BRUSSELS

December 16th, 1905.

Dear Mr. Addis:-

I saw yesterday in Paris M. Simon, who told me that he now had the French Government's approval and that he was to write you to-day or, at the latest Monday next.

On the other hand, I have received your letter dated the 15th instant, which I communicated to Mr. Simon, but without waiting for his answer, I wish to draw your attention to the fact that, in the same way as for the Chinese Central Railways business, the British Group will have to retrocede to the Belgian Group the profit of 55 deferred shares which the British Group will hold in their own name and the French Group 45 Shares which will also be inscribed in their name.

Awaiting the favour of a reply,

(Signed)

I remain &c.,

E. Francqui.

Dear Mr. Addis:-

I saw yesterday in Paris M. Simon, who told

me that he now had the French Government's approval

and that he was to write you to-day or, at the latest

Monday next.

On the other hand, I have received your let-

ter dated the 15th instant, which I communicated to

Mr.

Simon, but without waiting for his answer, I wish

to draw your attention to the fact that, in the same

way as for the Chinese Central Railways business, the

British Group will have to retrocede to the Belgian

Group the profit of 55 deferred shares which the

British Group will hold in their own name and the

French Group 45 Shares which will also be inscribed

in their name.

Awaiting the favour of a reply,

(Signed)

I remain ac.,

E. Francqui.
