British Government objects to G. Mason, alleging incompetency. [Appointment on the boundary commission.] Appointment another surveyor imperative. Boundary Commission ready to proceed. Expense delay chargeable to the Liberian Government. Liberian President requests me to ascertain whether Captain Young may serve as Liberian Commissioner. Believe British Government would appreciate such service.
