The Chargé in Peru (Sterling) to the Secretary of State

[Paraphrase]

3. English translation of previous note of acceptance withdrawn and new substitute note received. The number and date are the same, and with the deletion of the phrase “adjusted by the Government [Page 460] of the United States” the phraseology of the two notes is exactly the same.

I believe that the Peruvian Government would be gratified if neither note were published, and if possible I urge that their wishes be respected.
