Mr. Taylor to
Mr. Moret.
Legation of the United States,
Madrid, January 15, 1894.
Excellency: Permit me to thank you for your
note of the 10th instant, in which you inform me that the Cuban
repertory has arrived; that it is being compared (se esta
confrontando); and that at the earliest possible moment it will be
sent to Cuba so that it may be immediately carried out. The contents
of your note I cabled to Washington, and I at once received in reply
a cablegram in which the Secretary of State says that he can not
understand with what document the repertory is being compared, as it
has already been compared by the Spanish legation in Washington with
the original in that capital. I am instructed to earnestly request
its publication in Cuba at the earliest possible moment, as errors
are continually arising there from the use of the unauthorized
version. Will you be so good as to inform me, at your earliest
convenience, how soon the publication of the authorized version will
be made in Cuba so that I may inform my Government by cable?
I seize, etc,
