REG 29 JAN 16 January

and

-Gov

With reference to your letter 59341/1915 relative to the export of hides, antimony from Hong Kong to S. Francisco, I am directed by Secretary Sir E. Grey to suggest, for the consideration of Mr. Secretary Bonar Law, the possibility of furnishing His Majesty's Con- sul General at San Francisco with more detailed re- ports of the shipments of hides from Hong Kong than

have hitherto been sent.

I am at the same time to transmit herewith a copy of a despatch which is being sent to His Majesty's Ambassador at Washington in regard to shipments of antimony to the United States of America.

I am,

sir,

Your most obedient,

humble Servant,

Maurice Nansen
