The Ambassador in Peru (Moore) to the Secretary of State
[Received 4:05 p.m.]
88. President Leguia and Ambassador Figueroa met this morning and agreed on all points of the proposed treaty except the wording of the clause referring to the boundary line. Chile changed the reading of it but claimed it did not change the sense. President Leguia said he was not altogether convinced and has sent for his engineers. If they decide this clause does not alter the sense of the agreement he will give me a copy of it tonight which I will transmit immediately to you in translation. He will send a copy to his Ambassador in Washington tomorrow for official presentation to you.
