9. Although Colombian flotilla is only 4 days distance from Leticia, Peru’s attitude remains unaltered. As Brazil desires to leave no means unemployed for maintaining continental peace, she proposes to circularize tomorrow all the American powers requesting them to make representations in Lima individually for maintenance thereof.
Please telegraph today whether you approve Brazil’s intention.
Repeated to Lima.
Morgan
