sir,

I immediately, on receipt of your telegram of Noven-

-ber 9th. last, addressed enquiries, in accordance with your

instructions, to the Mexican Government as to the amount of opium

imported into this country, their estimated annual requirements

thereof, and whether they were prepared to take steps to prevent

its importation in accordance with the Convention of 1912.

A few days previously, in compliance with a Despatch

I had received from the Governor of Honglong. I had addressed to

them another lote suggesting an arrangement by which it might be

possible to check the import of opium, and making enquiries on

other points.

I have repeatedly brought the matter to the atten-

-tion of the Mexican Government but have only succeeded, at last,

in eliciting from them the figures for the import of opium for

the last five years which are enclosed, herewith. I have renewed

my request for replies to the points raised by His Majesty's

Government and the Government of Hongkong, begging for an early

reply.

I have etc.,

(Sd.) Francis Stronge.
