The Menorialit would hambly recall the fact that, in the last month of the 9th year of His Majesty's reign, when he held the conjunction post of Governor of Shamsi, iu with L Hungchang, Minister Super- intendent of Trade for the Northern Ports, he requested His Majesty to sanction the removal of the prohibition on the export of Shansi iron from Tientsin by sea, which re- quest was approved by Decree, and ac- cordingly Shanat iron has now for several years been exported frour Tientsin by sea to the three Manchurian provinces. The case of wangtung and Kwangai is similar to that of Shane. Moreover at the present moment steps are being taken to develop the minoral resources of Kwangtung, and it is in the interest of private trade that the Commissioners request that the pro cident may be followed by removing the prohibition against exportation.
