No. 53.]

Sir: On the 5th of January last I had the honor to send you the following code cable.¹

Since then, on every occasion that I have seen him, Dr. Calderon, the Colombian minister for foreign affairs, has inquired anxiously of me as to what reply I have received. Not having received your instructions up to this time, I have so told him, but I should like very much, if it meets with your approval, to be cabled upon receipt of this, if no directions have as yet been sent, what reply to make.

I have, etc.,

Elliott Northcott.
