No. 18.]

Sir: I have to acknowledge the receipt of your No. 2, of the 23d ultimo, reporting that having at that time received no answer from the French Government in regard to the embassy’s representations on the subject of discrimination against American meats, a further communication was then addressed to Mr. Pichon.

The department notes with approval this action, and feels that you will, in the event of having heard nothing since, keep judiciously pressing for a reply.

I am, etc.,

Robert Bacon.
