Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States, With the Annual Message of the President Transmitted to Congress December 2, 1902

Mr. Hay to Mr. Choate.

[Telegram.]

Department of State,
Washington, July 9, 1902.

British embassy advises me, in answer to an inquiry, that the governor of Bermuda has not yet received instructions as to how the Boer prisoners are to be dealt with. You will inquire when and how any American citizens held as prisoners will be released, and suggest that instructions be sent by cable to Bermuda.

Hay.
