The British Subject Robert Taylor, resident in
Hongkong, has applied to the Portuguese Government for
permission to establish a connexion with Macao by
means of wireless telegraphy. The Portuguese Govern-
ment would be disposed, in principle, to take the re-
quest of this British subject into consideration.
In accordance, however, with the reasons which deter-
mine that the opinion of His Britannic Majesty's Gov-
ernment should first be taken in these matters, the
Portuguese Government have the honour to infora His
Excellency Sir Francis Villiers of the application in
question and would be glad to know whether the British
Government think the request made by Mr. R. Taylor
worthy of consideration.
