Mr. Gibbs to Mr. Frelinghuysen.

Legation of the United States,
Lima, Peru, May 7, 1884. (Received May 29.)

No. 95.]

Sir: The French minister, on 30th ultimo, passed a note to Minister of Foreign Affairs that he had received a telegram authorizing him to recognize the Iglesias Government immediately. It is also reported that the Argentine Republic has recognized this Government. I suppose that all the governments of any importance in Europe and the American continent have now recognized this Government.

Nothing of importance in political matters to communicate at present.

I am, &c.,

RICHARD GIBBS.
