was untien

Since 14533 dollar has risen

A

to over 2/2 [today it is down slight hat

exacth 2/2]

so that 10 cents is at

present rather over 21⁄2 not under it. I cannot see any provision in the Pestal Convention for carve

verting

25 centimes to other currency.

Is Hongking therefore free to declare

Equante- what number cents it chooses as lent to 25 centimes? face par. 3 of suc. in 14533) I think it is a pity that when any change is made Hongking the Straits should not move together. Zu will see from 18077/93 that N. Barnes & Laluan have adopted 8.00. Strait the Straits rate (8 cents) for sake of uniformity.

Without altering the Hongking rate pompting

subsequent Paper.
