PANAMA, Marcn Zi.-Ine peruvian MIL
lister of Foreign Affairs. replying to the
protest of England against the clause in
the treaty of peace between Chilli and Peru,
at ceding the nitrate and guano beds to
Chill, which England claimed to guarantee
the payment of the Peruvian debt, says in
substance that Peru wishes the negotia-
tions of the treaty acted on by virtue of
the right she possessed in behalf of the
Governments right acknowledged from
the moment of her independence by all
nations, and she cannot consent to any
foreign interference without wounding
her rights as a sovereign and indie
pendent State, and without Indicating or
~jeopardizing these prerogatives which
she had always respected in other nations,
80 that she has not to consult with them
regarding her treaties, lest she might en-
danger the loss Of her W proper exist
ence. The debts originated from being
effected with private parties, regarding
whose nationality the Government never
thought proper to inquire, as those debts
have never assumed an international char
acter. Although they may now be partly
held in English bonds, yet at any time
they may be transferred to persons
Of any other nationality. Peru
owes nothing to England as q Gov
eminent or State, and consequently the
loans referred to cannot be made subject
to diplomatic interference. 1t is a matter

the mortgaged property has not been in
the possession Of Peru, yet during that
