Thirdly, Dr Licoaga states that persons in Hong Kong, connected with the China Commercial Steamship Company, attempted to suborn Dr Valenzuela, and that, failing this, an attempt was made to poison him. Dr Valenzuela thereupon left Hong Kong and returned to Mexico.

Tenor Quirino will immediately communicate to President Diaz the report of our Consul, and will inform me of the decision which may be arrived at.
The "Hewhide", the S.S. "Tampico" and another vessel, chartered by the same Company and flying the German flag are detained at San Cruz.
I have the honour to be with the highest respect, Sir,
Your Excellency's obedient humble servant,
