Trade dispute over port duties and royal concessions
June 29 reports ongoing conferences between Count Golowkin and local magistrates over a double customs duty and princely guarantees. A memorial from the Empress’s envoy urges restraint and reconciliation, while the Senate counters that port rights and anchorage duties have long been established since 1585, with no change demanded. The outcome remains unsettled.
