have been the need for a Treaty with Beda in connection with

of the Boundary Commission was in progress, it appears to him
that at the present time the position created by the proces
verbal of 20th April 1905 renders the need for any such Treaty
of less importance than before. His Excellency in Council is
disposed to think that the terms of the proces verbal would
estop the Turks from entering into relations with Beda, or
objecting to our doing so, and that a Treaty with Beda would add
very little strength to this position.
3. The Governor in Council, therefore, sees no good ground
for recommending the conclusion of a treaty with the Sultan of
Beda, and he propose^, w r ith the approval of the Government of
India, to instruct the Political Resident A senior ranking political representative (equivalent to a Consul General) from the diplomatic corps of the Government of India or one of its subordinate provincial governments, in charge of a Political Residency. to abstain from entering
into any further negotiations with the Sultan on the subject and
to confine his intercourse with the Sultan to the maintenance
/
of as cordial relations as possible.

Secretary to Government.
