He reached this decision shortly be

instructed Secretary Hay to dispatch;
note to the British embassy at once

now be referred to The Hague tri

of The Hague tribunal may not be
handed down for some months. The
tribunal also will decide the vital
question to South American states as
to whether blockades and lombard

treatment at the hands of their debtor.
Coming from The Hague, it will es'

The Hague would add a new canon 10
