-continued until their coinage reaches par, that thereafter the

manufacture and issue will be limited to actual requirements of

the currency and to such quantities as will prevent the coins

from falling again to a discount; and that at the same time the

influx of the subsidiary coins of other Provinces of China into

the Two Kwang will be prevented.

In making these proposals to the Viceroy I

shall be glad if you will assure His Excellency that this

Government has no ulterior object in view and does not seek any

special advantage in the matter I propose only a reciprocal

benefit by a reciprocal pledge. His Excellency in conversation

-on to assert with much emphasis his entire conviction that the

trade of Hongkong and of the Provinces he governs is most close-

-ly allied; that "what is good for the one must be good for the

other", and that their interests are identical. I would ask you

to recall these opinions to his mind, and to assure him that

these proposals are put forward in the interests of that corrion

trade and of the hundreds of thousands of persons

European and

Chinese

- who are engaged in it.
