Sir Julian Pauncefote to Mr. Day.

Sir: With reference to your telegram of the 22d instant sanctioning the expenditure of money for the relief of United States citizens at Habana, I have the honor to inform you that Her Majesty’s acting consul-general at Habana has drawn upon you for the sum of $500.

Mr. Jerome adds that the $2,000 which he is authorized to draw will be sufficient for some time to come.

I have, etc.

Julian Pauncefote.
