Sir.
I have the honour to inform you that on August
21st I received a telegram from His Majesty's Ambas81-
dor at Tokio stating that he had learnt on very good authority that the Pacific Mail Steamer "Manchuria" which was due Hongkong about August 28th was carrying
the sum of Twenty-five thousand Pounds in gold which
had been shipped by the Anglo Parisian and London Bank.
Further that the gold which was for the Deutsche-Asiat-
ische Bank, was consigned to the Guaranty Trust Company whose attorney in Shanghai was Gustaotibaerwald.
[
His Majesty's Ambasandor added that the "Manchuria"
was proceeding from Nagasaki to Manila, Hongkong and then
to Shanghai, and that in ordinary cireu stances the gold
would have been transhipped into a Japanese bottom at
Nagasaki but that on account of the security of the
American steamer instruction had been given to make the
roundabout journey.
Upon making local enquiries into the matter I te graphed on August 24th to the Governor of Hongkong, wh had also received His Majesty's Ambassador's telegram
of August 21st, that the Attorney at Shanghai turned
to be the Deputy Manager of the Deutsch-Asiatische Be
at Shanghai.
Sir Henry Way telegraphed me in reply on Augus 25th that he could not interfere with pods in trap through Hongkong in a neutral ship.
