Monsieur l'Ambassadeur:-
In reply to your note of March 26th (April 8th) relating to Mr. A.H. Rennie's claim for compensation for losses sustained in consequence of the detention of the Steamships "Arabia" and "Calchas", I have the honour to inform Your Excellency that the Ministry of Marine, in view of the decision of the Supreme Prize Court on November 20th 1904 and May 7th 1905, to the effect that the said steamers were detained on sufficient grounds and with the observance of the necessary formalities, finds that the claim preferred by the aforementioned cannot be satisfied. However, if Mr. Rennie desires to institute an action for the recovery of the losses he has sustained, he is not deprived of the right to approach a competent Prize Court by a petition on the subject.
His Excellency
The British Ambassador.
