I am directed by the Marquess of Lansdowne to

transmit to you, herewith, a copy of a despatch

which His Lordship is sending to His Majesty's

Chargé d'Affaires at St. Petersburg recording a conversation

with the Russian Ambassador on the subject

of a consignment of warlike material carried by a

Japanese vessel which left Hongkong for Kobe or

Yokohama on the 17th ultimo.

I am also to enclose a copy of the Treaty of

Washington, the principles laid down in Article 6 of

which the Russian Consul at Hongkong appears to have

invoked in support of his protest against the exportation

of the articles referred to, but which would

seem to have no application even by analogy, to the

case of a Japanese merchant vessel carrying contraband

of war between a British and a Japanese port.
