RECE

- 9 SEP 15!

SAN FRANCISCO.

23rd July, 1915.

200

I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of

Foreign Office despatch No. 18 of the 15th of April

last.

In reply I have to say that I am forwarding

herewith enclosed a report containing all the informa-

tion I have been able to gather regarding the disposal

of the antimony and hides imported into San Francisco

from China through the United States of America by

German firms.

As the United States customs do not now publish

the manifests of either incoming or outgoing ships,

it is somewhat difficult to obtain information regarding

cargoes.

Moreover, such information can only be obtained

a day or two after a vessel has arrived or departed,

and is always somewhat incomplete. I venture to suggest

His Britannic Majesty's

therefore

Secretary of State,

for Foreign Affairs,

Foreign Office.
