Mr. Uhl to SeƱor Romero.

Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of your note of the 22d instant, in which you renew your request of July 17, 1893, for the extradition of Inez Ruiz and Jesus Guerra, implicated in the attack on San Ignacio in December, 1892. The charges against whom, for violation of our neutrality laws, have, you state, recently been dismissed by the United States Federal court.

In reply I have the honor to say that, so far as this Department is aware, no proceedings were taken by your Government for the extradition of these men beyond the request above referred to. As soon as the usual requirements of law shall have been complied with and the cases brought before the Department, your request will be given due consideration.

Accept, etc.,

Edwin F. Uhl,
Acting Secretary.
