Sir,

REGE 22 SEP 15

Arnhold, Karberg & Co.,

363

14, Fenchurch Street, London, E.C.

8th September, 1915.

Cargo ex 8/8 "Kleist" at Padang.

We beg to refer to our letter of the 6th ulto. and your acknowledgment of the 7th August and regret that we have not received any further communication from you since in this matter.

We have now received a letter from the Liquidators of Arnhold, Karberg & Co., Hongkong, with copies of correspondence with the Attorney General of Hongkong, duplicates of which we attach herewith and from which you will see the Hongkong Authorities have given permission to deal with the goods in so far as their permission may be required.

With reference to the suggestion to tranship the goods to London, we beg to point out that this would not suit us at all, as there is no use for these goods in this country. We would require the goods to go to the original destination, i.e. Genoa, but we shall not part with the goods, unless our buyers agree to use the goods exclusively.

The Under-Secretary of State,

Foreign Office, S.W.
