OPIUM I'M SIAM.

Consul General John Van A. MacMurray. Of
Bangkok writes concerning the imports Of opium
into Siam and the manner in which the business
in the drug IS conducted in the kingdom:
Opium is and for long time has been q
gov rrnTnent monopoly, administered through an
opium farm. BY the treaties WITH foreign powers
opium may be imported free Of duty, but can only
be sold to the opium farmer his agents. In
the event Of arrangement being effected with
them Tor the sale OF the opium II shall be re
exported. and no impOst duty shall be levied
thereon. Any infringement OF this regulation shall
subject the opium to seizure and con1scatiOn.
Under these circumstances practically no opium
IS imported into Siam, except the supplies for the
farm, which the government provides by purchas-
ing Indian opium. The farm system is being re
placed by direct governmental administration.
The only derivative of opium about which any
question has hitherto arisen is morphine. The
Siamese government claims under the treaties the
right TO exercise the control over this de-
rivative opium itself. In view. however
Of the legitimate uses 10 which morpiia may be
put in the practice Of medicine. the government
has permitted the Importation of reasonable
amounts by reputable chemists ulder certain safe
guards: but its importation by other persons is
not permitted"
