that right cloak and cover for warlike expe-
ditiOn against its government Your instructions
do not authorize you to act arbitrarily upon mere
suspicion. You will not seize an American vessel or
bring her into port, the force under your COM
mand to prevent her landing her passengers, upon
suspicion. You will be careful not to interfere
with lawful commerce. But where you find that an

expedition enterprise from the territories or
jurisdiction of the United States against the terri
tories of Mexico, Nicaragua Costa Rica, contrary
to the 9th section Of the act of Congress of April 90
