y Whereas the arrangements set forth in tn,

substitute for the protection heretofore extern
ded by Great Britain to the Mosquito Island
b and whereas some or the other or both Of th,
b contracting parties may find in the condition 0
their political relations with the Republic O
/ Nicaragua obstacles to prevent an immediat
execution of the said arrangements. Now

be ton by canal or railroad their protection Ia
so been or shall be extended, may be further as
y" sured by some definite arrangement on tW
other questions which have come into discui
sion.

be and on the south by the river Sarstoon, W;
its not and is not embraced in the treaty enteTl
ia into by the contracting parties on the 18Th ds
