[Telegram.—Paraphrase.]

(Mr. Combs reports that Mr. Ordonez, minister for foreign affairs of Honduras, requests him to inform the Government of the United States that peace has been thoroughly reestablished and that ex-President Arias is a prisoner.

Mr. Combs thinks it advisable to recognize General Bonilla as President of Honduras and to present his letter of credence.

Requests instructions.)
