The Deputy Attorney General of the State of New York (Conklin) to the Secretary of State

In the matter of the attachment issued against the property of the Mexican Government by the Oliver Trading Company I am advised by the attorneys, Zabriskie, Sage, Kerr, and Gray that pursuant to the suggestion contained in your telegram to Governor Miller, as they interpret it, they are willing to vacate the attachment so far as it pertains to the property of the Mexican Consular General in New York. They desire me to state that at no time has the attachment been of such a character as to necessitate the suspension of his functions by the Consular General.

I shall telephone you Saturday morning with further explanation and shall await your advice as to whether the relief above outlined will be sufficient.

Robert S. Conklin
