Sir F. Villiers to Sir Edward Grey.--(Received June 15.)

(No. 23. Commercial.) (Extract.)

Lisbon, June 6, 1908.

WITH reference to Sir Maurice de Bunsen's despatch No. 41, Commercial, of the 3rd ultimo and Lord Lansdowne's telegram No. 9 of the 16th May, 1905, I have the honour to report that the Treaty between Portugal and China, signed at Shanghae on the 11th November, 1904, was yesterday laid before the Cortes for ratification. I would call special attention to Article 6, which deals with the treatment of port wine.
