The caoes are temporarily stored at the Consulate, 
and as 
one of them containing preserving fluid was leak-

In order to do this it was necessary 
to empty the liquid into empty galoline tins and have 
the tank resoldered in various places. 
1 will now proceed to answer your questions in 
their order: 
1.- I am to-day forwarding under separate cover 
nine letters including one registered letter, which were 
received addressed to you care of this Consulate. 
£.- Expenses incurred so far have heen for despatch- 
ing the goods from the customs, cartage to the Consulate, 
and for having a key made to open the cases, and the re- 
soldering of the tank. IJone of the bills have oeen 
presented as yet, but as soon as they are I will inform 
you immediately. as stated, the cases are now tempo- 
rarily at the Consulate, and I will leave them here un- 
til 1 hear definitely from you whether you will come 
this year or liot, and whether you will want the three 
cases sent to I'uerto Madryn. I have already arranged
