Gentlemen,

H. E. M. Oonsulate ženeral,

174

Canton, 26th April, 1910.

with reference to your telegram of the 23rd instant, I

beg to inform you that I have not learned officially of any new tax

which it is proposed to impose on raw opium. Bo long, however, as

such a tax is not levied differentially, I do not see my way to

address any representations to the Frovincial Authorities,

MESSRS. D. SASSOON &.00.,

HONG KONG.

I am,

Gentlemen,

(3gd.)

Your obedient servant,

J. W. Jamieson,

Consul-General.
