I have the honour to acknowled the receipt of

*

your letter of the 3rd of November No.38125/1905, and we Jossu, think that the views expressed in our letters of the 16th

and 25th of October must have been misunderstood as we

Missy 18 4 2 7 6 5

have not at any time advocated the abandurment of the system'

of raising Loans by means of Inscribed Stock.

2. In our first letter we pointed out that the conditions under which the money lent to the Viceroy of Wuchang was to be repaid were quite exceptional, and that therefore it would be desirable to raise the necessary

Loan in the shape of Debentures. At the same time however we expressed the opinion that as regards the remaining portion of the Lean, i.e. that required for the Kowloon- Canton Railway we were of opinion that it should be raised in the form of Inscribed Stock.

3. In our second letter we suggested, as further legislation was required, that the existing legislation; should be repealed and that fresh legislation should be passed enabling Loans to be raised in the shape of either Stock or Debenture as might prove most advantageous at the time of issue, and I now beg to state at length the reasons which led us to make this recommendation.

Under Secretary of State,
