Sir,
I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your despatch No.197 of the 15th September, in which you ask for further explanations with regard to the proposal contained in my despatch No.101 of April 24th, that supplies of subsidiary silver coin should in future be executed in India.
1st October 1899.
2. I now enclose a copy of a Report by the Colonial Treasurer, who has consulted on this matter the Chief Manager of the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation. It will be seen from this Report that the Treasurer is of opinion that the system proposed of obtaining supplies of subsidiary coins from India would work better than that now in force.
