Whereas it is provided by section 6 of the Judgments (Facilities for Enforcement) Ordinance 1921 that where the Governor is satisfied that reciprocal provisions have been made by the legislature of any part of His Majesty's dominions outside the United Kingdom for the enforcement within that part of His Majesty's dominions of judgments obtained in the Supreme Court the Governor may by order in council declare that the said Ordinance shall extend to judgments obtained in a superior court in that part of His Majesty's dominions in the like manner as it extends to judgments obtained in a superior court in the United Kingdom and that on any such order being made the said Ordinance shall apply accordingly:

Any whereas it is also provided by the said section that for the purposes thereof the expression "part of His Majesty's dominions outside the United Kingdom shall be deemed to include any territory which is under His Majesty's protection:

Any whereas I am satisfied that such reciprocal provisions have been made by the legislature of the Federated Malay States:

Now therefore I, Sir REGINALD EDWARD STUBBS, Knight Commander of the Most Distinguished Order of Saint Michael and Saint George, Governor and Commander-in Chief of the Colony of Hongkong and its Dependencies, and Vice Admiral of the same do hereby by this order in council declare that the said Ordinance shall extend to judgments obtained in superior courts in the Federated Malay States.

No. 107.

　Regulation made by the Chief Justice under section 10 of the Legal Practitioners Ordinance, 1871, Ordinance No. 1 of 1871, on the 12th day of January, 1925.

SOLICITORS FINAL EXAMINATION.

　From and after the 1st day of July, 1925, the subjects for the solicitors final examination shall be the following:-

1. The Principles of the Law of Real and Personal Property, and the Practice

of Conveyancing.

2. The Principles of Law and Procedure in matters usually determined or

administered in the Chancery Division of the High Court of Justice.

3. The Principles of Law and Procedure in matters usually determined or administered in the King's Bench Division of the High Court of Justice, and the Law and Practice of Bankruptcy.

4. The Principles of Law and Procedure in matters usually determined or administered in the Probate and Divorce and Admiralty Division of the High Court of Justice, other than Divorce, Matrimonial and Prize Law; Criminal Law and Practice; Proceedings before Justices of the Peace; and Private International Law.

　Until further notice the questions on Private International Law will be set upon Westlake's Private International Law, 6th Edition.

SUPREME COURT HOUSE,

Hongkong, the 12th day of January, 1925.

Approved by the Legislative Council on the 26th day of February, 1925.

COUNCIL CHAMBER,

26th February, 1925.

A. G. M. FLETCHER, Clerk of Councils.

NOTE.-The above regulation follows the regulations in force in England except that the subject of admiralty law is still retained here though it has been abandoned in the solicitors final examina- tion in England, and the subject of divorce law is abandoned here though it is retained there. Admiralty work is much more general here than in Enlgand, and divorce work much less common. Hence the variation from the English regulations.

　　No. 128. The following Orders of His Majesty in Council, which appeared in the London Gazette of the 9th January, 1925, are published for general information.

6th March, 1925.

CLAUD SEVERN,

Colonial Secretary.

AT THE COURT AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE,

THE 9TH DAY OF OCTOBER, 1924.

PRESENT:

THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY IN COUNCIL.

THEREAS at Trianon, on the 4th day of June, 1920, a Treaty of Peace with Hun- gary (hereinafter referred to as "the Treaty") was signed on behalf of His

Majesty:

And whereas it was provided in the Treaty that the property of nationals of the former Kingdom of Hungary within the territory or under the control of an Allied or Associated State might be constituted a pledge for enemy liabilities upon the conditions laid down in the Treaty:

And whereas by the Treaty of Peace (Hungary) Act, 1921 (11-12 Geo. 5, c. 11), it was provided that His Majesty might make such appointments, establish such offices, make such Orders in Council, and do such things as appeared to Him to be necessary for carrying out the Treaty, and for giving effect to any of the provisions thereof:

And whereas by Treaty, grant, usage, sufferance or other lawful means His Majesty has power and jurisdiction in China:

And whereas by King's Regulations made under Article 155 of the China Order in Council 1904 (S. R. & Ő. 1904, No. 1656), and Article 13 of the China (Amendment) Order in Council, 1907 (S. R. & O. 1907, No. 741), it was provided that the Custodian of Enemy Property in China should hold property vested in him under the Trading with the Enemy Acts and under any regulations in China in regard thereto :

And whereas there is now in China certain property of nationals of the former Kingdom of Hungary under the control of His Majesty, and it is expedient to make provision for charging such property with the payment of the liabilities for which it may be constituted a pledge by the Treaty in the manner hereinafter provided :

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by virtue and in exercise of the powers in this behalf by the Foreign Jurisdiction Act, 1890 (53 & 54 Vict. c. 37), or otherwise in Him vested, is pleased, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:-

1. All property, rights and interests in China belonging to nationals of the former Kingdom of Hungary under the control of the Custodian of Enemy Property in China or other British authority under the Trading with the Enemy Act or the Trading with the Enemy Regulations at the date when the Treaty. came into force (not being property, rights and. interests acquired under any general licence issued by or on behalf of His Majesty) and the net proceeds of their sale, liquidation or other dealings therewith, together with all property, rights and interests (and the proceeds thereof) which but for their having been vested in the Custodian of Enemy Property in China would have belonged to such nationals at that date, are hereby charged for all purposes for which they may be lawfully charged under the provisions of the Treaty.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MARCH 6, 1925.

...

established in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty of Peace (Hungary) Order, 1921 (S. R. & O. 1921, No. 1285), who shall apply them for the purposes of the charge imposed by Section I of this Order. 3. This Order may be cited as the China (Treaty of Peace) (Hungary) Order in Council, 1924, and shall be read as one with the China Order in Council, 1904, and with any Order amending the same.

4. (1) This Order shall take effect as soon as it is first exhibited in the public

AT THE COURT AT BUCKINGHAM PALACE,

THE 9TH DAY OF OCTOBER, 1924.

PRESENT :

THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY IN COUNCIL.

WHEREAS at St. Germain en Laye, on the 10th day of September, 1919, a Treaty

of Peace with Austria (hereinafter referred to as "the Treaty") was signed on behalf of His Majesty:

And whereas it was provided in the Treaty that the property of nationals of the former Austrian Empire within the territory or under the control of an Allied or As- sociated State might be constituted a pledge for enemy liabilities upon the conditions laid down in the Treaty :

And whereas by the Treaties of Peace (Austria and Bulgaria) Act, 1920 (10 & 11 Geo. 5, c. 6), it was provided that His Majesty might make such appointments, establish such offices, make such Orders in Council, and do such things as appeared to Him to be necessary for carrying out the Treaty, and for giving effect to any of the provisions thereof:

And whereas by Treaty, grant, usage, sufferance or other lawful means His Majesty has power and jurisdiction in China:

And whereas by King's Regulations made under Article 155 of the China Order in Council, 1904 (S. R. & O., 1904, No. 1656), and Article 13 of the China (Amendment) Order in Council, 1907 (S. R. & O., 1907, No. 741), it was provided that the Custodian of Enemy Property in China should hold property vested in him under the Trading with the Enemy Acts and under any regulations in China in regard thereto :

And whereas there is now in China certain property of nationals of the former Austrian Empire under the control of His Majesty, and it is expedient to make provision for charging such property with the payment of the liabilities for which it may be constituted a pledge by the Treaty in the manner hereinafter provided:

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, MARCH 6, 1925.

1. All property, rights and interests in China belonging to nationals of the former Austrian Empire under the control of the Custodian of Enemy Property in China or other British authority under the Trading with the Enemy Acts or the Trading with the Enemy Regulations at the date when the Treaty came into force (not being property, rights and interests acquired under any general licence issued by or on behalf of His Majesty) and the net proceeds of their sale, liquidation or other dealings there- with, together with all property, rights and interests (and the proceeds thereof) which but for their having been vested in the Custodian of Enemy Property in China would have belonged to such nationals at that date, are hereby charged for all purposes for which they may be lawfully charged under the provisions of the Treaty.

2. The property, rights and interests referred to in Section I, or the net proceeds of their sale, liquidation or other dealings therewith shall be remitted by the said Custodian to the Administrator of Austrian Property established in accordance with the provisions of the Treaty of Peace (Austria) Order, 1920 (S. R. & O., 1920, No. 1613), who shall apply them for the purpose of the charge imposed by Section I of this Order. 3. This Order may be cited as the China (Treaty of Peace) (Austria) Order in Council, 1924, and shall be read as one with the China Order in Coucil, 1904, and with any Order amending the same.

4. (1) This Order shall take effect as soon as it is first exhibited in the public

office of the Supreme Court for China.

And the Right Honourable James Ramsay MacDonald, First Lord of the Treasury, one of His Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, is to give the necessary directions herein.

Turkey (hereinafter referred to as "The Treaty") was signed on behalf of His

　AND WHEREAS at Lausanne on the same date the conventions, protocols and declara- tion mentioned in the First Schedule to this Order were also signed on behalf of His Majesty, and at Paris on the 23rd day of November, 1923, there was also so signed a convention relating to the assessment and reparation of damage suffered in Turkey by the nationals of the contracting Powers and the protocol annexed thereto :

　AND WHEREAS by the Treaty of Peace (Turkey) Act, 1924, it was provided that His Majesty might make such appointments, establish such offices, make such Orders in Council, and do such things as appeared to him to be necessary for carrying out the Treaty and the said conventions, protocols and declaration, and for giving effect to any of the provisions thereof, and that any Order in Council made under that Act might provide for the imposition, by summary process or otherwise, of penalties in respect of breach of the provisions thereof, and might provide for granting exemption from stamp duty in cases where such exemption was required under the Treaty, and for conferring on courts within His Majesty's Dominions jurisdiction in cases where under the conven- tion respecting Conditions of Residence and Business and Jurisdiction such courts are alone to have jurisdiction :

AND WHEREAS the Treaty contains the Articles set out in the first column of Part I of the Second Schedule to this Order (a translation whereof is, for the purpose of con- venience, set forth in the second column thereof) and the last mentioned convention contains the Article set out in the first column of Part II of that Schedule (a translation whereof is, for the purpose of convenience, set forth in the second column thereof), and it is expedient that for the purposes of giving effect thereto the provisions hereinafter contained shall have effect :

AND WHEREAS by section five of the Trading with the Enemy Amendment Act, 1914, it was provided that the Custodian of enemy property thereby constituted should, subject to the provisions therein mentioned, hold any money paid to and any property vested in him under that Act until the termination of the late war, and should thereafter deal with the same in such manner as His Majesty might by Order in Council direct:

AND WHEREAS by treaty, grant, usage, suffrance, or other lawful means His Majesty has power and jurisdiction in British Protectorates and is pleased by virtue of and in exercise of the powers vested in Him by the Foreign Jurisdiction Act, 1890, or otherwise, to extend the provisions of this Order to such Protectorates :

NOW, THEREFORE, His Majesty, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, is pleased to order, and it is hereby ordered as follows:

(ii) The competent authority for the purposes of Article 70 of the Treaty, in so far as it applies to money or other property in the United Kingdom, shall be the Public Trustee.

(iii) All decisions of the Mixed Arbitral Tribunal constituted under Section V of Part III of the Treaty, if within the jurisdiction of that tribunal, shall be final and conclusive and binding on all courts, and any award of the Mixed Arbitral Tribunal may by leave of the High Court or a judge thereof, or in Scotland of the Court of Session, be enforced in the same manner as a judgment or Order to the same effect.

(iv) For the purpose of enforcing the attendance of witnesses before the Mixed Arbitral Tribunal, wherever sitting, whether within or without His Majesty's Dominions, and compelling the production before the tribunal of documents, a Secretary of State shall have power to issue orders which shall have the like effect as if the proceedings before the tribunal were an action in a court and the order were a formal process issued by that court in the due exercise of its jurisdiction, and shall be enforceable by that court accordingly, and dis- obedience to any such order shall be punishable as contempt of court.

(v) The Comptroller-General of Patents, Designs and Trade Marks shall have power as from the coming into force of the Treaty in cases where patents and designs are revived under the provisions of Article 87 of the Treaty, to impose such conditions as he may deem reasonably necessary for the protec- tion of the rights of third parties who have exploited or made use of patents or designs during the time whilst they had lapsed.

2. The agreement contained in Article 16 of the Convention respecting Conditions of Residence and Business and Jurisdiction, set out in Part II of the Second Schedule to, this Order shall have full force and effect as law, and for the purpose of carrying out the said agreement the following provisions shall have effect:..

(i) In all cases where, in pursuance of the agreement contained in the said Article 16, courts established in British territory are to have jurisdiction, His Majesty's Supreme Court of Judicature in England shall be the court having such jurisdiction, except where the case is one where, apart from this pro- vision, some other court within His Majesty's Dominions would have juris-

diction:

Provided that where, as respects any case jurisdiction as to which is so conferred on His Majesty's Supreme Court of Judicature in England, on application being made to the Supreme Court of Cyprus, or to a superior court in any other part of His Majesty's Dominions which may from time to time be authorised for the purpose by an Order in Council under the Treaty of Peace (Turkey) Act, 1924, it is made to appear to that court that the case could be more conveniently tried in that court than in His Majesty's Supreme Court of Judicature in England, the Supreme Court of Cyprus, or such other superior court as aforesaid, shall have jurisdiction in the matter, subject to the following qualifications; that is to say :--

(a) where proceedings have been instituted in His Majesty's Supreme Court of Judicature in England, no such application shall be made without the leave of that court ;

(b) Where the matter is one with respect to which the Supreme Court of Cyprus, or the superior court of any other part of Ilis Majesty's Dominions, has not jurisdiction in relation to persons domiciled in Cyprus or that other part as the case may be, nothing in this article shall authorise applications to be made to, or confer jurisdiction on, that supreme court or superior court.

(ii) The Jaw to be administered in His Majesty's Supreme Court of Judicature in England, or the Supreme Court of Cyprus or other such superior court as aforesaid, in any case where jurisdiction is conferred on the court by this

　　5. This Order shall be deemed to have come into operation as from the date when the Treaty of Peace came into force, that is to say the sixth day of August, nineteen hundred and twenty-four.

Il appartiendra au Gouvernement de la Puis- sance effectuant la restitution, de pourvoir à l'indemnisation des tiers qui auraient acquis directement ou indirectement dudit Gouvernement et qui se trouveraient lésés par cette restitution. Les différends pou- vant s'élever au sujet de cette indemnisa- tion seront de la compétence des tribunaux de droit commun.

Dans tous les autres cas, il appartiendra aux tiers lésés d'agir contre qui de droit pour être indemnisés.

　A cet effet, tous actes de disposition ou autres mesures exceptionnelles de guerre auxquelles les Hautes Parties contractantes auraient procédé à l'égard des biens, droits et intérêts ennemis, seront immédiatement levés et arrêtés s'il s'agit d'une liquidation non encore terminée. Les propriétaires réclamants recevront satisfaction par la restitution immédiate de leurs biens, droits et intérêts, dès que ceux-ci auront été identifiés.

　Au cas où, à la date de la signature du présent Traité, les biens, droits et intérêts, dont la restitution est prévue par l'Article 65, se trouveraient avoir été liquidés par les autorités de l'une des Hautes Parties contractantes, celle-ci se trouvera libérée de l'obligation de restituer lesdits biens, droits et intérêts par le payement à leur propriétaire du produit de la liquidation. Au cas où, sur la demande du propriétaire, le Tribunal Arbitral Mixte prévu à la Sec- tion V estimerait que la liquidation n'a pas été effectuée dans des conditions assurant la réalisation d'un juste prix, il pourra, à défaut d'accord entre les parties, augmenter le produit de la liquidation de telle somme qu'il jugera équitable.

rights and interests may have been charged without the consent of the said owners. It will be the duty of the Government of the Power effecting restitution to provide for the compensation of third parties who may have acquired the property directly or in- directly from the said Government and who may be injured by this restitution. Dis- putes which may arise in connection with such compensation shall be dealt with by the ordinary courts.

In all other cases it will be open to any third parties who may be injured to take action against whoever is responsible, in order to obtain compensation.

In order to give effect to these provisions all acts of transfer or other exceptional war measures, which the High Contracting Par- ties may have carried out in respect of enemy property, rights and interest, shall be immediately cancelled and stayed when liquidation has not yet been completed. Owners who make claims shall be satisfied by the immediate restitution of their pro- perty, rights and interests as soon as these shall have been identified.

When at the date of the signature of the present Treaty the property, rights and in- terests the restitution of which is provided for in Article 65 have been liquidated by the authorities of one of the High Contract- ing Parties, that Party shall be discharged from the obligation to restore the said pro- perty, rights and interests by payment of the proceeds of the liquidation to the owner. If, on application being made by the owner, the Mixed Arbitral Tribunal provided for by Section V finds that the liquidation was not effected in such conditions as to ensure the realisation of a fair price, it will have the power, in default of agreement between the parties, to order the addition to the proceeds of the liquidation of such amount as it shall consider equitable. The said property, rights and interests shall be re- stored if the payment is not made within two months from the agreement with the owner or from the decision of the Mixed Arbitral Tribunal mentioned above.

Article 70.

Claims based on Articles 65, 66 and 69 must be lodged with the competent authori- ties within six months, and, in default of agreement,with the Mixed Arbitral Tribunal within twelve months, from the coming in- to force of the present Treaty.

The present stipulation does not affect the special attributions of consuls in matters of status in accordance with international law or special agreements which may be concluded, nor the right of Turkish courts to request and receive evidence respecting matters acknowledged above as being with- in the competence of the national tribunals or authorities of the parties concerned.

By way of exception to the first paragraph of this Article, the Turkish courts will also have jurisdiction in the matters referred to therein, if all the parties to the case submit in writing to the jurisdiction of the said courts. In such case the Turkish courts will apply the national law of the parties.

HARBOUR MASTER'S DEPARTMENT.

Protection of Life and Property in the Harbour during Typhoon Weather.

1. When there are immediate prospects of the weather conditions becoming so bad as to place the Native Craft in the Harbour in danger of being unable to make shelter on their own account, a Red Ensign will be hoisted at the Harbour Office indicating that two Naval Tugs will be available to assist to tow such craft to shelter.

2. These Naval Tugs will fly the Red Ensign at the masthead and will proceed down to the Central and Southern Fairways to the limit of the shipping, and all mercantile or private craft which desire to avail themselves of a tow to shelter should be ready with their ropes to be taken in tow as the Tugs return.

3. All craft will be towed towards Yaumati Refuge.

4. If the wind is blowing from the Eastward, assistance to the shipping at the Western end of the Harbour will be rendered first.

　　5. Native Craft are not to depend on these Tugs entirely but should endeavour to make shelter on their own account, as early as possible.

6. The Naval Tugs can only be made available when all naval movements are com- pleted and will be used only in emergency during the hours of daylight. On no account will they be used for this work after dark.

　　7. No responsibility for damage done during towage will be taken by the Govern- ment or by the Naval Authorities.

S. Towing charges will be made in accordance with the following scale:-

No. 353.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 15th day of June, 1925, to enquire into the circumstances attending the collision between the Steamship Fatshan and Steamship Hang Cheong, is published for general informa-

tion.

FINDING.

We find that on June 4th, 1925, at about 5.30 a.m. the S.S. Hang Cheong came into collision with the S.S. Fatshan in the Western end of the Maintland Channel in the Canton River owing to suction caused by the Fatshan passing the Hang Cheong.

We find that Mr. ROBERT RITCHIE (Certificate of Competency as Master No. 031,684 of Dundee) Master of the S.S. Fatshan was to blame in that he asked permission from the Hang Cheong to pass in the Maintland Channel instead of waiting until both ships had arrived out in the main river. We also find that Mr. ALEXANDER JENKYNS (Certificate of Competency as Master No. 03,158 of London) is equally to blame in that he consented to the same and we adjudge that both these officers be cautioned.

Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hongkong, this lôth day of June, 1925.

Regulations.

　　Articles of gold and silver, precious stones, jewellery and other articles of a like nature, which are prohibited from transmission in insured letters, may be sent in the letter mails as "insured boxes

　　The undermentioned classes of articles are prohibited from transmission in insured boxes for any destination :-Articles the admission or circulation of which in the country of destination is prohibited, letters or notes which may serve as a substitute for corres- pondence, current coin, bank notes, or securities payable to bearer, bonds and articles included in the category of commercial papers. It is, however, permissible to insert in an Insured Box an open invoice confined to the particulars which constitute an invoice, and also a simple copy of the addressee's name and address, and the name and address of the sender.

A box containing any prohibited article is stopped and returned to the sender.

　　An insured box must not exceed 2 lb. in weight and must not measure more than 12 inches in length, 4 inches in breadth, and 4 inches in height. The box employed for packing must be strongly made of metal or wood, and when a wooden box is used the wood must be at least of an inch thick.

　　An insured box must be tied crosswise with a single strong string (not two or more pieces joined), the two ends of the string being held together under a seal of fine wax bearing a private mark. The box must also be sealed on the four sides with seals iden- tical with that used for the ends of the string. The box must not be wrapped in paper, but the surfaces of the top and bottom must be covered with white paper for the inscrip- tion of the addressee's name and address and the insured value of the contents and for the impression of the official stamps.

　　An insured box is subject to the Customs regulations and laws in force in the country of destination, and must be accompanied by a Customs declaration prepared by the sender. Customs declarations of the non-adhesive form used for parcels should be used for boxes posted in this Colony; but the heading of the first column of the form should be altered to "Insured Boxes-Boites avec valeur déclarée" when the form is used for an insured box. The Customs declarations must be prepared with great care, and must specify precisely the style of packing and include a description of the box, its gross weight and the total value of the contents. The net weight and value of each of the different kinds of article contained in the box must also be shown separately.

　　No box can be accepted for transmission under this arrangement unless both postage and insurance fees are fully prepaid. Two forms of Customs Declarations are required.

No. 609.-The following Finding of the Marine Court of Enquiry held on the 16th day of October, 1925, to enquire into the reported loss of the British Steamship- Yue Ying Wa is published for general information.

23rd October, 1925.

CLAUD SEVERN,

Colonial Secretary

FINDING.

　　　We find that the S.S. Yue Ying Wah (unclassed) left Hoihow on 8th August, 1925, with a general cargo of about 300 tons (including live stock) bound for Hongkong and that she has not arrived at her port of destination.

　　　We presume that she foundered at sea between Hoihow and Hongkong in a typhoon with all hands (as shown in a copy of her Articles dated 1st August, 1925, at Hongkong) on 8th August, 1925.

　　　We further find that the Yue Ying Wah was not fitted with wireless and that had she been so fitted it is probable that her fate would have been known of with more certainty.

　　　Given under our hands at Victoria, in the Colony of Hongkong, this 16th day of October, 1925.

No. 686.

ROYAL OBSERVATORY, HONGKong.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.

　1. The Marconi International Maritime Comniunication Company have issued the attached circular to their operators, and shipmasters are earnestly requested to cooperate in the forecasting and storm warning work of the Royal Observatory, Hongkong, by arranging for meteorological observations to be made in accordance with the programme given in the circular, and transmitted by the wireless operator without delay.

　2. The accuracy and utility of the Observatory forecasts will increase in proportion. to the number of ships cooperating, the accuracy of the observations, and the promptness with which they are despatched. In the interest of shipping, therefore, every master possessing a radio-telegraphic installation should send observations at the hours stated, namely, at 0300, 0600, 0900 and 2200 G.M.T., and endeavour to make the service as efficient as possible.

　3. It is requested that mercurial barometers should be used whenever possible, and that owners should cooperate by supplying their ships with at least one good mercurial barometer, of the Board of Trade pattern. Very few aneroid barometers are satisfactory. Generally speaking, the index error varies considerably from time to time, and is seldom constant throughout the scale. Moreover their readings are usually affected by changes of temperature though they are supposed to be compensated in this respect. In every case the readings should be followed by the word "Mercury" if a mercurial barometer is read, or "Aneroid" if an aneroid is read.

4. It is very important that a few readings (at least four) of the barometer used for the wireless messages should be taken in Hongkong and forwarded to the Observatory, for comparison with the Obervatory Standard. It is also very important that the readings in the radio messages should be exactly as read off, without any correction whatever, except in the case of ships which have not sent comparison observations to the Observatory. Such ships should correct the readings of mercurial barometers for index error, and reduce them to 32° Fahrenheit, sea level, and gravity at 45° latitude; using the best index error available and adding the word "corrected". If an aneroid barometer is used and no comparison observations have been sent to the Observatory, the readings should be corrected for index error and reduced to sea level.

21st November, 1925.

T. F. CLAXTON, Director.

THE MARCONI INTERNATIONAL MARINE COMMUNICATION

COMPANY, LIMITED.

Circular No. 403.

Operators employed' on board ships trading to the Far East will note that arrange- ments have been made to transmit from the Cape d'Aguilar (Hongkong) Radiotelegraph Station to ships at sea a summary of meteorological conditions and weather forecasts. In return, ships will forward meteorological observations through the Cape d'Aguilar station to the Royal Observatory, Hongkong.

Details of the arrangements are given hereunder :-

1. A summary of meteorological conditions at 2200 G. M. T., and the local weather forecast based thereon, will be broadcast by Cape d'Aguilar at 0500 G. M. T. and repeated at 0900 G. M. T., on a 600 metre wave.

A second summary and forecast, based on observations at 0600 G. M. T., will be broadcast at 1200 G. M. T. and repeated at 1600 G. M. T., or immediately after the mid- night storm warning, if any.

564

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 4, 1925.

2. Storm warnings are broadcast at about 0400 G. M. T. and repeated every two

hours until 1600 G. M. T. or until the next warning is issued.

3. When within range of Cape d'Aguilar the Captain will arrange for observations to be made at 0300, 0600, 0900 and 2200 G. M. T. and a message, prepared by the observer, will be handed to the operator for transmission containing the following information:-

(a.) Ship's name, position, and the time of observation (G. M. T.).

(b.) Barometer reading (with no correction whatever, except as mentioned

in paragraph 4 of the Notice to Mariners overleaf).

(c.) Thermometer reading.

(d.) Wind direction and force.

(e.) State of weather (in plain language) fine meaning 0 to 3 of cloud;

fair 4 to 6 of cloud; cloudy 7 or 8; overcast 9 or 10.

In no circumstances will the operator write these messages.

4. Reports for transmission from the ship will be addressed to Royal Observa- tory, Hongkong," and immediately on the acceptance of these messages the- operator will enter (a) Prefix "S", (b) Date, (c) Time handed in (G. M. T.). 5. All messages handed in under the above conditions shall be dealt with as

follows:-

They shall be communicated to the coast station at the first opportunity,

and shall receive priority as Government messages.

Wherever possible, each message shall be repeated.

6. All messages shall be treated free of coast tax, ship tax, and land charges. 7. A special watch on the 600 metre wave will be kept by Cape d'Aguilar for ships calling with these messages from 0315 to 0345, 0615 to 0645, 0915 to 0945, and 2215 to 2245, G.M.T. or until all meteorological messages are cleared.

Ships calling with these messages are advised to call with prefix "S".

8. Reports handed in for transmission written on any form other than on the message form numbered SI, shall be affixed to a message form SI in such a manner as not to cover the space reserved for service instructions and other data.

9. Beginning with 1st December, 1924, the Hongkong Observatory will also send wireless Time Signals, via Stonecutters in accordance with the new inter- national programme between 0156 and 0200 G.M.T. Between 1255 and 1300 G.M.T., dots will be sent each second, the 28th, 29th, 54th, 55th, 56th, 57th, 58th and 59th seconds being omitted for the purpose of identifying the signals.

The Time Signals are preceded by the following warning signals from Stonecutters,

between 0154 and 0155 G.M.T. and between 1253 and 1254 G.M.T.

CQ DE BXY HK TIME WAIT

Both Warning and Time-Signals are sent out on a wave length of 2,000 metres from a 30 kw tonic train (I.C.W.). Radiotelegraphic land and ship stations within range of Stonecutters are required to keep silent between 0154 and 0200 G.M.T. and betwee 1253 and 1300 G.M.T. in accordance with Article 45, paragraph 3 of the Service Regulations appended to the International Radio-telegraph Convention of 1912. Operators are also required to keep themselves provided with the most accurate time available in order to know when to shut down.

LORD CHAMBERLAIN.

LORD SOUTHBOROUGH.

WHEREAS, 36

HEREAS by Section 36 of the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, it is enacted that His Majesty may by Order in Council direct that the said Act shall apply as if, subject to the conditions, exceptions and qualifications (if any) contained in the Order, any place out of His Majesty's dominions in which His Majesty has jurisdiction and which is named in the Order, were a British possession, and to provide for carrying into effect such application:

　　And whereas New Guinea and Nauru are places out of His Majesty's dominions in which His Majesty has jurisdiction:

And whereas it is expedient to extend to those territories the provisions of the Fugi- tive Offenders Act, 1881:

　　Now, therefore, His Majesty, by virtue and in the exercise of the powers in this behalf by the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, or otherwise in His Majesty vested, is pleased, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:-

1. This Order may be cited as the New Guinea and Nauru (Fugitive Offenders)

Order in Council, 1925.

2. On and after the 1st day of November, 1925, the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, shall apply to New Guinea and Nauru as if those territories were British possessions, subject to the provisions following.

3. In the application of the Act to the said territories :---

(a) Every reference in the Act to the Governor of a British possession shall be read as a reference to the Administrator or other chief executive officer of each of the said territories.

(b) Every reference in the Act to a Magistrate shall be read as a reference to a Judge or other judicial officer possessing criminal jurisdiction within each of the said territories, and every such Judge or other officer may exercise accordingly the jurisdiction conferred by the Act upon a Magis-

LORD CHAMBERLAIN.

LORD SOUTHBOROUGH.

THEREAS by an Order of Her Majesty Queen Victoria in Council, bearing date the 23rd day of August, 1883, it was ordered that Part II of the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, should apply to the group of British Possessions therein mentioned, that is to say, New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, New Zealand, Tasmania, Western Australia and Fiji:

　　　And whereas on the 1st day of January, 1901, the Commonwealth of Australia was established under the provisions of an Act of Parliament passed in the sixty-third and sixty-fourth years of Her Majesty Queen Victoria's Reign, and shortly entitled "The Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act," and each of the British Possessions herein before mentioned other than New Zealand and Fiji is now a State forming part of the Commonwealth established as aforesaid:

And whereas Pupua and Norfolk Island are British Possessions which have been placed under the authority of the said Commonwealth.

And whereas by Royal Proclamation, bearing date the 9th day of September, 1907, His late Majesty King Edward VII ordained declared and commanded that, on and after the 26th day of September, 1907, the Colony of New Zealand and the territory belonging thereto should be called and known by the title of the Dominion of New Zealand:

And whereas by an Order of His Majesty in Council bearing date the 10th day of November, 1915, and known as the Gilbert and Ellice Islands Order in Council, 1915, the Gilbert and Ellice Islands were annexed to His Majesty's Dominions and constituted a Colony :

And whereas by certain Order in Council mentioned in the second column of the Schedule to this order, and respectively set opposite to the names of the territories specified in the first column thereof, the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, has been applied to the said territories repectively as if each of them were a British Possession :

　　And whereas by reason of the contiguity of the Dominions, Colonies and Territories hereinafter mentioned and the frequent intercommunication between them, it seems expedient to His Majesty and conducive to the better administration of Justice therein that part II of the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881; should apply to the said Dominions, Colonies and Territories as hereinafter provided:

　　And whereas it is desirable to revoke the first hereinbefore recited Order in Council, bearing date the 23rd day of August, 1883, and to substitute other provisions in lieu thereof:

Now, therefore, His Majesty, by virtue of the powers in this behalf by the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, or otherwise in His Majesty vested, is pleased, by and with the adice of His Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows: --

(1) As from the 1st day of November, 1925, the hereinbefore recited Order in

Council of the 23rd day of August, 1883, shall be revoked, without prejudice. to anything lawfully done hereunder, or to any proceedings commenced before the said 1st day of November, 1925.

(3) On and after the 1st day of November, 1925, Part II of the Fugitive Offenders Act, 1881, shall apply to the group of British Possessions and Territories heroinunder mentioned; that is to say:---

　　The extradition shall not take place if, subsequently to the commission of the crime or offence or the institution of the penal prosecution or the conviction thereon, exemption from prosecution or punishment has been acquired by lapse of time, according to the laws of the State applying or applied to.

ARTICLE 6.

　　A fugitive criminal shall not be surrendered if the crime or offence in respect of which his surrender is demanded is one of a political character, or if he proves that the requisition for his surrender has, in fact, been made with a view to try or punish him for a crime or offence of a political character.

ARTICLE 7.

　　A person surrendered can in no case be kept in custody or be brought to trial in the State to which the surrender has been made for any other crime or offence, or on account of any other matters, than those for which the extradition shall have taken place, until he has been restored, or has had an opportunity of returning, to the State by which he has been surrendered.

　　This stipulation does not apply to crimes or offences committed after the extradi- tion.

ARTICLE 8.

　　The requisition for extradition shall be made through the diplomatic agents of the High Contracting Parties respectively.

　　The requisition for the extradition of an accused person must be accompanied by a warrant of arrest issued by the competent authority of the State requiring the extradi- tion, and by such evidence as, according to the laws of the place where the accused is found, would justify his arrest if the crime or offence had been committed there.

　　If the requisition relates to a person already convicted, it must be accompanied by the sentence of condemnation passed against the convicted person by the competent court of the State that makes the requisition for extradition.

　　A sentence passed in contumaciam is not to be deemed a conviction, but a person so sentenced may be dealt with as an accused person.

ARTICLE 9.

　　If the requisition for extradition be in accordance with the foregoing stipulations, competent authorities of the State applied to shall proceed to the arrest of the fugitive.

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 18, 1925. 585

ARTICLE 10.

　　A criminal fugitive may be apprehended under a warrant issued by any police magistrate, justice of the peace, or other competent authority in either State, on such information or complaint and such evidence, or after such proceedings, as would, in the opinion of the authority issuing the warrant, justify the issue of a warrant if the crime or offence had been committed or the person convicted in that part of the dominions of the two Contracting Parties in which the magistrate, justice of the peace, or other com- petent authority, exercises jurisdiction. He shall, in accordance with this article, be discharged if within the term of thirty days a.requisition for extradition shall not have been made by the diplomatic agent of the State claiming his extradition in accordance with the stipulations of this treaty. The same rule shall apply to the cases of persons accused or convicted of any of the crimes or offences specified in this treaty, and com- mitted on the high seas on board any vessel of either State which may come into a port of the other.

! ; ་

ARTICLE 11.

　　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 con- victed 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 warrnt for his surrender.

ARTICLE 12.

　　In the examinations which they have to make in accordance with the foregoing stipu- lations, 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 warrant 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.

　　If the individual claimed by one of the High Contracting Parties in pursuance of the present treaty should be also claimed by one or several other Powers on account of other crimes or offences committed within their respective jurisdictions, his extradition shall be granted to the State whose claim is earliest in date, unless such claim is waived.

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.

586

THE HONGKONG GOVERNMENT GAZETTE, DECEMBER 18, 1925.

ARTICLE 15.

All articles seized which were in 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 per- mitted 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 the territories, the detention, and the conveyance to its frontier, of the per- sons 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 law 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 Papau 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 Riga, and provided also that it shall be competent for either of the Contracting Par-. ties 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 the 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 outhority, of such self-governing Dominion, Colony, or Possession by the chief Consular afficer of the Latvian Republic in such self-governing Dominion, Colony, or Possession.

Such requisition may be disposed of, subject always, as nearly as may be, and so far as the law of such self-governing Dominion, Colony, or Possession will allow, to the provisions of this treaty, by the said Governor-General, Governor or chief authority, who, however, shall be at liberty either to grant the surrender or to 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.
