Department of State,
Washington, July 27, 1915—5 p.m.

Action reported in your July 22, 5 p.m., is commended. In view of the latest evidence of this Government’s friendly interest the Department confidently hopes for an early cessation of all disorders and expects that diversion of funds will not be repeated. To this end you should continue to impress upon the Government of President Jiménes the necessity for a conservative and careful disbursement of revenues.
