My Lord,

Government House,
Hongkong, 2nd. July, 1908.
I have the honour to confirm my
telegram of the 13th. ultimo which was as follows:-
"Ten Divan Licences applied for renewal before
expiration 28th. February, not yet issued, be-
-cause, in the absence of applicants (in) China,
(it was) impossible to execute personal bonds.
Divans in the meantime allowed to keep open.
Propose now issue, thus avoiding claims for
compensation pending settlement of whole
question, concerning which Despatch follows by
mail".
