between the two nations and will prove
to you how earnestly the Government

plenipotentiary to negotiate treaty OF
navigation and commerce pursuant with
the agreement OF December, 1905. be-

The friendly arrangement OF one Of

stantly becoming firmer. as is proved by
navigation signed on January 2s.
