total of 11056. Mr. Carroll is said to be British born, and I have no reason, in conversation with him, to disbelieve this. The company are in a good way of business and are in good credit; so I find from the private status book of Messrs. Seyds' which we have here.

After hearing the whole of Mr. Carroll's statement to-day, and questioning him about it, it appears to me that the main facts which underlie the position are the following:

Sanders, Rehders & Co., are a British Company. They own the agency in South China for the Texas Oil Company.

Their local agent, Mr. Cheetham a Lancashire man has executed a contract with them, undertaking to have no further connection whatever with his former employers - Reuter Brockelmann Shanghai.

Reiss & Co., the old British-China merchants acting as advisers in Hongkong - rather gather to satisfy the Authorities there but Cheetham is the practical man who does the work, and apparently has done it well.

Under the circumstances I feel that Sanders, Rehders & Co., Ltd., should be upheld, and I feel this more strongly from the fact that there is a danger of the agency falling into the hands of Mitsui.

This latter event I would regard as a severe blow 45372/15.
