LONDON.

cocoons ex "Kleist". Wire. Karberg." and our reply

of to-day's date, "Kleist you must obtain permission of

British Government.

Karberg's Liquidatore."

who was of the opinion that there would be some difficulty

in obtaining permission, asking him to state on what

permission, but that before the goods can be sent to any

country
