The Minister in Honduras (Morales) to the Secretary of State
[Received 11:40 p.m.]
93. The Guatemalan Minister acting as the representative of Arias made a proposition to Carias for an arrangement between the two on the basis that Arias be the President. Carias refused to entertain the proposal.
[Page 445]The President requested my opinion yesterday relative to the advisability of holding a conference with the three candidates for the purpose of trying to effect a satisfactory solution of the question agreeable to all. I heartily approved of the plan.
There is no immediate danger of a revolution from either Carias or Arias and I believe that if no arrangement can be effected among the candidates that they will await the decision of Congress before resorting to arms.
Repeated to Guatemala.
