessive. The water normally used by the inmates of a dwelling for washing and cooking is sufficient for this purpose, provided that it is readily obtainable at all times, either in the dwelling or in close proximity thereto.

E. The principal point to be attended to, in the design of house- drains, is so to arrange matters that the sewage, as produced, shall flow through them in the most rapid current practicable; so that all suspended matter shall be swept away at once and completely.

F. The speed of a stream flowing through a pipe or channel, of given size and shape, depends upon the following conditions : (a) The inclination of the channel. (b) The smoothness of its surface. (c) The volume of the stream.

The steeper the slope and the smoother the sides of the channel, the swifter will be the current. The greater the volume of the stream, inclination being the same, the greater the speed.

1074 THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902.

Thus if a 12" and a 3" pipe have the same inclination the velocity in the 12′′ pipe would be about twice as great as in the 3" pipe, pro- vided that both were half full. But to fill the two pipes to this extent, the quantity of water passing through the 12" pipe would be about thirty-two times that passing through the 3" pipe. But if the same quantity flowed through both pipes, then the current in the 3" pipe, being more concentrated, would flow more rapidly than that in the partially filled 12" pipe.

G. These considerations would lead to the conclusion that the best size, to be used for any house-drain, would be that which would just suffice to carry off the sewage with the pipe not less than half full. Within certain limitations, this is the case.

H. In the case of street-sewers draining large districts, from which the flow of sewage is comparatively regular and capable of estimation, the proper size of sewer may be calculated with some approach to precision. In the case of house-drains, however, such precision is impracticable. The rate of flow is irregular and the quantity of sewage depends upon the habits of the inmates. Were the size of a house-drain calculated to carry off even a most liberal water supply, which is. for practical purposes, the measure of the sewage, it would be found, in the vast majority of cases, to be much Jess than that which experience has shewn to be applicable in practice. It has been found that a house-drain less than a certain size is inconveniently liable to stoppages, caused by extraneous matters, such as rags, paper and the like, which occasionally find their way into the best managed house-drains.

1. The minimum size of house-drain is usually fixed at from four to six inches in diameter. A four-inch drain, constructed in the usual manner, is probably somewhat small as a minimum ; and a six-inch somewhat large. A diameter of five inches, were this size readily obtainable, would be a better minimum.

J. Whenever the minimum size will suffice it should be used. Indeed, subject to the limit laid down in the preceding paragraph. and to certain conditions to be set forth later on, the smaller the house-drain the better. The use of unnecessarily large house-drains amounts to an abandonment of the self-cleansing principle. If a drain is so large that the normal flow of sewage cannot fill it to a sufficient depth to establish a self-cleansing velocity, deposit tekes place and goes on, either till the pipe is choked and the sewage escapes, through leaks, to the sub-soil, or until the deposit has accumulated sufficiently to reduce the area of the sewage-way to that which will establish a current sufficiently rapid to prevent further deposit.

K. In order that the size of house-drains may be reduced to the minimum practicable, in each instance, rain-water should be ex- cluded from them as far as possible. Rain-water cannot, however, be wholly excluded from house-drains. Many uncovered surfaces, such as back-yards, receive slops and foul-water in the course of daily use and this must be carried off by the house-drains. A dupli- cate set of drains for such areas, one for sewage and the other for rain-water, would be a costly complication and there would be no security that each set would be used for its proper purpose only. Some sewage would almost inevitably find its way into the rain- water drain, which, being of large size, would be imperfectly flushed and therefore offensive.

L. Rain-water should be diverted from house-drains to the full extent that is possible by the use of surface-channels. As a general. rule, when surface-channels cannot be used to divert rain-water, it must be admitted to the house-drain. Hence, in the majority of cases, the amount of rain-water to be carried off determines the size of the house-drain. In providing for the removal of rain-fall, from a given surface, it is to be remembered that it is not sufficient to provide a pipe of ample size to carry off the rain-fall. Traps and gratings must be provided in sufficient numbers and of sizes to admit the rain-water freely to the drain and the surface must have a fall to carry it to the openings. In many cases neglect of these precautions has caused flooding. This has been put down to the size of the pipes, whereas the inlets were really at fault.

Rain-water cannot be lookod upon as a legitimate agent for cleansing house-drains from deposit. Firstly, there should be no deposit to remove from well constructed and properly managed drains; and secondly, because there are long intervals in which no rain falls so that this flushing agent fails when most wanted.

M. The irregularity and uncertain of the flow of sewage, which precludes an accurate determination of size, makes it impracticable to calculate definitely the proper inclination of house-drains. Ex- perience shews that, under the normal conditions of use, an inclina- tion of one in thirty is desirable to ensure a self-cleansing "drain; especially when the drain conveys the sewege from a single trap or inlet. An inclination of one in thirty, therefore, should, as a rule, be given to house-drains. Drains laid at much flatter gradients can be made to work perfectly, with care, and provided that the flow of sewage is copious, i.e., sufficient to fill the pipe nearly half full. The designer of house-drains, having no control over their subsequent usage, will do well to give them, in every case, the greatest practic- able fall.

N. The ordinary "trap" or syphon is not a perfect preventive against the escape of sewage-tainted air from house-drains, although it is the only appliance available for the purpose. The water which seals the trap may evaporate during disuse, or a piece of fibrous matter may act like a syphon and draw off the water sufficiently to leave a free passage for the escape of sewage-tainted air. Again, if there be a series of inlets connected to a drain which is unprovided with any free outlets, a sudden rush of water through one trap will force the air contained in the drain through the other traps or unseal them by drawing off their contents, and open a passage for the escape of sewage-tainted air into the dwelling, or into some confined space in its neighbourhood. Consequently, house-drains must be "venti- lated," or rather provided with vents, to prevent the accumulation of sewage-tained air therein, and to secure the efficiency of the traps. To effect this thoroughly, the drain must have, at or near its extre-

.

THE HONGKONG GOY GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902. 1075

mities, openings giving a free escape to the air within it, and between these openings, there should be no trap or other obstruction to the free passage of air.

0. These ventilating openings should be so placed that any sewage- tainted air which may escape from them shall be as little offensive as possible With this object the inner ventilating opening should be placed above the roof of the dwelling. This is usually done by carry- a pipe, having a free opening at the top, above the roof and at a dis- ing up tance from any window. The second opening is usually made on the house-side of the trap which severs the direct communication between the drain and the public sewer. If, however, there be no trap between the house-drain and the sewer then there is no

necessity for as econd opening, the sewer itself serving the purpose. With a well constructed system of self-cleansing street-sewers this arrangement may be adopted with safety, even with advantage. Then every house-drain ventilator scrv s as a sewer ventilator also; and when this is done universally, no accumulation of sewer-tainted air can take place in any part of the system.

201

P. Care must be taken in selecting the position of the lower ven- tilating opening because the elevated ventilating pipe by no means secures a permanent upward current of air. According to the relative temperature of the air within and without the drain, to the direction and force of the wind, so an upward or downward current will obtain. Q. Complete ventilation is especially important when any part of the house-drain system is in communication with the interior of the dwelling; or where the system is extensive and has numerous inlets. It is essential where water-closets are used, or where the drains receive excrementitious matter. In the case of a short length of drain, leading from a single inlet, placed in an open space, such as a back-yard, though desirable, it is less necessary and may be omitted without serious danger.

R. Any direct communication between the interior of the house and the house-drain should be avoided. Pipes carrying water from baths or sinks, within the dwelling, should therefore deliver their effluent above trapped gulleys in the open air. The effluent from baths or sinks, on upper storeys should, whenever practicable, be received by open-topped pipes, delivering freely above trapped gulleys at or a little below the ground-level. If, s in the case of water-closets, a direct communication has to be made between a fitting inside the house and the drain, then there must be complete ventilation by means of a pipe carried up outside and to the top of the building.

Drainage Bye-laws.

1. Any owner or occupier of private premises about to construct, reconstruct, alter or amend any drain shall give at least seven days' previous written notice of such intention to the Board, and such notice shall be delivered at the office of the Board, in a form of which printed blank copies may be obtained gratis in English and Chinese on application at the office of the Board, or, in the case of the villages, at any village Police Station between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

2. Every such notice shall specify the name of the street, the num- ber of the lot and the number of the house, if any, which it is intend- ed to drain, and shall be accompanied by a plan in duplicate of the premises drawn on a scale of not less than twenty feet to the inch, and such plan must show the whole of the drains with their pro- posed sizes figured thereon, and a section or sections showing the proposed falls or inclination and drawn to the same scale and to a vertical scale of not less than ten feet to the inch. The plan must also show the position and course of all proposed surface gutters.

Except that in case of suburban lots which cannot be conveniently included within a plan of ordinary dimensions, when the lot and the out-fall drain may be shown on a scale of not less than one hundred feet to the inch.

3. Within seven days after receipt of the notice, the sanitary surveyor shall, by means of a written communication, in English or Chinese as may be necessary, inform the person who has given the said notice whether his designs and proposed mode of construction are approved or disapproved, and in case of disapproval such modi- fications or improvements as may be requisite in order to comply with the provisions of The Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, and of any bye-laws made thereunder shall be indicated in detail to such person by the sanitary surveyor, and it shall not be lawful for such person to commence the drainage works until the approval thereto of the sanitary surveyor shall have been previously obtained by him, and in the case of such approval one copy of the deposited plan shall be returned to him, and the remaining copy shall remain filed in the office of the sanitary surveyor.

NOTE. The approval of plans conveyed by the sanitary surveyor under this bye- law certifies simply to the fact that the plans are in accordance with the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance and with the bye-laws made thereunder, but signifies no approval of the sufficiency or otherwise of the plan and throws no responsibility on the Board.

4. Any person carrying out excavations for drainage works on any premises contiguous to a public thoroughfare, whereby the safety of the public may be jeopardized, shall light such excavations by means of a lantern or lanterns kept lighted through the night, and he shall further provide watchmen, erect hoardings and otherwise take such precautions as may be necessary for securing the safety of the public and the protection of adjoining properties.

5. House-drains shall be made of impervious materials with smooth internal surfaces, such as well glazed earthen-ware pipes or cast-iron pipes protected against rust or corrosion by suitable asphal- tic coating. The drains shall be so constructed as to be water and air-tight. In jointing pipes with cement, tarred-hemp shall be caulk- ed into the joint before the cement is applied, and care shall be taken that no cement or other jointing material projects from the joints into the interior of the pipes; and any such projecting material or other irregularities in the bore of the drain shall be carefully removed. 6. House-drains shall be firmly bedded in selected material free from large stones and well rammed into place.

1076 THE HONGKONG GOVTM GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1902.

7. All stoneware pipes shall be well glazed and free from cracks and flaws and shall have a thickness of not less than one-twelfth of their diameter.

8. Disconnecting chambers shall be red brick manholes fitted with stoneware traps and ventilating grates of iron or stone.

9. .Lime mortar used for the building of manholes shall be com- posed of three parts of sand or red earth and one part of good lime.

10. Lime concrete used for encasing drains shall be composed of four parts of good sound clean stone, broken to half inch cubes, two parts of red or yellow earth and one part of lime thoroughly well mixed and well rammed into place.

11. Cement mortar used for the jointing of pipes or any other work shall be mixed in the proportions of three parts of clean sharp sand and one part of good Portland cement and used fresh.

12. No main house-drain shall be less than six inches in clear internal diameter.

13. Subject to the limitation mentioned in the preceding bye-law, no main house-drain shall be larger than is necessary in the opinion of the [sanitary surveyor] to carry off the sewage of the dwelling, or the sewage with the rain-water, which, under conditions herein- after specified in Nos. 37, 38, 39 and 40 of these bye-laws shall be admitted to the house-drain.

14. Every house-drain shall have the maximum fall, throughout its length, that the relative levels of the public sewer and of the most remote inlet, will admit o: f

Provided always--

(a) That the maximum available fall does not exceed one in thirty (or 4 inches in 10 feet). If it does, then the part of the drain, more remote from the public sewer, may be laid with a fall of one in thirty; and the remainder, with such 'greater fall as may be necessary to connect with the pub- lic sewer.

(b) That the excavation, necessary to obtain the maximum avail- able fall, is not of such a nature as to endanger the sta- bility of the adjoining or neighbouring property.

In these and similar cases the gradient may be reduced subject to the approval of the [sanitary surveyor.]

15. Whenever a reduction of fall (below the standard grade i in 30) is necessary or permissible, it shall, wherever practicable, be made in the portion of the drain nearest to the outlet, rather than in the part nearest to the inlet, and in the main trunk of the drain rather than in the branches.

NOTE.-The available fall in a house-drain, 100 feet long, is 2 feet 6 inches or one in forty. It will be better to make the first thirty feet from the inlet, with a fall of 1 foot, or 1 in 30; and the remaining length of 70 feet with a fall of 1 in 46.66, than give an uniform fall throughout.

It is clear that an obstruction at A would be more easily removed than one at B, in the pipe of uniformi gradient, because it would have a greater head of water behind it; and in flowing from the inlet to it, the stream will have attained a certain momentum, tending to carry it on, through the flatter part of the pipe. e.g. (2)

If the main-drain 1B were given an uniform fall of 1 in 30, then would be 1 foot below B and D. and DC would have a fail of 1 in 40 only. The proper course to pursue would be to give DC a fall of one in thirty, or 14" in all. AC would then have a fall of 1'4" in 30, or 1 in 223, and CB a fall of 18" in 60 feet; or one in thirty-six.

16. Whenever the gradient of any portion of a drain is less than one in thirty, the [Sanitary Commissioner] may in his discretion re- quire an automatic flush tank or any other suitable contrivance for attaining an effective flush to be used.

17. All changes of direction in house-drains shall be made by means of properly curved pipes or by half channels in manholes and between the points at which any change of direction occurs, all house- drains shall be laid in straight lines and regular grades from point to point.

NOTE (Inasmuch as changes of direction are the points at which obstructions most frequently occur, and for the purpose of removing obstructions generally, house holders will do well to provide, at each change of direction, a manhole, giving access to the drain. For this purpose the manhole should be made 3 feet by 1 foot 6 inches to the surface or to a depth of five feet above the drain. Beyond this depth the manhole may be narrowed to 1 foot 6 inches by 1 foot 6 inches. But such manhole should not be found in cook-houses or in places where they may be opened and used as receptacles for the disposal of solid rubbish.)

18. No drain shall be so constructed as to pass under any build- ing except when any other mode of construction is impracticable. Any drain passing under a building shall be of iron and of a quality to be approved by the sanitary surveyor, and the joints shall be pro- perly caulked and run with lead, and (unless the written permission of the [Sanitary Commissioner] has first been obtained to lay it otherwise) shall be laid in one straight line for the whole distance beneath such building, and shall be imbedded and incased throughout its entire length in four inches of good concrete.

Whenever a drain traverses soft or yielding ground, or where water may make its appearance in the trench, the drain shall be surrounded throughout its entire length with four inches of good concrete.

The stones composing the matrix of the concrete in both cases shall be of a size to pass through a half-inch ring.

19. No drain shall be constructed in such manner as to allow any inlet to such drain to be placed inside any building.

20. The aggregate area of the openings in any grating fixed on inlets to waste-pipes from baths or sinks shall not be less than four square inches and the waste-pipe shall not have a less internal dia- meter than 1 inches.

NOTE--The object of this is to secure an efficient flush.

21. Traps or gulleys for the removal of rain-water shall be pro- vided with gratings having the nett area of the openings not less than twice the area of the trap or pipe. Such gratings shall be sunk to a depth of at least one inch below the surrounding pavement, with a slope round them equal to half the width of the grating.

NOTE--It is not sufficient to provide pipes of ample diameter; there must be open" ings of sufficient size to admit the rain to them.

22. Traps at the inlets to drains shall be placed so that the water- level in them is not less than one foot below the ground, and such traps shall be placed as low down as the level of the house-drain or branch will permit of; provided that the depth be not more than two feet.

23. Traps shall have not less than two inches of water seal and shall be securely fixed to the drain. All stoneware traps shall be surrounded with a thickness of four inches of lime concrete.

24 No person shall construct or fix in connection with any drain or waste-pipe the form of trap of the kind known as the Bell- trap or any trap of the kind known as the ▷ trap, and all- traps con- nected with any private drains shall be properly set in cement mortar to the satisfaction of the [sanitary surveyor..]

NOTE. Bell-traps and ▷ traps from their form give rise to deposit of filth difficult to remove by flushing.

25. Every main house-drain shall be ventilated at its upper end by [carrying up an iron ventilating pipe of a diameter of not less than four inches to a height of not less than three feet above the eaves of the building, and clear of all windows, skylights or other openings. The joints of all such pipes shall be properly caulked and run with lead.]

26. Every main house-drain shall have a ventilating opening near to its lower end, and no trap or other obstruction to the free circula- tion of air shall exist between this opening and the one described in the preceding bye-law.

If there be a trap between the 'house-drain and the public sewer, then an opening shall be made on the house-side of the trap, and the said opening shall be so arranged as to give access to the trap for inspection, cleansing or repair.

If there be no trap between the public sewer and the house-drain no special opening need be provided at the lower end.

27. Drains leading from a single trap and not being more than sixty feet long, need not be provided with a ventilating pipe at their upper end [unless such drains are laid, partly or wholly, under a building;] but, if this be omitted, they shall be provided with a trap, disconnecting them from the public sewer, and shall have a ventilating opening at the lower end on the house-side of the trap.

28. Rain-water pipes and waste-pipes from baths, sinks and other similar appliances on the upper floors of buildings shall be of cast iron socketted pipes jointed with cement, or wrought iron pipes, with screwed joints, coated with bituminous composition, or galvanised, or of well glazed stoneware socketted pipes, or other approved ma- terials, securely fixed outside the wall, [by means of wrought iron bands fitted round the pipe, or in the case of iron pipes by means of ears, made fast with wrought iron pipes not less than four inches long,] and provided, at each point of connection, with a suitable head, and at their lower extremity with a bend, shoe or pedestal pipe [and every opening in the wall of a building for the discharge of sullage water shall be provided with a fixed grating to the satisfaction of the sanitary surveyor.]

Provided that in the case of rain-water pipes and waste-pipes abut- ting on any street, cast or wrought iron pipes only shall be used, properly jointed as above described, (unless permission has been granted by the Board to use pipes of other material), and wherever practicable rain-water pipes shall be carried under the foot-path and discharge into the side channel. All joints of stoneware pipes shall be made in the manner provided by No. 5 of these bye-laws.

NOTE.-Zinc, tin-plate, rivetted or lap-jointed sheet-iron will not be approvce.

1078 THE HONGKONG GOVT GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY, 10TH JUNE, 1992.

29. Waste-pipes, as well as down-pipes from roofs, shall not be connected direct with any drain but shall discharge in the open air near to or over a trap and they shall be brought down to within one foot or less from the ground.

30. No rain water-pipe from the roof of a building shall be used as a ventilating shaft to any drain which communicates or is designed to communicate with a public sewer.

NOTE. Rain-water pipes terminate at the eaves of the house a point not high enough above windows to be a safe ventilating outlet.

31. Any person who may have laid any drain or constructed drainage works connected therewith shall not cover up such drain or works until the same shall have been previously inspected and passed by the [sanitary surveyor] and such person shall give three clear days' written notice to the Board that such drain or works are ready for inspection, and such notice shall be delivered at the office of the Board in a form of which printed blank copies may be obtained gratis in English and Chinese on application at the office of the Board, or, in the case of villages, at any village Police Station between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

32. Before any drain is covered in, it shall be inspected and tested to ascertain whether it is water and air-tight; and no drain that fails in this respect shall be passed. After inspection, the earth shall be carefully filled in, above and around the drain, and thoroughly ram- med and consolidated. For a depth of at least six inches, above the summit of the sockets of the pipe, selected material, free from stones larger than will pass through a 2-inch ring, shall be used in filling in the trench.

33. The floors of cook-houses, stables, cow-sheds and the like, where practicable, shall be elevated above the ground outside the dwelling, and be provided with surface channels, passing out through the wall, and delivering above a trapped-gulley, outside.

When new drains are being laid and where the floor is at the level of the ground outside, the surface-channel of the cook-house shall be connected to a trap, outside the house, by a straight open pipe, terminating above the water-level of the trap, which shall be accessible and in free com- munication with the air. Every such opening in the wall shall be provided with a fixed grating, at its upper end, to the satisfaction of the sanitary surveyor.]

34. All surfaces of back-yards and paved areas of premises wher- ever practicable shall have a fall, from the walls of the building towards the trap or inlet of the drain, at the rate of not less than half an inch to one foot, and such inlet shall be placed as far from the walls as practicable.

35. Open surfaces such as back-yards, court-yards or other spaces, on which slops are thrown, or from which foul waters flow, shall be provided with trapped connections to the house-drains, for the re- moval of such waters as well as some of the rain-water. But such surfaces shall be properly paved, in the manner prescribed for back- yards and cook-houses, so that no sand or silt may be washed into the drains from them.

36. Wherever an outlet is available, surface channels shall be provided to carry excessive rain-fall from premises, and these chan- nels shall be properly connected with the storm-water channel in the street. Traps not less than 4 inches in diameter in connection with the house-drain shall be placed in this surface channel,' which will carry off slops or sewage, as well as some rain-fall.

37. Rain-water shall be diverted from house-drains by means of surface channels or otherwise to the fullest extent practicable.

38. The rain-water from roofs, which slope towards enclosed court-yards, or back-yards, may, if diversion to the surface channel is impracticable, be received into the house-drain. But no ventila- ting pipe shall be used for the conveyance of rain-water from the roof. 39. No person shall, where it can possibly be avoided, lay any pipe for conveying sub-soif drainage in such manner or in such posi- tion as to communicate direct with any sewer, cess-pool or drain used for the conveyance or reception of sewage.

NOTE. It is important to exclude sewage-tainted air from the sub-soil. The con nection of sub-soil drains to sewers even if a trap is used is objectionable, because in dry weather the flow of the drain may cease and the water or the trap may dry up and leave a free communication between the sewer and the sub-soil drain. The object of sub-soil drainage is not only the removal of water, but the aeration of the sub-soi!. The mouths of such drains therefore should be so placed that pure air can enter freely--a condition incompatible with direct connection with sewers or house- drains.

40. In every case where the course of a drain shall be diverted, any cesspool previously existing and into which such drain may have previously emptied, shall be cleansed, deodorized and filled with clean earth.

41. All drains, or drainage works, shall be built and carried out in all respects in accordance with the provisions of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, and of these bye-laws and of any that may be made hereafter, and if no written notice as provided by No. 1 of these bye-laws shall have been given to the Board by any [owner or occupier] about to construct, reconstruct, alter or amend any drain on his premises, and if by such default the [sanitary surveyor] shall have had no opportunity of inspecting and approving or disap- proving of any such drain actually built and already covered in, it shall be lawful for the [Sanitary Commissioner] on discovering the existence of such drain or drainage works to call upon the owner to open and uncover the same for the purpose of inspection, and should such drain or works prove upon inspection to be defective either in respect of design, workmanship or materials they shall be deemed a nuisance and dealt with as such. [Any owner or occupier who con- structs, reconstructs, alters or amends any drain without such written notice as aforesaid, shall be deemed to have contravened these bye-laws.]

42. All works connected with the construction of drains and drain-connections shall be carried out in strict accordance with the plans and sections previously submitted to and approved by the sanitary surveyor or with such amendments to such plans and sec- tions as may have been required by him, and such works shall be carried out in a proper and workmanlike manner with the best

43. Whenever any private house drain is about to be constructed or re-constructed the [Sanitary Commissioner] shall have power to require the provision of a surface channel of approved materials and design, in lieu of a covered drain, in any position in which a covered drain may appear to be undesirable.

Waste pipes from buildings and surface channels from cook-houses, stables, cow-sheds, and the like shall discharge into such surface channel without the intervention of a trap; but any communication between such surface channel and a covered drain shall be by means of a trap.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 20th June, 1902.

1125

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

EDUCATION Department,

HONGKONG, 6th April, 1902.

    SIR, I have the honour to forward to you my Report upon the Education Department during the year 1901.

STAFF.

    I was appointed Inspector of Schools from 26th April, 1901, and took over control of the Depart- ment from Mr. BREWIN on 1st May.

Messrs. CURWEN and BULLIN were appointed on 30th August, 1900, and on 24th December, 1900, respectively, to the Belilios Reformatory, their appointments dating from 4th January and 2nd March, 1901.

    Mr. and Mrs. JAMES were engaged as Headmaster and Headmistress of the Kowloon British School within the year under review, but had not arrived in the Colony before its termination.

    Miss BATEMAN was appointed as Second Assistant Mistress in the Belilios Girls' School from 1st September, 1901.

FINANCE.

    The sole source of Revenue of the Department consists in the fees charged at the Belilios Girls' School. Those fees were raised in the month of September from 50 cents a month to $1.50 a month, with certain reductions where two or more children of the same family are at school together.

The increase

    The total Expenditure for the Department was $48,195 as against $40,532 in 1900. is mainly due to the cost of the Belilios Reformatory, on experiment, which has failed and has been abandoned and to an increase in the staff and salaries of the Belilios Public School.

GENERAL.

    Since arriving in the Colony I have written a report on the System of Education in the Colony for the Board of Education at Home, and I have acted as Honorary Secretary to the Education Com- mittee, of which body I was also a member. My views have thus been put before the Government at considerable length and there is little to add.

GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS.

English School. The Belilios Public School for girls is the only Government English School. The staff was strengthened, as already stated, during the year, and is now fully equal to the work before it. The very satisfactory education given reflects credit on all concerned. I have however thought it desirable to request that certain changes should take place in the course studied by the highest class, in the hope of making it more useful in itself and less intended for purposes of examin- ation: the result of the change will appear in the next year's Report.

ANGLO-CHINESE DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

    Three of these Schools at Saiyingpun, Wantsai and Yaumati-are in as nearly a satisfactory state as can be expected so long as English subjects are taught exclusively by Chinese. The Report of the Education Committee recommends a complete reorganization of these Schools. The fourth School at Wongnaichung is less satisfactory.

VERNACULAR DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

    These are seven in number of various degrees of efficiency. I was compelled to recommend that the School at Aplichau should be closed, and that the services of the Master at Wantsai should be dispensed with. Shek-o, Tanglungchau and Pokfulam are small Schools which do not seem to be par ticularly needed. There is no doubt that this class of Schools is in want of radical amendment.

GRANT-IN-AID SCHOOLS.

    These Schools, and education in general, are so thoroughly discussed in the Report of the Committee on Education that it is useless to deal with the matter further. I propose to give in my next annual Report a full description of the more important grant-earning Schools under the different Missionary

Bodies.

I enclose usual Tables (I to VIII).

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient Servant,

Honourable J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, C.M.G.,

Golonial Secretary.

EDWARD A. IRVING, Inspector of Schools.

Will the Honourable the Colonial Secretary endeavour to obtain from the Indian Government a statement or return showing (1) the conditions on which house properties, sanitary and insanitary, and land have recently been resumed in Bombay and elsewhere in India; (2) the basis on which the values of house property and land were arrived at; and (3) the basis on which the compensation paid for resumed properties and land has been arrived at and in due course communicate the information to the Council if the Honourable Member is not now in a position to furnish the required particulars?

The Colonial Secretary replied.

The Colonial Secretary replied.

3. MAP OF ROADS AND STREETS.

In anticipation of Government being asked to expose for sale Crown Land in Hongkong and in British Kowloon or to grant leases of Land in the New Territory, and with a view to safeguarding against a repetition of the state of affairs in respect of roads, lanes and buildings as that which now exists in Hongkong and Kowloon, will the Honourable the Director of Public Works inform the Council (1) whether a clearly and well defined Map showing Roads and Streets of adequate width has been or will be prepared; (2) whether such Map will in due course be submitted to this Council; (3) when approved whether the same will be recorded officially and shall not be departed from without the sanction of the Council; and (4) whether a copy of such Map will be deposited in the Office of the Sanitary Board for the information and guidance of the Board's Officers?

The Director of Public Works replied.

5.-WATER SUPPLY.

 In consequence of the daily diminishing supply and of the fact that the water is now only turned on in the City one hour per day, will the Honourable the Director of Public Works inform the Council whether the Government will take into consideration the advisability of immediately increasing the number of water stations along the Praya so as to give an increased supply of water and in some measure alleviate the inconveniences and sufferings of those concerned?

The Director of Public Works replied.

6.-INCREASED WATER STORAGE.

 Will the Honourable the Director of Public Works inform the Council whether the Gov- ernment has taken the necessary measures to temporarily provide, if it be possible to do so in the time now available, for an adequate or additional water storage capacity should there be a

PROFESSOR SIMPSON'S RECOMMENDATIONS.

FIRST MEMORANDUM.

Paragraphs in

Report.

Rats.

4.-(.) Appointment of 2 or 3 train- ed Medical Officers to bacteriologically examine rats daily.

Rat-catchers to be increased in

number,

(c.) Concentration of efforts for des- truction of rats in districts where rats are found to be plague- infected.

(d.) Tendency of rats to migrate to be remembered and watch kept.

5. General destruction of rats and mice to proceed as before.

6 & 7. Methods of destruction sug- gested.

8. Danysz virus to be prepared by Dr. HUNTER and systematically distribut- ed by Sanitary Board.

9. Prevention of rats landing from ships.

Four Japanese doctors are at present employed on this duty having been en- gaged for a period of six months.

The number of rat-catchers in the em- ploy of the Board at the end of last year was twenty-two. The Board has now one hundred and thirty-two rat-catchers and rat-poisoners.

This is specially arranged for, rat-poi- soners being sent to these districts daily.

No marked migration of rats has been observed, except during the house to house cleansing when they left the disin- fected houses.

This has been prosecuted vigorously.

Rat poison and rat traps have been freely used; carbolic acid is poured into rat runs. The question of the treat- ment of ships was referred to the Cham- - ber of Commerce who were not in favour of taking active steps in this direction.

No Danysz virus has been prepared owing to the loss at sea of all Dr. HUNTER'S apparatus, duplicates of which have not yet arrived in the Colony.

A special Ordinance has been passed to secure this, and it is administered by the Police.

Human Plague.

10. The measures to be adopted are:-

(a.) Early discovery of cases.

(b.) Tracing connection with for-

mner cases,

(c) Removal of the sick.

(d) Cleansing and disinfection.

There are seven Chinese senior students of medicine engaged in searching for Plague cases, each student being accom- panied by a British Sapper

a British Sapper and by a Chinese Constable.

This has been done, although in many cases no reliable history is obtainable.

This is carried out by officers of the Board.

Performed by a special brigade of Sanitary Board Officers.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JUNE, 1902.

(e.) Inoculation in plague-infected

localities

These duties are apart from the ordi- nary duties of the Sanitary Staff and render necessary special arrangements for their performance.

11.-(a.) Division of town into dis- tricts and appointment of a Medical man and a Sanitary Inspector to each district.

(b.) Their duty to be discovery of cases, house to house visitation, and supervision of preventive

measures.

(c.) Zone of houses surrounding an

The rat-catching and disinfecting staff' of the Board have been inoculated (includ- ing the Medical Officer of Health) but the general community have not taken the matter up although it is offered free to all.

The pick of the permanent officers have been detailed for plague duty but it is hoped that next year there will be a special plague staff independent of the staff for general sanitary duties.

Endeavours were made to obtain medi- cal men from India, but as this failed, Ja- panese doctors were obtained-six being posted to the twelve health districts, but as they had no knowledge of English their services were found to be ineffective and four were sent back, two (of these six) being retained for bactereological work in connection with the examination of rats.

This is done by the Chinese students

infected house to be inspected by of medicine mentioned at 10 (a.) Medical man daily.

(d.) History of cases to be traced

out and recorded.

(e.) Whereabouts of friends who have had communication with the sick to be ascertained.

(f.) Rats in zone of houses to be

destroyed.

12. Inoculation with Haffkine's pro- phylactic to be encouraged.

13. Medical inspection of incoming passengers from Canton and Macao to be carried out.

14. Establishment of Private Hospital with Chinese Doctors and Nurses may be allowed under proper safeguards.

This is done.

This is also done as far as possible.

This is done by the rat-poisoners.

The Chinese are very averse to this at present.

This is being done as regards Macao.

Several have been sanctioned.

SECOND MEMORANDUM.

Paragraphs

of Report.

5. Building Ordinance requires com- plete revision.

These recommendations are being em-. bodied in a Bill which has been prepared by Mr. CHADWICK and Prof. SIMPSON and which will be presented to Government shortly.

I

1158

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JUNE, 1902.

6.-(a.) Existing Ordinances do not ensure sanitary dwellings.

(b.) Minimum of superficial area and cubic space permitted for each person should be raised.

(c.) Cubicles without windows not

to be permitted.

7-(a.) Sewers and small storm- water channels not to be dependent on ordinary water-supply for flushing.

(b.) Water after filtration at Albany beds to be received in covered reservoirs.

8. Efforts to be concentrated on plague prevention while sanitary improvements in the town itself are being gradually effected.

9. Weekly bulletins as to the existence of plague to be obtained from Consuls in South China, Medical Missionaries, and the Maritime Customs.

Boarding of vessels from plague in- fected districts to be carried out.

Special precautions from January to April in each year desirable.

10.--(a.) Medical inspection of vessels and junks from Chinese Coast during first four months of year to be carried out by Bearding Officers and Medical Officers of the Port.

(b.) Canton steamers to carry from January to June their own Medi- cal Officers.

12. Sick or suspected persons to be dealt with only.

on

Rats.

13. Systematic destruction of rats steamers and junks from plague infected ports on the Chinese Coast and which go alongside wharves or into dock,

to be undertaken.

Emigrants.

16. Registration and control of emi- grant houses: daily inspection: regular medical inspection of emigrants in emi- gration houses: compulsory notification of all sickness to be enforced.

Nothing done. The subject is dealt with more fully in Mr. CHADWICK'S Reports. Much work will be involved in carrying out any such proposal.

It has been pointed out that the cover- ing cannot be done until the leaks which

exist have been made good. This will probably involve practical reconstruction of the reservoir.

This is being done.

This has not yet been arranged. Letters asking for weekly bulletins written to Consuls at ports in South China and to London Missionary Society in Hongkong.

This is done in regard only to vessels from ports declared infected by the Governor-in-Council, at present.

Not yet arranged. Question of medical inspection of Canton steamers discussed by Sanitary Board (vide" Daily Press" of 29-1-1962). Board decided to let question of inspecting Canton steamers stand over.

Not yet arranged.

Do.

Not yet arranged. See (6) and (7). Question referred to Chamber of Com- merce who are opposed to the proposal. Sanitary Board has not therefore pressed

the matter.

Everything in train for registration: notice published, but no licences yet applied for.

The Ordinance (37 of 1901) does not give any power of entry into the houses. The last two points would naturally be included in the Bye-laws, which are still under consideration. (4-6-02).

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JUNE, 1902.

18. Appointment of medical men for districts. (See paragraph 11 of Memo- randum I.)

20. Dumping of bodies of persons dead of plague must be stopped.

Fines to be levied on district or street in which a dead body is dumped.

22.-(a.) Handbills explaining causes and symptoms of plague and measures to be taken on its appearance to be distri- buted.

(b.) Conference of Chinese Doctors to be held and measures for plague prevention explained to them. (c.) Contractors of labour and heads of guilds to be informed of Government's wishes.

23. Bacteriological examination of rats to be carried out daily. (See paragraph 4 of Memorandum I.)

24. Blocks of buildings in which plague infected rats have been found or human plague has occurred may be tem- porarily closed before plague becomes epidemic.

26. Filling up of rat-runs with glass and cement to be carried out.

27. Isolation of contacts may be carried out before plague becomes epi- demic. Vacating of the whole house must be adopted and inmates allowed after disinfection to go to certain districts. Exception to be made in pneumonic plague cases.

in a house.

(b.) When plague infected rats are

discovered.

29.-(a.) Special plague staff to be established under the Medical Officer of Health.

b.) Medical Officer of Health to

The arrangement as regards the Japa- nese doctors did not succeed. It is sug- gested (by the Medical Officer of Health) that qualified students of the Hongkong College of Medicine would answer the purpose admirably. Not yet stopped.

Decided in Executive Council on the 3rd instant that this proposal be not adopt- ed but that a reward of $10 be offered instead for each authentic living case of plague reported by a Chinese as having occurred in any particular house`occupied wholly or in part by Chinese.

ed,

Several thousands have been distribut-

Not yet done if done, little good be- yond the mere publication could be hoped for.

Every rat found or caught in the Col- ony is now bacteriologically examined.

This has been done. A list of the houses so closed is attached to C. S. O. 1193/02.

This is carried out by the officers of the Board in plague infected houses and by the owners on the written order of the Board in all other houses which are found to contain rat-runs.

Several large blocks of new buildings have been rented by the Government for the accommodation of persons displaced from plague infected houses and such premises are visited daily by the Assistant Medical Officer of Health and the persons inspected. These people are not kept as prisoners but allowed to proceed to work. Shop-keepers have been given ground- floors so that they can continue their business.

This has been carried out except that there has been no detention and isolation of contacts other than that described in 27 (above), and that the inspector is not a medical man.

Not yet arranged for.

A European clerk has recently been appointed who attends to a good deal of this class of work now.

REGULATIONS

Made by the Officer Administering the Government in Council, on the 13th day of June, 1902, under the provisions of The Rats Ordinance, 1902.

In these Regulations, unless the context otherwise requires, the word "Ship" means any description of yessels used in navigation not propelled by oars, except Junks or Lorchas not propelled by steam and except launches plying within the waters of the Colony.

To prevent rats on board ship coming on shore, and the shore rats from getting on board ship-

(1.) All cables, hawsers, and ropes used for mooring ships alongside any wharf, or passing between the ship and the shore, and all shore used for securing ships in dock, must when such shores are within a distance of 12 inches from any open port or other opening in the ship's side or within 12 inches of the gunwale or rail) have fastened on them a funnel-shaped appliance consisting of a tube of iron or other metal about 2 feet in length, with a trumpet-like flange. This trumpet-like flange must double, in order to prevent the rats from passing either way along the cable, and each flange must extend at least 8 inches clear of the rope or cable. The cable or rope must be passed through the tube and the intervening space filled up.

To prevent rats from entering buildings-

(1.) It shall be lawful for the Sanitary Board to serve a notice on the owner of any premises, requiring him to fill up with cement, or other material to be approved by the Board, all rat-runs and other similar holes in the brickwork, stonework or flooring of any building, and to provide suitable gratings for all ventilating openings, with a view to the exclusion of rats from such building.

GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.--No. 390.

The following Report on the Government Fire Brigade, for the year 1901, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 25th June, 1902.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

FIRE BRIGADE DEPARTMENT, HONGKONG, 22nd March, 1902.

SIR,--I have the honour to submit the following report on the Government Fire Brigade for the year 1901.

   2. There were fifty-eight Fires and eighty-four Incipient Fires during the year. ing each are attached. The Brigade turned out fifty-seven times during the year.

Details regard-

The estimated damages caused by the Fires was $630,381 and by the Incipient Fires $212.50. 3. A list is attached showing the number of Fires that have occurred during each of the last ten years with the estimated value of property destroyed in each case.

4. The water in the mains was turned off from 11th November last, since which date the steam engines and sea water were used, and the work of extinguishing Fires was rendered less prompt and considerably more arduous.

5. One large Fire occurred in a wharehouse after that date, fortunately quite close to the sea-wall. 6. One Fire occurred in the Harbour during the year.

   7. A new telescopic fire-escape, capable of reaching a height of 60 feet, was received from Eng- land on the 5th November. The men were drilled in handling it, but it was never called into actual use at a Fire.

   8. I attach a list of places where Fire Despatch Boxes are kept, and copy of report by the Engineer on the state of the Fire Engines, which are all in good order. (Since the report was written No. 3 Engine has been repaired.)

9. The conduct of the Brigade has been good.

   10. I acted as Superintendent of the Brigade, and Mr. MACKIE as Assistant Superintendent from the 5th September, when Mr. MAY left the Colony on leave of absence.

   11. An additional Assistant Superintendent was added to the Brigade from the 15th July, the post being filled by Inspector KEMP.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

HONGKONG, 19th February, 1902. SIR, I have the honour to forward the Annual Report on the state of the Government Fire Engines, for the year ending 31st December, 1901.

STEAMER No. 1.

(Floating Fire Engine by Shand & Mason.)

    This Engine has been 4 years in service, was docked and over-hauled in June, 1901, and the Hull, Eugines, Boiler and Pumps are now in good order and condition.

STEAMER No. 2.

(Land Engine by Shand & Mason.)

    This Engine has been 23 years in service (Boiler 4 years) it has been regularly tested at Drill for Drivers and is now in good order and condition.

STEAMER No. 3.

(Land Engine by Shand & Mason.)

At

    This Engine has been 22 years in service and has been regularly tested at Drill for Drivers. the last two Drills great difficulty was experienced in getting the Pump to catch the water, and on examination I found the Valve Seats badly corroded thus preventing a Vacuum being formed in the Chamber.

STEAMER No. 4.

(Land Engine by Shand & Mason.)

This Engine has been 20 years in service and has been regularly tested at Drill and is now in good order and condition.

STEAMER No. 5.

(Land Engine by Shand & Mason.)

This Engine has been 15 years in service, it was over-hauled in 1900, and has been regularly tested at Drill and is now in good order and condition.

    All the Manual Engines and gear, Hose, Reels, Ladders and Supply Carts have been kept in good repair and are now in good order and condition.

    Owing to the extra work the Engines have recently done at fires and considering the long time that has elapsed since they were over-hauled, I consider that it will be necessary during the present t year to examine and over-haul each of the Engines; but with the exception of No. 3 Engine, this can be left till the water from the mains can be used for fires.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

D. MACDONALD, Engineer, Fire Brigade.

The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry into the stranding of the British Steam- ship Robert Dickinson, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 23rd June, 1902.

FINDING.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary,

We find that the British steamship Robert Dickinson, 82891, of which SYDNEY FREDERICK MCDONNELL was Master, the number of whose certificate is 243 of St. John's, Newfoundland, left Hongkong on the 18th May on a voyage to Yokohama.

The Robert Dickinson was a tank steamer of 1,331 net register tons, and she had on board a full cargo of kerosene oil in bulk.

That at about 3.34 on the morning of the 20th May, the ship struck on the western extreme of Ockseu Island and remained on shore for about 3 hours, eventually coming off with a rising tide and the assistance of the engines.

-

It appears from the evidence that the ship ran into a fog at about 2.20 a.m. on the 20th and that the Master estimated that at 3.30 a.m. she was about 8 miles from Ockseu. In making this estimate, however, the Court is of opinion that a proper allowance had not been made by the Master for cur- rent, nor for the error of the compass, and that the distance run, as shown by the patent log, was relied on in spite of the current, which had been clearly shown in the log as existing ever since leaving Hongkong.

As a matter of fact, if the allowances had been made for current, compass and patent log, which the evidence and the logs show were necessary, the position of the ship works out to be almost exactly the one she was found in, namely, on the Island of Ockseu. The Master also appears to have unduly relied for the navigation of the ship on the Fog-signal Gun at Ockseu.

   Having fully considered the evidence, the Court is of opinion that the Robert Dickinson was not navigated in a proper and seamanlike manner and that the casualty was due to this, which they are of opinion amounts to a Wrongful Act or Default on the part of the Master, and they therefore direct that his Certificate be suspended for a period of three months from this date.

The Court learns from the evidence, with surprise, that the ship was not fitted with the Revolution Counter in the Engine Room, making it very difficult to set the ship to a given speed, and in coming to their conclusion the Court has taken this fact into full consideration.

The Court further directs that a First Mate's certificate be issued during the period of suspension, if the Master so desires.

Given under our hands at Victoria, Hongkong, this 20th June, 1902.

That at about 7 p.m., owing to the removal by the Third Engineer of the cover of the sea connection for the ballast tank, the ship began to take in water, and the attempts to stop it being ineffectual, she sank at her moorings in about 7 fathoms of water.

It appears from the evidence that the Master was on shore, that the Chief Engineer went on shore at 6 p.m., and the Second Engineer went on shore at 6.30, leaving the duty of filling the ballast tank to the Third Engineer, who had only been in the ship a few hours. The Second Engineer states that he distinctly told the Third Engineer to examine the valve in the intermediate box and not to touch the sea connection, but the Court finds it difficult to make this statement correspond with the action of the Third Engineer, who almost immediately afterwards went down and did not touch the interme- diate valve box but did take the cover off the sea connection, as admitted by himself.

The Court having heard and carefully considered the evidence, is of opinion that the ship sank as the result of one serious blunder of the Third Engineer, preceded and followed by a series of hardly less serious faults on the part of others. The Court is impressed with the apparent want of resource shewn by those concerned. In Hongkong it is difficult to imagine not being able to engage the services of almost any number of steam-launches at almost any hour of the day or night, and a tow of about 1,000 yards would at any rate have got the ship into 3 fathoms less water than she went down in. No signals were made to attract attention, and no application made to the ships close by for assistance.

The Court considers that the leaving of the Third Engineer in charge of the important duty of. examining the valves connecting with the ballast tank was a serious error on the part of the Second Engineer, and indeed they are unable to acquit the Chief Engineer of all responsibility on this score, for the Court is of opinion that he ought to have been aware of the fact that the ballast tank was being filled.

    The absence of the crew is one of the contributing causes of the loss of the ship, had there been more help, more might have been done, and here again it is clear that application to the adjacent ships might have had beneficial effect.

    The Court, however, is of opinion that these faults of commission and omission do not amount to a wrongful act or default, and the certificates of the Master, Officers and Engineers are not therefore dealt with.

The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry into the sinking of the British Steam- ship Pakshan, is published.

By Command,

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 23rd June, 1902.

FINDING.

We find that the British s.s. Pakshan, Official No. 82893, of London, of which JAMES GEORGE REID was Master, whose certificate of competency as Master is 094,439, was lying at a buoy in Hongkong Harbour on the evening of 2nd June.

That the Ship had on board undischarged cargo consisting of 700 bags of rice; she had also about 207 tons of bunker coal.

That at about 7 p.m., owing to the removal by the Third Engineer of the cover of the sea connection for the ballast tank, the ship began to take in water, and the attempts to stop it being ineffectual, she sank at her moorings in about 7 fathoms of water.

It appears from the evidence that the Master was on shore, that the Chief Engineer went on shore at 6 p.m., and the Second Engineer went on shore at 6.30, leaving the duty of filling the ballast tank to the Third Engineer, who had only been in the ship a few hours. The Second Engineer states that he distinctly told the Third Engineer to examine the valve in the intermediate box and not to touch the sea connection, but the Court finds it difficult to make this statement correspond with the action of the Third Engineer, who almost immediately afterwards went down and did not touch the interme- diate valve box but did take the cover off the sea connection, as admitted by himself.

SIR,

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

OFFICE OF THE CROWN AGENTS FOR THE COLONIES, DOWNING STREET, LONDON, S.W., 27th May, 1902.

The Secretary of State in his circular despatch of the 20th April, 1901, on the of the connection between malarial fever and mosquitoes, referred to several suggestions made by Lord Onslow's Committee, of which one was :----

"(h) That the Crown Agents for the Colonies be required to arrange "that a supply of suitable wire gauze and mosquito netting is available, "patterns of which should be easily accessible."

2. Acting upon this suggestion we took steps to ascertain what was the most suitable quality of gauze, and on the advice of Dr. P. Manson, F.R.S., we instructed Messrs. Shelford and Son, MM.LC.E., to conduct an experimental investigation on the subject of the durability and most suitable dimensions of the various kinds of wire gauzes.

I now have the honour to enclose, for your information, a copy of the report with which they have furnished us stating the result of their enquiry. We also obtained from a number of Colonial Governments the opinions of various experienced officers as to what quality and size of gauze was found most effective in excluding mosquitoes and at the same time permitting a free supply of air.

3. In view of the information so obtained and acting under the instructions of the Secretary of State, we invited tenders for quantities of 10,000 square feet-in 3 feet widths--of both brass and tinned-steel netting, with the result that it was found that the best quotation for adoption was one of the following:-

(1.) Brass (16 mesh and 30 B.W.G.)-2.42d. per square foot.

(2.) Tinned Steel (16 mesh and 30 B.W.G.)-2.00d. per square foot.

These prices, though stated to be for quantities of 10,000 square feet, will, subject to fluctuations in the market price of the materials concerned, apply to any smaller quantities that may be ordered, and are considerably lower than Messrs. Burrows' tender for Cop Bronze, which was at 4.09d. per square foot.

4. For your further information, I also enclose one sample of each kind of gauze recommended.

5. We are now prepared to execute indents for wire netting of this nature and, for convenience of reference, we would suggest that the material should be describ- ed as:-

"Standard" Brass Gauze,

and "Standard" Tinned Steel Gauze,

in any indents that may be sent to us.

TO THE CROWN AGENTS FOR THE COLONIES,

GENTLEMEN,

DOWNING STREET, S.W.

MOSQUITO MALARIA.

We herewith have the honour to hand you a short report on the results of tests made with various wire gauzes in connection with the Mosquito-Malaria Theory.

I.

PRELIMINARY.

In January last, a small Committee presided over by Lord Onslow was appointed by the Colonial Office to consider what practical suggestions could be made to the different Tropical Colonies in view of the recent investigations into Malaria, and certain recommendations made by Dr. Patrick Manson.

The Committee carefully considered the whole matter, and made the following nine suggestions, which were forwarded to the Governors of Tropical and Sub- tropical Colonies.

Briefly enumerated they are :

1. That all new Buildings should be located away from Native Quarters, Jungle, and stagnant water, and where possible on high ground. 2. That all Buildings or parts of same should be protected against Mosquitoes by Wire Gauze fitted to doors and windows.

3. The rooms to be provided with special means for the destruction of the Mosquito.

4. That Europeans should provide themselves with approved Mos- quito Nets when travelling.

5. That in all rooms a special notice on "Malaria, its cause and prevention," by Dr. Manson, be exhibited.

6. That Medical Officers be appointed to inspect, instruct, and superintend the carrying out of measures for the prevention of transmis- sion of Malaria by Mosquitoes.

7. That practical demonstrations be given to prove that residence in Mosquito proof houses diminishes infection.

8. That the Crown Agents be requested to arrange that a suitable supply of Wire Gauze and netting be available.

9. That Europeans going out to Malarial Colonies be advised to provide themselves with Mosquito Nets.

It will be seen that the chief point in the above is the provision of suitable wire gauze and netting, and in a letter from yourselves dated February 19th, 1901, you approved of an expenditure, not exceeding £25, being made to ascertain and test the climate resisting qualities of certain kinds of gauze which it is proposed to use in houses in West Africa, for the purpose of making them Mosquito proof.

II.

MATERIALS TO BE TESTED.

We have made a large number of enquiries from various Firms connected with the wire gauze trade, but chiefly with the Firms of Messrs. John Staniar & Co., of Manchester; and the E. T. Burroughs Co., of Portland, Maine, U.S.A. From the former Firm we obtained samples of Steel, Tinned Steel, Painted Iron, Copper, Brass, and perforated Zinc. We also had specially woven by this Firm some Nickle Steel Gauze made from Nickel Steel, kindly provided by Messrs. Cammell & Co., Sheffield. Messrs. Burroughs Co. supplied us with their Standard Gauzes- Enamelled Steel, Enamelled Galvanized Steel and Cop-Bronze.

All these Gauzes have been tested, with results which we give later. Other gauzes, such as Aluminium and Nickel, etc., have been suggested, but they have not been tested on account of their prohibitive cost.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 4TH JULY, 1902.

HI-SIZE OF MESH AND WEIGHT PER SQ. FT., AND THICKNESS OF WIRE.

The aperture between the wires or mesh is of primary importance, and it appears to be the general opinion that a mesh having 16 wires to the inch will be sufficient. A larger mesh than this, that is one having less wires to the inch, might allow a Mosquito to pass through, whereas a smaller mesh will, to some extent, prevent the air from passing freely.

The weight of the gauze supplied by Messrs. Staniar was in all cases too heavy, the majority weighing about 4 to 5 ozs. per sq. ft.; on the other hand that supplied by Messrs. Burroughs appears rather too light, it weighing on the average, with the small mesh, about 2 ozs. Apparently a gauze weighing 24 ozs. per sq. ft. and having a 16 mesh, will be found most suitable.

The durability of gauze depends considerably on the diameter of the wire employed, a thicker wire, i.e., a heavier gauze resisting corrosion better than a thinner wire. The best size of wire would appear to be 30 B.W.G.

IV. TESTS OF MATERIAL.

(a.) In order to ascertain the quality of gauze to resist rust, we constructed a small apparatus by means of which samples could be introduced and exposed to a jet of steam. There are various chemical methods of rusting metals, but we considered the next best thing to actual exposure in tropical climates was to make an experiment whereby the hot damp climate could be reproduced on a small scale. This steaming process was carried on each day over a period of about three months, the total amount of time during which the apparatus was under steam being about 300 hours. During each night the specimens were exposed to the air, and during the latter part of the experiment they were additionally tested by being alternately moistened by the steam and then dried.

(b.) The results of the experiments can now be given :---

PAINTED IRON, STEEL AND TINNED STEEL.

Those gauzes supplied by Messrs. Staniar & Co., and marked A, B and C respectively, were tested for 150 hours, spread over about 45 days. The result is that the steel specimen (B) is almost entirely blocked up with rust, whilst the other specimens of Painted Iron and Tinned Steel are nearly in the same state.

This convinces us that any type of gauze consisting of Steel or Iron, although well painted or galvanized, is unsuitable for use in damp, hot climates.

COPPER.

The specimen marked D has been tested for over 300 hours during three months, and there are, as might be expected, no signs of its having been affected, except slight discolouration. This gauze might be used, but it has the disadvantages of being poisonous and more costly than other suitable gauzes.

BRASS (SPECIMEN E).

This material, supplied by Messrs. Staniar & Co., has also been tested for the same length of time as the Copper, viz., 300 hours, and shows no sign of decay. It is not so expensive as Copper, and we think will be found one of the most suitable for tropical climates.

NICKEL STEEL (SPECIMENS F AND G).

Nickel Steel Gauze is, we find, not commercially procurable, but, thinking it would be found to be one of the most suitable, we ordered some of this gauze to be made by Messrs. Staniar & Co. Whilst, however, this gauze was being made, we obtained some Nickel Steel wire, and wove it into gauze ourselves for testing purposes. Our own spe- cimen (marked F) has been tested for 300 hours, spread over three months, during the whole of the experiments, with the result that the Nickel Steel wire is completely covered with rust. On receiving the other specimen from Messrs. Staniar we immediately started experimenting on it, and after a test of 250 hours, spread over 2 months, we found that the specimen was nearly as good as when sent from the makers, and it had not been discoloured.

From the above remarks it is evident that the durability of Nickel Steel Gauze depends upon the proportion of its constituents, and elaborate

1213

and prolonged experiments are necessary to determine the best composition of Nickel Steel which will possess climate-resisting properties. Since, however, we tested this gauze we have obtained from the makers its price if ordered in large quantities, and regret that the price quoted, viz., 8d. per square foot, prohibits its adoption, this price being more than double that for Brass or Cop-Bronze.

ENAMELLED STEEL AND ENAMELLED GALVANIZED STEEL.

These specimens (marked H and I) were supplied by Messrs. Burroughs & Co., of Portland, U.S.A., and is, we are informed, the type of gauze used in protecting houses from Mosquitoes in the Southern States of America. Both specimens have been experimented upon for about 170 hours with the result that the Enamelled Steel has, as previously, quite rusted away. The Enamelled Galvanized Steel has stood the test better, but for all that we think that any type of gauze of this material is quite unsuitable for Tropical climates.

COP-BRONZE.

This specimen (marked J) is also made by the Burroughs Co., U.S.A.. and although of a rather light weight is, we think, a very suitable material. It has been tested for 170 hours and shows no sign of decay. We think that this gauze is probably one of the most suitable for use in the tropics and we suggest that it should be given a trial when an opportunity occurs. (c.) All the gauzes mentioned above which have been tested in the manner indicated have also been tested in a lesser degree by being exposed continuously on the grass in a meadow in the suburbs of London during the wet weather from February to May.

Specimens of Painted Iron, Steel, Tinned Steel, Copper, Brass and Nickle Steel (marked K, L, M, N, O and P respectively) were exposed in this manner for three months, and specimens of American Gauze, viz., Enamelled Steel, Enamelled Gal- vanized Steel and Cop-Bronze (marked Q, R and S) were exposed for 12 months.

These specimens have been affected by the rust in the same way as described above but in a lesser degree.

V. CONCLUSION.

From these experiments it will be seen that the only gauzes likely to be suitable for damp tropical countries are

    that the selection of the most suitable materials lies between Brass and Cop-Bronze, as Copper and Nickel Steel at present prices are too expensive.

The Cop-Bronze is manufactured by Messrs. Burroughs & Co., Portland, Maine, U.S.A., and is only obtainable in 14 or 18 mesh, and of these two sizes we would recommend the 18 mesh. Messrs. Burroughs also supply complete door and window frames fitted with their gauze wire.

VI. Finally we beg to recommend that a quotation for the supply of 10,000 square feet of Cop-Bronze of 16 or 18 mesh, made with wire of 30 B.W.G., and 3 ft. wide be asked for, f.o.b. Liverpool, from Messrs.. Burroughs & Co., Portland, Maine, U.S.A., and a similar quotation be obtained for Brass wire gauze.

Firms will probably quote to you a price on the best terms, and you would then obtain a reliable comparison as to price between common Brass gauze and the speciality manufactured by Messrs. Burroughs, so that in case of the occurrence of a demand for mosquito gauze, the difference in price between these two commodities would be at once known.

For the sake of convenience to yourselves we retain possession of the samples for the present.

We have the honour to be, Gentlemen,

Your obedient servants,

  The following Report on the Botanical and Afforestation Department, for the year 1901, is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 4th July, 1902.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

BOTANICAL AND AFFORESTATION DEPARTMENT, HONGKONG, 18th April, 1902.

  SIR,--For the information of His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government I have the honour to forward the Annual Report on this Department for the past year, 1901.

STAFF.

  2. The Superintendent was absent on leave from the end of March, 1900, until the end of September, 1901; the Assistant Superintendent, who officiated during his absence, was actively employed, and with the effective work of the clerks and the leading men in the different departments, he has maintained the ordinary routine work generally in satisfactory order.

  3. Towards the end of the year the Head Forester, SUEN TUNG, resigned in order, as he alleged, to go into business, and YUNG CHING was appointed in his place. The latter enters with an excellent character, and although he lacks knowledge of forestry work, he promises soon to acquire what is needed.

  4. The Foreman Forester also resigned, and he was replaced by WONG SING Po, who was educated in the Queen's College and promises to become a useful man.

  5. During the previous year there was the unprecedented number of 45 changes in the out-door staff and notwithstanding the general increase of wages which commenced on January 1st, there were 37 changes again last year, 15 of which occurred in the 3rd quarter; in the 4th quarter the numbers decreased to 11, and during the 1st quarter of this year there has been a further fall to 6 only, so there is some promise now of improvement which, I hope, with careful management, may be maintained.

  6. Last year was a record one for absences on account of alleged sickness, 968 days having been registered.

BOTANIC GARDENS.

  7. Plant-houses. In my Report for 1900 I mentioned that No. 1 Plant-house-in the Old Garden-was being re-built on an enlarged and improved plan; this consisted principally of the sub- stitution of tables supported partly by angle iron instead of brick walls, which could never be kept clean on account of mossy growth on them, of increased width of tables and of a roof at a greater height, bearing split bamboos with the internodes cut out and the concave sides placed uppermost, which carries off about half or more of the rainfall; the bamboos are spaced at about half their width which allows just sufficient light to penetrate for successful plant growth. These changes have resulted in a very great improvement in the condition of the ferns which the house contains.

  8. Immediately after my return in September, No. 2 house was razed and its re-construction commenced, followed by No. 3 in the same manner, in order to complete the plan which was designed when No. 1 house was commenced, but the execution of which was interrupted by my absence when on leave.

  9. Nos. 1 and 3 houses are each about 52 feet long by 26 feet wide, and No. 2, which stands transversely between Nos. 1 and 3, is 37 feet long by 28 feet wide. No. 1 is filled with ferns and kindred plants and Nos. 2 and 3 will be used for the accommodation of orchids and ferns as the old houses were.

10. The enlargement of the three houses will give 400 square feet of additional table space for plants.

11. At the north and south of this range rockeries have been constructed and the entrance at the south end instead of being by way of a flight of steps is arranged to come in level from a side-walk.

12. Just before the end of the year extensive repairs were commenced to the plant-houses-Nos. 5, 6, 7 and 8-in the nursery and the usual annual re-painting was done to these houses and gates, railings &c., in different parts of the Garden.

1216

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 4TH JULY, 1902.

13. Walks.-Repairs to these as well as many other things were suspended between March, 1900, and October, 1901, but in the autumn arrangements

walks, the with cement à large area of the decaying lime-concreted were made for resuming the work of surfacing He whole thich should be completed during the current year when no further expenditure should be needed on any walks with gradients for a great many years to come.

14. Lawns. Many of these are becoming very uneven owing to the sinking of the earth in places, but more particularly to the action of earth-worms which are very numerous and very large. For this reason the lawns require to be frequently re-laid and a good deal of work is needed and should be taken in hand as soon as possible.

15. Shrubberies.-Shrubs grow so rapidly and become worn out so quickly that it is necessary to be constantly re-planting some of them, and there is of this work a rather unusual amount which now requires to be done.

16. Rockeries.-What has been said in regard to shrubberies applies equally as much to rockeries. These are usually made in the shade of trees and over their roots, which quickly grow into the good soil prepared for the plants which grow in the rockeries. The re-planting of all rockeries is now much needed and work on them has commenced.

17. Succulents. These have become overgrown in places and worn out in others and much need increased attention and re-planting.

18. Roses. I have been for many years endeavouring to improve these and increase the number of varieties which can be grown here, but although there is ample evidence that very great improvement is possible and that all the conditions for greater success are within reach, yet I find the greatest diffi- culty in the execution of what is indicated by myself.

19. Japanese Bamboos.-A few years ago a small collection of were obtained from Japan and planted in a group by themselves. good effect and encourage the enlargement of the collection.

bamboos, including Phyllostachys, These have thrived and produced a

20. Indigenous Orchids.--A small rockery was made some years ago for the reception of a collection of Hongkong orchids, which, however, are not in the condition which good cultivation might have produced.

21. Rhododendron javanica.-In 1897 a collection of hybrids from this beautiful Java Rhododen- dron was obtained for trial from Messrs. J. VEITCH & SONS of London. They were kept under glass for some time, but afterwards they have been grown-in pots-under slight shade and shelter from heavy rains and have succeeded very well indeed, and annually produced their lovely flowers.

22. Bougainvillea glabra, Cæsalpinia muga.-The exceptional colour of the flowers of the formee exercise the minds of many people when making use of it in combination with other colours. For thr benefit of those who are interested I may mention that if it and Cæsalpinia nuga, which is a robust climber indigenous to Hongkong, are planted near to each other, the yellow flowers of the latter and the flowers of the Bougainvillea have a pleasing effect. Caesalpinia vernalis, also an indigenous climber but with more beautiful foliage although smaller flowers, is also useful for the same purpose.

23. Fibrous-rooted Begonia.-Seeds of this plant were obtained for experiment from Messrs. SUTTON & SONS two years ago and it has proved a most valuable addition to bedding plants here, flowering between the cold and hot seasons. It has been treated as an annual, but as one plant has lived through both seasons although in a bed and exposed to all weathers, it is possible that by careful selection in plants from which seeds are gathered a strain may be established which will be perpetual.

24. Wistaria sinensis.-This favourite climber has not flowered well in Hongkong, but it has been experimented with by providing good soil for its roots and a horizontal trellis for its branches where it gets full exposure to sun. With this treatment it produces flowers in fair quantity, but the racemes are rather small, these however should be capable of improvement by better cultivation.

25. Acclimatisation.-Opportunities are watched for increasing the number of desirable ornamental plants, and in this way two welcome additions have been established; one a Pink-Dianthus-which Mr. E. S. KELLY had introduced to his garden, was kindly contributed by that gentleman in response to a request, and it is flourishing even through the summer. This is the first of the Pink family which has made itself at home here. The other is the "southern-wood"-Artemisia abrotanum- which Mrs. WICKING before she left Hongkong had successfully established at the Peak, and which thrives equally as well, with some protection down here.

26. Hippeastrum (Amaryllis).-VEITCH'S strain of this showy bulbous plant which was introduced some years ago to replace older and inferior varieties is succeeding remarkably well not only in pots but in an open border for which a sufficient stock was propagated three years ago. For those really interested in their gardens this easily cultivated plant could not be too highly recommended.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 4TH JULY, 1902.

1217

27. Western and Northern. China Plants.-Messrs. JAMES VEITCH & SONS of London have very kindly contributed through their collector, Mr. WILSON, who has recently returned to England after three years' plant-collecting. in China, some plants which are valuable acquisitions. Amongst them should be specially mentioned Jasminum primulinum, a species with, as has been said, "glorified" yellow flowers of J. nudiflorum, Libocedrus macrolepis, a very fine conifer, Magnolia Delavayi and Primula obconica all of which are thriving remarkably well. The Primula has its home on ledges of rocks in the Yangtsze gorges above Ichang and is, I believe, the first one of its genus which has really succeeded in Hongkong.

28. Supplementary Indigenous Plants.-Two unknown climbing plants were discovered in the Island in 1899 and brought to the Gardens to be grown until they flowered in order to identify them. Flowers were produced in 1900 and last year. One is found to be Canavalia obtusa, D. C., and the other a species of Illigera, which is apparently the same as specimens in the herbarium which were collected on the Lo-fau Mountains in the Kwang Tung Province. These bring the total number of plants, exclusive of mosses, lichens, sea-weeds and fungi, indigenous to Hongkong, up to 1,344 that is 38 more than BENTHAM gives as indigenous to the whole of the British Islands, BENTHAM in the "Flora Hongkongensis," published in 1861, described 1,053 plants as found here. About ten years later Dr. H. F. HANCE in his supplement enumerated or described an additional 75 plants, and now I have a further list of about 253 later discoveries, which make the total number 1,397 species.

&

  On the 19th April, 1900, a paper on "Some Mosses from China and Japan," by Mr. E. S. SALMON, F.L.S., was read before the Linnean Society in which 18 mosses were recorded from Hongkong, 16 of which were additions to the Flora, 5 previously found only in Japan, 5 before not found out of India, and 1 new to science; the latter was named Calymperes Fordü, Beach.

29. Interchange of Plants and Seeds.-Introductions are somewhat more curtailed as the rather limited available space becomes less for their development, but every year there are many interesting and useful additions. The chief donors of plants, seeds or animals during the year were:-

31. Plant Sales.-Although there was not any falling off in money realised by the sale of plants there was a large decrease in the number of plants sold. This was in consequence of the prices having been doubled about the middle of the year and the result so far as the public are concerned is that only the more wealthy of the community are now able to buy. The number of plants sold was 2,345 com- pared with 3,451 in the previous year.

1218

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 4TH JULY, 1902.

32. Loan of Plants.-There was under this heading a proportionate falling off in the number of plants applied for so that the anticipated doubling of revenue did not follow, the figures remaining but very little in excess of those of the previous year, the small increase was practically of no advantage to the Government and yet the public did not obtain the usual amount of satisfaction. The plants lent are chiefly for public purposes such as balls, concerts, &c., and they consist of specimen plants in pots from 10 inches to 18 inches in diameter, the plants being from 2 feet to 10 feet in height. The numbers lent during the last three years were:

1899, 1900,

1901;

.4,235

.3,651

.2,570

There may have been some little reason for a small increase in the prices of plants sold, but as a profit was already being made on loan plants there was not sufficient reason for an increased rate for them, therefore it has been taken off and the previous rate reverted to, as it was not the original inten- tion, nor is it desirable, that profits should be made out of plants lent for such purposes as these are.

   Aviaries and Deer Pens.-The birds and animals continue a source of attraction and are in good condition.

There seems to have been a good deal of mortality amongst them during the year but the numbers have been maintained by various additions from time to time for which thanks are due to the donors.

34. Rainfall.-The rainfall was only 58.03 inches, which is the smallest since 1895 when it was only 53.55.

Appendix A gives the statistics.

HERBARIUM.

   35. The collections of dried plants are in good condition. Work in this section of the Department during the absence of the Superintendent, naturally, had, as usual, to remain in abeyance.

   36. The time of the Superintendent, which had been so much absorbed in additional work in other directions, has not been sufficient to allow of a mass of material which has been accumulating for a few years to be dealt with beyond having collections of dried plants poisoned to preserve them from destruction by insects. These collections now require to be mounted and incorporated but I still have not time to go through them in preparation for the Chinese assistants to do the mounting, nor to incorporate such as are mounted.

37. Herbarium work is conducted entirely by the Superintendent with Chinese assistants only.

LIBRARY.

38. Beyond the usual periodical publications and reports there have been no additions of standard works.

39. Insects cause a good deal of trouble in the care of books which are in open cases.

Closed cases with glass doors which would retain the fumes of naphthaline would probably preserve the books in better condition.

40. Annual Reports, Bulletins, &c., have been received from the following establishments, to the chiefs of whom thanks are due:-

   Calcutta, Ceylon, Grenada, Jamaica, Kolonial Museum Haarlem, Mr. Romell, Stockholm; Natal, New South Wales, Rio de Janeiro, Royal Gardens, Kew; Saharapur, Sydney, Straits Settlements, Trinidad, the Agricultural Departments of Cape of Good Hope, England, Queensland, United States of America, University of California, West Indies, Zanzibar, Forest Administration in Assam, Ajmere Merwara, Baluschistan, Bengal, Burma, Bombay, Central Province, Coorg, Hyderabad, Madras, North- West Provinces and Oudh, Punjab, Western Australia.

FORESTRY IN HONGKONG.

   41. Planting operations in Hongkong were the smallest on record since afforestation work was established. The total number of trees planted was 1,719 which amounted to one small day's work in the usual order of planting. Annual plantings should, at least, equal the number of trees destroyed by fire or by illicit tree cutters in the previous year which, however, exceeded those planted by 971,

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 4TH JULY, 1902.

1219

but these will be far more than made good this year as arrangements are made for bringing up the numbers either by planting or sowing seeds to about that of the previous year's work which was 54,000.

  42. The planting of lands suitable for trees either in regard to their growth or facilities for protec- tion is almost completed in the Island except in catch-water areas of reservoirs, and those are being attended to this year. Afterwards planting generally will be only needed to replace losses by fires or other mischief. Statistics are given in Appendix B.

  43. In connection with the completion of the main features of tree planting in Hongkong, it will be useful and interesting to mention here that since the establishment of an Afforestation Department the whole of my plans have been carried out under my direct guidance and control by Chinese and without European assistance, except once a year when either the Assistant Superintendent or a Police Constable was employed to count tree pits to check the contractors' numbers, and also when the Assistant Superintendent has carried on the plans during, mostly, rather brief intervals when I have been absent on leave. The work has not been done without constant care, but it speaks well for the Chinese staff, who, if the leading members had the same educational advantages and technical training as Europeans, would be still more valuable.

Thanks are due to the Police Department for again rendering great assistance in extinguishing grass-fires; the stations at Shaukiwan, Stanley, Aberdeen, Pokfulam and West Point (No. 7) having done a great deal of work with the aid of hired coolies paid by this Department, as usual.

44. Thinning of Plantations.-There was also a little diminished activity in this work. The number of trees cut out was 32,274, which sold for $728.15, a decrease of $96.30 compared with 1900. The items and particulars are provided in Appendix D.

  45. Fires.-There was a considerable increase in the number of fires and trees destroyed by them, 12,174 trees having been killed and there were 41 fires. Little Hongkong district has a very bad reputation in this respect, as have also Mount Davis and Mount Kellet, the two latter owing their misfortunes most probably chiefly to the people who frequent the graves there.

  46. Experience points out the necessity of still further widening fire barriers as trees increase in size, especially when they are on steep declivities. Probably 50 feet will be a necessary width in some places.

About 32 miles of fire barriers were cleared and 3 miles of new ones made. Appendix E contains statistics of grass-fires.

  47. Protective Service. Only 310 trees were reported as having been stolen, but there is evidence that the forest guards have been very slack and I have no doubt they have neglected to report in many cases as tree cutters seem to have been pretty active.

The guards had 55 cases, but of these there was the very unusual number of 19 aquittals; the number of convictions averaged about 7 only for each man for the whole year.

There is only one forest guard who has as much as one year's service, it is therefore not surprising that with so many changes their work is far from what is desired.

FORESTRY IN THE NEW TERRITORY.

48. Tree Planting.-As mentioned in my Report for 1899 soon after the New Territory was taken over I made arrangements and operations were commenced in October for planting about 80,000 trees. Four new Police Stations were first to have about 20,000 trees planted in their neighbourhoods and then beginning was to be made with planting about 60,000 in a broad band of each side of the new road which had been commenced and was to run from Kowloon to Taipo. I hoped that in time the roadside planting would be extended, year by year, to Taipo, a distance of 17 miles. The number of trees actually planted was 81,154 and they consisted chiefly of Pines, Camphors, Eucalyptus and Tristaneas. A considerable number of pine and camphor tree seeds were sown in situ, the failures-there are always some-have now been re-sown or re-planted.

In addition to these a supplementary plan was carried out of sowing seeds of Pinus Massoniana broadcast on each side of the road between the 3rd and 6th mile stones and they have given most satisfactory results. A rough measurement of the land sown and estimate of seedlings gives an addition to the 81,000 named above of about 22,000 which were not alluded to in the Report for 1900, making a total for the first year's work in the New Territory of about 103,000 trees.

  49. Broadcast sowing, if the land on which the seeds are sown and the time of sowing is well chosen, produces as good plantations as the more expensive plans of sowing in situ or of planting trees. The total costs of planting in the New Territory amount to about $54 per acre, whereas the costs of broadcast sowing are only about $5 per acre. Each method has to be adopted according to circum- stances, but in future broadcast sowing should receive special attention and planting should be reduced to narrow limits. This conclusion is the result of careful experiments and observations which I have made for some years past.

  50. During the past year the working plan sketched in 1899 has been extended by 11,800 trees being planted around Police Stations, two of them new ones, and 125,565 continuing the new road, the

latter composed of 17,407 trees planted, 98,158 trees reared in situ in. prepared soil and 10,000 reared from broadcast sowings.

  51. Eucalyptus and Malaria.-A great deal has been made at different times and places of the supposed benefits of planting Eucalyptus in malarious places, a theory which I have never been converted to and about which for many years I have spoken words of caution to those who pinned their faith to it. Last year the medical authorities here recommended the planting of Eucalyptus in selected places in the New Territory and in Hongkong and preparations were made for carrying out the recommendations and planting Eucalyptus this spring, although two of the places were, as I understand, under water and where, of course, nothing could be done until they were first filled in with soil but which work I believe is not yet done.

In connection with this subject I may quote what Professor ANGELO CELLI, an authority on malaria, said in his book "Malaria According to the New Researches," published in 1890. Writing of trees planted near Rome he says, at page 142: "The Eucalyptus planted round our railway stations "are now proved to be useless against malaria, if even they do not do more harm than good by har- "bouring the mosquitoes near the houses. Here outside the gates of the city, at Tre Fontane, an "intensely malarious spot, there is a fine wood of them, and in Australia there are enormous forests "of these trees and all are malarious."

And again, at page 234, he says: "That the planting of woods is not a protection against malaria "has been demonstrated by the example already recorded of the Tre Fontane, where in spite of the "Eucalyptus wood which has grown vigorously, this discase still remains."

In consideration of facts such as these, which were not altogether unknown before the publication of Professor CELLI'S book, I think caution should be exercised in adopting planting recommendations for the object of preventing malaria only.

The planting of Eucalyptus trees which has been done here was not intended any more than the plant- ing of the other trees as a preventative of malaria specially but they were in common with all tree-planting intended to act in other ways for the improvement and healthfulness of the districts.

  52. Fire Barriers.-Trees planted have been protected from fire as far as possible by making 4 miles of fire barriers 15 feet wide and re-clearing 1 mile 10 feet wide.

53. Conservancy.-No system of conservancy of trees which were in existence before the territory was taken over has yet been adopted, as the time has not yet arrived for taking action in this matter, but notes and information are being collected in preparation for what may seem advisable in due course. The Government is in possession of information connected with this subject and also of my views on the same to which there is no necessity for making further allusion here.

54. Estimates. I found that $8,000 had been placed on the Estimates of the Department for expenditure in the New Territory this year, but as this was in excess of present requirements and was based on a proposed plan of work which was unsatisfactory and included rearing trees by the more expensive system of sowing in situ instead of the effective and vastly less expensive system of sowing broadcast above referred to, I recommended its reduction to $3,000 which is ample for this year.

  55. I hope to be able during the next few months to submit a special Report on the Forestry pos- sibilities of the New Territory which will deal exhaustively with the whole subject both of conservancy and planting, and until that is carefully considered it is not advisable to extend work beyond the limits on which it has been conducted so far.

ECONOMIC GARDEN.

56. In C. S. O. No. 1,768 (1), dated 7th July, 1899, when dealing with the subject of the New Territory I suggested amongst other things the establishment of an Experimental Garden for the purpose of introducing and distributing amongst the cultivators plants of economic value which would be new to the territory. In 1900 this object was approved and money provided in the Estimates for carrying it out in 1901, when, during my absence, a site for the garden was selected and an attempt made to purchase the land, but the matter of ownership and the high price asked for the land caused a delay and the question was still open on my return in September, which, however, was quite early enough as the land could not have been dealt with satisfactorily at that time. On inspection I found the selected site unsuitable and recommended its abandonment, which was approved, and another site has been chosen which has all the advantages desired.

   This newly chosen site, which is accessible in one hour from Hongkong by launch, has also the advantage, which the other had not, of proximity to suitable hill land for experimental forest tree cultivation which can be conducted under the same economical management as the garden will have.

MOUNTAIN LODGE.

   57. The construction of a new summer residence at Victoria Peak for the Governor involved the re-laying out of the grounds there, and the extension of the lawns over the site occupied by the old building after its removal. I therefore recommended in C. S. O. No. 2,333, dated 18th September, 1899, that this work should be carried out and a sufficient sum of money be provided for the work, which was adopted. In last year's Estimates the money was provided, but works were not commenced until October, when, however, arrangements were immediately made for commencing work, and good progress was made up to the end of the year.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 4TH JULY, 1902.

KOWLOON PUBLIC RECREATION GROUND.

1221

58. In 1898, His Excellency the Governor, Sir H. A. BLAKE, G.C.M.G., foresaw the necessity of providing additional recreation grounds, and after discussion of the subject he requested me to submit a report on the most favourable site for a Park at Kowloon. This report was forwarded on January 12th, 1899-C. S. O. No. 120. It contained a recommendation for the formation of a large Park of about 90 acres of land, part of which was to be taken up by a new road that should open out on one side of it a large area of land that would be made available for building sites for a good class of houses. In the event of this scheme being considered too ambitious or of there being then insurmountable difficulties in carrying it out, I submitted an alternative plan which would allow of a Park of about 11 acres being made at first. This large scheme would necessitate the removal of Military, Navy and Police rifle ranges and the forfeiture or exchange of other Military interests.

     At the time there were difficulties in carrying out either scheme, but in the early part of 1900 the Honourable F. H. MAY, C.M.G., who was then Acting Colonial Secretary, brought up the subject for re-consideration, with the result that the lesser scheme was sanctioned.

     Changed conditions having made still greater claims for extended recreation grounds and the probabilities of their acquirement having become more hopeful I made a request in January of this year for a further re-consideration of the large scheme and it received the warm support of His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government-Sir WILLIAM J. GASCOIGNE, K.C.M.G. It is hoped, therefore, that during the present year a very large portion of the main scheme will be sanctioned* and that plans and arrangements for laying it out can be put in hand. This land would provide public golf links and lawns for tennis, bowling, foot-ball, croquet, &c., in combination with an ornamental Park.

     The Honourable J. H. STEWART LOCKHART, C.M.G., suggested at the first meeting of the Corona- tion Committee that this work should form a permanent Memorial of the Coronation of His Majesty Kind EDWARD VII and that the grounds should be named King's Park.

WESTERN DISTRICT PARK.

59. The upper portion of this land was laid out in 1898 by the Public Works and the Botanical and Afforestation Departments, the former making roads and re-distributing a large amount of soil, and the latter continuing soil re-arrangements and carrying out the turfing and planting. Part of the money for the work was provided by the Government and part by the owners of property in the district.

In response to a desire of residents in the neighbourhood the Government decided last

year to extend the work to the portion of land on the north side of Lower Richmond Road, and $10,000 for this purpose was included by this Department in the Estimates for 1902. This, however, I found was much in excess of what was necessary and the sum was consequently reduced to $5,000. The work will again be carried out jointly by the Public Works and the Botanical Departments, the former having the heaviest portion in hand.

     The maintenance of this Park, for which no additional sum of money has been provided, will rest with this Department and the expense will be defrayed by the Forestry Vote, which is sufficient for the purpose at present.

ELECTRIC LIGHTING OF THE BOTANIC GARDENS.

     60. In June of last year His Excellency Major-General Sir W. J. GASCOIGNE, K.C.M.G., communi- cated with His Excellency the Governor reporting an offer of Lieutenant-Colonel TEVERSHAM, to allow his Regimental Band to play on certain days in the Botanic Gardens for the benefit of the Public. In consequence of this it was decided to make provision for lighting the Gardens by electricity for which a sum of $800 was placed on the Estimates for this year. An examination of the proposed arrange- ments have, however, revealed some weak points which require further consideration and, if eventually adopted, perhaps certain modifications. In the meantime satisfactory arrangements can be made for lighting by other means.

Provided that, in the case of any interest acquired after the date of such publication, no separate estimate of the value thereof shall be made so as to increase the amount of compensation.

Any domestic building, or part of such building, which is occu- pied by members of more than one family shall, unless specially exempted by the Board, be cleansed and lime-washed throughout by the owner, to the satisfaction of the Board not less than twice in every year, namely, during the months of January and February and of July and August in the eastern division of the City and in the eastern division of Kowloon; during the months of March and April and of September and October in the central division of the City and in the western division of Kowloon; and during the months of May and June and of November and December in the western division in the City; and notice of such intended cleansing and lime-washing shall be sent to the secretary of the Board three clear days before the work is commenced.

NOTE. The western boundary of the eastern division of the City is Graham Street and Endicott Street; the western boundary of the central division of the City is Morrison and East Streets; the western division of the City lies to the west of Morrison and East Streets. Kowloon is divided into eastern and western divisions by Robinson Road and a straight line drawn from the north end thereof through the Yaumati service reservoir to the Northern boundary of Kowloon.

DRAINAGE.

Preliminary Explanatory Notes to Bye-Laws.

A. The following notes convey, in general terms, the principles that should guide the design and construction of house-drains. Before proceeding to lay down in detail the instructions which should be attended to, in order to apply the same satisfactorily, it must be observed that no code of instructions can possibly embrace every case that will occur. It must be remembered that no system of house-drainage that has yet been devised, or probably will ever be The real re- devised, does away with the necessity for care in use. medy for the inconveniences which are too often experienced from house-drains lies, not in any elaboration of appliances, but in careful construction, careful use, and a reasonably liberal water supply. Without the co-operation of the public, the Sanitary Authority is almost powerless to effect improvement. It is therefore to be hoped that the public will assist, by insisting on good construction and the proper use of house-drains.

B. The object of a house-drain is to carry off, from the dwelling to the street-sewer, water fouled by use, together with all the solid or semi-solid refuse which is usually associated therewith, such as refuse from cooking and the like; in short, the foul liquid usually known as sewage or sullage-water.

C. The house-drain must be self-cleansing." The sewage as produced in the daily life of the inmates must flow through the drain with a current sufficiently rapid to sweep along with it all suspend- ed matter, so that no permanent deposit can take place. A drain which deposit takes place is a cesspool in disguise, from which offensive emanations find their way into the dwelling; and from which putrid sewage flows into the street-sewers, making them ex- ceedingly offensive. A badly constructed or badly kept house-drain is, therefore, not only a source of danger to the inmates of the house Unless house-drains are that it drains, but a public nuisance also. well made and properly used, no system of street-sewers, however perfect, can work in a satisfactory manner.

D. Water being the agent which cleanses the house-drains, its liberal use by the inmates of the dwelling is essential to the proper maintenance of house-drains. The sewage must be well diluted. Nevertheless the quantity of water necessary for the proper cleansing of house-drains is not excessive. The water normally used by the inmates of a dwelling for washing and cooking is sufficient for this purpose, provided that it is readily obtainable at all times, either in the dwelling or in close proximity thereto.

E. The principal point to be attended to, in the design of house- drains, is so to arrange matters that the sewage, as produced, shall flow through them in the most rapid current practicable; so that all suspended matter shall be swept away at once and completely.

The speed of a stream flowing through a pipe or channel, of given size and shape, depends upon the following conditions: (a) The inclination of the channel. (b) The smoothness of its surface. (c) The volume of the stream.

The steeper the slope and the smoother the sides of the channel, the swifter will be the current. The greater the volume of the stream, inclination being the same, the greater the speed.

1324

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH JULY, 1902.

Thus if a 12" and a 3" pipe have the same inclination the velocity in the 12" pipe would be about twice as great as in the 3" pipe, pro- vided that both were half full. But to fill the two pipes to this extent, the quantity of water passing throngh the 12" pipe would be about thirty-two times that passing through the 3" pipe. But if the same quantity flowed through both pipes, then the current in the 3" pipe, being more concentrated, would flow more rapidly than that in the partially filled 12′′ pipe.

G. These considerations would lead to the conclusion that the best size, to be used for any house-drain, would be that which would just suffice to carry off the sewage with the pipe not less than half full. Within certain limitations, this is the case.

II. In the case of street-sewers draining large districts, from which the flow of sewage is comparatively regular and capable of estimation, the proper size of sewer may be calculated with some approach to precision. In the case of house-drains, however, such precision is impracticable. The rate of flow is irregular and the quantity of sewage depends upon the habits of the inmates. Were the size of a house-drain calculated to carry off even a most liberal water supply, which is, for practical purposes, the measure of the sewage, it would be found, in the vast majority of cases, to be much less than that which experience has shewn to be applicable in practice. It has been found that a house-drain less than a certain size is inconveniently liable to stoppages, caused by extraneous matters, such as rags, paper and the like, which occasionally find their way into the best managed house-drains.

1. The minimum size of house-drain is usually fixed at from four to six inches in diameter. A four-inch drain, constructed in the usual manner, is probably somewhat small as a minimum; and a six-inch somewhat large. A diameter of five inches, were this size readily obtainable, would be a better minimum.

J. Whenever the minimum size will suffice it should be used. Indeed, subject to the limit laid down in the preceding paragraph, and to certain conditions to be set forth later on, the smaller the house-drain the better. The use of unnecessarily large house-drains amounts to an abandonment of the self-cleansing principle. If a drain is so large that the normal flow of sewage cannot fill it to a sufficient depth to establish a self-cleansing velocity, deposit takes place and goes on, either till the pipe is choked and the sewage escapes, through leaks, to the sub-soil, or until the deposit has accumulated sufficiently to reduce the area of the sewage-way to that which will establish a current sufficiently rapid to prevent further deposit.

K. In order that the size of house-drains may be reduced to the minimum practicable, in each instance, rain-water should be ex- eluded from them as far as possible. Rain-water cannot, however, be wholly excluded from house-drains. Many uncovered surfaces. such as back-yards, receive slops and foul-water in the course of daily use and this must be carried off by the house-drains. A dupli- cate set of drains for such areas, one for sewage and the other for rain-water, would be a costly complication and there would be no security that each set would be used for its proper purpose only. Some sewage would almost inevitably find its way into the rain- water drain, which, being of large size, would be imperfectly flushed and therefore offensive.

L. Rain-water should be diverted from house-drains to the full extent that is possible by the use of surface-channels. As a general rule, when surface-channels cannot be used to divert rain-water, it must be admitted to the house-drain. Hence, in the majority of cases, the amount of rain-water to be carried off determines the size of the house-drain. In providing for the removal of rain-fall, from a given surface, it is to be remembered that it is not sufficient to provide a pipe of ample size to carry off the rain-fall. Traps and gratings must be provided in sufficient numbers and of sizes to admit the rain-water freely to the drain and the surface must have a fall to carry it to the openings. In many cases neglect of these precautions has caused flooding. This has been put down to the size of the pipes, whereas the inlets were really at fault.

Rain-water cannot be lookod upon as a legitimate agent for cleansing house-drains from deposit. Firstly, there should be no deposit to remove from well constructed and properly managed drains; and secondly, because there are long intervals in which no rain falls so that this flushing agent fails when most wanted.

inlet.

M. The irregularity and uncertainty of the flow of sewage, which precludes an accurate determination of size, makes it impracticable to calculate definitely the proper inclination of house-drains. Ex- perience shews that, under the normal conditions of use, an inclina- tion of one in thirty is desirable to ensure a self-cleansing drain; especially when the drain conveys the sewege from a single trap or An inclination of one in thirty, therefore, should. as a rule, be given to house-drains. Drains laid at much flatter gradients can be made to work perfectly, with care. provided that the flow of sewage is copious. i.e., sufficient to fill the pipe nearly half full. The designer of house-drains, having no control over their subsequent usage, will do well to give them, in every case, the greatest practic- able fall.

N. The ordinary "trap" or syphon is not a perfect preventive against the escape of sewage-tainted air from house-drains, although it is the only appliance available for the purpose. The water which seals the trap may evaporate during disuse, or a piece of fibrous matter may act like a syphon and draw off the water sufficiently to leave a free passage for the escape of sewage-tainted air. Again, if there be a series of inlets connected to a drain which is unprovided with any free outlets, a sudden rush of water through one trap will force the air contained in the drain through the other traps or unseal them by drawing off their contents, and open a passage for the escape of sewage-tainted air into the dwelling, or into some confined space in its neighbourhood. Consequently, house-drains must be "venti- lated," or rather provided with vents, to prevent the accumulation of sewage-tained air therein, and to secure the efficiency of the traps. To effect this thoroughly, the drain must have, at or near its extre-

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH JULY, 1902.

mities, openings giving a free escape to the air within it, and between these openings, there should be no trap or other obstruction to the free passage of air.

0. These ventilating openings should be so placed that any sewage- tainted air which may escape from them shall be as little offensive as possible. With this object the inner ventilating opening should be placed above the roof of the dwelling. This is usually done by carry- ing up a pipe, having a free opening at the top, above the roof and at a distance from any window. The second opening is usually made on the house-side of the trap which severs the direct communication between the drain and the public sewer. If, however, there be no trap between the house-drain and the sewer then there is no necessity for a second opening, the sower itself serving the purpose. With a well constructed system of self-cleansing street-sewers this arrangement may be adopted with safety, even with advantage. Then every house-drain ventilator serves as a sewer ventilator also; and when this is done universally, no accumulation of sewer-tainted air can take place in any part of the system.

P. Care must be taken in selecting the position of the lower ven- tilating opening because the clevatel ventilating pipe by no means secures a permanent upward current of air. According to the relative temperature of the air within and without the drain, to the direction and force of the wind, so an upward or downward current will obtain. Q. Complete ventilation is especially important when any part of the house-drain system is in communication with the interior of the dwelling; or where the system is extensive and has numerous inlets. It is essential where water-closets are used, or where the drains receive excrementitious matter. In the case of a short length of drain. leading from a single inlet, placed in an open space, such as a back-yard, though desirable, it is less necessary and may be omitted without serious danger.

R. Any direct communication between the interior of the house and the house-drain should be avoided. Pipes carrying water from baths or sinks, within the dwelling, should therefore deliver their effluent above trapped gulleys in the open air. The effluent from baths or sinks, on upper storeys should, whenever practicable, be received by open-topped pipes, delivering freely above trapped gulleys at or a little below the ground-level. If,s in the e:s of water-closets, a direct communication has to be made between a fitting inside the house and the drain, then there must be complete ventilation by means of a pipe carried up outside and to the top of the building.

Drainage Bye-laws.

1. Any owner or occupier of private premises about to construct, re-construct, alter or amend any drain shall give at least seven days' previous written notice of such intention to the Board, and such notice shall be delivered at the office of the Board, in a form of which printed blank copies may be obtained gratis in English and Chinese on application at the office of the Board, or, in the case of the villages, at any village Police Station between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

2. Every such notice shall specify the name of the street, the num- ber of the lot and the number of the house, if any, which it is intend- ed to drain, and shall be accompanied by a plan in duplicate of the premises drawn on a scale of not less than twenty feet to the inch, and such plan must show the whole of the drains with their pro- posed sizes figured thereon, and a section or sections showing the proposed falls or inclination and drawn to the same scale and to a vertical scale of not less than ten feet to the inch. The plan must also show the position and ecurse of all proposed surface gutters.

Except that in case of suburban lots which cannot be conveniently included within a plan of ordinary dimensions, the lot and the out- fall drain may be shown on a scale of not less than one hundred feet to the inch.

3. Within seven days after receipt of the notice, the sanitary surveyor shall, by means of a written communication, in English or Chinese as may be necessary, inform the person who has given the said notice whether his designs and proposed mode of construction are approved or disapproved, and in case of disapproval such modi- fications or improvements as may be requisite in order to comply with the provisions of The Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, and of any bye-laws made thereunder shall be indicated in detail to such person by the sanitary surveyor, and it shall not be lawful for such person to commence the drainage works until the approval thereof by the sanitary surveyor shall have been previously obtained by him, and in the case of such approval one copy of the deposited plan shall be returned to him, and the remaining copy shall be filed in the office of the sanitary surveyor.

NOTE. The approval of plans by the sanitary surveyor under this bye-law certifies simply to the fact that the plans are in accordance with the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance and with the bye-laws made thereunder, but signifies no approval of the sufficiency or otherwise of the plan and throws no responsibility on the Board.

4. Any person carrying out excavations for drainage works on any premises contiguous to a public thoroughfare, whereby the safety of the public may be jeopardized, shall light such excavations by means of a lantern or lanterns kept lighted through the night, and he shall further provide watchmen, erect hoardings and otherwise take such precautions as may be necessary for securing the safety of the public and the protection of adjoining properties.

5. House-drains shall be made of impervious materials with smooth internal surfaces, such as well glazed earthen-ware pipes or cast-iron pipes protected against rust or corrosion by suitable asphal- tic coating. The drains shall be so constructed as to be water and air-tight. In jointing pipes with cement, tarred-hemp shall be caulk- ed into the joint before the cement is applied, and care shall be taken that no cement or other jointing material projects from the joints into the interior of the pipes; and any such projecting material or other irregularities in the bore of the drain shall be carefully removed. 6. House-drains shall be firmly bedded in selected material free from large stones and well rammed into place.

7. All stoneware pipes shall be well glazed and free from cracks and flaws and shall have a thickness of not less than one-twelfth of their diameter.

8. Disconnecting chambers shall be red brick manholes fitted with stoneware traps and ventilating grates of iron or stone.

9. Lime mortar used for the building of manholes shall be com- posed of three parts of sand or red earth and one part of good lime.

10. Lime concrete used for encasing drains shall be composed of four parts of good sound clean stone, broken to half inch cubes, two parts of red or yellow earth and one part of lime thoroughly well mixed and well rammed into place.

II. Cement mortar used for the jointing of pipes or any other work shall be mixed in the proportions of three parts of clean sharp sand and one part of good Portland cement and used fresh.

12. No main house-drain shall be less than six inches in clear internal diameter.

13. Subject to the limitation mentioned in the preceding bye-law, no main house-drain shall be larger than is necessary in the opinion of the [sanitary surveyor to carry off the sewage of the dwelling, or the sewage with the rain-water, which, under conditions herein- after specified in Nos. 37, 38, 39 and 40 of these bye-laws shall be admitted to the house-drain.

14. Every house-drain shall have the maximum fall, throughout its length, that the relative levels of the public sewer and of the most remote inlet, will admit of:

Provided always--

(a) That the maximum available fall does not exceed one in thirty (or 4 inches in 10 feet). If it does, then the part of the drain, more remote from the public sewer, may be laid with a fall of one in thirty; and the remainder, with such greater fall as may be necessary to connect with the pub- lic sewer.

(b) That the excavation, necessary to obtain the maximum avail- able fall, is not of such a nature as to endanger the sta- bility of the adjoining or neighbouring property.

In these and similar cases the gradient may be reduced subject to the approval of the sanitary surveyor.

15. Whenever a reduction of fall (below the standard grade I in 30) is necessary or permissible, it shall, wherever practicable, be made in the portion of the drain nearest to the outlet, rather than in the part nearest to the inlet, and in the main trunk of the drain rather than in the branches.

NOTE. The available fall in a house-drain, 100 feet long, is 2 feet 6 inches or one in forty. It will be better to make the first thirty feet from the inlet, with a fall of I foot, or 1 in 30; and the remaining length of 70 feet with a fall of 1 in 46.66, than to give an uniform fall throughout.

It is clear that an obstruction at 4 would be more easily removed than one at B, in the pipe of uniform gradient, because it would have a greater head of water behind it; and in flowing from the inlet to it, the stream will have attained a certain momentum, tending to carry it on, through the flatter part of the pipe.

If the main-drain AB were given an uniform fall of 1 in 30, then would be 1 foot below B and D. and DC would have a fail of 1 in 40 omy. The proper course to pursue would be to give DC a fall of one in thirty, or 1′ 4′′ in all. AC would then have a fall of 1′4′′ în 30, or 1 in 223, and CB a fall of 1′ 8′′ in 60 feet; or one in thirty-six.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH JULY, 1902.

16. Whenever the gradient of any portion of a drain is less than one in thirty, the [Sanitary Commissioner may in his discretion re- quire an automatic flush tank or any other suitable contrivance for attaining an effective flush to be used.

17. All changes of direction in house-drains shall be made by means of properly curved pipes or by half channels in manholes and between the points at which any change of direction occurs, all house- drains shall be laid in straight lines and regular grades from point to point.

NOTE (Inasmuch as changes of direction are the points at which obstructions. most frequently cecur, and for the purpose of removing obstructions generally, house holders will do well to p avide, at each change of direction, a manhole, giving access to the drain. For this purpose the manhole should be made 2 fact by 1 foot 6 inches to the surfacorta depth of five feet above the drain. Beyond this depth the manhole may be narrowed to 1 foot 6 inches by 1 foot 6 inches. But such manhole should not be found in cook-houses or in paces where they may be op ned and used as receptacles for the disposal of solid rubbish.)

13. No drain shall be so constructed as to pass under any build- ing except when any other mode of construction is impracticable. Any drain passing under a building shall be of cast iron coated in- side with Dr. Angus Smith's patent composition or other material approved of by the sanitary surveyor and all such pipes shall be of a quality to be approved by the sanitary surveyor, and the joints shall be properly caulked and run with lead, and (unless the written permission of the Sanitary Commissioner has first been obtained to lay it otherwise) shall be laid in one straight line for the whole distance beneath such building, and shall be imbedded and incased throughout its entire length in four inches of good concrete.

Whenever a drain traverses soft or yielding ground, or where water may make its appearance in the trench, the drain shall be surrounded throughout its entire length with four inches of good concrete.

The stones composing the matrix of the concrete in both cases shall be of a size to pass through a half-inch ring.

19. No drain shall be constructed in such manner as to allow any inlet to such drain to be placed inside any building.

20. The aggregate area of the openings in any grating fixed on inlets to waste-pipes from baths or sinks shall not be less than four square inches and the waste-pipe shall not have a less internal dia- meter than 1 inches.

NOTE. The object of this is to see are an efficient flush.

21. Traps or gulleys for the removal of rain-water shall be pro- vided with gratings having the nett area of the openings not less than twice the area of the trap or pipe. Such gratings shall be sunk to a depth of at least one inch below the surrounding pavement, with a slope round them equal to half the width of the grating.

NOTE. It is not sufficient to provide pipes of ample diameter; there must be open- ings of sufficient size to admit the rain to them.

22. Traps at the inlets to drains shall be placed so that the water- level in them is not less than one foot below the ground, and such traps shall be placed as low down as the level of the house-drain or branch will permit of; provided that the depth be not more than two feet.

23. Traps shall have not less than two inches of water seal and shall be securely fixed to the drain. All stoneware traps shall be surrounded with a thickness of four inches of lime concrete.

24. No person shall construct or fix in connection with any drain or waste-pipe the form of trap of the kind known as the Bell- trap or any trap of the kind known as the D trap, and all traps connected with any private drains shall be properly jointed in cement mortar to the satisfaction of the sanitary surveyor.]

NOTE--Bell-traps and D traps from their form give rise to deposit of filth difficult to remove by flushing.

25. Every main house-drain shall be ventilated at its upper end by [carrying up an iron ventilating pipe of a diameter of not less than four inches to a height of not less than three feet above the eaves of the building, and clear of all windows, skylights or other openings. The joints of all such pipes shall be properly caulked and run with lead.]

26. Every main house-drain shall have a ventilating opening near to its lower end, and no trap or other obstruction to the free circula- tion of air shall exist between this opening and the one described in the preceding bye-law.

If there be a trap between the house-drain and the public sewer, then an opening hall be made on the house-side of the trap, and the said opening shall be so arranged as to give access to the trap for inspection, cleansing or repair.

If there be no trap between the public sewer and the house-drain no special opening need be provided at the lower end.

27. Drains leading from a single trap and not being more than sixty feet long, need not be provided with a ventilating pipe at their upper end unless such drains are laid, partly or wholly, under a building;] but, if this be omitted, they shall be provided with a trap, disconnecting them from the public sewer, and shall have a ventilating opening at the lower end on the house-side of the trap.

28. Rain-water pipes and waste-pipes from baths, sinks and other similar appliances on the upper floors of buildings shall be of cast iron socketted pipes jointed with cement, or wrought iron pipes, with screwed joints, coated with bituminous composition, or galvanised, or of well glazed stoneware socketted pipes, or other approved ma- terials, securely fixed outside the wall, [by means of wrought iron bands fitted round the pipe, or in the case of iron pipes by means of ears, made fast with wrought iron spikes not less than four inches long,] and provided, at each point of connection, with a suitable head, and at their lower extremity with a bend, shoe or pedestal pipe [and every opening in the wall of a building for the discharge of sullage water shall be provided with a fixed grating to the satisfaction of the sanitary surveyor.]

Provided that in the case of rain-water pipes and waste-pipes abut- ting on any street, cast or wrought iron pipes only shall be used, properly jointed as above described, (unless permission has been granted by the Board to use pipes of other material), and wherever

1327

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH JULY, 1902.

W

practicable rain-water pipes shall be carried under the foot-path and discharge into the side channel. All joints of stoneware pipes shall be made in the manner provided by No. 5 of these bye-laws.

Norɛ.-Zine, tin-plate, rivetted or lap-jointed sheet-iron will not be approved.

29. Waste-pipes, as well as down-pipes from roofs, shall not be connected direct with any drain but shall discharge in the open air near to or over a trap and they shall be brought down to within one foot or less from the ground.

30. No rain water-pipe from the roof of a building shall be used as a ventilating shaft to any drain which communicates or is designed to communicate with a public sewer.

NOTE. Rain-water pipes terininate at the eaves of the house a point not high enough above windows to be a safe ventilating outlet.

31. Any person who may have laid any drain or constructed drainage works connected therewith shall not cover up such drain or works until the same shall have been previously inspected and passed by the [sanitary surveyor] and such person shall give three clear days' written notice to the Board that such drain or works are ready for inspection, and such notice shall be delivered at the office of the Board in a form of which printed blank copies may be obtained gratis in English and Chinese on application at the office of the Board, or, in the case of villages, at any village Police Station between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

32. Before any drain is covered in, it shall be inspected and tested to ascertain whether it is water and air-tight; and no drain that fails in this respect shall be passed. After inspection, the earth shall be carefully filled in, above and around the drain, and thoroughly ram- med and consolidated. For a depth of at least six inches, above the summit of the sockets of the pipe, selected material, free from stones larger than will pass through a 2-inch ring, shall be used in filling in the trench.

33. The floors of cook-houses, stables, cow-sheds and the like, where practicable, shall be elevated above the ground outside the dwelling, and be provided with surface channels, passing out through the wall, and delivering above a trapped-gulley, outside.

               When new drains are being laid and where the floor is at the level of the ground outside, the surface-channel of the cook-house shall be connected to a trap, outside the house, by a straight open pipe, terminating above the water-level of the trap, which shall be accessible and in free com- munication with the air. Every such opening in the wall shall be provided with a fixed grating, at its upper end, to the satisfaction of the sanitary surveyor.]

34. All surfaces of back-yards and paved areas of premises wher- ever practicable shall have a fall, from the walls of the building towards the trap or inlet of the drain, at the rate of not less than half an inch to one foot, and such inlet shall be placed as far from the walls as practicable.

35. Open surfaces such as back-yards, court-yards or other spaces, on which slops are thrown, or from which foul waters flow, shall be provided with trapped connections to the house-drains, for the re- moval of such waters as well as some of the rain-water. But such surfaces shall be properly paved, in the manner prescribed for back- yards and cook-houses, so that no sand or silt may be washed into the drains from them.

36. Wherever an outlet is available, surface channels shall be provided to carry excessive rain-fall from premises, and these chan- nels shall be properly connected with the storm-water channel in the street. Traps not less than 4 inches in diameter in connection with the house-drain shall be placed in this surface channel, which will carry off slops or sewage, as well as some rain-fall.

37. Rain-water shall be diverted from house-drains by means of surface channels or otherwise to the fullest extent practicable.

38. The rain-water from roofs, which slope towards enclosed court-yards, or back-yards, may, if diversion to the surface channel is impracticable, be received into the house-drain. But no ventila- ting pipe shall be used for the conveyance of rain-water from the roof. 39. No person shall, where it can possibly be avoided, lay any pipe for conveying sub-soil drainage in such manner or in such posi- tion as to communicate direct with any sewer, cess-pool or drain used for the conveyance or reception of sewage.

Nora. It is important to exclude sewage-tainted air from the sub-soil.

The con- nection of sub-soil drains to sewers even if a trap is used is objectionable, because in dry weather the flow of the drain may cease and the water or the trap may dry up and leave a free communication between the sewer and the sub-soil drain. The object of sub-soil drainage is not only the removal of water, but the aeration of the sub-soil. The mouths of such drains therefore should be so placed that pure air can enter freely--a condition incompatible with direct connection with sewers or house- drains.

40. In every case where the course of a drain shall be diverted, any cesspool previously existing and into which such drain may have previously emptied, shall be cleansed, deodorized and filled with clean earth.

41. All drains, or drainage works, shall be built and carried out in all respects in accordance with the provisions of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance, and of these bye-laws and of any that may be made hereafter, and if no written notice as provided by No. 1 of these bye-laws shall have been given to the Board by any [owner or occupier about to construct, re-construct, alter or amend any drain on his premises, and if by such default the [sanitary surveyor] shall have had no opportunity of inspecting and approving or disap- proving of any such drain actually built and already covered in, it shall be lawful for the [Sanitary Commissioner on discovering the existence of such drain or drainage works to call upon the owner to open and uncover the same for the purpose of inspection, and should such drain or works prove upon inspection to be defective either in respect of design, workmanship or materials they shall be deemed a nuisance and dealt with as such. [Any owner or occupier who con- structs, re-constructs, alters or amends any drain without such written notice as aforesaid, shall be deemed to have contravened these bye-laws.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 11TH JULY, 1902.

42.

Objects and Reasons.

This Ordinance is intended to add to and consolidate and amend the existing laws on the subject of Cattle Diseases, Markets and Slaughter Houses, Milk, Crown Lands Re- sumption, Rats, Building and Sanitation generally. The Ordinance consolidates and amends a number of existing Ordinances and introduces some new matter from a Home Act (London Building Act of 1894). The Law in this Colony on the subject of Buildings commences with Ordi- nance 8 of 1856 (which was a very short one) and which was not repealed until 1889 (Ordinance 15 of 1889). It is perfectly clear therefore that many buildings in the Colony must have been erected in a most undesirable manner. Since 1889 numerous amending Ordinances have been passed with the intention of keeping up with the times. Plague came upon us in 1894 and the eyes of the public began to be opened to the grave defects in our building and sanitary systems. At last popular feeling got so strong that a petition numerously signed was sent home in 1901 and as a result Messrs. CHADWICK and SIMPSON were sent out to report on the condition of the Colony generally with a view to stamping out the plague or at any rate diminishing its fatal effects. The ultimate result of their labours has been the present Ordinance.

The main points provided for are :-

The better ventilation and consequently the better sanita- tion of buildings erected or to be erected, by preventing the excessive height of buildings, the insanitary construction of kitchens, the erection of cubicles and verandahs over footways and by the provision of better window space. Legislation is also introduced as to rats and as to the re- sumption of insanitary properties on payment of compen- sation.

DOWNING STREET,

27th August, 1897.

I have the honour to inform you that the Legislative Council of the Straits Settlements has adopted the following resolution, viz. :-"That from the 1st January, 1897, the pensions payable to Widows and Orphans, resident in a country with a gold standard, from the Widows and Orphans' Pension Fund of the Colony be paid through the Crown Agents at the rate of 3/- to the dollar, the difference between the amounts so reckoned and those payable out of the Fund (at the current rate of exchange) being made good by the Colonial Government."

2. The Government of Ceylon has adopted a similar rule, taking the Rupee at 1s. 6d.

3. I should be prepared to approve the adoption of a similar rule in Hongkong, if the Legislative Council would be willing to vote the money necessary for carry- ing out the proposal as an act of grace.

4. It should be understood that the official members of the Council should not vote on the question as it affects them personally.

The following Report of the Principal Civil Medical Officer, for the year 1901, is published. By Command,

1431

F. H. MAY. Colonial Secretary.

Colonial Secretary's Offer, Hongkong, 25th July, 1902.

MEDICAL DEPARTMENT, GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 15th April, 1902.

     SIR, I have the honour to submit, for the information of His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government, the following Report on the working of the Medical Department for the year 1901.

     I have to acknowledge my indebtedness to Dr. BELL for much of the information contained in this Report.

MEDICAL STAFF.

I returned from leave on August 4th, up to that date Dr. BELL had been acting as Principal Civil Medical Officer.

     Dr. J. A. Lowson returned from leave on the 26th of December last. I regret to say that he had on arrival to be admitted to Hospital, his health not having improved during his absence.

He has since been invalided from the service.

Dr. Lowson was first appointed to the Medical Department in 1889, from that date until March, 1894, he performed the duties of Assistant Superintendent of the Government Civil Hospital and Lunatic Asylums and took charge of the Hygeit when occasion required.

     During my first absence from the Colony on leave in 1894 the plague epidemic broke out, at this time he rendered yeoman service, sparing himself no labour or trouble in his efforts to combat this disease; his services at this anxious time will never be forgotten by the Colony, for these he was awarded the Plague Medal and received the thanks of the Government.

     When at home on leave in 1896 his services were requisitioned by the India Government as an expert to advise re plague administration in that country.

     It was during this work in India that his health broke down and he was under treatment in the Madras Hospital.

He returned to the Colony in 1898 and resumed his duties in the Department.

*

     In 1900 he was appointed Acting Principal Civil Medical Officer when I left the Colony for the second time on home leave, and in August of that year his health again gave way and lung trouble developing he was ordered by Prof. KOCH, who happened to be in the Colony, to South Africa, from there he proceeded to Australia.

     Since his return in December last he has improved considerably in health and he finally left the Colony for home on April 12th, undoubtedly his plague services here and in India have undermined his health and predisposed to the causation of the disease from which he is now suffering.

     I take this opportunity of bearing testimony to the able services rendered by this Officer since his appointment in 1889, his work has always been marked by great ability and his cheery presence will be missed not only at the Hospital but in the Colony generally.

     Dr. G. P. JORDAN left for a year's leave on the 15th March, arrangements having been made for Dr. SWAN to perform his duties as Health Officer of the Port, Dr. GIBSON acting as Deputy Health Officer.

Dr. J. C. THOMSON proceeded on three months' leave on the 31st of October.

      The services of Lieutenant STEWART of the Indian Medical Service were available until the 27th July, he ably assisted Dr. BELL in the work of the Hospital, and we are much indebted to the Military Authorities for granting us the services of this officer.

     We are also indebted to Dr. LAMORT, who was employed from the 1st June to the 31st July whilst Dr. THOMSON was on special duty at Kennedy Town Hospital, he again acted for him from the 1st November to the end of the year.

ANALYTICAL STAFF.

     Mr. F. BROWNE, Government Analyst, returned from leave on the 27th March, Mr. T. J. WILD returning to his duties as Assistant Analyst.

   The admissions to the Hospital were slightly in excess of those of last year, the number being 937 as compared with 920, the strength of the Force being somewhat greater, viz., 884 as against 866.

Malarial fever contributed 407 admissions as against 390 in 1900. There has been a marked diminution in the number of malarial fever cases from the Police Stations in the New Territory: on comparing Tables II for the two years we find that the nine Police Stations in the New Territory to the North of the range of hills bounding Kowloon give the following figures:-

   In other words there was a diminution in the percentage of malarial fever cases from 90 per cent. in 1900 to 52.5 per cent. in 1901.

   This was undoubtedly occasioned to a great extent by the active prophylactic treatment which was commenced on May 1st last year and continued up to the 1st of November: this treatment varied at the different Police Stations; at those marked * Kocn's method was used, one gramme of quinine being given daily for two days followed by an interval of five days without any quinine and so on; at those marked a daily dose of three or five grains of quinine was given; whereas at Au Tau ‡ grain of arsenious acid was given twice daily.

It must also be borne in mind that the Police were housed in permanent buildings in 1901.

     There were eight deaths during the year--four Europeans died of endo-carditis, typhoid fever, pneumonia and empyema, respectively. There were two deaths amongst the Indians from malarial fever, and two Chinamen died-one from beri-beri and the other from plague.

Sixteen were invalided, namdy, three Europeans, ten Indians and three Chinese, the causes being dysentery, phthisis (four), asthma, sprue, hemiplegia, dropsy, chronic rheumatism, beri-beri, sciatica, tuberculosis, chronic synovitis and debility (two).

TROOPS.

There was an increase in the number of admissions to the Hospital as compared with 1900. From Table IV it will be seen that the mortality amongst the European troops was less and that amongst the Indian troops was higher than in the previous year.

    The average daily rate of sickness was higher with in European and Indian troops, this being more marked in the latter.

Amongst the deaths in the British troops were two from enteric fever, two from bubonic plague and four from malarial fever, five dying of heat apoplexy.

GAOL STAFF.

    Eighty-one members of the Gaol staff were admitted to Hospital during the year out of a total staff of 93.

There were two deaths and four were invalided, the deaths were one European from malarial coma and one Indian from phthisis; the invalidings were three Indians from phthisis and one Chinaman from rheumatism.

There were thirty admissions as against fifteen in 1890. There were no deaths and none were in- valided.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL.

The total number of admissions to the Government Civil Hospital was 2,948 as against 3,030 in 1900, and 2,734 in 1899. The total number of out-patients was 12,663 as against 13,883 in 1899.

   It will be seen that there is a decided increase in the number of Government Servants admitted, a slight increase in the number of Police and a marked diminution in the number of free patients admitted; this was accounted for last year by the fact that it is impossible to admit many cases which attend as out-patients and who should be in-patients owing to the large increase in the number of sick Police and Government Servants admitted, these two classes of patients alone contributing 276 more than in 1899.

The rate of mortality for the year was 5.18 per cent.

The average daily number of sick was 111.72 as against 110.95.

Women and Children.-The number admitted was 281 as against 325. It is to be hoped that the Victoria Hospital for Women and Children will be ready for occupation this year, the intention is to treat most of these cases there, one ward only being retained at the Government Civil Hospital for urgent cases and for those who could not be removed so far.

NATIONALITY.

Europeans.-960 were admitted during the year as against 943 in 1900. Indians.-834 were admitted as compared with 788 in the previous year.

Asiatics.-1,154 were admitted during the year, the figures being 1,154 as against 1,299 in 1890.

Injuries of various kinds caused 29 deaths.

Dengue. There was an epidemic of this disease in the autumn months, thirty-two cases having been admitted to the Hospital. It was in all likelihood introduced from Singapore-cases at the com- mencement of the epidemic were mistaken for influenza but the initial and terminal skin eruptions quite distinguish it from this disease.

     On examining the peripheral blood a rod shaped bacillus with rounded ends was found, one or two parts of the bacillus staining darker than the rest.

     Attempts were made to obtain a growth on blood serum, gelatine agar and glycerine agar, but all failed with one exception.

     From this case, with a well marked secondary eruption, a growth was obtained on glycerine agar, this was inoculated into a guinea pig which died in eighteen hours, (probably from the cold weather) but from the spleen and heart of this guinea pig cultures were obtained which contained similar bacilli to those found in the blood.

Many cases were complicated with malaria.

     Enteric Fever-There were 25 cases under treatment with 8 deaths, 11 of these were imported cases and 3 occurred amongst members of the Police Force.

Cholera.-There were no cases suffering from this disease during the year.

Dysentery. There were 98 cases with 8 deaths.

Diphtheria.-Two cases were admitted, one had been ill for some days before admission and although tracheotomy was performed the patient succumbed, to all appearance she was progressing favourably when she died suddenly of heart failure; the second, who evidently contracted the disease from the first, recovered, he was brought in as soon as the disease appeared. Both were treated with antidiphtheritic

serum.

Beri-beri.-There were 41 cases under treatment, as against 29 in the previous year, with 4 deaths. Malarial Fever.-803 cases have been treated as against 674 last year, all were diagnosed by microscopical examination of the blood, and the results are:-

Malignant (Malignant Tertian) and Estivo-autumnal,

Tertian Simple,

Quartan Simple,

Mixed infection, .

.86.30%

8.21%

1.12%

4.35%

     Table XII gives the varieties met with during each month of the year. It will be seen that malaria prevails all the year round, but less in the dry winter months. This is probably due to the fact that we never get any long spell of cold weather, even in the coldest months hot summer-like days in- tervening.

Also it is rare that the hill streams completely dry up so that the mosquito never dies out.

CEREBRAL MALARIA OR MALARIAL COMA.

     Six cases of this nature were admitted with three deaths, in none was the temperature high, in other words this form of malarial infection does not at any rate here produce hyperpyrexia, the highest temperature being met with in those suffering from simple tertian.

APYREXIAL FORMS OF MALARIA.

     These are difficult to explain on the theory that it is the liberation of the toxins when the spores sporulate which produces fever

     We had at least six cases during the year, where malarial parasites were found in the blood, but there was no rise of temperature, three of the six were suffering from the malignant type, one had mixed infection, simple tertian as well as the malignant, and there were also two cases in which quart- an parasites were present without any fever, in one of these two the parasites were sporulating.

     Malaria seems to complicate most of the diseases met with here. This is not to be wondered at when it is remembered that nearly every one contracts malarial fever and it is an undoubted fact that given one attack of malarial fever any illness or injury which reduces the vitality of the patient predisposes

1436

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

to a return of the malarial parasites in the blood, .g., during the year nearly every patient's blood was examined microscopically, and Dr. BELL found the following results:---

Dysentery. Out of 101 cases 66 showed the presence of malarial parasites.

Phthisis. Out of 68, parasites were found in 35 cases, in many cases of phthisis the fever is malarial as on the administration of quinine, it frequently subsided.

Enteric Fever.-13 out of 25 gave malarial parasites.

Liver Abscess-3 out of the 6 cases showed the presence of malarial parasites.

Dr. BELL has fully discussed this subject in a report on malaria written last summer in which he

has given the results of the experience of himself and Lieutenant STEWART, I.M.S.

   Liver Abscess.-6 cases were treated during the year with no deaths, three were operated on success- fully, two burst into the lung and recovered, the diagnosis being made from the history and the presence in the sputum of hepatic cells.

Appendicitis.-There were 7 cases as against 6 last year, one only was operated on, they all

recovered.

Tetanus.--2 cases occurred, both proved fatal. Antitetanic serum obtained from the Pasteur Institute at Paris was used in the first case and seemed to modify the spasm. In the second case the

 man was knocked down by a heavy sea on the voyage between Singapore and Hongkong and sustained a compound fracture of the right thigh. The limb was amputated and it was observed just before the operation that there was some slight trismus, tetanus rapidly developed after the operation, tetanus bacilli were found in the wounds, this case is returned in Table under injuries.

used.

Bullet Wounds. There were not so many as usual, 9 only being admitted as against 18 in 1900. Poisoning. There were only 2 cases during the year, in both opium was the poisonous agent

Surgical Operations.-There were not so many as usual during the year, the numbers being 188 as against 225 in 1900. We had to treat many more malarial fever cases in the surgical wards than

is generally the case.

Lithotomy.-3 cases, all successful.

   Buildings.-A scheme for fitting the Hospital with electric light has been drawn up during the year, the necessary expenditure has been sanctioned, and before next summer it is expected that this will be installed.

A new operating theatre is very much required.

LUNATIC ASYLUMS.

   Tables IX and X show the admissions and deaths that have occurred during the year and the disease for which the patients were admitted. There were nineteen less admissions than in 1890. A report on the working of the Asylum is attached.

     Room for outdoor exercise has been obtained by enclosing the vacant ground to the South of the European Asylum..

Staff-Wardmaster LEE proceeded home on leave.

MATERNITY HOSPITAL.

Table XI gives the admissions and deaths in the Hospital during each month of the year, there were 54 admissions, the same number as in 1900.

     The two fatal cases were Chinese, one came in with retained placerta and died of septicæmia, the other died from malarial coma (see note of the case in the Appendix).

Eleven were wives of Government Servants, 27 private paying, and 16 free.

PRIVATE NURSING INSTITUTE.

The term of engagement of the private nurses having terminated in May the Government decided to discontinue their services.

     "Stowford."-Stowford is still rented in order to find accommodation for three of the Sisters and the two probationers. It is to be hoped that the much needed extension of the Nursing Quarters will soon become practicable.

TUNG WAH HOSPITAL.

There were 21 less cases treated than in the previous year.

It will be noticed also that the number of those under so-called Western treatment has not in- creased but diminished, e. g. :-

1900, 1901,

Western Treatment.

..32 %% ..30.4 %

Chinese Treatment. 57.7 %

69.6%

It must also be remembered that those attending the out-patient department are not seen by the European doctors but by the so-called Native doctors.

PUBLIC MORTUARY.

An interesting report by Dr. BELL on the post mortem examinations during the year is attached. Two thousand two hundred and fifty (2,250) bodies were brought to the Mortuary as against 1,702 in 1900.

In 1,035 of these plague was the cause of death and as is pointed out 36.6% occurred in bodies found in the streets or harbour whose addresses were unknown and I agree with Dr. BELL that some radical measure must be taken to stop this surreptitious deposition of plague bodies in the streets.

KENNEDY TOWN INFECTIOUS HOSPITAL.

    The building has been thoroughly painted and colour-washed throughout and the verandahs on the top floor enclosed with iron railings.

    Two hundred and sixty-seven (267) patients in all were treated during the year, 42 being cases of small-pox, 15 cholera, which all came in February from Bangkok by the s.s. Cheung Chau, and 204 were suffering from plague.

The report of the visiting medical officer is attached.

    Evidently the presence of plague bacilli in the blood of those affected must vary in different epidemics as in 1896; in 81% of the cases plague bacilli were found and this by such an experienced bacteriologist as Dr. WILM.

1438

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

As it appears evident that this Hospital will be required yearly for plague patients, a permanent nursing staff was requisitioned for from home consisting of two Nursing Sisters and two Wardmasters, this is a much better arrangement than being dependent on the Military, and any nurses we can obtain for extra help in epidemic times, the services of these officers are utilised in the other Hospitals of the department when not required at Kennedy Town Hospital.

Another Assistant Surgeon has been obtained from England so that there can, in future, be a resid- ent medical officer at Kennedy Town Hospital during epidemic times-a much needed requirement.

HOSPITAL HULK "HYGEIA."

   This ship was improved during the year by fixing more skylights on the floor of the upper deck, by this means the lower deck is better lighted; arrangements were made for improving the ventilation of the lower deck.

VACCINE INSTITUTE.

The Vaccine Institute has been satisfactorily maintained, Dr. CLARK taking over charge when the Colonial Veterinary Surgeon left on leave.

The lymph has given every satisfaction.

The amount paid into the Bank for the sale of lymph was $263.00.

ANTI-MALARIAL MEASURES.

During the year much has been done in combating mosquitoes.

   In February a systematic filling up and draining of the pools in the nullahs at Kennedy Town near the old Tung Wah Mortuary, adjoining Nethersole Hospital and in the neighbourhood of the Upper Richmond Road, was instituted.

   A supply of Professor CELLI's larvicides was obtained in May, these were extensively used in the ravines in the neighbourhood of the Richmond Estate at West Point during the summer months; the results were not altogether satisfactory as anopheles larvæ were found in pools in which they had been applied; it is just possible that these were not used in sufficiently large quantities.

   It was proved that they were not so effective as kerosene in killing the larva, the drawback to kerosene is that it destroys the potability of the water to which it is applied whereas Professor CELLI'S larvicides do not impure the water.

   I fear it is a hopeless task to endeavour to keep the untrained nullahs free of pools especially in the rainy season when malarial fever is rife, the nullah beds, owing to the rains and weathering effects of the atmostphere, are continually changing, fresh pools being formed from day to day.

The only effectual remedy is to train the nullahs; this however is a very expensive operation, e.q., it would cost $10 for a lineal foot for the larger nullahs and $8 per foot for the smaller ones, on this basis training the nullahs to the West of the Richmond Estate would cost $15,000.

   Much, I understand, has been done in the way of training nullahs in the neighbourhood of the houses within the built area of the City, but to train all the nullahs on the outskirts of the City is a formidable task, and it is for Government to determine whether this extensive operation should be undertaken.

In a flat country it is comparatively easy to get rid of these pests but in a mountainous island like this it is quite another matter.

There are so many fissures and natural excavations along the hillsides where mosquitoes breed in large numbers that I doubt myself whether, even if the nullahs were trained, it would be practicable to exterminate these insects; however it would certainly diminish their numbers.

   In October last I carried on some experiments with the help of Inspector WATSON, in order to ascertain which oils, etc., were most destructive to the larvæ. We experimented with the following mineral oils :--

Snowflake. Comet.

300° mineral Colza and Jeye's fluid.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

1439

     The results were as follows: Shorryl de.--On adding one teaspoonful to 13 gallons of water in a circular vessel teeming with larvae, we found that they were all dead in two hours.

Comet.---Under the same conditions no larvæ were dead in two hours, although they were much less active, in 10 hours they were all dead.

      300° Mineral Co'z -A few of the larvae were dead in two hours, several alive after 24 hours. On adding a tablespoonful instead of a teaspoonful to the water, the following results were obtained :-

Snowflake. All the larva were dead in ten minutes.

Comet. About same effect as a teaspoonful of Snowflake.

Colza. A number alive after six hours.

Snowflake is much more destructive than Comet, it also spreads more rapidly on the surface of the water; with the Colza the oil does not spread so well on the water.

One tablespoonful of Snowflake was tried in a water run round a cress bed and all the larvæ sank

within 5 minutes.

     In stagnant water Jeye's fluid is by far the most effectual larvicide, one teaspoonful to 13 gallons of water with the same surface as was used before killed the larva in 2 minutes.

     Twenty drops in the same quantity of water killed them all in six hours, it also has this effect that it kills all the larva in the water whereas the oils only kill those on the surface, it is useless in running water as it mixes with it and does not float on the surfaces.

To show the difficulty there is in ridding certain neighbourhoods of this Colony of anopheles I would refer to the extensive operations carried on in the spring of last year at the Military sanatorium, Magazine Gap, at the suggestion of Dr. YOUNG, a Civil Medical Officer attached to the China Expedi- tionary Force, to free this place of malarial fever.

     Two hundred men of the Indian Regiment were detailed to carry out the necessary work under Dr. YOUNG's supervision, the hills were cleared for a distance of 300 yards of all brushwood and under- growth, several bogs were drained and the anopheles pools in the nullah were filled up.

Notwithstanding all these measures, however, fever was so prevalent there in the autumn months that the station had to be vacated by the Troops.

NEW TERRITORY.

     Dr. Ho NAI HOP has continued to reside at Tai Po and has performed the duties of Resident Medical Officer in the New Territory, the distances he has to travel are very great and it is practically impossible for him to do justice to the large resident population there, the question of appointing another medical officer to reside in the West of the New Territory say somewhere in the Shap-Pat- Heung Valley will soon have to be considered. I attach the annual report on the work of the medical department in the New Territory.

In an Appendix I give a report by Dr. THOMSON regarding the mosquitoes which occur in the Colony of Hongkong, this has entailed an immense amount of labour and has, as was to be expect- ed, confirmed the fact that where malarial fever is rife there anopheles abound.

In Appendix A is given the notes of several cases of interest which have occurred in the Hospital

during the year.

Appendix B contains the report by Dr. THOMSON, already referred to, regarding the mosquitoes that occur in the Colony of Hongkong.

Attached are the reports of:-

1. The Medical Officer to the Lunatic Asylums.

2. The Medical Officer in charge of the Public Mortuary.

3. The Medical Officer in charge of the Infectious Diseases Hospital.

4. The Medical Officer to Victoria Gaol.

5. The Medical Officer to the Tung Wah Hospital.

6. The working of the Medical Department in the New Territory during 1901.

7. The Report of the Government Analyst.

In conclusion my thanks are due to the several members of the staff for their assistance rendered during the past year, and I take this opportunity of thanking all those who in the past year have remembered the patients by forwarding them flowers, books, periodicals, &c.

I have the honour to be,

Appendix.

HEPATIC ABSCESS DUE TO MALARIA-OPERATION-RECOVERY.

   An officer of the Garrison was admitted to hospital on the 7th December suffering from fever of 3 days' duration. The patient was a strong young man with only 3 months' foreign service, all in this Colony. He had never had dysentery or malaria before and was a very absterious person.

His tongue was furred, temperature 103.4 with enlargement and tenderness of the liver. Blood slide showed numerous malignant quotidian parasites. Under quinine in various forms and doses and saline purgative he improved somewhat, the chart however being very irregular 100 to 101 or 104, occasionally normal all day and parasites being sometimes present (4th. 13th, 22nd February and 8th March) and at other times absent (12th, 18th, 19th and 24th January and 25th February). The liver dulness diminished considerably but still remained enlarged somewhat and tender in one spot. On the 28th Febuary an exploratory puncture showed the presence of pus and the usual operation was performed. After the operation the temperature still kept up in an irregular manner rising to 100.8 or 103 in the evening- a small piece of necrosed rib was removed and on the 1st April the temperature fell to normal and kept so throughout. The patient began to mend and put on weight and left for home on the 1st May with a small sinus still discharging.

Remarks.-The cause of the liver abscess seems to have been the malaria which was very obstinate notwithstanding frequent and large doses of quinine. The presence of parasites in the blood was rather puzzling and took one's attention off the hepatic condition.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25ти JULY, 1902.

PYO NEPHROSIS DUE TO CALCULUS-WITHOUT PAIN OR FEVER.

1445

     A Germ in aged 55, was a lmittel on the 21st of December. Patient looked ill and seemed much older than the age he gave.

               He stated that he had been suffering from dysentery in Manila and had come over to get stronger. His stools were liquid and bilestained and were about 5 or 6 a day and this diarrhoea throughout was quite unaffected by treatment.

His bloo! showed no malaria and he com- plained of no pain anywhere throughout the illness. His temperature varied between 96 and 98.4 during his illness. His urine was examined on several occasions and was always normal save on the last occasion, 6 days before death, when "a faint trace of albumin" was reported. He slowly became more and more drowsy but was easily roused for his food and medicine. His lips and mouth were frequently covered with thrush. He passed his motions in bed throughout. Towards the end he became delirions and very irritable. The case was seen by several medical men and the diagnosis of auto-intoxication confirmed, the absorption probably taking place from an old dysenteric ulcer. The treatment consisted in liquid diet, stimulants and various antiseptics. He diel on 17th February.

Post mortem.-Intestines much atrophied but no signs of dysentery. Liver cirrhotic. Heart and lungs normal. Right kidney enlarged and lobulate:1, Left kidney had a small stone firmly blocking the ureter, pelvis dilated and full of pus, the abscess cavity extending into the substance of the kidney.

MALARIAL COLITIS SIMULATING APPENDICITIS-Recovery.

A German soldier was brought to hospital by his medical attendant to be operated on for appendicitis on the 2nd April. He had been ill for three days with constipation, fever (102), furred tongue and offensive breath. The abdomen was very tympanitic and tender more especially over McBurney's point. His bowels had not acted for four days, his temperature was 102.4, pulse 110. On the following day he was still very tympanitic and tender and the least pressure in the neighbour hood of the appendix elicited much pain. There was frequent vomiting and dulness in both flanks. His temperature was 101.4 and a blood slide showed numerous non-pigmented ring-formed parasites (malignant quotidian). After several doses of saturated solution of magnesium sulphate the bowels acted copiously and the stools were full of jelly like" material. Under quinine grs. 5 every 4 hours and saline purgatives he slowly improved, vomiting ceased, tongue cleaned and the distension and tenderness disappeared and the temperature became intermittent 99 in the morning and 101 in the evening. The quinine was reduced to 5 grains terdie but in 48 hours the symptoms recurred, pain more especially in R. iliac fossa extending to the region of the bladder and the stools were again full of 'jelly like" mucus. The quinine was ordered to be given every 3 hours, hot fomentations applied to the abdomen and a quiniue enema (30 grains) given every night. In 48 hours the patient was much improved and the temperature fell to normal and remained so. the R. iliac fossa continued for some few days but eventually cleared up. Patient was discharged quite well on the 1st May.

Dulness and a sense of resistance in

GENERAL PARALYSIS OF THE INSANE-RECOVERY AFTER THREE YEARS.

    A German sailor was admitted to the Asylum from the Gaol on 9th April, 1898. He had been several times in Gaol for petty thefts (kleptomania) and on the last occasion the Medical Officer considering he was "silly" transferred him to the Asylum. For several months he was under obser- vation without any definite symptoms save that he was decidedly silly, laughing constantly and for no apparent reason, &c. He was sent to a general ward in the Civil Hospital where in a day or two com- plaints were made, by the other patients, of his stealing all and everything he could find and hiding them away, sitting up all night writing (the writing being unconnected and mostly rubbish), patting on several suits of clothes, &c. On re-admission to the Asylum he rapidly became worse, noisy and violent and full of delusions, His ideas were all of an extravagant type. He was at times Emperor of Germany, Queen of England, President U.S.A.. &c., owned stores and stores of money, millions of ships, &c.

       He required a bullock for each meal, barrels of beer and 1,000 of cig ass, This stage lasted for a long time and for over two years he was the noisest lunatic we have ever had, incessantly talking and shouting and hardly ever sleeping. He became very dirty in his habits and very troublesome as he had a delusion the walls and floors were covered with arsenic and it was his business to clean them with his head and mouth and it was extremely difficult to prevent him doing this. At times he ceased to be violent and noisy and was extremely liberal to his attendants, giving them gold, silver, jewels and ships, &c. His pupils were unequal and presented the A-R bertson phenomenon. No history of syphilis was obtainable though on the chance he occasionally had Iodide of Potassium but as he resented any medicine under the impression they were poison, it was not persisted in. His weight fell from 162 lbs. to 124 lbs. but he slowly regained it towards the end and weighed 172 lbs. when he left. Slowly his violent attacks diminished in frequency, his appetite returned, and his delusions ceased to be marked up to 11th November, 1900, when he had a series of fits of an epileptic nature with a very feeble pulse. After this the cure became more rapid and more marked so that in July he was allowed out daily and went round visiting his friends, the Consul, &c. and returning daily to the Asylum. He left on August 22nd, 1901, for Germany looking well and apparently free from all delusions.

Remarks.-A cure from this disease being very rare, the case is recorded. There was no doubt of the diagnosis as he was seen by several medical men who all agreed as to the nature of the illness,

1446

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

The improvement was so gradual and so marked that one is justified in looking upon it as a cure and

not a remission.

MALIGNANT MALARIA WITH OBSTRUCTIVE JAUNDICE.

A European sailor from a coasting steamer was admitted on 28th June.

                                     His temperature was 100, conjunctive jaundiced, left lobe of liver very tender and constant vomiting, a blood slide showed numerous malignant quotidian parasites. The jaundice became rapidly general and the vomiting very persistent, under hypodermics of morphia the latter symptom subsided but the patient became delirious and rapidly sank, dying on the 2nd July. The temperature was normal in the morning and 104 in the evening of 29th, normal all day 30th, 105 in the morning and 102 in the evening of 1st.

Post mortem.-Jaundice deeply marked all over. Gall bladder slighly distended but no obstruction could be made out. Brain congested and excess of fluid. Spleen enlarged and soft. Smear from this organ teemed with malarial parasites.

CHRONIC PANCREATITIS

JAUNDICE-DEATH.

An engineer was admitted from a steamer on the 30th May, 1901, deeply jaundiced and dying. The only history obtainable was that he had had jaundice for over a year but had been doing his duty up to a few days before his admission. He was deeply jaundiced all over, temperature 101, quick almost uncountable pulse and great dyspnoea. He was put to bed and given stimulants but died a few hours after, passing a large tarry stool just before death.

   Post mortem,--Gall bladder was much distended and full of bile, intestines full of blood. Pancreas very much enlarged and hard being about double the average size and weighing eight ounces. The head was firmly adherent to the common bile duct and intestines. Section of pancreas was stained and

showed a large increase in the connective tissue but no recent haemorrhages.

MALARIA COMA-PREMATURE BIRTH-DEATH.

   A Chinese prisoner in about the 8th month of pregnancy was suddenly scized with a fit at the Gaol on 1st June, 1901. When seen she was quite unconscious, with contracted pupils, deep stertorous breathing, insensitive conjunctivæ and small feeble pulse. Under the idea she was suffering from uræmia she was transferred to the Maternity Hospital. On arrival she was in much the same condition, temperature 100, and passing her urine unconsciously. By means of a catheter a specimen was obtained-1015, acid, trace of albumen-3.3% urea. The following day she was slightly better and could be roused by loud shouting and tried to do what she was told (put out tongue, &c.). The urine contained albumen with blood corpuscles and blood casts. Labour came off naturally, the child, however, being dead. On the 3rd the temperature was 103, urine normal, patient again more uncon- scious-a blood slide showed large numbers of malignant quotidian parasites. Ten grains of quinine hypodermically were given night and morning but without any drop in the temperature which on the 4th went up to 106.8. As the patient was quite unconscious and evidently sinking, lumbar puncture was performed and the tube left in for 48 hours. Under ice packing the temperature fell to normal at mid-night. The blood next morning was still full of malaria though the patient was much better and more easily roused. The quinine was increased to 15 grains twice daily hypodermically and a mixture of Tinet Ferri mXV and Quinine gr. II given every two hours. The patient, however, slowly became more unconscious, the temperature ranging between 101 and 105 till the 7th when she died, temperature 106. Throughout urine and faces were passed unconsciously.

Liver cirrhotic,

   Post mortem.-Heart and lungs normal save for some old adhesions at right base. 23 lbs., kidneys normal but much congested, spleen 5 oz., brain soft and congested but no increase in the fluid either at base or in ventricles, blood smear from spleen teemed with parasites.

INTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION DUE TO STRICTURE OF RECTUM.

   A married European female, aged 31, was admitted to hospital on August 21st. She was quite well up to the 20th, when she was seen by a medical man who prescribed a pill (Pil Hydrarg grs. III. Pil Coloc Co. grs. IV.) for vague abdominal pain and vomiting. On admission her temperature was 102.4, with furred tongue, tympanitis and tenderness all over the abdomen, but more especially in the right iliac region, malignant malarial parasites were found in the blood. Her previous medical history was good though there was a history of an attack of dysentery in 1895 but no abdominal trou- ble since. The vomiting continued throughout, the rejected matter consisting of green "spinach like material and never feculent. Bowels did not respond to enemata, salines or small repeated doses of calomel. On 24th she was examined under chloroform but nothing definite could be found to account for the symptoms. There was no dulness in the right iliac fossa and nothing was felt per rectum. 25th her condition was the same and as the tympanitis was distressing and the vomiting continued a small trocar was inserted into the intestines and a quantity of fœtid gas escaped with a certain amount of relief. On 26th, as her condition was decidely worse laparotomy was performed. The intestines were much congested and distended, there was no appendicitis and no cause was found to account for the distension. She slowly sank and died the same day.

Post mortem.-No peritonitis or appendicitis. Intense enteritis. Intense enteritis.

On

The whole of the small intestine

and the large intestine as far as the sigmoid flexure were distended and at the lower end of the sigmoid flexure a stricture was found, the intestine being contracted to the size of a goose-quill. On cutting through this constriction it was found to be due to the cicatrisation of a dysenteric ulcer with thick- ened and indurated edges. There was no tubercular disease anywhere.

Remarks. The case is interesting on account of the obscurity of the cause of all the abdominal symptoms. The temperature was accounted for to a certain extent by the presence of malarial parasites (malignant tertian) in the blood. Although the patient was a delicate woman her condition could hardly be attributed to the aperient she had taken. The puncture of the intestine with the smallest trocar in Potain's aspirating case afforded relief and did not induce the slightest local inflammatory trouble.

HEPATIC ABSCESS OPERATION FOLLOWED BY GUMMA OF THE LIVER-RECOVERY.

     A French sailor, 42 years of age, was admitted on June 7th, having been ill 15 days with fever. His temperature on admission was 101°, liver much enlarged with distinct fluctuation in front. The abscess was opened, the walls stitched to the skin and a tube inserted. It healed rapidly but the tempe- rature still ran an intermittent course, being normal in the morning and 102 or 103 in the evening. On the 13th, malignant parasites were found in the blood and 5 grains of quinine given every four hours. This brought the fever down to normal in a few days and he soon put on weight and was waiting for a passage home when on July 29th the temperature again rose with parasites in his blood (after he had been out on leave for the first time). There was also a distinct tumour of the liver below the ribs which was hard and not tender on pressure. Notwithstanding quinine every 3 or 4 hours the temperature still continued an irregular course, rising to 100° and occasionally to 103° in the even- ing. On August 11th, he was aspirated but no pus found. A distinct specific history having been obtained he was put on Potass Iodid grs. xv terdie. The temperature almost immediately fell to normal and continued to, and the swelling slowly but markedly disappeared. He left for Europe on 9th September looking and feeling well, his weight having risen from 8st. to 8st. 7lbs. and without any trace of hepatic enlargement.

INTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION DUE TO PLAGUE-DEATH.

An English boy aged 11 was admitted to hospital on the 9th September. He had been taken ill two days previously with a sharp pain in the abdomen for which a dose of castor oil was prescribed which however only set up vomiting immediately after being taken. On admission his temperature was 102°, foul tongue and pain in abdomen, chiefly in right iliac fossa where there was a distinct sense of resistance on pressure. His temperature continued between 102 and 104 till the 11th, with great abdominal distension and pain. On this day a papular eruption was seen chiefly on forehead and back of ears.

In the evening slight delirium was noticed for the first time. On the 12th the condition was much the same with frequent vomiting (bile and blood), very foetid breath, epistaxis and abdominal distension, and from this onwards no further action of the bowels occurred. There was dulness in both flanks. The stools were liquid and bile-stained. There was distinct tenderness and dulness in the right iliac fossa where a distinct tumour could now be felt. In the evening the enema contained only a trace of fæces. The morning temperature was 100° and a few malignant malarial parasites were found in the blood. The evening temperature was 101.8 and the pulse varied between 88 and 92. The case became slowly worse, pulse 120 to 130, vomiting, constipation and great distension, and a trace (5) of albumen in the urine till the 14th-8th day of illness-when the temperature rose to 105, and the patient succumbed.

     Post mortem.-Small intestine normal. Spleen hard and firm. No appendicitis. Large intestine (cœcum) swollen with hæmorrhagic extravasation into the walls for about 3 inches causing almost complete obstruction. Mesenteric glands swollen and hæmorrhagic. Retroperitoneal extravasation well marked. Slight amount of bloody fluid in abdominal cavity. Spleen and glands full of typical plague bacilli, a culture of which was injected into a guinea pig and produced death with plague bacilli in internal organs.

     Remarks.-No idea of plague was ever thought of in diagnosing this case which was looked upon at first as being one of malarial colitis or appendicitis, and the patient was treated accordingly with saline purges and hypodermics of quinine. Fortunately for various reasons no operation was attempted. Authorities on plague mention the possibility of mistaking the disease for appendicitis but such a case as this is worth recording owing to the very definite tumour and complete obstruction produced.

COMPOUND FRACTURE OF FEMUR-AMPUTATION-DEATH FROM TETANUS,

A European sailor was knocked down by a heavy sea on the 10th December and sustained a compound comminuted fracture of the lower end of the right femur. On arrival here, six days after the accident, the man was brought to hospital. The wound was thoroughly cleaned, some jagged ends of bone removed and an endeavour made to save the limb. As the temperature chart pointed to septic infection, amputation was decided upon, and assisted by Staff Surgeon NOLAN, R. N., and Surgeon WALLIS, R. N., at 11 a.m. on the 20th, the limb was removed. Just previous to the operation the patient complained of stiffness in the jaw muscles and inability to open his mouth. To our regret smears taken from three places in the wound showed tetanus bacilli. The patient stood the shock fairy well and at 1 p.m. was conscious, the spasms short and frequent, and the pulse fairly strong. At 4 p.m. he had a severe spasm which almost raised him off the bed, and died suddenly.

Remarks.-The extreme rarity of tetanus following operations here makes this case worth record- ing. It is extremely difficult to account for his having been infected on board a ship as the bacillus is generally looked upon as an earth germ and the steamer had not been carrying manure, horses or other animals as cargo. Immediately after the injury everything seems to have been done to keep the wound clean and the limb at rest by means of Carbolic lotion and an improvised splint.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

REPORT REGARDING THE MOSQUITOES THAT OCCUR IN THE COLONY OF HONGKONG.

HONGKONG, 15th February, 1902.

   SIR--I have the honour to submit, for purposes of the Annual Medical Report, the results of a systematic examination and classification of the mosquitoes that prevail in Hongkong and its Depend- encies, on which I was engaged during the twelve months ending 30th September, 1901.

                                                    For somə months previous to September, 1900, I was working at the subject as I had opportunity, but

my field of observation was limited to the Colony itself until in that month the Honourable F. H. MAY, C.M.G.. Captain Superintendent of Police, kindly consented to my proposal that I should be supplied with at least one dozen mosquitoes from each of the Police Stations throughout Hongkong itself and the New Territory once a week for a year. As the Police Stations are approximately equally scattered over the whole area, the mosquitoes that were sent to me may be assumed to fairly satisfactorily represent the actual relative prevalence of these insects in this locality.

2. I distributed a number of glass test-tubes to each of the thirty-six Police Stations, with general instructions for the catching and transmitting of the insects in such a way as to avoid injury to them. They were to be caught by means of the glass tubes, killed by a whiff of tobacco-smoke, and sent enclosed in match-boxes to the Central Police Station, from which they would be duly forwarded to It was requested that about two-thirds of each consignment should be caught in the evening, or from mosquito-curtains in the early morning, and the remainder from species seen flying about in the day time; and further that no selection of any kind should be made, the first dozen or so caught on any given date being sent.

ine.

   The arrangements made have been carefully carried out by the officers in charge of the stations, with few exceptions; and I beg to express my thanks to the Captain Superintendent of Police, Chief- Inspector MACKIE, and the officers of the Police Force for their hearty co-operation in this research.

   3. During the twelve months, 1st October, 1900, to 30th September, 1901, 32,266 insects were sent to me from the Police Stations. Of these, 31,390 proved to be mosquitoes; the others were chiefly insects belonging to cognate families, such as fungus gnats (Mycetophilidae), midges (Chironomide), sand flies (Simulida), &c.

   1,169, .., 3.7 per cent. were Anopheles, of three species, and 30,221, ..., 96.3 per cent. were Culex, of twelve species. As is shown in Apendix II, the number of species of Culex is probably considerably larger, some that I describe as varieties being perhaps distinct species.

   4. I enclose a Table (Appendix I) showing in detail my observations during the year as regards the various Police Stations. I show for each station the number of specimens received, the number of Anopheles and Culex respectively, and the names of the species of both that have come from the station. I describe the different species by letters corresponding to those used in the Systematic Account of Hongkong Mosquitoes given below (Appendix II). Similar tables showing the same facts, but without the names of species, for each month and each quarter of the year are included in my quarterly reports on this subject, which have appeared in the Government Gazette.

6. In considering the percentage of Anopheles in the foregoing table, two modifying circumstances require to be allowed for. The percentage for October, 1900, is too high, owing to the fact that I was then receiving an unduly large number of insects from the more malarial Police Stations, and less in proportion from the more healthy stations. And on the other hand, the percentage of Anopheles shown for August and September, 1901, is probably much below the average for the Colony as a whole during those months, owing to the fact that from the end of June vigorous measures for the destruction of the larva and breeding-places of these insects were in operation in the neghibourhood of all my collecting stations. I drew up a series of simple instrutions on this subject, as brief and elementary as possible, and these were embodied in a General Order to officers in charge of Police Stations by the Captain Superintendent of Police (r. Appendix III). They were carried into effect. more or less thoroughly, and, while the Police reaped the benefit, my statistics were vitiated in the direction I have indicated. Allowing for these modifying circumstances, it will be found that the prevalence of the Anopheles mosquito runs quite parallel with what we already know of the prevalence of malaria in the Colony. Both are at their minimum in February, and at their maximum between

the months of July and October.

7. No Anopheles were found among mosquitoes sent to me from the following stations:--

No. 5, No. 6, No. 7, No. 8, Kennedy Town, Mount Gough, Shaukiwan, Tsim Sha Tsui,

Stone Cutters' Island, Hung Hom, and Kat 0.

9. In Appendix II I describe systematically the mosquitoes that prevail in the Colony, examin- ing in each case the wings, legs, head, appendages, thorax, abdomen, and size. The size I express in millimetres (25 inch). It will be noted that, so far as Hongkong is concerned, the wings of Anopheles are in all species spotted, and those of all forms of Culex unspotted.

There are three species of Anopheles-a sub-species of Anopheles Sinensis, and two species which have been recognised as new species, not thus far observed elsewhere, by Mr. F. V. THEOBALD, Ento- mologist at the British Museum, to whom I submitted them. He has named one of them Anopheles Maculatus from its markings, the other Anopheles Minimus from its minute size. The former I at first belived to correspond to Anopheles Costalis of West and South Africa, but there are specific differences. I need not here enter into descriptive details, which I have set forth at length in the Appendix.

Anopheles Sinensis breeds chiefly in the rice-fields and the ditches surrounding or draining them, the other two chiefly in the ravines; but they do not confine themselves exclusively to their usual habitats.

}

1450

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

As to the relative prevalence of the three species of Anopheles, I am not able to speak as regards the 294 Anopheles which I received during the last quarter of 1900, but of 875 received during the three quarters of 1901 included in this research, 483 were Anopheles Sinensis, 249 Anopheles Macu- latus, and 143 Anopheles Minimus,

10. I have differentiated twelve species of Culex, which I describe at length in the Appendix. There are probably considerable more, as some of the varieties of certain species which I describe may be regarded by entomologists as distinct species. I do not attempt to follow THEOBALD in his new classification of mosquitoes, just published in the Tropical Journal, into twenty-four different genera, breaking up the old genus Culex into some twenty new genera, based on the arrangement of the scales which cover the insects. For instance, he now decribes Culex Scutellaris and Culex Obturbans, two of the most common of the Hongkong mosquitoes, as Stegomyia Scutellaris and Armigeres Obturbans.

    Culex Fatigans, Culex Scutellaris, Culex Obturbans, and Culex Concolor have been described before. Culex Anulus, Culex Sericeus, and Culex Reesii are new species, and have been named by Mr. THEOBALD from specimens which I submitted to him. Culex Reesii he has so called from our mutual friend Dr. D. C. REES, lately Superintendent of the London School of Tropical Medicine, who put me in communication with Mr. THEOBALD. The insects which I have indicated by the letters, "n". "o", "p", "r", "r", and "s", I have carefully described, but not named. "p" may be Culex Fuscanus; the others are, I think, new species but this question I shall remit to Mr. THEOBALD at the British Museum.

Culex Scutellaris is the black and white striped mosquito so common all over the Colony during the day time; Culex Fatigans and Culex Reesii are the equally common brown mosquitoes, to be found everywhere and at all seasons in the evening; Culex Obturbans is the very large dark mosquito, also very widely prevalent. The others are less abundant, but for the most part occur pretty generally throughout the Colony.

It may be noted in passing that Culex Fatigans is the most usual intermediate host of the blood parasite, Filaria Nocturna, the cause of Elephantiasis and its kindred diseases, by no means uncommon in this locality.

While Anopheles as a rule only use for breeding purposes clean water in more or less natural collections, the various species of Culex lay their eggs wherever stagnant water exists, in broken dishes, empty tins, flower pots, water tanks or barrels, drain traps, and the like. Nothing is too dirty to have its appropriate mosquito developing in it. Culex Obturbans is the most loathsome of all in its larval state, finding its most favourable conditions in decomposing urine.

11. I do not propose to enter here into details of prophylaxis against these insects, which I have dealt with in special reports: but direct attention to certain observations which I made during the

winter.

I found the larva of Anopheles in the nullahs throughout the whole winter, in scarcely diminished numbers, though there were few in the pupa stage, and development at that season is evidently very slow or arrested.

I was able to note the effects of severe cold at the beginning of February. On 1st February, I had made a careful examination of the Kennedy Town nullah, and found Anopheles larvæ plentiful. On the 3rd there was a sudden rapid drop in the temperature, and when I examined the stream again on the 5th there were few larvæ to be seen. It seemed as if they had been killed by the cold. But for- tunately I had some larvæ under observation at the time in a glass jar in my verandah. Under the influence of the cold these became torpid or sluggish, and most of them seemed dead. On the 7th, however, the sun shone out brightly, and the seemingly dead ones as well as the others became quite lively again. It is probable, therefore, that much of the diminution in numbers of the larva in the ravines during the winter is more apparent than real, since they are most easily recognised in ordinary circumstances by their very characteristic movements when disturbed.

I have the honour to be,

Sir.

1.-Culex Scutellaris. (Stegomyia Scutellaris. Theobald.)

There are several varieties of this insect, differing markedly in size. There is also one in which the median white line, while present on the head, is absent from the thorax, which is a very dark brown. Probably some of these would by entomologists be described as different species. The one I describe may be regarded as the type. The different varieties occur in different parts of the Colony.

Wings unspotted. Greyish, with dark seales on veins.

Legs dark, with whitish femur, and with white bands at bases of tarsi.

K.-Culex Obturbans. (Walker.) (Armigeres Obturbans. Theobald).

Mr. Theobald recognised the specimens of this which I sent him as Culex Obturbaus, but many of the specimens agree more closely with the Culex Ventralis of Walker. It may be that sub-varieties of both, approaching each other in charac- teristics, are present in the Colony. They are both large species. While I adopt the name Culex Obturbans, the following description of the insect, as it is now in large numbers before me, is very like the description of Culex Ventralis in Giles's Handbook of Mosquitoes.

Directions for the Destruction of the Larvæ of Mosquitoes, embodied in a General Order to Officers in charge of Police Stations, 22nd June, 1901.

The one great principle to act on is to prevent or abolish all stagnant water.

Careful search should be systematically made in the neighbourhood of all dwellings for any vessels that might contain stagnant water from rain or any other source; and arrangement should be made to keep them empty, or to have them cmptied, or the water changed, once a week.

If running streams or ravines be anywhere near a station, efforts should be made to confine the water to a central channel. Side pools should be filled up; rock hollows should be smoothed out by cement or concrete, or a channel should be made from them by means of hammer and chisel; and a ready exit, or drainage under ground, should take the place of all oozings of water from the ground surface.

Where this guiding principle cannot be applied, or until it can be applied, still or stagnant water surfaces should be systematically inspected for the presence of larvæ of mosquitoes, and measures adopted to destroy them. This is most conveniently done in this locality by sprinkling the water surface with kerosene oil. The oil spreads in a very thin layer over the surface, and prevents the larvae from rising to breathe the air, which results in their speedy death. tea-spoonful of oil to each square yard of water surface is sufficient, and, if there is little movement of the water, once a week is often enough.

About one

       As the colour of the larva assimilates itself to the colour of the water it inhabits, the larvae not usually be easily seen in the water pool itself It is necessary to dip up the water with a rapid dip of a large spoon or a saucer.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 1st January, 1902.

SIR, I have the honour to forward the Annual Report on the Government Lunatic Asylum for the year 1901.

   Table IX shows the admissions and deaths that have occurred during the year and Table X the diseases for which the patients were admitted.

The total number admitted was 90 as against 109 in 1900.

Europeans-No females were admitted during the year. The American female admitted in April, 1895, is still in the Asylum and quite incurable mentally. The German Sailor admitted in April, 1898, and the Austrian in 1900 have both recovered and been sent home. The former's case being of great interest has been inserted in the Appendix. No deaths occurred amongst the Europeans.

Indians.-One died as the result of debility in a chronic imbecile.

Chinese.-The admissions this year were 76 as against 97 in 1900. There were 6 deaths, 22 patients were sent to Canton and 43 handed over to their friends.

I am glad to say no accidents occurred during the year.

Wardmaster G. R. LEE proceeded on leave in March and was succeeded by Mr. GRIFFITHS.

The buildings are in a good state of repair but require colour washing and painting outside, as this has not been done for many years. The fireplaces in lieu of gas stoves, suggested in last year's report, have been built and are a great improvement.

   The improvements suggested by you, whereby more room for outdoor exercise for the patients, will be available, are being carried out.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

HONGKONG, 31st January, 1902.

   STR,-I have the honour to foward the Annual Report on the work done at the Public Mortuary during 1901.

On May 12th I took over charge from Dr. THOMSON.

Owing to the want of accommodation, especially noticeable in plague epidemics, an improvement was made by adding a few more tables and a better water supply. In view of the fact that even now there is only accommodation for, 16 bodies, I trust the extension, sanctioned last year, will soon be carried out, if possible before the next plague epidemic.

   The Chinese Caretaker has continued in charge and done his work very satisfactorily, and, I am glad to say, escaped any infection.

Attached Table gives the causes of death as certified.

General Remarks.-Only 15 Eurpocans were brought to the Mortuary out of 2,250. The rest were Chinese, Indians, Portuguese and Japanese--the Chinese of course predominating. Of the total number 45.5 per cent, were found in the streets or harbour, .., without their addresses being known. During the plague epidemic a few rats were examined occasionally with a view to ascertaining whether they had died of plague. The numbers were unfortunately very small, but in May and June those I examined gave a death-rate of 24% due to plague. In September, at the suggestion of Dr. KINYOUN (United States Marine Hospital Service), a large number were examined with his kind assistance and the result showed a plague death-rate of 5.10%. Subsequently I examined 100 every month and it is interesting to note that the subsidence of plague amongst human beings corresponds to that amongst rats, October giving 2%, November 1% and December nil. This investigation will show whether the plague epidemic amongst rats precedes or not the epidemic amongst mankind.

Special Remarks. Plague.-This disease heads the list by a very large number-1,035 out of 2,250. Of this number no less than 36.6% occurred in bodies found in the streets or harbour and consequently without their address being known. This percentage continues high throughout the year and does not seem to be affected in any way by any measures taken or any concessions made. The percentages month by month were:--

   January 42.8, February 33.3. March 38.4, April 44.4, May 35.04, June 34.5, July 34.3, August 45.4, September 59.09, October (no cases), Nevember 100. This question has been frequently discussed as militating seriously against checking the disease in the early months of the year, but it is

not easy to suggest a remedy. Cremation is now carried out for this disease all over the world and it is perhaps more needed here as our space, for disposing of bodies dying from epidemic diseases, is extremely limited. I would much like to see a crematorium attached to the Mortuary as it would save much unnecessary handling and carrying about of bodies which, especially in the summer months, is anything but pleasant and an attempt to popularise this method might be made by thus disposing of all unclaimed bodies.

     The largest number of cases occurred in May (428). There were 12.18% of non-bubonic cases, At the beginning and during the height of the epidemic by far the largest number of cases were of the bubonic type whilst from July onwards the septicemie variety prevailed. The percentage of septiconic cases were month by month:-

     The routine examination of the spleen blood of every case sent in has been extremely useful in detecting cases sent in as one of drowning, accident, &c. and especially amongst the bodies so decomposed as to prevent the cause of death being ascertained.

In the latter cases it is thus possible to exclude plague as a cause of death.

     Two cases may be cited as showing the necessity of being careful in this matter. A girl was sent in, found by the Police floating in the harbour, and her mother stated she last saw her alive asleep on the sampan where it was presumed she fell off and was drowned. A spleen smear, however, showed it to have been a case of plague. A boy was sent in who had fallen downstairs and dislocated his neck. His neck was dislocated but his spleen was full of plague bacilli and his house was accordingly disinfected. Another interesting case was that of a Chinaman who had been bitten by a rat a few days previous to his death. The bite on the thumb, the lymphangitis up the arm, and the axillary bubo full of plague bacilli were all well marked.

     Enteric Fever. From these figures (3) it does not seem as if this disease was very prevalent amongst the Chinese though it must be borne in mind that in a long illness of this kind no doubt many cases are removed to their own homes on the mainland.

Malarial Fever-Exclusive of plague about 5% of the deaths come under this heading. Next year, I am inclined to think, the figures will be higher as the "unknown" cases from the convents will no doubt come in fair numbers under this heading as well as some of the "unknown" cases found in the streets. In connection with this disease I may mention that the parasites, spores and crescents in the spleen rapidly disappear after death being apparently disintegrated by the post mortem bacilli and I found this to occur in one case inside of 40 hours. Probably therefore many of the cases under the heading "unknown" may be malarial. I have also found signs of recent malaria (spores, &c.) in smears taken from brain, liver and kidney as well as spleen and this may have a practical use inasmuch as the liver and kidney disintegrate much slower than the spleen so that in some of the "unknown" bodies one may be able in future to ascertain whether or not death was due to malaria for, as I have already stated, 30 or 40 hours after death all traces of recent malaria have disappeared from the spleen.

     Septicama.-2 cases out of the 9 were puerperal. The cases where death was due to some com- plication of labour only amount to 8, a small number, though they were all preventable.in the sense that proper supervision or skilled aid might have saved the mother's life.

The

     Tetanus.-Four of these cases were reported by my predecessor, two of them being tetanus neanotorum but no note was made as to the presence of the tetanus bacillus in the wounds. curious and interesting fact about this disease is that the bacilli very like tetanus bacilli may be found in numbers in the spleen in certain decomposed bodies--both rat and human-in which death has not been due to tetanus but the discase itself is extremely difficult if not impossible to diagnose post mortem. "The "bacillus in the disease itself does not appear in the internal organs or blood-and lesions in internal "organs both of human beings and animals which have succumbed to tetanus are very trifling." (Flexner.) Why the bacilli are found after death in other diseases is difficult to explain nor do I think any one has so far noted its occurrence so that possibly it may be a peculiarity of the tropics. So far I have found them chiefly in acute septic diseases (plague, endocarditis, &c.) and in one case of apoplexy in a chronic alcoholic subject. In the only two cases of tetanus reported by myself I found the bacillus easily and in numbers in the unhealed end of the umbilical cord in both cases.

1456

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

   Tuberculosis (Abdominalis).-The bulk of cases were amongst infants and chileren, only two cases being over 12 years of age. At the present stage of the Tuberculosis question these cases are of great interest The Chinese do not feed on milk, butter or beef and therefore there can, in their case, be no question of direct inoculation of the intestines by the ingestion of tubercle bacilli in their food.

DISEASES OF RESPIRATORY SYSTEM.

   These account for 17% of the mortality (exclusive of plague) and are very prevalent both amongst adults and children. Most of the Empyema" cases might have been saved if they had only applied for assistance early.

DISEASES OF DIGESTIVE SYSTEM.

   Peritonitis.-4 of these cases were due to appendicitis, the abscess having ruptured into the peritoneal cavity, and 2 were due to perforation of duodenal ulcers. The cause of this latter disease is very obscure. In each case there was only one large ulcer about the size of a twenty-cent piece and neither of the cases had suffered, as far as one could see, from burns.

   Jaundice-In only one of these cases were any gall stones to be found so that the bulk of them were as far as one could judge catarrhal nor were there any evidences of recent malaria.

INJURIES.

   Wound of Chest. This was caused by a stab, the intercostal artery being omit severed and the chest full of blood.

Wound of Wrist.-The radial artery was cut and apparently no aid being at hand the woman bled to death.

Ruptured Spleen (12).-It is a pity these cases do not seek advice early as in most of them surgery might have saved a fatal termination. Some of them, from the history of the case, had survived for hours after the injury. One of them was due to a buffalo accident--rare in Hongkong-but I was not able to ascertain whether the animal tossed the man only or whether he was gored. In connexion with the spleen a curiosity may be recorded here as tropical practitioners are more used to large spleens than otherwise. The smallest spleen I have ever seen, at any rate in an adult, I found in an old man of 52. It weighed 33 ounces and was 2 inches long. It was not a supplementary organ and no other glands in the body were in any way enlarged.

   Ruptured Heart.-One of these, a case of a body aged 12 who, swinging on a gate at the Race Course, brought the structure down on himself. No bones were broken nor was there any external

He lived about 10 minutes. bruising but the auricle was torn and the pericardiun was full of blood.

   Ruptured Liner-2 cases were in children about 1 month old. There were no bruises or fractured ribs in either case.

The abdomen was full of blood. As the children were found in the streets or sent from the Convent no history was obtainable, a regrettable fact as this accident seems to be very rare at this early age.

   Worms (reflex action).-This occurred in a boy aged 12, in my predecessor's time, but as there are no notes of the case, it is impossible to explain the exact cause of death. This cause must be very rare, however, though round worms are extremely common amongst the natives here and do the most extraordinary things.

   Premature and still birth.--No doubt a good many of these are due to plague in the mother as the bacilli were found in the spleen in several cases late in the epidemic. Unfortunately I did not examine the early ones in this manner. Even with a plague epidemic on, many of these cases must represent difficulties in labour with the mother, perhaps ending fatally, though what becomes of them it is not easy to say as we have only had 8 cases in the mortuary where death was the result of child-birth.

   Unknown.-153 seems a large number but the practice of dumping the bodies on to the hillside or into the harbour leads to a delay before they are found and as decomposition sets in so rapidly here it is out of the question in most cases to give any cause of death. All spleens are, however, now examined so as to be sure, if possible, that plague was not the cause of death and in the plague epidemic it has been the practice to bury them as plague so as to be on the safe side. These are cases in which a crematorium would be most useful. I would like to mention one very useful practical hint, for which I am indebted to Dr. KINYOUN, in connection with this work. I refer to the use of the dye-Thionin. It has two advantages over all others owing to its having no time limit and where one has to examine many specimens, especially at the monthly survey of rats, this is very important, and, secondly, owing to its being a differential stain for plague bacilli. These take on a faint blue colour in contrast to the dark blue of the other bacilli. These advantages have been most useful in the work. It, however. does not last, so it is not so good for permanent specimens.

I have the honour to be.

INFECTIOUS DISEASES HOSPITAL, KENNEDY TOWN, HONGKONG, 21st February, 1902.

   Sir, I have the honour to report for the information of His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government regarding the Infectious Diseases Hospital at Kennedy Town for the year 1901.

I enclose a Return of Diseases and Deaths in the Hospital during 1901.

   Small-pow. There were 42 cases, with 12 deaths. Many of the fatal cases were Chinese suffering from the confluent form of the disease, and at an advanced stage of the illness at the time of admission.

   I find Salol of great value in the treatment of Small-pox, when its use is commenced early. It allays irritation of the skin, aborts the eruption, causing it to die away for the most part without sup- puration, usually prevents the secondary fever entirely, and hastens the general course of the disease. It is less useful if not given until after suppuration of the vesicles has become established. I give ten grains every three hours at first, but find it desirable to rapidly diminish and discontinue the drug when the disease is under control, as, if long continued, it tends to produce a warty condition of the skin of the face.

Cholera.-All the cases of Cholera occurred at the end of February, and came from the S.S." Cheung Chew." Most of the fifteen patients were in a state of collapse at the time of arrival, and of the ten fatal cases eight died within a few hours after admission.

   Plague.-204 Plague patients were under treatment, and of these 156 died. This gives a mortality of 76.5 per cent., a little less than that of the previous year-77.5 per cent. As in former epidemics, the mortality was very heavy among Chinese and much lower among Europeans. The comparative racial mortality was as follows:-

   There was only one case of pneumonic plague properly so called, but pneumonic symptoms supervened in three other cases which had also buboes.

   After very careful observation of the effects of the administration of Carbolic Acid throughout the whole of last year's epidemic, I am of opinion that it does not in any way modify the course of Plague, and is useless as a method of treatment.

To test the diagnostic value of microscopic examination of the blood in Plague, apart from the question of the exclusion of Malaria, I examined a single stained film from each of 278 consecutive cases, partly from the Plague Branch of the Tung Wah Hospital. Plague bacilli were present in only 30, and were absent in 241. In many of the latter, especially when going on to a fatal issue, bacilli were present in the blood at later stages of the disease; but the figures above given show that the value of blood examination is more important for purposes of prognosis than for diagnosis.

The Staff-Mr. E. ABBOTT, the Wardmaster in charge at the beginning of the year, died of Phthisis in the Civil Hospital on 21st April. Corporal T. NEWLING, R.A.M.C., lent by the Military Authorities, reported for duty on 1st April, and acted as Wardmaster throughout the Plague epidemic until he was recalled on 27th July. Private B. P. LAKE, R.A.M.C., assisted him from 28th May to 24th July; and Mr. LI YIN SZE, a student of the College of Medicine for Chinese, was also employed as Assistant Wardmaster from 22nd April till the end of August. Mr. C. F. O'BRIEN arrived from England, and assumed duty as Wardmaster on 27th August.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

1459

     When female patients were under treatment in the European wards, Sisters were detailed from the Civil Hospital staff for duty at Kennedy Town.

     The staff of Chinese "boys," amahs, and other employés was increased and diminished as was found necessary to meet the varying conditions that existed in course of the year.

     During my absence on leave in November and December, and until my return to the Colony 5th instant, Dr. R. LAMORT acted for me as Medical Officer in charge of this Hospital.

I have the honour to be.

     The health of the staff has been good in spite of the fact that the new Officers' quarters have not yet been opened to them. The health of the inmates has also been satisfactory.

     Six lepers were sent to Canton, one of which, however, returned to the Colony and had to be sent back again.

There were a hundred and fourteen cases in which corporal punishment was inflicted during the year, fourteen by the Prison Authorities and a hundred from the sentence of the Courts; none required any medical after-treatment.

     Overcrowding of prisoners is still a serious question. Four and even five men have at times to be put in the same cell, thus reducing the space for each to some 250 cubic feet, whereas the Public Health Ordinance, 13 of 1901, requires that the individual allotted space should be of 400 cubic feet.

     The temporary hospital is also at times overcrowded. The Officers' quarters which were altered and fitted up some two years ago for the Gaol Hospital is yet unavailable for the prisoners, being still occupied by the Indian Gaol Staff. The present temporary hospital is most inadequate, offering no proper accommodation or facilities for the treatment of patients.

1460

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

   The daily number of prisoners complaining sick is most variable from time to time, malingering fully accounting for these variations.

   In spite of the prevalence of dengue fever in the Colony in November, no case occurred amongst the prisoners.

There were fifteen prisoners discharged on medical grounds during the year.

Permission was obtained from His Excellency the Governor to transfer a pregnant female prisoner to the Government Civil Hospital, as she had suddenly become comatose, she was found to be suffering from malignant malaria and died shortly after, having given birth to a still-born child.

I append the usual Tables.

TUNG WAH HOSPITAL, HONGKONG, 22nd Feburary, 1902.

SIR,-I have the honour to submit for the information of His Excellency the Officer Administering the Government the Annual Report of the Tung Wah Hospital for the year 1901.

The number of patients in the wards at the beginning of the year was 125; 2,989 were admitted during 1901, making a total of 3,114 cases: 1.899 were discharged: 1.071 died: leaving 144 in the Hospital at the close of the

year.

The admissions during the past ten years have been as follows:-

Of the 2,989 Admissions, 547 were transferred for treatment to other institutions, as follows:- 18 to Government Civil Hospital, 7 to the Lunatic Asylum, 130 to Kennedy Town Infective Diseases Hospital, and 392 to the Tung Wah Plague Branch Hospital at Kennedy Town.

Of the fatal cases, 296 were in a dying condition at the time of admission.

There remains a net total of 2,146 actually treated in the Tung Wah Hospital, of whom 652, i. e., 30.4 per cent. were under European treatment, and 1,494, i. c., 69.6 per cent. under Chinese treatment.

483 dead bodies were brought to the Hospital mortuary to await burial. 84 of these, and also 63 bodies of persons who died within the Hospital itself were sent to the Government Public Mortuary for internal examination.

Free burial was provided by the Hospital for 1,930 persons.

The number of visits to the out-patient Department was 77,842.

449 destitute persons were temporarily housed and fed.

1,952 persons were vaccinated at, and in connection with, the Hospital.

   As in previous years, the Tung Wah Hospital was used throughout the Plague epidemic of 1901 as a convenient centre for the diagnosis and observation of Plague cases, a large airy ward close to the Receiving Ward being set apart for this purpose.

The matshed Plague Branch was re-opened for the admission of patients on 4th May, and was in use until 30th July. The number of admissions was 393; of whom 41 were discharged cured, 2 escaped from the Hospital, 1 was transferred to the Government Hospital, and 349 died; this gives a mortality of 88.8 per cent.

A second Branch Hospital was opened near Yaumati, on 1st July, but the epidemic rapidly decreasing there were no admissions and it was closed on 10th July.

The new Hospital buildings to form an extension of the existing Hospital on the opposite side of Po Yan Street are now nearing completion; and on 19th November His Excellency the Governor laid the foundation stone of a permanent Infective Diseases Branch of the Tung Wah. Hospital on a site adjoining that of the Government Hospital at Kennedy Town.

A considerable number of surgical instruments were got out from England in course of the year. Dr. CHUNG was absent on sick leave from 19th August to 17th December; and Mr. Ho Ko TSUN, a student of the Hongkong College of Medicine for Chinese, who had already been employed from 1st June to assist Dr. CHUNG in the extra work involved by the Plague epidemic, acted for him during his absence. During my own absence from the Colony from the 31st October to the end of the year Dr. LAMORT acted as Inspecting Medical Officer.

I attach the following Tables:-

I. A Return of Diseases and Deaths during the year 1901.

II. Showing the proportion of cases treated by European and Chinese methods respectively.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL,

1st March, 1902.

     SIR,-In reply to Circular No. 71 of 1901, I have the honour to forward you a report on the working of the Medical Department in the New Territory during last year.

I have the honour to be,

The Honourable,

THE COLONIAL SECRETARY.

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

J. M. ATKINSON, Principal Civil Medical Officer.

GOVERNMENT CIVIL HOSPITAL, HONGKONG.

There has been a marked diminution in the number of malarial fever cases from the Police Stations in the New Territory during the year 1901.

     On comparing the admissions to the Hospital for this class of diseases for the last two years we find that the uine Police Stations to the North of the range of hills bounding Kowloon give the follow- ing figures:-

Average Strength. Malarial Fever

Admissions. 1900. 1901. 1900. 1901.

In other words the percentage of malarial fever admissions to Hospital from the New Territory dropped from 90% in 1900 to 52.5% in 1901.

    This was undoubtedly occasioned to a great extent by the active prophylactic treatment which was commenced on the 1st May, 1901, and continued up to 1st November of that year.

This varied, at those Stations marked *. Prof. KocH's method was used, viz., one gramme of quinine being given daily for two days followed by an interval of five days without any quinine and so on; at those marked a daily dose of three or five grains of quinine was given; whereas at one Station, viz., Au Tau grain of arsenic was given twice daily.

The result of this prophylactic treatment is still further shewn by a Table marked A which I attach showing all the cases of malarial fever at the Police Station in the New Territory from March to December, 1900, and 1901, and the prophylactic treatment adopted.

This return includes the cases treated by the Resident Medical Officer in addition to those sent in to Hospital.

    From this it will be seen that quinine is the best prophylactic, and of the two methods, if anything, the daily administration of a small dose has been followed by the best results.

Another important factor in this diminution is that the Police were in 1901 housed in permanent buildings-at Sha Tau Kok in 1900 the Police were under canvas.

Recognised precautions were more fully taken against malaria, the neighbourhood of the Police Stations was kept as free as possible of Anopheles, the Police were instructed how to recognise Anopheles

1466

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 25TH JULY, 1902.

pools and were shewn the methods of destroying the larvæ, all standing collections of water were as far as possible got rid of and many trees, Eucalyptus and others, were planted.

   In August shortly after my return I visited the New Territory accompaned by the Captain Super- intendent of Police; we inspected Tai Po and Sha Tau Kok.

   I recommended that the numerous paddy fields adjoining the Police Station at Sha Tau Kok should, if possible, be resumed and reclaimed, there is constantly stagnant water on them which forms excellent breeding place for Anopheles.

   I also recommended that, to better drain the swampy grounds around the Police Stations, a number of Eucalyptus trees should be planted, what is required is to plant these trees on the damp areas at the base of the hills not on the slopes of the hills.

   Again, in October with the Acting Captain Superintendent of Police, I visited Cheung Chau, Tai O, Ping Shan and Au Tau.

As plague has been prevalent at Cheung Chau, I recommended that steps be taken to kill off the rats which are still prevalent there; this has been done.

   We arranged for the transfer of the Lepers from the swampy island near Au Tau Police Station to the buildings erected for their habitation on the hillside opposite to their old abode, they have since been transferred and are visited weekly by the Resident Medical Officer.

>>

   Attached is a return marked B from Dr. THOMSON'S report on the "Examination of Mosquitoes showing the number of mosquitoes examined by him from the several Police Stations during the year ending 30th Stepember, 1901-this conclusively shows, as was to be expected, that at the station where most malarial fever cases occur the proportion of Anopheles found is also greater.

   I also enclose the report of the Resident Chinese Medical Officer. In my opinion there should be at least two resident medical officers-one for the East and another for the West of the New Territory, that one in the West might be stationed at Un Loong or Ping Shan, and the one in the East as at present at Tai Po, the work is much too arduous for one, the distances he has to travel are very great and it is practically impossible for him to do justice to the large resident population; in addition to this he can never get away on leave.

Another important requirement is a registration of births and deaths.

   It must be remembered that all the Chinese living in the New Territory are British subjects and several cases of infanticide have already occurred; in order to check the native practice of abandoning their female children, some such measure is necessary.

I would suggest that each Police Station should be a place for registration.

GOVERNMENT LABORATORY,

                                 April 9, 1902. SIR,-I have the honour to submit a statement of the work done in the Government Laboratory during the year 1901.

2. The work was greater in amount than in any previous year. It may be summarized as follows:-

     3. The toxicological cases investigated comprise 15 cases of suspected human poisoning. The poison found in eight cases was opium; and in one case the active principle of Gelsemium Elegans was isolated. In one case of wholesale poisoning a woman put native arsenic in coarse powder amongst some cooked fish. Violent vomiting and great prostration only were caused to the six persons who ate the food. From the remnants of the fish 27 grains of arsenic were separated. The coarseness of the powdered arsenic had doubtless greatly interfered with the desired result.

WATERS.

4. The results of the analyses of samples taken each month from the Pokfulum and Tytam Re- servoirs, and from the Kowloon service, indicate that these supplies continue to maintain their excellent qualities. Towards the end of the year Yaumati was supplied from a new service-the Cheung Sha Wan supply. The results of the analysis of this source shows the water to be well suited for potable purposes. In an Appendix will be found particulars of the monthly analyses of the public supplies, and of the other waters.

5. Of Petroleum and Petroleum Fuel, 265 samples were examined. imported was sufficiently high to pass the 73° F. limit.

   7. A number of various kinds of food were examined for the public at the specially low fees laid down in the Ordinance.

   8. The result of the systematic method of taking samples by the Police has been that the sale of adulterated liquor has practically ceased in the Colony.

RICE.

   9. In connection with the food supply a series of examinations was made of the cheapest kinds of rice to be obtained in the Colony. The amount of albuminoids in Chinese rice is very high. This is of much interest as in calculating out the diets for Chinese engaged on hard labour it had been found that if the percentage of albuminoids in rice be taken at five (the figure hitherto adopted) a much larger ration of more albuminoid substances such as fish was theoretically required by these per- sons than practically was found to be needed. The figure 7.12 (mean of the percentage of albuminoids of the first 9 specimens) is now used for ascertaining the proportion of rice required by persons en- gaged in various capacities. The analyses are recorded in the Table. Sample No. 9 was bought as being good rice. It will serve as a standard. Sample No. 10 was sent from the Po Leung Kuk for an ex- amination of its quality.

BLOOD STAINS.

10. No less than sixty articles consisting of clothing and weapons were examined.

BUILDING MATERIALS.

1469

     11. Samples of lime, mortar, cement, and red earth have been sent for analysis. A good sample of Chinese red earth contained the following constituents in 100 parts:--

Silica,.. Alumina, Ferric oxide, Water,

...63.8

..20.8

4.4°

.10.0

99.0

     The analysis showed the material to be derived from granite, of which some of the constituents had been removed in the process of weathering. Viewed under the microscope the earth was seen to be almost entirely in sharp crystals. Such red earth if used instead of sand for mixing with lime would form a strong and durable mortar.

LIME.

!

     12. Although it is not difficult to prepare good lime, it appears that much of that used in Hongkong has been so much exposed to atmospheric conditions as to be greatly impaired for building

purposes.

CHINESE DRUGS.

     13. Seventy-one were sent to the laboratory for identification, and, in the case of mixed drugs, for the presence therein of noxious constituents.

EXAMINATIONS FOR THE PUBLIC.

     16. Value of the work done.-The value of the analyses performed as determined from the tariff of charges published in Government Notification No. 664 is $5,282.50. This amount does not include the value of the analyses undertaken in connection with the Special Reports (See para.15); also, there is much other work in connection with the laboratory for which nothing has been set down.

17. Library. A few standard works have been ordered so as to bring the library up to date.

    This is the fourth year in succession that this disease has been epidemic in the Colony, more Europeans were attacked last year than is generally the case, the number being 30, although in 1898,

26 were attacked.

    Most of them were living on the Queen's Road level and were hence more evident to the European Community.

    Many of these cases were associated with the finding of rats in the dwellings of those attacked. but whether these rats were themselves the subject of plague was not ascertained. During the first six months of 1901, 48,000 rats were destroyed.

As is usually the case, a large number of the Chinese were dead bodies found lying in the streets or boats in the harbour, in 1902, 308 such cases occurred, these, to a great extent, account for the annual recurrence of this disease, as of necessity the houses from which they come are not disinfected. As long as this deposition of dead bodies in the streets occurs so long will plague continue in our midst.

    To try to some extent to prevent the yearly onset of the disease, in 1902 in the winter months a systematic cleansing and disinfection of every Chinese house in the City was instituted.

    This was commenced in November and continued during the following four months, the magnitude of the operations undertaken will be understood when I state that over 8,000 Chinese houses were thus dealt with in Hongkong, and in addition to this the Chinese houses in Kowloon were cleansed and disinfected.

Enteric Fever-There were 75 cases as compared with 85 in the previous year.

    More Europeans were, however, attacked by the disease than in the previous year, the number being 47 as compared with 34 in 1900.

Twenty-two of these cases were however imported.

Malarial Fevers.-Extensive operations have been undertaken during the year in the way of remo- val of undergrowth, training of nullahs and draining of stagnant pools of water with the object of diminishing the number of mosquitoes.

    As far as we can judge by statistics these appear to have been successful, the total number of deaths amongst the Chinese from malarial fever being returned as 541 in 1901 as compared with 887 in 1900.

Beri-beri.There were 377 deaths from beri-beri as compared with 361 in 1890.

GENERAL SANITARY CONDITION OF THE COLONY.

    The presence of plague in an epidemic form for the fourth year in succession shows that more radical measures must be taken to improve the sanitary state of the Colony.

With this object in view a cleansing and disinfection of all the Chinese houses in Victoria and Kowloon was commenced in November and was systematically carried through during the four following months.

The Government also decided to obtain from England the services of two experts in sanitation : Professor SIMPSON, M.D., F.R.C.P., and Mr. ROBERT CHADWICK, M.I.C.E., C.M.G., were appointed to advise as to what further steps should be taken to improve the sanitary condition of the Colony.

During the year the various existing Public Health Ordinances were consolidated in Ordinance No. 13 of 1901.

    Ordinance No. 30 of 1901 was passed with a view to limiting the erection of new buildings to a greater height than one and a-half times the width of the street on which they front unless the building at present occupying such site exceeds that height, in which case the new building may be carried up as high as the existing one so long as the scale contained in Ordinance No. 15 of 1894 is not exceeded.

It also provides that no existing building which does not at present exceed in height one and a half times the width of the street on which it fronts shall be so raised as to exceed that limit of height. It is evident, that resumption of insanitary buildings and of areas will be necessary before there can be much improvement in many of the crowded parts of the Colony.

More publié latrines and urinals are also needed.

VACCINATIONS.

"To

my people on the eve of my Coronation, an event which I look upon as one of the most "solemn and important in my life.

"I am anxious to express to my people at home and in the Colonies and in India my heartfelt appreciation of the deep sympathy which they have manifested towards me during the time that my "life was in such imminent danger. The postponement of the ceremony owing to my illness caused, "I fear, much inconvenience and trouble to those who intended to celebrate it, but their disappointment was borne by them with admirable patience and temper. The prayers of my people for my recovery "were heard, and I now offer up my deepest gratitude to Divine Providence for having preserved my "life and given me strength to fulfil the important duties which devolve upon me as the Sovereign of "this great Empire.

QUESTION. Mr. SHEWAN, pursuant to notice, asked the following question:-

How is the Widows and Orphans' Pension Fund formed?

What does the fund amount to at present?

Do all Civil Servants subscribe to it? If not, why not?

What proportion of their salaries is subscribed by those who belong to the Fund?

Do the Government assist this Fund in any way already?

If so, how?

What is the difference between the rate of 3/- per dollar and the rate taken at by 1/9, estimated

to amount to per annum?

The difference between 1/6 the rate paid by Ceylon and the rate of the day say 1/4 is only two- pence per rupee or say 121%, but at Hongkong the difference will be about 1/3 per dollar or over 70%. Why is the Hongkong contribution so much more liberal?

49. In determining the amount of compensation to be awarded for any land or building acquired under this Act, the following further provisions shall apply:-

(1.) The Court shall take into consideration any increase to the value of any other land or building belonging to the person interested likely to accrue from the acquisition of the land or from the acquisition, alteration or demolition of the building;

(2.) When any addition to, or improvement of, the land or building has been made after the date of publication under Section 27, 32, or 39 of a notification relating to the land or building, such addition or improvement shall not (unless it was necessary for the maintenance of the building in a proper state of repair) be included, nor in the case of any interest acquired after the said date shall any separate estimate of the value thereof be made, so as to increase the amount of compensation to be paid for the land or building;

(3.) In estimating the market value of the building at the date of the publication of a declaration relating thereto under Section 29, 32, or 39, the Court shall have due regard to the nature and then condition of the property and the probable duration of the building in its existing state and to the state of repair thereof and to the provisions of sub- sections (4), (5) and (6) of this section;

(4.) When the owner of the land or building has, after the passing of this Act, and within twenty-four months preceding the date of the publication of a notification relating to the land or building under Section 27, 32, or 33, made a return under Section 155 of the Municipal Act of the rent of the land or building, the rent of the land or building shall not in any such case, save as the Court may otherwise direct, be deemed to be greater than the rent shown in the latest return so made: Provided that where any addition to or improvement of the land or building has been made after the date of such latest return and previous to the date of the publication of a notification under Sec- tion 27, 32, or 39 relating to the land or building, the Court may take into consideration any increase in the letting value of the land due to such addition or improvement; (5.) If in the opinion of the Court the rental of the land or building has been enhanced by reason of its being used for an illegal purpose, or being so overcrowded as to be dangerous or injurious to the health of the inmates, the rental shall not be deemed to be greater than the rental which would be obtainable if the land or building were used for legal purposes only, or were occupied by such a number of persons only as it was suitable to accommodate without risk of such overcrowding;

(6.) If in the cpinion of the Court the building is in a state of defective sanitation, or is not

in reasonably good repair, the amount of compensation shall not exceed the estimated value of the building after being put into a sanitary condition, or into reasonably good repair, less the estimated expense of putting it into such condition or repair;

(7.) If in the opinion of the Court the building being used or intended or likely to be used for human habitation is not reasonably capable of being made fit for human habitation, the amount of compensation shall not exceed the value of the materials, less the cost of demolition.

SIR,

SEWERAGE AND DRAINAGE OF HONGKONG.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretari,

PUBLIC WORKS OFFICE,

HONGKONG, 13th May, 1902.

1. Since the publication of a report dated 10th April, 1902, I have made further enquiries concerning the Sewerage and Drainage of the City of Victoria, which, on the whole, tend to 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, sitting in judgment on my own project. I shall endeavour to be impartial and I hope I shall succeed in being so, for I trust. I am not yet so scnile as to believe that I attained finality of knowledge, twelve years ago, or that my views have not undergone modification, in accordance with increasing experience.

Sewerage.

2. The scarcity of water, which has prevailed during my visit, renders it most difficult to judge as to the normal condition of the sewers. No sewers could be judge of the expected to work well with a consumption of water not exceeding 7 gallons per head per day for all purposes, and in many parts of the town, doubtless, less. This remark applies with even greater force to the House Sewers, which, I am sorry to say, are not so well constructed as they should be.

The present drought is

      3. The prevailing drought is an argument in favour of the Separate System. an argumetn The only arguments of any weight which have ever been brought forward against

in favour of

the Separate the Separate System are:-

System.

(c.) That the sewers are not flushed by the rain-water.

(b.) That covered storm-water drains being required to carry off rain-

water, they may as well carry sewage also.

(c.) That the Separate System is not in use in London and many towns

in England.

As regards (a.). I beg to point out that no rain of importance has fallen since August last.

  Since that month had the sewers or drains been dependent on rain for flushing, their condition would now have been deplorable. Sewers, large enough to carry off rain-water would have only received during all these months the paltry quantity of sewage which now flows, an amount wholly inadequate to flush such large pipes or conduits.

As regards (6.), I would point out that covered storm-water drains should be -avoided to the greatest extent possible. They are sure to be at least as great a nuisance as properly constructed sewers. Some must indeed be covered, but covered lengths should be reduced to a minimum. Certainly the condition of the drains whether as they exist or even when re-modelled would not be improved by allowing a mere dribble of sewage to flow through them during the prolonged dry season or even during the intervals between rain-storms. They would merely be vast magazines of sewage tainted air.

As regards (2.). I merely say that the climate of Hongkong is dissimilar to that of England; that most English sewers were made long ago, and that many towns have adopted the Separate System, at least so far as ancient custom and law permit them to do so.

All observations made, during my visit, tend to a belief that nuisances are Drains as as often, even more often, traceable to drain gulleys and openings as to sewer of nuisance galleys or manholes. The drain and sewer gulleys are normally close to each other and the one gets blamed for what is due to the other.

low-level and

sewers-

5. The gradients of the low-level sewers-those below Queen's Road--are indeed as to the somewhat flat, but not so flat that they could not keep themselves free from deposit outfall if there were a copious flow through them, and if road-detritus and other improper their gra- substances were excluded from them. Indeed they do actually keep free from dients. sewage-deposit, properly so called.

The levels of the outfalls are lower than I intended them to be. I proposed that the centre line of the sewer, at its outlet on the Prava, should be at mean sea level, so that each sewer would be only filled to one-half its diameter for one-half of the year and during the remaining half there would be a free and unchecked flow of sewage through it, sufficient to remove any deposit which might precipitate, during the times at which the flow was checked by the rise of the tide.

The following are the levels of the inverts of the sewers at the several outfalls :---

The annexed plans Nos. 1 to 6 show the extent to which the various low-level sewers are tide-locked at mean high-water and mean sea level, lines being drawn to show respectively the distance to which the pipes are entirely filled and half filled by tidal water.

It is but right to say that the outfall sewers laid on the Praya Reclamation are temporary only, pending consolidation of the ground. In one or more cases, a 9′′ pipe receives the flow of one or more 18" or 21". This cannot fail to check the flow of sewage, and thus promote deposit. Under these circumstances the low- level sewers cannot be said to have had fair play up to the present, and will not until the Praya Reclamation is finally completed and consolidated.

6. I will freely admit that, were I to design the sewerage system over again, I The levels of should make the outfalls more numerous, place them at a higher level and give, if low. and possible, stecper gradients to the low-level sewers. I do not, however, consider that sewer gradi- it is necessary to make any alteration at present, certainly not until the Praya Reclamation is completed and consolidated. The sewers on the New Praya Re- clamation will for the most part surely require re-laying, and when the time comes for so doing, the question may be re-opened. By that time, the effect of copious flushing at low-water will have been settled by experiment.

7. As soon as pipes of the full diameter have been laid, temporarily or otherwise, Flushing the across the Reclamation, the effect of vigorous flushing should be tried. This experi- ment should be made on the sewers along Des Voeux and Connaught Roads running Point of com- from the eastward to the outfall at Queen Victoria Street.

A flushing tank containing say 3,000 gallons should be constructed beneath the Parade Ground near to the urinal now under construction. 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 probably be the most economical means of pumping. Possibly the electric motor

would, in all cases, be the most economical source of power. This flushing tank might indeed be filled with the sewage from the Peak. I am not, however, in favour of flushing sewers with scwage. The tank is apt to be a nuisance, as it requires occasional cleaning, but the system is often resorted to and might, if con- sidered advisable, be tried.

The contents of this tank should be discharged, alternately, down the two low- level sewers, a 12" 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 other.

Flushing cannot be effective until the outfall sewers across the New Praya Reclamation are of full diameter and free from obstruction.

                          It may also be necessary to provide a sluice in the diaphragm which is in the outfall manhole, to allow the flush to escape more ficely than the actual submerged pipe will permit. When not flushing, this sluice should be closed.

8. To thoroughly flush a sewer, a quantity of water should be provided water requir. sufficient to fill it half-full, or to the depth producing a self-cleansing velocity, for

about one-third of its length.

sys.cm.

The quantity required for flushing depends not merely on the diameter and length of the pipe, but on its inclination. If a pipe has a good self-cleansing gradient, but deposit occurs owing to insufficiency of the normal sewage flow, then it will suffice to fill it to cne-half or such depth as will give up a self-cleansing velocity for say one-fourth of its length.

     cne-fourth of its length. If, however, the pipe has a somewhat paltry gradient then the flush should be equal to its full contents for half its length, The bottom of the flush tank should be as high as possible above the head of the pipe and the outlet should be large enough to make the mean rate of discharge equal to the rate of discharge of the pipe to be flushed.

Extension of 9. If the experimental flushing already described proves successful, and if the necessity for flushing be not obviated Ly improvement in scavenging and in the construction of sewer gullies, then let it be extended to other outfall areas. In some, namely Nos. 3 and 4 outfall arcas, (ride plans 3 and 4), the sewers are so low that flushing may always be necessary or at least desirable. These should be the first to be taken in hard. In all cases, it would be casy to flush with sewage from above. It must, however, be remembered that autcmatic flushing tanks can- not be used for the low-level system. A flush discharged when the tide is above the level of the invert of the sewer is useless. Flushing, in the case of tide-locked sewers, must always take place at or about low-water.

Necessity for dragging

        Sewers. Want of supervision.

Objections to tile-locked

sewers.

10. I have reason to believe that chains and scrapers are dragged through sewers, probably to their detriment, more often than is necessary. The operation has become a matter of routine perpetuated owing to inadequate supervisory staff. A single European Overseer cannot be expected to inspect all the sewers in the City, and also look after construction work. He cannot possibly supervise all the gangs of coolies, 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. Conscquently gangs of ccolies are told off to drag in a certain district, and they do so, whether this operation is required or not. I have suggested a mcans, 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.

11. A sewer, partially or wholly tide-locked, is, according to modern experience, objectionable. Such a sewer, of necessity, violates one of the fundamental principles of sewer-design, namely, continuous onward fcw, from the gully or inlet at the Louse, to the outfall, or place of final disposal, without stoppage or stagnation.

Though the gradient of a sewer may be sufficient, when its cutlet is free, to establish a self-cleansing velocity, whenever the outlet becomes tide-locked, this condition is disturbed, the hydraulic gradient being reduced by the rise of the tide.

                    Running half full, with a free outlet, it would discharge 101 cubic feet per minute with a velocity of 246 feet per minute, or more than is necessary to prevent deposit.

When, however, the same volume of water fills the whole pipe the velocity will be reduced to 123 feet per minute, or barely sufficient to prevent deposit. A flow of only 3.6 cubic feet per minute filling the pipe to a depth of about 14 inch would give a velocity of 120 feet per minute. But the velocity of this stream would, when in consequence of the outlet being tide-locked it filled the whole pipe, he reduced to 10 feet per minute, which is wholly non-self-cleansing. Hence this sewer which receives a large quantity of sewage, would be self-cleansing, all the day through, if it discharged above high-water mark, but as it is, it is a sewer of deposit for the greater part of the day though, doubtless, it cleanses itself when the tide is below the level of the outfall.

preventing

12. The level of the Praya is so low that it is impracticable to place all outlets Methods of above high-water mark. The sewers would have to be so near to the surface that fide-locking. they would be liable to damage by traffic, and they would be too high to receive the sewage discharged from the house-sewers of tenements on the Praya.

The sewers on the Praya must be, for a great part of their length, below even mean sea level. The only way to prevent tide-locking is to exclude the sea water altogether, and to do so and at the same time prevent stagnation, will involve pumping. In many towns tanks are constructed to collect the sewage which is then discharged at or near the hour of low-water. This plan, always objectionable as it involves stagnation, cannot be adopted here on account of the grent variation in the range of the tide at neaps and springs, and of the diurnal variation in range. At certain periods one tide in the day almost disappears. The sudden discharge of the sewage stored during say 13 hours out of the 24 could not fail to produce an insufferable nuisance. Pumping must therefore be resorted to. If there is to be pumping then it will be well to pump to some distant outfall, and to intercept all sewage from the harbour frontage.

It would be most expensive and almost impracticable to conduct all sewage to one pumping station. There must, therefore, be two intercepting sewers, with their respective heads near to 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 economical, but an ordinary sewer, flowing partly full, would be most satisfactory though probably considerably more expensive. I am leaving on record a plan and section of the Western intercepting sewer in order to show how interception might be effected, if at any time it is considered desirable to carry it out.

The intercepting sewer when below mean sea level should be of cast iron. This is really the most economical material, for the difficulty of making a water- tight sewer of brick or stone-ware in wet ground is very great.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH SEPTEMBER, 1902.

I find that the maximum depth of the Western intercepting sewer at the pumping station just behind Kennedy Town would be about 10 feet below O.D. or 22 feet below ground. This is by no means an extravagant depth.

13. I have brought forward the question of complete interception mainly intercepting because I contemplated the possibility of its having to be adopted in Reports made in 1890, and arranged the design of sewers in a manner that would permit of its adoption. I look upon the construction of intercepting sewers as a counsel of per- fection. I do not recommend even the consideration of this project at the present moment. There are many other costly works, notably those for the augmentation of the water-supply, that must take precedence of any radical alteration of the sewerage system. I maintain that if matters remain in statu quo, no danger to the public health is involved.

The works

with the low-

There may be occasional nuisance, and, undoubtedly, the necessity for pe- riodical cleansing by means of chains and drags is a source of expense. But this is the worst that can result from the defects that I have noted. The said nuisance will not give rise to epidemics of disease and is of little moment, compared with the water famines which occur almost annually necessitating the introduction of the intermittent system.

14. The only works that need be contemplated for some years to come, in connection with the low-level sewers, are the re-laying of the sewers on the New level sewers. Praya Reclamation in all cases in which settlement has caused detrimental distortion and alteration of the originally projected level. This work should, however, be deferred until the New Reclamation has thoroughly settled, so that no further movement need be anticipated. Some sewers on even the Old Reclamation will require re-laying, notably those leading to the No. 1 outfall at Belcher's Point. Notwithstanding the fact that the Praya Wall in this locality was constructed many years ago, there is evidence to shew that settlement has taken place relatively recently, and that it may be going on even at present.

Summary of recommend- ations with regard to street

swers.

15. The recommendations which I have made, with regard to street sewers, in this and a previous report, may be summed up as follows:-

(a.) Complete the outfall sewers across the New Reclamation.

(.) Prevent by means of additional care in scavenging the introduction

of improper solids into the street sewer.

(c.) Trap all street sewer gulleys with improved traps and gratings. (d.) Make an experiment as to the effect of vigorous flushing at low

tides with well or sea water, on one section of the low-level sewers. If this experiment is successful, and leads to saving in working expenses, extend the same system to other sections.

(.) Close the ventilating openings in the sewer manholes. (ƒ.) If, contrary to expectation, ventilating openings or rather vents prove necessary let them be provided, either by means of the house sewer ventilating pipes, removing the intercepting traps, or by providing separate elevated vent-pipes carried up above the neighbouring buildings as suggested in a previous report.

(g.) Whenever the roots of trees cause obstructions, cut down the trees; or substitute cast iron pipes, with lead and yarn joints for stone- ware pipes.

HOUSE SEWERS.

It has come to my knowledge that considerable inconvenience has been experi- enced in the case of European houses in the upper levels of the City. These tene- ments are provided with a drain, as defined in my former report, as well as a house sewer, and it frequently happens that the grating over the inlet to the house sewer becomes obstructed and, in consequence, the sewage, properly so called, flows into the nullahs, causing a nuisance. It is difficult to suggest a complete remedy for this, for the arrangement must vary in each individual case. After all, the

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH SEPTEMBER, 1902.

matter is one that the Sanitary Board and the occupier should decide. The Board has doubtless powers to compel owners to abate nuisances. Matters would be simplified if, as recommended, the Sanitary Board has charge of the scavenging of nullahs. In the case of new houses, this difficulty will practically disappear if the rules set forth in the Standard Instructions which I propose to send out are observed. DRAINAGE.

 I have little to add to what I have said in my previous Report concerning the Drainage of the City. Before anything can be finally suggested a complete plan must be prepared of the drains and nullahs as they exist.

 The following suggestions may, however, be of use in the future consideration of this subject.

16. Drains may be classified as follows:-

(a.) Main drains or nullahs running direct down to the sea and carrying

water from the hills above.

(b.) Branch drains which run usually more or less in an East and West direction and convey water into the main drains or nullahs above defined.

 The aforesaid main drains or nullahs may be further sub-divided into two portions, namely, the flat or tidal portion which extends perhaps to Des Voeux Road or further inland and the hill portion which has an abundant gradient.

of nullahs.

 17. The following statement gives the levels of the several nullahs at their Tidal section outfalls as determined by Mr. XAVIER, Assistant Engineer, and the attached plan Levels of No. 7 shows the distances to which the sea-water backs up along the inverts at inverts. mean high-water and mean sea level respectively. It will be seen that the nullah- outlets have their inverts well below mean sea level and those of many are below ordinary low-water mark. Consequently these nullahs contain at their lower end, where they cross the Praya Reclamation, stagnant water contaminated by filth brought down from above as well as matter washed in by the tide.

There can be no doubt that it would have been better to have fixed the Invert-level inverts of the nullah outlets at or about mean sea level, so that they could be dry- should have scavenged daily. Why this was not done cannot now be ascertained. I fear that been fixed it is now fully late to effect any radical cure of the undoubted evils of the tide- locked nullahs.

19. Without having a complete record plan of drains and nullahs it is impos- sible to make any definite and finite recommendations as to the amelioration of the drainage system. When the scavenging of both sewerage and drainage systems is under one and the same Authority, a material improvement will probably result.

20. I will now briefly recapitulate the recommendations which have been made mendations. With regard to drainage in this and previous reports.

Recapitala-

tion of recom-

Sewerage al Kowloon.

Arrange- ment of surface drains.

(a.) Let covered drains or nullahs be avoided to the utmost extent

possible.

(b.) Let the inverts of drains, at their outlets to the sea, be at mean

sea level or higher if possible.

(c.) In the case of flat areas near to the sea, whenever covered drains are necessary, as in the case of the Praya Reclamation and other Reclamations, let them run by the shortest possible route to special outlets to the sea, and do not attempt to connect them to main drains or nullahs which are tide-locked.

(d.) In laying out new districts let the alignment and levels of streets be so planned as to minimise the length and size of underground drains. (e.) Let it be remembered that the main object of sewers is to keep sewage out of the drains. It is more important to exclude sewage from the drain than rain-water from the sewer. With the gradients which obtain in Hongkong it is almost always possible to provide storm overflows should any sewer become gorged with rain-water. (f.) Let a complete Record Plan be prepared of the drains of Hongkong, covered or otherwise; this being in existence a definite scheme may be prepared.

21. I have not in this and other reports concerning the sewerage referred to Kowloon. I have altogether refrained from so doing because I look upon the sewerage system of Kowloon as provisional or temporary only.

It may not

be necessary to carry out a complete scheme of sewerage for some years to come. Nevertheless, I am of opinion that a definite scheme should be prepared and adopted so that all work done may ultimately fall in with the sanctioned scheme and so that nothing done, or to be done in future, will require to be undone.

22. I have recommended that surface water be carried off to the utmost extent possible by means of the side-channels of the streets, or other open drains. There is a little difficulty in so doing in the matter of intersections of streets.

One way of dealing with the matter is shewn in the following sketch:-

The channels of C D are carried across the street A B in a channel very much flattened, so as to cause the minimum inconvenience to vehicular traffic. Any dry- weather flow is intercepted by sewer galleys G G G and G. Still this arrangement is far from satisfactory. The depression at the intersection of the two streets is an impediment to traffic, especially in the case of tramways. Should the gulleys get stopped, a stagnant mess is the result. To make this arrangement work well it is practically necessary to concrete or asphalt the whole area at the intersection of the crossing streets.

Assuming that scavenging-lanes are recognisel, as a necessity, then the difficulty may be got over, by accepting them as the main storm-water drains.

The area to be drained should be sub-divided into alternate streets and narrow scavenging-lanes. The alignment of these should follow, approximately, the greatest slope of the ground. These would be intersected at right angles by other streets. Then all that is necessary to make the said scavenging-lanes serve as storm-water drains, is to lower their surface some 2 to 4 feet below the level of the floors of the adjacent buildings, and of the streets. The following diagram gives an idea of this arrangement :-

When the combined scavenging-lane and drain passes under a cross street, it would obviously take the form of a bridge or culvert, which would, however, be large enough to admit a man for the purpose of scavenging, access to each length of lane being gained by a flight of steps. The lane would have a channel or chan- nels formed at its centre or sides. These channels would conduct the sewage to trapped sewer gulleys, communicating with a sewer laid under the scavenging-lane. Thus in dry weather or even during moderate rain, the scavenging passage would serve its normal purpose, namely, the removal of excreta and dry refuse, and could always be scavenged and kept clean. In heavy rain it would serve as a storm- water channel. Care, however, must be taken to proportion the width of the scaveng- ing passage and its depth, below the adjacent building lots to the maximum quantity of water that it may have to carry during heavy rain. This arrangement has the great merit that it reduces the lengths of covered drains to mere bridges or culverts. At the same time all street obstructions at crossings are avoided. Such arrange- ment has been adopted in the case of some land recently laid out for building purposes in Trinidad. It is, I am aware, one that cannot be carried out everywhere; but I give it as a suggestion, for it may be applicable to the Eastern Reclamation, Kow- loon, and in the New Territory. Where applicable, it will offer many advantages over the present system of covered drains.

REGULATIONS

Made by the Officer Administering the Government in Council, under

authority of section 21 of Ordinance 29 of 1902.

This 5th day of September. 1909.

     1. The price of water supplied by meter and charged for as "excess consumption" will be, until further notice, at the rate of fifty cents (50 e.) per one thousand (1,000) gallons. In cases where unfiltered water is supplied half the above rate will be charged. Provided that the special rates charged in the case of water supplied to certain Military and Naval Establishments shall remain in force.

     2. Water shall only be taken from a public fountain in buckets or other suitable receptacles, and in such a manner as to prevent its flow into any drain or side channel.

     3. No hose pipe, pipe, tube, shoot, or other contrivance of any nature whatsoever shall be attached, either temporarily or permanently, to any public fountain.

     4. No automatic self-closing valve or other automatic appliance attached to or forming a part of any public fountain shall be interfered with so as to prevent, either permanently or temporarily, its

automatic action.

     5. The following rent shall be paid into the Treasury, quarterly, for the use of meters; the quarters shall be considered to commence on the first day of January, the first day of April, the first day of July and the first day of October :-

A proportional part of such reat shall be paid for any portion of a quarter.

     The Water Authority reserves the right to prescribe the size of ineter which shall be fixed for measuring the supply to any premises.

6. Meters will be read at such times as the Water Authority may direct.

Whenever a meter is

read a memorandum of the reading will be left as the tenement supplied through it.

7. For the purpose of calculating the quarterly consumption, the difference between two readings of the meter shall be taken.

     The first reading may be that observed on any day not more than ten days before or after the calendar date of the commencement of the quarter, or, in the case of a newly-fixed meter, the first reading of the meter.

     The second reading may be that taken on any day not more than ten days before or after the calendar date of the termination of the quarter, or if the meter is removed or the supply closed during the quarter then the last reading shall be taken; and the difference between the two readings shall be taken as the quarter's water consumption. If two or more meters have been in use during the quarter then the quarter's consumption shall be the sum of the quantities indicated by the meters:

Provided always that the reading used as the last reading of any quarter shall be used as the first reading of the ensuing quarter.

1658

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 5TH SEPTEMBER, 1902.

    8. If a meter be found to be out of order, or if it be removed for repair or alteration, the fact will be noted on the memorandum, mentioned in Regulation 6. On fixing a new meter or re-fixing the old meter a second memorandum will be left at the tenement. The consumption for the time that the meter was out of order or for the time that the service was without a meter will be calculated according to the average daily rate of consumption that obtained during the period between any two successive readings, whilst the meter was in good order, immediately preceding the removal of the meter.

9. If the consumer doubts the accuracy of the meter, which measures the water supplied to the tenement owned or occupied by him, then the meter will, on demand, be tested by the Water Authority. The consumer, or any person appointed by him, may be present when the meter is tested. The results of the test will be binding both on the Water Authority and on the consumer; and the quantity of water indicated by the meter, from the first reading of the quarter as defined in Regulation 7, shall be corrected according to the results of the test.

If the meter be found to indicate correctly or if it be found to indicate too little, then a fee of $10 shall be paid for testing.

If the meter be found to indicate too much then no fee shall be paid for testing.

10. Meters will be maintained by the Water Authority, and all repairs, except those caused by wilful damage or negligence, will be made by the Water Authority free of cost to the consumer.

    11. The value of the amount of water consumed during the quarter will be ascertained and calculated in accordance with Regulations 1, 7 and 8 as the case may be. The owner of any tenement to which a metered supply is given shall be liable to pay for that supply until he has given notice to the Water Authority in writing of his wish to have the supply discontinued.

12. The price to be paid for the construction, alteration or repair of any services made at the request of the owner or occupier shall be in accordance with the list of prices in Schedule 2. The Water Authority shall, as soon as practicable, after the completion thereof, present an account to the person who so requested in the form A in Schedule 1. The amount as shown in such account shall be paid into the Colonial Treasury within fourteen days of the presentation of the account.

13. In all cases of metered supplies an account shall be delivered quarterly of the amount to be paid for the water consumed in the preceding quarter and for the meter rent. The account shall be in the form B in Schedule 1, and the amount thereof shall be paid into the Colonial Treasury within fourteen days of the presentation of the account.

14. The suspension of the water supply may be effected by severing the pipe, conveying the supply to be suspended, or by such other means as the Water Authority may deem necessary.

    15. All new services and alterations to old services are to be done in accordance with the instruc- tions of the Water Authority.

The Water Authority whilst consulting the wishes of the consumer, as far as practicable, reserves the right to determine finally all matters concerning the construction or alteration of services, such as the size of the connection to be given, the diameter of the pipe to be used, the manner in which it is to be laid, and the number, size, pattern and position of the taps.

16. Notice of intention to construct a new service, or to alter or extend any existing one must be given to the Water Authority by filling in a printed form which may be obtained, on application, at The Office of the Water Authority. This notice (form () must be delivered at the said Office, address- ed to the Water Authority, at least three clear days before work is commenced.

    17. All new services or alterations, extensions, or repairs to existing services must be carried out to the satisfaction of the Water Authority. Pipes and fittings of approved quality only are to be used. Samples may be seen at the Office of the Water Authority.

18. No pipes, valves, or other fittings forming part of a service shall be covered up until they have been inspected and tested by the Water Authority. As soon as a service has been inspected and approved, it will be connected with the water-works, and the supply will commence. The connection will be made by the Water Authority's servants only.

19. The following fee shall be charged for each connection made or re-made with the water-

works:-

Not exceeding 1 inch in diameter,

    As soon as possible after the receipt of this form, duly filled in and signed, the Water Authority will cause the premises to be inspected and will arrange with the owner or occupier as to the manner of construction of the proposed service.

21. The applicant for a service having signified to the Water Authority his acquiescence in the final arrangement proposed by the Water Authority, the service will be constructed accordingly.

22. The Water Authority does not undertake to restore any ornamental floors, wall-surfaces or other decorations, which may be disturbed by the work.

23. The Water Authority will not be responsible for the maintenance or repair of any service constructed by the same, after the date of the account for construction.

24. The Water Authority, notwithstanding that its requirements have been complied with as regards services, does not hold itself liable for any damage that may arise in premises by bursting or overflowing. Nor will the Water Authority by any permission or act extend its responsibility beyond the main-pipes in the public thoroughfares.

25. All pipes, used in the construction, alteration, extension or repair of services must be of cast- iron of approved thickness and quality or wrought-iron, both to be coated with bituminous composition, or galvanized wrought-iron piping (the latter, however, is not recommended).

    26. Wrought-iron service pipes must be of the quality known as "Best Water Piping" and must be of the following weights:-

27. Cast-iron pipes must be substantially joined with lead and yarn. Wrought-iron pipes must have screwed joints and sockets.

28. Lead pipes will only be permitted in new services when the water which passes through them cannot be used for drinking or cooking purposes (down-pipes to water closets or overflow pipes from cisterns, for example): Provided always that owners of premises which are now provided with lead- services will not be compelled to remove them unless in the opinion of the Water Authority they are too weak, or otherwise defective.

29.

A brass screw-down stop-cock must be fixed behind each ball-valve.

32. The overflow pipes of all cisterns must be brought out to the outside of the building and shall terminate in some conspicuous position, so that any leakage may be easily detected. No overflow, pipe from any cistern shall on any account be connected with any drain or sewer or with the waste pipe of any bath or sink or with the overflow from

35. No overflow pipe shall be altered without the permission of the Water Authority.

36. In case of any defect being discovered in the service to any tenement, the Water Authority shall serve notice upon the owner or occupier of such tenement in the form E in Schedule 1.

40. Should it come to the knowledge of the Water Authority that the water supplied from the water-works is being wasted or misused from any cause whatever within any tenement, the Water Authority may forthwith disconnect the service supplying such tenement from the water-works and shall not re-connect such service until he is satisfied that reasonable means have been taken to prevent such waste or misuse.

41. No water shall be drawn from the water-works except from public fountains and house services in the manner laid down in these regulations without the written permission of the Water Authority, except in the case of fire when water may be obtained from the fire hydrants fixed in the streets for that purpose.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 1st October, 1902.

POST OFFICE NOTICE.

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

Parcel Post with the United States of America viâ London.

Notice is hereby given that the Postmaster General of the United Kingdom has intimated to the Hongkong Postal Administration that on and from the 1st September instant an exchange of Parcel Post will take place between the United Kingdom and the United States of America.

Parcels for the United States may be posted in Hongkong and at the British Postal Agencies in China to be despatched viâ London by British Packets.

The service between the United Kingdom and the United States has been established in co-operation with the American Express Company, who arrange for the conveyance throughout the United States in both directions, while the Postmaster General of the United Kingdom, on the other hand, is responsible for the conveyance to and from the United States.

1760

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, 3RD OCTOBER, 1902.

MODE OF PREPAYMENT.

3. The postal charges must be prepaid by means of stamps affixed to the cover of the parcel. It is open to the sender-

I. To prepay in the same way the non-postal charges other than Customs duties. II. While prepaying the charges specified under heading I., to assume responsibility for the Customs charges, so that the parcel may be delivered free of cost to the recipient. In this case it will be necessary to proceed in the manner described in paragraph 202 of the Hongkong Postal Guide. This arrangement ensures a speedier conveyance, since or- dinary parcels will remain at the New York Custom House until the addressees have remitted thither the amount of duty and other charges upon them.

The charges not prepaid by the sender will be collected from the addressee.

PARCELS FORWARDED IN Bond.

   4. The sender may without extra charge direct that a parcel be sent through the New York Custom House in bond, for Customs examination at any of the "United States Ports of Entry," or Inland Custom Houses, of which a list is given below. This arrangement also does away with the delay at New York referred to in the preceding paragraph, but, on the other hand, the addressees will have to make arrangements for the delivery of parcels so treated after they have been cleared at the Custom House of the Inland Port of Entry.

to....

""

The sender of a parcel intended to be forwarded in bond must mark it plainly "In bond naming the Inland Port of Entry chosen, and the same words must also appear in the same handwriting on the Customs declaration which accompanies the parcel.

DELIVERY.

   5. In the United States, as in many British Colonies and Foreign Countries, parcels are not in all cases delivered at the houses of the recipients. They will, however, be delivered at all places within the delivery of any Express Company of the United States, and when they are not delivered, a notice of their arrival will be sent to the addressees, who must then arrange to obtain them at the point where they are lying.

GENERAL REGULATIONS.

   6. The regulations of the Foreign and Colonial Parcel Post apply generally to this service also. But attention should be paid to the points of difference stated below.

CUSTOMS DECLARATIONS.

7. The non-adhesive form of Customs declaration must be used. the parcel is to be sent in bond to an Inland Port of Entry, it must be endorsed as directed in para. 4. Two copies are required. If Moreover, if the value of the goods contained in the parcel exceeds $100 (Gold) or £20. 10s. the declaration must be made before a United States Consul on forms supplied by him.

Will the Honourable Colonial Secretary inform the Council-

(1.) Whether the attention of the Government has been drawn to the account of the hearing

of an assault case before the Police Magistrate on 5th instant; and

(2.) Whether the Government proposes to take any action with reference to certain allega- tions in the evidence given in the said case, which bear upon the question of the integrity of a public servant?

The Colonial Secretary replied.

QUESTION.-Mr. SHEWAN, pursuant to notice, asked the following question:--

Can the Police not take measures to prevent chair coolies from deserting their chairs when most

required on occasions such as the Coronation night for instance?

Are the chair coolies allowed to leave their chairs lying unprotected on the public street? If not, can the Police not take the number of chairs so deserted and have the coolies belonging to

such chairs punished by fine or the licensee punished by forfeiture of his licence?

If the Police have no power to do this, will the Government not bring in an Ordinance giving

the Police such power?

In view of the present great scarcity of chairs, will the Government not license a further large number of chairs either direct or through a contractor and continue to do so until the supply fully equals the demand?

Can the Government not appoint stands for chairs and rickshas and instruct the Police to pre-

vent the coolies from leaving the stands without sufficient reason?

If not will the Government farm out all the chairs and rickshas to a contractor who could deposit

a sum of money as a guarantee for the good behaviour of the coolies?

GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.---No. 611.

The following Report on the Blue Book for 1991 was laid before the Legislative Council at a Meeting held this day, and is published.

By Command,

Colonial Secretary's Office, Hongkong, 9th October, 1902.

REPORT ON THE BLUE BOOK FOR 1901,

F. H. MAY, Colonial Secretary.

No. 300.

GOVERNMENT HOUSE,

Hongkong, 29th August, 1902.

 SIR,-I have the honour to submit the following general Report in connection with the Blue Book for 1901.

I-FINANCES.

 The Revenue for the year 1901, exclusive of Land Sales, was $3,973,578, or $636,523 more than the estimate; inclusive of Land Sales the total revenue was $4,213,893. The Expenditure, exclusive of the cost of Public Works Extraordinary, was $3,723,219, or $455,817 more than the estimate; including the heavy outlay on Public Works Extraordinary, the total expenditure was $4,111,722. There was thus an excess of Revenue over Expenditure of $102,171.

 The sources of Revenue which proved most productive and were chiefly res- ponsible for the excess of actual over estimated receipts were the opium monopoly, the assessed taxes, chair and jinrieksha and some other forms of licences, the Post Office, and stone quarries.

 The items which vielded a smaller sum than the estimate were not numerous, and represented no very large amounts, with the exception of the item of New Territory Land Revenue, from which a sum of $140,000 had been anticipated and only $28,783 received. This return, however, compares well with that of 1900, when only $1,300 was collected from this source. As has already been pointed out in New Territory Reports, the difficulties in connection with the settlement of land claims make the collection of Crown Rent a slow process.

 The figures quoted above do not represent the whole of the revenue derived from the New Territory during 1901, as they do not include its share in the consi- derable increases to general Revenue derived from the opium monopoly and other miscellaneous sources.

The amount realised from land sales was much less than that realised in 1900. In that year more than $816,000 was received from this source; in 1901 only $240,315, or nearly $160,000 less than the estimate.

There was a considerable decrease in coal imports as compared with 1900, but the amount imported in 1909 was far above the average. The coal imports for 1898, also, were stated to have been abnormally large, but the returns for last year show an increase as compared with that year of nearly 100,000 tons.

The principal features to be remarked in the reported trade of the Port for the year 1901 are:-

(i.) A decrease in the Coal imports of 12.3%. ii.) A decrease in the Cotton imports of 27.8%.

(iii.) A decrease in the Rice imports of 8%.

(iv.) A decrease in the Timber imports of 18.7%.

(v.) A decrease in the Hemp imports of 42.3%.

(vi.) An increase in the General imports of 9.8%.

(vii.) Also small incresses in case and bulk Kerosine and in Liquid Fuel.

The nett decrease in import cargo is 123,335 tons or 3.4%.

In exports there appears to be an increase of 150,823 tons or 7.7 %.

In transit cargo, a decrease of 9,163 tous or 10.4 %.

In the interior

The Import Trade was very depressed throughout the year. of China there was much poverty, and trade was hampered by unauthorised exactions on goods beyond the confines of the Treaty Ports. The fall in the exchange of silver and the high values ruling on the home markets-especially in raw cotton and all cotton fabrics-also militated severely against this branch of trade.
