Peking, November 27, 1906.

RAILWAY indemnity. Your telegram No. 203 of yesterday.

I was informed by the Railway Company on the 16th ultimo that, to enable them to verify the figures, they must await advices from England. These, they expected, would reach them in about a month.

I have addressed them a further letter pressing for a reply.
