The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Mexico ( Daniels )
48. Personal for the Ambassador. Your No. 77, March 27, 9 a.m. The Mexican Ambassador was confidentially apprised of the proposed action and statement of the Treasury Department on Friday afternoon.89 It is my opinion that the proposed procedure is more conciliatory in nature than cessation of silver purchases without any explanatory statement.
[Page 36 [736]]My telegram 47, March 27, 2 p.m.,90 which crossed your telegram under reference, stating that the publication of the note will be withheld for the time being and authorizing you to come to Washington for consultation after delivery of the note would seem to cover your present inquiry.
