I do not know whether since 1887 there has been a spread into Southern China - (according to 14199/87 it was formerly not accepted in China except at Amoy & Foochow). But especially at Amoy they are now in favor of the Currency Reform.

Anyhow the first step to take would seem to be to ask Governor to report fully by despatch on what grounds the Chamber of Commerce and the Bank were opposed to this policy.

Question the two Bank managers next Wednesday/1887.
