Sir J. Jordan to Sir Edward Grey.-(Received November 23.)

(No. 226.) (Telegraphic.) P.

Peking, November 23, 1906. ŎPÍUM. Please refer to my telegram No. 204 of the 2nd instant.

I understand that a full and accurate report of the tenour of the new Opium Regulations is appearing in the "Times." I do not, therefore, telegraph the text, copy of which has been given to me privately.

Article 10 of the Regulations deals with the imported drug, and the Chinese Government intend, I understand, to approach me officially on this question in a few days' time.
