sir,

I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt

of your letter of May 4, No. 2538/10, enquiring whether privi- -leges similar to those conceded under Articles III and IV of the Additional Convention of Commerce between France and China, signed at Peking on the 26th. of June, 1887, were claimed by Russia, Japan and Germany in the North of China under the most favoured nation clause, and if so whether the similar privi- -leges could be claimed for the Colony of Hongkong.

The land trade between Russian and Chinese territory is conducted under Agreements which provide for privileges similar to those mentioned in your letter, just as in the case of Yunnan and Burma, but I am not aware that Germany or Japan have obtained any reduction of duties in respect of trade between Chinese territory and the leased territories in Shantung and Manchuria, or between China and Korea. I under- -stand that Japan is endeavouring to arrange similar privileges regarding the land trade between Korea and Manchuria, but, if they are conceded, I judge that they will be enjoyed in virtua of special agreements, as in the cases of Russia, Tonquin and Burma, and not by reason of the most favoured nation clauses of

the Treaties.

I have etc.,

(Sd.) W. G. MaxMüller.

Sir Francis May, K.C.M.G.,
