Mr. Gresham to Mr. Willis.

[Telegram sent through dispatch agent at San Francisco.]
Department of State,
Washington, November 24, 1893.

The brevity and uncertainty of your telegrams are embarrassing. You will insist upon amnesty and recognition of obligations of the Provisional Government as essential conditions of restoration. All interests will be promoted by prompt action.

W. Q. Gresham.
