of the negotiations for the Trade Regulations, the attitude
of the Chinese and Tibetan representatives proved
obstructive, the question of warning the Chinese and
Tibetan representatives that our evacuation would depend
on matters connected with trade-marts being satisfactorily
settled, should be considered.
It was shown by the history of the negotiations that,
in regard to important points at issue, the Chinese had
been, and still were, most obstructive. Sir John Jordan's
requests regarding points which he was pressing had not
yet been acceded to by the Wai-wu Pu; while, in a letter
to Sir Louis Dane, which had just been received, Mr. Chang

the marts would be effectively opened, and that they
would remain so, was afforded us by the new Trade

securing China's real compliance with the terms of the
Lhasa Convention would be lost if the transfer was per-

possibility, in the event of non-fulfilment of conditions, of
temporary postponement of evacuation was apparently con-
templated by the annexure to the Anglo-Russian arrange-

Regulations was in progress, and that their settlement was
to be followed by evacuation.
Mr. Morley, in reviewing these contentions of the
Indian Government, said that it must be remembered
that when the Government of India, in July, 1907, raised
the question of the failure of the Tibetans to fulfil the
conditions on which evacuation was to take place, it was
decided by His Majesty's Government that it was "not
necessary at present formally to remind the Chinese and
Tibetan Governments of such breaches of the Lhasa
Convention as have occurred." Nor had the incidents
since reported by the Government of India been con-
