I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your cypher telegram of the 24th. instant on the subject of the

recent resignation of certain members of the Licensing Board, and

to confirm my reply of the 25th. instant. Paraphrases of both

10083ages are enclosed.

I reported this incident in my Despatch No.

409 of the 22nd. instant.

The information upon which the questions in the

House of Comons were based seems to have been inaccurate and mis-

-leading.
