I have not yet received from Señor Mariscal any further communication on the subject, but shall shortly make a fresh representation if necessary.

I had a visit on the 20th instant from Mr Camden, the General Agent of the China Commercial Steamship Company who has been at Salina Cruz since the arrival of the vessels.

He tells me that a third steamer from Hong Kong has now arrived at Salina Cruz, and that from this vessel also a large number of immigrants have been rejected.

I told him that I quite realize how seriously the question affects the Steamship Company, and that I had taken vigorous action on their behalf.

Mr Camden gave me to understand that it meant life or death to the Company, which intended to fight the matter with all their strength.

He repeated to me a rumour that the attitude of the Mexican Government towards the Company was attributable to the influence of the Hawaiian Steamship Company, which ply between Hawaii and Salina Cruz in conjunction with Messrs Pearson's Tehuantepec Railway, carrying sugar for New York.
