(No. 367.) Sir,
No. 1.
**Sir Edward Grey to Sir J. Jordan**
Foreign Office, October 23, 1906.
MY LORD,
I HAVE received Mr. Carnegie's despatch No. 341 of the 12th August last, inclosing the draft of King's Regulations, prepared by the Judge of His Majesty's Supreme Court for China and Corea, to enable His Majesty's Consular officers in certain cases to exercise control over British Municipal Councils in the Chinese dominions.
I approve the draft Regulations, subject to the following alterations:-
In Regulation 1 (1), the fifteenth word should be "liable" instead of "calculated." In Regulation 1 (3), second paragraph, the eighth word which, apparently by a clerical error, is written "Consul," should be changed to "Municipal Council."
I am, &c.
(Signed) EDWARD GREY.
