Translation of a telegram from tne tiai-wu Pu
dated March 12th, 1909 .
The British kinister states in a despatch to this
Department that Mr. Mackenzie King, the Deputy Minister
ox Labour oi Canada, represents that, in consequence of
his satisfactory sett/ieraeni of tne Chinese claims arising
out of tne Vancouver liiots of 1906, tae Chinese residents
in Canada are very grateful to hr. Gu-yang Keng and he is
also highly esteemed by the Local Authorities, and that
it will be more satisfactory if Mr. Gu-yang Keng be ap
pointed as Chinese Consul at Vancouver.
Seeing that Cu-yang Keng is already a persona grata
to the Government of Canada, it is thought advisable that
he should exchange his post with Mr. lieiao Yung iisi who
was originally proposed for this Consular Appointment.
Please consult tae Foreign Office on this, and
telegraph your reply as soon as possible.
