No. 43.
Mr. Guzman to Mr. Gresham.

Sir: Pursuant to the conversation I had with your excellency on the 7th instant, I have sent to the President of Nicaragua a cable gram in which I state that the Government of the United States would be [Page 84] pleased to see that the-utmost harmony may prevail between Nicaragua and the canal company, and that it would be much gratified if all proceedings against the said company were revoked.

I reiterate, etc.,

H. Guzman.
