No.425.

My telegram No.424.

Addressed to Hongkong.

Chinese government tell me that they are fully

familiar with Chen's movements. On being pressed

they intimated that Chen really had their support.

I do not understand why His Majesty's Government

are concerned in loans which Chinese merchents may

care to make to Chen,

I have not been able to obtain Chinese govern-

ment's assurance that they will guarantee such loans

and I think it unlikely that they will do so.

Repeated to Foreign Office.
