ing more than three hours At this
sitting not only the present relations

to the economic questions, such as the

or otherwise, could be obtained from
the delegation as to the progress that
was made during the conference, nor

that they were satisfied. While it is
believed by the United States officials
who were present at the conference
that everything that could possibly be
explained by this government had been
gone into, yet if the Cubans desire to
make further inquiries they will be
given the opportunity. 1t is believed
