RECO (REGE19 MAY 13

His Britannic Majesty's Consul-General has the honour to acknowledge the receipt of the Commissioner's letter of the 30th.

ultimo regarding limestone.

In reply he would beg to state that the issue by the late Imperial Government of likin receipts and Customs permits to export constitutes irrefutable evidence that all limestone supplied to the Green Island Company was shipped with their knowledge and consent, and that any action taken was not illegal nor irregular.

Mr. Jamieson would be interested to learn on what

grounds Governor-General Chou closed down the Lao Ti Wan quarry

in 1907, and, if possible, to receive a copy of His Excellency's

condemmatory rescript. ( ).

In spite of assertion to the contrary, he must still

maintain that the citation in Ch'en Tu Tu's proclamation of the

Canton Cement Works' petition implies an endorsement of its pro- -posals. If not, why was not the Treaty breaking nature thereof

reprobated or pointed out to the petitioners ?

Mr. Jamieson has now in this matter received specific

instructions from His Majesty's Minister, who has throughout been kept posted as to the correspondence which has taken place, but before carrying them out, he would be glad to know in what con-

-sists the "commercial procedure" put forward as an alternative

solution of the existing impasse in Mr. Lo's letter of February

22, 1913.

H. B. M. Consulate-General,

Cantan, April 2, 1913.
