6. Where the Judicial Committee agree to advise His Majesty to grant special leave to appeal, they shall, in their Report, specify the amount of the security for costs (if any) to be lodged by the Petitioner, and shall, unless the circumstances of a particular case render such a course unnecessary, provide for the transmission of the Record by the Registrar to the Registrar of the Privy Council and for such further matters as the justice of the case may require. Unless otherwise ordered the security shall be lodged at any time before the Appellant enters an Appearance.

9. Where a Petitioner obtains leave to appeal in formâ pauperis, he shall not be required to lodge security for the costs of the Respondent or to pay any Council Office fees.

10. A Petitioner whose Petition for leave to appeal in formâ pauperis is dismissed may, notwithstanding such dismissal, be excused from paying the Council Office fees usually chargeable to a Petitioner in respect of a Petition for leave to appeal, if His Majesty in Council, on the advice of the Judicial Committee, shall think fit so to order.

Record and Appearance by Appellant.

11. As soon as the Appeal has been admitted, whether by an Order of the Court appealed from or by an Order of His Majesty in Council granting special leave to appeal, the Appellant shall without delay take all necessary steps to have the Record transmitted to the Registrar of the Privy Council, and the Registrar shall, with all convenient speed, certify to the Registrar of the Privy Council that the Respondent has received notice, or is otherwise aware, of the Order of the Court appealed from admitting the Appeal, or of the Order of His Majesty in Council giving the Appellant special leave to appeal, and has also received notice, or is otherwise aware, of the dispatch of the Record to England. Where an Appellant who has obtained special leave to appeal by an Order of His Majesty in Council fails to have the Record transmitted to the Registrar of the Privy Council with due diligence, the Registrar of the Privy Council shall call upon the Appellant to explain his default, and if no explanation is offered, or if the explanation offered is, in the opinion of the said Registrar insufficient, the said Registrar may issue a Summons to the Appellant calling upon him to show cause before the Judicial Committee at the time to be named in the said Summons why the special leave to appeal granted should not be rescinded.

26. The Registrar of the Privy Council shall, as soon as the proof prints. of the Record are ready, give notice to all parties who have entered an Appearance requesting them to attend at the Registry of the Privy Council at a time to be named in such notice in order to examine the said proof prints and compare the same with the certified Record, and shall, for that purpose, furnish each of the said parties with one proof print. After the examination has been completed, the Appellant shall, without delay, lodge his proof print, duly corrected and (so far as necessary) approved by the Respondent, and the Registrar of the Privy Council shall thereupon cause the copies of the Record to be struck off from such proof print.

27. Each party who has entered an Appearance shall be entitled to receive, for his own use, six copies of the Record.

28. Subject to any special direction from the Judicial Committee to the contrary, the costs of and incidental to the printing of the Record shall form part of the costs of the Appeal, but the costs of and incidental to the printing of any document objected to by one party, in accordance with Rule 18, shall, if such document is found on the taxation of costs to be unnecessary or irrelevant, be disallowed to, or borne by, the party insisting on including the same in the Record.

Schedule A.

Rules as to Printing.

137

I. All Records and other proceedings in Appeals or other matters pending before His Majesty in Council or the Judicial Committee which are required by the above Rules to be printed shall be printed in the form known as Demy Quarto.

II. The size of the

inches in height and 8

paper used shall be such that the sheet, when folded and trimmed, will be 11 inches in width.

↓

III. The type to be used in the text shall be Pica type, but Long Primer shall be used in printing accounts, tabular matter, and notes. The number of lines in each page of Pica type shall be 47 or thereabouts, and every tenth line shall be numbered in the margin.

IV. Records shall be arranged in two parts in the same volume, where practicable, viz. :-

Judgments, Decrees, &c., of the Courts below, down to the Order admitting, the Appeal. Part II. The exhibits and documents.

V. The Index to Part I shall be in chronological order, and shall be placed at the beginning of the volume.

The Index to Part II shall follow the order of the exhibit mark, and shall be placed immediately after the Index to Part I.

VI. Part I shall be arranged strictly in chronological order, i.e., in the same order as the index.

Part II shall be arranged in the most convenient way for the use of the Judicial Committee, as the circumstances of the case require. The documents shall be printed as far as suitable in chronological order, mixing Plaintiff's and Defendant's documents together when necessary.

(a) a series of correspondence, or

(b) proceedings in a suit other than the one under appeal,

shall be kept together. The order in the Record of the documents in Part II will probably be different from the order of the Index, and the proper page number of each document shall be inserted in the printed Index.

　The parties will be responsible for arranging Record in proper order for the Judicial Committee, and in difficult cases Counsel may be asked to settle it.

VII. The documents in Part I shall be numbered consecutively.

The documents in Part II shall not be numbered, apart from the exhibit mark.

　VIII. Each document shall have a heading which shall consist of the number or exhibit mark and the description of the document in the Index, without the date.

　(7) The marginal note of the document shall then appear consisting of the number and the descrip- tion of the document in the Index, with the date, except in the case of oral evidence.

(c) In the case of oral evidence, "Plaintiff's evidence" or "Defendant's evidence" shall appear beneath the name of the Court, and then the marginal note consisting of the number in the Iudex and be. re-examinatioa," as the case may the witness's na:ne, with "examination," cross-examination," or

　　　　A long series of documents, such as accounts, rent rolls, inventories, &c., shall not be printed in full, unless Counsel so advise, but the parties shall agree to short extracts being printed as specimens.

　　　　　XI. In cases where maps sent from abroad are of an inconvenient size or unsuitable in character, the Appellant shall, in agreement with the Respondent, prepare in England, from the materials sent from abroad, maps drawn properly to scale and of reasonable size, showing, as far as possible, the claims of the respective parties, in different colours.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, APRIL 14, 1927.

　　　The object of the code is to give at least 24 hours warning of a gale (Force 8 by Beaufort Scale, or 40-45 m.p.h., mean velocity by Dines Anemometer) and also warnings of expected changes in the direction and force of the wind. Owing however to the uncertain movements of typhoons and to insufficient telegraphic observations, it will occasionally happen that signals 2 to 5 may be displayed without a gale occurring at Hong Kong, or even Gap Rock, but the reverse is not likely to happen, except in the case of typhoons forming in the vicinity and travelling rapidly towards Hong Kong, or should the direction of motion of a located typhoon alter, or its rate of progression increase, abnor- mally.

　　　Signal No. 1 is intended as a warning to "Stand By" and watch for the next signal. When it is hoisted after a black signal has been displayed it will mean that, on account of a change in the track of the typhoon, or for some other reason, a gale is no longer expected from the direction indi- cated by the last signal, and that another black signal may possibly bé hoisted later.

COLONIAL SECRETARY'S DEPARTMENT.

No. 284. The following is published for general information.

By a notice published in the London Gazette on the 15th February, 1927, the Arbitrator appointed under Clause 4 of the Annex to Section IV. of Part X. of the Treaty of Versailles to assess the amount of claims by British nationals growing out of acts committed by the German Government, or by any German Authorities, since 31st July, 1914, and before the 4th August, 1914, has prescribed that, in the case of claimants resident in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, all such claims must be lodged with him at 2, Cavendish Square, London, W.1, before the expiration of two months from the date of the publication of the notice, i.e., 15th February, 1927.

In the case of British nationals resident in Hong Kong the period of two months from the date of publication of the notice is extended to 30th June, 1927.

　　　All claimants who have claims of this nature should submit their claims to the Arbitrator in triplicate. The claims should be lodged by the claimants themselves, or by their solicitors, or other duly authorised Agents, acting for them on their behalf.

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MAY 13, 1927.

　　　　No. 285.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th day of May, 1927, to enquire into the circumstances attending the collision between the British Steamship Anjou and the British Steamship Wing On, is published for general information.

FINDING.

We find that on the evening of April 20th, 1927, the S.S. Wing On of Hong Kong Official No. 133251 of which C. Mutton, number of whose Certificate of Competency is No. 034605 was master and S.S. Anjou of Hong Kong Official No. 135104 of which J. Webster, number of whose Certificate of Competency is No. 043964 was master, were anchored off Wang Mun Creek, the vessel being, Wing On about 1 cable from the South Bank with the Anjou about or of a cable on her Starboard beam. At about 8.30 p.m. both vessels got under way, the Wing On slightly ahead of the Anjou. The Wing On proceeded to pass ahead of the Anjou under port helm. Meanwhile the Anjou started to turn to the South under engines and helm at about the time when the Wing On was across her bows. Wing On turning under helm approached the North Bank and it is our opinion that the Master of the Wing On underestimated his distance from this bank and endeavoured to turn sharply. The wind from the N.E. took hold of his bow and gave him a heavier swing than he was aware of. This swing he attempted to correct with his engines and caused him to assume that the Anjou was making sternway towards him. By this time Anjou had completed her turn to the East and was struck by the bows of the Wing On on the stern in the fore and aft line. Having examined the stern of the Anjou we have come to the conclusion that it was an end on blow and that the Anjou had headway on at the time of impact. We are of opinion that the Master of the Wing On was in error in that he being the overtaking ship came into collision with the stern of the ship ahead but we do not consider that this in any way exempts the master of the Anjou from blame in that observing the Wing On extremely close to his stern he took absolutely no precautions to avoid collision as he might have done by putting both his engines to full speed ahead. We therefore adjudge both Captain Mutton and Captain Webster to be censured. We are astounded at the manner in which the Master and Chief Engineer Mr. J. W. McNaught of the S.S. Anjou appeared to regard their respective duties. They appeared to be passengers in the ship and to take no interest whatever in their respective responsibilities. We therefore adjudge them both to be most severely reprimanded.

Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hong Kong, this 5th day of May, 1927.

The Governor of the State of Victoria, in the Commonwealth of Australia, being satisfied that reciprocal provisions have been made by the Legislature of Hong Kong (the same being a part of His Majesty's Dominions outside the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth of Australia) for the enforcement within such part of judgments as defined by section 2 of the Supreme Court Act 1923, so far as the same relate to Victorian judgments, orders, and awards, do now, under the powers conferred by section 3 of the Judgments (Reciprocity) Act 1925, by and with the advice of the Executive Council, declare Hong Kong to be a reciprocating State for the purpose of the Judgments (Reciprocity) Acts, and that the said Acts shall extend and apply to all parts of Hong Kong.

No. 321.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 18th and 19th day of May, 1927, to enquire into the circumstances attending the collision between the British Steamship Moonshine and the Chinese Steamship Leung. Kwong, is published for general information.

27th May, 1927.

W. T. SOUTHORN,

Colonial Secretary.

FINDING.

We find that the Moonshine a British ship of 33 tons nett of which Li Hung is the Coxswain was at the Northern Entrance of the Kap Sing Mun Pass proceeding from Liu Tin to Hong Kong at about 7.30 p.m. on 9th May, 1927. Her speed was about 6 knots.

　　　　At the same time the Leung Kwong a passenger steamer of 398 tons nett under the Chinese flag was at the Southern Entrance to the Pass bound for Wangmun at a speed of about 8 knots. Her Master was James Wilson who holds a British Certificate of Com- petency as Master.

　　　　The Leung Kwong passed close round Kap Sing Island and altered course across the Pass towards it's Western Shore, having signalled her intention of doing so by sounding 2 blasts.

　　　　The Moonshine simultaneously proceeded along the Western side of the Channel and the vessels collided. The Leung Kwong was struck on the starboard bow by the stern of the Moonshine and sank in less than ten minutes.

　　　　Prior to the sinking of the Leung Kwong the Moonshine proceeded alongside her and embarked a large number of the passengers and crew.

The collision occurred close to the Western shore of the Pass.

The S.S. On Lee and the S.S. Kwong Fook Cheong who were in the vicinity were instrumental in saving a large number of lives.

　　　　The Court finds that the Moonshine was navigated in a proper manner and that no blame is attributable to the Coxswain of the ship.

　　　　Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hong Kong, this 19th day of May, 1927.

SIR,-I have the honour to inform you that, in a number of recent cases of pension claims by British subjects resident outside the United States, documents forwarded to His Majesty's Embassy at Washington for submission to the United States authorities as evidence in support of the claims have not been authenticated and that considerable delay in reaching a settlement has been occasioned by the necessity of returning them. for completion.

2.

　　　　I shall be glad therefore if, in cases where documents are intended for submission. to the United States Government in connection with pension and kindred claims, they may be properly authenticated before being sent to His Majesty's Embassy.

The extradition shall take place only if the evidence be found sufficient, according to the laws of the State applied to, either to justify the committal of the prisoner for trial, in case the crime or offence had been committed in the territory of the same State, or to prove that the prisoner is the identical person convicted by the courts of the State which makes the requisition, and that the crime or offence of which he has been convicted is one in respect of which extradition could, at the time of such conviction, have been granted by the State applied to; and no criminal shall be surrendered until after the expiration of fifteen days from the date of his committal to prison to await the warrant for his surrender.

ARTICLE 12.

　　In the examinations which they have to make in accordance with the foregoing stipulations, the authorities of the State applied to shall admit as valid evidence the sworn depositions or the affirmations of witnesses taken in the other State, or copies thereof, and likewise the warrants and sentences issued therein, or copies thereof, and certificates of, or judicial documents stating the fact of a conviction, provided the same are authen- ticated as follows:

1. A warrant, or copy thereof, must purport to be signed by a judge, magis- trate, or officer of the other State, or purport to be certified under the hand of a judge, magistrate or officer of the other State to be a true copy thereof, as the case may require.

2. Depositions or affirmations, or the copies thereof, must purport to be certi- fied, under the hand of a judge, magistrate, or officer of the other State, to be the original depositions or affirmations, or to be true copies thereof, as the case may require.

3. A certificate of, or judicial document stating the fact of a conviction must purport to be certified by a judge, magistrate, or officer of the other State.

In every case such warrant, deposition, affirmation, copy, certificate, or judicial document must be authenticated either by the oath of some witness, or by being sealed with the official seal of the Minister of Justice, or some other minister of the other State, or by any other mode of authentication for the time being permitted by the law of the State to which the application for extradition is made.

ARTICLE 13.

ARTICLE 14.

If sufficient evidence for the extradition be not produced within two months from the date of the apprehension of the fugitive, or within such further time as the State applied to, or the proper tribunal thereof, shall direct, the fugitive shall be set at liberty.

ARTICLE 15.

All articles seized which were in the possession of the person to be surrendered at the time of his apprehension, and any articles that may serve as a proof of the crime or offence shall be given up when the extradition takes place, in so far as this may be permitted by the law of the State granting the extradition:

ARTICLE 16.

　　　　Each of the High Contracting Parties shall defray the expenses occasioned by the arrest within its territories, the detention, and the conveyance to its frontier, of the persons whom it may have consented to surrender in pursuance of the present treaty.

ARTICLE 17.

　　　　The stipulations of the present treaty shall be applicable, so far as the laws permit, to all His Britannic Majesty's Dominions, except to the self-governing Dominions herein- after named-that is to say, the Dominion of Canada, the Commonwealth of Australia (including for this purpose l'apua and Norfolk Island), the Dominion of New Zealand, the Union of South Africa, the Irish Free State, and Newfoundland-and India, provided always that the said stipulations shall be applicable to any of the above-named Domi- nions or India in respect of which notice to that effect shall have been given on behalf of the Government of such Dominion or India by His Britannic Majesty's Representative at Kaunas (Kovno), and provided also that it shall be competent for either of the Contract- ing Parties to terminate separately the application of this treaty to any of the above- named Dominions or India by a notice to that effect not exceeding one year and not less than six months.

ARTICLE 18.

　　　　The requisition for a surrender of a fugitive criminal, who has taken refuge in any of His Britannic Majesty's self-governing Dominions, Colonies, or Possessions to which this treaty applies shall be made to the Governor-General, Governor, or chief authority of such self-governing Dominion, Colony, or Possession by the appropriate consular officer of the Republic of Lithuania.

　　　　Such requisition may be disposed of, subject always, as nearly as may be, and far as the law of such self-governing Dominion, Colony, or Possession will allow, to the provisions of this treaty, by the competent authorities of such self-governing Dominion, Colony, or Possession, provided nevertheless that, if an order for the committal of the fugitive criminal to prison to await surrender shall be made, the said Governor-General, Governor, or chief authority, may, instead of issuing a warrant for the surrender of such fugitive, refer the matter to His Britannic Majesty's Government.

　　　　Requisitions for the surrender of a fugitive criminal emanating from any self-govern- ing Dominion, Colony, or Possession of His Britannic Majesty shall be governed, as far as possible, by the rules laid down in the preceding articles of the present treaty..

EXECUTIVE ORDER.

DOCUMENTS REQUIRED OF BONA FIDE ALIEN SEAMEN ENTERING THE

UNITED STATES AS PASSENGERS.

By virtue of the authority vested in me by the Act of Congress approved May 22, 1918, as extended by the Act of Congress of March 2, 1921, I hereby prescribe the following regulations governing the entry of seamen as passengers :-

(I) Alien seamen whose occupational status as such is found to be bona fide enter- ing the ports of the United States solely in the pursuit of their calling as seamen may be admitted temporarily in the discretion of the Secretary of Labor and under regulations prescribed by him without passports or visas if arriving in the United States under the following circumstances : ‹

1. As seamen who were members of the crew of an American vessel, which has been sold and delivered abroad, when the contract of employment provides for the return of the crew or the laws of the United States provide for their return to an American port;

2. As individual seamen returned to the United States in accordance

with the terms of the articles of the outward voyage;

3. As shipwrecked or castaway seamen rescued by or transferred to a

vessel bound to an American port;

4. As alien (American) seamen who are consular passengers, or are repatriated without expense to the United States Government follow- ing and in accordance with the terms of their discharge in a foreign port before an American consular officer, but who, for any reason, can not be considered as serving as seamen on the vessel on which they arrive at an American port.

(II) If such alien seamen arrive at a port in the United States as members of a crew sent forward by the owners to take delivery of a vessel in such port and for the purpose of navigating such vessel to its foreign home port, they may present a group transit certificate issued by a consular officer in accord- ance with Section 3 (3) of the Immigration Act of 1924 under such regula- tions as the Secretary of State and the Secretary of Labor may prescribe.

384

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, SEPTEMBER 16, 1927.

QUESTIONS.

6. The Hon. Mr. D. G. M. BERNARD, pursuant to notice, asked:-

Will the Government cause an enquiry to be held into

(a) the circumstances connected with the shooting. of dogs at Jardine's Corner, Peak, on Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, the 23rd and 24th July, having due regard to the people using the roads and the necessity or otherwise of such drastic action;

(b) the method of enforcing the muzzling regulations and make

recommendations for the future?

The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:-

(a) The Government has caused full enquiries to be made into the occur- rences referred to in the first part of the Honourable Member's question. The shooting near Jardine's Corner was carried out by experienced Police Officers as the result of a complaint from a Peak resident of the danger to children from the presence of so many unmuzzled dogs in that neighbourhood, and the Government much regrets that by an error of judgment the shooting took place in the presence of children and that one child received a slight scratch apparently from a ricochet or a piece of stone. Orders have been issued that every possible care is to be taken to avoid the shooting of dogs in the presence of children, but it is obvious that the presence of spectators cannot always be avoided. The Government much regrets the necessity for undertaking the unpleasant duty of shooting dogs, but this necessity is forced upon it by the whole- sale disregard of the law by dog-owners in this Colony. Among these law-breakers are to be numbered many Peak residents. It must be within the knowledge of all Honourable Members that, even since the occurrence referred to, dog-owners on the Peak and elsewhere still per- mit their dogs to roam about unmuzzled. As to the necessity for drastic action on the Peak as well as elsewhere it does not seem necessary to add anything to the bare statement of the fact that no less than 20 dogs from the Peak have been reported to the Police as having bitten people since the 1st January, 1926, that there were 184 reported cases of persons being bitten by dogs in Hong Kong Island since that date, 11 reported cases of rabies and 11 reported cases of hydrophobia. The risk of the terrible disease of hydrophobia arising from the presence of unmuzzled dogs in a Colony infected with rabies appears to be quite inadequately appreciated.

(b) With regard to the second part of the Honourable Member's question the Muzzling Regulations will be enforced by prosecution of owners, capture of dogs when this is practicable and can be effected without undue risk of danger to the Public Servants employed, and by shooting. As regards the future, the Government is determined that dog-owners shall not, by their disregard of the law, imperil the lives of others and proposes, after this public warning, to give orders for the most rigorous enforcement of the law with a view to the extermination here, as in other law-abiding countries, of the scourge of rabies and the danger of hydrophobia.

QUESTIONS.

5. The Hon. Mr. W. E. L. SHENTON, pursuant to notice, asked :-

Are the Government prepared to deal with motor cars plying for public hire

in the public streets of the Colony by-

(a) Fixing a scale of fares, or

(b) Insisting that each motor car so plying carries with it a meter

registering an approved scale of charges.

Lä

THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, OCTOBER 28, 1927. 455

The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:-

As at present advised the Government does not propose to deal with motor- cars plying for public hire in the public streets of the Colony by--(a) fixing a scale of fares, or (b) insisting on each car so plying being pro- vided with a taximeter. The varying classes, types, makes and sizes of cars plying for public hire preclude the fixing of a general rate for all public cars. Uniformity of design of car is essential for the use of taxi- meters and the variety of public hire cars makes a general taximeter scheme impracticable. It is, however, hoped that the proposals now before the Government for a new Taxicab Service will nature shortly and that the Companies concerned will be in a position to start the ser- vice early in the New Year.

The Hon. Mr. W. E. L. SHENTON-Arising out of the answer to my question, is it a fact that two concerns have recently applied for licences to run taxis in this Colony?

The Colonial Secretary- There are negotiations proceeding with the Government

for private licences in the Colony.

6. The Hon. Mr. W. E. L. SHENTON also asked :-

Have any of the appointments, referred to in the Honourable Colonial Secre- tary's Budget Speech of the 1st September, for the purpose of dealing with Malaria, yet been made?

yes, have the officers commenced their duties?

The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:-

The answer is in the negative. The recommendations must first receive the approval of the Secretary of State for the Colonies and in any case funds, will not be available until January 1st, 19.8. If the recommendations are approved by the Secretary of State the appointments will be made as soon as possible after January 1st next.

MOTIONS.

7. The Colonial Secretary moved the following Resolution: ----

That whereas by the provisions of section 7 of the Tramway Ordinance, 1902, it is provided that subject to the approval of the Governor in Council after timely and adequate notification by public advertisement or otherwise of the intention of the Company referred to in the said Ordinance to apply for such approval, and after such approval has been confirmed by a resolution of the Legislative Council, the company may construct and maintain, subject to the provisions of the said Ordinance, and in accordance with plans previously deposited in the office of the Director of Public Works, all such lines, crossings, passing places, sidings, junctions, turn-tables and other works in addition to or as extensions of those particularly specified in and authorized by the said Ordinance as may be approved of by the Governor in Council, and may work and use the same:

And Whereas, timely and adequate notification having been give by public advertisement of the intention of the company to apply for the approval of the Governor in Council to the construction and maintenance, in accordance with plans to be deposited in the office of the Director of Public Works, of a double tramway line, in place of the then existing single line, on the sections of the tramway from Causeway Bay to Shaukiwan described in section 3 of the said Ordinance as sections Nos. 6 and 7 of the tramway, the Company duly applied for the approval of the Governor in Council to the construction and maintenance of the said double line :

allowance under the provisions of this Minute, may be granted on her ultimate retirement a retiring allowance calculated at the rate of 8s. 4d. per annum for each month of her service in the Colony.

For the purposes of this paragraph 10 such total service need not be conti-

nuous.

Provided that the above mentioned minimum total service of 15 years shall be reduced to 10 years in the case of a European nursing sister or matron who is compelled by ill-health, not caused by her own misconduct, to relinquish her Colonial employment.

Provided further that, except in the case of retirement on account of illness, no such retiring allowance shall be payable until the nursing sister or matron reaches the age of 50; and provided further that the grant of such retiring allowance shall be dependent on the production to the satisfaction of the Secretary of State of certificates of satisfactory service in respect of each period of total qualifying service, and that the total retiring allowance drawn by the nursing sister or matron in respect of service as aforesaid in the Colony and elsewhere shall not exceed the amount of pension which she would have drawn if her whole service had been on the pensionable establishment of the Colony.

The provisions of this paragraph 10 will apply to all European nursing sisters and matrons in the service of the Government of the Colony on or at any time after 1st January, 1926.

　　　2. The Pension Minute (General Order No. 155) is amended by the deletion of clause No. 24 and the substitution of the following therefor :-

"No. 24.

If any person to whom a pension has been or may be granted under this Minute is convicted before any Court in His Majesty's dominions or else- where of any crime or offence for which he is sentenced to death, or penal servitude, or any term of imprisonment with hard labour, or any term of imprisonment of any other kind exceeding twelve months, or if any such person becomes bankrupt, then in every such case, such pension shall if the Governor in Council shall in each case so determine, be for- feited as from the date of such conviction or bankruptcy.

If any question arises as to the competency of any Court, or as to whether any sentence imposed comes within the intendment of the foregoing para- graph then the decision of the Governor in Council thereon shall be final and conclusive..

Provided always that any pension so ceasing shall be restored with retrospec- tive effect in the case of a person who after conviction at any time receives a free pardon. For the purpose of this clause the enduring of the punishment to which any person has been or may be sentenced shall not be deemed to be or to have the effect of a free pardon.

And provided further that where any pension ceases for any reason aforesaid the Secretary of State for the Colonies or, if the pensioner is resident in the Colony then the Governor in Council with the approval of the Secretary of State may cause all or any part of the moneys to which the pensioner would have been entitled by way of pension, during the remainder of such pensioner's life or during any shorter period or periods, either continuous or discontinuous, to be paid to or applied for the benefit of all or any exclusive of the others of the dependents of the pensioner, and the pensioner himself if and when his sentence, if any as aforesaid, shall have expired, in such proportions, if there be more than one recipient or beneficiary, and manner and subject to such conditions, qualifications and restrictions as the Secretary of State or the Governor in Council with such approval as aforesaid, as the case may be, may see fit to direct and impose.

To the Owner of New Kowloon Inland Lot No. 133, Sections L, M and V (part of the portion of the Kai Tack Reclamation referred to in Government Notification No. 413 published in the Gazette of 8th July, 1927 ›.

　　　No. 754.-It is hereby notified under section 4 of the Crown Lands Resumption Ordinance, 1900, Ordinance No. 10 of 1900, that His Excellency the Governor has been pleased to nominate Mr. EDGAR WILLIAM CARPENTER, J.P., to be a member of the Board of Arbitrators to determine the amount of compensation to be paid in respect of the resumption of New Kowloon Inland Lot No. 133, Sections L, M and V.

　　　No. 755.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 15th day of December, 1927, to enquire into the circumstances attending the collision between the British Steamship Anjou and the Motor Vessel Wing Hung, is published for general information.

23rd December, 1927.

FINDING.

E. R. HALLIFAX,

Colonial Secretary.

　　　We find that about 1.30 a.m., on the morning of November 28th, 1927, the S.S. Anjou of which Mr. Adam Hardie Brown, Certificate of Competency as Master No. 025479 of Belfast was Master and the Motor Vessel Wing Hung of which Mr. Edwin Page Smith, Certificate of Competency as Master (Ordinary) No. 1990 of Hong Kong was Master were proceeding through the Sailam Channel on the West River.

　　　The S.S. Anjou in attempting to pass to the Port hand of the SS. Wing Hung passed closer than was necessary taking into consideration the breadth of the navigable channel at her disposal.

　　　That after clearing the Wing Hung the starboard engine of the Anjou broke down canting her to starboard thus causing the collision with the Wing Hung and the strand- ing of the Wing Hung.

We are of opinion that Peter Mackenzie Certificate of Competency as Master No. 021952 of Leith who was Chief Officer of the Anjou and in charge of the bridge at the time of the collision was culpable in that he failed to take charge adequately of the bridge and movements of his ship when chance of collision became apparent and that he failed to take necessary steps to attempt to avert collision in that he omitted to put the Port Engine to "Full speed astern".

We therefore adjudge him to be severely censured.

　　　Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hong Kong, this 15th day of December, 1927.
