[Telegram.]

Department of State,
Washington, February 14, 1894.

Mr. Gresham approves of Mr. Thompson’s action and of the correct interpretation of the Department’s instructions, of November 1, as presented in his dispatch No. 122, from which it appears that he understood what it was necessary to do for the protection of American vessels at Rio de Janeiro.
