Downing Street, December 5, 1907. WITH reference to previous correspondence as to the grant of £750 a year from the Tropical Diseases Research Fund for the establishment of a Professorship in Protozoology in the University of London, I am directed by the Earl of Elgin to inform you that the Advisory Committee for that Fund would be glad to learn whether Professor Minchin is in a position to furnish any report on the work done by him, for inclusion in their annual report for the year 1907, which will shortly be laid before Parliament.

2. In this connexion I am to call your attention to the letter from this Depart- ment of the 7th of July, 1905,* in the last paragraph of which the Secretary of State asked that "in some form or other a report upon the results of each year's work should be communicated to him in order that the Colonies and India, which have contributed to the Research Fund, may maintain an interest in the objects to the promotion of which their contributions are being allotted."

SIR,

I AM directed by the Earl of Elgin to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 9th of November,† forwarding a report on the work of the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine.

2. The report was laid before the Advisory Committee for the Tropical Diseases Research Fund, on the 29th of November, and was read with interest. The Committee would, however, be glad to receive any further information that the authorities of the School may be disposed to give as to the facilities for clinical instruction available to pupils at the School.

3. Lord Elgin, on the recommendation of the Committee, has decided that the ordinary grant to the School of £500 a year shall be continued for the year 1908, and the Crown Agents for the Colonies have been instructed to pay this sum to you on application any time after the 1st of January next.

Liverpool School, 25th July.

4. This payment, of course, is independent of the further grant of £500 a year referred to in the correspondence‡ noted in the margin. In connection with that further grant the Committee have expressed the wish to be informed of the nature of the work which the School proposes to carry on, and Lord Elgin would be glad if such a report could be furnished.

Colonial Office, 2nd September.

5. I am to add that Lord Elgin is not yet in a position to say whether any portion of the grant for the period ending the 31st of March, 1908, will be available, but he has authorised the Crown Agents for the Colonies to pay to you the sum of
