SIR, Having read the lengthy article pubs lished in your fasue of 29th May, under the title reference is made to the pending lawsuit here between the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank and Messrs. Jurade & Co. relative to the sentence of one of the law courts of Manila condemning the said. Bank to pay the sum of $933,000, amount of damages claimed by above firra.
In the above article there are many erroneous assertions and misstatements respecting matters which are said to have taken place and which might mislead many persons residing in this colony to judge unfavorably of the conduct of the Spanish Authorities as well as that of the Agent and staff of the said Bank,

It is always of advantage that the commercial community brightly informed of such occur rences as your article mentions, but at the same time one story is good till another is told, shareholders of the Hongkong Hank would do well to ask explanations from the Directors why the suit of Messrs. Jurado & Co. was not attended to from the commencement in a different manner, as to have obviated the deplorable loss which the Bank is now called upon to sustain; and for the foregoing statement of facts I can fully vouch.
In justice to all parties concerned I ask that you will be pleased to publish the foregoing, and thanking you in anticipation,
