The Minister in Nicaragua (Lane) to the Secretary of State
[Received 3 p.m.]
26. My 25, January 23, 2 p.m. Minister for Foreign Affairs Arguello who returned yesterday from Montevideo informed me this morning that arrangements had been definitely made with Governments of Honduras and Guatemala for recognition by the three Governments of El Salvador tomorrow morning, January 25. He said that to give the recognition “a more solemn character” President Sacasa [Page 251] will, apart from sending telegram to General Martínez, issue a formal decree announcing recognition and referring to adherence of Nicaragua to the principles of treaty of 1923.
Dr. Arguello stated that it is probable that conference to discuss revision of treaty will probably meet in Guatemala.
Repeated to Guatemala and Tegucigalpa.
