Colonel Se etary's Office,
Hongkong, 22nd September, 1914.
Gentlemen,
With reference to your letter of the 21st of July
and to previous correspondence on the subject of the export of limestone from the Kwangtung Province for the use of your factory,
and particularly to that part of the correspondence concerning
your claim against the Chinese Government for the embargo placed upon the export of the stone by the Provincial Government
established by the Revolution of 1911, I am directed to inform you
that the Governor is in receipt of a letter from H.B.M.Consul-
General at Canton covering copy of a despatch from H.B.M.Minister
at Peking in which Sir John Jordan emphasizes the difficulty in
holding the Central Government responsible for the action of
Revolutionary Authorities ever whom they were not in a position
to exercise control, and the hopelessness of pressing a heavy pecu- niary claim on a Government which even if it admitted its liability has no funds with which to meet the claim and in view of the state of war now prevailing in Europe has little hope of
obtaining financial relief from that quarter in the near future. Sir John Jordan goes on to point out that in the present state of
the finances of Kwangtung there is even less prospect of obtaining pecuniary satisfaction and he is, therefore, led to suggest that your Company may be willing in view of the unrestricted resumption of the export of stone to waive their claim for pecuniary compensa. tion for losses consequent on the interdiction of export and to accept instead some grant of further facilities tem-porary exempt- ion from taration or other advantages if the Provincial Authorit- ies can be induced to arrive at a settlement on such lines.
The Governor has in the past used his best endeavours to press the claim of your Company, but he is constrained to remark lessrs. Shewan Tomes & Co.
