Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States, With the Annual Message of the President, Transmitted to Congress December 2, 1895, Part I

Mr. Olney to Mr. Eustis.

[Telegram.]

Department of State,
Washington, December 23, 1895.

Your No. 421 received. Is not sentence stating D. and P. to have been identified as Draper and Purdy a mistake? American citizens supposed to have been referred to were Dupuy and Poupard. Bray, Mrs. Waller, Consul Wetter, all declare their ignorance of any such persons as Draper and Purdy. See Consul Wetter’s letter, copy of which has been sent you, of April 20.

Olney
