The Acting Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Chile (Culbertson)

31. Your 41, March 16, 10 a.m. Mr. Cady’s report envisages a port with docks that ships can tie to and discharge cargo and not merely a lighterage port as at other places along the coast. He states such a port can be built at San José for three and a half million dollars and Mr. Cady’s company is willing to contract to construct it for that sum.
