_That Chinese merchandise be not brought to Piru._

By the same decree it is ordered that the merchandise brought to Nueva

España from the Filipinas be not taken to Piru and Tierra Firme; and

that the goods which had already been brought be disposed of within

four years.

By another decree of the same date, like commands were given; and that

the merchandise brought to Nueva España be either consumed there or

sent to España.

Nevertheless, this merchandise is taken to Piru under pretense of being

that of Castilla. Hence arise many difficulties, and the commerce

of España with Piru and Tierra Firme is ceasing, and merchandise

from España is not sent to Piru. If this be not checked within a few

years, it is agreed by all that the trade of España in merchandise

with Tierra Firme, Piru, and Nueva España will cease.
