Eabilen tc the detriment of trcde, but no complaints have
as yet reaehe d me .
The Amir of Dthala is collecting dues largely in excess
cf those authorised by treaty, at Lahej and Tafwa on exports
and imports respectively.
The Haushabi's and Abdali’s dues are collected at lahej.
3. As regards paragraph 2 cf the letter under reference,
from the Government of India, I would point cut that the de
molition cf the Eotaibi and Alawi dars was made a necessary
precedent to the granting of any assistance to either of these
Chiefs. These dars have again been rebuilt without permission
and will prove a constant menace tc the peace of the trade
route. In the circumstances it would appear obvious that it
would be undesirable to grant any stipend or other conces
sion tc the Zotaibi Chief until the agreement is concluded,
as, by so granting, we would lose one of cur most potent
arguments in inducing him to sign the agreement.
4. In conclusion, I would invite a reference to paragraph
11 of my C-HO, dated 29th February 1908. I have not been
favoured with any orders or indication of Government’s wishes j
in the matter, and I regard this as necessary before I am in
a position to submit any final proposals or indeed press upon
the Chiefs concerned the conclusion of the agreement
suggested.
