Mexico City, March 13, 1913.
105. General Huerta told me today that the Chamizal case was agreed upon according to the American proposal; that the Tlahualilo case was arranged in such a manner that its acceptance by the Company would be beyond doubt; that a direct offer for our specific cases of damages growing out of the revolution would be made; that regarding general claims our demands were acceded to in form though there were some difficulties as to methods which would have to be overcome. He added that the intention of the Government was to pay all damages. Will the Department inform me as to whether an official confirmation of this will meet its demands. In the meantime I shall continue to insist upon an international commission.
