File No. 812.512/891.

Mr. Parker, representing American interests in Mexico, to the Secretary of State.

[Telegram.]

151. Many individual miners of the American colony are requesting to be [omission] result of the representations made by the Department with regard to mining taxes. They say that unless more favorable action by the de facto government is brought about before the end of this month, great sacrifices will be entailed upon foreign properties in Mexico. Will the Department please furnish me with such information as it may desire to make known at this time?

Parker.
