Sir,
Spursh Consulate Hongkong
Dec. 31. 1892
I have the honour to inform Y.E., thereby showing once more my most ardent wishes to avoid a conflict between two friendly nations such as England and Spain, that the man detained on board the cruiser "Reina Cristina", has been handed over to H.E. the Commandant-General of the Squadron and Naval Station of Mouilla for embezzling the State's moneys.
I avail ...
