Reported Pr0tecforate Creates Great
Excitement In Washington.
Washington, May 1.-THE PROPOSE
ton ascribed to President Diaz that
the United States and Mexico should
establish joint protectorate over a un-
Ion of Central American States has
caused great commotion among the
Latin-American diplomatic representa-
tive here today.
Today Senior Salvo, the Costa Rican
minister. DR.. Mejia, the Salvadorean
minister, and Senior Toledo Herrarte.
the Guatemalan minister. called in
body at the State Department to dis
cuss the subject with the officials. They
had no news or instructions from their
own governments as to the attitude
they should assume but they were es-
pecially DESTROYS of learning what ad-
vices the State Department had on the
subject.
There was nothing of an official char
acter to enlfghten them and IL did not
develop that the American government
had SO far had any exchanges with the
government of Mexico beyond those
involved In the common effort to bring
about a termination of the hostilfties
that had. existed between Honduras and
Salvador and Nicaragua. An incident
to the conclusion of the treaty OF
Amalapa was the agreement between
named that a conference should be held
later on in Nicaragua to insure the con-
tinuance of peace in Central America.
Details of the agreement have mot
vet reached the State Department, but
it is surmised that there is no obstacle
to the adhesion of Guatemala and Costa
RIGA to the formar agreement. which
may be reached by the projected con-
ference. Thus in effect would be
formed what would amount to a con-
ference of the Central American States,
though each of the elements might
preserve its individuality and It's own
government.
1t was pointed out by one of the
Central American citizens that already,
owing to the common laws existing In
the little republics, the freedom with
which citizenship would be exchanged

systems and the existence of reciprocal
trade arrangements. long steps have
of the five Central American States,
though politically they were still
apart, and in the opinion of all the
Central Americans, they could not be
brought together by the exertion of
external force.
It Is said that an American protec-
torate over such a loose confederation,
singly or in combination with Mexico,
is entirely out of the question, the ex-
ecutive branch of the government be-
ing without authority to enter upon
such arrangement. even If 1t so de-
sired, but there does not seem to be
any reason to suppose the State depart
ment is inclined to change its policy
in the matter of constantly endeavoring
by moral persuasion to conserve the
peace in Central America
