I am directed by Secretary Sir Edward Grey to ac-

knowledge the receipt of your letter 26638/1907 of the

30th. ultimo in which you advance certain considera-

tions which deter the Secretary of State for the Colo-

nies from concurring in the proposal of Sir E. Grey to

communicate to the French Ambassador a Memorandum re-

garding French participation in the Hankow-Canton Rail-

way, the draft of which was enclosed in the letter from

this Department (22861) of the 25th. ultimo.

г

In paragraph 3 of your letter you state that Lord

Elgin cannot see how an arrangement between two finan-

cial groups (which had been officially represented to

the Chinese Goverment as "internal and purely finan-

cial") can be held to impose on His Majesty's Govern-

ment the obligation to accept French participation of

the nature described by Monsieur Cambon.
