(In reply to the department’s telegram of August 1, Mr. Wright reports that the minister for foreign affairs reiterated that Dalny would be opened September 1, and stated that Japan had requested China to establish a custom-house there and at the same time to establish custom-houses covering importations into Manchuria from Vladivostok and Russia. Mr. Wright then stated that he thought his Government would cooperate in urging China to that end.)
