PEACE IN CENTRAL AMERICA
HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF
AMONG THE REPUBLICS.
Second Time in Three Years the
United States and Mexico
Have INTERVIEWED.

History repeated itself in less than three
years in the efforts made recently by the
United States and Mexico to maintain
peace in Central America.
During the summer of 1906 both coun-
tries resorted to the same step, and the in
teresting correspondence OH the part of
this government in that direction is dis
closed in the diplomatic correspondence
just made public by the State Depart
ment. Guatemala and Salvador already
had begun hostilities in which apparently
Honduras had also become involved when
through the cooperation of Presidents
Roosevelt and Diaz peace was brought
about. The President was emphatic i'll
his appeal to the presidents of Guatemala
and Salvador to take immediate steps to
ward settling questions pending between
them.
the President said that his action had
the full concurrence of the President of
Mexico. lie offered the deck of the
American warship Marblehead as a neu-
trail place where representatives of the
two governments could meet to consider
the terms OF an agreement. This offer was
accepted an armistice was arranged, and
treaty made. Later in the same year
this was followed by general treaty of
peace, amity, arbitration, commerce, etc,
between the republics OF Costa RIGA, Sal
vador. Guatemala and Honduras In De-
cember. 1907, the various Central Amer
lean republics entered into general
treaty of peace and amity in which they
bound themselves to always observe the
most complete harmony and decide every
difference difficulty that might arise
among them by means of the Central
American court of justice.
The recent military activity in Mica
ragua. resulting from which fear was ex
pressed of hostile intent against Salvador
and Costa Rica, came in view of the pro-
testations at the Washington treaty with
good deal of surprise and disappoint-
ment to this government. Administration
officials realize that the Central Amer
lean problem Is one that will have to be
solved IL peace is to be preserved and the
interests of the republics guaranteed.
