[Telegram.]

Department of State,
Washington, July 28, 1910.

Minister at Quito reports that the Government of Ecuador is preparing radical changes in protocol suggested by mediators, especially as regards last paragraph. This Government earnestly hopes that Chilean minister for foreign affairs will continue to exercise his valued influence with the Government of Ecuador to dissuade it from assuming an attitude which would inevitably render more difficult the pacific efforts of Chile, the United States, the Argentine Republic, and Brazil.

Wilson.
