The Under Secretary of State

Lay 8th, 1915. 651

In conclusion, and for reasons stated above, I think I must not omit reporting to you that I cabled, on the 6th instant, to the London house of Messrs. Reiss & Company as follows:

"Regret, regardless warning my letter twenty-eighth January, you and/or Hongkong firm surreptitiously approached Texas Company, through Hongkong Bank, and attempted (to) obtain agency-agreement excluding my Company and without its written consent.

Therefore Company hereby holds your two firms responsible for all consequences resulting from this flagrant breach (of) June contract, also for injurious statements to Texas and others, including also for damages if Company loses agency."

I have the honor to be

Sir,

Your obedient servant

Langhe Director

Sanders, Rehdere & Co. Ltd.,

London, E.C.
