June 24th 1916.
I have the honour to transmit to you herewith a
copy of a despatch received from His Majesty's Consul at Nagasaki respecting Mr. and Mrs. Schmulling who are reported to be Germanı
agents.
The report that these persons were merely fined
in Hongkong for carrying despatches addressed to the German Colonial Office and then released appears to require further
- Mr.Jam explanation and I am accordingly sending a copy of this despatch une 17th.
to the Governor of Hongkong as well as to His Majesty's Ambassa- dor at Washington.
I have the honour to be, with thehighest respect, etc.,
(SD.) Conyngham Greene.
The Right Honourable
