The Acting Secretary of State to the Minister in Ecuador (Hartman)
In the report of the Minister of Finance regarding the public debt which appeared in La Nation of November 23, the Minister charges that the administration of the Railroad has not been upon an economic basis, etc. Is the Department not correct then in its understanding [Page 200] that no differences exist at present between the Government and the Railroad?
Department’s instruction No. 225 of October 24 [4].
You will request an answer from the Ecuadoran Government at its earliest convenience.
