Mexico, January 13th., 1913.
R 31 MAR 13,
I have the honour to report that on receipt of Your Excellency's Despatch No. 4284/1912, I at once addressed a lote to the Mexican Government asking to be supplied with the information you desired in order to make some arrangements whereby the traffic of opium may be kept within legitimate bounds.
A few days later I also received a telegram from the Foreign Office on this same subject, which, I, likewise, communicated to the Mexican Government, asking for a reply to both
these Notes.
I failed to receive any reply until the 8th. instant, when they forwarded me a table showing the total amount of opium imported into Mexico during the past five years.
I lost no time in transmitting the contents of this answer from the Mexican Government to the Foreign Office, as you will see from the enclosed copy of a Despatch I addressed to Sir Edward Gray in reply to his enquiries, and you will observe that I have also reported that I have renewed my request for replies to the points raised by His Majesty's Government and by you, and ask- -ing for an early reply. As soon as this reaches me, I shall at
once communicate its contents to you.
I have etc.,
(Sd.) W. B. Hohler
(for H. M. Minister.)
His Excellency
Sir F. H. May, K.C.M.G.,
Hongkong.
