Peking, July 4, 1906.
I HAVE the honour to report that the Russian Minister here informed me the day that he had received the instructions of his Government to effect, by means of an exchange of notes between the British and Russian Legations, an agreement for the reciprocal protection of British and Russian trade-marks in China. I replied that, though I felt sure that His Majesty's Government were in favour of such an arrangement, and had, in fact, as I had noticed in past correspondence, already approached the Russian Government on the subject, I could not enter into the desired agreement without your authorization, which I would at once request.
M. Pokotilow said that the matter was not very urgent, and that he would address me officially on the subject in order to comply with the instructions he had received. A copy of his communication, which contains the draft of the note which he proposes to exchange with one from His Majesty's Legation to the same effect, is herewith inclosed.
I have replied to M. Pokotilow that I would send a copy of his note to you with a request for instructions, and that directly I received them I would communicate again with him.
I have, &c.
