Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your note of the 2d instant, stating that the Danish Government will issue a notice to Danish subjects in Salvador that they have been placed under the protection of the United States, as soon as it is informed that the Salvadorean Government assents to such protection.

In reply I have the honor to inform you that no reply to the Department’s instruction of October 25 to the United States minister to Salvador having yet reached the Department, the minister’s attention has been recalled to the matter in an instruction addressed to him this day.

Accept, etc.,

John Hay.
