The Peruvian Minister ( De Freyre) to the Secretary of State
[Received July 29.]
Sir: I am instructed by my Government to advise you, as I hereby have the honor to do, that my Government has resolved to terminate the administration it had established at the Casa Grande Sugar Plant, in view of the fact that the owners of the Estate do not seem prepared to give the Peruvian administrator full power to dispose of the property in the unconditional form required by the Government of the United States.
I have furthermore the honor to inform you that, in conformity with what was agreed in the matter, the net earnings of the Plant, proceeding from sales effected under my Government’s administration, will be deposited in the Caja de Depósitos y Consignaciones.1
Accept [etc.]
