On receipt of your Highness' note under acknowledgment I telegraphed its purport to His Majesty's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and I am now in receipt of instructions to inform the Chinese Government that His Majesty's Govern- ment claim the right to construct the Bhamo-Tengyueh Railway under the engagement of March 1902. I am at the same time instructed to state clearly to the Chinese Government that His Majesty's Government do not consider that a Concession for that short line is fully equivalent to the Concession granted in April 1898 to the French Government, or to a French Company designated by the French Government, to build a railway from Lao-kay to Yünnan-fu.
I avail, &c. (Signed)
