and at any point where it crops out operations are commenced without regard to private rights or officials precripts. The anomalous political status and the unsettled condition of the province generally facilitates not a little such practices and renders disinterested control or check, were there a disposition to exercise such, difficult. Moreover local officials and those in higher spheres elsewhere, having not failed to take note of the possibilities which the situation holds out, are eager to consider any arrangement likely to prove mutually advantageous, even if it be not possible to reconcile it with existing enactments or pledges of Government. By threats of discrimination and appeals to Treaty it has hitherto been possible to thwart in some degree efforts in this direction, but a specious pretext has not been put forward by the Provincial Treadury, and communicated in a despatch by the Civil Governor on April 4th. It takes the form of an
arbitrary decree, based on the plausible grounds that fraud
has to be guarded against and irregularities have to be
suppressed, in terms of which all foreign holders of transit
passes, proceeding into the interior to buy mineral ore, must
only purchase from such native sellers as are provided with triplicate transit certificates (van chao) issued in respect
thereof by the Provincial Treasury. Purchases from others
than those holding certificates are liable to seizure and
confiscation at the first barrier. No time was lost in taking
action on these lines, as no sooner had the Civil Governor's
despatch reached this office than it was reported to me that
certain cargoes of wolfram, purchased in the East River dis-
triot by British and American holders of Customs Transit
Passes, had, without previous warning, been thus detained.
The foramen were, however, told that on receipt of letter
