Your telegram No. 116 [of May 30. Canton - Kowloon and Loochow - Ningpo Railways]

Bland telegraphs to British and Chinese Corporation that Chinese Govt. intend to appoint negotiator Canton - Kowloon Railway, but not for Loochow - Ningpo line.

No further delay dangerous.

You consider acquiescence

We have given Corporation substance confidentially of your telegram and said that Prince Ching's view does not appear unreasonable and that unless considered advisable to press for immediate appointment of negotiator for Loochow line, we think it better to deal with Kowloon first, and leave Chinese Govt. time to persuade Chekiang Board.
