Hagenbeck writes hoping that the three hybrids arrive safely in Hamburg. He also announces that he is happy with the amount offered to him for the young Przewalski's horse skin and skeleton, which Ewart is procuring for a friend. He will shortly send Ewart the skins of a Siberian Ibex for his museum. He states that he has not yet seen Salensky's monograph about the Przewalski's horse but will enquire about it.

Salensky states that a decision will be made regarding the purchase of the Przewalski's horse on the return of the President.

Salensky says that he has forwarded Ewart's letter asking for the photographs he requested to the new Director of the Zoological Museum. He also asks Ewart to return him the cliches to his work on the Przewalski's horse, if Ewart's translation has not yet appeared.
