Dear Delevingne,

I enclose a paraphrase of a telegram just received from Tehran a vout the proposed Ling's Regulations to stop the opium traffic from the Persian Gulf to the Far East.

I am afraid it is not what we expected; but we can hardly refuse to consider the American Adviser's report, so we propose to await the despatch containing it before taking any further action.

Yours sincerely,

VICTOR VELLESLEY.

Sir H. Delevingne, K.C.B.
