the Peport Switzerland, owania and lontenegro have
announced their intention of signing shortly, and it is
understood that Austria-liungary will also declare her readi-
ness to aiŋn before long.
In these circumstances it would appear that the time
has arrived when it is incumbent upon his majesty's Govern-
ment to give sarnest consideration to the question whether
they should not proased at once to ratify the Convention.
Grey's opinion the principal if not the only ob-
in Mir
158
jection to the ratification by Great ritsin of the Conven-
tion at the present time is that attention would t sreby be
called to the fact that the signature of the Union of South
Africa has not yet been obtained.
i am to request that wir á. ʊrey may be favoured with
the observations of the Løard of Trade on the subject st
their earliest convenience.
Copies of this letter and of the delegates' report have
been sent to the india Office, Colonial Office and
Cffice.
