II would not be advisable for the government Of the
United States nterposs with its friendly offices at that
time, And am informed that recently the af,re
said representative suggested 10 Secretary Of STATE
that the would be embarrassing to the allies,
for hat ths Of their refusal accept the pro-
posed mediation, j. might be charged 10 ambitious de-
sres On their part in the continuance Of war Perhaps
