In the Matter of Direction Der Di sconto-Gesellschaft.
Deutsche Asiatische Bank,
I now beg to enolose, as requested, statement of Balances
of the Deutsche Asi stische Bank in the books of thie Bank in London
made up to 16th instant with Interest and Commission running, as
shewn at foot thereof.
No.
I have already returned to you the Board of Trade File
7463 which you left with me for my comment, but I should like to
observe that with regard to the second paragraph of the letter from
the India Office to the Colonial office, the arrangement proposed
for payment is of course still appropriate to the position as it is
to-day, but obviously the amount payable increased from day to day
owing to the interest charged thereon. The letter from the
Management of this Bank dated the 12th February last was written
under the direction and with the approval of the official
Supervisor, and I would draw your attention to the indebtedness
therein disclosed there is due to the London branch a further sum,
at present not exactly ascertainable owing to the taels and merks
which probably were deposited with the Deutsche Asiatische Bank by
firme indebted to the London Branch of this Bank under guarantee of
the Deutsche Asiatische Bank which accounts may or may not have been
remitted to Germany before the entry of China into the War.
Finally you will observe that the Management of the
London Branch with the approval of Sir William Plender asked for a
Telegraphic Transfer on London, in order that no time might be lost
in obtaining funds.
I am &c.,
(sd.) Wm. Cash, AGENT.
for H.Brougham, Controller, appointed under the Trading
with the Enemy Amendment' Act 1916 (50.) 7.CASH.
