Sir Edward Grey to Sir J. Jordan,

Foreign Office, November 1, 1906,

I AM requested by Messrs. Erlanger and Co. to instruct you to return a satisfactory reply to any inquiries as to their status which may be made by the Chinese authorities. A loan to the Province of Chihli is, I understand, the business contemplated.

For what purpose is the loan required; have you or Consul-General at Tien-tsin heard anything of this?

If applied to, you may say that the firm in question is a good one.
