Department of State,
Washington, March 20, 1894.

Mr. Gresham after reviewing the statements contained in the note of the Spanish minister of state, submitted in dispatch No. 37, declares that the agreement was unconditional, and that all departments of the Spanish Government were bound by it; to say that one of those departments does not recognize the binding force of the obligation is no answer to the instructions sent to Mr. Taylor.
