Mr. Porter to Mr. Hay.

No. 1090.]

Sir: Your printed circulara relative to the Jews of Roumania was duly received and, availing myself of the authorization given me by your unnumbered instruction of August 12, I left a copy of it with Mr. Delcassé.

The next time I saw him he spoke of the circular, said he had read it with interest, and asked several questions about the condition of the emigrants of the class referred to coming to the United States.

He did not give any expression of his views, the subject not having yet been officially considered.

I have, etc.

Horace Porter.
