Papers Relating to the Foreign Relations of the United States, With the Annual Message of the President Transmitted to Congress December 3, 1912

File No. 815.51/197.

Mr. Charles A. Conant to the Secretary of State.

New York, February 11, 1911.

Dear Sir: I have examined the copies of the proposed contracts between the bankers and the fiscal agent of the Government of Honduras which are enclosed herewith,¹ with a view to the changes made since my letter to the Department of February 6th last.

I do not find in the changes made any reason to modify the opinions expressed in that letter. The changes appear to be of a nature to add to the protection afforded to the Government of Honduras under the contract, and to give greater clearness to certain minor provisions.

Yours very respectfully,

Charles A. Conant.
