Very respectfully, your obedlent servant
THOMAS a. HENpRlcKs, Commissioner.

SIN Il have the honor TO acknowledge the
receipt of your letter of tha 10th inst, address
ed 60 the Secretary of State, aud by that officer
submitted for the consideration OF this depart
ment; and in reply 20 the question propounded,
20 state that free negro, not being citizen of
the United States, cannot receive register for u
vessel owned By him, nor can he command a
vessel sailing under United States marine papers.
By reference to the registry act approved Dec
81. 1892, and the coastng act approved +, b. IL

20 United States marine papcls, she must be
wholly owned by citizen or citizens ot the
United States, and that the master OF such vts
sci must be a citizen of the United States
