Sir,

Foreign Office, August 3, 1911. I AM directed by Secretary Sir E. Grey to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 20th ultimo, and to state that Mr. Secretary Harcourt is right in assuming that it was not thought desirable, pending the meeting of the proposed opium conference, to make any representations to the Portuguese Government with regard to the opium

trade in Macao.
